late Qing Dynasty arrest

The comfortable Spring Festival is coming to an end, and the regular life makes Li Guolou look a lot stronger. On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the brothers of Tianzihao had a big gathering and were invited to the site of Yipintang.

At noon, Li Guolou brought three lovers, a girlfriend and daughter to the bridge. From the moment he jumped off the carriage, Li Guolou and his party attracted the attention of passers-by.

Sister Chen Xiangfang took out her gold watch and said, "Xiaolou, I'll take them to play, and we'll pick you up at [-]:[-] p.m. No drinking is allowed. I want to check."

Li Guolou raised his top hat, bowed gracefully and said, "Xiaosheng is gone, don't get separated, just give in to each other, don't quarrel and make people laugh."

Xie Xiuzhu said lightly and angrily: "Go! Where did we quarrel? We were drunk and happy. Don't bring another diva back. We will turn our faces."

Li Guolou quickly turned around and stopped talking. There is no taboo for men and women to become old couples. Such nonsense on the street makes people laugh.

Zhao Yao, the head of Yipintang, entertained friends from all corners of the country in the "Yuejia Magic Class". Hundreds of people came to the venue. Entertaining distinguished guests and friends in the troupe is a special feature of the Spring Festival. Everyone eats and watches, which can kill half a day Otherwise, these people would be suffocated to death if they stayed together.

There are not only magic performances on the stage, but other troupes are invited, including singers, jugglers, eight-drum horn players, and allegro players. The whole stage has not stopped since noon.

The Jianghu brothers obeyed the rules, and everyone stopped talking when the gong sounded, and watched the performance on the stage. During the break in the middle, the buzzing sound like sparrows chirping and buzzing kept ringing in our ears.

Yue Jiexian no longer performed her special magic "water escape", and her elder brother performed this event instead.Although Yue Feixian is a shirtless man, and his beauty is not as good as before, but the tense and exciting atmosphere makes people breathless. Yue Feixian struggled in the water tank for 4 minutes before he untied the iron shackles and ropes, and got out of the water tank. escaped, and everyone in the audience was silent.Exclaimed to meet heaven and man, the applause and cheers shook the sky.

Zhao Yao's eyes widened in surprise, he pointed at the stage without blinking, and said, "Third Brother, tell me the truth, is this true?"

Li Guolou was embarrassed, how many times had he been made fun of for his matter of picking up immortals?Among the actors, the singer is the top card and worth a lot of money, while the red singer is valuable.And the female actors in the juggling class are worthless, they are the cheapest actors, and they are worthless.

Divas are surrounded by women, and there are many women who are performing arts but not themselves.There are men and women in this kind of juggling class, and it is common for men and women to live together. Everyone knows what Yuezhaixian is.Li Guolou already had a new title, "Little Li who Collects Waste" to distinguish him from the "Little Li" in the palace.

Li Guolou smiled and said: "Master Zhao, I don't know if it's true or not. Aren't we watching from below?"

Next to him, Liu Huan, the third head of the Yipintang, was a thief, and said with a smile: "Third brother, but you are different, you are not a detective, you can take advantage of loopholes."

The hall roared with laughter, Li Guolou wished there was a hole in the ground for him to drill.

As soon as the wonderful program "Escape from Water" ended, Yue Jiexian walked off the stage with a copper plate to give a reward. Now it was lively, and the laughter burst out again. The sound of "Ding Ding Dang Dang" can be heard endlessly, and Yuezhai Xianmu Zhimujue is also proud that so many brothers from the rivers and lakes joined her, making her a lot of gold and silver.

Amidst the booing, Li Guolou handed Yue Jiexian a silver ingot, and Yue Jiexian looked at Li Guolou shyly.

"Not enough!" There were boos from all around.

Li Guolou put three silver ingots on the copper plate in a row, and the surroundings were still like, "Not enough! We need to see the etiquette of Westerners!"

Amidst the booing of the crowd, Li Guolou held Yue Jiexian to meet a Westerner, applauded and applauded one after another, Yue Jiexian fled backstage shyly even with a copper plate.

Li Guolou sat down dejectedly, sighed and said: "I will never marry my little wife again, the wife at home is so annoying to death. I have to calculate how many words I have to say to this one and the other every day, You can't favor one over the other, it's more tiring than seeing the officer, I really miss the good old days."

"Hey!" Wu Defu also sighed beside him. It is reasonable for a hero in the world not to be close to women, and he has also tasted the evil results of having too many women.

"You guys have broken the rules and hold women in your hands. You must also have official authority at home. Let women kneel at your feet like sitting in a court. You can choose whichever you want. If you don't like a woman, let her disappear. In front of you, so that you will be at peace at home. Do you understand the stick!" Wu Defu taught by example and uttered the truth.

Li Guolou snapped back and said, "Second brother, you are doing this in Japan. We are now learning from Westerners to respect women."

Wu Defu retorted: "You have learned half the way, Westerners advocate monogamy, why don't you learn it?"

The two began to argue with each other. Li Guolou was always reasonable, and Western women also chased him to the Qing Empire to find him willing to be a concubine. new human beings.

The sound of the gong sounded, and the actors took the stage to perform. The people in the venue stopped whispering and focused their eyes on the stage.

