Chapter 13: The Death of the Kingdom (2)
"That's a crime, call the police, right?" I asked.
Lu Zhongguo shook his head: "No, no, no, people's kidnapping is only at the level of planning, and it is not a real kidnapping." At this time, the police called the police, and the police didn't care at all, and we blamed us for reporting false police. Anyway, this matter is a bit tricky, I took 100,000 yuan, and I also want 3 million, I have to choose a good way to get the best of both worlds and kill two birds with one stone. ”
His greed surprised me again, he took 100,000 yuan from the Tank Gang, and coveted the 3 million that Gu Qingcheng promised, but he didn't consider the danger of this matter at all. Moreover, he may well have inadvertently become an accomplice of the Tank Gang, and once he makes a big mistake, then his life will be over.
"I think—"
As soon as I opened my mouth, I was interrupted by Lu Zhongguo: "Don't speak, don't speak, I will also say words full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, I don't need you to teach me." Money is a good thing, and no one can have too much, right? ”
I had to keep my mouth shut and let him think for himself.
Now, I'm still a little worried, since the perfume used by Ming Shui's sleeve is also related to Lei Dongtian, I'm afraid that she is also Lei Dongtian's person. Then, no matter whether the Tank Gang and Lu Zhongguo moved Gu Qingcheng or Mingshui Sleeve, they would anger Lei Dongtian and Thunderbolt Hall, and finally end up with five thunderbolts and no corpses.
Lu Zhongguo is not a bad person, if he can help him and save his life, it can be regarded as a good deed to build a seventh-level floating slaughter.
"You say, let's pretend that nothing has happened, or go to meet with Miss Gu to discuss business, and then whatever happens on the spot, we all pretend to be deaf and dumb, and don't care, how about it?" Lu Zhongguo thought for a long time before he asked with a humble smile.
I sighed: "Whatever, this matter really has nothing to do with me." If possible, I'd rather get out of the car now and stop the car myself to go back to the city. ”
"Hahahaha, how is that possible? Miss Gu's side, if you don't show up, she won't talk to me at all - Mr. Long, we are grasshoppers tied to a thread now, and we can't run away from you or jump on me. Lu Zhongguo laughed again.
I looked forward in silence and said no more.
As Lu Zhongguo said, the Tank Gang wants to kidnap Gu Qingcheng for ransom, which will be a big case that will shock Dunhuang. Once the crime is discovered, the Tank Gang will have no place to stand under the police crackdown. If Gu Tingcheng has three longs and two shorts, then the international image of the entire Dunhuang will be greatly damaged. At this moment, I must not sit idly by, I must take action to put out crime and ensure the safety of Gu Chengcheng and the Belt and Road delegation
I calculated, plus the driver, there were five people in the Mitsubishi. Even with a triple number of people, I can choose the right terrain to launch a swift attack, resolve the fight in seconds, take out all the kidnappers, and quietly defuse the crisis before the crime happens.
Since arriving in Dunhuang, I have done the same thing four times, twice by ambushing the Scorpion Gang and sabotaging their actions to retaliate against the police, and the other two times by attacking the Sand Tyrant Federation in the north of Dunhuang City, forcing them to withdraw from the construction site and hand over the autonomy of the building materials belonging to the real estate developers.
I prefer to act alone now than what I did on Hong Kong Island. In Dunhuang, I can charge at the front line, effectively protect the personal interests of the people, and maintain social peace, which is what a capable Jianghu person should do.
"When the time comes, don't speak, just listen. By the way, the news I said about the 'Jinshan Yinhai Jade Palace' is absolutely true, and it is different from what others said after dinner. My grandfather told my father, and my father told me again that our law family dared to pack tickets, as long as we did what we said, we could enter the 'Jinshan Yinhai Jade Palace' behind the Mogao Grottoes and find the big treasure. Think about it, Miss Gu must be well-informed when she comes from Hong Kong Island, how could she be ready to spend 3 million with a few words from me? The secrets of our law family can only be understood by masters, and usually those who rob tombs and dig graves, old customers who eat black and eat black, and cultural relics with rat eyes can't understand them at all. Would you like to hear it? I'll tell you for free, anyway, you're a painter, not an insider, so even if you understand it, you won't ......be able to do it at all," Lu Zhongguo began to talk to himself again.
In order not to arouse his suspicion, I closed my eyes slightly, shrunk into my seat, and pretended to be exhausted.
"Hey, do you want to hear it? Usually many people can't listen to it when they want to pay for it, but now I will tell you for free, you don't seem to care, you are the person who is holding back in the Mogao Grottoes to paint! Lu Zhongguo couldn't hold his breath, and his muttering voice became higher and higher.
I yawned: "If you want to say it, just say it, don't say pull it down, I'm sleepy." ”
Lu Zhongguo laughed: "You guy, what time are you sleepy?" You painters and literati are wilting and weak all day long, as if a gust of wind can blow you down. Learn from me, eat more roast mutton, drink more spirits, be courageous, and have a bit of manhood...... Okay, I said you listen, if you like to listen or not, if you don't like to listen, just listen while you sleep......"
I nodded, shrunk my neck again, and still didn't say a word.
"This matter started when Sun Dianying cut off my grandfather's head before digging Tangling—" Lu Zhongguo said.
Just listening to this beginning, probably many people will laugh dumbly. Sun Dianying is known as the "Tanglin Thief" in history, and Yuan Shikai, the "thief of the country" back then, has become a stinking generation for thousands of years.
