Chapter 585: Old Man Grows Stronger
Since the "Jiangnan Case" in the 80s, Mr. Bai has been living in seclusion in a manor on the outskirts of San Francisco, and only a very small number of people in Hongmen know about Mr. Bai's existence in the world.
However, although this manor is also on the outskirts of the city, it is just the opposite direction of the airport, and the car has to cross the entire city of San Francisco to reach the manor, which makes Qin Feng see the style of the city.
San Francisco is a port city on the Pacific coast of California, the second largest city in California after Los Angeles, the largest financial center in the western United States and an important high-tech R&D and manufacturing base.
At the same time, San Francisco is also home to the largest concentration of Chinese in the Americas, and the famous high-tech Jishu Industrial Park "Silicon Valley" on Shijie is located here, attracting countless high-tech talents and tourists from all over Shijie every day.
When Qin Feng and the others got off the plane, it was night, and the whole San Francisco was brightly lit, especially when passing the famous Golden Gate Bridge, the scenery was quite shocking-
"Let's stop over there in Chinatown......"
When the car passed by an avenue, Bai Zhentian pointed to a place and said, "Brother, it's late tonight, let's get out of the car and take a look and go, wait for the old brother tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will accompany you to have a good time......
"Well, when you come to San Francisco, you must see Chinatown." Qin Feng nodded, he had already heard of this place where overseas Chinese gathered.
When the car stopped, Bai Zhentian took the lead in opening the car door and walked down, pointed to the entrance of Chinatown, and said with emotion: "These places are all accumulated by our Chinese with blood and sweat!" ”
Although Bai Zhentian spends most of his time in San Francisco, he comes to Chinatown for tea almost every day. But every time I see this building, there is always an inexplicable feeling in it.
"Yes, those Chinese who built railways back then, I don't know how many died, and they occupied a place here." Qin Feng sighed, he had heard Master say those things. In the early years, China was weak, and I don't know how much bullying it suffered.
San Francisco's Chinatown has existed in the United States for more than 100 years.
Qin Feng saw that at the entrance, there were a pair of stone lions and a dark green Chinese-style archway, on which Mr. Sun Yat-sen's "The world is for the public" four big characters, which is a symbol of Chinatown and a symbol of Chinese civilization.
Glancing back at the Hongmen disciples who were clustered around him, Bai Zhentian said, "Brother." It's Grant Street, so I'm not going to take you in today......"
"Haode, Big Brother Bai, you should visit the old man first."
Qin Feng nodded, although it was already night at this time, he could still see that the streets inside were full of people, and almost every shop door was surrounded by water.
"Let's go......" Bai Zhentian got back into the car. Four or five cars drove directly to the manor on the outskirts of the city.
After getting into the car, Bai Zhentian sighed: "My father likes to come to Chinatown to drink tea the most. But he can only come once a week......"
"Big Brother Bai, if the old man is homesick, he can go back to China for a while."
Qin Feng opened his mouth and said: "It's been so many years, and the veterans who went to Taiwan Island back then have all been asked to go back to visit their relatives, and it should be no problem for the old man to go back to the country......
"yes. Uncle Bai, if the old man goes back, he will live in Cangzhou directly......" Before Qin Feng's words fell, Liu Zimo said: "Our old Liu family can still have the final say there." ”
"He wants to go back, but I'm a little worried." Bai Zhentian said: "Father went out early. He hadn't seen the change in China back then, and my brother and I have palpitations......"
Because Mr. Bai had served in the Kuomintang government back then, he went to the United States before liberation for fear of settling accounts after the autumn, and he was not affected by those shocks after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
But Bai Zhentian is different, he has suffered a lot of criticism in China, otherwise he would not have smuggled out of the mainland with a group of old brothers and ran abroad to die abroad, now that he thinks about it, he still has some nostalgia in his heart.
"Big Brother Bai, now that the country is relatively relaxed, if the old man has a heart, let's arrange for him to go back for a walk!"
Although he had not experienced that era, Qin Feng knew a lot about that period of time, because with Master Zaiyu's ability, he was hiding in prison at that time and was reluctant to come out, which shows how chaotic it was at that time.
"Okay, if I have the chance, I want to go back and walk too!" Bai Zhentian nodded, he has been out for decades, and deep down he still misses the mountains and rivers of his hometown.
In order to let Qin Feng see the night view of San Francisco, the car was not very fast, and it took more than an hour to drive out of the city, and after driving for more than 20 minutes, he came to the vicinity of Highway 1 from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
"It's a great view, and it's good for my father's body......"
After several cars drove into a gate, Bai Zhentian turned his head and explained to Qin Feng that the scenery of Highway 1 in San Francisco was very beautiful, and the old man's manor was on the side of the road.
"Huh? Still have guests today? ”
Seeing seven or eight cars parked in the open space inside the door, Bai Zhentian's brows couldn't help frowning, his father lived in seclusion here, and even on weekdays, he had very little contact with the people in Hongmen.
