Kusuo Tamaki shook her head. "I don't know yet. My mother said my father was a leader among the youth in the country when he was young, and that he inherited an ancient tradition."
Ye Tian: "Has your mother come to find him?"
Kusuo Tamaki sighed softly. "She has, more than once. But my father is unwilling to leave there."
"What will you do if he still refuses to leave?" Ye Tian asked a very practical question.
Kusuo Tamaki said indifferently, "If he doesn't leave, I'll live with him in the small town. Going back is a dead end anyway, so it's better to grow old there, at least I'll have my father with me."
Ye Tian: "I'm very curious, how did your mother manage such a large conglomerate?"
Kusuo Tamaki replied, "Of course, it's because of my father. At that time, my father stayed in Toumei for a period, and it was during that time that my mother successfully rose to power and became the controller of the conglomerate."
Ye Tian was suddenly filled with curiosity about this person. To be able to let his woman control a conglomerate in such a short time, what kind of terrifying strength would that require? And what kind of reason would cause this true dragon to be trapped in shallow waters?
The car drove onto the highway. Kusuo Tamaki closed her eyes to rest, while Ye Tian observed the car. Now that Kusuo Tamaki was in danger, he had to remain vigilant at all times.
After driving for more than three hours, Kusuo Tamaki asked the driver to exit the highway.
Ye Tian asked, "Miss Kusuo, where are we going?"
Kusuo Tamaki replied, "To visit my teacher."
Ye Tian remembered that Kusuo Tamaki had a teacher since childhood, and he didn't expect him to live nearby.
At this moment, the car had entered a county town in Yan Province. As soon as they entered the county town, Ye Tian clearly felt that the people here were quite spirited.
The driver drove the car steadily, but cars behind them honked frequently. Moreover, cars kept forcing their way into the oncoming lane to overtake, completely disregarding the double solid lines in the middle of the road.
"The people here are quite interesting," he said with a smile.
Kusuo Tamaki smiled and said, "Chengwu County is the hometown of martial arts. In its heyday, the county town gathered three thousand martial arts masters, so the people here are fond of fighting and often spar. The situation has improved a lot in recent decades. Fifty years ago, more than ten people died in spars in Chengwu County every day. Fifty years ago, the top expert from the capital came to Chengwu County to spar with someone, but he was defeated by three experts in succession and left Chengwu County in disgrace."
Ye Tian couldn't help but be curious, "How can such a small county town have so many experts?"
Kusuo Tamaki: "My teacher said that when the Qing soldiers entered the pass, many experts were persecuted. Among them were two great chivalrous heroes with profound martial arts skills and formidable reputations in the martial arts world. They brought many martial arts colleagues with them and fled here, building a stronghold in the mountains called Chengwu Village, occupying the mountain and ruling as kings. The Qing soldiers attacked several times but were defeated, and later two generals were killed."
"Since there were many talented individuals in the stronghold, the Qing court understood that killing these people would come at a great cost, so they pardoned them. Later, Chengwu Village gradually developed into a town, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty, it became a small county town."
Ye Tian: "There's actually such a legendary story."
Kusuo Tamaki said, "Yes. Chengwu County still has halls today. Every year on the fifth day of the seventh lunar month, all the practitioners gather at the halls, which is called the Chengwu Assembly. The Chengwu Assembly is very lively, and every year the best young fighters are selected and rewarded."
As soon as the car entered the county town, Ye Tian was surprised to find that the roads here were all dual eight-lane, the road surface was flat and very wide, and the greenery was also well done. Moreover, almost no factories could be seen in the entire county town.
He clicked his tongue in amazement. Just as he was about to ask Kusuo Tamaki, a police car drove over and paralleled them on the side.
Kusuo Tamaki rolled down the window, and saw a young police officer sitting in the car opposite. He smiled and said, "Miss Kusuo, it's been half a year since you last visited."
Kusuo Tamaki smiled and said, "Officer Wan, long time no see."
Officer Wan smiled and said, "Miss Kusuo, are you going to see Elder Wei? I'll clear the way for you."
The police car drove ahead, leading the way. With the siren sounding, all vehicles made way, showing exceptional cooperation.
