Chapter 43: A Private Meeting
Coming out of the restaurant, Lei Xiaotu hiccuped loudly and walked in front contentedly.
Tang Yu followed behind him, smiling bitterly at the innocent and ignorant little girl in front of him.
This little girl can really eat!
This is Tang Yu's biggest impression of Lei Xiaotu.
There are not many people who can eat him ten taels of silver for a meal, you know, now a private teacher hired by a large family for his children is only fifty taels of silver a year.
He really wanted to meet this Lei Xiaotu's master now, he didn't feel sorry for money, but he wanted to know how this master master taught his apprentice so much, so ...... Extremely hungry.
At least, at the dinner table.
The streets of Hangzhou are full of people, busy and lively.
Lei Xiaotu was attracted by the dazzling vendors in front of her, what silk satin, clay candies, everything she felt so novel, jumping like a flower butterfly that had just entered the flowers, shuttling back and forth, lingering.
Tang Yu could only follow her.
He looked at the cheering Lei Xiaotu, and felt more and more that this little girl was cute.
At the head of the stone arch bridge in front, there is a vendor selling windmills, the colorful small windmills are turning in the autumn breeze, and they are beautiful in the sun.
Lei Xiaotu ran over with cheers, standing in front of the stall and playing with the windmill for a long time.
Tang Yu had no choice but to take out the silver and buy one for her, Lei Xiaotu cheered and said to him: "Big brother, you are really a good person!"
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly flickered, and she pointed behind Tang Yu and shouted, "Uncle, that uncle!"
Uncle, Tang Yu was stunned, will there be any acquaintances Lei Xiaotu knows in Hangzhou City?
He casually asked, "Which uncle?"
Lei Xiaotu pointed in the direction behind Tang Yu: "The uncle who lent me money." ”
Thunderclouds!
Tang Yu was shocked, and immediately turned his head, and in the crowd of people surging behind him, he vaguely saw a person with loose hair and black clothes, walking far away in the crowd.
But this is just a back, and there is no turning back, I don't know if it is a thunderstorm cloud.
Tang Yu's heart tightened, grabbed Lei Xiaotu's hand, and said, "Let's go and see this uncle of yours, okay?"
Lei Xiaotu hesitated: "But, but I don't have the money to pay him back." ”
Tang Yu's eyes kept staring at the man in black who was far away, and he patted his chest and said, "It's okay, I have it!"
Pulling Lei Xiaotu, Tang Yu struggled to squeeze through the crowd and followed the man in black from a distance.
The man in black didn't walk fast, so although there were many people on the street, Tang Yu could still keep an eye on him.
After crossing several streets, he came to a river, and suddenly lost sight of the man in black.
Tang Yu looked left and right, but there was no trace, he seemed to have disappeared suddenly.
Tang Yu was anxious in his heart, and suddenly Lei Xiaotu stopped, pointed to the other side of the river, and shouted: "That uncle, there!"
Tang Yu looked in the direction of her finger, and on the other side of the river, under a large willow tree, the man in black was standing there.
His hair was scattered, his facial features were faintly distorted, and he looked like he had an indescribable sense of evil, and there was a distinct red mark between his eyebrows.
That's right, he's a thunderstorm!
Tang Yu's heart was shocked, it seemed
Everything that had been guessed before was confirmed, and with the appearance of the long-missing thunderstorm cloud, all doubts seemed to be solved.
The real culprit behind all the scenes is this thunderstorm cloud that should have died under the finger of Fan Shanggu in Huashan, he survived and survived, but in order to revive the fallen Great Thunder Gate, he made the rivers and lakes bloody again, and everyone was in danger.
Now, Tang Yu's heart is down-to-earth, knowing who the opponent is is is always a good thing, it is much better than being blindfolded and being led by the nose.
What's more, the Tangmen of Shuzhong has never lacked challenging opponents, and it has never been afraid of any opponent.
Lei Yuyun may have picked the wrong opponent this time.
Tang Yu hid himself in the crowd and quietly watched the thunderstorm clouds on the other side of the river.
He was very curious, why did Lei Yuyun dare to swagger through the market at this time, wasn't he afraid that the secret sentinel of the Tang Gate would find out his whereabouts?
Unless, unless he has a reason to appear, he must see that he must be a person.
Tang Yu was patient, he wanted to see what Lei Yuyun was going to do next?
Lei Xiaotu was a little impatient at this time, and asked a little strangely: "Big brother, why are you always staring at that uncle here?
Tang Yu turned his head and asked her, "Do you have the money to pay him back now?"
Lei Xiaotu shook his head and said, "No?"
Tang Yuqi said: "Then what do you give back to others?"
Lei Xiaotu looked at Tang Yu and said, "Big brother, you have it, you can pay off the debt for Little Rabbit." ”
Tang Yu was stunned: "Why should I pay off your debts for you?"
Lei Xiaotu replied childishly: "Because you promised that Little Rabbit will follow you in the future, so you have to pay off the debt for Little Rabbit." ”
Tang Yu couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, what kind of logic is this?
