On the bumpy mountain road, the carriage shook and shook.
Lin Tianqi held the reins in his hand, driving the carriage and pulling his wife, driving on the road at a leisurely pace, talking and laughing.
The journey was peaceful, and the couple were not in a hurry. It was like traveling through mountains and rivers, stopping and looking around, and stopping when they saw any beautiful scenery or things of interest.
During this period, we saw a flying waterfall on the road. The scenery was beautiful. We even stopped and ran to the pool under the waterfall to take a bath. Well, the kind that two people can do together.
After washing, I caught a few fish directly in the pond, and also hunted some game in the surrounding woods and barbecued it for lunch.
By the time we arrived in Guangzhou, it was already past six or seven in the afternoon, and the sun had already set on the mountains to the west.
Driving into the city, all the way to her residence, Xu Jie looked around curiously. Although she also stayed in Guangzhou for one night last time, she traveled in a hurry that time, and she was stabbed by a knife when she first checked into the hotel.
The people who helped me mixed things up a bit, but I didn’t have much time or thought to appreciate the scenery of Guangzhou City. The same place, different moods, naturally different feelings.
Xu Jie looked at the surrounding scene with interest. Compared with Fengshui Town, Guangzhou was undoubtedly more prosperous than ordinary people. Moreover, Xu Jie found that compared to the last time they came, Guangzhou was obviously much peaceful.
The last time they came to Guangzhou, it could be said to be chaos. People gathered for speeches and parades, quarreled and fought, and gang members bullied others into protecting themselves. Situations like these could be seen everywhere, creating chaos.
But this time, Xu Jie found that these situations were obviously much less frequent, especially those gang fights.
This can also be regarded as Lin Tianqi's contribution after he unified the gangs in Guangzhou. There were many gangs in Guangzhou before. With more gangs, there would naturally be more fights for interests. But after the Qilin Association unified all the gangs, this situation naturally disappeared. Occasionally,
Even if some people came out to cause trouble, they were immediately suppressed by the Qilin Society.
To use a very vivid phrase, Guangzhou is now officially owned by the government, but secretly, the Qilin Society has the final say. Even foreigners are afraid of the Qilin Society and dare not easily provoke it.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!…
On the street facing us, an old foreign priest who looked to be in his sixties came towards us with a group of believers. There were more than 20 people in the group, including men and women, and there were even a few Chinese among them.
Dressed as a believer, he chanted Hallelujah and walked along the street.
Brother Tian, what are these people doing?
Xu Jie's eyes were immediately attracted to this group of people. Looking at the dress and appearance of the group of people, she asked curiously.
This is missionary work, which is equivalent to Taoism and Buddhism in our country. It is just a Western church and should be Christianity. When Lin Tianqi heard this, he smiled and explained to Xu Jie: The Lord Jesus whom Christianity believes in is just like those in our country.
The Buddha that people who believe in Buddhism or Taoism believe in is the same as the Taoist god. The one in the front should be the priest, and those in the back are the believers...
Lin Tianqi opened his mouth and briefly told Xu Jie about the church's situation. In fact, he didn't know much about Christianity in the West, but he still knew a bit about it in general. Even if it wasn't too clear, he had been influenced by it from watching movies in his previous life.
I also know some things, such as priests and believers.
Xu Jie nodded when she heard the words and roughly understood. Then she saw the believers, especially the Chinese people inside, and couldn't help but become curious.
Is this religion very effective? It seems that there are many people who believe in it, including all of us Chinese.
Coincidentally, when Xu Jie asked Lin Tianqi this, the group of missionaries had just walked to the front of the carriage. Upon hearing Xu Jie's words, the leading priest looked at the two of them and said.
The Lord is omnipotent, omnipresent, omnipotent, and naturally efficacious. Believing in the Lord can eliminate all hardships and sufferings. Even if you are guilty, you can also be forgiven and washed by the Lord.
Ladies and gentlemen, are you willing to believe in the Lord and fall into the arms of the Lord like us?
Well.
Xu Jie was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the other party heard what she said to Lin Tianqi and actively invited them to join the church. She didn't know how to answer for a while and looked at Lin Tianqi.
The priest saw Xu Jie looking at Lin Tianqi and saw that Lin Tian was the leader of the two. He immediately looked at Lin Tianqi and said.
