Siheyuan: Starting from Building a Village

When Lao Wu and Xiao Fang found Hou Si, he was still sleeping at home. Ever since the last incident with Ma Dashan, he had become well behaved. He would look for work to do every day. If there was work, he would work hard, and if there was no work, he would go home to sleep.

Without saying a word, he told everyone about Ma Liu's underground casino.

Following Lao Wu and Xiao Fang to the police station, all the personnel had been deployed. Led by Jiang Zhengyi and the head of the security department of the steel rolling mill, they went to Ma Liu's underground casino.

At this time, Jia Dongxu and Hao Ren had already arrived at Ma Liu's casino.

When he saw Ma Liu, Hao Ren was visibly stunned. Ma Liu's face looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Before Jia Dongxu could introduce them, Hao Ren tentatively said, "The gods determine everything."

Ma Liu subconsciously replied: "The iron words determine life and death."

Hao Ren exclaimed: "Old Immortal?"

When he heard the words "old immortal", Ma Liu paused for a moment. He couldn't remember how many years it had been since he last used this title.

Jia Dongxu was stunned on the spot, and couldn't help but wonder if there were really such coincidences in the world?

"you are?"

Ma Liu looked at the person in front of him, thought and thought, but did not have the slightest impression of him.

"I still remember the old immortal's demeanor vividly."

"Please forgive Ma Liu for his poor eyesight."

"Old Immortal, I have long admired your name. Now that I have met you today, please tell me what my fate is like."

"Well, since you are Xiao Jia's friend, I will tell you the truth. Those are all lies."

"Old Immortal, you are too modest."

"I'm not being modest. You're Xiao Jia's friend, so we're not strangers. My greatest strength is that I don't lie to my own people."

After Ma Liu finished speaking, he touched his bald head with his hand, with what he thought was a sincere smile on his face.

"No, I heard from others that you can call out the names of people you have never met, and you can also count how many people there are in your family, and even everything that has happened in your family."

Hao Ren did not give up. He believed in the hexagram very much.

"Hahaha, my friend, that was all found out in advance. Besides, if I had that ability, would I have to work so hard and run an underground casino in such fear and anxiety?"

"No way, you lied to me, this is not true, it's not true."

Hao Ren couldn't believe that what he had firmly believed in for so many years turned out to be a lie, and he couldn't accept it for a while.

If all this is fake, then what is this? Since then, I have started to indulge myself, wasting my best years, eating, drinking, gambling, cheating, and learning everything. Many people have even died in my hands.

My life has gone in another direction and now there is no turning back.

"Brother Hao?"

"Xiao Jia, don't worry, I'm fine."

Hao Ren gave Jia Dongxu a reassuring look.

"Old Immortal, do you still have your old outfits? Can you dress me up to fulfill my old dream?"

“Hahaha, my friend, this…”

Ma Liu smiled, looked at Hao Ren, and kept rubbing his hands.

Hao Ren understood and asked Jia Dongxu to count out the hundred yuan.

"My friend, be generous. Wait a moment."

I still have my old outfit, so I can earn a hundred dollars by simply dressing up. This business is worth doing.

After a while, Ma Liu, who was wearing a Taoist robe, a wig and a bun, walked out from the back with a calm expression. He stood in front of Hao Ren, Jia Dongxu and others and said to himself: "The gods can predict the fate of the world and make accurate judgments on life and death."

He was seen stroking his white beard with one hand and holding a Pingjin banner with the other, on which were written four large characters: The Ma Yi Shen Xiang.

Hao Ren was a little excited: "Is it really you?"

"Hahaha."

Ma Liu was very proud, he made a lot of money with this outfit. He clearly remembered that he had cheated a young man with a rich family in a county in a city in Hebei Province and got the biggest sum of money in his life.

It was given to him as a gift by the young man after he sold his property.

It was with that money that he returned to the old city, transformed himself into the Sixth Master of East City, set up an underground casino, and lived a very happy life.

Ma Liu asked proudly, "How about this outfit? It's pleasing to my friends."

"Old Immortal, my wish has been fulfilled. Today I will give you this heirloom of mine."

Hao Ren took out a long, thin object wrapped in cowhide from his arms and held it in front of Ma Liu with both hands.

"what is this?"

"Old Immortal, please open it and take a look."

"Then I won't be polite?"

"please."

Hao Ren lowered his head, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.

When Ma Liu lifted the black cloth, what appeared before his eyes was a dagger, a dagger without a sheath.

"This is?"

"Please ask the old immortal to come on the road."

In a flash, Hao Ren flipped his right hand and grasped the dagger. In front of everyone's horrified gaze, he stabbed it into Ma Liu's chest without hesitation.

"You..why?"

"My last name is Hao."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hao Ren pulled out a dagger, and taking advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned, he wantonly killed Ma Liu's men.

"Cause..Result..Retribution."

After uttering these four words with difficulty, Ma Liu closed his eyes forever.

"Brother Hao, don't kill me."

Jia Dongxu was so scared that he pissed himself. It happened so fast that he had no time to react before Hao Ren had already completed a pentakill.

"Xiao Jia, don't be afraid. You and I are brothers. How could I kill you?"

Hao Ren wiped the dagger clean, wrapped it in cowhide again, and put it in his arms.

"Brother Hao, what should we do now?"

Jia Dongxu was no longer afraid. Even if he was afraid, it was useless. With Hao Ren's skills, it would be easy for him to kill him.

It was only now that Jia Dongxu realized that he didn't know Hao Ren well enough. Hao Ren had shown his strong skills since last night. Jia Dongxu could only follow Hao Ren to the end.

"Pack up your money and run."

"Oh, I know."

The two men began to search. Fortunately, the place was not too big, and all of Ma Liu's gambling capital was searched by the two men. They stripped a piece of clothing from the dead man, packed up the money and a few small yellow croakers, and asked Jia Dongxu to carry them.

"Sixth Master, are you there?"

The sudden sound startled Hao Ren and Jia Dongxu.

"Brother Hao, it's Hou Si. I remember his voice."

"Trick him into coming in."

At this time, you must not panic. You should trick people in first.

"Fourth brother, Sixth Master is still resting, just come in."

Jia Dongxu's voice spread out.

Jiang Zhengyi nodded and followed Hou Si to the door. He wanted to go in and check out the situation inside.

"Smell of blood? Not good, retreat quickly."

Hou Si, who was dragged away, was still confused. How come he didn't smell the blood?

Jiang Zhengyi pulled Hou Si to find a cover and made a gesture at the same time.

Old Wu and Xiao Fang quickly came to Jiang Zhengyi to discuss countermeasures, and the others, under the arrangement of the security chief, quickly completed the siege.

"not good."

Hao Ren was shocked when he heard the rustling sound coming from outside the house.
