Those Westerners are good at bribing, always buying to serve them. Look at them making a boat, plundering and plundering everywhere in the name of doing business. Even though they didn't have many people, they were often the ones who benefited from it. They would seize more and more of the profits, and forget about the gains. They are good at opium production and use it to poison us.

Whoever smoked opium first felt extremely comfortable. The more they smoked, the more addicted they became. It was impossible not to smoke. In the end, the person's face was dark, skinny, like a phthisic ghost.

Ever since the foreigners sold us opium, our people have become more and more like phthisis because of the opium, and countless families have lost their fortune. Clearly, they were the ones who harmed our people to such an extent. They get cheapened and they behave and they call us East Asian sick men. Look at how inhumane they are. "After getting our silver taels, we even used them to carry carts and boats. In return, we even cursed at others."

Farmer said, "Old longevity really has a good memory. You're talking about unquestionable historical evidence. "

Those Western devils always like to scare people with their cannon shots. They always want to occupy our land and make a name for themselves here. In fact, they can't beat us Chinese together. They had been lucky enough to win a few times, and all of these were the result of the corrupt officials who had given them their blessing, both overtly and covertly. When the corrupt officials got the money from the foreigners, they did things for them. They described the foreigners as gunnery against the army of men to frighten the emperor. If the Emperor couldn't tell the truth, he wouldn't dare to deal with the foreigners. In fact, even if our people organized thousands of people, they still wouldn't be able to beat them. In the third yuan of that year, more than fifteen hundred foreign devils were surrounded by commoners. He was so frightened that his leader, the foreign devil, was kneeling down and begging for mercy. Even his pants were wet. The rest of the leaders also fell to their knees crying and begging for mercy. The Chinese government officials who came after hearing the news became soft-hearted. They protected them, dispersed the people and let them go. Those foreign devils had committed many evil deeds and were hated by the people of heaven. It was raining heavily that day, and the foreign devils were drenched in gunpowder, so their guns could not be fired. Those devils were tormented in the rain and mud. "If the government hadn't saved them, none of them would have survived.

Farmer said, "I have heard of the Tiger's Gate and the Three Elements' Resistance to Britain, but it is not as intense as this."

Four Heavens said, "I've seen all of this with my own eyes. At the time, it was truly explosive. The British devils have been more restrained since then. "

Looking back at history, Sikong said, "And the Russians in the north, they all look big and hollow and incompetent. They always took advantage of the fire to rob people. Later, they also learned from the Westerners to fire a few shots to scare people off. We suffer the most from them. This Russia did not have it before the Yuan Dynasty. It did not have it until after the Yuan Dynasty. In the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, they took advantage of the Zhu and Zhang dynasties to rise up and occupy many of the territory of the Yuan Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang won the throne and established the Ming dynasty, he began to treat them vaguely and did not drive them away. They have always had no sense of advance or retreat. They took advantage of the lack of troops in the northeast and took advantage of this opportunity to occupy a lot of territory in China. Emperor Kangxi had personally led troops to drive them away several times. They never die of ambition. Take advantage of the Western Empires to join forces and fight against us. The Russians have taken over much of our territory. The country is most afraid of internal and external troubles. North of the Heilongjiang River, east of it, east of the Wusuli River, those good places were taken by the Russians. In the northwest, we Chinese have five large lakes since ancient times. The lake, together with the land on that side, is also occupied by Russia. This old man is ambitious to the point of death, and while the Revolution of 1911 was still under way, they wanted to take advantage of the split between the north and the south to take advantage of our plans for Outer Mongolia. They're going to steal it again. Although it is said that Outer Mongolia is not a land where the resources are plentiful, now that it is a Republic of China, we should not let them snatch it away. "

Sikong Qing took a sip of tea and then said, Speaking of history, it's a long story. From the time of the Qing dynasty, most of the emperor was despicable and incompetent; most of the court ministers and civil and military officials were corrupt. This was the root of the Qing Dynasty's destruction. In conclusion, there was a rule: no matter which country the foreigners came from, if we couldn't stop them, they would always try to bully us. We have had experts in China who have seen through this step and advised the emperor to reform the system. It's a pity we can't last much longer. It has made us lose the means and the opportunity of the strong.

