Chapter Thirty-Six: The Bloody Battle of Kowloon
Kowloon Walled City.
Qin Beiyang climbed to the top of the building. The moon disappeared into the thick clouds, and the Lion Rock on this shore and the Taiping Mountain on the other side were all in darkness, except for the Kowloon Walled City under his feet, which had been surrounded by lights. Thousands of Hong Kong police, heavily armed British garrisons, and Indian troops in turbans are storming the Kowloon Walled City. Isn't this city Chinese territory? Why did the British authorities in Hong Kong come in? The Chinese residents of the city drew their weapons and prepared to block the entry of the British, fearing that their slums would be demolished.
A loudspeaker sounded outside the city, and first the Chinese sheriff shouted in Cantonese; The British sheriff shouted in English, and Qin Beiyang, who learned English in Japan, only understood a rough idea, including words such as "arrest" and "fugitive"; In the end, a Chinese sheriff came, and he actually shouted Shandong dialect. It turned out that the Hong Kong police had a "Shandong cha", recruited from the Weihaiwei colony, and the later Hong Kong chief executive Leung Chun-ying was a descendant of the Weihaiwei police.
Qin Beiyang's mother is a native of Weihai, Shandong, he has learned Shandong dialect from his father since he was a child, and there are also Shandong people selling baked cakes in the camel village in the western suburbs of Beijing, and he immediately understood the sheriff's shouting - this operation is not a forced demolition, all the residents of the Kowloon Walled City have come out, and the police are coming to search for the wanted criminal, the criminal is very vicious, and the harborer is immediately arrested and prosecuted.
The Kowloon Walled City, which has no regard for three things, is finally about to be managed by the British authorities in Hong Kong for once, and it has to risk violating China's sovereignty and triggering diplomatic disputes. The British are so excited, as if a world war has broken out again, what kind of wanted criminal?
Lao Jin appeared, covered in alcohol and fat powder, stumbled to Qin Beiyang's side, knelt down and said, "Master, these bastards are here to arrest me!" ”
"Because...... The assassination of the Hong Kong Governor's Palace in Xinhai? ”
"Fuck! Eleven years have passed, and these Britons still remember it! I thought that the brothers of the triad were all brave and loyal, but I didn't expect that now the world has changed! These grandsons sold my old gold for the sake of the bounty! ”
"How do you know that the Triad betrayed you?"
"Those two little Japanese just now smashed and drugged me on the bed! Fortunately, Lao Jin and I went south and north, saw a lot of things, reined in the precipice, and had no lust fandom, so I got out of the encirclement! Otherwise, the little head will kill the big head! ”
Qin Beiyang sneered twice. Although the discipline of the Kingdom of Heaven is strict, so that abstinence and penance are practiced, it cannot prevent his subordinates from indulging their desires in the "south and north", which shows that Taibai Mountain, which is known as "the heart is as solid as a rock", is nothing more than that.
"What then?" Zhongshan is a child in the end, and his legs and stomach are already trembling, "Since someone betrayed him, there will inevitably be a traitor who will guide the British devils to arrest us." ”
Before the words were spoken, a large number of Hong Kong British military and police had rushed into the Kowloon Walled City, dragged all the Chinese residents out, confiscated weapons and contraband, and screened and checked them one by one according to the portraits on the wanted notices.
A large number of police dogs and wolfdogs also came. Although the rooms and corridors in the slums are as dense as cobwebs and like a labyrinth of tombs, the police will not let go of each one, and they are about to climb to the commanding heights of the Kowloon Walled City.
"Are you ready?"
Qin Beiyang pointed to the city wall a hundred steps away, and Lao Jin frowned: "Master, you mean you want us to jump over?" ”
"Haven't you all learned the light skills in 'Assassin's Dao'?"
"But that's too far away, isn't it? It's more than twice the limit of light work! ”
"Here's this!" Qin Beiyang pulled out three bamboo poles from the roof, "Use this ferry, divide it into two jumps, and you can reach the city wall!" ”
Lao Jin took the bamboo pole for drying clothes and waved it in mid-air, with a length of more than three meters.
"Don't hesitate! Nine colors jump first! ”
There is no need for language communication between Qin Beiyang and the tomb beasts in the town, and they understand each other. The nine-colored beast that turned into the tomb beast of the young Qilin Town immediately jumped and rushed from the highest peak of the Kowloon Walled City to the ground where the military and police were dense.
