Chapter 64: Solicitation
Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, USA.
On the southern side of the city bordering the Pacific Gold Coast, there is a huge garden completely privately owned, with a wooden plaque hanging horizontally on the tall white jade archway, on which are engraved in Chinese with three large characters "Zhi Gong Tang".
In the depths of the lush garden, hundreds of tall sandalwood trees surround a small courtyard, just like an ordinary house in the capital, with a shadow wall and a flower hall. On the ancient blue brick floor, large and small stone locks are neatly placed, and several open water tanks more than half a person high are filled with clean water.
In addition, in the corner of the courtyard, there are dozens of plum blossom stakes that are more than two meters high, high and short, as well as a row of weapon racks, on which there are a few ash poles, flower guns and hammers, and a few sharp knives that look like a single knife but are obviously much thicker.
On the steps of the pavilion corridor in the courtyard, three or four middle-aged people are standing under a big tree with a few young people, their hands wrapped, and the bear is standing on a stake like an old bear tree.
In front of the central hall facing the gate of the courtyard, at this time there was also a "seventy or eighty years old" old man with a clear face, he was wearing a loose cotton Tang dress, and he was crossed on a small futon, and in the room behind him hung a portrait of a yellowed color, with three pillars of sandalwood curling, and a three-foot knife with a black sharkskin sheath underneath.
The midday sun poured in, shining on the old man, and seemed to blend perfectly with the surrounding environment, the old courtyard, the old man, everything was full of "serenity".
However, at this moment, the two gates of the courtyard were pushed open with a "creak", and the harsh sound broke the peace in the small courtyard at once.
A middle-aged man with a panicked look hurriedly walked around the shadow wall and walked in.
"Master, it's not good! Ah Niu had an accident in China and was beaten to death!!"
The middle-aged man's emotions were very out of control, his steps stumbled, his face was full of sweat, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, there was a loud scream, and a heel threw himself in front of the old man who was groggy and sitting under the sun, as if sleeping.
"Whoa!"
The whole courtyard was suddenly boiling, and seven or eight people standing under the big tree with stakes almost wide-eyed and rushed over in unison.
And the old man, who had been meditating without moving, was also trembling at this time, and suddenly opened a pair of old eyes, like a click in the dark room, and two lightning flashes.
"What did you say?" There was a boom, as if several thunderbolts had been struck overhead, only to shake the entire courtyard and scatter dust on the corner of the eaves.
This old man, who was thin and thin, with all white hair and no flesh, had a loud voice, just like Hong Zhong Dalu, and as soon as his eyes opened, there was a thick cold breath that diffused, and everyone almost couldn't feel the warmth of the noon sun at once.
The skin on his face twitched for a while, and the cold light in his eyes surged, staring at the middle-aged man in front of him who was crying, until a long time later, he gasped for breath and stood up straight from the futon.
Regardless of the fact that all the eyes of everyone in the middle of the courtyard fell on him, the old man opened his mouth violently, swallowed a mouthful, as if he had an egg in his mouth, turned left and right, back and forth nine times, grunted, swallowed his abdomen, and when he landed, his abdomen sounded, as if a stone had fallen from a very high place in the water of the well.
"Get up, tell me how Ah Niu died!"
After a while, the wheezing gradually subsided, and the old man squinted his eyes and asked slowly in a calm voice.
"Hong Changqing in China just sent the news to the main hall, just an hour ago, Ah Niu challenged Wang Chan, the head coach there, at the Jade Bird Fitness Club in Harbin City, and was accidentally ...... by him Beaten to death. The middle-aged man knelt motionlessly on the ground.
"How is it possible?" the old man snorted suddenly, gritted his teeth and said: "Ah Niu was trained by me since I was a child, and his kung fu is better than when I was younger, and I have experienced so many fights and melee in San Francisco for so many years, how can someone with experience accidentally beat someone to death at a moment's notice? Could it be that Wang Chan is a boxing master all the way?"
