The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 285 Relief, happiness, and comfort

The little eunuch said, reaching out and pushing the wardrobe open.

There was more residual sand underneath the wardrobe.

And there is an extra hole in the wall.

This hole is like a stone hole growing in a brick wall, abrupt but integrated.

Inside is a telegraph machine.

Li Xi patted his chest: "It was the right thing to keep him here for one night. The money was not wasted after all. By the way, where are the others?"

The little eunuch said: "Mr. Zhao is on top of us."

Li Xi looked up, but there was nothing.

The little eunuch pointed to the top of his head: "It's on the tiles."

With that said, he took Li Xi outside.

"Mr. Zhao, Hirobumi Ito has left."

Just hearing the crisp impact of the tiles above his head, Zhao Chuanxin landed gracefully and elegantly.

"Just now I wanted to help you kill Ito Hirobumi, but the little eunuch stopped me."

Li Xi felt that Zhao Chuanxin's landing posture was very admirable, and he didn't know how he came down slowly like a falling leaf.

But when he heard Zhao Chuanxin's words, he was shocked: "Absolutely not, that will be troublesome!"

Then he glanced at the little eunuch with admiration.

If Zhao Chuanxin were to kill Ito Hirobumi in Qingyun Palace, then Li Xi would be in trouble today.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled indifferently: "Haha, don't get excited, don't get excited. It will be the same when you go out to settle accounts with him."

As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them saw a commotion at Dahan Gate from a distance.

Zhao Chuanxin faintly heard several gunshots coming from outside the palace.

Li Xi's expression changed, and he immediately thought like a frightened bird - are the Japanese coming to kill him?

He is always on tenterhooks every day, fearing that he will fall into a place of eternal destruction, which will lead to neurasthenia and emotional sensitivity.

Not long after, some guards came running towards this side from a distance.

When Zhao Chuanxin saw this, he said, "Okay, I'll go back to the roof to hide."

With that said, he activated the blue ghost armor and jumped onto the roof again.

Before Li Xi could marvel at Zhao Chuanxin's ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth, the guards had already arrived.

"Your Majesty, someone is assassinating Commander Ito outside."

Li Xi and the little eunuch were shocked.

They both raised their heads almost at the same time, and the guard also raised his head in confusion.

It was said that someone was assassinating Ito Hirobumi outside. What were these two doing?

Of course they didn't see anything.

Li Xi subconsciously raised his head, but felt something was wrong, and quickly changed the subject: "How is Commander Ito? Is he okay?"

The guard shook his head: "Commander Ito fell in a pool of blood. He was shot in the chest and abdomen. He doesn't know whether he is alive or dead."

Li Xi almost cheered.

But he immediately started to think forward and backward: If Ito Hirobumi died outside the palace, would the Japanese think that this matter was related to him? Will they come to investigate?

He quickly asked: "Have you caught the murderer?"

"No, these people came well prepared. They fired at the same time. After they succeeded, they did not wait on the spot to see if Commander Ito was dead. They left directly."

"I know, go pay close attention to Commander Ito's physical condition. Hey, why did such a tragedy happen? Hum...cough cough..."

After the guards left, Zhao Chuanxin jumped down again.

Li Xi rushed forward: "Tell me, is this the manpower you arranged?"

Zhao Chuanxin listened really brightly from the rooftop.

He secretly thought that this group of people worked neatly and neatly, and their style was very similar to his own, Zhao. They were a very professional construction team... no, they were professional funeral service personnel.

"This is unlikely, right?"

Zhao Chuanxin rolled his eyes and spoke ambiguously.

He had promised Li Xi before that he would kill Ito Hirobumi.

Now that someone has intercepted my Hu, if I directly deny that I did it.

Then Li Xi can't ask him for money?

But it's not okay to admit it casually. This matter has caused a lot of trouble. There is no airtight wall in the world, and sooner or later some rumors will come out.

Seeing that he was evasive, Li Xi said confidently, "Hey, you should wait until Ito Hirobumi is far away before taking action."

Zhao Chuanxin coughed and said, "Yes, I thought so too. I originally planned to go directly to the Japanese Tongyuan Mansion to raise his head."

I didn’t admit it, but I still didn’t deny it.

And he was telling the truth, that was what he had thought before.

Li Xi sighed heavily when he heard this.

What has happened has already happened, and it is impossible to recover.

