Chapter 585: Spiegel
After passing on Chen Shuofang's set of basic cultivation techniques, and giving him a few pills to improve his strength and heal his wounds, Zhang Huban sent him away.
After Chen Shuofang left, Uncle Han, the middle-aged man who had disposed of the corpses, also came back again and said to Zhang Huban: "Young Master, all the corpses have been disposed of. In addition, the Japanese Onmyoji, I took it upon myself to cut off his limbs, cut out his tongue, blinded his eyes, and was ready to turn back and let him beg on the street. ”
"Huh.. Uncle Han, you're quite good at getting into trouble. However, it's good to treat others the way they do," Zhang Huhu laughed.
...
Time passed quietly, and in a blink of an eye, Zhang Huban had been in the Lin Mansion in Shanghai for two or three months.
During this time, he basically didn't leave the Lin Mansion much, and he looked like he was clean and leisurely.
Lin Mansion, probably because Zhang Huban's mother, Lin Yueniang, took into account that Zhang Huban was a cultivator and liked to be quiet, so she didn't arrange many people, only a few maids and women who were usually responsible for cleaning and cooking, and Uncle Han, the housekeeper. Usually, if there is anything lacking in the Lin Mansion, someone will send it over.
However, a month ago, the daily necessities in the Lin Mansion had already been delivered by a different person. Several maids and daughters-in-law were also replaced by half by Zhang Huban, and three maids and daughters-in-law were found. And these, under Zhang Huban's order, someone helped arrange them.
In fact, in the past two or three months, Zhang Huban has not been idle. Although he hasn't gone out much, the Lin Mansion is two ends in three days, and people are indispensable to come. These people who came to the Lin Mansion to see Zhang Huban were all brought by Chen Shuofang at first, and slowly a few of Chen Shuofang's cronies and disciples in the Tianwei Martial Arts Pavilion came as guides.
Shanghai has not been very peaceful lately, and gang fights of all sizes seem to have become fierce all of a sudden. At the same time, many gangs have changed heads, and most of them are young people. In comparison, the Tianwei Martial Arts Pavilion quietly changed its name and became the matter of the Longwei Martial Arts Pavilion, and few people paid attention to it.
However, whether it was the officials and businessmen in Shanghai, or the bigwigs who stayed in the gang struggle, they didn't know that an invisible force had quietly relied on the gang organization to be born and grow. And the center of power of this force is the Longwei Martial Arts Pavilion that everyone doesn't care much about.
It wasn't until more than ten years later that it had developed into a behemoth-like force, encompassing the three religions and nine streams of the entire China, and the so-called rivers and lakes had almost become an invisible underground dynasty. Even, in less than a hundred years, its tentacles have spread all over the world, becoming a force that can influence the world pattern, and it has also made a significant contribution to the rise of China. Its name is called Dragon Hall.
In the Dragon Hall, there are four dragon heads, elders from all directions, law enforcers, and protectors of the law. It is well-organized, powerful, and unfathomable.
Of course, today's Longtang has just been born, and there is only Chen Shuofang, the oriental leader, and other organizational structures are still under construction. However, because of Zhang Huban's quiet arrangement and help, the newly established Longtang, which has only been established for a month or two, already has a lot of existences that can be called martial arts masters, and the potential power base is already not to be underestimated, far from being comparable to those so-called gang forces in the world.
In the fourth month of living in Shanghai, Zhang Huban, who was dressed in a straight suit, was leisurely drinking coffee in a café on Nanjing Road, chatting casually with Irina Irina, a down-and-out aristocratic lady of Tsarist Russia who had become a clerk in a coffee shop, Uncle Han, who was wearing a black coat and a bowler hat, came over, leaned over and whispered to him: "Young master, Miss is here, and she is waiting for you at home!"
