The three of them talked until late before going to sleep, and Mi Bao gave up the kang to Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi, and he curled up beside the stove with Da Zhuangzi.

Mi Po was confused, and he refused the two of them's request to invite him out of the mountain together. From the narration of Xiao Guozi and Tao Jinbao, he knew about the life of the people of Gudi Town in the past few years, and the second year after he left, the Japanese devils came, and they also saw the importance of the location here, and the army was stationed near the town. There is a steady stream of military vehicles driving in and out. The school also stopped, Zheng Liu led the team into the mountain, and also took the boys from the school. In order for them not to be caught by the devils and become people's husbands to build roads, the children's parents only promised them to enter the mountains. Just when they left the school, they unexpectedly found a secret passage under the base where the Buddha statue was originally placed, and there seemed to be a warehouse below, which could hide a lot of people. Zheng Liu: They blew up the entrance to the cave and made a mark. The team accepted the reorganization of the anti-Japanese coalition army when they entered the mountain, and in the past few years, they have fought with the Japanese devils and won many battles.

Xiao Guozi said that this year's winter seemed to be earlier than in previous years, and after the snow began to fall, the guerrillas of the Anti-Japanese Federation began to break into pieces, as in previous years, and were divided into teams of more than a dozen or at most 20 people, and distributed in the deep mountains and old forests to deal with the encirclement and closure of the Japanese devils. This time, the devil learned to make a mistake, and brought the local Japanese puppet army to search the mountain, do you know which grandson the leader of the puppet army that day was? It's the skinny monkey who held you back then! This guy used to drill the old forest all day long, and it was like a living map, and our team was planted in his hands. They discovered the shack where they were hiding, fought an encounter with them, sacrificed a few brothers, and had no way to evacuate to Valley Bottom. When we entered the mountains, we had already agreed that no one would fight at home as a last resort, but this time it was really a last resort. We entered the town in the dark, and no one noticed. But the thin monkey is with the devil door to door search, you think, whose children who don't hide well, they can't find the town's men, women and children are escorted to the open space in the middle of the town, we don't fall in the ice and snow and rush out to fight with them, protect some of the villagers who can run and hide in the tunnels in the school, Tao Jinbao and I led them up the mountain, and somehow, they got lost in the dark night, which has never been. It seems that God arranged to meet you.

Tao Jinbao also said, we have to go back quickly, everyone is still in the tunnel. I don't know if the people who sent it sent sent Xin'er to the brigade. The thin monkey is ghostly, the town must be surrounded at this time, it has been a few days, and it is cold and hungry, if the team does not arrive, I am afraid that everyone will not be able to hold it anymore.

Mi Bao felt that they had really changed, and their every move was reminiscent of Mr. Monk back then. In their words, you can feel that they are not only living for themselves, but also for their families, friends, and brothers. But Mi Bao still felt far away from them, he didn't want to be with them because he didn't want to see killing again, he didn't want to see death, Sister Fu, and the blood shed by his relatives and villagers was like a dry river sinking his feet deep in it, and he couldn't extricate himself.

In the darkness, the fire in the stove went out one after another, and the wind outside the window became louder, rolling snow particles and banging on the door and window. Mi Bao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and in a daze, he suddenly saw the door open silently, and a person walked in, and he recognized it as Peaches at a glance. It's the one he's always wanted to ask but didn't ask.

Momoko was still wearing the pale green blouse sprinkled with tiny white flowers, standing there quietly, looking at him with tears streaming down her face. He hurriedly met and stretched out his hands, but he suddenly found that the peach face was not tears, but two lines of bright red blood, he was startled, like falling into a bottomless abyss, just like the feeling of falling into the big black ditch, suddenly woke up, and found that it was still by the stove, it turned out to be a nightmare. By this time it was already dark, and the gate to the outside was hidden, and there was a cold wind carrying snowflakes in the air.

Mi Bao turned over and jumped up, and found that there was no one inside, Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi had left at some point, taking some dry food with them, as well as their knives and guns. There was a white cloth on the table, as if torn from the inside of the jacket, with a line of words written on it, and at a glance it was written by biting your fingers: The country is broken and the family is difficult to defend!

Mi Bao's heart was shocked, and he was about to go out, but Da Zhuangzi opened the door with his head and ran into the house with snowflakes all over his body.

"Big Zhuangzi, what are you doing? Send Tao Jinbao to a small country? Mi Po squatted down and stroked Da Zhuangzi's ears. He has long regarded dogs as his companions and bosom friends, the object of conversation. The big strong man got used to it, it shook its head, shook its hair, and the snow on its body fell to the ground, melting into small droplets and slowly seeping into the ground.

Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi walked in the vast forest according to the route pointed out by Mi Bao last night, flowing along the mountain spring that had been frozen and frozen. The speed of descent was much faster, and the two of them slid and ran, and found the mountain forest they were familiar with when it was dark. They dug a snow nest in a leeward place, and the cat went in and took a few bites of the frozen and hard-budding rice crackers that they had brought from Mi Po. Tao Jinbao squinted for a while, then pushed the little country next to him to wake up, and continued to hurry in the night.

The knee-deep snow blocked Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi's footsteps, and every step required a lot of physical strength. Two days later, in the early morning, they were already approaching Valley Town.

The snow had stopped, and the sun had somehow peeked out of the lead-gray clouds half of its face, and the eyes of the white and bright people were stinging. The whole forest was surprisingly silent, as if only their wheezing and footsteps were left, and the dry food was gone, and they could only grab a few handfuls of snow and stuff it into their mouths, and wipe it on their frozen numb faces. When Xiao Guozi bent down to catch the snow again, he found some messy footprints on the red pine a few steps away, and he was wondering if his eyesight was blurring the white snow, when suddenly three Japanese puppet soldiers in white camouflage jumped out from behind a few pine trees.

Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi ran when they saw this, but they fell after not running a few steps. The guys were holding guns, but they didn't let them go, and it seemed that they wanted to catch them alive.

Tao Jinbao They were in a hurry for several days, their bodies were extremely tired, and they were hungry, so they really didn't have the strength to run forward as before, but they didn't want to be caught, Tao Jinbao reached out for the gun, and was held down by the two guys who pounced. Xiao Guozi turned over and sat up, drew a long knife from his waist, and slashed at the rushing enemy.

The enemy blocked with a spear with a bayonet, and Xiao Guozi's stiff hand could not catch the handle of the knife, only hearing the sound of "bell", the knife flew, but the knife did not fall to the ground, and was steadily caught by a person who jumped down from a big stone a few steps away.

Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi looked intently, only to see Mi Bao wearing a white cloak, carrying a shotgun, holding a knife in one hand and a bow in the other, and the winter sun gave him a dazzling halo. Tao Jinbao was secretly happy in his heart, and Xiao Guozi breathed a deep sigh of relief.

The guy next to Xiao Guozi immediately raised the gun and aimed it at Mi Bao, Mi Bao didn't allow him to hold the gun steady and shook the knife in his hand, the tip of the knife was piercing his leg, he screamed and knelt down on one leg, Xiao Guozi immediately got up and snatched the gun over. Mi Bao pulled out two arrows from the quiver on his back like lightning, and the two arrows shot out almost simultaneously, accurately hitting the arms of the two puppet soldiers beside Tao Jinbao, and they let go of Tao Jinbao with a whoosh.

Facing the three terrified Japanese puppet soldiers kneeling in front of them, Xiao Guozi raised his knife, and Mi Bao stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Let them run for their lives." Mi Bao said calmly.

"Why?" Xiao Guozi shouted.

"Because I don't want to see anyone kill again," said Mipo with a blank face, "If you have to kill, wait until I'm gone." ”

Mibo turned and walked down the hill.

Tao Jinbao shouted from behind, "How many of our people did they help the Japanese devils kill, old people and children, women, even peaches ......." He swallowed the words behind him as Mi Bao stopped and turned to look directly at him.

"I'm coming back with you just for Peaches, and the people of Valley Town, who should go to my fairy land and be killed or killed again. We won't see each other for a while, whoever is alive will lead everyone to go, I made a mark on the red pine that entered the mountain, if I can't go back, which of you will go to the fairy land and let the big strong man smell this, it will not desperately not let you in. Mipo said as she tossed the close-fitting leather kettle to the two of them.

Xiao Guozi ran to Tao Jinbao's side, pulled his clothes and said, "He stayed in the mountains for too long, and his head was sealed by snow!" ”

"No," Tao Jinbao was stunned for a moment and said, "He said it so well, we don't fight and bleed for this, why else!" ”

Everyone was speechless for a while, and the three puppet soldiers also looked at each other and stood up, not knowing whether to flee or stay.

At this moment, a dense burst of gunfire was heard in the direction of the town of Valley Bottom down the mountain, accompanied by explosions.

Tao Jinbao immediately came back to his senses, he pointed a gun at the three Japanese puppet soldiers and shouted: "Get out!" If you do anything that is sorry for your ancestors, it will definitely not end well! ”

The three Japanese puppet soldiers said again and again that they didn't dare, they didn't dare, and they fled.

Tao Jinbao and Xiao Guozi indiscriminately poured a few mouthfuls of water with Mi Bao's body temperature in the leather kettle, and ran towards Gudi Town while nibbling on dry food.
