Zhenjiang is less than 80 kilometers away from Nanjing.
Since 1928, Zhenjiang has become the capital of Jiangsu Province.
Since the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhenjiang has been under the jurisdiction of the State of Wu and has a long history.
The Jiaoshan Mountain, Beigu Mountain and Jinshan Mountain within its territory are collectively known as the "Three Mountains of Zhenjiang".
The most famous one in Zhenjiang is probably Jinshan Temple.
In "The Legend of the White Snake", the water-filled Jinshan Mountain and Liang Hongyu beating the drum to fight against the Jinshan Mountain all happened here.
As soon as Meng Shaoyuan entered Zhenjiang, the first thing that came to his mind was the story of White Snake fighting against Fa Hai in order to save Xu Xian.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, I couldn't help humming a song from my time:
"Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain has cultivated her body in the cave for thousands of years..."
Sitting next to him was Zhu Yanni. This was the first time she heard Captain Meng humming a song, and she actually became a little obsessed with it.
After a long while, I couldn't help but ask: "Captain Meng, what kind of song is this? It sounds so good?"
Well.
Why did you hum this song?
Meng Shaoyuan was a little embarrassed: "A ditty from my hometown."
"It sounds good." Mu Dekai, who was in the front row, also turned around and said, "Captain Meng, I didn't expect you have a good voice and can sing well."
This is all practiced in KTV.
The problem is that there is no KTV in this era. Otherwise, I will sing some complete versions of the songs for you.
When we arrived in Zhenjiang, it was already noon.
Several people found a restaurant to fill their stomachs first.
Everyone ordered a bowl of Zhenjiang's famous pot noodles, a portion of Maoshan old goose, and a portion of sweet and sour dried radish.
That pot-covered noodles, if you don’t try a bowl of it when you arrive in Zhenjiang, then your visit is really in vain.
The most unique thing about pot cover noodles is that it uses "jumping noodles".
The so-called "dancing noodles" is to put the kneaded noodles on the chopping board. The master chef sits on one end of the bamboo pole and fixes the other end on the chopping board. He jumps up and down, like dancing or acrobatics, and squeezes it repeatedly to form a dough. Thin dough, cut into noodles with a knife.
This noodle is one of the top ten famous noodles in China, and is also known as "the best noodle in the world in Jiangnan".
But while they were still waiting for the noodles to be served, two gunshots suddenly sounded outside, and the people in the noodle shop were shocked.
Then, the whistle kept sounding.
Several people rushed out of the noodle shop.
I saw several policemen rushing towards me in a panic.
After a while, two more guys in Mao suits and guns in their hands rushed over.
"Comrade, one of our own!"
Xiang Shounong hurriedly stopped them and showed his ID: "You're from Nanjing, what's going on?"
These two Chinese tunic suits were also from Lixingshe. They took a look and said: "Just in time, comrade, we found a den of the Red Party, but the big leader of the Red Party in Zhenjiang has escaped and is arresting him. Do me a favor, this is the roll call at the top. Someone to arrest!”
Meng Shaoyuan felt awkward while listening. "Comrade, comrade" coming from the mouth of a Lixing Society agent sounded particularly weird to his ears.
In fact, during the Tongmenghui period, those revolutionaries had already called each other "comrades."
The "Ten-member Group" before the establishment of Lixingshe also stipulated that each other should be called "comrade".
In fact, Meng Shaoyuan also knew that this kind of title would gradually decrease after the military unification was formally established.
"Cheng, what does it look like?"
Xiang Shounong agreed immediately.
Meng Shaoyuan's teeth were itching with hatred.
You have a good meal, why are you meddling in this business?
Let’s just deal with the Japanese and traitors properly. Go and help others catch the Workers’ and Peasants’ Party. Aren’t you full of food?
The agent took out a photo: "This was given to us by the traitor among them! Be careful, the big boss is armed."
"I understand, Captain Meng, what should I do?"
what to do? How about I kick you in the butt and send you back to Nanjing?
Unfortunately, in front of so many people, Meng Shaoyuan was not able to get angry easily, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Look for us separately, I will walk alone."
As soon as the group of people separated, Meng Shaoyuan grabbed Tian Qi, who had the best marksmanship, and looked around: "Follow me, remember, don't shoot, we won't offend those people."
Tian Qi nodded knowingly.
How could Meng Shaoyuan really want to arrest people from the Workers' and Peasants' Party?
It was just perfunctory in front of the colleagues in Zhenjiang Lixing Society.
He took Tian Qi with him, firstly because his shooting skills were good, so that he wouldn't encounter a real shooter when the time came.
The second reason is to protect yourself.
Who lets his marksmanship suck?
Meng Shaoyuan vowed to practice his marksmanship well this time when he went back.
Meng Shao found an alley and went in. Meng Shao originally planned to spend some time here, and then go back and say that he didn't see anyone.
He took out the cigarette, and there were three more cigarettes inside.
In this era, I have not learned the good things, but I have learned how to smoke.
After smoking three cigarettes, get out of the way.
But what Meng Shaoyuan never expected was that when he smoked his third cigarette, a man in a long gown suddenly rushed out from around the corner.
There was also a gun in his hand.
Tian Qi reacted extremely quickly and immediately pulled out a gun and pointed it at him.
Changshan's reaction was not slow either, and he raised his gun at Tian Qi almost at the same time.
"Are you out of bullets?" Meng Shaoyuan suddenly said this.
Changsha sneered: "What do you think?"
"I said you really have no bullets." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "The moment you raised the gun, your finger had already touched the trigger. It was to prepare to shoot and die together. But you didn't do that, why? ? You are not afraid of death, but you remember that the magazine is empty. If you don’t believe it, try shooting now."
Chang Shan was startled for a moment, then gave a wry smile and threw away the empty gun: "Awesome, is there anyone as good as you among the spies? Come on, take me away and see if any of us workers and peasants are afraid of death."
Meng Shaoyuan was complaining in his heart, brother, I have already hid here, why did you rush here? I arrested you, and I feel sorry for you, the Workers’ and Peasants’ Party. If you let me go, if it leaks out, you will be linked to the Red Party, and your head will be lost, right?
He thought there for a while, no matter what, if he was asked to arrest these workers and peasants, he would never be able to do so.
Theoretically, Tian Qi would never betray himself.
Meng Shaoyuan acted as if nothing had happened: "Put down the gun. Who said we are spies? We are smugglers and gangsters. You are also a gangster, right? We go together, we go together. Farewell, farewell!"
Tian Qi really put away his gun and made way for him.
Chang Shan was stunned again, but he reacted immediately and picked up the gun from the ground: "The mountains are high and the roads are far away. You have done a good thing for us this time. We will thank you again in the future."
"Lao Qi, give him a magazine." Meng Shaoyuan saw that the model of the opponent's gun was the same as Tian Qi's, so he decided to do it to the end.
After taking the magazine Tian Qi gave him, Chang Shan was about to leave when Meng Shaoyuan spoke again:
"Go west, they are all going east. By the way, there is no need to thank you profusely. You owe me a bowl of noodles. If we meet again next time, remember to pay it back!"
