Chapter Twenty-Three: The Mysterious Jailer
Qin Ruiming had already noticed this person at this time, he was wearing the military uniform of the puppet army, standing at the door, his expression was solemn but not nervous, and the whole person gave people a feeling of confidence. Qin Ruiming carefully looked at this person's appearance, only to find that he was a descendant of a fellow villager, who had seen him before, but he didn't know what his name was. Now there are frequent wars, and many people in villages have fled for refuge, and many people have fled here, so I don't know where this person came from.
Qin Ruiming also said flatly: "Master Jun, you are quite well-informed, but what does the matter of the Seven Spirits Scattering have to do with you?" ”
The man sneered outside the iron gate of the prison: "I know, the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter belongs to your Qin family, but you handed him over to the Japanese, everyone in ten miles and eight towns doesn't know about this matter, and your Qin family is also famous this time!" ”
Qin Ruiming said with a smile: "I said that you are a descendant, you don't have to provoke me here, I don't know who you are, what is the purpose of saying this, I admit what you say, and I can't tell you." ”
The man smiled and said, "Why can't I say anything about the Chinese and the Japanese?" ”
Qin Ruiming was a little impatient, in fact, he really couldn't judge the origin of this person, he thought that it was possible that Zhang Baoshan's people deliberately said backthings to trick themselves, or it was possible that the Japanese sent spies to deceive Fangzi. So Qin Ruiming said:
"Now that the matter has come to this, what's the use of you calling here? Yes, I gave the recipe to the Japanese, but did he make the medicine? You are wearing such a skin, can you teach me here? ”
The man was not angry, and then smiled: "However, I know that although you handed over the prescription, you did something on it, and the Japanese got the prescription, but they couldn't make the medicine; I also know that you secretly supported the Eighth Route Army and took the Japanese medicinal materials to give the Eighth Route Pharmaceutical. It can be said that he is strategizing and witty. ”
When Qin Ruiming heard this, he not only sighed, but also seemed to be speaking to the jailer. It was as if he was saying to himself: "But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and in the end, I ended up with this result......
The man knew what Qin Ruiming was talking about, and said clearly: "You mean to let Zhang Baoshan slip back alive, and then you squatted in prison, and Qiu Hengshui's entire army was wiped out......"
Qin Ruiming was even more surprised at this time. Thinking that he is a little jailer, he will never know so much inside information, and what he said is so good! Qin Ruiming couldn't help but look at the young man carefully for a while, and said, "Who are you?" ”
The man said solemnly: "I am a Chinese. ”
Qin Ruiming said: "You don't have to beat around the bush, you just say what you want to do." ”
Qin Ruiming, the man from the pavilion, said so, and said: "Mr. Qin, I know all these things recently, and I won't test you anymore, let's tell you." I am from the Statistical Survey Bureau of the Military Commission of the National Government, which is the business of Boss Dai, and of course I am not in direct contact with him. ”
Qin Ruiming had heard Qiu Hengshui talk about the best secret agencies in Xiyu Village before, because before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he had been fighting openly and secretly with these secret agencies in the Ludong base area for many years, and now is the period of "cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party", and the two sides can be said to be at peace with each other and there are no major contradictions. If Qiu Hengshui was here, he would know the details of this person as soon as he asked, but now. But I can't do it. I heard the man go on to say:
"Mr. Qin, I know that you are also a patriot and can support the Eighth Route Anti-Japanese Resistance, why don't you help us?"
Qin Ruiming smiled: "Why should I believe you? ”
The man smiled, "I also know that Mr. Qin is resourceful. I'll find out why you should believe it. In fact, it is very simple, I was also born and raised in Shili Baxiang, I was there before the Japanese came, and now I am also seventeen years old, if I were Zhang Baoshan's person, I would not have been a prophet waiting for Mr. Qin here as a jailer in advance; If I were a spy of the Japanese. It's impossible for me to tell you that in this place. ”
Qin Rui really wanted to keep the secret recipe, and it was best not to let the Japanese take away a piece of paper, so he said to the jailer: "Then how are you going to prove it?" ”
The man smiled and said: "I used our strength to get the original book of the "Green Capsule Testament" in the hands of the Japanese, of course, you told Inoue yesterday that you did something, and I also heard this; Then, I let Zhang Baoshan, a traitor, disappear, so that the Japanese suspected that he had taken the original side. Does that prove what I'm saying? ”
Qin Ruiming knew that he was unable to fly at this time, and when he saw someone saying this, he asked the jailer: "If you do this, I am a waste, what do you need me to help you do?" ”
The man smiled and said: "Mr. Qin is a patriot, our boss gave me the task of sabotaging the Japanese army's plan to obtain the Seven Spirit Flowers, but we Chinese can't follow the things of the ancestors, destroy the Fangzi, and in the end I didn't get it, isn't it also sorry for the ancestors?" That's why I implore Mr. Qin, if I do what I promised above, you will restore the internal side, and how about I go back and hand it over to the government? ”
When Qin Ruiming heard this, he began to ponder, in fact, he just felt that he couldn't pass it on, especially the Zhang family, and the secret recipe must not be allowed to be obtained; But later, he found that the Japanese could not give it, because it was a traitor; And now the problem comes again, if you don't give the Japanese a real recipe, then your inner recipe is still in the secret cave in Xiyu Village, and if you die, maybe this recipe will never see the light of day. - This knot has always bothered Qin Ruiming, sometimes he is wondering, whether to give the recipe to the Japanese, and then keep the treasures of mankind, sometimes Qin Ruiming is shaken, but then he figured out that any rights, money, living treasures, must have a virtuous person to live in, if it is handed over to villains and demons, then it is better not to have these rights, money and treasures.
