"Fuck! You're bastard!" Several thieves said a curse word and swarmed forward with sticks in their hands.
Li Dong was frightened by this scene. As the diplomat responsible for the reception, if something happened to Zhou Jiping and others, he would have a greater responsibility. So without thinking, he rushed in front of Zhou Jiping and shouted at these ruffians.
Shouted: "Don't mess around, they are foreign guests"
But at this time, who would listen to him? The thieves still rushed forward aggressively.
But at this moment, Gudili and Buco, who had been standing behind, had dropped the books in their hands, turned into two black shadows and rushed out, almost twice as fast as those little ruffians...
At the same time, Zhou Jiping used gentle but irresistible force to pull away Li Dong who was blocking him, and sent him a reassuring smile. They were just a few street gangsters.
Zhou Jiping, who has experienced strong winds and turbulence, will naturally not take them seriously. Zhou Jiping is absolutely assured of the fighting power of Gudili and Buco.
All martial arts in the world are unbreakable, only speed is unbreakable! Gudili and Buco were trained by Zhou Jiping, and they are men who have seen blood on the battlefield. Their attacks are naturally quick and decisive, and they are definitely not these little guys who can only scare people with sticks.
Ruffians can compare
I saw them rushing towards their opponents like two ferocious African lions. They did not pay attention to the weapons or the number of people in the hands of their opponents. Their fearlessness, expression and indomitable momentum made the ruffians rushing towards them brandishing wooden sticks.
I felt secretly weak in my heart, and suddenly felt timid.
When two parties confront each other, slight mistakes and emotional changes will have an impact on the outcome of the fight. Although Gudili and Gudili are not very old, their fighting experience has been accumulated since they were young.
The scoundrels couldn't compare with them at all. The scoundrels who usually only bullied good people hesitated for a moment, but they were immediately noticed by Gudili.
The two of them jumped in front of the ruffians, and with a sharp body movement, they took advantage of the opponent's hesitation to turn sideways to avoid the impact of the wooden stick, and at the same time kicked out a side kick with powerful long legs. By rushing forward and turning, they
With the strength of his body, he kicked the two thugs in front hard between the chest and abdomen. The two guys who rushed in first were not prepared, and they were kicked off the ground. They paused in the air for almost half a second, and then hit hard towards
Then he fell out. When these two people fell, their accomplices behind were also affected, and the gangsters' offensive was stopped.
Taking this opportunity, Gudili and Buco took two steps forward, deflected the wooden sticks coming towards them, and knocked down the two guys neatly. In the blink of an eye, half of the eight opponents were knocked down, and the remaining ones were knocked down.
Several guys hesitated for a while, not even daring to move forward.
But this is China after all, and Gudili and Buco did not dare to attack too hard to avoid getting into trouble. They just wanted to protect Zhou Jiping. Therefore, although they defeated four opponents in the blink of an eye, these four
The guy who fell to the ground quickly stood up. Although these guys temporarily took a few steps back and their momentum was no longer as strong as before, they still lingered and refused to leave.
"Damn, I've got an idea, guys, surround me, beat that **** guy, and run away after beating him." The guy in the lead was very smart, and he quickly adjusted his offensive strategy.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Jiping stopped Li Dong behind him and was ready to take action. But with one side of his face, Zhou Jiping quickly relaxed again. He knew that there was no need to take action himself, because four fully armed
The armed police rushed over quickly
Seeing the armed police appear, the troublemaking gangsters immediately panicked. They threw away their weapons and scattered into the surrounding crowd. But these four armed police officers were obviously well-trained, and they didn't even need to say anything.
They divided the work in a tacit understanding, each locked on a target and chased after it.
In the blink of an eye, the four gangsters were pushed to the ground and handcuffed. At the same time, Gudili and Buco, who had reacted, also caught one each. However, they had never practiced grappling, so the gangsters caught by the two of them were terrible.
It was tragic. They were beaten so hard that they dared not move. The other two guys who saw the opportunity early did not get a good result either. When the onlookers saw the armed police appearing, they quickly joined in beating the drowned dog. Kung Fu
No big deal, these two guys were also beaten with bruises on their noses and faces, and were dragged back by people.
"Loosen your belts, squat down, and hold your heads in your hands! Be honest!" A young armed police major ordered sternly, instructing several soldiers to take several ruffians into custody. Just as the major turned around
, Zhou Jiping was surprised to find that the major was actually his former comrade-Xiao Long!
"Hello, thank you for helping us catch these troublemakers..." Xiaolong walked up to Gudili and the two of them and said to them in fluent English. But halfway through the words, the expression on Xiaolong's face suddenly changed.
He froze because he also noticed Zhou Jiping standing behind him
Surprise, joy, ecstasy... In a few seconds, the expression on Xiaolong's face changed several times. Then, Xiaolong didn't care to talk to Gudili anymore, turned and walked towards Zhou Jiping.
