Chapter 244: Shanghai Storm (IV) The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish

The Qi family divided yin and yang and determined the destiny of the world in ancient times.

During the day, they help people calculate horoscopes, choose burial sites, find dragon veins, and lock coffins. At night, they watch the mountains and count the stars, doing the business of tomb robbing.

By the time of his father's generation, they had the worst qualifications and the least cultivation.

He was even weaker and only learned the basics of his father's skills.

However, relying on his family traditions, he has become the most famous fortune teller in Changsha City. He is proficient in feng shui and numerology, and is ranked among the eighth of the Nine Gates in Changsha.

But there are three things he won't look at: foreigners, people with qilin tattoos, and strange things and weird news.

The logic is very simple, foreigners cannot understand it, and it is not the business of Chinese gods and Buddhas.

I don't read strange and bizarre stories because they often involve huge conspiracies and can easily lead to trouble.

People with Qilin tattoos are not allowed to look at it. This is a rule passed down from our ancestors. It is said that this iron rule was set by our ancestors after they encountered a strange thing several generations ago.

The Qi family has many rules and regulations. It is said that they have seen too many secrets of heaven, so they have to keep their mouths shut and avoid the world.

Many of the interesting things among them had become bedtime stories by Qi Ba's generation.

When his father was dying, he was in a daze and said some obscure words to him.

He could not remember exactly what was said, but there was one sentence that left a deep impression on him.

He (referring to Qi Tiezui) had a great disaster at the age of thirty-three, which affected the fate of all his loved ones and even affected the fate of several generations before and after him.

He needs to seek help from a great immortal named Yang who lives by the river flowing into the sea, so that he can escape and avoid death.

Qi Tiezui believed that his father's mind was confused when he died, but being a filial son, he still went to many places where rivers and seas meet and visited many famous local immortals and fortune tellers.

But no immortals were found, only charlatans, whose talents and knowledge were not as good as mine.

So gradually, he gave up this idea.

It was not until a few days ago that Zhang Dafoye found the people from the Old Nine Gates and invited them to complete this task.

Qi Tiezui suddenly remembered that he was already thirty-three years old this year.

The destined death is this year.

He was very anxious for several days from Changsha to Shanghai.

The Qi family has a family motto: only consider others, not yourself.

Fortune tellers cannot tell their own fortunes, as there will be great consequences.

But this matter was too serious, so serious that he could not even decide his own life and death. Qi Tiezui tossed and turned in bed, got up in the middle of the night, and kowtowed to his ancestors.

This was the first time, and probably the last time, that I calculated my fortune.

Looking at the result presented by the divination cup, Qi Tiezui was speechless for a long time.

Ten deaths and no life.

There is truly no chance of survival.

He didn't believe it, so he tried the copper coin method, but the result was the same.

In desperation, he also calculated for the Second Master, the Fifth Master, the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master and Chenpi, who were also from the Nine Gates.

The result is the same, ten to one death.

Qi Tiezui had no choice but to put away the divination cups and coins.

The ancestor said that this kind of hexagram is the will of heaven and cannot be defied, and even ordinary gods cannot save it.

Unless the Jade Emperor himself comes down to earth, he will definitely die.

Moreover, it was a kind of death that affected family and friends, leaving endless harm.

Clang!
The sound of a gong rang out like thunder.

He collected his confused thoughts, and the second master on the stage had already started singing.

"I am Yu Ji, serving under the command of the Overlord of Western Chu. I grew up in seclusion, and was adept at reading and swordplay from a young age."

Er Yuehong sang the female role very well. Even though she was burdened with worries, her every frown and smile showed off the charm of Concubine Yu.

"Since I followed King Ding, I have fought campaigns east and west, enduring hardships and sufferings. I don't know when peace will finally come."

"I just heard that the king is planning to send troops to destroy Han again. The ministers have repeatedly advised him not to listen, and I am afraid that we are outnumbered and will surely be defeated by Liu Bang."

"When I think about it, ah, I really don't worry about people."

"Great!!!" the audience cheered.

Fighting wars in the east and west has been arduous and arduous. I don’t know when peace will finally come.

Qi Tiezui thought about how many hardships the Nine Gates had gone through to achieve their glory, but maybe today it would be over.

The prosperity is like floating clouds disappearing, perhaps endless disasters are still waiting for me and others.

——Well, tomb robbing and grave digging will not end well in the end.

Qi Tiezui sighed secretly. In order to calm everyone down, he did not tell everyone the results of last night's divination.

He glanced at his pocket watch, thinking that Wu Ye and the others had probably sneaked in now, just waiting for this side to attract attention, so that they could succeed.

