Guizhou is a place that is like spring all year round. Even though it is already October, the willow branches on the roadside are still sprouting fresh green. The small emerald green buds are like babies, tender and full of vitality.
The stubborn Cao'er turned over the small stone that was pressing on Tou'er, stretched out, and gradually relaxed his body. Le read novels. Le read x. The morning dew was crystal clear, just like the pearls Cao'er hung around his neck.
The necklace, illuminated by the sun, glows with a different kind of youthfulness and enchantment.
There are not many pedestrians on the not-so-wide and flat official road from Pu'an County to An County. Since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, places such as Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan have become the rear area in a certain sense, and many northerners have begun to move here to avoid the Japanese army.
However, many of them gathered in big cities like Changsha and Kunming. However, there were not many refugees from the north in small places like Pu'an and Anxian. There were fewer people returning from the official road, but it was by no means none. Far away
A group of strong men coming from far away from Pu'an County were northern refugees preparing to enter Yunnan along the official road.
Although they will encounter all kinds of troubles on the way, and they will also encounter bandits and bandits, these refugees who migrated from the north are still heading towards Yunnan unswervingly. These seven or eight men all came from Guiyang in a scattered manner.
They got together after staying in Pu'an County for a while. Although they heard that the world in An County was not peaceful, they thought that they would have someone to look after them while walking together. Besides, everyone thought that their luck would not be bad.
We happened to encounter bandits who were blocking the road.
They are all refugees, not soldiers, so they only carry a five-foot-long wooden stick in their hands. It is better to say that this is their weapon, but it is better to say that this wooden stick is a tool for each of them to encourage themselves. If the bandits along the road really know how to
If they were frightened by the one-meter-long wooden sticks in their hands, then there would be no rumors about the ferocious bandits in An County. "Brother Wu, we are almost in An County and we haven't seen any bandits. Could it be that
Those people in Pu'an County deceived us." A young man who looked to be around twenty years old asked loudly to the sturdy man walking at the front.
The sturdy man in question was the oldest in the group. His name was Li Dafu. His name sounded tacky, but he was quite loyal, so he gathered these young men and ventured to An County. They subconsciously asked.
Carrying the heavy package on his back and feeling that the money was still there, Li Dafu felt at ease, "It's better to be careful. Rumors have spread in Pu'an County that there are bandits here in An County. If I don't have something urgent, I must hurry up before the end of the month."
When I rush to Kunming, I will never dare to take this risk."
"Everyone, please work harder. We should go around the two hills in front and we should be almost at An County. Let's go faster now and take a good rest when we get to An County. Slowing down now will only harm ourselves." Li Dafu tightened his grip.
He took off the wooden stick in his hand, turned around and whispered to his companions who were already looking tired. Li Dafu's worry was not unreasonable. The closer to the mountains and forests, the more bandits would appear. Only by seizing the time to climb over these mountains and forests can we
is the most correct.
Several people behind Li Dafu were responding when suddenly there was a clear ringing of bells from behind, and a rough shout: "The people in front should give way quickly, I startled my big green mule, and accidentally kicked it."
Your butts!" Everyone looked back and saw several large carts coming from behind. The cart at the front was being pulled by a rather strong-looking blue mule. The driver wore a piece of music on his head.
Straw hat, the clothes on his body are a black silk short coat, and it looks like he comes from a wealthy family.
Li Dafu and the others were all from small rural families. Although they were disgusted by the arrogance of the driver, they did not dare to provoke him. They could only stand on the side of the road obediently and get out of the way. The man in black who was driving the driver still said something when he saw everyone giving way.
Zai Heng said, "You know what you are doing, otherwise the whip will tear your skin to pieces." This man spoke rudely and had a very awkward accent.
The black-clothed coachman was still showing off when he saw a gap opened in the curtain of the carriage, and a pretty little girl poked her head out of the gap and said: "Old Ge, the young master is still in the car, why don't you continue to talk dirty words?"
"Bad words, I'll take a close look at your skin first!" This little girl hasn't even had her hair yet. She looks like she is about twelve or thirteen years old. She is fair and tender and looks very delicate, but her brows are full of disgust for the driver. The driver
She seemed to be very afraid of this little maid, so she quickly apologized and did not dare to speak openly again.
Li Dafu and others stood on the side of the road, waiting for those large cars to pass by before continuing on their way. There were three large cars in the past. Except for the first carriage with the young master in it, which looked quite luxurious, the remaining two large cars
The cars were very ordinary, but there were a few men in black holding rifles sitting on the last two large cars. Li Dafu had always been able to hide from these high-ranking people. Firstly, he couldn't afford to provoke him, and secondly, he
Looking disgusted.
Everyone was looking at the shadow of the carriage in the distance and guessing who was on the carriage. Suddenly, there was another sound of horse hooves hitting the ground behind them. Everyone learned from the previous incident and gave way before the people behind them could speak.
