Chapter Twenty-Five: The Life and Death of the Profitable Country
Zhou Yu got up from the chair as he spoke, and said to Ye Man very seriously, he didn't know much, but he still knew this sentence.
Ip Man was a little puzzled when he heard this, he thought for a while before he suddenly realized.
"Brother Yu, what you want to say is the rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, I have heard this, I don't know what Brother Yu means?"
When Zhou Yu heard this, his face suddenly turned a little red, but he didn't expect that he had thought about it for a long time, and after all, he pretended to be forced, and he remembered it.
"Ahem, that's right, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband."
But after all, he was still thick-skinned enough, and he coughed lightly twice and fooled over.
Ip Man didn't speak either, waiting for his next words.
"What I mean is literally related to this sentence, dare to ask Mr. Ye, if this day is not in the future, there will be life, corpses all over the field, starvation everywhere, the land of Guanzhong is ten rooms and nine empty, and thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are easy for others, how would you feel?"
Although Zhou Yu did not experience the War of Resistance against the Japanese, he could learn about the brutal and inhumane atrocities of the little Japanese in middle school textbooks and history books.
The Jinling Massacre, the Sanguang Policy, and the killing contest abound, whether it is for soldiers or civilians, the behavior of the Japanese in the land of our country is no different from that of animals and has no humanity.
"It's... How is this possible, although the country does not say that it is rich and prosperous now, but I have not heard of how big natural and man-made disasters there are, how can it become like this? ”
"Brother Yu, I advise you not to exaggerate and deliberately seriously injure the country."
Ye Wen was a little surprised, but he couldn't understand Zhou Yu's words at all, and he was still a little angry, and his hand holding the teacup was a little tight.
As a generation of martial arts masters, Ip Man must be loyal to the country, but as a landlord, he does not worry about eating and drinking, and he can't imagine the war after that, as well as the miserable life of the people at the bottom.
You must know that in that era, two or three silver dollars could buy a human life, although the feudal dynasty no longer exists, but the landlord still has a lot of old wealth, and has been squeezing the lives of the people at the bottom.
Moreover, the first period of the warlord war did not end until 1928, and now it is only 1930, and only two years have passed.
Foshan, Guangdong, is far away from the warlord melee area, so I can't appreciate the instability of the current situation and the bad of the situation, and I can only feel that the world is not peaceful.
People in troubled times are not as good as Taiping pigs, and ordinary people are cattle and animals, and there are not a few people who die on the streets.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu was angry and blushed and wanted to say something, but he couldn't think of a good word, after all, the war would only break out next year, and now there was no invasion on the Japanese side, and the outbreak of a full-scale war was on July 7, 1937.
In 31 years, he only occupied the land of Northeast China and established the puppet state of Manchukuo in an attempt to assimilate the people in the land of Northeast China at that time.
He can't explain what happened after now, saying that he will occupy the northeast land next year, and he will only be regarded as a fool to say it.
He didn't expect that the fearless and fearless grandmaster in the movie who won glory for the country would obviously be a landlord who enjoys life.
Ip Man has not experienced the war that swept the world now, so he has not experienced spiritual death, and there is no spiritual nirvana, and when he grabbed a job in the coal mining factory, he became a real grandmaster.
"I thought that Ye Man, the martial arts master who was famous in Foshan, was a master who cared about the country and had unparalleled benevolence and righteousness, but now it seems that he is just a vain appearance, flashy and untruthful, and he is ashamed to be with this generation and say goodbye."
Zhou Yu originally wanted to scold, but looking at Ye Man's puzzled appearance, he suddenly remembered a move to retreat as advance, and sometimes it was more useful to take a step back and speak, which was more useful than being aggressive.
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to open the door, he silently recited five numbers in his mind, he knew that Ip Man would definitely tell him to stay within five steps of him.
As soon as Ye Man heard this, the fire in his heart rose suddenly, he greeted this returnee student with delicious food and drink, thinking that he was coming to visit him and interview him, but he didn't expect Zhou Yushen to come to his study mysteriously, and he said some inexplicable words when he met.
Now he is still scolded as a person who has nothing to show for himself, which is really unbearable.
"You kid, I'm so happy to entertain you, I didn't expect you to say something inexplicable as soon as you came, now you can leave if you want to, are you looking for me to be happy, if you can get out of this door today, I won't be surnamed Ye!"
Ip Man is no matter how good his temper is, when he is said like this, he is also angry, and the clay people have three points of fire, not to mention people, and the person who practices martial arts is already angry, he is still in the prime of life, and he usually has good cultivation, which does not mean that he has no temper.
If you can't beat Miura to death if you don't have a temper, then if you have a temper, you have to go to heaven.
When Zhou Yu counted the last number in his heart, the corners of his mouth hooked up a slight arc, this matter is stable, Ye Man won't let him go, then if he doesn't do this well, it will go out horizontally, and only after doing it well can he go out vertically.
Of course, he also has the wind and thunder curse This kind of killing weapon is around, if there are other friends who follow him to stimulate Ip Man, it is recommended to buy a good white cloth, eat more apples, vegetables, and the corpse still has the fragrance of flowers, and then call Uncle Hei's professional team for one-stop service.
He turned around and came back, Ye Man had already stood up, the anger in his eyes was about to erupt into flames, and his fists had already stretched out, clenched tightly.