"What's going on? Do you know each other?" Li Dong, who was standing behind Zhou Jiping, was very attentive and quickly noticed the emotional changes between Zhou Jiping and the major.
"Yes, he was my comrade back then," Zhou Jiping replied to Li Dong
"Ah? You... no! You can't meet. It's not good for you or him. You can't meet." When Zhou Jiping said that the major opposite was his former comrade, Li Dong grabbed him as soon as he squeezed.
When he got in front of Zhou Jiping, he used his body to block the gap between the major and Zhou Jiping. His speed was so fast that even Zhou Jiping didn't react.
Of course, Zhou Jiping knew that Li Dong was right. No matter from any aspect, it would be inconvenient for Zhou Jiping to meet Xiaolong, who is an active soldier, unless they don't take the organizations they live in seriously.
After understanding this section, Zhou Jiping stopped at that time. He knew that soldiers were not allowed to have casual contact with foreigners without permission, especially Xiaolong, who came from the special forces but was now wearing an armed police uniform on the streets for Olympic security patrols.
It would be even more inconvenient to have contact with personnel. If I am not careful, it may affect Xiaolong's military career.
While Zhou Jiping was hesitating, Li Dong had already walked over to Xiaolong who was approaching Zhou Jiping. He first took out his ID and said hello to Xiaolong, and then leaned close to Xiaolong and whispered a few words.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Jiping saw that the joyful expression on Xiaolong's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a look of hesitation and intolerance. Obviously, the reasons Li Dong gave to prevent him from meeting Zhou Jiping were sufficiently lethal.
, so that he had to stop meeting Zhou Jiping
"Okay, okay, I understand." Xiaolong did not get past Li Dong's obstruction in the end. He looked at Zhou Jiping reluctantly, and then turned his head blankly. Okay, you can go, I will tell you the truth.
Report, I will ask you to testify for me when the time comes. Xiaolong turned his back to Li Dong and said loudly enough for Zhou Jiping not far away to hear.
"Thank you for your cooperation." Li Dong thanked Xiaolong, then turned back to Zhou Jiping and signaled: We can go.
Gudili and Buco packed up the books they had just thrown on the ground, and the group walked out of the crowd of onlookers and walked straight to the adjacent street. When they reached the intersection, Zhou Jiping turned around and saw Xiaolong standing across the Ruzhi street.
The flow of people, looking in their own direction from a distance...
Silent, a long silence. Zhou Jiping turned around the corner and didn't speak for a long time. He just walked on the street like an ordinary passerby. But even he didn't know where he was going or what he was going to do.
What
Seeing Zhou Jiping like this, neither Li Dong nor Gudili and Buco knew what to say. They could only carry large and small bags of books and audio-visual materials and hurriedly followed Zhou Jiping.
It is really unacceptable to meet a comrade who is as close as a brother to him, only to not be able to go up to him and talk about the farewell. Before that, Zhou Jiping had already suffered the blow of losing his family and family identity one after another.
Under the same kind of blow, I am afraid that no matter who you are, you will find it difficult to accept it.
"It's hard to return to your home, and you can't recognize your friends. I'm afraid no one is willing to accept this fate?" Just as Zhou Jiping and his group were walking forward in silence, a sigh suddenly came from behind.
Zhou Jiping walked forward blindly, with all his thoughts focused on what had just happened. He didn't hear the sigh behind him at all, but Buco's surprise cry immediately after that moved him: "Zhong Wei!
"
Zhou Jiping suddenly stopped and looked back. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhong Wei standing more than ten meters away? And next to Zhong Wei, that dark-skinned woman who looked like a little bird, wasn't that the obsessed girl?
Fang Fang, the aromatic girl from Zhongwei?
Li Dong didn't know Zhong Wei. When he knew that the shrewd-looking man in front of him was Zhong Wei, he didn't know whether he should let him have contact with Zhou Jiping. Just when he was still hesitating, Zhong Wei
Wei had already walked to him alone, and then whispered something in his ear. After hearing these words, Li Dong no longer stopped Zhong Wei from meeting Zhou Jiping, but instead took Gudili and Buco to hold their hands.
Put the belongings aside and wait with peace of mind
Meeting an old friend in his hometown, but not meeting an old friend in a foreign land. Zhou Jiping couldn't be happy at all when meeting him, especially after what happened just now where he couldn't recognize his comrades, his mood became even lower.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Jiping's first words to Zhong were not polite at all.
"What? You react like this when you see a comrade who has been through life and death? You're not enthusiastic at all!" Zhong Wei joked casually. Although he didn't suffer in words, he didn't mean to blame Zhou Jiping in his expression.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Being enthusiastic seems to be what you should do. After all, this is your territory and I am a foreign guest."
Zhong Wei scratched his head as if suddenly enlightened and said: "Yes!" After that, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly for a while.
