Under the dim oil lamp, four faces sat down around a round table. At this time, Zhao Shixun had already removed the face towel on his face, revealing the true face of Lushan.

looked at Master Shao opposite, and then glanced at Shao Mengru who was staring at him with red circles next to him, Zhao Shixun wanted to speak and stopped.

Since learning that Shao Mengru was also a member of the Eighth Route Army, Zhao Shixun faintly felt that he might have misunderstood Shao Defang. But after thinking about it, it was still difficult for him to remove Shao Defang from his suspicions. After all, only he and the other party knew about the ambush of Nie Yunshan in advance, if he hadn't leaked the secret, Zhao Shixun really couldn't think of anyone else who could leak such a confidential matter. Could it be that Nie Yunshan's goods have the ability to predict the unknown?!

Eight eyes are facing each other, and the atmosphere is a little weird. Lao Wu coughed and took the initiative to provoke the topic.

"Master Shao, although it is the first time we have met, we are actually old customers. We had business with each other almost four years ago. Miss Shao and the Shao family's help to the Eighth Route Army and the Chinese people's cause of resistance is obvious to all. On behalf of the Eighth Route Army, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you for your strong support for the cause of the anti-Japanese war. ”

"Hehe...... Mr. Wu is polite, although Shao can't go into battle to kill the enemy and serve the country, he also knows his duty as a Chinese. Your army is not ambiguous in fighting devils, and Shao is also quite admired in his heart. ”

Speaking of this, Shao Defang smiled and looked at Zhao Shixun opposite. A pair of eyes full of fine light swept the other party from top to bottom.

"Mr. Zhao, as soon as you say goodbye that day, I remember that you were planning to go to the Guotong Region. Why did you join the Eighth Route Army now? ”

Zhao Shixun was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said with a cold face:

"Thanks to Master Shao, several of our brothers are almost lonely ghosts. It's a pity that my Zhao Shixun's life should not be extinguished, and the king of Hades will not accept me. He asked me to stay in the world to kill devils and traitors! ”

Hearing that Zhao Shixun had something to say, Shao Defang was not angry. With a slight smile, he said:

"Hehe...... Mr. Zhao seems to have a deep misunderstanding of Shao.

It's no wonder that anyone who is ambushed will immediately think that someone is informing. Mr. Zhao thinks so, and Shao can understand. ”

"However, if Mr. Zhao suspects that Shao is colluding with the Japanese to harm you, it is a big mistake.

Shao is not talented, but he is also from reading sage books. Once upon a time, he also threw his pen into Rong, with the ambition of Lingyun, and wanted to stabilize the country.

Although he has no choice but to be the president of this maintenance committee now, he is not greedy for life and fear of death or greedy for any glory and wealth, but has a last resort. ”

Speaking of this, Shao Defang sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Zhao has a life-saving grace for the little girl, and he is a strong man who fights against the Japanese invaders. It is reasonable to be reasonable, it is impossible for Shao to do that betrayal of his friends and seek glory!

”

Staring at Zhao Shixun's eyes, Shao Defang spoke righteously and loudly.

"There is a way to have a god with a head three feet high, Shao Mou made a poisonous oath here today, if Shao Mou has done anything to betray Mr. Zhao, he is willing to die and the clan will be wiped out for 10,000 years!"

"Daddy!"

Hearing her father swear such a poisonous oath, Shao Mengru was startled, and hurriedly grabbed her father's arm with a worried face.

At this point, looking at Shao Defang, who was obviously a little excited, Zhao Shixun also knew that it would be boring to persist at this time. What's more, his suspicion of Shao Defang is also based on the fact that he thinks he is the only person who knows. As for the specific facts, I have not investigated them in depth. Since Shao Defang dared to swear this poisonous oath in front of everyone, he might as well believe the other party once, at least for now.

"Good! Since this is the case, Zhao will temporarily believe in Master Shao. The mountains don't turn around, and Zhao will figure out this matter sooner or later. If it is really Zhao who wronged Master Shao, Zhao will come to the door in person, and let Master Shao fall under the blame! ”

Seeing that the grievances between the two sides were finally put aside temporarily, Lao Wu nodded with relief, looked at Master Shao and Zhao Shixun and said:

"Master Shao, Captain Zhao. This time, Miss Shao and I rushed back overnight, and the most important thing was to send a batch of medicines urgently needed in the rear into the mountain. If it is almost dawn today, there will be many people after dawn, so Captain Zhao and I will not bother much. ”

Hearing this, Shao Defang pondered for a moment, and suddenly stood up and looked at his daughter and Lao Wu Zhao Shixun.

"I heard the little girl say, sir, your surname is Wu, and you are her direct superior. Shao has something I want to ask Mr. Wu for today, and I hope Mr. will not refuse. ”

"Oh? The old gentleman is a friend of the Eighth Route Army, so if there is anything to say, just say something. As long as it does not violate our organizational discipline, I will definitely agree. ”

Seeing that Lao Wu nodded slightly, Lao Wu suddenly pulled his daughter up beside him.

