Chapter 55: Intrigue
It is rare for pedestrians to be rainy and snowy.
Yamashita did not go to the Tiger Roar Hall directly. He knew very well what the secret book meant to the martial arts hall. Since the Tiger Roar Hall did not accept the food given by pity and did not have a deed, it was naturally even more impossible to sell the secret book and give it up.
Therefore, special means must be used.
He found Zhang Yuanchong and asked Zhang Yuanchong to come out and invite Tang Ye out.
Zhang Yuanchong looked reluctant.
Due to the murder of Sun Yuanlu, the Jingwuhui has already formed a blood feud with the Heilong Wushu Dangguan. If his behavior of doing things for the Japanese was discovered, he would definitely die without a place to bury him.
But Yamashita Moto was tough and said that this was an order. He promised that after the matter was completed, he would give ten small yellow croakers as rewards, and also promised greater benefits:
"Master Zhang, as long as you do things for us well, you will never treat you badly. After making contributions, you can help you apply for your household registration and make you a real Japanese person. By then, you and I will be a family."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanchong felt a little awkward and resistant at first, but then he thought it was pretty good: Nowadays, Japanese people are strong and their national strength is fierce, and even those foreigners dare not offend them. If they become Japanese people, wouldn’t they be able to leave sideways? From then on, they will no longer have to stay in the Jingwu Club and be careful everywhere...
If he failed to practice martial arts, he had already had other ideas.
Yamashita Moto struck while the iron was hot: "Master Zhang, my country of Japan is not so easy to be naturalized, it depends on your performance. In your proverb of Yanhuang, you say: If you miss this village, there will be no more store."
Zhang Yuanchong thought for a while and said, "Mr. Shanxia, it is not difficult to find an excuse to invite Tang Ye out. But his master and his master have passed away one after another. Can you wait a few days? Let's talk about it after the first seventh?"
When Yamashita heard this, he sighed regretfully: "It's really not the time to die."
A while ago, he conducted an investigation into the Tiger Roar Hall and naturally found out the details. He originally wanted to wield Tang Ye, lure the tiger away from the mountain, and then take down Wu Yishou and Yang Sanshou as hostages, so he would be sure of finding the secret.
Well, although these two people are dead, Tang Ye has a sister who can still be used to make a fuss.
So he said, "My de Miyamoto was urged to finish this matter as soon as possible. As the saying goes, 'It's not appropriate to be late'. His master and his master died, and he just took advantage of the situation. Anyway, you can just call him out. Don't go far, just go and go to the restaurant at the intersection of the setting sun to avoid suspicion."
Zhang Yuanchong had no choice but to be the other party, and he could only follow his fate. Anyway, he had reached this point, so he would just let go. As long as he became a Japanese man, he would naturally be very popular and delicious.
The two began to conspire in a low voice to discuss specific time details and various arrangements.
...
"Fifth Master Uncle, I've had a meal."
The little mute knocked on the door and then pushed it gently. The door was covered in a false sense and was pushed open with a babbling sound.
Zhao Wushou squatted in the corner, his hair disheveled, and suddenly raised his head, his eyes looked faint, like a wild beast.
There is a bed in the room, but he has never slept on it at all. He always slept on the ground. He doesn't need bedding or something, and he just spreads a thick layer of straw, etc.
It looks like a nest for animals.
However, it does not appear dirt or dirty.
Because the little mute helps him clean up every day.
At the beginning, Zhao Wushou only listened to Wu Yishou and Yang Sanshou's words, and no one should be close to others. But after spending a long time together, he slowly accepted Tang Ye and Xiao Muba.
Looking at Zhao Wushou, the little mute advised softly: "Uncle Fifth Master, you haven't had a meal for two days. Come out and make your favorite mushroom fried chicken today."
Zhao Wushou buried his head again.
The little mute sighed and had to leave, find a large basin, serve a basin of rice, pour chicken sauce, then pour meat and vegetables on it, bring it over, and place it on the empty bed: "Uncle Fifth Master, eat something, don't get hungry."
After saying that, I went out and brought it to my door.
After a while, Zhao Wushou slowly raised his head and crawled over on all sides. Without using chopsticks, he buried his head in the big basin and ate it with big mouthfuls, as if he was a very hungry beast.
Outside the door, the little mute was pressing against the door. He heard a voracious chewing sound. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.
She was very worried that this meal would be the same as the previous few times, and Zhao Wushou ignored it at all and stayed there without moving a grain of rice.
As long as he stutters and eats, it will be easy.
When he returned to the dining room, Tang Ye was waiting there and saw the little mute smiling happily: "Is the fifth uncle willing to eat?"
The little mute said "yes".
Tang Ye was also happy. His master and his master passed away, leaving behind a fifth uncle who could not speak and crawled and walked. He either felt it was troublesome or he didn't know how to take good care of him, and it was difficult to communicate and felt a headache.
In winter, it’s dark early and dinner is also early. After dinner, the little mute is busy cleaning up.
There was a knock on the door outside.
Tang Ye frowned and went to open the door. He saw Zhang Yuanchong standing outside: "Master Tang, I'm upset."
"Is there something wrong?"
Tang Ye has no good impression of this person.
Zhang Yuanchong hurriedly said, "That's right. I'm helping you find a new place and relocate the martial arts center. I've found it, so I'll be an owner tonight. Please come over and ask him to talk to you in person. After the talks, sign the contract immediately."
Tang Ye looked at him with a burning look, seeing Zhang Yuanchong feels guilty, he said in a hint: "I am deeply sad about Wu Guanguan and Brother Sanshou. Jingwu Association originally wanted to send representatives to pay their respects, but you also know that President Sun was beaten to death, making everything messy and messy..."
He paused and said with a look of regret: "Hey, I said it long ago, Japanese people are not easy to mess with."
Tang Ye snorted: "Do you have to come and discuss the matter about the house tonight?"
Zhang Yuanchong hurriedly said, "This owner is going to another place, so I'm anxious. I don't know if you want to change places, I just came to ask what you mean. After all, I heard Wu Guanguan say that the day that Hu Xiaoguan returned to Feixia Road was his lifelong wish and his third-hand brother. But he didn't expect that fate would make people go, and they suddenly disappeared... Hmm, Master Tang, if you don't want to move, I'll reply to the owner now."
Tang Ye pondered for a while and asked, "Where did you make an appointment?"
"It's just at Moshang Pavilion at the intersection, not far away."
Tang Ye knew that Mo Shangguan was an old tavern. He had gone there with his master to drink wine. The signature dish was a chowder stewed with iron pots. The wine was also real and the taste was very mellow.
"Okay, wait for me and I'll explain something."
"OK."
Zhang Yuanchong was overjoyed.
Tang Ye entered, took out a scarf and coat, took an umbrella, and told the little mute to come out and swept away with Zhang Yuan.
It was late, and the weather was raining and snowing, and the wind was blowing, it was very cold.
Tang Ye was not cold at all. The breath in his body slowly flowed, and the blood gradually evaporated, making him feel warm and very comfortable.
Soon, I arrived outside the Moshang Hall.
Looking at the brightly lit tavern, Tang Ye suddenly smiled, took the lead and walked in.
As soon as he entered, he saw Yamashita Moto.
