Chapter 82: The Embarrassed Thunderbolt
Lei Jiutian was looking at his cousin standing in front of him with a very curious look, the head hall master Lei Potian.
He had never seen Lei Potian in such an embarrassment.
Lei Potian seemed to have just escaped from a fire, and his clothes were only close-fitting profane clothes, and they were burned to holes, scorched smoke, and tattered.
Most of his beard and eyebrows were burned off, his gray hair was fluffy and messy by the fire, and his face was a little blackened, and he was even more angry.
In Lei Jiutian's impression, his cousin Lei Potian has always been so calm and relaxed, and he looks confident, and his appearance is extremely majestic, like a god.
Who could make him suffer such a big loss and make him so embarrassed? He was curious.
But he didn't dare to ask, and even he could only lower his head and stare at the ground in front of his feet, because he was afraid that Lei Potian would find that he was paying attention to his embarrassed appearance, and he was afraid of angering Lei Potian.
What kind of person Lei Potian is, he knows too well.
For the sake of power and for his own purposes, this person can even kill two biological brothers who are famous all over the world without hesitation, not to mention that he is just a cousin who has always been nameless.
He could only stare at the ground while reporting to Lei Potian what had happened on the street last night.
Lei Potian was listening quietly.
When he heard that Qian Peiguang, the head manager of the Heavenly Providence Building, led people to intercept the elite of the Lei family led by Lei Jiutian, he only moved his eyebrows and did not speak.
Heavenly Providence Tower is certainly a strong enemy, and it is not easy to provoke, but they will help Ye Feng and help the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, which was originally expected by him, so there is nothing to be surprised about.
But when he heard that Zhang Xin, the Marquis of Longping, suddenly arrived with troops and surrounded Lei Jiutian and them, this really surprised him.
Didn't Zhang Xin, Marquis of Longping, follow the holy decree to go to inspect the feudal domains of the world? Why did he appear in Hangzhou City at this time so coincidentally?
Since he still has soldiers and horses with him, he must have come prepared, so could it be that the momentum of this Longping Marquis Zhang Xin rushing to help him is not the Tang Gate in Shuzhong, nor is it a Heavenly Providence Building, but that person, Ye Feng?
Speaking of which, could it be said that the legend was true, that Ye Feng was really the chosen one? And behind him, there was an extremely strong force lurking behind him?
Lei Potian groaned, if so, maybe he had a new opportunity.
He looked up at Lei Jiutian who was standing aside.
Lei Jiutian had already finished reporting on last night's situation, and he felt a little uneasy about not being able to attack the Tang family's compound with the Lei family's elite as planned, but instead retreating, and he didn't know what Lei Potian would do with him?
Looking at his apprehensive look, Lei Potian felt a little funny.
Looks like he's taken it seriously!
He really thought that he would expect him to take those fifty Lei family elites to be able to capture the Tang family's compound and flatten the Jiangnan branch of the Tangmen in Shuzhong in one fell swoop.
In fact, the real purpose of arranging this was just to attract the attention of the Tang Sect and others, and to transfer all the forces defending the Tang family's compound to facilitate his own actions.
The reason why he chose this cousin Lei Jiutian, who has always been unknown, to preside over this operation is because this cousin has always acted cautiously and never made any mistakes, so he has never made any meritorious contributions. To put it mildly, he is timid enough.
This operation was originally an adventure, a gamble, Lei Potian gambled, the Lei family can now mobilize almost all the fifty elites, if they lose everything, the Lei family will definitely be greatly injured, even if there is a chance to make a comeback in the future, it will be difficult to compete with a strong enemy like the Tangmen in Shuzhong.
Therefore, he needs Lei Jiutian, he needs a timid and cautious person like Lei Jiutian, in Guan
The key will not be carried away by blood at any time, will not make senseless sacrifices, will not lose face, is not afraid of shame, and can bring back the last strength of the Lei family safely.
As it turned out, he was not wrong.
Lei Jiutian himself may not know, in fact, he was able to save those elites of the Lei family unharmed, and last night he was the person who made great contributions to the Lei family.
Although, in the end, Lei Potian's plan still failed, and he also lost his son's life.
However, these have nothing to do with Lei Jiutian, and he doesn't want Lei Jiutian to see the frustration in his heart.
He tried his best to suppress the feelings in his heart, and said to Lei Jiutian in a very gentle voice: "It's okay, Ninth Brother, you have done your best, but our opponents are too cunning, and I underestimate them, so I will fail." ”
Lei Potian didn't punish himself, and Lei Jiutian couldn't help but be a little surprised.
After a pause, Lei Potian added: "You did the right thing last night, you have a good sense of the overall situation, and if you can save these vital forces for the Lei family, you are the great hero of the Lei family." ”
Lei Potian is extremely strict under his rule, and he has always been known for his harshness and coldness, there are really few people in the world who can be praised by him in person, Lei Jiutian's heart suddenly flooded with joy, and he couldn't help but be happy.
He held back the joy in his heart, and said to Lei Potian respectfully: "The subordinates are just acting according to the orders of the head hall master, trying to figure out the deep meaning of the head hall master, and they don't dare to take credit. In the future, we should try our best to learn from the head of the hall, and dare not slack off in the slightest. ”
Lei Potian couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, what "try to guess the deep meaning of the hall master", my mind will be thoroughly understood by you, what do I, the hall master, eat?
But he couldn't show his disdain with Lei Jiutian, he just waved his hand at him and said, "You go, notify me, everyone is dormant during this time, once the time comes, I will naturally inform you." ”
Lei Jiutian hung his head and responded, "Yes!"
