Chapter 106: Uncle Xiang's Appearance
"Whew!"
"Shhhh
Kan Kan dodged Ding Li's punch, the man in black retreated again and again, and his mouth gasped again and again, he never expected Ding Li's reaction to be so fast, and the movements of the whole person were extremely coordinated, and his limbs seemed to be able to move at will.
After a short stunned moment, the distance that had just been opened was approached by Ding Li again, and three kicks in succession kicked towards the side of the knee, waist, and neck of the man in black, and in the face of three blows at almost the same time, the man in black was able to dodge the first two blows in the continuous retreat, although he raised his arm in time to protect his head, but he was still kicked out with a heavy kick.
The embarrassed man in black rolled twice on the ground, as if trying to avoid Ding Li's pursuit, and when his body touched the wall on the side of the alley, he supported his body with one hand, but just got up, he had to squat again to dodge Ding Li's accurate kick, and the hands of the man in black supporting the wall seemed to feel the shaking of the wall by this kick.
Without any counterattack, the man in black was pursued by Ding Li one after another, and finally after the third attempt to get up failed, the vacancy exposed in his chest was seen by Ding Li again, and in desperation, in order not to be kicked by Ding Li's chest, the man in black had to protect his arms in front of his chest and let Ding Li kick himself out.
Despite this, this kick was completely beyond the expectations of the man in black, not only kicked him upside down and flew out for more than ten steps, his arms were even more sore, and he felt a burst of suffocation in his chest.
Without waiting for the man in black to ease up, Ding Li, who strode forward, pulled up one of the other party's arms, twisted slightly, and suddenly pulled back, and after a slight 'click', he threw it away, and the other party's dislocated arm fell weakly. Without waiting for the man in black to react to the pain, Ding Li, who was squatting slightly, once again dragged the other party's other arm into dislocation, and then reached out and pulled the back of the opponent's neck, took advantage of the situation, lifted it up like a chicken, and strode towards the alley.
"Hiss." The arms of the man in black who were carried naturally drooped, his hands rubbed against the ground continuously, and he gasped again and again in his mouth, as if this was the only way to get out of the pain as soon as possible.
"Don't, don't go, I have something to say." After seeing Ding Li's intentions, the man in black twisted his neck and tried to struggle, and stared anxiously at the mouth of the alley, as if he was afraid that Ding Li would just carry him to the official yamen.
"If you have anything to say, you can keep it and talk to the brothers in the yamen!" Ding Li pursed his lips disapprovingly, and the pace under his feet did not pause at all, but the man in black in his hand struggled harder, and shouted again and again, but Ding Li stopped suddenly, bent his waist, and stretched out his hand to twist the other party's chin slightly, and the shouts in the other party's mouth disappeared completely, and all that was left was a vague babbling from the throat.
"Wait!" When he was about to reach the mouth of the alley, Ding Li suddenly heard a familiar and unfamiliar voice, he was slightly stunned, and there was a flash in front of him, and then Ding Li subconsciously took two steps back, staring at the other party vigilantly, but then he was full of shock, because what appeared in front of him was Uncle Xiang who had met outside Jiedu Mansion in the morning.
"Let him go, I asked him to come!" Uncle Xiang glanced at the black-clothed man in Ding Li's hand, and the hat on the top of the other party's head was still not far behind him, but Uncle Xiang's face did not change any expression, and even in a pair of deep eyes, there was no emotional fluctuation, at least, Ding Li hadn't seen it yet.
"Why?" Ding Li frowned slightly, but still threw the black-clothed man in his hand aside, but looking at Uncle Xiang's eyes, there was a hint of vigilance in addition to the thick doubt.
For Ding Li's performance, Uncle Xiang's eyes finally flashed a trace of surprise, of course he didn't understand why Ding Li was so vigilant. But Ding Li was more worried in his heart, he had been back for a long time, wouldn't it be in Fuxu Town and Zhang's eldest lady Zhang Yurou that little bit of was known by Old Man Zhang, and then think about the sneak attack of the black-clothed man just now, Ding Li immediately linked the two things together, and the Uncle Xiang in front of him was sent by Old Man Zhang to get rid of him.
"Try you, how about seeing the young owner's vision!" After a flash of surprise, Uncle Xiang's face returned to calm again, and when he said this, there was even a smile of appreciation on the corner of his mouth, but in Ding Li's opinion, this smile was somewhat cunning, or it contained some unknown meaning.
