Chapter 25 Hua Xiao Si
Tang Yi cursed the shrew just now in his heart, and then cried to himself repeatedly, "It's so unlucky. If you are not careful, you will be framed by the stinky Taoist priest and become a thief. Now I have to pretend to be a beggar to hide my identity. What a bumpy experience. Why is my life so miserable?"
"But then again, who is the emperor today? I don't even know who the emperor is, so how could I rebel? What a court, what a bunch of waste with pig brains!" Tang Yi cursed a few words to vent his anger.
But at this moment, there were various small vendors next to the street, and many delicious food smells came. Tang Yi touched his empty stomach and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
But Tang Yi has now put on makeup and become a beggar. If he goes to beg for food, it will be a shame for him! Telling a killer to beg for food? Tang Yi will never accept it.
At this time, a group of people happened to pass by in groups of three or five nearby. The clothes they were wearing were dirtier than Tang Yi’s! They were even more torn! But undoubtedly, they were also beggars! Or real beggars!
Tang Yi had no idea about those people, but those people accidentally saw Tang Yi.
The group of people thought Tang Yi was also his own, so they walked towards Tang Yi in a familiar way. One of the leading beggars said, "Little brother, look at you, which branch are you from?"
"Ah?" Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the other party meant, but he subconsciously said: "Hello brothers, I came from Jiangdong City."
"Oh, it turns out they are brothers from the Dongcheng Branch! Hello, my name is Hua Xiaosi, and the two behind me are my friends." Hua Xiaosi said.
At the same time, the two beggars behind Hua Xiaosi also introduced themselves respectively.
Although Tang Yi didn't understand what was going on, he thought that he was now a wanted criminal in the court and a framed thief, and his name was written on the wanted order in black and white, so he could not tell them under his real name at the moment.
So Tang Yi said, "My name is Yi!"
"What...one?" Hua Xiaosi laughed: "Haha, what's the name here? This is the first time I have mentioned such a strange name."
"Yes, I'll call you." Tang Yi smiled.
Hua Xiaosi is a generous person. When he first saw that Tang Yi had a good character, he thought he was all his family, so he said, "Then I will call you Xiaoyi from now on, and you can call me Fourth Brother! How about it?"
"Okay, Fourth Brother!" Tang Yi greeted with a smile.
At this time, a gurgling sound came from Tang Yi's abdomen.
Tang Yi laughed awkwardly, and everyone laughed.
Hua Xiaosi said, "Xiaoyi, you haven't eaten yet, are you? You are very lucky today. My fourth brother is about to take your brothers to have a big meal! How about it? Do you want to be with us too?"
"Big meal?" Tang Yi was slightly stunned. He looked at the image of Hua Xiaosi and his group of people, not like people who could have a big meal. He asked curiously: "What kind of meal is it? Are leftovers?"
"Leftover rice? No, no! Xiaoyi, you may have misunderstood. Is the fourth brother the kind of person who takes you to eat soy sauce? Obviously not!" Hua Xiaosi smiled and said, "Today, the fourth brother is going to take you to eat delicacies! Hahaha~"
"Really or not?" Tang Yi saw Hua Xiaosi's friends cheering and laughing around him. Tang Yi was half-believing and half-doubting. Can they really take them to eat delicacies?
Hua Xiaosi said to Tang Yi and two other friends: "Come with me, I know a particularly hidden passage, and I promise that no one will find it!"
"..." Tang Yi felt something was wrong, but he still followed him. He also wanted to see what delicacies this Hua Xiaosi could take him to eat.
So Tang Yi followed them around and came to a small alley near the ancient river. The terrain here was extremely remote and the width of the alley was very narrow, which was not conducive to the vendors who needed to occupy land.
And there are no vendors in this kind of place who are willing to come, so there must be very few pedestrians. No wonder Hua Xiaosi is so confident.
But Tang Yi knew that Hua Xiaosi's last sentence just now said that he promised not to be discovered. Tang Yi guessed that the delicacies that Hua Xiaosi mentioned were most likely to be something shameful.
Sure enough, Tang Yi saw Hua Xiaosi and the others secretly approaching a high wall.
Hua Xiaosi searched along the left side of the high wall and finally stopped at a pile of weeds. He quickly pushed the weeds away, and a dog hole was exposed on the wall that could accommodate a person passing through!
He said, "Look, we can climb in from here, and the delicacies are inside!"
"Second brother, how did you discover this passage? I have been wandering around here, but I never knew there was a passage here." Hua Xiaosi's friend said in surprise.
Tang Yi walked over with a cold expression and asked lightly: "Hey, are you trying to go in and steal something?"
"Xiaoyi, do you know who lives here?" Hua Xiaosi suddenly asked.
Tang Yi said: "This high wall is so long, the construction cost is definitely not low. I guess the one living in it is a wealthy family, right?"
"Haha, right! You just came here from the Dongcheng branch, right? Maybe you don't know the situation in Nancheng. There is a wealthy family, Hua Yuanwai! He is a jewelry merchant. He is a rich rich man in our Jiangnan City!" Hua Xiaosi said endlessly: "Let me tell you! This Hua Yuanwai usually does evil in the fish and meat village! Their various crimes are outrageous! You are also obvious to all. Hua Yuanwai has been bullying the people a lot in this life. Our Beggars' Sect is a famous sect at least! He is a hero and brave man in the world. This is what every member of our Beggars' Sect should do!"
"Well said it well! Fourth brother said it well!" Hua Xiaosi's friends applauded.
He just put his hands on his chest, and was speechless: "So your heroic and righteousness are going to steal food from their house?"
"Don't say it so badly! Xiaoyi, don't worry, I often go here, it's very familiar. I can guarantee that everyone will not be discovered by people inside!" Hua Xiaosi patted his chest and promised.
Tang Yi actually had no objection from the beginning, he was just curious. Now with Hua Xiaosi's guarantee, Tang Yi still dared not be careless. Since Lan Fangcao framed him, he has become particularly cautious.
Hua Xiaosi took his two friends into the dog hole, but Tang Yi jumped up and climbed over the high wall to enter.
This is an idle place in the backyard of Washington, with weeds growing, and almost no one in Washington will come here.
Hua Xiaosi took them through various "dangerous roads", and they were not discovered by people from Washington. It seems that Hua Xiaosi does come here often to "pay".
