Siheyuan: From Being Called Shazhu

He Yuzhu dared to swear that this was the first time in his two lifetimes that he ran so fast. He could even say that he was using all his strength.

It's a pity that He Yuzhu will be 16 years old in a few months.

However, He Yuzhu now still has small arms and legs and looks like a child who hasn't even reached the voice change period.

He Yuzhu didn't even have to run a few steps before his arms were lifted up by two pairs of big hands, one on the left and one on the right.

Although He Yuzhu was a little surprised that he was caught so quickly.

However, He Yuzhu, who had already prepared himself to be caught up, swung his calf backwards like a whip with his right leg when the two old men held him up, hoping that his right foot would hit the old men's fatal blow.

He Yuzhu has already thought it through.

As long as the old guy here is kicked, his right hand will be freed, and He Yuzhu will definitely be able to break free by either elbowing him or hitting him in the eye and throat.

After breaking free, as long as he could enter Enyuan, He Yuzhu would be safe.

Unfortunately, He Yuzhu had a good idea, but the first part failed.

His right foot was blocked by the old man here.

Even the tendon at the back of his right heel happened to collide with the old man's knee, and his entire right foot and calf were numb.

"You know what, this kid is pretty slippery."

As the old man spoke, he and the old man next to him worked together to lift He Yuzhu a little higher.

He Yuzhu has given up now.

There was only one thought in his mind.

Should he wait for an opportunity to continue running, or become a martyr and shout "Sun Xianghong is a traitor" now?

Just when He Yuzhu was still daydreaming, he didn't expect Master Sun to come over staggeringly with his gun in his hand.

"Okay, that's enough. This is just a lesson for you. Let's see if you can still be a hero alone next time."

As he spoke, Master Sun patted He Yuzhu on the head.

? ? ? ? ? ?

After being slapped by Master Sun, He Yuzhu's head was full of question marks.

However, Master Sun ignored He Yuzhu and started reminiscing about the past with the two old men.

"Old Li, Old Qian, it's been 20 years since we last met. I still remember the first lesson when we trained the little cubs."

"Of course I remember! Back when we were in the military camp, we played a lot of tricks on the new guys. Later, when the guys grew up, they even regarded this as a tradition. They would do the same thing to new guys. How could I forget it?"

The shirtless old man holding He Yuzhu on the left was laughing.

But the little old man who was holding He Yuzhu on the right spoke with a crying tone.

"Yes, it's been 17 years. We haven't seen each other since we were separated at the Great Wall."

"Ah~~~ It's been 17 years, I didn't expect you two have grown old..."

As he spoke, Master Sun shook his head in self-mockery.

"Yeah, I'm an old man now, so I won't talk about you two anymore."

that's it.

The three of them talked one after another for a long time.

He didn't care at all that He Yuzhu was still being held in the middle, enduring the spit of three people.

For a moment, He Yuzhu didn't know whether to say that these two old men, who were at least 60 years old, had good physical strength as they were able to hold him for such a long time without letting go.

Or should we say that these three old men, who are almost 200 years old in total, ignored him.

However, there is good news.

That means He Yuzhu is safe.

What happened just now was actually these three old guys using him as a reminder of the past.

This. . . .

He Yuzhu said something that was not so nice, and it involved some slang about his mother, so I don’t know whether I should say it or not.

As the three old men talked deeper and deeper, He Yuzhu also understood.

These three old guys are not beards at all. Instead, they are still the original "regular army".

In 33, the three of them entered the pass together to support the Great Wall and Rehe.

But when they reached the Great Wall, the team was broken up.

Master Sun joined our army directly and started fighting the Japanese and the bandits along the way.

The two old men were injured at the time, so they hid in the countryside.

Maybe they thought that Master Sun had died in the battle, and they were both in their forties and tired of it, so they never came out.

This time, I have settled down and am old, so I want to return to my hometown, so I go to the city to work and save money for the train ticket.

Although He Yuzhu still had some questions, such as why these two old men called Master Sun "Shao Pengtou".

Also, why are these three people speaking bandit jargon so fluently?

But at least, He Yuzhu can now breathe a sigh of relief.

Because through the three people's reminiscing and the jokes just said, the two are compared.

He Yuzhu was no longer in danger of losing his life.

"Oh, there is someone here, how could I forget about it?"

Maybe he was reminded by He Yuzhu's long breath.

Or maybe these two old guys are just bored now.

Anyway, He Yuzhu was put down.

"Don't mind it, nephew. We are used to quarreling with your master, so we didn't pay attention for a while."

What can He Yuzhu say when faced with the two old men singing the same tune?

Even if I could say something, I can't.

Mainly, it was Master Sun who gave the summary over there.

"Okay, I'll tell you about my business later."

As he spoke, Master Sun touched He Yuzhu's head, returned the gun to He Yuzhu, and looked at the two old men.

"My dear brothers, I'm sorry, but it's my duty. Please come with me."

"Hey, hey, it should be."

"Look at what you said, what's the big deal."

The two old men agreed with a chuckle, as if they didn't care at all.