Seeing Uncle Xiang like this, Ding Li slowly put away his vigilance, thought about it for a while, or arched his hand at the other party, and bowed as a junior, but his tone was extremely indifferent: "Let Uncle Xiang bother!" ”
"You're welcome!" Seeing this, it seemed that Uncle Xiang particularly appreciated Ding Li's politeness, and the smile on the corner of his mouth also expanded rapidly, he smiled and waved his hand, and then glanced at the man in black on the side, and then looked at Ding Li again, and asked with a meaningful chuckle: "Ah Li, go to the teahouse in front and sit?" ”
Hearing this, Ding Li's heart thumped violently, and his thoughts flew to Zhang Yurou in Fuxu Town again, but in the face of the invitation of the chief housekeeper of the Zhang Chamber of Commerce, Ding Li couldn't refuse, and after a little thought, Ding Li nodded happily: "Okay!" Let Uncle Xiang arrange! ”
"Good! Young people should do things like this! Uncle Xiang nodded appreciatively, then turned his head to look at the man in black, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his tone became much calmer: "Go back and get ten yuan and recuperate at home for a while!" ”
After that, Uncle Xiang didn't wait for the other party to agree, glanced at Ding Li again, turned around and left the alley.
"It's okay, it's just a dislocation, and it will heal in a few days!" Before leaving, Ding Li shrugged helplessly at the man in black on the ground, but still gestured to the other party.
"Thank you Brother Li for your mercy, it's inconvenient to salute, I hope you will forgive me!" The man in black smiled bitterly and nodded at Ding Li, his tone quite sincere.
"Don't dare! Thank you for your mercy! Ding Li replied nonchalantly, and waved his hand without looking back, and he didn't know whether he was sincerely thanking the other party or belittling the other party's lack of skills.
However, as soon as he came out of the alley, he really scared Ding Li, there were fifty or sixty people on both sides of the alley, all dressed in the same way, all in white short shirts, except for the few people who followed closely around Uncle Xiang with Tang knives in their hands, the backs of the rest of the people were bulging, and there was no need to think that they had hidden weapons such as short knives there.
However, Ding Li came back to his senses in an instant, just turned his gaze and glanced at it a few more times, and the doubts that were originally full of heart were gradually dispelled, especially when Uncle Xiang, who was walking in front of him, cast that kind gaze at him, Ding Li also concluded that the other party was not here to harm him.
Uncle Xiang said that the teahouse in front of him was enough for Ding Li to walk for a quarter of an hour under the gaze of everyone, and there was no need for Uncle Xiang to introduce him, nor did he need Ding Li to deliberately ask, although there are many wealthy businessmen in Guangzhou Mansion, but like the teahouse of this scale that Ding Li sees now, Ding Li believes that there are few families in the entire Guangzhou Mansion that can do this.
In particular, Ding Li followed Uncle Xiang and others to a distance of twenty or thirty steps from the teahouse, and the boss who got the notice in the teahouse ran out to greet him with a smile, although the boss looked kind, and just by virtue of that authentic Tang costume, people felt that he was a shrewd businessman, but the strange light in the boss's eyes from time to time made Ding Li conclude that this person was not just the shopkeeper of a teahouse under the Zhang Chamber of Commerce.
Sure enough, after entering the teahouse, the kind boss turned into the role of the shopkeeper, personally leading the way for Uncle Xiang and Ding Li, until he climbed to the third floor of the wooden building, and then waved the maid on the third floor to retreat, and after Uncle Xiang and Ding Li both sat down, he personally knelt aside, and once again converted into a tea master, personally boiling water to make tea for the two.
"Ali, the matter of Fuxu Town, I have already heard the report from the messenger sent by the Shaodong family before noon!" It seemed that there was something urgent, Uncle Xiang didn't wait for the 'tea artist' to brew the tea, so he nodded slightly at Ding Li, smiled and spoke, and went straight to the point: "In Fuxu Town, you have made great contributions, not only the young owner has a very high evaluation of you!" Mr. Zhang was also very happy when he heard about this, but the old man has had too many things recently, so I came to meet you on behalf of the old man! ”
"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your concern! Uncle Xiang has a hard time! Ding Li was a little uncomfortable with this way of kneeling and sitting, but he still bowed with his head and his awkward movements.
"You're welcome, there are some things I want to ask you, I wonder if Ali is convenient for you?" Uncle Xiang smiled and waved his hand, the smile on his face was kind, like an elder of Ding Li's own family, but it made Ding Li, who had a ghost in his heart, feel a tingling scalp for a while, but he had to nod slightly to indicate that he had no objection.
"Ali, I've read your life information, but there's one thing I don't understand! If it's convenient, please let us know as it is! Uncle Xiang did not hesitate, but still kept a kind smile and looked at Ding Li, but these words made Ding Li's heart feel relieved, as long as he didn't ask about the matter with Zhang Yurou, Ding Li was completely fearless, even if he nodded boldly, he even smiled modestly.
"Then it's presumptuous!" To the surprise of the teahouse owner on the side, Uncle Xiang actually bowed to Ding Li with a solemn face before he spoke, and then asked in a solemn and low voice under Ding Li's gaze: "As far as I know, you are an only child at home, and since you were born, you have only one mother, and until now, you have not had any news about your father!" But another thing is not clear, you have a table! If, according to normal terms, a man will only be given a table by his parents or elders when he is weak (20 years old), but you? ”
"This..." Hearing this, Ding Li was also a little confused, he didn't know when he had the word Ziyi, and even who gave him this word, he didn't know if it was the mother who had passed away, or the father he had never met, Ding Li didn't know anything about it.
