mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 280 The Rise of Lee Soo Ji

These people rushed into the "National News" newspaper office, blushing with excitement, and driven by collective emotions, they threw newspapers, manuscripts, fountain pens, etc. on the ground and trampled on them.

However, at most, it will damage the fountain pen and dirty the paper, which is harmless.

At this time, a tall man in the crowd shouted loudly: "It's useless, we'll smash the printing press."

Although he spoke Korean, his accent was out of character and his tone was weird.

But the rest of the people were in an impulsive mood, and they didn't have any doubts after hearing it, but thought it made sense.

So he started to smash the printing press, smashing it to pieces.

Someone saw the tall man only making ideas but standing by, and asked him, "Why didn't you smash it?"

"Hey, I threw cabbage leaves at the Japanese a few days ago, and I was injured by them, so I didn't dare to use my strength."

"Damn Japanese."

"Yes, yes, you are right."

The people in the newspaper office had already heard the news and fled.

It was smashed here, and all valuable and necessary equipment were destroyed by the people. Only by ensuring that the "National News" will not continue to operate, can their raging anger be calmed down.

At this time, someone ran in in a panic to report: "It's not good, the Japanese police from the police station in Jongno are dispatched to suppress us."

There was a little panic in the crowd, and it was only then that they realized that what they were going to fight against was the vicious Japanese.

They still have the courage to fight inside, but they are a little timid when fighting outside.

A young man wearing glasses whispered something to the tall man.

The tall man waved his big hands convincingly in the air, and his tone was full of calm: "Don't be afraid, the number of Japanese police will not outnumber us. They came to suppress us, but now we suppress them instead!"

This sentence was a bit pretentious, and the blood of the people was once again incited, and they charged out with confidence.

Li Xiuji adjusted his glasses, and said worriedly: "Mr. Zhao, will something happen like this?"

Zhao Chuanxin said indifferently: "With me here, what can happen? Don't worry."

He and Li Xiuji came to Seoul secretly, just in time to catch up with the Korean people who were demonstrating.

It was impossible for Zhao Chuanxin to miss this excitement.

Without further ado, he dragged Li Xiuji into the crowd, paraded along the streets with the mighty team, and fanned the flames inside for fear that the world would not be chaotic.

The two of them followed the people to the gate of the newspaper office, looked out, and saw that there were indeed Japanese policemen outside, holding batons to expel the people.

Both the common people and the Japanese police were restrained at this time, the gentlemen used their words but not their hands, and most of their hands were pushing and shoving.

Zhao Chuanxin took out a set of Dahan's outfit from the secret place, that kind of white gown, and a tall hat.

Putting on his clothes, Zhao Chuanxin said to Li Xiuji: "The people of Korea are miserable, the suffering is unspeakable. I have been ignited by their enthusiasm and infected by their will. Today, I stand on the same front as the people of Korea. You Follow me closely so that you can teach me Korean and act as an interpreter for me anytime."

Those words just now were relayed by Li Xiuji to Zhao Chuanxin, so Zhao Chuanxin's tone of voice was so weird.

But his memory is not bad, and with the recent influence of his ears and eyes, he can barely speak completely.

Li Xiuji: "..."

He felt that the truth was just the opposite.

Zhao Chuanxin imitated the common people in Korea, with an excited look on his face, groaning, waving his arms, clenching his fists, clenching his teeth, and rushed out as if he was dying for the country.

Li Xiuji had no choice but to follow suit.

Personality is different from person to person.

If he had come by himself, he might have really been infected by the positive patriotic enthusiasm of the Korean people, and he would not hesitate to throw his head and blood.

But with Zhao Chuanxin, for some reason, he felt that everything had changed, and instead he was not so positive...

Zhao Chuanxin told the parade crowd that he was injured by the Japanese and did not dare to use force.

But pushing left and right in the crowd, the people of Korea have no single enemy.

"Hey, please let me go."

"Don't stop me, I'm going to chop the Japanese devils."

"Be obedient and don't squeeze, you are not my opponent..."

He eventually rushed to the forefront.

Looking back, I asked Li Xiuji: "The little devils are too strong, they can't beat them, and they fight... How do you say these words?"

Confused, Li Xiuji translated the prepared lines to Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin muttered a few words to deepen his memory.

Then his acting skills broke out, his face was full of grief and indignation, he rushed forward and shouted again.

"Oh, the little devil killed me."

"The little devil policeman is too strong."

