"O child of the Lord, you can meet me as God's guide, let me ask you, do you know God? Do you know Christianity?" The big-nosed foreigner actually pulled out a small silver cross from the collar of his suit, "I am a pastor from the United States, my name is Lewis, and the black man is my young Simon ......"
"I know, I certainly know, that Christianity originated in Palestine as the first doctrine of the Jews, and then spread to ancient Rome and split into Orthodoxy and Catholicism. I know that many of you Americans believe in Protestantism, and why don't you Americans have a civil war now? Lincoln is about to win, and you still have the heart to preach?" Xiao Letian's mouth was like a machine gun, and he suddenly stuffed Lewis speechless.
"Oh God, God, you know so much?" Lewis playfully drew a cross on his chest.
"Don't pray, solve my problem first, save me, if I am treated as a long hair, I won't be able to live......" As he was talking, Qing Sanye had already come over with more than a dozen house slaves, "Okay, don't pretend to be garlic for your dead long hair, you know a few words of foreign language, don't think that Lord Yang will help you, did Lord Yang help you when you were making trouble in the south?"
After speaking, Qing Sanye shook his hand, "Come on, tie him up for me, and when Yixian arrives, I will personally interrogate and interrogate." Haha, I didn't expect that my Qing Sanye could also capture a long hair alive, and when the time comes, the Zongren Mansion will report it to me, this is a great achievement......"
Just when the house slaves rushed up like wolves and wanted to tie up Xiao Letian, Pastor Lewis suddenly stood up and stretched out his hands to stop the menacing house slaves, "You can't do this, you are violating the "Beijing Treaty" and "Tianjin Treaty" by doing this, this young man is a religious citizen, and he is my believer...... After speaking, he actually took off the cross around his neck and hung it directly on Xiao Letian's neck.
Qing Sanye was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Pastor Liu to stand on the side of this strange man with a clear banner, and the entire caravan was stunned. Now, after the Second Opium War, the Qing Dynasty has completely opened up the right to preach and do business in the interior to foreigners, and the people's fear of foreigners began at this time.
"Foreign ...... Yoshi-sama...... Don't be joking with me, you don't know this person just now, just talking a bunch of words, and you accepted a disciple? Are you kidding me?" Qing Sanye still wanted to work hard, and he looked at Xiao Letian and looked at how he looked like a moving credit book.
Unfortunately, Reverend Lewis righteously rejected his request: "A treaty is a treaty, and your emperor has approved our conditions, do you dare to disobey?"
"No, no, no, don't think about it, I'm just asking...... Come on, you can continue...... "As soon as Qing Sanye heard that the emperor's name had moved out, how could he play this?
Lewis returned to the caravan and didn't know what he was talking to the shopkeeper Fan, anyway, the two of them looked very solemn, but Xiao Lotian was safe in a short time, and the black Simon found Xiao Lotian something to eat, dry dough cake with bacon and water, Xiao Lotian was hungry, and he devoured it sweetly.
However, his mouth was busy eating, and his eyes were not idle, and this caravan of more than a hundred people looked strange. The shopkeeper Fan and his men are the most numerous, there are more than ninety of them, and basically every guy in it has knives and guns, it seems that it is not only an ordinary caravan, but also a bit of a bodyguard.
As for that Qing Sanye, who was also introduced by Simon just now, he is a lieutenant under the Eight Banners, and it sounds like a hereditary small title. And some of the thirty Eight Banner soldiers who guarded Qing Sanye were his sons, and the other part was the protector of Xiling in Yixian County.
It's weird enough for a team of businessmen and a team of Eight Banners to be mixed together, but I didn't expect that there were two foreigners in this team, one of whom was still a missionary, which was even more confusing. However, what Xiao Lotian was good at in his previous life was public relations, and he still had some skills in sweetly observing words and feelings, and after a while, he inquired from the mouths of Simon and a few bold guys.
It turned out that this caravan started from Shanxi, went from Taiyuan to Xinzhou, then to Daixian, Lingqiu, Laiyuan, Yixian, and finally to Baoding, and then continued north into the capital. The shopkeeper Fan is a member of the well-known Fan family in the Jin merchants, and this time he entered the capital in late autumn, and he is afraid that he will celebrate the New Year in Sijiu City.
As for Qing Sanye Fuqing, he took the task of the Internal Affairs Office to go to Shanxi on a business trip, and on the way back, he happened to meet the shopkeeper Fan, as if the two had a little friendship before, so they left together. This is also a common thing in the Taihang Mountains, there are many fierce beasts and bandits in the deep mountains and old forests, and there are still many people and great power.
But fortunately, this route has to pass through Yi County, that is, the boundary under the jurisdiction of Xiling in the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing government's control of this mountainous area is still very strict.
Also, if the Qing government can't even protect the place where its ancestors sleep, it would be too unfilial.
As for the American missionary Lewis, this is purely a task for the old shopkeeper to be stuffed by the county government on behalf of the county, and the foreign people have walked around in Shanxi for a long time, and the local governments dare not take care of them lightly, so they will send people to take care of them throughout the whole process, for fear that the foreign adults will have some accidents in their own territory, and they will not be able to eat and walk away.