"I have called Hong Changqing just now and reconfirmed it, knowing that the person named Wang Chan seems to be about the same age as Ah Niu, and he has practiced kung fu to the peak, so Ah Niu's palm knife can't beat him at all...... By the way, Hong Changqing also sent me a video ....... ”
The middle-aged man hurriedly took out a USB flash drive from his arms, asked someone else to bring the computer, plugged it in, opened a video file inside, and the picture played was the live video of the duel between Wang Chan and Tang Niu not long ago.
In the fighting classroom of Jade Bird, there are special high-definition cameras around each venue, which are shot from different angles at the same time, in order to record the content of on-site teaching and edit it into video materials to provide reference materials for future teaching. This video is taken out directly from the monitoring center of the blue bird, so the picture is very clear, except that there is no sound, it looks like watching a high-definition TV movie.
It has only been more than an hour since Wang Chan killed Tang Niu, but the speed of the transmission of new information has already been delivered to the other side of the ocean, and with the forces of Lin Yuanshan and Hong Changqing, it is really simple to get these videos from inside the blue bird.
The picture was obviously edited by a master, only the complete fighting process, less than three minutes from beginning to end, the last picture is that Tang Niu was crushed by Wang Chan and smashed the pipa bone, and the elbow smashed the throat collarbone, and fell straight to the ground.
Even if there is no sound at the scene, the process of the duel is very complete, and everyone can see Wang Chan's fierce determination in the picture.
The old man watched the whole video, his eyes were slightly sluggish, watching his most beloved grandson being beaten to death in front of him, even if this old man had been in the limelight for a lifetime, and had seen many gatherings and dispersions, he couldn't help but be disheartened, and for a while he only felt suffocated in his chest, and the anger that he had forcibly suppressed with his thick internal breath was finally unbearable anymore, wow, a mouthful of blood arrows, sprayed straight into the computer screen in front of him.
The whole person also paused at once, and was silent for a long time.
"You want this thing too?" At the same time, Wang Chan sat in Lei Ting's reception room, and the verdant "Tiangang Stone" shining out of his chest with one hand was a little strange.
The stone was of no use to him, but there were so many people who cared about it. A small stone, first there was Lin Yuanshan, who was bullying, and then Zhang Daocheng, who was beaten into a honeycomb like a honeycomb because of this, and now there is thunder in front of him.
I really don't know what these people think? Even if this Tiangang Stone was obtained by the legendary Wang Chongyang in Zhongnan Mountain from Lu Dongbin and Han Zhongli in the Eight Immortals, and it contains a great secret, but there are seven pieces of this stone, I don't know where it is scattered, and it is not necessarily limited to the country, and if you want to find it all, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Not to mention whether you can find all the complete, even if one day you find all seven Tiangang stones, it may not be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse, with a limited life time, but looking for these things, in Wang Chan's opinion, it is simply not cost-effective to the extreme.
What's more, I don't know how long this stone has been in Wang Chongyang's hands, according to historical records, I haven't seen him become an immortal or a god, or he died in a foreign land!
"Yes, I want you to do this!" Seeing Wang Chan show the Tiangang Stone that he was carrying, the breath of the three people in the room was all heavy, and Lei Ting nodded vigorously at Wang Chan: "This thing is very important to us, and it is the only reason why I found you this time, so I hope you can give it to us." Of course, we will not take your things in vain and let you suffer, as long as you agree, we will help you suppress the matter just now and get you rid of the charge of murder. ”
"That's all for you?" Wang Chan sneered inadvertently.
Although these people practice boxing and martial arts, they are not real martial artists, they are dressed in official skins, and they are all false and real when they speak, and they are unreliable when they hear it. "I'm afraid they still think that I don't know the use of this Tiangang Stone!!!They actually used me to beat Tang Niu to death? It's ridiculous!!"
"Of course it won't be just this condition!" Seeing the expression on Wang Chan's face, Lei Ting was also stunned, although he was tall, but his mind was not reckless, as the helmsman of the next generation of the Lei family, his eyesight was naturally extraordinary, as soon as he heard Wang Chan's words, he immediately knew that things were not as simple as he imagined when he came. At that moment, he tapped his finger lightly on the coffee table in front of him.
