$34-Goodbye Big Fish (1/2)

Si Qingheng had excellent control and quickly controlled his emotions.

"What's the situation like now?" he asked.

Si Qingyan returned a meaningful look.

He has been staying with Si Qingheng recently, and the priest doesn't like to go out to inquire about these things. How could he know the situation outside?

"If it's convenient tonight, I'll go out and have a look." Si Qingyan thought for a while and added.

Si Qingheng shook his head, since what happened has happened, there is no room for reversal. Even if Si Qingyan goes out now, nothing will change. Even though Si Qingyan is very powerful, Wancheng is full of Japanese troops at this time. Si Qingyan has an outstanding appearance and is very recognizable. If someone sees him, he will be put in a very dangerous situation.

"Let's talk about it after a while." Si Qingheng pondered for two seconds.

"Okay." In the past, Si Qingyan would go out as soon as she said it, but recently she had consumed too much and felt powerless. Except for sandalwood beads, no items with spiritual energy have been found. Use some and use less. Once the spiritual energy in the body is exhausted, the physical condition will decline rapidly.

"..." Si Qingheng had a lot to say, such as how Si Qingyan rescued him, why he took such a big risk, even risking his life... After thinking about it, he had nothing after all. explain. If their positions were swapped, he would make the same decision as Si Qingyan. Instead, words become barren.

"Let's recuperate here first. When you feel better, I will find a way to send you to the south, where the situation is much more stable. You have to recuperate for at least two years now, and you must not go to the battlefield. When you feel better, we can try again. other."

What Si Qingyan said was decided after careful consideration.

Si Qingheng is not suitable for politics. Regardless of his identity, background, or personal behavior and habits, he is only suitable to be a sharp sword under an outstanding person in power, an invincible general, or a prince who has made great achievements and conquered all lands. However, he had been a warlord, worked with the Nanjing government, and finally broke up with him... Such a rich resume is not suitable for development in the country. The superior person will first think that he is a person who is difficult to control and has a deep scheming mind. He is like a powerful time bomb that will explode without knowing when. With so many people in the world, is there a shortage of generals who can fight? He is not someone who cannot be abandoned by those in power, and his life safety cannot be guaranteed. The domestic political situation is too complex, and various forces are as deeply entangled as the roots of a tree. Even if Si Qingheng joins in, he will not be able to make a big splash.

The land of more than nine million square kilometers has given birth to too many talented people, many of whom have outstanding families and millions of soldiers. Compared with those who have grown up, Si Qingheng is too immature. Moreover, his ideas are very domineering and not very democratic.

Thinking of the possible huge turmoil in the future, Si Qingyan just wanted to send Si Qingheng far away, preferably to Boss Su as his younger brother. On the surface, Si Qingheng seems to be doing very well, but compared to Boss Su, who has terrifying power invisibly, he still lacks a lot. Of course, their personalities and identities are very different, so there is no need to compare them together.

"What about you?" Si Qingheng thought for a while and did not refuse.

He doesn't have to go to the battlefield.

He thought about the battle in Wancheng over and over again. Although he knew the crux of the matter, he had no solution. Nowadays, everyone who can speak in the country has military power. These two words are very mysterious. It seems that you can have it with just a raise of your arms. In fact, feeding countless people is a big problem. Behind each force is operating its own It is impossible for a group to merge into one force until it is under absolute pressure.

If he and Qingyan were born ten or twenty years earlier and had enough time to accumulate strength and develop, they would definitely be able to change the current situation.

Now I just feel pain and want to try other ways out.

"There are still many things that I need to deal with, such as those students who moved south, I wonder if the school has been rebuilt..." Of course, Si Qingyan had more important things, but he couldn't tell Si Qingheng.

"You are a person with strong opinions. No one can stop you from doing anything you want to do. I just hope that you put your own safety first and protect yourself. That is more important than anything else." Si Qingheng said.

Si Qingheng had long been accustomed to Si Qingyan's behavior, so he was not surprised by this. It would be strange if Si Qingyan suddenly said that she wanted to find a place to retire.

