Chapter 6 Chapter 1 (4)

Those young people who just arrived didn't seem to have the concept of queuing. After setting up their bicycles, they flocked to the ticket gate, and the line suddenly became chaotic.The people who lined up all night didn't buy into these arrogant latecomers. They posted one by one, tenaciously maintaining the complete line, trying to squeeze these latecomers out.People were pushing and shoving, crowding, the team was like a writhing giant dragon, the noise and cursing were intertwined and merged into a huge sound wave, finally a conflict broke out in the crowd, and the two groups of youths fought A bloody brawl broke out, and the crowd suddenly became chaotic. During the melee, one or two hands holding a spring lock could be seen looming in the crowd from time to time, and then there was the muffled sound of being hit.

Zhong Yuemin stood beside him, smoking a cigarette and watching coldly, when he suddenly found the famous Li Yuanchao in the crowd. Li Yuanchao pinched the brake of the bicycle, supported himself with one leg, and leaned on the beam of the bicycle with the other leg, as if he was just passing by here, and had no intention of getting off the bicycle at all.Surrounded by a dozen or so young people with staring eyebrows, he seemed to be surrounded by stars.Li Yuanchao is tall, burly, with a handsome Chinese character face. He is wearing an ordinary blue uniform, which looks very unique in the yellow-green military uniform. He is a leader in the "veteran" Li Yuanchao is a famous character, and the three characters of Li Yuanchao are a signboard. It is not worthwhile to wear generals and school clothes to flaunt around like those brats.

Li Yuanchao and Zhong Yuemin belonged to the same school, and he was two grades ahead of Zhong Yuemin. When the Red Guards organization was established in 1966, Zhong Yuemin had just finished the first year of middle school, and Li Yuanchao had already finished the third year of middle school.In Li Yuanchao's capacity, Zhong Yuemin, who was a junior, couldn't be bothered, and Zhong Yuemin didn't want to curry favor with him. When they were working together in the Red Guard Haidian picket team, the two were just nodding acquaintances.The two of them really became acquainted when they stormed the compound of the Ministry of Public Security.

At the end of 1966, the old Red Guards gathered in the Beizhan Theater and established the "Capital Red Guards Joint Action Committee" ", Li Yuanchao was elected as one of the leaders without hesitation at the meeting. Many years later, when Zhong Yuemin talked about this past event with some of the parties, everyone thought it was ridiculous, because the establishment of "linkage" was completely a joke. There was neither a strict organizational system nor a unified program of action. The children of the cadres were angry with the Central Cultural Revolution Group at that time, because the Central Cultural Revolution Group had targeted the veteran cadres in the party, that is, their parents, which directly violated their interests. Yes, why did the revolution come to my own house this time?Everyone quarreled and scolded at the meeting, and after the meeting, no one took it seriously, but outsiders didn't understand the situation, and spread the "linkage" organization, which was very legendary .There are even rumors that the internal hierarchy of the "Linkage" organization is strict, and even the armbands are distributed according to the grades of parents, which are made of fabrics such as woolen, satin, silk, and cloth.

Zhong Yuemin said, I figured it out. Many famous epics came out in this way. They first appeared in the mouth of a guy who drank too much wine. Artistic processing, handed down, passed down from generation to generation, so it becomes an epic. Zhong Yuemin remembered that after the inauguration meeting of "Linkage", everyone heard that the Ministry of Public Security had arrested some of their buddies, so everyone coaxed and said that they would go to the Ministry of Public Security to ask for someone. If the ministry dares not to let people go, it will be smashed. Rebellion is justified.The first time when Li Yuanchao went to rush to the Ministry of Public Security, he gathered one or two hundred people. At first, everyone still negotiated with the cadres in charge of the Ministry of Public Security in a decent manner, but then they got a little annoyed. What are you talking about with this small cadre?It would be all right to simply rush in and snatch people out, so the brothers started rushing into the gate, thus conflicting with the guarding soldiers.They just joined hands to form a human wall to stop these hairy kids from messing around.The teenagers rushed a few times, as if the waves hit the rocks, to no avail.Li Yuanchao, who is usually very thoughtful, has gone out of his way at this time. At this time, the bad water in Zhong Yuemin's stomach began to flow out. He led a group of junior high school teenagers to burp the soldiers' itches. The soldiers were not affected by the itching. During the training, they were so belched that they laughed, and a gap appeared in the human wall. Zhong Yuemin did not immediately lead the people into the gap, but organized the teenagers to pull the soldiers out of the human wall one by one, so that the human wall formed by the soldiers appeared A huge gap was opened, and Li Yuanchao led his men into the Ministry of Public Security smoothly.

