Chapter Twenty-Seven: Causes

"Have you ever heard of the Koshin Rebellion?"

Light words came out of Zhang Xilin's mouth, and without waiting for Ning Yang to answer, Zhang Xilin's voice continued to sound:

"In 1884, there was a coup d'état in Korea. The Enlightenment Party and the Conservative Party saw a fierce struggle for power, and I met Feng Baobao because of what happened that year..."

Looking at Zhang Xilin's appearance of about fifty years old, Ning Yang's eyebrows couldn't help but pick, and without interrupting Zhang Xilin's words, Ning Yang nodded and motioned for Zhang Xilin to continue.

Seeing that Ning Yang nodded and motioned for himself to continue, Zhang Xilin took out a wine jug out of nowhere and poured a sip of wine, and then continued to say leisurely:

"More than 80 years ago, I was ordered by my master to go down the mountain to practice, which was the only way for the disciples of Longhu Mountain, but I didn't expect that this experience changed my life...

During the downhill training, I made several friends, and like me, they were all disciples of other sects or the next generation of some Inhuman families.

It was a turbulent time, and a few of my friends and I earned a lot of fame for our respective sects as we traveled around and did righteous deeds.

We don't particularly care about reputation, and the loss of Bac Ninh makes me more anxious than reputation.

Thinking that I have a thousand-year-old history in China, but I have been bullied by foreigners like this, as a monk, I can't sit idly by.

Therefore, I gathered a group of like-minded people with a few brothers who met during the training and started the "chivalrous deeds"!

First assassinated the high-ranking officials and leaders of those who came to invade China, and then infiltrated their country to create chaos...

After a few years of tossing and turning, although the effect was not good, I formed a deep friendship with my brothers!

The training time was coming to an end, and my brothers and I were about to be separated, but just a few days before we parted, a piece of news reached our ears..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xilin's words paused, a miserable smile appeared on his face, Zhang Xilin looked at the sunset gradually setting in the distance, sighed, and then said:

"North Korea wants independence, and many high-ranking officials in the country have colluded with the Japanese to stage a coup d'état to make North Korea independent.

The brother who told us the news at the time died shortly after telling the news.

And when we heard the news, our first reaction was that we had to stop this from happening!

Almost immediately, I arrived in North Korea.

After some investigation, we did find evidence of their collusion with the Japanese from the homes of some high-ranking officials.

However...

You know the outcome of the matter, right? ”

When he said this, the miserable smile on Zhang Xilin's face was even worse, and his eyes looked at Ning Yang, Zhang Xilin's expression seemed to be inquiring, and it seemed to be talking to himself.

Without waiting for Ning Yang to answer, Zhang Xilin's voice continued to sound:

"Yes, when we killed all those high-ranking officials, the situation in North Korea, which was relatively peaceful, began to be turbulent, and that's when we realized...

All this turned out to be a conspiracy directed and acted by the Japanese!

Its purpose is to prepare for the future invasion plan while the disciples of our disciples of various sects and sects are infamous on our backs!

Apparently, they succeeded!

After the assassination of high-ranking officials, the Japanese began to hype up our deeds and began to "praise" us in a big way.

Under their deliberate promotion, our thirty-six like-minded monks who wanted to do things for China became thirty-six thieves who betrayed the country and sought glory...

From the original chivalrous righteousness, it has become today's shouting and beating...

Huh..."

A sad laugh with self-deprecation came from Zhang Xilin's mouth, which shows how helpless Zhang Xilin and others were at that time...

After taking another sip of wine to calm down his mood, Zhang Xilin continued to speak:

"The first acquaintance with Feng Baobao was on our way to escape.

I don't know if it's luck or providence, but when we were being hunted down by the sect, the country, and the Japanese, a few friends and I found a ruin!

And my first acquaintance with Feng Baobao was in that ruins...

At that time, there were a total of nine people who fell into the ruins with us, except for me and the other seven brothers, and the remaining one was Feng Baobao..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xilin stopped again. After taking a deep look at Ning Yang and taking another sip of wine, Zhang Xilin stared into Ning Yang's eyes and said lightly:

"I'm sure you've heard of the Eight Wonders, right?"

A faint voice came out of Zhang Xilin's mouth, looking at Ning Yang's calm face, Zhang Xilin's fists gradually clenched.

If Ning Yang really came for the Eight Wonder Skills, then even if he fought for his life, he would never let him succeed!

With a decision in his heart, Zhang Xilin's already clenched fist instantly clenched even tighter!

However...

After listening to Zhang Xilin's words, Ning Yang's performance disappointed Zhang Xilin.

I saw that Ning Yang was still drinking a little wine, and the expression on his face did not change at all, as if he didn't know what the so-called Eight Wonder Skills were.

Seeing Ning Yang's expression, Zhang Xilin breathed a sigh of relief and gradually loosened his clenched fists.

"Ugh..."

Sighing, looking at Ning Yang with an expressionless face, remembering that Ning Yang flew into the air just now, took out the recliner and the means to make Feng Baobao disappear with a wave of his hand, Zhang Xilin's expression instantly became much older.

"That's right, with your talented means, you should at least reach the realm of "harmony". It's normal for a character like you to look down on the Eight Wonders we have learned from the ruins. ”

"Back then, in the ruins, my eight brothers and I each comprehended a technique, and these eight techniques were the eight miraculous techniques that made our "Thirty-six Thieves" turn against each other!

Although it is called the Eight Wonder Techniques, in fact, these eight techniques are just an advanced version of the spells we have cultivated, and now that we think about it, the real inheritance in the ruins should be obtained by Feng Baobao, who fell into the ruins with us. ”

When he said this, Zhang Xilin's tone was a little embarrassed. Especially when he thought of seeing Feng Baobao again, looking at Feng Baobao's unchanged appearance, Zhang Xilin already had the answer in his heart.

"At that time, we only cared about hiding the miraculous skills we had comprehended, but we didn't know that the most precious thing in the ruins was obtained by a woman who did not have the slightest cultivation.

After agreeing that no one could pass on the secret, we came out of the ruins and went our separate ways.

At that time, I should have thought, how can there be an impermeable wall in this world?

Really...

It didn't take long for word to spread that we had the Eight Wonders...

From that day on, we began to hide in Tibet.

And the reunion with Feng Baobao...

But it is

Until...

Until 1937...

And why did Feng Baobao lose his memory, now that he thinks about it... I guess it's because of "that incident"...
