★ See also the Corpse Chasers
Xiangxi. In the jungle at the foot of Qinglong Mountain. Suddenly, a person wearing a corpse chaser's black robe jumped out, it was Zhu Yeqing, the leader of the bandits in disguise.
I saw him wave the soul attraction banner in his left hand, and hit the gong hanging in his left hand with his right hand: Dang! The voice is harsh. Then he opened his mouth and shouted: Happy God is on the road, Yang people avoid it!
The two zombies with their bodies connected to the grass rope screamed "poof" and "poof" from the woods to the mountain road, and then walked up with a stick. It is Niu Wuhe and Sanmao.
The corpse chaser Zhu Yeqing shouted in a strange voice: The road is empty, happy God relaxes!
The two zombies walking in a daze immediately turned into ordinary steps.
Niu Wu disguised zombie said: Master Long, it's dark, let's settle in the store (stay in the store)!

Zhu Yeqing, a corpse chaser, said: The sun sets in the west, and the future is wide!
While! A gong rang out.
Niu Wu's disguised zombie blew the yellow sheet paper on his face and said: Master Long, there should be no danger on this road, right?
Corpse chaser Zhu Yeqing: The sea of bitterness is boundless, and it is dangerous at any time!
While! Another gong sounded.
Niu Wu's disguised zombie hurriedly said: Got it, got it. He didn't dare to urge the store (staying in the store) anymore.
Zhu Yeqing, the corpse chaser, suddenly whispered: The future is boundless, and you can't leave the gun!
While! Another gong sounded.

The two zombies played by Niu Wu and He Sanmao behind him said "yes" in unison. After a burst of operations in the zombie robe, he immediately loaded the short gun bullet and held it in his hand. Anyway, there is a wide zombie robe to cover it, and no one can see it.
The three of them traveled quickly on the uninhabited mountain road.
★ The bandit Zhu Yeqing, why is it called the name of a poisonous snake
Leopard Ridge. The reconnaissance platoon was constantly going up and down the ridge, climbing over mountains and streams.
Zhao Yue said: Platoon commander, why is the bandit Zhu Yeqing called 'Zhu Yeqing'?
The elder of the first squad said: Platoon commander, you can tell the soldiers the origin of Zhu Yeqing, which can also refresh and relieve fatigue.
Zhang Hu deliberately suggested: Brother Zhou, you can tell everyone first, what does the bamboo leaf green viper look like, okay?
The guide Lao Zhou hurriedly said: Okay! Zhuyeqing is a famous poisonous snake in Xiangxi region, it has a fierce temperament, easy to attack, and is very poisonous. The whole body is bright green color, not only good at camouflage in the mountains and wild bamboo bushes and grass branches and leaves, but also likes to go deep into the township dwellings, and attack people and animals when they have the opportunity. Its appearance is neither recognizable nor easy to guard against. Therefore, the mountain people in Xiangxi are a little apprehensive when they mention it.
A group of elders said: It seems that this fierce bandit, called 'Zhu Yeqing', is worthy of his name.
Zhang Hu added: Zhu Yeqing, surnamed Long, is one of the famous habitual bandits in Xiangxi. In the past seven or eight years, he has taken Qinglongzhai in the Yuanling Mountains as his old camp, raping, killing and looting everywhere, and doing all kinds of evil. The common people hate it to the core.
Zhao Yue suddenly interjected and asked: Platoon commander, what is the geographical situation of Qinglongzhai?
Zhang Hu said: According to the local guerrilla leader, the Qinglongya Mountain in Qinglong Mountain is a dangerous road, and there is only one way to enter and exit. There are dozens of Tujia, Miao, and Han families in the village. The houses are all made of mountain rocks, and bullets cannot penetrate them. Behind the stockade is a cliff of ten thousand people, which only goshawks and birds can fly.
Lao Zhou hurriedly said: Yes, yes, yes, that's right. I've been there.
The second squad leader changed his face and asked: How can the people there survive in such a precipitous environment?
Zhang Hu continued: The land available for cultivation in the village is scattered in the ravines and valleys around the village, and people do not have to go down the mountain to work. Most of the young adults in the village are out running horse gangs. Farmland is cultivated only by women and the elderly.