He could only say: "Since the first two things have been completed, you can take Li Xiangxi back to the Qing Dynasty."

All Zhao Chuanxin's planned plans, whether intentional or unintentional, have been completed so far.

He blinked: "Okay, let's go then."

"..."

Li Xi suddenly felt that something was wrong.

But he couldn't tell.

As for the little eunuch, as a bystander, he saw more clearly.

Zhao Chuanxin's expression and body movements didn't look like he was telling the truth.

But at this time, the little eunuch was determined not to talk too much.

It seems that Mr. Zhao has a bad temper.

When something happened, Zhao Chuanxin climbed over the wall from behind Jingguanxuan and left Qingyun Palace.

He was also curious about who assassinated Ito Hirobumi.

However, sooner or later things will come to light.

It would be better to escape before Li Xi discovers the truth.

Two days later, Zhao Chuanxin took Li Sangxi to Jemulpo.

In Seoul, everyone knows that Ito Hirobumi was assassinated outside the Qingyun Palace.

Ito Hirobumi was rescued by the hospital, but he could not be saved due to a ruptured spleen and died in the end.

Many people lit firecrackers to celebrate the good news.

Many people pretended to be having a happy event, put up lanterns and streamers, and tied red paper to the rope at the gate.

If someone asks: "What does the red paper tied to the forbidden rope mean?"

That person would answer: "When a very evil person dies, his soul will continue to cause harm to the world. You must use red paper to ward off evil spirits."

It is said that Hasegawa Yomichi was very angry. It is said that the Japanese Emperor personally mourned Ito Hirobumi. It is said that Seoul is conducting a city-wide effort to arrest thugs...

This world is like propaganda, and news is ink.

Even if the ink doesn't want to move, Shengxuan will actively absorb and smudge the ink.

The news seemed to spread faster than Zhao Chuanxin and Li Xiangxi were on their way.

Zhao Chuanxin and Li Sangseok arrived at Jemulpo.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at the still bustling streets and said: "The food in Jemulpo is good. Lao Li, let's go, I will take you to eat grilled salmon, scallion pancakes and ramen."

Back then, Zhao Chuanxin slapped Li Xiangxi in the Shizuo Palace.

This guy has always been aggrieved.

Along the way, no one paid much attention to Zhao Chuanxin.

Seeing his sullen face, Zhao Chuanxin said: "Look, you can't get over what happened back then? I don't take it to heart at all. Can't you learn to be more generous like me?"

Li Xiangxi finally couldn't hold it back: "This is really unreasonable. You slapped me, why do you take it to heart? What can you do to be generous?"

Zhao Chuanxin's face was serious: "You can't say it like that. Let me ask you, how did the name of the God of War spread?"

"It's not a good reputation to kill people."

Zhao Chuanxin automatically ignored the second half of his sentence: "Yes, I have a bad temper. When you offended me, I didn't kill you, I just slapped you. You know this is for the God of War. What kind of personal insult is it? What kind of harm is it? But look at me, I don’t care about it at all now."

"..." Li Xiangxi was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time. Finally, he just squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Shameless!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Lao Li." Zhao Chuanxin smiled again and took his arm to the grilled salmon stall: "Pick out the largest of the three pieces of meat for me to grill."

The whole salmon is about 60 centimeters, which is really not small.

Li Xiangxi didn't want to pay attention to Zhao Chuanxin at first, but when he saw him asking for the three largest pieces, he couldn't help but dissuade him: "I can't finish it."

"What do you mean? You want to eat too? I thought you were angry and full. Boss lady, give me another small piece for my friend."

"..."

This is a mom-and-pop stall, all Japanese.

My husband is bald, so I don't have to worry about losing hair on food.

My wife is quite fair, and can be considered pretty except for her small and narrow eyes.

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't help but gushed: "Boss boss, be careful, the oil has collapsed on your chest. I am a clean person and hate this. Please let me wipe it for you."

As he said that, he reached out his hand.

The boss was startled and jumped in front of his wife, blocking Zhao Chuanxin's movement.

Zhao Chuanxin stopped: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was instinctive, I couldn't hold it back."

The Japanese couple couldn't understand Chinese and just stared at Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin switched to English again: "I didn't mean to, I'm sorry."

The two of them were doubtful, but they relaxed.

Li Xiangxi was stunned, and then spat out: "It's really insulting to gentlemen."

