I'm sorry readers, but there are words in section 55 that need to be reviewed, so it can't be passed for a long time - since the upload of "The Red Age", because of the special epochal nature of the story, it has been repeatedly taboo! It makes me big, too.

When I say this here, I am not in any way seeking sympathy and forgiveness, but merely stating a fact to the reader.

So far, there is no hope of signing a contract for the book, and it is likely that this will be the case in the future. For this reason, I will suspend my subsequent writing and use the manuscript as the basis for the next text upload - readers can continue to collect it, I have a lot of manuscripts in storage - and it will not be a problem to continue publishing at the current rate of two sections a day, and it will not be a problem to stick to it until the beginning of November.

Finally, about rewarding, the support and encouragement of many friends, and even the consumption of money, really moved and appreciated by the author. But here, I hope that readers and friends still don't have to tip. Many of your messages and recommendations have been the motivation for me to continue to walk!

Cao Xun didn't get up until dawn the next day, his mouth was greasy, and he groaned, "Get up...... Finish? Drink some...... Water, right? ”

"What time is it?"

"Ten ten...... Dot. ”

"I didn't go to the bar yesterday?" Cao Xun had a splitting headache, moved in the quilt, and took the water cup, "Lu Li? ”

"Huh? Ah, no ......, no. ”

Cao Xun raised his body to take a look, grabbed his clothes, and took out a box of cigarettes from it, without washing his face or brushing his teeth, he lit one like this and smoked, "Lu Li, I remembered, you...... I ask you, did you let me yesterday? ”

"Huh?"

"It's drinking, don't think I'm drinking too much, I'm drunk, I can see it. Oops, I have a headache. ”

Lu Li didn't want to explain much, and deliberately diverted the topic, "Right...... up, in ...... I'm ...... How many days will you stay? Come back...... It's the New Year, and we're ...... A piece of back to heaven...... Saliva. ”

"Okay, I didn't think about going back, it's too cold, how hard is it to run back and forth? Oh......" he fumbled into his pocket, pulling out two sticks of unity and a few food stamps, "this is for you, I'm a partner." ”

Lu Li thought about it, and there was no need to be polite to him, "Lu Li, get something to eat?" Cao Xun threw away the cigarette butt, got up and dressed, and said, "Really, you have had a lot of ideas since you were a child, and you want to make a point?" How many improvements do you give your brother? ”

"I ...... Think about it...... Target. Cao Xun's words reminded Lu Li, yes, except for tasting a little mutton on the 11th National Day, everyone has not even touched a little meat in the past four months, remembering that when he was in Tian (Tianjin), although the days were not rich, but every day he can always clip a thin piece of meat in the stir-fry, now think about it, it is already a great enjoyment!

Steamed the leftover cabbage from yesterday in the pot, and had breakfast with the stick noodles, Lu Li, Xu Yunjian, Zhang Qing, Cao Xun and a few educated youths from Leizhuang sat together, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, what's wrong today?" How is it listless? ”

"......No," he said, putting down the dishes and chopsticks, "wait a minute...... You guys...... Fix...... Come, I'll go out. ”

"Why are you going? Where can I find you? ”

"I ...... Go to the brigade...... Clerk's house. ”

Xu Yunjian quickly stuffed a mouthful of dumplings into his mouth, and said vaguely: "I'm done, I'll go with you, Xiaoxiao, wait for me?" ”

His movements were fast, and Zhang Qing was not slow, so he pulled him back, "You don't come to this set, Xu Yunjian, do you want to hide from washing dishes?" I washed it yesterday, and it's your turn today. ”

"Let Cao Xun wash it?"

"You don't have a heart, huh? People are guests! The pair of living treasures were making a big noise, and Lu Li walked away.

Lu Li came out of the educated youth point, bypassed the entrance of the brigade department, not far from Shang Kang's house, the morning sun was bright and bright, through the window, you could see Shang Kang sitting cross-legged on the kang, smoking a cigarette, talking to people, "Shang ...... Clerk? ”

"It's Xiao Lu, right?" Shang Kang turned his head to see it, smiled and beckoned, "Auntie...... Aunt ....... ”

"Little Lu? Come in, come in, how do you think of your aunt today? What are you doing with your shoes? The house is not so clean! ”

"Auntie...... Son, do it at home...... Net, I always want to learn ...... from you, but you ...... You know, a few of us kids...... Living in a ......, sometimes I can't take care of it. ”

Aunt Shang was full of smiles, like her husband, she liked this detail-oriented and polite child very much, took his hand into the house, grabbed a handful of peanuts and stuffed them into her hands, "Cold, right?" Today? ”

"Also...... Good. Lu Li entered the house and found that it was his nephew, Shang Jiajiang, the captain of the merchant forest militia, who was talking to Shang Anti-Japanese; He is actually the son of the eldest brother in the clan, and he passed on to the old head of Shang Lin, that is, the old Red Army merchant Shiying who participated in the Long March, as his grandson. "Fourth uncle, grandpa said, I don't want it this year."

