Chapter 1271: Yang Ming Was CapturedTranslator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Tian Long was shocked seeing Yang Ming and others, but he couldn’t help but smile proudly. ” Hmph , you didn’t know, right? I was Shaolin Temple’s most outstanding disciple at the beginning! Do you think you can trouble me with your petty tricks? Aren’t you overestimating yourself?”
Shaolin Temple? Disciple? Yang Ming was slightly caught off guard and immediately understood in his mind! Initially, he thought that this Tian Long also practiced some vile Kung Fu similar to Elder You, and trained to the point of being invulnerable, but now he understood it after listening to Tian Long.
Shaolin Temple’s Heng Way Kung Fu [1] was the best in the world. Whatever Golden Bell and Iron s.h.i.+rt [2] originated from there. It seemed that Tian Long had gotten the authentic teachings and had already trained until his muscles and skin hardened.
Speaking of Shaolin Temple’s Golden Bell and Iron s.h.i.+rt Kung Fu, many people thought that they were only legends in martial arts novels, and did not exist. However, Yang Ming knew that these Kung Fu really existed!
After getting in touch with the a.s.sa.s.sin world, Yang Ming was slightly involved with Kung Fu from a variety of sects in the world. He naturally knew of the several types of Shaolin Temple’s Kung Fu. In fact, whether it be the Golden Bell, Iron s.h.i.+rt, or even the Iron Palm, they were not magical!
Changing people’s muscles and bones were done using Chinese medicine. After experiencing much training and many punches, one’s body would become hard! When Yang Ming was practicing his fists at the time, it was the same with the Chinese medicine that Fang Tian had given him to soak his hands and feet. All of them were enhanced by medicinal means!
Yang Ming also guessed at the time that this Chinese medicine might have evolved from the Golden Bell, Iron s.h.i.+rt, or the Iron Palm from Shaolin Temple. However, Yang Ming’s training time was still short. It had only played a role in enhancing the strength of his fists. Like those who had been practicing since childhood, they had trained their bodies to be as strong as iron.
Now, it seemed that Tian Long was such a person! This was what Yang Ming did not expect. Yang Ming glanced at w.a.n.g Renping and Shen Miaotu with his side gaze and saw that both of them were also amazed and inexplicable. He knew that Tian Long had hidden it so deep that even w.a.n.g Renping, who had followed him for ten years, didn’t know his great skills!
Logically, with Tian Long’s skill, there was no need for bodyguard protection at all, but he still had a bodyguard to surround and protect him. It could only be said that he used deception!
Perhaps even Sun Hongjun might not know that Tian Long still had such a trump card!
Indeed, Tian Long was a young boy who had a history in Shaolin. No one knew it. Even Sun Hongjun and w.a.n.g Renping didn’t know it. They only knew that he had a good relations.h.i.+p with several of Shaolin Temple’s disciples.
When w.a.n.g Renping was sent to training, the instructor who trained him originated from Shaolin. The Kung Fu that w.a.n.g Renping learned was mostly Shaolin, but there was absolutely no mention of the secret arts, Golden Bell and Iron s.h.i.+rt. They all learned actual combat.
Even so, w.a.n.g Renping never thought that Tian Long himself was such a Shaolin master! He originally thought that these instructors were just Tian Long spending a lot of money to guide them in Kung Fu.
But now it seemed that this was not the case. Tian Long had a deep relations.h.i.+p with the disciples instructor invited from Shaolin Temple. At least, it should be a kind of brotherhood.
“Yang Ming, you didn’t think of that, right?” Tian Long was shocked when he saw the people present. His heart was more arrogant. He liked this feeling of having total control of everything. “I know you know a few Kung Fu. I also know your position in Song Jiang. It’s no big deal to use money to bribe a few of my underlings. But if you want to use those trash to deal with me, you’re just being whimsical!”
Yang Ming looked at Tian Long coldly, but he was not angry. He seemed to be extremely p.i.s.sed without the ability to speak. Indeed, Yang Ming underestimated Tian Long’s strength which was the biggest mistake in contributing to the failure of his plan!
He never thought that a helper around Sun Hongjun actually had such a horrifying origin, which was previously not mentioned by w.a.n.g Renping and Tian Donghua!