A short Choudan with white powder on his face swayed on stilts and made funny moves, amusing the people in the arena.The short Choudan threw three burning knives into the air, and the flames seemed to be spinning in circles.The eggs were thrown from three to six, and the last six eggs were smashed on the forehead, and the white face turned into egg soup, which made everyone laugh.

The short Choudan also breathed fire from his mouth, and a string of flames spewed out from the stage, making the people present scream again.The short Choudan can do somersaults on stilts, and his ability to be funny is unmatched by anyone.

Li Guolou took a look at the program list. The short ugly girl named Hua Dandan was from the juggling class of the Miao family. Li Guolou's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he squinted at the ugly girl named Hua Dandan. .

Eight strong men from the juggling class of the Miao family came up and climbed two thick ropes hanging from the top of the stage naked on the stage. They made various unimaginable movements on the ropes, and the combination of strength and beauty attracted waves Applause.

The program of going up the knife mountain is a repertoire of the Miao family's juggling class. Although the escalator on the knife is not very high due to stage restrictions, stepping on each sharp simple knife and climbing to the top of the knife ladder to get the hydrangea, this kind of life-threatening The performance was well received by people in the arena.

The program of going into the sea of ​​fire was even more terrifying. A dozen strong men walked across the burning coals barefoot, singing incomprehensible minority songs. The people in the Miao family's juggling class boasted that they could only dare to do such a thing.

At the end of the show, everyone was still not returning to the wonderful performance just now, Li Guolou whispered: "Second brother, those people have problems, they should be members of the White Lotus Sect, let's go meet them."

"Xiao Lizi, you took the wrong medicine. What kind of grievance does the White Lotus Sect have with us? The White Lotus Sect has not rebelled now. The Empress Dowager Empress Dowager Grace will not kill people, and she will not behead her if peace is the most important thing. At worst, they will be exiled to the army. Why are they looking for us?" Wu Defu turned his head to look at Li Guolou as if he had met a ghost, and he couldn't believe that such a thing would happen.

Li Guolou said in a low voice: "Second brother, I have no intention of arresting them, and I have no evidence in hand, but they came to the capital to do bad things. It is best to persuade them to leave. We will meet each other in Jianghu tomorrow. Hokage knows it. Second brother, don’t just think about beauties, you will start killing after the Chinese New Year.”

Li Guolou was about to curse, and rolled his eyes towards Wu Defu.I went to drag Yao Cuo again, and saw that Yao Cuo was a little drunk, so that's all.

Wu Defu poured tea into his stomach in one gulp, stood up and asked, "Third brother, how can I meet them? Harder or softer?"

Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "On the premise that the second brother is easy to meet, what are you going to do?"

Li Guolou scolded his mother in his heart. Wu Defu, who celebrated the Chinese New Year, had no ambitions. He was full of anger and wanted to kill to vent his evil fire. The first one wanted to kill Liu Huan, the third head of Yipintang, who liked Xiaoxianggong.

Wu Defu pondered for a moment, and said: "Let their family members come to see us and give them a step up. If they don't obey, they will come hard. At worst, they will be separated."

Li Guolou said in a low voice: "Let that ugly stilt walker come along, he is Hokage."

Wu Defu was dumbfounded in astonishment. The White Lotus Sect "Hokage" was famous and assassinated countless officials of the Qing Dynasty.He, who collects information from Jianghu, doesn't even know what Hokage looks like. Where did Li Guolou get the news from?

Wu Defu blew up the temple and said, "Third brother, why didn't you tell me when you got the news?"

Li Guolou grinned and said, "Second brother, I am the head arrester handling the case. I have seen Hokage while staying at the scene. Do you understand if you can see it with your eyes?"

Wu Defu said: "Third brother, you won't miss it?"

Li Guolou said: "Second brother, it's a secret word if you look away. People pretend to be confused when they pretend to understand, and everyone will not draw their guns at each other."

"Sell green onions!" Wu Defu figured it out, who is afraid of whom, everyone is practicing Tai Chi, there are a lot of misunderstandings in the world, and the most they can do is to accompany them.

Wu Defu beckoned for Wu Ta to come over, whispered a few words, and said to Zhao Yao, the head of Yipintang, that he wanted to meet the guests, and then walked upstairs to the private room with Li Guolou.

On the stage, two fat men were playing the octagonal drum, one fat man was talking and singing, and a fat man sitting behind was playing the strings. It was a very interesting performance, and he was also doing all kinds of funny moves.There was laughter in the Bode venue, and Li Guolou and Wu Defu stood in the private room upstairs smiling and watching the performance on the stage.

Li Guolou said with a smile: "Second brother, playing the octagonal drum is the funniest. It is suitable for ordinary people to watch. These two fat people will become popular. Ask the eldest brother to sign a contract with them, and let them do special performances in the eldest brother's place in the future. I will write to them Speak."

Wu Defu said cheerfully: "Third brother, it's fine if you say yes, but if you don't see it, only an all-rounder can write speeches."

"Second brother, why don't you write the jokes you made up for me into the speech, and you still talk about the people sitting in the hall." Li Guolou said extremely dissatisfied.

Wu Defu thought of the funniest joke, and when he saw the appearance of the two big fat guys on the stage, he couldn't help squatting on the ground laughing until he couldn't breathe.

(The octagonal drum is the predecessor of cross talk, and if one person behind it doesn't play the strings, it becomes a flattery.)
