Chapter Thirty-Eight

Yangcheng.

It is the capital of Nanyue Province, with the oldest history and the largest foreign trade port in the Eastern Empire.

One of the starting points of the Maritime Silk Road in ancient times was known as the Thousand-year-old Shang Capital.

However, in recent years, Western learning has spread to the east, and the lions have fallen asleep. The majesty of the thousand-year-old Eastern power has long disappeared with the rampage of foreign guns and cannons.

Things in the world are unpredictable, and Xun is new every day, and new every day.

But less than half a year later, on the road from Foshan to Yangcheng, we opened mountains and carved stones and built a railway.

On this day, on a shaking and slow-moving train, Su Zhao took Zhang Shaojun and came from Foshan to Yangcheng with Huang Feihong and Lin Su (Yashisu).

Walking on the streets of Yangcheng, sitting in a human-powered rickshaw, Su Zhao saw stupidity and ignorance.

People have not yet opened their minds and cannot understand Western things. They try their best to reject them and regard them as monsters.

A demon is different from an ordinary person.

Things that cannot be understood, do not want to understand, and dare not understand are all called demons.

Sad and lamentable.

"Brother Huang, when we arrive in Yangcheng, we will part first!"

Su Zhao turned his head and stopped looking at the people on both sides. He said to Huang Feihong: "At that time, as we have agreed before, we will meet up at Tianranju where you are staying, and let's go back to Foshan together!"

Before coming to Yangcheng, Huang Feihong had already asked his friends in the provincial capital to book a room at an inn called Tianranju.

"No problem. After attending the medical exchange meeting, I was waiting for Brother Su and Aunt Thirteen in Tianranju!"

When Huang Feihong heard this, he replied repeatedly.

Before, he was having a headache, which apprentice he brought to the provincial capital. Not only Ling Yunkai, but also Zhu Ruorong wanted to come with him.

Finally, at Su Zhao's suggestion, he still put on his teeth to wipe Su.

There must be many foreigners attending the medical exchange meeting. If they don’t carry the translation with them, Huang Feihong will not even understand the foreigners’ words.

"Then let's just say that!"

Su Zhao said with a smile.

While they were talking, the group of four had arrived at their destination, Tianranju.

"Brother Su, we're here."

The rickshaw stopped, Huang Feihong got out of the car and clasped his fists.

The teeth behind him were busy carrying their luggage and paying for the car.

"Okay, I remember the place. After the commemoration of my father and mother, I will come here to find you."

Su Zhao turned his head, looked around, and nodded to respond.

After saying goodbye, two rickshaws continued to move forward to the location of the Su family's ancestral tomb outside the city.

At this time, someone on the street saw Su Zhao and Zhang Shaojun's outfits, and they watched and discussed it.

"Look, there is a fake foreign devil and a fake foreign woman here. Why didn't the White Lotus Sect burn them to death?"

"From their dress, they should be from other places."

"Go and report to the White Lotus Sect, saying that two fake foreigners came to the city and asked someone to arrest them and burn them."

Although the people around him spoke very softly, Su Zhao was very clear-headed and immediately heard everything in his ears.

He thought about the plot of the second part a little and felt a terrible heart.

In this movie, the villains include the leader of the White Lotus Sect, Jiugong Zhenren, and the new admiral Nalan Yuanshu.

"I hope you don't seek death and come and trouble me..."

Su Zhao thought silently in his heart and muttered softly.

At this time, a group of people marched from another street with black and white banners, shouting: "Oppose the Treaty of Shimonoseki! Oppose Li Hongzhang's request for peace from the Japanese pirates! Oppose the cenification of Ryukyu Island!"

The onlookers seemed to have a new love, so they forgot the old love between Su Zhao and the others and looked at the group of people who were parading.

All my eyes revealed was the jokes that were not too big to watch the fun, and the numbness that was nothing to do with me.

"let's go!"

Seeing this, Su Zhao shook his head and signaled the coachman to pull the cart.

I don’t know if the world is different. In Su Zhao’s previous life, the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed in the 21st year of Guangxu, but the world was the sixth year of Guangxu, a total of fifteen years apart.

"So, this may be because of the parallel world. Some common sense in the previous life can only be used as a reference, and cannot be copied in full."

Su Zhao was secretly alert in his heart. Don’t think that if you know both martial arts, you can be arrogant and domineering.

There are people outside of people, and there are heavens outside of heaven.

Be low-key in life, be sure to be low-key.

"Dear neighbors, listen, the White Lotus Sect is opening at the entrance of the Telegram Bureau. Come and visit us quickly!"

At this moment, someone came from a distance from the street, stood tall and shouted loudly.

"boom!"

The crowd was sensational.

"Go away quickly, it's auspicious thing to go with incense sticks!"

"I want to ask the Taoist talisman to be posted at the door of my house. I hope my mother will bless my family with peace."

"Together!"

People who heard the news stopped eating morning tea and flocked to the direction of the Telegraph Office.

"Brother Su, let's go and have a look, is that OK?"

After hearing what passersby said, Zhang Shaojun quickly said to Su Zhao.

"What's so good about pretending to be a ghost? Don't be too troublesome and be obedient!"

Su Zhao shook his head, not liked to watch the fun.

"Oh well!"

Zhang Shaojun couldn't help but pout, a little depressed.

Seeing her expression sideways, Su Zhao was puzzled, and then suddenly realized.

After all, she is just a seventeen-year-old girl in Huaxin. She is naturally lively and cheerful.

Ignoring her feelings like this is indeed a bit too selfish.

This is not good.

After thinking about it, Su Zhao said, "Well, let's do it like this! When the matter is over, I will take you to play in Yangcheng for a few days. What do you think?"

Even Su Zhao himself didn't realize that his temperament had changed.

I became less indifferent than before, and I became more concerned about the feelings of the people around me.

"Okay, Brother Su, you can't lie to me!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shaojun's mouth suddenly raised, and his beautiful big eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, revealing a hint of playfulness and cuteness.

"No one will lie to you!"

Su Zhao said intimately.

"The relationship between the young master and the wife is so good!"

Hearing their conversation, the coachman sighed.

"hehe!"

Su Zhao smiled and said nothing.

The car moved slowly, squeezed through the crowd, and walked towards the direction of the ancestral home.

Since he came to the city, Zhang Shaojun wanted to go and see the Su family's ancestral home, so Su Zhao naturally followed her.

When he arrived at Baiyun Road and arrived at the location of the Su Mansion's hometown, Su Zhao took Zhang Shaojun's hand into the rickshaw, paid the fare with the other hand, and carried the suitcase.

"Brother Su, which house was the Su Mansion before?"

Zhang Shaojun looked around, trying to find the former site of the Su Mansion.

"this……"

Su Zhao looked up and couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw a large group of people wearing white robes, holding mourning sticks, walking neatly on the street, with onlookers on both sides.

The leader is the three-clear bell in one hand and the yellow talisman in the other hand, jumping up and down like a monkey who is just playing tricks, chanting slogans loudly:

"The sky, wind, earth and fire are coming together, killing all the foreigners' righteousness!"

"Now there is a white lotus coming to save the world and drive away all evil demons and pass them on to generations!"

"Help the green and destroy the foreign countries, and peace will be made in the world!"

The posture was well-proportioned and the aura was extraordinary, and everyone around him looked straight.

The above are not the reasons why Su Zhao was stunned.

He looked at the plaque in front of the original Su Mansion. The word "Su Mansion" was hung before, but now it has been replaced by a wooden sign with complete bilingual Chinese eagle.
