Chapter 242: Shanghai Storm (II) Nine Sects Gathered, the Four Heroes of the Ming Family
International Hotel, second floor.
Qi Tiezui leaned against the window and looked out cautiously. There were cars coming and going and people surging outside, but there were twice as many Japanese military police on the street as usual.
Gou Wu, who was sitting at the Eight Immortals Table, said with a smile, "Master Ba, stop looking around and have a bite. This beef is cooked in the Western style, which you can't find in Changsha."
Qi Tiezui smiled, sat down, and filled his tea cup: "Fifth Master, you look much calmer than me."
"This isn't Changsha. I'm unsure."
Gou Wu was not so calm. He put down his chopsticks and sighed, "I have also seen life and death."
"If it weren't for the heroic hero Yan's divine arrival in Shaanxi, you wouldn't have seen me."
"Unfortunately, that place is too weird. I actually lost my memory of the underground palace." Gou Wu stretched his forehead.
"Even Queqiao Shao and Chen Kuishou lost their memories after leaving Zhashui, and the young man from the Zhang family is in a coma."
"Mysterious, really mysterious."
"There are so many mysterious things in this world. If we can understand even a few tenths of them, we can be considered a learned scholar."
"By the way, where is Blackback Laoliu?" Qi Tiezui is a well-mannered man, weak as a kitten, and usually he is most afraid of fierce men like Chenpi and Blackback Laoliu.
If the Buddha had not given the order, he would never have dared to go with them.
"He's keeping watch on the street. This guy can be described in one word: boring." Gou Wu simply started eating crabs.
"It's good to be bored, it's good to be bored. Then I don't have to be so sad during this meal." Qi Tiezui sighed.
He quickly picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, his eyes lighting up.
According to the family motto of the Qi family, whenever a member of the Qi family sees a dangerous tomb or wild grave in the mountains, he must seal the mountain and level the land to prevent disaster for the local people.
The items in his tomb had to be taken out because the tomb was sealed, but he could not bear to throw them away, so he exchanged them for travel money at the market.
This is how the business of tomb robbing and sand panning began.
Many of the Qi family's ancestors died in the wilderness and were mistaken for tomb robbers, leaving no trace of their bodies.
Therefore, the Qi family is different from other families in the Nine Gates. Except for Mr. Gou Wuye who is still young and doesn't know his place, the other families have deep hatreds and grudges, and chatting and eating with them will be very stressful.
The Qi family is a rare family that has been passed down for generations and has been very optimistic and content with their fate. This is because the Feng Shui master has a deep understanding of the mysteries of nature, is not affected by the fatigue of ordinary people, knows his own blessings, and is not afraid of sudden death.
So among these people, he and the optimistic Fifth Master get along the best.
Gou Wu bowed to the tall man with his back to them, staring at the Western paintings on the wall, and called out, "Second Master, it's rare for you to go on a long journey. Why don't you come and have a taste of this exotic flavor?"
"I'm not hungry, you guys eat." A pleasant voice sounded.
Gou Wu and Qi Ba didn't ask any more questions and started eating.
Er Yuehong was a little distracted as he listened to the hustle and bustle of traffic outside, and the angel and devil in the Western painting in front of him also made him confused.
Er Yuehong felt at peace in his heart, and change was a torture for him.
He didn't want to leave Changsha, but Zhang Dafo came to his house at night and left half an hour later.
That night, Er Yuehong accepted the secret, broke his habit of more than ten years, left Changsha and came to Shanghai.
Although he didn't dare to believe what the Buddha said about the immortals and gods, Gou Wuxian survived but lost his memory. Looking at the changes in the Japanese, this was indeed a big event that would break the world.
He was good friends with Taoist Master Zhou of Wudang Mountain and had received a message from him the day before.
The letter clearly stated that Wudang, Shangqing Sect, Longhushan, etc. were also looking for an ancient artifact that had fallen into the hands of the Japanese, and hoped to get Er Yuehong's help.
So, what on earth is this thing that can attract the attention of so many people from the Taoist sect?
He looked at Gou Wu. After returning from Shaanxi, Gou Wu had forgotten everything that happened in the underground palace that day.
I only know that it is a great terror and a great supreme being.
It is enough to make China sink and the world turn upside down.
dong dong dong.
Boom, boom.
