In the seventh year of Tongzhi, which was also the fourth year of Keio in Japan, the Japanese emperor changed the Yuan Meiji era and promulgated the edict of "Five Certificates Retro", and began to implement the "Meiji Restoration".

However, this vigorous reform movement was quickly overshadowed by a small place called "Sakai".

Sakai City is located in central Osaka and is small but lively.

One day in early March, lonely French soldiers left their warship, the Dubre, intending to go ashore for merry.

In their eyes, they are civilized people, and the Japanese are just uncivilized yellow monkeys, and they go ashore to play, which is already the glory of the Japanese.

However, the Japanese have always had a xenophobic national atmosphere of "arrogance", and it is impossible to welcome these French soldiers.

Sakai's Tosa Domain's Rokuban Brigade was dispatched, and the captain, Mioura Inonoyoshi, ordered the French soldiers to retreat to the warship on the grounds that the people were being disturbed.

Instead of following the instructions, the French soldiers cursed and clashed because of the language barrier.

Mioura Inonoyoshi, a samurai in the spirit of old-school bushido, immediately arrested a French soldier.

However, instead of being afraid, the French took advantage of the chaos and snatched the flag of the Rokuban team.

The flag symbolized dignity and glory, and the samurai were instantly enraged and went on a killing spree, killing and wounding eleven French soldiers.

The French were furious and began to hold the Japanese government accountable.

When one of their priests died in the Great Qing Kingdom, they dared to unite with other countries and launch a war of aggression, not to mention that eleven soldiers were killed this time!

The Japanese government has just implemented the Meiji Restoration, and it wants to be a civilized person, a prosperous and strong country, and has learned the lessons of the Great Qing Kingdom next door.

The French, however, went too far and made three demands.

The first two demands are also normal, one is to let the representatives of the Japanese government board the warship to make amends, the second is to pay reparations, and the third point is extremely inconsistent with their status as civilized people, that is, let the Japanese pay for their lives!

The Japanese government had no choice but to agree, arrested the 20 team members who fired the gun that day, pronounced the death sentence, and collectively cut the stomach in front of the French!

In front of the main hall of Myokokuji Temple, the captain Minaura Inokichi took the lead and cut a cross up and down with a short knife on the ribs, left and right, although his face was distorted and the pain was extreme, but his eyes were full of perseverance!

When the sword-wielding sukeo wanted to cut off his head and end the seppuku ceremony, the samurai captain made a shocking move!

In addition to officials from the Meiji government, the French minister, the captain of the warship, many French soldiers, and Japanese onlookers were also present.

In front of everyone, the captain reached into his abdominal cavity, dragged out his intestines, and threw it in front of the French!

Jiecuo was also shocked to the extreme, and slashed three times before cutting off the head of Miura Inokichi!

After the squad leader, the second, the third, the fourth......

One by one, the soldiers cut open their abdomen, pulled out their intestines, and threw them in front of the French!

When the twelfth soldier was about to perform seppuku, the captain of the Dubre, Abel, finally couldn't stand it anymore and begged to stop the ceremony.

Eleven Japanese samurai, paying for the lives of eleven French soldiers.

But the captain and members of the Rokuban team paid off this so-called "responsibility" in the most extreme way, and they became heroes of Japan!

This is a true thing that Du Xingwu, who studied in Japan, once said to Chen Mu.

Although the Japanese are ready to make a move and have always wanted to invade and occupy Shandong and other places in the Great Qing Dynasty, it has to be said that their extreme and radical spirit really makes people's blood boil.

Chen Mu remembered this, so he gave Fu Qingyin a dagger, which was the last dignity he left to Fu Qingyin, so that he could repay the blood debt he owed like a man.

Because Chen Mu is familiar with the scriptures and history, he knows that in Chinese history, there has never been a shortage of such bloody and trustworthy knights, they abide by the Tao in their hearts, no matter what, they should be respected as they deserve.

Since Fu Qingyin is practicing martial arts, since he is a person in the martial arts, he should get such an opportunity.

But obviously, Fu Qingyin doesn't have such a sense of shame!

He finally moved, and finally picked up the dagger, but instead of stabbing himself, he stabbed Liu Sleeve!

"I'm not going to let you get what you want! Hahaha! ”

Fu Qingyin laughed maniacally, if he killed Liu Sleeve, Chen Mu would not be able to slash the enemy, even at the last moment, he still didn't want Chen Mu to laugh proudly to the end!

A backhand stabbed Liu Sleeve, Fu Qingyin pulled out the blade, and pushed Yin Lizhang to the front, Yin Lizhang had not yet reacted, and the back of his heart had been pierced by a dagger!

Fu Qingyin kicked out, Yin Lizhang fell forward, and Fu Qingyin took the opportunity to jump from the window!

Although Chen Mu did not move, although the brothers did not move, everyone was on guard against these three people, especially Liu Sleeve, who did not know the depths of the bottom.

But no one expected that Fu Qingyin would do such a thing, and the brothers were also stunned on the spot.

Yang Dachun reacted quickly in the end and jumped down!

However, gunshots soon rang out outside, Chen Mu walked quickly to the window, and saw Yang Dachun's face pale, covering his shoulders, and Fu Qingyin had already run away.

"Chase!" Sun Youlin took Haruko Ashiya and others, flew downstairs, and chased after him.