Lao Zhou hurriedly said: Yes, yes, yes!
The third squad leader couldn't pull down and asked: Platoon leader, what is the geographical environment of Qinglongzhai?
Zhang Hu said: Four words - the terrain is dangerous. The steep rocky path in front of the stockade has a cliff on one side and a deep stream on the other. If a sentry is placed at several bends of the path, even if there are thousands of troops and horses to attack, it will be difficult to achieve quick results.
Lao Zhou clapped his hands and said: That's right! The platoon commander is like having been to Qinglong Village in person.
Zhang Hu hurriedly said: I'm just buying and selling now - I just listened to the introduction of the Yuanling guerrilla leader!
A group of elders said with emotion: This bamboo leaf green, he will find a place to build an old camp!
Zhao Yue thought about it and said: In fact, almost all bandits in the world live on risk. In this way, they can attack when they advance, and they can defend when they retreat!
Zhang Hu continued: Since Zhu Yeqing established a secret old camp here, with the dangerous terrain here, he can go out of the mountain to burn and loot, and he can live in the village to rest. Before the liberation, there were several bandits of great power who wanted to swallow him, but he was cunning and lived in danger, and others tried their best to do nothing about him, but he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the people to eat several gangs much larger than him in the name of 'relying on gangs' -- that is, in the name of defecting to the big pole, and his cunning can be imagined.
Lao Zhou hurriedly agreed: Yes! Zhu Yeqing is such a person!
The third squad leader couldn't knock down and said: Among bandits, the typical weak eat the strong, and the strong is king!
Zhang Hu said: This Zhu Yeqing is not simple, and he dares to take the initiative to find the bad luck of the 'Liu Shi' of the regular army of the Kuomintang!
Lao Zhou hurriedly echoed: Yes, yes! Liu Shi was killed by him and robbed some weapons!
★ Mingzhu, a mute girl who went down the mountain in disguise, encountered a headless and limb corpse
Now. In the dense forest under Qinglong Mountain.
The sun is setting in the west and is slanting on the woods. A few crows flew in the sky, screaming, and flew towards this direction.
Mingzhu, a dumb woman in black, who was walking along the mountain road, looked up at the crow and immediately followed.
Crows crowed in the woods ahead.
Mingzhu stared and searched, only to see a piece of corpse thrown without concealment on the dead leaves under the big tree in front of him, like a piece of meat stake, without a head or limbs! The surrounding dead leaves were stained with blood, and the smell of blood permeated the air.
Mingzhu's delicate Danfeng eyes emerged from the gap in the trees.
The masked man Pearl in black clothes, black pants and black headscarf "swished" through the forest like a breeze, and circled around the woods. She was cautious. She's scouting the situation around her.
There were no ambushes around. Mingzhu then "swished" back to the woods, her nose covered by a triangular black scarf constantly stirring and sniffing.
Suddenly, Mingzhu cautiously walked towards the headless corpse without limbs, slowly approaching, and observed.
Under the corpse was a talisman pressed with the words: No mercy! Dragon.
The masked black-clothed pearl was startled: It turns out that this inhumane thing was actually done by Master Long?! What a bandit with a beast's face and a heart of a beast, so brutal, he will be damned! A pair of Danfeng's eyes showed a fire of resentment.
She looked at the corpse, which had no limbs and no head, and walked around, as if looking for clues left by the murderer.
Then, she kept pulling the dead leaves under her feet with her feet, and then carried them to the corpse. The leaves became thicker and thicker, and finally the whole body was buried, like a dead mound full of leaves.
The masked Pearl folded his hands, prayed silently for a while, took out his waist knife, and slashed a few branches with his swing, pressing them against the dead mound of leaves, as if he was afraid that the beast would eat the corpse.
After doing this, the masked pearl looked at the setting sun and walked out of the woods.
★ The reconnaissance platoon, which had taken the wrong path, was still on a rapid march
Evening at the foot of Qinglong Mountain. In the twilight, the last group of faint crows flew from the far sky, with black wings pulling the huge night, slowly covering the mountainous area of Xiangxi.
The reconnaissance platoon led by reconnaissance platoon commander Zhang Hu walked briskly on the mountain path.
