Costume Mountains and Rivers

Soft and slender hands, the smell of perfume in the palm, the palm is cold, it must have been frozen outside for a long time, wearing a cold platinum watch on the wrist, Mo Qinghe was not robbed of her sanity by the panic, biting her lower lip tightly, her pupils Suddenly enlarged, he heard a familiar voice whispering in his ear: "Brother, it's me, don't make a sound!"

Mo Qinghe nodded, and followed him back into the shadows of the alley, until it was confirmed that their voices could not be heard outside, then she eagerly pushed Yunyang's hand away, turned her head and said: "Chen Zongyi brought many people to look for you, Why are you here?"

"I saw you talking, and I followed him all the time." Yun Yang said briefly, squinting his eyes, staring at a piece of light at the end of the alley like a prey, his handsome melon-seeded face showed serious concentration. Turning his eyes back to Mo Qinghe, "You don't leave, they are going to search the city!"

"I'll take you along!" Mo Qinghe didn't care what his junior brother said at all, grabbed his wrist eagerly, was stunned again, and looked back at Yun Yang, "...you have been following him?"

Hang Yunyang showed a sly smile and his eyes were unpredictable.

Mo Qinghe was surprised by his composure at the moment. He looked at Hang Yunyang seriously, looked at his hair wetted by the snow and the drops of water flowing from his forehead, and suddenly felt that he was completely different from the junior who appeared in the foyer of the foreign building in the middle of the night. , his demeanor is no longer flustered, his eyes are restrained and calm, his eyes skip over the cold dagger in Mo Qinghe's hand, without any pause, as if it is not a murder weapon that is about to drink blood, but just before Danjiao's appearance, An embroidered round fan in her hand.

Mo Qinghe noticed a trace of familiarity from his uncharacteristic behavior, her heart trembled suddenly, and she tentatively said: "I want to see a friend, and I wasted a little time..."

"Ruyi Tea House?" Hang Yunyang frowned, and quickly glanced at him, "Didn't I already bring you the news? Zong Yi has rebelled, and there will be no more boats. You should hide for a few days and wait for a new one to be built." Contact the line, and then find a way to get out of the city."

Mo Qinghe took a breath, only felt that the cold wind this night was not as cold as the one that passed between his teeth now, it was almost soaking into his bone marrow. He understood that at this very moment, all the abnormal signals on the junior brother's body disappeared. With a reasonable explanation why he didn't think of it sooner!Mo Qinghe's eyes were shining with scorching light: "It's you, you are..."

"I'm Hu Han." Yun Yang replied bluntly, and took out a small pistol from behind as if conjuring, pressed the bullets into the clip one by one, and installed a silencer on the barrel. The movements were smooth and familiar, While doing this, the corners of his lips always maintained a raised arc, turning a blind eye to the surprise of his senior brother.

After completing the last step, he held the gun and weighed it, as if he was getting used to its feel, then turned his head slightly to Mo Qinghe: "Brother Shi, you must be very strange, Zong Yi is also very used to it, he I knew that the Communist Party was infiltrating my side, but I didn't guess it was me."

After Yun Yang finished speaking, he poked his probe outside to observe Chen Zongyi's movements, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he sighed lightly.

Mo Qinghe re-examined Yunyang, not knowing whether to be surprised by getting a comrade at the most critical moment, or to reprimand his junior brother for his audacity. He never thought that when he stayed by Shen Peinan's side and fought alone for faith and love , on the same mahjong table, there is his comrade, and it is the junior brother he has always treated like a child!

Yes, he should have thought that in the current Hangzhou city, only Yun Yang can get the boat ticket by virtue of Chen Zongyi's ability to reach the sky. It is not a coincidence that Yun Yang reported to Shen's house in the middle of the night. Chen Zongyi always maintains a pessimistic attitude towards his feelings, defending himself too much... Mo Qinghe can't wait to knock his head off, he is like everyone else, coaxed by Yunyang's sweet and willful smile so that he loses his judgment, otherwise, he would have already lost his judgment. Should have thought of it!

He held Yunyang's hand and almost shouted: "Yunyang, we, and your brother Liu Chu, we are always together like when we were young...Yunyang, I'm so happy, I'm so happy!"

Hang Yunyang smiled and looked at his senior brother, but there was no joy in his eyes. It didn't take long before the barely maintained smile disappeared. He glanced at the entrance of the alley from the corner of his eye, and when he looked back, his beautiful face showed a bottomless The solemnity and dignity in his eyes almost made him shed tears.

Mo Qinghe hesitated. He looked at Yunyang's face, then turned back to look at the figure wandering in the distance, suddenly became conscious, and said hesitantly, "Yunyang, you... have no personal feelings for Mr. Chen, do you?"