The peerless treasures obtained by Sun Dianying after stealing Tanglin were loaded into seven military trucks, not including the damaged ancient precious calligraphy and paintings, porcelain vases, gold and silver ornaments, silk and satin, and heavy wood products. Since this person dared to risk the world's disapproval to excavate Dongling, it was naturally impossible to put the unwarranted treasures of Dunhuang in the far west.
"My grandfather was a tomb robber, and he was well-known in the north of Chang'an and south of Xinjiang. The distant ancestor of our law family is the Yelu clan of the royal family of the Great Liao State, the authentic roots, the bloodline, the family is still a big family in the Yuan Dynasty, and was once named a thousand households by Kublai Khan, with titles and fiefs, and the family is like a cloud. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in order to avoid government persecution, he changed his surname to law, acted in a low-key manner, and blended into the people. My old grandpa's grandpa...... Hey, let's put it simply, my family used to be very rich, but in the end, my grandfather became a tomb robber with his ability to identify cultural relics and come and go. At that time, tomb robbers were considered superior people in the eighteen lines of thieves, and they were still very respected in the rivers and lakes. Sun Dianying is one of the five tiger generals under the account of Zhang Zuolin, the king of the Northeast, in order to raise military salaries and recruit troops, he thought of the way to rob the tomb, so he invited my grandfather to the barracks, treated as a guest, and asked the grandfather to show the way, to dig the 'Jinshan Yinhai Jade Palace' in Mogao Grottoes. He didn't know that at that time, my grandfather had been recruited by the Southern Revolutionary Party and listed as one of the one hundred and eight generals of the Old League, and the reason why he agreed to Sun Dianying's invitation was to infiltrate the military camp and wait for the opportunity to assassinate Zhang Zuolin, the king of the Northeast. At that time, in order to win Sun Dianying's trust, he carried a treasure with him, which was the 'Chai Wangye's Danshu Iron Coupon Amulet' that had been mentioned many times in operas and commentaries. With this thing, Sun Dianying can be convinced that there is a treasure in the Mogao Grottoes. Hey, you know this baby, right? In order to make up for the brothers, he issued this Danshu iron coupon, and ordered the world that as long as the family holds this treasure, no matter how the descendants do the traitor, they will all be exempt from death......."
Anyone who has read history knows that the Northern Song Dynasty Danshu Iron Coupon is the only kind of "nobles from death" talisman in history, which elevates the status of the founding fathers to a position almost as high as the royal family. After the iron-faced and selfless Kaifeng Mansion Bao Longtu tried to behead the father who committed a heinous crime, he was also blocked by the Danshu iron coupon, and could only be released in court after scolding the criminal for 20 years.
When descendants recount the exploits of their ancestors, most of them will whitewash the peace and exalt their ancestors. What the king of the Northeast did back then was despised by the righteous people in the world, so the old alliance would issue a "kill order" to him. Back then, there was a saying in the rivers and lakes that "if you want to kill Zhang Zuolin, first get rid of the five tiger generals", so what Lu Zhongguo said, although the clouds and mountains are foggy, but its logic is no problem.
Sun Dianying was overjoyed when he saw the Danshu Iron Coupon, and immediately ordered the troops to surround the Mogao Grottoes, and at the same time telegraphed to the King of the Northeast, asking him to personally preside over the ceremony of opening the 'Jinshan Yinhai Jade Palace'. During the war years, if there is money, there will be soldiers, and if there are soldiers, there will be power, and the king of the Northeast, like Yuan Shikai, covets the emperor's position. If you take the treasure of the Mogao Grottoes, it will not be far from his dream of ascending the throne......" Lu Zhongguo said this, and sighed faintly, "Heroes are born in troubled times, and every hero and hero of that era wants to be the emperor, sit in the world, and want to leave a name in history." Like now, in a peaceful and prosperous world, everyone wants to make a lot of money and live a good life, with a single goal, which is much easier. ”
I turned slightly and looked into his face.
At this moment, Lu Zhongguo's expression was very peculiar, there was no worry and anxiety at all, let alone fear and apprehension, but a "leisurely yearning for it".
As far as I know, after the fall of the Great Liao Kingdom, the descendants of the Yelu clan raised troops several times to revive the Great Liao, rebuild the capital in the northwest, and fight against the Great Yuan Dynasty. It's a pity that the Yuan Dynasty is the most powerful in the history of the world, the most powerful country, the most murderous era of foreign governance, Yelu is still fierce compared with the Han people, but compared with the Mongolian people, it has become a chicken fighting eagle. In the end, none of the Yelu clan's soldiers were spared, all of them were wiped out, and the remaining children were all incognito and scattered among the people.
This is not a fabrication by a writer, but a real history written by a historian, which can be found in any set of Song history, Yuan history, and Ming history.
Historical data can be checked, after Jin destroyed Liao, he frantically retaliated against the Khitans, especially the extermination system for the members of the royal family surnamed Yelu, and some of the remaining descendants of the Yelu clan accepted the arrangement of the Jin State and changed their surnames to Yira; In order to avoid war and unwillingness, some people changed their surnames to other surnames and scattered into three parts, one is the Fuxin Ye clan in Liaoning, the other is the Daur Lu clan, and the other is the surname A and Mang in Baoshan area of Yunnan.
