Chapter 36: Over the Wall
"Give money? Hehe, of course give money. As long as you register your name, you will be given a settling-in allowance of two oceans. It was after joining the army that the army provided free food in military uniforms, and also paid half a dollar of military pay every month. ”
"Then I'm going to be a soldier!" Xizi screamed in surprise and turned her head to look at his mother, "Mother, I want to be a soldier like Brother Hei Niu!" ”
Xiziniang was stunned, and looked at her son blankly for a long time without speaking.
"Mother, if I become a soldier, you can do less sewing work for others in the future. Didn't the battalion commander Ren just say that the army is in charge of eating and distributing clothes, and my half-dollar military salary can be given to the family. ”
"In the future, if you do a good job and get promoted, you will be paid more." Ren Laifeng further threw out more tempting conditions.
"Mother!" Kiko was anxious and shouted at his mother.
"This, this, alas, well. You have to be more careful when you go to be a soldier, remember to always send letters to your family, don't let your mother worry about it. The mother's voice was a little choked, and her eyes were already full of tears.
Ren Laifeng's heart was sour, as if he had taken away someone else's son for life. Xizi was overjoyed, and raised his hand to give Ren Laifeng a military salute, "Battalion commander, I signed up to be a soldier!" ”
At this moment, a fierce knock suddenly sounded outside, "Knock knock!" Knock knock! Open the door! Open the door! The room was stunned.
"I'll open the door." Kiko stood up and walked to the door. This is his home, and when there is a knock on the door, he, the owner, of course, has to see who it is.
"Kiko, wait a minute!" Ren Laifeng stopped Xizi, "Don't open the door yet, see who it is through the crack in the door and then speak." ”
Kiko agreed, ran over and put her face against the crack in the door to look out, and after a moment turned her head, her face had turned pale, "There are so many spies and devils!" ”
The people present all stood up, each showing off the weapons they were carrying.
"Do you have a back door?"
"Yes, I know where the back door is! Battalion commander come with me. Kiko, take your mother, let's go! Niu Hei raised his arm and waved it vigorously, and walked back. Ren Laifeng led everyone to hurry up, and Xizi pulled his mother to the back door. By this time, the knock had turned into a slamming door. "Boom! Boom! Boom! The wooden doors trembled slightly, and no one knew how long they would last.
Walk through the courtyard to the back corner gate. As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard the sound of clicking and prying on the wooden door, and there were people outside the door! Ren Laifeng raised his hand to stop Kiko from opening the door. Open the door now, isn't that to lure the wolf into the house?
"Huang Tian, go up and take a look at the situation outside!" Ren Laifeng pointed to the courtyard wall. Huang Tianfei's body was on the wall, he neither got down nor jumped out, but started running on the wall. The courtyard wall is at most half a foot wide, but Huang Tian is running like flying on it, and he runs out in the blink of an eye. Kiko, who had never seen such a miraculous skill, was stunned.
"Whoosh!" Another figure came up to the wall, and Ren Laifeng saw that it was Feng Wenying! Only this woman would act without even saying hello. Ren Laifeng was really afraid that she would jump out and kill and get involved with the Japanese puppet army outside. Fortunately, Feng Wenying just went up to the wall and looked out, and had no urge to go out and kill. After seeing the situation outside, Feng Wenying jumped off the wall with a somersault.
"Battalion commander, there is a squad of devils, dozens of puppet soldiers, and spies outside the door. We can change places and get out over the wall! Feng Wenying used to be a bandit, and after learning that she was surrounded, her first thought was to run over the wall. Her approach is not a bad idea in the current situation.
Ren Laifeng glanced at the direction where Huang Tian went, it is estimated that he is looking for a suitable place to circumvent the wall, right?
"I'll go over there and have a look, if Huang Tian finds a suitable place to climb over the wall, you can go with him, don't wait for me!" Feng Wenying explained a few words to Ren Laifeng and then turned over the wall and ran in the opposite direction of Huang Tian.
"Wenying, be careful!" Ren Laifeng shouted under the wall. Feng Wenying's body shook and almost didn't fall off the wall. Fortunately, she managed to stabilize her body in time, turned her head slightly, and then sped down.
The people outside who were prying the door were still continuing, Ren Laifeng thought for a while, and simply led everyone to chase them down in the direction of Huang Tianran. In his heart, he always thought that Feng Wenying was synonymous with toughness, this woman was so strong that she didn't seem to need to be taken care of by others at all. Although Huang Tian is strong in martial arts, he and Ren Laifeng have known each other for a longer time, and Ren Laifeng seems to be a little more worried about Huang Tian.
Ren Laifeng's eyes kept looking at the wall, and he ran out far away, why didn't he see the shadow of Huang Tian? Just when he couldn't help but feel anxious, Huang Tian suddenly came out from under the eaves in front of him. "Battalion commander, here. There's no one outside the wall here. Hey? What about Sister Feng? "Ren came to the air duct Feng Wenying called Sister Ying, and Huang Tian called her Sister Feng in order to show the difference.
Wen Ying went over there, and she went over there to find a place to get out. She let us not have to wait for her. There's no one out there, right? No one let's go! ”
"I'll go find a ladder!" Kiko, the owner of the main house, has finally found a place to play. The wall of this courtyard is not too high, but it is more than two meters, and it is not really possible for people who are not physically strong to climb it. For example, Kiko's mother, she definitely won't be able to get up the wall without a ladder.
Kiko went to find a ladder, and the others who could get up the wall began to climb with their bare hands. Ren Laifeng jumped up and grabbed the wall, Huang Tian grabbed his wrist and pulled him up, and the two jumped off the wall one after another. The people behind also turned over to this side one after another.
"Sister Ying hasn't come over yet, let's wait for her, right?"
Ren Laifeng took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, "Okay, let's wait for her for five minutes." If we don't come back in five minutes, we'll go! ”
Five minutes had passed, and Ren Laifeng stood up, "Let's go!" ”
"Kiko and his mother haven't come out yet. Battalion commander, let's wait for Xiziniang, right? ”
Ren Laifeng sighed. There were already cursing voices, shouts, and the sound of things being knocked down inside the courtyard walls, and it was obvious that the devils and traitors outside the courtyard had broken down the door. Xizi went to move the ladder and still hasn't shown her head, and I don't know if the mother and son can get out of danger safely?
There is a head on the wall, it is Xizi Niang. It took a lot of effort for the woman to climb up the wall, but there was no ladder here, but she didn't dare to jump down.
Huang Tian whispered below: "Jump down and take your aunt, I'll pick you up." ”
"Jump, we'll pick you up!" Ren Laifeng also shouted beside him. Xiziniang just smiled and shook her head, but she didn't dare to jump down.