But he really didn't have the energy or the way to further discuss this issue with Lei Xiaotu, he could only say: "But the money on the eldest brother has been given for food, and now there is no money to pay back to that uncle." ”
Lei Xiaotu asked very seriously, "Really?"
Tang Yu's face was serious: "Really." ”
Lei Xiaotu's face immediately turned into panic: "Then let's go, I said that I would pay him back the next time we meet, and now if he asks us to go into debt, how embarrassing it will be." ”
Tang Yu only felt angry and funny in his heart, and the embarrassment was also your Lei Xiaotu's embarrassment, what are you doing with me?
However, he still said to Lei Xiaotu seriously: "Let's follow and see where this uncle lives first, and only when we have money can we send it back to others." This is also the minimum integrity!"
Lei Xiaotu nodded again and again after hearing this, and said: "Yes, yes, the master often says that you must be trustworthy in life, and you must repay the money you borrow. ”
So she stayed quietly aside, not disturbing Tang Yu anymore.
Tang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, this little girl was really troublesome to deal with.
But I don't know why, Tang Yu's heart didn't feel annoyed by Lei Xiaotu at all, but felt quite interesting, with an indescribable sense of novelty.
After pacifying Lei Xiaotu, Tang Yu turned his head to look at the thunderstorm clouds on the other side of the river.
The thunderstorm clouds were still there, and he seemed to be waiting for someone, with a hint of anxiety on his face.
Who is he waiting for?
Tang Yu felt more and more curious.
Then he saw the man.
The man walked over to Thundercloud's side, and the two began to talk
。
This person is dressed in women's clothes, wearing a beaded hairpin, and his face is smeared with thick rouge, this person Tang Yu not only knows, but is also very familiar with it.
Rouge Tang Li!
Tang Yu felt shocked.
Tang Li is his sixteenth uncle and one of the three major hall masters of the Tang Gate in Shuzhong.
Although he is a little deviant, maverick, and intolerable to the world's eyes, he has made great achievements for the Tang Sect, and he is also one of the most powerful subordinates of the old lady of the Tang Sect.
How could he suddenly come to the river alone to meet the thunderstorms?
Is he the one who has to be seen at the risk of being exposed by the thunderstorm clouds?
Tang Yu's heart gradually felt heavy, he remembered the traitor in the old lady's mouth, the spy hidden in the middle of the high-ranking Tang Sect in Shuzhong, could it really be him?
It was he who betrayed Tang Da, and after Tang Da met him, he was constantly intercepted by mysterious killers along the way, precisely because he leaked Tang Da's whereabouts.
It was also he who was responsible for monitoring the main hall of Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall, responsible for receiving and assisting Tang Ying to control Lei Zhuoyun, and now that these two people are missing, Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall exists in name only.
The last thing Tang Ying ate before he disappeared was supposed to be that plate of mutton buns. If it was said that the bun was secretly sent by Tang Yu to poison Tang Ying, it would be too far-fetched.
Hangzhou City is his Tang Li's territory, he has already monitored and controlled the whole city, if Tang Yu has such behavior, he will never know about it.
There is also the secret passage in Lei Zhuoyun's room, Tang Yu believes that Tang Li must have seen it a long time ago, but he never said a word, and he never mentioned a word about the secret passage, why is this?
All of this is combined, and too many coincidences are no longer coincidences.
Tang Yu's heart was gradually sinking, in fact, he had always admired this maverick sixteenth uncle in his heart.
But now, seeing him meet privately with the great enemy of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, Lei Yuyun, the remnant of the Great Lei Gate, Tang Yu also had to admit that the traitor in the old lady's mouth must be him.
Rouge Tang Li, he dared to betray the Tang Sect!
Tang Yu felt that there was gradually a fire burning in his heart, and he didn't know if it was because of his disappointment in Tang Li, or because of the remorse and anger that he had always been blind to himself and mistrusted others.
Tang Li and Lei Yuyun met for a short time and didn't talk much, but judging from the look on Tang Li's face, Lei Yuyun was shocked by the news he told him.
What did the thunderclouds tell him?
No matter what it was, I was afraid that it was far less shocking than Tang Yu, who was watching them meet from a distance on the other side of the river.
The thunderstorm clouds quickly turned away.
Tang Li stood in place for a moment, and then quietly left.
Lei Xiaotu looked at the departing thunderstorm clouds at this time, and asked Tang Yu, "That uncle is gone, should we follow?"
Tang Yu shook his head.
Lei Xiaotu was surprised: "Didn't you say you want to know where he lives?
Tang Yu shook his head and said, "No need, we don't have to go to him at all, he will come to the door by himself." There are some things that you can't hide even if you want to. ”
Lei Xiaotu looked at Tang Yu as if he didn't understand, and didn't ask any further.
Tang Yu looked at the figure of Rouge Tang Li at this time, and it was difficult to suppress the fire in his heart.
Now there is something more important than dealing with thunderstorms, and that is to clear the portal!
