Just as she was thinking about something, someone came. Wei Liu shouted," Who is it? It's New Year's Eve."”
"I am Qi Zhengde." Qi Zhengde was the manager of the pawnshop, and Wei Liu had gotten rid of him to sell her horse. After all, she was a young lady, and if she were to sell such a good horse, it would attract attention, and someone might want to snatch her home.
"Uncle Qi, why are you here? Come in quickly.”Wei Liu hurried Manager Qi in. The snow outside wasn't too heavy, but the wind was strong.
"Have a cup of warm wine first. Why did you come over today? Uncle Qi, is there anything urgent?”Wei Liu quickly poured a cup of hot wine for Qi Zhengde. It was not easy to travel such a long distance.
Qi Zhengde, who was wearing a big coat, drank the wine. After a while, he recovered and replied," Xiao Liu, actually, the organization gave me a task. I know you're very good at fighting. Of course, I don't mean to ask you to join us. I just want to ask you for two favors."”
Qi Zhengde had wanted to pull Wei Liu into the organization, but after he found out Wei Liu's identity, he didn't have that thought anymore. After all, there were still people who recognized that horse.
"What favor? Can you tell me?" Wei Liu didn't reject him immediately. As long as it could cause trouble for the Japanese, she was willing to do it.
"There's no rush. There are so many dishes here. Let me have a few bites first. Er Lai's cooking skills are not bad. Do you want me to introduce him to a restaurant apprentice?”
It seemed to be something very important. Qi Zhengde would not be so casual. The fewer people who knew about it, the better. This was also a form of protection for the two children. The less they knew, the safer they were.
Mitsuyoko sensibly added a set of chopsticks and chopsticks for Qi Zhengde. The dishes were all served. Although there were only a few people at the reunion dinner, everyone was still very happy. Because they had business to attend to, they did not drink too much.
This temple was still considered big, but it was dilapidated after the monks ran out of incense. Wei Liu and Qi Zhengde were surrounding the fire in the main hall, while Second Lai and Third Lai had been sent to sleep by Liu Wei.
"We already know that the Japanese will have a big operation after the new year. The higher-ups asked me to escort a batch of medicine to the headquarters. You don't know, it's not easy on the way. These things are all medicine that the overseas Chinese saved up to get for us. As long as we have this batch of medicine, our wounded will be able to receive help.”
It was already extremely difficult to get it here. When the higher-ups gave the task to Qi Zhengde, Qi Zhengde almost turned white overnight. The Japanese were like sharks that smelled blood. The things had been transported to the warehouse in Xuejia Town a few days ago, but it would be difficult to transport them away. If Wei Liu had not given them the information, the things would have been gone.
Just as Qi Zhengde was panicking, Wei Liu came knocking on his door, saying that he wanted to sell a horse. This horse was not bad. Qi Zhengde wanted to buy it and send it to the headquarters, but he was told that the owner of this horse was the mount of the Nine Dragon Mountain female bandit, Bai Lihua.
No matter how the goods were transported, they would still have to pass through Nine Dragon Mountain. Qi Zhengde wanted to ask Wei Liu for help and asked her to find Li Zihao. With Li Zihao's help, the mission could still be completed. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they stayed here for too long.
"What do you need me to do, Uncle Qi? Just say it, as long as it's within my means.”Great principles did not have much effect on people like her. Wei Liu only helped out of hatred for the Japanese.
"The most powerful people in this generation, other than the Japanese and puppet soldiers, are your people from Nine Dragon Mountain. I want you to help escort the medicine to our Eighth Route Army.”
"I've already left Nine Dragon Mountain, Uncle Qi.”Wei Liu was silent for a while before replying.
"I know, but for the sake of the country and the people, please do me this favor.”Qi Zhengde immediately knelt down. He knew that this was a moral kidnapping, but he really had no other choice. The Japanese had been acting like crazy recently. Their people could not move on a large scale at all. They were courting death.
The firewood crackled. Wei Liu would not return to Nine Dragon Mountain. She did not know how to face Li Zihao. She looked at Qi Zhengde. It seemed that the matter was very important, which made her feel awkward.
In the end, Wei Liu handed the jade pendant he carried with him to Qi Zhengde and said," I don't want to go back. Take this to Dragon Head Mountain. I think he will help."”If Li Zihao didn't say anything, then Wei Liu felt that he had misjudged him.
Back at Longtou Mountain, time had returned to the beginning. Li Zihao was silent. No one knew what he was thinking. It was not a big deal to help the Eighth Route. Plus, with Wei Liu's jade pendant, Li Zihao would definitely help. However, this was not what he was thinking about.
Forget it, let her be! Li Zihao replied," Tell me, I'll help you." As long as I can do it, just say it.”
"This isn't difficult. It's just that the Japanese have been keeping a close eye on us recently, so we had no choice but to come to you.”
"What do you want me to do? Do you want people or guns?" Li Zihao knew that the 8th team had taken a fancy to his team.
"Now that the devils are preparing for a big sweep, we have to get the things back before the devils make a move. We have already prepared a caravan. In Xuejia Town, we have already instigated a captain of the Imperial Association Army. If the things can't be transported out, we will take action immediately. Of course, we will need your help.”Xiao Yaling said.
"You guys are making preparations for both scenarios, but I have a condition.”Li Zihao wasn't the kind of person who liked to suffer losses. He couldn't help you for nothing.
"Our Eighth Route Army doesn't have much money. Don't ask for too much.”Xiao Yaling felt that Li Zihao only wanted money.
"I know you don't have money, and I don't want money. Send her back to me.”Li Zihao couldn't bring himself to look for her personally, so he asked Xiao Yaling to ask Wei Liu. He had no intention of forcing Wei Liu to come back, so he didn't force the Eighth Route Army to send her back.
"Alright, let's try. I can't guarantee that Miss Wei will be willing to come back.”Xiao Yaling replied.
"Okay, it's settled then."
"Alright, I still have to go down the mountain.”Xiao Yaling still had many things to do, so she naturally wouldn't stay here for long.
"Aren't you staying for dinner? I think Old Ma is quite suitable for you. Do you want to look around?”
Xiao Yaling, who had just started to have a good impression of Li Zihao, felt that Li Zihao was still the same kind of person. She just had to ignore him to avoid angering herself.
It was still the beginning of the war, and the Japanese were still very arrogant. The last time they fought with the Japanese, not a single one of them surrendered. It could be seen how crazy the Japanese's imperial spirit was.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:042020185:18PM
