Chapter 68: The Duel


The visit was quite successful.

Chen Zikun got his wish and became the apprentice of the Chinese master Liang Qichao.

However, the apprenticeship ceremony had to be held on an auspicious day, and some celebrities from the cultural world would be invited to watch the ceremony.

After Chen Zikun left, Liang Sicheng said puzzledly: "Father, you have never recruited students in the past, so why did you make an exception this time?"

Liang Qichao said: "Chen Zikun is no better than others.

He is a person who wants to join the military and political circles and make a career.

My father is building momentum for him in the hope of helping him."

Liang Sicheng said: "Father really thinks highly of him.

No one among your students has ever had this honor.

Chen Zikun is the only one."

Liang Qichao smiled indifferently and came to a secluded room in the back house.

There were six memorial tablets in the room.

He took a handkerchief and wiped it carefully, then lit a stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner in front of one of the memorial tablets, staring silently.

After a long time, he finally said: "Fusheng, I haven't seen you for a long time."

There is still half a month left before the apprenticeship ceremony.

Chen Zikun still goes to work at the Army Department in Tieshihutong every day and manages his tea stove room conscientiously.

However, he cannot participate in the activities of the Crescent Club because his spare time is occupied by Yao Yilei. .

When Yao Yilei appeared again at Ziguang Automobile Factory, she really shocked Baoqing Xing'er and the others.

This young lady was destined to be the boss of the automobile factory, but this time Miss Yao was not as arrogant and domineering as last time.

It's true to say that she has a ladylike demeanor in her every move.

Yao Yilei helped Chen Zikun find a house.

The address was on West Chang'an Street.

This area inside Xuanwumen was a site with blue flags during the Qing Dynasty.

There were many old houses belonging to Beile Beizi, General Zhenguo, and General Fuguo.

Now that the Republic of China has been established for more than ten years, these The family fortune of the Eight Banner disciples was almost in ruins.

Old houses all over Beijing were put up for sale.

The house she liked was not too big, with a three-entry courtyard and a three-bay gate.

It was more grand than Guangliang gate or Jinzhu gate.

More, the asking price is only 10,000 yuan.

Ten thousand yuan is not a small sum, but Yao Yilei paid the 30% deposit without blinking an eye, and left the remaining money to Chen Zikun.

When Chen Zikun heard that he was suddenly saddled with a debt of 7,000 yuan, his eyes widened with shock.

He was now just a lieutenant in the Army Department, and received a monthly salary of 50 yuan.

Although the car factory had some income, After all, it's just a small business, and if you want to come up with 7,000 yuan, you have to sell the car.

Yao Yilei didn't take this seriously at all.

She told Chen Zikun that this was the residence of Lord Baylor in the former Qing Dynasty.

The construction craftsmanship and materials used were excellent, and the location was also excellent.

It was neither far away from the bustling city nor close to it.

On the street, you close the door and isolate yourself from the world.

When you walk out, you can reach in all directions.

Now the housing and land prices in Beijing are relatively low.

You can buy it for 10,000 yuan.

In the future, housing prices will rise.

The tide will definitely lift all boats.

In ten or twenty years, it will be a small amount to double.

That being said, you can never lose money.

After the house was settled, Yao Yilei also had a showdown with her family.

She told Yao Qizhen bluntly that she would never marry Nishizono Oio, but would marry Chen Zikun as agreed four years ago.

Yao Qizhen shook his hands angrily: "Don't you listen to your parents' orders to be a matchmaker?

What kind of ecstasy did the boy named Chen give you?"

Mrs.

Yao also persuaded: "Leilei, listen to mommy.

Poor and lowly couples are in trouble.

Nishizono Oio is a top student at Imperial University.

Not only is he rich, but he is also deeply devoted to you.

You will not suffer if you follow him.

Chen Zikun Yijie He's just a martial artist, how can he compare with others."

Yao Yilei sneered: "It's true that the Xiyuan family is rich, but that's the money of his uncle Xiyuan Guizan, and it's not his.

Don't underestimate Chen Zikun.

He is a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point.

Didn't you say that at the beginning?

Did he agree to our marriage because of his academic achievements?

Why did he regret it now that he disliked his low status?

When he saved your daughter's life and let you go, why didn't he dislike him?

" The Yao family were speechless after what they said.

It is true that Chen Zikun was kind to the Yao family.

If he hadn't come to the rescue, Yao Yilei might have been killed by the kidnappers.

If he hadn't deliberately betrayed Yao Qizhen, he would have been imprisoned.

"Whether you agree or disagree, you can't change my decision."

Yao Yilei carried her luggage and proudly left the Yao Mansion.

The driver Ah Fu was already waiting at the door.

Suddenly, Xiyuan Ouxiong walked in from outside the gate.

He couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Yao Yilei looking like he was traveling far away.

Yao Yilei didn't even look at him.

She got into the car and said, "Let's go."

The car drove out of the yard, Xiyuan Oixiong was still confused in the exhaust gas, and Yao Qizhen said with great sadness: "Oixiong, come in, I have something to say to you."

The next day, a brief revelation appeared in the Beijing News.

Japanese businessman Nishizono Oo invited a Chinese named Chen Zikun to a duel.

