Chapter 31 Temporary Residence in Mountain Village
"Oh, I'm still a handsome girl!" Aunt Wang widened her eyes and made a surprise sound.
Zhao Tie smiled and put down Chen Chen's baggage and said, "Her name is Damei, she is young, please take care of her."
"I didn't say that, your aunt, I like my daughter the most, just a companion with my family." After Aunt Wang found out that Chen Chen was a girl, she became more enthusiastic and kind, "Damei, right? She is so amazing with a gun. Just treat this as your own family, and talk when you are thirsty and hungry."
Chen Chen took off his cloak and said, "Don't be polite, I'm not staying for a day or two, which is causing you trouble!"
"Not bother, not at all." Aunt Wang touched the kang and said, "Seeing that you are so tired, I'll take a basin of hot water. You burn your feet and get tired and have a good sleep."
As he said that, Aunt Wang turned around and went out to work.
Chen Chen covered his mouth, yawned a lot, and leaned on the quilt with no image.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Zhao Tie said to Shen Chen and left.
Aunt Wang brought hot water, Chen Chenqiang took some energy to wash up, and burned his feet, then fell on the kang in a daze, and fell asleep quickly.
It took me more than ten hours to sleep. Aunt Wang's family members tried to be as light as possible. Zhao Tie came here once, and when he heard Aunt Wang say that she was still asleep, he turned around and left.
When Chen Chen finally woke up while yawning, he was hungry and opened his eyes only after being alarmed.
Although he was asleep, the gun was right next to him, and he was treated the same as Shen Chen. When he turned over and scratched, he would subconsciously touch it. In the middle of dreams and half awake, he could sleep soundly in a blink of an eye.
When he was hungry, he slept lightly. With the gun, Chen Chen immediately opened his eyes alertly.
The eyes were filled with big black eyes, shining with a shining and envious light. Seeing Chen Chen woke up, the light suddenly disappeared, turning into fear and anxiety, and his hand was quickly pulled back from the gun.
Chen Chen saw clearly that it was a girl with two braids hanging around his ears and a faint fur on his face.
"What are you doing?" Chen Chen felt that the danger was not high, his tone was a little relieved, and he did not scold him loudly.
The girl smiled awkwardly and said stutteringly: "I, I'll touch it."
Chen Chen sat up, yawned, took the clothes next to him and asked casually, "You belong to this family, what do you call Aunt Wang?"
"That's my mother." The girl stood beside the kang, pinching the corner of her clothes with her hands, and said, "My name is Juzi, it's Qiqi. Can you call you Sister Damei?"
"Okay!" Chen Chen didn't care whether he seemed to be bigger than him, and he didn't wear a cloak or something. He got off the kang in his shoes, looked at his watch, and smiled and said, "I've been sleeping for so long, and I'm hungry."
Kikuko hurriedly said, "I'll go and warm you up, it'll be fine in a while." Then, she turned around and walked out.
Chen Chen also followed him out, fetched water, washed up, and before he returned to the house, Juzi brought the food in.
"Seeing that you are sleeping soundly, I didn't call you. I missed several times." Juzi put her close attentively and glanced at her eyes. Chen Chen knew her little thoughts.
Two buns mixed with noodles, corn paste, pickles, and two boiled eggs. Chen Chen knew that it was specially prepared for him.
Chen Chen was not polite, thanked him and sat down to have a meal.
Kikuko was with her side, talking nonsense, "I have seen female soldiers in the army, but they are not as majestic as you, and they don't have guns! Look at you, there are two."
Chen Chen smiled and said, "What I stolen is my own!"
Kikuko widened her eyes in surprise, with admiration on her face and said, "Then you are so powerful. I also have a gun, but unfortunately it is a bird gun, so I can only hit rabbits."
Chen Chen put down the porridge bowl, took the spear from the kang, pulled the bullet out, handed it to Juzi, and smiled and said, "It's a roundabout way, just say it if you want to fiddle with it! I'll teach you when I finish my meal."
Kikuko smiled embarrassedly, but she didn't delay her hand. She took it over and over again and touched it, and then started to work on it unfamiliarly.
Now it's quiet, Chen Chen can concentrate on his meal.
The food was cleaned up like a wind storm. Chen Chen breathed comfortably and sat down on the kang, looking at the chrysanthemum that was not enough with a smile.
Juzi reluctantly put down her gun, cleaned up the dishes and brought Chen Chen a bowl of hot water.