There were three short and two long knocks on the door. Hearing this particular knock, Qi Tiezui's tense nerves were temporarily relieved, and he quickly got up to open the door.
When he opened the door, he saw Chen Pi and Jie Jiu who had changed their appearance. Qi Tiezui quickly welcomed them in, then closed the door and asked hurriedly.
"How's it going? Did you catch up with them?"
Chenpi ignored Qi Tiezui, sat down at the table and started gnawing on the crab legs.
Jie Jiu's face froze, and he could only say, "Old Ghost He is too cautious. But his nephew is simple-minded and has spilled all his stuff."
The way he arrogantly criticized Master Fo and the Second Master really showed that he had no idea of his place.
"From what they've said, that funerary artifact has most likely reached the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Hongkou."
Gou Wu's face darkened: "Are we really going to let them go just like that?"
He still remembers He Laogui's arrogant look.
It’s a pity that he moved a step too fast, otherwise Yan Shuangying would have arrived and they would have solved the matter long ago.
Chen Pi put down the crab legs and said with a strange smile, "Those are all Japanese police and military police over there, and the No. 76 headquarters is on that street."
"I'm not afraid of death, but our noble Lord Jie Jiu cherishes his life and dragged me back."
"What did you say! Do you have the guts to detain them?!"
Hearing these sarcastic words, Jie Jiu's face turned dark and he stared at Chen Pi and wanted to argue with him.
"Chenpi." Er Yuehong's voice sounded without any sadness or joy.
Chenpi immediately put away his provocative smile, not daring to sit any longer, and quickly stood up.
"No matter what grudges we had in the past, we are all in the same boat now." Er Yuehong's words eased the tense atmosphere a little.
"So, the things have been delivered by them." Er Yuehong sighed.
Things get even more complicated.
Gou Wu sat back on the sofa dejectedly, slammed his hand hard on the armrest, and cursed angrily:
"What a bunch of bastards!"
He deeply hated these local scholars who were running dogs for the Japanese. If it weren't for these traitors in northern Shaanxi, they wouldn't have fallen into the hands of the Japanese.
But the state of the country is such that many smart people are trying to make changes when they are in trouble.
There were many high-ranking officials from the former Nationalist government in the Wang Puppet Government in Nanjing.
If you say we were all forced to follow the bandits, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death.
"Fifth Master, the Japanese really take it seriously." Although Qi Tiezui was very unwilling, he still asked, "They actually sent it directly to the Japanese headquarters?"
I thought it was just a job of intercepting goods, but it became more and more complicated. Besides the Japanese, it seemed that there were several other forces eyeing this thing.
It's really hard to understand.
Gou Wu knocked his head and said, "I'm so sorry, I really can't remember anything at all."
Er Yuehong's expression was complicated. He whispered, "Master Buddha, in fact, he may not have figured out what is inside." "He just told me that it was the Zhang family. Everyone in the Zhang family received divine blessing overnight."
"We must protect that thing and not let it leave Shenzhou!"
"Otherwise, a giant god will descend, all creatures will be upside down, and mountains and rivers will be shattered."
"Many more people will die than now."
Qi Tiezui knew the mystery and power of the Zhang family.
I heard from the Buddha that the Zhang family will be like gifted poets from the moment they are born. One day in their lives, an idea will suddenly appear in their minds.
This idea makes them have a strong desire, a strong idea that they have to complete something, to do something that has nothing to do with themselves, and be forced to become a puppet. This is called God-given.
Qi Tiezui was quite knowledgeable and had seen a lot of exaggerated and threatening words in those ancient tombs.
But this is the first time I have heard such threats as "a giant god will descend to the world, all living things will be hanging upside down, and mountains and rivers will be shattered."
"Could it be that it's really something from the gods?" Qi Tiezui asked doubtfully.
"God, there is no such thing as a god!" Chenpi said disdainfully.
"How many people have died in this country? The number of people who die every day could fill the Huangpu River."
"If there were gods, would they just sit there and watch?"
"I say, if there are gods, they are either trash or—"
"Okay!" Er Yuehong's voice became heavier, and Chenpi dared not say anything.
Qi Tiezui stood up and said anxiously, "We must contact Master Buddha. Now, we can only rely on him."
"It's too late." Er Yuehong said solemnly.
"I've heard that the warship bound for Japan will set sail the day after tomorrow. The Japanese will definitely not miss this opportunity."
