Just before Master Qingfeng and his apprentice left the Foundling Hall, in a foreign settlement not far away, Lord Sergey suddenly summoned his manservant.
After a gentle knock on the door, Sergey's answer came immediately from the large room on the second floor.
The valet then carefully opened the door.
Lord Sergei was not sleeping.
He was leaning on the bench.
When he saw the manservant coming, he immediately gave orders.
"Send this letter to Captain Luke's house quickly."
The name mentioned by the master immediately came to mind of the male servant.
"My Lord, is this Captain Luke of the Foreign Gun Team?"
"Yes, it's him," Sergey said calmly.
"Oh, he is a great hero.
I heard that when he was in Africa, he and his friends captured thousands of black people and almost became chiefs.
Now the warriors have come to the Qing Dynasty and they are protecting us all the time.
The interests of the imperial expatriates," the manservant rambled on about the rumors he had heard.
"Well, what you said is very true.
The interests of our imperial expatriates must be protected.
Captain Luke and I are old friends.
Together, we have created many miracles in the empire," Sergey couldn't help but sigh.
"My lord, please invite Captain Luke to come.
Could it be that the Qing people are causing trouble again?"
the footman asked cautiously and softly.
"The people of the Qing Dynasty are constantly fighting among themselves, and it is not terrible to cause trouble.
Have you heard of the Boxer Rebellion?"
Sergey asked with a proud look on his face.
"Are they those stupid guys?"
the manservant blurted out.
Lord Sergei laughed immediately.
"Yes, those stupid guys were betrayed by their court."
"Sir, the Qing people don't make trouble, so why?"
Before the manservant finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sergey.
"You'll understand later" The manservant was very knowledgeable and didn't ask any more questions.
He collected the letter and left the Huanglou.
A carriage that had been prepared long ago was parked downstairs, waiting for him to get on.
There was a crisp crack of the whip, and he galloped away.
Moreover, Qingfeng's master and apprentice arrived at the right time, just in time to catch up with the prefect He and his men to negotiate with the foreign gun team in front of the government office.
The leader was none other than Captain Luke.
"Captain Luke, why did you bring someone here late at night?"
Lord He asked politely.
Captain Luke was burly, as strong as an ox, and his face was covered with hair.
Anyone who has never seen it will be scared at first sight.
"Oh, it turns out it's Mr.
He.
I suddenly brought people here to search."
Although Captain Luke's words were not smooth, he spoke with arrogance.
"Search Captain Luke, did you hear me correctly?

This is the territory of our Qing Dynasty."
Mr.
He deliberately raised his voice with a look of displeasure.
Captain Luke did not reply immediately, but turned around and spoke slowly in foreign language to the men behind him, followed by his men laughing unbridled.
"Sir, what does Luke want to do?"
The master hurriedly asked the prefect for advice.
"Who knows what bird language he is talking about?"
Mr.
He said angrily.
Luke finally turned around, looked at Mr.
He on the steps of the government office with contempt, curled his lips and shouted.
"Master He, do you know what my friends are laughing at?"
"What they are laughing at has nothing to do with me," Master He replied.
"I told them your words" Master He's face suddenly turned red, and his impatience showed anger.
"How can it be that I have no intention of joking with you?
Please explain your purpose of coming quickly."
Luke laughed after hearing this.
"Lord He, I am glad that I have received a tip that someone in Changshi City is plotting something evil.
In order to protect the citizens of the British Empire, I want to conduct a search."
"Sir, these foreign devils are really bullying people, why don't you show them some color?"
The master couldn't see it, and reminded him quietly beside the prefect.
"It's not difficult to give them some color, but when the time comes, the people in the court will have the black gauze hat on my head, and it will be difficult to keep the man flexible and flexible.
We will just treat the foreign devils as foreign farts."
Mr.
He sighed and calmly Di replied, taking over Luke's words again.
"Captain Luke, there is someone in the city who is up to no good.
How come I never knew about it?"
"Master He, maybe you still remember the Boxer Rebellion?"
Luke asked arrogantly.
"Of course I, Captain Luke, remember that the Boxers were rebellious officials and traitors, and the imperial court had already ordered them to be exterminated," Lord He said calmly.
"They had evil intentions back then.
Didn't your court know about it?"
Captain Luke asked in an upbeat tone.
"Captain Luke wants to read the almanac again.
I'm still saying the same thing.
If you have anything to say, tell me quickly."
Master He felt disgusted with Captain Luke in front of him.
"Then let's open the skylight and tell the truth that there is a secret society in the city.
I suspect that they are going to be detrimental to our expatriates," Luke said seriously.
"Sir, just send him away casually.
Even if there is a secret association, it's not his turn to make noises here."
The master next to him gave another idea.
Master He hummed.
"Captain Luke, there is evidence for everything.
Give me a face and take people back first.

If there is really a secret association that harms the citizens of your country, I will not tolerate it after I find out."
After hearing this, Luke said with a straight face.
"I have already found out, no need to bother Mr.
He" As soon as he finished speaking, Luke shouted another short and powerful sentence in foreign language, and all his men shouldered their rifles uniformly.
"Wait a minute, I will send someone to go with you."
Mr.
He immediately stopped and put forward a compromise suggestion.
"Master He is really a smart man, I will give you this face."
Luke smiled and finally agreed.
Master He finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered his master to make arrangements.
So, two groups of people, Guan and foreign, drove into the streets and alleys of Changshi City.
Not a moment later, the people in the city who had already turned off their lights and were sleeping, heard the noisy footsteps, and turned on their dim oil lamps, and the whole city gradually woke up early.
Master and apprentice Qingfeng were invisible and watched the excitement.
They followed the two teams and returned to the houses where the magic talismans were posted in front of their doors.
"Master, what kind of medicine are these foreign devils selling in their gourds?"
Xin Yun said worriedly.
"They came prepared, but why did they choose these people who have pasted the magic talismans?"
Qingfeng was puzzled.
"Master, it's just a coincidence.
After all, there are many people in the city who post talismans.
Besides, the foreign devils don't know Taoism, so they don't care what is posted on the door," Xin Yun said calmly.
Qingfeng then nodded and signaled Xin Yun to continue to follow.
He wanted to see what these foreigners wanted to do.
