At six o'clock the next morning, Tang Jifeng, Li Jingwei and Tang Qiushui arrived at Tong Sihai's residence on time.

Tong Sihai had already asked people to prepare a sumptuous breakfast, and after several people ate breakfast together, they rushed towards Hongmen Hall.

This hall in Hongmen was originally a garment factory owned by a Chinese. Later, because importing clothing from Huaxia was cheaper and of better quality than producing it himself, he closed the factory, concentrated on design, and outsourced production to Huaxia manufacturers.

Hongmen later acquired the factory and slightly remodeled it as a hall for Hongmen in New York. In fact, Hongmen has several halls in New York, and the main hall is not here.

Sato Takeshita found this place because it was this hall he challenged fifteen years ago. At that time, this hall was used as the main hall of New York because it was in Chinatown, which was a Chinese gathering area.

Later, due to the needs of development, the main hall entrance in New York has been moved to another place, but it is still retained as a branch hall.

The affairs of Hongmen in the New York area were mainly handled by Cheng Zongquan. However, Tong Sihai usually lives mainly in Chinatown, which is relatively close to this hall, and he usually goes to the hall when he has nothing to do, so he will help take care of it in case of emergency.

This time Sato Takeshita's challenge, the one he was looking for was Tong Sihai, so Tangguchi's brother notified him as soon as possible.

When a few people came to the entrance of Hongmen Hall, it was exactly 6:45.

As soon as the car stopped, several Hongmen disciples stepped forward to help open the car door.

The Hongmen disciples here have great respect for Tong Sihai. Because, although Tong Sihai is a senior of Hongmen, he never puts on a show, and often comes over to instruct everyone to practice martial arts. When a disciple encounters difficulties, as long as he finds Tong Sihai, he will try his best to help.

The person in charge of this branch entrance was a young man in his thirties, and when he saw Tong Sihai coming, he ran out of the courtyard.

"Old man, the Japanese haven't come yet, and we've all set it up inside. As he gave a briefing, he let a few people into the courtyard.

There was originally a martial arts training ground in the courtyard, and now some of the martial arts training equipment that was originally arranged have been cleaned up and cleaned. On the east and west sides of the martial arts arena, a long table and a bench were placed respectively for the personnel of both sides to sit and rest.

This is also the rule of Hongmen, those who come are guests. Whether it is friend or foe, as long as it is a post, they will be treated with courtesy. Even if you meet later, you won't lose the etiquette. Of course, if it is rash to come to the door and provoke, then there is no such etiquette.

Several people walked through the courtyard and into the living room. After Tong Sihai and the others sat down, he introduced the young man in his thirties to them. It turned out that he was Liu Yuanshan, the person in charge of this branch.

Once again, the Japanese statement of punctuality has been verified. At seven o'clock, Sato Takeshita and the girl who had delivered the token arrived on time.

Liu Yuanshan greeted him at the door of the courtyard, and then led the two to the living room.

Sato Takeshita and the girls wore traditional Japanese kimonos, which are no longer common in Japan, and even rarer in international cities like New York. When the two of them walk on the streets of New York, the return rate will be very high. However, it is obvious that the two don't care about these, this is more of a self-confidence in their own national culture.

Sato Takeshita made a martial artist's etiquette to Tong Sihai and Tang Jifeng, and said, "Tong Sang, Tang Sang, meet again!"

Li Jingwei noticed that this Sato Takeshita was in his fifties, his hair was still as black as ink, and between the rotation of his pupils, a stream of essence appeared from time to time. Between gestures, it can vaguely drive the surrounding qi. It can be seen that this person has become a trend in the martial arts.

Out of courtesy, Tong Sihai and others also got up and returned the salute.

"Mr. Sato, after fifteen years, your style is better than before. Tong Sihai said to Sato Takeshita.

Tong Sihai's words also expressed his opinion on Sato Takeshita's strength. He can see that in the past fifteen years, Sato's strength has improved significantly. Moreover, what he can be sure of is that even if he joins forces with Tang Jifeng, the loss of the two will be greater, and it is impossible to win against the other party.

Tong Sihai also noticed that the current Sato Takeshita seems to have lost the anger of the past, and the whole person seems to be more neutral and peaceful, and his speech and demeanor are not in a hurry, which shows everyone's demeanor.

Then the crowd sat down. Liu Yuanshan himself opened a tea restaurant in Chinatown, and he also had a lot of research on the tea ceremony, so he personally brewed tea and distributed tea for everyone, and also presented the Chinese tea ceremony culture.

This is the first time Li Jingwei has watched a tea ceremony performance, and he also feels very pleasing to the eye. In Japan, the tea ceremony is also very popular. So, to a large extent, the tea ceremony is a common culture for both parties.

The purpose of Liu Yuanshan's move, on the one hand, wants to show that the Chinese nation is a state of etiquette and pays attention to etiquette and exchanges. This time, Sato Takeshita is to post first, and then go to the door, instead of directly coming to the door to challenge, which reflects the etiquette that a warrior should have. On the other hand, he also wanted to tell the other party that this was a tea meeting, hoping that the two sides would be able to meet friends with martial arts and reflect the martial arts demeanor in the process of learning later.

Tang Jifeng also noticed the change in Sato Takeshita this time, unlike the arrogance and domineering of the last time, the whole person seemed restrained and modest. He knew that this showed that Sato Takeshita's state of mind had reached a whole new level. Obviously, with the improvement of the other party's cultivation realm, his state of mind has also changed.

As soon as he entered the living room, Sato Takeshita noticed Li Jingwei. Although it didn't show it on his face, he was quite frightened inside. Because he found that he couldn't accurately judge the other party's realm. In other words, his realm is at least not weaker than his own.