Duels, especially duels over women, have always been the most popular thing for men, women, and children at all times and in all countries.

From officials to nobles to traders and servants, everyone talks about it.

At the Rokukoku Hotel, Oio Nishizono sat at the table with a solemn expression, wiping a Japanese-made Southern-style pistol.

Six rounds of eight-millimeter pistol bullets were placed side by side on the table.

They were the ammunition he planned to use to kill his love rival.

Oio Nishizono is a PhD student in the Department of Finance at Tokyo Imperial University.

He is a bit rigid and dull.

He and Yao Yilei met at a party in Tokyo's upper class society.

He was not good at words and fell in love with this lively and lovely Chinese girl at first sight. , and despite the dissuasion of relatives and friends, he launched a pursuit with his own personal characteristics.

The experience during this period was hilarious and once became a joke among Tokyo's upper class.

The hard work paid off.

After unremitting efforts, Nishizono Oio finally gained the recognition of Yao Qizhen and his wife.

Yao Yilei herself did not dislike him.

The marriage was just settled.

Nishizono Oio even gave up his life for this reason.

When I got the opportunity to teach at the Imperial University, I followed my fiancée and her family to distant China.

He always thought that happiness in this life was here, but yesterday's conversation at Yao Mansion seriously hurt him like a bolt from the blue.

This old-fashioned doctor decided to defend his happiness with his life, even though he was highly myopic.

He was powerless, but he still issued an invitation for a duel.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the waiter delivered a large envelope.

Nishizono Oio took the envelope and opened it.

Inside was a thick stack of newspapers, marked with red pen.

Oio Nishizono was not a master of China, but he had no problem reading Chinese characters.

He spread out the newspapers and read them one by one.

The more he read, the colder his heart grew.

What was published in the newspapers was the case of Yao Yilei being kidnapped and later rescued unscathed, followed by the sexy news about Miss Yao and the rickshaw driver.

Through the gossipy news in these yellowed newspapers, Nishizono Oo saw What you see is romantic and great love.

Compared with it, your so-called love is full of selfishness and wretchedness.

Later, there were some related reports about Chen Zikun's repeated extraordinary achievements in the Zhijiang-Anhui War and his study abroad.

Nishizono Oio no longer had the heart to read them.

The fighting spirit he had filled with him vanished in an instant.

The duel took place near Taoranting.

It was a quiet and bright place.

It was the old place where Chen Zikun and Yu Zhankui competed.

Since it was kept secret in advance, there were not many people present.

There were only friends of both sides of the duel and a news reporter.

Chen Zikun arrived at the duel location early.

He was used to licking blood from his knife, so he didn't take it seriously.

He didn't make any preparations in advance.

His duel assistant was Wang Geng, and he brought a follower Wang.

Dongliang and a surgeon, of course, the doctor is prepared for the opponent.

Yao Yilei didn't come, and it would be difficult for her to face this kind of situation.

If she didn't show up, it might be good news for both sides of the duel.

The news reporter is an old acquaintance of Chen Zikun, Beijing News reporter Ruan Mingchuan.

This guy has always been extremely accurate in catching social hot spots and is extremely well-informed.

After he met Chen Zikun, his first words were: "Mr.

Chen, you still owe me a suit jacket."

Chen Zikun laughed loudly: "If I survive the disaster today, I will return this Manhattan custom-made suit to you."

Ruan Mingchuan winked and said with a smile: "You can rest assured that Nishizono Ooxiong's defeat today is certain."

Chen Zikun was a little puzzled as to why Reporter Ruan was so sure that he would win, but he didn't have time to think about it because Nishizono Oio had already arrived.

This love rival couldn't help but feel ashamed when he stood in front of Chen Zikun.

Chen Zikun was 1.85 meters tall, while he was only over 1.6 meters tall, and his figure was a bit fat.

It only lost points in terms of image, and he was much weaker in terms of momentum.

Chen Zikun was full of energy and confident of victory.

Xiyuan Sang's face was ashen and his movements were stiff and slow.

Everyone could see that he would definitely lose this battle.

Nishizono Oo also brought an assistant, a young Japanese.

When both parties arrived, Wang Geng read out the precautions for the duel in public, and the duel began.

Chen Zikun's dueling weapon is a silver colored gun.

This is a side gun given to him by Zhang Xueliang.

So far, it has only been fired on the shooting range, and has never seen any blood.

The two sides stood twenty steps apart.

Chen Zikun was smoking calmly and looked very relaxed, while Nishizono Oo's hand holding the gun was already sweaty, and the sweat beads on his forehead kept rolling down.

They were shot face to face.

A great challenge for any sane person.

Wang Geng raised a white handkerchief and waved it down suddenly, and the duel began.

Chen Zikun was calm and made a gesture in a gentlemanly manner, indicating to the other party to shoot first.

Nishizono Ouo gritted his teeth and raised the southern pistol tremblingly.

The steaming fog on his forehead made his myopia glasses extremely blurry.

Sweat seeped into his eyes, which was extremely spicy.

He blinked hard and buttoned the button at the blurry shadow in the distance.

The trigger was pulled.

There was a "bang" gunshot, and Xiyuan shot first