"Since you agreed, let's leave it like this for now." Si Qingyan nodded and said:

"The priest is a nice person. You should have a good rest in the near future, sleep more when you have nothing to do, and don't keep your eyes open thinking about things."

"good."

In recent years, Si Qingheng has been like a ship pushed by the waves. He has no time to rest or even take a breath. He often can only sleep for two or three hours a night. During the period of recuperation, he had nothing to do. He could have a good rest, but he was painfully idle.

In order to pass the time, he reviewed what he had done in the past few years, constantly picking out the areas where he had not done it perfectly or made mistakes, and repeatedly simulated what should be done when the scene was reset.

Always have something to think about. All the people who used to meet every day were dead, and only myself and Si Qingyan were left... Every time I realized this, I felt weird. Even this world has become extremely empty, as if it were made of paper.

Si Qingyan was also very free. She read over and over the Bible given by the priest, almost memorizing it backwards, and finally waited for the opportunity to leave.

Stephen's family was worried about him staying in the war zone, so they specially sent someone to pick him up and take him to the United States.

When war brews to a certain extent, it is difficult for the participants not to lose their minds.

The priest wanted to stay for a few more years, but he couldn't persuade his family, so he decided to return to his hometown to live for a while.

Career is valuable, but life is more valuable.

"I have a farm in my hometown, where the scenery is beautiful and sparsely populated. You can live there."

After learning about Si Qingheng's identity, the priest has been very enthusiastic towards them.

Wancheng is heavily guarded and it is very inconvenient to leave. This is already a very rare opportunity that cannot be missed.

"Please." Si Qinglan and Si Qingyan agreed.

During the period of recuperation, Si Qingyan went out.

Wancheng was occupied by the Japanese army. To the north of Wancheng, the National Army heavily guarded Beiping. The two sides were in a stalemate. It seemed that the war was about to break out, but in fact it was in a delicate balance.

The soldier who died in place of Si Qingheng was regarded as Si Qingheng by the Japanese army. They originally wanted to hang his head on the city wall, but they were afraid of arousing public anger. In the end, they let Liu Saner bury "Si Qingheng" with Yin Siting.

If Si Qingheng still wants to raise an army, he can just say that he is not dead. If he does not want to start all over again in China, he might as well give up this identity.

Si Qingheng thought about it for a long time and finally chose the latter.

At present, the Nanjing government is still the main force in China, which he really does not like.

At that time, he will be involved in many troublesome things, which will make it inconvenient to act.

Health is the capital. He must live well and live to the age of eighty or ninety. Every day of his life should not be wasted, and he should give full play to his greatest value.

Unlike the knowledgeable Si Qingyan, he does not have the ability to directly transform technology into productivity, nor is he as proficient in business as Si Qinglan. Apart from training soldiers and fighting wars and handling government affairs, he does not have any skills.

After Si Qingheng realized this, he considered all walks of life, but still did not decide what to do.

Before leaving Wancheng, Si Qingyan left a letter. On the surface, it was just an ordinary message. If it fell into Si Qinglan's hands, he could report safety.

At this time, he was just leaving temporarily, and he would come back in the future.

Soon, a special warship from the United States stopped at the port of Wancheng.

Stephen was indeed a big shot. A large group of people respectfully invited him to board the ship, almost emptying the church. The Japanese army did not even search his luggage, and sent Stephen away respectfully and enthusiastically.

After a few months, Si Qingyan came to this river again, but this time he took an American ship. In addition to a small number of Chinese who were responsible for giving directions and translating, there were only Americans on the ship.

American soldiers are very different from Japanese soldiers. In addition to the huge difference in height, there are also significant changes in other aspects. The former is a living person, who can talk and laugh, is young and strong, full of vigor and confidence, while the latter is gloomy and numb, tightly stretched with a string, as if he will go crazy in the next moment, and there is a strange determination, willing to die at any time.

