Martial Arts Across the Heavens: Becoming a Martial God Starting from the Big Boss in Tangshan

Chapter 153 They're all rebels, but why is there such a huge difference between them?

Huang Feihong glanced at Chen Wen and said frankly, "Oh, this is a gift from Brother Chen."

Sun Wen immediately looked at Chen Wen, his face filled with surprise and longing.

As a revolutionary who was constantly on the move and extremely sensitive to time, he knew all too well what such a precise and reliable timer that could be carried with him meant!

Chen Wen smiled slightly, reached into his pocket, and when he took it out again, there was a watch in his palm.

Without saying a word, he put the watch on the other person's wrist.

"Mr. Sun, this is called a watch," he said. "It's more accurate than a pocket watch and less prone to damage from bumps and knocks. It's yours."

Sun Wen felt a chill on his wrist as the exquisite mechanical device was fastened to his wrist.

He was taken aback at first, then hurriedly tried to take it off: "This—this is too valuable! Mr. Chen, such an exquisite item must be worth a fortune. I, Sun, have not done anything to deserve this, and I absolutely cannot accept it!"

Chen Wen pressed down on his hand, his tone brooking no refusal: "Take it. I have plenty of good things here, but they're for other people, not for you. This watch is nothing, keep it for yourself."

He paused, looking at Sun Wen meaningfully: "With it, you can know the time more accurately, and know what to do at what time."

Then he took out another watch and handed it to Sun Yat-sen: "Please have Mr. Sun pass this on to that Mr. Lu."

Sun Yat-sen was deeply shaken!

Mr. Lu? The other party knows Lu Haodong!

But then I thought about it again, and it's not surprising that the other party knew my identity and knew Lu Haodong.

However, the feeling of being completely seen through still made him uneasy.

He felt the two watches in his hands burning hot, feeling both unworthy of them and knowing that they would be of great help to him and his comrades.

"Mr. Chen's generosity is truly beyond words; I, Sun, do not know how to express my gratitude."

Sun Wen hesitated for a moment, then took off his old pocket watch and handed it to Chen Wen with both hands.

"I have nothing of value except this pocket watch that has been with me for many years. It is not worth much, but it is a token of my appreciation. Please accept it, Mr. Chen, as a keepsake."

Chen Wen's eyes lit up, and he quickly took the pocket watch to examine it carefully: "A good thing! This should be considered a sacred relic!"

"What?" Sun Wen didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing." Chen Wen smiled awkwardly, quickly putting away his pocket watch, then suddenly lowered his voice: "By the way, Mr. Sun, isn't the person with the white paper fan holding the brush in your establishment a craftsman surnamed Luo?"

Sun Yat-sen was taken aback again, and subconsciously shook his head: "His surname isn't Luo; he's a foreigner, and his surname is Roosevelt. Why do you ask that, Mr. Chen?"

Chen Wen didn't dwell on the form of address and continued, "Mr. Sun, remember this, this man is not simple. Find a way, preferably one to find something to hold against him and control him!"

Sun Yat-sen's expression turned strange, even somewhat angry: "Mr. Chen, those are all brothers who share our ideals and are loyal to us! How could I, Sun Yat-sen, do something like blackmailing my own brothers?"

Chen Wen shook his head and continued, "I'm not talking to you about personal friendship right now. It's okay if you don't understand what I'm saying, but you have to do it!"

"This is not for personal gain; it's a great thing that benefits the country and its people!"

Sun Wen was somewhat bewildered by Chen Wen's sudden sternness and almost commanding tone, feeling a little displeased and hesitant.

Is this really that important?

No way! He and Chen Wencai had only known each other for a short time. How could he doubt his own people just because of a few random words from the other party?

Sun Yat-sen forced a smile and mumbled, "Mr. Chen's words—I have noted them down. Let's discuss this matter later."

"However, there are some things I'd like to discuss—"

Sun Yat-sen wanted to ask more questions, such as why Chen Wen knew so much about them and what the Blood Flag Army's future plans were.

Just then.

Suddenly, a commotion arose on the street outside the venue, along with shouts from yamen runners and the sound of gongs as they drove away the crowd!

"The government officials have arrived!"

"Guards! Lots of guards and soldiers!"

"Scatter! Scatter!"

Sun Wen's expression changed drastically, and he instantly put aside his doubts.

He hurriedly bowed to Chen Wen and Huang Feihong, speaking rapidly, "Gentlemen! The constables have arrived! Our identities—this place is no place to linger! Let's go!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Wen laughed and said, "Mr. Sun, you can leave on your own."

Sun Wen was even more anxious. He was about to persuade her again when he suddenly stopped, a look of realization flashing across his face.

That's not right!

Even he himself had only just learned that Chen Wen and Huang Feihong were the leaders of the Blood Flag Army.

How could the government possibly know?

Unlike himself, who was already on the blacklist and wanted by the authorities.

These two people in front of us are well-known and even court-appointed good citizens in the eyes of the government!

Chen Wen, in particular, is now very famous.

Without solid evidence, the authorities dared not easily take action against him.

Everyone was rebelling, but what others did was even more sensational than what we did: killing foreigners, beheading the admiral, and massacring the city of mites.

As a result, they live a safer and more glamorous life than they ever did!

This comparison left Sun Wen momentarily speechless, a complex mix of envy welling up within him.

Without further hesitation, he quickly pulled a slip of paper from his pocket and handed it to Chen Wen, saying in a low voice, "This is where I'm staying temporarily. If there's an opportunity, I'll have a more in-depth discussion with you both!"

After saying that, without waiting for Chen Wen's response, he picked up his small medicine box and left quickly.

Chen Wen glanced at the address on the note and casually put it away.

Before long, the noise outside drew closer, and a large number of yamen runners and soldiers rushed into the chaotic meeting place led by a figure.

"Quick! Save them! Secure the scene!"

The leader shouted loudly, "It is none other than Nalan Yuanshu, the Nine Gates Admiral!"

The constables and soldiers he brought quickly dispersed, seemingly to help treat the wounded, but they carefully examined each person's face as if searching for something.

Chen Wen took the initiative to greet him: "Admiral! You've finally arrived!"

Upon seeing Chen Wen and Huang Feihong, Nalan Yuanshu quickly stepped forward, his face showing concern: "Brother Chen! Master Huang! Are you two alright?"

"Upon receiving news of the White Lotus Sect's attack on the Medical Conference, I immediately led my men here!"

"I never imagined these freaks would be so audacious, daring to disrupt an academic gathering within the concession! Thankfully, both of you are unharmed!"

Wong Fei-hung also bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Excellency, Admiral."

Following his words, Chen Wen glanced at the constables who were looking around, and said with a slightly embarrassed smile, "No wonder!"

"I saw that the yamen runners seemed to be looking for someone, and it turned out they were looking for me and Brother Huang."

"

"Now that the master has found us, you brothers can rest."

Nalan Yuanshu's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

Who came looking for you? He clearly came to arrest Sun Yat-sen, that wanted criminal!

"Brother Chen is too kind. It's good that you two are safe and sound."

"By the way, Brother Chen, have you seen a man named Sun Yat-sen here? He's probably in his early thirties, a Western-trained doctor, and also a Chinese."

Huang Feihong's heart tightened, and he was about to speak up to help cover for him.

Chen Wen nodded vigorously, his tone very certain: "Sun Yat-sen? I've met him!"
