Chapter 19: The Shackles
The phone rang, and Superintendent Xiangjiang picked it up impatiently: "Find out what time it is before you call!" β
"Superintendent... My lord, it's too late... Excuse me! A weak voice came from the other end of the line, and the superintendent barely understood what the man meant.
"Are you...," the superintendent asked.
"I am... Wang Lichao! β
Hearing Wang Lichao's name, the superintendent was agitated and hurriedly sat up, "Big brother? Why doesn't it sound like your voice? β
Wang Lichao was punched in the stomach by Bruce Lee, he didn't know how many ribs were broken, and he was naturally weak to speak, with his identity so unscrupulous in Xiangjiang, no one else thought that the relationship between Wang Lichao and the superintendent of Xiangjiang turned out to be brothers!
"I, I want to ask you to help me catch a murderer!" Wang Lichao said weakly, after being beaten, Wang Lichao didn't pretend anymore, and now it's completely empty...
"Big brother, this is not a difficult matter, you just need to tell me who the arrested person is and where it is!"
"His name is Bruce Lee!" Wang Lichao said hatefully.
β¦β¦
"Xiaolong, you're in trouble!" Li Haiquan is really angry, at this time, it is not Bruce Lee's business alone, he beat Wang Lichao, and there is a good end?
"There is no good way now, I can only let Xiaolong go to the United States as soon as possible, at this time, I can't help his mind, he has to go if he doesn't go, if he doesn't go, ask Master Ye to discount his leg!"
Li Haiquan made up his mind, if Bruce Lee insisted on refusing, even if he discounted his leg, it would be better than losing his life!
"Dad! I'm not afraid, it was Wang Lichao who did it to me first! Bruce Lee was still unconvinced.
When Li Haiquan heard this, he was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped him: "Now no one is talking to you about who is right and who is wrong, you are now messing with the boss of the underworld, do you know the truth of the police and bandit family?" You can't save anyone! Fortunately, Master Ye's apprentice is a police officer, so I learned the news, and they came right away! β
Li Haiquan hurriedly took Bruce Lee out of the house, and as soon as he left, the police arrived, and a group of people were loaded with guns, and Bruce Lee felt a trace of fear.
"How? You okay? Bruce Lee followed Li Haiquan to a place arranged by Uncle Shao, Ip Man was also here, and when he saw Bruce Lee coming, Uncle Shao still asked out loud.
"It's okay for the time being, they've already sent someone to catch the little dragon! Being caught by the police, it is estimated that there is no difference between falling into the hands of Wang Lichao, is there any good way for Master Ye? β
Li Haiquan can only pin his hopes on Ip Man, and with Ip Man's relationship, he is much stronger than Li Haiquan in these things.
"Where is there a good way now, as long as we ensure that Xiaolong does not fall into their hands, it would be good, let's wait for the limelight to pass and let Xiaolong go to the United States!"
Ye Man also has a big head, Xiaolong not only provoked the underworld forces this time, but even the police station will not let him go, where is there any good way!
As soon as Ye Man's words fell, Ning An opened the door and came in: "Master, things have changed, I'm afraid that Senior Brother Xiaolong won't be able to stay in Xiangjiang for a moment!" β
Everyone was puzzled, Ning An threw the backpack behind him on the ground, and five or six pistols suddenly appeared in front of everyone! Cold!
"This isβ" Li Haiquan asked tremblingly.
Ning An took a breath and said: "Now it's not only the police who want to arrest Senior Brother Xiaolong, but all of Wang Lichao's subordinates are looking for Senior Brother Bruce Lee, and everyone has a gun in their hands, they want to put Senior Brother Xiaolong to death!" β
"Are you okay then?" Hearing that things were so dangerous, even Ip Man felt palpitations and asked repeatedly.
"I'm fine, those people are around Senior Brother Xiaolong's house, I heard them say that if Senior Brother Xiaolong doesn't show up, they will tie up his family and threaten Senior Brother Xiaolong, I just made a move! Auntie, they're fine, I put them in a safe place, Wang Lichao and they won't find it! Ning An hesitated, but still told the situation.
