CHAPTER XXII 4

The night sky is clean and refreshing after a long rainy day, and the dense stars of all sizes twinkle together, and the starlight sprinkles charm and tenderness on the monotonous and straight original top of Bailuyuan.

Lu Zhaopeng walked along the path of the Zishui River, and when he saw that dawn was approaching, he cut diagonally into a path leading to the original slope and walked to the White Deer Academy, which was located on the slope.

Mr. Zhu had just gotten up and walked to the courtyard with a long-handled broom. Lu Zhaopeng said, "Sir, I still have to trouble you." Mr. Zhu didn't say a word, and pulled him into a room: "You lived in the old place last time!" Lu Zhaopeng said: "This time I will only stay for one day, and I will leave when it is dark and the night is quiet." Mr. Zhu didn't ask him where he came from, and told his wife to clean up breakfast for him.

Zhaopeng ate and fell asleep. When Lu Zhaopeng woke up, it was already dark, and he knew that he was screaming on the branches of the trees in the academy, so he had some dinner and walked to Mr. Zhu's study in the front yard.

Mr. Zhu raised his head, took off his glasses, put down his brush, and looked a little nervous: "You still stay in the back room." Zhaopeng said, "I'll get up when the night is quiet later, and it's all right." Then he sat down, picked up a stack of pages on the side of the table and looked at it, and wrote at the end of the general column of the "Chronicle of the Republic of China": The 36th Army was destroyed in Zhangping Town, this county.

Lu Zhaopeng's eyes were fixed on the bandit for a long time, and he didn't speak. Mr. Zhu said: "Do you know this battle in Zhangping?" Lu Zhaopeng said: "I know. Mr. Zhu asked, "Is it really all wiped out?" Then he pulled a newspaper over and handed it to Zhaopeng: "Just like what is written in this newspaper?" Lu Zhaopeng took the newspaper, and there was a striking large black headline on the front page: The 36th Army of the Whole Annihilation ** is in Zhangping Town, Zishui County.

Lu Zhaopeng said: "The whole army was annihilated, that's it. I escaped from the mountains. Mr. Zhu let out a stunned sigh, looked at him and said, "You have eclipsed the book again." Lu Zhaopeng put down the newspaper and said calmly: "Three times." Mr. Zhu said, "Are you still doing it?" Lu Zhaopeng smiled bitterly and said, "When will even I be lost, I won't do it." Saying that, he changed out a strong tone: "If my old book can't be eroded, and you live a long life, I will ask you to change the word 'bandit' on the county chronicle to the word 'army' in the future." Do you think your disciple looks like a bandit?" Mr. Zhu was stunned for a moment, and he didn't speak for a while.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and two people walked in the door, it turned out to be Yue Weishan, secretary of the Zishui County Party Department of the Kuomintang, followed by Bai Xiaowen, who was dressed in the uniform of the county security team, and both sides were stunned for a while.

Yue Weishan quickly came to his senses and arched his hand and said, "Oh, Mr. Lu, how have you been doing for so many years?" Lu Zhaopeng also calmed down from his surprise: "You are knowingly asking Secretary Yue!" Yue Weishan said: "That's right. We've worked together before! I hope we work together again. Lu Zhaopeng said: "You worked with me before, and now you work with Xiaowen, I can't intervene." Never mind! Xiaowen is also the original master, and the two of us are still brothers in our own family. Yue Weishan said: "We can still work together again, Deputy Political Commissar Lu!" Your political commissar Jiang has already joined the provincial party department to work together! So you and I will join hands again in Zishui County......" Lu Zhaopeng didn't hear the words clearly, and his ears buzzed.

Did Commissar Jiang really defect? Oh, my God! Political Commissar Wang, who had seen this step a long time ago, collapsed next to the pigsty of the farmer's house in Zhangping Town, and could no longer get up, and the body was thrown somewhere.

