Long Yan was in the weightlifting area of the gym, testing his strength.
Unfortunately, the barbells at the gym are too light.
For Long Yan, it was no challenge at all.
"Elder brother, what's wrong?"
Seeing the terrified Uncle Da, Long Yan had a rough idea of what had happened.
It's likely that Uncle Da has been targeted by a gay man.
"Someone's messing with me, we'd better run!"
Uncle Da grabbed Long Yan and tried to run away. He wasn't gay and couldn't accept gay men.
But the muscular man had already caught up and blocked Uncle Da's path.
And several of his brothers were surrounding him.
He looks like he's involved in organized crime!
In Hong Kong at the end of the 80s, there were still many triads.
In particular, nightclubs, dance halls, gyms and other entertainment venues are often backed by organized crime.
“You can’t escape. This is Hung Hing territory.”
The muscular man drooled as he looked at Uncle Da; he really liked that kind of food.
Upon hearing the name Hung Hing,
Long Yan was pleasantly surprised.
Unexpectedly, I ran into some gangsters from Hung Hing at the gym.
but,
This muscular man is probably just a henchman, not a leader in the Hung Hing triad.
"Brother, forced love is never sweet. I'm straight, not crooked."
Uncle Da became increasingly panicked and tried to persuade the other party to let him go.
If a woman had coerced him like that, Uncle Da would definitely have agreed.
But a muscular man would be terrifying.
"If you don't want to, then leave your junior brother here and make him my underling!"
The muscular man then set his sights on Long Yan, saying with some excitement:
"I heard you're the rumored boyfriend of actress Wang Xian'er. If I take you under my wing, it'll be a real status symbol. Maybe I'll even be on the front page of the newspaper tomorrow."
A unique angle!
Long Yan never expected that this gay, muscular man would actually want to take him as his underling!
"Sorry, I'm not interested in the underworld."
Long Yan shook his head. He would not join Hung Hing, much less become a gangster underling within Hung Hing.
"Little monk, this isn't something you can decide."
The burly man flexed his muscles and said:
"Let's have a weightlifting competition. If you can beat me, I'll let you leave!"
"If you lose, hehe... all your fellow disciples will become my underlings!"
The strong man wasn't stupid either.
He knew that Long Yan was a martial monk and therefore quite skilled in combat.
Therefore, the fitness program you are best at will give you a higher chance of success.
After all,
The burly man lifted a barbell weighing over 300 pounds. Although his muscles were trembling, his strength was indeed considerable.
After all, they've been trained through fighting and killing; people who work in the underworld generally have good physical fitness.
"Little monk, it's your turn."
The burly man put down the barbell and urged Long Yan to hurry up.
Long Yan couldn't even be bothered to lift a barbell weighing over 300 pounds.
He casually picked up two 500-pound barbells, one in each hand, as if they were toys, not heavy at all.
This scene,
It stunned everyone in the gym.
How can you lift such a heavy barbell as if it were child's play?
It seemed effortless for them.
"Little Master is so powerful!"
"Impossible, that's over a thousand pounds in total. Even Olympic spectators couldn't do that."
"I suspect there might be something wrong with the barbell; could it be a prop?"
Some people began to question it because Long Yan's performance was too relaxed; he didn't look like he was carrying a heavy object at all, and his muscles didn't bulge out.
Therefore, it's easy for people to mistake the barbell for a prop.
"This is impossible!"
Even the muscular man found it hard to believe, and insisted:
"There's definitely something wrong with this barbell, you cheated..."
Before the burly man could finish speaking, Long Yan threw the barbell into his arms.
The burly man stretched out his arms to catch it, but the immense weight made him lose his balance, causing him to kneel down and finally collapse to the ground.
The barbell was pressing down on him, and one person couldn't move it with their own strength.
That's over a thousand pounds!
"you!"
The burly man was speechless, staring at Long Yan in shock.
He lost convincingly, utterly defeated.
This monk's power is incredible!
“Little monk, I sincerely invite you to join Hung Hing. My big brother, Boss B, will definitely like you very much.”
The burly man extended the invitation again.
However, this time it wasn't in his own name, but in the name of his older brother, Big B.
Big Brother B was one of the leaders of Hung Hing, and held a relatively high position.
Long Yan smiled, surprised that this burly man was Big B's underling.
Among the gangsters of Hung Hing, Big B was indeed the most loyal and upright.
but,
With Long Yan's current strength, he really looks down on Hung Hing.
Not to mention a mere hall master.
"This humble monk will not become a gangster."
Long Yan declined the invitation again, adding a reminder:
"Tell your big brother B to stop as soon as possible and immigrate abroad with his wife and children, or he will surely suffer a bloody disaster."
Although he wasn't going to be a gangster, Long Yan still gave him a friendly reminder.
We also don't want a tragedy to happen, after all, Big B's wife and children are innocent.
After all,
Long Yan and Uncle Da left the gym together.
Several thugs tried to stop Long Yan, but dared not move.
Because Long Yan could easily lift a barbell weighing over 1,000 pounds, they felt the pressure of his strength.
Not to mention that Long Yan is a martial monk who has learned martial arts and is very intimidating.
"Junior brother, you're really amazing. You easily dealt with those gangsters."
Uncle Da breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Long Yan was there, otherwise he might have been in big trouble today.
Of course, with Uncle Da's martial arts skills, he could actually handle those gangsters.
However, if a fight breaks out, they might get arrested by the police.
"Senior Brother, let's go buy some things and then go back to Wulong Temple."
Long Yan didn't plan to linger nearby, lest he attract other gangsters and cause further trouble.
Shortly after Long Yan and Uncle Da left the gym,
Big B arrived at the gym with a group of his underlings...
"Big brother, that little monk is really powerful; he could take on ten of us!"
"Furthermore, he also starred as the male lead in A Chinese Ghost Story 3 and was rumored to be dating actress Wang Xian'er."
"Brother, he also reminded you to take your wife abroad to immigrate as soon as possible, otherwise there will be bloodshed."
“This young monk is quite remarkable. If he could join our Hung Hing, he would certainly have a bright future.”
A group of underlings reported to Big B in a cacophony of voices.
Big B was stunned and wanted to see the monk with his own eyes.
"Did you ask him which temple he was a monk from?" Big B asked.
"It was written in the newspaper that he was a martial monk from Wulong Temple, a disciple of Abbot Changmei, and highly skilled in martial arts."
