There is a very famous restaurant in Longling County, called Longyanlou. Wu Wei, the shopkeeper of the restaurant, is from Sichuan.

Wu Wei was in his forties and died of his father under ten years old. He followed his mother to live by begging and wandered around.

Yang Rong's father came to Dali one winter more than thirty years ago. At the entrance of the inn where he stayed, he saw Wu Wei and his daughter almost freezing to death.

At that time, although Wu Wei's mother was not covered in clothes and had a disheveled face, she still had figure and appearance. Yang Rong's father was suave in his early years and was a famous charity. So he brought Wu Wei and his son back to Tengchong and took Wu as his mother's concubine. Wu Wei naturally became an adopted son of Yang Rong's father.

But Yang Rong's mother was a famous tigress, and she could not tolerate Yang Rong's father bringing Wu Wei and his son home, so Yang Rong's father settled the mother and son in Longling County.

Although Wu Wei's mother was in a down-and-out, she worked as a fire-burning girl at a local rich man's house before getting married. She learned how to cook and cook good food from the chef.

Yang Rong's father bought a restaurant in the downtown area of ​​Longling City that could not continue to do business, and was run by Wu Wei's mother.

Unexpectedly, Wu Wei's mother relied on her good cooking skills to attract merchants and local wealthy soldiers to visit her for many years.

In this way, the business became more and more prosperous. Wu Wei took over the restaurant when he was 20 years old and invited a local Qing juren to write the sign "Longyanlou". Unexpectedly, after the sign was released, the business became even more popular, which squeezed out the two restaurants next door. Wu Wei did not do anything, but let the shopkeepers of these two families join the Longyanlou.

His righteous act won unanimous praise from local merchants and merchants, and also established Wu Wei's business status in Longling City, and took the position of president of Longling County Chamber of Commerce.

Yang Rong and Dong Limao and others dressed up as merchants, drove a few mules and horses, entered Longling County the next evening and settled in Longyan Building.

Wu Wei had already heard that Yang Rong had killed two soldiers in Teng. When he saw Yang Rong, he was shocked and quickly brought Dong Limao and his fours into the back hall.

"Brother, have you gone to Zheng Chengkui's village? Why are you here to go to Longling at this critical moment?" Wu Wei asked Yang Rong with a worried look on his face.

"No matter how bad my Yang family is, I can't be a bandit! It's just a temporary solution to join Zheng Chengkui, but it won't last long! Brother, I really have no choice but to come to you. If my brother is afraid that I will implicate you, I will leave tomorrow morning." Before he found out whether Wu Wei was close to Japan, Yang Rong could not clearly explain the purpose of coming to Wu Wei.

"What are you talking about? Brother, can I have today? Isn't it all given by your old man? Brother, please stay here, don't show your face anymore. It's just where your brother and sister and nephew are now? Why don't you bring them together?" Wu Wei didn't seem to be hypocritical.

In such a critical moment, it is easiest to see a person's nature clearly.

Dong Limao never spoke and quietly observed Wu Wei's every move.

"I'm in chaos. I don't know if my brother is still in Longling City, so it's not convenient to bring them together. As long as you are willing to take us in, my brother, I will find the right opportunity to bring them." Yang Rong said with tears in his eyes.

"After hearing about your accident, brother, I sent someone to Tengchong to inquire about the whereabouts of your family. When I heard that Zheng Chengkui's village had been in a row, I felt much more at ease. At least I could save my family's life. I wanted to wait until the situation was calm before I could go to the village to pick up my family to Longling." Wu Wei's eyes were filled with tears: "Ah... the country is in danger, and it is the common people who suffer. The Japanese devils failed to withdraw in order to search for those who were unable to withdraw.

The senior military and political officials who left the country arrested young and middle-aged people in Longling, Mangshi, Ruili, Wanding and other towns that were mainly stationed in the past, and they were killed more. Even the local people were shot or beheaded as soldiers. A few days ago, the entire Longling County was filled with blood. The Japanese did not regard us Chinese as humans!"

"Brother, why don't you escape back to the mainland? Are you unable to give up this family business?" Yang Rong asked tentatively.

Wu Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "No matter how big the family business is, no one is alive! I took my family with me. As soon as I left the city, I heard that Huitong Bridge was bombed and there was still fighting on the bridge shore. The Japanese doubled the anger of the bombing of the bridge on the people who fled along the way, killing and setting fires everywhere. After hearing this news, I immediately returned and thought that staying in the city was safer than on the road. I was a restaurant and had never done anything harmful to the gods. God will bless my family.

Ping An, let’s talk about it, the Japanese are also humans, so they have to eat, so after I came back, I continued to open my restaurant. I don’t believe that the Japanese would kill all of us who do business, so where would they get military pay and food in the future? Not to mention, I’m the right brother to this move! After the Japanese entered the city, they really never came to my restaurant to catch people. There were even many officials who brought some people who worked for them to come to me to eat and drink."

