56 train delays
First of all, the secret of the menu

1942 On an ordinary morning in autumn, Xu Quanwu, the head of the archives department of the Puppet Manchukuo Police Station, walked into the office. The first thing he did was to ask his men Xiaowu to mention Wang Huainv, the broadsword. He is like the mother of a dragon, with a big mouth and a big hand. Charles was scared. Du Hu colluded with the officers and men to kidnap Charles' father and asked Charles to go to Ai Yu to pretend that Ai Yu would evaluate the jade. In fact, Du Hu colluded with the officers and men and set a trap for Ai Yu. As long as Ai Yu, a strong competitor, is removed, Du Hu can enjoy the reputation of "Jade Carver of the Great Song Dynasty" exclusively. Knife. However, in fact, the broadsword Wang Huainv is a beautiful woman, and there is a much-told story in it! Zi handed over a list and said, "My old man is going to treat me at Deshun Building tonight. Please reserve a table. "

Xiao Wuzi took the menu and said awkwardly, "Xu Changke, you don't know, do you?"

Xu Quanwu frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Xiao Wuzi stepped forward and said, "The shopkeeper of Deshunlou was arrested for Tong Tong, and the restaurant closed last night!" Seeing Xu Quanwu in a daze, Xiaowuzi immediately said, "I'll give you another one." Xu Quanwu waved back to the menu and said, Wang Jia and the villagers have lived a happy life since then, and this story has been handed down. "Let me ask the old man which dish he wants to eat."

Xiao Wuzi went out, and Xu Quanwu was afraid, thinking it would be a bad thing. Xu Quanwu is a native, and his family has some influence in the local area. Because of his superb stone carving skills, his great-grandfather was made king of stone by the emperor. Later, he opened his own quarry, gradually developed his family business and became a local rich man. Xu Quanwu joined the underground party when he was studying. When I came back, I bought an official position, entered the police station, and became the master of the Xu family. The work was very convenient. Therefore, this secret line is strictly protected in organization and has little contact. Just yesterday, he received an urgent telegram asking for the menu to be sent to Deshun Building. The people in the organization didn't say much, except that once the shopkeeper saw the menu, he would know what to do. I think this is not an ordinary menu, but a confidential document that needs to be deciphered. Don't want to have time to contact, Deshun Building was terminated, and Xu Quanwu was safe, but he knew that the old lady wouldn't be angry if the task was not very urgent. See what he wrote below. Unexpectedly, the teenage man looked into the old lady's eyes and wrote the word "roll". This old lady is no ordinary old lady. Before retiring, she worked as a coach in the city martial arts hall. The old lady's martial arts are of great use. She can't stand it. She stepped forward and kicked the person who wrote to him to the ground. What should he do next?

Xu Quanwu decided to explore the reality. He has never contacted the shopkeeper of Deshun Building, so there should be no connection. Yesterday, it was Liu, the captain of the police force, who seized Deshun Building. He was busy transferring witnesses and evidence to my gendarmerie. When Xu Quanwu came in, he just said hello.

Xu Quanwu looked at the messy things in the room, shook his head and sighed, and said, "These people have a bad business and nothing to do. My old man loves to eat their food, but he didn't eat it this time! "

Liu has a good friendship with Xu Quanwu on weekdays. Without his benefits, he smiled and said, "You are a 24-year-old dutiful son. There is a home-cooked dish of Deshunlou over there. Go and copy it down and let the cook do it. " Xu Quanwu's heart jumped with a jerk. Although the menu in Deshun Building is shabby and old, it is the most important in the restaurant. The menu in his hand must be deciphered. Will the decryption code be hidden in the menu? Thought of here, he is a stranger, sat down behind Liu's desk, picked up the recipe and copied it. He copied the last line, just as Liu Ye prepared something, picked up the menu and left.

Xu Quanwu took the menu home. As soon as he entered the door, his daughter-in-law Lan Xiu greeted him and whispered, "I didn't send the menu. Something happened to Deshun Building! " Lan Xiu and Xu Quanwu are classmates and joined the anti-Japanese organization together. There are no secrets between them.

Lan Xiu was puzzled by what Xu Quanwu brought back. She sighed, "this formula is very common, you can't see the pattern. Is it hidden in the original formula taken away by the Japanese? "

Xu Quanwu shook his head in a hurry and said, "I can't decipher it, I don't know any tasks, and I can't get online." It seems that there is nothing I can do. "

Lan Xiu never gave up and looked at the recipe carefully. She suddenly cried, "oh, no, there is one more word in this line." Is it a mistake? "

Xu Quanwu rushed over to take a closer look and said, "Impossible, I copied it word for word, very seriously." But he read it carefully, and sure enough, there was an extra word "car", which was difficult to read. Xu Quanwu thought, the word car in the menu is useless. Will the secret be here? He and Lan Xiu searched one by one according to the menu. Needless to say, there is one more word on each menu, which adds up to exactly: Train No.56 on the 7th is one hour late.

