Chapter 165 Overnight in Lotus Village
At the beginning of night, the sky and the earth are hazy, and the small village located in the mountain col reveals a few lights, dim but warm.
When the team arrived outside the village, the special service company first blocked the entrance and exit of the village, and Li Siwei quietly entered the village with the assault company and the engineer team, hoping to find an empty house to spend the night.
The village was built on the mountain, a few adobe thatched huts, simple and dilapidated, all the way to the past, about twenty or thirty families in the village, but really found a deserted and dilapidated house at the end of the village.
Of the three rooms, one has collapsed, and the yard is overgrown with grass......
Liao Heiniu took someone in to investigate, hurriedly returned, looked at Li Siwei and shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Turtle's, it's a mess...... If you live here, you might as well go to the mountains and find a clearing place to spend the night! β
Li Siwei was stunned, and he had to shake his head and smile bitterly, "Let's go......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ma Yue coming in a hurry, "Commander, the village chief here wants to see you." As he spoke, he pointed behind him.
Li Siwei followed the prestige, but saw a middle-aged man with a stocky figure and a long robe hurriedly walking a few steps forward, with a smile on his face full of vicissitudes, "Sir, are you looking for a place to live?" β
Li Siwei looked at him and nodded slightly, "I want to find a place to stay, but it seems that there are no empty houses in this village." β
The village chief hurriedly shook his head, with a straight face, "Sir, why do you want an empty house?" Let the soldiers come in, and make arrangements for you in the down! β
Everyone was stunned and a little surprised...... This village chief is not like ordinary people!
Li Siwei groaned for a moment and smiled, "Village chief, we have four or five hundred people...... I'm afraid your village can't arrange it! β
The village chief was stunned, gritted his teeth, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely want to help the Fa ......."
Li Siwei waved his hand, "Forget it, I won't bother the villagers, just let the brothers get together outside the village for one night." β
The village hurriedly shook his head, with a generous expression, "Sir, the soldiers fought bloodily on the front line for the country and the people, how can they be wronged when they arrive in Lotus Village?" The people of Lotus Village can't do such a thing! β
Everyone was even more surprised, and the Lotus Village ...... Isn't it different from other villages? This village chief is too enthusiastic!
Li Siwei smiled and shook his head, "Village Chief, I have thanked you on behalf of the brothers for your kindness, but we really can't disturb the villagers......
The village chief was anxious, "Sir, these days there have been three batches of national army soldiers from the village, and Lotus Village has never been rude...... The villagers have nothing else to ask for, but to ask the soldiers to show their might on the front line, drive the Japanese out as soon as possible, and restore peace to the country......"
Li Siwei was stunned and stared at him tightly, but saw his sincerity...... Perhaps, they only want a peace, but this peace is not something they can give them!
"Village," Li Siwei sighed softly, "I understand the kindness of the villagers, but ......"
Seeing that Li Siwei still wanted to refuse, the village chief hurriedly shook his head with a solemn expression, "Sir, even if this is the dedication of the villagers of Lotus Village to the war of resistance, please do it!" β
Liao Heiniu hurriedly looked at Li Siwei, "Cannon, you still hesitate with a hammer!" Squirm like a man! β
Gu Li and a cadre of soldiers looked at Liao Heiniu with some surprise, this guy dares to talk to the chief like this?!
Li Siwei didn't seem to care, and when he heard this, he nodded, "Cheng, then it's troublesome to the village chief!" β
The village was overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly waved their hands, "No trouble, no trouble...... Sir, I'm going to arrange it below. β
As he spoke, he hurried away.
Miao Zhenhua was a little worried, and hurriedly wanted to follow, "Regiment leader, I'll go and see, this village chief is not like ordinary people......"
Li Siwei shook his head, "Don't worry, he has no malicious intentions!" β
Hearing this, Miao Zhenhua paused and stood silently behind Li Siwei, but heard Li Siwei smile, "He really doesn't look like an ordinary person...... Lotus Village? There's something interesting to the name! β
Wu Ruolan was a little curious, "What do you mean?" Where do we have a place called Lotus Village! One of my aunts is a ...... from Lotus Village."