Domestic soldiers are also different due to different factions. Part of the original Qing army was the sons of the Eight Banners, who were addicted to eating, drinking, gambling, and smoking. They were all bad, but they were not as good as the guns and cannons. They also consumed too much manpower in resisting the Taiping Rebellion, and have become the dust of history. The current military ranks of the National Army are learning from the United States, and they are selecting the best in all aspects, but the soldiers are generally not confident, uneasy, and lack self-confidence. There are also some who are just waiting to die, so it's better not to mention them. Although the scattered people's uprising army does not have the feeling of high-end elites, their spirit is different. You can see some hope and passion, and they have the most potential.

Now the United States has a good relationship with the National Army and the Japanese Army. In the near future, the Japanese army will be too happy to hit the soft persimmon, expand, and go to war with the United States, and they will be beaten to the point of not knowing east, west, south, north, and north in an instant.

What can a person do... You can slightly improve the speed of scientific and technological development, support education, invest in advance, help the new regime grow as soon as possible, destroy those inhumane laboratories in advance, and prevent large-scale massacres.

Si Qingyan carefully planned what she was going to do and arranged her future schedule clearly.

"I feel like you want to do something big again." Si Qingheng saw Si Qingyan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and instantly had an ominous premonition.

"No." Si Qingyan stared at the water in a trance, denying Si Qingheng's words.

Even after the baptism of war, even though there were factories opened in the east, the river water was still very clean. Although it was not so clear that you could see the bottom, from a distance, the river water was connected to the sky, which was very pleasing to the eye.

First, a black dot appeared in the water, then it became bigger and bigger, and then it floated directly to the surface. A big fish more than ten meters long shook its head and tail in the river, chasing the boat.

The dorsal fin was covered with bone spurs, which looked very sharp.

This fish is so familiar, it seems like I have seen it somewhere before.

Si Qingyan looked into the huge eyes of the fish and remembered the last time he saved Boss Su...

Is this a relative of the last fish? Or did the fish swell up?

Bang——

A big black fish was thrown onto the deck, splashing huge water.

The big black fish was still alive, but a little confused.

Before the people on the deck could exclaim, more fish were thrown up.

Bang, bang, bang——

After a while, a layer of fish was spread on the deck, and the big fish below opened its mouth, seemed very excited, and showed a hideous and shy smile.

"Do you want to shoot?" The accompanying American officer was a little worried that the fish would attack.

"No!" Stephen was very excited.

Sure enough, the East is a magical land!

Oh my God! What is this! Is it the legendary monster!

"I heard that after the founding of the country, it is forbidden to become a spirit. There are only more than ten years left. You must hurry up and transform before the founding of the country." Si Qingyan quietly communicated with the fish, separated a trace of pure soul power, and also passed on the demon clan's skills. Soul power is better than spiritual energy. At least he can produce it by himself. Although it is not very helpful for physical injuries, it can help monsters open their spiritual wisdom as soon as possible.

"Boom boom boom--"

The big fish excitedly made a strange sound and sank into the river.

The people on the boat were confused and only remembered this matter in their hearts. They felt that they could take it out as a strange thing at some point in the future, and then cook the fish thrown by the big fish.

"I found it... This is a large freshwater fish called sturgeon. It also exists in Europe. People often translate its name into European sturgeon. The meat is delicious and delicate... Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty also praised this fish..." Stephen found the portrait of sturgeon in a thick animal illustration book and was very satisfied.

At night, the big fish lurked beside the boat, waiting for Si Qingyan to appear.

When he looked down, the big fish floated up, with debris on its spurs, like part of an ancient sunken ship.

Si Qingyan was a little surprised.

Didn't expect it to be so smart? It seems that it won't be short of money in the future? But the value of antiques in troubled times is limited, unless there is gold and silver.

"I will come back later, don't appear on the river often, you will be caught and eaten."

"Keep these things first, don't damage them."

The big fish seemed to understand, smiled very spiritually, and sank into the water.

Si Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head, and found Si Qingheng standing behind him with a cane.

"Yo." Si Qingheng smiled strangely.

Could it be that Si Qingyan is a big fish spirit?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. He rarely saw Si Qingyan eating fish. It turned out that he was worried about cannibalism?

Si Qingyan, who didn't care about fish bones, smiled back.

