Chapter Eleven: Unrighteous Gains

Seeing that the scribe was finally about to confess, Adou nodded with satisfaction and put away the sword.

"I don't know who sent someone to kill you!" said the scribe.

After hearing this, Adou's eyes appeared in murderous intent, and the scholar also captured the murderous intent and hurriedly added: "Don't kill me, I really don't know. We have never seen that person, but I can tell you how we traded!"

Seeing the scribe's terrified expression, Adou knew that the scribe did not tell lies. This scribe really didn't know the identity of the person who bought the person who murdered him.

The scholar slowly spoke, "Some day ago, Yan Gui, the second son of the Yan family in Ba County, sent someone to find us three brothers, saying that there was a big business for us, and asked us that we could not do it. The Yan family had introduced us to a lot of business before, so this time we heard about the big business, of course we did it. So the Yan family gave us a map and asked us to look for it along the map." As he said that, the scholar took out a map from his arms and handed it to Adou.

Adou took the map and before he could open it, he heard the scribe continue, "We looked for the place given on the map and found that it was a big tree outside Chengdu. We found a letter in the tree hole, which said that five thousand golds were asked to kill one!"

Adou frowned. Five thousand gold is not a small amount. You should know that when Liu Bei started his business in Zhuo County, there were only 500 silvers to recruit soldiers. Now this person has paid 5 thousand gold, which is really a big deal.

"What's going on below?" A Dou asked.

"Of course we took on this business. Then the man put half of the deposit in the tree hole and asked us to get it at noon. The deposit is here, and our brothers have not moved yet!" The scribe pointed to the box in front.

Adou walked over and opened the box. There were indeed gold bars neatly placed inside.

Adou picked up a gold bar and put it in his hand and turned it to determine that it was indeed full of gold and had no adulteration.

Adou frowned and then asked, "Then, if you kill me, how can you report to them and get another 2,500 gold?"

"They said that after the matter was done, they just need to put the young master's head back to the tree hole. After they found out that they were the ones, they would put the remaining money into the tree hole!" the scribe continued.

Adou nodded. Although the scholar didn't know who wanted to kill him, he had a clue, and maybe he could follow this clue and find the black hand who had been plotting against him behind the scenes.

Thinking of this, Adou looked at the scribe: "Since you said everything, I will spare your life!" After that, Adou ignored the scribes on the ground and turned around and walked outside.

Just as he turned around, a strange smile appeared on the scribe's face. At the moment when Adou was carrying the scribe's scribe, the scribe suddenly moved. A dagger suddenly slipped out of the scribe's sleeve and threw it towards Adou's back.

Seeing that the dagger was about to fly to the back of A Dou's heart, A Dou seemed to have eyes behind him. A Dou's body suddenly moved, dodged the flying dagger, and then turned around and a sword. A blood mark suddenly appeared on the scholar's neck.

The attack that seemed to be determined to win was broken by Adou. The scholar covered his neck with his hands and fell down unwillingly.

As a master of a generation, A Dou would not be so stupid to leave behind the enemy. Moreover, this scholar is also a murderous thief. It will only continue to harm people. In terms of reason, A Dou is not going to leave this person's life. But just now, I said that as long as the scholar confesses, the scholar's life will be left behind. Although there are only two people here, if A Dou repents, A Dou really does not have such a thick face. So A Dou deliberately turned around and left this flaw, and at the same time, he could also kill the scholar with justification.

Looking at the corpse of the scribe on the ground, Adou smiled slightly. He saw Adou turn around and pick up the box of gold, then walk towards the backyard.

This is the thief's nest of the three evil spirits in Ba County. According to A Dou's experience in his previous life, there must be thief stolen goods hidden in the thief's nest.

Liu Chan was a hero of a generation in his previous life, but heroes also needed to eat. Although Liu Chan was behind him, the huge figure like the Wudang Sect did not mean that Liu Chan had endless money. So Liu Chan would naturally take on some private work on weekdays, which included protecting some important figures and pursuing some thieves. Every time he caught a thief, the thief's stolen money naturally became a masterless fortune. For masterless wealth, Liu Chan would naturally put it in his pocket. Anyway, it was an ill-gotten fortune, so don't be in vain.

I saw Adou coming to the support with a familiarity, then rummaging through the cabinets, and knocking on the floor from time to time. After a while, Adou found several secret walls and found a large pile of gold, silver and jewelry, enough to fill two large boxes.

...

Adou came outside Chengdu with a box in his arms. According to the map, the tree should be nearby.

There will naturally be no heads in the box in Adou's hand. Early this morning, Adou bought half a pig's head in the market and put it in the box. Adou was about to put the box in the tree hole, and then wait for the person who wanted to kill him to come and inspect the goods, so that the envoy behind the scenes could be drawn out.

At this moment, Adou felt a person behind him looking at him. Adou hurriedly looked back and found that there was a person in the distance behind him, which was Fazheng, the prefect of Shu County!

Today, Fa Zheng was wearing a casual outfit, but he still had a sword around his waist. At this time, Fa Zheng found that Adou saw him and hurriedly walked towards Adou.

"Young Master, why are you here? It's very dangerous here! Come with me!" Fa Zheng said, pulling Adou and leaving.

"What the hell is going on?" A Dou asked.

"Young master, I recently received a report that the three evil spirits of Ba County, the thief in Shu, will appear here. The three evil spirits of Ba County will do all kinds of evil. I have sent someone to set up a net of heaven and earth here, and I will wait for the three evil spirits of Ba County to be arrested!" Fa Zheng said.

A Dou instantly understood that this must be done by the mastermind. If the three evil spirits of Bajun killed him and brought his head here with him and happened to be caught by Fa Zheng, then the three evil spirits of Bajun would undoubtedly die, and the mastermind would not be exposed.

Suddenly, Adou thought that there was also the Yan family among them. What should he do if the three evil spirits of Ba County offer the Yan family?

Thinking of this, Adou asked, "Master Fa, who gave this news?"

"It was given to me by the Yan family of Ba County! The three evil spirits of Ba County are a major harm in Shu. The Yan family has wanted to kill them for a long time!" Fa Zheng said.

At this time, A Dou finally understood that the Yan family took the initiative to report the three evil spirits of Ba County. In this way, even if the three evil spirits of Ba County confessed to the Yan family, the Yan family could bite back and say that it was the three evil spirits of Ba County who hated him, so they deliberately said that the Yan family was involved in killing A Dou, so as to frame the Yan family! Or, the Yan family had already arranged other personnel and prepared to silence them!

From this point of view, this clue outside Chengdu City has been cut off, and the only clue now is the Yan family in Bajun.
