258 Punishment (Part 1)

Jiang Zhihan sat in Lin Zhixian's office, holding a book in his hand. He turned a page and his eyes were projected on it, but it was empty and his mind was wandering around.

The main result of the fight that night was Liu Hongjian's three teeth were knocked down, a rib that broke one of his followers, and another guy's wrist. But Liu Hongjian was not a gangster bully who bullied the neighbors in the yard, and the aftermath still took Lin Zhixian a lot of thought.

The first ones who arrived were Xiao Wei, who is now promoted to the police station director, and Director Lin's loyal confidant. Later, Captain Zhang's people also came. The people present had their own opinions. Liu Hongjian's people said that they were suddenly attacked and injured. The testimony given by the two women present was that the other party forced to break into the closed billiard room. Their lives were threatened. In order to protect himself and them, Jiang Zhihan was forced to defend himself. Jiang Zhihan didn't know that there was a scar on Qu Yingmei's hand that was hit by a billiard club, which was beaten by Wenwen in the hut behind.

A director of the Power Supply Branch is not in the eyes of Director Lin, but he has always adhered to a cautious style, unwilling to expand things, nor does he want to take a tough route.

Many of the networks that Jiang Zhihan slowly weave were his own relationships. But these relationships he had basically introduced to Senior Brother Lin in government departments. From a certain perspective, Lin Zhixian was helping him manage it, just as Jiang Zhihan helped Lin Zhixian manage his investments. The information resources that Lin Zhixian had in his hands were beyond his reach. Soon, he found Director Liu's immediate boss, Director Fang of the Municipal Bureau through Deputy Mayor Cui, and found Mo Weimin, the secretary of the city district party committee. Through Director Fang and Mo Weimin, Lin Zhixian gave a very polite but firm signal: if he wanted to expand the situation, he would only suffer.

Lin Zhixian put down the phone. As expected, the other party accepted the private medical compensation of 3ooo yuan, and the matter ended here. The characterization of this matter was at most a fight, but the key was that Jiang Zhihan was not injured at all, and the other party was seriously injured. Moreover, Lin Zhixian knew in his heart who was the first to take action. He was not going to tell Jiang Zhihan about the compensation of 3ooo yuan, because he was afraid that he was young and energetic, so he did not accept this condition.

Although Director Liu's family was not short of money, he rationally decided to endure this time and taught his son a lesson by the way. His wife cried several times, but he refused with a cold face.

***************************************************************************

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Jiang Zhihan raised his head and saw Senior Brother Lin walking in, his face not so good.

He put it down: "What?...what is there any problem?"

Lin Zhixian sat on the office chair and said in a deep voice: "I have already done the Liu Hongjian family. The matter has ended here." He paused and added: "But... your big trouble is behind. The day before yesterday, the old man returned to Zhongzhou. He was going to see you as soon as he arrived home, but he knew about this."

Jiang Zhihan said ah, thinking that the master might blame him for being too aggressive, but it shouldn't be a big deal. He asked, "Master is back, why don't I know it all the time?"

Lin Zhixian said seriously: "You... As far as I know, the old man found Captain Zhang's people and the two little girls to talk to. I told them to tell the truth 100% in front of the old man and not to tell the tricks he made up. In addition... I heard that the old man had gone to your mother."

Jiang Zhihan said again.

Lin Zhixian said: "Old man seems to be in a bad mood this time. Please reflect on yourself. If you do something that is not in line with his rules, I will sincerely admit it. Because you are his favorite little apprentice, you may be punished lighter."

Jiang Zhihan scratched his head. The old man used to repeatedly warn him not to use the little skill he learned, but he always asked himself that he had been gangsters and bullies, and he was worthy of his conscience. Even if he was a little impulsive, it should not be a matter of principle.

Lin Zhixian warned: "Zhi Han... You are still young and sometimes you are too impulsive. You have to correct this problem. I will try my best to say a few good things for you, but... don't take it lightly."

Jiang Zhihan nodded, but felt a little dissatisfied.

*********************************************************************************

Jiang Zhihan pushed open the door and saw the old man wearing a blue training suit and sitting in the yard with a big golden sword. The longing in his heart burst out with joy.

