In my 40s, the trading system took me flying

Xu Xiaoya heard this a lot.

At first she wanted to explain more, but then she gradually stopped talking.

If you see it too much, your heart will become numb.

Along the way, there were naturally poor people as well as rich people, but Xu Xiaoya was afraid of the rich people's arrogant attitude and indifference to life.

"Do you know why such a small number of Japanese soldiers had the courage to attack us?"

Along the way, Lao Wang would sometimes ask Xu Xiaoya some questions. Xu Xiaoya had studied history and had done historical analysis questions, so how could she not know about the century-long history of humiliation.

The most powerful thing about the Japanese is not how powerful their weapons are, but their ability to win people's hearts.

They took advantage of many people who were afraid of death and liked the feeling of having a little power in their hands. The more despicable the person, the less moral bottom line they had.

From ancient times to the present, both at home and abroad.

Playing with people's hearts is a favorite tactic of politicians.

There are many passionate young people, but they cannot withstand too many teammates who are a drag on their team.

Xu Xiaoya had followed Lao Wang and Hu Yaqin and had seen all kinds of life. She wanted to make some excuses at the beginning, but then she became silent.

Even if she saw people selling children, she would not get angry and try to stop it. She would just watch silently. As long as no lives were endangered, she would not lose her compassion.

This is the way the times are. If the overall environment does not change, even if we save some individuals, there is still no guarantee that they will be able to survive in the future.

The whole society is sick, and Xu Xiaoya can only quietly leave some food in the dark. As for how many people this food can help, she doesn't know, but she at least did the only thing she could do.

Lao Wang did not object to Xu Xiaoya's behavior because he knew too well that the sadness of the times could not be influenced by an individual, and it was not easy for Xu Xiaoya to maintain her original intention.

Because I just walked, even though I took a ride in the middle, it still took me half a month to reach my destination.

Hu Yaqin still had a mission to complete, so she left alone first. Lao Wang took Xu Xiaoya and continued to head south, saying that they wanted to go to some coastal cities, especially a mountain city.

It is said that there are many brothers there who are very enthusiastic about the war of resistance, and Xu Xiaoya is also curious about the humanities and geography of the mountain city.

Just arriving in the mountain city and looking at the layers of mountains, Xu Xiaoya couldn't help but be amazed.

"No wonder the Japs didn't come here!"

How can we get here? I guess the Japanese invaders will not be able to escape from the mountain city even if they run their legs off.

If it weren't for like-minded comrades leading the way, Xu Xiaoya and the others would probably have gotten lost in this city.

There were people everywhere. They looked relaxed and optimistic. Although they were not tall, each of them carried a big backpack and walked step by step on the mountain road with their bent backs.

Mountain songs could be heard from time to time, and people's faces were not filled with numb despair, but with smiles.

Many girls wear flowers in their hair and their clothes are very bright. Even the elderly like to braid flowers in their hair.

The colorful flowers make the city very warm.

The loud voices carry a sense of joy, and it seems that all sorrows will disappear with their optimistic and open-minded attitude.

The children running in the mountains are never idle at a young age. Everyone is doing what they can. It seems that they are not a burden, but the most lively existence in this mountain city.

Xu Xiaoya felt the air became much lighter as soon as she stepped out of this mountain city.

Especially the unique hearty laughter of Sichuan girls. Although Xu Xiaoya didn’t understand it, she liked to imitate them.

The language barrier is a big obstacle, but fortunately Xu Xiaoya has a very strong learning ability.

I quickly learned some simple words and also noticed the unique charm of the local dialect.

If she didn't have to work with Lao Wang, she would have wanted to stay and live a little longer.

So contagious.

Whether it's the vendors carrying various fruits on a shoulder pole or the people shouting in the streets, it's hard to dislike them.

Xu Xiaoya asked Lao Wang: "They say the road to Shu is difficult, harder than ascending to the sky, but here we have a life that even gods would envy!"

Old Wang was quite surprised that she, a child, could say such things.

"As the saying goes, 'You shouldn't go to Sichuan when you're young, and you shouldn't leave Sichuan when you're old! Do you know why?"

Xu Xiaoya nodded.

"I've seen such a wonderful living environment at a young age, so why would I want to go out and fight? The world outside is too cruel. This is definitely the most suitable place to spend my old age. Who would be willing to leave?"

Lao Wang smiled. Although the meaning was slightly different, it was almost the same.

He likes it here too.

The energy and passion for life here are hard to come by for people outside the mountains.

No wonder Shu has always been a mystery from ancient times to the present.

Lao Wang had a lot of things to do, so Xu Xiaoya played with the friends arranged for her by local comrades every day and made many good friends.

Either they go up the mountain to catch birds or go down to the river to fish.

Xu Xiaoya was not afraid of strangers and was very capable, so she soon had many followers.

Even Lao Wang looked at it with envy.

That is a unique charm of Xu Xiaoya. If she grows up, she will definitely be the most powerful leader.

Happy times are always short. After Lao Wang finishes his work, Xu Xiaoya will leave with him.

But when she was leaving, her friends were reluctant to let her go and gave her many small gifts.

Xu Xiaoya promised them that she would write to them whenever she had the chance, and also told them to learn to read so that they would not be unable to understand the letters she wrote to them in the future.

Reluctantly leaving the mountain city, Xu Xiaoya and Lao Wang did not walk back on foot, but took a ride.

It just so happened that a train to Nanjing was opened from the mountain city.

A train is always better than walking. I thought I could save energy, but I never expected that the train was full of Japanese devils.

When Xu Xiaoya and Lao Wang noticed something was wrong, they knew something was going to happen.

In particular, they saw several particularly suspicious passengers who had been trying to make people ignore their existence, but they had a temperament of being ready to die.

"Old Wang, do you think anyone will blow up this train if they find out it's full of Japanese?"

It's not impossible!

Xu Xiaoya had just made a casual guess, but Lao Wang's face changed drastically.

"You crow mouth, how dare you say anything?"

Because just after Xu Xiaoya finished speaking, they saw a man suddenly stand up and walk towards the carriage full of Japanese devils half an hour after the train started, and he was wearing a coat.

It was hot at this hour, so it was strange to wear a coat, but as he walked, he said to the people on both sides of the aisle, "Run!"

What does it mean?

Xu Xiaoya and Lao Wang were not in the aisle, but when they heard this sentence, they knew something was wrong.

The train is still running, where can they run to?

Hopping a train?