Now, the task of arriving at Qinglong Mountain on time has failed. The reconnaissance platoon, which had already disobeyed the order, was like a group of tigers descending the mountain, speeding along the difficult mountain path.
At this time, Zhang Hu's wish was to reach Qinglong Mountain as soon as possible, so he kept throwing off his big stride and walking in front.
Gradually, there was no more laughter or discussion in the procession, only the sound of footsteps and whirring gasps.
Because they had marched more than 100 miles in a row, coupled with the suppression of the corpse gang and the blow of taking the wrong road, the soldiers felt great depression and physical fatigue.
The jungle below the mountain is reckless and foggy. It was more difficult for the reconnaissance platoon to march in a hurry.
However, after a long and rapid march, the steps of the warriors were somewhat tired.
Zhao Yue roared: Accelerate again!
Zhang Hu encouraged: Comrades, work harder. The victory of the Red Army came out of the Long March; The victory of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army came out of the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression; The victory of the People's Liberation Army also came out of the three major battles and the operation of crossing the river.
Zhao Yue said: Yes! Our four fields are from Shandong to the Northeast, from the Northeast to Pingjin, and from Pingjin to the south to cross the river, and now, to Xiangxi! Turning to thousands of miles, it all depends on our feet!
Zhang Hu said: Well said! In a word, the victory of our new China depends on us step by step! Everyone in our reconnaissance platoon is an iron foot board and a scud, can't we do Qinglong Village in one go?!
The enthusiasm of the soldiers was stirred up again, and they shouted in unison: Yes!
The second squad leader changed his face and said: Our platoon commander is educated, this truth is smooth, one set at a time, and it will grow strong when you listen to it.
Zhang Hu said: Comrades, think about how remarkable our feet are: it has gone through countless hardships and obstacles, crossed thousands of rivers and mountains, pursued the cavalry of the Japanese invaders, and once surpassed the wheels of the national army......
Zhao Yue boasted: Listen to the poem of our platoon leader, how long it is!
The first class elder Yak Niu said: The platoon commander said well! The credit of our reconnaissance platoon is also coming out of these feet.
The third squad leader couldn't pull down and hurriedly responded: The old yak is to the point!
The soles of the warriors seemed to be more energetic, and the pace of the march was no longer slow.
Zhang Hu said: Comrades, people say that all the bandits in Xiangxi can walk and run, but I dare to say that as long as they meet our reconnaissance platoon, they will meet their nemesis! You're right?
Warriors: Yes!
Twenty-eight mouths spoke in unison. The sound of response echoed in the confused twilight.
★ The Corpse Hunters carried the limbs and heads of the dead on their backs
In the jungle, it is getting darker and darker.
At this time, Zhu Yeqing and the three corpse gangs were walking quickly in the mountains.
Zhu Yeqing, the corpse chaser, carried the soul-attracting flag, and his steps were hurried, and the white cloth and white paper on the soul-attracting banner fluttered behind him.
The two zombies behind him, Niu Wu and He Sanmao, strode closely after the corpse chaser.
The corpse chaser shouted: Happy God strides away, be careful of the communist army chasing!
Zombie Niu Wu said: Sanmao, this 'five-body' should also be your turn to carry it for a while!
(This picture is selected from the Internet, if it is infringing, it must be deleted)
Zombie He Sanmao said: Fifth brother, how old have you been carrying it for a while? Carry another mile!
Zombie Niu Wu said helplessly: Okay! I'll carry another mile. Don't cheat when the time comes!
Zombie He Sanmao said: How can I be a dignified Sanmao Arhat who doesn't speak? You see, how active I am in catching the hunters of the Yao family. Slaughter his life, unload his 'five bodies', divide by two by three, and finish the work!
Seeing that He Sanmao's words were not blocked, Zhu Yeqing, the corpse chaser, suddenly knocked on the gong in his hand: Dang! shouted in his mouth: Happy God silence, be careful of the wind!
Niu Wu and He Sanmao, the two zombies, immediately fell silent.
Wow, the Corpse Catchers scurried almost without touching the ground. The purpose of Zhu Yeqing leading Niu Wu and He Sanmao to disguise themselves as corpse chasers is to get rid of the pursuit of the PLA bandit forces. (To be continued)
