Hearing what one of them said, the others all had weird expressions on their faces. They looked like they were mocking him, but they didn't dare to show it.
Hao Zhonghua, an internationally renowned biologist, announced that he was looking for dragons, and it immediately became a hot topic in the media. When Hao Zhonghua personally promoted this project, it became a hot topic in the industry.
Those mediocre or lazy people who had been in the scientific community for decades pointed fingers at Hao Zhonghua and wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
How could the legendary dragons exist? Hao Zhonghua's project was destroying his own reputation.
Even the senior scientists called Hao Zhonghua and advised him not to do things that were not good for his future development.
However, Hao Zhonghua withstood the pressure and raised the funds himself to build this project. Since things had come to this, the government gave Hao Zhonghua some money symbolically, and the topic was placed in the marine biology section.
At this moment, this scientist suddenly mentioned this matter, and his intention to mock Hao Zhonghua was self-evident.
Hao Zhonghua looked at him coldly, knowing where their evil intentions were coming from.
These scientists who came to East Ocean City with Conqueror Group were actually experts in automobile engineering. The five-billion-yuan investment project was ruined, and the money they were going to get would be wasted.
Hao Zhonghua always welcomed all kinds of criticism and opinions, but he didn't like the fact that these scientists who were in the field of machinery were making irresponsible remarks on a project in the biological field.
"Zhonghua, don't argue with them," Yue Yang saw the change in Hao Zhonghua's expression and comforted him in a low voice.
With Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang's status, they didn't need to argue with these low-level scientists. If they argued with them, they might even help them gain fame. In the scientific community in China, some people didn't make any achievements in their fields. Instead, they cheated others to gain fame.
"Academician Yue, do you also think that the dragon project is also high-tech?"
Seeing that Hao Zhonghua didn't respond, they continued to ask.
In fact, Yue Yang didn't believe in dragons, but since Hao Zhonghua insisted on this project, she supported her husband.
"I think the so-called rising stars in the international scientific community, Academician Hao and Academician Yue, are just so-so. The whimsical project of searching for a dragon was a scam. In other words, he is someone who deceives the world to gain fame, "one of them said.
"You …"
Yue Yang's anger rose in an instant.
She could still tolerate all the other comments. However, Yue Yang couldn't hold it in anymore when she said that they were deceivers, especially when they insulted Hao Zhonghua's reputation.
She knew best about Hao Zhonghua's hard work. For the sake of his beloved scientific research career, Hao Zhonghua often didn't go home for months and spent most of his time in his lab. His pragmatic style and rigorous attitude allowed him to make important scientific discoveries one after another.
In order to focus more on his research, Hao Zhonghua even rejected many international science awards. He was so dedicated to his research that he didn't care about fame at all. How dare they say that he was a liar!
"How dare you speak to my son like that! Talk about my son! "
When Yue Yang was about to retaliate, Grandma picked up her walking stick and poked it at the scientists who were badmouthing Hao Zhonghua.
Today, Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang accompanied Grandma to watch the dragon boat race at the Yellow Dragon River. They were worried that Grandma would not be able to keep up, so they gave her a walking stick. When Grandma heard outsiders talking about her son like that, she was enraged. She picked up the walking stick and started to hit them!
"Ouch! Ouch! "
The few scientists hurriedly dodged. Grandma's strength wasn't great, but it was still very painful to be poked by the hard crutch.
"I'll break your legs! I'll break your filthy mouths! You said that my son is a liar! You said that my son is a liar! "The more Grandma hit them, the angrier she got. She held the walking stick with both hands and started to hit them.
The platform was ten meters above the bridge, and the river was flowing on the other side of the railing. The scientists didn't expect this old lady to be so fierce, and they almost fell over the railing while they dodged.
Thud!
The muscular Zeng Xin suddenly caught Grandma's walking stick with one hand.
Grandma tried to pull the walking stick back, but she couldn't move it no matter how hard she tried.
"Mayor Wu, I brought these people here. I don't think it's a good idea for you to hit them," Zeng Xin said.
However, the moment he said it, Hao Ren suddenly took two steps forward and grabbed Grandma's walking stick with one hand.
"Grandma!" Lu Linlin and Lu Lili each grabbed Grandma's arms.
"Humph!" Zeng Xin was in a bad mood, and he exerted force with his right hand.
Afraid that Zeng Xin would hurt Grandma, Hao Ren took over Grandma's position and exerted force as well.
Crack!
The pear-wood walking stick broke into two pieces instantly.
Mayor Wu looked at Hao Ren and Zeng Xin in astonishment. He didn't expect them to be so strong, and he doubted the quality of the walking stick.
"Hao Ren, hit them! Throw these b * stards into the river and feed them to the Dragon King! "Grandma who was dragged to the back by Lu Linlin and Lu Lili said angrily.