It was certain that Tian Donghua and Tian Dongguang didn’t know that Tian Long had such a secret art! Because if Tian Dongguang really knew that his father was so powerful, he would not pester Yang Ming to be his master. Isn’t it more bad*ss to learn Shaolin from his father!?
Yang Ming, although he did not want to admit it, he had to admit that these secret arts that were pa.s.sed down through the generations must be very powerful. He was unmatched to these opponents! Perhaps even his own master, Fang Tian, would not have any advantage!
Seeing that Yang Ming didn’t talk there and was sulking, Tian Long’s heart was even more refreshed. “Why don’t you be arrogant? Weren’t you quite arrogant just now? Can anyone convince Sun Hongjun to obey? Great, then you go and convince him for me! I will tie you to him to keep him company!”
As Tian Long said this, he reached out and grabbed Yang Ming.
Unexpectedly, Yang Ming did not resist this time but was captured by Tian Long obediently.
“En ?” Tian Long was somewhat surprised that Yang Ming didn’t struggle, but he immediately understood. He was too strong. Yang Ming’s struggle was just adding trouble to himself, but it was better to be captured without resistance. “It seems that you are still very self-aware, knowing that you should get captured obediently without putting up a fight!”
” Hmph !” Yang Ming snorted and did not respond.
Tian Long was even more convinced that Yang Ming was self-aware that he was no match for himself and became so obedient! Tian Long was overjoyed. No one knew how he managed to get a leather rope and tied Yang Ming’s hands together.
Yang Ming also let Tian Long tie himself up. After completely tying up Yang Ming, Tian Long went to tie up w.a.n.g Renping and Shen Miaotu. The two did not struggle at all. w.a.n.g Renping was also a peripheral Shaolin disciple. After knowing how terrifying Tian Long’s Kung Fu was, he wouldn’t be Tian Long’s opponent at all, so w.a.n.g Renping could only allow himself to be captured without putting up a fight. Otherwise, it would be merely asking for trouble.
” Hmph ! I will come back and clean up you two traitors!” Tian Long picked up Yang Ming from behind and just walked to the office door. He left w.a.n.g Renping and Shen Miaotu in the office and ignored them.
Tian Long was so happy deep down in his heart that it almost blew up. Initially, Tian Long thought that after Tian Donghua told Yang Ming that he wanted to deal with Yang Ming, Yang Ming would not come to Donghai so easily. Even if he came to Donghai, he might come with the police. Thus, Tian Long really couldn’t be helped against him! No matter how bad*ss Tian Long was, could he openly deal with the police? It was purely courting death.
Therefore, Tian Long himself felt that there was no hope in this matter. He could only let down the behind-the-scenes boss’ effort, but he did not expect that he would have such a great opportunity! Yang Ming is a guy who is arrogant and overestimated his ability. He bought over w.a.n.g Renping and Shen Miaotu, and he thought he could deal with me! Isn’t the result getting caught by me?
He put so much effort only to find it so easy to catch Yang Ming, which was what Tian Long didn’t expect! Fortunately, Tian Long had always kept a hidden trump card with him. Tian Long had never told anyone about the affairs of him obtaining Shaolin’s teachings. He didn’t even mention it to his sons, Tian Donghua and Tian Dongguang.
This was a secret in his heart. When he was five years old, his parents died because of the drought in his hometown. Therefore, Tian Long left his hometown alone, but he was adopted by a good-hearted person at Shaolin Temple at that time and became a Shaolin disciple.
Since Tian Long was talented and hard-working, after more than ten years, Tian Long actually cultivated the Shaolin’s secret art – Golden Bell, turning his body to be as strong as iron. After attaining the skills and pa.s.sing the eighteen bronze men phalanx, he eventually went down the mountain.
After going down the mountain, Tian Long found that the outside world had changed. It had become a debauched and corrupt environment. There was no practical significance in martial arts! So after he went north, he started a small business, but he relied on Kung Fu and soon managed to achieve some fame locally.
Of course, at that time, Tian Long was obliged to follow Shaolin’s teachings. He did not use his own Kung Fu to bully others and only fought back when he was bullied by others. Tian Long did not use Shaolin’s secret art, but rather some ordinary fist Kung Fu. He didn’t want to hurt others but just teach a little discipline.
