There was nothing to say all night, and not long after dawn the next day, Zhao Shixun and the six of them left Zuichun Building and began to continue to wander on the street.

For Li Hongyi, Zhao Shixun finally chose to trust him, and rejected Dapeng's proposal to leave the county and return to Shenquan Village.

Although Li Hongyi is the leader of the puppet government's anti-smuggling team, Zhao Shixun does not feel that this will create irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides. Zhao Shixun knew very well that a person like Li Hongyi would never swear allegiance to the Japanese, and he was the captain for two purposes, money and power.

Money can make him far more comfortable than ordinary people in troubled times, and power can prevent him from being bullied by other forces at will.

In Zhao Shixun's opinion, judging from the fact that the other party wanted him to bring a message to his superiors, the other party was at least unwilling to be a direct enemy of the Eighth Route Army.

That being the case, then the issue of Li Hongyi going to tell the Japanese is not a problem, at least not yet.

In addition to his trust in Li Hongyi, Zhao Shixun chose to stay in the county seat for another purpose, that is, to try to find Lao He and them.

Judging from the fact that the Japanese strictly investigated the entry and exit of the county, Zhao Shixun estimated that Lao He and they should not have been exterminated, but continued to hide. If the underground party in the county town was wiped out, the Japanese would never have bothered to check every pedestrian entering and leaving the county.

In this way, Zhao Shixun and a few people stopped and stopped in the county town for another whole day.

When it was close to three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Shixun and the others came to the location of the south gate of the county and sat down in a tea shed near the city gate.

Since he still had no clue, Zhao Shixun decided to use the most stupid method to squat at the city gate for a period of time and hit his luck.

The Japanese imposed martial law in the county, but also made the south gate the only exit from the county.

If anyone from the underground wants to get out of the city, this will be the way they have to go.

Zhao Shixun made a decision, if they still didn't meet the people of the underground party before dark, then they would go to the north gate of the city tomorrow and squat for another half a day to have a look.

In autumn, the afternoon sun becomes more scorching.

Sitting in the tea shed for less than an hour, Zhao Shixun and the others were already sweating. In just a while, they were already a few pots of herbal tea.

Because several people were all loaded with guns and ammunition, they were dressed in black, and there was a faint murderous aura on their bodies. Where this honor goes, it is simply a typical case for the living to avoid the idlers.

Looking at the backs of several people, the boss who was boiling water and making tea had a bitter face.

His grandmother's, I thought that these people would leave after taking a sip of tea, but who knew that they would stay and not leave.

With these masters here, the people who passed by were all like avoiding the plague god, hiding far away, and they didn't dare to come in to drink tea and enjoy the coolness.

Seeing that more than half an hour had passed, these masters had no intention of leaving. The owner of the tea shed was like a dumb man who ate Coptis chinensis for a while, and the one in his heart was called suffering.

It seems that not only will I not be able to open this afternoon, but I will have to post a few pots of tea money.......

In his resentment, the boss looked up at the blue sky and muttered a few words silently, hoping that a dry thunder could fall from the sky on a sunny day and kill these eye-catching bastards.

At this moment, the city gate cave, which had been calm, was suddenly full of people, and it didn't take long for Wuyang and Wuyang to rush in more than 20 men dressed in black.

Watching a group of loaded detectives enter the city against the flow of people, Zhao Shixun hurriedly subconsciously pressed the brim of his hat.

In the crowd, the leading man in a satin coat saw several men sitting in front of the city gate who were also armed with guns, and immediately looked over with a raised brow and a puzzled look.

Noticing that the other party was looking at him, Zhao Shixun's right hand quietly reached under his clothes and held another box cannon on his belt.

In a trance, although the other party glanced at the man in the tea shed a few more times, his steps did not stop at all, and he walked briskly towards the city.

Raising his head slightly, Zhao Shixun looked at the crowd that was gradually moving away, and suddenly became suspicious in his heart.

Due to martial law, the south gate of the county seat has always been allowed to go out and not enter.

Now these men are hurriedly entering the city from the south gate, obviously in a hurry. Could it be that something big happened in the city?!

Just when Zhao Shixun was deep in thought, three bicycles suddenly drove out of the city gate cave and flashed past Zhao Shixun and them.

……

Riding on the car, Li Hongyi chatted with the people around him and glanced back at the figure sitting in the tea shed.

"They're not gone yet?"

After thinking about it, he glanced at the disappeared detective team in front of him, and Li Hongyi showed a sly smile on his face.

With a gentle pinch of the brake, Li Hongyi stopped his bicycle.

"You two go back first, I'll go to the Yangjia butcher shop at the city gate to buy two roast chickens, and come to my place for a drink in the evening."

"Oh, how embarrassing is this, it cost a lot of money yesterday."

When the two men heard this, they also stopped the car and looked embarrassed.

"Okay, it's decided, go to my place for dinner tonight, whoever doesn't go will not give me Li Hongyi face!"

When the two subordinates saw that Li Hongyi said this, they were not polite, and they echoed a few times and rode away.

