"Father Andrew, these are relatives of our family in Beijing. They heard that Father Andrew has excellent medical skills, so they came here to seek medical treatment. As long as Father Andrew can cure the patient's illness, our relatives will definitely offer the most devout faith to the Lord!"

Xu Liang said humbly to an old priest with blond hair and blue eyes in a white sacrificial robe.

Father Andrew nodded with Jia Qiang and Li Jing first, and then said to Xu Liang: "My merciful Lord, I will not abandon any child who believes in Him."

Then, looking at Li Fu who was being carried in on a stretcher, he lifted the thin quilt, frowned after smelling the stench, and then opened his clothes...

It didn't take long before Andrew shook his head and said, "It's too late..."

Jia Qiang frowned slightly when she heard the words, while Li Jing's complexion was gloomy, and the corners of her eyes gradually became moist.

However, Jia Qiang was not surprised. Li Fu obviously failed to treat the injury in time after being injured while running darts outside. The wound was infected and inflamed, and the treatment has not healed for a long time.

It is really rare that Chinese medicine can continue his life.

Before the invention of penicillin, western medicine was actually a little brother when it came to treating trauma.

Jia Qiang held Li Jing's hand, before consoling her, Li Jing lowered her head and smiled, "It's expected, it's nothing serious. Lord, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the south of the Yangtze River with you, my father is afraid I can't hold on for too long, I can't let him die in a foreign land." In his tone, it was hard to hide the pain of grief.

Jia Qiang understood, and he said softly, "How about I go with you? Please send the doctor to the south, it doesn't make much difference whether I go to Yangzhou or not."

Li Jing shook her head and said: "No, didn't you say that the troubles in Beijing are serious right now, and you are a person in the whirlpool. If you don't avoid it, you may be in great trouble. Sir, I didn't mean to forgive you, it's just father He has been lying in bed for three years. He was a big man in the past, but now he is skinny and skinny, like a handful of dry wood. Rather than suffer like this, he is better off. I have prepared in my heart, and nothing will happen."

Jia Qiang is not a hypocritical person. She nodded and was about to say something when she heard a loud noise from outside:

"boom!!"

His complexion changed suddenly, and Li Jing suddenly turned around and looked outside.

Father Andrew and Xu Liang also changed their faces. Xu Liang's face was pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "It's broken, disaster is coming, disaster is coming!"

Father Andrew was much calmer, but when he saw five or six people pouring out from the apse of the church, each with firearms in their hands, he immediately darkened his face and shouted, "Are you crazy?"

Jia Qiang was even more shocked than these people. He knew that there were firearms in this world, because among the [-]th regiment battalion stationed in the capital, there were three battalions called Shenji Battalion.

However, Dayan's strength in banning folk firearms is more than a hundred times stronger than Jia Qiang's previous life.

In the past dynasties, it is a felony to hide bows and crossbows and armor, and it is a heinous crime to hide firearms.

Even Xungui's mansion is no exception, let alone the site of a Western Taoist monk?

A group of people broke out, each dressed in breeches and boots, and the leader was a blue-eyed girl with platinum curly hair and freckles.

She spoke Chinese with a strange accent, and said loudly: "Father, our life and death are threatened now. If we don't resist, we won't even have a way to survive. Priest, please come up to the tower with us!" While speaking, look more He glanced at Jia Qiang and Li Jing.

Andrew shook his head and said, "Although we believed in the wrong person in this matter, your original intentions have violated the teachings of the Lord. Now that the Lord of Suffering has come to your door, we can only make a pious atonement. Moreover, once the firearms are used, we are far away from you." Jinmen is not open. Firearms are strictly prohibited in the country of Yan, Vivian, please put away your firearms."

Hearing the more and more terrifying knocking on the door outside the gate, and the roaring and roaring of countless people, all the characters in the Hall of Mercy became paler and paler.

Not to mention those ghosts, but Jia Qiang, Li Jing, and the four gang members of the Iron Head, Zhuzi and Jinsha Gang who came in from the outside all looked very solemn.

Jia Qiang asked Xu Liang, "Does the Renci Hall have a real tunnel?"

Xu Liang didn't know, he shook his head and looked at Father Andrew.

The old priest looked at Jia Qiang, shook his head with a sigh, and said, "The Lord only has a bright road, and he is willing to be repented by the world, but he will not walk underground."

