Chapter Forty-Six: The Heavy Rain Is Coming

Lei Potian rode on his horse and looked at the small city in front of him from a distance.

This is Qingping County?

It looked plain, even a little pitiful, which made Lei Potian feel a little disappointed.

But it won't be long before this small and obscure place will become famous all over the world, because he has come to break the sky.

Now there are Jiangnan Ming family and Shuzhong Tang Sect, they are undoubtedly the two largest forces in the rivers and lakes today, and the stamping of any of them is enough to shake the entire rivers and lakes.

And now, he has broken the sky, and he is not only going to defeat them here, but also to defeat them completely.

He has absolute confidence, because there is a Sword Saint behind him, and the Lei family also has a Sword Saint!

As long as the Sword Saint is there, the Tang Da and the like of the Tang Sect in Shu are just some clowns who jump off the beam, and the old man of the Ming family in Jiangnan will never be an opponent.

He was already sure of victory.

After this battle, the Lei family will rise again on the rivers and lakes, so he founded the once famous Thunder Gate, which will regain its glory again and truly become the overlord of the rivers and lakes.

Thinking of this, Lei Potian felt that there was some blood boiling in his body, and he had an irrepressible feeling.

However, there was still a question in his heart, that is, on his way to Qingping County, the time it took was not too short, but the people of the Ming family in Jiangnan and the Tang Sect in Shuzhong did not evacuate, but still stayed in Qingping County.

With their abilities, it is impossible for them not to know that they are on their way here, and they should already know that the people who are traveling with them are also Juggernaut.

But they didn't choose the best way to avoid it, were they ready to meet it head-on, or did they have some kind of foolproof strategy?

Lei Potian couldn't figure it out, but he believed that with the Sword Saint on his side, he would definitely be able to win.

With the martial arts of the Sword Saint, except for the martial arts myth Zhang Sanfeng who no one has seen at all now, and it is rumored that he should be more than a hundred years old, there should be no one in the world who is his opponent.

What else is there to worry about?

Lei Potian let out a long breath, his clenched fists as if he had grasped the impending victory.

As soon as he rode a horse to meet him, the person on the horse was Lei Jiutian, who he trusted the most now, his youngest cousin.

To be honest, he has never liked this person very much, his martial arts are common, and his ability to do things is not outstanding, so in the era of the Great Lei Gate, although he is the youngest of the Lei family's "Tian" generation, he has not been reused by Lei Potian.

At that time, the Great Thunder Gate could be said to be full of talents, but now the situation is completely different, the elite are all lost, and even Lei Potian's own son is also killed in Huangquan, which is really to the point of being stretched.

In this way, Lei Potian had to use this cousin, but fortunately, although he didn't have much ability, he didn't make any mistakes, and now he is one of the few cronies that Lei Potian can rely on.

After all, he is still a direct member of Lei Potian's house, and he is much more reliable than those Lei family's side members.

Lei Potian pointed to the outline of the city in front of him and asked, "This is Qingping County?"

Lei Jiutian bowed down on his horse and replied, "Back to the words of the hall master, it is exactly. ”

Lei Potian asked again: "What has been going on in the city these days?"

Lei Jiutian replied: "According to the orders of the main hall master, this place has been closely monitored, and there is nothing abnormal. It's just that Tang Da went out recently, but he has already returned. There is no sign that the people of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong and the Ming family in Jiangnan are going to leave here. ”

Lei Potian nodded, and seemed to be very satisfied with Lei Jiutian's answer.

He looked at Qingping County in the distance, and was silent thoughtfully for a moment before he asked again, "Is that person here?"

Lei Jiutian replied: "It's already here, just wait on the side of the road in front." ”

Lei Potian nodded with satisfaction, relaxed the reins, and walked forward.

Not far away, on the side of the road, stood a slender and pretty figure, she was the "person" in Lei Potian's mouth, Lei Xiaotu.

Lei Potian has never liked this little girl.

This girl is the granddaughter of the fourth uncle of the Lei family, and she was sent outside by her grandfather to learn art since she was a child, but no one knows how her teacher is, and it is very mysterious.

The Lei family's tradition is to favor sons over daughters, and the daughter's family is not taken seriously, but this girl is not ordinary.

