The Night Watchman of Another World: I know a lot of things

Late at night, gambling in the gambling house.

At this moment, Xu Caikun was holding the door of the gambling house, struggling, looking at the dark street outside the gambling house, and was secretly frightened in his heart.

There are two worlds separated by a door. Perhaps this is one of the characteristics of this world.

The gambling house was brightly lit and crowded with people, and many gamblers were bleeding from losing so much money.

Outside the gambling house was a dark courtyard with a wall connected to a bleak street. Amid the cries of crows in the treetops, the outside world seemed especially quiet.

"This damn casino doesn't even have a window! You can't even feel the passage of time in there!

I originally thought of quitting while I was ahead and going home after winning some money, but who would have thought that I would be dragged into the middle of the night.

Now, if we force our way through now, we will risk being attacked by evil spirits!"

Xu Caikun felt secretly resentful.

"Mr. Xu, it's already so late now. It's not safe for you to walk at night with such a large sum of money!"

Next to Xu Caikun, a thin man with a rat-like beard spoke in a soft voice.

"Not to mention the evil spirits that wreak havoc at night, just running into a few desperate robbers is dangerous.

Why not take advantage of today's good luck and come in to play a few more rounds. Maybe you can make more money tomorrow morning."

This man's name is Sun Wu. He is a full-time broker of the Doujin Casino, responsible for luring wealthy people to gamble in the casino.

At this moment, Sun Wu's eyes were shining with brilliance, and he stroked his whiskers with his hand, showing an expression that he was not afraid that Xu Caikun would be fooled.

Xu Caikun is the only son of the Xu family in the east of the city.

A few days ago, the backers of Doujin Casino took a fancy to the Xu family's house, saying that the courtyard had good feng shui and wanted to use it as a separate courtyard.

The big boss behind the scenes has ideas, and his subordinates naturally have to share the worries for him.

After spending some effort, Sun Wu finally got in touch with Xu Caikun and lured the young master of the Xu family into his own gambling house.

According to the common routine of the gambling house, they first gave the young master of the Xu family some sweet benefits to lure him into the game.

When he is in high spirits, ask him to slowly spit out what he won.

Most people in this situation would easily get carried away and become furious.

When the time is right, Sun Wu will take advantage of the opportunity to persuade him to borrow money from the gambling house to make a few big bets.

Sun Wu knew very well how painful it was to win and then lose, so he was not afraid that the young master of the Xu family would not agree.

The rest will then be routine operations.

He and the dealer were in cahoots with each other. As long as he fell into the trap, it would be God's blessing if he didn't lose everything.

This tactic has always worked in all of Sun Wu's cases.

Of course, everything went very smoothly this time.

But who would have thought that the young master of the Xu family was not an ordinary person. The fish only bit the bait but did not want to bite the hook. It looked fat and silly and was easy to fool, but it wanted to give up and leave half an hour ago.

Five thousand taels! In order to coax him, his gambling house had laid out a full five thousand taels of bait, but just as he was about to draw his butcher knife, the duck about to be put into the pot wanted to run away!

How is this possible! Do you still have any self-awareness as a gambler?

But now Sun Wu is not afraid anymore. It is so dark that people without some skills dare not walk outside.

I believe the young master of the Xu family can tell which is more important, life or money.

"Let's go, Master Xu. It's not safe to stand at the door. Who knows if there are any evil spirits passing by outside? Come back to the house with me. Let's go kill them while we are still lucky!"

After saying this, Sun Wu dragged Xu Caikun's hand into the gambling house. The several muscular thugs nearby took the opportunity to help, coaxing Xu Caikun to go inside, while preparing to close the small door of the gambling house.

This dragging also made Xu Caikun frightened and confirmed his guess.

His family is in business, so he knows a little bit about all kinds of tricks.

Having followed Sun Wu to the gambling house was originally playing with fire. He thought that this old man surnamed Sun was too annoying to bother him, so he decided to cheat the gambling house and then leave to teach him a lesson.

But if I were dragged in now, I would be seriously injured if I didn't die.