I didn't know how to explain it, so I just didn't explain it. Although he was transmitting the sound directly to the big fish, anyone could see that he was communicating with the fish.

"What...you..." Si Qingheng wanted to ask what species you are, is it also a European sturgeon? Or another fish, but Si Qingyan actually slipped away.

He left a disabled injured person alone on the deck and slipped away.

After that, Si Qingheng kept looking at Si Qingyan with strange eyes, and he didn't even eat fish or drink fish soup. I don't know why, when Si Qingheng saw the fish soup, he thought, oh, this is Si Qingyan's bath water.

Then...no appetite.

Si Qingyan didn't know what was in Si Qingheng's mind, nor did she know how to explain it. Si Qingheng should have made things round through his imagination, right?

The warship stopped in Hong Kong for half a month to replenish supplies and take time for Stephen to play. Stephen's brother died in the war. His father was a general, leaving Stephen alone. He told his subordinates to make sure Stephen went home willingly. Stephen wanted to visit Hong Kong, so his father specially arranged to change the route so that he could go... This kind of enthusiasm is somewhat similar to Si Qingheng, both of them indulged.

Stephen didn't react much to his brother's death, because they were half-brothers and had little time to spend together. In Stephen's mind, his brother went to God to listen to teachings, and all the dead will reunite in heaven. He even wanted to develop Si Qingheng into a believer, but Si Qingheng always looked serious, but in his heart, what the hell was this foreigner talking about? The two of them were not on the same channel, but they could still chat happily, which also made Si Qingyan quite admired.

Hong Kong was very beautiful at this time, with old and new interweaving, Chinese and Western coexisting, ancient and advanced, beautiful buildings, trams running on the streets, and neat and elegant pedestrians. Si Qingheng also followed Stephen to the fun places during the days when he got off the ship to rest.

"If Cuicui came to play, she would definitely be very happy."

Even though Si Qingheng had recovered a lot, he still felt sorry when he thought of Yin Siting.

Yin Changan was arranged by Si Qingyan to hide in the air-raid shelter during the war. Because of his mother's death, he survived with hatred and was sent to Wen Jinghong, and he will be well taken care of in the future.

At present, Wancheng is still a high-risk area. Even if Si Qingheng wants to dig up Yin Siting's body and bury it with Master Yin, it is difficult. Moreover, she is buried with "Si Qingheng" now. If someone finds that the couple's graves have been dug up, there will be public resentment.

They all have the courage to die, and they don't care where they are buried.

Si Qingheng thought about it, just because he felt that he owed Yin Siting too much and did not protect her, he wanted to do more for her.

Stephen felt bored after playing for a few days and slept in the mansion every day. He had no interest in the opposite sex and was not used to many delicacies. When the time came, the warship officially sailed to the United States.

Si Qingheng was amazed by the advancement of Hong Kong, and he was still shocked when he was in the United States. He also deeply realized the huge gap between the two countries.

The United States of this era has begun the urbanization process.

Si Qingheng, who has lived in Wancheng for a long time, is like a bumpkin entering the city, and everything he sees is new.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is the truth that has never changed since ancient times. During the Han and Tang Dynasties, all nations came to pay tribute. What could be done thousands of years ago made no sense that it could not be done later.

How can it be done?

Si Qingheng took a deep look at Si Qingyan.

Si Qingyan seemed to know more thoroughly.

"Hmm?" Si Qingyan took out a stack of US dollars and stuffed it into Si Qingheng's pocket.

“Buy what you like when you see one.”

Si Qingheng looked around for a long time and finally brought back two ice creams.

"Our country will also have it in the future." Si Qingheng said in a low voice.

"There will be, there will be." Si Qingyan said firmly.

"When can we three brothers get together again?" Si Qingheng asked.

"Maybe we can get together again soon, maybe it will take a long time. No matter where we are, we are doing the same thing." Si Qingyan has planned to return to China in the near future.

After he hands Si Qingheng to Boss Su, he can get on the boat back to the mainland again. As for Si Qingheng who stays in the United States... he can go to military school with Stephen. Anyway, Si Qingheng is young, so even if he uses a fake identity, outsiders won't be able to tell.