The fire unicorn rushed into the crowded night. The British troops, thinking that a cannonball was coming, fled one after another, and the city was in chaos. Nine colors landed steadily on the ground, like a wild cat jumping off the roof, with flames on the tip of its tail.
The police only noticed that it was a strange animal. First, the police dog barked wildly and rushed up, and the nine colors only stared at the dark green eyes, and some kind of low growl rolled in their throats. The several spirit stones in its body gathered the power of the East China Sea evil dragon, the boy and the girl, the eagle-headed goddess, the red mountain jade dragon, the sweat and blood horse, and other tomb beasts. The German blackbacks squeaked like rats and wailed and hugged their heads, which instead swept the Hong Kong police into pieces. The red-turbaned Indian Sikh troops opened fire on the Nine Colors, and the young Kirin Town Tomb Beast spewed out a glass fireball, fluttering around the Chinese police, and headed for the British and Indian soldiers.
The Kowloon Walled City has become a hell on earth......
On the highest roof, taking advantage of the chaos below, Qin Beiyang performed the "Assassin Dao" light skill, holding a bamboo pole to dry clothes, and flew out dozens of feet away. He also carried a three-foot Tang knife, a cross bow, and a Luoyang shovel. He propped up the ground with a bamboo pole, like a pole vault at the Olympic Games, regained his strength, and flew forward dozens of feet before landing on the wall of the Kowloon Walled City.
Zhongshan is a young man, with a light body, and it is not bad to practice the "Assassin's Way", such as the method of concocting, exerting the light skill of flying on the ground, plus the continuous strength of the bamboo pole to support the ground, barely climbing the city wall.
Old Kim's weight has become a big problem, and he still carries a big burden and a miner's pickaxe on his shoulders. The Hong Kong police had climbed onto the roof, and he was the culprit of the British authorities in Hong Kong, who had offered a reward of 100,000 pounds, so he had to jump.
Lao Jin tried his best, and the clothes pole only reached one-third. Jiu Se rushed over quickly, caught the bamboo pole with his back, and threw it forward again......
The strength of the town's tomb beast is infinite, and the bamboo pole is flexible, like a slingskin bow, turning the old gold into a projectile and rushing towards the city wall in a parabola. Fortunately, Qin Beiyang stretched out his arms to greet him, otherwise Lao Jin would have to blossom on the city wall.
Frightened, the Hong Kong police found them on the city walls. Jiu Se directly slammed his antlers into the city wall, knocking out a big hole in the Kowloon Walled City. After all, the wall is low and dilapidated, unmaintained for more than 20 years, and many bricks have been torn down to make way into slums, making it vulnerable to attack.
Qin Beiyang jumped down and rode right on the back of the nine colors. I only walked a few steps, but I found that there was no way out. There is a dark sea in front, and there are chasing soldiers of the British authorities in Hong Kong. He raised his crossbow and prepared for a decisive battle.
Lao Jin said like a man: "Master, this is the trouble I caused, let me carry it alone." You and Zhongshan and Jiuse go first, and after I break off, even if you are shot to death indiscriminately, it will not affect the master. ”
"How can I abandon my partner?"
While Qin Beiyang was talking arrogantly, Zhongshan pointed to the light by the water: "It seems that there is a ship!" ”
A dhow with a canopy cabin in the middle, a high raised stern and a narrow hull suitable for seafaring. Everyone jumped up. There was only one old man and a young girl on board, and Lao Jin drew a dagger and put it on the old man's neck, forcing him to hurry to sail out to sea.
Qin Beiyang rowed with Zhongshan, and the moonlight was also swallowed by dark clouds. When we reach the center of Victoria Harbour, the Chinese stiff sails are raised. Nine Colors is tireless, and its green eyes are fixed on both sides of Victoria Harbour, with only the silhouette of Victoria Peak on Hong Kong Island.
Lao Jin threw fifty pieces of ocean to the boatman. The old man had never seen so much money in his life, and thought that the God of Wealth had fallen from the sky, so he skillfully steered the sails and bypassed Ilha Verde, the westernmost point of Hong Kong Island, and crossed the West Lama Strait between Lamma Island and Lantau Island.