But Qin Ruiming suddenly ignited hope at this moment, he felt that this young man spoke cautiously, to the point, and most importantly, he was a Chinese, if the Seven Spirit Flowers could not be owned by his own Qin family, even if it was given to the Chinese, it would be a hundred times stronger than letting the Japanese take it away, and even if he did not hand him over to the government, even if this jailer swallowed it himself, it would be insignificant to Qin Ruiming.
After thinking about these joints clearly, Qin Ruiming said to the jailer: "One word, as long as you kill Zhang Baoshan and get the original Fang Zi from the Japanese, I will give you the two pages of the inner Fang that Fang Zi does not have!" ”
The man smiled and said: "Mr. Qin really understands the righteousness and is happy, let's just decide, killing Zhang Baoshan is simple, for us it is like pinching an ant to death, but in order to replace him with suspicion, we need to get the book, and I also need Mr. Qin to act with my strategy." ”
Qin Ruiming didn't care about the interests of the Qin family at this moment, as long as he could save the recipe, he was willing to hand it over to this young man and let him take it out, so he readily agreed.
It turns out that this person's name is Meng Haichang, a native of Dongyu Village, since the establishment of the Republic of China, the cottage of Dongyu Village is no longer with Xiyu Village, but the village was established by itself, and it has gradually been divided into two independent villages with Xiyu Village for decades. Of course, the relationship between their ancestors still makes the two villages very close, and Qin Ruiming doesn't know that this Meng Haichang is the unmarried son-in-law of Qiu Hengshui's third daughter. Of course, Qiu Hengshui's third daughter Qiu has not yet come out of the cabinet, and when the eighth road in Xiyu Village fought against the devil, she ran to her future in-law's house in Dongyu Village alone to hide, Meng Haichang's parents are naturally also descendants of the Boxers, and they took the lead together, and secretly protected the "prospective daughter-in-law".
Qin Ruiming naturally didn't know this, he asked the name of this jailer, and the other party didn't answer with a smile, but said that this kind of thing, it is better to know each other as little as possible. At this point, Qin Ruiming also decided to fight once. Late that night, Qin Ruiming asked to find Zhang Baoshan, and soon Zhang Baoshan came and locked him alone with Qin Ruiming, Qin Ruiming said to him:
"Zhang Baoshan, I have thought about it, I can give you the secret recipe, but you must promise me one condition."
Zhang Baoshan has already bowed to Qin Ruiming, he doesn't know whether Qin Ruiming is true or false at this time, and what purpose he is in. But when he heard that Qin Ruiming was going to hand over the secret recipe, he really couldn't resist the temptation, and couldn't help but say:
"Qin Ruiming, I know that you must be trying to produce something again, I won't be fooled by you!"
Qin Ruiming saw that Zhang Baoshan was afraid, so he should have said: "Look where you want to go, I don't want to play a moth for you, I want you to bring a message to the Japanese, even if I have any moths, you just have to talk, don't care about your business." ”
Zhang Baoshan felt that this was reasonable, even if Qin Ruiming wanted to calculate someone, he just ignored it, just explained the situation to the Japanese, and the province himself fell into a trap. So Zhang Baoshan asked Qin Ruiming:
"Then what do you want me to bring to the Japanese?"
Qin Ruiming said: "This is easy to do, I want you to sue the Japanese, I have figured it out, I want to hand over the recipe and restore the inner side to him, but I don't want your Zhang family to get it, and I don't want you Zhang Baoshan to fall into my trap again, I want to discuss it with the Japanese alone." ”
Zhang Baoshan is actually not stupid, he understands that if Qin Ruiming wants to bet on handing over the recipe to the Japanese, then he will be working in vain, first, he can't get the prescription, second, he doesn't have any credit, and third, he will make the Qin family bigger to press himself. Zhang Baoshan was a little hesitant at this time, Qin Ruiming saw it and said:
"Zhang Baoshan, the Ming people don't say secret words, I'll tell you the truth, my purpose is to let the Japanese devils take the original house and then I destroy it, and then after I die, the Qin family will have no secret recipe, and no one in the world will know about the Seven Spirits Flower Scattered."
Zhang Baoshan suddenly interrupted: "Absolutely not, you can't destroy Fangzi, and I won't let you be Japanese." ”
Qin Ruiming smiled: "Then I originally had a way to get the best of both worlds, but you were too timid to do it, afraid that I would harm you." ”
Zhang Baoshan said: "What is the best of both worlds, you can talk about it." ”
Qin Ruiming said: "I will tell your Zhang family the secret of the internal side, and your Zhang family will take it, but you must ensure that you will not tell the Japanese." (To be continued.) )
