Chapter 2 Struggle for the Rise of China
Wang Jundao sat quietly, the first thing he thought about was why he crossed over, he never believed in the so-called soul reincarnation, not even the so-called soul body, but at this moment he had to believe it, after all, this kind of thing that only happens in books really happened to him.
He was thinking, since soul reincarnation and things that travel through time and space can happen, what else can't happen? Eternal life? Immortal? Flying away? Turning the river over the sea?
Uh, what am I thinking about this mess?
Wang Jundao is sweating in his heart, and his imagination is too rich, right? But what happened to me is really weird, alas, forget it, immortality is too ethereal, and immortality is probably a luxury, so let's think about something practical.
After today, it is 1900, China will usher in a full half century of suffering, the Boxer Rebellion broke out, and then the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded China, Tianjin and Yanjing were completely destroyed, gold, silver, jewelry, antique cultural relics were robbed, houses, houses, classical buildings were burned and destroyed, Russia invaded the three eastern provinces, the Xinchou Treaty was signed, China was completely reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, and the great powers began to desperately loot China's wealth, plunder China's resources, and enslave the Chinese people, followed by the abolition of the imperial examination system. Various revolutionary movements began to break out, the Xinhai Revolution, the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the complete collapse of the feudal monarchy, the establishment of the Republic of China, after the death of Yuan Shikai, the Beiyang warlords split, the warlords began to divide the territory, the First World War, the Northern Expedition War, the Nanchang Uprising broke out, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party began frequent wars, the invasion of the three eastern provinces, the cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Eight-Year War of Resistance, the Second World War, the War of Liberation, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Great Leap and the Special Period......
All the major events of more than half a century quickly flashed through Wang Jundao's mind, and he only felt extremely heavy, as if his heart was being pressed hard by a huge stone.
Knowing the history of the future sometimes does not necessarily make people feel the psychology of struggle, but only makes people completely heartbroken, and there is also deep helplessness......
What should I do?
For a long time, Wang Jundao couldn't help but ask himself in his heart.
In today's situation, the Qing political axe [***], the people are numb, and the great powers are looking at each other, what can I do? On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore? I'm afraid that before I can become a climate, I will be eaten to the point that there are no bones left!
Am I just sitting still? Watching history happen? Watching the tragedy befall the land of China one after another?
No!
Never!
Even if you die, you have to die on the road of struggle, even if you die, you have to seek a well-being for Huaxia, even if you die, you have to awaken as many Chinese souls as possible!
In an instant, Wang Jundao made up his mind to fight for the rise of China all his life.
Squeak~~~
At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and the first to enter was Ya'er with a wooden basin, followed by three people, one of whom was the most noticeable, his hair and beard were all white, and his gray and shabby clothes all his life made him look crumbling, but it gave people the impression that he would not fall down no matter the wind and rain. He is the old slave who has served Wang Jundao since he was a child-Uncle Chen. In the past, Wang Jundao was just a martial arts idiot boy who valued love and righteousness, so it was naturally impossible to pay special attention to this subordinate beside him, but now Wang Jundao is different, he can see at a glance that Chen Bo is extraordinary, although his face is withered and skinny, but he can't hide the fairy wind between his eyebrows, Wang Jundao is sure that he is definitely a strange person, a strange person that his father has never discovered.
The second person is thirty-six or seventeen years old, less than one meter seven tall, and his figure is not strong, at first glance his appearance is not good, mediocre, but Wang Jundao can see a touch of grandmaster's grandeur from his expression, he is a real grandmaster master. Wang Jundao knew that this was his father's friend, Li Shuwen, but unfortunately the current Li Shuwen has not really become famous, and he has not received the nickname of "Magic Spear".
The third person is a thirty-four-five-year-old Taoist priest, with a mediocre appearance, with a touch of wisdom in his eyes to see through the common people, he has a wisp of Taoist beard, and he is also wearing an ordinary Taoist uniform, his breath is stable and powerful, long and boundless, is a real master, Wang Jundao guessed, he is the Baiyun Taoist of Baiyun Temple, and he is also a friend of his father before his death.
The three of them saw that Wang Jundao was safe and sound, and all of them showed a look of surprise, with Wang Jundao's eyesight, they could naturally see that they were all concerned about him from the bottom of their hearts, and he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart.
It's just that he also secretly thought in his heart, if it weren't for his soul crossing over, he was afraid that the real Wang Jundao would be dead, then the three people in front of him would definitely not be able to gather here, Chen Bo would definitely travel everywhere, Li Shuwen would definitely return to Cangzhou, become the head of the Baji Gate, and in the future, he would recruit apprentices and inherit the Baji boxing technique......
"Master, you want water." Chen Bo, Li Shuwen, and Bai Yundao Elder didn't speak because of their surprise, but Ya'er spoke first.
Wang Jundao nodded and smiled at Ya'er, and then said to Uncle Chen: "Uncle Chen, Uncle Li, Uncle Dao, you sit down for a while, wait for me to wash my face, and then talk to you." ”
He didn't know what to call the head of the White Cloud Dao, so he called Uncle Dao directly, and there would be no problem in thinking about it.
"Good!" "Good!"
The two cheers sounded almost at the same time, Li Shuwen and Bai Yun Dao Chang both sat down first, only Chen Bo looked at Wang Jundao and smiled, stood aside, did not speak, and did not sit down.
Wang Jundao bent down to wash his face with water, but found that a handsome face appeared in the water, although he was not a peerless beautiful man, but he was also handsome and extraordinary, he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, he looked good, much better than his previous life, but unfortunately there was an extra pigtail braid on the back of his head!
