Next chapter

"I heard about Gu Sanye's matter from an overseas Guihongmen person. As for me coming to visit Gu Sanye, I also wanted to find the organization of Guihongmen, so that we could help each other in the future...... By the way, this is also my master's deathbed explanation. Li Yu said half-truthfully.

Chen Yilin sighed and said, "Help each other? Alas, what is there to return to Hongmen now, and who can give you any help. I estimate that in the whole country, except for old people like me, there are only a few people who know about Guihongmen. When our generation is dead, Guihongmen may disappear completely. ”

"Why can't we rebuild the Guihong Gate?" Li Yu asked.

"Rebuild Guihongmen?" Chen Yilin said, "How to build?" What does Guihongmen do, presumably your master also told you, now that it is a legal society, what use can an organization like Guihongmen be? If you don't get it right, the police still think that we want to do something*, which is a big crime. ”

Li Yu asked, "Old Chen, for so many years, have you never been in contact with other people from Guihongmen?" As far as I know, Gu Sanye is the original contact person of Guihongmen in Qihua, he should have a national contact map in his hand, and he should also have the situation of Guihong's disciples in Qihua, has he not been in contact with these people? ”

Chen Yilin hesitated for a moment and said, "This matter is actually not a secret, and it doesn't hurt to talk to you." When the People's Republic of China was first founded, the activities of Guihongmen were quite frequent, and we often had people coming and going. However, later encountered the rebellion, many people from Guihongmen had something to do with those who knew the Daomen, and they were arrested, and after that, the activities of Guihongmen became less and less, and many old friends did not dare to contact them anymore. ”

When Chen Yilin said that he was rebellious, he was referring to the great movement at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. At that time, there was a mixture of fish and dragons in society, and in order to stabilize the situation as much as possible, the newly established regime adopted relatively tough measures and severely cracked down on and banned a number of "huidaomen". Although Guihongmen was originally both righteous and evil, although he never did anything that hurt nature and reason, some eclectic ways of doing things were obviously contrary to the requirements of the legal society, so they were also affected a lot.

According to Chen Yilin, at that time, the leader of the Guihongmen in Qihua took in a few spies out of righteousness, so he was imprisoned as an accomplice of the spies for more than ten years, and finally died in prison. After this person was imprisoned, the members of Guihongmen who were divided into rudders also dispersed as birds and beasts. Gu Sanye, as a liaison, has been working behind the scenes and has not been implicated. He kept the oath he had taken when he accepted the assignment and stayed on Friendship Street for decades, waiting for someone to come and make contact. When he was dying, he passed this task to his daughter and son-in-law, and asked them to swear to keep their inn and not give up.

"You've been guarding it all the time?" Li Yu asked in some surprise.

Chen Yilin smiled bitterly: "Is there any way, this is the old man's last wish." I am an orphan, not an old man who took me in, and recruited me as a son-in-law, how can I be where I am today. I wondered, why not make a living? The inn left by the old man is enough for my family to live, so I will guard it here, which can be regarded as a wish to help the old man. When I die one day, the mission will be over. ”

It turns out that this is the case, Li Yu somewhat understood. It seems that that Gu Sanye is indeed loyal and commendable, knowing that Guihongmen has declined, he still sticks to it here. Because he accepted the task of building an inn as a cover, he has always run the inn and has not changed industries. As for Chen Yilin's hands, the inn was changed into an express hotel, which can be regarded as keeping pace with the times.

"Old Chen, for so many years, you haven't been in contact with anyone from Guihongmen?" Li Yu asked.

"You can't say that." Chen Yilin said, "A few years ago, when my father-in-law was still alive, he had been correspondingly with some friends from other places, and occasionally everyone would get together and send some money to friends who were in difficulty in life. After the death of his father-in-law, his old friends also passed away one after another. We, the children and nephews, didn't have much contact with each other in the first place, and because of the different circumstances of each family, we didn't speculate, so we slowly stopped contacting. ”

"I see." Li Yu said, "Old Chen, do you still have a way to contact the descendants of Guihongmen in other places you said?" ”

"What are you going to do?" Chen Yilin was surprised.

