Siheyuan: A pioneer of morality

When Zhou Jianjun walked outside the yard, he suddenly took out two pheasants like a magic trick and held them in his hands, then pushed open the gate and walked in.

"Boss, you're back!"

Seeing Zhou Jianjun return safely, Liu Yulan immediately showed a sweet smile on her face.

"You also brought back good things!"

Zhou Jianjun shook the two pheasants in his hand, winking at Yulan and teasing.

"You can come back safely better than anything else."

Liu Yulan subconsciously twisted her hands together and responded shyly. For her, nothing is more important than Zhou Jianjun now.

"Send this pheasant to your father, so that your mother and your brother can improve their meals at night." Zhou Jianjun said, and handed a pheasant to Yulan.

Without waiting for Yulan to speak, he continued, "Call your father over, I'll have a drink with him tonight, I just have something to tell him."

"Okay."

Liu Yulan responded, took the pheasant, and carried it out the door.

Zhou Jianjun sat in the room and waited for a while, and then Village Chief Liu and Yulan came back.

"Yulan, go cook first. I'll talk to Jianjun."

"Then you guys chat first. I'll go to the kitchen to cook."

After Liu Yulan left, Village Chief Liu frowned and scolded Zhou Jianjun: "Boy, did you go into the mountains again? You want my daughter to be a widow again!"

Feeling the unkindness in Village Chief Liu's tone, Zhou Jianjun raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Uncle, how did you know I went into the mountains? Did you send someone to follow me?"

Village Chief Liu glanced at Zhou Jianjun with his eyes slanted, and then said unhappily: "I'm busy with farm work in the fields, how can I have the time to follow you."

Hearing what Village Chief Liu said, Zhou Jianjun became even more curious.

"Then how did you know?"

"From the pheasant you brought back." Village Chief Liu said, and then he looked up and saw Zhou Jianjun still looking puzzled, so he continued to explain: "This kind of pheasant has long been seen outside the forest, and can only be found in the deep mountains."

"Is that so!" Zhou Jianjun suddenly realized.

He just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he heard Village Chief Liu whispered: "Don't run into the deep mountains next time, so as not to worry Yulan."

"Don't worry, I didn't tell her." Zhou Jianjun responded with a grin.

"That won't work either. Who knows what's in the deep mountains? What if we encounter wild beasts!"

Hearing what Village Chief Liu said, Zhou Jianjun immediately thought of the leopard in his mind.

He hurriedly said: "Uncle, you are right, there are really wild beasts in the mountains."

"What's wrong? Did you meet one?"

Hearing what Village Chief Liu said, a worried look immediately appeared on his face.

Seeing that he cared so much about him, Zhou Jianjun was very relieved. "People nowadays are still simple and honest, unlike later generations. Many people are ungrateful no matter how you feed them."

"I encountered a leopard, but it ran too fast and I didn't catch up."

Zhou Jianjun said nonchalantly.

"Leopard?" Village Chief Liu exclaimed first, then looked Zhou Jianjun up and down and asked, "Are you crazy? Others are afraid of running away, but you still chase them?"

Zhou Jianjun smiled and didn't explain. If the old man knew that he wanted to compete with the leopard in speed, he would tear his head off.

Seeing Zhou Jianjun didn't speak, Village Chief Liu showed a cautious look and warned: "Don't run into the mountains again in the future, it's too dangerous."

At this point, he seemed to remember something and said to himself: "It seems that I have to bring more people and weapons when I go into the mountains in a few days."

The two were silent for a moment, and Zhou Jianjun asked about what he was thinking about.

"Uncle, when we used to have a 'little life' here, how many people were there in this area?"

Hearing this, Village Chief Liu glanced at Zhou Jianjun curiously, and then asked: "Why are you asking this?"

"Tell me about it, I'm just curious, just to kill time."

"Okay, anyway, there's nothing to say."

Village Chief Liu nodded indifferently, and then began to narrate that difficult period.

As Village Chief Liu told the story, Zhou Jianjun gradually guessed in his heart why there was such a "weapons depot" in the mountains.

It turned out that the geographical location of Liujiazhuang was quite special.

If the "little people" from the north pass go to Sijiucheng, they basically have to pass by Liujiazhuang.

The previous village chief of Liujiazhuang, Liu Yulan's grandfather, saw that the situation was not good and directly ordered the villagers to be dispersed to Qinjia Village and Xiaowangzhuang.

It was at that time that the three villages had a closer relationship.

Despite the old village chief's arrangement, many villagers still died in "XiaoIn order to avenge those villagers, the people of the three villages organized themselves and attacked the passing "Xiao Ri Zi" several times. However, the firepower configuration of "Xiao Ri Zi" was not something that these villagers holding farm tools could resist. After several times, not only did they not cause any actual damage to "Xiao Ri Zi", but they themselves lost many people. The three village chiefs saw that things were impossible, and finally had to swallow their anger and chose to lead everyone to hide. It was precisely because of this decision made by the three of them that the three villages were saved. The other villages nearby were almost slaughtered by "Xiao Ri Zi". When Zhou Jianjun heard the record of that period of history again, he still felt endless anger in his heart. "Damn beasts, they deserved to be dealt with by "Little Boy" and "Fatty". " Zhou Jianjun couldn't help cursing, but then he thought of those things in later generations who "forgot their ancestors". "People's hearts are not the same as before! "Zhou Jianjun could only sigh silently in his heart.

Seeing Zhou Jianjun's sad face, Village Chief Liu sighed and comforted him: "Fortunately we won, otherwise, who knows what the world would become."

After comforting him, Village Chief Liu asked curiously: "Jianjun, why did you think of asking these things?"

"Nothing, nothing, just curiosity. "Zhou Jianjun explained with an awkward smile.

After listening to the narration of Village Chief Liu, he had roughly figured out why "Xiao Rizi" dug a cave to store weapons at that location.

It can be used for attack or defense, and the location is very secret.

"Xiao Rizi" does know how to choose a place.

I just don't know why they didn't reveal the location of the arsenal after surrendering.

Could it be that "Xiao Rizi" has other intentions?

Forget it, no matter what other intentions they have, it's useless anyway.

Zhou Jianjun looted everything, and even if "Xiao Rizi" wanted to do something bad, they didn't have the right weapons.

When Liu Yulan brought the food to the table, the two had regained their composure.

They chatted about some irrelevant things, and Zhou Jianjun was basically talking and Village Chief Liu was listening.

When Village Chief Liu heard Zhou Jianjun say that the situation might be more severe in the next few years, he was so worried that he sucked his teeth.

Village Chief Liu held it in for a long time before saying, "More severe? Are they going to starve to death? "

"Who knows?" Zhou Jianjun responded calmly.