Hearing her words, Zhao Guang and Zeng Xin's faces froze. They didn't want to eat such things …
"Mayor Wu, I don't think it's a good idea to hit people," Qin Shaoyang walked up and said.
In his palm, there was some light gathering. Ordinary dragon cultivators couldn't attack mortals, but inspectors could break this rule.
"Mr. Qin, they were insulting people. What do you think?" Su Han walked up suddenly, and a green light appeared in her palm.
"It's just a quarrel. It's not right to hit people …" Qin Shaoyang's tone softened when he saw Su Han.
From his understanding of Su Han, he didn't think that she would get involved in something that had nothing to do with her, but he didn't expect that she would do it.
"Mr. Qin, I remember that you were going to Xiliang City to paint. Why are you still in East Ocean City?" Su Han said lightly.
"Uh …" Qin Shaoyang's aura weakened again.
Su Han's invisible aura suppressed Qin Shaoyang's! The Dragon God Shrine transferred Qin Shaoyang to the cold northwest region, and he shouldn't stay in East Ocean City!
"Mr. Zeng, you came to East Ocean City for an inspection, so you are our guest. However, as a guest, you must play your part and not steal the host's place," Su Han said lightly to Zeng Xin.
Zeng Xin was the Dragon King of West Ocean, but he couldn't say anything in front of Su Han. On one hand, Su Han was the regional inspector of East Ocean City, and on the other hand, she was a mid-tier Qian-level super master!
A powerful dragon couldn't beat a snake in its own territory. Moreover, the West Ocean Dragon Clan had lost a lot of strength, and they didn't want to challenge the Dragon God Shrine!
With a gloomy expression, he turned to look at the scientists and said, "Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Hao!"
These scientists all worked in the research center of Conqueror Group, and they worked for Conqueror Group. They looked at each other and lowered their heads. "Academician Hao, Academician Yue, we were just joking. Please don't take it seriously. We apologize to you."
Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang didn't even look at them. "How can such spineless people be scientists?"
After forcing Qin Shaoyang back, Su Han snorted and took two steps back to Yue Yang's side.
Grandma's anger turned into a smile. She gently picked up Su Han's delicate wrist and said, "Good girl! I like it! What's your name? "
Su Han withdrew her hand awkwardly. "Su Han."
"Little Su. Good! Good! Good!" Grandma nodded in satisfaction.
Yue Yang couldn't help but glance at Su Han. She found that Su Han was mature and beautiful, and she had an inviolable aura under her coldness.
"Ok! Ok! The dragon boat race has begun. Let's watch the race," Mayor Wu said as he pointed to the distance.
Hao Ren threw away the broken cane and returned to Grandma's side.
Hao Ren had been on guard against Zeng Xin ever since he met him. Mortals were vulnerable in front of cultivators. If Zeng Xin really wanted to hurt his family, Hao Ren wouldn't hesitate to fight with his life.
Seven dragon boats had set off from the Xinchuan Bridge in the distance. They would cross the Xuchuan Bridge where they were standing and arrive at the Wuchuan Bridge on the other side.
The red boat in the middle was the East Ocean City Dragon Boat Team. As for the other six, they were teams sent by the nearby cities for the competition.
The drums on both sides of the river were thundering, and the cheers resonated on the river.
Each dragon boat was filled with a hundred burly men. Their orderly rowing movements allowed the dragon boats to move very quickly on the 300-meter-wide river.
Hao Ren protected Grandma and turned to look for Zhen Congming. He found that the kid had slipped to Wu Luoxue's side and was whispering to her. However, this little beauty didn't seem to care about Zhen Congming.
"Academician Hao, why don't we make a bet and see which team will win the race?" Mayor Wu wanted to lighten the mood and suggested to Hao Zhonghua.
"Sure!" Hao Zhonghua agreed readily. He looked at the seven dragon boats in the distance and said, "I say the black one on the westernmost side will win."
"What about Mr. Zeng?" Mayor Wu turned around and asked.
"Humph!" Zeng Xin snorted and didn't answer. A small mayor couldn't do anything to him, so he didn't give him any face.
Mayor Wu was displeased that he was rejected. He turned to Zhao Guang and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Zhao?"
"I'll bet on the blue one," Zhao Guang said.
"Ho Ho Ho. Let me do it, too. I mean the green one." Grandma said excitedly.
"If so, I'll bet on our East Ocean City Team winning the red one," Mayor Wu said.
"What do you want to bet?" Yue Yang asked with a smile.
"Let's make it 100 yuan," Mayor Wu said.
Zhao Guang and the others nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Zhao Yanzi nudged Xie Yujia with her arm and looked at her in an unfriendly way. "Let's bet as well."
"What do you want to bet on?" Xie Yujia looked at her calmly.
Zhao Yanzi glanced at Hao Ren who was standing beside Grandma before turning to Xie Yujia. "What do you think?"