"Before I came out of the capital, my friend named Zhou Lin, who had seen you at an elder's house, talked to him once, and knew that he was very innocent, as long as you wanted, I could promise you to help you end this trouble completely. To be honest, Lin Yuanshan don't think that he can cover the sky with one hand and make trouble in the local area, in fact, the collusion between him and the red-sleeved forest has long been monitored by us! It's just that for some other reasons, it's not time to move him, I want to protect you and Zhou Lin, forgive him for not having the courage to reach out again!"
"Have you seen Zhou Lin?" Wang Chan frowned and was puzzled, "So you all already know about Zhou Lin? Did he tell you that this thing is with me?"
Wang Chan's voice suddenly became a little cold, if it was really Zhou Lin who told the Thunder Tiangang Stone in his hands, then everything he had done before could be said to be in vain.
Wang Chan doesn't have many friends, Zhou Lin is barely half, and the relationship is not bad, otherwise he wouldn't have come down the mountain to Harbin City, but because of this, the feeling of being betrayed is the most hateful.
"It's not him!" At this time, Zhang Xiu'er picked up the conversation at the right time and smiled at Wang Chan: "I still remember that the last time you and Lei Xing went to the Red Sleeve Forest, they had a conflict with Lin Yuanshan's two subordinates, and I saw this stone hanging around your neck, so you don't have to suspect that your friend betrayed you to us!"
Wang Chan stared at Zhang Xiu'er for a while, his eyes were sharp, and he saw that her eyes were always very clear, and he did not avoid his gaze, so he nodded: "Your conditions are very good, I admit that I am already a little moved, but why do you tell me to believe you as soon as we meet, just rely on your empty words? If you are sincere, you will handle everything well, and come to me again, and when the time comes, this thing will definitely be handed over to you." ”
"You don't believe me?" Thunder suddenly changed color, and suddenly slapped on the solid wood coffee table in front of him, the wind howled, slammed, and shattered: "I am the director of the Special Operations Division of the National Security Agency, I am so big, you are the first person who dares to question it in person, you don't believe me." Wang Chan, don't think that you have something to do with my younger brothers and sisters, just think that I don't dare to arrest you, just by virtue of your incident in Jinhailou a few days ago, I can directly kill you, do you believe it or not?"
As soon as the fur of the whole body was collected, in the second that the palm of the thunder slapped in front of the coffee table, Wang Chan reached out and gently picked up his teacup, took a sip slowly, and sneered in his heart: "Sure enough, I can't help it, play official power in front of me, put on a shelf, this thunder is a lot of scheming, know how to play psychological warfare with me, if ordinary people are afraid, they would have been frightened by him, and obediently give what they want, but it's a pity that I, Wang Chan, am not that kind of person, dare to force me to ......!"
Wang Chan's face was not moved at all, nor did he speak, but his eyes narrowed more thinly, and a trace of needle-sharp cold light began to flicker wildly in his invisible pupils.
Lei Ting's face was cloudy, and he suddenly stood up and laughed loudly: "Okay, good!" Pointing at Wang Chan, he shouted three times in a row, "Sure enough, I didn't see the fight between you and Tang Niu just now, but I can imagine the intensity just by looking at that scene! I don't bully you, I use power to suppress people, you fight with me, as long as you win me, I will do as you say, if you lose, you will obediently give me something, and serve under me for three years." ”
But Lei Ting had already had the intention of recruiting Wang Chan in his heart, and he didn't say it until this time.
"If you want to fight, you can! However, I have no interest in being your subordinate! I don't want to waste my limited time on other things, although your boxing skills are good, but you have been fascinated by the red dust, and it will be even more difficult to make progress in the future!"
"It's useless to talk more, see the truth under your hands!"
Thunder roared, his fists were clenched, the muscles of his whole body swelled violently, and the six or seven buttons on the upper body suddenly slammed and banged, exploded one after another, collapsed, and the good shirt suddenly turned into a piece of cloth for a day, scattering and dancing.
