Chapter 14 The strange man Chen Shijun
After leaving the church, Lei Ba couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, when did you learn foreign language?" ”
"Oh...... This one...... When I was at home before, I read a book, called "The Atlas of the Sea Kingdom", which said that I wanted to master the skills of the master to control the country, I was deeply inspired, I felt that if China wants to be strong, we must learn from the West, learn their things, and then surpass them, so I went to buy a lot of books from foreigners to teach myself, you know, young master, I am a genius, I see ten lines, I never forget, so I learned a lot of foreign languages in a short period of time, and I not only know German, but also English, French, Russian, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and so on. Don't be surprised if you come across me in the future, because you must know that what we have to do now is to know ourselves and our opponents, and win all battles. Wang Jundao said awe-inspiringly, he is indeed proficient in more than ten languages, which he learned in his previous life, because as a special forces, he once participated in the international special forces drill, for which he specialized in English and French, and after he became disabled, he was in a wheelchair, and he had a lot of time to learn other things, he learned these languages, not for anything else, just to better analyze the various secrets of other countries, of course, he couldn't say these to Lei Ba, so he could only fool him.
Wang Jundao does have the ability to never forget it now, and when he said this, not only Lei Ba believed it, but even Cui Jingluo believed it.
Lei Ba scratched his head and couldn't help but ask indignantly: "Young master, a pistol is just such an iron lump, it costs fifteen taels of silver, and one tael of silver can make me eat for a month, are those iron lumps really worth so much money?" ”
Wang Jundao suddenly cried and laughed, and couldn't wait to give Lei Ba a few times, so he said angrily: "I'll give you a hundred taels of silver, you go and make me an iron lump to see?" ”
"Uh......" Lei Ba was dumbfounded at the moment.
Cui Jingluo said with a smile on the side: "The price that Rudolph sold to the young master is already very cheap, when he sold it to Kang Jian before, each pistol was thirty taels, and each rifle was more than fifty taels. ”
"Hiss......" Lei Ba immediately gasped, so the young master from the family still made a lot of money.
"Haha, this time you know how powerful the young master is, right?" Wang Jundao laughed.
"Young master, why do you think he sold it to you at such a low price?" Lei Ba asked puzzled.
"You think I'm wasting saliva by talking to him so much bird language before?" Wang Jundao said. He and Rudolf exchanged words in German for nearly an hour, mostly talking about German customs, praising the strength of Germany, promoting its beauty, and praising the virtues of the Germans, all the words of praise he could. As it turns out, Chinese is the best way to praise things, even when translating Chinese into other languages, because the gist of the words hasn't changed.
"Bird language? The young master's description is really apt, chirp wow, it's really like bird language, hahaha...... In the future, I won't say that I don't call foreigners to do foreign languages, just call birds directly. Lei Ba couldn't help laughing as he spoke, causing people on the street to look sideways, but he didn't care and still laughed.
Cui Jingluo didn't care about Lei Ba, and asked Wang Jun, "Young Master, where are we going now?" ”
Wang Jundao looked up at the sky that was gradually darkening, and said: "Back to the inn, you said that you will take a group of brothers to all parts of Jinan City to purchase all kinds of goods and materials according to our prior plan, I will go to the church to pay the money, and the day after tomorrow we will transport the goods out of the city, and take the arms away by the way." ”
Half an hour later, the three of them returned to the inn where they lived, it was already dark, Ya'er was already waiting for Wang Jundao, serving him to change clothes and wash his face, of course, taking a bath and other things, he solved it himself, although he wanted to take advantage of the pretty girl Ya'er, but he still did a decent gentleman.
After serving Wang Jundao, Ya'er said in unison: "Young Master, you rest early." I went out first. ”
Wang Jundao gently stroked a strand of Ya'er's hanging hair, stroked her pretty little face, and said, "Ya'er, I'll give you a name." ”
Ya'er only felt that her face was hot, nodded shyly, and let out a "hmm" as thin as a gnat.
