Chapter 7: The Team
Chapter 7: The Team
It was not a short time to come out, Ye Tan thought of his parents and family, and he had to give up the impulse in his heart because he was anxious because he didn't see him.
Shuttling back to San Francisco from the light tunnel, Ye Tan came out of the sea cave. Swap into a white shirt and navy blue trousers, a pickle green jacket and a pair of black water shoes. The dark clouds have lifted, the torrential rain has stopped, and the devastated mountain scenery of Cape Lobos Mountain remains.
The whole Lobos Point Mountain is full of dense people. What they were looking for, Ye Tan couldn't be clearer, it was nothing more than scattered rifles and iron cannons.
However, he is the biggest beneficiary of this dragon absorption. 13 warships full of armaments, enough to equip a reinforced army.
As a person who has traveled through the past generations, Ye Tan doesn't think very well of these weapons.
If it weren't for the low-key act, Ye Tan really didn't want to use such a backward weapon.
There were so many strangers coming to Lobos Point Mountain at once, which made Ye Tan very worried about the safety of his parents and family.
Ye Tan, who suddenly woke up, felt tight, ran away, and ran wildly.
Running back home in one go, there was a devastated scene everywhere. The wooden houses had long been blown apart by the hurricane, and the wooden planks and pillars were scattered all over the ground.
Parents and sister, as well as Uncle Yu's family, are busy cleaning up the mess.
Thinking of the huge changes that had taken place in his body, Ye Tan couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle when he made up the scene of their questioning.
"You ?。。。"
Seeing Ye Tan coming back, he suddenly changed, Yu Hongluan pointed at Ye Tan, dumbfounded, covering his mouth, speechless in surprise.
Ye Tan, in particular, suddenly became tall and heroic, which made the two sisters a little overwhelmed with shyness.
If they hadn't known Ye Tan for so long, the Yu Hongluan sisters would definitely think that they were not the same person.
Even Ye's father, Ye Shengde, and Uncle Yu's husband and wife, when they saw Ye Tan, who had changed his appearance, they didn't dare to recognize each other for a while.
Ye Tan asked knowingly: "Dad, Uncle Yu, Hongluan, Qingluan, what's wrong with you?" (For the sake of smooth reading, Cantonese was changed to Chinese.) )
After a long time, Yu Hongluan blushed and said, "Ye Tan, why did you grow so tall." ”
Ye Tan pretended to look at himself, as if he didn't notice any difference, and said stubbornly: "I heard the doctor in the United States say that some people seem to have a fever when their bodies are developing, and I have been sick for so long, I don't know if that's the case?" ”
In fact, the experience that Ye Tan gained from later generations was not new. There are a large number of children, when the bones grow, will also have a fever, serious illness.
Moreover, Ye Shengde also understands this truth. Therefore, as soon as Ye Tan said this, Ye Shengde suddenly realized.
"It's finally over."
Seeing that everyone listened to his explanation, Ye Tan felt relieved.
At this moment, Ye Tan's familiar voice came from far outside the door, "Atan, listen to your sister, you have recovered." ”
This is the brother Ye Tan met on the ship, his name is Jinghong. Jing Hung is a native of Foshan, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and learned the famous Wing Chun boxing in later generations.
If Ye Tan was not wrong, Jing Hong must be with the three brothers Long Zheng, Long Zheng, and Wu Muzhou.
While speaking, Jing Hong nodded to Father Ye and the others, each proudly holding a Kentucky long rifle, and stepped into the door with a big grin.
Seeing the tall and majestic Ye Tan at a glance, he wiped his eyes in disbelief, and froze there in a daze. Even the three people who followed behind, Long Zheng, Long Zheng and Wu Muzhou, were as if they had been immobilized.
After a short period of astonishment, Jing Hong smashed a fist on Ye Tan's chest, and when he saw that Ye Tan was not moving at all, he said in surprise: "Ah Tan, how did you kid change?" ”
Long Zheng, Long Zheng and Wu Muzhou also nodded vigorously.