"Got it!" Zhang Huban nodded in response, the young lady in Uncle Han's mouth was naturally Zhang Huban's mother, Lin Yueniang. In fact, Lin Yueniang had just come to Shanghai, and Zhang Huban sensed it. After all, when Zhang Huban used a pill to help her cut her hair and wash the marrow, he helped her open up the eight veins of the Qi Jing by the way, and later taught her a set of tips for maintaining health and practicing qi. Today's Lin Yueniang, although she is not a cultivator, is also an innate cultivator, and her aura is much stronger than that of ordinary people, so she naturally can't escape Zhang Huban's keen and powerful divine sense.
Even, as soon as his mind moved, Zhang Huban easily found out that in addition to Lin Yueniang in the Lin Mansion now, there were other people Zhang Huban who didn't know. Zhang Huban, who heard the content of their conversation, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows lightly, and a helpless wry smile flashed in his eyes, and then he saw Irina sitting opposite, and suddenly smiled in his heart: "Miss Irina, my mother just came to Shanghai today. I wonder if I would have the pleasure of inviting you to my house? I think my mother will be very happy to see that I know a beautiful young lady from a foreign country, and she will like you very much. ”
"Oh, yes? Okay, but since I'm going to see my aunt, shouldn't I prepare some gifts?" Zhang Gongzi, I don't have any money," Irina said in a coquettish voice with bright eyes, and she couldn't help but smile.
Zhang Huban shrugged his shoulders and said noncommittally: "It's okay! Irina, my mother will definitely feel that you are the best gift she wants to see." ”
"Oh . . . Your mother's preference is very special," Irina shrugged and laughed as she opened her mouth slightly in an exaggerated way.
The two laughed, got up and left the café together, and sat in an antique black car of this era, and Uncle Han drove them back to the Lin Mansion. After getting out of the car, Irina did not shy away from holding Zhang Huban's arm and followed him into the three-story villa that made her marvel and whisper.
In the spacious living room on the first floor, with the footsteps of Zhang Huban and Irina walking in, Lin Yueniang sitting on the sofa in the living room, a beautiful woman in her twenties wearing a lilac cheongsam and a fox skin shoulder, and a handsome young man who looked sixteen or seventeen years old couldn't help but turn their heads to look over.
"Mother, your illness happened to be not long ago, why did you come to Shanghai if you didn't stay in Hangzhou to recuperate?" Zhang Huban walked over with a smile, and then looked at the cheongsam beauty and the handsome young man sitting next to him with a little curiosity: "There are guests at home!
Seeing Zhang Huban and Irina walking into the living room so intimately, Lin Yueniang, who was obviously stunned, reacted when she heard the words, and her eyes rolled slightly, so he smiled and hurriedly said to the cheongsam beauty: "Mingjing, let me introduce you, this is what I told you, my son Zhang Huban." ”
"Lakeside, they are old friends of my mother's past, your Uncle Ming's daughter and son, Mingjing and Minglou's sister and brother," Lin Yueniang turned to Zhang Huban and introduced: "Your Uncle Ming and Aunt Ming died early, the Ming family is a big family in Shanghai, and your sister Mingjing provokes the Ming family with one shoulder, and runs the Ming family's business well, but they are real heroines!"
When the cheongsam beauty Ming Spiegel heard this, she couldn't help but smile humbly: "Aunt Lin, you are talking too much!"
Zhang Huban, who sat down with Irina on the side with a noncommittal smile, introduced Irina to Lin Yueniang and said, "Mother, this is Miss Irina, a Russian nobleman I met after I came to Shanghai. I know you're here, so I'm here to meet her. ”
Zhang Huban's words are a little worth playing. Lin Yueniang first looked a little embarrassed and unnaturally at the mirror sitting on the side, and then nodded slightly to Irina and said hello: "Hello, Miss Irina!"
"Hello, dear aunt, I should have brought some gifts with me when we first met. However, I am the best gift for you. And, it's not the first time I've come to the house, so.." Irina smiled shyly and politely.
Hearing Irina's words, Lin Yueniang's face changed slightly, and even the mirror on the side couldn't help but frown slightly at Zhang Huban with a smile on his face.
