Early the next morning, Yan Jiashi and Shi Suo went on the road and returned to Changsha to find out the news of the arrested He Yuan. Xiong Dadao was left lying in the cabin to recuperate, and Hu Xuan and Du Ruhuai were collecting firewood and pulling grass on the riverbank. Through half a day and a night of understanding, Hu Shu felt that Du Ruhuai was very similar to Zhao Ming who he knew before, both of them were calm and wise, and had extensive knowledge, while Du Ruhuai had more of a sense of sharpness, compared with Zhao Ming's gentleness and introverted, the two of them had their own merits.
The firewood and grass on the river bank are luxuriant, Hu Bolt and Du Ruhuai will play a bunch for a while, choose to spread out the flat ground to dry, Lao Du lights a pot of dry tobacco, while smoking and teaching Hu Bolt to weave straw baskets, Hu Bolt is working while asking Du Ruhuai for some views on the current situation, some problems, I can't solve them for a long time, and after his words, I suddenly became enlightened. Hu Xuan couldn't help laughing and said: "It seems that who people are with, who they are affected by, and whether they make good friends or bad friends is too important." ”
Du Ruhuai said: "This is half right, making friends or bad friends, of course it is important, but my innate material is the cornerstone, the foolish, no matter how good the truth is, I can't understand it, the stubborn, no matter how much you teach, it is inevitable to play the piano to the cow, thousands of people and thousands of faces, to constitute the world of flowers." ”
Hu Xuan thought of Yan Jiashi and said: "When Lao Yan silently recited "Diary of a Madman", I admired him very much, and his ability to recite by eye was also taken seriously. ”
"Lao Yan has this ability," Du Ruhuai said with a smile: "His obsession with literature is always hungry and thirsty, and he will read a new work like "Diary of a Madman", of course, like drinking honey, but then again, Mr. Lu Xun's article is indeed an innovation, and it is an impact and leap to the old-fashioned and obscure style of writing in the past. ”
"That's right," Hu Xuan nodded and said: "The innovation in literature and consciousness is not of great significance compared to other innovations such as system and political situation. ”
"But our powerful warlords will not agree with your words," Du Ruhuai said with a puff of smoke: "They heard that there are new things, new ideas, and they will destroy you without asking about it, as long as everyone is stupidly slaves and ensures that they are pampered, they will be satisfied, regardless of the rise and fall of the country and the decline of the nation." ”
They picked some herbs to change the dressing for Xiong Dadao's leg injury, and Hu Xuan saw that the black swelling of his wound seemed to have subsided a little, and said happily: "These grasses really work, it seems that nature is really wonderful, and the things that have been prepared to heal the wound are there, just see if you understand it or not, whether you can use it or not." ”
"The wonder of nature is not limited to the healing of herbs," Du Ruhuai said with a dry smoke: "From which point of view, it is a mutually accessible whole, and the correlation is everywhere. I used to hear people say, 'I don't care what I want, whatever else I want.' Whoever says such things is stupid and does not understand these basic principles of nature. ”
"Lao Du, you are too clever." Hu Shuan screamed, and the wooden pestle in his hand smashed on his hand, and he snorted in pain.
"Be careful, be careful."

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Yan Jiashi and Shi Suo returned to the boat, and Xiong Dadao hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Did you hear the news? ”
Yan Jiashi said a little heavily: "The news has been detected, but it is not very favorable, the people are still locked up in the police station, but the security is tighter, it may be that we went to the door to save people that time, so that they strengthened their vigilance." ”
Shi Suo also said: "There is a high wall and iron net, easy to defend and difficult to attack, not to mention a few of us, even if you send thirty or fifty people, you can't attack it, I still wonder what about it, last time the two of you dared to break in, it was really bold enough." He turned his head to Hu Xuan and said, "I met your classmate Xiao Li, who walked to the other side at that time, and couldn't hide, and he asked me to bring you a letter." As he spoke, he pulled out an old newspaper from his pocket.
Hu Bolt took it, and saw a few lines of words written in the cracks of the newspaper, the handwriting was sloppy, obviously written in a hurry, and the words on it were: Brother Hu, I met Brother Shi by chance, and I carried a letter like a face. Yu since the government, both feel against the heart and morality, this time since the order to go south, especially more and more, often feel that there is a failure, do tolerance and official business, every time not to cheat and bribe, pit people and harm people, not only so, the boss in the public vicious suspicion, not tolerated by others, recently for some sectarian disputes, see the suspicion of me, fear of its harm, my brother decided to leave the military and political circles, choose a day to return to Tianjin, hope that the brother will meet again.
