Chapter 31: White Lotus Sect + Red Lantern
(Thanks to Earth Shenhua, Mirage, GS Chaowei, and which moment for your tips and support)
After a steam train journey that was 'smooth in the process' and 'bumpy in the journey', everyone arrived at the provincial capital safely. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The so-called "provincial capital" is the current provincial capital, provincial capital, and provincial government station, and it is undoubtedly the political, economic, and cultural center of a province, where the largest population, the largest number of goods, and the largest number of bureaucratic merchants are concentrated...... And the most foreigners.
This may be very sorry for the local residents of the provincial capital, after all, the arrival of Westerners and Western capital has reduced them to second-class people, and their lives have become very difficult, and there are even evil deeds such as "selling piglets" in the past. But it is undeniable that these Westerners have injected new vitality into this decadent and backward city, which is undergoing a rapid "transformation".
Tradition is a good thing, and the martial arts and medical skills mastered by Huang Feihong are very worthy of inheritance, but this does not mean that they will always stick to the tradition and not accept the slightest new thing, to take the simplest example, even if the whole people practice martial arts, they still can't beat the guns of foreigners - because of this, the imperial court is working hard to carry out the "Westernization Movement", and the changes in the provincial capital are the manifestation of learning the skills of foreigners.
It's just that, according to Leeds' feelings, this "Westernization Movement" has many "regrets" from the macro to the micro.
At the very least, the general low level of knowledge of the people and their inability to understand the meaning of using foreigners as teachers hindered the progress of the reform. To put it mildly, two feudal and ignorant 'patriotic religions' have emerged here, and their actions are completely harmful and unhelpful; to put it mildly, Leeds has just gotten off the train and has collided head-on with these two 'patriotic religions' that are about to smash the train station, and this thing that is beneficial to the country and the people is about to be destroyed.
"โโHuh, I thought that Foshan, which was called 'foreign devils' by everyone, was enough to worry about it, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even save my life when I came to the provincial capital?" Liz shook her head and stepped forward...... Although the people originally came to demolish the train station, the passengers with Western faces, including him, undoubtedly pulled more hatred.
"Mr. Leeds!?" Huang Feihong hurriedly stopped Liz.
"Rest assured, I'm not angry enough to kill them yet...... It's just a long time to see how they react," Liz patted Huang Feihong on the shoulder and walked over to the side, "I suggest you also listen to this group of righteous people who claim to be 'helping to clear and destroy the ocean'." โ
"Ugh." In fact, Huang Feihong just forgot that Leeds is also a person who can fight, and he is worried that he will be in danger when he walks out.
As Leeds walked past the officers and soldiers guarding the railway station, who were trembling due to the numerical inferiority, and walked in front of the 'patriotic religious figures', the other party immediately carried out a series of ............ under the noses of the onlookers Uh, the show?
[The wind and the earth are coming together, killing the righteousness of foreigners, and now there is a white lotus to save the world, driving away the evil demons and passing them on to all generations, yaaaa~~]
On the left is a group of men who call themselves "White Lotus Sect" carrying white lanterns, holding white paper flowers, and scattering paper money around.
First of all, four shirtless men who ran out of the team held a large cluster of lit Buddha incense, two of them swept these Buddha incense on their bodies, and each time a spark burst out, and the other two were even more powerful, directly biting down the fiery Buddha incense with their mouths and chewing it in their mouths.
Then, there is a thin uncle who is dressed up more advanced and has a shirt to wear, and then with the strange cry of 'Yaya~~', his feet keep stepping on the ground.
In the end, two disciples came out with a red tasseled hat on the head of a horse in the air, and this person performed stepping on the brazier, carrying a knife and blocking bullets head-on, and finally responded to the cheers of the congregation with a majestic spirit.
[Fu Qing extinguishes the ocean, the red light shines, the gods and immortals, drives the foreign dogs, the law is boundless, the foreign gun, the sword, the holy land, the will is strong. ใ
On the right is a group of girls who call themselves "Red Lantern Zhao" with red lanterns in their hands, red paper flowers, and flower petals scattered around.
Their movements are much simpler, just a group of people dancing swords and throwing exploding red lotuses, 'crackling' is so lively.
After the sword dance, everyone began to stack arhats, and when the other girls were stacking arhats, a "Holy Maiden" who had been playing on the spinning table jumped out to perform front flips and backflips, and after dragging on enough time, they flexibly stepped on the shoulders of others and stood on the highest part of the stacked arhats to meet the applause of the audience.
Of course, the cheers and applause were limited to the melon-eating crowd who did not know the truth, and did not include Leeds and all those who were besieged.
โโฆโฆ I suddenly felt that I was not so ashamed of my lines and movements when I was playing high-level immortal arts......" Liz stared blankly at "The Holy Maiden", who was performing the spinning plate scene again.
