A Lonely Hero’s Journey 孤舟 Episode 18

Gu Yizhong wanted to talk to Xiao Junxia, ​​but because the warden was nearby, he had to pretend to be calm and wait for the opportunity. When Xie Wenchao called, the warden left in a hurry. Gu Yizhong took the opportunity to get the key and walked to Xiao Junxia's cell. However, Captain Zhang led the crowd to hide in a dark place and monitor them closely. Gu Yizhong was suspicious and looked around, only to see agents lurking. He suddenly threw down the key chain, making a loud noise, and an agent accidentally misfired. Captain Zhang was about to scold Gu Yizhong as he stepped forward quickly. The tragic scene of Jiang Boxian being shot in the past came to mind, making him feel uneasy. Upon seeing this, Captain Zhang urgently ordered him to be sent to the hospital for treatment. The situation became extremely tense.

Quan Shui suddenly received a mysterious phone call. The caller called himself Mr. Shen and informed that Jiang Boxian had been admitted to the hospital. She was anxious and wanted to go immediately. Yuqing was ordered by Zhou Zhifei to strictly guard the spring water and prevent the spring water from flowing out. However, Quanshui was determined and threatened with a gun, forcing Yuqing to drive her to the hospital. Yuqing had no choice but to obey the order, and then called Zhou Zhifei urgently to report the situation.

In the hospital, Quan Shui went into danger alone and fought off the peripheral agents. However, he was stopped by Zhou Zhifei before he could get close to Jiang Boxian's ward. Zhou Zhifei warned Quan Shui that there are traps inside and outside the ward, and the Japanese team is also coming. If you break in by force, something will happen. Seeing this, Quan Shui had no choice but to suppress his impulse and left sadly.

Zhou Zhifei then visited Jiang Boxian and expressed his deep respect for his unyielding determination to die. When the Japanese team arrived, Zhou Zhifei cleverly dealt with them and sent them away to give Jiang Boxian a chance to survive.

After returning home, Zhou Zhifei confessed to Quan Shui the truth about Uncle Jiang's first visit to Su, and sternly warned her not to act rashly again. However, Quanshui was determined and vowed to prevent Chiang Kai-shek from surrendering to the enemy, and was determined to save Chiang Boxian again. When Zhou Zhifei saw this, he was furious and threatened him with a gun. He ordered Yuqing to confiscate all the weapons in Quanshui to prevent accidents. A storm has subsided for the time being, but undercurrents are surging and the future is unpredictable.

After careful consideration, Gu Yizhong decided to use authentic tactics to rescue Xiao Junxia. After he reported to his superiors and received approval, he immediately sought Fugui's assistance. Faced with Fugui's doubts, Gu Yizhong firmly denied that the teacher's death was related to him, and frankly admitted that his trip was to save the underground party. After hearing this, Fugui's doubts disappeared, he patted his shoulder and praised him as the son of a true master, and he happily agreed.

Later, Gu Yizhong visited Xiao Ruotong and told that his sixth brother was still alive. Xiao Ruotong was so excited that his eyes flashed with tears. Gu Yizhong handed over a map of Suzhou's underground pipelines, elaborated on the rescue plan, and asked Xiao Ruotong to contact Fugui the next day. Xiao Ruotong was convinced that Gu Yizhong was not a traitor, so he returned the pen to show his trust. When she left, her steps were light and she felt relieved, like a bird flying freely.

Xiao Ruotong arrived as promised, and Fugui was already waiting with his team. When they first met Xiao Ruotong, the three earth diggers looked contemptuous, but Fugui supported him and emphasized his talent in understanding maps, so everyone restrained their attitudes. Before the start of construction, the diggers worshiped devoutly, which made Xiao Ruotong doubtful. However, looking at his actual combat capabilities, he realized that Fugui's words were true and that the team was indeed an expert.

Gu Yizhong returned to No. 90, and Huang Xinzhai summoned him privately to show him the spring water information. The spring water in the photo is exactly what Hai Mo said about his cousin. Huang Xinzhai revealed that Quanshui's trip was aimed at instigating Zhou Zhifei's rebellion, and Director Wan Lilang had laid a dragnet, vowing to capture Quanshui. While the two were having a secret conversation, a slight sound came from outside the door. It turned out that Xie Wenchao had accidentally eavesdropped, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment.