Yang Rong glanced at Dong Limao and said, "Is he reliable?"

Dong Limao nodded gently, answering Yang Rong. He believed that if Wu Wei had been accustomed to Japan, he would not have said that a Japanese officer would have brought people who worked for the Japanese to his Longyan Building to eat and drink.

"So, my brother often deals with Japanese officers. Aren't you afraid of them?" Yang Rong asked again.

"Afraid..." Wu Wei said helplessly: "Brother, you know that my life was given by the old man. At that time, when my mother and I were in Dali, if there was no old man, we would have been frozen to death if we were not starved to death. After living for many years, we would have sent my miserable mother to the end. I feel that life is already considered sufficient. Even if the Japanese don't like me one day and chopped my head with a knife, I will admit it! However, as a dignified Chinese, I can't do anything about my compatriots!"

While talking, the restaurant staff brought the meal and filled the Eight Immortals table. Yang Rong and Wu Wei said the most, while Dong Limao and others only asked and answered one by one, and did not say too much.

Seeing Wu Wei blushing with his face, Dong Limaocai asked: "Boss Wu, where are the most powerful officers and soldiers arrested by the Japanese?"

Wu Wei's eyes were drunk and burped, saying, "The soldiers were detained in the county middle school, and the officers were detained alone. In the past county prison...uh...brother, why did you ask about this?"

"Oh... I'm curious, hehe..." Dong Limao said with a giggle: "I don't know what the Japanese will do to these people?"

Wu Wei pulled his hand horizontally around his neck: "Kill!"

"Kill..." Dong Limao was shocked: "How did Boss Wu know? It's not that easy to kill so many captured officers and soldiers, right?"

"I heard from Li Xiangyun, uh... Li Xiangyun was the former secretary of the National Government, and now he has become a Japanese lackey! This dog...uh... is so majestic now. He has become a pseudo-county magistrate of Longling County! In the past, before the Japanese came, he often brought those important personnel from above to my Longyan Building to eat and drink, which has benefited me a lot. Now he is a dog! He is still thinking about the fragrance of my food. The day before yesterday...uh... he also drank a drink with me, and I learned from him that he had a good idea.

The Japanese were discussing how to kill the captured officers and soldiers... Uh... He actually showed off in front of me, saying that he had an idea for the Japanese... Uh... He said that they would all be escorted to Songshan to build the fortress, and after the fortress was completed, they would be buried alive... He also said that he was talking to the Chinese, which was to fight for the officers and soldiers who should be killed to live longer! It was really not a thing... Uh..." After Wu Wei said that, he picked up a full glass of wine and poured it into his stomach.

Dong Limao had known that Songshan would build a fortress, but he didn't know who built it. It turned out that the Japanese devils wanted to use captured officers and soldiers to build the fortress on the top of Songshan. What he is sure about now is that Wu Wei can believe it.

That night, Dong Limao did not tell Wu Wei that he would help. But he made a decision that the Japanese could not send the captured officers and soldiers to Songshan to build fortifications like that. He had the responsibility to save them. If they could not save them in the city, they would save them in the mountains.

The next morning, Dong Limao asked Yang Rong to call Wu Wei to the room where he slept, explain his purpose this time, and explain that he would prepare to rescue the captured officers and soldiers.

"Boss Wu, if you are unwilling to take this risk, I won't force you. If you are still doing your business, we will find another way." Dong Limao said at the end.

Wu Wei looked at Yang Rong, then Dong Limao, with a smile on his face and said, "Before my mother was alive, she was a devout Buddhist. She warned me all day long that people should do good deeds and accumulate virtues. The Buddha said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, not to mention what you want me to do is to save so many lives. Ge! I did it! Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Dong Limao nodded and said, "Boss Wu, you have to think about it. If this matter cannot be done, it may bring disaster to your whole family."

Wu Wei looked at Yang Rong and said, "At worst, I will take my whole family to become a bandit for bandits!"

"Let's do this, you'll let your family go to Zheng Chengkui's village first, and then we'll do big things." Dong Limao said this to dispel Wu Wei's concerns. He believed in Wu Wei, but he couldn't guarantee that his family would leak news. This was the best of both worlds.

"Okay, I'll send them away today, but I need your brother to help introduce them to Zheng Chengkui." Wu Wei looked at Yang Rong and said.

"My sister-in-law and the children are kept in my hands, and I will go with them." Yang Rong nodded and said.

Wu Wei did it as soon as he said that day, at noon, he went to Li Xiangyun and asked for a pass, saying that a friend would take his family to the Mangshi branch to prepare for a reopening of business, because Longyanlou had a branch in Mangshi, which was closed after the Japanese came.

On the night after sending Yang Rong and his little one away, Wu Wei invited Li Xiangyun to Longyanlou for dinner and asked for the specific date of escorting the captured officers and soldiers to Songshan.