In Lei Potian's eyes, this girl is not only eccentric, extremely smart, but also super

The more ordinary men are ambitious and ruthless.

In the battle of Hangzhou, as soon as she came back, she designed to kill the four elders of the Lei family and seize control of the Lei family's outer lineage, you know, it was her own grandfather!

Moreover, she also pretended to be crazy and stupid to approach Tang Yu, which made Tang Yu fascinated, trying to use the power of the Lei family's external system in her hand to establish a new Great Thunder Gate and sit on the throne of the head hall master.

It is terrible that such a young girl would have such ambitions and means!

How could Lei Potian tolerate her?

set up an ambush by the West Lake, trying to get rid of her, but she finally escaped, and since then she has disappeared.

In the end, in the battle of Hangzhou, due to the loss of the support of the Lei family's collateral forces, Lei Potian was finally defeated, and Tang Yu of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong also died in this battle.

In Lei Potian's eyes, this girl is simply an ominous person, and those who are close to her have no good end.

But this time, Lei Potian still took the initiative to contact her.

After all, she is the granddaughter of Lei Laosi, and behind her is the power of the Lei family represented by the four elders of the Lei family.

So although Lei Potian was very disgusted with this girl, he had to show favor to her against his will, even if the two sides were once your mortal enemies, for the common good, for the sake of the Lei family, you can still join hands again.

And Lei Xiaotu didn't seem to hold a grudge against the last ambush, and readily agreed to Lei Potian's request for an alliance, after all, the prestige of the Sword Saint was enough to reunite all the forces of the Lei family.

Seeing Lei Potian on the horse, Lei Xiaotu showed a sweet smile and took the initiative to greet: "Third uncle, my niece has been waiting for a long time." ”

Lei Potian's eyes flickered, and the little girl in front of him looked so innocent with such an innocent smile, like a delicate flower with dewdrops, but he knew that this flower was stinging, and it was a poison that pierced a little flesh and skin to see blood seal the throat!

But his face was filled with a warm smile, and he said: "There is Lao Xian's niece who has been waiting for a long time, and Hangzhou has always been good?"

His attitude seems to have long forgotten how he deliberately wanted to put this "virtuous niece" to death by the West Lake in Hangzhou, but more like a kind elder who has been reunited after a long absence.

Lei Xiaotu glanced at the carriage following Lei Potian, naturally she already knew who was in the carriage, but she was still smiling and said: "The third uncle called, how dare the niece slack off, all the masters of the Lei family's side have already arrived here, let the third uncle order." After all, we are all members of the Lei family. ”

Lei Potian nodded and said, "Yes, for the Lei family." ”

If it weren't for the Lei family, I'm afraid that this would have been a different scene a long time ago, and it would never look like it is now, full of family affection.

Lei Xiaotu and her Lei family's side forces had already arrived, and with the Sword Saint in the carriage behind him, Lei Potian felt that everything was ready.

He looked at Qingping County in the distance with some hesitation, and looked up at the sky.

The sky was overcast, and a dark cloud hung overhead, and it looked like a heavy rain was coming.

When Lei Potian looked up at the sky, on a hill not far away, under the shade of a tree, Old Man Ming was carrying his hands behind his back, looking at them from a distance.

His eyes were always fixed on the carriage, his face was solemn, and his mouth seemed to be muttering to himself: "Could it really be him?"

At this moment, a voice like a silver bell sounded behind him: "Grandpa, is this Sword Saint really as powerful as the legend?"

Old Man Ming didn't need to look back, he knew that this must be his rude, willful and eccentric granddaughter, Ming Wenlan.

He shook his head lightly and said in a low voice: "I don't know, I'm afraid that no one in the world today has seen him make a move, and I'm afraid no one knows how high his swordsmanship is." ”

Ming Wenlan blinked her big black eyes and asked curiously, "Could it be that even Grandpa, you are not his opponent?"

Old Man Ming snorted from his nostrils: "Little child, what do you know! Sometimes being too famous is not necessarily a good thing." ”

Ming Wenlan didn't understand and shook her head.

