Less than ten minutes after leaving the train station, Lin Tianqi and his party were forced to stop because the street in front was blocked. A team that looked like students blocked in front of a government office.
Shouting slogans such as "Oppose civil war," "Don't be used by warlords," and "Oppose someone", there seemed to be hundreds of people blocking the street in front of the government office.
They held signs and flags high in their hands, shouted slogans, and even many excited people threw things directly at the door of the government office. The scene was noisy and chaotic, and the street in that area was directly blocked.
"Has it always been like this here in Peiping?" Lin Tianqi turned to Xu Renjie and asked. Xu Renjie shook his head: "It didn't happen before, but it has been like this since the Northern Expeditionary Army started its northern expedition again in January."
"It is said that the Northern Expeditionary Army is coming. The fighting on the front line is fierce, and the foreigners are restless, especially the Japanese side. Now the whole of Peiping is in chaos. There is a turmoil above, and below, it is even more chaotic, just like in front of you.
"Xu Renjie said, looking at the team of students in front of him, he said with emotion: "Sometimes I admire them very much, they are so passionate, but they feel so worthless."
"I admire their spirit, their courage and their blood, but I don't completely agree with this method of behavior, because, I think, in this world, strength determines everything after all. Without strength, no matter how much blood and courage you have, your life will be in vain.
, it will not have any impact on those people above, so I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, striving to reach the top, hoping to become stronger."
"Because I feel that whether it is a person, a nation, or a country, if it wants to rise, it can only decide everything by relying on its own fist, and the fist is strong enough."
When Lin Tianqi heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Xu Renjie in surprise. Xu Renjie's thoughts coincided with his. Li Manhong, who was behind the car, heard this and interrupted -
"Unfortunately, there are internal and external troubles at home. Not only are the foreigners outside looking at us with eager eyes, but our own people at home are also divided among themselves, and civil wars continue."
Li Manhong's cold face showed a rare expression of emotion. Looking at the scene in front of her, her expression was touched. This era is undoubtedly difficult for Chinese people.
"What do we in Wumen think about these situations?" Lin Tianqi's expression moved slightly and he asked, asking about Wumen's current situation in the country.
"Is there an inclination direction?" Lin Tianqi asked again, asking a more sensitive question.
Xu Renjie and Li Manhong looked at each other after hearing this, then looked at Lin Tianqi, and said after a while: "Mr. Lin will officially enter our martial arts sect tomorrow. Although he has not officially entered, he can be regarded as one of his own.
Since Mr. Lin has asked, there is no harm in telling Mr. Lin. In fact, right now, there is no specific tilt direction in my Wumen."
"This is mainly because of what happened to Yuan Shikai back then. The previous generation of sect leaders also blamed themselves and died in depression... Even now, our Wu sect has no specific target to lean toward."
Xu Renjie said, telling Lin Tian about Qi Wumen's situation, Wumen actually supported Yuan Shikai back then, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shikai was ambitious and wanted to become emperor. Although Wumen drew a line with Yuan Shikai after seeing Yuan Shikai's ambition at that time, that time
This incident had a huge impact on the momentum of Wumen, so that for so many years after Yuan Shikai, Wumen did not have a specific direction of tilt.
Because I am worried that I have misjudged the wrong person, and I am worried that the person I help will become the next Yuan Shikai.
"But now, Deputy Sect Master Huo has a favorable impression of the Northern Expeditionary Army and has had contacts and meetings with senior officials of the Northern Expeditionary Army."
Xu Renjie added, telling Lin Tianqi about the situation. One of the two deputy sect leaders of Wumen is Huo Qiubai and the other is Wang Baxian.
"Mr. Lin needs to pay attention to Deputy Sect Master Wang after he enters Wumen." Suddenly, Li Manhong, who was sitting in the back and said little, suddenly interjected, looking at Lin Tianqi: "This time Mr. Lin entered Wumen, only one of the top executives
Deputy sect leader Wang had the loudest objection because of Mr. Lin’s feud with Japan in Tianjin, so deputy sect leader Wang had a strong objection to Mr. Lin’s entry.”
Xu Renjie's expression changed immediately after hearing this. Lin Tianqi also moved his eyes slightly and turned to look at Li Manhong. Seeing Lin Tianqi looking over, Li Manhong said again.
"I heard that Deputy Sect Master Wang is relatively close to the Japanese, so..."
"Man Hong, don't talk nonsense. Don't talk about such baseless things in the future."
