After Gu Long Fei threw out the hand grenade, he took advantage of the empty space to grab the long gun thrown by Li Shu, and in three or five seconds, he loaded the bullet into the chamber, pointed the muzzle outward, ready to fire at the enemy.

  After the grenade exploded, the enemy immediately sent a burst of mournful cries and curses. Someone was shouting that their arm had been blown off, someone was exclaiming that Li Er and Huang San were dead, and someone was cursing these evil commoners for having grenades... For a moment, the enemy was stunned by the sudden grenade, even forgetting to fire their guns! At this time, only a low, muffled voice was heard, saying: "Useless things, retreat!" A whistle sounded, and from outside came the sound of chaotic footsteps. In an instant, they had retreated cleanly, without a sound.

  Gǔ Lóng Fēi lay on the ground for a while, listening to the outside silence, and looked at Liú Fú with suspicion, asking: "They left? Just like that?" At first, the enemy's firepower was fierce, pressing them down so they couldn't lift their heads. When they were at a loss, Lǐ Shū threw a hand grenade. In the chaos, he tossed it out, and just like that, the enemy fled? This made Gǔ Lóng Fēi somewhat skeptical of the reality before his eyes - what kind of people were these, how could they be so incompetent, and be scared away by a single hand grenade?

  Liu Fu shook his head and didn't understand what they were singing about just now!

  At this time, Li Shu also figured out the situation outside and flipped over from the doorstep, asking in surprise: "Did they run away? What kind of people are these?" Xiao Ru had been brewing ginger sugar water for Li Shu in the back, but the sudden sound of gunfire scared her too. She picked up a short gun from the kitchen and was about to rush out, but the other side's bullets were too dense, pinning her to the ground, unable to move. When she heard the gunfire disappear, she rushed out, loudly asking: "What kind of people? What kind of people? Where are they?" Looking at her momentum, it was completely different from the weak and gentle appearance seen before. Indeed, having a gun in hand added a few points of bravery!

  Kulon saw Li Shu and Xiao Ru, one was ill and the other was relatively small and weak. In front of strong enemies, they both performed well. Suddenly, he thought of how they killed Kitano in the coffee shop. Just now, he didn't have time to ask them what they did, why they wanted to kill the Japanese traitor, and if there were others with them. Where had they gone at this moment?

  Xiao Ru saw Xiao Bao lying motionless on the ground with a dagger deeply inserted into his abdomen, and her heart suddenly ached as she burst into tears: "Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao, what's wrong with you? Don't die, okay? From now on, I won't bully you anymore, and even if you don't call me sister, I won't scold you!" Her heart was filled with remorse as she thought about how she had often teased him and forced him to call her "sister", and now she would never hear his silly laughter again!

  The ancient dragon flew over and sat up, suddenly laughing: "Little Treasure is fine!" He had just seen Little Treasure lying on the ground, reached out to touch his neck artery, and found that his pulse was beating strongly, not at all like someone who had lost blood and was injured. At the time, he didn't understand what was going on, but now seeing Little Treasure's belly bulging up, he reached out and grasped the dagger, using force to pull it out, instantly pulling the dagger out.

  Xiao Ru exclaimed: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?" As soon as the words fell, Gu Longfei's dagger in his hand emitted a cold white light under the lamp, without any bloodstains. Suddenly, he understood and reached into Xiao Bao's belly, pulling out two white buns. He was both shocked and delighted, and punched Xiao Bao's body several times: "You little scamp, you scared me to death just now!"

  Xiao Bao was punched a few times by Xiao Ru while he was unconscious and slowly woke up, looking around blankly at everyone, not knowing what they were staring at him for. He asked dazedly: "What's going on? Why are you all staring at me?"

  Looking at Xiaobao's expression, it can be roughly guessed what happened earlier: The enemy launched a surprise attack and saw Xiaobao outside the courtyard. At that time, it was not convenient to open fire, so someone threw a flying knife at him. The flying knife was straight and true, and it just stuck into Xiaobao's belly where he had hidden his steamed bun. And Xiaobao only saw the dagger flying towards him, and was stabbed in the belly with a loud thud, and was frightened to death!

  Everyone saw that Xiaobao was fine, and they all let out a sigh of relief. After helping him into the house, they were silent for a while. Then Uncle Li said: "You guys say, who were those people just now? Could they be Japanese, and they found out our address and came to raid us with a large group?" As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head again and said: "No, that's not right. If they were Japanese, they wouldn't have been scared away by just one hand grenade."

  "It can't be the Japanese! I just heard their conversation, it's authentic Wuhan dialect, no way a Japanese person could speak like that!" He paused for a moment, then asked, "What are you people doing? Why did you think of killing traitors and Japanese?"

  Mr. Li's suspicions about Gu Longfei had long been dispelled, and now that he was asking about his own affairs, he did not hide anything and told the whole story from beginning to end. It turned out that Mr. Li used to be a tea merchant, with a wife and children, and they lived happily together. In the year when Xiaoru was one year old, they took her in and treated her as their own daughter, and it was a harmonious family. Xiaobao was his biological son! After Japan invaded, not only did they take over his business, but also killed his wife and other family members, leaving only him and two sons behind. The other son was Li Zhen Shan, who had been killed recently, which was why they killed the traitors whenever they saw them, and Gu Longfei almost died at their hands as well.

