Long Island, New York, USA, sunset golf course, two o'clock in the afternoon, sunny.
Cao Yusheng, one of the six families of Liemen and the head of the Cao family at that time, sat on the golf cart, glanced at the middle-aged man beside him, and felt quite emotional.
I have not seen my second brother for decades, but I didn't expect to look so old.
Thirty years ago when the four of them got married, Lin Leshan was twenty-three, Miao Guangqi was twenty-two, Yun Yuexin was twenty-one, and Cao Yusheng was twenty.
Counting his age, Miao Guangqi is only fifty-two years old this year, but now he looks like he is over sixty.
Thin and thin, with wrinkles on his face one after another, and his back is also hunched. The young man who was facing the wind at the jade tree back then can only vaguely see an outline now.
People have a feeling of meeting. I haven't seen him for decades, and at first glance, his second brother is so old now, Cao Yusheng felt a little uncomfortable:
"Second brother Miao, how have you been in the United States these years?"
"What else can I do?" Miao Guangqi smiled, "At home, at school, and in the laboratory, there are three points and one line, and more than twenty years have passed like this. Time makes people grow old."
"Second brother Miao, according to your Miao family's means, there are ways, why do you..." Cao Yusheng stopped in the middle of his words, but the meaning behind his words was obvious.
This Miao Guangqi is the descendant of the main line of the six hunter families. If it wasn't for the fact that this person had a different mind from others and chose to travel across the ocean, otherwise he would have been able to get the head of the Miao family at his fingertips.
Using the methods of the Miao family, it is not difficult to make myself look younger and more handsome.
But the current Miao Guangqi didn't seem to have made the slightest effort in this regard, which somewhat confused Cao Yusheng.
"Hehe." The smile on Miao Guangqi's face remained undiminished, "Who are you young for? Patriarch Cao, you should know about this."
The expression on Miao Guangqi's face looked relaxed, but his eyes were full of loneliness. Cao Yusheng was such a character, he was very good at observing words and expressions, so he fell silent immediately.
"Besides, the environment is also very important." Miao Guangqi said again, "I'm not as beautiful as your Patriarch Cao. I live in academia, and the older I look, the more advantage I have. Don't you Knowing these foreign devils, Caucasians have thin skin, once they turn forty years old, they are too old to look at. As for me, I look young among my peers."
Cao Yusheng knew that he was joking, so he laughed a few times, and then asked in a low voice: "Second brother Miao, this time you asked me to come..."
"It's about Dragon City, right?" Miao Guangqi nodded, "Speaking of which, it's really a coincidence.
The year before last, on my fiftieth birthday, a colleague from the International Society for Biological Research gave me three pieces of porcelain. I didn't care about it at first, thinking that these Europeans probably don't know much about Chinese porcelain, so giving me this thing is just a cultural etiquette.
Last year, a student of mine who came from a family of antiques came to visit my home. When he saw these three pieces of porcelain on my bookshelf, his eyes were straightened.
I saw that his eyes were wrong, so I asked him.
He said let him get started and take a look, so let's take a look.
As a result, people said that these were three pieces of Jun porcelain from the Northern Song Dynasty.
At that time, he offered 20 million U.S. dollars to take the three pieces of Jun porcelain away.
My laboratory happened to be short of funds, so I sold it for 8 million US dollars and asked him to take one of them. "
"Then what you meant on the phone before was that you were convinced that the porcelain came from Longcheng. Why is that?" Cao Yusheng continued to ask.
"It's not easy, what kind of job am I? I can't identify, can't I know how to detect and analyze?" Miao Guangqi said, "I found a small spot of mud in one of the vases, so I I took a sample and analyzed it, and found that this kind of soil was actually from Heilongjiang.
In China's Heilongjiang, the river water is rich in humus, so the river water is black, and so is the soil along the river. The black soil, the characteristics are too obvious.
This place in Heilongjiang was not the origin of Jun porcelain in history, so this thing must have been preserved near Heilongjiang for a period of time, so I naturally associated it with Longcheng.
But at the time, it was only speculation, and there was no evidence yet.
Then in August last year, one of my Japanese students was chatting with me, and by coincidence, we talked about Dragon City.
The father of this Japanese student participated in the war of aggression against China and was an engineer soldier.
At that time, Japan was fighting everywhere, and the country did not produce oil or iron, so the war resources were very tight.
After occupying the three northeastern provinces of China, Japan conducted a lot of geological exploration in the three northeastern provinces, hoping to find oil.
As a result, the exploration technology was not up to standard at that time, and the Daqing Oilfield was not found, which was left to the later New China. On the contrary, they found the Dragon City under the Heilongjiang River.
My Japanese student's father had entered Dragon City at that time, and even took a photo of the city wall, which is the one I faxed to you a while ago.
However, not long after the Japanese engineers discovered Dragon City, Japan was defeated, and the puppet Manchukuo no longer existed. All Japanese files on Dragon City were sealed up.
My Japanese student heard that I had looked for Longcheng back then, so he gave me the photo of his family biography, and gave me his late father's ten-page diary about Longcheng.
