The Japanese army has begun their plan to move south, so their good days are numbered. Tang Cheng, who is about to leave Shanghai, is already considering his own retreat. Recruiting some skilled guards has been put on Tang Cheng's agenda. The two men and one woman were obviously practicing masters, especially the middle-aged man named Xu Ninggui, who looked like a master at first sight. Tang Cheng did not go directly to the hotel, he just wanted to observe the other three people again, so that if things were not as he guessed, he could leave.
The three members of the Xu family rented two rooms. Tang Cheng waited in the cafe opposite the hotel for more than an hour before he saw Xu Ninggui, who had changed his clothes, come out of the hotel. Tang Cheng, who had been waiting for a long time, did not hesitate at all and immediately followed him. Unexpectedly, the whole Xu Ninggui was walking around and had no idea where the other party was going. Seeing Xu Ninggui stop again, holding a piece of paper and asking a passerby in a low voice on the street, Tang Cheng simply speeded up and came directly to Xu Ninggui's side.
"Are you seeking relatives or looking for someone?" He noticed that someone was looking over at the corner of the street. Tang Cheng grabbed Xu Ninggui's right hand and forced him to turn around and walk back. Xu Ninggui has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has never met an opponent in his hometown. However, he did not expect that he would be dragged into an alley by a young man. What particularly annoyed Xu Ninggui was that he still couldn't break away from the other party's pull. This feeling of powerlessness made Xu Ninggui finally understand what it meant that there was a world outside the world and there were people outside the world.
"You came to Shanghai to visit relatives or to find someone?" Tang Cheng forcibly pulled Xu Ninggui into the alley on the street and repeated the previous question. But looking at Xu Ninggui's expression, it seemed that he didn't want to pay attention to Tang Cheng. After all, Xu Ninggui didn't know Tang Cheng. Seeing this, Tang Cheng could only let go of Xu Ninggui's right hand and then whispered. "I was there at the restaurant where you ate. And I also know that those gang members have already started looking for you."
Xu Ninggui was already very wary of Tang Cheng's sudden appearance. When he heard these words from Tang Cheng, Xu Ninggui's expression immediately changed. Tang Cheng's released right hand turned into a claw and grabbed Tang Cheng's neck. "Hey! Eagle Claw Skill!" Xu Ninggui made a sudden move. He thought he could control Tang Cheng, but he didn't expect that Tang Cheng came first and grabbed Xu Ninggui's right hand. Xu Ninggui thought he could succeed, but he didn't want to be restrained by Tang Cheng. However, he had rich fighting experience and immediately raised his left knee to push against Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng, who was standing face to face with him, could only let go and retreat. Xu Ninggui, who had escaped with his right hand, immediately opened his stance. "Who are you?" From the brief exchange just now, Xu Ninggui had already seen that Tang Cheng was quite powerful and he was also a good practitioner. He didn't know whether Tang Cheng was an enemy or a friend, and he didn't want to really fight with Tang Cheng, so he asked Tang Cheng after he opened up his posture. Tang Cheng, who was retreating, first clasped his fists at Xu Ninggui and then took the same stance.
Tang Cheng opened his posture without saying a word. His original intention was to test Xu Ninggui's skills, but Xu Ninggui misunderstood Tang Cheng's meaning. The two started fighting in the alley, and Xu Ninggui, who was originally confident, soon regretted it. Xu Ninggui's kung fu was inherited from his family and he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He originally thought that the young man Huo Zhuge in front of him was just strong, but he did not expect that Tang Cheng's kung fu was not weaker than his, and his punch speed was also faster than his.
What Xu Ninggui didn't expect was that Tang Cheng didn't use all his strength. If Tang Cheng used all his strength at this moment, Xu Ninggui might not even be able to resist. Xu Ninggui, who was already out of breath, was quickly caught by Tang Cheng. He used the immortal to guide him and tapped Xu Ninggui's chest with his sword. Although Tang Cheng only used his fingers, Xu Ninggui held his breath in his chest and coughed repeatedly as he stepped back. "What do you want?" Xu Ninggui, who felt that his skills were inferior to others, pulled out the short knife from his waist with his backhand. He was planning to fight to the death.
It was a pity that Xu Ninggui raised the short knife in his hand and saw Tang Cheng pull out a pistol from his waist. Xu Ninggui, who was pointed at the gun, began to break out in cold sweat for no reason. "It's still the same question as before, did you come to Shanghai to seek relatives or find someone?" Tang Cheng laughed secretly in his heart as Xu Ninggui, who was pointed at by him with a pistol, gradually turned pale. However, he did not forget what his purpose was, so after Xu Ninggui threw away the short knife in his hand, Tang Cheng repeated the previous question again.
