Lu Jing did not answer but asked: "Do you know who Jingguo's grandfather is?"
Tao Siming shook his head. He had only joined the Anti-Black and White Alliance for ten years, and Deng Jingguo's father had returned to the spiritual realm twelve years ago.
The Anti-Black and White Alliance was actually the foundation of the Deng family. He was at most a rising star who became a shareholder by virtue of his outstanding business capabilities. Of course, Tao Siming and Jingguo were good brothers with similar ideals and were not outsiders.
That's why he can sit here and have this conversation tonight.
"My grandpa?" Deng Jingguo also frowned. "From childhood to adulthood, I have never heard my father mention my grandpa."
The three words "Huo Zhengkui" caused a huge uproar in the hearts of Deng Jingguo and Tao Siming. The two masters who had experienced many storms were stunned.
Among the Chinese travelers in New York County, almost no one does not know Huo Zhengkui. Well, the new generation may not know him, but the middle-aged and elderly people like them know very well who Huo Zhengkui is.
He is the founder of the Spirit Walker organization (gang) in Chinatown, New York County, and was active in the last century.
Since their immigration, the Chinese in New York County have always suffered unfair treatment, capital oppression and racial discrimination. The Chinese immigrants were engaged in dirty and tiring work in mines, farms, cigar factories, lumber mills and other places that white people were unwilling to do.
When the economic crisis hit the Free Federation, a large number of white people were unemployed and had to do dirty and backbreaking work, while the Chinese were able to have enough food and clothing, and thus became the target of the government's attempt to divert conflicts.
The white people criticized the Chinese people verbally and in writing, and the government took advantage of the situation to pass the Chinese Exclusion Act, etc., and life was very difficult for the Chinese people.
In this context, an organization of spirit travelers (gang) came into being. This gang was called "Brotherhood". It connected the poor people at the bottom and the wealthy class at the top. It cooperated and bargained with the government while dealing with the exploitation of the capitalist class, and even resorted to armed resistance when necessary.
At the peak of the fraternity, nine out of ten Chinese were members of the organization.
:But the complex structure of new members also led to internal instability. When Huo Zhenggui was alive, everyone obeyed him, and the brotherhood was able to survive with difficulty.
After Huo Zhengkui returned to the Spirit Realm, with the instigation of the New Covenant County government, the Brotherhood split into three major organizations, which are the now famous Chinese Spirit Realm Walker Organizations: Black Dragon Hall, Baolin Hall, and Hong Gang.
"My father is Huo Zhengkui's illegitimate son?" Deng Jingguo murmured to himself.
Lu Jingzhi nodded, his tone vicissitudes: "When Mr. Huo returned to the Spirit Realm, your father was still a small figure. The Brotherhood split, and he didn't dare to reveal his identity. He took me out to fight alone. As our level got higher and higher, we established the Anti-Black and White Alliance. The reason we chose this name was, on the one hand, to inherit Mr. Huo's legacy, and on the other hand, who hasn't been exploited by those guys in the Free State?"
"Before his death, the Pope gave something to Mr. Huo. Maybe it was because Mr. Huo was of Chinese descent. At that time, he was still wearing a Qing Dynasty braid, which made him look out of place in Europe. No one thought that the Pope would hand over a precious relic to a yellow man with braids."
"So, Mr. Huo left Europe with the Pope's relic and came to New Testament County to establish the Brotherhood. In his later years, Jingguo's father passed the relic to his illegitimate son, Jingguo's father."
"This is because the identity of an illegitimate child is more concealed. For the same reason, my brother also passed on the Pope's relics to Li Zi Jia Feizhang."
If Mr. Huo cannot obtain it for some reason, then he should pass it on to a powerful descendant, so that his descendants can complete it. At worst, trading it for the Heavenly Punishment is better than giving it to an illegitimate child."
Deng Jingguo snorted coldly: "Although my father is an illegitimate child, he is also a spiritual realm walker, a spiritual realm walker stronger than us."
Bookish Tao Siming smiled bitterly: "Then I don't understand your father's actions. Why did he give it to Jia Feizhang and not to you? Does Uncle Deng think that Jia Feizhang can also become a spiritual realm walker?"
"None of this matters anymore." Lu Jing said in a deep voice, "The Pope's relics cannot fall into the hands of others. Since Jia Feizhang is dead, Jingguo will keep them. We must take back the Pope's relics."
Deng Jingguo frowned and said, "Uncle Jing, we don't even know who the enemy is. How can we take it back? We may not have the strength to take it back."
The silver-haired Lu Jing acted particularly strong and said immediately: "Then report it to Tianfa and let Tianfa take it back. This way, at least we can get a reward from Tianfa."
