Chapter 5 Encounter the Qing Army Again
With the help of Fu Shanxiang, Chen Dingtian continued his translation work. The translation of the various language versions of these four famous works www.biquge.info actually very simple. Because Chen Dingtian had read many translations of foreign Chinese languages, he soon began to translate, and he directly concentrated the essence of the major translations, and then concentrated them for translation. This not only ensures the authenticity of the work, but also allows foreigners to understand the content of the text. In this way, Chen Dingtian thought that in the future, it would be opened to foreign countries, which would allow foreigners to learn Chinese culture, and then China would invade them culturally. However, the most important thing at present is to make a living, and this self-translation of the foreign language versions of the four famous works can obtain great wealth, which is the reason why Chen Dingtian did this. As for plagiarizing other people's translations, this Chen Dingtian doesn't care, thinking that none of your people were born, what is it if you use their translations? What about being a copyist, as long as you can get money, after all, no one was born in this era!
"Shanxiang, follow me to relax!" Chen Dingtian said.
"Hmm!" Fu Shanxiang replied and immediately went to start preparing.
Translating is a job that requires both mental and physical strength, so after working for a month, Chen Dingtian immediately began to relax. However, he was only distracting in Shanghai, because he knew that once he left the concession area of Shanghai, then he might soon be arrested and killed by those Manchu officers and soldiers in Shanghai, so he was not stupid! But he also wanted to see what was going on in Shanghai at the end of the Qing Dynasty.
"Shanghai in this era is still not comparable! This era has just begun to trade with foreign countries for more than ten years, and even the Manchu Qing Dynasty secretly banned trading, so Shanghai has not been able to develop for a long time. But in a few years, maybe it can be gradually developed. However, it was because of the enemy's strong ships and guns, not because he was willing to open up. It's a pity that China will have such a fate in the future, which is really a pity! Chen Dingtian thought.
Chen Dingtian was here to watch the scenery of the surrounding Shanghai, the pristine scenery here, when suddenly someone started shouting.
"Help!" "Help!" "Help!" ……
Chen Dingtian heard a girl's shout, and Chen Dingtian immediately looked in the direction of the sound. Soon he also saw a little girl about fifteen years old, who was actually rushing towards him, and the Qing army was chasing after him. And this girl soon ran over, Chen Dingtian saw that the Qing army was actually chasing and killing a little girl who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, which immediately made Chen Dingtian very annoyed.
It's just that these Qing soldiers want to kill themselves because they don't have braids, but they still want to chase and kill a girl, which makes him a little unbearable.
"What are you doing?" Chen Dingtian shouted.
The girl saw Chen Dingtian, and hurriedly ran towards Chen Dingtian, and then quickly walked to the concession.
"Childe, save me! Childe, save me! The girl shouted quickly.
The Qing army behind the girl quickly rushed here, and then looked at the boundary outside the concession, and they all stopped. Because this is a concession, if it is ordinary people who come over, there is no problem, but as a national law enforcement agency, it is not possible to come casually, this is the agreement between foreigners and Manchus. Therefore when the people came, they did not dare to come.
"What are you doing? Actually chasing and killing a little girl like this? Chen Dingtian asked.
The Qing army led by the Qing army quickly looked at Chen Dingtian, and immediately said angrily: "It turned out to be you, a thief, what are you doing?" Last time, you relied on the protection of foreigners, I didn't kill you, and you dare to come and hinder us now? Believe it or not, I can kill you on the spot! ”
Chen Dingtian immediately said coldly: "You dare? If you have a seed, come! ”
The leader of the fast hunt quickly pulled out his knife, and then prepared to slash at Chen Dingtian.
"Team leader, don't! This is the concession, if we dare to kill people casually, I'm afraid it will be difficult for foreigners to explain it! At that time, I am afraid that our Qingpu Yuzhi County will also be investigated by the superiors, so we are not suitable! So, team leader, it's not suitable to kill people here! ”
The squad leader quickly put away the knife, and then said angrily: "You give me this woman? ”
Chen Dingtian asked rhetorically: "What did he do?" ”
"She is a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, and his father and the people actually refused to pay the official grain, so we want to arrest her!" The head of the squad said.