Xu Ninggui no longer knew what to say. He could only curse Tang Cheng in his heart that he was mentally ill! We are strangers to each other. Why do we need to report to you what we came to Shanghai for? But now that he has a pistol pointed at his head, even if Xu Ninggui is arrogant, he has to bow to reality. According to Xu Ninggui, their family of three came to Shanghai to find someone. It's just that the person they are looking for may have left Shanghai, so Xu Ninggui wants to find another acquaintance he knows.
"From the accent you speak, you should be from Hanzhong. There is a war going on there. I think life will be difficult here." Having figured out the purpose of the three members of the Xu family coming to Shanghai, Tang Cheng put away his pistol and immediately stated his intention. . "My family is in Chongqing. The mountains are high and the rivers are far away. The Japanese can't get there. My family has a large population, and most of them are women, so I want to hire some good people to look after the home. I know that all three of your family are. Lian Jiazi, so I want to invite you to Chongqing, this is better than asking others for help."
Tang Cheng's words made Xu Ninggui, who was secretly on guard, breathe a sigh of relief and thought to himself, if you had said this earlier, how could I have fought against you? It is not a low-level profession for martial arts practitioners to look after the homes and homes of wealthy families. Xu Ninggui, who used to run a bodyguard agency at home, does not dislike it either. It's just that it was just the first time that he and Tang Cheng met, and Tang Cheng also carried a pistol with him. Even if Xu Ninggui didn't think about himself, he still had to worry about his son and daughter.
The hesitation in Xu Ninggui's eyes was clearly seen by Tang Cheng, so he continued. "I'm telling you now, I'm not a bad person, and I believe you won't believe me. How about this, I'll leave you an address. If you can't stay in Shanghai anymore, you can go to Chongqing to find me." Leave only for the other party Address, this was also Tang Cheng's test. After all, he couldn't leave his family's safety in the hands of unknown people.
A few minutes later, a confused Xu Ninggui came out of the alley with a piece of paper with an address on it, but Tang Cheng had already disappeared. After solving this trivial matter, Tang Cheng continued to look for clues to Shanghai's underground party in the concession. If he could not get rid of the medicines in his equipment bag, there would be no way to bring the weapons and equipment he brought to Shanghai back to Chongqing. Perhaps because Tang Cheng was in a good mood, he accidentally saw a familiar figure on a street corner in the French Concession.
The man who was noticed by Tang Cheng did not look young. Tang Cheng still remembered this man because he had appeared with Xu Huanshan. The first place Tang Cheng met Xu Huanshan was in Shanghai. The man Tang Cheng saw now had appeared in a bookstore that Xu Huanshan often visited. When Tang Cheng handed Xu Huanshan several pistols, this man was also there. Appeared around. Therefore, Tangcheng can 100% confirm that this person is also an underground party without using system skills to scan the other party.
After finally finding someone from the underground party, Tang Cheng didn't care whether the other party was a member of Shanghai's underground party organization, so he used system skills to lock the other party first, and then quietly followed the target. The target targeted by Tang Cheng was obviously not here for shopping. Tang Cheng followed him all the way, first to a trading house, then to a grain and oil store, and finally to a newspaper office. Tang Cheng, who watched the other party enter the newspaper office with his own eyes, originally planned to wait outside and then continue to follow the other party, at least to find the other party's foothold first.
But he didn't expect that the target who entered the newspaper office actually changed his clothes and slipped out of the back door of the newspaper office. Fortunately, Tang Cheng used system skills to lock onto the opponent first, otherwise he would have foolishly lost track of the target. However, this also made Tang Cheng even more convinced that this person was a member of Shanghai's underground party organization. The target who left the back door of the newspaper office had already changed into a long gown. He didn't walk far before turning into a teahouse in the next street.
Through the street window of the tea house, Tang Cheng saw that the target was already sitting behind the counter. It was obvious that the target was either the accountant of this tea house or the shopkeeper here. Tang Cheng did not enter the tea house rashly, but sat down in the cafe in the next street. Tang Cheng had already locked the opponent with system skills, but he was not worried that the target would suddenly leave. The business hours of cafes and tea houses are different. When the tea houses are closed, the business of the cafes picks up.
Sitting in the cafe, Tang Cheng secretly looked at the time. Many shops in the street next door had begun to close, and the target was still moving in a small area in the tea house. As time passed, the target was still in the teahouse, but the location had moved from the front hall of the teahouse to the backyard. Only then did Tang Cheng suddenly realize that it seemed that the target, like Huang Ping, lived in the backyard of the teahouse. Tang Cheng immediately felt happy, which made it more convenient for him to entrust those medicines to the other party.
Tang Cheng, who was no longer stressed, immediately checked out and left. He first found a place to fill his stomach and then waited for the sky to darken completely. Ye Hai, who was targeted by Tang Cheng, still didn't know that something was going to happen tonight. At this moment, he was in the room in the backyard of the tea house, planning the drug procurement task assigned by his superiors. The Japanese have become more and more strict in their control of the concession. In the past, they could purchase materials that were in short supply on the market in batches through foreign companies. But starting from this month, even foreign companies only deal with bulk goods.