Yun Yang didn't answer, he leaned against the wall, raised his head slightly, stared at Qingxue flying in mid-air, and said softly: "If you don't say something now, you probably won't have a chance."

The profuse falling snow stained his woolen windbreaker, was baked by body temperature, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.Yun Yang's speech was fast and his voice was very low. Mo Qinghe could only judge some words by looking at his mouth shape.

"Brother, I know you, and I know Shen Peinan's temper. We met at Master Shen's house the other day, and when I saw you enduring him like that, I began to suspect that you might have other purposes." He paused, "I Fearing that you would fall into Shen Peinan's trap, I asked the organization many times about your identity and wanted to respond to you sideways, but they refused to tell the truth. I doubted again and again, and I dispelled my doubts again and again. Last year you were detained for no reason. Let me know I have seventy-eight percent confidence..."

Mo Qinghe nodded silently. He understood that this was a strategy of the organization. Comrades who shared the same social circle or lurked in the same unit, sometimes even husband and wife, would not know each other's identities after they had known each other for several years, because once they knew each other The details of the other party are like bombs tied together. If someone is arrested and rebellious, the entire line will be wiped out.

"I went to the tavern to gather a crowd to make trouble. If my guess is correct, this is equivalent to informing the comrades that you have been exposed and must be transferred as soon as possible. Later, you and Liu Chu disappeared for no reason. It was rumored that Shen Peinan secretly executed you. I know not, senior brother, I know where you went!" Yun Yang laughed hoarsely, under the cover of the night, Mo Qinghe saw a layer of mist floating in his eyes, which was about to overflow the control of the embankment , he handed the gun to his left hand, slid slowly along the wall and sat down, and made a gesture towards Mo Qinghe.

"During the year in Peiping, I saw you getting better and better. The way you look at him, the way he looks at you... that can't be fooled, senior brother, you lurk beside him, but you love him, So stupid, you sold your heart to him!"

Mo Qinghe stared at his little junior brother dumbfounded, and Hang Yunyang also looked up at him. He was as comfortable holding the gun as if holding a round fan. His heavy eyelashes were covered with snowflakes, covering a pair of beautiful almond eyes. Cowardice was replaced by all determination and sorrow, and tears rolled down his face, but his expression was determined as if he wanted to die with that night!

"Yunyang!" Mo Qinghe jumped up, tried her best to suppress her emotions, and whispered: "No, no, it's too dangerous, you have to go immediately, let's go together!" Just as the words fell, there was a commotion outside the alley, The two people who were hiding in the shadow jumped up, covered each other's mouth almost at the same time, and listened vigilantly to the movement from the alley.

Chen Zongyi had already smoked countless cigarettes, and his leather shoes made the ground muddy. The first batch of military police who searched Shen's house came back, and every pocket on their body was filled with valuables stolen from Shen's house. With a smile on his face, but pretending to be serious, he reported the fact that they got nothing.Chen Zongyi paced faster, his face was ashen, and his eyes were frosty, as if he was making the most difficult decision in his life, he shouted to the military police: "Get out, leave the old lady Shen alone, go Find Master Hang for me, tell him, tell him it's my fault, I will listen to him, as long as he is willing to come back! As long as he comes back safely! "

Mo Qinghe turned his face away in surprise, and turned his gaze to Hang Yunyang. He saw the pretty melon-seeded face of the little junior brother was already full of tears, and his almond eyes were like a well shimmering in the moonlight. He held the gun tightly in his hand, infatuated and painful Staring intently at the anxious figure hovering at the entrance of the alley, his chest rose and fell sharply, as if there were countless warm words about to spew out, but his lips were pursed together, just like the oath they had made when they received the task: never From now on, you will remain silent forever.

Mo Qinghe understood everything from the deja vu expression. He grabbed Hang Yunyang's hand and tried to take the pistol away. Mouth to Mo Qinghe, or to accuse yourself: "You are stupid, you know that you will break up sooner or later, and you still give him your heart! Just because he treats you a little better, you are stupid!"

He hugged his junior brother's thin body, feeling him struggling and trembling silently in his arms, biting his shoulder hard, his nails drew a thin bloodstain on the back of his cheek, tears slipped into his cotton gown, if he hadn't been exhausted Confined with all his strength, he almost jumped up and fought with himself.

Mo Qinghe's hand rose and fell on Yunyang's back, comforting him in a low voice: "Yunyang, I know, I know everything."

The gendarmes set off again, and Chen Zongyi lit another cigarette. The dim light of the fire was the only source of warmth in the snowy night. Yun Yang controlled the trembling of his body, and said to Mo Qinghe: "There is one last task, Since I knew there was no way to stop Zongyi from communicating with the Japanese Army, this is the only task left for me!"