Jia Qiang frowned, looked outside worriedly, turned her head, saw the Western girl's face was strange, and her expression moved, and said: "If the door is broken, the people under the rage will absolutely be irrational, and no one can escape. However, if there is no other way out, we can only die. Besides, most of us will end up with the children on the mass grave, haven’t you heard the barking of vicious dogs?”

As soon as these words came out, Vivian's already fair face did not even have the slightest trace of blood, and even the freckles on her face turned white...

She tremblingly said: "In the kitchen corner of the west castle, there is a stone that can be taken out, and you can go out... However, there is someone else's yard there, with many flowers and fruit trees. I used to..."

Jia Qiang couldn't hear the words, and interrupted: "Take us there immediately, or it will be too late."

Vivian nodded, but looked at Andrew again, and said, "Father Andrew, come with us!"

But Father Andrew shook his head and said, "So many poor children died because of our mistakes... Someone must be responsible for this. The courage God gave us is not for us to escape responsibility and sin..."

Vivian still wanted to ask, Andrew waved his hand, and said to Jia Qiang: "Xu Liang said, you are nobles in Beijing, and you also believe in the glory of the Lord. Then, for the sake of the Lord, can you help me guide them?" Out of town?"

Jia Qiang looked at Andrew and said sincerely: "Father, I admire your responsibility and courage. At this time, you are still willing to see a doctor for my relatives. I also respect this generosity. I want to believe that the death of those babies and You have nothing to do with me. I'll take you out of town with me if you want. But can you tell me that other people are innocent too? I believe you and I can take them out of town with you if you say they are all innocent. But if not, sorry."

After hearing this, Father Andrew looked at Jia Qiang, nodded slowly and said, "You are a sincere person, may the Lord bless you. Then, please take Vivienne away, she is innocent."

Jia Qiang nodded, and was about to speak when she heard a "boom" from outside, and countless angry people rushed in.

"Clap!"

Just as Father Andrew went up to meet him, he wanted to explain, but he didn't expect the sound of gunfire behind him.

Chapter 98 Escape

One street away from the Mercy Hall, the driver of the Rong Mansion stood beside the carriage with two third-class nuns, looking at the crowds of people not far away, all of them looked shocked.

The pale-faced Daiyu and Zijuan held Xiangling who was struggling to get out of the carriage to find Jia Qiang together in the carriage.

Zicuckoo struggled to press it, seeing sweat on her head and scolded angrily: "You go in now, don't you mean that the meat bun beats the dog and never returns? If something happens, you have to wait for the second master Xiaoqiang to come out." I will save you again!"

Xiangling's face was pale, she was dumb and couldn't speak, she just pouted and shed tears, she still wanted to get out of the car and look for Jia Qiang.

The current girls are very different from the girls in Jia Qiang's previous life. They would break up after a little quarrel when they were in a relationship.

But the girls nowadays are not so kind to themselves. After identifying a person, they will really engrave his surname on the bones. Unless the man dies early, they will stick to each other for the rest of their lives. Shame.

Xiang Ling is a good girl, if she followed the fate of her previous life, she really became Xue Pan's roommate, and after being tortured and abused like that, she still never left Xue Pan's family until she died of withered blood.

Now, after suffering for so long, and finally met Jia Qiang who is considerate and caring, how can he bear to see him fall into danger and remain indifferent?

Zijuan couldn't persuade her, Daiyu held Xiangling's hand, said softly with red eyes: "Xiangling, I don't know what's going on with Brother Qiang inside now, don't you think he's not a smart person?"

Xiangling shook her head vigorously, but couldn't speak, she just cried with anxiety.

Those crazy people really frightened her.

She couldn't imagine how Jia Qiang would be hurt under such an impact...

Daiyu herself was actually holding on, but she still persuaded: "Since he is not stupid, he will find a way to get out of trouble when he encounters such a situation. What if he comes out later and you fall in, Wouldn't it be a burden for him to go back to rescue you? Besides, when we arrived, he reminded us that if we saw something unexpected happen, let us go back to the boat early. It can be seen that he had anticipated that something would happen in advance, and in his heart There must be success. You can't be reckless for a while and drag him down."

Xiangling stopped struggling when she heard the words, and asked with tears streaming down her face, "Girl, can our master really come out?"

Daiyu smiled and nodded...

Zijuan couldn't help but asked curiously: "Xiangling, you have only been with Second Master Xiaoqiang for a few days, how can you be so loyal?"
