After hearing what Zhang Xudong said, He Jingxian asked:
“Then why did they transfer my parents and my brother and sister-in-law to Beidu?
Aren't you just trying to hold them hostage right under your noses?"
Zhang Xudong said: "Maybe that's the meaning.
But I think there is a greater good intention here.
This may be a reward for our contribution and also an attitude of leadership.
The leaders used this incident to tell us that they know and remember all the contributions we have made.
Take the fact that the leader asked Dao Ye to ask for our opinions, for example. This also shows us an attitude.
He didn't treat us as his subordinates, but as friends or juniors.
There is something strange about this. Perhaps this leader has some connection with us.
But we don’t know such a great man?
Daoye, your current leader has said nothing else?"
After Zhang Xudong finished speaking, he frowned and thought about this matter.
The old Taoist thought for a long time and then shook his head and said:
"Nothing else was said, except that I heard him mumbling something to himself before I left.
It seemed like they were saying something like, "Zheng Dapao has already visited Brother Hui, so it's time for them to go visit Brother Hui too."
After hearing this, Zhang Xudong suddenly realized that this leader might have been a comrade-in-arms with his grandfather.
He said with a sense of relief: “Okay, don’t worry about it.
This leader might be my grandfather’s comrade-in-arms.
He should have a good relationship with Grandpa Zheng. I'll ask him when I call Grandpa Zheng.
It's time to contact the old man again.
Last time, he scolded me for half an hour on the phone because of my grandma and my little sister!
Every time I call, the old man urges me to go to school in Nandu. It’s really a headache.”
He Jingxian sighed and said:
"According to what you said, my parents will be safe in the North City?"
Zhang Xudong smiled and shook his head and said:
"Don't worry, not only will they be safe, they will be well taken care of.
Maybe Uncle He is also an acquaintance of this leader."
He Jingxian nodded and said:
"If my father hadn't made the mistake of killing the Japanese prisoners, he would have been a high-ranking official by now.
All his comrades and leaders have been promoted, but he has remained where he is.
After hearing this, the old Taoist was no longer worried. It would be easier to be an official if you have someone in the court.
It seems that Dongzi is really a lucky star for people like us.
Zhang Xudong said to the old Taoist, "Master, are you relieved now?
Go back and tell your boss that Xiaojing and I are still young, so we should focus on going to school."
After hearing this, the old Taoist said, "Dongzi, I am relieved, but the big problem has not been solved yet.
We in the Special Affairs Bureau can't just eat and not work, right? But if we want to work, we need strength."
After the old Taoist finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Xudong pitifully.
Zhang Xudong said to the Taoist priest speechlessly:
"I said, sir, our priority is to go to school.
But I didn't say I wouldn't help. If there's something you really can't handle, why don't you just tell me?"
The old Taoist nodded and said, "I know this without you telling me.
But I want you to help us train those young people.
Their strength is too low and they can’t run the stall!
You can't let us old guys take the lead all the time, right?"
Zhang Xudong frowned and looked at the old Taoist and said:
"Master Dao, you think highly of me.
Everyone has inherited kung fu skills, all they lack is time.
I don't have any magic that can help them learn quickly; they have to hone their skills slowly on their own."
The old Taoist continued without giving up, "Dongzi, you can be their instructor.
Look how fast the people who have been around you have grown!
I won’t talk about you yourself, but this girl Jing has entered the internal energy now, right?
As for me, an old Taoist priest, my internal energy, which had been stagnant for many years, has recently begun to loosen up.
And your grandmother and little sister, their physique and strength are different from those of their peers, right?
Dongzi, do you know how to refine some elixirs to assist in practicing martial arts?
I'll ask them to provide the herbs and the money themselves. Can you help them make some?
These people are all poor children, and their parents and ancestors also died for our China.
Moreover, judging from the situation above, I'm afraid these people will all be your subordinates in the future.
If you make friends with them now, wouldn't it be easier to lead them later?"
Zhang Xudong listened to the old Taoist's words, thought for a while and said:
"I don't know what I want to do in the future, so don't put that label on me.
However, it is true that if they were stronger, I would have more free time.
How about this, you ask them to find me some ginseng that is over a hundred years old, Polygonum multiflorum and Ganoderma lucidum. It would be even better if there is Tianshan Snow Lotus.
I gave them some recovery fluid to drink when they were exhausted from training.
After drinking the recovery fluid, let them practice their own techniques, which will speed up their progress."
The old Taoist was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Okay, I'll have them prepare these things right away.
Although these things are rare in the world, their families and sects have no shortage of them.
Whenever we ask them for something, these old stubborn guys always make excuses.