Later, Lord Yang decided to spend the Spring Festival in Beijing, which made the local government breathe a sigh of relief, and the plague god finally decided to leave. However, although Lord Yang has a noble status, there is no reason to use the army to escort him, and the county lord thought about it, and still stuffed this hot potato to the Fan family. Anyway, their Fan family is very experienced in taking this trade route, so there should be no major incidents.
"Good guy, the Fan family caravan, the head of the eight families of the Jin Dynasty, plus the nobles of the Eight Banners of Zhenggen'er, and the American missionaries who came to China across the ocean......?
Just when Xiao Letian turned his head, a grimace suddenly appeared in front of him, which startled him a lot, "Oh, my mom, you are ......" Before he finished speaking, he took a closer look, and the grimace was actually made by a girl.
"Hahaha, you are the second devil that the guys say? I heard that you can speak the words of foreigners? You say a word, let me listen, and your braids? Without braids, are you not afraid of killing your head? Hey, what is the cross hanging around your neck, this is the Bodhisattva of your foreign religion ......"
This little girl with a grimace, one smile is two dimples, and a smile is two tiger teeth, she is really as lively as she is. Xiao Lotian was stunned at the time, he didn't expect that there would be such an open girl in the Qing Dynasty, who dared to make such a joke with a strange man, and he was speechless for a while.
The tiger tooth chick was very disappointed, "It looks like the skin is very good-looking, how can you be a fool?" she can't even speak, it's really disappointing...... "After speaking, she walked back."
"I, I'm not a fool, my name is Xiao Letian, just now you shot and popped up, it scared me...... "Xiao Lotian is not the first brother of the pickle girl, the beautiful girl takes the initiative to show you goodwill, if you don't follow, it will be doomed to die for the rest of your life."
"Your name is Xiao Letian, and my name is Hu Niu...... Tell me, how did you learn what foreigners say? Oh, you've actually been to a foreign country, and you've also been to the realm of foreign devils...... Tell me, what was the place where the West Heaven learned scriptures back then? Is there really a Flame Mountain......" The little beauty's mouth was not idle, and she could interject a sentence when she said ten sentences.
As she was talking, suddenly a thin yellow girl ran over, "Oh Miss, why are you staying here, ah...... Hell!" The little girl saw the black Simon and the yellow-haired Lewis at a glance, and she was still scared when she saw it once before.
The little girl shouted, and at that time it alarmed the shopkeeper Fan and Qing Sanye, who were talking secretly in front of the caravan, and the old shopkeeper saw that it was okay, how did his daughter run in front of the two devils, it was really not worry-free.
"Tiger girl, you stinky girl still want to be shameless? The big girl talks to a strange man in broad daylight, it's a shame......" The old man rushed over and stretched out his hand to slap the tiger girl's mouth, but he didn't expect the tiger girl to be even more spicy, and her head was crooked, "You fight, you forced my mother to death, you still want to beat me to death......?"
The shopkeeper Fan's face was almost black, and he couldn't go down with his raised hand, it seemed that he usually doted on this girl very much, but the girl who turned out to be was not afraid of this father at all. Xiao Letian looked stupid, oh, how can this old shopkeeper be more than sixty years old, how old can this girl be? Fifteen or sixteen? Your old man's combat power is good enough.
At this time, Xiao Letian didn't dare to speak, the old man didn't make a move at him, it was enough to give face, but in the chaos, Xiao Lotian was suddenly surprised to find that this tiger girl was actually a pair of heavenly feet! Oh, it seems that the old man really dotes on this girl, at this time, in the Qing Dynasty, except for Manchurian women and ethnic minorities who do not bind their feet, the Han people are all three-inch golden lotus. Without a pair of small feet, you don't want to marry a good man.
"Hey, how much dowry does this old shopkeeper have to prepare to marry off this bigfoot girl?" But it's okay, to my appetite, hehehe...... "Xiao Lotian is really an optimist, and he can still steal happiness in his heart when it's messed up like this."
In the end, Qing Sanye came over to make a round, and the old shopkeeper's hand was put down. The tiger girl angrily returned to her black box car and gambled, "Don't let me do this, don't let me do that, don't even let the carriage go along the way, it's better to let me die......" It seems that the little girl is suffocated along the way.
"The third master can't help it, I lack rules at home, it really makes you laugh, I'll send this girl to Beijing City, and let his cousin teach her the rules well......" The red-faced shopkeeper Fan said.
"Where and where ......" Qing Sanye said a few perfunctory words, turned around and stared at Xiao Letian again, "This friend, although Lord Yang has saved you, your identity is also suspicious, if you want to go with us all the way, then you have to cover your eyes and let us escort you ......"
After saying that, as soon as Qing Sanye opened his mouth, two wolf-like house slaves pounced over, one grabbed Xiao Letian's hand, and the other covered his head with a black cloth pocket, "Boy, be honest, if you don't kill you, you will already give face to Lord Yang, don't you be interesting......" After speaking, he tied Xiao Letian's hand.
