Chapter 29 The Origin of Liu Er
"What a trick!" Chen Gu couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Just when Zhang San shouted for help, Bian Shichun was already nearby, but the three of them didn't notice him.
If the three of them had not spoken in a low voice in front of the wild boar, and if Bian Shichun and his men had not made some noise when they continued to move forward, Chen Gu would not have been able to find them.
As for Liu Er, it was probably because of the power of the rifle that he was too excited and didn't notice them.
Liu Er now understood why Chen Gu had given him that look just now.
"Brother Killer is in a really good mood. Well, he is also lucky. He comes to the mountains to hunt so late and can catch such a big wild boar!" Bian Shichun said with a smile.
"That's thanks to the fact that there are enough prey in your forest!" Chen Gu raised his eyebrows and said.
"Speaking of this, outsiders are not allowed to hunt in my forest. Of course, it's okay for you to come and play occasionally!" Bian Shichun said with a smile.
Liu Er frowned and said, "It's getting late today. Go back and tell your master that I will visit him tomorrow."
Chen Gu waited for a while, and became a little impatient. "If you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, forget it. What do you mean by acting like this?"
Bian Shichun looked at the three men's backs as they left, a thoughtful expression on his face. He had just seen Chen Gu shooting a wild boar with his own eyes.
"Let's go back first!" Liu Er said to Chen Gu, and then took the lead and walked ahead.
After returning to the city, Liu Er gave all the turtledoves to Zhang San and sent him back. Then, after he and Chen Gu returned home, Liu Er took out his wine gourd and sat at the table, drinking for a long time without saying a word.
Secondly, Liu Er just mentioned his elders, so it would be even more difficult for Bian Shichun to continue to pester him. After all, they are in the same county, and Bian Shichun is not afraid that the other party will run away directly, so he can take it slow.
The reason why he let the three men go so easily was that he didn't want to have a conflict with them. In addition to being afraid of the gun in Chen Gu's hand, Bian Shichun was even more afraid of Liu Er.
Chen Gu looked at the wild boar and said to Bian Shichun, "Since your forest does not allow outsiders to hunt, I can't break the rules. I'll leave this wild boar to you."
"Take the wild boar with you and go back. Remember not to tell anyone what happened today, not even to your family!" Bian Shichun ordered his men.
The Bian family is a powerful family that has been entrenched in Jiangjin County for hundreds of years. Those people who could be brought out alone by Bian Shichun were all slaves who had relied on the Bian family for generations. There was no need to worry about their loyalty. After all, their entire family depended on the Bian family for survival, and their family members were also under the control of the Bian family.
"Alas!" Liu Er sighed and said with a wry smile, "I don't know where to start for the moment."
"Then let's start from the beginning!" said Chen Gu.
Zhang San looked at the wild boar with a reluctant expression on his face, but he still quickly caught up with Chen Gu.
One can imagine how powerful the gun must be to be able to kill such a big wild boar with just one shot. Naturally, Bian Shichun was envious.
Bian Shichun was stunned for a moment, thought about it, nodded and said: "Then the Bian family will be waiting for you, sir!"
"That's a long story!"
"It's okay, I have plenty of time. Besides, can't you just keep it short?"
"My ancestor is Liu Tichun, a general of Dashun. After the Qing army entered the pass, he continued to fight against the Qing army in eastern Sichuan for 20 years." Liu Er said this with excitement and full of pride. "What is Dashun?" Chen Gu was confused.
Liu Er almost broke down, looked at Chen Jue with disdain, and then explained: "Dashun is the name of the country established by King Chuang. If the Qing Dynasty is a tiger or leopard, then the Ming Dynasty emperor is at least a jackal.
There are more than a million Zhu family members. They plundered the people's land and property, imposed countless taxes, and the people were living in poverty. Only King Chuang was truly kind to the people, willing to divide the land equally among the people and lead them to live a good life. "
No matter who he is, he will always have his own supporters. No matter how bad Li Zicheng was, there were so many people willing to follow him to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. There must be a reason for this.
Chen Gu would not refute this point. He didn't even know about the Dashun Dynasty, so naturally he didn't know how to refute it.
However, in Chen Gu's opinion, dividing the land equally among the people is a good idea. After all, wasn't the land in later generations divided equally among everyone?
"Then why do you want to kill Addis?" Chen Gu asked.
"Then why do you want to kill Addis?" Liu Er asked back.
Chen Gu raised his eyebrows and sneered: "It's the same as the Bai family. Anyone who does opium business deserves to die!"
Liu Er was silent for a moment, then said, "I have no hatred towards Adis, but his father Zhangjia Agui. More than 30 years ago, Agui was the governor of Sichuan, and during his tenure, he hunted down anti-Qing patriots.
They even took the opportunity to randomly arrest and plunder innocent people. My family was one of the victims back then, otherwise I wouldn't have ended up here and ended up being a murderer. I'd be unworthy of being a son if I didn't take revenge."
"So that's how it is. Then what have you prepared for revenge over the years?" Chen Gu asked with interest.
Liu Er glanced at Chen Kui and asked, "Have you heard of the Gelaohui?"
Chen Gu shook his head and said, "I have heard of the Pao Brothers Society. Wang Jian and Wang Wu are members of the Pao Brothers Society, and Zhang San has also joined."
"There is some connection between the two!" Liu Er thought for a moment and said, "A hundred years ago, Chen Yonghua founded the Tiandihui, which was later divided into three groups: the Hongmen in Guangdong and Guangxi, the Qingbang in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the Gelaohui in Sichuan and Bashu."
“Red flowers, green leaves, white lotus roots, all people are one family?” Chen Gu couldn’t help but think of a sentence he had heard before, so he recited it aloud.
Liu Er couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "That's not wrong. In recent years, the Gelaohui has been mixed with the White Lotus Sect, and there is even a trend of merging."
"The White Lotus Sect is not a good thing!" Chen Gu couldn't help but curl his lips.
If you want to be involved in gangs, just be involved in gangs. Why do you want to get involved with cults?
That stuff is almost like a pyramid scheme scam.
"By the way, you said that the person who founded the Tiandihui was called Chen Yonghua, wasn't he Chen Jinnan?" Chen Gu asked curiously. He didn't know who Chen Yonghua was, but he was very familiar with Chen Jinnan.
"Chen Yonghua is Chen Jinnan!" Liu Er nodded and explained, "Chen Yonghua is his real name. He was a general under Zheng Chenggong. He came back to establish an anti-Qing organization, so he couldn't use his real name, so he changed his name to Chen Jinnan."
"Okay, so the Gelaohui is a branch of the Tiandihui. My apologies!" Chen Jue pretended to bow to Liu Er and then asked, "What position do you hold in the Gelaohui?"
"Of course it's the master sitting in the hall!" Liu Er said in a deep voice.
"Are you the boss?" Chen Gu couldn't help but become interested and asked, "Then how many people do you have under you?"
