Chapter 68: Year of the Dragon
Just when Chen Jiaju felt guilty for not being able to help.
Ding Ding Ding.
Lei Rongbiao's neighbor Danny "drove" a wheelchair to open the door and walk into the supermarket.
"Hi, Brother Jiaju." Danny greeted.
"Hi, Danny." Chen Jiaju responded.
Seeing Danny, Liangkun's eyes lit up, he walked up to Danny, bent down, supported his knees with both hands, and asked, "Hello, is your name Danny?" I'm a friend of the new owner of this shop, my name is Liangkun. β
Danny stretched out his hand to shake hands with Liangkun and said, "Hello, Liangkun, I'm Danny, and Uncle Biao and I are neighbors." β
Liangkun asked, "Danny, you are the head snake of the ground, do you know who should cover this supermarket?" β
βsoοΌβ Danny nodded.
Liang Kun said, "If you can introduce me to this boss, I can give you a hundred dollars." β
Danny said, "It's a word. β
After high-fives Danny and Liangkun swore an oath, he said, "Follow me." β
β¦β¦
Liang Kun met Joey Tai in a private room at a Chinese restaurant.
After Liangkun gave Danny a hundred-dollar bill and sent him away, Joey Tai also withdrew his black bodyguard.
Liang Kun talks to the suave godfather of Chinatown.
"My name is Liang Kun, I'm from Hong Kong, and I'm a friend of the new owner of the supermarket in the street. β
"That's the way it is in Chinatown, when the owners make money or find a new way out, they can't wait to move out of here and gradually get out of it," says Joey Tai. It's not the same place it used to be, now it's just a transit point or a garbage dump for them. So, you came to me, is there anything I can do? β
"Yesterday, three Chinese motorcyclists came to my friend's shop to steal and we beat them away. For the sake of safety, my friend wanted to make friends with Joey Tai and get shelter from Joey Tai. β
Joey Tai said: "Those little bunnies are like the motorcycle party, more than the Chinese. Some have likened them to 'bananas', yellow on the outside and white on the inside. And I wasn't born in the United States, I'm from Hong Kong, and I hate them more than you do, because you're only seeing them for the first time, and I have to see them every day. If your friend is willing to hire one of my friends for $500 a month, he'll help your friend keep out the troublesome 'bananas.' Mind you, my friend isn't going to be there twenty-four hours a day, not seven days a week. And, apart from that, my friend won't do anything, including moving things, mopping the floorβunless he wants to. β
Liangkun thought for a while and said, "Deal!" β
"If you were just looking for protection, you wouldn't be here, you'd be sitting in the supermarket's manager's office waiting for my people to come to the door," Joey Tai said. Tell me, what else do you have? β
"There are two people who entered Chinatown in the past two days: Hu Nawei, a defector martial arts athlete who killed a local policeman; The other is Li Lianjie, who is also a martial arts athlete, but was wrongfully accused of being a murderer by the police. I would like to ask Mr. Joey Tai to help me find them. β
Joey Tai said, "Do you have more information about these two people? β
Liang Kun said: "Hu Nawei is from Changle, and there should be many fellow villagers here, even close relatives and friends; And Li Lianjie is a native of Beijing, and he has no one to rely on here. β
Joey Tai frowned and said, "Changle Gang? This is not easy to do, although everyone is Chinese, but the relationship is not very harmonious. β
"Li Lianjie is my friend, he is now wanted by the police, and I am worried about his safety. And Hu Nawei, the bastard, is the initiator of Li Lianjie's wrongdoing, as long as you find his address, I can dispose of him myself. β
Joey Tai's brows furrowed, and he smiled, "You handle it yourself?" Are you also a member of the rivers and lakes? Have you ever killed someone, do you know how to kill someone? β
Liang Kun said: "I am the red stick and hall master of Hong Kong Hongxing. My subordinates can come to San Francisco at any time. β
Joey Tai's interest came, and he said: "Since you have someone, can you let your people help me do something by the way, everyone is an exchange, and everyone takes what they need." At the same time, I will also waive the protection fee of your friend's supermarket. β
Liang Kun said: "If Mr. Joey Tai just needs a fresh face to help you use force, there is no problem. β
"Last year, my father-in-law, the head of the gang, was assassinated. In terms of ability and contribution, I should be the leader. But those old asses had to get in the way. I want them to know that the seat of the faucet is not so easy to sit in! β
Liangkun said: "I want to find my friend Li Lianjie first. β
Joey Tai said: "No problem. I'll scatter my people out right away. You leave your contact information, find someone, and I'll let you know. β
β¦β¦
When Liangkun was entrusting Joey Tai to help find Li Lianjie and Hu Nawei.
Hu Nawei has already connected with his cousin Ah Ping, who has long been smuggled to the United States.
Ah Ping took Hu Nawei to his boss Mark's restaurant.
Mark was sunbathing on the restaurant's rooftop.
