Chapter 181: Courtyard Sect
Completely different from Chen Liquan, who has the expectation of Yuye and will practice diligently every day from now on, after Hong Yanwu walked out of the master's door, he only felt extremely relaxed and free, he felt that the whole world was his own, and he could do whatever he wanted now.

The sun is shining, the air is fresh, and it seems that even the bitter cold wind has become amiable.
The outside world is too open, so open that Hong Yanwu doesn't know what to do down for a while.
To tell you the truth, although I am also single, this feeling is indeed different from the first few days.
At that time, he always felt that there was an invisible hand pinching his neck, lest if he was not careful, Yu Ye would come out from behind him.
So in order to prevent being found by Yuye, he didn't dare to go anywhere during the day, and almost as soon as it was dark, he would sneak back to the warehouse of the quilt factory where he was temporarily accommodating, and spend long nights by curling up in piles of quilts and cotton coats
This kind of loneliness, this kind of coldness, even made him think about whether to take risks simply, do what he should do at one time, and then leave for other places.
But from today onwards, it will be fine! He can completely put his heart in his stomach, and in the current situation of the old man, he will never bother with his affairs anymore.
He no longer needs to look at the faces of others, and he no longer needs to have any scruples!
Of course, in fact, he was also a little sad for Yu Ye's illness, and he also had some sympathy for Chen Liquan, who had to take care of Yu Ye, but for him, it was even more difficult to control himself, but it was the joy of getting two useful kung fu and the excitement of welcoming a comprehensive and free life.
So in order to celebrate, his initial plan is to spend a dime and a half to drink a bowl of wontons, then have a baked cake, and maybe go to the Caishikou Cinema to watch a "free" movie later.
Speaking of which, some people may be surprised, does Hong Yanwu have acquaintances in the Caishikou Cinema?
No, it should be said that this kind of "free" movie is not really free to buy tickets, in fact, it is because the back door of the movie theater leads to an aisle in the residential courtyard behind, although this door is usually locked in order to prevent people from mixing in during the screening, but the key is that the high rear window is a flip window, and with Hong Yanwu's skills, it is easy to climb the high wall and climb in.
It's not that he's too picky, it's not that he can't even afford a ticket with money in his pocket, but now that he has to live on his own, he has to save some money.
What's more, who is willing to spend this unjust money?
Besides, there are a lot of fun places, and he still has to play slowly one by one, but now he is not in a hurry, anyway, there is time, how to use it.
In this way, Hong Yanwu, who had made a decision, walked to the entrance of the vegetable market in a few steps, but he had just finished lunch in the wonton shop, and before he had time to go to the movie, he had already caused a new incident.
How?
Hey, it's purely the iron tire bow that Yu Ye gave him that caused trouble.
It turned out that when Hong Yanwu ate wontons, he carried the bow behind his back, which was a new scene for people back then, and the bow was a very attractive plaything for young people.
So two boys who also ate targeted Hong Yanwu, and after he left, they also followed, and they followed quietly.
You must know that although Hong Yanwu has not yet been able to practice to the realm of "burning his body", his senses are also much more sensitive than ordinary people, and he is naturally aware of every move of these two kids.
Then, as he thought, as soon as he walked to Beitangzi Hutong, the two boys behind him caught up and intercepted him.
He didn't need to say anything, he just looked at the two boys in front of him with cigarettes in their mouths and hats on their heads, and he knew that they were not fun, not to mention that they were not in school at this time, and they must have skipped school.
The only thing that surprised him a little was that the two people in front of him were wearing sheep-sheared hats, wearing authentic "national defense green", and they were also four pockets, which was really rare in the vicinity, according to his guess, nine times out of ten they were the children of soldiers from the three general staff institutes of Baiguang Road.
There is a reason why Hong Yanwu made such an inference.
At that time, the compound represented a decent life of the social elite, and those who could live in it were either soldiers or staff of national ministries and commissions, but because the Nancheng area was mostly a slum gathering area, there were very few "elite areas" like this in the Xuanwu and Chongwen districts.
Because there are not only the "three general staff" compounds, the Ministry of Light Industry (later the Ministry of Electric Power) compound, the five machine department and five hospital dormitory compounds, the water conservancy and hydropower cadre school (now the Ministry of Water Resources) compound, the "Bayi Factory dormitory" (now the Civil Affairs Cadre College) compound, but also in the east of the Baiguang Road shopping mall there is also "black metallurgy" (BJ Iron & Steel Design and Research Institute) compound, after crossing Zaolin Front Street on Baiguang Road, there is also the dormitory compound of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications and the dormitory compound of the North China Electric Power Administration (now the State Grid Jibei Electric Power Company) on the opposite side, which is definitely a large courtyard and is very lively.
