"Before I come back, you must solve the problem yourself and explain everything you have to say--"

Zhu Xiaozhou began to pack his things and prepare to embark on this "time and space travel" alone.

But she wasn't worried about the two guys who were left behind -

"Also, don't be crazy again! Whoever smashes my shop again, I will kick him out, do you hear me?"

I felt relieved when I saw that none of them had any objections.

Take advantage of the night.

Opening the door, they got into the sound of gunfire that only they could hear, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Time is imprisoned in memory, but it has gained eternity.

Zhu Xiaozhou returned to the memory of time sealed by Liuli's safety button. This time, she came alone as Qiyun's master.

But before she could gain a firm foothold, she was bombarded by a series of firepower——

Shocked.

It was impossible to distinguish between east, west, north and south, and there were ruins all around. The burned old houses had dilapidated yards, and the destroyed villages were filled with thick smoke, filled with the acrid smell of gunpowder smoke.

Zhu Xiaozhou followed the villagers to escape, took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose to relieve the pain after inhaling the thick smoke——

A feeling of suffocation due to coughing until you can't breathe.

Looking for some water became a luxury, and I didn't dare to stop at all.

Perhaps those who were desperately escaping at this moment never thought that the Japanese army would come so quickly!

Caught them off guard!

Seven or eight small soldiers of the Eighth Route Army took advantage of the terrain to engage in guerrilla warfare with the Japanese brigade, and opened a battle line about two to three hundred meters west of the village.

From time to time, a burst of gunfire would be heard.

They failed to persuade the villagers to abandon the village and relocate. The villagers' stubbornness in guarding their homes delayed the opportunity to evacuate. Now that the enemy was attacking, they realized the danger.

It was those little soldiers who tried their best to put distance between the firepower points and the common people, giving everyone a chance to evacuate.

"Go quickly! Go quickly!"

A familiar voice came.

Zhu Xiaozhou raised his head, and as expected——

I saw Xiaoxia who originally existed in this time.

She was wearing a military uniform and was assisting people to evacuate. She was anxiously watching the battle situation in the west and asking if anyone was left behind.

Zhu Xiaozhou had never experienced the hardships of war. She was choked to tears. She squinted her eyes and followed the blurry figure of the fellow villager everywhere to avoid attacks.

From time to time, artillery shells flew by, blowing up the houses along the way and causing dust to fly!

Xiaoxia rushed over and protected the two young children. When the gunfire came, she pulled them and asked them to move forward quickly with the others.

Zhu Xiaozhou was coughing so much that he wanted to spit out his lungs. Even if he tried to adjust his breathing and try not to inhale the thick smoke, the dust that filled the air made it suffocating.

The splashed sand and gravel hit my face and body, causing pain!

There was no way to stop and observe where the barrel of the gun was mounted.

I just felt like artillery fire was coming from all directions and there was no way to escape.

If Xiaoxia hadn't patiently directed the evacuation, a group of people would be like headless flies, running around with their heads in their hands.

Zhu Xiaozhou's vision went dark, and at the moment when she almost fell down——

Xiaoxia rushed up and supported her.

"Don't give up!" Xiaoxia yelled at the top of her lungs, "Everyone, don't give up! You must hold on! We will come back one day!"

Looking at the burned home, my eyes were full of tears and my voice was hoarse.

She used her thin shoulders to support most of Zhu Xiaozhou's body and walked forward with difficulty, leading everyone to evacuate from the village to the back mountain for shelter.

Zhu Xiaozhou only felt a sharp pain in his back shoulder, and then lost consciousness.

When she woke up, she was already lying in a dark cave, and she couldn't even remember how she got here.

Next to him, there were villagers and fellow villagers huddled together on the side of the cave.

Because they lost their home, everyone was in a very depressed mood.

From time to time, soft sobbing can be heard from the crowd.

How to survive in the future has become the most critical issue at the moment.

The home where I grew up was baptized by artillery fire and was completely destroyed. All my food, clothing, shelter and necessities were gone. Everything had to start over. If it was possible to start over again.

A young woman had just lost her husband, holding her two young children in her arms, sitting in a corner in a daze.

There were no tears in her eyes, only despair for tomorrow.

The young soldiers who had just retreated from the battlefield were also resting, and they were all more or less injured.

The cave was filled with an unspeakable smell, the earthy smell mixed with the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke.

Zhu Xiaozhou saw Zhang Daniu at the entrance of the cave.

I opened my mouth, but no sound came out

"Don't be sad, everyone. As long as we are all here, our homes will be rebuilt sooner or later!"

Xiaoxia stood up and encouraged everyone, "No matter how difficult it is right now, we must live well! Take back our land, our home!"

But everyone had just experienced a close call and saw their homes destroyed, and they lost all confidence.

How can I still listen to her words?

Xiaoxia couldn't hide her disappointment and turned her head to look at Zhang Daniu.

Zhang Daniu was dirty all over his body.

The Eighth Route Army uniform he was wearing was also in disrepair.

There was a piece of white cloth wrapped around the arm instead of a bandage. It was stained with bright red blood. It looked like the injury was serious.

Even though he was in such a mess, those bright eyes were still full of hope.

Xiaoxia was encouraged and cheered up again. "Don't worry, everyone, we will definitely win! In the future, our descendants can still run wild on this land! At that time, we must tell them everything about the present.

!Tell them to be strong and brave!."

At the most desperate time, Xiaoxia's words gave many people the faith to persevere.

Will definitely win——

Xiaoxia noticed that Zhu Xiaozhou moved while lying on the ground, and immediately ran over and held her down.

He urged anxiously, "Don't move, you are injured - you were hit by the fragments of a stray bullet, and there is no way to take them out now. Just bear with it a little longer, and I will help you take out the fragments when it is safe. It won't happen."

Dangerous!"

She spoke sincerely and looked full of passion.

It turned out that she was hit by fragments of a stray bullet. No wonder she fainted as soon as her vision went dark.

Now I can't move, and I'm struggling to survive.

The Japanese raids were in vain, and they probably guessed that these old, weak, sick and disabled people could not run far, so they started searching nearby.

The terrain of the back mountain is steep, the entrance of the cave is secret, and the universe is hidden inside.

Looking from the foot of the mountain, it is completely unimaginable that so many people can be hidden halfway up the mountain, which is almost straight up and down.

Everyone was trapped in the cave for three days.

Zhang Daniu and Xiao Xia had already taken out their last rations and distributed them to the fellow villagers. They suffered for three days by themselves. They were so hungry that they grabbed a handful of weeds from the cave and stuffed them into their mouths, mixing them with soil.

Chew it and swallow it.

The water droplets seeping out of the cave became everyone's only source of water.

Even so, everyone was unbearably hungry. The rations barely lasted for a day and a half, and twenty or thirty people were waiting for the turbid water drops in the cave——

One drop or two will not solve the problem at all.

In the closed space, no one dared to make a sound.

Such an environment can almost drive people crazy.

There were several children who were so hungry that they cried.

There is nothing the adults can do but keep coaxing the children and calming their emotions.

". Just bear with it a little longer, bear with it a little longer, and then go out and let me spread some steamed buns for you to eat."

What do three- and four-year-old children know?

When I'm hungry, I feel panicked and cry non-stop.

Soon it aroused dissatisfaction from other people, fearing that the child's cry would attract the Japanese.

Zhu Xiaozhou woke up again, heard their movements, and looked at Xiaoxia, who had been staying by her side to observe her injuries.

She reached out and fumbled with her satchel, took out the last few lollipops left, and stuffed them into Xiaoxia's hand with one breath.
