Chapter 171(1/2)
Before meeting Mr. Hu, the old man evacuated the villagers watching the fun, and looked at the red mushrooms and pheasants on Biaozi's hand: "Is this a gift for Mr. Hu?"
Biaozi nodded and explained: "It was the two of them who brought it from Wild Boar Ridge and said they would make chickens and stew mushrooms for Mr. Tiger."
"nice one!"
The old man praised him, stretched out his right hand, and ordered: "Take it to me, I'll bring it to Mr. Tiger."
Biaozi smiled and said, "Uncle Ze, let me leave this kind of physical work."
It turns out that the old man is called Uncle Ze, and this is Zhangjiazhuang. Maybe it is called Zhang Ze?
Uncle Ze said lightly: "You go down too, I will take these two guests to see Mr. Tiger in person."
Biaozi was stunned for a moment, pulled Uncle Ze, and reminded softly: "Uncle Ze, it's not that I, Biaozi, is that this man surnamed Du and this man Yang are really not good people. If they have bad intentions, they will suddenly start..."
Before he finished speaking, Uncle Ze sneered: "If they suddenly take action, can you help me?"
Biaozi suddenly lost his words. Although he was a little reckless, it could be seen that Du Yong and Yang Jin were not ordinary people. The sword on Yang Jin's waist was worth at least a few hundred taels of silver.
Uncle Ze waved his hand: "Go down!"
Biaozi had no choice but to nod and retreat honestly.
The scene finally calmed down, and there were only Uncle Ze, Du Yong, Yang Jin, and a carriage on the road.
Uncle Ze led the way: "Let's go!"
Du Yong and Yang Jin didn't say much, followed behind, did not take a carriage, and walked slowly.
Uncle Ze praised while walking: "Brother Du and Brother Yang dare to stay in Wild Boar Ridge overnight, they are both talented and bold people!"
Yang Jin said modestly: "I dare not take it. We don't know that there is danger in Wild Boar Ridge, and in fact, we did not encounter any danger."
Uncle Ze smiled: "You are a little lucky. The wild boars in Wild Boar Ridge are indeed a bit powerful. If wild boars raid in groups, even though Brother Yang has the ability to climb the tower realm and even though Brother Du is the best among the seal engravers, it is difficult to get benefits."
Du Yong and Yang Jin were shocked at the same time.
Unexpectedly, Uncle Ze looked like an old farmer, and he could see the level of Yang Jin and Du Yong at a glance. His eyesight alone made many old-fashioned people in the world beyond the reach of them.
Du Yong calmed down and chuckled, "Uncle Ze said, "We are indeed a little lucky, so we can meet Uncle Ze today and talk to us."
Uncle Ze suddenly turned around, his hunched body suddenly straightened, and a terrifying light emanated from his turbid eyes.
Du Yong and Yang Jin both felt the pressure.
Uncle Ze is not an ordinary old farmer?
Definitely a very powerful expert.
Uncle Ze said in a deep voice: "I'm not talking to you."
After saying that, he turned around and continued to move forward. He obviously said half of this, which made people feel itchy and gave people an unfathomable impression.
Du Yong and Yang Jin were all full of questions, but it was difficult to ask.
After leaving silently for a while, Du Yong couldn't help it and whispered indirectly: "Uncle Ze, you don't look like an old farmer. You should be famous in the world, right?"
Uncle Ze asked with interest: "Why do you say that?"
Yang Jin continued: "Depending on Uncle Ze's demeanor, he is at least a master of Jin Destruction Realm. How can such a master be unfamous?"
"Jin's destruction?"
Uncle Ze sighed and smiled faintly, "I can only say that he was once the Jin Dynasty's destruction realm, but now he is old!"
old?
Although Uncle Ze is over 60 years old, for warriors, he has just entered his peak at this age. If he maintains good, he can last for twenty to twenty-five years, or even longer.
Just like Taibao Qu Wuru, he is already in his eighties this year, but no one says he is old because his martial arts have not regressed at all, but are gradually becoming stronger. Many people say that Qu Taibao's peak period can last until after the age of 100, which is also an important reason why Qu Taibao is called the mainstay of the court.
Yang Jin thought for a while: "Uncle Ze, what serious injuries have you suffered before?"
Uncle Ze praised: "You have a lot of eyesight."
Yang Jin shook his head and was modest: "It's not that I have good eyesight for younger generations, but just follow the speculation."
At this time, he had already reached the foot of the mountain, and Uncle Ze took the two of them to a rather remote open space to stop.
Du Yong looked around the open side, and felt very strange in his heart. He asked, "Uncle Ze, aren't you going to see Mr. Hu? What are you taking us here for?"
Yang Jin was secretly on guard.
To be honest, if Uncle Ze suddenly got angry, Yang Jin would not have much confidence to stop him.
According to Yang Jin's own estimate, if he and Du Yong join forces, if they can hold back Uncle Ze, it will be considered a blessing in family. If there is another tough character in the middle, he and Du Yong will have to fall into this Zhangjiazhuang.
Uncle Ze said lightly: "Of course I want to ask clearly what you want to do when you come to Zhangjiazhuang. After all, Mr. Hu is old and has not liked to meet strangers in recent years."