"He asked me where you were, but I didn't tell him the truth," Shi Suo said. ”
Du Ruhuai, Xiong Dadao and others next to them heard that the police station was heavily guarded, and they couldn't think of a good way to save people for a while, so everyone was silent.
Xiong Dadao said: "No matter how strict the guard is, I have to save it, now the warlords will not let go of the so-called chaotic party, when my leg is healed, let's find a way, maybe the guard will not always be so strict." ”
Hu Xuan suddenly said: "I have a plan, not to break into the police station, but to lure them out." I'll tell you about it. "After that, I told everyone a plan.
"Okay," Yan Jiashi called out first.
Du Ruhuai lit a pot of tobacco, smoked for a while, nodded and said, "Well, I think it's okay, but we have to plan the specific details." There can be no omission. ”
At that moment, a few people discussed it, set a plan of action, rested for a night, the next morning Hu Bolt, Shi Suo, Yan Jiashi, Du Ruhuai set off together, Xiong Dadao regardless of the leg injury, but also to go together, Du Ruhuai said: "You can't help if you go, but it is easy to expose the target, we don't have to fight, you can recuperate at home." ”
All the way to Changsha, it was already evening, a few people regardless of fatigue, went straight to the city's "Zhangjia Mansion", the mansion is in the depths of an alley, the environment is very quiet, everyone stopped outside the alley, Du Ruhuai walked in alone, to see that no one paid attention on the street, there was no abnormality inside and outside the mansion, so he walked over and knocked on the door, and after a while the door opened, there were two people in civilian clothes sitting in the gatehouse, and asked Du Ruhuai: "Who are you looking for?" ”
After Du Ruhuai finished looking for Xiao Li, the two people in civilian clothes stared at him, looked up and down, Du Ruhuai looked calm, and continued: "We are old friends, I heard that he lives here, and we are looking for him to catch up." ”
One of the people in civilian clothes said to Du Ruhuai: "May I ask your surname?" ”
"My surname is Gu."
"Okay, you wait a minute." The plainclothes man went in. After a while, Xiao Li walked out, and when he saw Du Ruhuai, he was stunned for a moment, and Du Ruhuai hurriedly said, "Didn't you want to talk to Master Hu yesterday?" He's coming. Xiao Li nodded, Du Ruhuai led him out of the alley, saw the alley, and said happily: "You are here." Hu Xuan smiled: "You guys are so heavily guarded here, it's not easy to see you." ”
Xiao Li pursed his lips, "The one surnamed Yu is insidious and vicious, and he is afraid of death, for fear that others will assassinate him, and the guards will make him three layers inside and three layers outside, and he can't believe anyone, and he is suspicious of me......"
"This kind of person is like this," Hu Xuan said, "He cheats and harms others, and he also thinks that others are like him and harms others, so the grass and trees are all soldiers, and the neighbor is beggar." ”
Xiao Li looked at no one near Zuo, and whispered: "I have already decided to leave in the next two days and go back to Tianjin. Accompany this Mr. Yu again, I am afraid of dying in his hands. ”
Du Ruhuai and a few people scattered a little, gave them a sentry, Hu Xuan said: "If you want to go, I fully support you, it is not a wise choice to be with the tiger as a companion and for the tiger, but if you listen to me, help me do something before leaving." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Help me get a piece of letterhead with Mr. Yu's seal."
"Okay," Xiao Li gritted his teeth and said, "Take this, although it is risky, but I know that you must be of serious use." ”
"Yes, to save the life of a righteous man."
"Good. You wait over there for a while. After Xiao Li finished speaking, he returned to the mansion, and Hu Xuan wandered around the street corner waiting, thinking about various ways to deal with the accident. After about an hour, Xiao Li came.
At this time, it was already dark, and there were few pedestrians on the road, Xiao Li handed Hu Bolt a piece of paper, Hu Bolt didn't have time to look at it carefully, hurriedly put it into his clothes, and said to Xiao Li: "Great, thank you, tomorrow morning, you will quietly take out your own things, I will wait for you here." ”
Hu Xuan and others said goodbye to Xiao Li, found a carriage and horse shop to live, entered the house, and the rest of the people came around, Hu Xuan took out the piece of paper, and looked under the lamp, it was a letterhead covered with a seal, Shi Suo took the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and Hu Xuan wrote on the letterhead: "The prisoner He Yuan came to my place for personal interrogation, and sent back after the trial."
