Chapter 254 is not simple (please subscribe with double monthly ticket)
Jiang Mulezi was confused.
Hand grenade?
Explosives?
Lecha Hotel?
Bombing foreigners?
Hand grenade, he knew, was a grenade.
He also knows about bombs.
But, where is the Licha Hotel?
None of this matters anymore. Jiang Mulezi understands that he has been framed again?
Jiang Laosi was about to speak, but he was choked by Wowotou and rolled his eyes.
Jiang Laosan quickly handed over a bowl of water.
Jiang Laosi finally swallowed it, rolled his eyes, took another sip of water and passed it on, and finally he was able to speak, "I choked to death."
The little Taoist priest didn't say anything, he just looked at the three people and laughed.
“Taoist Priest, may I ask where this Licha Hotel is?” Jiang Mulezi asked, cupping his fists.
"Licha Hotel, the best hotel in Shanghai, is filled with foreigners and rich and powerful Chinese." The little Taoist priest bit a straw in his mouth and said, "You three brothers, fight for a year. You can stay there for one night and have a good meal."
As he spoke, he spat out the straw and said, "You guys are really brave to vote. The whole Shanghai knows the names of your brothers."
“Yes, the whole of Shanghai knows it. Only now do we know how powerful we are.” Jiang Laosan said angrily.
The little Taoist laughed.
…
“Taoist Master, please stop taking advantage of us.” Jiang Mulezi smiled bitterly and said, “If we brothers had that ability, we wouldn’t be in this situation.”
“Are you not in a hurry?” the little Taoist asked curiously.
"What's the use of being anxious?" Jiang Mulezi smiled bitterly and sighed, "We brothers are going out now and saying that we didn't do those things. Who will believe it?"
The little Taoist priest grinned and said, "You understand."
“He is a poor man who has seen through the world.” Jiang Mulezi said slowly as he gave half of his ‘leftover’ piece of cornbread to the youngest Jiang Laosi.
At this time, Jiang Laosan suddenly asked, "Taoist priest, did the bomb go off at the Licha Hotel?"
"No." The little Taoist priest said, and told the news that the patrols were dispatched and grenades, explosives and other items were found in the Licha Hotel. "Ginger Mule" and others ran away in advance when the patrols arrived.
While speaking, he had been observing the reactions of these people.
Jiang Laosan frowned and thought. He wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but immediately shut it up.
Jiang Laosi had just swallowed half of the steamed bun and almost choked again. Upon seeing this, Jiang Laosan handed over another bowl of water.
Jiang Luozi patted Jiang Laosi on the back. After Jiang Laosi had calmed down, he looked at the little Taoist priest and said, "Taoist Master, thank you for saving me. We brothers are very grateful."
“The words of thanks are pleasant to listen to and not full to the stomach.” The little Taoist priest said with a smile.
"We brothers have no money or anything, so we have a lot of strength." Jiang Mulezi looked at the little Taoist priest, "If the Taoist Master doesn't dislike it, the lives of the three Jiang Mulezi brothers will belong to the Taoist Priest."
…
Hearing this, Jiang Laosan's expression changed and he was about to speak, but when Jiang Mulezi glared at him, he could only lower his head in a depressed manner.
Jiang Laosi was drinking water, and accidentally dropped the bowl on the ground. Jiang Laosi looked silly, picked up a broken piece of the bowl, and licked the water on it.
However, the little Taoist priest saw that the silly Jiang Laosi's gesture of grabbing the broken bowl pieces was not holding it with his palms up, but holding it with his palms down. He had no doubt that the next second This Jiang Laosi would suddenly get violent and try to insert the bowl piece into his neck.
"What do I want with your lives?" The little Taoist stood up, patted the straw crumbs on his butt, shook his head and said, "If Master Jiang doesn't mind, in a few days, Pindao can find a way for you."
After saying that, the little Taoist priest took out two more wotou and a pickle lump from his arms, bent down and put it in Jiang Laosi's hand. He smiled and patted Jiang Laosi on the head, "Eat it, eat it."
The little Taoist took the lantern hanging on the wall, opened the door, went out, turned around and closed the door of the woodshed again.
The woodshed immediately fell into darkness.
“You’re just laughing.” Jiang Lao San patted Lao Si on the head, “That Taoist priest is so clever that he’s seen through you a long time ago.”
Jiang Laosi was not angry. He picked up the steamed bun and took a big bite, and then took a bite of pickles. He squinted his eyes as if he was enjoying the best delicacy in the world.
“Brother, do we really want to follow this Taoist priest?” Jiang Laosan asked.
“Yeah.” Jiang Mulezi hummed.
“Brother, this Taoist priest is so weird. Who knows if he is pointing us to a way of life or a way of death?” Jiang Laosan said in a low voice.
“Is there any difference between the road of life and the road of death?” Jiang Mulezi said, as if talking to himself.
Jiang Laosan also fell silent, gritting his teeth and saying nothing.
Jiang Laosi happily gnawed on the steamed buns, one mouthful of steamed buns and one mouthful of pickles, but he didn't choke anymore.
After a while, Jiang Laosan spoke again, "Brother, the people who framed us today are different from those in the past."
"What's the difference?" Jiang Mulezi asked. He was cautious and relied on the experience of surviving in the world. However, he knew that he was not as smart as the third child.
“No one died!” Jiang Laosan said.
The little Taoist priest does not live in the Taoist house. The place where he sleeps is in a small house not far from the woodshed.
This is the backyard of the Taoist temple. The young Taoist priest delivers firewood to the kitchen in advance every day, so no one comes here.
Going back to his hut and lying on the small bed, the little Taoist let out a laugh.
He originally thought that these brothers were the kind of reckless men with one mind. If Jiang Laosan hadn't said, "Did the bomb go off at the Licha Hotel?" He was confused and alerted, and he wouldn't have discovered Jiang Laosan. The fourth child is pretending to be stupid and is always ready to get angry and hurt others.
To be honest, I was almost deceived.
Think about it, if you can still survive under the pursuit of Yamenli, Green Forest, and Yangyamen, you must have some brains and means.
…
“That’s wrong.” Cheng Qianfan frowned.
He recalled the files about Jiang Mulezi and his group in his mind.
This is the real dossier.
It is not the kind of open dossier that deceives citizens and newspapers.
Jiang Mulezi seemed to have great prestige among the fishermen. He summoned several fishermen who were unwilling to continue to be oppressed by the fishing tyrants and tried to resist. In the end, the action failed, and his family members were killed and they fled in panic.
The introduction to this section in the dossier is very brief, but there is no mention of why Jiang Mulezi’s action failed.
It was this simple dossier, and the subsequent sad experience of Jiang Mulezi and his gang being framed one after another, and their attempt to attack the Japanese sentry with an egg against a stone.
Such situations misled Cheng Qianfan, making him subconsciously think that Jiang Mulezi and his party were reckless people.
However, Cheng Qianfan thought about it carefully and realized that things were not as simple as he imagined.
Let’s not talk about whether the statement that **** mule is quite prestigious among fishermen is true.
Nor consider why Jiang Mulezi’s action against the fishing tyrants failed.
After the failure, even after being framed by various frame-ups, and being rounded up by the police, French Concession patrols, public concession patrols, fishing tyrants, gangs, water bandits, etc., this group of people was able to escape for so long.
How can he be the kind of person who is easy to do? !
Jiang Mulezi and others may not have gone to school and are uneducated, but being illiterate does not mean they are not smart enough.
"Xiapi." Cheng Qianfan said to Bai Xiaoxia, "Go to the little Taoist priest and tell him that Jiang Mulezi and his gang are not that simple, so he should treat them with caution."
