Chapter 282 Why Join
Chapter 282 Why Join
Li Jingrong said helplessly.
"Hehehe! I saw you hesitate for a moment, and I was afraid you wouldn't agree!"
Li Yunlong explained.
"To be honest, I don't really want to go, but now that you've agreed, there's no reason not to go. What do you think?"
Li Jingrong said.
"Hey hey hey! Then I'll go get the car out?"
"No, that car is very heavy, and you don't know how to drive it."
"Hey, can you teach me sometime? I want to learn how to drive, too!"
Before Li Yunlong could finish his words, Li Jingrong had already walked out of the room.
"Why are you walking so fast? You didn't even listen to me finish."
Li Yunlong said to himself.
Then he followed him out.
Li Jingrong filled the car with gas as before, then drove out. After Li Yunlong got in the car, the two of them set off towards Chang'an Avenue.
Three hours later we arrived at Chang'an Avenue.
Li Jingrong parked the car at the usual place, and then the two got out of the car.
Chang'an Avenue was still as lively as ever, and Li Jingrong began to laugh as he walked.
"Hmm? What are you laughing at, Comrade Jingrong?"
Li Yunlong asked while looking at Li Jingrong who was smiling the whole time.
"Hahaha, it's nothing. I just feel like every time we come here, we gain something different. It feels like it was arranged by God in advance."
Li Jingrong said with a smile.
"Well, now that you mention it, it's true. First, he came here to do some business, then he discovered a suspicious person, and then he found the political commissar's sister. It all seemed like it was planned in advance."
Li Yunlong analyzed.
"Who knows if something like this will happen to us again this time."
As Li Yunlong spoke, both of them laughed.
The two came to a stationery store.
As soon as I entered the door, the smell of stationery hit me.
"Hmm~ Such a strong smell of stationery!"
Li Yunlong sighed.
"Yeah, otherwise why would it be a stationery store?"
Li Jingrong said this while observing the stationery store.
After a while, the boss came out of the house holding a box of stationery.
When he saw someone in the store, he put down his stationery and greeted them with a smile.
"What would you two like to order?"
The boss asked with a smile.
"Boss, do you have any paper here?"
Li Jingrong asked.
"Do you know what kind of paper it is?"
"It's the kind of paper that's neither too big nor too small, the kind you use to write letters on."
"Oh, I have some here. How much do you want?"
"Get me a box."
Finally, the boss took out a box from the back.
"There's exactly one box here. It's all here."
Then Li Jingrong paid the money and walked out of the stationery store with the box.
"Let's go, stop wandering around, we have to go back as soon as possible."
Li Jingrong said.
But this time Li Yunlong did not force it and just responded.
Then the two of them walked towards the car.
As they walked, they heard hurried footsteps behind them.
The two turned their heads and saw a young man rushing towards them.
The two of them were also shocked.
Before the two of them could react, the young man had already hugged Li Jingrong's thigh.
"Benefactor, I finally found you, benefactor!"
The two looked at each other, at a loss.
"Young man, who are you? Did you recognize the wrong person?"
Li Yunlong said from the side.
But the young man kept repeating "benefactor, benefactor" as if Li Yunlong didn't exist.
Li Yunlong became anxious when he saw this.
Just grab him with your hands.
"Little bastard, I'm asking you a question, why aren't you speaking?"
Li Yunlong looked at the young man viciously.
"Hey you..what are you doing!"
"Let me go! You are not my benefactor!"
The young man struggled desperately as he spoke.
"I just asked you a question, why didn't you answer? Don't you know that's rude?"
Li Yunlong asked again.
"You are not my benefactor, why should I answer your questions!"
"You little bastard, I have to teach you a lesson today about manners."
As he spoke, Li Yunlong walked towards him again, but Li Jingrong stopped him.
"Okay, what's the point of yelling at someone who's only in his early twenties? Let me tell you what's going on."
Li Jingrong said to Li Yunlong.
"What's your name? Why do you say I'm your benefactor?"
Li Jingrong asked the young man.
The young man looked at Li Jingrong and said:
"Because you avenged my parents. By the way, your name is Li Jingrong, right?"
"Yes, I am Li Jingrong."
"That's right, it's you!"
The boy's inexplicable words left Li Jingrong and Li Yunlong confused. They didn't know why the boy said that. Li Jingrong looked at the sky and found that it was getting late.
"Okay, I'll remember that. It's getting late now, so let's go first."
After Li Jingrong said goodbye, he and Li Yunlong were about to turn around and leave, but were stopped by the young man running in front of them.
"You are not allowed to leave!"
This completely angered Li Yunlong.
"Hey! You bastard, you did it on purpose, right? I'm going to teach you a lesson right now."
As he said this, Li Yunlong prepared to take action.