……

Just when Zhao Shixun was thinking about whether he should continue to stay in the city to find someone, a bicycle suddenly came at a gallop, and then stopped at the edge of the tea shed with a sudden brake.

"Hey......, Master Li, you're here!"

Hearing the voice of the tea shed owner, Zhao Shixun looked back and happened to meet Li Hongyi's gaze.

"Add me a cup, and you'll take care of the rest."

said a word to the boss who was smiling, and Li Hongyi immediately looked familiar and sat directly next to Zhao Shixun.

took the teacup, poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it all, Li Hongyi wiped the water droplets on his mouth.

"Why, I haven't found your people yet......."

Hearing this, staring at the other party's eyes, although Zhao Shixun had some doubts in his heart, he never said a word.

Could it be that something happened to the underground party in the county seat? Thinking about the deep meaning of the other party's words, Zhao Shixun's gaze began to become deeper.

Li Hongyi wanted to lose the other party's appetite, but he didn't expect that he would be a little hairy first. Shrugged his shoulders slightly, his eyes rolled slyly, Li Hongyi stepped forward and pointed in the direction where the crowd disappeared just now.

"Do you know what the group of people who passed by just now were doing?"

Once again, a tempting topic was thrown, and Lee Hong-yi waited for Cho Se-hoon's curiosity.

"I said, can you not just say half of what you say? If you have something to say, you can just fart, what kind of calf is you pretending to be here...... We're not fortune tellers, so how do we know what people do!? ”

Dapeng, who had been sitting opposite Zhao Shixun, had long been a little unhappy with Li Hongyi. Looking at the other party's appearance of pretending again and again, Dapeng couldn't help it, and directly choked a few words with an unhappy face.

"What did they do?"

Concise and clear, Zhao Shixun, who suddenly spoke out, did not have the slightest hint of nonsense.

Hearing this, Li Hongyi smiled awkwardly, and poured himself another cup of tea.

Slowly raising the teacup in front of him, Li Hongyi looked at Zhao Shixun and said slowly:

"There is a small leader in my team with more than a dozen people, his name is Zheng Tao, and he is said to be some bullshit distant relative of Zheng Weishan, the captain of the garrison.

During this time, in order to do business safely and steadily, Lao Tzu gave him many benefits. But this kid is a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, he doesn't say anything about eating me and taking me, he still hooks up with Zheng Weishan openly and secretly on weekdays, and always wants to partner to get me out of the anti-smuggling team. ”

"This kid is relying on himself to be Zheng Weishan's person, and he knows that I don't dare to do anything to him, so he has always been ...... against me.

Alas......, what do you think I should do, Sir Zhao? ”

Listening to the other party's explicit words, Zhao Shixun suddenly admired this kid a little.

As the saying goes, people don't die for themselves. Maybe a scheming person like him is really rare these days.

Zheng Tao is a relative of the captain of the garrison, so Li Hongyi knows very well that whether he personally goes out or sends his subordinates to take action, or even asks people on the rivers and lakes to take action, he can't avoid the possibility of being discovered by Zheng Weishan.

At present, the only safest thing is to let yourself, the sworn enemy of the puppet army, make a move, so that you can not have the slightest worries.

Looking at Li Hongyi, who was smiling at himself with a teacup, Zhao Shixun took a deep look at the other party.

For Li Hongyi, a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, although he knew that the other party was using himself to cut out dissidents, Zhao Shixun didn't break it on the spot.

He knew very well in his heart that this kind of scheming person was very scheming, and just relying on a few words of the scene of serving the country during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, it would definitely not move the other party.

Since the two sides do not have a common goal, the most effective way to cooperate is to simply help each other.

In Li Hongyi's opinion, there is obviously no reason to drop pie in the sky, he has already provided a lot of information to Zhao Shixun and them, of course, he has to mention a little bit of the other party's ability to ask for it.

……

"Where is he now? What it looks like. ”

Knowing the other party's intentions, coupled with the example of the last cooperation, Zhao Shixun immediately stopped talking nonsense.

Hearing this, Li Hongyi slapped his thigh violently.

"Good! Since Brother Zhao is so happy, then I, Li, will not be a mother-in-law. ”

As soon as the words changed, Li Hongyi didn't say anything first, but looked around alertly.

Zhao Shixun saw it in his eyes, and immediately motioned to Heiwa and a few people to stand outside to prevent anyone from eavesdropping, and Dapeng even drove out the owner of a tea shed with a whisker and a horse.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Hongyi lowered his voice and continued:

"Zheng Tao's kid is now in the ruined temple outside the city, where is he playing with a few of his subordinates, I don't think it will be dark until it gets dark, they won't leave there easily."

"As for the people who entered the city just now, they are all from the county detective team. I heard that at noon today they caught a villager who had gone into the city to buy medicine, and learned from him that there were five or six wounded people hiding in the village in Xiaowangzhuang to the north.

No, Zuo Fei's short-lived ghost is bringing people back to their lair, and it is estimated that it won't be long before the nest will be dispatched. ”

Speaking of this, Li Hongyi drank all the tea in the cup, and then got up and left the tea shed.

Before leaving, he arched his hand towards Zhao Shixun.

"Take care, Li has taken his leave."
