Chapter 261: The Lofty Ideal Hidden in the Heart
There are dozens of trucks parked in the backyard of the inn, and most of the drivers are sleeping under the carriage, which is also a good way to prevent theft.
Li Guolou stood alone behind a carriage to be on duty in the first half of the night, the cold was very heavy at night, his whole body was wrapped in a sheepskin coat, he still felt cold, the moon shadow was sparse, the strange black shadow was printed on the ground, the loneliness made people miss the warm quilt, Li Guolou looked down at the shadow on the ground, this is the road he chose, and he will be accompanied by the cold night in the future.
During the long night, my mind was a little distracted, and suddenly the inn in front of me was noisy, and some people quarreled loudly.
Li Guolou stood still, still sticking to his post, and the people in the carriage next to him also cheered up, not daring to be careless.
"Xiao Li, the big shopkeeper told you to go." A young catcher, excited, ran over.
Hiding outside the inn, five guards were arrested, caught a guy who slipped out of the inn in the middle of the night, and was carried into a guest room next to the lobby with his whole body strapped.
Ye Kai, the innkeeper, was also alarmed, and his fat body was in a hurry, and he just happened to persuade the two pretending to be convoy guards to arrest and let go of the buddy Yang Deshu.
"Guest officer, I know you have a lot of rules, but in the middle of the night, don't make noise with other merchants, if you have something to discuss, let Xiao Yang go first." Ye Kai went around in a circle to give more than a dozen guards around him, he was an old man in the rivers and lakes, and when he saw a group of people, he knew that it was not authentic, the rules were so strict, and they were all young people, not officers and soldiers, he was just pretending to be stupid and had no way to break it, as long as he walked the rivers and lakes, everyone could see that this horse team was extraordinary.
Yang Deshu, a thin eagle-nosed guy tied into a zongzi, had a slap handprint on his face, but he still had a hard mouth, and shouted: "What's wrong with me, I have my own home, I can leave if I want, and I can stay if I want to stay!" ”
"Palm." Li Guolou became angry when he heard it, and deliberately made a loud noise in the middle of the night, and he would not be soft-hearted if he was killed.
Sun Yue took out an iron ruler and hit it with yin energy, knocking out two of Yang Deshu's teeth with five swings, and his face was swollen like a high-legged steamed bun.
"*** Xiong, we made it clear when we entered the store, no one is allowed to leave if we don't leave, and if you have a sharp blade, you are not a good person, and you will be killed by screaming." Sun Yue took a sharp blade from Yang Deshu's body and handed it to Li Guolou.
Yang Deshu "Woo woo. "Moan, tears burst out of my eyes, I understand that I don't dare to be mad anymore when I meet unreasonably.
Gao Yao Wuyun originally slept in the inn, and the noise woke her up, uninvited, showed a stunt and flew up, kicked Yang Deshu's lower abdomen, raised his eyebrows, and used a trick to catch and scare people, and shouted: "Stinky boy, give you a chance, who do you want to report to whom, otherwise the next kick will cut off your roots and make you a eunuch for the rest of your life!" ”
Fat leaves open "plop." He knelt on the ground and cried: "The official doesn't care about Xiao Yang's affairs, we have rules here, there are strangers passing by, we have to go and inform the owner of the Maple Forest House, otherwise the consequences will be very serious, and we will have no choice but to eat!" ”
"What kind of people are in the Maple Grove House?" Gao Yao Wuyun excitedly pulled out the musket at his waist, scary, not angry.
"Oh, Maple Grove House is a group of heroes, they bought the original Maple Grove House owner's house at a low price, and then occupied that house, and our merchants here all teach them protection money." Ye Kai didn't dare to say more, for fear of retaliation.
"How many people." Gao Yao Wuyun asked.
"Hmm······ About thirty or forty people, our mayor here, Huang Xiang, turned a blind eye, and should be in the same league with them. "Ye Kai squeezed out secrets, without the protection of the government, these merchants can only be slaughtered.
Sun Yue shook her head at Li Guolou, indicating that this was the case, and the Tianzihao Intelligence Network did not know about this matter yet.
Li Guolou knew that they had planted evil results here, and many places near Jingshi used to be the territory of the Axe Gang, but since the Axe Gang was severely cracked down by the government, the members of the Axe Gang left their hometowns and fled from the vicinity of Jingshi.
After interrogation, I learned that the name of the eldest brother of this underworld member is "Shake Head Lion" Apsa, which belongs to a sect of Buddhism side to the "Congenital Dao", which is a very popular sect in the countryside pretending to be a god and playing ghosts. Buddhism was merged.
The Innate Dao is more or less related to the White Lotus Sect, and it can also be said that the "Innate Dao" as a Xing sect draws nourishment from other sects and absorbs some of the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, such as the same belief in Maitreya Buddha, and the White Lotus Sect is a link between the previous and the next.
Li Guolou was upset when he heard this, this kind of folk sect believes in countless poor people, as long as the government does not characterize them as rebels and allows the "Congenital Dao" to spread the teachings, he cannot easily offend the members of this sect, the power of faith is infinite, the Congenital Taoists dare not rebel, but they dare to **, break their stomachs and commit suicide, the "Congenital Dao" disciples run to the yamen to do this kind of thing, and any official will also be involved, so the local officials let this kind of believers go unchecked, as long as there is no rebellion, "oppression of women" will be left alone.
