Subtitle of this chapter: Lao Tzu promises not to be Pushkin!

……………………

"Among the cultural people who died in duels, the Russian poet Pushkin is a household name. The famous duel on February 8, 1837 finally brought the "sun of Russian poetry" to its knees. But he is the most famous poet in the dueling world, but he is not the most famous duelist among poets. The Italian poet Felice Carlo Cavallotti, who fought more than thirty duels in his life, is the most famous gladiator among poets. Finally, in Rome in 1868, he died in a duel. ”

Marcel Proust (1872-1922), the author of Remembrance, was well known for his homosexual orientation, although he did not come out. As for the general reader, even if he didn't know it before, when he saw the volume of "Sodom and Gomorrah", he probably knew it in his heart. ”

However, what he heard was that Proust actually engaged in a duel because someone had 'denigrated' him and someone else. He and a literary critic named Jean-Loma took turns shooting in a French forest, but the two writers each fired three rounds of gunfire unscathed. So they shook hands and made peace. ”

The famous English playwright Ben Jonson (1572~1637) was a contemporary of Shakespeare, and like most playwrights of the time, he occasionally made cameo appearances. So Shakespeare played his role in the play, and he also played the role in Shakespeare's play. ”

"He was arrested for killing his opponent in a duel. In an effort to drop the charges against himself, Jonson showed his talent in court: writing. Having proved that he could not only read Latin, but also write Latin, he was able to ask for a special defense in court and enjoy the benefits of the clergy. This means that since Johnson is as knowledgeable as the clergy, he will be given leniency. In the end, Johnson was actually released after only a few weeks in prison. ”

"Not only the literati of the West, but also the East have dueled. The most famous duel was fought between Xiao Jun and Nie Chongwu on one side and Ma Jifeng and Zhang Chunqiao on the other. ”

On October 19, 1936, Mr. Lu Xun died of illness in Shanghai. A few days later, in order to express his grief, Xiao Jun incinerated the three publications "Zhongliu", "Writer" and "Translation" in front of Lu Xun's tomb. This matter was soon known to Zhang Chunqiao, who was active in Shanghai's literary and art circles at the time, and his literary friend Ma Jifeng, who co-wrote an article and published it in the "Da Wan Wanbao", scolding Xiao Jun as a 'Lumen general' and Lu Xun's 'filial son and grandson', and burning the publication was a foolish act of feudal superstition. ”

Xiao Jun was very angry when he saw this article, and he was about to write an article to fight back, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was too boring to fight a lawsuit with them, and it was better to solve it more straightforwardly with fists and feet. So he found the other two and made an appointment for a duel......"

"Of course, the most famous dueling among the Oriental literati is Mr. Yuan Yanqi, who has the 'master of the Republic of China' and 'the last madman in China'......"

——Excerpt from "Literati and Duel" (Author's note: It is said that Wang Shuo and another contemporary writer, Zhou Sese, also made an appointment for "Lao Xu". However, these two bigwigs just talked and didn't practice, and they didn't fight in the end, so Murong didn't write it. In other words, you all know who Lao Xu is. ）

"Lieutenant Colonel Alexander, I will have my assistant inform you of the time, place and manner of the duel."

The matter is decided, and our Master Yuan can't stay any longer.

He bent down to the crowd with his right hand on his chest, nodded to Mr. Hughes, and walked away with his dueling assistant......

"Mr. Yuan, please wait a minute!"

Yuan Yanqian, who had just walked out of the door not far away, turned his head and snorted coldly in his heart, it turned out to be this guy......

"Who are you?"

The visitor was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "Ah...... I'm sorry, my name is John Edgar Hoover. Mr. Yuan, can you take a step to speak? ”

"Yes, you can." Master Yuan, who was full of displeasure, nodded, and walked with him to a tree on the side of the road and said, "Mr. Hoover, what advice do you have?" ”

Hoover lowered his voice and asked, "Lord Fool, don't get me wrong......

He paused, and said in a strange tone, "I'm doing you a favor." You're the SCP Foundation investigator, and I'm sure you'll be able to handle this duel, so that's why I'm talking. ”

I understand, this guy is still not sure of his own path, he wants to test (for) himself, but he doesn't want to offend himself, so he came out to explain to himself.

"Hehe......" Yuan Yanqian chuckled lightly and said in a playful tone, "Mr. Hoover, I really want to thank you for speaking of which." Rest assured, you'll see my strength as a junior investigator for the SCP Foundation. ”

"That's good, that's good." Hoover pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled stiffly, "Then I'll wish you a victorious start." ”

"Of course!" Master Yuan's heart moved, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Hoover, if there is any gamble, you can boldly press on me." I promise...... You can make a small fortune. ”

"Hmm......" Hoover saw this Chinese full of confidence, so he had to laugh dryly, "Thank you Mr. Yuan for the suggestion, I will ......"

"Neo, where are you?"

At this moment, a shadow also hurriedly walked out of the dance scene.

"Emma, are you here too? By the way, what about your father? Yuan Yan looked at it, and it was indeed an old acquaintance. Their father and daughter were supposed to come here to cover the inauguration?

Miss Pulitzer panted, "Neo, we saw you just now, and we were about to greet you when we met this incident. So...... My father is now interviewing the British lieutenant colonel. ”

Her tone immediately changed, and she asked seriously, "Mr. Yuan, I want to interview you about this duel." ”

This is big news, and these two professional newspaper people from a newspaper family don't immediately pounce on the interview.

After passing through, Master Yuan, who has always been determined to make big news, has a bright heart again, and he really made another big news!

So he nodded and said, "Emma, you can follow me for the next few days, I promise...... You can get a big scoop! ”

Yuan Yanqian looked back and saw that Mr. Hoover was gone, so he said to the man and woman: "Let's go back to my hotel first, and then we will be very busy!" ”

When they entered the lobby of the Rosewood Hotel, the manager Frank immediately greeted him and said, "Mr. Yuan, there are your phones, there are a lot of your phones!" Here's the list. ”

"Thank you." Our Master Yuan took the list and looked at it...... Sure enough, they were all journalists. These people are worthy of dogs, and they pounced when they smelled fish, but in addition to the reporter, there was another acquaintance.

The first thing he did when he got back to the room was to call the acquaintance: "Hello, Mr. Roosevelt?" I'm Neo Yuan......"

"Well, did you hear I'm going to duel? Hahaha, your news is really fast......"

"Oh, you know Sir Hale, and you have a good relationship, so you want to reconcile them with me......"

"Hey, thank you for your help, but it doesn't take ...... at all"

"Mr. Roosevelt, I promise...... Can win! ”

………………

It's unbelievable that this broken book has multiple female readers......

Does this mean that Murong should go to mix women?