Zhao Chuanxin didn't take it seriously and asked again: "Madam boss, are you married? Can I treat you to a meal?"

Li Xiangxi began to feel uncomfortable and really wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

The landlady could barely understand English, but the Japanese man couldn't.

The landlady bit her lip, she was shy, lowered her head and didn't reply.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m worried about my husband’s misunderstanding or something else.

Li Xiangxi pulled Zhao Chuanxin: "What are you doing? Don't make trouble over nothing! The man is right next to you. If you tease him like this, aren't you worried about him getting violent and beating you?"

Zhao Chuanxin shook his head seriously: "Don't worry."

Li Xiangxi suddenly remembered something.

Looking at the Japanese man who was about 1.5 meters tall, he said angrily: "No one can bully others like you."

Zhao Chuanxin was happy: "Haha, Li Xi also told Ito Hirobumi that he would not bully others like this. Do you see how Ito Hirobumi treated him? Do you know that you only push yourself to the limit? Compared to the Japanese, I am nothing."

"It's not the same thing."

"Stupid, if there are only two kinds of people in the world, those who bully others and those who are bullied. I must be the bully, and you must be the one being bullied."

"..."

The lady boss is really quiet and has a temperament that makes people want to ravage her.

With her slender and beautiful hands, she used a brush to apply a layer of Japanese sweet soy sauce on the salmon, then lemon juice, and finally a layer of Korean spicy sauce.

Turn over and continue this process.

Carefully and earnestly, but from time to time, he cautiously looked at Zhao Chuanxin with the corner of his eye.

Zhao Chuanxin was watching it with great interest. The owner of the scallion pancake stall next to him was a Korean and was talking to the customers.

They speak Korean:

"Have you heard? That Hirobumi Ito was assassinated by the God of War Zhao Chuanxin."

"What? Who said that?"

"Who said that? This matter has been spread. It is said that in addition to forming the God of War team, the God of War also established a Thunder Cult. The God of War was the first leader. It was Hirobumi Zhao who sent someone to kill him."

"What is the Thunder Cult?"

"On that day, deputy leader Li Xiuji summoned thunder and killed the national thief Li Wanyong. The God of War Zhao Chuanxin also had the ability to summon thunder..."

Zhao Chuanxin didn't understand, but Li Xiangxi understood.

His eyes widened: "Did you kill Ito Hirobumi?"

"What?"

Zhao Chuanxin didn't know why he suddenly said this.

Li Xiangxi repeated the conversation of the person next to him.

Zhao Chuanxin also widened his eyes.

"It turns out to be Li Xiuji who is so stupid?"

Zhao Chuanxin was secretly shocked.

In just two or three days, Li Xiuji was able to do so many things? They also formed some sort of Thunder Cult, which sounded awesome.

The most important thing is that he kills people with one strike, which is incredibly efficient.

As expected, they are indeed the Axis Powers of the universe, born with evil elements.

As for putting this shit basin on his head, Zhao Chuanxin didn't care.

Looking around, he saw that he had too many enemies to count.

Besides, this is an honor, right?

Maybe it will be in the history books.

Thinking of this, Zhao Chuanxin chuckled and went to the scallion pancake stall next to him: "Boss, spread out three pancakes for me to celebrate."

As he spoke, he made a "three" gesture.

The boss took the money and gave change with a smile.

When the cakes were ready, Zhao Chuanxin asked the boss to make a separate one.

He took the cake and handed it to the landlady: "Here, we agreed to treat you to dinner."

The proprietress Xiafei's cheeks were full and she didn't want to accept it.

But Lao Zhao kept holding it up, and the proprietress secretly glanced at her man with a suspicious expression, as well as the bakery stall owner next to him with a teasing look.

She was tormented by being looked at by all kinds of people. She was eager to get rid of it, so she quickly took it and bowed slightly to Zhao Chuanxin: "Thank you."

When she lowered her head, her collar was a little open. Zhao Chuanxin took a look and grinned in amusement.

The moral gentleman Li Xiangxi said bitterly from the side: "You are as shameless as Gao Yanei in "Water Margin"."

"Gao Yanei counts a lot, and everyone still says that I, Ximen Qing, have five unique skills."

"..."

Zhao Chuanxin took the already grilled salmon from the proprietress, took the opportunity to touch his little hand, and watched the proprietress return the hand like a frightened deer.

