Myth: Heaven and Earth

Chapter 208 Opposites do not coexist

After such an interruption from Lu Heng, the old gentlemen finally calmed down a bit.

The conversation is not full of gunpowder, so I just talk about what I have seen and heard.

Here one counts as one, not all of them say they have learned both Chinese and Western, but most of them have traveled all the way abroad.Even the young Mr. Lu Xun had just returned from studying in Japan.

To be honest, Lu Heng is the one who has the least knowledge - he has never been abroad in his two lifetimes.But it doesn't matter if he has never been abroad, he has crossed time and space; after all, the information in his life was developed, although it is specious, but it is still possible to use it to set up a dragon.

And in the era of Lu Heng's last life, the face of a Westerner has undoubtedly been revealed.Compared with this era, countless people believed that they were real gentlemen. In Lu Heng's life, most people already knew what kind of hooligans the Western world was.

Old Mr. Gu Hongming and Mr. Yan Fu all went to Europe for a while.

Mr. Gu was born in Nanyang, and later went to England with the owner of the British manor. No one knows what this old man has experienced in foreign countries for decades, but his understanding of the Western world is his own experience.

So did Mr. Yan Fu.In his early years, Mr. Yan Fu also thought that Western civilization was more noble.So he went abroad, but when he came back after walking around, he left behind those eight words 'killing people for selfishness, shameless'.

Really wise people, such as these old gentlemen, actually see the Western world very thoroughly.

It’s just that this era is so fucked—in fact, the West is more developed than the East, so most people immediately come to the conclusion that the West is more civilized than the East.

This makes them very worried.

If it continues like this, where will it be in the future? !Will Shenzhou sink?Will the things handed down by the ancestors disappear completely?
At that time, will the people on this land still be the descendants of Yanhuang?
For their worries, Lu Heng expressed his understanding.

Lu Heng read Mr. Lu Xun's book in his previous life, and between the lines, he saw a knife and Mr. Lu Xun's despair of the world.While he hopes to awaken the general public with the knife he hides between the lines, he also doubts whether we have a future.

But Lu Heng knew where the future was.

No matter how dark the world is, the torch that the ancestor of the Suiren clan ignited at the beginning has never been extinguished.When the time comes, it will burn blazingly, and finally dye this land with crimson light!

He smiled and said: "Although there are many chaos, I think the future is hidden inside. It will definitely come. If you old gentlemen take good care of your health, you will be able to see it in a few decades."

Although the grand occasion at that time did not necessarily meet the wishes of these old gentlemen—these old gentlemen had different positions. Although they were profoundly knowledgeable, they were either feudal old-fashioned stubborn or bourgeois ostentatious, and they really thought of the people. Lu Heng doesn't know if Mr. Lu Xun counts as the target of the public.

Mr. Gu Hongming came here specially this time. First, after hearing Lu Heng's deeds, he felt that although he was not a scholar, he was also a hero, and it was worth seeing him.

The second is to seek some benefits for the Qing court, such as what he said when he first opened his mouth, to return Shanghai to the Qing court for governance.

The current situation of the Qing court is extremely bad. Yuan Gongbao's Beiyang faction has taken power, and Guangxu has long been weak, and he is bedridden and dying.

Mr. Gu is very worried that once Guangxu dies of illness, something big will happen.

Today, the revolutionaries in the South are becoming more active.

Not long ago, that is, before Lu Heng decided to fight fiercely with the foreigners' monsters and ghosts, there were already waves in Shuzhong.

After the Eight-Power Allied Forces, the Qing court lost power and humiliated the country, and owed a lot of money.They plan to take back the railway in central Shu.It was not so good at first, but if the court took it back, the common people would probably not have much opinion if they were numb.But after it was taken back, it was resold to foreigners!
This caused quite a stir.

At this time, Shuzhong was already like a powder keg that was about to be ignited.

Hearing Mr. Gu mention this, Lu Heng realized that this is the famous road protection movement!

Because of Lu Heng's relationship, the Qing government's control over the south, or Yuan Gongbao's control over the south, was weakened to the extreme.

In the past few years, although the uprisings of the revolutionaries have been repeatedly suppressed, the general trend can already be seen. The north is about to completely lose control of the south.

Mr. Zhang Binglin said: "The general trend has begun. Mr. Qianjun's feat this time has given countless people great encouragement."

From his words, Lu Heng heard that the revolutionaries were about to make a big move.

The current time period is a very special time period.The foreigners wanted to kill Lu Heng, but failed. They were so terrified that all the foreigners in Shanghai ran away.

Against this background, the influence of foreign powers on China was temporarily suppressed.

This contains many opportunities.

The revolutionaries will not miss this opportunity.

Mr. Gu Hongming was heartbroken: "Why is there a civil war? Why is there a civil war?! Everyone seeks common ground while reserving differences, isn't it good to unite?"

University scholars are sometimes naive in politics.

Conservative and innovative, there is a sharp contradiction in fundamental interests.How can we seek common ground while reserving differences?

Just like the constitutional monarchy recently proposed by the constitutionalists?
joke!

Do the Tartars still want to create a constitution?The descendants of wild boar skin still want to be emperor?Even if he is the emperor in name, Lu Heng is not happy!
If it really became a fact, Lu Heng went north, and he would definitely pull out the roots of the Tartars.

While talking, Shi Shi hurried in from the outside, holding a newspaper.

Lu Heng took it over and took a look, the striking characters!
In this newspaper is Mr. Zhongshan's declaration to overthrow the Qing court!

It was a new newspaper published today, and the time for the declaration was actually last night!
The newspaper said that the revolutionaries in the [-] southern provinces will join forces today to crusade against the Manchus!It is bound to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and usher in democracy!

There's going to be a war!

A newspaper, a manifesto, guests who came to Lu Heng's house, a few university scholars, and young people left Zaoshan Town in a hurry.

It seemed that old Mr. Zhang Binglin and the others were a little surprised, and perhaps they had some kind of psychological preparation, but they must have failed to get the news in advance.

Very abrupt.

But the choice of timing is very appropriate.

After these people left, Lu Heng's room seemed a little deserted.

In the backyard, monks and priests were talking in low voices in the yard.

Seeing Lu Heng coming in, several old Taoist priests from the hidden veins all came over to talk to Lu Heng.

The old Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain looked relaxed and natural, and sighed softly: "After what happened yesterday, we can be relieved. Come here and be different from you. My old Taoist priest is going back to the mountain gate and waiting to become immortal."

The old Taoist priest Qing Huang said: "I don't necessarily have to worry about it. Yesterday's poisonous gas bacteria, we must be on guard. In case foreigners still have the bottom of the box, when will they throw it, I'm afraid it will be bad."

Lu Heng nodded: "Senior said yes."