The people living in these compounds, although they are engaged in different occupations, people come from all over the world, and their accents are also accented from the south to the north, but these compounds are more or less equipped with commissaries, grain stores, canteens, public bathhouses, barber shops, kindergartens, film projection teams, etc., just like an independent small society, and the basic daily necessities of each family can be solved without leaving the hospital door.
Naturally, people's wealth and nobility will have a clear reaction in the children, the children in these compounds are generally disdainful of the Hutong strings under the protection of their parents, and in the XW district, because these large courtyards are fewer than other areas of the capital, so they are even more scarce and expensive, and even the school is completely separated from the children of the low-level people.
For example, a few limited key primary and secondary schools in the XW district can accommodate almost all the children in the big courtyard, and in those ordinary schools, the biggest official position of the students' parents is just a section-level cadre.
Therefore, these children who grew up in the compound had a pure and natural contempt for the children of the common people since they were young, but due to the chaos of the society at that time and the implementation of the "nearby distribution" policy after the "resumption of classes", when these children grow up, they will inevitably intersect with the children of the common people.
And as soon as they came into contact with each other, conflicts inevitably broke out frequently because of the almost instinctive contempt of the people of the Great Courtyard, which in turn stimulated the children of the common people to destroy their sense of superiority.
What they didn't expect was that after experiencing the competition of real swords and guns, these big courtyard disciples were at a disadvantage in an all-round way, so this result made them have a new feeling for some civilian children, that is, fear!
To put it bluntly, there are many children in the compound, and it is easy to become a "potential", and they are also good at taking advantage of the situation, but they lack the real masters who have the courage to fight alone.
Therefore, they form a gang to coax, and it is okay to bully the lonely, but they are real, one by one, and they are absolutely "wild" but the children in the alley.
Don't forget, most of the civilian children in the Hutong are like Hong Yanwu, who grew up with bitterness and hatred, and they naturally get out of the fight when they fight, and they don't want to die.
In this way, in the true sense of the word, most of the hooligan gangs are also from the common people, and for this reason, it is difficult for the people of the big courtyard not to be frightened? Who dares to call out lightly?
In those days, such natural antagonisms had always existed, so the good fighters in the large courtyard were similar to the fighters among the commoners, the "playing masters", and there was also a special term to call them, called "courtyard faction".
Later, when many well-known writers described the situation of this era, they were accustomed to calling the children of the big courtyard also "playing master", but this is completely a fallacy, I don't know why, they actively ignored that "playing master" is just a unique term belonging to the common people, and in the cognition of people at that time, this word is equivalent to the nemesis of the "academy school" at all.
And like today, what Hong Yanwu encountered was precisely the two "academy factions" of the "Three Courtyards of the General Staff Department".
It's a pity that these two boys are too unlucky, although they are worried about "two fists are hard to beat four hands", and want to rob openly, but Hong Yanwu's two fists are iron, and the tragic ending is completely predictable.
The specific process of the fight was like this, just after the kid arrogantly shouted, "Little cub, take down your bow and play with us!" After the sentence, he suddenly felt as if his genitals had been hit by a heavy hammer.
Then, his body suddenly bent into a bow, like a boiled prawn.
Hong Yanwu, on the other hand, pulled his right knee out between the kid's legs nonchalantly, allowing his tense body to slowly slip to the ground.
After that, he grabbed the other kid by the neck again, as easily as he was pinching a chicken, and then bent his arm and threw a heavy hook, which beat the kid to vomit again......
A moment later, when these two boys were only wearing autumn clothes and pants, as if they were being chased by ghosts, they escaped from Beitangzi Hutong in a panic, and only Hong Yanwu, who had just changed into a "national defense green" and held another set of military uniforms in his hand, was left in the alley.
In fact, if it is fair to say that he has no experience in "picking up military uniforms", nor does he understand the way of it, he did not force them to do it, in fact, the two boys completely voluntarily took off their clothes and pants in exchange for freedom.
However, this was a windfall for him, because not only could he send the extra set of military uniforms to the trust store to exchange money, but also had a set of military uniforms, which was also the ideal of countless young people of that era.
He himself used to dream that one day he would be able to wear a grass-green military uniform, a military hat, and a green military scarf on his shoulder, but all this has always been so out of reach for a person of his family background.
But now, the dream has finally come true!
Hong Yanwu looked up at his new clothes, and he didn't know what was going on, a strange inferiority complex and another inexplicable ambition were intertwined in his heart, which couldn't help but make him think an extremely unrealistic idea.
From now on, it will definitely be different, what are the "black five categories" and "red five categories"? As long as you wear this military uniform, the young master is a high-ranking cadre!
As long as Lao Tzu has these fists, isn't it black if he wants to be black, and red if he wants to be red?
Whoever dares to offend me, I will give him a taste of violence!
