Chapter 297 Gathering

Due to Chen Ru's sudden appearance, Chen Ning and others temporarily gave up their attention to the mysterious small building in Yongcheng Lane and the Japanese envoy. Wang Daotian and others from the Beiping Station of the Military Control Commission also had to lie down due to the arrival of Li Tieshu and the Rangers and their actions in Peng Mansion that day, and temporarily gave up their assassination of the Japanese envoy Tojo Nobuzawa and Hiroshima Zhixin.

That night, with the help of Peng Dezhu and others, Xiao Cheng and everyone in Hengxin Restaurant escaped from a secret passage that they had never known. Not long after they left, Hengxin Restaurant was surrounded by the Japanese. This secret passage that Xiao Cheng and others could not have imagined was very long. They finally came out in a small courtyard in the west of the city. After escaping, Xiao Cheng saw the shopkeeper Wu Baoxu bowing his head and spy secretly with a few people, and one of them seemed to have seen someone somewhere. Not long after that, it took him a long time to see one of them.

Manager Wu walked over and told all the friends that Hengxin Restaurant was surrounded by the Japanese. For everyone's safety, he hoped that dozens of chefs who were not often in front would find a way to leave the city after the city gate was released tomorrow. Those who often welcomed and sent off in the front hall would follow them out of the city through the secret passage. Manager Wu also said that he would ensure everyone's safety. A man named Liao would lead the remaining people out of the city tomorrow to find them. Manager Wu also said that after meeting tomorrow, he would pay everyone's money so that everyone could have a way out.

Although the gangsters were very uneasy, everything that happened that night made them feel as if they were walking on the edge of the gate of hell, but they all obeyed Manager Wu's arrangements. Xiao Cheng was a friend who was often in the front hall, so he was taken out of the city overnight by Manager Wu and others. Next, Xiao Cheng really felt that everything was incredible. After they came out of this courtyard, they quietly avoided the Japanese patrolling the streets, passed through two alleys and entered a small courtyard near the city wall. Then, under the arrangement of Manager Wu and Mr. Yang and others, they entered a dry well on one side of the yard and slowly moved towards the city wall from a secret passage at the bottom of the dry well. Xiao Cheng and the others didn't know how long they had walked, and they could not walk upright in the secret passage. They were all enough to bend down and slowly move forward step by step. When there was a slight light on the side, Xiao Cheng thought in his mind that it must be the end.

After drilling out of the secret passage, Xiao Cheng and his friends were a little confused, but there was a desolate mountainous land around them. They emerged from the hinterland of the foot of a small hillside. At this time, the secret passage was not brightly lit, and Xiao Cheng and the others saw that the light was just a faint moonlight from the Moon Palace under the dark night. Everyone who came out was warned by Manager Wu to be careful and not to speak loudly. After everyone came out, led by Manager Wu and several others who could not see the faces clearly, they quietly continued to move westward. After Xiao Cheng walked not long after walking, he looked back. From the hillside they occupied now, he could vaguely see the dim lights on the wall of Beiping. It seemed that this place was not very far from the wall.

Everyone followed Manager Wu and others all night long. When the fish belly was leaking out that day, Xiao Cheng clearly saw that they seemed to be in the west mountain west of Beiping. When the sky was approaching bright light, they walked into the hinterland of the west mountain. On a mountainside, they saw several thatched houses. Wu Baoxu said, ordering the guys to rest quickly and wait for the guys in the city to make plans after the round. Xiao Cheng looked down at the mountainside. They were in a dense forest on the mountainside. Even if they entered the foot of the mountain, they would not be able to find someone here without careful observation. Even if they found it, they would not be able to escape the eyes of the people on the mountain.

"What's wrong with the little brother? Is there anything wrong with the mountain?" Xiao Cheng looked at the mountain and admired the person who chose this place. He hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked back. The gentleman named Yang was the accountant of Hengxin Restaurant, standing in front of him with a smile. Xiao Cheng looked at Yang Yifeng's deep gaze, and Xiao Cheng couldn't help but feel a sudden slap in his heart, but then calmed down and immediately turned into the look of a waiter in the past, saying: "When I say that, Xiao is a little scared, I want to see if there is any chasing at the foot of the mountain, please atone for your sins!"

Yang Yifeng saw the strangeness in his heart from Xiao Cheng's eyes, but was surprised that he could immediately change into a waiter character, and at the same time he also became suspicious of him.

Seeing Xiao Cheng following the back of the middle-aged man entering the thatched house, Yang Yifeng felt even more suspicious of him. He secretly told Peng Dezhu about his discovery. Peng Dezhu ordered not to disturb him and first inquire about Xiao Cheng's background from Wu Baoxu. Yang Yifeng had doubts about Xiao Cheng. This matter made Wu Baoxu not believe that Xiao Cheng would have any problems. This young man was sent by a vegetable seller whom Peng Dezhu and his friends had known many years ago a year before he arrived in Peking. He said that his grandson wanted to find a livelihood in the city. Wu Baoxu looked at the old farmer on the face of the old farmer and kept Xiao Cheng without saying a word. Wu Baoxu said that since Xiao Cheng entered the Hengxin Restaurant, he had fallen in love with this young man, very loyal and diligent in his work. If he hadn't been young, he would have asked him to replace another man as the second counter in the front hall.

