I put the difficulty in front of me and asked Chen Xuan to make up his mind.
To say it doesn't matter, to watch these gangs of subdued masters sneak into China and do evil is to make even a man feel useless. To say it doesn't matter, Chen Xuanyi and I don't have enough confidence, so there is no guarantee that our lives will not be in danger.
This decision made me undecided for a while, but after careful analysis for a while, Chen Xuanyi said to me seriously, "Ants are greedy for life, and pests are jealous of life, but we are not ants, but Chinese practitioners of flesh and blood. If
If you still choose to sit back and watch when something like this happens, I'm afraid it will damage your Taoist heart in the future."
In the end, I decided to stay and test it out, and then make plans after I found out the situation.
That night, Chen Xuanyi and I continued to stay at Huang's house to rest. We didn't say goodbye to Huang Guowei until dawn the next day.
But Huang Guowei was reluctant to let us leave, saying that the guy ran away last night and suffered such a big loss at the hands of the two of them. There was no guarantee that he would not be jealous. What would happen if he came back.
He is an ordinary businessman, and it is reasonable to be greedy for life. But Chen Xuanyi told him, don't worry, I guess that Puzan will not have the courage to come again in a short time.
Why?
Late last night, Chen Xuanyi used the sweet rain spell passed down by his master to break Puzan's black spell to lower his head. The guy will definitely be counterattacked by the black spell. The serious injury is still minor. He might as well just kick his legs and raise his braid.
If you feel unwilling to do so, you can only hold on to it.
Huang Guowei was relieved then, wiped his sweat, handed over a bank card, and said that there was a small amount of remuneration in the card, which was the labor fee of the two of them. It was a small thought and disrespectful.
I was about to refuse, but Chen Xuanyi took a step ahead of me, put away the bank card, and said to Huang Guowei, "Thank you then."
This little Taoist priest was quite straightforward. When faced with the bank card handed over to him, he actually refused to even make an excuse. After leaving the villa, I couldn't help complaining, "Are you a monk so greedy for money?"
Chen Xuanyi said sternly, "I am not greedy for money, but I accepted his reward to avoid being involved in the cause and effect."
I asked him in confusion what is cause and effect? Chen Xuan laughed, shook his head and said that this topic is more difficult to explain. We helped Huang Guowei exorcise evil spirits. This is a cause. After the deed was completed, he repaid us with money. This is called a result.
It's a cycle. If we don't accept the excuse, it means there is a cause but no effect. In the end, there is no guarantee that the reward will not be returned in other ways.
Secondly, the consumption level here on Hong Kong Island is too scary. A box lunch costs dozens of dollars. Since we plan to stay, we always need to prepare some start-up capital, don’t you think?
I was confused, but since Chen Xuan was willing to take the money, he had his reasons, so I nodded and didn't care about this topic.
Not long after, we took a taxi to a nearby Standard Chartered bank to cash out the funds on the card. I was stunned when I saw the amount. As expected of a wealthy businessman from Hong Kong Island, the money was as generous as grandma's. For a little loser like me who comes from a remote country.
In terms of money, the balance on the card is simply an astronomical figure.
Chen Xuanyi was also startled and couldn't help but touch his nose and smile bitterly. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xuanyi and I checked into the hotel again, took a shower and recharged our batteries.
A fight last night left me exhausted, and I slept in darkness. When I woke up, I realized that it was already the afternoon of the next day. My stomach was empty, and I was about to order two takeaways. I just found out that
I took out my phone and received a call from an unknown number.
The other party said that his name was Zhao Xu and that he was entrusted by Zhang Song to assist us in our operations.
I quickly became polite to him and exchanged pleasantries for a while. The other party said that it was inconvenient to talk on the phone and asked me to meet him in an office building and we could talk in detail then.
I agreed, called Chen Xuanyi who was still meditating, and we both went downstairs to the address provided by Zhao Xu.
The meeting place was in a square near Central. As soon as I got off the bus, I saw a middle-aged man wearing a plaid shirt and a scarf around his neck, walking towards me enthusiastically.
He stretched out his hand, shook my hand, and said, "You are Lin Feng, right?" Brother Zhang Song mentioned you to me. As expected, you are a young hero with extraordinary bearing.
This guy is a wonderful man. He is good at the art of speaking. His words and deeds always make people feel extremely friendly. I shook hands with him and introduced Chen Xuanyi next to me. Zhao Xu’s eyes suddenly lit up and he said it was Mr.
It's a great pleasure to meet you, the master of Junge.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Zhao Xu pointed to an office building next to him and said it was windy outside and there were many people, so why not go to my office and have a chat.
Chen Xuanyi and I agreed and followed Zhao Xu to the office building. His office was on the 23rd floor. When I got there and took a look, I discovered that there was a plaque for a private detective agency hanging on the door of the office, which was quite surprising.
After sitting down, I immediately asked the question in my heart, "Aren't you an employee of the Religious Affairs Bureau? Why did you set up a private detective agency?"
Zhao Xu explained that Hong Kong Island is a special administrative region with a high degree of autonomy. Due to this and other reasons, the General Administration cannot reach out. Naturally, it cannot just set up yamen locally like in the mainland. There is no official office of the Religious Affairs Bureau here.
The location and identities of these people are not recognized by the local departments.
Zhao Xu pointed to his office again and said, "I set up my office here to facilitate the concealment of my identity. As a private detective, the channels for investigating information will come faster."
The conversation got to the point. I asked him if he had any clues about the Southeast Asian wizards. Zhao Xu shook his head and said bluntly, "Not yet. These Southeast Asian wizards are also not welcomed by the local authorities. If they want to enter Hong Kong, basically
It was smuggled in through some unconventional channels, so it is difficult to trace."
Then he told me that in addition to himself, there were several expatriates from the General Administration on Hong Kong Island. Although these people rarely met in private, they still had ways to contact each other. He had already spread the news, and I believe that it will not be long before
There was a reply.
I nodded and said thank you to him. Zhao Xu shook his head and smiled and said that I should be the one thanking you. It is my duty to investigate foreign forces. Without your information, I might not be able to grasp it until now.
And the situation of the Japanese troops sneaking into Hong Kong Island.
I chatted with him for a while, and the conversation was very harmonious, involving some personal matters such as family, career, etc.
Since we were introduced by Zhang Song, Zhao Xu trusted us, so he didn't put up any defensive measures. He was more like an intimate big brother and told everything about his life on Hong Kong Island. He said that he had been in Hong Kong for almost 20 years and was building intelligence.
In the process of surfing the Internet, I also met a local wealthy girl, got married, and had a seven-year-old daughter. The family lived harmoniously and happily.
Having said this, Zhao Xu was a little proud and winked at me, "My wife doesn't know my identity yet. In two years, I will be transferred back. By then, I am going to confess to her, along with
The daughter returns to live in the imperial capital together..."
It is said that it is hard to leave one's homeland and one is deeply homesick. When Zhao Xu met us two "Mainland boys", it was more like meeting long-lost relatives.
He held my hand, with a melancholy look on his face, and said that he had been lurking on Hong Kong Island for ten years, and he didn't know if he would be able to get used to life after returning to the headquarters. Haha, let's not talk about it for now. My daughter will be out of school soon.
If you two don't mind, please come with me to pick up your daughter first.
Then he stood up, put on the coat on the chair, and added, "Brother Zhang Song has told me that I will be responsible for your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and you will stay at my house tonight."