"Childe, they raise taxes at will, of course we don't want to pay it!" The girl said.
Chen Dingtian asked rhetorically: "You collect taxes, but do things for the people?" You said that if you collect taxes, you will collect taxes, but have you not asked the people? Also, you actually went to arrest a girl for this tax? What can a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl do? Which of you will break the law, who will you arrest, why embarrass a girl? His father is his father, she is her, don't mess around. A girl who is only fifteen or sixteen years old has nothing to do with you guys. ”
"Chen Dingtian, let me ask you, are you handing over the people to me, otherwise we will be welcome!" The squad leader shouted.
"Hmph, what if I don't give it? If you have a kind, come, come! Chen Dingtian said unceremoniously and provocatively.
The team leader looked at the line at Chen Dingtian's feet, this is the demarcation line of the concession, but this makes it impossible for this Manchu arrester to come over to enforce the law. Once they dare to go over easily, it will be law enforcement in the concession, which violates the past agreement.
Crows. During the war, tens of thousands of British troops also defeated the Manchu Qing and forced them to sign a treaty. Even later, these Manchu courts were afraid of foreigners and did not dare to offend them easily. If he dares to cross this line easily, then I am afraid that his boss Yu Longguang will also be held accountable at that time, and he will not have good fruits to eat at that time.
"Team leader, since they have come to the concession, let's let the boss deal with it, right? I thought, this matter has nothing to do with us, anyway, the sky is falling and the tall people are holding it, so why should we? You said cautiously.
The team leader pointed at Chen Dingtian and said unceremoniously: "Chen Dingtian, you wait for me." If you have a kind, you will not be able to leave this concession for the rest of your life, and I will see how capable you are. You, a powerless literati, it's not easy for me to clean you up? ”
The team leader left with people, and Chen Dingtian also snorted: "It's really bad luck today, I actually met them again." However, these coercion did not even dare to go over the concession. I really didn't expect that one day I would actually rely on the concession to protect me, I really don't know what to say. ”
Chen Dingtian didn't know whether to be happy or sad. This concession is a disgrace to China and a disgrace to the nation, but today he actually has to rely on this concession to obtain safe shelter, so he doesn't know how to describe it. So when he scolded this team leader, his heart was also very complicated, and he couldn't describe his thoughts.
However, Chen Dingtian said again: "Hmph, all reactionaries are paper tigers. When you see this concession, you don't dare to come over, what can you become? ”
After Chen Dingtian was about to go back, the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl took the initiative to say: "Son, I can't repay my kindness today." I am Zhou Xiuying of the Heaven and Earth Society, and my father is Zhou Lichun, the leader of this generation of the Heaven and Earth Society, thank you for your help. If there is anything in the future, you can tell the people of our Heaven and Earth Society, we still have a little face here! Hmph, if it wasn't for my father's temporary incident this time, then I couldn't help but come out alone, and they almost caught me. Otherwise, if my father is still there, and my machete is still there, it is not certain who will kill the deer! ”
Chen Dingtian almost stumbled, because when he heard the names "Zhou Xiuying" and "Zhou Lichun", he immediately remembered that in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the Xiaodaohui Uprising and the Tiandihui Uprising broke out in the Shanghai area. This Tiandihui uprising was led by Zhou Lichun, and after Zhou Lichun's death, it was led by her daughter Zhou Xiuying, and finally cooperated with the Xiaodaohui to launch the Shanghai Xiaodaohui uprising. However, this time the uprising of the Shanghai Little Knife Society failed in the end, but it left behind the name of a heroine who has been famous for hundreds of years, called Zhou Xiuying.
This Zhou Xiuying heard that she was strong in martial arts and was evaluated by foreign reporters as a female warrior in the Amazon, which obviously shows her bravery. However, he actually met Zhou Xiuying, and it was a fifteen-year-old Zhou Xiuying, which surprised him too much.
