Chapter 204 Will be rich and powerful

Not long after Zhang Zhong and the others left, Tang Li also appeared on Dashigang riding a horse. 【】

Du Ruhui's movement and Zhang Zhong's movement in the valley fell into her eyes.

Du Ruhui didn't seem to be on guard that someone was watching them from the dark, they took a leisurely attitude, completely unaware that death was just around the corner.But why did Su San say: Du Ruhui must know that someone is following them?And since Du Ruhui knew that someone was following him, why did he take it easy?

Tang Li followed Zhang Zhong and the others and disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.So he rode his horse back to the stone hillock, rolled over Du Ruhui's carriage, and followed all the way.

Zhang Zhong had more than 20 people, while Du Ruhui only had seven or eight people. If there was a fight, Du Ruhui might not escape the fate of death.

Tang Li pretended to be a lone traveler, and followed far away thoughtfully, neither leaning forward nor being left too far behind.In the distance, there were four people who looked like guards, riding horses, approaching them unhurriedly. Tang Li pulled the horses and walked to the side.

The badges of the He Mansion were all hung on the chests of the four guards, and it was immediately known that they were the guards of the He Mansion.In Wuling City, there are not many mansions that can use this emblem, so it is easy to recognize.

Tang Li pressed down on the brim of her hat, and secretly glanced at the four of them. She already guessed that this was the guard of the He residence who escorted Du Ruhui out of the city, so she gave way slightly, and Er Xiangli crossed over.

In my ears, I heard several people discussing how to spend the 20 taels of silver that I just got at night.Tang Li gently pinched the horse's belly, causing the horse to trot.

It was mid-afternoon, and there were many pedestrians on the road.After turning to the official road in the north of the city, there are more pedestrians. This is the avenue leading to Jinling, and the traffic is the most frequent.After riding a few steps, Tang Li came to a tea shed by the side of the road.

Tang Li dismounted, tied the horse to the horse post in front of the shed, and walked into the tea shed.

There were quite a lot of people in the tea shed, and some well-informed publicized there: all four gates of Wuling City are closed, and I don't know what happened in the city, and there was never a reason to close the city at this hour.

Tang Li ordered a cup of tea, and was not in a hurry to chase after Du Ruhui and the others.People from Lin Hailu followed, but Du Ruhui couldn't run away from those people.The most she can do is to play the autumn wind and pick up a cheap thing.

"Niuzi, hurry up and make tea. Believe it or not, I will tear up that torn book of yours." The old shopkeeper heard Tang Li's greeting, and when Niuzi died holding a torn book, he didn't even think about it. He wanted to greet the guests, so he cursed loudly.

Niu Zi was taken aback, quickly stuffed the book into his arms, and stepped forward to greet Tang Li.

A guest laughed and said, "Old shopkeeper, your son's book is a good thing, what are you doing to stop him?"

The shopkeeper explained: "As for my son, he can read a few words. However, since last time, a fortune teller came to the shed, he seemed to be possessed by a demon, and he did not know where to find a tattered book. Books that look like ghostly symbols, I just stare at them every day, I'm afraid I'm really possessed."

Niu Zi shouted from the side, "Grandpa, just wait, you can say 'Little Immortal', my son is destined to be rich and powerful. Sooner or later he won't be here to serve this tea shed."

When everyone saw Niu Zi pushing his father, some people laughed loudly, "Old shopkeeper, my son is smart, and he will definitely become rich. You, hurry up and close this stall, go home and raise it."

Niu Zi asked Tang Li what tea she wanted to drink, and quickly brewed a pot, but said to the guest: "No, the old man is not willing to part with it, so he insists on arresting the boy here too. Earn some money by selling tea. Can a small amount of money make you rich? Boy, you can’t open and close someone’s mouth.”

The old man scolded, "You are sneaking into the eyes of money, thinking about fortune-telling all day long, you are not that material, he doesn't have that fate."

Niu Zi stuck his neck back and said: "You are not a god, you have the final say on whether you have a fortune teller or not; besides, whether it is the material or not, you have no say, Dad."

Everyone shouted 'OK' together, and someone asked, "Yes, yes, old man, what you say doesn't count, but what we say counts. Brother, you do the math, this is not a war, and I have never heard of it. What's going on, why is the city gate closed, and we are kept out for no reason. It's right, I'll name you today."

Another human said, "That's right, tell me when will the city gate reopen?"

Niu Zi really rested his hands and stood in the shed to open it. After a long time, everyone asked him if it was all right, so he slapped his hands and said, "Forget it. This city gate will be opened tomorrow."

"Scared. It's up to you? If you don't open the city gate tomorrow, don't the city become a mess? Unless the Jing people hit the city, it's almost the same."

Niu Zi said, "You guessed it, the little one said it, but you calculated it; do you mean that you can guarantee that this city gate will not be opened after a while? I dare to say that this city gate will not open this afternoon." None will open."

The guest saw that he had something to say in such a retort, so he could only ask, "Then do the math, what happened to close the city gate?"

Niu Zi smiled but with a straight face, he said seriously, "The gate of this city is not closed at all, and today is a sunny day alone, so this should be in the word 'ambiguous'. All of you here, I am afraid I've read the book, what does the word "暴" mean, I'm afraid I don't need to talk about it? Therefore, the closing of the city gate is inseparable from the word "您". Either someone concealed something; or someone Offended something, so the city gate will be closed."

It sounds reasonable, not like nonsense.Then someone asked: "What is it specifically, can you tell me?"

Niu Zi hurriedly waved his hands and said, "If you don't have enough skill, it doesn't matter how specific you are." Seeing that everyone was going to laugh at him again, he changed his tone and said, "However, there is a verse."

Everyone was hooked back by his words, forgot to laugh at him, and listened to him.

Niu Zi stroked his forehead and said in a flash of inspiration: "Mist is not fog, and flowers are not flowers."

After hearing this gatha, everyone seemed to have some meaning, so they stopped laughing at Niu Zi, and it was right to treat it as a joke.

Tang Li drank two cups of tea, paid the money for the tea, got up and went out, but suddenly heard Niu Zi's last sentence, she let go of the horse's reins, and paused involuntarily.Why are these words so familiar?

It seems that the third master said it last night.

'Du Ruhui must know that Lin Hailu will not let him go when he is outside the city.Therefore, you need to pay attention, Du Ruhui is not a person who is willing to teach you, you have to be careful about any of his actions.Flowers are not flowers, and fog is not fog. Sometimes, what you have arrived may not be true, and what has not arrived may not be false. '

Thinking of Su San's words, Tang Li couldn't help but feel moved. 'No, the four people who left just now may not all be from He Fu.Maybe Du Ruhui was among them?It's all because I glanced at it randomly, and didn't think about it at all, so I didn't make a careful distinction. If Du Ruhui was there, wouldn't it be let him escape? '

Together with this thought, the more Tang Li thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became.Take a look at the site carefully.He thought: If Du Ruhui was still in the carriage, Lin Hailu's people would definitely not be able to spare him.There are so many of them, one more than myself, not many.I might as well follow those four people and check thoroughly, is there any Du Ruhui among those four people?

Yes, just do it.
