Xu Chengyan left the wrestling ring, walked all the way to the direction of the old north gate, and entered the old city, where the scenery was obviously much more depressed, and the residential styles on both sides of the street were old, which was obviously not as prosperous and lively as the concession.

Passing through the old city, going out of the north gate, inquiring all the way, finally found Hanjiazhuang, and spent a lot of time searching for the old people, and finally came to a dilapidated courtyard.

The low courtyard wall, standing outside, you can clearly see the two dilapidated tiled houses inside, and a wooden door hangs diagonally on the door frame, as if it is about to fall down if you push it.

Seeing these in front of him, Xu Chengyan couldn't help frowning, feeling a little disappointed, and secretly wondered if he had found the wrong person.

At this time, there were a few coughs in the room, the voice was a little weak, and I saw an old man in shabby clothes walking out of the door, although this person was a little rickety, but the skeleton was tall, and it could be seen that when he was young, he was a burly and strong man.

The old man came to the courtyard, sat down on the chaise longue, took a glass of water from the small table next to him, and took a sip.

Xu Chengyan is even more uncertain, the other party's age is obviously older than he expected, and his health is not good, but since he is here, he must always ask clearly before he is willing.

He stepped forward and pushed open the courtyard door, and walked in, and the old man raised his eyes and saw him come in, and he gasped lightly, and was about to ask.

Xu Chengyan was the first to ask, "Are you Han Chang, Mr. Han?" ”

The old man was stunned, the other party was really looking for himself, the old man looked at Xu Chengyan carefully, and nodded slightly.

You've found the right person!

Xu Chengyan stepped forward and took a small stool to sit opposite Han Chang, and said with a smile: "Mr. Han, my surname is Xu, and I came to visit you. ”

"Visit me? Hehe...... no one has come to my house for many years! ”

Han Chang looked old, but he understood in his mind, he didn't know what the other party's purpose was, and he was obviously very wary.

Xu Chengyan simply asked directly: "Mr. Han, I came here to inquire about someone from you. ”

"I'm a lonely old man, who can I know!" Han Chang said weakly, and then couldn't help coughing.

Xu Chengyan waited for his coughing to subside, then stepped forward and asked in a harmonious voice: "Do you have a senior brother who got into trouble more than 20 years ago and escaped from Tianjin, his surname is Lei ........., his name is Lei Tai?" ”

Xu Chengyan asked, his eyes staring closely at Han Chang's facial expression, carefully observing every subtle change.

Sure enough, when Han Chang heard Xu Chengyan mention the word "senior brother" and escaped from Tianjin, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but when Xu Chengyan mentioned the last sentence, Han Chang's expression was obviously a little hesitant.

Xu Chengyan secretly guessed that Han Chang should be Lei Tai's junior brother, but the hesitation he showed in the end was probably because the name was not right, it seems that his previous guess was correct, and the name "Lei Tai" should be a pseudonym.

It's not surprising to think about it, when Lei Tai was in the Xu family, he didn't use the name "Lei Tai", but called "Xu Zhengshan", and at first said that he was the elder of his family.

Later, I happened to listen to the conversation between my father and Lei Tai in private, and I learned that the elder's real name is "Lei Tai", but now it seems that even this name is fake, which shows how careful Lei Tai is in handling things.

"Old man, don't worry about it, I'm Lei Tai's apprentice, but I was separated from him a few years ago, and now I want to find out the whereabouts of my master, so I came to his hometown to find out, if you know his whereabouts, and hope to give advice, I will be very grateful!"

With that, he took out a wad of bills from his pocket and placed them on the small table.

He thought that the old man in front of him had been trapped so far, and when he saw this money, he would inevitably give in, but Han Chang didn't even look at it, leaned over on the chair, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "I don't have any senior brother, even if I do, I'm dead, I don't know anything about thunder or rain, you go quickly, I'm going to rest." ”

Han Chang directly evicted the customer, which made Xu Chengyan a little uncertain, did he really find the wrong person? Or don't you know who Lei Taiqi is? Or is there something else going on?

By the way, maybe it's because of the enemy! However, Xu Chengyan didn't know much about Lei Tai's past, and he didn't know about the enemy's situation, maybe Han Chang was really worried.

Xu Chengyan thought about it, and could see that Han Chang was not easy to persuade, and it was difficult for him to win the trust of others with empty words and white teeth.

And he knew that if Han Chang really had contact with Lei Tai, he would not be so embarrassed, most likely because there was no news from Lei Tai yet, it seemed that there was still a long way to go to find his family, and it was not so easy.