"Little devils are not human!"

While shouting, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the baton of a Japanese policeman. The Japanese policeman was dragged by a strong force, and his body was pulled uncontrollably like a kite with broken strings.

Zhao Chuanxin shook his fist,
boom,
This punch was released with momentum, and the Japanese policeman who hit the upper half of his back flew into the air, his legs lifted off the ground, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

Zhao Chuanxin yelled while shaking his hands: "Oh, it hurts me to death."

"Oh, I'm going to be beaten to death by the Japanese."

As he said that, he stepped out from another gap in the bustling crowd, and took advantage of his height and arm length to grab another Japanese policeman.

boom,
He fell with one punch.

He has never practiced boxing, but he has fought a few times pretending.

Coupled with coming prepared, this second punch was even more handy.

With this punch, the Japanese policeman twitched on the ground, and his body stopped shaking after a while.

The surrounding Korean people were dumbfounded.

I just wanted to turn my head to see which hero made the move.

Zhao Chuanxin arched his buttocks, pushed the people behind him away, and disappeared among the crowd again.

It was just that he kept shouting and was beaten by the Japanese police, provoking the emotions of the people around him.

Just those few words over and over again, there is nothing to report.

But slogans are always as simple as possible.

The Japanese policemen in front saw that one of them had been beaten with stares in his eyes, and the other had been beaten so hard that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. He also lost his temper and really started beating people with batons.

So the people around started shouting, "The Japanese police have beaten someone."

Zhao Chuanxin was studious and tireless, and he was able to speak correctly after learning from them.

I couldn't help but secretly rejoice: It turns out that I have a talent for languages.

The parade crowd was unarmed, and was beaten by the Japanese police, crying for their fathers and mothers.

A Korean citizen saw the batons discarded by two beaten Japanese policemen on the ground, picked them up, waved them, and wrestled with the Japanese policemen.

The situation is like a powder keg that has been detonated and is about to explode.

Zhao Chuanxin saw that he had provoked him into a complete beating, and rushed to the front again, grabbed the baton from the people's hands, and hit the Japanese policeman on the head with a stick while a Japanese policeman was beating the Korean people.

The baton unexpectedly "clicked" and broke in response.

It can be seen how ruthless and cruel this stick is.

The Japanese policeman was bloodied and fell to the ground in an instant.

Zhao Chuanxin dragged a Korean commoner, slammed his back, and pushed him forward violently.

The Korean people and the two Japanese policemen collided into a ball, Zhao Chuanxin rushed forward again, seized the opportunity to grab the necks of the two policemen, and threw them to the sides like throwing two sandbags.

The parade people saw that this man was dressed like other Korean people, the key is that he was brave and invincible.

I thought that there were such warriors in Dahan, and I was immediately encouraged, and rushed forward to defend Zhao Chuanxin and charge.

The few Jongno police officers were immediately submerged in the vast ocean of crowds.

Zhao Chuanxin looked left and right, found Li Xiuji, and squeezed past him like a bull: "Quick, tell me the next sentence-everyone will destroy the Jongno Police Station with me, what do you say?"

Li Xiuji's glasses were almost squeezed out by the crowd, he was like a helpless and pitiful boat in a stormy sea.

Thanks to Zhao Chuanxin squeezing through the turbulent crowd, he was able to have a moment of relief.

So I translated the words again.

Zhao Chuanxin instructed: "Follow me closely, don't get lost."

At this time, all the Japanese police officers present were wiped out, and they were trampled and kicked.

The people in the demonstration were very excited, but because they lost their target, they were momentarily confused.

Zhao Chuanxin immediately gave them a new goal: "Go and destroy the Jongno Police Station!"

The parade people woke up like a dream, and rushed over.

Zhao Chuanxin was just skimming around, not participating in this kind of unskilled rough work.

When they finished venting, they felt that this kind of beating with justice was overwhelming.

Unknowingly, Zhao Chuanxin became the central figure.

Some people came out of the police station and shouted at him, "What do you do next?"

Zhao Chuanxin just wanted to play tricks secretly, and he didn't want to expose himself to the broad daylight.

But they couldn't extinguish their enthusiasm. After muttering a few words with Li Xiuji, he reluctantly said: "It's time for Li to use up. I heard that he was given a bonus of 20 by Hirobumi Ito for his traitorous behavior. In order to buy a new house, he even usurped his daughter-in-law."

After hearing the previous sentence, everyone just wanted to leave.

