At this time, they were standing on the roof of the building, and the sea breeze was blowing in their faces, and the sound of the waves was in their ears. Just go downstairs and you will see the beach to the east. Walking along the beach, there is no need to walk six or seven miles, so that you can enter the downtown area of Shanghai. Tamada was about to speak to the two of them when suddenly a gust of sea breeze blew and thunder rolled in. I thought, "Oh no, it's going to rain!" He hurriedly shouted to the two men: "Hurry up, hurry up!" ”

The three of them quickly descended the three-story building, and just stepped on the beach, a lightning bolt pierced the night sky, and the embers were extinguished in the East China Sea where the black waves were rolling.

"Quick, get to the hut!" Gao Yutian was very familiar with this area, and knew that after the fishing flood, the hut would be empty. When I arrived at the front of the hut, my body was soaked, and with a push of the tree's hand, there was a "quack", and the door was pushed open, and a fishy smell came to my face. The shed was black and empty, and I couldn't see anything clearly. Yutian looked down and saw that the two were standing behind him, drenched in water, but motionless.

"What are you waiting for!" Gao Yutian reached out to pull the one on the left, but he dodged away. At that moment, a flash of lightning struck, and the surroundings were white. Oh, it turned out that this person was the young man who met at the restaurant.

"Alas, you're not a little girl, come in!" Gao Yutian shouted, feeling a little funny in his heart, a good man who can cut little devils is so shy. The man no longer hesitated and followed Gao Yutian into the hut.

Gao Yutian took off his shirt in the dark, and while groping to hang it on the wall of the farmhouse, he said, "Hey, you also take off your clothes, if you don't take them off, you will catch a cold." In the black hole room, I couldn't see people clearly, but I only heard one of them answer: "We don't have to worry about you, you just take care of yourself!" ”

Gao Yutian touched a tattered grass coat again, spread it on the ground, and said, "Hey, there is a shop here, lie down for a while, and then leave when the rain stops." ”

One of them replied, "We have it here, we are so tired, we will talk about it tomorrow." ”

As soon as he heard that it was the local dialect of Ganyu, Gao Yutian wanted to talk, but he was indeed very tired, so he lay down and soon fell asleep. Dimly opened his eyes, suddenly felt as if someone was touching his face, and suddenly stood up, a "carp stiffened", soared into the air, and without waiting for his feet to land, he turned sharply and lunged out of his palm. But as soon as he made a move, he suddenly stopped it. I'm not alone here, this palm of 100 catties of strength, don't hit your "friend" by mistake.

Yutian stood still and looked, the gap in the hut shot into the morning light, the sky was already bright, but there was no one in front of him, and as soon as his spirit relaxed, he felt a trace of sea breeze taking advantage of the gap and blowing on his face. Ah, that's what it does!

Where did these two friends go? Yutian turned around and wanted to walk out of the hut, but he found that where he had slept, he left two tattered grass clothes, and when he jumped up, it seemed that something had fallen from his body. It seems that one of those two "friends" must have covered himself! He bent down to pick up his coat and shook the dust, but out of it fell a small piece of paper, which he picked up and looked at, and on it was written in pencil:

Heroes and heroes, there will be a period later.

It was also signed: Xu Zixia.

Xu Zixia? What does he do? Which of the two just left? These two people are really gods and dragons, and they can't see their heads! Gao Yutian was extremely remorseful. I've always loved making friends. Judging from the fact that these two people killed the little devil with a knife, rescued their compatriots, and hung upside down on the golden hook to save themselves from danger, they are undoubtedly an upright and brave man with unique skills. And I missed it!

Gao Yutian but thought about it, since Xu Zixia and the others came to Shanghai, there will always be a day when they will meet in this place, so why rush for a while? Thinking of this, Gao Yutian folded the pieces of paper and picked them up. Then he put on his still wet clothes, and walked out of the hut, and strode along the seashore towards the city.

Shanghai, the metropolis known as the "Pearl of the Orient", became a veritable "adventurer's paradise" after a few years of occupation by Japanese imperialism. ”。 What will inevitably follow is the "hell of the poor". Dogs and horses coexist with hunger and cold. The best way to show the "hell" scene in this "heaven" is the morning and the evening.