As for whether Gou Wu, Heibei Laoliu and Jie Jiu could succeed, he was not worried at all.

Any one of them had no idea how many horrific battles they had waged. Together, the three of them could probably return to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor intact.

Although this gendarmerie headquarters is equipped with both light and heavy firepower, the soldiers are not going to engage in a head-on fight with the Japanese.

Moreover, the terrain nearby is complex. As long as we can escape, we have no reason to be afraid of the Japanese.

Bang bang bang bang!

Just as Qi Tiezui was comforting himself, he heard the unique gunshots of the 14th Nambu Unit coming from the building in the backyard.

"What's going on!" Qi Tiezui's face turned pale and beads of sweat rolled down.

Didn't we clearly agree to draw attention first before taking action? Could it be that Gouwu and the others were discovered?!
——My bad mouth!

Er Yuehong on the stage also paused suddenly. He also heard the gunshots in the backyard. He saw that the audience below seemed to be affected and started to riot.

He immediately winked at Chenpi in the corner.

Chen Pi was also cruel and ruthless. Without saying a word, he ignited the explosives hidden in his armor and threw it under the stage.

boom--

The violent explosion directly collapsed the stage, which fell to the west, directly crushing several dignitaries in the front row under the wooden frame.

For a moment, screams, cries, and cries for help were louder than the last. Hundreds of people were in chaos, running around everywhere, and directly dispersed the Japanese guards at the door.

The guards inside heard the explosion outside and rushed out, thinking that the gendarmerie headquarters had been attacked.

"I said it's unlucky for the stage to face west!"

Qi Tiezui shouted loudly, then wiped the sweat from his forehead and found Chenpi in the chaos.

But I saw that he was also turning around anxiously, so I quickly called out to him: "Why don't you leave quickly?!"

Chen Pi threw Qi Tiezui away and said with a sullen face, "Second Master, Second Master is gone!"

"What?!" Qi Tiezui widened his eyes. According to the plan, shouldn't they just attract attention in the front?

Could it be that Qi Tiezui looked at the innermost building of the gendarmerie headquarters?

Did Erye go in to support Gouwu and the others?

Chenpi also realized this problem. He looked ferocious and eager to bite people, just like a living evil ghost.

When Qi Tiezui looked up and saw Chenpi's expression, his legs went weak and he almost fell down.

The words that were on the tip of my tongue could not be uttered.

"I'm going to find Erye!" Chenpi took out the pineapple knife in his hand and immediately rushed into the crowd.

Qi Tiezui wanted to hold him back, but among the Nine Gates, he was the only one who couldn't carry anything on his shoulders or with his hands. He grabbed nothing and could only stay where he was in a mess.

It's over, it's over, everything is messed up.

This time, there is really no chance of survival!
Lin Nansheng frowned and hid at the side door. He had followed Mingtai into the backyard and was still exploring carefully, but he didn't expect to hear a burst of gunfire from inside.

Which brother are you?
Central Bureau of Investigation?

Special technical department?

Or the anti-traitor team?
It can't be that this is arranged by Stationmaster Wang, right?

But I saw many guards rushing in and surrounding the room.

Lin Nansheng was also hesitant. His action had not been approved by the stationmaster of Shanghai Station. It would be bad if he broke in and disrupted the arrangements of his brothers.

But he suddenly saw a familiar figure flash by in front of him, and he immediately followed.

The figure disappeared around the corner. Lin Nansheng's heart tightened. He hurriedly took two steps and turned the corner when a Browning gun hit him on the forehead.

"Lin Nansheng, I knew it was you." The young master of the Ming family, Ming Tai, no longer had his usual dissolute and frivolous look.

Lin Nansheng broke out in a cold sweat.

He raised his hands above his shoulders: "Mingtai, I just want to come-"

"Don't say so much, this is not my home." Mingtai seemed to have noticed something and pulled him over.

A group of Japanese rushed in again from the door.

The gunshots inside became louder and louder.

"From the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics? From the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics?" Mingtian looked at him in a low voice, the gun in his hand still against his waist.

"Or is it from Yan'an?"

Seeing this familiar set of movements, Lin Nansheng thought for half a second before confessing honestly: "Military Control Commission Shanghai Station—"

"Don't talk so much. Did you just arrive?" Mingtai looked at his colleague who didn't look like a spy at all.

Young, immature, and reckless.

Lin Nansheng also realized that he had said something wrong and felt a little embarrassed. "We're surrounded by the Japanese now. Why don't we hurry and leave?"

"No!"

Mingtai suddenly had an idea and figured out the real reason why his elder brother gave him the ticket.

“The louder the storm, the more expensive the fish!”