But after hearing the last sentence, I immediately climaxed.

"What? He took over his daughter-in-law?"

"This thief is really shameless."

"Beasts are better!"

After listening to Li Xiuji's translation, Zhao Chuanxin said to Li Xiuji: "They have wronged Li Wanyong. How can he be inferior to a beast? He is clearly like a beast."

"..." Li Xiuji said, "They want to know the details, what should I say?"

Zhao Chuanxin said that short sentences are fine, but long storytelling will definitely reveal the truth.

After all, he is now a member of the "Patriotic Korean People".

He said: "You go, you tell them, you have to be full of voice and emotion, the plot must have a cause, a development, and a climax. Pay attention, the details are very important, such as how did they do that mediocre thing? For example, how is Ren's skin? , how red and attractive her lips are, and how bumpy her figure is..."

Li Xiuji wiped off his cold sweat: "Mr. Zhao, I... I may not be able to speak well. I have never met Mrs. Ren."

Zhao Chuanxin hated that iron could not be made into steel, and slapped him hard on the head: "Is this good enough? Do you still want to lead a volunteer army to restore the country? Have you ever seen that the Ren family can't fabricate lies? Even spreading rumors Not at all, not even to stir up emotions, and make a fart of rebellion?"

Li Xiuji was speechless by what he said.

He has witnessed Zhao Chuanxin's strength of "for fear that the world will not be chaotic".

To describe him as thick-skinned is to beautify.

"Um, let me try..."

As a result, Li Xiuji, a hot-blooded second-year middle school youth, has since embarked on a completely different trajectory from his original life.

Zhao Chuanxin watched Li Xiuji perform.

From the stuttering and stumbling at the beginning, the speech became smoother and smoother later on, and he even flushed with excitement from what he had told himself, and couldn't stop spitting all over the place.

The common people yelled at "animals" while listening carefully with their eyes glowing green.

Speaking is addictive.

At first, you may feel that you are afraid of making a fool of yourself in the face of a huge crowd.

But once overcome, there is only satisfaction left.

Many leaders like long speeches, which is based on this reason.After all, as a subordinate, even if you feel that the leader's words are tasteless, you have to pretend to listen to them with relish and be fascinated.

Li Xiuji fell in love with this feeling while talking.

"Sir, is what you said true?"

"Really." Li Xiuji said confidently: "After he signed the traitorous treaty with the Japanese on behalf of Korea, he was worried that the people of Korea would settle accounts with him, and even wanted to take the widow-in-law who had committed adultery with him to Onyang Hot Spring for recuperation. "

Good people are poor, but this kind of traitor still has the desire to commit adultery, and can he go to a hot spring for recuperation?
The people were filled with righteous indignation and felt that it was unreasonable.

"Dog thief, how can you make him enjoy it so much?"

"Yeah, if the traitors are living in such a comfortable way, then I really feel very uncomfortable..."

"By the way, sir, you have a great eloquence and a dignified appearance. You should be a great person. What's your name?"

Li Xiuji was taken aback for a moment, and immediately turned to look at Zhao Chuanxin for help.

He didn't know whether to say his name or not.

Zhao Chuanxin nodded encouragingly.

Seeing this, Li Xiuji took a reassurance and shouted bravely: "I am Li Xiuji. I settled in the United States, but I heard that there were five traitors in Korea, and Korea fell into a Japanese colony. I returned to the country with grief. But I I found out that my personal ability is really limited. There are too many national thieves, and the Japanese are too arrogant. Fortunately, the patriotic heart of our Korean people is not dead, and I am honored to fight the Japanese with you today!"

As soon as the common people heard that this man had gone abroad, he immediately came back to support when he heard that the country was in trouble.

I feel admiration.

"Mr. Li is very nice."

"With a patriot like Mr. Li, why not drive away the Japanese wolves!"

This time it was Li Xiuji's turn to take the lead.

He was not recognized by his wife and was considered idle.

He was once angry, and even drew his gun in anger.

As a result, his wife ran away from home, afraid of him, and unwilling to face him.

He failed to get the approval of his wife, but he got the approval of the people of Korea.

This made him feel elated, and he really wanted his wife to come and have a look.

Some people asked: "Mr. Li, what are we going to do next?"

Li Xiuji looked at Zhao Chuanxin again.

He translated the words of the people in a low voice to Zhao Chuanxin, and Zhao Chuanxin's eyes lit up: what a windfall.