"My mother's surname is Yun, you can follow my mother's surname, you will be called Ya'er, just Yun Ya'er, in the future, if our child is a boy, it will be called Wang Yun, if it is a girl, it will be called Wang Ya, how about it?" Wang Jundao said softly.
"Well, I listen to the young master." Ya'er's pretty face suddenly became hot, and she lowered her eyebrows, not daring to look at Wang Jundao.
"Well, hurry up and go to sleep, have a good dream, and I'll take you to Jinan City tomorrow." Feeling the heat on Ya'er's face, Wang Jundao laughed, teasing the pretty girl, this feeling is really good.
"Hmm." Ya'er nodded, and ran away in shame, as light as a swallow, although her heart was like a deer, but her heart was full of expectations for tomorrow's shopping.
Wang Jundao couldn't help but smile and shook his head, this girl is very shy, half-loud, he stopped smiling, and said with a calm expression: "Come out." ”
When the words fell, an old figure slowly walked out of the shadows, it was Uncle Chen, at this time he no longer had the usual rickets, his back was straight, the momentum of his whole body, like a mountain, the eight winds did not move, he looked at Wang Jundao, and shouted in a low voice: "Young master." ”
Wang Jundao nodded slightly and said, "Uncle Chen, my father didn't know that you were a peerless master, right?" ”
"That's right." Uncle Chen nodded, and said without concealment: "Your grandfather saved me back then, and since then, I have followed your grandfather, and it has been thirty-six years until today, and your grandfather's martial arts were taught by me, but I didn't let him tell others that his martial arts were learned from me, so although your father learned kung fu from your grandfather, he didn't know that your grandfather's martial arts were actually taught by me." ”
"Thirty-six years ......" Wang Jundao muttered, thinking of what happened thirty-six years ago, he couldn't help but look directly at Uncle Chen, and said, "Thirty-six years ago, it happened to be the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”
"Young Master, you are really smart, much smarter than before." Chen Bo looked at Wang Jundao deeply.
"Oh? How so? Wang Jundao smiled.
"In the past, although you were also the best among people, you will definitely not be as unfathomable as now, there is mystery everywhere, if it weren't for watching you grow up since childhood, even I can't help but wonder if you are still a young master after all." Uncle Chen said slowly.
"I'm still me, of course, but a lot of things were realized in the days I was unconscious, and when I woke up, I found that there were so many more endless things in my mind, and even I didn't know what was going on." Wang Jundao said half-truthfully.
"No wonder." Chen Bo muttered to himself, magical as him, and he didn't know what the reason was, but he knew that the young master was still the young master, which was enough, and what Wang Jundao was doing now was to oppose the Qing Dynasty, which was his wish.
"Uncle Chen, I want to know how powerful you are now." Wang Jundao suddenly asked.
"Young master, I'm old, and now I'm not necessarily your opponent." Uncle Chen smiled helplessly, thinking of how he dominated the world forty years ago, and there were few opponents? Now he has become a gray-haired old man.
"What about you more than forty years ago?" Wang Jundao asked again. He actually doesn't know how powerful he is now, at least he has a feeling that he has surpassed the peak state of his previous life, even in the face of the sharpshooter Li Shuwen, he can fight brazenly, the victory or defeat should be five or five, Chen Bo is already seventy or eighty years old, and he still has such terrifying combat power, which simply makes him a little unbelievable. You must know that ordinary people can hardly even walk at Uncle Chen's age.
"More than forty years ago!" Chen Bo couldn't help but show deep reminiscence, and said slowly: "At that time, I was in my thirties, and I was the head of hundreds of thousands of Tianping Army, whether it was the Taiping Army, the Qing Army, or the rivers and lakes, there were only a handful of people who could be my opponents. ”
Hundreds of thousands of Taiping Army's guns and sticks? Wang Jundao was shocked when he heard this, isn't this equivalent to the first person in the martial arts of hundreds of thousands of Taiping Army? When the Taiping Army just emerged, it did not form any foreign gun team, but relied on swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and in just a few years, it swept the entire southern part of China.
