147. Swift Grass

Less than seven o'clock in the evening, Peng Ruofei came to the Confucius Temple on Jiangzhou Road, there was no one in the Confucius Temple, the empty hall was full of dust, exuding a musty smell, except for a statue of Confucius, only some ruined and withered, moldy and deteriorated, even the rats disliked the sacrifices on the altar, the last time I came to worship Mr. Confucius I don't know what year and month it was, now the situation is so chaotic and dangerous, and a few people are immersed in learning, come here to pay tribute to the Confucius Sage of the Master of the World?

Peng Ruofei walked to the statue of Confucius, raised his hand and looked at the Rolex watch in his hand, it was almost seven o'clock, he looked outside the temple gate, and sure enough, he saw the old janitor of Xunyang Middle School.

"Hello. My name is Wei Jingen, I am a member of the party group of the Jiujiang District Party Committee, and Lao Lu is my superior. The old man stretched out his hand, shook hands with Peng Ruofei, and introduced himself.

"Hello, my name is Peng Ruofei, and I am a member of the underground party organization of the Shanghai District Party Committee." Peng Ruofei held Wei Jingen's hand tightly: "Comrade, thanks to you for helping me out of the siege today, otherwise I would really be unable to fly." ”

Wei Jingen smiled: "Actually, I know from your accent that you are from out of town, Principal Lu is a local, and his relatives and friends are also locals, and ten of the people who came to him these days are comrades from other places, these days here is also bloody and bloody, the enemy is wantonly searching for ** people, Lao Lu was also unfortunately arrested, he asked me before being arrested, let the comrades who came to the joint leave as soon as possible, so as not to be implicated." In the past few days, there has been a lot of noise outside, the streets are full of police and security teams, and there are many plainclothes agents stationed in our school, and as soon as they show their feet, they will be arrested immediately. ”

"Alas, I didn't expect the April 12 incident in Shanghai to have spread here." Peng Ruofei was in a heavy mood and couldn't help sighing.

"Not only here, but also in Guangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Guangxi and other provinces also carried out massacres against ** members and revolutionary masses in the name of 'purging the party'." Wei Jingen introduced the current domestic situation to Peng Ruofei, and the situation was worse than Peng Ruofei imagined.

"So what are we going to do now?" Peng Ruofei felt a heartache, in just a few days, thousands of outstanding ** members were killed.

"I heard Lao Lu say that the Central Committee decided that it was necessary to abandon its illusions in the Kuomintang, correct its right-leaning opportunism, and strive for an armed uprising to seize power, and pay for the debt with blood. However, the specific actions are not yet clear, and what we can do now is that all party members go underground, carry out lurking, and preserve the living forces, and second, we must develop our own armed forces, and only then can we get out of power with the barrel of a gun. Wei Jingen conveyed the spirit of the Central Committee to Peng Ruofei.

"Okay, I understand what we're going to do."

Lao Wei stepped forward and held Peng Ruofei's hand tightly: "Comrade Peng Ruofei, take care, there is a long way to go!" ”

"Take care." Peng Ruofei and Wei Jingen hugged tightly, with a grim expression and resolute eyes.

After Peng Ruofei and Wei Jingen separated, he walked out of the Confucius Temple, and he was thinking about how to proceed next. Peng Ruofei originally planned to take his wife and children to find the party organization in Jiujiang, but now that the party organization has been damaged, if he continues to stay in Jiujiang, it will only increase the danger coefficient, so he decided to return to Yunwu Mountain first.

According to Peng Ruofei's observation, Leng Jinqiu, the big boss of Yunwu Mountain, is a chivalrous and courageous person, although he is a thief, he is not bloodthirsty, and kills innocent people indiscriminately, he likes children and personally teaches Yunlin to practice martial arts, which shows that Leng Jinqiu has a pure heart; Although Leng Jinqiu didn't know each other with their family, he was able to rescue him, and he also asked Xiuqin to heal the knife wounds on him and Yingmei, taking good care of their family, which shows that Leng Jinqiu is kind-hearted; Although Leng Jinqiu did not ask about their identities, Peng Ruofei guessed that Leng Jinqiu should know his identity, or at least he had some suspicions, but he just tacitly understood it, which showed that Leng Jinqiu sympathized.

Leng Jinqiu These people are not evildoers, but now those local tyrants and shoddy gentry are tyrannical and oppressive to the people, Leng Jinqiu and they rebelled in order to survive, and they were forced to go to Liangshan and fall into the grass. At this moment, Peng Ruofei has a bold idea: to incorporate this reckless contingent and develop it into an armed force belonging to our party.

Peng Ruofei looked at the time, it was already night, so he decided to stay in the hotel first, and then set off back to Yunwu Mountain the next day.

When the sixth child saw that Peng Ruofei was staying at the Tongfu Hotel, he also planned to stay in this hotel, but he didn't dare to get too close, so he simply slipped into the firewood room for the night, and the firewood room was close to the gate, so that he could see clearly through the crack in the door when he went in and out, and he wanted to see where this Mr. Ling would go tomorrow.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Peng Ruofei went to the front desk to settle the bill, ready to leave the Tongfu Hotel, he walked to the street, ready to call a rickshaw out of the city.

The sixth child basically didn't sleep all night, the space in the firewood room was cramped, and it was full of sundries, so he could only lie down in his clothes and lie in a daze for three or four hours. Just now he saw through the crack in the door that this Mr. Ling was settling accounts with the boss, and he was probably going to leave here, so he gently walked out of the firewood room and followed from a distance.

Peng Ruofei walked silently on the street, he found that there were more police and security teams on the street today than yesterday, and the surrounding crowd was also talking about something, and he scraped a sentence next to his ear: "Do you know, there was a death in Xunyang Middle School early this morning, saying that the old man who was guarding the gate was a communist, and he took out a grenade out of nowhere and blew himself up with a few plainclothes people." ”

When Peng Ruofei heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he quickly stopped and walked towards the crowd, wanting to understand what happened.

"I also heard that a few days ago, the principal of Xunyang Middle School was arrested, saying that he was one of the leaders of the Jiujiang Communist Party, and that communists from all over the country were going to come to Jiujiang and were ready to contact him, so there were many plainclothes agents in the school, and they waited there for three days, and no one was seen." A middle-aged man in a long robe whispers to those around him what he knows.

"And what about this bombing this morning?" A young man in a suit with glasses helped his glasses and asked curiously.

"Actually, it's not that no one has come to the school these days, but someone has come, and they have been blocked by this old man who is guarding the door, so those spies are a little suspicious of this old man who is guarding the door, and yesterday there was another person, the old man said that this is the parent of the student, who came to ask for sick leave for the child, at first those plainclothes were not suspicious, the old man said that he had a nose and eyes, but this thing is such a coincidence, early this morning, the sick student and his father came to the teacher, and the plainclothes immediately recognized that today's parent is not yesterday's parent, But the child's name was the same, so the spies asked the old man who was guarding the door what was going on, but the old man took out a grenade from under the table, pulled the fuse, and with a bang, he died with the three plainclothes. ”

Peng Ruofei seemed to have been beaten with a stick, a little dizzy, he supported the wall with one hand, and supported his forehead with the other: he didn't expect Lao Wei to expose himself in order to cover him, and finally died with the enemy.
