camp.

The night is as cool as water, and the air in the village is particularly good. Sitting on the ridge and looking at the moon, I also feel that the moon is bigger and closer than what I saw in Shanghai. When Zhao Yanzhi was looking at the moon in a trance, Fu Huaiqiu took He took off a piece of clothing and put it lightly on his body, and he slowly sat beside him, Zhao Yanzhi smiled at him: "Thank you."

"You are weak. Didn't Uncle Wang tell you just now, it's best not to go out at night, if the wind blows, your old illness may recur."

"But I can't sleep, and the moon here is so beautiful."

"What a beautiful day, what a beautiful day, whose house is a place to enjoy...cough cough cough..."

Before Zhao Yanzhi finished singing this sentence, he coughed violently. His throat is completely useless now. Every time he tries to use force, his throat seems to be pricked by thousands of needles, but this pain is He didn't know whether to be grateful or to hate what Feng Chunsheng brought to him. In this way, he would never be able to compare with him.

Fu Huaiqiu was shocked when he heard Zhao Yanzhi sing this line. He had never heard this scene for many years, and he hadn't heard anyone sing this line for a long time. He took a different path, and now, because of the Peony Pavilion, he got to know Zhao Yanzhi.

He patted Zhao Yanzhi on the back, "Stop singing, your voice is still not good." After hearing Fu Huaiqiu's comforting words, Zhao Yanzhi gave him a helpless and bitter smile, and looked up at the moon again. The moon is the first quarter moon, and the half of the moon is hidden in the clouds, like a little girl shyly covering her face with a veil. The incompleteness of the moon made Zhao Yanzhi feel a little heartbroken. He replied: "Never It will be fine, not only my throat, but me too."

But Fu Huaiqiu acted as if he didn't hear anything, he didn't look at Zhao Yanzhi, and said to himself: "I want to save you, not because of senior brother, nor because of other reasons, but because I don't want to let you The other me is hurt, I've suffered enough, I don't want you to be implicated, you're innocent, you don't have to get involved in any fights."

He turned his head to look into Zhao Yanzhi's eyes very seriously, and Zhao Yanzhi also looked back at Fu Huaiqiu. He was as sincere as usual, but Zhao Yanzhi was a little stunned by what he said from the bottom of his heart, and he almost stood up. , he laughed: "Another me? You and I are not alone at all."

"You look so much like me, and you are younger than me, you must be my brother."

Zhao Yanzhi was choked by Fu Huaiqiu at once, he stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of his hair, "You are so obedient, I will definitely protect you, brother." Fu Huaiqiu blinked at Zhao Yanzhi, that naughty look almost Zhao Yanzhi couldn't sit still, he also laughed: "Whoever wants to recognize you as an elder brother, there are so many similar people in the world!"

"Okay, it's fine if you don't want to be my brother, let's go back."

"Ah."

Hearing Fu Huaiqiu's words, Zhao Yanzhi lay on the bed and shed tears. He couldn't hold back in the end. He was still cared about by others. Fu Huaiqiu was so considerate of him and he was so kind. The hatred has disappeared, and now he can live here safely, all thanks to Fu Huaiqiu, he secretly made a decision.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yanzhi put on his clothes and walked outside Fu Huaiqiu's house. Fu Huaiqiu hurriedly opened the door when he heard the knock on the door. What's the matter with me?"

Zhao Yanzhi looked at Fu Huaiqiu, pinched the corner of his clothes, and said with determination: "I have a sum of money here, and I want to donate it to the Eighth Route Army." "What did you say?" Fu Huaiqiu was standing a little far away from Zhao Yanzhi. He said these words calmly and calmly, and he couldn't help but be surprised. Now that the expenses are tight, funds are indeed needed, but no matter what, Zhao Yanzhi can't get the money out. Now that he is in a predicament, how can he take advantage of others? Take people's money.

"You must not, you should keep the money for yourself..." "No, I have made up my mind to live here for the past few days, thanks to the help of the villagers and soldiers, the money is left to Xiaobao by my master , this money was not mine in the first place. Now that Master passed away and Xiaobao is gone, it is wrong to put this money with me. Master's spirit in heaven knows that I do this, so he will definitely not blame me for this money. It must be given to you." "However, I can't accept it. If you keep this money and leave here, you can go back to your hometown or go to Shanghai. It will always be useful." He didn't listen to Fu Huaiqiu's words, he just shook his head blindly, "Don't talk about Huaiqiu, I might stay here in the future, and I won't go anywhere. I like it very much here, and I won't go back to Shanghai, nor will I. I know where my hometown is, and Master’s house has already been sold, so I don’t have a place to live, this place is very good, and I won’t leave.”

