Starting from Hong Kong in 1988!
Chapter 18 Classic of Mountains and Seas
After saying goodbye to Jiang Lanxin, Xu Guangkun returned to his residence immediately.
He didn't have to wait long before the light screen reappeared before his eyes.
Part 1: Make a name for yourself in Hong Kong (Progress: 100%)
Second: Obtained 200 jin of gold. (Progress: 0%)
Third: Obtain the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, Central Mountains Classic"
(The more tasks you complete, the greater the rewards)
(Duration of stay: 97 days, time remaining until return: 3 days)
"Three days..."
Xu Guangkun's gaze focused on the word "three days." He touched the wound on his stomach and finally decided to make that place his last stop in Hong Kong.
A draw in the election!
According to Jiang Lanxin's deduction, He Sheng should be locked in a fierce battle for the next few days until a final winner is determined and ascends the throne on that day.
What Xu Guangkun needs to do is to recover well and purge all the remaining senior executives of Hesheng on that day!
After finishing his plan, Xu Guangkun finally had time to look at the other things on the panel.
Xu Guangkun's gaze lingered on the task list for a moment before he shook his head.
Task 1 was completed by accident, but the other two tasks clearly did not meet the requirements for completion.
That year, one gram of gold in Hong Kong cost HK$110, so 200 jin (100 catties) would be worth nearly HK$11 million.
With only three days left and so much money, Xu Guangkun couldn't think of any other way besides robbing a bank.
As for the Classic of Mountains and Seas, that's utter nonsense. When Xu Guangkun first came to this world, he thought it was the easiest task to complete, but no matter how many bookstores he visited or how many copies of the Classic of Mountains and Seas he flipped through, he was completely disappointed.
The light screen did not respond.
Where could he, from all corners of the country, find the Classic of Mountains and Seas that the light screen needed?
"Mommy!"
A shrill child's voice suddenly rang out.
Xu Guangkun looked over.
Several thugs stormed into the woman's house next door, roughly shoving her to the ground. The neighbor shouted, "My third brother died in your dead father's shop! You'll be working as a prostitute today and pay back the money!"
The woman's face was pale; she clearly realized something, but still couldn't quite believe it. "Where's my dad?"
"He's dead."
"How did he die?"
"What's it to me?" the leader said, grabbing the woman's hair and dragging her outside.
The woman's face was ashen; she offered no resistance and allowed the man to drag her along.
"Let go of my mommy!"
The little girl rushed forward to grab the leader's hand, but was roughly pushed away and fell to the ground.
Tears welled in the girl's eyes from the pain, but she still stood up and lunged at the man relentlessly. The woman, seeing this, snapped out of her grief and began to struggle.
But it was all in vain.
"You dare bite me!"
The man first slapped the struggling woman, causing blood to gush from the corner of her mouth, then raised his hand to slap the little girl who was biting him.
"Feed".
A voice suddenly rang out.
Before the man could react, he was kicked to the ground, his teeth hitting the hard floor with a crisp sound.
"It's not right for a group of grown men to bully an orphan and a widow."
Xu Guangkun pulled the two children behind him and looked at the crowd around him with a relaxed smile as they drew their weapons.
"Don't move!"
Xu Guangkun raised an eyebrow; the one who spoke was actually the person who had fallen to the ground.
He covered his blood-stained mouth as he got up, glaring at Xu Guangkun with venomous hatred. "You dare hit me? Do you even know who I am? Do you believe I'll rip your heart, liver, lungs, and spleen out?"
Hearing those familiar words, Xu Guangkun almost burst out laughing. "Then do you even know who I am?"
The man was taken aback, a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He squinted at Xu Guangkun for a moment, then asked, "Who are you?"
Xu Guangkun uttered three words calmly, "Your father!"
"Ha, you've got guts!" The man laughed in anger. He had been out in the underworld for so long, and there were few people in this stronghold who weren't afraid of him. He was always the one making fun of others, and this was the first time someone had ever made fun of him like this!
This is utterly upside down!
He pulled out a folding knife and slapped it into his palm. "Hey, if you have the guts, kill me. If you don't..."
He started to speak, his eyes wide with rage: "I'll kill your whole family!"
After saying that, he was about to throw the knife at Xu Guangkun's feet.
One of his men quickly stopped him.
"What are you doing?"
"Boss." The underling pointed to Xu Guangkun's face, "I recognize him. It's Xu Guangkun!"
"Xu Guangkun?" The man pondered the name for a moment, and immediately thought of this rising star.
This person clearly had the guts to kill him.
As he considered his options, realizing he couldn't vent his anger by toying with this man, he shouted, "All of you, attack! Kill him!"
After saying that, he was about to charge forward and teach Xu Guangkun a lesson, but his underlings stopped him again.
"What are you going to do now? So what if he's famous? He's Ip Man, he could take on ten men!"
"Boss." The underling pointed at Xu Guangkun's arm in a panic.
Upon closer inspection, the man noticed a dark, eye-catching object in Xu Guangkun's drooping hand.
The man took a breath, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his expression was gentle and kind. "Brother Kun."
He sheathed his knife, nodded to Xu Guangkun, and said, "I've long admired your name. Actually, I didn't want to do this either, but it's only right to pay back debts, don't you think?"
......
"I'll pay her debts for her, but I don't have them right now. I'll give them to you within three days." Xu Guangkun tapped his forehead with the gun. "Any problems?"
"No problem, it's your decision," the man said, then added, "Shall we go first?"
"Aren't you going to apologize to the mother and daughter?"
The man smiled apologetically and nodded, then squatted down: "Little sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to push you."
The little girl hugged Xu Guangkun's leg, burying her head and not daring to look at him.
"Tingting, you're practically one of my regular customers. I've never charged you a high price over the years, and I've always given you things on credit." The man smiled at the woman. "You know I have a bad temper, so you won't mind the little misunderstanding that happened today, will you?"
As he spoke, he took out a small bag of flour from his pocket and handed it to the woman, "Here, consider this my compensation to you."
The woman stared at the flour in a daze, unconsciously swallowing.
Xu Guangkun frowned in disgust.
"Get lost."
The man nodded, put the flour on the ground, and led his men out of Xu Guangkun's path.
.....
"Are you alright?"
Xu Guangkun ruffled the little girl's fluffy hair and reached out his hand to the woman who was still sitting on the ground.
"It's nothing." The woman looked away from the flour and stood up with Xu Guangkun's help.
"You should give up this stuff." Xu Guangkun picked up the little girl and placed her in the woman's arms. "Put an ice pack on her face, and she'll be fine the next day."
"I'm already quitting." The woman bit her lip and nodded, then said, "Xu...Kun-ge, why are you so good to me?"
Xu Guangkun didn't know how to explain it either.
You can't just say I killed your parents.
He glanced around somewhat uncomfortably, "I can't stand it..."
He froze halfway through his sentence, unable to utter another word.
He saw something.
Something I never expected to appear in this place.
Classic of Mountains and Seas!
Xu Guangkun didn't have good eyesight to see the name on the book cover from that distance; he could only make out a few bright, glittering characters flashing in the air.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of Central Mountains, and the Ninth Classic of Central Mountains.
