"The honey of this, the arsenic of the other".

Different people have different opinions on the same thing, Chen Mu knows this truth, after all, he likes to be reasonable.

But he couldn't figure it out about this matter.

Qingchang is obviously a person who is very happy, and Chen Mu can always bring him credit in the past, and he does not hesitate to accept it.

This time it was clearly a great credit, and he didn't even need to pay anything, but Qingchang didn't want to accept it, and he didn't even want to see such a result, why is this?

"Let me go, you general, you will not accept such a result, or rather, he will not dare to accept such a result at all!"

Trio became relaxed.

Chen Mu hesitated for a moment, but in the end he still gave Yang Dachun a look and let go of Trio.

"Tell me, why is this happening?"

Trio moved his hands, feet, and neck, as if he had just been freed from the foot of the Five Fingers Mountain.

"Just imagine, as a general of Guangzhou, he captured me, the consul, and it should be a great credit to you, but you don't know that the Japanese army is invading the Shandong Peninsula, and your court is not capable of opening up a second battlefield."

"In other words, if I am captured and France is annoyed, France will unite with the armies of other countries, and even if the Shandong Peninsula cannot be saved, other regions will also start wars!"

"When the time comes, instead of being a hero who defends his family and country, he will become a sinner for the ages who will accelerate the country's demise!"

Chen Mu suddenly realized, he finally understood why Qingchang didn't want to see this.

But he still did not understand that if he was afraid of this, would the French be able to do whatever they wanted. So what's the point of his resistance?

Trio saw Chen Mu's confusion and continued to explain to Chen Mu.

"Sometimes, war without gunpowder is more brutal than reality, and this is the power of international public opinion, and when it comes to foreign affairs, your country is like a baby, without any ability to confront."

"It's not that I'm discriminating against you, that's the case, you can't understand these things at your level, of course, if you go out to see the outside world and broaden your horizons, maybe you can understand."

Chen Mu really didn't understand, Qingchang should understand this truth, so he just defended and was beaten passively, but did not take the initiative to attack.

He was going to be beaten until the French army lost their temper, let them retreat on their own, even if they counterattacked, they couldn't go too far, this was a war that was doomed from the beginning without any victory!

"So, you will let me go, and I will not make any compensation, this incident will be treated as if it never happened, whether you believe it or not, things will eventually develop like this."

After Trio said this, he said to Isabella, "Let's go." ”

Yang Dachun's pupils contracted, and he tightened the handle of the knife in his hand, but Chen Mu shook his head.

Trio turned his head to Chen Mu and said: "This is no longer the world of your martial artists, the sooner you recognize this world, the sooner you can get rid of this life, you are a smart person, I advise you to take a walk around the outside world." ”

Trio walked away, and the soldiers outside entered the room and took François's body away.

Chen Mu was speechless for a long time, and the others were more aggrieved than the others.

Below the restaurant, Qingchang's people have already evacuated, and the people are watching Trio leave, these defenders are not so much defensive as "escorting" Trio away!

After a long time, those people did not disperse, Chen Mu finally gritted his teeth and said to everyone: "Go back......"

They walked out of the restaurant, there was a mess outside, the bodies of foreigners had been taken away, and the scene had been cleaned by Qingchang, only the ruins and the fire that had not yet been extinguished, lonely and pitiful proof that this war happened and did not happen.

Chen Mu saw Huang Feihong, and he was in the crowd of people.

Huang Hansen is the one who witnessed the whole process, and his grievances are more uncomfortable than his injuries.

Huang Feihong said to the people behind him: "It's over, let's go back." ”

The low mood spreads, and no one can lift the spirits.

Chen Mu has been thinking about a question, whether Trio really shot Chen Qiyou, or just to prevent François from continuing to torture Chen Qiyou.

It is said that François had no reason to deceive Chen Mu at that time, and Trio was not afraid that Chen Mu would seek revenge on him, perhaps this is the truth.

But Chen Mu couldn't listen to one-sided words, let alone Trio's words.

He won't take revenge for revenge's sake, but it's unlikely that this matter will be investigated.

Change what can be changed, if you can't change it, then you can only adapt.

But Chen Mu couldn't adapt to it.

No more witnesses may be found, but at least there is one person who knows the truth best.

That's Trio.

Chen Mu believes that his bond with Trio is not over yet, and sooner or later, he will know the truth and decide whether to kill Trio or not.

Maybe that's a good thing, too.

With Trio, an undetermined factor, Chen Mu will not let go of everything because of revenge, let alone lose the motivation to live!

Chen Mu did not return to the church, but followed Huang Feihong back to Baozhilin.

The matter cannot be hidden, everyone can see it, and there is no need to hide it, and someone will soon find it.

They didn't visit Chen Mu, but silently joined the team of repairing Bao Zhilin.

This can be regarded as a recognition of Chen Mu.

The official did not accept and recognize Chen Mu's contribution, but they, the people, would not be stingy with this respect!

Their abilities are limited, and they can't give Chen Mu any reward.

Their actions were simple and direct, and Chen Mu could be regarded as having some comfort.

Qingchang also sent someone over and invited Chen Mu to the General's Mansion to talk about things, but Chen Mu was very interested and politely declined the invitation.

The aftermath of events was exactly as Trio had predicted.

There were no formal meetings, no explanations, no reparations.