"you……"

"Don't say anything. This money is now stored in the money bank. I will tell you how to withdraw it. Be sure to accept it. This is my heart and my determination. I have given you this money. I will never think about going elsewhere again, it’s good to stay here, I know how to do farm work, and I can survive.”

Fu Huaiqiu looked at the satisfied smile on Zhao Yanzhi's face. He didn't know whether he was happy or sad for him. He could only nod in response. When he watched Zhao Yanzhi leave, Fu Huaiqiu felt a little guilty in his heart. He thought, if Zhao Yanzhi Staying here, I don't know whether it is safe or ruined for him.

Chapter 64

By the time Higashida Shinji came to Sawano Takuma's mansion, the place was completely changed, and there was no trace of luxury and grace in the usual days. There were corpses everywhere on the ground, and the thick smoke was like a piece of insoluble ink. Higashida Shinji clenched the gun in his hand, and carefully entered the mansion with the people behind him. The entire villa was filled with an atmosphere of despair, and his heart also tugged. He asked the people behind him to search separately. Also straight to the dungeon.

When he rushed into the dungeon, he found nothing, and he didn't see Zhao Yanzhi. He seemed not to believe what he saw. He frowned and searched one by one, but the dungeon was empty. No.His heart was getting more and more flustered, he didn't know what to do next, and now he couldn't even find the trace of Sawano Takuma, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him—"Report, sir, we found Mr. Sawano of..." "Take me there!"

Standing among this pile of bloody corpses, Sawano Takuma's face could barely be seen clearly, the wrinkles between Higashida Shinji's brows became deep, and he shouted: "Go and search for me again! Find it for me!" "Yes! Sir!"

Higashida Shinji stood outside the door, there was a thunder in the sky without warning, and then heavy rain came one after another, cold and sparse raindrops hit the ground bit by bit, this rain seemed to wash away the place The crime that just came, the looting that wiped everything clean, the rain mixed with blood gave off a corrupt but fresh smell, he stood in the middle of the street without doing anything, letting the rain fall on his face, Gray showers fell on the gloomy sky, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Higashida Shinji could barely open his eyes. He could only hear the loud sound of rain. Standing in the rain, he didn't even know that his tears were flowing from his eyes. The middle flow came out, he squeezed the gun tightly in his hand, and clenched his fingers so hard that they were about to sink into the palm of his hand. With the rush of the wind, a flash of light thundered down from the sky. In the rumbling thunder, Shinji Higashida again Unable to stand still, he fell to his knees with a bang, his head bowed like a sinner kneeling under the court, accepting the baptism piously and painfully, he no longer wanted to think about anything about Zhao Yanzhi.

The soldiers standing in the courtyard didn't dare to rush forward. They saw the commander's back soaked by the rain, and felt a sense of loss in their hearts. Higashida Shinji just knelt in front of the door with his head bowed. I could see his expression clearly, and his shoulders did not tremble violently. He was crying bitterly, not even letting himself make a sound. He was such a person who always suppressed himself, so that after losing his precious Sometimes, I don't know how to express my emotions at all.

He knew that Zhao Yanzhi didn't even have any good feelings for him, and everything he did didn't look like he liked a person at all. He knew how heinous his behavior was, but he couldn't deny his heart , Now recalling the startling glimpse that day, it seems like the beginning of yesterday, but now I have destroyed everything, so what if Sawano Takuma is dead, Zhao Yanzhi has disappeared.

Another year of spring, Zhao Yanzhi has been in the village for more than three months, this year he did not spend the Spring Festival with Lin Ma and Xiao Ling, the whereabouts of these two people are still unknown, Fu Huaiqiu only said that he saw them both before the war broke out In the theater in Shanghai, there was no contact after that. Zhao Yanzhi shook his head with a wry smile. It is the greatest reward from God that he can live safely and soundly. His voice has also slowly recovered, and normal communication is no longer possible. The problem is that he can still help with some work in the village every day, and just when he felt that he was at ease, Fu Huaiqiu came to him.

"I'm leaving here soon. The organization has plans for the next step. You can wait for me here. If I triumph, I will help you find out the whereabouts of Mama Lin and Xiao Ling."

"You just need to come back after winning the battle safely, and I don't want to trouble you any more. Take care all the way."
