When she said this, her voice was full of trust and determination, as if Mu Yuanqi's existence itself represented the hope of victory.

She recalled every moment she had participated in the revolutionary cause under the leadership of Mu Yuan, a leader who was always smiling and full of wisdom, and who always made the most correct decisions at the most critical moments.

"Gao Tu, please make some arrangements. I need to go to Jiujiang as soon as possible." She said decisively.

Gao Tu nodded and immediately began to arrange He Qing's itinerary.

The docks of Shanghai are still busy, with workers busy loading and unloading goods, vendors shouting, and boats coming and going on the river, making it very lively.

He Qing stood at the dock, facing the river breeze, looking at a ship about to set sail not far away, his thoughts racing.

The river breeze blew across her cheek, bringing a hint of coolness, but it couldn't dispel the worries in her heart.

Her keen sense of the revolutionary trend made her realize that the situation in Jiujiang might slide into a cruel direction.

She did not overestimate the warlords' bottom line. They were definitely capable of sending out troops to massacre unarmed workers.

Therefore, she had to rush to Jiujiang as soon as possible and bring the guns and ammunition supported by the Communist International there through secret channels.

As the ferry sailed away, Gao Tu stared at the gradually receding silhouette of the ship with deep eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Comrade Mu Yuan is still too kind. He treats a capitulator like Chen Xiuquan with kindness." Gao Tu whispered to himself.

He assisted Mu Yuan in many of his actions in the Magic City.

For example, he worked almost non-stop to ensure that the publication of Liaoyuan Weekly could spread all over the country and spread the revolutionary fire. The establishment of workers' organizations consumed a lot of his energy. He needed to personally investigate and recruit activists. In addition, he provided financial support to those bankrupt workers to ensure that they had solid backing in the struggle.

And what about Chen Xiuquan? Gao Tu's eyes became angry. He saw Chen Xiuquan moving in and out of the upper class and celebrity circles, mixing with those so-called "national capitalists" and Dayan bureaucrats. He said that he wanted to fight for the survival space for the Youth Daily, but in fact he lived comfortably, enjoying the glory and wealth, how happy!

"Since Comrade Mu Yuan has left the Magic City, I am responsible for the Magic City's affairs, so I will handle Chen Xiuquan's problem!"

Gao Tu took a deep breath, turned around and left the dock with firm steps.

His name is Gao Tu! Gao Tu!

Soon, he arrived at the Youth Daily with a document.

"Hello, Comrade Chen Xiuquan. I am the Communist International's resident representative in Dayan. I am here to inform you of a resolution of the Dayan International." Gao Tu said in a calm and firm voice.

After learning about the Communist International's resolution to support Dayan's revolution, Chen Xiuquan was so excited that his hands began to tremble.

"Great! The Communist International is here, and there is hope for the future of Dayan!"

After the excitement, Chen Xiuquan realized that he didn't know the name of the comrade in front of him, and asked quickly: "By the way, comrade, what should I call you?"

The young comrade had a grin on his face.

A chilling murderous aura made Chen Xiuquan's expression change.

"Slaughter those high and mighty masters, and slaughter anyone who dares to block the progress of the Communist International!"

Dark Forest: Liberating the Three Bodies: Chapter 154: Within Years, Da Yan Will Die

Gao Tu is the Communist International's resident representative in Dayan and also serves as the head of the Special Operations Department. His official identity is a librarian in Modu.

Few people knew his true identity. Even Chen Xiuquan had no idea that the Communist International had already established a specific office and liaison personnel in Dayan.

His family background is somewhat complicated. His ancestors were high-ranking officials in Dayan and were extremely prominent, but by his generation, his family had declined beyond recognition.

But fortunately, thanks to the protection of his ancestors, his family is still much better off than ordinary families. Although their fortunes have declined, they still have a little surplus and they have no worries about food and drink.

Gao Tu was extremely intelligent since childhood. He could speak at the age of one, read at the age of three, and recite poems at the age of five. His parents were very excited to see his performance and placed all their hopes for the family's improvement on him.

Gao Tu did not disappoint their expectations and passed the imperial examination and became a scholar at the age of nine.