Maybe Li Xiuji's career will start today.

He hurriedly said: "Tell them, you will lead them to arrest the national traitor Li Wanyong, and you will also put him on public trial, so that the rest of the national traitors will see what happens when they betray their country and seek glory!"

"..."

……

Li Wanyong has already packed his things, and is going to leave for Wenyang tomorrow. He plans to stay there for a long time to avoid disaster and live for two or three years.

At this moment, a housekeeper came to report in a panic: "It's not good, sir, the people of Seoul marched and demonstrated, smashed the Jongno police station, and even the Japanese police were beaten to death by them. They are coming towards our house now, probably It's trying to harm you."

Prior to this, Li Wanyong's old home was smashed, and even the tablets of the eight generations of his ancestors were burned by angry people.

On the way to avoid disaster with his family, a child on the side of the road insulted him as a traitor.

The son committed suicide in anger.

For the anger of the people, Li Wanyong has a deep fear in his heart.

With a pale face, he said: "Hurry up, let's set off immediately, don't wait for tomorrow. The rest of us stay at home, I will travel lightly, and the people will not embarrass my family. Then go to Mori Taijiro and ask him to send troops to accompany him for protection. "

The butler responded, and was about to prepare the chariots and horses.

Li Wanyong thought of something, and shouted to the butler: "Remember, bring Mrs. Ren with you."

The housekeeper had a wretched "I understand" expression on his face.

Maybe outsiders don't know much about Li Wanyong's adulterous relationship with his daughter-in-law Ren, but his trusted butler knows it well.

The butler also shuddered when he thought of Ren Shi's delicate appearance and plump fair body.

I can't think about it, I can't think about it, the mother-in-law at home will not be fragrant if I think too much.

You can't blame the old man for being greedy and lustful, but that Mrs. Ren is too attractive.

Some money must be brought with you, in addition to the Rising Sun Tonghua badge, which symbolizes the status of the master, you must also take it with you.

A little change of clothes, Ren's rouge powder, etc., these are all packed, just need to be loaded into the car.

It sounds like a small amount, but after all, I plan to live in Wenyang for a long time, and the car is full of miscellaneous things.

This took some effort.

It's just that they planned to leave tomorrow, so they need to find bearers now.

The bearer said to the housekeeper, "Going on the road now? Then I also want to prepare some food. You just wait."

Regardless of what delicacies the nobles eat on the road, they usually bring their own dry food.

"Wait a fart, my eyebrows are burning, I'll go right away. On the way, I will help you prepare food."

The bearer's eyes lit up.

Prepare on the road, maybe you can eat some exquisite food with the nobleman.

He quickly showed a smiling face: "Okay, I'll take the water bottle and gear and set off right away."

The housekeeper was very anxious: "Don't bring anything, just follow me, the sedan chair is ready."

Li Wanyong was even more anxious.

He was pacing in the hall when Mrs. Ren hurried over.

"Uncle, what happened to make you hurry so fast?"

Ren's skin is indeed fair and beautiful, with plump limbs.

Her face was like a full moon, her eyes were like peach blossoms, and she walked gracefully, as if she could drip water at any time.

At this time, the daughter-in-law of Daehan traditionally called her father-in-law "uncle", and her mother-in-law was her mother-in-law.

Usually the two will not meet openly, and some things are carried out secretly at night.

But today, when Mrs. Ren heard that her uncle was in a hurry to leave, she didn't care about anything else, so she hurried to ask what was going on.

Li Wanyong saw her coming, and said angrily, "Why are you here? It's not good for others to see."

Ren's eyes were full of peach blossoms, and she came forward with a charming voice, and said in a voice like Yingyan's coquettish voice: "Oh, my good uncle, my mother-in-law went to the temple to chant scriptures for your dead son, and the servants are busy cleaning up. Luggage, nobody saw."

"That's not good, it's a shame to be caught by someone."

"Uncle is really serious."

Li Wanyong was teased by that small voice, and his expression softened.

Just about to speak, the butler came back: "Sir, the things have been loaded into the car, and the sedan chair is ready. And I have notified the Japanese, and they will send troops to escort you all the way to Wenyang."

As he spoke, the housekeeper stared at Mrs. Ren with dark and greedy eyes.

Looking at the beauties in front of the hall, the more you look, the more energetic you will be.

The housekeeper said in his heart: This little coquettish hoof, ouch, it's really itchy.

Li Wan waved his hand: "Then let's go right away."