Old Man Ming didn't understand her, and patiently explained: "A person who is too famous and praised too high will enjoy such an honor." However, there is still a mountain in the world, and there will be more and more people who can challenge it. After a long time, he will desperately want to break through

If he wants to keep his current glory and status, it will put a lot of pressure on him. ”

"However, manpower is sometimes exhausted, and the human body has a limit, how can it be so easy to break through the limit? Some people will continue to work hard and try with perseverance, while others will be afraid of failure and dare not try to break through. ”

Ming Wenlan couldn't help but ask, "Then what kind of person does this Sword Saint belong to?"

Old Man Ming said leisurely: "He can have today's status and reputation, he must have tried his best to fail and break through countless times in this life, but he is now very old, birth, old age, sickness and death are the natural laws that people cannot escape, his physical condition should be much worse than the peak, and it is difficult to surpass and break through again." ”

"At his age and in the realm of swordsmanship, stopping still means regressing, I really want to know, which of the two types of people does he belong to now?"

mentioned birth, old age, sickness and death, Old Man Ming's heart suddenly moved.

He remembered the fight with Zhang Sanfeng on Zhongnan Mountain.

Counting up, Zhang Sanfeng should be a full hundred and sixty years old by now, but his skills, his martial arts, and even his complexion, how can there be a little sign of aging?

Could it be that he really became an immortal, or was he just a monster? that he was able to escape the natural laws of birth, old age, sickness and death.

Old Man Ming's mood suddenly became a little chaotic.

At this time, Ming Wenlan opened his mouth and asked, "Grandpa, do you want to fight him?"

Old Man Ming was recalled by this question, and he snorted coldly and said, "If you want to know his depth, you don't have to do it yourself, it's too risky." Now that the battle between the Lei family and the Tangmen in Shuzhong is about to break out, we can watch from the wall and reap the benefits of the fishermen. ”

Old Man Ming turned his head and glanced at Ming Wenlan and said, "Don't act rashly in everything, you must learn to take advantage of the situation, and exchange the minimum price for the greatest benefit." ”

Ming Wenlan nodded, after being by the old man's side for so many years, she was very clear about the old man's style.

Old Man Ming looked at Ming Wenlan, this is really a smart child.

It's a pity that she is a daughter!

After his only son died in the war, he only left such a little blood, and he originally wanted to pin the future of the Jiangnan Ming family on her, but she was really a girl!

How can a woman lead the Jiangnan Ming family to dominate the rivers and lakes, be proud of the world, and how can she convince the public?

This is truly providential, and creation makes people.

Old Man Ming couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart.

Ming Wenlan blinked his eyes and asked, "Since we don't clash with them head-on, why don't we leave, and what are we staying for?"

Old Man Ming said in a deep voice: "Back then, your father was attacked by all the world's sects and unfortunately died in battle, I swore that anyone who stood on the blood of the Ming family with both hands would definitely make them pay the price. This time, Mingyulou's death was all thanks to the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, do you think I can leave now?"

Ming Wenlan seemed to want to speak and stopped, but Old Man Ming interrupted her and said, "You ghost girl, don't think I don't know what you're thinking! Are you trying to intercede for that Ye Feng?"

Without waiting for Ming Wenlan to answer, he said categorically: "Ming Yulou's death, this Ye Feng can't get rid of it, and he must also pay for it with blood!"

Ming Wenlan was a little anxious and argued: "But when he was in West Lake, he saved his granddaughter's life, isn't his granddaughter's life as good as Ming Yulou's?"

Old Man Ming snorted and said coldly: "One yard to one yard, at most, I will let this kid die more comfortably and not suffer any pain, that is." ”

Ming Wenlan still wanted to argue, but the old man suddenly said in a fierce voice: "You girl, this time I originally left you at home and didn't allow you to go out, you sneaked here quietly, this is already a big mistake, and now you actually ignore the blood debt of my Ming family and open your mouth to intercede for an outsider, do you really think I dare not punish you?"

Seeing that the old man suddenly turned his face, Ming Wenlan didn't dare to speak any more, pouted and lowered his head.

Old Man Ming said coldly: "You will leave immediately, go back to Jiangnan's house, and dare to say half a word more, see how I clean you up!"

Ming Wenlan lowered her head and didn't dare to squeak.

Old Man Ming raised his head and looked at the sky, and sighed: "It looks like a heavy rain is coming." ”