The shirtless man performs with Buddha incense, which means that he is invulnerable; The thin uncle is stepping on the ground, which means that he is doing his work; A series of performances of "Nine Palaces Real People", which means that they have miraculous skills to protect their bodies; The explosion of the red lotus, that means it's a spell...... But what the arhats and the turntable want to express, he, a person from another world, can't understand!
โโฆโฆ Whew, no matter," said Leeds, who had watched a circus performance by himself, "Is it true that "Nine Palaces Real People" and "The Holy Maiden"? Can you hear me say a few words? โ
"What?! Youkai can actually speak human language? โ
"The white-haired monster dares to steal the words of a scholar?!"
Obviously, they had never met a foreigner who could speak Chinese before.
โโฆโฆ You guys, you really know how to chat...... "Fortunately, I'm just a 'game character', and since I'm not human, there's nothing to complain about being called a 'monster'," So, are you planning to talk to me, a 'monster', or are you going to directly order the disciples to 'kill demons'...... But I think most people want to hear what my 'monster' says~" Liz looked around and motioned to the group of melon-eating people.
The people who eat melons said that they had never seen foreign devils who could speak Chinese, fresh~~ Say a few more words~~
"Just a monster, why be afraid!"
"Let this holy woman meet you!"
For the sake of their denomination's reputation, and for the sake of more believers in the future, they naturally have to respond to this expectation.
"Then I'm coming," Liz didn't bother to go around in circles with this group of guys who opened their mouths and closed their mouths as 'monsters', and got straight to the point, "First, I want to say that the world is very big, and there are many countries out there, and only eight of them have invaded your Qing Dynasty...... That's right, I'm not a person from these eight aggressor countries at all, I'm just a foreign tourist who came to the Qing Dynasty to travel, and I can also be said to be an 'international friend'. "It's a bit of a lie, but Leeds is not from those eight countries, yes.
"Hmph, there is a demonic spirit, and there is more than innocent death!" "Nine Palaces Real People" is full of righteousness.
โโฆโฆ That's how it should be! "There seems to be hesitation on the side of "The Holy Maiden", but this hesitation is only for a moment...... It's also said that the life of a strange Westerner has nothing to do with her.
"I see~" Liz didn't argue, he didn't really want people to let him live, "Second, your slogan is 'help clear and destroy the ocean' and 'save the people', right?" There are foreign warships along the coast, and they are full of foreign soldiers, and those are the main culprits of aggression against your country, so why don't you go and deal with them, and in turn against us, the civilians? โ
"Only by destroying the monsters that walk in the world can we save the people!"
"Step by step, invigorate my China."
"It's amazing, it's obviously picking soft persimmons and pinching them, and they all say it so justifiably," the onlookers may be mentally retarded, and they were really fooled by the two, but when Liz said this, a bunch of people were snickering, proving that the guiding role is still there, "Third, if you love the country, you should be patriotic, why pretend to be a ghost?" It's "Nine Palaces Real People" and "The Holy Maiden", it's to cheat believers out of sesame oil money, right? โ
"Demon, how dare you slander the palace specially supported by the lifeless old mother!" Sensing that he couldn't let Lez talk anymore, "Nine Palaces Real People" flew in, and even used a trick to press the bottom of the box, throwing out the dust, "White Lotus Blossoms!" Pressing the mechanism, the whisk suddenly stretched out a slender iron needle.
"Heh~" flicked the opponent's arm with the move of "Transferring Flowers and Connecting Jade", so that the "Nine Palaces Real People" who were still in the air turned uncontrollably, exposing his completely unguarded back, "The world's martial arts-"
"Divine Protection!" Grit your teeth and puff up, and use hard qigong.
"-Out of the Ascending Dragon!"
(Bang!) ๏ผ
"Poofโโ! "Nine Palaces Real People" spurted out a mouthful of reverse blood, and the body was thrown upwards for several meters like being knocked away, and finally fell to the ground like rotten meat.
The martial arts world has gnawed a lot of attribute books, and the level of the peerless world has increased significantly, and Liz can now lift a car to play, his fists are heavy enough to break through the walls, and the hard qigong can't withstand it!
โโฆโฆ Yes...... Ah...... "However, the hard qigong practice is not a loss, and it is good that it is not killed with one punch."
"Real people!?" Shocked the crowd.
"So let's just say it's pretending to be a ghost," Liz squatted down and looked at this "Nine Palaces Real People", "I can't see the trick of fanning myself with Buddha incense, swallowing Buddha incense and stepping on the brazier, but ordinary people can survive by gritting their teeth, and they are just burned; Invulnerable, isn't it hard qigong, I just met a person named [SD Iron Cloth Shirt Xu Zhendong] a few days ago, he is also invulnerable; As for blocking bullets...... Hehe~~"
Liz picked something off the body of "Nine Palaces", which barely resisted but had no effect, and threw it on the ground, "Actually, you don't need this layer of white cloth full of ghost drawings, just the thick iron plate inside can block bullets, don't you think so?" โ
"What?!" Whether it is the sound of the floor or the appearance, no matter how you look at it, it is a thick iron plate...... What else is there not to understand about this?