Liao Heiniu frowned, his face hesitated, "Cannon, you mean...... White Lotus Sect? β
Liao Heiniu has been a brother in the robe, but he also knows some rumors about the rivers and lakes, such as the White Lotus Sect...... The silt originated from the chaos of Qi, and the white lotus appeared in a prosperous world.
Li Siwei smiled and stared at him, "Do you believe it?" β
Liao Heiniu froze for a moment and shook his head, "Lao Tzu has heard of it, but he doesn't know if it's true or not!" I heard that they are all restless turtle sons! β
Li Siwei shook his head, "Black Bull, times are different...... Now, the little devil is coming, as long as there is a conscience, the Chinese will unite as one! Ann restless ...... It doesn't matter anymore! β
"Yes," Gu Li nodded, "Nowadays, the Japanese invaders are rampant, and the disaster of the Chinese nation's destruction of the country and the extinction of the species is not far away, and the people with conscience should share the same hatred!" β
"Hehe," Li Siwei waved his hand, "Fuck it!" Stay first...... Zhenhua, you go to Company Commander Huang and Company Commander Sun and ask them to bring their brothers into the village! β
"Yes!" Miao Zhenhua agreed and hurried away.
The village chief quickly went back and forth, with a smile on his face, "Sir, the arrangements are ready...... Let the soldiers live with peace of mind, and the villagers are very welcome! β
"Good!" Li Siwei smiled and nodded, "Thank you, brothers!" β
The village smiled, "Sir, you are too polite, the soldiers in front of you are much more than you!" Let's go, a few chiefs went to the cold house to rest. β
"Good!" Li Siwei nodded briskly, and looked back at Liao Heiniu and Gu Li, "I'll go over with the village chief first, and you can come over when you have arranged the brothers." β
"Yes!" The two said yes, turned around and left.
The village chief's house is in the middle and back of the village, and when I enter the chaimen and pass through the spacious bluestone courtyard, I see five adobe houses lined up, the hall is brightly lit, the stove room is loud, and the night sky is filled with a rich fragrance...... Apparently, a hearty dinner is being prepared.
Li Siwei glanced at it and was a little surprised, "Village chief, don't ...... like this"
The village chief stood still at the door of the hall, and when he turned around, his face was full of smiles, "Sir, please!" β
Li Siwei shook his head and smiled bitterly, so he had to step into the hall, followed by Wu Ruolan.
The village chief glanced at Wu Ruolan, his face full of surprise, "This...... It's still a girl! It's really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go! β
Wu Ruolan smiled at him, "Village Chief, you are not like an ordinary person!" β
The village chief's face froze, and he hurriedly walked to the house, "Sir, please take a seat!" β
As he spoke, he went to pull the chair.
Li Siwei naturally saw his embarrassment clearly, turned his head and glanced at Wu Ruolan, his eyes full of smiles.
Wu Ruolan stuck out her tongue prettyly, looking proud.
"Sit down!" Li Siwei walked over and sat down in a chair.
Wu Ruolan sat next to him, accompanied by the village chief, at this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl walked in from outside, carrying a teapot in her hand, secretly glanced at Li Siwei and Wu Ruolan, hurriedly poured tea for them, and left without saying a word after pouring the tea.
Li Siwei rarely drinks tea, and in this era, even if he wants to drink it, it is not easy, but he can also see that those three teacups are not the objects that ordinary people should have...... However, he didn't want to say it, after all, there was no malice.
They were three dark purple three-inch cups, although they were not carved, but there was a faint glow in the light, which was the color of the pulp.