"Why aren't you leaving? I don't keep any guests here, by the way, take your money away, it will be useless, my old man still has this backbone! ”

Han Chang saw that Xu Chengyan was not going for a long time, and the pestle was not moving, so he couldn't help frowning and urging him to leave again.

Xu Chengyan was not angry, not only did he not take back the banknotes, but took out a handful of banknotes and put them together with the previous ones, but this time the banknotes were green, and they were a pile of dollars.

In the metropolis of Tianjin, the recognition of the US dollar is higher, and the people understand that the pound and the US dollar are hard currencies that are stronger than gold.

Han Chang looked at Xu Chengyan in surprise: "What are you doing here?" I said I didn't know anything Leitai, ahem...... It's useless to give money, take it quickly... Ahem......"

Xu Chengyan explained with a smile: "I know you have concerns, in this way, I will not give you money for nothing, just treat it as a reward, and if one day, you see the person I am looking for, bring him a message, just say that his apprentices are looking for them, and by the way, I will also report their safety for me!" ”

Speaking of this, he took out a pen and paper from his pocket, wrote down his name and his residence in Taiyuan, put it on the small table, and continued: "When the time comes, give him this address, whether you are willing to contact me, it is up to them to decide, old man, I know you have concerns, now you don't have to say anything, if there is a day, please pass on a word, if there is no ......, if not, you will not be busy in vain, you keep this money for the elderly, and when I have the opportunity to come to Tianjin, I will come to see you again!" ”

After speaking, Xu Chengyan turned around and left.

"Wait!" Han Chang's voice came from behind him.

Xu Chengyan hurriedly turned to look at Han Chang.

Han Chang had already sat up at this time, his face was a little hesitant, and then beckoned: "Come back, I'll make it clear to you." ”

Xu Chengyan was happy in his heart, it seemed that his actions had dispelled the other party's concerns, and his attitude had changed, so he quickly sat down again and waited quietly.

"Ahem......"

Coughing lightly, Han Chang took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "I do have a senior brother surnamed Lei, but his name is not Lei Tai, his name is Lei Zhenshan, he was a famous martial artist in Tianjin more than twenty years ago, you should be talking about him!" ”

Thunder Town Mountain! That's right, "Tai" is the supreme in the mountains, the leader of the five mountains, the ancient Zen seal, the suppression of the mountains, this is a different name.

Xu Chengyan hurriedly asked, "Then do you have any news of him?" ”

"Nope!" Han Chang shook his head, "We haven't heard from us for more than twenty years, to be honest, although your master and I are brothers, the relationship has never been good, even if he comes back, he may not contact me." ”

It turned out that Han Chang and Lei Zhenshan were apprentices of the same master, and they were both apprentices taught by an old martial artist surnamed Gao.

However, Han Chang is different from Lei Zhenshan, he was brought to the door by his parents to apprentice, and he is considered a disciple of a high martial artist.

And Lei Zhenshan is an orphan raised by Gao Wushi since he was a child, and he has always been raised by his side as a son, and he is a child who will give Gao Wushi a pension in the future.

The distance between the two is naturally different, Gao Wushi is an unreserved professor to Lei Tai, and the mantle is passed down from one to the other, and he is a lot worse than Han Chang, and he has more or less hidden a hand, such as the stunt of the flying tiger claw, he only taught Lei Zhenshan, not Han Chang.

Han Chang knew this, so he was naturally not convinced, and Lei Zhenshan's temper was also strong, so the brothers did not get along well.

Later, Gao Wushi died, and the two of them also developed separately, Lei Zhenshan relied on his hard kung fu, and soon made a name for himself in the Tianjin martial arts world, and became a famous martial artist in Tianjin Wei at the age of less than thirty.

Han Chang didn't go to the ring, but he entered the wrestling ring, and his good kung fu became a leader at that time, and he was also in the limelight for a while.

But within a few years, there was that change, the two local gang leaders in Tianjin in order to earn land and fire, at that time Tianjin Wei martial arts prevailed, there was a habit of inviting martial artists to the town, one of the leaders spent a lot of money to invite Lei Zhenshan to come forward to the town, as a result, in the fight, Lei Zhenshan accidentally killed the other party's leading martial artist.

Originally, this was an ordinary thing in the gang fight, and if there was a real death, the gang leader would find someone to top the tank, but this time it was different, Lei Zhenshan killed the younger brother of the leader of the other party's Qing Gang, and the matter suddenly became bigger.

The leader of the Green Gang was anxious and ordered to chase and kill Lei Zhenshan, Lei Zhenshan had nowhere to hide in Tianjin, so he could only flee to Beiping, but Beiping was too close, and the other party's people chased after him, and in desperation, he could only go to Shanxi incognito, which was how he hid for all these years.

