According to Xu Ze's request, Liu Ya arranged the hotel for Xu Ze at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Manhattan. The Ritz-Carlton, New York, Battery Park is Manhattan's only luxury oceanfront hotel. This state-of-the-art 39-story hotel overlooks New York Harbor, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty;
Of course, Xu Ze didn't live here to really see any scenery, it was just that it was relatively close to where Sun Lingfei's mother lived.
The high-end residence where Sun Lingfei's mother lives is located in the Upper East Side, the most upscale residential area in Manhattan. However, Xiaodao still could not confirm Sun Lingfei's mother's mobile phone number at this time, which made Xu Ze a little annoyed.
Because Sun Lingfei's mother rarely used a mobile phone to call Congressman Gray, and even when she called, it was through a fixed phone. Faced with this, Xiaodao was also a little embarrassed.
Now he is trying the most helpless method, painstakingly calling up Congressman Gray's call records, and analyzing and testing his call list one by one.
When they arrived at the hotel, after Xu Ze and Sun Lingfei set up, they received a call from Liu Ya. Liu Changye, the person in charge of the Liu family here, invited them to dinner.
Liu Changye is Liu Changfeng's cousin. He has been in charge of the Feilong Group for more than 20 years since he came to country M. He is considered a very capable manpower of the Liu family. In the past 20 years, with the support of the country, he has managed the Feilong Group. It was well organized, and its scale had skyrocketed. There were even two members of Congress with flying dragons behind them.
Naturally, Xu Ze would not refuse such an invitation. Not to mention that Liu Changye asked his son to take good care of them. Because Liu Changye was an elder, Xu Ze also had to meet him.
At this time, Sun Lingfei was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the goddess of freedom on the sea opposite, the gorgeous and busy New York Harbor, and the sunset on the sea that was about to set in the west. She sighed and said: "It's so beautiful. ,
Xu Ze walked over slowly, gently hugged Sun Lingfei's slender waist, and said with a slight smile: "After a few days, when everything is done, I will take you around the world to see all the beautiful scenery in the world. all over,
"Okay, Sun Lingfei nodded gently.
"You said my mother would be very happy if she saw this kind of scenery every day. The two of them looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window, and suddenly Sun Lingfei said in a low voice.
"She will be very happy if she can." Xu Ze smiled slightly and said, "To be honest, I admire your mother very much. Since she can divorce your father, she must be a confident woman, a confident woman." Women are generally able to make themselves very happy,
"Well, looking at the harbor outside the window, Sun Lingfei responded in a low voice.
Liu Changye's banquet address was actually at a restaurant in Chinatown, which surprised Xu Ze.
The Spring Festival has just passed, but the red lanterns hanging all over Chinatown are still brand new, and you can still see the festive atmosphere from the previous days. Most of the people walking on the road are familiar faces with yellow skin and black hair. On the streets on both sides, the signboards are also in Chinese characters, but most of them are in traditional Chinese.
If he hadn't known that this was the United States, perhaps Xu Ze would have thought he had arrived at an old street in old Shanghai.
Liu Ya, who was accompanying him, smiled and looked at him: "Brother Xu, if you come here before the Lantern Festival, it will be very lively here. There are dragon and lion dances every day, and there is also an ancestor worship ceremony. It is quite lively, comparable to Yan Beijing is much more lively.
Xu Ze nodded with a smile and said: "Well, now the control of all parties in Yanjing is very strict. Except for certain fixed occasions, such as the Ditan Temple Fair, etc., there are rarely such lively places."
"Yes, it's just that I haven't been there for many years. Sun Lingfei seemed to be reminded of some memories of her childhood by Xu Ze at this time. Now seeing this scene and Xu Ze's words just now, she was so moved Some sighed.
The three of them walked slowly along Chinatown, and soon arrived at a restaurant called "Cyclamen" not far from the door.
This restaurant looks quite antique, and is mainly in bright red. The pillars are decorated with dragons and phoenixes, which seems a bit tacky.
But Xu Ze knew that this was a reflection of people in a foreign land missing their hometown. These antique red colors, dragons and phoenixes could remind them of the origin of their bloodline and where their hometown is.
Not far from the door, there was a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman in a red Tang suit standing there to greet them, and there were many old men and young people with white hair beside them.
Liu Ya and Xu Ze were seen walking over. Next to them, a young man walked over with a smile, picked up an incense stick, and lit a long firecracker.
Xu Ze didn't know that Liu Changye had created such a grand scene, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and followed Liu Ya towards the restaurant amidst the crackling and sound of firecrackers.
Xu Ze took one look and saw that the middle-aged man who looked very similar to Liu Ya was Liu Changye, Liu Ya's father. He quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other person, and said humbly: "Hello, Uncle Changye.
"Okay, okay," Liu Changye held Xu Ze's hand tightly with both hands, and said happily and excitedly: "Xu Ze, I have heard your name for a long time, but I have never had the chance to come back to see you because I am abroad. , when I saw it today, it turned out to be extraordinary. I, the Liu family, are blessed.