There is a striking example of success in changing from one to the other. Japan was as much attacked and bullied by the Western empires as we were. The Emperor of Japan saw through this step of reformation and transformation. He immediately advocated the implementation of the reform of the law, learning from the advanced areas of Westerners. As a result, a small country in Japan, before us to catch up with the Western advanced, the country is strong.

Japan can be said to be a world of heroes. Our country can only learn the advanced place of westerners by reformation and reform, and can only be rich and strong in the future. Unfortunately, now that the country's power was in Yuan Xiang City's hands, he didn't know when it would change. Yuan Shikai, his three generations of ancestors, I know, is a man who would do anything he wants. He was in charge of the country and had to lose land.

At this moment, the young monk came in to get more tea. "Did you instruct the monk about the guest's fasting?" As the young monk poured tea into the cup, he said, "I was just about to finish my tea when I gave the order for the fast food."

"When you go and give your orders, you have to have a sumptuous fast meal. The customers that returned are extraordinary. " The young monk laughed: "Elder, how did you forget? Didn't you tell me that every day? All guests who come from afar must treat them well. I still remember it. "

"There is no need for a sumptuous meal," Farmer said. Let me eat hunger and summer. "I won't stay for long. The sun is setting in the west, so it's time for me to take my leave."

Sikong Si said, "Fellow daoist, there is no need to rush to leave. It wasn't easy for me to return a hundred and twenty years later. Since he was already here, he might as well settle for now. Furthermore, one hundred and twenty years ago, when I visited your temple, I lived there for more than half a month. You shouldn't be less than that. "

Farmer was about to explain that he was busy and needed to hurry on his way. There was a sharp crack on the roof. The two of them hurriedly looked up and saw that the roof was falling.

Farmer said in surprise, "Not good, the roof of the palace has collapsed. "Hurry up and leave!" Farmer grabbed the empty space and left in a hurry. The two of them had just reached the door when they heard a loud bang and the roof fell to the ground. Following that, the smoke and dust began to rise, and the rubble began to pour down from the sky. The two went up to see what had happened. The main beam of the roof had been broken.

"This is bad news!" Inauspicious! This old monk's life is going to end. "Thank you fellow Daoist for saving me, or else I wouldn't have been able to escape this calamity."

Farmer turned around and said, "Monk, you don't have to worry too much. I looked at it. The temple was in a state of disrepair, and the pillars and beams had been broken by the wormwood, which was also a principle of rise and fall. It's just something to lose. "

"Since the beginning of spring, I have been afflicted with an illness and have not yet recovered," said Sikong. My ears are much too sick. I wasn't like that last year. So I'm worried. "

"There is no need to worry too much, Monk. I can see that you look healthy and healthy. Your illness will soon completely heal. "

In the middle of his shock, he let Farmer into the Eastern Palace Hall. Four Hells said, "Today was truly unfortunate. It startled the guests. I'm sure the roof won't fall too. "

Farmer laughed, "The Holy Monk is joking. How could there be such a coincidence? " The young monk hurriedly summoned the monks back to the temple, and then he looked at the two again and said, "I only heard a sound just now and I don't know what happened. I came out to find out that the roof of the temple has collapsed. Are the two Masters uninjured?"

Four Hells said, "None of them were injured. Thanks to the help of my guests, I was able to survive. "

The little monk said, "Master is our elder's savior. You can make it in time. Otherwise, our Clan Elder would have fallen asleep there! That would be terrible! " He then said, "Strange, why doesn't the usual house show any signs of collapsing?" He ran to examine the cause of the accident.

Not long after, all the monks in the temple heard the ringing of the bell and came running back from the mountains. After hearing what the young monk said, they all began to pull at the objects within. Sikong and Farmer went out to see, and saw that the monks were working hard.