"Uncle Bin, what's going on? Who is here? ”
After getting out of the car, Bai Zhentian walked to the gatehouse at the gate of the manor, the old man who was guarding the door was seventy or eighty years old, even if Bai Zhentian saw it, he would also perform the junior ceremony.
"Young master, it was the master of the door who brought people here, more than 20 people came, and the master let them in."
Uncle Bin was playing with a pair of iron balls in his hand, each of which was the size of a baby's fist, and he really couldn't turn this thing without a certain amount of wrist strength.
As the saying goes, the poor are rich in martial arts, in the early years the family had no money, and they didn't want to learn martial arts at all, just like the Liu family back then, the Bai family was also the big gate of Hebei Province, and when they went abroad before liberation, many people followed.
is like Uncle Bin in front of him, he looks like he is dying old now, but when he was young, he was also the number one person, and he did a lot of great things with Old Man Bai.
It stands to reason that Uncle Bin can also be regarded as the veteran of the overseas Hongmen, and he can find a place to enjoy his old age in peace, but Uncle Bin has followed Old Man Bai since he was a child, and would rather be a porter here.
"The master of the door is here? Can he still go out with that body? What nonsense! ”
Bai Zhentian's brows furrowed more and more, turned around and beckoned to Chen Junhua, and said, "Things are a little wrong, let the people from Tangkou come over and fence this garden for me......"
Bai Zhentian has been wandering the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he has seen too many things, and when he went home, a group of people came to his father's house with the master of the door, which always seemed to reveal a killing intent.
"Yes, Master Bai!" Chen Junhua agreed, walked to the side, took out his mobile phone and made a call.
"Young master, it's okay, Lao Cao is also here, with him, those little cubs can't turn the sky." Uncle Bin turned the iron ball in his hand with an indifferent expression.
"Oh? Uncle Cao is here too? ”
Bai Zhentian was stunned when he heard this, his face relaxed a little, nodded and said, "With Uncle Cao here, you really don't have to worry, Uncle Bin, let me introduce you to someone to see if you still have an impression?" ”
"Introduce me to someone?"
Uncle Bin rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You bullied Uncle Dazzled, didn't you?" The people who came with you are all young people, how can there be anyone my uncle knows? ”
Although Uncle Bin has always maintained a master-servant relationship with the Bai family, no one in the Bai family dares to regard him as a servant, and Bai Zhentian knows that Uncle Bin's heart is very high, and he doesn't look down on ordinary people at all.
"Hehe, Uncle Bin, do you still remember the life-seeking Yama on the rivers and lakes back then?"
Bai Zhentian smiled, pulled Qin Feng over, and said, "This little brother is the descendant disciple of Yama Luo, do you think you should be introduced to you?" ”
"Yama?!"
Hearing this nickname, Uncle Bin's body couldn't help but tremble, and his cloudy old eyes shot out a trace of light, staring at Qin Feng tightly, and said, "You...... You are a disciple of the old Xia senior, he ...... Is he okay? ”
Uncle Bin is seventy-eight years old this year, and he was not yet twenty years old when he followed Old Man Bai as an attendant in the Kuomintang government, and it is for this reason that he has seen Zaiyu.
At that time, the name of Yama was in full swing in the rivers and lakes, even if the old man Bai was not enough to see the seniors in Zaiyu, let alone Bai Bin in front of him.
Moreover, Yama has a life-saving grace to Old Man Bai, and this matter has often been mentioned for so many years, so Uncle Bin should also call Zai Yu an old man.
Qin Feng knew that the master used the surname Xia in the rivers and lakes in his early years, and immediately said: "Uncle Bin, the master passed away a few years ago......
He ...... His old man died? ”
Uncle Bin's voice trembled a little, "Alas, what kind of demeanor did you think of the old seniors back then?" The little devils and traitors who killed were terrified, but I didn't expect that they couldn't escape the time after all......"
"By the way, hurry up and tell me, how did Senior Xia come over all these years?"
Uncle Bin grabbed Qin Feng, a person of his age has old friends who die almost every year, so he also likes to remember the past, and now he is a little excited when he sees the son of the deceased.
"Uncle Bin, let's talk about these later, let's go first!"
Seeing that Uncle Bin was about to pull Qin Feng to reminisce about the past, Bai Zhentian hurriedly said: "My father also wants to hear about Xia Lao, we can't let him talk twice, right?" ”
"Yes, go in and say, go in and talk about it."
Uncle Bin nodded again and again when he heard this, straightened his waist, and said: "Get rid of those bastard boys, damn it, if Lao Tzu had known that there were distinguished guests today, none of them would have wanted to come in......"
seems to think of the past events of the year, Uncle Bin was arrogant, and the style directly came to a 180-degree turn, and the rough style did not look like a drooping old man at all, but like a decisive gangster. (To be continued......)