"Mr. Wu, my Shao Defang is such a daughter, this child's life is very hard, Shao has always felt that he owes her a lot.

Now she took the initiative to devote herself to the Eighth Road, doing a lot of things that the old man wanted to do but did not dare to do, and the old man was happy and proud to have such a daughter. ”

"I have a reluctant request today, I hope you can take Mengru out of here and let him go to you and become a real soldier of the Eighth Route Army!"

Suddenly hearing Master Shao say this, Lao Wu and Zhao Shixun were stunned. He blinked and stood up incredulously.

"Mr. Shao, you ......, your daughter can contribute to the Anti-Japanese War if she stays here, and she doesn't necessarily have to get the front line to fight devils. Every comrade has their own combat post, and they don't have to go to the front. ”

Shao Defang's unexpected request made Lao Wu puzzled, and hurriedly explained. Even Shao Mengru looked at her father with a puzzled expression.

Seeing this, Shao Defang pulled his daughter down to his side and said patiently:

"Mengru, it's not for my father's heart. Doing this for my father is also for you and for our Shao family. ”

After a pause, Shao Defang continued with emotion:

"Since Tang Wenbao was killed, my father knows that you have suffered too many grievances. Now that my father has become the president of this maintenance, our family's reputation has been ruined, and it has caused you to not even find a serious person. Every time I think of this, I feel uncomfortable for my father. ”

"Father, the child doesn't care, the child is willing to take care of you for the rest of your life."

Shao Mengru listened to her father's voice full of grief and indignation, and hurriedly spoke comfortingly.

"Silly boy....... For the sake of your father, you must think about your future, and you must leave a way back for our Shao family. Your brother is kind and cowardly, and he is destined to be impossible to accomplish great things. Now that he is committed to the Japanese, he is willing to be a goodwill ambassador, and his father has no hope for him. For the sake of the ancestral foundation and the clan, the father had to continue to be the maintenance president who was poked in the back.

My father can see it, don't look at the Japanese who seem to be crushing Chinese now, but my father believes that the Japanese will have to be driven out by us sooner or later, so my father must leave a way back for our Shao family, I hope you can understand ....... ”

Speaking of this, Shao Defang turned his head to look at Lao Wu and Zhao Shixun.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Zhao. I know you need Mengru to be here for you to help. Please rest assured, when Mengru leaves, I will do all the things she does. You don't have to worry about my ability, how to say that I am also a veteran who has been walking the rivers and lakes for decades. As for my sincerity in resisting Japan, you don't have to worry, since the day I decided to let my daughter participate in your Eighth Road, the old man has not planned to start and finish well with the Japanese! ”

After saying this, Shao Defang stood up straight, held his daughter's hand and looked at Lao Wu and Zhao Shixun with a resolute face, waiting for a reply.

Habitually squinting his eyes, Zhao Shixun glanced at Lao Wu who was deep in thought beside him, and then looked at Shao Defang hidden in the dim light opposite.

The depth of this old man's scheming made Zhao Shixun, who thought he was well-informed, couldn't help but secretly admire. Although he knew that every step the other party took would inevitably seek benefits for his family, Zhao Shixun did not have any disgust for Master Shao's behavior. After all, people don't die for themselves, people like Shao Defang are not alone, many squires and wealthy businessmen in Japanese-occupied areas are like this. What's more, many people are not as good as him, at least he is willing to help the anti-Japanese forces, and he still has some backbone.

As for his request, Zhao Shixun didn't care. Anyway, this kind of thing is not something that Zhao Shixun can decide, although he is a so-called county brigade captain, but in essence, he is just a deserter from the national army who has just defected to the Eighth Road, and Zhao Shixun thinks that he has no part in interfering in this kind of thing.

After a few minutes of silence, Lao Wu seemed to have made a decision, and slowly walked in front of Shao Defang around the table.

"Master Shao, I have a question. If your daughter leaves home to join the Eighth Route Army, how do you explain her disappearance to the outside world? Or how to explain where he went? ”

Looking at Lao Wu, who had doubts on his face, Shao Defang smiled slightly, lowered his voice and said calmly:

"Maybe the old man was still worried and suspicious about this before. But today is different from the past, and today's incident can be said to have given the old man a seamless explanation! ”

Glancing at Zhao Shixun, who was doing nothing to do in a literary game, Shao Defang said word by word:

"When you meet an enemy, you die to protect me!"

……

Late at night, several piercing gunshots suddenly came from the Shao family's compound. Not long after, with a noisy shout, three black shadows sneaked out of the small door of the Shao family's backyard, and disappeared into the pre-dawn darkness in a blink of an eye.