Hearing Wu Baoxu say this, Peng Dezhu hesitated to doubt whether Yang Yifeng was too cautious, so he became suspicious of Xiao Cheng. Yang Yifeng saw Peng Dezhu looking at him with doubt. Although he felt relieved of Xiao Cheng because of Wu Baoxu's words, he still felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't think of something wrong for a moment. He shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said to Peng Dezhu and Wu Baoxu with a smile: "Maybe I'm nervous. The things I have made me feel suspicious of these days. But since Xiao Cheng was sent by an old friend of Manager Wu, there should be no problem."

"Oh! I just said, why would Xiao Cheng have problems? He has been with me for many years!" After hearing Yang Yifeng's words, Wu Baoxu said with a relaxed smile.

However, just when Wu Baoxu and Yang Yifeng thought that this item was just forgot and were about to get up and leave, Peng Dezhu grabbed Wu Baoxu and asked, "Shopkeeper Wu, did you say that the old farmer who delivered vegetables would deliver vegetables to the store later?"

Wu Baoxu was stunned, hesitated for a while, and frowned and said, "I often came to see you off a few years ago, but since last year I changed his eldest grandson. Oh! By the way, it's Brother Xiao Cheng. Xiao Cheng said that he was his uncle's son and his cousin."

Upon hearing this, Peng Dezhu not only had doubts in his heart, but he did not continue to ask anything. After Wu Baoxu left, Peng Dezhu ordered Yang Yifeng to Wang Junshui, Liao Kun, Jiang Yige and others to order them all to secretly monitor Xiao Cheng and always pay attention to whom he had secretly contacted.

Peng Dezhu and his friends were resting on the mountain until noon, and Liao Kun and Wang Junshui finally arrived. They had already gone to the city gate early in the morning, but they saw that the check was too tight and retreated. Until it was almost noon, the check was a little relaxed, and everyone disguised themselves as the trash people left the city, and then headed straight to the west mountain.

After all the people reached it, Peng Dezhu pulled Wu Baoxu aside. After giving this order, Wu Baoxu gathered all the people from Hengxin Restaurant together. After scanning the people in front of him, Wu Baoxu cleared his throat and said, "Brothers, some of you are the elderly from Hengxin Restaurant, and some have arrived at our Hengxin Restaurant in the past two years. However, I, Wu Baoxu, are very trusting and close to everyone. I guess all brothers are confused about what happened last night. Here, brother, I might as well tell the truth. The reason why Hengxin Restaurant was surrounded by the Japanese last night was because Hengxin Restaurant was indeed related to the heroes and heroes of the anti-Japanese war!"

As soon as Wu Baoxu said this, the people present immediately made the sneering sounds, and at the same time they all secretly looked at Peng Dezhu, Jiang Yige, Yang Yifeng and others not far away. Wu Baoxu wanted this result. Seeing everyone lowered their heads and whispered, and the eyes of Peng Dezhu and others couldn't help but feel shocked. Many people's eyes even showed admiration. After a refreshed cough, Wu Baoxu continued: "Brothers, don't be afraid that you all know that these people in front of you are heroes and heroes of the anti-Japanese war. Everyone should know that a high official from the Japanese was killed in the north of Beiping City a few days ago, and some brothers in our restaurant were caught by the Japanese to beat him up! What's the matter? It's done by these heroes in front of you!"

"What! They killed that Japanese devil!"

"Oh! My mother, these are all gods of killing!"

"Tsk!Tsk!Tsk! I didn't expect we could see such a hero!"

...

"If Taijun knows this, we will be with such a person, and we will be stripped alive!"

"I think it's better to stay away from these people, otherwise people won't know when their heads will be gone!"

“…”

After Wu Baoxu said that, everyone talked again, no matter what they said. Wu Baoxu did not let them continue to discuss this time. He raised his hand and continued to say, "Brothers! No matter what you think, I will tell you these things that will not let you understand. Wu Baoxu is also a Chinese with backbone! Some of us cannot go back to the city when what happened yesterday. If someone thinks that he is still a Chinese and has backbone and dares to fight the Japanese, I hope he can stay for him and continue to fight with the Japanese. But don't worry, whoever you are willing to leave? I will give him a salary for the previous year now, but there is a saying that I have to say that if I dare to reveal our whereabouts after taking the money, have you seen it?" Wu Baoxu pointed to Peng Dezhu behind him and said, "These heroes are all means. At that time, don't blame yourself for not being able to control your mouth!"

After Wu Baoxu finished speaking, everyone looked at Peng Dezhu and the others, and then looked at his companion, he stood up and said to Wu Baoxu loudly: "Shopkeeper, I was sent to you by grandpa. I took you for many years to take in to give the young man a place to settle down. Now you want to go with these heroes, and I, Xiao Cheng, are willing to follow you to continue to be sad!"

"Okay! It's worthy of being the guy who has been with me for many years!" Xiao Cheng stood up and spoke, which made Wu Baoxu feel very pleased. With Xiao Cheng's lead, the other hesitant people immediately expressed their willingness to follow, but there were still eight people who didn't say anything. Wu Baoxu did not blame him, but immediately took a pack of ocean from Yang Yifeng and distributed it to these eight people. After taking care of them, he went down the mountain with Jiang Yige and Liao Kun.

Xiao Cheng did not expect that he was the first to stand up to express his willingness to stay, which instead further aggravated the suspicion of Peng Dezhu, Yang Yifeng and others about him.
