"The person named Xu should be in the inner courtyard, right?" Ma Liang asked Hu Yi in a low voice without drinking wine and almost full of food.
"They must be all close relatives of the Xu family over there. I asked someone just now and that traitor Xu Jinsen is in there." The monkey is small and can't eat as much as others. He put down his chopsticks long ago and wandered around a few times. return.
"If you don't have an acquaintance to guide you, you will definitely not be able to enter the Xu family's inner courtyard!" Pu Buhuan burped and looked at the door of the inner courtyard.
"There are so many Japanese people watching the show outside. I think no matter what happens, the man named Xu will come out and say hello." Ma Liang analyzed himself again.
"What the hell, if we don't do anything tonight, it doesn't matter whether he comes out or not!" How about we go over there to watch a show first? "After Tang Dagou finished speaking, he spit out a bone from his mouth.
"I think this battle is really impossible to fight. There are too many enemies!" Ma Liang thought for a moment.
"Let's see if we can find a way to sneak into the inner courtyard." Hu Yi frowned as he looked at the dozen or so guards at the entrance of the inner courtyard.
The inner courtyard of Xujiazhuang is not small. The place where banquets are held is actually a square for drying grain, occupying almost two-thirds of the inner courtyard. There were a lot of drunk people, and there were also a lot of people going to the inner courtyard. They were either close friends meeting the old man, or they were nurses delivering food.
It's impossible to pretend to be delivering food, it's all the nursing home arranged by Xu himself.
The only possibility is to sneak in with the detective team members who are familiar with the Xu family.
There were not many drunk people, at least when those men in black walked to the inner courtyard, few of them fell down.
I had already asked clearly, and almost all the people walking into the inner courtyard were congratulating Mr. Xu on his birthday.
Hu Yi had long noticed that the traitors next door were almost drunk, and they just lay down on the table.
A traitor stood up, twisted his body with one hand on the table, and muttered to the few who were still drinking: "I...have...something to do tomorrow, and tonight...I have to rush back to the city...I'll go." ..Tell the captain...I have to leave first...You continue!"
"Damn it, you're not even good at drinking. How can you go back when you're so drunk? Can't you go back early tomorrow?" scolded a traitor who was slightly soberer.
"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to get up in the morning." The drunkard moved away.
Ma Liang gave Xu Xiao a wink.
Xu Xiao stood up, with a shell gun hanging on his shoulder, and came to the drunk traitor who walked away a few steps. The traitor put his left hand on his small shoulder.
The traitor looked confused and drunk: "Boy, you... are good. When you get to the county town another day, you will report... Cao Dapeng's name to the investigation team. I will protect you from walking around in the county town!"
"Hey, that's good." Xu Xiao grinned.
Everyone likes this kind of atmosphere, no matter common people, traitors or Japanese, they can eat, drink and watch plays. Life is like this, what more can you ask for.
Therefore, both Park Buhuan and Tang Dagou supported each other and rushed to the stage.
It wasn't because they were drunk, but because Pu Buhuan and Tang Dagou ate too much and couldn't bear the temptation of playing gongs and drums on the stage.
Hu Yi and Ma Liang sat at the table and continued eating slowly.
A canvas satchel was filled with chickens and ducks wrapped in oil paper.
The traitor's family is very generous. Whenever they see that there are few dishes on the table, someone will immediately bring them to them.
It’s not that no one saw Ma Liang packing, and no one said anything.
Because there are not a few people who do this.
"Captain Hu, have you all eaten?" A busboy carrying dishes and chopsticks came to the two of them with a basket.
"Yang Laoshi, come and have a drink!" Ma Liang enthusiastically pulled the visitor onto a stool and pushed the public wine bowl on the table in front of the visitor.
"Captain Ma, I'm busy right now." The visitor didn't drink, he was busy putting the empty bowls on the table into the basket.
"What's going on in the inner court?" Hu Yi lowered his voice.
"I'm not sure. I went in just now when I was clearing the tables. After passing through, there is an inner courtyard gate. The situation inside is similar to the outside, except that the place is smaller. There are eighteen tables inside, and Xu Jinsen is accompanying a Japanese soldier. The officials are drinking in the inner hall, and we idiots like us have very few opportunities to come to the village, and we have never found a chance to go in. Wait a while, someone will arrange accommodation for you, and we will see the situation at that time." After finishing speaking. Turn around.