Ye Tan smiled and said, "Ah Hong, haven't you heard that the body grows too fast, which will cause discomfort and cause fever," Ye Tan raised his right hand and made a gesture to grow taller, "Look at it, this is the consequence of my serious illness." ”
Immediately afterwards, Jing Hong licked his face and said exaggeratedly: "Brother Tan, is this okay?" Then I'd rather be sick for a year. My requirements are not high, a height of 1.8 meters is enough, and the weight, 150 pounds is enough. ”
Ye Tan rolled his eyes and said, "Ah Hong, why don't I knock you on the head and try it?" ”
After speaking, Ye Tan pretended to look around for wooden sticks.
Seeing that Ye Tan seemed to be coming for real, Jing Hong's neck suddenly shrank, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Brother Tan, I'm joking, you don't have to take it seriously," he handed the Kentucky long rifle in front of Ye Tan, "Brother Tan, what do you think of my rifle?" ”
"Not bad! It's a Kentucky long rifle. It is a long rifle designed based on the Yaeger rifle. Ye Tan took the gun, checked the barrel, tried to pull the trigger, checked the flexibility of the spring, held the gun to test the aim, and looked left and right. After a pause, he said: "All the functions of the rifle are normal, as long as there are bullets, it can be used." Wait a minute, I seem to have picked up a few boxes of bullets and I'll give them to you. ”
Ye Tan walked into the cave where he was hiding, and when he came out of it, he already had 10 boxes of bullets and thunder mercury fire caps in his hands.
"Ah Hong, Ah Zheng, Ah Zheng, Ah Zhou, bullets don't have eyes, and if you have a gun, you have to be careful in the future."
Ye Tan admonished and handed the bullet to Jing Hong.
"Thank you, Brother Tan!"
Jing Hong took the lead and bowed to Ye Tan and said sincerely.
"Come, I'll teach you how to load and shoot first."
Looking at Jing Hong's several clumsy movements, Ye Tan couldn't see it. He snatched the rifle from Jing Hong's hand, first loaded the firing device with mercury, then picked up the paper cartridge, bit through the paper packet, poured the ammunition into the barrel, and stuffed the ammunition into the firing chamber with an iron core. Finally, Ye Tan aimed at a small tree 30 meters away and broke the branch with one shot.
A series of actions, such as walking with a cloud of water. Leave everyone stunned.
"Uncle Ye, I heard that Ah Tan was beaten by the people of Hongzitang, and I specially brought a group of brothers back to help," as he was speaking, Liu Juliu's voice came from afar, "Hey, how did this become like this?" ”
Liu Juliu, when he was sold and sent to the United States by ship, was on the same boat as Ye Tan's family. When the ship was about to arrive in Hawaii, 21 or 2-year-old Liu Juliu was almost starved to death because he didn't get any food, and he survived by relying on Ye's father to give him a pumpkin.
Therefore, Liu Juliu remembered the kindness of Ye's father and came to visit him from time to time.
Moreover, Liu Juliu is very capable, and among the Chinese workers, he gathered a few like-minded young people for self-protection.
This time, I heard that someone had beaten Ye Tan, so I hurriedly brought someone over to help. Of course, they also came with rifles and iron cannons on the hill of Cape Lobos.
"Ah Tan, you brothers are lucky to have picked up guns. It's a pity that we were late. ”
Liu Juliu said with both envy and regret.
The Great Depression in the United States has caused a lot of robberies and killings in San Francisco recently. Liu Juliu has always wanted to have a gun to protect himself. It's a pity that I missed an opportunity.
Ye Tan said lightly: "Sixth brother, the gun is not a problem, if you want it, I can give it to you." ”
"Brother Tan, brother, if you give me a gun, I Liu Juliu will be mixed with you in the future."
Liu Juliu, who loves guns like crazy, heard that there was such a good thing, and couldn't wait to pull Ye Tan's arm, shook it, and said nervously.
Ye Tan looked at the people all over the mountains, carrying guns and cannons, carrying sea fish on his shoulders, leaving one after another, and then said, "That's okay!" Now there are so many people, it's not the time, you should come over at night. ”
"Brother Tan, then I won't leave, just wait for you to give me a gun at night," Liu Juliu's face was flushed with an unhealthy flush, which showed his joy. Turning his head, Liu Juliu beckoned the brothers behind him and said, "Brother Tan, these are my brothers who have died, I will introduce you to you." These are Dong Liwu in southwest Fujian, Zhang Liangji in Xinhui, Li Danghong and Fang Jingyuan in Xiangshan, and Xue Lun in Jiangmen. ”
Ye Tan nodded and greeted everyone warmly, his attitude was very low, very easy-going, giving people a good initial impression, which was considered a familiar face.