Last summer, Mr. Yang went to Chuncheng to deal with the problems left by the sect. In a flash, the two had never had any other connections except through more than a dozen letters. In Jiang Zhihan's heart, the old man was like his grandfather, not only wise and knowledgeable, but also amiable. When he recalled, he had just left, he had a Waterloo on a thunderstorm night. When he saw him again, he felt aggrieved for some reason. He suddenly seemed to have become smaller. Finally, an elder could talk about his thoughts.

Jiang Zhihan rushed into the yard with some excitement and shouted with a smile, "Master... you are finally back." He grabbed one of the old man's hand and smiled, "But now is the hottest day in Zhongzhou and the temperature in Chuncheng is the most suitable. It's really a coincidence that you came back!"

Mr. Yang looked him up and down, with a smile in his eyes. After a year of not seeing him, Jiang Zhihan's tenderness has become much less tender. Due to his large amount of exercise and martial arts, he is tall and strong. In his every move, the boy became more and more calm and composed as he was not of his age, but when he saw his master, he showed more of the pure happiness of the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Jiang Zhihan nodded to the second senior brother Guan Shanhe who was standing behind the old man, and said to the old man: "Master, the matter has been resolved, right? When I come back this time, I don't have to go back to Chuncheng again?"

Mr. Yang said: "The things in Chuncheng are going smoothly. Alas... the grudges of several generations have finally been left behind. However, I have some promises to them. Although the conflict is resolved, I still need to go back and fulfill what I have not done. I can stay in Zhongzhou for less than a month."

Before Jiang Zhihan could speak, Mr. Yang said again: "I am here to see you and Shanhe. Unexpectedly, there is a big thing waiting for me to deal with." But the smile on his face dissipated.

Jiang Zhihan couldn't help but look at the old man's face, and then looked up at the second senior brother standing behind him. Over the past year, Jiang Zhihan has spent a lot of effort to finally bring the second senior brother's wife and children to Zhongzhou and settle them down. Although Guan Shanhe has never said anything, he is quite close to Jiang Zhihan in his heart.

Guan Shanhe looked at Jiang Zhihan, and was forced to give him any winks due to his master's power. But he pursed his lips, his face was extremely serious, and he looked a little worried. When Jiang Zhihan saw this, his heart skipped a beat. Thinking of Senior Brother Lin's warning, his heart suddenly became hung.

Master is preparing to provoke a great cause? I...but did nothing wrong?

Mr. Yang pointed to the front and said, "Stop it." His tone was gentle, but there was no doubt.

Jiang Zhihan pouted and took a few steps back. He stood obediently at the five steps in front of the master. His eyes were observed, his nose was observed, his hands were drooping, his feet were slightly apart, and his face became serious.

Mr. Yang said: "It has been two years since I started teaching you some skills to get started. If you start from the official entry, it has been one year." He stopped and looked at Jiang Zhihan quietly.

Jiang Zhihan opened his eyes wide and looked innocent.

Mr. Yang picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, put it down, and after a moment, he said, "Since you started to learn kung fu from me, except for the time we were together to seek revenge on you, tell me how many times have you fought with someone?"

Jiang Zhihan looked at the ground, as if searching for a memory bank. After a while, he looked up and said, "Before the Spring Festival last year, it was on New Year's Eve, a few people set fire at my mother's bookstore. I fought with them... Well, one time, my mother accidentally hit a flowerpot in the open space downstairs and did not hurt anyone, but a rogue in the dormitory wanted to blackmail her and pulled her. I fought with their family. And... Another time, I met two people teasing a woman in a dirty language on Longzhong Street, and they fought with them. The last time was the day before yesterday. Five people came in to threaten her and said they wanted that. I couldn't help but teach them a lesson."

Mr. Yang lowered his eyes, "No?"

Jiang Zhihan thought about it carefully and added: "There is another time when I was attending the physics Olympic training at Zhongzhou Normal University, a group of people teased my classmates, and I fought with them." He bit his lip, "There is a person inside who practiced Kung Fu. It's very awesome. By the way, there are the two wanted criminals I met when I was with Senior Brother Lin last time."

Jiang Zhihan looked up at the master. He was savoring the tea with his head down, looking calm and composed.

Seeing that his master did not accept his words, Jiang Zhihan added another sentence, "Master... is all... forced to take action."

Mr. Yang asked calmly: "What are our rules?"

Jiang Zhihan stood up with his hands and recited: "First, do not disobey the teacher; second, do not bully the weak; third, do not commit crimes." He thought to himself, I did not commit any crime.