After rinsing his mouth, Chen Chen picked up the gun, signaled Juzi to sit closer, and began to explain to her the structure and use of the gun.
Kikuko remembered it carefully and soon she almost mastered it. She took the gun again, pressed the bullet, pulled the bolt, and held it up to aim. She had the experience of using a earth gun, and her movements looked a little bit.
Juzi practiced it over and over again, and finally returned the gun to Chen Chen reluctantly and asked with anticipation: "Are you still recruiting people? Do you think I can do it?"
Chen Chen scratched his head and said uncertainly: "Well, you have to ask Brother Tie and Lao Zhou, and they will only have to say it."
"If you can recruit you, why can't you recruit me?" Juzi looked at Chen Chen and said dissatisfiedly: "If I have to steal the gun before I can take it away, I will go out of the mountain to find a way."
Is the gun so easy to grab? Chen Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, "You'd better ask clearly first, don't go out rashly."
"Sister Damei, how did you join?" Juzi felt that there was a precedent and she had great hope, so she immediately asked.
"What am I?" Chen Chen thought for a while and said, "I dare to kill the Japanese, and I have killed several more!"
As he said that, he raised his spear and made a goal and shooting, with a voice in his mouth, "The buzzing of the Japanese brain made the Japanese brain burst like a rotten watermelon; the buzzing of the Japanese intestines and stomachs rotten, and the colorful flowed all over the floor."
Kikuko frowned, looking uncomfortable, and was very uncomfortable with this bloody and disgusting description.
Chen Chen smiled, jumped off the kang, put on his cloak, put on his hat, and then packed his clothes.
"Sister Damei, what are you doing?" Kikuzi asked in confusion.
"I'll go out for a walk." Chen Chen said: "Look at the terrain of this village, then go to find Brother Tie to see if there is any action?"
"I'll accompany you!" Kikuko said, "You are not familiar with the village, so I'll give you a way."
Chen Chen nodded and waited for Kuzuko to get dressed. The two of them went out and walked onto the street.
The small mountain village is not big, with only more than 30 families in total, arranged along a street. In remote areas, it became an insurance policy during this war.
Stepping on the snow and creaking under his feet, the two walked from one end of the village to the other end of the village. Even with the introduction of Kikuko, it would only take a while.
A large courtyard in the village has a black painted door. The paint has fallen off a lot and becomes mottled and ugly. Next to the door is a big locust tree, covered with snow, as if wearing a white hat.
"Brother Zhao and the others live here." Juzi pointed and said, "This is the most decent house in our village, which belongs to He Laocai's family. After the incident, he took his whole family to the south, and the house was empty. A housekeeper left, and he also ran away last year."
Chen Chen nodded and said, "Let's go and ask them if there is anything wrong. You can lead me around the village."
Juzi is quite willing to be with Shen Chen. She is both a woman, so she has no hurdles, and she really admires Chen Chen.
Leading Chen Chen out of the village, Chen Chen remembered that they walked when they came in.
"If you want to come to our village, you can only walk this road." Juzi pointed and said, "The Japanese didn't see them in remote areas. The closest time was when the Japanese arrived in Zhangzhuang more than ten miles away, burned and killed them, and the black smoke could be seen here."
Chen Chen raised his telescope to look at it, but he couldn't see it. What Juzi said about Zhangzhuang was blocked by the ridge or the woods.
Turning his head, just as he saw Juzi looking at him curiously and enviously, Chen Chen smiled, handed the telescope over, and said, "The telescope can see clearly in the distance."
Of course, Kuzuko had never seen this thing before. She even heard of the name for the first time. She took it solemnly, looked around like Chen Chen, and kept stuttering in her mouth.
After a bit of fun, Juzi returned the telescope to Chen Chen, and at his request, he led him around the back of the village.
Behind the village is the hillside, and further into the mountains and forests are deep mountains. Juzi told Chen Chen that there is no village or home inside!
"My father took me into the mountains to hunt." Juzi did not show off, but said that she was not an ordinary daughter. "There are wooden houses on the hillside, which are forbidden boars, wolves, and leopards, which harmed the villagers. Not long ago, there was a wolf down the slope and almost entered the village to take away the children."
The chrysanthemum was starting to open, and she couldn't stop it, telling stories about wild beasts vividly.
There was a 10-year-old girl in the village who was picking up firewood on the mountain. Before the sky was dark, an old wolf with a white tail quietly approached from behind her.