Of course, in hindsight, the "linkage" launched six attacks on the Ministry of Public Security back then. It may not have been a planned and organized operation. He admits that he took part in the attack on the Ministry of Public Security back then when he was completely free. He had no political appeals, but it was just his restless nature. As a direct result of this daring action, "Linkage" was classified as a counter-revolutionary organization by the Central Cultural Revolution Group, and was besieged by tens of thousands of rebel groups in Beijing, and "Linkage" quickly collapsed.

However, Li Yuanchao noticed Zhong Yuemin's adaptability and organizational ability through this incident. From then on, he no longer underestimated Zhong Yuemin, and believed that this guy was a character, and the relationship between the two became closer. Li Yuanchao looked around with a smile, and people in the crowd continued to greet him obsequiously, and he smiled and nodded. He saw Zhong Yuemin, and the two looked at each other for a moment.Zhong Yuemin smiled, put up two fingers to touch the brim of the hat, and flung it out smartly, giving an American military salute. Li Yuanchao returned the gift with a smile.

Zhong Yuemin said to Li Kuyong: "Kuiyong, that person is Li Yuanchao, what do you think?" Li Kuiyong stared at Li Yuanchao, and said disapprovingly: "I don't think so, why? He is the leader of you veterans? Is there some linkage?" "We don't have a leader in this group, but there are really not many people who dare to provoke Li Yuanchao. He was one of the main organizers of the Liuchong Public Security Department back then." At this time, Zhang Haiyang and his gang who had fought with Zhong Yuemin also appeared in front of the Tianqiao Theater.Zhong Yuemin became excited when he saw it. He hung the military satchel around his neck, led Yuan Jun and others out of the crowd, and walked towards Zhang Haiyang. He asked with a smile on his face, "Dude, do you still know each other?"

Zhang Haiyang and the others were about to walk up the steps, when they saw Zhong Yuemin and the others surrounding him, they reacted immediately, he sneered and said, "I know you even after you've been skinned, what do you want?" Zhong Yuemin showed a kitchen knife in his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, just do it." Zhang Haiyang stretched out his hand to the back, and a companion handed over a seven-inch long three-edged spatula. He took the knife in his hand and walked slowly towards Zhong Yuemin. A bloody fight was about to break out. At this time, Li Yuanchao, who had been watching the development of the situation not far away, suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang, both stop." He separated from the crowd and walked into the circle, and the two sides that were on the verge of swords stopped.

Zhang Haiyang and Li Yuanchao were also acquaintances, he raised his head and said in a friendly voice, "Oh, it's Yuanchao, hello, long time no see." Zhong Yuemin said coldly: "Yianchao, don't worry about this matter, I'm going to kill this kid." "Yuemin, Haiyang, can you all give me some face? In fact, everyone is not an outsider, Yuemin, let me introduce you, this is Zhang Haiyang, who lives in No. 2 courtyard, Bayi School. Haiyang, he It's Zhong Yuemin, who belong to Yuying School, and they are all from our own family. The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, so let's not let outsiders see the joke." Li Yuanchao sincerely mediated for both parties.

