When people are young, they often do not cherish time, but time flies, and life is only a few decades. Although Hu Hongde and Gou Xinjia are dozens of years apart, the friendship half a century ago seems even more important at this time.
It's so precious.
Listening to the conversation between Gou Xinjia and Hu Hongde, Ye Tian's mood seemed to have returned to the war-torn years, and a series of past events unknown to the world were recounted from the two of them.
"Uncle, it's so cold, why are you dressed so thinly?"
After talking for a while, Hu Hongde saw that Gou Xin's family was still wearing Taoist robes in this harsh December. He quickly took out the waistcoat from the box and said, "Uncle, this is made of fire fox skin. You always keep it."
The clothes you wear are my nephew’s honor to you!”
"Okay, I'll accept this thing. Back then, Brother Clouded Leopard said he wanted to give me a fire fox, but I didn't expect that it would be you."
Gou Xinjia nodded, took the waistcoat over, and said: "Your father's merits outweighed his faults in his life. He is a well-deserved hero. If Mr. Jiang, alas, had not said this..."
Thinking of Hu Yunbao, who was so heroic and heroic back then, Gou Xinjia also felt sad. When the country was in crisis, there were too many unknown heroes.
"Uncle, my father admires you the most. With your words, his life will be worth it!"
Hu Hongde wiped away his tears, picked up the tea cup on the stone table and took a sip. As soon as he put it in his mouth, he spat it out with a "pop" and said: "Uncle, I'm going to drink today, and I want to give you a toast, my eldest nephew!"
"
"Okay, let's have a good drink together." Gou Xinjia nodded, looked at Ye Tian and said with a smile, "Junior brother, I'm going to trouble you, can I get some good wine and food?"
"Okay, senior brother, please chat first, and the food and wine will be delivered later."
Ye Tian nodded. The two of them had not seen each other for more than fifty years. They must have a lot to say. Ye Tian apologized and moved the two boxes he brought with him to his room.
"Dad, I'm back!"
Ye Tian picked up the phone and dialed his father. He had a lot of things to do today. Buying food and drinks would inevitably trouble his father.
"You brat, you turned your house into a hotel? Do you still know how to come back?" Hearing his son's voice, Ye Dongping became very angry. A lot of things happened during this period, but Ye Tian could not be found.
"Dad, am I busy?"
Ye Tian said with a playful smile: "By the way, dad, we have a guest at home. Take out the two jars of Maotai you have hidden, and let Xiaotian go to the restaurant to buy some good food. It should be more generous."
Hearing that a guest was coming, Ye Dongping nodded on the other end of the phone and said, "Okay, I'll let Xiao Tian handle it. By the way, I have something else to tell you."
"Dad, we'll talk about it later if you have something to do. If not, you can come over during dinner tonight. I have something to do now!"
Ye Tian hung up the phone with a "click", making Ye Dongping over there blow his beard and glare, but he couldn't do anything about his son. It seemed that Ye Tian didn't like him as his father since he was a child.
Ye Tian really has something to do. Although the weather has turned cold now, the objects in these two boxes cannot be stored for a long time and must be dealt with as soon as possible.
Opening a box, Ye Tian put the tiger skin in good condition on a chair, then went outside to break off a few branches from the tree, propped up the tiger's head, and hung it in a ventilated place outside the door.
When he was in Changbai Mountain, Hu Hongde used the secret recipe of the mountain to tantalize the tiger skin. The hair of the tiger skin that he tanned was very smooth and shiny. However, because the time was too short, it still needed to be taken out and placed in a cool place to ventilate.
of.
After placing the tiger skins, Ye Tian took out the snow clam oil contained in several plastic boxes from the box. For women, the value of these snow clam oils is even greater than that of century-old ginseng, and they must be kept properly.
It is easier to store snow clam oil than ginseng. Just put it in the refrigerator. He found some plastic wrap and added a layer of packaging on the outside of the plastic box. Ye Tian stuffed it directly into the refrigerator.
The last thing to deal with was the century-old ginseng. Ye Tian's courtyard had abundant vitality and no mosquitoes, so he was not worried about the ginseng spoiling and being eaten by insects. Ye Tian put all the old ginseng in the safe.
"Master, Master, you are back!" As soon as Ye Tian packed up his things, Zhou Xiaotian's voice rang at the door of the backyard.
"Xiao Tian, my dad asked you to come here, right? Are the food and drinks ready?"
Ye Tian pushed the door open and walked out. He punched Zhou Xiaotian on the chest with a smile and said, "You haven't lost your effort during this time, have you? Do you want to compete with the old man in the middle courtyard later?"
Ye Tian doesn't know many martial arts skills, and he can teach Zhou Xiaotian even less. However, Hu Hongde is a master of the Eagle Claw Kung Fu, and it will definitely be of great benefit to ask him for some practical skills.
Zhou Xiaotian asked curiously: "Master, who is that old man? His eyes are so sharp!"
