Chapter 182: Street Persuasion

At the Gulangyu Ferry Terminal, many people gathered around to read the posters.

Some of the illiterate viewers couldn't help but beg: "Who knows what is written on it, read it to us?" ”

In the crowd of onlookers, no one paid attention to them, and everyone looked at themselves.

Chen Liren was strolling on the dock, and when he saw the crowd of onlookers, he also curiously squeezed in to read the notice.

Then the well-read man reads aloud:

On the issue of Gulangyu Island, you and other residents are not allowed to act outside the Gulangyu track.

1. All anti-Japanese publications, textbooks, slogans, newsletters, etc., are prohibited from circulation;

2. There shall be no anti-Japanese assemblies and associations;

3. It is forbidden to hang the blue sky and white sun flag in the public concession of Gulangyu Island;

4. No unauthorized firearms or explosives are allowed.

In case of any of the above-mentioned prohibited actions, they will be deported by this bureau or punished by the Japanese authorities.

When the onlookers heard this, they were immediately indignant.

Someone in the crowd proposed: "This is a Hong Kong sale agreement, and in disregard of the interests of the people on the island, we will jointly submit a letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and on the basis of reason, we will lodge a serious protest with Britain, the United States, and France, and ask the court to intervene on the spot." ”

Everyone immediately responded: "Okay, let's go together, and go together to ask for an explanation!" ”

Seeing this scene, Chen Liren smiled coldly and turned to leave the dock.

He went to the market in front of the pier again. There weren't many people in the bazaar, but a fortune teller next to him was conspicuous, the one with a mustache and sitting upright and watching every passerby idle.

"There are still people who tell fortunes these days, and I don't know what he is talking nonsense?" When Chen Liren thought of this, he walked curiously towards the fortune teller.

When the fortune teller saw Chen Liren coming, he waved his hand at him and said, "This gentleman, do you want to calculate a hexagram?"

Chen Liren looked at the fortune teller, who seemed to be familiar, so he sat down in front of the fortune teller.

"I just happened to pass by here, and it can be regarded as fate, even if it is a hexagram." Chen Liren sat down and said.

Fortune teller: The alleys are dark, and the wind is gone. Seeing that Mr. Yintang is dark, it seems that there is a disaster of blood and light. If you can trust the old man, you might as well test a word, and maybe you can turn evil into good fortune.

Chen Liren's face became gloomy.

Fortune teller: If you believe me, you can avoid disasters, just write a word!

Chen Liren hesitated, then picked up a pen and wrote the word "benevolence" on the paper.

The fortune teller closed his eyes and pinched his fingers to calculate, and then said: Childe is a man, and he is a corporal with benevolence. He is a man of love.

Chen Liren nodded.

The fortune teller went on to say, "Literally, the word ren is made up of the words 'ren' and 'two', and you should have two old friends. ”

Chen Liren couldn't help but nodded, and couldn't help asking: There is some truth in what you said, what else?

"You've already parted ways, though." The fortune teller said regretfully: "They are the nobles in your life, and it is a pity that they miss each other!" ”

Chen Liren showed a surprised expression, and he hurriedly asked, "What remedies can be done now?" ”

The fortune teller shook his head and continued: "Generally speaking, benevolence and justice go hand in hand, and although you are a righteous person, you have lost your righteous deeds, so you are very conflicted in your heart, and you often struggle in your heart, and your life is not easy. ”

Chen Liren was taken aback when he heard this, hurriedly reached out and took out his gun, pointed at the fortune teller and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The fortune teller looked at him and said, "Sir, don't be angry, the old man is really harmless, if you believe my words, I will tell you the truth, if you don't believe it, the right to be old and old people don't say it." ”

Chen Liren asked in a low voice, "Who are you?" ”

The fortune teller smiled: "I, like you, am a Chinese." ”

Chen Liren asked in a low voice, "What do you want to say to me?" ”

The fortune teller still said calmly: "The Japanese killed our compatriots, and you still worked as an errand for the Japanese, how can you be worthy of your own friends who died?" ”

Chen Liren slowly put away the gun after hearing this, sighed again and said: "In this world, who wants to be a real traitor, I just borrowed someone else's roof to hide from the rain." ”

The fortune teller replied, "Sir's words are wrong, the eaves of this shelter from the rain are very narrow and unreliable. If you hide for a while, you can hide for a lifetime! When the time comes, not only will you not be able to hide, but you will also drive sheep and herd wolves! ”

Chen Liren was ashamed when he heard this, and he said helplessly: "I'm ashamed to say it, the Japanese saved my life, and the soldier died for his confidant!" ”

The fortune teller said: "Sir's words are wrong, it is the Japanese who are using you to achieve the purpose of killing Chinese Chinese." If everyone thinks like you, they will end up being slaves! Isn't this historical lesson enough? Is it easy to live as a slave? Look at how aggrieved you are living now, not only to please the Japanese, but also to bow down in front of the 'two devils'. Can't your children and grandchildren blame you in the future? Any figure in history who betrayed the country and sought glory, who is not burdened with the infamy of thousands of generations? Are you willing to let your descendants be poked in the backbone for the rest of your life? Now the people of the whole country are fighting the war, Japan is a country of bullets, how can it defeat China, victory will come one day, at that time, what are you, and what is your family? Look at those who gave their lives to the Japanese, and how many of them didn't die at the hands of the Japanese in the end? The Japanese are the most ferocious, but they are also discredited, they are really beasts, how can they be trusted. ”

Chen Liren hesitated when he heard this.

The fortune teller continued to persuade: Look at little Japan, clamoring for three months to annex our China, but as a result, three years have passed, and they have ostensibly occupied a large area of China's territory, but in fact they only occupy a few cities and a few lines. Do you understand the truth of the snake swallowing the elephant, if Japan wants to annex China, it is impossible, they are doomed to failure, and sooner or later they will be driven out of China. ”

Chen Liren heard quietly.

After a pause, the fortune teller sneered: "You haven't heard that Lord Yama has sent an invitation - the end is coming." Due to the long-term war, Japan's gold reserves are now seriously scarce, and it can no longer afford to raise an army and can no longer meet the needs of the war, so it has engaged in a conspiracy strategy of 'using razing to defeat razing' and 'using war to feed war'. What Huang Xiejun is used a lot to play forwards, let the Chinese fight their own people. The choice you face is whether to continue to help the Japanese invaders fight their own people, or help your own people to fight the Japanese invaders?

Chen Liren lowered his head in shame.

"Sir is a person who understands, so you need to think it through. Pull back from the precipice, turn back to the shore! After speaking, the fortune teller stood up, took his suit, and quietly left.
