Chapter 10 Entering the City (1/2)



It wasn't too cold to sleep near the cliff. I got up the next day and had a few bites, packed up and continued on my way. After walking for a whole morning, I finally saw the city gate. There were three big words on it (Zhenyuan Gate). I came from Wutai and went through the North Gate.

"Friends, please stop and listen to me. Let's wash up on the side of the road first. When we enter the city, don't talk nonsense and don't mention the master's name. We don't know what the master and his men are doing yet."

"Once we get into the city, we'll find a place to stay first, then find the little beggar and find out about the young master's family situation, and then make plans."

Wang Li asked, "Do you understand?"

When I approached the city gate, I saw a lot of people, lined up in two rows. I didn't see anyone on the road. Why were there so many people at the city gate? I wanted to go in for lunch at noon!

The one in front was carrying a load, one of which contained a basket of vegetables, and the other contained two rabbits.

"Hey, you don't have anything hidden in this basket, right? Your rabbit is confiscated."

"Sir, I came to the city to sell my meat, you should at least give me some money!"

A man wearing a yellow jacket and with a flat nose looked at the man with a squint and said, "Haha, you are so brave to ask your grandfather for money.

"Get out! If you delay any longer, don't come in." She pushed the man to the ground.

"Hey, why are there so many of you?" Wang Li hurriedly got out of the car. "Junye, look at what you said. My family is in the city. I have a house near Chaotianmen. My cousin is He Bagou, who is the translator for Huang Jun."

Liu Jia's son also ran over and bowed. "Sir, we are here to work for our boss."

Wang Li quickly took out five silver dollars and handed them to the dog: "Sir, I just came from the countryside and I don't have any money with me. Call my cousin some other day and we will have dinner together. I will be the host."

Another puppet soldier looked at Wang Li and smiled, "Sister, you are so generous. Let's meet again some other time. Come in, sister. Please come in."

Silly girl was a little scared, so she drove away quickly. Wang Li told her to slow down, saying that if she ran so fast, others would think she was hiding something.

There are so many hotels in this city, and I don’t know which one to stay in?

Wang Li looked at Houyetai City with mixed feelings.

"Sanniu, Mr. Liu, you should also look around and see which hotel is suitable for us to stay in. We need to stay here and have a good rest for a few days. After you have rested, I will buy you some clothes. Then you can go and ask about the master and your old man. After all, if you are well-dressed, you can get some information, right?"

Wang Li thought that she had been frightened during this period. Not to mention that they had to walk, even if she took the car by herself, she would be exhausted. She wanted to lie down and didn't want to get up.

I was very nervous when I was packing up the cars and guns, always afraid of being caught by the Japanese. Even though I was extremely nervous, I didn't dare show it. Now I can relax in the city. I will reward myself after I have a rest.

Walking down a street, there are still so many people around. Compared with other cities, Shanxi is still a good city, at least better than those places in Henan. Most people can have enough to eat. Shanxi is the home of Shanxi merchants, and there are many people doing business. Except for the occasional dogs passing by on the road, it is still relatively good compared to other places.

Looking at Taiyuan City in Shanxi Province in the 1940s, I feel emotional!

"Run, run! There's gunfire ahead again. A Red Party member is dead. Oh, don't block the road. You are really fearless. Why are you standing there? Run!"

Wang Li was standing beside the carriage, looking at the hotel opposite, when she suddenly felt a book placed in her hand. She was so scared that she almost threw it away, and quickly threw it into the space, as there was no place safer than the space.

Wang Li didn't know what was going on, so she quickly stopped the friendly-looking old man.

"Uncle, what's going on? Who are these people chasing?"

The old man looked at Wang Li and said, "You are such a horrible woman! (You scared me to death)

He lowered his head and whispered, "Why else? They are still catching the Red Party. One of them has been killed. I heard that two people are preparing to meet. You are from other places, right? Let's go."