He didn't dare to look up at Lei Potian's embarrassed appearance, so he turned around and left, probably this is what Lei Potian wants to do most now. Who wants to have a nasty person by their side when they're at their worst?
So he'd better get out of here.
While walking, he was still reminiscing about the joy when he was praised by Lei Potian just now, vaguely, he seemed to see him in the Great Lei Gate, in the Lei family, the future of the soaring, unlimited splendid future.
Looking at his jubilant back as he left, Lei Potian couldn't help but sigh, it was really the great general Liao Hua in Shu, who was once full of talents and proud of the world's heroes, how did it fall to such a point today?
However, in this battle, although he was defeated, it was not without gain.
Two of the three major hall masters of the Tang Gate in Shuzhong died, Tang Yu and Tang Li, a thousand hands Tang Yu and Rouge Tang Li, and a fourteen young Tang Yu who was regarded as a confidant by the old lady, and even Tang Ying among the three wonders of the famous Tang Gate also gave his life, and the Tang Gate in Shuzhong suddenly seemed to collapse half of the sky, presumably at this time, Mrs. Tang must have been heartbroken like a knife, and tears were in her eyes, right?
Thinking of making the eccentric old woman who made the whole world famous for her color change thunderous, her heart ached, and Lei Potian felt a little happy in her heart.
It's a pity that this time he lost his son's life.
Thinking of his son Lei Yuyun, Lei Potian's heart suddenly felt an irrepressible sourness, son, don't hate your father, your father has no choice!
In that situation at that time, Lei Potian must go, only if Lei Potian is gone, the Lei family can continue to maintain the hope of a comeback in the future, and the only way for Lei Potian to block Taishan Jiang Mubai's incomparable sword at that time was to sacrifice his son.
Son, who told you that you were born to be a descendant of the Lei family? Therefore, you must be ready to sacrifice yourself for the Lei family at any time!
Lei Potian recalled that at the beginning, Lei Yuyun and Lei Zhuoyun, the two children, had been happy in front of him since they were children, and watched them grow up little by little, but he didn't expect that this time, both of them would give their lives, and they would be separated from their yin and yang forever!
The unbearable sourness in my heart made the pain in my body hit again.
He stretched out his hand to cover his chest that was in severe pain, unable to straighten his waist, and secretly marveled in his heart, he couldn't imagine that Tang Lei's power could be so powerful!
He watched the scorching fireball that erupted from the black iron pipe in Tang Qiu's hand, and he also saw with his own eyes how the fireball burst into a huge fire net in the air, and how the fragments of the fireball hit his chest and knocked down the large tree behind him.
If it weren't for the "Deadly Red Robe", one of the two treasures of the Tang Sect, I am afraid that I would have become a scorched corpse like a fisherman in the East China Sea.
But even with the protection of the deadly big red robe, the fragment still broke one of his ribs, and the flame mixed with the Western Regions stone and oil was also very weird, and even the big red robe, which was invulnerable, burned himself to the ground, and finally had to be discarded along with the deadly big red robe that was burned beyond recognition.
However, the big red robe is worthy of being a talisman armor, it is enough to protect it for a moment and a half, which is enough for him to rush forward and smash Tang Qiu's head with one palm.
Tang Qiu died like this, and his mysterious weapon, Tang Lei, also fell into his hands.
How excited and ecstatic Lei Potian was at that time?
If he can get the help of a powerful weapon like Tang Lei, Hugh said that a small Tang Sect in Shuzhong, even if he wants to sit in the south and face the north in the future and dominate the world, what is the difficulty?
But when he took a brief look at the black iron pipe in his hand, he couldn't help but be disappointed.
The Lei family is proficient in firearms, and has been an enemy of the Tangmen in Shuzhong for many years, and he also has a certain understanding of the technique of bracketing, and he found at a glance that the black iron pipe in his hand is just a kind of bracket for firing fireballs.
The real Tang Lei, the real mystery, all on top of that fireball!
It's a pity that what Lei Potian gets now is just this black iron pipe, which is no different from scrap metal in his hands!
Lei Potian was extremely disappointed, and until just now, he was very depressed.
But when he listened to Lei Jiutian's report, he suddenly had another idea in his heart.
Ye Feng is Ye Feng!
Lei Potian knew that the reason why the Tangmen in Shuzhong and the Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall secretly jointly developed Tang Lei twenty years ago was entirely because of this drawing taken out by the imperial court.
And the drawings are related to the secret treasure that the Tang Sect has been secretly protecting.
From this point of view, among that treasure, there must be more than this one and many more powerful weapon drawings like Tang Lei.
If the prophecy is true, if Ye Feng is really the chosen son, then he will eventually open this legendary treasure, no matter who this treasure is, it will change fate, change the world, and change this era.
Come to think of it, the powerful force hiding behind Ye Feng must have the same idea, coming for this mysterious treasure.
Lei Potian sat down holding his chest in severe pain, just now he was still holding himself up in front of Lei Jiutian, but now he only felt that he couldn't stand in pain.
He looked into the distance and thought, "Why can't I get a piece of the pie?"
The Tang Sect in Shuzhong has guarded the treasure for so many years, perhaps, only this truly powerful force can defeat them and make the treasure appear.
Once in this world, it is still unknown who will kill the deer!
The more Lei Potian thought about it, the more excited he became, and even the pain in his chest seemed to be gradually forgotten, and he only felt a passion that he had never felt before surging in his chest.
Ye Feng, let's see in the future!