"I have seen what happened just now." After laughing, Zhong Wei said to Zhou Jiping
"What about you? How could you come over and he didn't stop you?" Zhou Jiping pursed his lips in the direction of Li Dong.
"I'm different from them, I'm just a businessman," Zhong Wei said with a cynical attitude on his face.
"Businessman? What are you selling? Weapons? Or war?" Zhou Jiping teased
"You should ask whether it is revolution or freedom." Zhong Wei curled his lips and said, "Wherever there is injustice, there is me."
"Come on, do you consider yourself the Living Buddha of Jigong?" Zhou Jiping dismissed Zhong Wei's statement.
Zhong Wei laughed twice, and then his expression dimmed for a while. Zhou Jiping and Zhong Wei were speechless for a long time, and then Zhong Wei spoke again: "I came to say goodbye to you, I will leave tomorrow, I know you
I’m here. I really want to see you. Now that I’m here, I don’t know if I’ll see you again in this life.”
"Haha," Zhou Jiping smiled calmly and said, "Okay, don't make it look like parting between life and death. It's so sad. How about something happy? Have you cultivated the crystallization of friendship between the Chinese and African people?"
"No," Zhong Wei replied like a hippie. He turned around and glanced in Fang Fang's direction. What greeted him was Fang Fang's loving glance back, "This is a high-tech matter, there is no need to rush it."
"I'll give you a piece of advice," Zhou Jiping said to Zhong Wei in a serious tone. Seeing that Zhong Wei's attention was mobilized, he said: "Diligence can make up for weakness."
"Come on! Didn't you and Ms. Lais make some noise? This is a matter of international cooperation, which is quite difficult." Zhong Wei counterattacked in time, but unknowingly hit Zhou Jiping's sore spot.
Zhou Jiping shook his head helplessly and said: "I am betrayed by everyone now!" Then, Zhou Jiping briefly explained to Zhong Wei how Lais left him and Montaya's recent civil unrest.
"You have a lot of troubles, but I have to advise you with an old saying." Zhong Wei enlightened Zhou Jiping: "Don't belittle yourself! Think about it, that major was your comrade just now? You have just reached the position of major now, but what about you?
?Now you are the prime minister of a country. Although this country is a bit smaller, your every move is still related to the well-being of millions of people."
"Haha" Zhou Jiping knew that what Zhong Wei was saying was a great truth and he couldn't refute it, so he could only smile bitterly at the big hat.
"Look, do you know that you still have this attitude now? Needless to say, do you know how many people envy you? Many people die of old age, what can they do? It's just three meals a day and one drink, all day long
It's just waking up and dreaming about death." Zhong Wei's expression looked extremely serious, not joking at all. "But what about you? When you get old, you will look back and realize that your life has been a turbulent one.
, what you have experienced is enough to write a wonderful book, enough to make those mediocre people who have been busy for money and power their whole life look up to them. You have done it now."
"What you said sounds like something from "How Steel Was Tempered", it sounds familiar," Zhou Jiping said with a smile.
"It's the same! Do you still want to go back to your small mountain village and run that farmhouse? Wife and children are on the hot bed? Even if I change it for you now, why are you still willing to do it?" Zhong Wei said in an accusing tone.
Hearing what Zhong Wei said, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but nodded. Indeed, his mentality is no longer the same as in the past. As the saying goes, his heart is big now, and those trivial things can no longer attract him.
Interested
"But...some things are still lost, which is always hard to accept. You saw what happened just now," Zhou Jiping said with a slow sigh of relief.
"I understand this. You can't have your cake and eat it too," Zhong Wei nodded and said, "You should look forward."
"Okay, okay, stop talking about me, tell me when will you leave?" After Zhong Wei's consolation, Zhou Jiping's mood improved somewhat.
"Leave quietly tomorrow, don't let anyone shoot." Zhong Wei seemed to be very excited. He was completely different from when he was in Montaya.
"Is it convenient to disclose the itinerary?" Zhou Jiping asked carefully
"What's the matter? What I do is legitimate business. I will leave my glorious footprints on both sides of North America, South America, Mississippi, and the Amazon..." As he spoke, Zhong Wei pulled him up again, causing Zhou Jiping to laugh secretly.
"By the way, how is Huang Pihu? His family and his ashes?" Zhou Jiping suddenly remembered Huang Pihu's funeral.
"Don't worry! The arrangements are very good. I gave him a place in Malipo. These days, you can do anything through the back door. What's this called... unspoken rules?" Zhong Wei continued to speak unabashedly.
…
Unknowingly, Zhou Jiping and Zhong Wei had been chatting for more than an hour. It was not until Fang Fang over there made a voice expressing dissatisfaction that Zhong Wei and Zhou Jiping realized the problem of time.
"How about having a meal together!" Zhou Jiping invited
