Chapter 34 The Past of the Zhang Family
The Boxers tossed in Changtu Mansion this experience, but it alarmed the top! They burned down the church, but they also knocked down a large piece of the train station that they were looking to finish, and lifted the railroad tracks two miles away. The top praised them a lot, saying that "the boxers are loyal and brave, and the magic is majestic"!
The city of Changtu was almost cleaned, so the Boxers went to the next field, first went to the villages and towns around the city, and detoured to Fenghua, so they had to go all over the four counties and one scattered prefecture of Changtu Prefecture. After all, a few days ago, people were panicked, the Boxers only killed foreigners and fake foreign devils, but no one can guarantee whether they will treat you as a fake foreign devil!
Or is it that there is a person who let the Boxers find their home and survive! Who, Zhang Daxian!
Zhang Daxian has a lot of foreign gadgets in his house, since the Boxers want to kill the two devils, what about the ones who don't worship foreign religions but take the devils' things? I don't know who this Zhang Daxian offended, anyway, someone stabbed the Boxers with all kinds of foreign goods in his house!
Although Zhang Daxian said that he had just turned over the hall, he was also the younger horse at the entrance of the hall, and the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, where was the little shrimp who thought he was invulnerable after learning boxing for a few days? There is still a long way to go from Zhang Daxian's house, and Zhang Daxian, who has received a personal message from the horse, is waiting at the door. How many people did the Boxers want to use to clean up a god? As a result, the twelve men were all overturned to the door of Zhang Daxian's house.
Where is Zhang Daxian's house? Not far from the entrance of the yamen, it is a crowded area. caught up with the Boxers to find people, and naturally there were people who didn't want to die to watch the excitement. As a result, Zhang Daxian had just overturned those boxers in less than two sticks of incense, and the one who was called the Holy Mother came with a hundred people!
It's not that the Boxers haven't smashed people in the past few days, but it's the first time that one person has knocked down a group, if this time he doesn't get it back, the face of the Boxers will fall at the door of Zhang Daxian's house!
"Which one is Zhang Daxian! Knowing that it was my Boxer people, I just caught it without restraining my hands, and I also injured my brother, so I came out to report the number! Our Lady didn't speak, and the tower-like Sai Tiangang beside her spoke.
The courtyard door opened a crack, Zhang Daxian leaned sideways and drew it out, and when he saw the battle in front of him, he was shocked, but he was smiling on his face. He put the bead string in his hand on his wrist and arched his hand to this side: "Everyone, a few boxers from your regiment came to me and told me that they wanted to kill me to correct the heavens. How? Do you want so many people to 'uphold the principles of heaven' together? ”
"This Zhang Daxian is right," Our Lady waved her hand to stop Sai Tiangang who raised her fist, and said, "You are so good at your ability, why bother to be a second devil?" If you join my Boxer Rebellion, you will not be to blame for the past, let's kill foreigners together and help the Qing Dynasty! ”
Zhang Daxian shook his head: "This ...... O Madonna...... On the first day you came to Changtu Mansion, I saw your good skills in front of the Drum Tower. I have great admiration for you, the master of God's beating. But not long after you came to Changtu Mansion, you didn't know that I was such a small person, and I didn't rely on my fists and feet to win the boxers of your regiment. I'm a fairy! I can't go all the way with you! If you are pleased, I will smash all the foreign gadgets at home on this street now, and from then on I will cut off the foreigners! Do you think, I'm a disciple of the horse, and I'm all the earth immortals cultivated by our Great Qing Kingdom, have I made Ermaozi? ”
When the Virgin heard this, she frowned, and her face did not look very good. She took off her cloak and handed it to Sai Tiangang's hand, moved her fists and feet, and said, "Even if you are not Ermaozi, you hurt our brother, this Liang Zi can't be said to be picked today." Since you are a disciple of the horse, I have a good relationship with you, if you lose, kowtow to my brother and admit your mistakes. If you win, I will bow to you, even if you are not a member of my Boxer, you will be my brother of Baihua from tomorrow! ”
Zhang Daxian is not a person who can't see the highs and lows. This Holy Mother blocked his door with hundreds of people, can he still be good if he wins? Ten or eight people, he Zhang Daxian doesn't pay attention to it, but a good tiger can't stand a group of wolves, and such old people don't know the grandma who can smoke him with a big mouth!
What's more, the hall that has just been turned over at home has not yet been smoothed, but almost the entire terracotta hall is famous on the hall list, and he has not yet had a king of soldiers! If it was easy to do a few days ago, and let Chang Qiu take advantage of it directly, a weak spiritual root would really not be taken seriously by Zhang Daxian. Not now! The spells of the immortal family cannot be used against mortals, but when it comes to fists and feet, none of them may be the opponent of the Holy Mother who invites the gods to come up.
It's better to be beaten less late! Zhang Daxian is also a bachelor, and made another gesture: "Holy Mother, don't mind, the little talent is shallow, and the immortal family's skills have not been learned, and they are indeed not your old man's opponent." I saw that the brothers who came to my house just now didn't come again, and you always took them to suffer, and I will kowtow to you a few times, and I will take me as an apology! ”
After speaking, Zhang Daxian didn't wait for others to react, he directly lifted the front hem of the long shirt, and knelt on the spot with a "poof", in front of the Boxers, and also in front of the lively old and young masters at the street entrance, "Bang, Bang, Bang" kowtowed three times!
