Chapter Twenty-Eight: Morning Exercise
As the morning sun poured into Bao Zhilin, Gu Li and Huang Feihong looked at the fiery red sun rising in the east. As the sun rises high, the sun becomes more and more dazzling.
The streets are filled with early risers and noisy footsteps.
"Master Huang is early."
"I've seen Master Huang."
......
Several young and middle-aged men with strong bodies and white robes walked into Bao Zhilin one after another, and greeted Huang Feihong with their hands in fists.
They were members of the militia group, and they got up early to practice and passed by Bao Zhilin, so they came to greet them. Huang Feihong is the head of the militia group and the head of the Black Flag Army. It is his responsibility to lead people to exercise in the morning every day.
"Good morning, good morning." Huang Feihong raised his hand and greeted everyone in return. Seeing the arrival of the militia brothers, Huang Feihong knew that the time for morning exercise had come, so he waved his hand: "Let's go." ”
"Master, I want to go too." Seeing that Huang Feihong was about to leave, Gu Li was itchy and wanted to go to practice together.
"Don't mess around, who will take care of Lin Shirong when you leave?"
"Senior brothers will take care of Lin Shirong for me." Gu Li had already thought of a reason, and looked at Huang Feihong pitifully with hopeful eyes.
"Okay, keep up." Huang Feihong was helpless, in his eyes, Gu Li was determined to learn martial arts.
On the street, Wong Fei Hung walked ahead, and from time to time men in white robes joined the team. When Guli walked out of the city, the people of the militia lined up in a long line, about 100 people.
Coulee mingled in the crowd, looking left and right. Everyone around him was full of vitality and heroic. A group of big men ran side by side, and Coulee was like returning to his school days, his face full of curiosity.
"Brother, looking good-eyed, it's new, right?" Next to him, a man in his mid-thirties, with a thick beard and thick arms.
"Well, I just came to Foshan a few days ago, and I studied medicine with Master Huang in Baozhilin." Gu Li explained to the big man.
"Oh, Master Huang's apprentice, you are really blessed." As soon as he heard that it was Huang Feihong's apprentice, his Chinese tone immediately became more respectful, and there was a sour taste in his mouth.
"What do you mean by that?" Coulee wondered.
Dahan rolled his eyes and said with a sad face: "The current Foshan is calm on the surface, but in fact it is turbulent. Local forces are rising, treacherous and evil are doing evil, and gangs are numerous. The court was degenerate, military discipline was abolished, and it only recognized interests and ignored the people. Ordinary people like us are oppressed. Fortunately, Master Huang formed a militia group, and everyone united as one, which gave us more to rely on. ”
Seeing that the big man was full of sorrow and sighed, Gu Li was helpless in his heart.
At this time, Foshan was a treaty port town, and there were infiltrators from Western powers. There are foreign forces in the country that are intertwined, mixed with fish and dragons, colluding with officials and officials to oppress the people, and only want to make a fortune in the country.
The people who kept to themselves were oppressed and miserable. That's why so many people joined the militia and won a protection by virtue of Huang Feihong's prestige.
"This big brother, there are many brothers in our militia group, united as one, can't we live a stable life?" Gu Li was puzzled, since the big man in front of him had joined the militia group, it stands to reason that life should be getting better and better. But his tone was melancholy, his mood was low, and it was obvious that life was not going well.
"I work at the docks, and I do some hard work with my body. But recently, the people of the Shahe Gang have blatantly robbed the people. At the end of the day, I didn't do enough work to pay for a meal. ”
The Sand River Gang has appeared in the Wong Fei Hung movie series. As a port town, Foshan needs a large number of laborers. The neighboring Shahe people came to Foshan to beg for a living, and organized a gang of their own.
People from other places have come to Foshan, and there are too many manpower, which will naturally cause contradictions and disputes.
"Don't you care about the dock merchants? What about the brothers of the vigilante group? Gulee asked.
"Merchants want to operate steadily, and whoever has great power will hire whomever they want. The Shahe Gang grabbed the life, and the militia brothers were definitely unwilling. We have fought with the Shahe Gang more than once, but there are many of them, and there are many people with strong martial arts, and each time we have lost the upper hand. ”
"Looks like I'm going to have to find a new job, and the family is still waiting for me to raise." Dahan said a little sadly.
The militia is organized by Huang Feihong, and the brothers in the group are being bullied, so they should find Huang Feihong to solve it.
"Why don't you ask Master Huang for help?"
"Master Huang is kind and generous, helping the poor to see a doctor. If there are brothers in difficulty in the regiment, he will help them. We owe Master Huang too much, and trivial matters like this are usually solved by the militia brothers themselves. ”
"If you want to blame yourself, you can't blame yourself for being inferior to others, so I follow Master Huang every morning exercise. Little brother, follow Master Huang well. Dahan clenched his fist at Gu Li and stopped talking.
Dahan is right, only by enriching himself can he not be afraid of everything.
Gu Li remembered the slap he received in the Qingnan Martial Arts Hall, the contemptuous eyes of the fierce young man, and clenched his fists tightly.
The early morning breeze blows in your face and the waves crash against the soft sand. Several conspicuous warships are docked on the seashore, and they are extremely large. The Black Flag Army, dressed in a blue uniform, stood motionless on the beach, echoing the blue sea.
The military discipline is neat and well-trained, which is the feeling of Coulee at first sight.
Gu Li followed Huang Feihong, and more than 100 militia brothers scattered one after another, standing side by side with the Black Flag Army.
"Asu, the first day you come, let's take a look at the side first."
"Okay master." Gu Li held his head high, looked at the mighty team in front of him, and ascended to heaven with pride in his heart.
Huang Feihong stood at the front of the team, his back straight, his hands pinned behind his back, and he opened his mouth. The deep voice blew into everyone's ears with the sea breeze, and the sound was like a bell.
"The black flag goes out, and there is no grass. The division of the tiger and the prestige of our country. The eight big characters are like thunder, full of blood and boiling.
Huang Feihong's body shape changes, his fist is wrong, one move and one style, and he has a board and an eye. Hundreds of people in the back floated like shadows, dancing with Huang Feihong's figure.
Similar to the military boxing in the army, under the training of Huang Feihong, the Black Flag Army and the militia brothers are all alive and vigorous, and their neat body style is reflected in Gu Li's eyes and shocks the soul.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu Li suddenly remembered the theme song of Wong Fei Hung's movie.
"Men should be self-reliant, arrogant in the face of thousands of waves. The blood is like the red sun, and the courage is like iron and bones, like steel......"
The lyrics are very much in line with the scene in front of you, the red sun rising in the east, the rolling waves of the sea. The Black Flag Army and the militia brothers, all with broad shoulders and round waists, iron arms and copper fists, and a body of horizontal muscles.
"I work hard to be a good man, be a good man, every day to be self-reliant, hot-blooded men are brighter than the sun, let the sea and the sky gather energy for me, to open the world for my ideals to break through, the blue waves are high, and see the blue sky is vast and mighty, I am a man when self-improvement......"
Gu Li couldn't help but sing loudly, and the bad problem of stumbling in his speech disappeared together.