Four Aches said, "These twenty or so monks of mine are all very capable. They are preparing for the flood of dry wood. " When the monks saw that the guests had arrived, they questioned Farmer. He saw that they were young and strong, and did their best.

A monk cleaned out a small wooden box in the ruins and said: "Elder, we didn't lose much things. We only broke a few pieces of porcelain." I cleaned up a small wooden crate in the ceiling and it was covered with dust and I don't know what was in it. "

Four Empty said, "It's been over a hundred years since I've been here, but I've never heard of such a small box. It must contain the relics of some previous master. "First, you should keep it properly. When you have free time, clean it up, and then we'll open it and take a look." The monk took the small wooden box and sent it into the warehouse. Before long, the monks will purlin, brick, tile, each heap of a place, cleared of the ruins.

At this point, the young monk came over and said, "The chimney can't be used, the guests' food is just ready. Elder, please accompany the guests to have a meal. " In his anxiety, Fa Ming thought to himself, "This meal is not bad. The scorching sun has already passed. This is a good time for me to travel." Thus, he hurriedly went to eat with Sikong Qing.

As soon as he finished his meal and was about to leave, a monk said to him, "The sky has changed! It had changed! "It's so cool!" Farmer and Four Empty went out to see. He saw the sky filled with dark clouds rolling towards him. Suddenly, a cold wind blew again. Farmer said, "It's going to rain. I can't leave."

Sikong Si said, "Okay, okay. This is making it difficult for people to keep people, but the heavens must keep people. "Fellow Daoist, don't even think about leaving. Listen to me, stay for half a month before you go." Farmer shook his head and sighed, but there was nothing he could do.

Sikong said happily, "The storm is brewing and the wind is blowing. There is no need to worry about the firewood. High monks do not walk the road, as a guest temple music ". "The weather will not be clear for a while," said Farmer. "It has missed my journey." The two of them, one happy, one worried, began to chat under the cool wind.

Four Empty ordered people to set up tea in the pavilion, and the two of them sat on several sides of the table, drinking tea and chatting. Unknowingly, it was getting late. Four Air called out to the little monk, "Tell your brothers to eat and rest early. It's raining heavily at night, so there's definitely a flash flood coming. They have to go out at night."

The young monk said, "Elder, please be at ease. You will only accompany the guests. The deacon has already led people to clear the waterway." It's raining heavily at night, so you don't have to go out to work. "

Sikong was very happy and said: "That's good, that's good." "Hurry up and hit the urge clock." The young monk went to the clock tower and rang the local bell.

Famin saw that the temple was in order and admired the four empty places. He said, "The temple is managed in an orderly manner. It can be seen that you are very reluctant to part with it. How many temples have I been to, and what I have seen is mostly management chaos. One monk was carrying water, two were carrying water, and the three were drinking water. There are not many people like you who work hard to improve. " He didn't expect these words to cause bitterness in all four places.

Tears streamed down from the eyes of Sikong, saying: "This is all thanks to our Monastery." He is very strict with monks and has good management of monasteries. Now that this person is no longer here, I have lost my right hand and my left arm. "

"How did he die?" Farmer asked in shock. Was it a sick death? "

Four Air wiped away his tears and said, "That year, the Germans suddenly decided to start mining here. They've brought a lot of people here to do exploration. We monks hate German devils the most. They said they were going to tear down our temple and drive us down the mountain. Our overseer went out with his men to prevent their exploration and to fight them. Both sides began arguing. 'Mountains are our mountains; mines are our mines, 'said our abbot, righteously. We will mine ourselves, not you Germans. Although we don't mine right now, we leave it for our children to mine in the future. Foreigners must not be allowed to plunder our wealth. ' The Germans are at their wits' end. The ferocious soldiers were all furious. Some of them even started to attack our overseer. He was lifted off the cliff by the temple guard. The German soldiers, seeing that they could not beat him, actually opened fire and killed our overseer. All of our monks were furious. The German soldiers dropped a few bodies and fled. A year later, the German soldiers returned. Bai Lang's team chased them away. As a result, the Germans have not yet been able to mine here. "