Lan Xiu said in surprise, "Yes, this is the content of this mission. We didn't send the 56 train. It runs every two days. But how can such an old formula hide the password? "

Xu Quanwu said with a smile: "Seeing the old is not necessarily true, it's just a cover-up."

Xu Quanwu calmed down from the excitement of just deciphering the secret letter, only to find that the task was very arduous. Train 56 is a special train. Chengdai Quheng was surprised and stunned. Suddenly, he heard drums and music. Someone helped the old birthday girl out early and sat squarely in the plush chair in the middle of Shouzhang. I saw the old birthday girl's silver beard hanging over her chest, full of energy, and kept waving to the guests. They bowed and sat down according to their seniority. No one knows Dai Quheng or pays attention to him. Only the old man who sells wine finds him and wants to pull him to sit beside him. Unexpectedly, Dai Quheng broke away from the old man who sold wine and went straight to the old birthday girl, bringing great products to the old birthday girl. It carries the transportation task from Dingxian to Beigang, which has an airport. Because anti-Japanese organizations have seriously damaged the railway, the Japanese attach great importance to it. This section of railway is impregnable, and it is even more impossible to delay the train. Lan Xiu and Xu Quanwu are in trouble again.

Xu Quanwu glanced at the calendar card. It's already the 6 th, and he's only one day away. What will the shopkeeper in Deshun Building do? He can't guess. Now he can only finish the task by himself.

Second, the most important thing on the train

At this time, it was already dawn. Lan Xiu thought for a while and said, "You should go to the station to explore the bottom first. I think if the 56 train carries military supplies as usual, there should be no impact in the back. Now the war situation is a state of confrontation, and the fighting pattern will not change much in a short time. I'm afraid there are more important things in this car. "

Xu Quanwu stood up and said, "OK, I'll ask what will be on the No.7 56 train."

He has a wide local network, and the stationmaster has a good relationship with him. Sure enough, Xu Quanwu, I'm glad you came. I found that there will be an important passenger on the 7 th of the 56 th train, but no one knows the identity of this passenger, except that he is being watched by the county hospital at this time. Passengers will be escorted before the train leaves tomorrow. At this time, Xu Quanwu already had plans. If important passengers don't get on, the train can't leave. He can only start here.

However, this mysterious passenger can't be found. Lan Xiu played cards with the dean of the county hospital until the evening, but she didn't tell the truth. When I got home, it was time to light the lamp. Xu Quanwu smoked everywhere in the room, Lan Xiu complained, and opened the window to get some air.

Lan Xiu urged, "You can't help worrying like this. The organization did not directly assign tasks to you, and there is nothing you can do if you can't finish it. "

Xu Quanwu stared and said, "Can you say that? The soldiers in front are bleeding. We can stay here until midnight. It's dark and there are no stars in the sky. The evil wind bursts, and from time to time there are two owls barking, which adds a bit of horror to this night. Ma Douxian was walking in an empty alley with a wicker basket, and his goose bumps were layered on his body. Walking, the wicker basket suddenly sank, and Ma Dou dared to ask, "Who are you? "Do your part, let them lose less! Shirley bowed her head and didn't speak for a long time. " There is nothing the station can do, and neither can the hospital. I can only find a way on the road. By the way, I heard that an ambulance will be driven tomorrow to send people on the train. We can't find help, and we can't rob people. What else can we do? The bus will leave at 8: 30 tomorrow morning. "

Xu Quanwu stood up, thought for a moment and said, "With a car? That is to say, this person is inconvenient to move. The train leaves at 8: 30, and it is estimated that the hospital bus will also leave at 8: 00. We must start before this. "

Lan Xiu said, "Take your time. I want to sleep now. Tomorrow, three weddings will meet unexpectedly. "

Xu Quanwu asked: "Whose family?"

Lan Xiu said, "You don't have anything on your mind. I didn't tell you that tomorrow is a good day. I don't know why you are crazy. The three richest families in this county all have happy events, one marries a daughter, the other a daughter-in-law and the other a concubine. Fortunately, the time is staggered, otherwise it is really lively. " The speaker was careless, but the audience was very interested. A plan haunts Xu Quanwu's mind. He let Lan Xiu sleep first, put on his clothes and went out.

Third, there are spiritual stone archways.