Li Siwei picked up the steaming tea, a rich aroma came to his nose, he took a sip gently, the tea was slightly bitter in the mouth, but even if he felt fragrant...... He took another sip, gently put down the teacup, and looked at the village chief, "What's the village's surname?" β
The village chief smiled slightly, "Under the surname Lei, how do you call the chief?" β
Li Siwei smiled, "My surname is Li, and my brothers call me Li Cannon...... Village Chief Lei, the little devil didn't hit Lotus Village, as far as I know, Yuexi County is still in the hands of the national army. β
"Yes, the soldiers of the national army in Yuexi County are still resisting bravely, and the Japanese have not been to Lotus Village!" Village Chief Lei nodded, with a frank face, "Sir, I can't hide it, although I live in Lotus Village, I have some industries outside, so I have also seen the atrocities of the Japanese invaders...... Alas, outrageous! β
Li Siwei nodded, feeling the same way, "The mountains and rivers are broken, and the Japanese invaders are rampant...... Woe to the people! β
Village Chief Lei nodded, picked up the teacup, and took a sip gently, but his expression was much more elegant than Li Siwei's.
Gently putting down the teacup, Village Chief Lei looked at Li Siwei with emotion on his face, "The people are bitter, why aren't the soldiers bitter?" I have seen the soldiers who fought on the front line, and I have also talked about the wounded soldiers who were transported to the rear...... They are also bitter! Therefore, a rule has been set for Lotus Village, where there are soldiers who enter the village, everyone must be hospitable! β
Li Siwei was shocked and awe-inspired, "Lei Village Chief Gao Yi!" β
Village Chief Lei shook his head, his face full of shame, "Although I am a grass farmer, I also understand that if there are no soldiers fighting bravely on the front line, the people will never be at peace...... Where is the country broken? It's a pity that under the ...... But you can't go into battle to kill the enemy like the soldiers! Shame on you! β
Li Siwei was stunned, gently picked up the teacup, and took a sip...... He didn't continue to ask, who in the world does not have his own suffering?
Village Chief Lei also picked up the teacup and sipped it gently.
Wu Ruolan looked at Li Siwei, then at Village Chief Lei, and opened her mouth gently, "Village Chief, why is this village called Lotus Village?" Is there a lot of lotus flowers in the village? Lotus...... It must be beautiful, right? β
Village Chief Lei gently put down the teacup, looked at Wu Ruolan with an innocent face, and slowly shook his head, "The lotus is certainly very beautiful, but unfortunately there is no lotus flower in the village...... The name of this lotus village was left by the ancestors. β
As he spoke, he glanced at Li Siwei quietly.
Li Siwei smiled, "The lotus flower is holy and elegant, but the noble righteousness of the villagers is also in line with the name of Lotus Village!" β
Village Chief Lei was stunned for a moment, and showed a smile, "The chief has an overreputation!" These are my equal things. β
While the two were talking, Liao Heiniu and Ma Yue walked in in a hurry, their faces full of joy, "Cannon, the villagers are really enthusiastic!" Lao Tzu is really the right person, brothers can have a good rest tonight! β
Village Chief Lei hurriedly got up and beckoned Liao Heiniu and the two, "Sir, please take a seat!" β
As he spoke, he poured tea for the two of them.
Liao Heiniu glanced at the teacup and smiled, "Village chief, the teacup is so small, how can it quench your thirst?" There are two sea bowls to bring up, and it's enjoyable to drink with that! β
When he was in Jiangcheng, Liao Heiniu also liked to soak in the teahouse, although it was also a teacup, but it was a coarse porcelain cup that was a few sizes bigger...... Brother Pao's family pays attention to a heroic!
Village Chief Lei was stunned, "Cheng!" The chief is bold, and you're not welcome. β
After saying that, he hurried out of the hall, and after a while, he came in with a stack of coarse porcelain sea bowls and a large copper kettle.
Big bowl, hot tea!
Liao Heiniu lifted the bowl, tilted his neck, poured it down with a "grunt", "knock", took the bowl for a while, looked at Village Chief Lei and smiled, "Comfortable!" The tea is good, and the people are also bold! β
Village Chief Lei nodded, smiling, "The chief is also a bold man!" β
He prefers Liao Heiniu's temperament!