"What the hell am I, I actually met not only Fu Shanxiang, but also Zhou Xiuying, so it's really a lonely thing in a different place. I've only been traveling for a month, so it's just a coincidence that I've met two famous people in history. And a famous woman! Chen Dingtian complained in his heart.
However, Chen Dingtian looked at this Zhou Xiuying, who looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and was just a Lori in the next life. Chen Dingtian really didn't expect that this very kawaii Lori would be the female general who charged directly with a machete, and the Amazon female warrior who killed the Qing army's blood and everyone was afraid of it? But since it has been recorded in history, even if it is exaggerated, it should definitely not be groundless, she played an important role as a woman, this may be certain, even if it is not like a legend, but it definitely plays the most important role.
That Zhou Xiuying said to Chen Dingtian very happily: "Childe, you leave a name, if you have a request in the future, our heaven and earth will definitely repay Childe." The men on our rivers and lakes will repay their kindness, and they will be repaid by the grace of a drop of water. If it weren't for Gongzi this time, I would have been killed by these Manchu officers and soldiers, so this is a life-saving grace! If the son asks for something in the future, thousands of brothers from our Heaven and Earth Society will help me repay it. Moreover, I will tell us that all the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society here, when they see Gongzi in the future, they will definitely be polite! ”
"Miss Zhou, my surname is Chen, my name is Dingtian, and I am the Dingtian who stands up to the sky. As for what to say to repay the favor, I won't say anything. Later you pay attention to it and don't get caught again. I'm lucky to have met me this time, if I might not be so lucky in the future! Chen Dingtian replied.
Chen Dingtian obviously didn't want to have anything to do with these people from the Heaven and Earth Society, especially in his cognition, this kind of Heaven and Earth Society and all kinds of parties would be eventful in the words of later generations. Society. If you are a serious person, it is better not to have any connection with the underworld, so as to avoid any conflicts with yourself, which is also not good.
With black. People who are related to the society will not end well in the future, this is what Chen Dingtian knows.
Zhou Xiuying obviously seemed to know Chen Dingtian's concerns, and said directly: "Chen Gongzi, you don't seem to look down on us people in the rivers and lakes?" However, even if you don't look down on us, you will repay your kindness, this is our rule. ”
"This is the fireworks of our Heaven and Earth Society, as long as you ask for it, so that you can set off this fireworks, and the brothers in our neighborhood have seen the fireworks and have gathered to obey the order. If it weren't for the fact that my father had taken most of the people away this time, and there weren't many brothers around, I would have set off this fireworks to get them to save me. However, I gave it to you this time, and anyone who sees this fireworks in the future will obey your orders, which can be regarded as my reward for saving your life! Please be sure to accept it, otherwise you will look down on me! ”
When Chen Dingtian heard this, he felt that if he didn't accept this thing, he would still look down on others. Chen Dingtian also avoided trouble, anyway, although they were black. Society, in the spirit of multiple friends and multiple roads, although far from the black. Society, but don't offend the black. The principles of society were soon accepted. Everyone has already spoken to this point, so Chen Dingtian is not suitable not to accept it.
Chen Dingtian took over the fireworks that could be sounded, and then complained: "This is also the legend, has it been piercing the clouds and arrows, and thousands of troops have come to meet each other?" ”
"Chen Gongzi, I'll go first. I returned to Qingpu from the trail, so that the officers and soldiers would not be able to catch me, so I left first. Zhou Xiuying said.
Chen Dingtian and this fireworks, I don't know what to think in my heart. Because he had just traveled for a month, he actually met two famous women in history, so he didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky, and he actually had an intersection with these two women. Not only did Fu Shanxiang become his secretary, but he also saved Zhou Xiuying once, and I don't know what it will have to do with them in the future.
However, Chen Dingtian then began to think about what to do next, so that he began to think about his future path. Otherwise, it's not a matter for me to go on like this, will I leave in the future, or stay here? This concession seems safe, but what about the future? What will happen in the future, he doesn't know much about this.
