"Tang Long?!" Shi Zhijian was stunned for a moment.
Looking at the man again, he looked haggard, had a face with a Chinese character, and a strong body. Although he was lying on a stretcher, his eyes were very sharp. Could it really be him?
Shi Zhijian was full of doubts.
Tang Long, whose real name is Frank Chen and nicknamed "Big Ax", is the boxer with the highest attack power and kill rate in history.
"We prefer to call him 'Shark'!" Pete was the only boxer to survive from Tang Long. When he recalled Tang Long, he said: "In fact, any nickname is not enough to explain his ferocity. Although Tang Long's reputation is not as good as Kate Slinder
, Antoni Marcus and others, this is mostly because his fighting career was too short. But the black market boxing community recognized the period of his reign as the darkest period in history.
Tang Long is a boxer with equally outstanding disadvantages and advantages. To be fair, his attack is the strongest in the entire twentieth century. If it were not for his poor physical strength, Tang Long might have continued to fight until he was 50 years old. In all his victories,
None of the games lasted more than four minutes. The fight between me and him was the most thrilling at the time. I weighed 122kg, while Tang Long only weighed 90kg. It only took him 38 seconds to get on the field and use his sharp legs like an axe.
Kicked me down. I lost but he was indeed a respectable opponent."
A Chinese used his fists and indestructible legs to conquer his opponents, conquered the United States, and conquered the entire world. Even Bruce Lee did not forget to use the name "Tang Long" in his movie "Tangshan Brother".
Express your respect.
Although Tang Long had unparalleled lethality, he became "history" after he stepped into the ring for the 97th time. This time his opponent was Christie Pauley, nicknamed "Bulldozer". This person is also known for his offensive power, but
Almost everyone thought that Tang Long would kill him as easily as cutting off a piece of firewood.
The game started. Pauli did not pounce on his opponent as usual, but uncharacteristically, he evaded Tang Long's pursuit at almost a hundred-meter sprint speed. The audience suddenly exploded, curses were everywhere, and the black market boxing ring was full of laughter.
I have never seen such a cowardly style of play.
Tang Long's eyes were fixed on his opponent, and his two "big axes" circled the attack, but could not touch the opponent. If he stopped ineffective attacks, Pauli would never have a chance. In this cat and mouse game
, the cat finally exhausted its energy and was slaughtered.
10 minutes have passed. Tang Long has never fought with anyone for such a long time in his life. Although his offense seems to have not changed much, an expert can see that in such a high-level boxing match, Tang Long
The most threatening attack has completely failed.
Paulie flew towards him with a sweep of his legs. Five minutes ago, he didn't even have to dodge. He could directly use the high-speed "big ax" to attack and cut off the opponent's legs. But now, Tang Long couldn't dodge.
He fell straight onto the ring like a broken stick.
Although Tang Long's fighting career was short, he was one of the landmark figures in the history of fighting. He despised rigid techniques. His kicks had no fixed pattern at all, but his moves were deadly. He advocated a regular lifestyle, and many
Talented boxers ruin their futures just because of unhealthy living.
He used his own achievements to prove the importance of strength and heavy blows in the boxing ring. But his lessons are also very profound. The quality of a boxer must be comprehensive.
If a certain aspect is particularly outstanding, it may cover up a large number of weaknesses for a long time. But as long as there is one weakness, in the life and death battle of black market boxing, sooner or later the opponent will catch it.
From the moment Tang Long lay on the ring, everyone thought he was dead!
Only his white manager had the conscience to pull him back from the ring, carry him on a stretcher while he was nearly dead, and put him on a cargo ship bound for Thailand.
For the white agent, doing this would ease his conscience of earning countless hard-earned money, but for Tang Long, it would just make him die later.
At this moment, Tang Long saw Shi Zhijian looking at him in surprise, as if he had guessed something, "Do you know me?"
"If you were that boxing champion Tang Long, maybe I would know you."
Tang Long stopped talking and just closed his eyes.
Seeing that he was unwilling to talk about his identity, Shi Zhijian stopped asking and just picked up the book and continued reading.
Interestingly, the book was "The Count of Monte Cristo" left here by an unknown stowaway. Shi Zhijian felt that this story suited him very well.
The cargo ship drifted on the sea for seven days and seven nights. During these seven days, Tang Long, who had shown a little affection for Shi Zhijian before, became wary of Shi Zhijian again. Even when Shi Zhijian was helping him feed, he looked at him with suspicion.
