Chapter 213: Seeking Scripture for the Strength and Prosperity of Our Country (1)
"The original intention of the establishment of the Yellow Flower Society was 'to fight for the strength and prosperity of our country', this sentence is written on the wall of the medal room of the headquarters. Our country is China. Only when China is strong and prosperous will it come out of the shadow of the Eight-Nation Alliance powers, stand tall in Asia, and never fall. Over the years, no matter how the gangs outside view the Yellow Flower Society, this original intention has never changed. The general said.
I have read a lot of history books and can understand the purpose of the establishment of the Yellow Flower Society.
During World War II, as long as the gang was "anti-Japanese", it was collectively called the "United Anti-Japanese Front"; As long as it is a team that fights for China's strength, it is a real Chinese.
"Now, that's changed." Without waiting for me to ask a question, the general answered it himself.
"The only thing that can solve your confusion is to go to Guantanamo Motten Submarine Iron Prison, meet the top management of the Yellow Flower Society, and let them answer you personally." I say.
This is a joke, Guantanamo is thousands of miles away from Dunhuang, and even if you get to that place, you can't enter the heavily guarded undersea iron prison.
"Mr. Long, I feel much better with you by my side." The general said.
I shook my head in time to stop her from continuing.
No matter how bad the situation may be, it is impossible for me to accompany her to Japan and involve myself in another treacherous imperial struggle.
That's the general's mission, not mine.
That's the main battlefield of the Yellow Flower Society, and it's not mine.
The general frowned deeply, and covered his chest with his right hand, as if he was very unwell.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked.
"I have only one word...... Mr. Long, I only want to ask you one thing, if I am not a general but Jade Fox Zen, if Jade Fox Zen invites you to return to the Japanese Imperial Family, will you agree? The general gazed at me affectionately, his eyes unblinking, waiting for my answer.
"No, it won't." I replied with all my heart.
There is no "if" in the world, so any answer is only responsible for the general's current question, and Jade Fox Chan will never have a chance to hear it.
"Okay, okay." The general bit his lip and sat down slowly, "In this case, after this battle, we will go our separate ways. β
Although this decision is helpless, it is also the result of having to face.
Suddenly the rooster crows in the yard of the neighbor's house to the west, and the window turns white, and the morning light is approaching.
Zha Ye and they didn't come over, which was a bit surprising.
According to my inference, they also had nothing to do about Zhao Tan's concussion, so they could only let Zhao Tan recuperate while talking about business.
For those old rivers and lakes, solving problems has never been an unusual way, all kinds of means, all kinds of extremes, as long as the goal can be achieved.
I suspect that they can't handle Zhao Tan's capricious babbling, so they kick this burden back, and when the general and I solve the problem, they will go out and plunder the fruits of our labor.
No matter how dire the situation, I never asked Meng Qiao for help.
Although her fighting skills, marksmanship, judgment, and driving skills are all excellent enough to take charge on her own, I don't want to put her in danger, but would rather carry it myself.
In the orphanage, when I first formed an alliance with Meng Qiao, I swore to the emperor that I would protect Meng Qiao in this life and never let her be hurt by accident.
I have no relatives, and Moncho is my only relative. Protecting her is my most important responsibility and a benchmark for me to measure my personal abilities.
At dawn, I arranged for the general to go to sleep and sit alone on the couch in the living room.
I set the air conditioner at 20 degrees Celsius and it was getting cooler and cooler inside. Only in this way will I not doze off and stay awake at all times.
Regarding concussion, I have a home remedy, which was joked by Sun Jiuchen, the head of the Sun's Medical Centre, the most famous Chinese medicine family on Hong Kong Island, before the banquet, and no one else took it seriously, but I remembered all the details.
"A concussion is like a clock falling to the ground, and the hour, minute, and second hands are mixed together, and no one can move. The three needles are all going to move forward, but the speed is different, and after they are mixed together, they affect each other, and no one can go well. I wanted to push them away, but I was blocked by the watchman, and I couldn't reach out or insert the tweezers at all, and all the movements were itching through the boots. Then, the key to treatment is to adopt the method of 'giving back to the other body', and use the second reverse vibration action to shake the three watch hands back in the opposite direction. This method of 'shaking', whether it is loud, or slamming, or deep stabbing, is not sure which method will work. This is almost Sun Jiuchen's original words, and the people at the table laughed at him for talking nonsense when he was drunk, haha, and laughed, but they didn't take it seriously.
I have seen some real cases in Perak Hall before, where someone shot at a companion's ear, and the gunfire was so loud that the companion's ear was directly deaf, and it was never repaired.
"It's time to take the plunge." I told myself.
After thinking about it maturely, I unscrewed it*, stuck the short gun in my waist, and went straight to Zhao Tan's room.
Every house here has a basement, and the basement is about the same size as the ground house. Otherwise, there is only one floor of the bungalow, and the usable area is too small.
My basement is a little different from other people's homes, and I have done top-of-the-line multi-layer sound insulation, which is occasionally used for gun testing.
In Dunhuang, Meng Qiao and I couldn't use firearms, but we couldn't lose the feel of shooting. So, we spend a day or two a month in the basement practicing our guns.
The fist does not leave the hand, and the song does not leave the mouth. This is an ancient adage that cannot be ignored.
Zhao Tan was still sleeping, his body curled up, and he slept very deeply.
"Authentic Southern Song Dynasty emperor's lineage?" I know that if these words were told to modern people, they would immediately be ridiculed.