After following Master Sun to send the two old men to the Public Security Bureau, which has now been officially renamed, He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

If Master Sun took the two people back to his unit for investigation, there might be other twists and turns.

However, if it is sent to the Public Security Bureau, it will be equivalent to the "off-site investigation" in later generations.

Basically there will be no twists and turns.

After completing the handover with the comrades from the Public Security Bureau, Master Sun walked out of the police station, but he didn't rush back to get his bicycle.

Instead, he found a cool and deserted spot nearby and sat down.

He took out his pipe and took two puffs.

"Okay, if you have any questions, just ask."

"I...you..."

Although He Yuzhu is now full of questions.

But when the words came to my lips, I didn't know where to start.

"Hey~~, let me tell you from the beginning."

Seeing He Yuzhu's helpless look, Master Sun sighed.

After wrapping two more puffs of the pipe, he began.

"Do you know Sun Jiugong?"

"Sun Jiugong?"

I was ready to listen to Master Sun's story, but who knew that Master Sun would come up and ask a question first.

For a moment, He Yuzhu didn't react.

But then, I remembered.

"Is he the sworn brother of Baima Zhang, the loyal minister?"

"Well, yes, that's him."

Master Sun nodded.

"He is the uncle of my family."

Master Sun didn't wait for He Yuzhu to say anything and continued talking.

"After my father had me, he went to live with this brother from the same family. At that time, my uncle was already the assistant commander of the middle battalion, which is now the deputy battalion commander. After my father passed away, he began to serve as my uncle's deputy. He served as such for 14 years."

Having said this, Master Sun sighed, wrapped up his pipe, and then continued.

"In 14, my father died in battle to protect my grandfather. I was only 14 years old at that time, and my grandfather brought my family to Fengtian. It was from that time that I met Lao Li and Lao Qian, the two old men just mentioned."

Master Sun might have been thinking about his childhood days in the past, and there was a smile on his face when he spoke.

But then, Master Sun's mouth corners also closed.

"I started managing logistics for my uncle when I was 14 years old. I started as a soldier, and then my uncle sent me to the Northeast Military Academy to learn about general affairs. After that, I became an adjutant. Until 22, when my uncle wanted to build an arsenal, I was sent to the Military Academy to learn about the logistics department and became the chief logistics officer. Lao Li and Lao Qian followed me all the time. Even..."

Maybe Master Sun felt that he was too excited, so he stopped to take a breath, and then continued to speak calmly.

"Even in 24, my grandfather passed away. In 28, Xiao Liuzi took over and I was sent to the front-line troops. In 30, when I entered the customs, these two people followed me all the time. Even in 31, when I wanted to take revenge and join the Anti-Japanese Conference, they followed me without complaint. In 33, I decided to lead the team into the customs to support Rehe and the Great Wall, and they came with me."

At this point, Master Sun smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"But I have personally sent them both in for investigation. Sigh~~~~"

Seeing that Master Sun's mood was getting worse the more he spoke, He Yuzhu interrupted him.

"By the way, Master..."

Before He Yuzhu could finish his words, Master Sun was immediately surprised when the word "Master" came out of his mouth.

"I can even attack someone who has been with me through thick and thin for 20 years, and you still call me Master?"

This question made He Yuzhu stunned.

He knew that the "Master" that Master Sun was referring to now was a real Master.

Moreover, this was the first time that Master Sun admitted it in front of He Yuzhu.

Does this count as a successful “apprenticeship”?

"What's wrong? Isn't this your job? If the two of you are really fine, then it's fine. If there is really something wrong, it's not your fault, right?"

To be honest, did He Yuzhu feel resentful after being "tricked" by Master Sun and those two old guys just now?

To say no would definitely be a lie.

However, He Yuzhu knew that Master Sun's original intention was to make He Yuzhu be more careful and not be reckless in the future.

Moreover, even if Master Sun didn’t say it, He Yuzhu knew it.

Why was Master Sun demoted from the regiment commander of our army, and even on the verge of being promoted, to the company commander? He even got a nickname - Sun Yanwang?

That’s because as long as Master Sun leads the team, there will definitely be no prisoners under his command.

Yeah, yes, no matter who you hit.

As for why it is so cruel.

Seeing that I am 50 years old this year, but I only have a family photo as a memory, and I live a very lonely life, I understand.

If He Yuzhu, who always followed him around and called him Master, didn't feel a sense of empathy after almost two years of getting along, Master Sun wouldn't believe it.

Okay, even if there is no sense of immersion.

But isn’t it natural for a master to take care of his apprentice?

Don’t forget that He Yuzhu has a master and has been working in the kitchen for many years.

For true disciples, those little things are just to scare them?

It takes three years of apprenticeship, two years of working, and five years of hard work to earn money to support a family.

Not to mention it's just a scare, the words "Life and death have nothing to do with the Master" on the door sticker are not written in vain.

Moreover, Master Sun was able to send those two people directly in for investigation.

Doesn’t that mean that Master Sun is fine?

Since Master Sun is fine, and he is a veteran who has joined our army since 33.

How could He Yuzhu let go of such a big and thick leg?
