Time Traveler

The powerful martial arts master was cut in the waist when he crossed the horse. It is conceivable that it caused other people to feel shocked. For a while, no one dared to move forward, but the people onlookers were even more excited. Looking at war again, it's not good enough.

The soldiers under the governor began to fire their guns. They carried large guns, held shotguns, busy ignition ropes, turned their faces aside, closed their eyes and fired their guns. These firearms were made during the Kangxi period, and the wooden handles were rotten. , If the trouble is not good, you have to explode the chamber. The black powder ignited the boss's smoke. A burst of guns shot past, not even a bird's feather. Instead, there was a smoke of gunpowder in front of him, and nothing was seen.

When the pacesetters fired, Liu Yan hid himself in a clumsy stirrup, waited for the gunfire to pass before sitting back on his horse, and then found that this action was completely unnecessary. The bullets of the Qing soldiers were inaccurate, but some boxers depended on the large number of people. The potential crowd was killed out of the gunpowder smoke.

The crisp sound of the shell gun sounded, and the boxers all fell to the ground. Liu Yan had a straight hand and shot them only in the thigh. He wouldn't kill anyone at all, and whether he would suffer a disability was not his consideration. Something up.

The four horses rushed to the door of the church in a flash. The clearing soldiers and boxers who blocked the gate had long since dispersed. The churchmen hiding inside scrambled to rush out. The foreign lady was among them, but she did not run blindly. , But the horse that went straight to Liu Yanzhi.

"Please save her. She is Catherine, the daughter of Pastor Pierre." The foreign lady forced the child to Liu Yanzhi, who was at a loss, then turned back, picked up the torch, and lit the mountain of firewood. After tidying up his clothes and hair, Shi Shiran walked into the church.

　　 The kerosene-poured firewood was burning. Liu Yanzhi was crying loudly with the child in his arms. Lei Meng rode his horse over and urged: "Come on, we'll be finished when the officers and soldiers come back."

　　 Liu Yan turned over and got off his horse, and handed the baby to Lei Meng, who was about to rush into the church.

　　 "She is begging to die, and it will be useless if you save it." Lei Meng shouted, but he couldn't stop Liu Yanzhi.

　　 A moment later, Liu Yanzhi came out of the fire, still holding the unconscious foreign woman in his arms, got on the horse, and looked around. The crowd was full of people watching the excitement, but they all hid far away a hundred steps away.

"Let's go." Liu Yan sighed, turned his horse's head and rushed towards the crowded place. The three companions followed closely. The crowd of onlookers saw them rushing, and hurriedly stepped aside to watch these brave guys. Leave.

　　 On the stand, the governor’s popular beard pouted: "Examine Benfu carefully, who are these people's subordinates."

　　 Liu Yanzhi and the others rushed out for five miles. Looking back, black smoke went straight up into the sky, and the church was already burned.

　　 Lei Meng hugged the child and complained: "You stabbed a big leak, but you also picked up two troubles. Go ahead and put the person down."

　　 Liu Yan said straightforwardly: “The people want to kill foreigners, and the government wants to kill foreigners. Don’t you put them down and wait for death, at least they must be sent to a safe place.”

　　 Lei Meng said, "The people you shouldn't have killed are killed, and the people you shouldn't have been saved are saved. This will cause big problems."

　　 Liu Yan shrugged straight: "I've been saved, it's too late to say anything." Rema stopped, put the foreign lady on the ground, took a drink from the water bottle, and sprayed it on her face.

　　 Yang's wife was agitated by the cold water, she woke up and saw her child right in front of her, and then thought of her husband with a different head, she couldn't help expressing grief.

　　 Lei Meng took out a few silver dollars from his arms and placed them in front of the mother and daughter, winking at Liu Yan, meaning to leave quickly.

　　 Liu Yan looked straight at the blonde foreigner, an idea came to him, and Lei Meng pulled aside and said in a low voice: "Beijing is also in turmoil at this time. How do we Chinese approach American officers?"

　　 A little bit of thunder can be clear: "You mean using this person can help us complete the task, well, I support you."

Back to the foreign lady again, the two parties had a simple exchange in Chinese. It turned out that this woman was the wife of a French missionary, named Sophie Pierre. Five years ago, she followed her husband to China and built a mission outside Omi City. A church has developed thousands of church members, adopted orphans, treated patients, and thought that it had done many good deeds for God, but it was still such a miserable end.

　　 "We are going to Beijing, we can take you to the French Embassy on the way." Liu Yan said straightly.

"Gentlemen, God will thank you." Sophie was grateful. Although she did not understand why some officers and soldiers wanted to kill foreigners and burn churches, these few had to risk their heads to save themselves. This is probably God's. Arrange it.

Although Sophie is a woman, she can ride a horse. It's just a European woman's side-riding style, but the saddle on the horseback is neither a lady's side saddle nor a European-style wide leather saddle, but a Chinese-style narrow wooden saddle. , She can only go to the countryside and do as she does, change the eye-catching skirt with skirts, put on the men's clothing provided by the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, tie her daughter to her body with cloth bags, anyway, there are enough horses, now The team has become six people, plus women and children, the speed will inevitably decrease, but the success rate of the mission has been greatly improved.