Sun Lingfei was behind and called her uncle and aunt affectionately, which made Liu Changye and his wife very happy.
At this moment, the old men also stood up one by one and shook hands with Xu Ze enthusiastically, while Liu Changye also introduced them one by one.
These old men are all very prestigious senior figures in Chinatown. It is these old men who form the maintenance committee of Chinatown. Basically, these old men preside over all matters in Chinatown.
This time when these old men heard from Liu Changye that Xu Ze had come to Country M, they all wanted to come to greet Xu Ze and meet this leader among the descendants of Yan and Huang.
At this time, the restaurant was already filled with several tables of sumptuous dishes, and the tables were all filled with Moutai, the national wine that had been around for a long time. Looking at this momentum, Xu Ze knew that it was a great honor for him to come here today. You know, it is not easy to find two bottles of Maotai abroad.
Today, the tables are filled with aged Maotai liquor. Xu Ze knows that these old comrades are really not stingy and have taken out all the old liquor in their collection.
Everyone sat down at the table according to the old and the young. Except for Liu Changye and his wife and a middle-aged man who seemed to be not in good spirits, the other five people at Xu Ze's table were all old men with gray hair, and the rest Middle-aged people and younger guys, including Liu Ya, were sitting at other tables.
But fortunately they are all round tables, otherwise Xu Ze would definitely be asked to sit at the top. I am afraid that in front of so many old comrades, Xu Ze would definitely not be willing to sit down.
On the table, cups and plates were intertwined, and these old men took turns serving wine to Xu Ze. Xu Ze was so embarrassed that he had to drink it all in one gulp, and then returned the favor one by one; and Liu Ya's mother was beside him. She took care of Sun Lingfei, laughing and talking to Sun Lingfei from time to time, but she was quite considerate.
After Xu Ze toasted the five old comrades, he took up his wine glass and toasted the middle-aged man who seemed to be in a bad mood and was called Master Li by everyone.
Although Master Li didn't seem to be in good spirits, he was still quite generous. Seeing Xu Ze toasting, he picked up the wine glass and drank it politely.
However, when he drank, several old comrades next to him showed worried looks. Although Xu Ze was a little confused, when he saw Master Li finish the glass of wine, he covered his mouth, turned to the side and started coughing. .
"Hey, Master Li, your injury hasn't healed yet. Don't drink and eat some food today." An old man next to him quickly came over and gently patted Master Li on the back, admonishing him.
Several people nearby also responded, asking Master Li not to drink alcohol today.
But Master Li was nonchalant. After coughing a few times, a flush surged on his face, and then he smiled boldly: "I don't have to drink when others are toasting, but General Xu is toasting, let alone a small injury, even if it's a minor injury, I vomited two mouthfuls of blood and wanted to drink it.
Xu Ze also noticed something unusual at this moment. Master Li seemed to have suffered serious trauma to his lungs, so he drank some wine. After stimulating it for a while, his lung qi went up, causing him to cough.
At that moment, he couldn't help but asked with concern: "Why is Master Li so seriously injured in his heart? Xu Ze is really reckless. After dinner, Master Li and I will give a massage. It should get better."
"Ah, thank you so much, General Xu. After hearing Xu Ze's words, Master Li's face lit up with joy and he responded happily.
The old men next to them all showed joy at this time. One of them even said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that General Xu is not only superb in martial arts, but also a master of killing enemies and a miracle doctor in Xinglin. Today, Master Li is I've met a lucky star. When Master Li's injury is healed, if those yellow-haired boys dare to come to your door again in the future, I'll have to teach them a lesson."
After hearing this, Xu Ze realized that Master Li seemed to have been injured. After paying a little attention, I realized that Master Li was also a disciple of the training family. His internal strength seemed to be quite good. However, due to the lack of physical contact, Xu Ze could not test the opponent's true strength, but it seemed that his strength was not weak.
With such strength, he could be easily injured. This made Xu Ze a little curious, and he immediately asked: "I think Master Li's martial arts is not weak, but who was injured?"
Seeing Xu Ze asking about this, a look of anger appeared on the faces of several old men nearby. One of the old men said slowly and angrily: "General Xu doesn't know what he is doing. Chinatown has always had a strong martial culture. Plus, these outsiders are trying to help us." Attracted by those martial arts movies and the like, many people come to my Chinatown martial arts school to learn martial arts from my master. Master Li is also a top-notch martial artist in our Chinatown, and the apprentices he has taught are all very capable, so this Li family The martial arts gym is also famous in Chinatown.
"But a few days ago, there were a few yellow-haired barbarians who said that my Chinese martial arts were all provided by the Qihang Update Team to provide ghostly might, but they were useless. After asking about the name of Li's martial arts school, they When he broke in and started fighting, he not only injured many of Master Li's apprentices, but Master Li was defeated by one against two, and was injured by the opponent.