Du Yong said seriously: "Uncle Ze, we are really entrusted by someone to bring things to Mr. Hu and repay his kindness."
Uncle Ze stared at Du Yong coldly and did not reply.
Du Yong did not lie and had a clear conscience, so he was very natural and fearless under Uncle Ze's gaze.
Uncle Ze stared for a long time and said lightly: "Who is the one who wants to repay the kindness? Who is his surname?"
Du Yong replied honestly: "That man is called Weishan."
"Weishan!"
After hearing the name, Uncle Ze half-closed his eyes and asked, "Is it the stupid guy who is playing tricks?"
Du Yong was amused when he heard this: "He is indeed quite burly, and he is one head taller than ordinary people."
Uncle Ze snorted coldly and continued to ask, "Is that kid not dead yet?"
Hearing this tone, he knew that Wei Shan had no good impression of Uncle Ze. Du Yong carefully said, "It shouldn't be dead yet, but the current situation is definitely not optimistic."
Uncle Ze had no expression on his face: "Why are you not optimistic?"
Du Yong said lightly: "This man in Weishan is a man who is a man who is a crime and is captured alive by Dali Temple. He explained some things and was released. The government will continue to stare at him, and the forces behind him who are betrayed will definitely not let him go. In addition, Qu Shaoqing of Dali Temple has deposed most of his martial arts, so if he wants to survive in the future, he must be cautious and even live like a mouse."
Uncle Ze looked at Du Yong and chuckled, "You know very well."
Du Yong shrugged and said lightly: "I know so clearly, of course there is a reason. Uncle Ze, don't you want to know who we are?"
Uncle Ze sneered: "I knew who you are long ago... Du Yong and Yang Jin, right?"
Du Yong and Yang Jin were frightened at the same time.
Although I never thought about deliberately concealing it, being told about the true identity without warning is really caught off guard.
Du Yong took a deep breath, gave a thumbs up, and smiled openly, "Uncle Ze is amazing, I wonder how you know?"
Uncle Ze sighed: "How else can you know? Zhang Yi will tell me."
Du Yong quickly asked, "Uncle Ze, Zhang Yi's family? I heard that his family was..."
Uncle Ze nodded: "I was killed, and there were no complete corpses when I died."
Du Yong and Yang Jin's faces changed drastically and their breathing became rapid. Although they were already mentally prepared, they were even more unacceptable to hearing the news with their own ears.
Yang Jinqiang calmed down and said hatefully: "Uncle Ze, who is it so cruel?"
Uncle Ze did not answer and looked at Du Yong.
Du Yong said in a deep voice: "Uncle Ze, Zhang Yi's family was destroyed, which should have a direct relationship with me. Please inform me of the detailed situation. People cannot be resurrected after death. Let's talk about it after being sad, but I must do the things that ask for my life."
Uncle Ze sighed with some relief: "Zhang Yi is right. He followed a good young man in the capital."
Du Yong shook his head and said with a bitter face: "I would rather have never seen him before, so he would not have encountered any dirty things from a wealthy family. I have to bear the greatest responsibility for this matter."
Uncle Ze waved his hand and comforted him: "This is the way of the world, you don't have to worry too much. Zhang Yi chose to go to the capital to explore, which was a difficult road. Even if he didn't go to your house to do things, he would go to other big families to do things. Danger is inevitable."
Yang Jin asked, "Uncle Ze, haven't you said exactly what's going on?"
Uncle Ze did not answer immediately, but asked back: "You were only coming to Zhangjiazhuang because of Wei Shan. Is that right? Is that true?"
Du Yong nodded: "It's indeed a coincidence."
Yang Jin explained: "When working in the Nanjiao, I met a fat boss. We asked him about the location of Zhangjiazhuang. After he answered, he mentioned Zhang Yi's affairs, but he did not go into details."
Uncle Ze said oh and turned forward: "Go to see Mr. Hu first. He is the most prestigious person in the village. I will talk about the matters of Zhang Yi family in detail then."
Du Yong and Yang Jin nodded and said yes, leading the horse to follow behind.
Most of the houses at the foot of the mountain are side by side. After all, the space is not large and it needs to be used reasonably. However, there is a house that is separate, covers a very large area and is quite luxuriously built.
The wall made of large stones has a large courtyard inside, covered with green trees and large blue bricks and tiles, making it look very rich.
Uncle Ze introduced: "This is the place where Zhuangzi usually gathers, and Mr. Hu usually lives here."
Du Yong nodded and asked, "Does Mr. Hu's family live here too?"
Uncle Ze said lightly: "Uncle Hu has no family, he usually lives alone."
"ah?"
Du Yong was a little surprised. Mr. Hu was already in his eighties and had no family. He lived alone, which would definitely be inconvenient. If he accidentally fell down, no one would take care of him.
Uncle Ze saw Du Yong's doubts and explained: "Uncle Hu's wife died early and did not leave her children. He was deeply in love, so he never reunited. Although he is old now, his health is still strong, and he has long been used to living alone. However, the people in the village have a tacit understanding. Every day, people will go to see Uncle Hu, give him some food and use, and even serve a bowl of soup."
This is also pretty good.