Li Yu said: "I want to visit them." ”

Chen Yilin asked, "Why?" ”

Li Yu said: "After 2,000 years, Guihongmen has suffered many catastrophes during this period, and it is almost impossible to recover, but it has persevered. In the hands of our generation, if it dies out like this, what will we be like in the future to meet our predecessors? I want to find the descendants of Guihongmen, to see how many of them are willing to rebuild Guihongmen, and I want to restore the glory of Hongmen. ”

"Young man, your heart is too big, isn't it?" Chen Yilin said, "I don't know much about Guihongmen, and I listened to my father-in-law's introduction to all the relevant things. He did say that Guihongmen has a history of 2,000 years, but that is already history after all. Guihongmen is an assassin organization, and in the era of non-* system, this kind of happy revenge is indifferent. Now that it is a legal society, you still have to rebuild Guihongmen, what do you want Guihongmen to do? ”

Li Yu said: "Time has passed, and of course it is impossible to do the kind of happy revenge in the past." But the chivalrous spirit of Guihongmen will never go out of style at any time. Is there no injustice, no ugliness, in our time today? The matter of fighting with the sword to eliminate traitors is still something that can be done. Also, Guihongmen has fought against foreign captives in all dynasties, and today the country still has enemies, and it is always okay to fight the enemy together, right? ”

"For this reason alone, I'm afraid it's hard to unite everyone again, right?" Chen Yilin said.

"I don't believe that today's young people don't have blood." Li Yu laughed.

"I admit it, there will definitely be hot-blooded men." Chen Yilin said, "But, in addition to blood, everyone also has to eat and dress, and live, right?" Can you make everyone abandon their profession and go with you to do something to eliminate violence and peace, and do the right thing for heaven? ”

"That's the other point I'm going to make." Li Yu said, "I want to rebuild Guihongmen, in addition to wanting to do things for the heavens, I also want to help the descendants of Guihongmen solve some difficulties in reality." The strength of one person is always limited, but if we can combine the strength of thousands or tens of thousands of people distributed throughout the country and advance and retreat together with honor and disgrace, won't everyone's strength increase? ”

"Do you think you can do it?" Chen Yilin asked suspiciously.

"It's man-made." Li Yu replied with confidence.

Although Chen Yilin is a descendant of Guihongmen, he has never participated in the activities of Guihongmen, and he does not know the value of an organization. Li Yu came from an era of war and chaos, and he knew very well what kind of benefits a sect could bring to its members.

After arriving in this era, Li Yu can be regarded as breaking out of a small world with his own skills, but the more things he comes into contact with, the more he feels that there is no defect in the organization. When something happens, he can only fight alone, and He Chanlin can make him feel a great threat. If you go back 400 years, how can a gangster leader in a small place like He Chanlin have rampant capital in front of a disciple of the Great Gate Sect like Li Yu.

Li Yu accepted Ou Liwen's invitation to join the secret front, also wanting to find a backer for himself. But he found that this backer is hard enough, but the flexibility is too poor, and he has to pay attention to principles in everything, which is far less freewheeling than a gang like Guihongmen.

If it weren't for the contact map provided by Zhu Chun'an, Li Yu wouldn't be able to find anyone else from Guihongmen, maybe he wouldn't have moved this thought. But after getting the contact map, the * in his heart that rebuilt and returned to Hongmen spread inexorably like a weed. He thought about it, and he wanted to do everything possible to reorganize the people of Guihongmen, rebuild this sect, echo each other, and form a force that no one dared to underestimate.

Of course, what he said to Chen Yilin at the beginning was not a fake. In his opinion, Guihongmen has not died out for 2,000 years, and if it dies under his nose, he will have no face to go to Jiuquan to see Han Zhi.

As an ancient man from the Ming Dynasty, Li Yu was somewhat superstitious. He felt that such a strange thing as traveling through 400 years of time and space could happen to him, presumably God wanted him to take on the responsibility. In his understanding, this kind of great task must be to revitalize Guihongmen and rejuvenate this organization, which has disappeared for more than 60 years, to shine again.

Hearing Li Yu's words, Chen Yilin was silent for a long time and fell into deep thought. He opened this express hotel, although there are elements of fulfilling his father-in-law's long-cherished wish, but making a living from the hotel is also an important reason, or the main reason. Over the years, he has suffered from all kinds of wretchedness, whether it is the black skin on the street, or some moths in the government, they often come to the hotel to extort money, and because he has no backer, he can only laugh with him and let others slaughter.

He remembered that his father-in-law had told him in the past that if Guihongmen was still there, how could these ghosts dare to be so arrogant. He regarded his father-in-law's words as a joke and never took them seriously, because he felt that it was impossible for Guihongmen to make a comeback. However, the young man in front of him pointed him in a direction and gave him a glimmer of hope.

Yes, if you can organize the people of Guihongmen across the country, exchange resources with each other, and rely on each other, won't you be lonely anymore?

"Li Yu, are you serious?" Chen Yilin asked.

"Seriously, of course." Li Yu said.

"So, what do you need me to do?"

"Give me the list you know, and I'll contact them." Li Yu said. (To be continued.) )