"Captain Hu, you guys eat slowly, be sure to eat and drink well." Yang Laoshi stacked the empty bowls on the table, put them in the basket, and walked straight to the table next to him.
Xu Xiao helped Cao Dapeng to the door of the inner courtyard. Cao Dapeng and the guard guarding the gate should be acquaintances. After greeting each other, the two staggered into the inner courtyard.
A semicircular wall separates the front yard and the back yard. All the doors inside are open, and there is a faintly visible yard. There is a two-story wooden building in the front, and a row of large tile-roofed houses on both sides. Most of the houses have Shine light.
A dozen or so oil-stained torches illuminated the inner courtyard. There were more than a dozen tables, almost half of which were empty. The remaining five or six tables were full, with more people drinking and fewer eating. Those holding wine bowls were rushing around, gathering in a group, and the wine men were shouting loudly.
The hall on the first floor of the small building was even more crowded with men and women, making noise at the wine table, and a group of children were running around.
The monkey went outside the village. After all, the common people were just fellow villagers with the Xu family. Most of the men finished their meal, packed their bags, and went to the front yard with their baskets to watch the show. There were almost no young girls. After all, there were dozens of Japanese in the front yard. Who knows if those drunken devils will become more animalistic.
Some people who lived not far away went home happily. Although there was nothing valuable in the house, there was food that had just been recovered. If it was stolen, the whole family would not be able to survive. Although the show was beautiful, but You also have to have that skill.
Except for the nurse, there were almost no people outside the village after dark.
The monkey went out for a walk, found a dark corner, and dropped a bag of food.
Finding nothing out of the ordinary nearby, I quickly turned back.
He defecated everywhere, in the fields in the countryside, and no one cared about him. The nursing home thought that there were too many people in the hut in the courtyard, and the monkey went out to urinate, so he didn't care. He recognized the skinny traitor who had just left and smiled at the monkey. He let the monkey into the village.
Hu Yi and Ma Liang had been sitting at the table for a long time, talking in low voices.
"Brother, we have all sneaked into the den of Japanese traitors. How do you think we will fight?" Ma Liang asked in a low voice.
"The situation on site is too complicated. It is estimated that there will be more people tomorrow, and there are ordinary people who will have a headache."
"There is definitely nothing we can do during the day. There are traitors all around. As soon as we raise our guns, we will be exposed. It is too conspicuous and it is difficult to take action. And even at night, we feel it is quite embarrassing!"
"First figure out the terrain and the strength of the guards, and we'll talk about it tonight." Hu Yi was thinking carefully about how to kill the traitor named Xu.
"If nothing else happens, Xu will definitely come to the stage to speak before the banquet starts at noon tomorrow. Should we plant a few landmines to kill him?"
"Even if a landmine is planted, how can it be detonated?" Hu Yi felt that it was simply not feasible.
There was still a commotion around the stage, and Pu Buhuan's tall body stood out. He sat next to the traitors, arm-in-arms with Tang Dagou, and occasionally yelled a few words with the others.
Xiao Hongying was standing next to them, with the backs of the Japanese's heads three rows away in front of them. Her eyes would occasionally stay on the backs of those rows of heads, looking back and forth.
Not long after, a group of guards came out of the courtyard and called out different names to the crowd watching the theater. For a long time, more than a dozen people came out of the crowd reluctantly.
They were led by the nursing staff waiting beside them, and went to the inner courtyard one by one.
Such a scene did not cause much commotion. How could the performance on the stage be as attractive? But as soon as they left, the empty seats were immediately filled.
Pu Buhuan poked the traitor next to him with his hand: "Hey... what are they doing?"
"They are all the security chiefs of nearby villages. I guess Mr. Xu will take this opportunity of his birthday to give them some benefits..." The traitor who was being questioned suddenly felt that something was wrong. The person next to him seemed to have never seen him before: "Hey, Brother, from the sound of your voice, you are not a local, right?"
Pu Buhuan was stunned for a moment. There was no way to solve the accent problem, so he ignored it.
"#￥%..." A string of birdsong whispered from Pu Buhuan's mouth, shocking the idiot next to him.
"Huh? You can also sing birds?" The traitor's eyes lit up: "You are..."
"Attention, the less you know about some things, the better! Do you understand?" Pu Buhuan said with a straight face.
The traitor quickly stood up and bowed politely: "Taijun, please calm down. I understand, I understand."
"Watch the show!" Pu Buhuan ordered in a low voice.
If you eat too much and vomit loudly, it won't be worth it.