"Brother, I order you as a superior, no matter what you are about to see, don't come out until it is absolutely safe!"

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, Mo Qinghe strode after him, grabbed him, and said anxiously: "You wait here, let me go!"

He clasped Hang Yunyang's wrist, trying to force him to let go, but Yunyang's agility was no less than his. The two wrestled together silently, like two reckless wrestlers, each covered in mud and moss, and Mo Qinghe turned over one by one. , straddled Yun Yang, and locked his hands. He was deeply shocked by his junior brother's determination, but he couldn't tolerate Yun Yang performing such a task. of!

"I'll do it for you this time, senior brother didn't take good care of you, senior brother owes you!" Before Mo Qinghe finished speaking, Yun Yang bit his forearm hard, then turned over and jumped up, Twist his arm back and twist it backwards, only to hear the joints making a crisp sound, the severe pain made Mo Qinghe gasp, the muscles in the waist and abdomen loosened, and she lay on the ground.

"He sold Nanjing, Nanjing is hell." Hang Yunyang let go, and Lamo Qinghe got up, and said sadly: "Brother, I will clean up my mess myself."

He got up and walked out of the alley, stopped after walking a few steps, turned around and looked at Mo Qinghe across the darkness, the determination in his eyes seemed to be an eternal farewell, then he bowed his head in silence, wrung his hands like a child, and turned towards Mo Qinghe. Mo Qinghe walked over slowly, wrapped his arms around his back, and put his head in the arms of his senior brother.

Mo Qinghe knew that he couldn't stop him, so he stroked Yunyang's smooth cheek without saying a word. From his angle, Yunyang's side face was buried in his chest, only a white and straight bridge of the nose was exposed, black and white. Thick eyelashes hang down like silk tree leaves, covering the despair and fleeting enthusiasm in his eyes, which is the unique solemnity of those who sacrifice their lives.

"Senior brother, let me tell you a secret." Yun Yang raised his face, revealing a childish smile, "I was originally sent by the organization to Shen Peinan's side, but I spent more than half a year, tried my best, and still couldn't Gaining his trust, I was so mad, and later Zongyi extorted a large sum of money from him, and I used it all to buy diamonds."

"No one believes you can do it. Senior brother, you are really amazing."

As he said this, he winked at Mo Qinghe, wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeve, and resolutely left his embrace, patted the snow on his body, put the pistol in his back, and walked away. He strode towards the square piece of light.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, covering the city in war like a soft and white blanket. This is a rare heavy snow in the south. It is cold and solemn, fair and merciful, and all the sins of the world are judged and all the sufferings It is shaded, and all wounds are buried.In this endless snowfall, a large number of invaders wearing leather boots temporarily put down their bayonets outside the city and sang songs from their hometown. In the shadows, leaning against the cold courtyard wall behind him, he began a long and difficult wait.

He hoped that Yunyang could hold back his grief and get away successfully. While waiting, he pulled out the letterhead that Yunyang brought him from his sleeve. For a deeper metaphor, his hands kept shaking, almost tearing the letter paper, but no matter how he pieced together the few Chinese characters in the letter, he still couldn't guess the information in it.

What was written in the letter?Could it be the military information that Yun Yang got from Chen Zongyi?Mo Qinghe fiddled with those few pages impatiently, regretting that she didn't learn Japanese from Shen Peinan.

He heard Chen Zongyi calling Yun Yang's name in surprise, followed by Yun Yang's whisper, but he couldn't understand the content, Chen Zongyi's back footsteps, and a muffled gunshot covered by the silencer.

He heard the soft sound of clothes and shoes dragging and rubbing against the ground, Yun Yang was cleaning up the battle situation.At the same time, Mo Qinghe finally realized the strangeness of the letter paper in his hand. Compared with Chen Zongyi's sophistication and extravagance, the paper quality of this letter was too poor, so thin that it was almost transparent. The light projected from the mouth carefully inspected, when there was a slight deviation in the angle of the two pages, the light passed through the thin and fragile paper, and all the crooked lines suddenly had the correct destination.

Those are not Japanese characters, but radicals that have been carefully disassembled, and can be translated into a letter with a little misplacement. In order to deceive people, Japanese symbols and code words of underground organizations are added to the sentence. This is the oldest and most Direct encryption means!

The trembling of his hands rattled the paper, the light was dim, and he read very slowly. Just as he was trying to study these words, the shouts of military police came from outside the alley, followed by sporadic gunshots. Imagine what the younger brother looks like at this moment, hiding in the shelter of the street, like a hunter with a net, with tears in his eyes, and grief that is several times the limit of the human heart, but the hand holding the gun never trembles.

Someone fell, someone was attracted by the sound, which triggered more intense gunfire.