Although Hu Hongde is older, his murderous aura has only increased compared to when he was younger. Although he and Zhou Xiaotian are both masters of dark power, the aura in Hu Hongde is much stronger than that of Zhou Xiaotian.
"He is the master of Eagle Claw Skill in Changbai Mountain. Well, he is of the same generation as you. Just call him Senior Brother Hu." Ye Tian waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I will take you to get to know him!"
"Ye Tian, come on, Lao Hu, I'll give you a bowl. If you hadn't found my uncle, I would have no hope of seeing him again in this life!"
At this time, Hu Hongde and Gou Xinjia had already set out bowls and chopsticks and were sitting in the yard drinking. Seeing Ye Tian and his two men coming over, Hu Hongde quickly stood up and poured a full bowl of wine.
"Lao Hu, senior brother doesn't have many old friends anymore. If you are interested, you can stay here and spend more time with him."
Ye Tian nodded, took the wine bowl handed by Hu Hongde and drank it in one gulp, then pulled Zhou Xiaotian and said: "Old Hu, Xiaotian is my apprentice, and you are my brothers. If you have time, give him more guidance."
one time!"
"Yes, Lao Hu, I will never hide anything from Junior Brother Zhou!"
Hearing Ye Tian's words, Hu Hongde, who originally had a smile on his face, suddenly became serious. It didn't matter if he was joking usually, but when Ye Tian talked about seniority, Hu Hongde had to straighten his posture.
"Okay, Xiaotian is a good kid. Dewazi, please do your best so that the lineage of Changbai Mountain Eagle Claw Skill will not be broken in you."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Gou Xinjia said with a smile: "Today we will only talk about the past. You two sit down, and I will tell you about the killing of the Japanese in the Northeast!"
Perhaps because of political reasons, Gou Xinjia rarely mentioned his past events to Ye Tian. Today, when he met the son of his old friend, he opened up the conversation and started talking nonstop.
When the whole [fucking] people were united in resisting Japan, Qimen Jianghu was also fighting endlessly with the factions in the island country. However, these things were extremely secretive, and there was no record in writing.
But Gou Xinjia was the one who presided over the country's strange family back then, so he could easily talk about some past events, which made several people, including Hu Hongde, boil with excitement.
Only then did Ye Tian know that there were eight major generals in Japan who died at the hands of his senior brother, and there were even dozens of junior officers such as colonels.
The Manchurian royal family recognized the traitor as their father and in turn harmed the people of the country. She also participated in the Huanggutun and September 18th Incident. She was actually captured by Gou Xinjia herself.
"Uncle, is that woman dead?"
Even Hu Hongde knew about this for the first time, and his eyes widened immediately. You must know that the people in the Northeast hated that woman to the core. The Manchukuo State that enslaved the three northeastern provinces at that time had a close relationship with her.
There are many stories about Kawashima among the people in the Northeast. Some people even say that she lived in a rural village in the northeastern suburbs and did not die until the late 1970s, so Hu Hongde would ask this question.
"It's dead. It's been wailing for three days and three nights. It's just a corpse. It's just a corpse." Gou Xinjia's face also showed a hint of gloom when he mentioned this woman.
In order to capture this woman, Gou Xin's family spent a lot of time and effort, but in the end they followed the orders from above, set up a formation in the cell, and forcibly caused the woman to be filled with evil spirits and die.
"Senior brother, how many secrets do you have hidden in your belly? If you don't tell me this, it will be the biggest mystery of this century!"
After listening to the Gou Xin family's story, Ye Tian and others all looked at each other in shock. They did not expect to hear such a shocking secret from the Gou Xin family.
Facing the real historical truth, Ye Tian and others felt a little weird, as if they were walking in the long river of history, giving people a feeling of going back in time.
"History is written by the victors. I hope that future generations will not forget the deeds of our ancestors who shed their lives and blood." Thinking of what happened after the Anti-Japanese War, Gou Xinjia couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he never mentioned the events of the past again.
.
"Ye Tian, are you ready to eat now? I went to Quanjude and bought a duck. Come on, let's add another dish!" A few people were drinking and chatting when Ye Dongping walked in from the front yard and packed several lunch boxes in his hands.
Place it on the stone table.
"Dad, this is a friend from Changbai Mountain. Just call him Lao Hu!" Ye Tian pulled his father over and introduced him to Hu Hongde. Thanks to his son's favor, Ye Dongping was used to being three points higher than everyone he saw.
Already.
After saying a few polite words to Hu Hongde and toasting a bowl of wine, Ye Dongping tugged on his son's clothes to color them, and the two walked to the pavilion in the middle courtyard.
Ye Tian said with some dissatisfaction: "Dad, I still have guests to accompany me. Why is everything so mysterious? Your son can tell others about everything!"
"Your mother has come to the capital!"
Ye Dongping glanced at his son and spat out a few words, but to Ye Tian, they were no less than a bolt from the blue!