Only then did he laugh out loud, and proudly entered the ramen restaurant next to him under the angry gaze of the boss.

Thinking of the shy and timid look of the Japanese landlady, Li Xiang felt dissatisfied: "I really can't understand how she could show that kind of expression to you. It's really unreasonable."

"Haha, are you sour?" Zhao Chuanxin curled his lips. "Remember, women like bad-looking men like me, not bad-looking men like you."

"you……"

Li Xiangxi was furious, but when he looked up at Zhao Chuanxin, he looked like he couldn't beat him, so he said angrily: "I'm too lazy to care about you."

If you want to eat grilled salmon, scallion pancakes and ramen at the same time, you have to do this like Zhao Chuanxin.

I bought it outside and brought it into the ramen restaurant.

The clerk came forward, looked at what Zhao Chuanxin was holding, and reminded, "Sir, our store does not support take-out food."

Li Xiangxi had already sat down, but when he heard this, he stood up again.

However, Zhao Chuanxin did not move. Instead, he opened the salmon, took a bite, chewed and said, "Okay, I know, go and get two bowls of ramen."

Shop assistant: "..."

Li Xiangxi: "..."

Zhao Chuanxin raised his head and said in a bad tone: "Baga, what are you doing standing still? Ma Liu is going to make ramen, don't make me angry!"

The female clerk's face turned pale. She didn't dare to say anything, turned around and walked towards the kitchen with small steps.

At first Li Xiangxi felt embarrassed, then angry, but now he has become helpless and used to it.

He sat back again, thinking with all his might, "Just drop it as much as you like."

Zhao Chuanxin ate a piece of scallion pancake and a piece of grilled salmon.

Seeing that the ramen was not ready yet, he took out a cigarette and lit it.

The clerk, whose face was smeared like a dead child, came forward again nosy.

However, this time she spoke much more tactfully.

She said: "Sir, well, American scientists say that smoking is bad for the body and harmful to health."

After saying that, she looked at Zhao Chuanxin cautiously, fearing that he would get angry.

Li Xiangxi saw a sign hanging on the wall of the noodle shop that read: No Smoking.

Zhao Chuanxin flicked the ashes from his cigarette, looked serious, and nodded in agreement.

"Let me tell you this, there is only one end for those who smoke regularly!" With the fingers holding the cigarette, he nodded at the clerk and then himself:

"——Relieve stress, be happy, just feel comfortable!"

Grass……

Li Xiangxi dodged his waist.

The clerk was confused.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled disdainfully and took a deep breath of cigarette. His breath was long and powerful, and the puff of cigarette puffed far away on the clerk's face.

The choking clerk coughed.

She reached out and fanned the air.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Don't force me to slap you when you are happiest. Why don't you get out of here?"

The clerk was so frightened that he turned around and left.

Li Xiangxi took a deep breath: "What you do is a bit chauvinistic."

Zhao Chuanxin threw away the cigarette butt: "Nonsense, I am a man, not a masculine chauvinist, am I practicing chauvinism? Rabbitism? Or feminism? This is really fucking incomprehensible, do you have the brain to go to a bar? "

Li Xiangxi said angrily: "I mean, male chauvinism!"

"In this era, if men are not aggressive at all, how can they protect their families and their country? Do you think you are a good person if you go out to have sex every day, respect this, respect that, and self-castrate your maleness? I find that, Lao Li, you are a treacherous person. Take good care of yourself.”

Li Xiangxi threw his chopsticks on the table: "I just can't bear to see you bullying women. What kind of hero are you?"

"Haha, do you believe that I have never slept with any woman from my country in this era? Also, I think the Japanese have trained you Koreans very well. You still haven't fucking done it yet. Do you understand that no matter whether Japanese women or men, there is no innocent person?"

Li Xiangxi really didn't understand. He argued: "War has nothing to do with women or the people."

Zhao Chuanxin looked at him with pitiful eyes: "Do you think that the Japanese troops who invaded Korea have been soldiers for generations, right? None of them came from the common people, right? Are you a fucking fool? If necessary, their All men are targeted for conscription. The man who gives you ramen now may go to the battlefield to kill your dog tomorrow. Their women may become spies after leaving this door, do you understand?"

Li Xiangxi was left speechless by the spray.

In terms of combat effectiveness against enemies, Zhao Chuanxin is not bragging, and everyone nowadays is just scum.