It's morning. Xu Zixia walked in this strange street with his little baggage, full of melancholy. I came to Shanghai to find relatives, but when I arrived in this big Shanghai, after breaking up with another night walker, Song Jiliu, I didn't even have an address, which was really like "looking for a needle in the sea", and there was little hope. Besides, with only five silver dollars in his arms, how can he sustain himself for a few days? Therefore, there is no lack of exoticism in the concession area, and he does not have to appreciate it.

In the absence of relatives, Xu Zixia regretted a little that he didn't get acquainted with the man who crossed the blockade line overnight, and maybe he could help himself a little. But people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and they don't know what the way this man is coming from, and he can't be unguarded when he falls to the ground, let alone himself......

As his thoughts rolled, a number of people poured out of the street. Most of them are old people and children, and everyone is carrying a small rice cooker or carrying a suitcase, hurrying forward, what is this for? Xu Zixia was a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked an old man beside him. The old man glanced at him, and saw that he was from outsider, and he looked honest, so he said as he walked, "You probably just arrived, right?" ”

"Yes......" Xu Zixia nodded.

The old man said anxiously: "No wonder you don't know, our boss Clark, the real estate tycoon in Shanghai, gives porridge to save the poor, and his family has millions of dollars and is kind and charitable, what a good person!" He paused and said, "The water girl is also the most sympathetic to us poor, and everyone says that she is a 'female bodhisattva!'" ’”

Xu Zixia thought to himself: "Giving porridge to help the poor, I only heard about it before, so I have to go and see it with my own eyes." Besides, I have no relatives in this big Shanghai, in case I can't find my relatives and can't live, maybe this is still an emergency place. ”

So, Zixia walked forward with the old man. After walking more than 200 steps, I turned a corner, and saw a square not far ahead, crowded with black crows, bustling, crowding in front and back.

When I got closer, I saw that in front of the crowd, there was a row of chest-high wooden barrels, as many as fifteen or sixteen. Steaming rice porridge is served in a bucket. Next to each bucket stood two large men with long spoons in their hands, wearing white aprons emblazoned with the words "Clark & Company" emblazoned.

At this moment, the bell on one side of the bell tower rang, one by one, slowly and deeply. Hundreds of people in the huge empty field suddenly fell silent.

Suddenly, people's eyes were focused on the company's entrance. Three people walked out of the company side by side. On the left is Zhu Ba, a housekeeper wearing a robe. He was slender, and his thin, pale face showed a kind look; Walking on the right is a middle-aged foreigner in a suit and leather shoes, with a slightly protruding belly, two symmetrical mustaches on his round face, and two glittering diamond rings on his fingers, all showing his illustrious position and great wealth.

This big money is the chairman and general manager of the famous Clark Company, Clark. He is not only a billionaire known to women and children in the city, but also a great philanthropist.

What is particularly striking is a beautiful young woman walking between the two. She didn't apply grease and powder, nor did she perm her curly hair. A pair of eyes are like the blue sea, deep and moving. Long black and shiny hair that falls naturally over the shoulders. The dress is not fancy, a long black velvet cheongsam, outlining her slender figure. She is the woman who is praised as the "female bodhisattva", and her surname is Shui Xianhua.

The soup kitchen began. I saw the daffodil walk to a large wooden barrel in the middle, take the long spoon in the hand of a big man, and scoop up the first spoonful. Then all the long spoons were waved, and spoonfuls of hot porridge were poured into those small pots, boxes, and large soup bowls......

Xu Zixia suddenly saw a fourteen or five-year-old girl in the crowd, probably due to hunger, hurriedly ran two steps, slipped under her feet, fell down, and cried "wow". saw the daffodil stuff the big spoon in his hand into the hand of the big man beside him, took two steps forward, leaned over and picked up the little girl.

A middle-aged woman behind the little girl hurriedly stepped forward and said in a panic: "Mrs., madam, don't stain your clothes!" "It looks like she might be the mother of the little girl.

The daffodil nodded to the terrified woman, and then returned the little girl to her. Then he took out a delicate small bag from his body, took out a few bills from it, and handed them to the woman.

The woman was stunned, tears welled up in her eyes, and she was at a loss, not knowing what to do. The daffodil affectionately took the little girl's hand and placed the banknote in the palm of the little girl's hand.

"Quick, kowtow to my wife!" The woman screamed as she pulled the little girl and fell to her knees.

Daffodil hurriedly pulled them up, whispered a few words to them, and then turned to walk towards Clark and Zhu Ba, foreigners who were standing not far away.

When she turned around, due to the reflection of the sun, Xu Zixia clearly saw tears shining in her eyes......
