Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Chapter 593: Blood splattered in Guangeng Pavilion, so cruel (page 12)

At this time, there were five foreigners, arms around each other, watching the fun.

The waiter muttered in a low voice: "Since the opening of the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway, we have often seen foreign devils in Suzhou. The foreigners are vulgar and do not understand etiquette. A few years ago, there were American sailors who made trouble after drinking. The people dared to be angry but dare not speak out."

Zhao Chuanxin never listened to casual thoughts, he paid the bill and left.

He followed the Spring Festival team and moved forward.

Scratch your scalp and ask Benjamin Goldberg: "Do you ever feel itchy?"

Benjamin Goldberg nodded: "Yes, Master, I feel something crawling on my scalp. Also, there are bed bugs on the bed, biting people."

Zhao Yixian said: "Both of you, you must have lice and fleas on your body."

The more he talked about Zhao Chuanxin, the more uncomfortable he became.

He made up his mind to join in the fun and go back to take a good bath.

There will no longer be such lively ceremonies in later generations. In fact, in the next era, the state system will change, customs will change, and the people will be poor and have no money, and there will be no more excitement, making it difficult to see the prosperity of previous years.

After all, in the next era, especially after the death of Sun Gongwu, the melee began, the people were in dire straits, and the warlords would not spend their money on such trivial matters, even if they lost the mahjong game or spent it on their concubines.

At the front of the team is the paper-mâché Spring Ox, and at the back are the actors playing the role of 360 Lines. Although it is not professional, it is really lively.

Zhao Chuanxin likes this atmosphere.

The people followed closely behind and entered Loumen in great excitement. They first sacrificed spring cattle on the Xiannong Altar, and some people recited prayers for a good harvest.

There are also many wandering children who do not go to see the spring ox. Instead, they wander around the crowd watching the excitement, or pay attention to the pretty beaded curtains under the crystal curtains of the flower buildings on both sides.

It was crowded and lively when suddenly a loud uproar was heard.

Many people pointed fingers at Chunniu.

Zhao Chuanxin looked around and saw the five foreigners. One of them took off his newsboy hat and put it on Chunniu's head. One of them was holding a camera and taking pictures happily. The rest of the people stood next to the spring cow, posing in various poses.

Here, officials from one government and three counties are present.

An official came forward to dissuade them with a timid look: "The Spring Festival must not be desecrated. Please move to another place to play."

Several foreigners, some of whom knew some Chinese, stared: "What's wrong with taking pictures? I won't delay you."

The official obeyed, smiled and retreated.

The people pointed fingers and criticized from afar: "It's really outrageous..."

"Foreigners are just vulgar..."

"Doesn't Governor He care about it?"

He Gangde, courtesy name Xiao Ya, has been the prefect of Suzhou since the 26th year of Guangxu's reign.

His greatest contribution to Suzhou was the establishment of Suzhou's patrol team.

He Gangde also saw the foreigners making trouble. Although he was not happy when he saw those foreigners being unruly, he did not dare to do anything.

Of course there are patrols nearby, but the patrols dare not take care of it.

As a result, the tens of thousands of people present, including officials and civilians, could only watch helplessly as the foreigners became arrogant.

At first, everyone was just a little angry, but bearable.

For a moment, the foreigner who took off his hat and hung it on Chun Niu's head actually tore off a piece of colored paper from Chun Niu's body and stuck it on his face to make fun of his companions.

Now, the people were completely angry.

Next to Zhao Chuanxin, an old scholar with a beard trembling wildly, stamped his feet on the spot: "How can this not make sense? How can it not make sense..."

"How can such a big thing be done by foreign devils?"

Zhao Chuanxin said to him with a smile: "Go kill those foreign devils."

The old scholar shrank his neck and said: "A gentleman talks but never uses his hands."

Zhao Chuanxin curled his lips: "If you don't dare to go up, just stop beeping."

"you……"

Zhao Chuanxin laughed, took out a piece of wood, and carved a statue of the Virgin.

He has carved it before, and he can capture it easily.

He stood out from the crowd with a crude statue of the Virgin and came to the Xiannong Altar.

When the five foreigners saw a Chinese man approaching who was wearing a cotton robe no different from ordinary people, they didn't take it seriously and continued to laugh and joke.

Zhao Chuanxin came to them with a wooden statue of the Virgin and made a slash on the statue's face.

The five people were stunned.

Zhao Chuanxin held up the statue of the Madonna and looked at it. He shook his head and muttered in English: "Oh, it's so ugly. So you are this kind of Madonna."

His voice was not loud, but somehow it could be heard far enough away that people around him could hear it.

As he spoke, he made another mark on the chest of the Virgin Mary.

The faces of the five people looked slightly ugly.

Zhao Chuanxin shook his head again: "Oh, this seems to be stunted, let me modify it."

As he spoke, the sword was flying like flying, and the statue of the Virgin, which originally looked thin, gradually became plump.

It's just that the plumpness is a bit exaggerated.

The five people looked cold.

The foreigner took off his hat and took a step forward and said coldly: "You pagan, you are blaspheming."

Zhao Chuanxin raised his head in surprise and looked at him innocently, but he pressed his finger on a certain position of the statue of the Virgin: "Ah, it feels better now."

He didn't say anything but rubbed it back and forth with a lewd smile on his face.

On the stage, the prefect He Gangde asked the people around him: "Who understands what they said?"

Zuo Xiaotong, the chief envoy of Suzhou, who knew some English, translated: "Master magistrate, that man carved a statue of a foreign god. He..."

After hearing this, He Gangde spit out a mouthful of tea: "What a nonsense."

But no one was sent to stop him.

In the audience, the five foreigners were angry.

"You heretic, I'm going to teach you a lesson."

Zhao Chuanxin raised his hand and slapped him in the face.

Snapped……

The foreigner who took off his hat turned half a circle and fell to the ground.

This shows how powerful this slap is.

The crisp sound resounded throughout the entire audience.

The people were in an uproar.

The officials were stunned.

Really tough.

The other four foreigners saw them and rushed forward.

Zhao Chuanxin picked up the statue of the Virgin and smashed it down on his head and face.

The second man suddenly became sluggish and thick blood flowed down his forehead.

The third person, Zhao Chuanxin, raised his arm to block the incoming fist, grabbed the opponent's collar, and pulled him for a headbutt.

bang...

He had a nosebleed and collapsed.

The fourth and fifth people stopped in their tracks when they saw how vigorous Zhao Chuanxin was.

Zhao Chuanxin rushed forward and stretched out his arms.

He was tall and long-armed, and with one hand in each hand, he grabbed the two people's necks, lifted them up without any effort, and slammed them to the ground.

thump, thump...

I blanch...

The people around were stunned.

At this time, He Gangde realized that something was wrong.

After all, he was a scholar. According to his assumption, Zhao Chuanxin was just verbally humiliating a few foreigners.

But I didn't expect that Zhao Chuanxin would not only have to take it orally, but also his heart and body... Foreigners have no trouble with trivial matters, so don't make it a big deal.

He stood up suddenly and shouted: "Stop! I am He Gangde, the prefect of Suzhou. Stop it quickly..."