So, what is going on in Dragon City now, I probably figured it out. "
"So that's how it is." Cao Yusheng nodded after listening to this long description, "Second brother Miao, you are really lucky."
"Who says no?" Miao Guangqi smiled, "After giving up that piece of porcelain, I still have two pieces of Jun porcelain in my hand. I plan to keep one for myself, and the other one. I think your Patriarch Cao will be fifty this year, and we haven't seen each other for so many years, why not use this porcelain as an invitation letter, and invite you, a rich man, to come and see my second brother.
Oops, you are no longer the old fourth Cao. You are so rich that you have no decent things. I really can't help you. "
"Second Brother Miao was joking." Cao Yusheng shook his head, "I will remember the time we kowtowed together back then."
"We have kowtowed together, and we were injured together." Miao Guangqi glanced at Cao Yusheng beside him, and burst into a hearty laugh.
Cao Yusheng was slightly taken aback, and then laughed too.
Cao Yusheng couldn't understand Miao Guangqi thirty years ago, and he still can't understand it now.
Did he let go of that incident back then, or did he not let go
Is what he said about Dragon City true or false
Cao Yusheng couldn't see these things, but he wasn't in a hurry, he was here anyway, and it will take a long time to see people's hearts.
While the two were chatting, the golf cart arrived at its destination.
This is one of the tee points of this golf course. The lawn is emerald green, beautiful, and the terrain is very flat.
The two got out of the car, each picked a club, and the driving caddy set up the golf balls for them.
"Guests come first." Miao Guangqi said, "Fourth, judging by your body shape, you shouldn't have exercised much in these years, right? You, the head of the Cao family, one of the six leaders of the contemporary hunting gate, don't capsize in the gutter here. oh."
"That's not the case." Cao Yusheng smiled, and swung the club abruptly with a standard golf swing.
The golf ball quickly becomes a tiny dot in the air.
"Strike." Miao Guangqi clapped with the cue club under his arm.
…
While Cao Yusheng was swinging in the United States, Lin Shuo, one of the six leaders of Liemen, was also swinging in Heilongjiang.
Of course, what he was swinging was not a golf club.
It's the giant recurve bow in his hand, Mr. Zhui.
…
Zhang Yulong took the Bolang Cone to ride the wind and waves, and flew from the water curtain all over the sky.
He holds the Bolang Cone, which weighs a thousand catties, in his hand, and he walks with the Cone, with fluttering white clothes, as if a sword fairy in ancient legends came with a sword.
This attack that broke through the air came from his exquisite design, relied on his outstanding martial arts, and also benefited from his outstanding temporary resilience.
No matter what, at this time, Zhang Yulong's will is very firm.
It was this awl that took Lin Shuo's life and fulfilled his promise to Nie Xuan.
Anne's vision was actually blurred when Zhang Yulong saw the person arriving.
From the moment she was seriously injured by Zhang Yulong's sneak attack, she had actually been struggling to support herself.
After blocking Nie Xuan's "White Rainbow Piercing the Sun" with "Big Cut" for Lin Shuo, Anne was stabbed by the Wujin Sword and suffered another serious injury.
She knew that if she closed her eyes at this time, she might never be able to open them again.
She tried her best to stay awake, and tried her best to turn her head, trying to take another look at Lin Shuo.
So she saw the scene of Lin Shuo waving to catch up with the master.
The Lin family's "three unique martial arts" are "bow", "arrow" and "step". The combination of the three unique skills created the myth of the Lin family's invincibility.
The descendants of the Lin family have countless ways to use bows.
But there is a usage that is the most overbearing and unreasonable.
That is to pick up the chasing master who no one knows how heavy it is, and hit people with it.
As far as Anne knew, her mentor back then was defeated by this tactic.
This is the most brutal way of presenting power, brutal to the extreme.
While being arrogant, Lin Shuo also showed a bit of delicateness.
Mr. Zhui was followed by his waist, swinging from the lower right to the upper left, his posture was very similar to a golf swing.
Because only by waving in this way, Anne who was standing on his left would not be hurt.
There was a loud bang!
Anne saw Lin Shuo flying the big iron awl, and the man in white holding the iron awl.
Zhang Yulong came here breaking through the waves, and was beaten back by Lin Shuo until he broke through the waves.
He flew out like a cannonball, and returned ten times faster than when he came!
He and Bo Langcone smashed a big hole in that huge wave, and the huge wave itself has already reached the shore.
This is a big wave with a height of more than 20 meters. Once it hits a person, the consequences will be disastrous.
After Lin Shuo finished his blows, he took advantage of the situation to put Master Zhui behind his back, and then reached his hands to the left to support Anne, who was already soaked in blood and was slowly limp.
He turned around quickly, with his back facing the huge waves, slightly arched his body, and held Anne tightly in his arms.
The huge wave slapped Lin Shuo's back hard, without letting his waist drop half an inch.
When the big waves approached, Anne looked at Lin Shuo's concerned eyes with a satisfied smile on her face.
After a sweet smile, she lost consciousness.
