Chapter 10: The Disaster of War Horses in the Past of the Republic of China 2
The gate building of the church hospital is built like a single sign, that is, there is a horizontal and vertical cross shelf on the top of the point, and when I was a child, I heard that it was the style of the shelf where their grandfather was tied to death. Next to the main gate is the shop, and the circle is full of it, and the three floors behind it are probably the building of the church hospital.
At the corner between the shop on the back wall and the main building, Li Jinshi stood with his back against the corner. There was no one on the street anymore, and he put his ear to the wall of the main building, calming down, focusing on the sound behind the wall. I don't know if it's because the people in the hospital are sleeping or if the walls are thick and you can't hear. Generally, Li Jinshi can still hear the sound of the eight-inch brick wall. Li Jinshi has been practicing since he was five or six years old, and now although he is not as good as the master, he can also break through according to the master's judgment.
It took another moment. I didn't go to the church hospital, and even seven or eight years ago, I just looked at the door and listened to the master's casual remarks. I don't understand the situation inside, and it takes time to find medicine, so I have to leave enough time for myself, otherwise it will be even more difficult to come back if I can't get medicine after tossing once. Along the angle, with both hands and legs propped up, rubbed and went up. It's much easier than a straight wall.
Standing on the roof of the shop, there are still five or six meters from the vents of the main building. There is a runner on the flat ground, and he can catch the cicada up in eight steps, but this is the roof, the roof with slopes on both sides, he can't run, and he can't reach five or six meters on the ground. Fortunately, the main building of the church hospital is a building with a sloped roof, and all the corners are slopes and ridges. Li Jinshi leaned against the wall of the main building, went to the inner side of the courtyard along the top slope of the store, and when he was about to reach the eaves, he bent his knees and kicked again, and the moment his body rose up, he turned in the air, faced the main building again, stretched out his arms and buckled his fingers, and grabbed the eaves of the slope perpendicular to the ridge of the main building. Flipping hands, exchanging, approaching the eaves of the main building several times back and forth, with his head and feet, his feet hooking the eaves, inserting a finger knife into the window crack and picking it open briskly, and people also entered instantly.
The first room you enter is on the third floor, with a row of shelves against the wall, and a layer of packages neatly placed on the shelves. I don't understand. Then I poked open every room along the entire floor, and the more I looked, the more anxious I became, but fortunately I was prepared, and the whole floor was a waste of time. It's all a mess of things, twisted and turned, and there is no cabinet for medicine.
At this moment, he was bold in his heart, and went down the stairs. You still have to try not to make a sound, after all, the ground is unfamiliar. Once again, I started in the first room, and when I opened the third room, I finally saw the medicine cabinet. The cabinet is made of wood and has glass embedded in it, so that you can see the contents of the cabinet.
At this time, Li Jinshi was worried, there were many small glass bottles in the cabinet, all of which still had lids, and he could see that they were all tablets, but he didn't know that it was aspirin. He took out the cloth bag from his bosom and left it alone. Then he took all the medicine in the cabinet away.
When Li Jinshi came back, San'er was still insisting on touching his second brother's forehead and wiping his body. Feng Jinfei had already woken up, although he was still burning, he was a little refreshed, and he kept persuading the third child not to wipe it and let him sleep. "The doctor will let you wipe it", "Big brother let me take care of you" Anyway, these are two sentences. In fact, Zhao Jincheng is really immortal, but he is afraid. Since he escaped from Tangshan, he has always been afraid, first afraid that his brothers would throw him down, and then he was afraid that people would see him when he sold his craft, and then he was afraid of blood, afraid of death, and then afraid that his second brother would not be cured. He is not like his two elder brothers, it is nothing to follow the master at his age, even running away from the master feels like playing.
"Big brother", the second and third children, shouted when they saw Li Jin come in.
"Second child, do you know Yangwen?"
"I know a few people, and I can say a few words. You know Master even speaks Japanese. Don't you know a few words of Japanese?"
"No, I'm not speaking Japanese, or the kind of foreign language that is ghostly drawn. Look. Li Jinshi took out the small cloth bag stuffed in his chest. "The doctor said, what kind of aspirin do you use, it works quickly. I didn't know it, so I filled the cupboard with all the medicines. ”
"You went to the church hospital?"
"Well, there's aspirin right there. ”
"Took all the medicine in the cupboard?"