"And then? What happened next? Seeing that Xiao Jiu didn't say anything, but picked up the tea and took a sip, Huzi asked urgingly.
"Brother Huzi, don't look at him, I'll talk about it later." The dog took over the conversation, "What kind of virgin is that, I was startled by Zhang Daxian, and said that Zhang Daxian was falling, and he burned yellow paper to slaughter the rooster on the spot, and worshiped him on the street!" ”
"Didn't you fight?" Huzi's face fell, "Then you guys are still talking about gods, how boring it is!" ”
Xiao Jiu put down the tea bowl, twisted a peanut and pointed at Huzi and said, "Huzi, let me tell you, you have to know what Zhang Daxian did before, you think this thing is surprising!" ”
"Isn't he just a brother? What's so strange? ”
"And what about before he went out? Do you know what to do? Xiao Jiu asked again. Now Huzi is in trouble, he is not a native of Changtu, and no one will tell him anything from the past, he only knows that since he came to Changtu Mansion to beat their master and apprentice, Zhang Daxian has done this business. So Huzi asked, "What did Zhang Daxian do before?" ”
Xiao Jiu looked at Huzi and asked, then he was happy, and said: "This Zhang Daxian said that his family was poor before, and he didn't live in such a good house as he lives now. ”
"And where did he get the money?" The dog asked, "His house looks better than mine!" ”
"Don't interrupt the dog, listen to Xiao Jiu." Huzi flicked the dog's arm, and then turned his head to Xiao Jiu, "You say, you go on." ”
Xiao Jiu said again: "Don't worry, listen to me slowly......"
Although this Zhang Daxian is poor in his family, he is bold! A person, borrowed some plates from a friend, and said that he was going to the north to do business! His friend not only pitied him, but also sent him away, and gave him money that would not be looked back, and let him go north!
Zhang Daxian walked all the way, and actually survived to Hailan Pao, where he started Lao Maozi's business! It is said that he got on a line with the local ruffians and smuggled all kinds of foreign goods back from Lao Maozi. At first, it was a rare thing that rich people liked, such as nesting dolls and pocket watches, and then they began to luck fortune and longevity cream when their hearts were lively!
"After coming and going, eight years of life, I really earned a family business, and it was also very beautiful when I returned to Fucheng that year!" Xiao Jiu lit the table and said, "Not to mention finding someone to build a house that doesn't look big, but it is really valuable, and I also gave him a lot of silver that he lent to his friend at the beginning!" Speaking of this, Xiao Jiusi looked down, turned his head and pressed his throat and said, "This tavern is the one whose friend took the money down, that is, the owner here." This small restaurant Zhang Daxian accounts for 20% of the dry shares! ”
"Then how is he so poor now?" Huzi asked, "He shows people things, but he wants to eat and take cards, and he doesn't have the bearing of a rich man!" ”
"You should know more about this than we do!" Xiao Jiu pretended to exaggerate and said, "Grind! What's the matter with the fairy family's grinding brother? Zhang Daxian shouldn't have it in his life, the ancestors of his family have worn out thousands of family fortunes and worn away his wife and children! ”
Huzi didn't feel happy when he heard Xiao Jiu's words, and when he heard that this Daxian was unlucky, Huzi felt that it was a very happy thing.
The Boxers have been gone for half a month, and Huzi's meditation and practice homework was stopped by Mr. Peng, so he finished practicing foreign kung fu every morning, and he could have fun all day long, even if he didn't go back to the mountain occasionally, as long as he said hello, Mr. Peng didn't care.
In the past, when there was such a loose time, Huzi can now have fun, and he walks down the mountain when he has nothing to do. Huzi, Gouzi, and Xiao Jiu are used to eating in this small restaurant, and they are also here every day.
"Little Er, bring a bowl of water!"
Huzi asked for a bowl of water, took out a paper bag from his sleeve, and opened it to fold several pieces of drawn rune paper neatly. He took a note and put it in the water, and the paper talisman burned when it met the water, turning into talisman ashes and floating on the water.
Huzi held the bowl and groaned for a while, frowned, closed his eyes, and swallowed all the water mixed with talisman ashes.
"How's it going?" Xiao Jiu was still joking about the tiger. Huzi was not annoyed, and replied with bared teeth: "Don't you know if you taste it?" ”
This rune paper is the medicine that Mr. Peng prescribed to Huzi. What the hell is it? Mr. Peng didn't say, and Huzi didn't ask, anyway, he swallowed it with water after lunch every day.
The dog beckoned Xiao Er to settle the accounts and checked, a total of eight eldest sons.
These children are not poor families. Mr. Peng is rich, but Mr. Peng has never spent money with Huzi, and Huzi is not stupid. Xiao Jiu is the young class owner of the Drum Tower, which is both a theater and a class, and there are many children who sell themselves to learn opera, can they have no money? Only with dogs? His family is one of the richest families in Changtu Mansion, otherwise how could he have fed a little fat man in such a year?
The eight eldest sons, if they are put in a poor family, they have to pay for a day's food, but these children are not distressed. Gouzi and Xiaojiu are used to being lavish on weekdays, but Huzi is because of the five taels of silver in hand, and he has also passed the addiction of the rich.
