**Old Buffon** is a martial arts lunatic who was saved by Yang Ming.

## Personality

* Kung fu lunatic
* Spiritless
* Easy-going,

## Background

He is in charge of the Italian Buffon Family. Old Buffon was the patriarch of a big family in Europe. Although the family didn't get a lot of publicity, many large European companies were secretly controlled by the Buffon Family.

For example, Frank's Lutong Automobile Group was controlled by Old Buffon's family. This wasn't surprising at all. This kind of situation was also happening in China.

## History

He came with his subsidiary's chairman, Frank, to Song Jiang for a holiday abroad. He thought he would be able to enjoy it, but he didn't know how two desperadoes got the news of him being a rich person. Hence, there was such a scene.

It was said that the chairman of one of Frank's domestic subsidiaries here in China invited Frank to come here for a holiday. Frank wanted to court Old Buffon's favor, so he brought Old Buffon along.

Old Buffon saw Marco Polo's travels in his early years, therefore, he was very interested in the culture and customs of China. Therefore, he followed Frank to Song Jiang.

Frank was an old drunkard. The top executives who he brought here were also drunkards. After they came here, other than drinking they were just playing. Although Old Buffon didn't like to drink, he came out to play anyway. Moreover, it wasn't appropriate for him to interfere with Frank. After all, it was a holiday instead of work, and it wasn't appropriate for Old Buffon to interfere in these matters.

Therefore, Frank was drinking with China's representatives all day in the hotel while Old Buffon was casually strolling on the street, enjoying the local customs.

Originally, there were bodyguards following Old Buffon every day. However, today, Old Buffon spontaneously wanted to take a walk around the hotel in the morning, so he didn't inform the bodyguards to follow him.

He didn't expect that just by walking around the hotel an accident would happen! Talking about it, this had to be blamed on Old Buffon. Old Buffon saw an old man practicing with his sword not far away in the woods. Moreover, Old Buffon was a fan of Chinese Kung Fu. It was to the extent where he was obsessive about it. At home, he had watched The Legend of The Condor Heroes, The Romance of the Condor Heroes, and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils [1] a few times already.

Moreover, he also gathered a ton of martial arts guides to study at home. Although there was not much result, he enjoyed himself thoroughly with it.

Today, when he saw this old man practicing his sword, he wanted to have a closer look. Old Buffon didn't know much about China's culture. After watching plenty of historical TV shows [1], he thought that there were still some martial arts masters in China who would know how to climb the roof and walk on the wall, and assassinate with concealed weapons!

Old Buffon walked to the vicinity of the old man and looked at the old man who practiced the sword in amazement. Suddenly, two men rushed up to control the Old Buffon directly. Just as Old Buffon wanted to call for help, Zhang Hunan with an aquiline nose covered his mouth.

Old Buffon was terrified when he knew that he was being held hostage by the bad guys. He had his last hope on the old man who practiced the sword. He hoped that the old man would act like a hero on TV to serve justice, and beat up these two people in front of him until they were utterly defeated!

However, to Old Buffon's disappointment, not only did the old man not save him, but the old man was standing there trembling! It was no wonder too. The old man was just here to exercise his body. He was okay to play with his Tai Chi sword, but when it came to fighting, he wouldn't know how!

Amid Old Buffon's disappointment, he also started to have doubts about Chinese Kung Fu. Could it be that those were all special effects in the film? Were those only legends? Just for show? He thought this although some people had already told Old Buffon in the past that there wasn't anything like hitting acupoints, hidden weapons, and so on. Those were all lies.

However, there used to be an old Chinese doctor who told Old Buffon that hitting the acupoint was also valid from the perspective of Chinese medicine. Therefore, Old Buffon firmly believed that there must be some exceptional individuals in the land of China.

## Plot

He was rescued by Yang Ming from kindappers because Yang Ming couldn't stand that kidnapping happens on his territory. After Yang Ming saved him, Old Buffon immediately wanted to become his disciple.

## Trivia

* Foreign old men have a young heart in general. They were even crazier than young people. Old Buffon was such a person! In order to study Chinese Martial Arts, he had learned a lot of Chinese.