Mr. Yang said: "Let's talk about the incident in the yard of your unit building. If you think about it carefully, you really didn't make any mistakes?"

Jiang Zhihan thought for a while and shook his head.

Mr. Yang laughed twice, "I heard that after you knocked down those people, just because the old lady scolded her, you kicked off a few more teeth from her son who had no ability to fight back? It seemed that there was a slight concussion?"

Jiang Zhihan was shocked. Who told the old man that there were so clear details?

He lowered his head, pouted, and said, "She...she scolded so badly, as if I was the perpetrator. Their family usually bullies the neighbors, and there are many public grievances."

Mr. Yang said: "Let's talk about this two days ago... Who did it first?"

Jiang Zhihan said: "It's me. But he first spoke filthy to my friends and threatened her very obscenely! Moreover, there are five of them, and if they don't take action first..."

Mr. Yang said quietly: "So, you think every time you take action, there is a good reason, right?"

Jiang Zhihan glanced at Guan Shanhe who was standing behind his master.

Mr. Yang lowered his face, "Don't look at your senior brother, answer me well."

Jiang Zhihan stubbornly stubbornly said, "Yes."

Mr. Yang said, "Two years ago, I started to teach you some skills. What is it? Do you know?" Before Jiang Zhihan could speak, he asked and answered, "I see that you have courage and courage. But because of helping others, I put myself in danger and have no self-defense skills. Therefore, I teach you some skills in a small way, hoping that you can continue to maintain the courage to help others and have the ability to defend yourself."

Mr. Yang looked at Jiang Zhihan and saw that he didn't say anything, he then said: "According to my previous observations, I thought you were a personality that knew how to advance and retreat, knew how to measure, endured hardship, and could endure hardship. After practicing kung fu, I used self-defense, not to fight for force. Through the past two years of observation, I have more or less misunderstood than suffering."

Jiang Zhihan looked at his master in dissatisfaction and did not answer.

Mr. Yang said: "Don't be dissatisfied. Over the past two years, your unruly and brave and fierce temperament has become more and more revealed. If you just defend yourself and your opponent falls to the ground, you shouldn't continue to hit him. If you just stop the situation from getting worse, you won't end the battle. You have to slap him seven or eight times and knock out three or four teeth."

Mr. Yang said, "You probably think I'm too strict with you. But after I met your mother yesterday, I regretted teaching you about Kung Fu."

Jiang Zhihan frowned, not knowing what this meant.

Mr. Yang said: "Your parents love you very much. I will teach you some self-defense skills, but it may harm you. I really can't explain to your parents." After a pause, he said: "Although you only learned some basic skills to get started, you have a good foundation. Now you fight with ordinary people, it tastes like an adult and a child. Because of this, I think you can't control your own actions. Although I told you that you are still far behind those who are really proficient in skills, there are very few such people after all, and you will not believe it before you meet them. If you meet them, with your current personality..."

Jiang Zhihan said: "Master..."

Mr. Yang waved his hand to stop him and said, "If... if... if I hadn't taught you, when I met you, Brother Lin at a food stall, he would hint you to leave, you would leave obediently. If you haven't learned some kung fu, whether it's a scoundrel in the dormitory or a person who came to the billiards room to provoke, you might seem to suffer a little, but you actually have other solutions. Now, don't you have many acquaintances in the police station's public security bureau? ... Looking back, I'm a little scared. If the Second King's bullet hits you, if you kicked someone to death that day, if you hit the son of the power supply director the day before yesterday, but the son of the head of a city and a province, have you ever thought about it, what would it be?"

Jiang Zhihan said: "No, I... have a proper sense."

Mr. Yang nodded, "Is that true? I don't think so... I repeatedly warn you that taking action should always be the last choice, either to protect those who need protection, or to protect yourself from harm. Have you done this?"

Jiang Zhihan thought for a while and defended: "I...I took action to protect my friends and my family, and those people are scumbags!"

Mr. Yang looked back at the second apprentice, turned around, sighed, and said, "If you want to be clever and eloquent, I am not as good as you. However, I have repeatedly thought about it these two days and taught you a little bit of effort. Sometimes it may make you more happy, but in the end it may really hurt you. I don't want to wait until the big mistake is done before I regret it. So..."

Jiang Zhihan widened his eyes. Could it be that because of this, the master wanted to drive me out?!

Mr. Yang said in a deep voice: "So, I decided to take back your kung fu."