"What! Little brother, are my mother and sister okay? Bruce Lee was really anxious when he heard this: "Master, Dad, it's all my fault, I shouldn't mess with them, let you worry about me!" β
"What's the use of saying this, now the situation is extremely urgent, I'll ask someone to buy the nearest ferry ticket, and you will go to the United States immediately!"
Ip Man calmed down, things were even more dangerous than he thought, and the sooner Bruce Lee went to the United States, the safer he would be.
Ip Man made several phone calls in succession, and finally it was related, he could get a ticket, Ip Man relieved himself and arranged Bruce Lee, and then he could only wait.
After everyone left, Ye Man came back to his senses and turned his gaze to Ning An: "You kid, you have broken through to the dark energy!" β
Ip Man has good eyesight, and naturally found the changes in Ning An's body, Ning An has studied martial arts for more than three years, even Ip Man didn't expect him to break through the dark energy, in the past, Ning An's achievements will definitely not be lower than Yang Luchan, Sun Lutang's generation!
"Hey, hey... Master, this is a coincidence, the situation is really critical, and the threat of guns is too great, I didn't think about it so much, I touched the threshold of dark energy, and accidentally broke through! β
Ye Man patted Ning An's head, although there was blame, but more of it was gratifying: "You don't have to be cheap and good, I don't know what you think?" But I really have a question for you. β
Ning An was stunned, "Master can ask if you have any questions!" β
Ye Man clenched his right fist lightly against his left palm, and there was some hesitation, watching Ning An open his mouth and saying, "Why are you so attentive to Xiaolong?" Don't let me fail to see it, you value Xiaolong and others! β
"Master, you're asking my heart!"
Ning An smiled bitterly, do you still want to tell Ye Man that Bruce Lee will definitely become the greatest martial artist of this era in the future? Believe it or not, if you are pulled to slice by a research institution, it will be broken...
After thinking about it, Ning An said: "Master, if I say that this is putting a shackle on Senior Brother Xiaolong, do you believe it or not?" β
"Shackles?" Ye Man was confused by Ning An's words, and he didn't understand what Ning An meant by these words at all.
"You also know Senior Brother Xiaolong's temperament, he is too strong, and it is easy to break just too much! I know you want to keep the legacy of Wing Chun with me, but..."
Ning An is naturally grateful to Ip Man for treating him as a closed heir, but he is not a person in this world after all, if he leaves, then where will Ip Man find a successor?
But there is one, but Ning An knows that his master will not pass on the secret of Wing Chun to Bruce Lee!
"I am sincere to Senior Brother Xiaolong, and he will also be grateful, if something happens to me in the future, he will naturally take my place?
Senior Brother Xiaolong is a martial arts wizard, with this layer of shackles, even if he jumps out again, he will think twice! Definitely can afford the burden of Wing Chun! β
Ye Man slapped the table and was furious: "You bastard, can you use what I think clearly?" I haven't lost my breath yet, it's your turn to worry about me? Wing Chun inheritance, is it up to you to let whoever bears it? β
Ning An didn't speak, but his attitude was extremely resolute!
"Hey! You are still young, you can see that Xiaolong has just passed and is easy to break, but you can't see that he is short-lived, how do you ask me to make him my heir? β
As soon as Ye Man's words came out, Ning An felt that the world was spinning, this master really deserved to be a generation of grandmasters, and even the ability of this person was extraordinary!
Bruce Lee almost reached the peak of his life in his 30s, but he died suddenly and died unexpectedly, which became a big regret.
"Master, don't worry, I will ensure that he will have no worries for the rest of his life!" Ning An said in a deep voice, not for anything else, maybe it was just for a dream in his heart, and he didn't want to see Bruce Lee's life so short!
"I'm just afraid that your shackles won't be able to trap Xiaolong..."
Ye Man has been old and experienced all his life, although he understands some of Ning An's thoughts, but he is not optimistic about Ning An.
"Master, this is the beginning, let's do it and see!" Ning An said meaningfully...
