After leaving Tianranju, it didn't take long for Li Xiake to arrive in the British consulate. The guard guard was impressed by him and did not ask much, so he opened the door and let him walk in.

As soon as he entered the consulate, he heard a sing of scriptures coming from inside. Li Xiake followed the song and saw a group of children standing in front of a cross in the lobby singing softly, and several foreigners were holding musical instruments to accompany them.

6 Haodong and Sun Yat-sen also stood beside the choir and watched. The children's voices were pure and the singing was full and gentle, but they were very pleasant.

Li Xiake looked at the statue of a foreign god tied to a cross in front of the hall, sighed, and walked to 6 Haodong: "What? Brother Haodong believes in this too?"

6 Haodong was holding a pocket watch to watch the time. Hearing this, he looked up with a surprise look on his face and said softly: "Brother Li, are you here?"

He looked around and said to Li Xiake: "Come on, let's talk to you!"

Li Xiake followed him to a corner of the hall, and Sun Wen followed him to see this.

"I heard that someone broke into Chaotianguan yesterday and killed several important figures in the White Lotus Sect, and even the leader killed them. Brother Li, is that person you?"

6 Haodong looked at Li Xiake with a look of praise: "Your name is Li Xiake, what you do is much more powerful than the heroes of ancient times!"

Li Xiake looked at Sun Wen next to him and smiled and said, "I just went to Chaotian Temple last night. You guys knew this morning? I didn't expect that there were also your people in Chaotian Temple. Hehe, admire, admire!"

Sun Wen was stared at Li Xiake's eyes and felt uncomfortable all over. He smiled dryly: "It just happened to be heard, Brother Li, don't think too much."

Li Xiake laughed a few times, no longer obsessed with this matter, turned to look at the child who was singing the poem, and asked 6 Haodong: "Brother Haodong, do you believe this too?"

6 Haodong shook his head and said, "Yixianxin, as for me..."

He paused slightly and said, "I used to have a mythical character in my heart, but I only realized when I grew up. No matter what myth, it was just a bunch of lies. Hehe, since then, I have not believed in God. If there are really gods in this world, then why are there so many disasters in China? The emperor enslaved the people, and the gods enslaved all living beings, hehe..."

Sun Wen next to him frowned and said, "Brother Haodong, you are a little extreme!"

6 Haodong glanced at Sun Wen and said, "Yixian, yesterday a missionary was very confused. He told me that he came to China to spread the gospel. Why do Chinese people still shout and kill him? I told him that if he could get the soldiers in their country to put away foreign guns and cannons, the Chinese people would naturally not hate them so much. The Chinese people have their own religious beliefs, so why should they preach with interests and big sticks?"

6 Haodong said this and said softly: "The enemy not only enslaves our patriots, but also disintegrates our culture and beliefs. This is the real destruction of the country and the seeds!"

Li Xiake looked at 6 Haodong with a smile: "Brother Haodong, I'm afraid Brother Sun Wen doesn't like to listen to what you said!"

Sun Yat-sen next to him smiled awkwardly, wisely not accepting this topic.

Li Xiake looked at the children who sang poems with the teacher and sighed: "Brother Haodong, why are there so many students in the consulate?"

6 Haodong said: "These are all students from the Tongwenguan. The White Lotus Sect has been making a big fuss recently. I am a little worried about them. After you left yesterday, I asked some people from the consulate to bring these children here. Putting aside the position, at least it is relatively safer here."

Li Xiake nodded: "Now the leader of the White Lotus Sect has been killed by me. The slogan of "driven pigs and killing sheep" has been eliminated. There should be no problem with the Tongwenguan. Children can go to school, but please do not forcefully carry out religious propaganda for them. The children of our country learn culture, not religious knowledge. When they grow up and have their own mature worldview and outlook on life, let them choose their own beliefs. Don't interfere too much now!"

6 Haodong thought to himself: "Yes, we are here to learn knowledge in Tongwenguan. Let the children choose their own religion when they grow up."

At this time, a noise came from outside the consulate. Li Xiake looked out through the window and saw a group of Qing soldiers standing outside the gate. The leader was Nalan Yuanshu, who was injured by him yesterday.

This man is tough and has suffered such severe injuries. Now he can still insist on leading troops. He is considered a man.

"We suspect that you are hiding the rioters here, and hope you can let us in and search, or you hand them over to yourself!"

After taking a photo of several foreign guards blocking the road next to him, Nalan Yuanshu led the soldiers to strode to the consulate hall and said to the British counselor who was coming: "Please cooperate with our search!"

The British counselor with a bearded face stood on the stairs and looked down at Nalan Yuanshu, his shoulders trembled, and his hands spread out: "Sorry, sir, this is the consulate of our British Empire. You have no right to search here!"

Nalan Yuanshu stared at the counselor's light blue eyes: "This is our Chinese territory, why can't we search?"

The counselor smiled and said, "If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to your government to complain. Please don't be angry with us. Sir, venting your anger against innocent people is a very uneducated manifestation!"

While he was talking, a group of foreign soldiers in the hall appeared from all corners, raised their rifles, and pointed them at Nalan Yuanshu and others. Seeing this, more than a dozen soldiers around Nalan Yuanshu also raised their muskets and aimed at each other with these foreigners.

Nalan Yuanshu looked serious.

The British counselor smiled.

As the two looked at each other, the hall slowly became quiet.

After looking at each other for a while, Nalan Yuanshu snorted coldly and waved to his subordinates and others: "Let's go! Since we can't search, then surround the consulate outside! Don't miss a suspicious person! Mr. Counselor, you'd better let those rebels never come out for the rest of their lives. One comes out and we'll catch one!"

Seeing Nalan Yuanshu leading the soldiers away angrily, the British counselor breathed a sigh of relief. When he was facing Nalan Yuanshu just now, he was extremely nervous. After all, no matter how strong the British were, the pressure was extraordinary when facing the pressure from local Chinese officials.

"Sir 6 and Mr. Sun, you'd better find a way to leave here. We can't protect you for long. The new admiral of your country is very strong and very different from the previous officials."

The British counselor looked at Sun Yat-sen and 6 Haodong: "This place can only be used as a temporary shelter, you can't stay here forever, right?"

When Nalan Yuanshu brought people over, Sun Wen and 6 Haodong looked very bad. Now after hearing the counselor's words, the two looked even more bitter. If the Qing soldiers outside really besieged the consulate for a long time, they would delay a lot of things.

"Haodong, I have bought a ticket to Hong Kong tomorrow morning, board the boat from Shamian Pier, and go directly to Tangjiawan."

Sun Wen said to 6 Haodong with a bitter look: "But in this situation today, how can we arrive at the port on time?"

6 Haodong looked out the window and said softly: "Nalan Yuanshu will not let us go. If they really surround the consulate, it will be difficult for us to escape unless..."

He looked up at Li Xiake: "Brother Li, can you escort us both out of here?"