Early the next morning, Xu Quanwu was sitting in his office drinking tea when he suddenly heard a commotion in the yard of the police station and someone rushed in and out. Seeing Xiao Wuzi look flustered, he stopped him and asked, "What's the matter?" Xiaowuzi wiped a sweat and said, "This time something big happened, and the stone archway appeared!"

The stone archway in Dingxian County was created by Xu Quanwu's great-grandfather and took seven years to complete. At that time, it was called the champion archway to commemorate the first champion in this county. Ten years later, Dingxian people got up one morning and suddenly found two red lights under the faucet of the archway. It happened that a family married a daughter-in-law, and the new daughter-in-law was just made at sunrise, and she wanted to get off the sedan chair and give gifts to the archway. Emperor Kangxi suddenly remembered that an old monk told him a story on the top of the mountain. On the archway, the two red ones are more conspicuous, and everyone is amazed. Unexpectedly, the new wife gave birth to a big fat boy in the second year and won the first prize when she grew up. Therefore, the old people say that if we can get married when the memorial archway appears, we can do it at sunrise and worship at sunset, and we can give birth to the champion. Although there is no emperor or court now, who doesn't want a noble family?

Originally, it was an auspicious day. All three families in the county have happy events, and when they hear about the epiphany, how can they not be pleasing? Coupled with the temporary help of the small door, the whole street was crowded with people.

When Xu Quanwu arrived at Paifang Street, it was already a sea of people. He squeezed into the crowd, only to find that what came here was the dowry of the daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce and the third aunt of the team captain Luo. Lin, the son of the pawnbroker, was riding a tall horse and was surrounded by people. The horse made an uneasy wheezing sound from time to time, which only surprised people.

Look at the archway, the stone archway is three meters high, and the dragons and phoenixes carved on it are very beautiful. The so-called epiphany is to hang two red marks on the Longkou stone pillars at the two corners of the archway, and the red one is very eye-catching.

Liu Daming was maintaining order with his men when Xu Quanwu tried his best to squeeze into his side and said, "Is this understandable? Let them go. When the service is over, the people will leave. "

Liu Daming was sweating profusely, and a rich boy came to propose. My uncle agreed, but Swan disagreed. She also said that in this life, no one will marry except harmony. If her father forces her again, she will jump into the river and commit suicide. My uncle didn't dare to bully his daughter, so the swan's marriage was dragged down. Said angrily, "Do you think I want to take care of it? The road is blocked, and so is the ambulance in the county hospital. The gendarmerie called. Can I not clear it? "

Xu Quanwu stretched out his neck and saw an ambulance surrounded by a pile of dowry, unable to move, and the driver kept honking his horn. He was busy pretending to command pedestrians, but the more he commanded, the more chaotic he became. There is a local wedding custom. There is no turning back in the sedan chair, and no one refuses to retreat, so they can only move forward. In this way, Paifang Street was blocked like an iron bucket, and even a mosquito could not fly.

Fourth, the unexpected ending.

Xu Quanwu secretly counted the time. Now you can imagine how loud his voice is. Almost the whole palace is shaking! It has been delayed for more than half an hour now, which means that the plan will be reached after another half an hour. Just as he was secretly pleased, suddenly Xiao Wuzi squeezed in and dragged him out. Xu Quanwu asked what was going on. Xiao Wuzi said, "Let's go, it's not safe here. I heard at the police station that the Japanese gendarmerie was in a hurry and wanted to send someone over and shoot everyone who stood in the way! "

Xu Quanwu didn't expect this person to get involved with her husband's family. The eldest son-in-law has always wanted to make fun of the meat head, and the son-in-law also made fun of it. When the son-in-law saw that their heads were getting bigger and bigger, he put up with it. Yao is serious, and his heart is pounding. If so, he will become a sinner. It turned out that this move was his idea. He has lived in Dingxian since childhood and knows the customs here. Yesterday, Lan Xiu said that three big families chose this day to get married, so he designed a road for all three wedding teams to come to Paifang Street to block the road. Dingxian is a small town with poor roads. Some time ago, there was a flood. Except Paifang Road, other roads are muddy and difficult to walk, and the county hospital is at the corner, so ambulances have to take this road to get there.

Ma Dazhu is an enthusiastic person. He told Song that he was willing to help Song find the box. Ma Zhu thought: The Song family is a big family. Since Song Jiayan said that what was in Xiao Mu's box was very important, it was definitely expensive. If I can help him find Xiao Mu's box, he will definitely reward me for coming to the archway just after cleaning it at five o'clock in the morning. These two red marks were sprayed in red ink on Lan Xiu's perfume bottle. He calculated that it should be very fast from the discovery of the archway to the news of the three families, and they will gather their troops as soon as possible and arrive at the archway street at sunrise, that is, at seven o'clock. Such an ambulance will be difficult to fly. But now the Japanese are in a hurry. How many lives will be lost if they attack those who stand in the way!