Deng Jingguoqi and Tao Siming looked at each other and neither objected.
"Then it's decided." Lu Jing took out his cell phone and planned to contact the senior management of Tianfa's New Covenant County branch. "I have had several contacts with Winnie Bertram. She is an upright thunder mage and is not kind to people."
At this moment, Tao Siming's cell phone dinged. He took out his cell phone and looked at it. Suddenly his face changed slightly: "Wait!"
Lu Jing and Deng Jingguo looked over in the direction of the sound.
Tao Siming had a strange expression on his face. He held his phone upright and pointed it at the two of them. "We have completed the mission posted in the Hunter Guild!"
The next day, eight o'clock in the morning.
Zhang Yuanqing got up, washed, and came to the living room. He saw that Annie had already prepared breakfast and considerately tore the fried dough sticks into pieces and soaked them in salty soy milk.
Her own breakfast is fried eggs, toast, bacon and sweetened soy milk.
“Why do you drink sweet soy milk?”
"I'm not used to salty soy milk."
"Promise me that you won't just drink soy milk from now on."
After breakfast, Zhang Yuanqing put his cell phone in his pocket, turned the doorknob and walked out of the house, just in time to see Cao Qianxiu walking out holding her brother's hand.
There were still traces of tears on Cao Chao's face, and he was holding a popsicle in his hand. It was unclear whether he was beaten by his mother or his sister.
The two sides were about to face each other. Cao Qianxiu suddenly stopped, her eyes slightly bright, but she was too restrained to speak, and stood stiffly in place.
Zhang Yuanqing took the initiative to step forward and touched Cao Chao's head, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"
"Go back now and yell at your mother to call me handsome!" Zhang Yuanqing said, "and she will let you eat two popsicles."
"Really?" The little boy opened his innocent eyes wide.
"That's how I yelled at my mom when I was a kid. You can do it!" Zhang Yuanqing gave courage and encouragement.
Cao Chao thought about it, and out of his desire for the popsicle and his trust in the neighbor's brother, he opened the security door with high morale and rushed into the living room to confront the landlord's wife.
Zhang Yuanqing then looked at the girl next door and took the initiative to say, "Sorry, I concealed my true level."
Cao Qianxiu forced a laugh: "We didn't have enough trust at the time. Who would tell a stranger their true level?"
Cao Qianxiu hesitated for a moment and tentatively asked: "Then, about joining the anti-black and white alliance"!
"I think it's very interesting. Before I returned to China, I was a member of Group 6 of the Anti-Black and White Alliance. Remember to contact me if you have any problems. Don't delay your salary." Zhang Yuanqing gave an affirmative answer.
Cao Qianxiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, if the group members usually get together."
"If I have time, I will participate." Zhang Yuanqing nodded.
There was a smile on the girl's face.
At this time, screams like a pig being slaughtered came from the house. Cao Chao ran out crying, tears streaming down his face. He looked at Zhang Yuanqing heartbrokenly and made accusations with his crying voice.
The popsicle in my hand was gone.
Cao Chao cried even louder.
"Okay, okay, go to room 403 and knock on the door. Aunt Annie will compensate you with a bag of snacks."
Cao Chao stopped crying immediately: "Really?"
"When have I ever lied to you?" Zhang Yuanqing asked back.
"Yeah!" Cao Chao skipped to knock on the door.
Looking at her brother's silly look, Cao Qianxiu had a complicated expression: "Sometimes I doubt, are you really a scout? I remember that scouts are soldiers, serious and formal."
"That's because you don't understand the Second District. There are outliers in any group. Being serious and formal is the temperament of the group, not the individual temperament. There are always some who are not serious enough or formal enough." Zhang Yuanqing washed her hair: "I only know a fire master who is wiser than a bachelor. I also know a bachelor who is more boastful than a fire master, and there is also a powerful scout who likes to listen to others flattering him and likes to see others bowing down."
Cao Qianxiu listened carefully.
At 9:30 in the evening, Zhang Yuanqing, dressed in plain clothes and disguised as the bald middle-aged Jia Feizhang, walked into the Legg Mason Bank building.
"Please wait a moment!" The female receptionist lowered her head to operate the computer. After a moment, she looked up and said, "Will George has been away for many years."
Zhang Yuanqing said, "I'll open the safe, the number is 1145."
A transparent vortex appeared in Zhang Yuanqing's eyes. "You have seen my valid ID."
The female receptionist was in a trance for a moment, then smiled and said, "Please, please follow me!"
She led Zhang Yuanqing into the bank and knocked on the manager's door: "Manager, this gentleman is here to open the safe."