Lu Zhaopeng felt that his fingers were suddenly as cold as mud, and said with a cold face: "Someone is willing to be a dog to crawl under your party's banquet table and gnaw bones, don't conclude from this that people will become dogs!" Yue Weishan laughed: "I really convinced you!" You lost all the peasant cooperatives, you lost all the Weibei riots, and it was easy to make do with a 36th Army, and you lost all of them again, and even the dignified political commissar rebelled, and your brother tossed around like this......" Lu Zhaopeng said: "You are very proud now, I can imagine it." But your ability to say witticisms is not old enough! If you want to convince the two of us to compete, you set up a stage in the county, and let's set up a ...... competition" Yue Weishan pouted and laughed: "This is a good idea......" said and turned his head to Xiaowen and said: "You go back and bring me the 'Song Ci', I want to ask Mr. Zhu for a ......" Lu Zhaopeng snorted and said: "Secretary Yue has done it, and he wants to earn a thousand yuan in silver!" You don't ask Xiaowen to move the troops, and I'll just go with you!" Yue Weishan stiffened his face and explained: "Mr. Lu is too careful, he can really be described as a frightened bird!" If I really want to catch you, I can do it right now. Mr. Zhu interjected: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Xiaowen, you also go to get the book, 'Song Ci' I have it here. Hyo-moon stopped at the door.

Yue Weishan said: "A friend gave me a piece of Hunan satin, just to frame a middle hall, I want to ask Mr. to write a middle hall, let Xiaowen go back and take a measure of the size." Lu Zhaopeng said sarcastically: "Secretary Yue, your forgetfulness is so big!" Mr. Zhu saw that Yue Weishan's intention was obvious, so he ripped it apart and said, "Mr. Yue, I know that you and Zhaopeng are enemies. Whoever comes to my academy to look for me is regarded as a gentleman, regardless of political or political factions. You have to settle the grievances between your two families, but you have to wait until you get out of the gate of the academy, and I don't care if you tear it up, kill it, burn it, or cook it. Yue Weishan smiled wryly: "Yes, yes, there is only one pure place left in China." Mr. Zhu said, "You haven't said anything about you looking for me!" I took 'Song Ci' and Hunan satin to remember it temporarily. What do you think you want me to work for?" Yue Weishan actually didn't have anything serious.

The 36th Army of the Red Army had the accurate information provided by the county and the close cooperation of the security team, and he was specially commended by the provincial party department for this, and he was in a very happy mood.

never expected to bump into Lu Zhaopeng here, and temporarily wanted to let Xiaowen pick it up

The wording of "Song Ci" and Hunan satin, Xiaowen naturally understood that it was just an excuse to get out and go home to move troops...... Yue Weishan had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I'm really here to ask Mr. to write." Mr. Zhu agreed: "Okay, let's take care of the bickering, let's finish writing first and let the ink dry, and then you can argue and argue...... Xiaowen, you come to study ink for your uncle. Xiaowen glanced at Yue Weishan, and reluctantly took a pillar of ink ingots and grinded them in the inkstone.

Lu Zhaopeng stood up and said, "Sit down, I'll go have some food." Mr. Zhu said, "If you are delayed after eating, come over and talk to Mr. Yue." Lu Zhaopeng had already walked outside the door and turned around and said, "Yue Weishan, we will have a period later!" As he spoke, he ran away.

Yue Weishan stood up and shouted: "Xiaowen, hurry up-" Bai Xiaowen threw the ink ingot, pulled out the pistol from his waist, and almost dragged Mr. Zhu down when he jumped out of the study from the table.

Bai Xiaowen shouted

"Don't move, I'll shoot if you run again" ran into the courtyard. Yue Weishan also jumped out of the house, stood by the brick canal that surrounded the courtyard and shook his right arm: "Backyard backyard - chase towards the backyard - " Mr. Zhu did not move, he used an iron skewer to pull an oil lamp twist, stood up and said with his hands behind his back: "It seems that they are not gentlemen!"