But just when his parents were extremely excited and wanted him to go further, Dayan abolished the "imperial examination system".

This news came like a bolt from the blue, and his parents were deeply shocked.

They had hoped that their children would pass the imperial examination and become officials, bringing honor to the family. But now that their hopes were dashed, they were at a loss.

My child’s hope of becoming an official is gone. What should I do?

But in the end, his parents did not give up hope. They asked around and heard that people who graduated from new-style schools could become officials if they passed the exams. So, relying on the connections left by their ancestors, they sent him to a famous new-style school.

The fate of Gaotu also changed in this transformation.

The traditional imperial examination system of Dayan was to select scholars based on the eight-part essay, which required candidates to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics. Gao Tu grew up in such an environment. Every morning, under the guidance of his father, he would recite those ancient classics, with the teachings of Confucian sages echoing in his ears, and his mind was filled with feudal ethical thoughts such as the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues and the Hundred Family Filial Piety.

However, after entering the new-style school, he was exposed to completely different educational content.

The classroom is no longer filled with the sounds of reciting "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius". Instead, it is filled with the derivation of mathematical formulas, the operation of physical experiments, the exploration of chemical reactions, and the observation and experiment of biology.

Gao Tu still remembers the wonder and shock he felt when he first saw microorganisms under a microscope. The charm of science far exceeds the so-called Four Books and Five Classics. In addition, literary subjects such as politics, history, literature and geography are also full of fresh knowledge. The teacher tells the history of all parts of the world and explains the changes in politics, economy and society.

More importantly, the ideas accepted are no longer feudal ethical ideas, but freedom, equality, and democratic revolution.

These two completely different worldviews created a violent conflict in his mind. At night, he often lay on his bed in the dormitory, staring at the dim ceiling, the old and new ideas in his mind fighting with his body, a life-and-death struggle.

The advanced will defeat the backward, the relatively excellent will defeat the relatively corrupt, and the useful will defeat the useless.

However, feudal ethical ideas are obviously useless, backward and decadent.

So he quickly despised those feudal ideas that were as disgusting as shit and urine, completely denied the feudal ideas of the past, and transformed himself into a young man with cutting-edge ideas.

What made him take a further step in bourgeois ideology and transform himself into a Marxist was one of his classmates and very good friends, He Qing.

He Qing is a girl about his age.

Although she is a girl, she is as capable as any man and no one should underestimate her.

She was a very outstanding person, born into a large family, and could be considered a lady from a noble family. Her family sent her to school because they wanted her to become a well-educated and well-mannered woman so that they could be sold for a good price in the future.

But things went against their wishes. Her growth completely deviated from the expectations of her family and she seemed particularly "rebellious".

This rebellion is not only in thought, but also in action.

In daily life, her behavior was no different from that of men. Sometimes, she would even dress herself up in rags and call Gao Tu to go among the beggars to conduct investigations and research.

Gaotu was originally created for fun, just as a game.

But gradually, the tragic lives he experienced and the contrast between the starving people on the street and the luxury of the rich left him with a deep shock.

He had never had to worry about food and clothing since he was a child, and had never seen a world so poor and desperate.

What happened to this world?

He was in deep thought.

...

During the banquet, people were laughing and talking, and glasses were clinking frequently.

"What do you think of my Great Yan Country?"

"Good, very good!"

This was a local official. At the banquet, Gao Tu couldn't help asking him a question, and the Yan official answered casually. After saying this, he continued to drink and have fun. What a joy.

However, on the street just across the wall, the houses were dilapidated, the road was muddy and uneven, and there was an unbearable stench.

Turning another corner, you can see a starved and stinking corpse lying on the street corner.

When Gao Tu came, he stood beside the corpse and looked at him for a long time. His body was pale and thin, covered with dirt and wrinkles, and it looked like he had not been noticed for a long time.

...

"Teacher, what do you think of the current Yan Kingdom?"

He asked the teacher at school again, but the teacher just took him to a scenic villa and pointed to the majestic mountains with a heroic tone.

"Haha, look at this vast land, how beautiful it is. Our Yan country is vast and rich in resources. It's so beautiful, so beautiful!"

