Fan Xiaodao's half-raised wine glass stopped in mid-air.

He looked at Tang Bufan, who smiled sincerely and spoke in a frank tone. However, he didn't expect that the so-called "troubling" in his mouth was to kill him.

Fan Xiaodao put down his wine glass and scratched his head, "If I remember correctly, I just came to Tianliang City and I didn't make any enemies."

Tang Bufan sighed with emotion, "Life is impermanent."

"How valuable is my life?"

Tang Bufan stretched out a finger.

"Ten thousand taels?"

Tang Bufan shook his head, "No, a coffin."

Fan Xiaodao was confused, "A coffin?"

Tang Bufan said: "Yes, the other party promised me that as long as they can kill you, they will give me a high-quality coffin!"

This brain circuit made Fan Xiaodao even more confused.

Tang Bufan explained: "Do you know, in Tianliang City, apart from restaurants and casinos, what is the most popular business?"

Fan Xiaodao shook his head.

Tang Bufan said: "It's a coffin shop. The rich people in Tianliang will prepare a good coffin for themselves. I grew up in a poor family and had no money to buy one. Now that someone is giving it to me, this deal is certainly a good deal."

"Sending a coffin is unlucky."

"No. We Tianliang people are not taboo about this. People may die, either today or tomorrow. If you don't have a good coffin, you will be embarrassed to say hello to others when you get there!"

Fan Xiaodao was speechless.

He smiled and said, "Since you want to kill me, then go ahead."

Tang Bufan pointed to the street outside.

Fan Xiaodao asked, "What?"

Tang Bufan said: "Go outside. If you break something here, you can't afford to pay for it!"

Pay attention to people!

Unexpectedly, this young man who looked so sunny always had all kinds of strange reasons. Fan Xiaodao ducked onto the street. When everyone in the restaurant heard someone fighting, they stopped talking about various topics and looked at each other.

They were all placed on Fan Xiaodao and Tang Bufan.

They have long been accustomed to the armed fighting in Tianliang City.

But there is a lot of fun to watch, isn’t it the best dish to go with wine?

Tang Bufan pulled out the fast sword from his waist.

Three feet of clear front, two boards, and one person.

Tang Bufan said: "I have a nickname, Kuai Jian Tang Bufan, so my sword is very fast and I kill people very quickly. We are so destined, and for the sake of you buying me a drink, I will let you go."

No pain."

"Then I have to thank you."

There was a crisp sound.

Tang Bufan, the fast sword, arrived in front of Fan Xiaodao with one arrow step. The sword's edge was like lightning and slid towards Fan Xiaodao's throat.

Fan Xiaodao raised his sword and put it away.

Tang Bufan's men had passed by Fan Xiaodao, and his moves were not blocked at all, but the sword in his hand was completely broken.

Tang Bufan looked at the hilt of his sword and threw it on the ground, "Let's go, keep drinking!"

Fan Xiaodao asked, "No more fighting?"

Tang Bufan said: "If you can't beat me, why are you still fighting? You haven't finished drinking yet, why don't you keep drinking?"

Fan Xiaodao also found it interesting and returned to his seat. He became very interested in the young man in front of him, as if killing people to make trouble was just a business to him.

Tang Bufan poured a glass of wine for Fan Xiaodao, "There is no justice in business. I respect you for this glass of wine!" After that, he drank it all.

Fan Xiaodao said: "Who told you to kill me?"

Tang Bufan said: "We troublemakers have professional ethics. We use people's money to help others eliminate disasters. More importantly, we protect the privacy of our customers. This is our basic ethics."

Fan Xiaodao said to the waiter: "Another three kilograms of soju will be charged to Kuai Jian Tang's account."

Tang Bufan quickly stood up and said, "You can't do this to me. Besides, if you charge my account, the restaurant won't do it."

"Why?"

The waiter said: "As of today, he owes our restaurant thirty-seven taels and five cents."

Tang Bufan's face turned red, "What are you yelling about? I will find a way to repay the money I owe you. If you have to tell me, isn't it obvious that it will embarrass me?"

The waiter was also unkind to him, "You don't feel embarrassed even if you don't pay for meals, but are you afraid that others won't do it?"

Tang Bufan discussed with Fan Xiaodao: "I originally thought of using the coffin to pay off the debt, but the deal went south. How about you help me clear the debt and I do something for you?"

Fan Xiaodao said: "You want to kill me, but I still want to help you pay off the debt. What's the point of this?"

Tang Bufan said seriously: "I'm killing you because it's business. Not every business can be done, but meeting someone you can drink with is a rare thing. If you help me pay off the debt, you are my employer."

, I can help you settle many things in Tianliang City from now on."

Fan Xiaodao nodded, "I almost forgot, you are a professional troublemaker."

He took out five gold leaves and threw them to the waiter. Tang Bufan kept shouting, "We don't need that much," and followed the waiter to the counter. He asked for another dozen taels of silver, put it in his arms, and put the wine on the table.

He drank it all and said, "Let's go!"

"where to?"

Tang Bufan said: "You will know when the time comes."

The two of them left the restaurant, and Tang Bufan took him to a long street at the back. On the street were a variety of coffin shops, more than a dozen in total, and he stopped at the door of one of them.

Tiandiren Coffin Shop!

A huge coffin stood at the door, with a sentence written on it, "Everyone deserves a beautiful coffin!"

"Why did you bring me here?"

Tang Bufan said: "Don't you want to ask who wants to kill you? Of course I have to find out the news from here when I take the job here." He stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Old boy!"

No one inside responded.

"Maybe someone is asleep."

Tang Bufan said: "They all sleep during the day, and business is busy at night."

The door is ajar.

After a few more pats, Tang Bufan noticed something was wrong and immediately became alert. Pushing the door open, he saw a partially covered coffin in the lobby. Tang Bufan pushed the coffin open and saw a middle-aged man lying inside the coffin.

people.

Tang Bufan stepped forward to test, but the other party had no breath.

"died?"

Fan Xiaodao asked, "What is this?"

"He is the owner of the coffin shop, my upline and agent, and I receive all my tasks from him."

Fan Xiaodao touched it and found that the other person's body was still warm. It was obvious that he had just died not long ago. There were no signs of a fight in the room, and there was blood seeping from the corners of his mouth.

It is not difficult to guess that after Tang Bufan failed in his mission, the other party killed his supervisor in order to silence him.

He has no enemies here. Who wants him dead?

Tianliang horse thief?

Not very likely.

Jiuyouke had made an appointment with him on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month to meet in Tianliang. Now that the date has not yet come, the other party cannot possibly send someone to kill him.

Dongchang?

Lin Yuan was already in Tianliang and had a grudge against him. However, they came here to hunt down Li Yi. Even if they wanted to attack him, they would not look for someone like Tang Bufan.

Tang Bufan frowned.

The death of Lao Dan deeply touched him.

"The old man is always cautious in his actions and rarely accepts jobs that he is not sure about. I felt a little unusual when I accepted your job today. I just made a mistake and he was silenced. He clearly didn't want to expose his identity.

"

Fan Xiaodao said: "How did you know I would come to Tianliang?"

Tang Bufan said: "This afternoon, the old man came to me and said that there was an outsider at Tianxiang Inn. He also gave me a portrait of you and asked me to get rid of you, and he would give me a high-quality coffin. Once you

When I entered the inn, I set my sights on you. But I didn’t expect that your martial arts skills are much more powerful than what the intelligence said.”

The two men carried the old man out and carefully examined the cause of his death.