Since ancient times, China has had a saying that "bloodline is only the theory", and whether bloodline is important or not has been the first basis for identifying whether offspring are worth anything.
If Zhao Tan is really a descendant of the Southern Song Dynasty, then his identity is as unique as Zhao Gou of the "Mud Horse Crossing Kang King".
Back then, Zhao Gou fled from the five northern cities to Jiangnan single-handedly, and with a shout, four soldiers and horses rushed to King Qin.
It's a pity that Zhao Tan was born in the wrong era, if he could have been born in the Mengyuan period, he might also take advantage of the situation, make a great career, and become a hero in troubled times, with the special identity of "the descendant of the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty" and Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Youliang and others.
Born in modern times, there is no value. Moreover, if you want to prove his relationship with the royal family of the Two Song Dynasty, you have to compare DNA to be sure. Now, where can we find the accurate DNA of the descendants of the two Song Zhao families?
I didn't wake Zhao Tan up immediately, but dragged a chair, sat down across the bed, and quietly observed him.
Lao Guo called Zhao Tan a "liar" at first, but I believe that these words were used to deceive me and the general.
He must have had an in-depth conversation with Cha Ye, but there was a little disagreement on the price. Therefore, when Zha Ye went downstairs, Aunt Zha sent a text message, saying that it could be "500 million transactions".
"Zhao Tan is of great valueβ" This can be absolutely certain.
"Scorched Wood...... Scorched wood, I know, scorched wood is scorched wood, there is no other implication, finding scorched wood is the key, you must find it...... The secret of the strength of a great country lies in Jiaomu. I understand that I have been studying for so many years to get through ...... Ren Du two pulses, open the eyes of heaven, and look for ...... Not in Japan, not in Japan, not in Japan at all......" Zhao Tan said intermittently in his dream, and finally sat up suddenly, his hands stretched forward, as if he wanted to grasp something.
At this moment, his eyes were still closed, and his hands reached as far as he could reach the tips of his toes.
"Outside the mountain, outside the building, the warm wind is smoked, and the tourists are drunk...... Where is that? Where exactly? Jiaomu is Jiaomu, Dunhuang Tianji is Dunhuang Tianji, Jiaomu's existence is to prove one thing, we must believe in Dunhuang Tianji, only it is the only truth in this world...... Beware of the Japanese, beware of the Japanese......" He muttered a dozen sentences, suddenly leaned back, and the snoring sounded again.
Zhao Tan was just sleepwalking, and he couldn't see my existence at all, but I found some clues from his dreams.
"Outside the mountain, Qingshan Lou Wailou, West Lake singing and dancing when will it be off. The warm breeze smokes the tourists drunk, and mistakenly takes Hangzhou as Bianzhou. This poem is written in Hangzhou, that is, after the "mud horse crossing King Kang", the small court of Lin'an set up by King Kang Zhao Gou. The poet used "warm wind, drunkenness, and mistakes" to satirize the Southern Song Dynasty court for only caring about personal well-being, forgetting the "shame of Jingkang" that happened in Bianjing.
Zhao Tan said this poem in a dream, which seemed to refer to "Jiao Mu is related to Lin'an".
Since it is a dream, it will naturally be incompatible, which will confuse the listener.
Zhao Tan turned over, his face was facing the wall, curled up hard, and fell asleep again.
The Yellow Flower Society is a big intercontinental gang, in order to support the operation of such a huge system, it must have been a wide range of talents before, and many strange people in the rivers and lakes were able to join it with various purposes, such as Zuo Fengshou, Zhao Tan and others.
"Legacy? The lineage of the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty - inherited to Zhao Tan's generation, and will definitely continue to be inherited below...... By the way, where is Zhao Tan's inheritance? Where is his next generation? That's his biggest weakness. As long as you grasp his weakness, anything is easy to talk about. "A glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, and the word "lineage" was associated with "inheritance", and "the legacy of the two Song Dynasty royal families" and other key issues.
Zhao Tan is our prisoner, but it is impossible for him to cooperate willingly by dealing with the problem only by the relationship between the guards and the prisoners.
I don't know what method Cha Ye used to get a confession, the problem is that if you can't trust Zhao Tan's words, what he said may be false information and lead everyone astray.
Or rather, he was simply faking a concussion to escape the torture of others.
Instead of continuing with the plan, I slowly withdrew and returned to the living room.
At the moment, if Zhao Tan's social relations can be investigated clearly, even if he said ninety-nine lies in a hundred sentences, there is still one truth left, which can be traced back to the source and restore his original appearance.
I spent four hours in silent thought, until the general got out of bed rubbing his sleepy eyes.
"If you are the descendant of the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, what is the most important lesson you have learned after thousands of years of war and chaos?" I asked.
The general poured a glass of water, drank it all, and thought for a while before trying to answer: "It may be 'do everything possible to live', or it may be 'create conditions for the next generation to live well'." β
"The lineage is very important to them, and in order to ensure the purity of the bloodline, they will definitely consider the issue of choosing a mate and having the next generation. I'm thinking, grab Zhao Tan's sore spot and force him to cooperate with us. I said.
The general's face was happy: "That's true, it's not easy to pass on the lineage, and they will probably have to consider this issue in their lifetime." Okay, I'll call and collect Zhao Tan's fake information first. β
I didn't continue to express my opinion because the excessive long exams had already consumed a lot of my brain cells and needed to take a break.
"You're tired, go get some sleep, I'll keep an eye on you." The general said.