Thought of here, he tried to squeeze out, only to see a team of Japanese military police running from a distance. Liu Daming bowed with a Japanese officer and didn't know what to say. Xu Quanwu did not dwell on the mystery of Zhou Muwang's visit to the Queen Mother of the West.

Zhou Muwang visited the Queen Mother of the West. When he dodged in the crowd, he fired a shot into the sky. This shot exploded the crowd, and someone shouted: "The Japanese are coming!" The Japanese are ruthless and have nothing to be afraid of. Everyone with legs has run away. Xu Quanwu slightly reassured. In just a few minutes, the street that was just full of people is now empty. Because I was in a hurry, I didn't take all the bride price and dowry, and even the sedan chair where the bride was sitting was thrown down. The ground was a mess, and the ambulance still couldn't move.

Xu Quanwu was as busy as a bee. I became enemies with foxes and went to the Woods to look for them in the name of forest protection. Wei made a distribution map, divided dozens of forest areas into dozens of small squares, searched again and again and crossed them out, but couldn't find them. Who knows that I didn't even find one-tenth of the place, and suddenly a strong wind blew, and overnight, the whole desert forest belt became unknown, and the signboard I made had been blown away without a trace. I had to take passive defense and block the chicken coop door tighter. Go up to him and say, "Hurry up!" Say that finish personally go up to move things, Liu Daming said also walked past. The Japanese gendarmerie was ordered to go up to help, and Paifang Street became lively again.

Xu Quanwu stole a look at his pocket watch. Up to now, there has been traffic jam for forty minutes. At the present speed, the road surface will be cleaned immediately, and it only takes more than ten minutes for the ambulance to get to the railway station. In other words, he failed to complete the blocking task for an hour.

He took a deep breath and had to make a final plan. While everyone was not looking, he came to the right side of the archway, where there was a protruding stone deed, which he played last night. Just knock a few times and the stone will fall. Ten years ago, an earthquake shook the archway and it was crumbling. No one dared to walk under the archway at that time. It was Xu Quanwu's old father who came out and straightened the stone archway with two stone deeds. As always, stability has become a story for a time.

Xu Quanwu knocked off one stone last night, leaving only a little of the other. As for the stone deed, his father told him that the deed would not fall in the archway, but it would if it was not in the archway. There is no choice now. While people were not paying attention, Xu Quanwu took out a hammer hidden at the foot of the archway and slammed the stone deed in the tumultuous voice. ...

Just as the road surface was gradually cleared, suddenly someone shouted, "Run, the archway will fall down!" " "Everyone looked up, and sure enough, the archway shook and everyone fled for their lives. Suddenly, the arch collapsed. Fortunately, the archway collapsed almost directly and no one was injured. However, there is no way to clean up such a route. The memorial archway consists of hundreds of stones, the diameter of which is two or three meters, and the diameter of which is dozens of centimeters, which blocks a road.

The Japanese are really in a hurry. Have the road cleaned at once. Small stones are easy to handle, but big stones cannot be moved. After a long discussion, they had to change the car for the patient. It is inconvenient to use a car in a war environment. There is only one ambulance, so we have to transfer another truck with a hood. Here, a man covered with white sheets was carried down from the ambulance, across Paifang Street, onto a truck and sent to the railway station to eat and sleep. The old coquettish fox said, "Who will sleep with my uncle tonight?" Biting a child will say, "I slept with my uncle." The latch reached out to her and said, "My uncle's milk smells like old people, and my three sisters sleep together." The old coquettish fox said, "You three sleep together!" The elder sister didn't dare to sleep, and the second and third sisters were too scared to sleep. The elder sister arrived at the second sister, and the second sister arrived at the third sister. They all pretended to be asleep and began to snore one after another. Let's go

In this way, the 56 train has been delayed for 70 minutes.

End of movement

Regarding this incident, Xu Quanwu has not waited until the following. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the anti-Japanese organizations in Dingxian county have been destroyed, and all the insiders of the train delay incident have disappeared, which has become a mystery in his heart.

Thirty years later, Xu Quanwu, who has entered his twilight years, came across a book about Japanese generals who invaded China. One of the records mentioned Dingxian and Train 56. Train No.56 1942 was 70 minutes late, which made Okada fail to catch the plane home. Two days later, he died of illness. Unfortunately, this generalist in command died because of traffic jam before he could play a role in the battlefield.

Xu Quanwu realized that the traffic jam he designed was also part of the Anti-Japanese War.
