When a ragged procession arrived outside the shop, the townspeople closed their doors, believing that bandits were coming.

But a beggar lying on the corner immediately jumped up to meet them. Da Lao Wei was a little surprised, but Captain Cui introduced: "Da Lao Wei, this is our instructor Comrade Qian. ”

The front beard was unshaven, his clothes were ragged, and he stretched out his dirty black hand, and in a polite manner, the elder Wei also shook hands with him.

"Captain Cui, our comrades have already bought daily necessities on the town and withdrew from the town before dawn!"

They left Borendian under the leadership of the forward, only to see the slogans "Down with the local tyrants and inferior gentry" and "Divide the land equally" painted on the walls on both sides of the street.

In a cypress grove outside the town, the elder Wei saw Gong Qingzhen and Xiao Xu, as well as other comrades from the guerrillas.

Xiao Xu hurriedly took the baby out of the back basket and handed it to him to hold.

Pang Hutou spat at his companions and explained how they escaped from the enemy.

Xiao An asked the elder Wei: "Comrade Lao Wei, you can still breathe fire, can you teach me?" ”

The eldest elder Wei hugged Mo Yin and did not answer, and Xiao Xu also asked: "Comrade eldest Wei, why do you want to hide even your own comrades?" Don't you even believe us? ”

"How is it possible, this fire-breathing has nothing to hide?" Da Lao Wei responded while looking at the baby in his arms. After not seeing Mo Yin for a few days, he gained some weight again, and a pair of dark eyes stared curiously at Da Lao Wei.

"Spitfire is an acrobatic skill that requires training!" Elder Wei replied unhurriedly, his right shoulder was suddenly patted, and he screamed in pain.

Sun Deqiang, who patted him on the shoulder, hurriedly apologized, and the eldest elder Wei handed the baby to Xiao An to hug, he untied his collar and exposed his shoulders, and Xiao Xu hurriedly asked: "Comrade Senior Wei, what are you doing here?" ”

However, she saw the scar on Lao Wei's shoulder, and hurriedly said: "Comrade Lao Wei, did the enemy torture you?" ”

Elder Wei nodded in response, and Xiao Xu hurriedly took gauze from the medicine box to bandage the wound.

Captain Cui came to him with a man who looked like a cadre and introduced: "Comrade Elder Wei, let me introduce you to you, this is Comrade He Suyang, secretary of our district party committee, you are from the Jiangxi Soviet District, can you introduce us to some experience in fighting the enemy?" ”

Elder Wei folded his collar and said modestly: "I am only doing ideological work among the masses of ethnic minorities, and I can't talk about my experience in the struggle against the enemy, where should we go next?" ”

He Suyang lowered his black-framed eyes, and said: "We were driven out of Wolf Ear Mountain by the enemy, in order to exterminate our force, the enemy did not hesitate to call in the strength of a regiment, it seems that we must not stay here, we can rush to Dongxiang, there are also our comrades!" ”

A team member quickly came to report: "Secretary He, Captain Cui, the enemy has appeared in Boren Store, we must evacuate quickly!" ”

After hearing this, Captain Cui said anxiously: "The enemy has trucks and the pursuit speed is very fast, but we are afraid that we will not be able to escape the enemy's pursuit when we retreat to Dongxiang now!" ”

He Suyang looked at the elder Wei and asked unhurriedly: "Comrade Lao Wei, since you are doing the work of the ethnic minority masses, there is a Miao tribe near Borendian, they are black seedlings, and they are seedlings, if these Miao compatriots are willing to take us in, the enemy will not dare to attack the Miao village!" ”

Elder Wei said, "Then I'll try!" ”

He Suyang led the way, and Gong Qingzhen brought them fried rice and water to satisfy their hunger.

There was no sun in the sky, and the clouds were overcast, and the wind was howling, and the team rushed towards Fujiso.

By noon, the goose-feather snow had finally fallen, and they didn't bother to rest and eat, but passed each other dry food and water, and walked as they went.

Captain Cui said to Elder Wei: "The salt and medicine you brought to us really saved our urgent need, how did you escape from Mao'er Mountain?" ”

Elder Wei didn't answer, Pang Hutou took over the conversation again, and began to foam at the mouth and tell how brave they were?

By the time it was getting dark, they had reached a dense forest.

He Suyang explained: "Through this dense forest, there is Fujiso, a place where local black seedlings live. ”

Pang Hutou hurriedly said: "Hei Miao, let's not go to them, I heard my fathers say that these Hei Miao can't even be provoked by officers and soldiers, although they don't have muskets and cannons, they have an invisible deadly weapon, and they are hostile to us Han people!" ”

Da Lao Wei responded: "Lao Pang, what you said is too extreme, I have been walking in the mountainous areas where ethnic minorities live for more than a year, and these compatriots are not as terrible as you say!" ”

However, when they were about to enter this dense forest, He Suyang hesitated, and then said to the elder Wei: "Comrade Lao Wei, you are familiar with the ethnic minority compatriots, you go ahead!" ”

Elder Wei nodded in agreement, and then took the lead into the snow-covered forest, and the sad and miserable cries of crows and owls came from the trees, which was terrifying.

Xiao Xu hurriedly wrapped the baby tightly and followed closely behind Da Lao Wei.

A cool breeze blew, bringing down a large amount of snow on the branches, and Gong Qingzhen cheered: "What beautiful snow! ”

Elder Wei hurriedly signaled her not to make a sound, and the guerrillas such as Captain Cui in the back hurriedly raised their spears to guard, and Elder Wei closed his eyes and waved his hand to signal his companions to stop marching first.

He saw a lot of people hiding in the big tree in front of him, dressed in white clothes, white trousers, and white hats, but holding white bows and arrows in their hands. The cluster of arrows glowed with a cold blue light, apparently fed with poison.

The grass and trees in front made a movement, and the comrades behind them immediately pulled the bolt.

The elder Wei saw a man dragging a rattan slipping from a tree, and scolded them in the local language: "This is the place of our black seedlings, you Han people are not allowed to enter!" ”

Although his eyes were closed, Da Lao Wei could see clearly that this was a young man with black seedlings, his face was coated with white powder, and only a pair of yellow-brown pupils were exposed.

He Suyang hurriedly said: "Compatriots of the Miao nationality, we are revolutionary fighters, and we are dedicated to doing things for the common people!" ”

The other party picked up the white bow and kept adding feather arrows to the bowstring, and at the same time looked at them coldly, and scolded in his mouth: "I don't care what team you are, we don't welcome any outsiders here, you leave quickly, otherwise I will release the arrows!" ”

He Suyang hurriedly shut up, and Xiao Xu added: "Don't get me wrong, we are the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army, I am a doctor, if you are not feeling well, I can treat you!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mo Yin in the back basket let out a crisp cry, and Captain Cui hurriedly said: "Don't let him cry, otherwise the cry will attract the enemy!" ”

Xiao Xu hurriedly took Mo Yin out of the back basket to coax him.

Gong Qingzhen's child also cried, and the elder Wei opened his eyes and said to this Miao: "We are just passing through the treasure land, and we only hope to spend the night, and tomorrow at dawn, we will leave immediately!" ”

This Miao man saw his pair of "wolf eyes" and showed a surprised look.

Gong Qingzhen hurriedly said: "This fellow, please look at our children's face, let us spend the night here, right?" ”