From this point of view, as the head of the Taiping Army, which is terrifying in combat, Chen Bo is only afraid that not only is his martial arts strong, but his martial arts strategy will not be much worse.
It's just that why is there no record of Chen Bo in later generations? Wang Jundao began to wonder.
"Uncle Chen, what is your original name?" Wang Jundao couldn't help but ask.
"The name is just a symbol, so many years have passed, and when I mention the name, alas, I think of those old brothers again." Uncle Chen sighed and said, "But since the young master wants to know my name, what's the point if I say it?" My name is Chen Shijun. ”
Chen Shijun? Isn't this the strange person who taught Sword Immortal Li Jinglin's martial arts? That's a god who has lived for more than 110 years, but he didn't expect it to be his personal old servant, which is simply too surprising.
For a while, Wang Jundao couldn't help but look at Chen Shijun with wide eyes.
"How?" Uncle Chen didn't know how his name could give Wang Jundao such a big reaction, so he couldn't help but ask.
"It's fine." Wang Jundao shook his head, and asked with a fiery look in his eyes: "Uncle Chen, I heard that there were countless martial arts masters back then, such as Yang Luchan, the Tai Chi Grandmaster who was known as the invincible world, and Dong Haichuan, who was known as the gossip martial god, and Guo Yunshen, who fought the world with half a step, etc., how do you compare with them?" ”
"Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan's martial arts are between Bozhong, they had a battle back then, and in the end they didn't know the winner, Yang Luchan deserved the name of Yang Invincible, Dong Haichuan can indeed be regarded as a gossip martial god, as for Guo Yunshen, although a body of Xingyi Fist Kung Fu is superb, but compared to Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan, there is a trace of artistic conception, if Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan are martial arts masters, he can only be regarded as a martial arts master, but because Xingyi Quan is the most suitable for fighting, his combat ability is not under Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan, Thirty-eight years ago, I had a fight with him, and I won a move. Chen Bo recalled.
Wang Jundao knew in his heart that later generations said that Dong Haichuan was the first master of the late Qing Dynasty, which seems to be inaccurate. (Top Ten Masters of the Late Qing Dynasty: Dong Haichuan, Dadao Wang Wu, Huang Feihong, Huo Yuanjia, Wang Ziping, Du Xinwu, Han Muxia, Yanzi Li San, Sun Lutang, Guo Yunshen.) Huang Feng does not agree with this ranking, for example, Wang Ziping, who is known as the King of Thousand Jin Divine Power, he once had a battle with Shang Yunxiang and was easily defeated by Shang Yunxiang, as well as Li Shuwen, who has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for forty years, has never been defeated, as well as Sword Immortal Li Jinglin, Single Knife Li Cunyi, Cheng Tinghua, etc., their martial arts and bearing are definitely not under these people, interested friends can go to check the information, Huang Feng will definitely not talk nonsense. )
"Young master, don't think they are unattainable, there are countless capable people in this world, as far as I know, when I was famous, there were no less than ten people in the world whose strength was above me, but they didn't want to be famous, and just like the song you sang during the day, the land of China, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Qinling, Wudang, Songshan, Qingcheng, Luofu, and other places, outstanding people, maybe there is a real peerless master hidden between the green mountains and green waters." Chen Bo looked at Wang Jundao and couldn't help but say.
"Naturally, I don't look up to them, because the strong are all used to surpass." Wang Jundao looked straight and said: "Okay, Uncle Chen, I won't say it, you just stay here, don't let people in, I'm going out to do something, by the way, you will pay Ya'er more effort in the future, follow me, if you don't have good skills, it will be very dangerous." ”
"I see, you go ahead, be careful yourself." Chen Bo knew that Wang Jundao was a person who did great things, and he would not be stupid enough to ask him what he was doing.
Wang Jundao naturally wants to explore the mansion of the governor of Shandong, and the current governor of Shandong is Yuan Shikai, who is famous in later generations.