Therefore, many people who were taught a lesson by him only knew that Tian Long’s Kung Fu was very powerful, but they never knew his teacher and his origin. Later, Tian Long met Sun Hongjun. The two men a.s.sisted each other and established a great foundation.
In Tian Long’s heart, the simplicity and kindness in the past became blindness in greed and turned into darkness. Until now, he was blinded by benefits and did things that betrayed loyalty.
In the great vat of debauchery and corruption, Tian Long lost himself and forgot the vows that he made previously when he went down the mountain and left Shaolin Temple and became a wicked person.
Perhaps it was because he knew that his current style did not match the Shaolin disciples, or that he wanted to keep a trump card in his hand. In short, he never mentioned anything to anyone that he was a Shaolin disciple.
But now, it seemed that Tian Long definitely wanted to keep his trump card, not because he felt that what he did was inconsistent with the Shaolin Temple’s purpose which was apparent from his prideful boast. This person, Tian Long, was entirely corrupted by his interests.
The deep secret in his heart had become an important reason for attaining today’s victory. Tian Long had kept it in for so many years and finally used his lifelong learning at the most critical moment.
Originally, Tian Long was also planning to do so. He would never show his own Shaolin’s secret art in front of outsiders unless it was the last resort. This was something that he kept to protect his life.
But now, at this moment, it had to be used. Shen Miaotu was pointing the gun at him. w.a.n.g Renping and Yang Ming were watching at the side covetously. Although in the beginning, Tian Long wanted to intimidate Yang Ming and others, Tian Long admitted that he had the mentality to show off himself, but after that, Tian Long realized how wise his decision was!
Yang Ming actually knew how to throw hidden weapons. The direction and position of the hidden weapon fired made Tian Long’s forehead break into a sweat with chills creeping up his back! The acupuncture points at the neck were the densest, and the accuracy of the acupuncture points shot by Yang Ming made Tian Long want to click his tongue!
Although the flying needle couldn’t penetrate into Tian Long’s body, Tian Long was not an unconscious person. Tian Long could still feel wherever the flying needle was shot! When the flying needle touched the skin of Tian Long’s neck, Tian Long was shocked!
Tian Long was also a person who had been practicing martial arts since childhood. How could he not know the position of the acupuncture points of the human body? With Yang Ming’s accuracy, if the flying needle really penetrated into his body, Tian Long knew that the loser who was lying down now would be him!
Once his acupuncture point was stabbed, he would temporarily lose his mobility and be controlled by Yang Ming. At that time, even if he had the strength of Buddha’s Attendant, he wouldn’t be able to save the desperate situation.
Thinking of this, Tian Long was glad to be lucky! It seemed that Yang Ming dared to come looking for him not because of overestimating his ability but with his own ability. Yang Ming’s flying needle-shooting Kung Fu should not be underestimated!
Therefore, Tian Long only tied Yang Ming’s hands behind him so that Yang Ming couldn’t have any adverse actions on his own.
Tian Long took Yang Ming out of the office, entered the elevator, and pressed the b.u.t.ton to the bas.e.m.e.nt floor. Tian Long intended to put Yang Ming under house arrest in the abandoned junkyard. Didn’t he want to be with the Sun Family? Well, let him be with the Sun Family!
Tian Long could lift Yang Ming with his left hand, and he did not seem to have trouble with it. This showed that Tian Long’s muscles were trained to a top-level. Even Yang Ming couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t become physically weak after lifting a person for so long.
After entering the elevator, Tian Long still carried Yang Ming, seemingly at ease. This showed that Tian Long’s physical strength was tremendous! Yang Ming had to admit that Tian Long was much stronger than him.
When Tian Long arrived at the underground parking lot, he opened a minivan door with remote control, dropped Yang Ming into the trunk, then closed the trunk door. Then, he jumped into the driver’s seat.
Although security guards patrolled the underground parking lot, they simply turn a blind eye to Tian Long carrying a person down to the vehicle! Firstly, it was because Tian Long was the leader here. Everyone was his follower, and they needed to survive. Who dared to ask Tian Long?
The second point was that among the people who played in nightclubs, some drank too much, created trouble, and did not pay. Such people naturally have to be dragged out to be taught a lesson. Hence, these security guards did not think it strange to see someone getting dragged out. It wasn’t an odd thing at all!