The old man said angrily: "At that time, that yellow-haired barbarian was shameless and said that he would wait for Master Li to recover from his injury in a few days, and he would come to his home for advice. Today, he will wait for General Xu to cure Master Li, so that he can teach those barbarians someday. No return,
"Yes, we must let those yellow-haired barbarians know how powerful our Chinese Kung Fu is," several old men nearby also said angrily.
Hearing the reason for these old people's words, Xu Ze also felt angry. He nodded and said: "Well, I will definitely cure Master Li's injury today, and teach those barbarians a lesson someday."
When Xu Ze said these words, everyone was overjoyed. The old men came to toast with wine one after another. Xu Ze also became proud now. When was he afraid of people who had drunk wine? Faced with these Enthusiastic overseas Chinese elders are naturally welcome to come;
Seeing Xu Ze's majesty, Liu Changye also showed pride on his face. Although he had not seen the power of his cousin with his own eyes, he had heard many rumors about it. It seemed that there had been a person When I saw the deeds that had subdued the entire military region today, I was really happy after leaving. So I also went into battle with a wine glass and joined the lineup to drink together.
When these old men saw Xu Ze fighting against six, their faces did not turn red and they were calm and composed. While their faces were full of admiration and admiration, they also said hello to the side;
As soon as these old men greeted them, the middle-aged and young people at the tables next to them lined up one by one to propose a toast. Most of the Chinese people can drink, and they have been proud of their ability to drink since ancient times. This is true for people who can drink. Admire
In particular, Xu Ze is a Chinese national hero who has been admired by everyone for a long time, and everyone is even more enthusiastic.
Xu Ze drank one glass after another, but Liu Ya's mother next to him secretly smacked his lips. He turned to look at Sun Lingfei beside him, but saw a smile on her face, as if she wasn't worried at all, but she was a little shocked. . As a girlfriend, wouldn’t she be worried if a man drinks so much? Don't you want to drink alcohol
Seeing the worried look of Liu Ya's mother, Sun Lingfei smiled and explained in a low voice: "It's okay. Aze drinks. It seems that he has never been drunk. I saw him drink more than a dozen people by himself several times. It's okay and he He said that alcohol had no effect on him.
"Really?" Liu Ya's mother also somewhat believed it. She is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family. Although she is not from the Ming Dynasty, she also knows that Xu Ze is a heavenly master and cannot be affected by ordinary poisons. I'm afraid this alcohol is really... It had no impact on Xu Ze, so he felt relieved immediately.
Everyone was drinking wine in full swing, when suddenly a young man ran in in a panic from outside. He ran in and shouted: "Master, Master, I'm sorry, those yellow-haired barbarians from that day came to the door again." , and two more powerful ones came,
As soon as the young man shouted, the lively atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became silent. Especially those middle-aged and young people, their faces are even more angry.
Those young people wanted to rush out, shouting angrily that they wanted to teach those yellow-haired barbarians a lesson.
However, the middle-aged and elderly people present were calmer and hurriedly held these young people back.
One of them, the older man surnamed Wang, frowned and said: "Master Li's injury is still not healed today, and everyone drank a lot. I'm afraid he won't be able to gain the upper hand if he goes on stage, or else we ignore him today." Call Officer Zhang and drive them away first.
The other old men looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
However, Liu Changye, who was next to him, laughed loudly and said: "A few uncles are not here that day, so we let those yellow-haired barbarians take advantage. Today, I, Liu Changye, am also here, and my nephew Xu Ze, everyone." Let’s go take a look together today. We must not let those yellow-haired barbarians take advantage of us, and we must get back the place we were in that day.”
"Today, all uncles and grandfathers and Master Li have a rest. I, Liu Ya, and our brother Xu are here. We must teach those yellow-haired barbarians a good lesson." Liu Ya, who is next to me, has had a few glasses of wine, and his expression is He was flushed and his face was full of excitement.
Hearing what Liu Changye said, Xu Ze also had a calm smile on his face, but his eyes were cold and he had no intention of objecting. The old men also cheered up and said in unison: "Have a good day today." Just go teach those barbarians a lesson and let them know that we Chinese are not easy to bully.”
"well,
As soon as these old men raised their arms and shouted, everyone stood up in unison, followed by Xu Ze, Liu Changye and others, strode out of Cyclamen, and strode towards the Li Family Martial Arts Hall.
Along the way, many people on the way knew that those yellow-haired barbarians came to play again that day, and this time the Liu family seemed to be taking action. The Chinese people on the way followed behind in high spirits. , heading towards the Li Family Martial Arts School.
Li's Martial Arts School is actually not too far from Cyclamen, only three to four hundred meters away. However, as we walked along the way, there were as many as one or two hundred people following behind us.
When I reached the entrance of Li's martial arts hall, I saw a large number of people crowding outside. In the courtyard inside the door, several martial arts disciples were holding their hands and feet, and they were all groaning miserably on the ground.