Mo Qinghe focused on the letter, and after reading it at a glance, he suddenly realized that this was not just a piece of information, but also a suicide note from his junior!

"Brother Shaoxuan, I sent you a letter late at night, and you may have seen through my identity. If you understand the content of the letter before dawn, remember not to come to me, let alone leave your friend without authorization, it will only Add unnecessary sacrifices, because I have already thought about what I did tonight."

"Since I left you at the age of 15 until now, the sufferings and twists and turns I have experienced far exceed your expectations, and I can't record them with paper and pen, but I know you can understand, you must understand! Our life is like a stage No matter how glamorous the stage is, the other half will always sink behind the heavy curtain, buried deeply and never see the light of day. Regarding my life, I can only say to you, brother, I am extremely happy I'm tired, too."

"Brother, from the day I made the oath, I am willing to do whatever it takes to avoid the intrusion of love in this life until I meet Zongyi. You can laugh at me or call me blind, but I love him, he Gave me the only light in my dark life. This love has nothing to do with the country, let alone parties and politics. It comes from humanity and warmth. I believe that regardless of the success or failure of the war, this ordinary love in the world Will decay in the dust with me and him, not be judged by the world, not faded by any disturbance.

"The love he gave me, I remember deeply, but I can't respond, because I can't be the only one in my heart, I love you and Mr. Shen, I love Liu Chu, and I love every numb and cowardly person in this land For Chinese people, the breadth and pain of this feeling prevents me from repaying Chen Zhiwan."

"The love and hate you feel, I have felt the same, the struggle you feel, I have struggled a thousand times, you have Mr. Shen as your soul mate, and I will walk alone in this life. My heart has already been given to you, my love It will end in death, and only this body will follow my lover to atone for the sins of eternal life."

"Brother, forgive me for saying goodbye to you hastily in this way. I have never been sad, and I hope you will not be sad for me. Please stay where you should stand. My soul will protect you. By your side, countless anonymous people protecting you with my life."

"Farewell, Senior Brother Shaoxuan. Sincerely, Junior Brother Hang Yunyang."

Mo Qinghe didn't read the last few words seriously at all, his tears flowed down uncontrollably, he didn't even realize that he was crying, he just felt his cheeks being blown cold by the wind, and reached out to touch them, Only then did he realize that tears were shed. He held those pages of thin paper tightly, and let the tears wet them drop by drop. His vision was wet and blurred. He saw new writings appearing on the wet pages. He didn't need to think about it to know that it was the information that Yun Yang got from Chen Zongyi.

This is their life, and even the suicide note must become a tool to convey information. Human life seems so humble at this moment, but also so vast.Mo Qinghe shoved the letter back into his sleeves with trembling hands, and scrambled towards the entrance of the alley. The gunshots outside had gradually subsided. He knew he couldn't go out, so he could only use his nails to dig the old brick wall. The gap between the nails was filled with soil, and blood seeped out again. He poked his head out a little and looked out, only to feel his heart beating like a drum, and every sound of swallowing saliva formed a huge roar.

The square light at the entrance of the alley had no one standing there, Luoxue was trampled into mud by countless hasty feet, Chen Zongyi was lying in a pool of blood with a blood hole in his chest, the gurgling blood was like a It was as thick and dark as ink, he stretched out his arms, his body was arranged into a big character, and he opened his eyes quietly.

Around him, many gendarmes in black uniforms lay in disorder, all of them were silent.There was heavy snow like goose feathers floating in the sky, and it kept falling one after another. The snow made the surroundings look clean and quiet. Hang Yunyang stood quietly in the middle of the road, leaving Mo Qinghe with a beautiful back.

There were voices in the distance again, someone was yelling, footsteps were chaotic and noisy, and a group of people shouted passwords and ran towards this side.

Yun Yang turned around slowly, walked towards Chen Zongyi's body step by step, knelt beside him, and gently closed his eyes for his lover.Then he stood up, looked at the direction where Mo Qinghe was hiding, and showed a childish and sweet smile.

Mo Qinghe's eyes widened, she clutched her chest and panted heavily, leaning back against the wall, almost slumped down.

However, he still tried his best to stand, tried his best to play the role of the only audience in this ending, he also began to smile, covering his mouth with his hands, while suppressing the convulsions of his body and the roar of a beast that was about to burst forth, he smiled at Yun Yang , Tears flowed down like a broken thread, his eyes were soaked in tears, staring intently at his little junior, at his beautiful figure and sincere eyes, at the last stage and curtain call in his life.

Under Mo Qinghe's gaze and smile, Yun Yang raised the gun, aimed at his temple, and lightly pulled the trigger.

With a bang, Yun Yang's body was like a paper harrier with a broken thread. It stopped slightly for a few times, and then fell down soundlessly, lying soundlessly in a piece of unpolluted snow.