After a while, Gu Li, Huang Hua and Sun Dali also arrived one after another, and the food was also brought in.
There was wine and meat, the guests and hosts were happy, and the village chief Lei arranged for everyone to sleep, and the night was quiet again.
In the wing room, Wu Ruolan slept with the little girl, but she was a little lost in her heart...... Although this shop is very soft and fragrant, she misses the night in Yang Miaoji even more.
"Sister," the little girl didn't fall asleep, she turned over gently, facing Wu Ruolan's back, and her voice was a little worried, "You...... Asleep? β
Wu Ruolan hesitated, then turned over and faced her, "Can't sleep?" β
The little girl sighed softly, "You...... Are you scared? β
Wu Ruolan was stunned, "Scared? β
"Well," said the little girl's mournful voice, "I've seen those bad guys, and they're so fierce...... Beat those soldiers so badly......"
"Hehe," Wu Ruolan gently held her little hand, "Sister is not afraid, they are fierce, we will be more fierce than them!" My sister hates them, but she won't be afraid of them! β
The little girl was stunned, "Sister, you are so brave!" I want my father to be as brave as my uncle...... No, you're braver than they are! β
Wu Ruolan smiled lightly, "My sister is brave, that's because the people around my sister are very brave...... Someday, you will be as brave as your sister! β
The little girl perked up with a hint of excitement in her voice, "Really? β
"Really!" Wu Ruolan gently hugged her into her arms, but there was a trace of sadness in her heart...... Suffering makes people brave, and in this era, it's hard not to be brave!
Once upon a time, wasn't he as naΓ―ve as she was, as carefree as her?
The two unmasked people hugged each other tightly and fell asleep, perhaps...... Only in dreams can there be no suffering!
The "chirping" of birds broke the silence of the village, and the night receded and a new day began.
Li Siwei and his entourage bid farewell to Village Chief Lei and the villagers, and continued eastward along the mountain trail.
After a night's rest, the brothers were in good spirits, and in Lotus Village, they felt warm! Those strange villagers entertained them as relatives for the night, just because they were soldiers fighting for their country!
The group passed through several mountains and crossed several ridges, and in a mountain col, Li Siwei stopped, "Zhenhua, let the brothers stop, change clothes!" β
"Yes!" Miao Zhenhua agreed and hurried away.
Gu Li was stunned, "Change clothes? β
He had heard Li Siwei say this more than once.
Li Siwei nodded, "It's almost time to reach the enemy-occupied area, it will be safer to change your clothes." β
Dress-up, that is, camouflage, is naturally not a clever trick, because many people have used it, and many people are using it! In fact, if you look into it seriously, many animals are born with this survival strategy, such as chameleons, dead leaf butterflies......
Liao Heiniu quickly followed with a team of brothers, stopped in the mountain pass, untied his backpack, opened the outermost thin quilt in the surprised eyes of the engineer team, and took out a set of equipment for the little devils, steel helmets, clothes, and armed belts...... Everything but the kitchen sink!
Gu Li was also full of surprise, "Sir, this is the clothes of the little devil......"
Li Siwei nodded, looking at him with a smile, "Taken from the dead man!" Do you dare to wear it? β
Gu Li's face stiffened, and he gritted his teeth, "Why don't you dare?" β
They are all soldiers, and the assault companies dare to wear them, but what are the engineer squads afraid of?
"Good!" Li Siwei nodded and strode over, "Come with Lao Tzu, everyone has to change!" β
Since it was an infiltration, Li Siwei was naturally prepared, and gathered more than 300 sets of devil costumes for the brothers to bring with them!
Wu Ruolan followed behind Li Siwei, her face was slightly red, "Commander......"
She is a woman after all, where can she change her clothes in public? However, there are barren mountains and mountains all around, and I feel panicked when I want to hide in it alone.
Li Siwei smiled, "I'll go with you." β
"Hmm," Wu Ruolan nodded, but her face turned even redder!