Xu Caikun was trying to pull Sun Wu's hands away and was thinking about how to get out when he saw a dim lantern light slowly passing by the gate of the courtyard.

"When the moon is at its zenith, evil spirits will appear. Only when people rest and lights are turned off can they be safe."

This is the night watchman who is responsible for night patrol!

Upon seeing this, Xu Caikun pushed Sun Wu away and ran out in two steps. He pushed open the gate of the courtyard and saw a dozen young men dressed as night watchmen passing by.

"Brother, hurry up! Do me a favor and take me back to Xu's house in the east of the city! If you don't take me for free, I'll pay you!

Ten taels, not fifty! Hurry up and leave!"

At this moment, Xu Caikun only wanted to leave here as soon as possible. If he was left here, this gambling house would have plenty of ways to trick him.

"Wait! Master Xu, are you in such a hurry to go home?

Have you ever thought that relying on such a small night watchman to escort you, I'm afraid you will be killed along the way!

Listen to my advice, it's better for you to stay here, it's safer here.

Besides, you want to run away after winning the money, but you don’t even give us a chance to get our money back. I’m afraid it won’t sound good if people tell others about it. This is against the rules.”

Sun Wu's voice sounded from behind, and then he raised his hand and said to the younger man.

“Boy, don’t you know that some money is hot and some things are life-threatening?

You dare to do any job here? Get out of here now!"

The night watchman who came was Yang Qing.

"It's no problem to send you home, but it seems that your money is not easy to earn. Fifty taels is too little, and it can't even buy a dirty bead."

"One Filthy Pearl! No, two! Take me away now!"

Seeing Sun Wu speaking so aggressively, Xu Caikun knew that this was the prelude to a showdown, so he immediately used his money skills.

"Deal! Master Xu, right? Just follow me and keep a good distance. Our destination is the Xu Mansion in the east of the city!"

Yang Qing completely ignored Sun Wu and prepared to leave with Xu Caikun.

Looking at the two people going away, Sun Wu's face turned pale, and he said to the thugs beside him: "Tell two of them to follow me, I will report to the Third Master."

After saying that, he turned and rushed towards the inner courtyard of the gambling house.

In the alley, Yang Qing was still walking leisurely in front, and one step behind him, Xu Caikun followed carefully.

"Master Xu, don't get so close to me!

It's late at night, and evil spirits often appear suddenly. I'm afraid I might accidentally hurt you if I encounter one!"

Xu Caikun smiled awkwardly when he heard this: "What's your name, brother?"

"Just call me Yang Qing."

"Brother Yang, if we really run into an evil spirit, are you sure you can take me away?"

"What can I say about this thing? If we are unlucky and encounter a level 2 or higher evil spirit, we will both be doomed."

"I heard that you have those communication fireworks that can summon those night watchmen who specialize in killing evil spirits. Can you set one off in advance? I'll pay for it."

"Heh, the night watchman in charge of this area is called Xing Hu. If we dare to launch communication fireworks without encountering any evil spirits, believe me, he will be more terrifying than the evil spirits.

Also, how much money did you win in the casino this time? Looks like you have to pay more for your escort fee, as there seem to be two people following us now."

"Two! How did you know?" Xu Caikun looked back at the dark street behind him.

"Of course I heard it." Yang Qing pointed to his ears. He was a cultivator and his hearing was much stronger than that of ordinary people.

"Hasn't the price been agreed upon before?"

"Yes, but that's the price for sending you home. It doesn't include the price of removing your tail. Otherwise, I would have to risk offending a gambling house to get two Filthy Pearls. This deal would be too bad."

"So how much do you want to add?"

"I'll give you one Filthy Trace Pearl each. After all, humans don't drop Filthy Trace Pearls."

“…Too expensive!”

"It's not expensive. The casino has sent people to stop you. It shows that you have won a lot. It's just a few Filthy Pearls. It should be a piece of cake for you!"

"Okay, then you help me deal with them first, and I'll give them to you later." Xu Caikun thought about it for a moment and agreed.

"Okay, help me carry the lantern and keep going. I'll be right back."

After saying that, Yang Qing handed the lantern in his hand to Xu Caikun, and then disappeared into the darkness.
