Chapter 463 We don’t understand those big principles

"This story is very long and it starts from sixty years ago."

Mr. He took a sip of wine, took a puff of cigarette, and exhaled a long stream of smoke.

"I'm an old villain, not a storyteller. I can't tell stories, let alone talk about big principles."

"The only thing Jianghu people can explain clearly is loyalty."

"Sixty years ago, foreigners came in, and our backbone was broken with foreign guns and cannons. The world of the past suddenly turned into a joke. The world's best masters, the world's best gangs , collapsed overnight.”

"It's not a matter of martial arts skills. It's not that we don't have real heroes in our country who are not afraid of confronting foreigners. It's not a matter of whether the court is corrupt or whether the emperor is mediocre. You may not believe this now, but back then, Everyone in the imperial court has tried their best."

"The Taoist priests in Kunlun, swordsmen in Guanzhong, monks, doctors... there are many people who have tried their best using their own familiar methods, just to make the world return to the way it was before."

"But it can't be changed."

"On the one hand, it is due to ideological reasons. We must admit that the culture of Westerners at that time was more advanced than ours. Compared with others, the gap between us and others is as obvious as the difference between rural farmers and city people."

Mr. He pointed at the shriveled human skin mask and said slowly: "Sixty years ago, the Xuanwu Fleet of the previous dynasty guarded Malacca, and the entire Southeast Asia was our inland sea. With them guarding the passes, the foreign fleets could not enter at all. "

"It makes people laugh out loud when I say it - it's not that the foreign naval guns are powerful, but that there is a mole in our own family."

"But just such a fleet was destroyed overnight. The country's gates were wide open, and foreigners were able to take advantage of the situation, go all the way north, and directly stuff the barrels of guns into our mouths."

"If we can't keep up with our ideas and concepts, we can learn from them. There's nothing shameful about it. As for you, the principal, their group of people, who were only eleven or twelve years old, were appointed by the court to travel across the ocean. Studying abroad. If you haven’t experienced it, you may not understand it. But no matter how hard it is, as long as you can bring back other people’s knowledge, life and death won’t matter.”

"Do you know how that fleet disappeared?"

"But on the other hand, there are some people who don't care about these things. Whether the ancestors are embarrassed, whether the people can survive, or whether the country is strong or weak has nothing to do with them. They only care about themselves."

"At that time, there was a wealthy family in the south. Most of the children in the family held important positions in the court, and even sat in the position of the prime minister of the current court. It can be said that they were extremely powerful."

"That family has been inherited for thousands of years, with deep roots and a large fleet. It does business all over the world and earns gold and silver. But even so, they are not satisfied. They think the court charges too many tariffs, so they want to open up the joints in Malacca. , Let your caravan pass unimpeded.”

"At that time, there was a son of a clan in their family who served as the captain of the Xuanwu Fleet. They originally thought that the matter would be easy to catch, but they did not expect that the general understood the righteousness and was unwilling to conspire with them. So they deceived the general in the name of their relatives. Go home, kill him, peel off his face, make a human skin mask and sneak into the fleet under his own name, collude with foreigners inside and outside, and annihilate the entire Xuanwu Fleet. "

Wang Yunxiao looked at the shriveled human skin mask in front of him and was speechless for a long time. It's just... hard to evaluate.

Wolves eat meat and dogs eat feces. How do you evaluate this kind of thing? How do you use human morality to evaluate this kind of thing?
Logically speaking, normal people shouldn't be able to do this kind of thing...right?
It's so magical, it feels like something a novelist just made up for a gimmick, and it's not real at all.

"Is it hard to believe it? I didn't believe it when I first heard it. It was so nonsense."

The fat boss smiled and said, "But when I followed Master in Tianmen, I must have been as old as you, and I encountered even more ridiculous things."

Mr. He shrugged and said, "You tell him this."

"I'm even more stupid. What can I explain?"

The fat boss smiled bitterly and said: "At that time, I remember that the president had just made his fortune in Tianmen, and he only had the old soldiers and horses of the Qilin Army under his command. They were not as majestic as the later expeditions in the north and south. Despite this, the court was still very afraid of her. . But all the discounts she applied will be rejected regardless of whether they are right or wrong."

"We didn't understand it at the time. Even the common people knew that people should be trusted when they are employed and not used when they are suspicious. Since the imperial court has enabled the president and asked her to train troops in Tianmen, why does it still embarrass her everywhere?"

"Later we found out that the imperial court was not monolithic, and the officials were divided into different grades. Although the family that made human skin masks was no longer alive, there were still other high-ranking families, large and small, who ate the corpses of the dead. They grew up. Not only did they have full stomachs, but they also passed on the corpse poison."

"We ordinary people don't know the specific details. I only remember that there was one company that wanted to set up a bank and develop some kind of modern financial industry. At that time, there was a business war... Look, aren't there two types on the market now? The banknotes of the previous dynasty were the ones that were the most worthless. The court also gave strong support at that time, and they used all kinds of messy names, but in the end, they were still messed up. "

Mentioning the past events, the fat boss's face was filled with sadness.

"Overnight, money ceased to be money and turned into waste paper. People's savings for many years were all turned into running water. The world, which had just gotten better, was suddenly destroyed by this money disaster. I don't know. How many innocent girls were still sewing their wedding dresses in the morning, and then were sold to the brothels at night to pick up guests. People hanged themselves on the big locust trees in the graveyard outside the city, and the trees were bent. "

"The secrets behind this are too complicated. We couldn't figure it out or explain it. But I only knew one thing at the time. They were doing it for money, and the ultimate goal of those foreigners who colluded with them was to coerce the imperial court to sign the contract with them. Documents!”

Mr. He put out his cigarette, looked at Wang Yunxiao and said seriously: "Our Yanzi sect is not a famous sect, and we have never produced any great heroes in our ancestors. We are really good men. We only rely on a little sneaking skills. We are truly a low-class sect. But. Even low-level people have their own rules and bottom lines.”

"Swallows are just a kind of bird. They are not as good as those hawks. If there is any advantage, it is caring for the family. Whether the things in the house are silk, silk, or bricks and rubble, it hurts when they are lost."

"Now, those shameless prodigal kids are back."
