Fu Yonggen saw people in front of him hiding on both sides of the street. A group of people wearing gray military uniforms appeared in the middle. They were no different from the group of soldiers who captured his son. They also held big guns and wore gray military uniforms. The only difference was that

There is a person holding a big flag in front of the team.

He wondered: Could this team be the same as his son's team? He looked at the front of the team and then at the back of the team. He asked the person next to him: "Where did this team come from?" The person shook his head.

Said he didn't know.

Fu Yonggen spotted a man walking on the side of the team carrying a box gun. He thought that this man must be a high-ranking military official, but just as he was about to run up to him, the official loudly asked: "

Hey! What are you doing?"

He nodded and said, "Sir, I just want to know where your team came from? Have you seen my son?"

The officer looked at him and asked, "Your son? Who is your son?"

Fu Yonggen replied: "My son's name is Fu Lizong, and he is a soldier like you. He said he went to fight in the Northeast."

"Oh, that's right." The officer seemed to understand, and he immediately said kindly: "I don't know your son, but I know that they are all heroes, and your son is not in the same team as us."

"Well, I understand." Fu Yonggen stared at the team walking away step by step. News about his son was cut off, and his heart was lost. He sighed and said, "Oh, let's go home."

Seeing that it was getting dark, he spent a whole day in the city in order to inquire about his son. At this time, he walked silently on the dirt road home, feeling extremely disappointed. What should he tell his wife when he got back? Oh, my God.

, when can you open your eyes?

The setting sun sets in the west, and the sunset glow is like blood, gradually disappearing into the vastness. The bright moonlight shines on the endless plains, and also shines on the big trees on both sides of the road, but brings the uneven road into the darkness.

Several "chirps" of birds could be heard in the distance, gently floating in the air, seeming to bring a little bit of vitality to this deathly silent space.

Fu Yonggen looked at the approaching night, as if the twilight was getting thicker tonight, and the evening wind was blowing by, just like a hard-working life, full of ups and downs, and no escape from the hardships of the world.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw his second son Fu Lizu coming up to him. When Lizu saw him, he asked: "Dad, what have you been doing? Mom saw that you haven't come home all day. It's so late and you haven't come back yet. But

My mother and we are all very anxious."

Fu Yonggen said: "It's okay. I went to walk around the city. Let's go home."

My wife and Li Qiang Liguo were waiting at the door. When I saw it, my wife complained: "It's been a whole day and I can't even see a person. We cooperated with you and let someone take you away."

Fu Yonggen glanced at his wife and said, "I am an old man, who is arresting me for what?"

After entering the house, my wife, Mrs. Li, was serving rice and asked, "How is it? Is there any news about our son?"

Fu Yonggen lowered his head and said nothing. He picked up the bowl and chopsticks and ate. He went to inquire about his son, but he still hadn't eaten the grains all day long.

When Mrs. Li saw his expression, she guessed what he was talking about without asking. She sighed and turned around and went into the back room. She sat alone on the edge of the kang and quietly wiped away her tears.

The second son, Lizu, said: "Dad, I have discussed it with my mother today. How about I go to the Northeast to look for my brother?"

When Fu Yonggen heard this, he put his chopsticks on the table and said, "Are you looking for death? I don't know what's going on in Northeast China right now. I heard that the Japanese have occupied the three provinces in Northeast China, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep Peiping. Besides,

The Northeast is so big, where can you find a home for a child like you? It’s already hard to find your eldest brother, so if we try to find you again, you’re all gone, and your mother is going to die?"

"Dad, you don't know, I can't stay at home even if I don't leave. The war is getting intense right now, and every village is recruiting migrant workers. If they don't go, they will be arrested, and they will also be fined money and food. I'm already twenty, so...

It is on the village roster, and the security chiefs of all the villages have notified our family today, Mom, please tell my father." Fu Lizu explained.

Mrs. Li wiped her tears and came out of the inner room and said: "Li Zu is right. I was just thinking about how to discuss this matter with you when you come back. What kind of world is this? Can people still live?"

"Is there any use in complaining? Just blame these Japanese devils. These stupid beasts have only bullied us Chinese." Fu Yonggen cursed angrily, and then asked his wife: "What do you say?

What to do? I don’t have any ideas, just do whatever you say.”

Mrs. Li sighed and said: "This is our fate. Our daughter has not been heard from since she left, and our eldest son's whereabouts are unknown. If the second son is captured by them again and becomes a soldier or goes to the front line to work as a military engineer, it won't be so.

Are you obviously going to put it at the gunpoint? Anyway, I will not let him go for life or death."

Fu Lizu asked: "Mom and dad, you won't let me go? Can we offend someone with a gun? Can we offend the powerful people like the security chief of our village?"

