Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

At this critical moment, Xu Fan shouted, "Stop! Don't move!"

Jiang Wenming's shout startled the two men and they turned around suddenly.

When their eyes fell on the gun tightly held in Xu Fan's hand, their faces suddenly turned pale and their whole bodies trembled, as if their souls were about to fly out of their bodies.

"Comrade...Comrade, please don't shoot! We just heard the miserable screams from your wife when she was giving birth, and we were really worried, so we came here to check the situation. We have absolutely no ill will towards you!" One of the men explained very quickly, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and he kept bowing to Xu Fan and begging for mercy while speaking.

Jiang Wenming and Xu Fan looked at each other with confusion in their eyes, but they did not relax their vigilance at all.

At this moment, the courtyard door suddenly creaked open, and Jiang Jiyun came out with a smile on his face. He asked, "Uncle, why did you come back just now? Did you find a midwife?"

Faced with this question, Xu Fan was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

However, just as he was hesitating, Jiang Wenming's eyes rolled around, and he came up with a plan. He quickly said, "Oh, niece, don't worry. Your brother Ma and the others have gone to find a midwife. We are worried that there might be some unexpected situation at home, so we came back to take a look."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp scream suddenly rang out from inside the house - "Ah..."

Everyone was startled and looked inside the house.

It turned out that Dong Duoyu took this opportunity to take the thing stuffed in Cheng Man's mouth away, and then swung his fist at her.

Cheng Man couldn't help but scream out in pain, but Dong Duoyu was quick to block her mouth with a cloth the moment she screamed.

"Oh my, that's the sound. It's so miserable. I hope it's a difficult labor! Come back quickly. No one else is coming out to meddle in other people's business. You are just being too kind. Don't come back and be contaminated by bad luck." An old lady appeared not far from the two men and shouted loudly.

After hearing the old lady's shouting, the two men bowed to Jiang Wenming and the others, then turned around and ran away.

Jiang Wenming and Xu Fan walked hurriedly towards the yard.

However, just as they were about to step into the courtyard, Jiang Jiyun suddenly stretched out his hand and blocked their way.

Seeing this, Xu Fan couldn't help but feel a little confused. Just when he was about to ask Jiang Jiyun the reason, his eyes inadvertently fell on the two small pills lying quietly in her open palm.

Before Xu Fan could react, Jiang Wenming, who was standing beside him, quickly took a pill from Jiang Jiyun's hand without saying a word, put it into his mouth and swallowed it without hesitation.

Xu Fan was slightly startled, but seeing Jiang Wenming so decisive, he no longer hesitated. He reached out and took the other pill and put it into his mouth.

After the two of them took the pills, Jiang Jiyun stepped aside and signaled that they could enter the yard.

When Jiang Wenming and Xu Fan stepped into the yard, they immediately noticed a faint fragrance surrounding them.

It turned out that special incense was lit in every corner of the yard, and wisps of green smoke were rising.

Jiang Jiyun looked solemn, and lowered his voice to the two frowning men and said, "Hurry up and get in the house!"

As soon as he entered the house, Xu Fan's eyes widened instantly and he looked at the scene in astonishment.

There were two strange men tied up on the ground, and on the bed, there was a woman who was tied up. Her legs were bleeding, and her trouser legs below the knees were cut open.

At this time, Dong Duoyu, who was standing aside, ran to Xu Fan as if he had seen a savior, and kept talking like a string of cannonballs: "Brother Xu, this is what happened. This woman pretended to be seriously injured to gain our sympathy and wanted us to save her. As a result, Xiaoyun and I saw through her trick at a glance, and we immediately arrested her and interrogated her strictly. After some questioning, we found that they were not good people..."

Dong Duoyu described the situation vividly, but Xu Fan and Jiang Wenming were skeptical.

Just as he was about to learn more about the situation, Cheng Man, who was lying on the bed, heard these words, her face flushed with anxiety, her mouth kept making "wuwuwu" sounds, her body twisted and struggled desperately, as if she was eager to speak to defend herself.

"She also said that she was from the Military Control Commission, but we don't believe it. Although they cooperate with our people on the surface, we all keep to ourselves. They must be spies planted by the Japanese in the anti-Japanese war team, who come here deliberately to cause sabotage." Jiang Jiyun thought that he must not let the blame of sabotaging the cooperation with the Kuomintang be put on his group of people.

Jiang Wenming walked up to Cheng Man with a stern look on his face and a black pistol in his hand.

He pressed the muzzle of the gun against Cheng Man's head and said in a cold voice, "I'm going to take the thing out of your mouth now, but you better listen to me, you'd better answer my questions honestly. If you tell me even a lie, then we won't be able to negotiate so easily. I'll just send you to hell!"

Cheng Man nodded in horror, indicating that she would cooperate fully.

At this moment, she was already full of regret, secretly cursing herself for being so careless today and actually looking down on the fat woman and the "dwarf" in front of her.

Seeing Cheng Man so obedient, Jiang Wenming reached out and took out the thing stuffed in her mouth.

After his mouth was freed, Cheng Man first stretched his facial muscles that were somewhat stiff due to being blocked for a long time, then took a deep breath and quickly explained: "We really don't have any ill will towards you. Everything I said is true and I am absolutely not lying..."

However, before she could finish, Dong Duoyu interrupted her rudely: "You keep saying that you are not lying, but where is your ID? With just your mouth, who knows whether what you said is true or false? Do you think we should believe you just because you made up a few nonsense?"

Hearing this, Cheng Man was stunned and stared at Dong Duoyu for a long time.

It was not until this moment that she suddenly realized and finally understood why these two people, one big and one small, refused to believe what she said.

So this is where the problem lies. They need to see solid evidence to prove that what they say is true.

She had just seen the big man searching her companions' bodies, but how could they carry any identification when they went out on a mission?

"We didn't bring any identification with us when we went out on the mission, but you can get it at our temporary residence," Cheng Man explained.

Jiang Wenming sneered and said, "You want us to fall into your trap? The abacus beads are about to fall on our faces."

Cheng Man now feels that whatever he says is wrong. These people just think too much.

If Jiang Jiyun knew what she was thinking, he would say that if they hadn't thought so much along the way, they would have lost their lives long ago.
