"Brother, you should take it back. This bracelet is so big that you can't bring it out. You're afraid that people will remember it. It's more useful for you to keep it. If you exchange this for silver, you can get a lot of guns and improve the lives of your brothers.”
Since Ye Xu had said so, Zhen Tianlei could not insist. He looked at Ye Xu and cupped his fists.
"Brother, I'm convinced by you. In the future, if you need me, just say the word. Even if I have to risk my life, I want you as my brother!”
The two of them laughed heartily. Xian-er watched the commotion from the side and did not feel bored. After a while, Zhu Weishi and the three Chuan Wen brothers also came out of the guest room. Zhen Tianlei waved his hand and threw a few silver coins to the shop owner to treat everyone to a meal.
When Shopkeeper Xia came out, he was stunned for a moment. He was familiar with Zhen Tianlei. Shopkeeper Xia's warehouse and horse gang usually relied on Zhen Tianlei and the others to take care of them.
After everyone said that, they were a family, so they were naturally very happy.
However, Zhen Tianlei thought of something and called Shopkeeper Xia to the side.
"Shopkeeper Xia, a few days ago, the Japanese devils occupied Lu Shun City and set fire to the city, killing many people. You should go home and take a look.”
Shopkeeper Xia almost fainted after he finished speaking. He didn't have time to eat and hurriedly called for a car to leave.
Seeing this, Zhu Weishi couldn't be bothered to eat and called everyone to set off together.
Zhen Tianlei still had matters to attend to here and could not follow. After bidding farewell to Ye Xu, the group parted ways.
Shopkeeper Xia didn't say anything along the way. When the others knew that such a thing had happened, they were also anxious. They didn't say anything along the way. Fortunately, it was a sunny day today. Although there was snow on the road, there was no wind, so it wasn't difficult to walk.
In the afternoon, a group of people arrived outside Lu Shun City. Shopkeeper Xia found a farmer he was familiar with and arranged for Zhu Weishi and the others to enter the city alone.
Lu Shuncheng had changed a long time ago. Many houses in the city had been burned to the ground, and the streets were filled with corpses. Those who were lucky enough to survive were sitting at the side in a daze, their tears long gone.
Shopkeeper Xia didn't dare to take a closer look and went straight to his own warehouse. When he reached the door, tears flowed down uncontrollably. It was because the door of the inn was wide open and the corpses in the courtyard could be seen from outside.
"Shufang, Yuqing, Yushu!"
Shopkeeper Xia called out the names of his relatives, but he saw familiar faces on the ground. His wife and children had all been killed by the devils.
"Bloody devils! Even if I, Xia Yuanzhang, become a ghost, I won't let you off!!”
Shopkeeper Xia cried bitterly, and the rice vat at the side made a sound. A little girl carefully poked her head out and called out timidly,"Father!"
Shopkeeper Xia turned around and saw his own daughter, Yu Shu. He scrambled over and hugged Yu Shu in his embrace, and cried,""Yu Shu! My good daughter! You're still alive, my daughter!"
Xia Yushu's eyes were red as well. Patting Shopkeeper Xia's face, he wailed,"Father, why are you only back now? His mother, brother, and grandparents were all killed!!”
The two of them cried for a while, then Xia Yushu took out a package from his bosom. There were a few hundred silver coins inside, and he handed it to Manager Xia."Father, Mother told me to hide this. She told me to leave it for you.”
Shopkeeper Xia held the silver coins in his hand and tears flowed down his face unknowingly.
The two of them didn't dare to stay any longer. Shopkeeper Xia packed up a few pieces of clothes, carried the box, and left Lu Shuncheng with Yushu. When he arrived at the farmer's house, he said to Zhu Weishi,""Sister-in-law, my home is gone. My wife, children, and in-laws were killed by the Japanese. I can only go to Yuan Bao Town to seek refuge with my father.”
"That's good. We'll travel together and take care of each other.”
Mrs. Zhu also wiped her tears. After dinner, they packed their things and planned to leave at night because they were afraid of the Japanese. Fortunately, there was a train station here. Once they got on the train, they arrived at Yuanbao Town in one night.
The snow came as it pleased.
When they got off the train, it was snowing heavily outside the small train station. There were many people waiting outside to get on the train. It was very lively.
"Chuanwu, protect our mother.”
Ye Xu protected Xian 'er and squeezed out from the exit. A paperboy waved the newspaper in his hand and shouted,"Breaking news, breaking news, the Japanese war was fierce. The devils captured Lu Shun and massacred the city for three days. Read the news!”
Shopkeeper Xia bought a newspaper from the side. As he read it, tears streamed down his face. The group of people left the station and saw someone picking them up from afar.
It was the old Shopkeeper Xia who had received the news long ago.
"Father."
Shopkeeper Xia hugged the jade book and walked forward, crying for a while.
The old shopkeeper looked at Shopkeeper Xia with heartache and sighed,"
"Yuanzhang, don't cry. We are good men, we shed blood but don't shed tears. The Japanese are so vicious. They fought with the Russians in front of our house for no reason. After winning, they killed our people. They burned, killed, robbed, and committed all kinds of evil. What a beast! You're even worse than an animal!"
"We will remember this debt for generations to come. We will take revenge sooner or later! You came at the right time. I'm old and can't do it anymore. In the future, I'll hand over the business of Chun Hesheng to you.”
The two of them chatted for a while, and the old shopkeeper picked up Yu Shu, intending to get into the car. Shopkeeper Xia, who was by the side, hurriedly said,
"Father, I still have a few companions. They are from our Yuan Bao Town's Cattle Valley. It's all thanks to them along the way. They are my saviors.”