The gang is very terrible to put on the cloak of a sect, the Little Knife Society is composed of members of the "Heaven and Earth Society" Hong Gang, a powerful sect can compete with the government, all dynasties have encountered this kind of thing, the government generally uses the "oppression of women" trick to deal with this kind of sect, as long as this kind of sect has "oppressed women" This kind of thing happens, it will be infinitely magnified, and this kind of sect will be rectified to death.
How can other gangsters be allowed to come uninvited, and how can others be allowed to sleep soundly under the couch, Li Guolou touched his nose and thought about it, there is no such thing as oppressing women, and he also has to catch the vicious handle of "oppressing women", not to mention that thirty or forty big men will get together and have few desires, and there must be filth and dirt in the maple forest house.
Li Guolou shook his head and asked the boss Ye Kai to leave, and said: "Forget Boss Ye, there is a lot of misunderstanding, the master of Fenglin House, I will send someone to pay a visit, it is you who are not following the rules first, we are also asking for your own attention in this matter, you bring Xiao Yang into the room!" ”
The boss Ye Kai was dumb and had a hard time, so he had no choice but to help Yang Deshu out of the room, and there was nowhere to complain, the consequence was that he was looking for himself, and he was annoyed that there was a hidden dog guard outside the store.
Li Guolou ordered: "Immediately notify the people behind you, there is a situation here, don't move the innate path now."
"Shake your head lion" Apsa, wait until we come back, Sun Yue, tomorrow you bring five hundred taels of silver to visit "Shake Head Lion" Apsa, don't say more, just talk about the love of the rivers and lakes! ”
Sun Yue's thin face was serious, and she hugged her fists and saluted: "Pierce!" ”
Gao Yao Wuyun used to be a member of the benevolent and righteous community, although he broke away from this patriotic society, but he hated the "Congenital Dao" in his heart, and when he saw Li Guolou walking to the backyard after explaining the task, he couldn't help but follow, and said: "Head, such a cheap Congenital Dao, who will listen to you outside the Jingshi in the future!" ”
Li Guolou took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and said with a smile: "Oh······ It's the second half of the night, Miss Gao Yao, you are in such good spirits, you have to keep your eyes open. After speaking, Li Guolou turned around and went back to the guest room to sleep, and hung Gao Yao's dark clouds at the door of the backyard.
Gao Yao Wuyun opened his mouth wide and scolded at Li Guolou's back, "shell lang, what do you have to do, if you weren't rich and powerful, your aunt would have voted for another lord a long time ago." No one could hear what she was talking about, and after muttering a few words to herself, Gao Yao Wuyun consciously stood where Li Guolou stood.
Li Guolou and clothes sleep on the bunk, where can I sleep, so many things happened on the first night out of the city, there are snoring all around, it is not easy to share weal and woe with his subordinates, since he was a child, he has lived in fine clothes and jade food, the beautiful wife and mother at home, the corrupt heart is rich and glorious, and it is easy to overcome many difficulties if he has the ideal of serving the country, he has a resolute ambition, no matter how difficult it is.
Li Guolou thinks that many people are the Mongolian prince Zeng Greenqin, this is a god of war in his heart, as the county king Zeng Greenqin can be pampered, and he is in a safe place in the rear to command his subordinates to fight, but Zeng Greenqin is in danger every time, and the soldiers advance and retreat together.
This is his driving force, he will never be invaded by money and beauties to serve the country, men should be self-reliant, make money, be promoted, and tend to be attached to the power not for fame and fortune, but for great ideals, just to serve the motherland, hide the inner heat will always break out, the dark reality makes him only have to fornicate with shameless people, Li Guolou does not want to wait until he is in his forties and fifties to be reused by the imperial court, he wants to be famous at a young age, and use his political achievements and money to sit in a high position.
Although Li Guolou has Li Hongzhang's huge power behind him, Li Guolou knows very well in his heart that he is not Li Hongzhang's grandson, and he will follow Li Hongzhang step by step, and he will not reach the height of his uncle Li Hongzhang in his life, so Li Guolou has found another way to find a shortcut, hoping to one day change the decaying Qing Empire and rejuvenate the Qing Empire.
Hiding his lofty ideals Li Guolou never showed people, and if he didn't do things, talking too much was empty talk, he only let others see his ability, the sun and the moon are changing in the world, and no one can see it clearly, but he can see the future and don't take the ordinary road of life.
The hardships will be overcome, and the smell of stinky feet is not concerned, brown rice can also be swallowed, Li Guolou closed his eyes, his mind drifted to the big bed at home, and he lay down lightly, sleeping so comfortably.
Fei Lingxue came out of the bedroom, glanced at it and turned back, she was startled, "Xiao Li" team actually hid dozens of masters in the rivers and lakes, and she could command so many people in the rivers and lakes, she already knew who "Xiao Li" was, the fake foreign devil in the criminal department, and his private life was notorious, but the rivers and lakes knew that the "fake foreign devil" was not easy to mess with, who provoked the fake foreign devil to make a big move, Fei Lingxue already had an idea in her heart, it was none of her business, she was waiting to see a good show,