"What? New Year's greetings to the sixth uncle, how many years has this been the rule, how can you say that you don't want the big guy to go? ”

"Grandpa said that he is not in particularly good health, and besides, isn't there such a thing this year? Grandpa said forget it. ”

Shang Kang thought about it and understood what he meant, this refers to a fight with the educated youth, and even caused a death, "Then, wait a few days, I will persuade the sixth uncle, the New Year, he is an old man......"

"Okay," Shang Jia nodded to Lu Li, grinning, revealing a mouthful of tetracycline teeth, "Xiao Lu, something?" ”

"Eh, sort of... Affair... Find a secretary. "Lu Li knew the relationship between them, and without waiting for Shang Jia to leave, he told the matter first," the secretary ...... Fast...... It's the New Year, we, the educated youth...... There is that near...... It's time to go home, too, and before I go I thought, well, to the village...... Big Guy Improvement Improvement? ”

"Huh? What improvements? ”

"Get some fish, big guy?"

"Why are you here again? Little Lu, didn't I say that? These fish ......"

"You listen to me......" Lu Li's eyes were sharp, and he immediately noticed the abnormality in Shang Jiajiang's expression, which let him know that the other party was a potential supporter of his own, "I think so, I ...... Take someone to get it, and you will pretend to ...... I don't know, when the fish comes, you and ...... I took the car to town...... Once, put the hatred book...... Remember to come, let's be lively and lively...... ”

"No, Xiao Lu, I can tell you, your thinking is very dangerous, you are a bourgeois, greedy lifestyle for enjoyment, just a few months after arriving at the Zhiqing Point, you can't endure hardship? No way! I disagree. ”

"Are you making trouble?" Aunt Shang glared at her husband and reprimanded him an octave higher than her husband's voice, "What did Xiao Lu say?" Isn't this here to ask you? A group of children have abandoned their homes and businesses here, and you are not pitiful, why do you show that you are fierce? ”

Lu Li pursed his lips and nodded slowly, "That'...... Well, I'm leaving. ”

Shang Jiajiang also got up and said goodbye, and walked a few steps to the door, "Xiao Lu? ”

"Huh?"

"What are you going to do? Do you really want to get it? ”

“…………”

"Don't worry, I won't beat your little report at Fourth Uncle, but,...... Little Lu, is it really okay? Aren't you afraid that someone will ask? ”

Luley smiled, "You...... Can I contact ...... Qiu Shu...... Remember? Can you ask him when he has time, once a year ago? ”

Shang Jia smiled thoughtfully, "What are you doing, Xiao Lu, are you still thinking about letting Secretary Qiu come over?" ”

"If you can be sure, I'm ...... Get to work right away. ”

"Okay, wait for my news."

Five days later, Shang Jia came to Lu Li and whispered a few words to him, "Really? ”

"Really, it seems that it is for the matter of the educated youth who are fighting, he first came to send these people back, and secondly, to hold a meeting in the merchant forest, and the secretaries of several brigades are coming, and I heard that Director Li of the county revolutionary committee is also present."

Lu Li laughed, learned the Tangshan accent and said, "Okay...... Finish! ”

Shang Jiajiang also smiled, "Okay, you're learning fast enough." After making a joke, he said, "Xiao Lu, you have to think about this matter, it's not a joke." ”

"Scared? This is the ...... ...... of the mouth Stuff, I'm ...... again No...... Is it stealing...... Got me for myself? Rest assured! By the way, what time did they arrive? ”

"December 13th, why do you need me, you speak?"

"Give...... How many ...... I have Individual. ”

Shang Jia will be a little unclear So, he knows very well that in the past few months, Lu Li's appeal among the educated youth, as long as he opens his mouth, thirty or fifty young men can be obtained, so many people are not enough? "Okay, how many?"

********************************************

On December 11, two days before the arrival of participants from other neighboring towns, Lu Li took Xu Yunjian, Zhang Qing, Cao Xun, Luo Yaohua, Lin Yanxiu, Li Haijun and others out of the village, and arrived at the Luan River in the east.

"It's so cold...... Xiaoxiao, this day is the river? Aren't you afraid of getting sick from the cold? ”

In addition to the educated youths from Tian (Tianjin), there were also several people from the village militia team, all of whom were natives of Shanglin, looking at the river that had not yet frozen, it was also a black line, "Comrade Xiao Lu, can you find a boat?" People can't stand going into the water in such weather? ”

Lu Li didn't say a word, looking at the river, Cao Xun knew his temperament and guessed what he was thinking, but the people next to him didn't know, hugging the padded jacket on his body on the side, and whispering, "Brother Li?" Everyone is waiting for you. ”

Lu Li felt a little regretful, the water quality of the Luan River is excellent, and there is no artificial pollution, in autumn, you can also see a large number of wild ducks and water birds in the reeds by the river, and wild duck eggs and bird eggs are everywhere! It's a pity that the weather is getting colder, migratory birds are flying south, these things are now invisible, and I can only wait for the next year; Hearing Zhang Qing's words, he untied his padded jacket without saying a word, and after a while, he took off his essence, picked up the wine jug he was carrying, poured a sip, and then walked to the river, sprinkled urine into the river, scooped up a little urine with his hand, wiped it on himself, and walked into the water like this.

