Xie Wendong's heart trembled. Peng Ling gave him a different feeling from other women, including Gao Huiyu. For a moment, he wanted to agree to Peng Ling and quit the underworld! But it would mean giving up his ideals, which made Xie Wendong feel torn. He might not be destined to give up his ideals for a woman. If he really had to choose, he would rather choose loneliness. With a long sigh, he did not answer Peng Ling's words, and said lightly: "I'm a little hungry, can you accompany me to eat something?"
After that, Xie Wendong walked towards the commercial city. Peng Ling followed him and said slowly: "If the police get evidence that you have committed a crime, I will be the first person to arrest you!"
Xie Wendong stopped and looked up to the sky and said, "I believe that day will never come!" "You..."
In the afternoon, Xie Wendong returned to New Century, and everyone stayed there, eating bread and drinking beer. Seeing Xie Wendong coming back, Li Shuang asked first: "Brother Dong, who is this beautiful policewoman?" It turned out that when Xie Wendong pulled the policewoman out, everyone hid at the stairs to peek, and they also saw that the two had an unusual relationship.
Xie Wendong shook his head and said vaguely: "Just a friend!"
"Friends? When will Brother Dong call the police..." Seeing that Xie Wendong looked unhappy, Gao Qiang grabbed Li Shuang to interrupt him and changed the subject: "Brother Dong, now we know the lair of the Soul Group, should we arrange a sneak attack and teach them a lesson!"
Xie Wendong was a little upset and sat in his chair without saying a word. Everyone could see that Xie Wendong was in a bad mood and stopped talking.
After a long while, Xie Wendong calmed down, sighed secretly, ordered himself not to be influenced by the woman, and cheered up: "Investigate Huohong thoroughly, including the structure inside and how many people are usually there! A sneak attack is inevitable. I will not let the brothers' blood flow in vain, and I will not let others block our way! Let the Soul Group know what revenge from China is!"
Everyone was excited after hearing this. This was Xie Wendong, who did things neatly and without hesitation. I just didn't know what happened just now. Jiang Sen was very thoughtful and saw that the policewoman had a great influence on Xie Wendong. He secretly made a decision to check the background of the policewoman. If Dong Ge was depressed because of her, he would find someone to kill her first! Then he would ask Dong Ge to apologize. Jiang Sen didn't want anyone to influence Xie Wendong, because the latter was related to the survival of the entire gang. After so many years in Wendong, Jiang Sen had already regarded the gang as his home.
Xie Wendong said to Jiang Sen: "Lao Sen, you go and do this!"
The latter nodded in agreement. Dong Xinlei continued, "I have a few brothers who are good at getting information. Brother Dong, how about letting them go with Lao Sen?"
Xie Wendong hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Since it was Lao Lei who introduced it, it should be correct!" Then he said to Jiang Sen, "Lao Sen, are you okay?"
Jiang Sen was naturally a little unhappy. The Wendong Club's reconnaissance work had always been done by the secret team. Dong Xinlei had just arrived and was intervening in the secret team. He was naturally unhappy, but he couldn't say anything when Xie Wendong asked him this. He glanced at Dong Xinlei and said loudly, "No problem!"
Dong Xinlei was experienced and could see what Jiang Sen was thinking. He smiled and said, "Lao Sen, I don't have any other intentions. My brothers and I are all assassins. I went with you this time mainly to show you their strength. I wanted them to secretly protect Brother Dong, but I was afraid that everyone didn't know them well enough!"
After being told this by Dong Xinlei, Jiang Sen felt embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "Okay, I also want to see the strength of Brother Lei's friends!"
Xie Wendong was happy and said with a smile: "I am already safe now with you and Wenzi protecting me. There is no need to bring your brothers here! Besides, your brothers should also be members of the Hongmen. There is no reason for them to come and protect me!"
Dong Xinlei shook his head and said, "Brother Dong, don't you understand yet? Why did the old man teach you Tai Chi?!"
Xie Wendong was stunned. He had never thought about this seriously. He asked, "Old Lei, isn't it because I saved Rongrong that the old man wants to teach me Tai Chi to see what kind of person I am?"
Dong Xinlei smiled and said, "This is only one aspect. You should know that the old man is actually your master! The most important thing in Hongmen is etiquette. The old man has never taught anyone martial arts, except you. In the future, as long as you formally worship the old man as your master, you will be the next generation of Hongmen big brother! Although the old man has a son, he does not want to join the underworld... Dong brother, you are such a smart person, how could you not understand what the old man means!"
Xie Wendong really didn't understand what the old man meant, even now. He couldn't believe that he could become the leader of Hongmen. If that was true, it would be a great thing. But he was not a fantasist. He had to rely on himself to do things. He didn't have much hope for such a good thing. Xie Wendong said politely: "If that's true, then I have to thank the old man for his kindness, haha!"
Seeing that Xie Wendong was a little unconvinced, Dong Xinlei shook his head and said, "Brother Dong, no matter what, you are now the boss of a gang. Your life is no longer your own, but related to the survival of others. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen your protection. It is also my responsibility!" After that, he took out his mobile phone and called his brother.
Xie Wendong sighed and thought to himself, will he still need to go to school in the future? Having a group of people following him is like hanging a big sign on his head with five big words written on it: I am a gangster! Xie Wendong is a little worried about his future situation.
