Chapter 274: The Little Soldier Seeks the Forest 280
Everyone also saw a group of villagers jogging towards them with farm tools in their hands.

It seems like there has been a misunderstanding and they are being treated as bad guys.

Zhang Yaowen quickly opened the car door and got out, shouting to the front, "Fellow villagers, we are here to ask for directions. We are all from the same family."

The villagers looked at them, but did not put down their weapons. Instead, they looked at them with a vigilant look, "Ask for directions? Where are the roads in this remote area?
You are going the wrong way, turn back quickly."

Seeing that the other party had no wooden barns, the villagers became bolder. There was nothing they could do. All the grain they had collected before had been confiscated. Now, the grain was about to mature. If it was taken away by these people again, the whole village would be doomed.

Now that they heard they were not here to collect food, everyone's expressions became a little better, but they were still on guard. Who knew if these people were sent by the Japanese devils to spy on them?
"Fellow villagers, I want to ask you something. Is your village called Aoshang Village? Is there a person named Xu Xiangping?"

"Xu Xiangping from Aoshang Village? You've taken the wrong road," an old man with a hunched back came out. He looked at the people in front of him. They were all from his country, well-dressed. They might be the young men and women from the city. "That's the home of Xu, the landlord from the next village. You've taken the wrong road at the fork in the road ahead. Take another road and walk another dozen miles and you should be there."

If they come to find Landlord Xu, then there will be no problem. The entire land of Aoshang Village belongs to Landlord Xu's family. I heard that he also has a lot of business in the city. I guess these people are curious about life in the countryside and come over to visit.

Moreover, Landlord Xu has a good reputation here. When several nearby villages suffered difficulties before, it was Landlord Xu who opened his granaries and released grain to help them overcome the difficulties.

As for Xu Xiangping mentioned by the kid just now, he had some impression of him. He seemed to be the youngest son of Landlord Xu. He was now working for foreigners in the city. That was why Landlord Xu had been safe and sound all these years.

After getting the accurate information, Liang Guoqiang and his friends expressed their gratitude and turned the car around.

They had seen that fork in the road before. They saw a village from afar and chose this place.

Back on the right track, the road here is much easier to walk on than the previous country road. It must be that Landlord Xu specially asked someone to widen and reinforce it.

After walking for a few miles, we saw more land on this side and the whole view became much wider. If these were really the land of Landlord Xu as the old man said before, then he really was quite wealthy.

The car had not gone far when it was stopped by two men holding wooden guns. "Where are you from? What are you doing here?"

The two men shouted at the car from a distance, with the guns even loaded.

Zhang Yaowen and the others quickly told their purpose. When they heard that they were looking for their young master, their attitudes immediately changed. "So you are looking for our young master. Then wait for us to go back and report to the master."

One of them ran quickly towards the village. After a while, a middle-aged man in rich clothes came out with a few thugs. It seemed that this was Xu Xiangping's father, Landlord Xu.

"We are looking for Xiang Ping," Landlord Xu looked at these people. He had never seen them before, but his son had a wide social circle, so it was normal that he didn't recognize all of them. "Xiang Ping is in the city now, and he hasn't been here for some time."

"Uncle Xu, hello," Liang Guoqiang took a step forward, "I don't know if Xiang Ping has told you about this. I'm Liang Fugui, his good friend from junior high school."

Yun Tutu and the others all looked at Liang Guoqiang. It turned out that this was his real name. In comparison, Liang Guoqiang seemed to sound much better.

"Liang Fugui?" Landlord Xu thought for a moment and immediately remembered this person. "Were you and my son Xiangping deskmates in junior high school? Did you even sleep in the same dormitory?"

Liang Guoqiang nodded quickly, "Yes, Uncle Xu, I went abroad later and we lost contact. It just so happens that I'm going this way during this period, so I wanted to come and visit." Xu Fugui's face became even more enthusiastic when he heard it, and he began to invite them to the village, "Xiang Ping is not at home, so your uncle can greet you when you get here. Let's not stand here, let's go home and talk."

Liang Guoqiang quickly refused when he heard this, "Xiang Ping is not at home, so we won't bother him. Uncle can give me his address, and I will go find him myself when I get to the city."

Landlord Xu looked at the car behind them and understood that these must be some rich young men and women who were out for some fun. They would definitely have nothing to talk about with old men like them, so he didn't force them.

"Okay, I'll have someone go back and copy the address for you," Landlord Xu said, and then he told the thug beside him, "Go back and tell your wife to copy a copy of the young master's address."

While waiting, Zhang Yaowen took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to Landlord Xu. "We have a lot of land here. Is there a road from here?"

"Where are you going?" Landlord Xu took the cigarette and put it under his nose. He was not a real fool. A classmate who had not been in contact for many years suddenly came to his door. It must be more than a simple visit.

However, based on the friendship between Liang Fugui and his son over the years, he was still willing to give him a favor.

"We want to go for a walk on the beach," Zhang Yaowen saw wisdom in the other's eyes. It was not easy to hide anything from such an old man, so he simply said it directly, "We want to find a deserted place and enjoy a moment of tranquility."

Landlord Xu looked at him for a moment, wanting to find a place where no one was around, and he really asked the right person.

"There is a small road behind our village that leads to Hai Village. That place is quite remote and the road may be difficult to travel, but if you go from the city, there will be a main road."

"It's close to the East China Sea, and it's a secluded place."

Landlord Xu also gave the detailed route, "If you can't get there, just turn back and I'll have someone prepare wine and food to entertain you."

Zhang Yaowen didn't expect such an unexpected surprise. He knew that Hai Village was still very remote, which was quite convenient for them to do things.

They each smoked a cigarette, and the address was delivered to them. Liang Guoqiang carefully put the paper in his pocket and then said goodbye to Landlord Xu.

Watching the car heading towards that road as he said, Landlord Xu sighed, not knowing whether the information he provided was good or bad.

However, these people had clear vision and chose to take the route through the countryside in order to avoid those sentry posts, so their origins were very obvious.

After all, they are our own people, so we just hope everything goes well for them.

"You guys stay here and remember, no one will enter the village today." Landlord Xu gave these instructions before turning around, and the two strong men in his hands quickly agreed.

They didn't understand anything, but they knew they had to listen to their master.