By Shi Zhijian.
In Tang Long's view, Shi Zhijian must have some motive to help him like this, especially after seeing through his identity, Shi Zhijian's various behaviors became even more suspicious.
All this time, standing on the life-and-death boxing ring representing interests, the cold-blooded Tang Long had never seen anyone so kind-hearted to do something thankless.
Buzz--!
A long blast came from the cargo ship.
Shi Zhijian heard the crew cheering in the cabin: "We have arrived at the Bangkok pier in Thailand!"
“You can have fun drinking again and get drunk at the bar!”
The boring crew life drives these land-hungry people almost crazy.
Thumb thump!!!
The sound of going down the stairs.
The ship owner Feng Feng Huohuo came down from the deck and said to Shi Zhijian with a happy face: "Ajian, we have arrived in Thailand, you can go ashore!"
Since Shi Zhijian and the ship owner were both "Chaozhou people", and Shi Zhijian was a good talker, the ship owner directly regarded Shi Zhijian as one of his family members during this period of getting along with him.
Now as soon as the cargo ship arrives in Thailand, it immediately comes to congratulate Shi Zhijian.
"Thank you, brother, for taking care of me all these days!" Shi Zhijian was a good person and immediately expressed his gratitude to the ship owner.
"That's so polite. We are all family members! Of course we have to take care of each other when we are out!" The ship owner was smiling all over his face. Suddenly he saw Tang Long, who was still half-dead lying on the stretcher, and said with a grimace: "Pu you?"
Mom, I’ve long said that it’s hard to make money like this, so what should I do with this short-lived ghost? You can’t just throw him on the shore to fend for yourself, right? Do you want me to take him back again?”
When Tang Long heard this on the stretcher, he opened his eyes nervously for the first time. He had been lying on the boat for the past few days. If Shi Zhijian hadn't helped take care of him and occasionally helped him turn over and rub his back to prevent sores under his body, he might have died long ago.
.
"What do you think I'm doing? I'm in business, not a rescue station. Why don't I throw you on the shore and see if anyone from the rescue station can help you?" the ship owner said cruelly.
Tang Long shook his head hurriedly when he heard this. He knew very well that the rescuers in Thailand were comparable to Alcatraz Island. Many poor people who entered the rescue stations were either sold or used for experiments, and in the end they didn't even know how they died.
Tang Long's eyes showed a trace of panic and a trace of fear, and he looked like Shi Zhijian at the same time. This person he had been wary of turned out to be his last life-saving straw.
Shi Zhijian originally wanted to let it go, as he still had a lot of things to do, but the look in Tang Long's eyes made his heart soften, and he thought of his good friend Bruce Lee again.
To be honest, Bruce Lee's unruly eyes have many similarities with Tang Long's, especially since both of them are martial arts practitioners.
"Brother, if you don't mind, just leave him to me and I'll take him ashore!" Shi Zhijian said.
"You take him with you? Good brother, you are young and too kind. This is a big burden. You are completely thankless by taking him with you!" the ship owner said, "Don't think I don't know. You have been taking care of him these days.
, but look at how he treats you, his eyes are fierce, he is completely an immature wolf! Be careful, if you raise him well, you will be bitten by him!"
The ship owner tried hard to persuade Shi Zhijian for a while. Seeing that Shi Zhijian was determined to bring Tang Long ashore, he didn't say anything more. After all, this short-lived ghost would be a burden on the ship. If he didn't die, he would have to arrange for someone to help him eat and drink.
spread.
"Then thank you for your hard work!"
The ship owner patted Shi Zhijian on the shoulder: "I told you, I work at Lee's Boat Company. I will rest for at least ten and a half days after this ship. If anything happens, you can come to me!"
"I'm interested, brother!"
"Silly, we are all family members!"
The ship owner was somewhat reluctant to part with Shi Zhijian, and personally ordered people to carry Tang Long and his crew to the shore on a stretcher before they parted ways.
On the Bangkok pier, a large group of Thais were loading and unloading fruits, foreign goods, teams of mules and horses, and even elephants pulling goods back and forth.
There are also some rickshaws like those in Hong Kong that are pulling people and goods, and many of them speak Chinese.
Originally, customers like Shi Zhijian were hot commodities, but when Shi Zhijian told them to pull Tang Long on the stretcher together, those people backed down.
How to pull it?
What if you die and are blackmailed?