When Yang Ming was thrown into the trunk of the minivan, he didn’t say much. Tian Long was a bit baffled. Yang Ming didn’t look like a coward. Why didn’t he resist?
When he thought about it, there was only one explanation. Yang Ming knew that he wasn’t Tian Long’s opponent. Any resistance was futile, so it was better not to make an effort.
This kind of possibility was the most appropriate. Thinking of this, Tian Long was also relieved. He drove out of the nightclub and headed to the junkyard.
For Yang Ming being able to bribe w.a.n.g Renping and Shen Miaotu, Tian Long was still very impressed. He could achieve such a feat under his observation. It also showed that Yang Ming was not simple.
No wonder that Song Jiang’s Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan were his followers. Yang Ming established his own economic empire in Song Jiang in a short time.
However, what about it? Wasn’t he still caught by me? Tian Long snorted. This kid is still too inexperienced! But it is unfortunate. If I can make use of such a talent, it will be great.
Tian Long also knew that it was impossible. He and Yang Ming were like fire and water. He had no hope at all for Yang Ming to follow him.
This time, Tian Long didn’t even ask the driver to drive, but he personally escorted Yang Ming to the junkyard. It was also because he felt that Yang Ming was a terrifying kid and could buy the people around him. Then, he might have also brought over his other drivers, so Tian Long personally drove with Yang Ming.
Seeing Tian Long return, Zhang Jinguo was puzzled. However, he still had to put up an act on the surface and rushed out to greet Tian Long, but then he saw Tian Long pick up someone from the trunk!
Zhang Jinguo didn’t feel anything at first. Tian Long used this location as a place where he put people under house arrest. It was not a big deal to send another person, but when Zhang Jinguo saw the appearance of the person in Tian Long’s hand, he suddenly felt surprised!
The person in Tian Long’s hands was actually Yang Ming? Did Yang Ming’s plan fail? How could it be? Zhang Jinguo didn’t believe it. The mighty Yang Ming could kill two people by raising his hand had actually become Tian Long’s prisoner?
However, the reality was in front of him. Zhang Jinguo couldn’t help it! Yang Ming was indeed tied behind his back with a cowhide strap and was picked off by Tian Long from the car!
After confirming that the person in Tian Long’s hands was Yang Ming, Zhang Jinguo felt a chill in his heart! If Yang Ming is captured, what should they do? They were forced by Yang Ming to swallow the voodoo. If something happens to Yang Ming, wouldn’t they also die?
Thinking of this, Zhang Jinguo almost burst out in tears. However, in the face of Tian Long, he had to disguise it with a smile. It couldn’t be helped. If Tian Long knew that he had already followed Yang Ming, then there wouldn’t be a good ending for him!
He would probably be executed by Tian Long now! So Zhang Jinguo could only smile and greet him, “Brother Long, how come you are back? Who is this?”
Zhang Jinguo, of course, had to pretend that he did not know Yang Ming, because, before yesterday, he did not know who Yang Ming was. If there were a flaw this time, then he would die.
“This is the Yang Ming I mentioned. Put him with the Sun Family!” Tian Long spoke and threw Yang Ming to the floor as he commanded Zhang Jinguo.
“Yes, Brother Long!” Zhang Jinguo pulled Yang Ming from the ground and answered quickly, but he could only smile bitterly in his heart. After a while, when Tian Long left, he would ask Yang Ming what was going on. What was the plan!?
However, no matter what, those who are closer get better opportunities. Yang Ming was in his own hands. He might get the antidote first. As for the others, it was not for Zhang Jinguo to worry about, so Zhang Jinguo could only take care of himself first.
“Let’s go!” Zhang Jinguo pushed Yang Ming and entered the junkyard door. He didn’t dare to speak too arrogantly as he would offend Yang Ming. He didn’t dare to be too gentle, which would raise Tian Long’s suspicion, making Zhang Jinguo stuck in a dilemma!
Fortunately, Yang Ming acted as though he didn’t know Zhang Jinguo at all. Yang Ming didn’t react to Jinguo’s command. He stood up very obediently and followed Zhang Jinguo into the junkyard.