After talking with everyone for a while, Xie Wendong felt a little tired because his wounds had not healed yet. He said to everyone, "I will go back to school first. Is there anything else you need?"
Jiang Sen quickly stood up and said, "Brother Dong, the Soul Team has assassinated you twice in two days. It is very dangerous to go back to the school dormitory now. I hope Brother Dong can live outside for the time being, so that it will be easier for the brothers to protect him!"
Xie Wendong had not yet had enough of his college life, so he shook his head and said, "Lao Sen, don't worry too much, nothing will happen!" As he said that, he was about to walk out.
Sanyan stopped Xie Wendong and said, "Brother Dong, what Lao Sen said is right. We must guard against the Soul Group. It's too dangerous to go back to school!"
Dong Xinlei continued, "The Soul Group is not a gang that will give up its goals easily. Now that you have become their target, they will come to assassinate you again. Brother Dong, you don't want your roommates to suffer with you, right?!"
Others also said yes. Xie Wendong sat back in his seat helplessly and said with a smile: "It seems that you are planning to rebel collectively?"
"Everything is for your safety!!" everyone said in unison.
After a while, Dong Xinlei's friends finally arrived. There were five people in total, five very young people, four men and one woman. Dong Xinlei introduced them to Xie Wendong and said, "This is Brother Dong. Your future mission is to protect him! Do you understand?"
The five people nodded in unison. They had met Xie Wendong. The remaining assassins of New Century were killed by these people. Xie Wendong had forgotten about this. Seeing this, he felt that these five people and Dong Xinlei were not brothers, but a master-subordinate relationship. Dong Xinlei introduced Xie Wendong one by one: "The five of them are both my subordinates and my brothers. They are Jinyan, Muzi, Shuijing, Huoyan, and Tushan." Dong Xinlei said their names every time he pointed at a person.
Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth? Xie Wendong secretly thought that their names were interesting, and looked at the five people carefully. These five people looked very ordinary, so ordinary that you would not pay attention to them for a second time if they were thrown into the crowd. Xie Wendong knew that ordinary appearance was definitely the best disguise.
Then Dong Xinlei introduced Jiang Sen to the five people and asked them to cooperate with Jiang Sen in reconnaissance. After Jiang Sen led the five people away, Xie Wendong asked Dong Xinlei: "How strong is the Hongmen, and how many people are there under the sect?"
Dong Xinlei thought for a moment and said, "North of the Yangtze River, except for Tibet, Xinjiang, and H Province, we have not developed into other provinces. We have influence in all other provinces! This is the kingdom that several generations of leaders have worked hard to build. I can't tell you exactly how many gang members there are, but there should be no less than 20,000 disciples who have worshipped us!"
Hongmen is very strict in accepting people, and will not accept anyone who is not loyal. To become a member, one must first pay respect to the founder, drink the entrance wine, and swear to be loyal to Hongmen for life. This process is what Dong Xinlei calls "paying respect to the sect", and only then can one be considered a formal disciple of Hongmen. In fact, there are many more disciples in Hongmen who have not paid respect to the sect than formal disciples.
Xie Wendong didn't understand these things. He was shocked when he heard the number of 20,000. He was secretly amazed at the strength of the Hongmen. Xie Wendong said to everyone, "Now there is nothing to do. You can go and have fun. I'm afraid you won't have time after a while!"
Gao Qiang asked in confusion: "Brother Dong, what is Hongmen?"
Everyone except Dong Xinlei stared at Xie Wendong, not understanding what was going on. Xie Wendong secretly said that he was confused, and then recounted the process of going to the old man. Everyone then realized that the person who saved Xie Wendong was the leader of the North Hongmen, and was surprised that the Hongmen still existed. After he finished speaking, Xie Wendong stood up and said, "I'll go back to school first!"
Li Shuang dissuaded him: "Brother Dong, didn't we agree not to live in school?"
"Damn it! I'm going back to class!" Xie Wendong was upset and walked out of the meeting room. Dong Xinlei laughed. Xie Wendong was still a teenager under 20 years old. Of course he would rebel when being watched like this.
Walking on the forest path of H University, Dong Xinlei said, "Brother Dong, do you believe that there is still a martial arts world now?"
"Jianghu?" Xie Wendong looked at Dong Xinlei strangely, shook his head and said, "I have only heard of Jianghu in novels and movies. I don't know whether it exists now. But it should no longer exist. There are fewer and fewer people learning martial arts, especially masters. Without the martial arts world, where would the Jianghu come from!"
Dong Xinlei laughed and said, "Brother Dong, you are wrong. There is still a martial arts world. People who live in the martial arts world may not necessarily know martial arts. For example, the Hongmen should be considered a member of the martial arts world!"
Xie Wendong thought for a moment and said, "Even if there is, what's the difference between Jianghu and the underworld? They are all doing underworld business and are afraid of being exposed!"
Dong Xinlei said: "There is still a difference. In the underworld, you can do whatever you want, but in the Jianghu, etiquette and morality are important. Cunning people have no way to survive here, and will be despised by other sects in the Jianghu, and even besieged!"
Xie Wendong was stunned and asked, "Lao Lei, what is your intention in saying this?"
