Chapter 93 Collecting Intelligence
"Agents of SHIELD?!"
In the antique shop, Li Ran looked at the content displayed on the data panel and subconsciously raised his eyebrows.
Although he expected that SHIELD would contact one of the parties involved in the Chinatown incident, namely Ip Man, he did not expect to take action so soon.
Moreover, through Ye Wen in the martial arts hall, he looked at the young white man opposite who looked completely unaware that his identity had been exposed.
Li Ran complained secretly in his heart.
Are you sure you're an agent of SHIELD and not HYDRA?
Well, at this stage, before Hydra is completely exposed, there is nothing wrong with saying that he is an agent of SHIELD. What's more, even if S.H.I.E.L.D. is really corrupted and disintegrated from the inside by Hydra in the past few decades, there will always be some loyal agents who appear, and Bao Buqi is one of them.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Being looked at by Ip Man's eyes, the young white man looked a little unnatural, and the young white man immediately asked.
Out of confidence in the disguise, he didn't think it was because of his exposure.
"It's nothing." He looked away silently. Although the true identity of the person in front of him had been exposed in Li Ran's eyes, he still decided to continue the act. The person who worked so hard to come to the door, knelt down and worshiped, must give him something. Face is not.
Thinking of this, Li Ran controlled the avatar in the martial arts hall and made a gesture: "Although I have promised to teach you martial arts, I will naturally not break my promise. However, as the saying goes, you must first train your mind to practice martial arts. If you want to truly practice Wing Chun well, First of all, you must practice the basics well. No matter how good your martial arts is, it is just a castle in the air, not worth mentioning..."
"..."
Ip Man talked a lot, but the SHIELD agent in front of him obviously didn't pay much attention to it.
After all, he came here to gather information, not really to learn kung fu.
However, what he didn't know was that Ye Wen across from him didn't really come to teach Kung Fu.
If before, without knowing the identity of the other party's agent, Li Ran thought about teaching the other party a few tricks, when his identity as a SHIELD agent was revealed, Li Ran naturally gave up the idea. Anyway, the other party didn't really come to learn martial arts, so why did he teach him so enthusiastically?
After the simple lecture, Ip Man looked at the young white man: "So, your name is."
"Mike, master, you can call me Mike."
Nodding, regardless of whether the name was true or false, Ip Man immediately said: "Mike, since you want to learn Wing Chun, you must first stand firm on the horse stance."
"Mabu?"
What Ip Man said next involves the core basic knowledge of Kung Fu.
Even Mike, who is a SHIELD agent, does not know everything. After all, to be honest, he is just an ordinary level 5 agent within SHIELD, and the tasks assigned are only to collect intelligence, not more important tasks.
"Horse Step is the foundation of all Kung Fu. As the saying goes, if you practice boxing without practicing Kung Fu, you will become useless in the end. This Kung Fu refers to the basic skill, which is what I call Horse Step."
As he spoke, Ip Man straightened his body, raised his fists to his chest, and bent his knees inward in a weird posture: "From today on, you have to practice this posture every day."
…
"So, this is what you learned in the martial arts gym?"
S.H.I.E.L.D., New York branch.
Nick Fury looked at the weird posture of the agent in front of him in his office, and couldn't help but raise his only exposed eyebrow.
"To be precise, the name of this movement is the two-word clamp Yang Horse, and it is the basis for practicing Wing Chun."
"That's not what I want to ask." He opened his mouth and interrupted the explanation of the man in front of him. Nick Fury said in a deep voice with a straight face: "Agent, remember your mission.
I don't really want you to go to Chinatown to learn the so-called Wing Chun. What I need is information about the other party and everything that happened in Chinatown before. "
Nick Fury's words made the agent quickly come out of the martial arts atmosphere, put away his horse, and looked at the director's striking one eye opposite him. He immediately swallowed his saliva and said: "I understand, director. "
"So tell me Agent, what did you find?"
"After my investigation and questioning of residents near Chinatown, as well as the investigation and evidence collection of the police system, it can be basically concluded that the destruction of Chinatown mainly comes from a guy named Huoyun Evil God?"
"Fire Cloud Evil God?"
A name he had never heard before made Nick Fury repeat it subconsciously.
"Yes, what's interesting is that we also found the name Huoyunxieshen in the internal police report. It originally came from an Asian man named A Xing without any identification. From the description in the police report, And going back in time, we finally found traces of each other in the previous Manhattan incident. According to news reports at the time, a Chinese man kicked away the flying cement stones."
Nick Fury is no stranger to the Manhattan incident mentioned by the agents. The trouble caused by the military, and even the location where the trouble is currently hidden, is controlled by SHIELD.
"Where did this Ah Xing go after that?"
"I don't know." He shook his head. The situation in Hell's Kitchen was chaotic, and the Hand's activities were secretive. Even SHIELD couldn't grasp all the information.
"However, the other party briefly appeared in Harlem for a few days before, and solved a gang leader in Harlem, and mentioned more than once that he came from a place called Penglai."
"Penglai?"
"We investigated and found only descriptions of a place called Penglai Fairy Island in some Chinese myths and legends."
These descriptions of the agents made Nick Fury fall into a brief moment of contemplation. Unlike ordinary S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, he had experienced various wars and knew many secrets unknown to most people in the world. Therefore, The clues will not be ignored just because of the lack of information.
After a moment of silence, Nick Fury brought the topic to the target person again.
"So, where is this guy in the martial arts school?"
"People in Chinatown always call him Master Yip, but I asked him his name before and he said his name is Ip Man."
"Ip man."
With this somewhat convoluted name in his mouth, Nick Fury raised his head and was about to say something when there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in."
Opening the door, Agent Hill walked in with the information: "Director, we found some important information."