At this time, the young man spoke again:
"You...you can leave, but you have to take me with you!"
This left Li Jingrong and Li Yunlong confused again.
"What? We still want to take you away? Who are you? Why should we take you away?"
Li Yunlong roared angrily.
"Because I know your identities."
The two were also shocked after hearing this.
"Do you know who we are?"
Li Jingrong asked in disbelief.
"Of course I know who you are. You are the Eighth Route Army of Langshan..."
"Okay! Get in the car with me, I'll take you away now!"
The young man was interrupted by Li Jingrong just before he finished speaking.
Then the three of them drove towards Langshan.
"How do you know we are the Eighth Route Army?"
Li Yunlong asked in surprise.
"Because I'm here to join you, how could I not know your identities?"
As soon as the boy finished speaking, Li Jingrong slammed on the brakes.
The braking caused both the boy and Li Yunlong to hit their foreheads.
"Ouch! Comrade Jingrong, what's wrong with you? How did you drive? I hit my head. It hurts so much."
Li Yunlong said while holding his head.
The young man also held his head.
"Why do you want to join our Eighth Route Army?"
Li Jingrong said seriously.
"Ouch! It hurts so much."
Only then did the boy realize the question Li Jingrong had just asked him.
"Why did I join the Eighth Route Army? Of course, to fight the Japanese together! Do you think I was joking?"
The boy said seriously.
For some reason, at this moment, Li Jingrong seemed to see the shadow of his comrade in him.
That’s right, like his comrades, he joined the army with determination.
Afterwards, Li Jingrong didn't say anything else, but just drove slowly towards Langshan.
Li Yunlong saw that Li Jingrong had a very strange expression and guessed something, so he didn't say anything more.
The boy also said nothing.
Three hours later, the group returned to Wolf Mountain.
After parking the car and unloading the goods, Li Jingrong walked towards the room of Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang.
Li Jingrong knocked on the door, and when Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang heard Li Jingrong's voice, he opened the door.
"You guys are back, have you bought anything?"
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang asked hurriedly.
"Well, everything is bought."
Li Jingrong pointed to the box in his hand.
Then Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang signaled Li Jingrong to put the box next to his desk.
"Okay, then go ahead and do your work. I'll call you when there's something else."
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang opened the box and touched the papers inside.
"Commissar, there's something else I need you to do."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"Captain Li and I met a young man on our way back from buying stamps today."
"Boy? What happened to him?"
"After seeing me, the young man kept saying that I was his benefactor and wanted to be part of our Eighth Route Army at Langshan."
Li Jingrong said.
"Did you bring him back?"
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang asked.
"Of course I brought him back. Actually, I didn't want to, but he wouldn't let us go if I didn't bring him back. What's more, he knew the identities of Captain Li and me."
"What? He knows your identities? He can't be from the enemy army!"
As soon as Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang said this, he aroused Li Jingrong's suspicion.
"From what you said, it's indeed possible. He also said he wanted to join the Eighth Route Army and fight against the enemy with us."
"Okay, then you go first. After all, they are guests here. I will ask Uncle Liu to prepare a table of food tonight, and then we will ask him in detail."
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang said.
"Okay, then, Political Commissar, you go ahead and do your work. By the way, take a look at the quality of the paper. I'll be leaving first."
Then Li Jingrong left.
When Li Yunlong saw Li Jingrong coming out, he quickly walked up to him and asked about the situation.
"What's the situation? What does the political commissar say?"
"What else can we say? He's a guest after all. He said we can ask him together at dinner tonight."
Then Li Jingrong entered the house.
Li Yunlong thought for a while before going into the house.
In the evening, as night falls, the fragrant smell of food echoes around the entire village.
"Everyone come to eat!"
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang shouted loudly.
Then everyone gathered around a table.
"What about today? A guest came to our Wolf Mountain."
Then Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang pointed at the young man.
After seeing this, the young man also stood up excitedly and said:
"Hello everyone, my name is Liu Hua. I just came to your Langshan today. I want to join you and serve in the Eighth Route Army. From now on, we will be a family."
Liu Hua bowed deeply.
After he finished speaking, everyone applauded.
"Tsk~ Who would want to be your family? We didn't know you had to beg us to bring you back."
Li Yunlong said this while eating his food with a slightly unhappy look on his face.
Then Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang gestured for Liu Hua to sit down.
"Liu Hua, where are you from? Why do you say Li Jingrong is your benefactor?"
Liu Hua put down his chopsticks and said:
"Because he avenged my parents, my mother said that anyone who has helped me is my benefactor."
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang also looked at Li Jingrong.
"This kid doesn't look like an enemy soldier. When did you rescue his parents?"
Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang asked quietly in Li Jingrong's ear.