Gao Tu looked at the scenery, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of joy in his heart. He lowered his head, and his eyes were inexplicably wet.

Above the picture of the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, he seemed to see countless hungry faces, countless people shouting and wailing miserably, as if there were tens of thousands of hungry ghosts roaring at him.

...

"Father, what do you think of Yan Country?"

Gao Tu asked his elderly father with doubt.

My father stroked his beard, looked into the distance with deep eyes, and smiled slightly: "Although there are many shortcomings in our Yan Dynasty, it is actually stable and improving. Look at those new schools, railways, and new technologies brought by foreigners. They are slowly changing the face of our country."

Gao Tu listened to his father's words, and although he was a little confused, he still nodded, as if he was somewhat comforted.

However, when he said these words to He Qing, He Qing sneered.

He asked in confusion: "Brother Qing, why are you laughing?"

He Qing spitted, his eyes sharp as a knife, and said mercilessly: "Yan Country will perish."

Her words exploded in Gaotu's ears like thunder, shaking Gaotu's heart violently.

"Within twenty years, Yan Nation will be destroyed!"

Dark Forest: Liberating the Three Bodies: Chapter 155 Suddenly there is a madman sharpening his knife at night, the flaming star is swaying and Mars is high!

He Qing's words were so alarmist that Gao Tu couldn't understand them.

How could it be possible for such a big country like Yan to perish so quickly?

Everyone says that the situation in Yan State is very good, it is good and stable, and it shouldn't be destroyed...

Gao Tu had an argument with He Qing about this, and He Qing was unable to convince him. However, these thoughts still left some seeds in his heart.

until...

That day, Gao Tu heard the bad news from home.

His father passed away.

He hurried home and saw his father's swollen and bruised body. He learned the whole story from his grief-stricken mother.

When his father was eating at an inn, he saw a man harassing a decent woman and stepped forward to stop him.

Originally, he had a little face in this small county town, but who would have thought that the man would not give him any face at all, nor would he play according to the rules of a cultured person, but directly called for people to beat him up.

Naturally, he fought back hard, but he didn't expect that when these people saw his resistance, they became more vicious and beat him to death without mercy.

Gao Tu's mother was naturally heartbroken and went to report the murder to the police. However, she learned that the murderer was the nephew of the newly appointed county magistrate. After she reported the murder to the police, the county magistrate determined in court that those people were acting in so-called "self-defense". Not only did he not sentence them, he even absurdly asked her to pay them money!

Gao Tu's mother was naturally dissatisfied, "If you judge cases like this, is there any law left in the Yan Kingdom?"

"Wang Fa?"

Seeing that the woman was so foolish, the county magistrate laughed out loud.

"I find it funny when you talk to me about the law."

"In this classroom, I am the law!"

"Someone, take this woman away! It's bad luck!"

...

Gao Tu was furious when he learned the whole story. However, seeing his mother with tear marks and red and swollen eyes, he could only suppress his anger and comforted her: "Don't worry, mother. I know some classmates with strong backgrounds and will definitely bring those people to justice."

When he saw his mother fall asleep from exhaustion, he clenched his fists, with uncontrollable anger on his face.

These guys who are just sitting there doing nothing are so despicable!

He went to the study, wrote a letter to his mother, and prepared to set off immediately, without stopping, to find a good friend who could solve the matter.

But when he came back and pushed open the door, his pupils shrank, his eyes turned red, and he knelt on the ground.

“Mother! Why!!”

His mother hanged herself on the beam and was no longer making any sound.

Gao Tu was extremely sad, and the sadder he was, the more hatred he felt.

He prepared his weapons and made a careful plan. After many days of investigation and lying in wait, he finally found a good opportunity, sneaked into the county magistrate's mansion, chopped off his head with a butcher knife, and then set fire to all his treasures of many years.

After killing him, he immediately found the murderers, who were drinking and having fun. Gao Tu glared at them with eyes as big as copper bells, and stabbed them to death one by one in a few moves.

After doing all this, Gao Tu fled back to school.

The county magistrate's lackeys dare not come to the school to arrest people.

"What on earth is wrong with this world?"

In the following days, he was like a walking corpse, his eyes had lost their luster, and he seemed to have lost his soul.