Some of them were just a dispensable rumor, saying that a group of foreign soldiers had a misunderstanding with the officers and men after the thieves who had robbed the merchant ships, and that some conflicts had occurred, and that the matter had been properly handled through friendly consultations between the two sides.

Such a statement obviously cannot compensate for the harm done to the people, both materially and spiritually.

The newly appointed Deshou issued a series of decrees to compensate those who suffered losses in the conflict.

Even the most politically insensitive people can feel that the government is trying to minimize the impact of this incident.

Chen Mu didn't bother with this matter.

He needs to bury Lu Shengwu.

"Senior brother, before the master lost his breath, he only said half of the words, saying that he was not actually surnamed Lu, do you know the origin?"

I thought Huang Feihong would know, but unfortunately, Huang Feihong couldn't answer this question.

"Master Lu Tianshi was born more than 20 years ago, but he is both good and evil, and he doesn't have many friends, so if you want to know about his life, you can only find Master Lin Fucheng......"

Chen Mu didn't ask any more questions, buried Lu Shengwu according to the rules, and kept filial piety for three days, which can be regarded as calming down.

During this period, Qingchang sent someone to invite, but seeing that Chen Mu was dealing with the funeral, he gave up.

Chen Mu didn't want to listen to Qingchang's high-minded talk, he was no longer interested in the affairs of the court.

Of course, Qingchang may not be here to explain anything, the reason why he came to invite Chen Mu, in the final analysis, still needs Chen Mu's help.

Although they tried their best to suppress the influence of this incident, the students of the various universities, as well as people of insight, had already spread the word about it, and even in the north, they had heard about it.

Many foreign students and cultural people began to run around, and even went to the government to petition, hoping that they could show their confidence to ask Trio for compensation, and even expel the French!

The people have long been unable to suppress it, this emotion is like the heat in a steamer, the tighter the lid is covered, the more boiling it is, and the more fierce the resistance!

The bell must be tied to the bell, perhaps Qingchang saw Chen Mu's role in this matter, and also saw Chen Mu's prestige in the eyes of the people.

In his opinion, as long as Chen Mu came forward to help, he would definitely be able to suppress the people's grievances.

Chen Mu couldn't figure out what was going on in the court, but he could still see through Qingchang's mentality.

There may be overall considerations in this matter, but Chen Mu can't let go of it after all.

If even the most basic dignity cannot be guaranteed, and taking care of the overall situation in exchange for humiliation, why should such an overall situation be taken into account?

Han Xin can endure the humiliation of his crotch, and the big husband can bend and stretch, such a great truth, after all, can only be used once or twice, and cannot be used every time.

The humiliation of the crotch can be endured, but if you endure it every time, you are a minion, not a hero.

Chen Mu was disheartened, so he just sorted out Lu Shengwu's relics and passed on the yin and yang part of the Yin and Yang Ginseng Xuangong to the Red Lotus.

Although they cultivated together, he cultivated the Pure Yang Department, and the Zhenyin Method was not practiced by Lu Sheng, and Chen Mu had no experience to refer to, so he could only let Honglian explore it by herself.

Fortunately, Honglian has a very high level of comprehension, and has practiced internal kung fu, and she is a woman, and she has a connection with Chen Mu, so her cultivation is progressing rapidly.

I don't know if it's the reason for *, or if yin and yang are the same as Xuangong, the two get along day and night, and they don't distinguish each other.

On this day, Chen Mu had just finished practicing and planned to go out for a walk with Honglian.

There was a lot of commotion in the streets, students and cultural people printed a lot of lists, spread out and preached everywhere, and the officials and officers and soldiers peeped in the dark, and the whole city of Guangzhou was not peaceful.

Many people stayed outside Baozhilin all day long, and like Qingchang, they all wanted to invite Chen Mu out of the mountain.

But the purpose is diametrically opposite.

Qingchang hopes that Chen Mu can come out to calm public opinion, and these people hope that Chen Mu can come forward and denounce the cowardice of the government!

Chen Mu couldn't go too far, so he could only sneak out of the back door of Bao Zhilin and go to the river to blow the wind.

Honglian's appearance is too amazing, so she wears a Western lady's gauze hat, Chen Mu also wears a gentleman's hat, the brim is low, she changes into a suit, and takes a civilized stick, so no one dares to come forward to talk, and naturally no one will recognize it.

But after only walking a while, there was a clanging sound in front of me.

But when he saw an old Taoist priest, he walked over slowly.

This Taoist priest is also eccentric, although he is wearing a Taoist robe, holding a "flat gold", and writing: "Happy to know the destiny of heaven, so do not worry", but he is holding a tiger support in his hand, and shaking it on the ground.

This tiger brace is a hand rattle, it is said that the medicine king Sun Simiao collected medicine in the mountains, was injured by the tiger to block the way to seek medical treatment, Sun Simiao used the copper ring on the flat shoulder to support the tiger's mouth and teeth, cured the tiger, so it is called the tiger brace.

You Yilang held this tiger brace in his hand, as a sign of practicing medicine, firstly, to attract attention, and secondly, to explain that he had inherited Sun Simiao's medical skills and medical ethics.

Chen Mu only glanced at it, but the Taoist priest stopped and said to Chen Mu.

"This brother, you are in a big disaster!"