"You are from Yuying School? Do you know Luo Jianguo?" Zhang Haiyang asked. "Of course I do, that's my buddy. Do you know Yang Xiaojing from Bayi School?" Zhong Yuemin also relieved his breath. "He and I are classmates and have always had a good relationship." Zhong Yuemin put the kitchen knife into his satchel: "We've been arguing for a long time, we're all buddies, why should we fight? Forget it." Zhang Haiyang put away the spatula and shouted to his subordinates: "Put this guy away, this is a misunderstanding." Li Yuanchao patted the shoulders of the two of them: "That's right, you two brothers shook hands, and we will be friends from now on, so you need to take care of each other if you have anything to do." This is the characteristic of group fights. Often when there are too many people, the fight will fail, because there are always people who know each other in the crowd. Once the two sides match up, the parties involved will have a higher level. To save face, they simply shook hands and made peace, and after a while, they might become acquaintances and buddies.Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang became friends with a handshake. They did not expect that this handshake would be a lifelong friend. Although Li Yuanchao is a figure who commands the heroes, today's situation is a bit special, because all the game masters in the city have come, who is not the master who is used to dominating the one-third of an acre of land?No matter how powerful Li Yuanchao is, it is impossible for him to cover the sky with one hand. He had just calmed down the conflict between Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang, and two groups of people fought in front of the ticket window.A few soldiers of the People's Liberation Army wearing armbands on duty in the Beijing Garrison broke through the crowd and rushed forward to stop the fight. A soldier grabbed a young man who was beating someone and tried to drag him out of the crowd.A brick flew and hit the soldier on the forehead. The soldier moaned and covered the wound with his hands, with blood flowing from his fingers. The director of the Tianqiao Police Station led several police officers to arrive after hearing the news, but the perpetrator had long since disappeared. This is a true story that happened at the end of 1968. At that time, the police were not equipped with intercom communication equipment, and there was no other way but to call the police station for reinforcements.It is said that an hour later, a reinforcement company arrived here, and there was no one in front of the Tianqiao Theater except for a pile of broken bricks. Li Yuanchao had already got the tickets from his subordinates, so he said hello to his acquaintances, then turned around and prepared to leave.But when he turned around, he froze suddenly, because a bright dagger was pressing against his abdomen, and a surprised expression appeared on his face. At Li Yuanchao's age, no one dared to treat him so presumptuously. Could it be that this person is impatient?He found a ferocious face staring at him closely, and a deep scar on the left cheek was trembling slightly, silently showing that its owner was vicious and cruel. After all, Li Yuanchao had seen the storm, he stared at that face without any panic.His partners were shocked, and they all showed their knives and rushed forward. Scarface let out a low growl: "Whoever dares to move, I'll open his stomach." The four men behind him took a step forward at the same time, showing their axes. Li Yuanchao's subordinates were all overwhelmed by the fierceness of Scarface's gang, and their movements froze. Zhong Yuemin had just bought the ticket and left the ticket window, and was stunned seeing this scene.He slowly put his hand into the satchel, but was held down by Li Kuiyong, "Yuemin, don't move, you are not their opponent." "You know them? Who is that man?" "Little bastard, a famous outlaw in Xinjiekou, the master who dares to kill." Zhong Yuemin was surprised: "It's him? I've heard of this person." "Little bastard" sneered: "You are Li Yuanchao, right? I've heard about it for a long time, and my brothers also want to watch ballet. I've never seen it before. I heard that dancing girls don't wear clothes, right? " Li Yuanchao said calmly: "You are that little bastard, right? I heard that you were going to meet me, but I didn't expect to meet here. Cut the nonsense, what do you want to do?" "As expected of the famous Li Yuanchao, who has a knife in his stomach and speaks so rudely. I have nothing else to do. If it's not looking for a ticket, why am I here? Leave your ticket for me." "What if I don't give it?" "Then I'll open your stomach and stretch out the intestines one by one to dry." Zhong Yuemin pushed Li Kuiyong away and walked out of the crowd, flashed his kitchen knife and shouted: "Little bastard, let go of Li Yuanchao, let's practice one-on-one if you feel like it." The little bastard said in surprise: "Hey, where did a little brat pop out, he's quite kind, boy, have you heard of me?" "Fuck you, I don't care who you are." The little bastard lowered his face: "Little bastard, are you tired of working? Dare to scold me?" Zhang Haiyang also walked out of the crowd with a knife: "Little bastard, if you dare to touch Li Yuanchao, I will chop you into pieces today." Li Yuanchao waved his hands at them: "Yuemin, Haiyang, I have accepted your favors, and I will settle this matter myself, you little bastard, I will be counted as a victim today. Here are the tickets, you can go." Li Yuanchao's subordinates handed a few tickets to "little bastard", but "little bastard" didn't intend to withdraw the knife. He raised his chin and signaled Li Yuanchao to open the way for him. Li Kuiyong walked out of the crowd, smiled at the "little bastard" and said, "My buddy, you've almost got your share, it's time to call it a day." Seeing that it was Li Kuiyong, the "little bastard" pointed to Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang and said, "Kuiyong, are you here too? See, it's not that I don't want to leave, but these two boys won't let me go." Li Kuiyong said to Zhong Yuemin: "Yuemin, give me some face, this is the end of today's affairs, and you can take care of the future affairs yourself?" Zhong Yuemin nodded: "Okay, for your sake, I'll let him go today. Remember, our friendship is equal, and we will never be in debt from now on." Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang put away their knives, the crowd moved aside, and the little bastard, Li Kuiyong and others turned their heads to leave. Li Yuanchao said softly, "Wait a minute, little bastard, if one day you fall into my hands, guess what it will be like, have you ever thought about it?" "Little bastard" smiled: "My life is cheap, so I always want to change my life with rich people. I will not suffer if I change my life. Haven't you heard people say that barefoot people are not afraid of those who wear shoes." "Okay then, you can go." "See you next time!" "Little Bastard" and Li Kuiyong walked away. The popularity of Li Yuanchao's subordinates turned pale, and they all clamored: "Yianchao, we can't let them go..." Li Yuanchao waved his hand to stop them, he looked at the little bastard's back, and didn't speak for a long time, his handsome face gradually filled with murderous intent...
