Wei Qiang had a very lively chat with Master Huiyuan. This worldly master who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests has a unique and in-depth understanding of the country, nation and people. However, he doesn’t know much about the underground party of the Chinese Communist Party. This was also the reason why he knew so much about the underground party of the Chinese Communist Party.
The reason why Qian Jun was sent to apply for the Huangpu Military Academy.
Wei Qiang changed the subject and brought the topic to the current situation, asking: "I wonder what Master Huiyuan thinks about the Japanese invasion of our country? In other words, will China be subjugated?"
"A huge country, a country that has lasted for five thousand years, was destroyed by a small Japan? What a joke!" Master Huiyuan said angrily: "When a small Japan attacks China, it is actually because the people of the country are weak and the snake swallows the elephant. With their small country,
Even if China is defeated, how will it be governed? For now, with their strong economic and military strength, they are indeed stronger than China. But after they occupy China, how will they govern it? Each town only needs to send a hundred Japanese
, have they finished digesting their entire population? And these one hundred Japanese will be easily wiped out by us Chinese. I heard that the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army fought behind enemy lines, causing the Japanese to suffer miserably. They
They are good at fighting guerrilla warfare and run away after fighting. If all of China were like the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army to fight against the Japanese, would people be able to stay in China?"
Master Huiyuan's views are actually very similar to "On Protracted War". Wei Qiang has to admire him. Don't think that he lives outside the world and only knows how to chant bells in the morning and chant Buddhist scriptures in the evening!
"Master Huiyuan, I am a layman. I usually run a small business and it is difficult to even make ends meet. I really don't dare to talk about national affairs. But after listening to your words today, I suddenly feel enlightened. I don't have much brains, but
I am still very patriotic. If I had the opportunity to attack Japan, I might rush in and kill a few Japanese to satisfy my hatred."
Wei Qiang was pretending to be cool, so Master Huiyuan stared at his face with bright eyes, looked at him carefully, and said: "You are not a common person, nor a bad person. You are a strong man. The strength hidden deep inside
As for who you are, I can’t tell. But I can be sure that you are not a bad person. Otherwise, I would not have left you in the temple overnight. Even if I left you, I could easily subdue the two of you.
The reason why I didn't do that is, firstly, because I, the Buddha, is compassionate. Monks have compassion. Secondly, because you are not a bad person by nature. I don't believe you would attack an innocent person."
The words "The strong man hiding in the depths" shocked Wei Qiang slightly. Thinking about it carefully, he was an agent lurking behind enemy lines. Master Huiyuan was really fooled. This old mage was simply a mastermind.
Yeah. He has a very unique way of looking at people.
Wei Qiang originally brought up Qian Jun's matter, but he held it back in the end. The old master was a person who valued opportunities very much. Speaking of it before the fate came, would only make things more difficult. Such a big Baolin Temple
, there are more than a dozen buildings, and it is very easy to hide a Longquan Sword. If there are mechanisms and secret passages inside, the possibility of finding the Longquan Sword is even lower. As long as the sword is still on Chinese soil,
Then it is a Chinese thing.
Thinking of this, Wei Qiang stood up and said goodbye to Master Huiyuan. If the conversation continued, his identity might be exposed.
Wei Qiang and Luo Xin slept in the temple until dawn. After waking up, they simply washed up and said goodbye to the old master.
"Wait a minute, I'll give you two strings of Buddhist beads. I wish you good luck in your life."
Master Huiyuan took out two strings of sandalwood Buddhist beads from the incense table and gave one to each person. Wearing the Buddhist beads given by the Master around their necks, the two of them happily went down the mountain and looked at a pile of ruins at the entrance of Qianjia Village.
This pile of ruins had obviously been hit by a fire. The ruins were in ruins and pitch black. An old farmer was bending down to clean something in the ruins.
Wei Qiang was moved by what he saw. He walked up and asked, "Uncle, why did this house burn down?"
The man from his hometown was Qian Laoliu, with a sad look on his face. When he saw the two men in front of him, they were still wearing Buddhist beads around their necks. They were pilgrims who came to the temple to worship Buddha. Those who burned incense and worshiped Buddha were all people with good intentions.
Qian Laoliu didn't have any hostility towards them, but told him frankly: "The fire the night before yesterday was really inexplicable, and my house was burned to the ground. If the villagers hadn't saved us, we would have been even worse."
The night before yesterday? That was the first day before Qian Jun and Lian Buzhichi left. Why did a fire happen at such a clever time?
Wei Qiang said with concern: "Ordinary families are really devastated by a fire."
"Who says it's not the case! Everything we eat and use at home has been reduced to ashes. The remaining scorched earth is inedible. Fortunately, Qian Jun donated ten yuan to me and asked me to go to the mountains to cut down some trees and hire someone to help me.
Build another house.”
Wei Qiang threw a Laodao cigarette to Qian Laoliu and asked curiously: "Who is Qian Jun? Why is he so good?"
"He is a big celebrity in our village. He studied martial arts with Master Huiyuan when he was five years old. He was admitted to the Huangpu Military Academy at the age of twenty. I heard that he would be a high official in the central government. He is young and promising, and he is good to the villagers. The villagers look at him
He, who doesn’t give a thumbs up?”
"Oh, that's good."
Wei Qiang and Qian Laoliu chatted for a while, basically understood the cause and effect of the fire, and left Qianjia Village.
After walking out of the village entrance, he looked back at Qianjia Village and felt that the village was more like a cloth bag. It was easy to get in and difficult to get out. If something happened, all he had to do was tie the mouth of the cloth bag at the entrance of the village tightly, that is, close the door and beat the dog. Wei Qiang
It is almost certain that the fire at Qian Laoliu's house was set by the Japanese. Lian Buzhichi deliberately set a fire to mess up Qian's village, and then took advantage of the chaos to go to Qian Jun's house and steal the Longquan Sword!
Judging from the calm attitude of Master Huiyuan, the Longquan sword should still be in Baolin Temple. There is only one possibility, that what Lian Bu Zhichi stole must be a fake sword. This is Qian Jun's clever move.
He was worried that this sword would attract the Japanese to come to Qianjia Village to burn, kill and loot, so he might as well give them a favor and let them return with a full load.
Wei Qiang didn't know what exactly happened. But the general clues were clear, which strengthened his conjecture. There was no need for them to stay in Xiangshan County. Longquan Sword was still safe for the time being.
On the way home, Luo Xin asked dissatisfiedly: "Master, are we going back like this?"
Wei Qiang asked back: "What else do you want to do?"
"How can we report to Secretary Deng when we leave empty-handed and dejected?"
"Well, you don't need to go to Xiangshan County. I will explain it clearly. Just remember it. You just followed me to Xiangshan County for a trip. You don't know anything else."
Luo Xin scratched his ears depressedly, wondering how much information the master had hidden from him.