"Once we return to Japan, even if we have all the skills, we will be powerless to turn the tide."
"What should we do then?!" Qi Tiezui sat down dejectedly.
Er Yuehong smiled slightly and said, "President Xu of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce invited me to perform a play for the Japanese yesterday."
"It just so happens to be at the Hongkou Military Police Headquarters."
"But!" Chen Pi said anxiously, "This is too dangerous, and it will damage your reputation!"
Er Yuehong shook his head: "Reputation is just an external thing. As long as I can get that artifact back, it will be worth it."
"It's settled. Tomorrow we'll venture into the dragon's den and the tiger's lair!"
"You said that there will be a big play by Er Yuehong, a famous actor from Changsha, at the Hongkou Military Police Headquarters tomorrow?" A hint of thought flashed in Mingtai's eyes.
But he lowered his head and pretended to eat, as if he was not interested.
"No, no, there's nothing to see there. It's full of Japanese people, and only you can stay there, big brother."
"How do you talk to your elder brother like that, Mingtai!" Mingjing patted Mingtai's shoulder gently and said lovingly.
Minglou and Mingcheng looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
This little bastard thought they didn't know his identity and was still pretending to be confused.
We talked about this at the dinner table, how come you still don’t understand?
This acting skill still needs to be honed.
"This matter was jointly promoted by me and President Xu of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, and it is also to highlight the cultural exchanges between China and Japan." Minglou said casually.
Chairman Xu is an old acquaintance of his, but he is a genuine businessman with limited power.
What really made this happen was mainly due to his good relationship with the Japanese.
After all, that was Japanese territory.
As for the reason.
Zhang Dafoye in Changsha sent me a secret telegram just a few days ago.
The telegram simply said that Changsha's famous actor Er Yuehong would be going to Shanghai soon and asked the boy to take care of him. It didn't say anything else.
The two had been close friends for many years, and even Zhang Dafoye was one of the senior executives who knew about his hidden identity.
He believed that Zhang Dafoye would not send such a telegram for no reason.
As a cobra who has been hiding in the heart of the enemy for a long time, he has a natural sensitivity to intelligence.
Combined with the intelligence about Japanese movements obtained some time ago and the Japanese military representatives who will participate tomorrow.
He already had a terrible guess that the Japanese had obtained a treasure from Shaanxi and were plotting something big that would affect the entire situation of the War of Resistance.
The batch of funerary objects shipped from Shanxi were definitely not real funerary objects. They might be some biological viruses, top-secret intelligence, or even a key figure.
But at the moment, Wang Shi'an of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station is a complete idiot, and Minglou cannot use too many of the Military Control Commission's resources.
Comrades Dujuan and Sparrow of the Central Special Branch were lurking at No. 76. He had to get in touch with them as soon as possible to find out what the Japanese were doing.
"Go, Mingtai, maybe there will be some unexpected surprise." He looked at his younger brother deeply and said with a smile.
Of course, apart from the cuckoo and the sparrow, my stupid younger brother might also be able to try his luck.
Mingtai still lowered his head, mumbling with something stuffed in his mouth: "Okay, let's go."
"But you have to give me a few more tickets. I want to bring some friends who like to watch the show."
"Oh?" Mingjing asked curiously, "Mingtai, have you made any new friends recently?"
"Male or female, do you want to bring it to me for me to see?"
"Oh, sister!" Mingtai cried out embarrassedly: "A man! A man!"
"His name is Lin Nansheng, and he's an employee of Everbright Bank."
Mingjing was obviously a little disappointed.
But Minglou smiled secretly.
This Lin Nansheng was a young man that Chen Moqun specially transferred from Huangpu.
He placed him next to his younger brother to monitor him, but he didn't expect that now that Chen Moqun had betrayed him, Lin Nansheng still insisted.
However, Minglou was not in a good mood when he thought of Chen Moqun. This guy didn't want to kill the Japanese, so he kept targeting the underground party.
How many comrades have been beaten down over the years?
Many people say that Chen Moqun is extremely capable, but he was forced to rebel because he didn't know how to please his superiors. However, in his opinion, Chen Moqun and Bi Zhongliang from No. 76 are of the same kind.
Because of them, many comrades who are now undercover have only single-line contact, so even though he knows that their people are lurking in the 76th Military Control Commission, he is still unable to contact them.
Postman, sparrow, cuckoo, I hope you are all well.