"Hmm" Listening to the second child's words, Li Jinshi remembered that his master was injured, and he also went to buy medicine. It's a bit out of line. "Second child, should it be okay?"
"It should be fine, you've taken it all, there are too many diseases that can be cured, and they don't have a goal. Feng Jinfei picked up the glass bottles one by one, looked at them and put them down. Finally opened the lid of a bottle, poured out two small white pieces and stuffed them into his mouth, choking in anxiety for a while. Fortunately, the doctor told the third child to prepare some warm water, and the patient woke up to drink it before sending the pills. This is also teary-eyed.
"Big brother, these medicines are worth more than those war horses!"
"Don't say it's worth it or not, just cure you. Li Jinshi regretted that he knew the mixed three sects and nine streams in Tangshan at the beginning, but now he doesn't understand anything fashionable. "Let's all sleep for a while!"
The next day, the doctor came to see, and praised Feng Jinfei for his good physique, and then talked about the original meaning of national arts, and then rose to Yan Zhao since ancient times, and he always recalled that Huo Daxia told Li Jinshi that he needed to draw all the carrion, use muscle-building jade red ointment, and then bandage it, and it would be effective in three or five days.
Feng Jinfei endured and asked the doctor to scrape the carrion, but in fact, it was not much, originally he was just grazed by the bullet, and he did not hurt his muscles and bones, otherwise he would not have walked from Tianjin to the nunnery twice.
At this moment, Li Jinshi looked at the horse, and stuffed a pile of fiat currency to the guy, asking him to help more. He also said that he was not familiar with the city, so he asked him to help buy a few clothes, mainly short shirts, and then stuffed money. He always felt that there was a hidden worry, and he didn't know if it was a war horse or Western medicine.
For three or five days, none of the brothers went out, and their hearts were not steady. If there is something, let the guys help, and then the guys from the pharmacy come every day to ask if they need help. He doesn't care about fiat currency, he thinks that this thing is useless if he leaves Hebei, but the guy lives in Tianjin, this is money, and it can be used for silver dollars.
On the morning of the eighth day, when the doctor opened it yesterday, he could already see signs of a long patch. The guy came in and said that he was looking for someone in the city, as if something had happened, and he was interrogated when he came to the medicine hall in the morning.
The guy saw that there was nothing to help and left. Brother annoyed. It shouldn't be, just a few bottles of medicine, and it's been seven or eight days. The brother stared wide-eyed, unable to understand. Supposedly, if it were because the church hospital should have started arresting people earlier, foreigners are not so easy to fool.
"Tell the old man, young man, you... Are you a war horse?" asked the old doctor.
"It's tired, let's leave immediately!" Li Jinshi understood at this time, it seemed that it was a war horse, and someone coveted a war horse. It's not a big problem, it's all a big deal, and you can't give birth to them again.
"Heal your injuries before leaving, but you have to deal with it, don't bother the medicine hall. Alas...... "I'm going to leave after that."
"Uncle, can you tell me what's going on?" Feng Jinfei felt that something was wrong, it didn't look like he was greedy for war horses and afraid of being implicated.
"These horses are Japanese. I heard that there was a man who bought a war horse and gave it to an officer, and the war horse had an obvious mark, and it happened to be seen by a Japanese Dazuo, this horse turned out to be Dasa's, and last time the Kwantung Army came over a few people, there was a good horse, and Dazuo exchanged it. I started looking for someone. ”
"Found it?"
"I found five, and they all said that they were sold to them by a young descendant. At this time, the streets are full of young students. I heard that the Japanese suspected that they had killed six officers and soldiers of the Kwantung Army, and there was an interpreter. It's the whole city. Alas...... This is still my own city!" the old doctor shook his head and went out. This is a man who understands.
It was the Japanese who were killed, but I didn't hear it clearly at the time and thought it was the sound of rain, but it turned out to be Japanese.
"When they walked in, they didn't speak Japanese, nor did they speak pure Tohoku dialect. The tone has a northeastern flavor. ”
"That's it. Kwantung Army... Hey..."The brother didn't worry about the current tense, it's a big deal. I really don't believe that the soldiers and horses in Hebei in the past few years can stop them. Craftsmanship is not suitable for hard breaking, but small melee kung fu is easier to escape. The brother was even happier to be able to kill the Japanese. Since the master's accident, they have hated the Japanese, and they feel that if it weren't for the Japanese, the master would not have fallen into it. Even Zhao Jincheng is the same.