In other words, except for the disciples who were responsible for firing the guns and some cronies, many members of the "White Lotus Sect" were surprised...... The god of my heart rolled down from the altar.
"And you," Liz turned to look at The Holy Maiden, "I won't talk about stacking arhats and turntables, I don't know what the point is, what does it mean to wrap a layer of red paper lotus on the outside of the gunpowder pack?" Can you play origami and think you are a fairy? "Lez, the person who can move mountains and recruit thunder, is a real-immortal, I'm sorry.
"You โโ!" "Red Lantern Shine" looked panicked, which is different from the exclusive 'Divine Skill and Body Protection' performance of "Nine Palaces Real People", all of them have to use this 'spell', and naturally know its essence.
"If you are not convinced, unfold a red lotus flower and let everyone see if it is gunpowder or a charm...... Oh, of course, if it's a spell, please fold it again and let it explode again for everyone to see, I'm worried that you've already prepared to fool people's red lotus~" Liz sneered, and even other people's retreats were blocked between the words.
"Yes, yes, show us~~"
"If you want to see it~~ I'll just say, where does the smell of gunpowder come from~"
"Beautiful fairy, if it's just origami, I'll too, let me also enter "Red Lantern Illumination"~~"
The melon-eating masses who originally wanted to watch "White Lotus Sect" and "Red Lantern Zhao" smashed the train station immediately became melon-eating people watching the jokes of "White Lotus Sect" and "Red Lantern Zhao".
"............" and "The Holy Maiden" were silent, and all the members of "Red Lantern" were also silent against the joking eyes of all the onlookers.
It can only be said that if they had the ability to make the rune paper explode, then Lez would not have been blocked from "Immortal Arts" in this world, and the system would have already evaluated the power system of this world.
"Hey, don't be silent, I still have one last point to ask......" Liz's interlocutor no longer includes the "Nine Heavenly True People" who got up on the ground in embarrassment and staggered back to the believers, "Holy Maiden", do you really think that the civilians who killed foreigners and smashed the things that the Qing government funded for the benefit of the country and the people can 'help the Qing Dynasty and destroy the foreigners'?" โ
"............" continued to be silent.
It's not that she is weak in her heart and doesn't dare to give an answer, but she is afraid that Liz will use the topic to play again and trample on the "Red Lantern" she believes in.
"Hmph, boring...... Anyway, it's just to collect sesame oil money casually, and mess around while enjoying the happiness," Liz smiled disdainfully, turned around and returned to the team, "If you want to kill with all your might, come on, anyway, we have Foshan Huang Feihong here, one beats you a thousand, how many fights come, who is afraid of whom." โ
โ๏ผ๏ผ๏ผโ Master Huang pointed at himself, when was he so awesome that he could hit a thousand? Why didn't he know it himself!
"Ah, that's right," Liz stopped, "A suggestion to you, what happened today is only known to the people here, if you kill us and the onlookers over there, the reputation of your "White Lotus Sect" and "Red Lantern" will not decline~"
โโฆโฆ๏ผโ
โโฆโฆ Ha? โ
No, although they are cults, they will not chase and kill the common people on the street in broad daylight...... These are potential believers!
However...... The stupid common people don't know about it.
"Ahhh
"Help...... Don't push me, huhโโ! โ
They dispersed in a hurry, what happened here, what Leeds said, must have been able to reach the provincial capital quickly, right?
Ignoring all this, Liz continued to walk back, and stopped when he was about to pass by Huang Feihong, "No matter how powerful the mouth cannon is, it still has to be fought, and they will wait for a 'gossip to confuse the public'...... It's up to you, and we won't do it if they don't rush into the train station. โ
โโฆโฆ Well. โ
"Don't blame me for being ruthless, being reasonable, let you be cut down for no reason, and you will also kill back, right? I'll give you Qing Dynasty people the words to do it yourself, how to be merciful to your own hands, come on~"
"Come on?" Master Huang didn't understand.
"Ah, that's what it means to 'fight well.'"
"I see, I see!" Huang Feihong nodded, stepped forward, and walked out in place of Leeds.
Sure enough, even if the leaders of the two organizations were completely crushed by Liz's mouth, it still didn't seem to have stopped today's action.
โโฆโฆ Foshan Huang Feihong will not let you fake immortal names of demons and evil people step into the train station half a step! โ
Some things, even if the process and result are the same, are done by different people, and the response is completely different.
Huang Feihong is a national hero when he runs away from the cult, and Leeds is a traitor when he runs away from the cult - well, a certain egg is indeed cowardly. (To be continued.) )