Xu Yunjian suddenly remembered, Lu Li doesn't know how to water! Three or two took off their clothes and chased after them, "Xiaoxiao, don't go forward, you can't swim?" One step into the water, he froze his whole body with goosebumps, and even the scrotum tightened, "I'm cao!" It's cold! ”

In fact, the temperature in the water is higher than expected, especially after the body is completely immersed in the water, the feeling is even more obvious, Luli feels almost, his feet step on the soft sand in the water, to the side, not a few steps, is a river on the bay, the water here is not deep, forming a small ditch, there are a large number of reeds on the water, in the other three seasons, this is simply a huge fish nest.

The further you go, the shallower the water surface becomes, and after a while, half of Lu Li's body has been exposed above the water surface, the cold wind blows, giving birth to layers of goosebumps, Zhang Qing holds a copy net and basin in his hands, and also goes into the water, the sound of rushing water sounds, Lu Li turned his head and glanced at it, baring his teeth and laughing, "Just ...... This. ”

"Xiaoxiao," Xu Yunjian squatted down as much as he could, burying his body in the water, leaving only a dead man's head on the water, "How do you get it?" Directly off the net? ”

Luli looked left and right, stretched out his hand to estimate the water, and finally affirmed the direction of the current. began to command: let Xu Yunjian and Zhang Qing build a dam in the place of Shangshui, Cao Xun, Jay Chou, and Wang Xiyu (that is, the educated youth in northern Shaanxi) went to the shore and broke some branches and reeds, and then came back to work with him shoulder to shoulder.

Xu Yunjian and Zhang Qing built a dam made of mud after a while, and the top of the dam slowly approached the water. Luli bent down again, held his breath under the water, and propped up the branches and reeds like a magpie's nest, and made a hole under the mud dam, and then beckoned the militia on the shore to bring the nets. He Cao Xun carefully put the net on the side of the mud dam near the launch, and used ropes on both sides to find small trees on the bank of the ditch and tie them up, and then straightened up with satisfaction.

"Tiny, that's it?"

"Fish...... Food. ”

Someone handed over the fish food prepared in advance, and in the bag was the stick noodles that had been mixed yesterday, and a few drops of sesame oil begged from the Shang lady's house were poured on it, and it smelled fragrant.

Luli took a handful and sprinkled it evenly on the surface of the nearby water, and the golden grains were densely spread on the turquoise and rippling river, and after a short pause, they were soaked in the water and slowly sank. Seeing that it was almost over, Lu Li beckoned, led the team to the shore, took the military coat and wrapped it around his body, and shivered coldly, "Lu Li...... CNM, you're really lacking in heart,"

Cao Xun stomped his feet and cursed, "Why do you have to go down to the river on this day?" ”

"CNM," Xu Yunjian scolded back without hesitation, "Isn't this what you said, do you want to give you a few forced improvements?" ”

Cao Xun smiled and ignored him anymore.

The early winter sun is about to hang on the top of his head, the sun is sprinkled on his body, he doesn't feel warm at all, standing in this open field on all sides, the northwest is blowing with a trace of water vapor, and it doesn't take long to break the cotton clothes, Lu Li is not afraid of the cold and is a little better, everyone else is hunched and stomped non-stop, "Xiaoxiao, almost, right?" What time does this have to wait? ”

Lu Li walked to the place where he had just gone under the net, stripped into the water, and dragged the rope hanging on the branches on the shore with his hand, dead and heavy, this time, he smiled rarely, beckoned to everyone on the shore, Cao Xun was the first to jump to him, and asked excitedly: "Is there one?" Have it? ”

"Put the word '?'...... Go! Luli said with some eyebrows fluttering.

"Really? Ha ha! Cao Xun happily grabbed the other end of the rope and carried it: "I'm cao, it's really heavy!" ”

"Tight...... Collect, receive! ”

"Okay!"

Cao Xun agreed, and Xu Yunjian shouted the number in his mouth to pull the net up. The more the net was retracted, the heavier it became, and the fish inside were still jumping around, and in the air close to zero degrees, clouds of white mist were rising! The fish struggled desperately in the net, pulling the net so trembling that it almost broke off its hand several times.

The militia on the shore also became excited when they saw that there was a bargain to be picked up, and everyone reached out together, and finally pulled a net full of fish to the shore. The fish, big and small, were all strong and fat, jumping up and falling from time to time, one after another, showing a vigorous vitality. Under the bright sunlight, the sparkling scales are particularly dazzling.

Lu Li glanced at it, and there were many kinds of fish from the net, including grass carp, carp, silver carp, fat head, crucian carp, and almost all freshwater raw fish that could be named, and the number was around three or five hundred, "in barrels...... Above...... Cart. ”

"Okay." Before coming, the people brought the iron buckets used to carry water at home and a large cart, and loaded the fish one after another, and the two militiamen pushed the cart and walked towards the village humming a song.