  After the Japanese came, they killed Li Shu's parents, wife, and partners. In a fit of rage, he invited many fellow travelers who had also lost their families to form a small team. Whenever they saw a lone Japanese or traitor, they would kill them. When a large group of enemies arrived, they would disperse, making the enemy both hate and fear them! Normally, everyone lived scattered, which didn't easily arouse suspicion from others. As long as there was a chance to kill the enemy, they would gather together, able to assemble and disperse at will, very convenient!

  Among them, his son Li Zhen Shan, killed the Japanese with hatred and ferocity, and had great prestige among the local people in Hankou. This also made Japan extremely worried, so they found a way to get rid of Li Zhen Shan and shot him dead on the street. Moreover, Li Zhen Shan and Xiao Ru, who had been childhood sweethearts since they were young, had planned to get married after Japan left with the consent of Uncle Li, but he died suddenly, leaving Uncle Li and Xiao Ru in extreme sorrow.

  Mr. Li finished speaking, his voice choked with sobs, and tears streamed down his face. He had been seriously ill, but when the enemy attacked earlier, he suddenly regained his spirit. Now that the enemy had retreated, he told a heart-wrenching story, and his energy was exhausted. He could no longer stand and fell onto the recliner. Xiaoru had been raised by the Li family since childhood and had a deep affection for Lǐ Zhènshān. But when Lǐ Zhènshān was suddenly killed by the Japanese, her emotional support collapsed. She had been suppressing her grief all these days, but now it was stirred up again. She couldn't hold back anymore and burst into loud wails!

  Gu Longfei and Liu Fu stepped forward to comfort them, and after their emotions had stabilized a bit, Gu Longfei said: "Uncle Li, Little Rong, although we don't know who attacked us just now or what their goal was, it's clear that this place has been noticed by someone and is no longer safe. We can't stay here anymore and need to find another place to live!"

  Li Shu listened to this and forcibly suppressed the pain in his heart, wiping his face and saying: "You didn't say it, I really didn't think of this, I don't know how these bastards found us! Let's do this, we still have other like-minded people, let's move to their place!"

  The ancient dragon shook its head and said, "Your place of residence is also considered secret, since they can find you here, other places may not be safe either. Who knows if they have already grasped all your situations! We cannot move to live with them, on the contrary, we should inform them to move out early, otherwise it will be equally dangerous!"

  Li Shu nodded: "Right, thanks for reminding me. Later, I'll let Xiao Ru separately notify them to leave quickly!" He was puzzled in his heart, although he and his men had killed countless enemies, they were always careful and cautious in their actions, how could the information have been leaked out?

  Liu Fu suddenly interjected, "Why don't you all move to my house? My house is located on the outskirts of the city, in a remote area, it's not easy for people to find! Young Master has been to my house, what do you think?" He forgot that Young Master had lost some of his memories and at this time didn't even know where he lived.

  The ancient dragon was stunned for a moment, and although he didn't know where Liu Fu lived, he heard that his home was outside the city, so he nodded in agreement: "This is also good, the enemy's eyes are too many, at most they can only be inside the city, after leaving the city, they will be out of reach!"

  Everyone discussed it for a while and thought Liu Fu's proposal was feasible. After the discussion, they decided to wait until dawn and then have Xiao Ru separately inform others to evacuate quickly and return to join everyone in going to Liu Fu's home. At this time, the sky had already brightened, and Xiao Ru turned around and entered the back room, bringing out a bowl of hot ginger sugar water for Li Shu to drink. After that, she went into the house, packed two bundles, put them on the table, and said: "You all wait for a while, I'll go inform them, let them think of a way to avoid it for now, if they're late and the enemy breaks in, it will be troublesome!"

  "Be careful, don't bump into the devils! Tell them to hurry up and move to a different place, this period of time is very sensitive, it's best not to take action, or you might not be able to escape!"

  Xiao Ru responded with a sound, and was about to go out. Gu Longfei saw that the sky was slightly bright and worried that she would be unsafe going out alone, so he suggested going out together. Xiao Ru shook her head and smiled: "It's okay, I won't go far, I'll let Wang Hen on the street notify others!" And then she went out.

  As expected, Xiaoru returned soon! She saw that everyone was ready and helped Liu Fu support Li Shu to walk out the door. As soon as they stepped out of the door, Gu Longfeng suddenly thought of something and turned around to say to everyone: "No, no, this matter is suspicious, I can't go with you!"

  Xiao Ru asked in confusion: "Brother-in-law, what's wrong? What's going on?" In the past, she followed Li Shu and Li Zhen Shan's team to kill enemies, walking through streets and alleys, running around everywhere. Although she had never killed anyone with her own hands, with Li Shu and Li Zhen Shan as her backing, she was never afraid! After Li Zhen Shan died, Li Shu suffered a great blow, and many times he was absent-minded. She suddenly lost her reliance. Later, brother-in-law appeared, not only did he clear his own name, but also defeated the strong enemy just now. With sister's affectionate bond, she quickly regarded him as her new backing. At this moment, seeing him suddenly oppose the plan he proposed himself, she was not only puzzled!

  Liu Fu also asked in surprise: "Young master, why didn't you go with us? Where are you going?"