But this time, Li Manhong was interrupted by Xu Renjie before she could speak. Xu Renjie glared at Li Manhong and gave Li Manhong a wink, worried that Li Manhong would be in trouble. After all, if her words were spread, it would be easy to offend others.
Xu Renjie glanced at Li Manhong and turned to Lin Tianqi again.
"Mr. Lin, don't take it too seriously. Deputy Sect Leader Wang's objection may be due to his own considerations. Most likely he has no special intention."
Lin Tianqi smiled lightly when he heard this and didn't say much.
Li Manhong, who was sitting in the back of the car, looked at Lin Tianqi with a twinkle in his eye and hesitated to speak.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" "Ah!" "Run quickly!" "......"
At this moment, there was suddenly a loud noise and screams on the street in front, but a large group of guards rushed over, chasing the group of students with sticks and began to chase and beat them. The scene was chaotic and bloody, and even in the blink of an eye, Lin Tianqi
I saw four or five students falling directly to the ground. One of the female students had blood all over her face and was hit in the head. She didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
In the chaos, two students were thinking about Lin Tianqi and three people running towards them, a man and a woman. The man was protecting the woman, while behind him were two guards chasing fiercely with sticks.
"Bang!" One of the guards caught up with him and hit the two of them with a stick. The man saw this and protected the woman in front of him. He received a solid blow from the stick on his back and let out a muffled groan.
"Wen Qiang." The woman was startled and screamed when she felt that the man who was protecting her was hit.
"Run!" The man ignored the pain and continued to run forward while protecting the woman.
"Still trying to run away." The two guards behind him were chasing after them, looking at them with a ruthless look in their eyes.
Because the two guards recognized that this man was the leader of the students just now. When they came, strict orders had been issued from above. These students must be taught a lesson, especially the leader, regardless of life or death.
The man who was protecting the woman also changed his expression. Seeing the cruelty in the eyes of the two guards, his heart sank. He glanced at the woman next to him, and then looked at Lin Tianqi and the other three who were already sitting in the car not far away.
, gritted his teeth, and ran over with the woman.
"Man Hong, open the back door."
Lin Tianqi also noticed the man's intention and said to Li Manhong behind him.
"Mr. Lin, you will get into trouble." Xu Renjie's face changed slightly and he warned.
Lin Tianqi waved his hand to Xu Renjie, signaling him not to speak, and winked at Li Manhong again. Li Manhong understood and opened the rear door without much hesitation.
"Crack!"
The rear door opened, and the man who had escaped to protect the woman couldn't help but be startled. First he looked at the rear door in shock, and then he couldn't help but look at Lin Tianqi and Xu Renjie. He originally planned to beg Lin Tianqi and others, but he didn't expect Lin Tianqi
Several people opened the rear door directly.
"Thanks."
But at this time, there was no time to think too much. The man thanked Lin Tianqi and the other three, and immediately took the woman into the car.
At this time, the two guards also chased after them. When they saw the two people turning into the car, their expressions changed, but they did not dare to rush forward directly. After all, most people could not afford to ride in a car these days.
"These two are my friends. Please do me a favor and invite you to tea."
Lin Tianqi directly took out two small yellow croakers and handed them to the two guards through the car window.
The two guards' eyes lit up when they saw this, and they looked at each other. They walked up and took it quickly. Then they looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. They nodded slightly to Lin Tianqi without leaving any trace, then turned and left.
, these days, as long as you have money, many things are not a problem.
"Renjie, drive out of here first."
After the two guards left, Lin Tianqi said to Xu Renjie again. Xu Renjie next to him nodded. The two students who hid in the car next to Li Manhong breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Lin Tianqi and the others.
"Thank you." The man said.
"Thank you." The female students who were just leaning on the man's arms also thanked them, but some of them were very handsome and pretty.
Li Manhong and Xu Renjie just nodded slightly as a response, while Lin Tianqi turned to look at them.
The man also looked at Lin Tianqi and saw that Lin Tianqi was the leader among the three. It seemed that Lin Tianqi meant to save them just now. He immediately smiled and thanked Lin Tianqi.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome, what are your names?"
Lin Tianqi smiled slightly, looked at the young man and said.
The young man and the woman were both slightly stunned, as if they were a little surprised that Lin Tianqi would ask their names, but then they quickly reacted and said with a smile.
"My name is Xu Wenqiang. Sir, just call me Wenqiang. This is my classmate Xiaodong."