"Ah Tan, I've inquired, the person behind the instigation to hurt you is Yao Baili, and that foreign devil Shi Biwei. All Chinese workers who come to San Francisco have to pay a health fee to Hong Zitang. But others only need 50 US dollars, but we ask for 100 US dollars each, obviously trying to be detrimental to my aunt, A Qingmei, and Uncle Yu's family! ”
Then, Liu Juliu pulled Ye Tan to the side and said in a low voice: "Ah Tan, the people of Hongzitang are eyeing your sister and Hongluan, as well as Qingluan. They are not going to give up and will definitely come to you for trouble. ”
Ye Tan took out the Desert Eagle pistol and shook it in front of Liu Juliu's eyes, then he suppressed his throat and said in a murderous whisper: "Sixth brother, don't wait until night!" This is the most advanced pistol in the United States, as long as the people of Hongzitang dare to come, I will send them to see Hades! ”
Looking at the pistol in Ye Tan's hand, Liu Juliu is a person who knows the goods, looking at the foreign code characters engraved on it, his eyes are full of light, and he can't take his eyes off anymore. If it were someone else, Liu Juliu would be afraid that he would fight hard to get it. Hearing Ye Tan's words, Liu Juliu thought twice and said, "Ah Tan, this is a good gun!" Do you really give it to me? ”
Ye Tan looked at Liu Juliu's eyes, his eyes were clear, and he said, "Sixth brother, I, Ye Tan, speak, and my teeth are golden envoys!" Talk the talk! ”
After speaking, Ye Tan stuffed the Desert Eagle into Liu Juliu's hand.
Liu Juliu held the Desert Eagle, his heart was surging, his fingertips slid over the foreign code words on it, and he said excitedly: "Desert Eagle? Good name! ”
"Brother Tan, in the future, you let the sixth brother go east, and the sixth brother will never go west."
Liu Juliu's mentality changed quickly, and he deserved to have been mixed in the rivers and lakes. He swallowed the foaming star, his throat was dry, and he swore solemnly. After speaking, he quickly hid the gun close to his body.
In fact, Liu Juliu's heart has been shocked by Ye Tan's handwriting. When he held a pistol weighing 4 pounds, he measured that it was a real gun. Coupled with the foreign code words above, it is even more convinced. Directly throw those so-called Colt revolvers more than eight streets away.
Therefore, Liu Juliu didn't think much about it, and sold himself completely.
Next, Ye Tan attached his ears and carefully taught Liu Juliu how to use the Desert Eagle.
After getting familiar with the use of the Desert Eagle, Liu Juliu was bold and begged: "Ah Tan, I still have 5 brothers, or you can take them all, and I will do their work." ”
Ye Tan was worried that they would become a small circle headed by Liu Juliu, and turn their heads to disobey themselves. So he nodded and said solemnly: "Sixth brother, it's not impossible. However, they must listen to me and be loyal to me. Otherwise, you will be punished according to the rules! ”
Seeing that Ye Tan didn't seem to be joking, Liu Juliu also looked solemn, gritted his teeth, and said seriously: "Brother Tan, brothers are like duckweed without roots and bottomless in San Francisco. Now this environment is also full and hungry, and it is not easy. As long as you compare your heart to your heart, your brothers will definitely die for you! ”
Seeing Liu Juliu pat his chest to make a guarantee, Ye Tan breathed a sigh of relief. Because Ye Tan knew that the so-called guarantee was just a weak defense. If you believe it, Ye Tan will be in vain.
got a peerless gun from Ye Tan, and got what he wanted, Liu Juliu's bones were dozens of catties lighter. Even when I walk, my feet are fluttery. He beckoned Dong Liwu and them, and everyone joined hands together, and neatly packed up the wooden planks and pillars and other things scattered on the ground.