Chen Mu helped Yang Dachun in, and he also lost his life, although he was attacked by Fu Qingyin, but in the end he was only scratched by a bullet, and he didn't have to worry about his life.

Chen Mu hurriedly asked Yang Dachun to escort him back to heal his injuries, and he stayed in the room on the second floor.

Yin Lizhang was stabbed in the back of the heart, and he was already dead at this time, but Liu Sleeve seemed to have not been stabbed, just sitting cross-legged and breathing a little fast.

"You and Chen Zongjiguo are compatible, not only do they look alike, but they are also the same...... The same stupidity. ”

Liu Sleeve was halfway through speaking, gritting his teeth before he could continue.

"If you kill him with a single sword, how can you make a mistake?" Liu Sleeve is like educating his own juniors, a little regretful and a little annoyed.

"That's how my father let you go?" Chen Mu also sat down and looked at Liu Sleeve carefully.

He's really too old.

The face is full of wrinkles and age spots, as if the body has decayed, just a living dead covered with a layer of human skin, who would have thought that even after so many years, this person still controls the Heavenly King Society?

It is said that he is in the same period as Ye Zhuge Chen Zongji and others, so he should not be very old.

But he was a general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and he was sent to Guangxi to contact and guide the Tiandihui uprising.

"Hmph, everyone praises him as Ye Zhuge , and even overshadowed Zhu Hongying's limelight, and people who don't even understand the truth of the master of high merit, what's the pity of dying?"

Many people believe that when people are old and know their destiny, they will gradually see their mistakes and change their ways.

But this is not the case, the evil in the heart will continue to accumulate and magnify, the older you get, the more stubborn you are, Liu Sleeve is a living example!

Time will not heal the heartache, nor will it remove the evil thoughts in the heart, but will encourage the breeding of evil!

"Why did you kill me?"

Chen Mu didn't ask him why he wanted to kill Ye Zhuge because it involved the interests of the time, and it didn't make much sense to ask.

But Chen Mu is just a posthumous son, harmless to others, so why bother, even at the expense of framing Chen Qiyou, causing the family to be ruined, and he has to be killed!

Liu Sleeve smiled: "After all, there must be a beginning and an end to doing things, isn't it?" If you say it's you, even if you have a son, I will kill your son, even if you don't have a son, I will kill the woman who may have a child for you! ”

Chen Mu's heart was a little cold, because he knew that the morality and belief that he and Liu Sleeve firmly believed in were fundamentally different, the Tao was different, and the Tao was not mutually beneficial, and the Tao was different, and it was impossible to communicate.

How can people who are not in the same world understand each other's thoughts?

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Liu Sleeve didn't know martial arts at all!

can become the general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, can fight in the south and the north, can turn the clouds and rain, can stir up the pattern of Lingnan, and control the Heavenly King Society, such a person does not know martial arts!

No wonder he didn't react at all to Qingyin's sneak attack!

"Finished?" Chen Mu didn't have much expression, slowly pulled out the knife from the sheath, and walked behind Liu Sleeve.

Liu Sleeve laughed: "Liu has lived enough in this life, the scenery of the scenery, the one who should be killed, and it is not bad to die in your hands." ”

"But before I die, I have something for you."

Liu Sleeve took out an object from his arms, which turned out to be a jade dragon and a jade-inlaid seal.

Chen Mu just glanced at it, and saw that there was a column of Lieyang inscriptions engraved on it, what auxiliary generals, Heavenly Father God, Heavenly Brother Christ, Heavenly King Hongri, Yongding Qiankun and the like, it should be the seal of the great general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

"I have made a rule, whoever kills me will be able to take over the Heavenly King Society, you take this seal, and you will bring my team in the future!"

Chen Mu was slightly stunned, and then shook his head and laughed.

Liu Sleeve is an old man who has no power to restrain the chicken, but he has been able to stir up the wind and rain for so many years, relying on this head.

Last moment, he also sent the most elite dead soldiers to assassinate Chen Mu, and at this moment, he had to hand over Yin Zhan and the troops to Chen Mu, how could this be possible!

Maybe whoever takes this seal will be the murderer who kills him, and he will inevitably be hunted down by the Heavenly King endlessly!

Chen Mu wants to take revenge, of course, he is not afraid of the revenge of the Heavenly King.

But he just wants to kill Liu Sleeve!

"Listen to me, this seal ......" Liu Sleeve was still saying something, but Chen Mu had already raised his head slightly, and the roof seemed to become transparent at this time.

He saw Chen Qiyou and Chen Ying, his mother, Honggu, and even Zhu Hongying and Ye Zhuge who he had never seen before.

His hand didn't tremble at all, and he cut off Liu Sleeve's neck and the nonsense he was still spitting out!

"Hiss!"

The blood column spurted higher than Chen Mu's, falling like a drizzle.

The headless old man who was still kneeling, still only holding the seal in his hand, looked shocked on his tumbling head, as if the head had broken too suddenly, and he hadn't thought of it.

Chen Mu took the seal out of his hand and said to himself: "I won't ask for the Heavenly King Society, but this seal can be left as a souvenir......

The wind outside blew in through the window, and Chen Mu suddenly felt that the world was a lot cleaner again, but he couldn't stay too long, because he still had to chase after Fu Qingyin!