"Tong Sang, may I ask who this little friend is?" Sato couldn't hold back the doubt in his heart, and asked Tong Sihai directly.

"Oh, this little friend was brought by Brother Tang. Tong Sihai replied. He didn't know if it was appropriate to reveal Li Jingwei's identity as a Xuanyuan Dragon League, so he threw the question to Tang Jifeng.

Because the people of the Xuanyuan Dragon League, in addition to having the identity of the Xuanyuan Dragon League, are usually engaged in various different professions in real life, revealing their identities may affect a person's work and life.

When Tang Jifeng heard this, he understood what Tong Sihai meant. He immediately introduced: "This is Li Jingwei of my Xuanyuan Dragon League. ”

The reason why he directly indicated Li Jingwei's identity was because he had already seen that this Sato Takeshita had become a real martial artist, not the martial artist of fifteen years ago.

Martial artists have their own dignity as warriors, and they also have their own principles of conduct, and they will definitely not use Li Jingwei's identity to do things that are not in line with martial arts.

Of course, Tong Sihai is not a member of the Xuanyuan Dragon League, and it is not good for him to directly reveal Li Jingwei's identity.

"Mr. Sato, hello!" Li Jingwei arched his hand towards Sato Takeshita, with a calm demeanor, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Hehe! Sure enough, the hero is a teenager. Sato Takeshita laughed. In fact, what he wanted to express was that it was indeed rare for Li Jingwei to have such cultivation at a young age.

After introducing Li Jingwei, Tang Jifeng pointed at Tang Qiushui and said, "This is my granddaughter Tang Qiushui." ”

Tang Qiushui also paid tribute to Sato Take's chin head.

After Tong Sihai's introduction was finished, Sato Takeshita pointed to the girl sitting next to him and said to everyone: "This is my disciple Matsushita Zhaohui, everyone can call her Huizi." There was a faux pas before, and I also looked at Tong Sang Haihan. ”

When he said this, he was obviously referring to the destruction of the chair when Matsushita Zhaohui posted to the door before.

Matsushita Zhaohui bowed down and bowed to Tong Sihai and a few people. Tong Sihai nodded and motioned for her to sit down. In this way, the destruction of the chair can be regarded as uncovered.

Then, Sato Takeshita gestured to Keiko, who took out a bottle of sake and four cups from the women's leather bag he was carrying, placed them on the table, and filled the glasses with sake.

After Huizi poured the wine, he did not serve the wine to a few people, but sat down.

Then, Sato Takeshita, who was sitting next to him, waved his right hand, and saw that three of the cups were suspended, slowly flying towards Tang Qifeng, Tong Sihai and Li Jingwei.

The hand he showed was in the eyes of the Hongmen disciples, and he suddenly felt a little miraculous. Thinking that he had come to challenge again today, many Hongmen disciples couldn't help but feel a little worried at this time. In their opinion, the two old men, Tang Jifeng and Tong Sihai, are already old after all, and they may suffer a loss against this Japanese. And Li Jingwei seems too young, even if he has been cultivating since he was a child, he may not be Sato Takeshita's opponent.

Although Liu Yuanshan had seen Old Man Tong's kung fu, he was also a little uneasy at this time. He subconsciously looked at his watch and then looked out the door. Cheng Zongquan, the head of Hongmen in the New York area, had not yet arrived at this time.

When discussing with Tong Sihai before, Cheng Zongquan heard Tong Sihai say that there was a master of Bajiquan living in Rhode Island, and he had some connections with Hongmen. Cheng Zongquan's father-in-law, Cao Tian, was the Great Elder of Hongmen and happened to know this person. Just in case, Cheng Zongquan invited this person to come to help through his father-in-law Cao Tianzheng, and he personally rushed to Rhode Island early in the morning to pick up this senior master.

Sato Takeshita's hand is indeed quite clever. If the wine glass flew directly and quickly, Tang Qiushui could do it now.

However, Sato Takeshita is to let the wine glass fly slowly, which requires a very precise control of the strength of the qi, including the size of the force, the direction of the control, etc., are very difficult. In particular, the three glasses are facing three different directions, and it is even more powerful to separate the three forces.

Tong Sihai and Tang Jifeng glanced at each other, and at the same time they both saw each other's thoughts. Sato Takeshita's control of internal force, both of them sighed to themselves.

Li Jingwei understood that Sato Takeshita's move was probably for the purpose of temptation and deterrence at the same time, on the one hand, it could deter the Hongmen disciples who lived there, and on the other hand, it could take the opportunity to test the strength of the two old men and himself.

However, he didn't care about it. Since ancient times, psychological warfare has been a tactical means. But if you really want to surrender without a fight, then you have to show your real strength.

When the wine glasses were about to reach the three of them, he quietly ran the Tai Chi exercises, and the three wine glasses stopped steadily on the table in front of the three of them.

In this process, Li Jingwei's Tai Chi True Qi directly dissolved it when he faced the strength of Sato Takeshita's qi. This process is easy to say, but in fact it requires a very skillful and difficult use of Tai Chi True Qi.

Because when you come into contact with the opponent's strength, if you directly hit the opponent, not only will the wine spill, but I am afraid that the wine glass will also break. If you keep backing down, you won't be able to stop the cup from moving forward. While skillfully dissolving the opponent's strength, you must stabilize the wine glass with your Tai Chi True Qi and make it slowly fall on the table.

When the cup was settled, Li Jingwei said to Tang Jifeng and Tong Sihai: "Grandpa Tang and Senior Tong, please do it first." ”

The two old men looked at each other and smiled, and their hearts were settled.

After the two old men picked up the wine glasses, Li Jingwei also picked up the wine glasses. The three of them raised their glasses to Takeshita Sato across the table, and then drank it all.

In this opening game, the two sides are evenly matched.