Come on, child, join us, throw yourself into the arms of the Lord, believe in the Lord, and the Lord will protect you, and the gates of heaven will be opened for you.
Lin Tianqi was speechless for a moment after hearing this. Heaven is a place for the dead, okay?
Sorry, we are not religious, you should find someone else.
Lin Tianqi immediately waved his hand and said, no matter in the previous life or in this life, Lin Tianqi never believed in any religion. In the previous life, he had believed in religion when he was young, but when he grew up, he no longer believed in it, because life taught him that human life
In this life, you can only rely on yourself.
After saying that, Lin Tianqi pulled the reins directly and drove away without giving the other party a chance to say more.
Seeing Lin Tianqi driving away, the priest didn't say anything to stop him. He just took one more look and then looked away, and continued to move forward, saying hallelujah.
Xu Jie walked for a while and looked back at those people and asked Lin Tianqi.
Brother Tian, you clearly believe that these things are useless, why do so many people still believe them?
Xu Jie actually didn't believe much in religion, because her family had believed in religion, Buddhism, and even Wong Tai Sin in the past, but then she found that these were of no use, so she stopped believing in them.
, and then Xu Dongsheng became a disciple of Uncle Jiu, and now that she was married to Lin Tianqi, and learned about spiritual practice, she no longer believed in the so-called teachings.
Lin Tianqi smiled when he heard this.
Some people do it because of their own brain problems, while others want to find a spiritual sustenance for themselves.
Indeed, the best way to explain something like religion is that whether you believe it or not, you don’t have it. Except for some stupid and brainwashed people who really believe in it, most people who believe in religion are actually looking for a psychological sustenance.
.
Xu Jie nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.
Ta da! Ta da!......
There was the sound of horse hooves. Half an hour later, as we walked through the busy city and entered a quiet residential area, we could clearly see groups of men patrolling the surrounding streets. They were clearly members of the Qilin Association. In addition to the people from the Qilin Association,
There was no outsider around, but after the Qilin Club unified all the gangs in Guangzhou, this high-rise residential area was specially designated for the Qilin Club.
Sir! Sir!...
When everyone in the Qilin Club on patrol saw Lin Tianqi, they immediately looked solemn and shouted respectfully. Then when they saw Xu Jie in the carriage, they first had a look of surprise in their eyes, and then they quickly spoke quickly.
lady!
One person spoke, and some others saw that Lin Tianqi was smiling as usual, and they quickly called out.
Madam! Madam!....
Hearing these people calling her this way, Xu Jie's face turned slightly red and she was a little embarrassed, but she felt pleased with herself and was not too surprised by these people.
As early as on the way here, Lin Tianqi had already told Xu Jie about the situation in Guangzhou and what he had done outside before.
After passing the patrol guard area, we walked along the street for a few minutes, and finally came to a single manor-style villa in the middle of the residential area.
Sir! Sir!...
There were also people from the Qilin Society guarding the door outside the villa. When they saw Lin Tianqi, they quickly shouted respectfully.
Immediately afterwards, a beautiful figure walked out quickly from the villa.
Brother Lin.
Surprisingly, it was Wu Qingqing.
Lin Tianqi took Xu Jie's hand and got out of the carriage. Seeing Wu Qingqing, Xu Jie's face visibly stiffened. Although she already knew about Wu Qingqing's existence from Lin Tianqi's mouth and was prepared in her heart, she still felt a little sad when she saw her at this moment.
Difficult to adapt.
When Wu Qingqing saw Xu Jie, her face paused, but then she immediately returned to her smile, walked up quickly and called out kindly.
This is Sister Xu, she is indeed a natural beauty that will captivate the whole country. I have long heard Brother Lin talk about Sister Xu. I have always wanted to meet Sister Xu. Today I finally met. Qingqing has met Sister Xu.
Wu Qingqing has positioned herself very well. Xu Jie is the wife of Lin Tianqi, the matchmaker. Although she and Lin Tianqi are together now, they are not married. They are not even considered concubines. At most, they are considered an outcast, so naturally they are
Called Sister Xu Jie, she considers herself the youngest.
Hello.
Seeing Wu Qingqing taking the initiative to speak enthusiastically, Xu Jie was in a slightly better mood, although she still couldn't accept it for a while, with a smile on her face, and she greeted Wu Qingqing with a smile.
Let's go to the house first.
Lin Tianqi said, and the two women nodded, and the group entered the house.