Fu Yonggen said angrily: "If you don't go, you just won't go. Let's see what they can do to us. If they don't let me live in peace, they won't be able to live in peace either. At worst, I will fight them. If I'm in a hurry, I'll kill this gang."

Bastard!"

When Mrs. Li heard this, she became anxious and said hurriedly: "Look, you are talking about those useless things again. What are you talking about to relieve your anger? Let's discuss how to deal with this matter more safely? How to escape this disaster?

?”

Li Qiang said from the side: "Hey, that's right. Mom, dad, and second brother, do you think this is okay? Let second brother run away, and then you can sneak back after hiding for a while. Wouldn't it be fine?"

"Old man, when you didn't come back, this was what the second child and I had planned. Do you think this is okay?" asked Li.

Fu Yonggen thought about it and said: "Okay, okay, what if they want someone?"

Mrs. Li said: "How do we know where our son has gone? Who did he ask for?"

Lizu and Liqiang said in unison: "Mother is right."

"That's all we can do, old lady, pack him up and leave as soon as possible." Fu Yonggen had no idea. He looked at Li Zu and said, "But where are you going outside? How are you going to live?"

With the troops in such a panic, your mother and I don't want to leave home."

Fu Lizu said: "Mom and dad, don't worry about me. I'm already twenty years old. Even if I don't have this problem, it's time for me to go out and make a living. I can work outside and support myself, so you can

Don't worry. You are getting older and older, so I don't worry about you."

"What are we worried about? Li Qiang is already seventeen and can do any kind of work. But Li Guo is a freeloader. He is almost fourteen and still naughty all day long. Besides, I don't have much of a body right now.

Don't keep it at home."

"Dad, don't always scare Li Guo from now on. He's just a kid. How can he be successful if he's not naughty? You and Mom can probably count on him in the future."

Mrs. Li handed a bundle to her second son and said with tears in her eyes: "I'll pack you two changes of clothes and some dry food for the road."

Li Zu took the baggage, bowed to his parents and said, "Mom and dad, please keep yourself safe. I will send you a message when I get back home. I'm leaving now."

"Second brother, I will escort you out of the village so as not to be seen by others." Liqiang said, "I will explore the way for you in front. I will escort you out of the village and then come back."

Fu Yonggen praised and said: "Well, okay, the third child is smarter. Go ahead and pay attention."

Fu Liqiang first stuck his head out and looked outside the door for a while. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he waved to Fu Lizu: "Second brother, please leave quickly."

The two brothers took advantage of the bright moonlight to sneak out of the village, and soon disappeared into the vast night...

Fu Yonggen and Mrs. Li waited in fear at home. Liguo had fallen asleep after playing around for a while, and Li Qiang didn't come back until midnight. As soon as there was any movement outside the window, they would immediately lie on the window sill and look out through the glass.

Look around for a while.

Seeing that Sanxingmu was turning to the west, they heard a "pop" in the yard, and then heard a "squeak" in the house door, indicating that Li Qiang was back.

He entered the room and said softly: "Mom, Dad, my second brother is fine. He's gone far away."

Ms. Li hurriedly asked: "Do you know where he went?"

"I don't know. We all know that the farther south we go, the safer it is. After we left the village, we walked southward. We walked for five or six miles and sent him out of the jurisdiction of our township. We didn't think it was safe.

That's a problem. The second brother was afraid that you would end up recording, so he urged me to come back. I guess the second brother has gone far."

Mrs. Li said reassuringly: "Oh my God, this is good."

Fu Yonggen said: "Okay, it's getting late, go to bed quickly."

In the early morning, the rising sun in the east casts rays of glow on the earth. The little male bird in the yard sang crisply, and the crystal dewdrops shone. Looking into the distance, the countryside was immersed in mist and hazy smoke.

in the realm of.

A rapid knock on the door woke up the Fu Yonggen family. They thought that everything would be fine if the second son escaped. Unexpectedly, the security guard knocked on the door early in the morning, followed by two soldiers with guns.

I heard the security chief ask in a long voice: "Lao Fu, where is your family's ancestor? Quickly ask him to get up and tidy up, and then report to the village office."

Fu Yonggen laughed and said, "It's really a coincidence that my second son went out for a wedding late yesterday and Heijie didn't come back."

"Going to get married? Where did you go to get married? You probably ran away?" The security chief went into the house and walked around. As expected, he didn't find any sign of Lizu. He turned back to Yonggen and his wife and said, "Tell you, run away."

Military service is a crime. I don’t care where he went. You must find him back tomorrow, otherwise I won’t say I’m rude to you. Humph, the monk can’t escape from the temple if he runs away, so let’s go!”

The village security chief walked out of the gate, turned around and ordered the two men with guns: "You two will guard the door of his house. If anyone goes out, follow them, or report to the village office. I want to see what you pay."

What tricks can Yonggen pull off?"