　　 The traversing group continued to move forward, because they were worried that the governor would send troops to chase them. They walked quickly. They walked non-stop until dusk, looking at the official road behind them, there was still no dust and smoke from the chasing soldiers, so they relaxed a little.

　　 There are no street lights on the official roads these days. I’m not afraid to meet bandits at night, just because I’m worried about taking the wrong road and delaying time. There is a wild shop in front of me, which is the place to go.

This small shop next to the official road has three rooms. There is a large shed outside, carrying wine flags. In the sunset, the wine flags are fluttering fiercely. The four people turned over and got off their horses. Liu Yan straightly helped Sophie down. The poor woman was saddled. With a faceless face tossing about the long distance, the little girl named Catherine closed her eyes, wondering if she was asleep or unconscious.

　　 The shopkeeper saw that there was an official clerk, and hurried forward to greet him. This is still the site of Jiangdong Province, but the accent has been slightly different. There is nothing delicious at the Wild Village Store, only branded tofu and sorghum liquor.

　　 "Fry two hard dishes." Lei Meng took out an eagle and patted it on the greasy table.

Seeing Yinyang, the boss's eyes are bright. I don’t see any money in a small country shop on weekdays. The small business can make up to a single penny every day. This Yingyang can buy a table of wine and food in a big restaurant in the city. .

The couple was busy killing the roosters that reported the morning at home. They were busy fading in the kitchen. The sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy first served them a jar of white wine, and several thick porcelain bowls were filled with freshly baked eggs. , And a plate of tofu mixed with shallots.

　　 "Boil a few eggs." Liu Yan directly ordered that he would not take care of the children. He only remembered that he was sick when he was a child, and his mother always boiled an egg to comfort him.

　　 Sophie sat under the shed holding her baby, her golden hair covered by her summer hat, and it was getting late, the boy didn't notice that the petite bureaucrat was a foreign woman.

　　There were jerky and flatbreads prepared by Lin Huaiyuan for them in their baggage. The young man brought a few green onions. Everyone rolled the green onions with the flatbread and feasted on them.

　　 "The guest officer is from Omi Mansion?" The young man is very clever and talks densely.

　　 "Yes, have you been to Omi?" Liu Yan answered casually.

　　 "I haven't been, I haven't even entered the county seat." The young man scratched his head, a little embarrassed, he was dragging a big braid behind his head, and it looked like he hadn't taken care of it for a long time. It was greasy and dirty.

　　 "Have you seen a foreigner?" The boy's words aroused everyone's alertness. Is it because Lei Meng calmly held the hilt of the knife.

　　 "I have seen it." Liu Yan replied straightforwardly. From the eyes of the young man, he could see that the child hadn't seen Sophie's true face.

　　 "Is that the foreigner can't bend his knees and walk straight?" The boy was very curious.

　　 "Who told you?" Liu Yan said with a straight smile, "Foreigners are not demons or ghosts, but ordinary people, but they live in places far away, and they look a little different from the people of Qing Dynasty."

"Aren't they just demons and monsters?" The young man said in a low voice, "I heard the guests who have passed by said that foreigners' warships are all made of iron, and they are covered with red cannons. A burst of cannons can knock the Omi Mansion down. Unless you pour dog blood on them, you can break the cannon of foreigners."

　　 Liu Yan laughed straight and laughed: "I was knocked down by a foreigner's quick gun before you carried a pot of dog blood. This is not reliable, it is pure nonsense."

　　 The young man retorted seriously: "The foreign gun is not unbreakable. I heard them say that if you drink the water of the runes burned by the big brother of Yihequan, you can't penetrate it."

　　 Liu Yanzhi wanted to educate him again, Lei Meng gave a dry cough, and he was about to show his stuff.

The young man said, "The worst thing is not the soldiers and horses of the foreigners, but the churches of the foreigners. They specialize in stealing children, breaking their stomachs, and smearing the walls of the church with blood. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com puts the internal organs. In the glass bottle, I heard it is used as a medicine for immortality."

　　 The shopkeeper came over with a plate of bacon, and said cheerfully, "The guest officer, take it easy, Xiaoshuan, what are you doing, don't be afraid of the guest officer's jokes."

　　 The young man said: "Uncle, I'm not talking nonsense. The back door of the church throws dead children out all day long. No one knows about this."

　　 Liu Yan said straightly: "The shopkeeper, we just chat, it doesn't matter, what he said is true?"

　　 The shopkeeper said: "I say that, 80% of them are true, it hurts the truth, and those who believe in religion are all good things."

　　 "Could the people do evil and harm the village?" Liu Yan asked directly.

"Isn't it? The church people believe in the Catholicism of foreigners, take a cross all day, just like the fame, a head higher than our flat-headed people, bullying the country, even the landlord and the squire can't fight them, why? It's not that the foreign priests supported them and caused the lawsuits, and the government also favored them. Do you think we ordinary people can not hate them? It's because the governor is wise and wholeheartedly toward us ordinary people..."

　　 His wife yelled something in the pot house. The shop gave a smile and went to help. The young man also went to help the officials and men feed the horses. Liu Yan directly asked Sophie in a low voice: "What they said is true, right?"
