Chapter 268: The old name is Hanako
Tang Yuan stayed in Wuxing County for a few days, the purpose was also to learn more about the specific situation of the Sea Shark Gang, but at this stage, he had no intention of provoking this Hanzhou behemoth.
A few days later, Tang Yuan said goodbye to Sikong Hao and Yan Song, and this time he rushed to Wuxing County mainly hoping to get help from the two, but he didn't expect that Qin Beixiong had already sent a letter, which made him extremely surprised.
However, on the other hand, it can also be seen that Qin Bei is ambitious, and borrowing him to pave the way for his two apprentices is a dangerous move and an opportunity.
Of course, this move is exactly what he wants, so as not to make him have to talk more, but it saves him a lot of trouble.
After leaving Wuxing County, Tang Yuan did not return to Hanzhou City as soon as possible, but disguised himself and observed in the port of the Sea Shark Gang, which surprised him that the Sea Shark Gang did not say anything in Hanzhou, and there was no obstacle in doing anything.
According to the laws of the imperial court, generally involving shipping must have six doors before they can be released, but in Hanzhou, this law is in vain, and shipping has always been in the hands of the sea shark gang, and the six doors are difficult to shake.
The main altar of the Sea Shark Gang was built near the largest port in Haizhou, which is known as the largest port in Daqian, and the entire port is owned by itself, which is also one of the important reasons for the rapid rise of the Sea Shark Gang.
The Sea Shark Gang can be so rampant in Hanzhou, if there is no one in the court, Tang Yuan will not believe it.
A small town adjacent to Wuxing County, said to be a small town, its scale is not smaller than a male city, this town knows the place where the disciples of the Sea Shark Gang gather, thanks to the sea shark gang shipping business, the business here is extremely developed, the degree of richness is not worse than Jiangnan, but the air is full of fishy smell, and the environment is a little worse than the Jiangnan of the land of fish and rice.
Walking into the town, you can see groups of bare-chested Sea Shark Gang disciples everywhere, all with wanton smiles on their faces.
In order to avoid conflicts, Tang Yuan was speechless all the way and walked into a wine shop.
This wine shop is not big, but it is also full of people in the rivers and lakes with swords on their backs, some people drink in silence, and some people talk about anecdotes in a rough voice.
Seeing this, Tang Yuan ordered a jar of wine and appetizers, sat down in the corner, and listened carefully to all kinds of news.
On the rivers and lakes, unexpected news can often be heard in the wine shop, such as which side of the power of the lord concubine has an affair with his subordinates, which geniuses on the rivers and lakes have broken into the hidden dragon list, the competition between grandmasters, etc., the people in the rivers and lakes have always been happy with such anecdotes.
In this regard, Tang Yuan took a sip of wine from the bowl, laughed without words, and continued to listen to the gossip.
Uh-huh, hmm......
When he was listening with interest to the people in the nearby table talking about the Sea Shark Gang, he suddenly heard the sound of chewing food under the table, just below his table, Tang Yuan frowned and looked over, looking at a body of tattered clothes, as well as a nearby piece of bones.
I saw that this person was in tatters, obviously a man named Hanako, with dirty gray hair, and a rancid smell coming from his body.
Looking at this scene, Tang Yuan was about to scold him and let him leave.
At this time, Xiao Er's eyes were sharp, and he immediately trotted over and said viciously: "You are always called Huazi, why are you here to make trouble again, if you don't leave, I will ask someone to beat him away, so as not to affect the business." ”
After that, Xiao Er bowed down and said to Tang Yuan with a smiling face: "The guest officer is angry, this old man called Huazi to make trouble in the store every day, which shocked the guest officer, and he didn't want to be strange, and the villain drove him away." ”
Tang Yuan nodded slightly, did not blame Xiao Er, nor did he scold the old man Hanako, he picked up the wine bowl and wanted to drink, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the food on the table, and the whole person froze suddenly.
"Your old name is really not a lift, didn't you reward you with some food yesterday, why did you come here today to make trouble, go quickly, don't disturb the guest officer, really annoy those heroes in the rivers and lakes, be careful of your life." ”
Xiao Er pushed the old man Hanako, and kept talking in his mouth, thinking in his heart that he should hurry up and let Huazi leave, otherwise when those people in the rivers and lakes get angry, not only will the business in the store be yellow, but even the store will suffer.
"You little two lied to me yesterday that I always called Hanako, and that little bit of randied vegetables didn't have a little oil and water. ”
When the words fell, Hanako patted the dust on her buttocks, touched the oil on her mouth and got up to leave.
"Wait!"
Tang Yuan stopped the old man called Huazi, and then motioned for Xiao Er, who wanted to stop talking, to leave, and said: "I still have some appetizers here, I'm afraid Tang alone won't be able to finish eating, so it's better to sit down and have a drink together." ”
Hearing this, Hanako, the old man, sat down in place again, grabbed a chicken on the table with one hand, brushed away her dirty long hair and gnawed it, and didn't say anything thankful.
"There is no one at the table, why don't the seniors sit at the table and drink with Tang. ”
Tang Yuan ordered a few more dishes and a few jars of wine from Xiao Er, and said with a smile to the old man Hanako.
Xiao Er brought up the wine and food, glared at the old man Hanako, and said to Tang Yuan: "Guest officer, this old man is called Hanako to eat and drink in the store every day, the guest officer can ignore it and ask someone to beat him away." ”
"No need, you can go down. ”
Tang Yuan waved his hand, didn't say much to Xiao Er, and didn't explain anything.
"No, no, I always like to sit on the floor, and I feel like I eat it, and I feel uncomfortable sitting at the table. ”
The old name Hanako didn't care about Tang Yuan's senior, and muttered to the chicken in his hand.
Tang Yuan thought about it, but he didn't force it, he poured a bowl of wine, and with a wave of his hand, it fell from the table and landed steadily in front of the old man Huazi, not a drop of wine was spilled on the ground, and there was not even a trace of ripples in the wine bowl.
The old Huazi didn't look at Tang Yuan, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, threw the wine bowl on the table casually, and landed steadily in front of Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan continued to pour the wine without a trace of impatience.
In this way, the old man asked Hanako to drink a jar of wine.
The chicken was also gnawed clean, leaving a bone that stood out.
Tang Yuan was about to talk to the old Hanako, but the old Hanako suddenly stood up, glanced at Tang Yuan and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality, the old Hanako is gone." ”
As soon as the words fell, the old man called Hanako walked out of the wine shop, and in the blink of an eye, he merged into the flow of people.
"Senior ......"
Before Tang Yuan's words fell, he no longer saw the figure of the old man Huazi, threw down some scattered silver, and got up to chase after him.
It's just that in just a moment, the old Hanako disappeared.
Tang Yuan squinted his eyes, and his spiritual power opened an invisible net, but he didn't notice the slightest breath of the old man Hanako.
I searched several streets in a row, but I didn't see any trace.
When Tang Yuan walked on the main road of the town, he didn't know that the old name Hanako was sitting on the roof above his head and picking his teeth, and watched Tang Yuan look around looking for him with interest, and immediately gloated: "Hehe, you still want to find the old name Hanako." ”
"Let's go!"
The old man Hanako threw the tooth-picking branch in his hand at Tang Yuan, glanced at him again, and said with a smile: "Let me always ask Hanako to see how capable you are." ”
As the words fell, Hanako, who had been called for a moment, suddenly disappeared out of thin air, without warning, as if she had never appeared on the roof.