In the middle of the night, Li Jinshi was still ready to deal with the war horses in the yard, they were not afraid but they couldn't affect the life-saving benefactor. I consulted the old doctor about the smell of those herbs, so I paid for a large bag of mint and wormwood and other cheap ones. Then he chewed his head immediately, blindfolded him, wrapped his hooves, and quietly went out through the back door, sprinkling medicinal foam all the way, and going around several circles. I've heard that the old horse knows the way, but I don't know why, so I can think of everything I can think of to prevent it. When he was about to get lost, Li Jinshi walked back, and waited on the way back for a while, but the horse did not come back. I came back with confidence.
It took about another seven or eight days, and Feng Jinfei was really good, no different from before the injury. The elder brother was also preparing to leave, and originally wanted to stay in Tianjin for a while, after all, this was close to Beiping, so he could inquire more about the master's news. But now it is estimated that it will not be done, the war horse is not over, Jinfei is a real face transaction, and he may not be able to meet it. Cangzhou and Baoding, in the end, Baoding was decided, after all, the master's matter has not yet been confirmed, I still hope that the master will be fine, and they will meet closer.
The Japanese found all the horses, and went to the nunnery, and found out the man who was guarding the city gate. Hurry up!!!
"Yakudo...?"
"Don't worry, it's the provincial chairman's own family. Let's go!"
Even if he had been preparing to escape, he was a little hasty at this time, and he relaxed his mind seven or eight days earlier. People always have expectations of what if, especially for the good.
Out the back door, the front yard seemed to have heard the sound of scolding and justification. If the name of the chairman of the provincial government is not followed by the Japanese, it can be pushed away, and it is inevitable that the Japanese will come in and search for him. Li Jinshi was still picking a stool, Feng Jinfei was carrying some luggage, and the brothers and sisters went into the crowd separately as soon as they went out, not far apart, and they didn't lose their care.
The person and place were determined, and the interrogation in the city was removed. At this time, one is around the medicine hall, the other is the city gate, and the east city gate should be the focus of attention. The brothers have been hanging around the West City Gate for a long time, and they have no chance to get out of the city.
Looking at a mule cart slowly coming in the distance, I don't know if it was coming to the city to deliver goods or what, anyway, the mule cart board was empty. The brothers looked at each other and nodded, they were all discussed.
When there were still three or four cars long from the city gate tower, Zhao Jincheng stumbled towards the mule cart, a teenager, thinking that the mule cart was going to hit the child. At the moment when he approached the back of the mule, Zhao Jincheng tapped the mule with his fingertips, as if he wanted to use this blow to avoid the mule cart. But when he saw that the mule was mad, he did not listen to the handlebar shouting, and went straight to the city gate. At this time, Zhao Jincheng was already lying on the mule board, sticking to the board, his fingers clasped the gap between the back plates, and he looked up.
For a time, the city gate tower was in chaos, and the sergeants who were checking did not know whether to block people or mule carts. No one noticed the mule cart screaming as it fell to the ground, and no one noticed that there was a child on the mule cart. At the same time, Li Jinshi instantly threw the stool on the mule cart, and Feng Jinfei also threw his luggage to Zhao Jincheng, and jumped over the sergeant from both sides of the city gate tower on both sides of the city wall, bumped into or dodged the crowd, and ran out of the city! The sergeant's attention was finally attracted by the two brothers, and the mule cart did not care, but whistled and chased after the man with a gun.
The frightened mule is no longer a mule, and it can't run as fast as a horse, but after all, it is faster than a man. Soon overtook the dodging crowd and walked out of the city gate. The Great Plains of Hebei is not good at this, it is empty outside the city gate, and there is no cover. Li Jinshi and Feng Jin could only run when they flew out of the city gate, and they could hear the sound of pulling the bolt behind them. Fortunately, the mule cart came out in time, and the two brothers got up, jumped on the mule cart board, and then lay down, stretched out their arms and pressed Zhao Jincheng on the board, and the two of them also clinged to the board.
When the gunshots rang out from behind, it may have hit the mule, and the mule cart got faster and faster! Don't look at the fact that the mule is useless, and if you get angry, you will go crazy, and if you go crazy, you may not be able to compare with the horse.