And Han Chang also had an accident at this time, he worked as a bodyguard for a wealthy family, and when he was protecting the main family, he was stabbed in the back of the waist, and he couldn't afford to be seriously injured, and it took a long time to barely pick up a life, hurt his kidney qi, and his kung fu was wasted, so he quit the business and lived on the money compensated by the main family, but then the main family also fell, and his life was gone, and he fell to the point where he is now.

After listening to Han Chang's narration, Xu Chengyan sighed with emotion in his heart, speaking of which, these two brothers are all martial arts, but once they eat the rivers and lakes, fight and kill, when the curtain ends, they are all so miserable, and his teacher Lei Tai finally ended up limping with a lifelong disability and took refuge in the Xu family.

He thought for a moment and then asked, "Is the gang leader who chased and killed my master still there?" ”

"In!" Han Chang sighed lightly, "It is now Bai Yisheng, the leader of the Qing Gang in Tianjin Wei, known as Old Man Bai in the rivers and lakes, his strength has become bigger and bigger over the years, and he has also taken refuge in the Japanese, and now the family is dominant, and the gangsters of Tianjin Wei listen to him."

I want to warn you, you must not inquire about your master's news in Tianjin Weike, this person's eyes and ears are everywhere, once it reaches his ears, it will be a big trouble, out of this door, you should not mention the word 'Lei Zhenshan' again. ”

White old man! Xu Chengyan also raised his eyebrows, this is really a character! When he was in Beiping, he heard Takeda Guiming say that the old man Bai was the boss of the Qing Gang, and the leaders of the entire Tianjin Wei big and small rivers and lakes worshiped under his door, even the Japanese were afraid of him, but he didn't expect Lei Tai's luck to be so bad that he met such an enemy, no wonder he had been wandering for decades and did not dare to return to his hometown.

But in this way, the possibility of the family being in Tianjin is even smaller, even if it is really in Tianjin, it is not easy for him to ask around, is it possible that he will kill Old Man Bai first?

With this thought, Xu Chengyan's heart came alive, and he really had this thought, don't look at the great reputation of the white old man, but in his eyes, he is just a gangster, he even killed a character like Takuma Ito, what is a white old man?

Thinking of this, he asked, "Uncle Shi, is your injury also the hand of Old Man Bai?" ”

He suspected that Han Chang was also implicated by his master and was blackened by someone, so he ended up like this.

But Han Chang shook his head, he saw that Xu Chengyan's eyes were not good, and explained: "It's not, your master is arrogant and arrogant, once he was proud, he was empty-eyed, and he had the wrong temper with me, so after leaving the school, we didn't have any dealings, and outsiders didn't know about our relationship, my business, I was unlucky, I caught up, and I didn't complain about anyone."

But I see that you are unwilling, young and vigorous, just like your master back then, no one is afraid, everyone dares to move, if you call me uncle, I will advise you, die as soon as possible, that is an egg touching a stone, don't put yourself in.

Besides, aside from everything else, your master killed someone else's own brother, and people should look for him, killing people to pay for their lives, paying off debts, coming out to mix the rivers and lakes, sooner or later they have to pay back, it's all karma, and it can't be said who is right and who is wrong.

If you want to blame, blame your master for being too flamboyant back then, and when others offered a few kind words, he got carried away and stood up for others regardless of it, but something happened, and people ran away, and he himself took ...... inside."

Listening to Han Chang's chatter, talking about whether the senior brother was not, Xu Chengyan pursed his lips, and thought to himself, this pair of senior brothers is really not the right way, after so many years, they are still full of complaints, and it is estimated that they really don't agree.

But Xu Chengyan still didn't like to listen to Han Chang's nagging, and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Don't say that, my master always said in front of me that your kung fu is good, not worse than him, and said that there was a chance to come back and meet you, but I didn't say that you weren't at all." ”

Lei Tai has been wandering for decades, and when he is old, he will inevitably miss his hometown and his old people, and he has put aside his old prejudices about this junior brother and has a close heart, so he chatted a few words in front of Xu Chengyan.

As soon as these words came out, Han Chang couldn't help but be stunned, his lips squirmed twice, and he couldn't help but ask, "Did he really say that?" ”

"Of course, my master only thinks about you, and you can also relax, don't worry about the things of the year."

This visit was fruitless, Xu Chengyan did not delay any longer, since he recognized his uncle, he couldn't ignore it, he left an extra sum of money, which was regarded as filial piety to his uncle, and the two talked a few more words, and then returned disappointed.
