Eight hundred and thirtieth IX reasons to go

Chapter 839 Reason for going

Philipa didn't look too happy, but she didn't say anything, anyway, she didn't have the joy she had just now.

Hearing He Chong's words, Philippa pouted and turned around and left. He Chong didn't know if he didn't see it or saw it. He followed him back to the car and then headed to the hotel they had made an appointment.

They went to a local food restaurant, which tasted very good and had a lot of people. The two of them lined up for half an hour before they sat down. After the food was served, He Chong couldn't wait to start feasting.

"Why don't you eat?" He Chong asked strangely, "Are you hungry? No, you told me before that I was hungry, did you say you were too hungry?"

"Don't worry about me!" Philippa still looked unhappy and rolled her eyes even more, "Just eat yours."

"I said, where are you angry?" He Chong put down the food in his hand and asked, "I looked unhappy when I asked you to leave just now. What's wrong?"

"So you know I'm not happy too?" Philippa couldn't hold it in anymore and said angrily, "I thought you couldn't see it!"

"I thought you were unhappy because of Gerald, so I'd be fine after thinking for a while." He Chong had no choice but to say, "Tell me, why did you suddenly become so unhappy?"

"Why do you want to go to Hudson's house to get those things?" Philippa said hatefully, "Don't you know that once you enter their house, it's equivalent to entering the tiger's den. Just for that little thing, you don't even want your life?"

"Of course I know that Gerald will do his best to get rid of me at that time." He Chong smiled without surprise, "and he will definitely use the most powerful means."

"Then why did you agree to go?" Phyllipa asked in a questioning tone, "Just for that little antique? Can you give up life and death for money?"

It turned out that the reason why Philipa was unhappy was here. She felt that He Chong had ignored life and death in order to make money. This behavior was really disappointing.

"Haha, I'm not stupid, how could I go even though I knew I was dead?" He Chong smiled, "I haven't lived enough yet. I can't take the initiative to ask for death, don't worry!"

"Then you just perfunctory him?" Phyleppa asked in confusion, tilting her head, "Actually you are not going to go?"

"Not that, I do plan to go to the appointment in two days." He Chong shook his head, "Not only that, I also have to go there."

"What do you want to do!" Philippa was really anxious and threw the knife and fork on the table and questioned with a little tantrum, which even attracted the frequent attention of diners around him.

He Chong smiled slightly, but shook his head. He knew that the other party was caring about him and was afraid that he would have some danger, so he was not angry. He also knew that if he didn't explain clearly, the other party might be able to do stupid things behind his back.

"First of all, the twelve beast heads are the treasures of our country. Their historical significance has far exceeded their economic value. There is no doubt about this." He Chong said, "The coalition forces burned, killed, looted, and stole countless treasures in our Old Summer Palace. This kind of robbery is indeed very infuriating. So now I have seen the twelve beast heads that were lost back then. What's more, the remaining eight beast capitals have returned to the museum of our country, and only these four are left. I should take action in terms of emotion and reason."

"What happened back then..." Philippa was a little embarrassed, "It's true that our army is not good, it's a bit too much."

Philippa is a researcher of archaeology and is naturally very clear about history. She is even more clear about how bad things were back then than He Chong. At this time, she is naturally a little embarrassed.

As for the heads of the Twelve Beasts, the full name is the bronze statue of the twelve zodiac animals in the Old Summer Palace. It was originally part of the fountain outside the Haiyan Hall of the Old Summer Palace. It was a red bronze statue from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. After the coalition forces invaded our country, the bronze statue of the beast was snatched away by these people and lost to the overseas market.

However, in recent years, with the efforts of a number of aspiring people at home and abroad, the bronze statues of cow heads, monkey heads, tiger heads, pig heads, and horse heads have returned to collect in the National Museum. Then, a foreign friend held a press conference to claim that they would donate them to my country's rat heads and rabbit heads that were lost overseas. This was indeed done afterwards.

As for the dragon's head, it is preserved in the museum on the treasure island, only the snake's head, the chicken's head, the dog's head, and the sheep's head are unknown. Unexpectedly, it is preserved in the small family of Hudson.

So after receiving this news, He Chong let Gerald go without hesitation, and even said without hesitation that he had made an agreement to go there in two days. The primary purpose was to get these four beast heads and reunite the twelve beast heads.

This time, He Chong didn't plan to discuss with them with kind words. It would be fine if he gave it to himself honestly, but if he refused to be honest, He Chong wouldn't mind getting disabled for their family.

In fact, if the Hudson family was an ordinary family without evil deeds, He Chong would definitely not have done this. He was also a principled person. If this was the case, he would definitely pay for it and then return to China to donate it. However, the Hudson family is notorious now, and it would be a pity for them to make any blood.

"We can't control the things back then, and you don't have to apologize." He Chong sighed. In the past, these coalition forces always felt that they were invincible and were too aggressive, but they all ended in failure and were invaded by other countries. However, the losses could not be made up for. Moreover, these things did have nothing to do with young people like Philipa. They just let them, young people who had already understood the historical facts and were even more apologetic, bear the bad reputation. "So you can understand why I went now, right?"

"No!" Philipa was not so disgusted by the words, "Even if it is your national treasure, you can't exchange it for life as a price. You can use other means, such as diplomacy!"

"That's too troublesome." He Chong shook his head, "and there is another reason I want to go to their house to make an appointment."

"What?" Philippa was puzzled.

"Forever clear the subsequent troubles for you and make sure that Gerald will not come back to harass you." He Chong said, "The Hudson family is indeed a tiger den, but you believe me, they just look like it on the outside. The real tiger den is ten thousand times more terrifying than theirs, and I have already tried to go to such a place."

Speaking of this, He Chong remembered the Ma family in Fandu. Although his words just now included exaggerated, the Ma family was really no less than the dragon's and tiger's den at that time. Fortunately, Ma Leshan led the team to the Chu family at that time, otherwise he would have died there that day. However, even so, Ma Leming, a fairy-mart realm, almost killed him.

So now, a mere Hudson family really can't let He Chong take it seriously.