Before he could turn around, several fast horses had already passed by everyone. Li Dafu was too slow to hide and was almost knocked down by the horses. He opened his mouth in anger and cursed a few words. The knight on the horse only turned around and said coldly.
She glanced at him coldly and ignored him, but this glance was like a knife, as if it had looked directly into Li Dafu's heart.
Li Dafu's face changed in disbelief when he saw the fast horses running past. He whispered to his companions with a cold face: "Trouble is coming. It seems that we can't rush on our way today." Li Dafu's
The expression on his face could already tell the reason. The people who were following him on the road were all without backbones. After hearing what Li Dafu said, they all just turned to look at Li Dafu. No one asked the reason.
Seeing that the companions he had gathered were all like this, Li Dafu couldn't help but sigh and said: "According to the people in Pu'an County, those fast horses who just passed by were just bandits who stepped on the plates. They were probably going to
The idea of targeting those big cars, it seems that the people on those big cars will not end up well, and they deserve to be targeted by bandits, so unlucky!"
As soon as they heard that the fast horses passing by were bandits, the faces of the people around Li Dafu suddenly changed in fright, and they could not even move forward. Several of them trembled involuntarily, and their backs
Immediately, a layer of cold sweat broke out. "We have already come here. If we go back, we will be wronged. I plan to continue to An County. What do you mean?" I heard that there are bandits,
Those people had long been frightened. Li Dafu wanted to continue moving forward, but only the young man who had spoken to him before followed him. The others all expressed their intention to return to Pu'an County.
"Those carts and fast horses are faster than us. Maybe by the time we rush over, the bandits will have already left." Seeing that there was only one person following him, Li Dafu half joked and half encouraged.
He said, although Li Dafu's expression was unquestionable, he himself was also very unsure. Although it was already past the beginning of autumn, the weather was still sultry. Li Dafu and the young man named Zhang walked along the forest beside the official road.
We walked until we reached a place called Shuangfeng Valley by the locals and then stopped.
Shuangfeng Valley is not far from Anxian County. As long as Li Dafu and the others pass through Shuangfeng Valley and go straight west for four or five miles, they can reach Anxian County. However, they, fairies, can only hide outside Shuangfeng Valley because there are places within their sight.
, there were two groups of people fighting in the valley. The large trucks that Li Dafu and the others saw earlier had overturned on the side of the road. There were some men in black lying beside the large trucks. Looking at their movements, they knew that those men in black were lying on the side of the road.
The man is already in a bad situation.
The two groups fighting in the valley looked like they were not serious people at first glance. The one with more people was dressed in shabby clothes, and most of them were armed with axes and machetes, and they were hacking indiscriminately. Although the other group was smaller in number, they had many weapons in their hands.
Holding spears and waist knives, they fought in coordination with each other and kept pace with each other. From time to time they shouted at their opponents to kneel down and beg for mercy. It was obvious that they were small in number, but they had the advantage.
"Brother Li, look quickly, there are still people alive on the other side of the big car." Li Dafu looked in the direction of the finger of the young man named Zhang. The big car that had overturned on the roadside was vaguely surrounded by a circle.
The two men in black were slowly retreating towards the grass on the roadside with the help of the cover of the cart. Both parties in the melee in the valley obviously did not pay attention to the cart. When they saw the two men, they were about to retreat into the grass on the roadside and kept hiding.
Li Dafu and Li Dafu in the distance couldn't help but be secretly happy.
"Oops, they've been discovered." The young man surnamed Zhang suddenly exclaimed. An injured bandit who retreated obviously noticed something strange on the other side of the cart, and was pointing in the direction in which the two people were retreating and shouting loudly. "Pop."
"There was a gunshot, and the injured bandit who screamed fell on his back. The two men in black who had retreated to the edge of the grass stood up and ran away. When the gun was fired, Li Dafu's first reaction was to lie down.
Although they are still far away from there, who knows if stray bullets will fly over and hurt them.
At first, they saw that the two gangs were just fighting with swords, axes and spears. Li Dafu and the others still had some luck. However, after the two men in black who were eager to escape opened fire, the two gangs of bandits miraculously stopped fighting among themselves.
He ordered his gun to be drawn out and shot at the two men in black. The gunfire sounded like fried beans in the shuangfeng valley. The two men in black who had already fled into the grass were hit by bullets fired from behind before they could run very far.
Like a gourd of blood, Li Dafu and the two men lying down in the distance saw their backs covered with cold sweat.
"They're killing people, they're killing people." The young man surnamed Zhang who was lying next to Li Dafu trembled and wanted to get up and run away. Just as Li Dafu was about to reach out his hand to stop him, he was struck by a hard object in the back of his mind, and at the same time, a slightly cold figure
The voice rang in my ears, "Don't move around, lie down and watch the fun. If you are not honest, I will carefully send you down to the underworld to meet the Lord of Hell."