Ah Ping walked up to Mark and said, "Boss, this is my old cousin Ah Wei." I was on the martial arts team in my hometown, and now I'm here. β
Mark looked Hu Nawei up and down and said, "You should follow Ah Ping first." β
With that, Mark waved his hand and told Ah Ping and Hu Nawei to get out of the way.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion from downstairs.
Immediately afterward, a group of knife men rushed up the stairs to the rooftop.
Ah Ping looked at it and scolded: ", it's someone from An Liangtang." Protect the Boss! β
Ah Ping's shouting voice was not small, but in the face of the machete, there was not much place where this thick throat could help him.
Hu Nawei was not afraid of danger, turned a table over, grabbed a table leg and broke it off, and used it as a club, and there were four or five long nails exposed at the head of the club, which was considered a mace.
Although the machete looks scary, it is not as good as an axe when it comes to the legs of a hardwood table.
Taking advantage of the fact that the machete was stuck on the leg of the table and could not be pulled out, Hu Nawei kicked down several An Liangtang knife hands with his severed feet.
Hu Nawei's style of play has actually been out of the scope of traditional martial arts, but the "unreasonable" style of the Qinglong knife during the anti-Japanese period.
As one of the world's three most famous swords, Japanese swords are world-famous.
As early as the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese sword in the hands of the Japanese was the bitter hand of the Chinese army.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, in general, the quality of the combat knives used by our army was mostly inferior to that of the Japanese army, except for a small number of fine products such as "Hezhou knives".
The knife is not as good as a person, so we must find a way from the knife technique. As a result, our army developed some white-knuckle combat tactics against the Japanese army, such as using knives as sticks.
In the "Diary of a Chinese Front Soldier" by the famous Japanese war correspondent Yukio Komata, such a battle was recorded:
Okabe's unit attacked a mountain ridge and encountered a counterattack by the Chinese army's death squad on the mountain.
Seeing that the Chinese army was trying to engage in a white-knuckle battle, the Japanese army stopped the shelling and met them with swords in order to show their bravery.
Okabe encounters a Chinese officer with a "Blue Dragon Knife" in hand-to-hand combat. Before he could make a move, the other party had already slashed at him. In desperation, he blocked it with a knife. It turned out that the Chinese officer's knife, although it appeared to be shoddy, was very heavy. The two knives intersected, and his war knife was suddenly "smashed" into two pieces. Running out of a knife, Okabe had no choice but to flee the battlefield.
In an interview, Okabe said angrily that the Chinese swordman's style of play was "unreasonable" at all.
- The Japanese word for "unreasonable" means to be unreasonable.
Hu Nawei's style of play is also "unreasonable":
The opponent slashed over, Hu Nawei waved the table leg diagonally to meet it, and slashed diagonally to the table leg, as if he was using a knife to peel the table leg, there is no possibility of cutting off the table leg, and it can jam the opponent's knife - this is called "lock take" in traditional martial arts.
There are two typical types of "lock-holding weapons" in traditional martial arts, one is the hook and the other is the fork.
The most typical hook is the handguard hook, which can be seen in many movies and TV series, but under the guidance of the layman's martial arts, it is often used as a hoe, mainly "peck".
The fork is long and short, and the long-handled fork has a variant of boring, which has the role of blocking, and the riot fork is also one of them; The official name of the two steel forks used by Raphael in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is the iron ruler, and the weapon of the "white hunter" Smoker in "One Piece" is called "Ten Hands", which is a unilateral iron ruler, and modern batons can actually be classified as iron rulers.
An Liangtang's knife hand was holding a dog-legged knife or an axe, and Hu Nawei didn't dare to do it, but they were holding a beef knife with a straight back and a thin blade.
Facing the beef knife, Hu Nawei used the table leg to face it, even if he couldn't get stuck once, he could swing the opponent's beef knife away, and he could do it again, there was always a time when he could "lock" it.
Taking advantage of the "lock" to hold the opponent's weapon, it is time to test the fists and feet of both sides, and this is the range that Hu Nawei is good at.
Isn't the so-called IQ just pulling the other party to a channel that you are familiar with, and then using your rich experience to beat the other party?
β¦β¦
I don't know if An Liangtang was improvised, and he didn't have time to gather a good knife hand, so he could only issue a machete as a knife hand.
Anyway, these An Liangtang swordsmen who only know how to carry knives and chirp provide an excellent platform for Hu Nawei to show his strength.
Mark and the others, who were suddenly attacked, insisted on waiting for reinforcements under Hu Nawei's efforts to turn the tide, and were not hacked to death by An Liangtang, who was more than twice the number of people.
However, even if he was embarrassed by Hu Nawei's counterattack, An Liangtang's knife hand still managed to retreat with all his body, and all of them slipped away without leaving one.
Mark, who had palpitations, patted Hu Nawei on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, follow me and work hard, our Changle Gang will not bury talents." β