Looking at Ye Man's angry expression, he was also a little apprehensive in his heart, but he had already thought of his words.
Waiting for him to cut from his patriotic point, there will definitely be a chance to persuade.
"Ahem, Master Ye, please dissipate your anger, when I finish speaking, if you still think I should be beaten, then it's not too late for you to come over and beat me up."
Zhou Yu calmly coughed lightly, he explained, first calmed Ye Man's emotions, Ye Man put away his fist after listening, raised his head and motioned for him to continue.
"Master Ye, do you know why I abandoned those excellent conditions abroad and came back to this land of China instead?"
"That's because this is the root that gave birth to me and raised me, and the knowledge I learned came back to serve the motherland, but the country is now just after the warlord melee, the economy is sluggish, and the war readiness is next generation, but it controls millions of square kilometers of land, do you know what it means?"
When Ip Man heard that Zhou Yu was coming back to serve the motherland, his senses were much better, and he patiently listened to Zhou Yu's words and thought carefully for a while.
"It means that we have a lot of land and resources, and our people are thriving?"
Ip Man can only give such an answer, he is now a landlord, although he usually helps the poor and gives generously, but not all the classes are so kind, and he really can't understand why the war started.
"No, don't talk about the international form, don't talk about the advanced technology, let me give you an example, a group of children play together, a very thin and weak little man, but he is very rich and often buys some snacks and toys, but one of them is majestic and mighty, and the big man with a savage temperament has no money and can only look at him every day, what do you say this big man will do after that?"
Zhou Yu did not analyze the international form, nor did he analyze the gap between the Japanese and the current Huaxia Kingdom, but just gave an example, which is very vivid.
At this time, the Huaxia State is low in combat power but sits on millions of land, and the land is vast and rich, but the Wakou State is strong in war, the economy is sluggish, and there are many small people, and they need to invade to maintain their lives.
"This..."
"Then, dare to ask Brother Yu, which country is this big man from?"
Ip Man has nothing to say, what will happen next is obvious, and it can be seen everywhere, he can already understand what Zhou Yu means.
He now believes what Zhou Yu said before that the war will break out soon, but he still can't know who this big man is, is it the country of bears, the country where the sun never sets, or?
It was hard for him to guess in his heart that it was a small piece of land near the east, a small country that could not be smaller, a small thing that had been a vassal country of the Huaxia Kingdom for thousands of years.
"Master Ye, as far as I know, it is the Wako Kingdom in the east."
"What, that country?"
Ip Man was a little surprised, the thought in his heart was still stuck in the time when the Japanese had been paying tribute to Huaxia.
As soon as Zhou Yu heard this, he understood that it was not for nothing that Huaxia was beaten very badly by the Japanese invaders.
The idea of invasion has always existed, since the Tang Dynasty, as a vassal state of China, as long as China is strong, he will be a dog, but as soon as China declines, the first thing that wants to bite is it, wolf ambition, thief heart does not die, when attacking China, the map is drawn with great accuracy, and the military force is also deployed on the border early.
However, a martial arts master like Ip Man can't understand the danger of this kind of neighbor, a precise leader, a purposeful aggression, and a person who doesn't know anything and is not prepared, it is strange that he is not hurt.
"Master Ye, don't you know, the heart of the Japanese to destroy our country is not dead, since the Ming Dynasty has been burning, killing and looting at the border passes, until now it is also treating our land as their cake, and they have to guard against it.
"Of course, these are my speculations, if you think what I said is reasonable, please help me, if you think I am unreasonable, I will leave now, please listen to my nonsense here."
Zhou Yu explained earnestly, he has nothing to say now, the last sentence is to tell Ye Man, if he is not willing to help, I will leave, he does not believe that there are so many martial arts practitioners in Foshan, no one is willing to serve the country and the people?
Ye Man pondered for a long, long time, he felt a little ridiculous in his heart when he listened to Zhou Yu's words, but he felt that there was some truth, he knew that if he chose Zhou Yu, his life would not be so good in the future.
Whether to continue his life as a landlord or choose the nonsense of the young man in front of him, he was a little confused and didn't know what choice to make.
"Husband, what are you busy in the study?"
Suddenly, Zhang Yongcheng's voice came from downstairs, and it seemed that she saw that Ye Man and the others were not in the living room, so she came up.
Hearing Zhang Yongcheng's voice, Ip Man closed his eyes, he had such a scene in his head, the earth was ten rooms and nine empty, starvation was everywhere, his wife was crying and crying with blood and tears, holding the hands of her children and walking slowly among the homeless people, her eyes were blank like walking corpses.
"Yongcheng, it's okay, I have something to do with Brother Yu in the study, you go down first."
He first said a word loudly to Zhang Yongcheng, and it wasn't until he heard the sound of stepping downstairs that he turned his head and stared at Zhou Yu tightly, and he saluted Zhou Yu with his fists:
"Brother Yu, I think about it, the rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, the life and death of the country is profitable, how can it be avoided because of misfortune and fortune, if Brother Yu wants to serve the motherland, please bring me with you, but if Brother Yu wants to do something harmful to the motherland, then you have to understand my Wing Chun!"
"Hahaha, Master Ye is worthy of being a generation of grandmasters, worried about the country and the people, unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, Brother Ye, in fact, I am looking for you not for anything else but for..."