Everyone is here to hang out, they all have smart minds and think more than anyone else.
Just because of Tang Long, no one is willing to take this job. More people would rather poop dirty pigs and sheep than poop him, a short-lived ghost.
Lying on the stretcher, Tang Long felt for the first time that he was worse than a pig or a sheep!
I remember when he dominated the boxing ring, surrounded by countless crowds, drinking heavily and eating meat, riding in high-end luxury cars, and living in high-end hotels. How have I ever experienced such a crime, let alone such discrimination!
For a moment, Tang Long secretly turned his head and squeezed two drops of heroic tears from his eyes.
Shi Zhijian waited at the pier for more than an hour before a driver driving a Sanbengzi bravely came over and asked Shi Zhijian if he wanted a car.
Of course I do, need I say this?
The driver bargained with Shi Zhijian, saying that he would have to pay at least three times the price for Tang Long on the stretcher, and that he would not be held responsible if he died on the way. Finally, he made Shi Zhijian swear an oath to the Buddha before he would agree to do so.
Thailand is a Buddhist country. The people have great trust in the Buddha, and swearing to the Buddha is a popular way of keeping promises.
After Shi Zhijian swore to the Buddha three times in one breath, the tricycle driver was content to help lift Tang Long into the car, and then let Shi Zhijian sit on the car, and then he drove towards the city with beeps and skips.
On the way, the tricycle driver turned on chatty mode and asked Shi Zhijian what he was doing in Thailand and why he was bringing a dying person with him.
Shi Zhijian said that he brought his friend to Thailand for medical treatment. He heard that Thailand has many masters with miraculous medical skills, so he wanted to have a glimmer of hope that his friend's injury could be cured.
This was originally Shi Zhijian's response, but unexpectedly, the tricycle driver took it seriously. He quickly recommended to Shi Zhijian that he knew a "miraculous doctor" and secretly said that this miracle doctor was not only proficient in traditional Chinese acupuncture and massage, but also proficient in "head lowering".
!
The tricycle driver deliberately said the word "lower head" in a mysterious way.
Shi Zhijian watched a lot of Hong Kong movies in his previous life, including two or three Shaw Brothers movies about "Head Down", which gave people the impression of being scary, evil, and weird.
Seeing Shi Zhijian's expression of disbelief, the tricycle driver felt that his faith had been insulted, "Don't disbelieve. Lowering your head is very effective here. I think your friend only has half a life left. Instead of taking him to the hospital for treatment,
It's better to seek treatment from this miracle doctor. Maybe a dead horse can be cured by being treated as a living horse doctor!"
Shi Zhijian looked up and saw that it was already getting late. He had no place to stay yet and saw that the tricycle driver was playing amazingly. He followed the trend and said, "That's fine. I'll trouble you to take us there to see if my friend can really be cured."
Here’s a tip!”
"Haha, I love hearing what you say, boss! In fact, when I saw you, I knew you were not an ordinary person! You are full of wealth and aristocracy -" The tricycle driver flattered you, hoping that he could get more tips by then.
…
After jumping around for a long time, we finally arrived at the place where the "miraculous doctor" lived.
But it is a floating house in the eastern suburbs of Bangkok.
The living style of the people here is somewhat similar to that of the Dan family in Hong Kong. They use wood and bamboo huts connected together, and then use rubber to wrap the surrounding wooden boards to form a deck. In the dark night, the lights are dotted and undulating.
The tricycle driver parked his car on the shore, whistled skillfully, and then saw a boat approaching not far away.
The boatman was Thai, and he and the tricycle driver talked in Thai for a long time, but they didn't know what they were arguing about.
The driver turned around and rubbed his hands, and said to Shi Zhijian with a smile: "This is the territory of the boat owners. Those of us who drive tricycles to carry passengers are embarrassed to get on the boat! This is my good friend Aji. We have a close relationship. I will ask Aji to take the lead later."
You go to see the miracle doctor—for travel expenses, introduction fees, and tips, one hundred dollars is enough!"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "You left us here and ran away. What if this guy named Aji is a gangster? Even if he is not a gangster, what if he doesn't take us to see the miracle doctor?"
"Uh, this-"
Just when the tricycle driver was in a daze, Shi Zhijian took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a hundred-dollar bill, tore it in half, handed half of the money to the tricycle driver and said, "Hey, I'll give you half first."
Money, when we see the miracle doctor, we will give the rest to your best friend Aji, then you can just ask Aji for it."
