"Alright, can you tell me about your grandfather?”Jiang Xingjie said.
Ling Zhizhi nodded and replied,"I heard from my uncle that my grandfather is a very famous Taoist priest. In their town, whether it's the local gentry or the peddlers, they would give my grandfather face and call him Ninth Uncle."”
"I heard that my grandfather has killed countless demons in his life, captured ghosts, and fought zombies…"
At this point, Ling Zhizhi paused and stuck out her tongue playfully at Jiang Xingjie."That's all I know. These things were told to me by my uncle when I was young.”
"Who is your uncle?" Jiang Xingjie asked.
"Don't you remember? When we were young, my uncle bought us candy. Oh right, we even played with his daughter when we were young. However…after Eldest Uncle died, Fourth Uncle took Sister Ah Lian to Dongping State. Other than coming back for the New Year and festivals, they didn't have much interaction.”
Jiang Xingjie was speechless.
East Ping State, Ah Lian.
Uncle Feng was Ling Zhizhi's fourth uncle.
Uncle Ying and Uncle Feng were both Ninth Uncle's sons.
Jiang Xingjie felt that most of the modern urban supernatural movies that were directed by lam Ching-Ying would probably be directed at Uncle Ying's family.
Jiang Xingjie continued to ask, and soon, he had a good understanding of Ling Zhizhi's family situation.
According to Ling Zhizhi, Ninth Uncle had a total of four sons: Lin Shaoying, Lin Jiuying, Lin Zhengying, and Lin Qiying (Uncle Feng). Uncle Ying and Uncle Feng were twins, and they were born in 1937. Not long after they were born, the little ghosts started a war.
When Ninth Uncle heard the news, he resolutely decided to go north. The world was in chaos, and there would definitely be demons and devils that would bring disaster to the people. Ninth Uncle decided to do his part and never came back.
However, before Ninth Uncle left, he left a sentence. The four heroes of the Lin family could not all learn mantras. Otherwise, they would suffer losses and the Lin family would be in trouble. His elder brothers Shaoying and Jiuying had already started learning the Dao, so he could only choose one of Zhengying and Qiying to teach the other and not let them learn the Dao.
When the brothers were six years old, they drew lots to decide their fate. In the end, Zheng Ying, who was Ling Zhizhi's father, did not get the lottery and could only give up on Taoism and switch to medicine.
Even so, Zheng Ying was still very passionate about mantras and supernatural things. Even now, when he encountered something supernatural, Uncle Ying, who did not possess any magical power, would still rush forward.
Of course, this was a story for the future.
After the war ended, the four brothers had grown up. It was not easy for them to unite, but the wind blew in the country again.
The four brothers of the Lin family were all determined to be disciples of the Dao. To avoid disaster, the four brothers had to leave their homeland and head to Hong Kong. After that, the four of them settled down in Hong Kong.
Shaoying took Qiying to be a police officer. Jiuying, like Jiang Xingjie, made a living by helping people solve problems. However, apart from solving problems, Jiuying had other businesses, which were not mentioned for the time being.
As for Zheng Ying, he saved some money and opened Lin's Medical Center.
However, after so many years, the Lin Family's Four Heroes had also encountered some twists and turns. The most infuriating one was the death of their eldest brother, Shaoying, who had been wrongly accused. It was also after this incident that Qiying, who had solved the case extremely quickly and was known as the rising star of the police force, had offended the ghost and was sent to Dongping State. It was also around that time that Lin Qiying changed his name to Lin Feng…
After hearing about Ling Zhizhi's father, Jiang Xingjie couldn't help but sigh. At the same time, Lin Qiying changing his name to Lin Feng gave Jiang Xingjie some inspiration and solved a problem he had.
He was clearly Jiang Xingjie, so why was Jiang Tianji's plot placed on him?
Now that he thought about it, if Jiang Xingjie changed his name to Jiang Tianji, it would be more convincing when others asked him to help them.
Think about it, if you were to ask someone to exorcise you, would you ask someone called Jiang Xingjie or Jiang Tianji? It was obvious that Jiang Tianji was more reliable than Jiang Xingjie.
"By the way, what happened to your uncle?”Jiang Xingjie asked.
"Back then, my uncle died in a prostitute's house. Later on, the media exaggerated this matter and fabricated a lot of dirt about my uncle. Not to mention that my uncle was already dead at that time, even if he wasn't dead, my uncle wouldn't have been able to explain it clearly.”
" After that, the incident escalated and almost half of Hong Kong knew about it. In order to quell the incident, the higher-ups of the police decided to clarify the nature of my uncle's case and stood on the side of the media. They said that it was their fault for having such a scum in the police force. They would investigate thoroughly and not let such a scum appear again..."
" After the police 'sincerely' apologized, the incident slowly died down. My uncle was also nailed to the shame of the Hong Kong police force. However, no one cared about what happened.”
"I heard from Fourth Uncle that the prostitute came from the mainland. Because of this, First Uncle took care of her. He didn't look down on her because she was a prostitute. Instead, he helped her a lot. After all, they came from the same place. As for his death at the prostitute's place, his eldest uncle was killed by someone else. Fourth Uncle had investigated.”
Ling Zhizhi was very excited. This incident had a huge impact on her back then. She wanted to become a reporter because of this incident. If it weren't for the reporter's false report, her uncle wouldn't have been labeled as such, and her uncle wouldn't have died with a bad reputation.
Even though Uncle Feng had found out the truth later, there was no possibility of overturning the case. No one cared what the truth was, and Gweilo would not admit his mistake.
Therefore, she wanted to be a reporter, a righteous reporter, a reporter who spoke for the people.
Jiang Xingjie hugged Ling Zhizhi, patted her shoulder, and comforted her softly.
After walking with Ling Zhizhi for a while, Jiang Xingjie brought her out to play to help her recover. In the afternoon, Jiang Xingjie sent Ling Zhizhi home, and he planned to make a trip to Meng Chao's police station.?
Speaking of which, Meng Chao's family background was quite interesting. His father was none other than Ninth Uncle's disciple, Wencai.?
Wen Cai had come to Hong Kong with his four brothers back then. After the four brothers introduced him, he, who had been single for his entire life, finally married a widow. When he was old, he had a son. He was already in his fifties or sixties, and he even gave birth to Meng Chao.?
To be honest, if Meng Chao did not look like Wen Cai, Jiang Xingjie would have suspected that Wen Cai was wearing a green hat.?
Arriving at the police station, Jiang Xingjie went straight to Ah Xin's office. After knocking on the door, Jiang Xingjie pushed it open and walked in. A Xin was surprised to see Jiang Xingjie and asked,"Why are you here?"
"Chief Ah Xin, I came to see you. By the way, when are you going to introduce me to your niece?”Jiang Xingjie laughed.
"Jason, I'm very busy right now. You know that a lot of things have happened in our district recently, so I don't have time.”
"However, it's not that I don't want to introduce you to someone. I've asked Ah Min for her opinion. She said that she wants to prioritize her studies. A forced melon is not sweet." Ah Xin was spouting nonsense.
When Jiang Xingjie heard this, he felt that he was an old Tai Chi master. His Tai Chi skills were superb.
He was certain that Ah Xin had never mentioned it to He Min, let alone asking for her opinion.