After washing his face, Wang Jundao wiped the water stains on his face with a towel, and knelt down at Li Shuwen and Baiyun Dao Chang without warning, this kneeling immediately scared the two of them, Li Shuwen and Bai Yun Dao Chang quickly stood up from their seats, Chen Bo just stood aside and did not move, but a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Jun Dao, what are you doing here? Hurry up. ”
"yes, get up."
Li Shuwen and Bai Yun Dao Chang said that they were ready to help Wang Jundao up.
"Two uncles, listen to me first, nephew's kneeling, you deserve it." Wang Jundao did not let the two of them help them up, but said in a deep voice: "My father was captured, and Uncle Li was able to come to the rescue from thousands of miles away, although I failed to rescue my father in the end, but I have to remember this kindness, and this kneeling is for my father." ”
"Uncle Dao is not afraid of danger, and took me and more than 100 nominal and group brothers, I also have to remember this kindness, this kneeling is not only for me, but also for the more than 100 brothers in the view."
"Alas, Brother Liyan can have such a loyal and filial son, and the spirit of heaven can also be blind." Bai Yundao let out a long sigh. Li Shuwen also nodded, and the two of them helped Wang Jundao up at the same time.
Wang Jundao stood up and said, "Uncle Dao, I don't know what you call you, so I called you Uncle Dao just now, don't mind." ”
"Haha." Bai Yun Dao Chang stroked his beard and smiled: "My name is Bai Yuncheng, you can call me Uncle Bai in the future." ”
White Cloud City? Lonely City of White Clouds? This name seems to have a lot of flavor. Wang Jundao couldn't help but think of Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City in the martial arts novel, that is a sword saint, but I don't know if Uncle Bai is a sword saint? He couldn't help but glance at Bai Yuncheng's hand, and found that there was a calloon on his hand, he could see that it would only appear if he often held a sword in his hand, and his Uncle Bai was only afraid that he was not a sword master, but also a sword master, and he was not only a sword master, but the trace of wisdom in his eyes was afraid that not many people could compare.
"Jun Dao, what are your plans for the future? Why don't you go back to Cangzhou with me? Li Shuwen said. Wang Liyan and him are like brothers, and now that Wang Liyan is dead, Wang Jundao is naturally like his son, so he wants to bring Wang Jundao to Cangzhou and pass on his Bajiquan, after all, Wang Jundao has always been a martial arts wizard, and he has learned his father Wang Liyan's four or five skills before the age of fourteen.
Wang Jundao shook his head and said: "Uncle Li, there are more than 100 people waiting for me outside, they shed blood and sacrificed in order to rescue my father, and they did not hesitate to offend the Qing court and foreigners, so I can't go back with you, I am responsible for them." ”
"But you're too young to do anything." Li Shuwen shook his head and sighed.
"Things are man-made, and we must be worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, and worthy of our relatives and friends." Wang Jundao said firmly: "And if you are ambitious, I believe I can do it." ”
"That's too dangerous." Li Shuwen said. How could he rest assured that Wang Jundao would do those dangerous Boxer things alone? He himself doesn't have a good impression of the Boxers, nor does he have a bad feeling, but he doesn't want Wang Jundao to lead the Boxers again, when Wang Liyan participated in the Boxers, he didn't agree, if he did, he would have done it with Wang Liyan a long time ago.
"Uncle Li, is there a safe place in this world?" Wang Jundao looked at Li Shuwen and asked rhetorically: "Since the Opium War, the Western powers have knocked on the door of our country in China with foreign guns and cannons, and then signed the "Treaty of Nanjing", it doesn't matter if Huaxia compensated tens of millions of taels of silver, and also opened five treaty ports. How many wives have been separated? ”
However, they did not give up, followed by the invasion of the British and French forces, after attacking Zhili, they burned and looted all the way, and even broke through Yanjing City, burned the Old Summer Palace, robbed countless treasures of China, and harmed the people of China who don't know how much. However, then Russia seized the opportunity to invade the northeast and northwest lands and forcibly occupied several million square kilometers of land in China. ”
"Six years ago, after the victory of the First Sino-Japanese War, he attacked Liaodong and killed more than 20,000 people in Lushun, and then forcibly signed the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" with the Qing Zhengaxe, and forcibly seized 210 million taels of silver......"
"How much of my land in China has been reduced to colonies by Western powers over the past few decades? Britain, France, the United States, Russia, Germany, Italy, and Austria, which country is not eyeing China? What country doesn't want to eat China like a wolf? Uncle Li, tell me, is there a safe place in such a world? ”
Li Shuwen and Bai Yuncheng had already been dumbfounded when they heard it, Wang Jundao shook his head helplessly, alas, it seems that he has said too much, how can people in this era understand their feelings? Even if they have knowledge, they will inevitably have the limitations of this era, although Li Shuwen is said to be brilliant in martial arts, but in the final analysis, he is just a martial artist, how can he think so much? Baiyun City is just a Taoist priest, even if his wisdom is beyond ordinary people, how can he see anything ambitious?
However, Uncle Chen looked at Wang Jundao with blazing eyes, Wang Jundao didn't notice, he looked at Li Shuwen and Baiyun City, who had gradually come back to his senses, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Li, Uncle Bai, have you ever thought about it, if we continue like this, after thirty years, will we still have a country?" Without a country, where would we come from? Without a home, where are we safe? At that time, our children and grandchildren will forever be slaves of foreigners! ”
"Although I am young, I also want to use my strength to resist, to fight, to seek a well-being for our country, our nation, our children and grandchildren, although I am small, but I also want to use my actions, my thoughts, my soul, to awaken more people, so that more people can fight with me, and fight with me for the rise of China!"