At first, the little girl thought it was a dog, so she didn't take it much. The old wolf approached, stood up, and put his front paws on the little girl's shoulder. When the little girl turned around, the cunning old wolf bit her throat, swung it back, and ran away with her back.
Listening to these rumors in the mountains, Chen Chen just laughed at the news and thought it was impossible.
But the wolf killed a little girl. After continuous transmission and processing, it turned out to be like this. There is even a bizarre story about a wolf who could imitate a child crying and take the opportunity to bite the old lady who opened the door to death.
Although he saw that Chen Chen didn't believe it, Ju Le still told him how to deal with it once he met a wolf. What is "a wolf with a steel brain, iron tail, tofu waist, and numb legs", and what is "a dog is afraid of bent over, and a wolf is afraid of aiming".
"There is an old wolf in the mountains, and it's almost a sperm. I heard that the hair on the tail is white." Kuzuko was still telling stories, and she believed it firmly, "Everyone nearby knows it, it's amazing and cunning. My father didn't hit it when he entered the mountain several times."
Just a cunning old wolf, he can still become a spirit, so why not become a monster?
Chen Chen listened and looked around. The village was surrounded by mountains and forests, and it might not be easy to completely prevent wild animals.
But this village is indeed safer and has no strategic value. It is easy for villagers to run into the mountains, as long as the warning is timely.
As I was talking, I saw a few people appearing on the mountain and walking down the hillside path.
Chen Chen looked at it with a telescope and recognized it as miners such as Lao Zhou and Erhuzi, but the other person did not know him.
Handing the telescope to Kikuko, Chen Chen asked, "Look at who is the one wearing a fur coat? Is it the one from Murakami?"
Kikuko just glanced at it and laughed, "That's my father, and he's still carrying his prey!"
Your father is old enough.
Chen Chen thought again, and the age difference between Aunt Wang and Juzi is quite different! He felt that the Juzi family should not be the only daughter, but he was afraid that she would touch other people's pain, so he didn't ask.
Lao Zhou and others walked downhill and saw Chen Chen and Juzi in the distance. The main reason was that Chen Chen's dress looked special and was easy to recognize.
Chen Chen didn't leave either. Since he met, he simply asked here. If he was fine, he wouldn't go to that big yard.
Lao Zhou and others went to hide the sulfur, not far from the village, led by Ju Zi's father and hid it in a cave. After sweeping it over, they took it out.
Not far away, Old Zhou raised his hand and greeted, "Damei, and Juzi. What are you doing here?"
Chen Chen waited for Lao Zhou and the others to get closer, and then said, "I want to get familiar with the village, so I let Ju Zi lead me out and go around."
"Familiar with the terrain?" Lao Zhou asked, and before Chen Chen could answer, he nodded and said, "It should be like this. Although this village is remote, I dare not guarantee that the Japanese will definitely not come. It is always good to make more preparations."
Chen Chen smiled and said hello to Ju Zi’s father, “Hello, uncle.”
Mr. Wang laughed and said, "Damei, right? I heard from Old Zhou, but it's an amazing girl. I'm lucky today. I beat a wild wolf and go back to cook meat for you to eat!"
Chen Chen tilted his head and looked at it, and was also a little curious. It could be that the old wolf who became a sperm? It doesn’t have white hair, that shouldn’t be it.
"It's not that old wolf." Kuzuko said, "The old wolf's tail is halfway. It was hit by a clip, and he bit off his tail and escaped."
The poisonous snake gnaws his wrist, and the hero breaks his arms. If this old wolf has such a ruthless decision, it would be really amazing.
Chen Chen nodded slightly, his original contempt was reduced a little.
It turns out that the wolf may not be so cunning. Fighting with others is nothing. As long as you survive, it is strange that you don’t become cunning.
Several people greeted each other and walked towards the village together.
"Uncle Zhou, we have no action for the time being, right?" Chen Chen asked, "If you have any plans, tell me in advance, and I'm ready."
Old Zhou pondered for a moment and said, "Zhao Tie and Zhuzi are going to find their superiors and contact other guerrillas. I think it will take a few days before there will be news. Well, you can stay in peace and have a good rest first."
Chen Chen nodded, pointed to the distance, and suggested: "Uncle Zhou, is there a warning post there? If an enemy comes, you should be able to get more time to evacuate."
Old Zhou looked along the place Chen Chen pointed, and smiled and said, "I have eyesight. But don't worry, there is a message tree from Murakami, there is no problem."
Chen Chen smiled, feeling that it was not in vain to ask, at least he could really feel relieved.
