Chapter 257 An ominous premonition
General Hu meant to let her run away on her own, but instead of letting her go, he asked him to call her Taijun.
What is going on?
General Hu wanted to say something when he felt a pain in his waist. Fubao took out a rope from somewhere and tied him tightly to his back, then jumped onto the tree outside the window.
The guards downstairs have come up, and almost everyone in the guesthouse has woken up.
The lights came on one after another, and the guards who came up first started shooting at the two men.
Fubao carried General Tiger on his back and dodged left and right on the roof, tree trunks, and walls. General Tiger held on to Fubao's clothes tightly and didn't dare to breathe.
Bullets whizzed past his ears. He huddled on Fubao's back. From this position, he would have to catch any bullet that hit him.
He secretly groaned in his heart, thinking that the Red Side actually didn't need to send anyone to rescue him. If no one came to rescue him, he could still live a little longer, but if they did, he would probably die in an instant.
Fortunately, this young comrade is agile and strong, and he can jump up and down, climb walls and run fast while carrying someone on his back.
But General Hu was still afraid. More and more guards were chasing him from behind, and the sound of gunfire was as dense as firecrackers. He asked tentatively: "Grandma...Grandma, how about giving me a gun and I can stop them?"
Fubao was running at full speed and replied to him in Japanese.
Fu Bao's Japanese language skills were average, but General Hu could understand a little bit. She probably meant, "Don't stop them. They can't catch up. I don't want to kill them. If they wanted to kill me, I would have killed them long ago."
General Hu rolled his eyes silently behind her and thought: Go ahead and brag, young comrades nowadays are so arrogant.
As he spoke, Fubao jumped out of the yard, took out four smoke bombs and threw them back. Suddenly, a cough was heard from inside the wall.
Fubao ran for a while and then she and General Hu hid in a dry drainage ditch on the side of the road. From afar they could hear the guards searching in several directions for people.
General Hu whispered, "This is Lao Jiang's territory. Let's get out of here quickly."
Fubao said hurriedly: "No, I still have to rescue Liuzi. Let me find a hiding place for you first, you hide for a while, and when I bring Liuzi out, we will run together."
It's winter, the trees are bare, the mountains are bare, where can we hide?
Fubao tilted his head and looked around, and found a lantern lit not far away, which seemed to be a village.
"Let's go over there."
She ran very fast in front, and General Tiger was chasing her breathlessly behind.
After a while, Fubao turned around and came back to pick him up, "Come on, I've arranged everything."
General Hu was originally puzzled. How could anyone be willing to take in a stranger of unknown origin in the middle of the night?
How did this young comrade convince others?
When he arrived at the gate of that house and saw the white lantern at the door, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
The yard was silent. He looked out and saw a coffin parked in the yard and two people keeping vigil sleeping on the table.
He realized that Fubao had not convinced them at all. She didn't even say hello to them. She just knocked out the two people who were guarding the body with two sticks, and then said to him righteously: "I have arranged everything."
General Hu was silent for a moment. He looked around and said, "You won't let me get into the coffin, will you?"
Fu Bao smiled and said, "We really have a tacit understanding. That's what I thought. Don't worry, there's no one in the coffin. The family didn't find the body, so they put a few clothes in it. I dug a ventilation hole for you, you can hide in there, and I'll come pick you up after you save Liuzi."
General Hu sighed silently and said nothing.
After this night, he felt that he was lucky to be alive until now, so it didn't matter anymore.
Fubao pushed open the coffin lid, and he silently rolled in and lay down. Fubao then carefully closed the coffin lid on him.
At this moment, half of the guards were conducting a carpet search within a radius of twenty miles.
The officer in charge of the search was so anxious that he jumped up and down. His subordinates next to him advised him, "Captain, let's go back. There is no clue at all. Where can we look for it?"
The officer said angrily, "Shut up. We have to look for him even if we can't find him. Even if we have to dig deep into the ground, we have to find him for me.
How can I explain to my superiors that a living person was missing out of nowhere?"
The subordinate thought about it and advised: "Although General Hu has been kidnapped, Xiao Zhang is still here. Why don't we go back and guard that one? We can't lose both of them, right?"
The officer glared at him fiercely and said, "Nonsense! The enemy has been alerted. Captain Cao is now leading another team to stand guard outside Xiao Zhang's house. What are you afraid of?
Even if the enemy is a fool, they won't risk coming to the guesthouse tonight. Stop being lazy and search for me!"
While they were talking, Fubao was listening quietly in the dark.
She thought: You thought I wouldn't come, but I came anyway. What does the book say? This is called doing the opposite of what is expected.
After this unexpected incident, the guards at the guesthouse were forced to work overtime.
There was no news from the search team, and Captain Cao was extremely anxious. He held his gun and kept walking in the corridor.
Liuzi listened to the footsteps outside the door and hid his head in the quilt. After a while, he couldn't stand it anymore and opened the door suddenly: "Can you be quiet for a while? I want to sleep."
Captain Cao apologized, "This happened suddenly, and we had no choice but to do this. Please forgive me, sir."
Captain Cao's polite attitude slightly extinguished Liuzi's anger.
Liuzi thought for a moment and asked, "Who is this person? Can you tell me?"
Captain Cao said: "They should be sent by the Japanese."
Liuzi frowned, "Are there any evidence?"
"The guards heard them speaking Japanese."
"How many people are coming from the other side?"
"one."
"one?"
"Yes, a woman carried General Hucheng away on her back."
Liu Zi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Captain Cao, if you don't want to tell me, you don't have to tell me. What's the point of talking nonsense?
General Hu weighs at least 150 kilograms. If a woman runs away carrying him on her back, will you not be able to catch up with him?"
Captain Cao complained, "That's true. We are also considering how to report this to our superiors. If we report the truth, I'm afraid no one will believe us."
He spoke very sincerely. Liuzi thought for a moment, "If they are really sent by the Japanese, you don't have to stand guard outside my house. Between me, Zhang, and the Japanese, there is not only a national hatred, but also a hatred for the murder of my father. They will not come to rescue me."
Captain Cao pursed his lips and said nothing, but nodded in agreement in his heart. It made sense. He felt that he didn't need to work overtime tonight.
Liuzi closed the door and went back into the house, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
How could the Japanese come to rescue General Hu? This doesn't make sense.
Is there really a woman who ran away with him? Liuzi couldn't imagine what that scene would be like. He shook his head silently and thought to himself: If there really is such a woman, I would like to meet her.
Thinking of this, he picked up the thermos on the table and prepared to pour a glass of water, when he suddenly saw a pair of feet on the ground.
He looked up and saw a woman hiding behind the partition, looking at him with a smile.
Liuzi's hand slipped and the cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces with a loud crash.
