Homeland (2) (454)
"I was hunted and killed, and I fell with a bear - into - Hell Valley!"
"Sister, how can you save the big brother?"
"I didn't die before, but now—perhaps, just to see you—side." Miao Yunchang said intermittently.
"My sister-in-law and Wangwang are very good, and the people in the village who went out are fine." Liu Xingmei said with tears in her eyes that she knew that Hua Tuo was alive and Miao Yunchang was also hopeless, so she said what worried him.
"This-just-good!" Miao Yunchang stretched out his hand to wipe Ju Zixun's tears and said, "Zi-Kaoru, don't-cry, you're grown-up." ”
Ju Zixun choked and nodded frequently.
"Don't forget--kill the devil--revenge!"
Ju Zixun felt Miao Yunchang's hand sink in his hand.
"Big brother, you can't die!!"
Miao Yunchang slowly closed his eyes, leaving a smile of relief on his face.
"Big brother!" Ju Zixun hugged Miao Yunchang and cried bitterly.
At this time, Tao Zhenzong was also crying while holding his father's corpse. He was remorseful, if he hadn't done something ridiculous, his father and mother might have followed.
Graves appeared in the open space around the village, and in front of the graves of the buried, there was a wooden tombstone with his or her name simply inscribed. The person who had the coffin put it in the coffin, and the old lady Wu gave the Nanmu coffin he prepared for himself to Tao Zhenkun, and he was buried with his wife Su in a red pine coffin, and the coffin should be prepared for the Su family. Two old people with many heirs, when they died tragically, they were accompanied by only four sons and four daughters-in-law to die, but none of their grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters were there! Those who did not have a coffin were swept away with a kang or covered with firewood and grass. The three of them were full of great grief and hatred, and the tears never stopped, and the hands holding the shovel handle were all grinding calluses and blood blisters. It was not until midnight, illuminated by a lit bonfire, that the dead bodies were buried.
In addition to Miao Yunchang, Ju Zixun was faced with a strange corpse.
Only the corpse of a Japanese man who had lost his head and the body of an unknown person were not buried, and became food for cats, dogs, magpies, crows and wolves.
Who revealed the news that Inukai Saburo died here that killed so many people. Liu Xingmei thought about it, could this fat man be Hao Zhuang? Because he may have learned about it through Hao Qiang, but did his relatives ignore it? His father and sister-in-law also died tragically-
That night, the three of them, who had no appetite at all, sat in the courtyard of the Tao family's remnant snow and lit a bonfire. In the dark night, the starry sky is hazy.
Tears are flowing underneath, and hearts are grieving.
A bronze flute of Ju Zixun resounded in the sky like a cry, enveloping the entire Peace Village.
Liu Xingmei held a night pearl in the palm of her hand, and it was shining. A treasure like this must have its legend.
was slaughtered in the village, and she was even more heartbroken, and her liver and gall were broken. Because she came up with the idea of killing Inukai Saburo back then, she naturally felt ashamed of the villagers!
Such hatred, such hatred, how can it not be avenged!
The side building of the house looked to have collapsed in the earthquake, and the locked door was smashed open, and the contents were thrown into a mess, and the jars and jars were smashed.
The hateful little Japanese devil is enough to make every villager live with it!
Tao Zhenzong smoked cigarette after cigarette.
This once relied on the homeland has been ruined and extremely desolate, and may become a deserted place in the future, and can only be turned into a story in history!
The tragic situation of the villagers lying in a pool of blood made the three of them have a lingering nightmare in the future!
In this peaceful village, Liu Xingmei has experienced everything in the past three years. In silence, she silently hugged Ju Zi Kaoru into her arms. If there is no comfort, who can comfort anyone at this time?! She can understand the thoughts of Zixun, a young girl, maybe she just worshipped Miao Yunchang as an admirable hero at the beginning, and with the beginning of love, she may have regarded Miao Yunchang, the big brother, as the object of her first love-
"Zhenkun, I was going to sleep underground with you, but if I am pregnant, the Tao family will have a future, so you can look at Jiuquan! In the future, I will do something according to your ideas. Let the black tiger accompany you first, I will-" Liu Xingmei knelt in front of Tao Zhenkun's grave and cried the next morning, only then was she surprised to find that in her life, how many people walked in and out, and now there are only relatives in her mother's family, what is Tao Zhenzong who is guarding by her side now? Besides, she didn't like him at all. As a result, she is almost nothing! Or, Kaoru Juko has become another relative of hers. She wants to travel through the time tunnel to hold her man's hand tightly again, and never give up this red dust love song. However, there is a limit to what God has given mankind! made her pessimistic feel that the final destination between husband and wife is like that of her in-laws, and being buried in a big coffin is a perfect life.
A tear can be sad!
Two tears can break the bowels!
"Sister-in-law, what do you plan to do in the future?"
Liu Xingmei took out a photo from her pocket, she looked at it and said firmly:
"The country hates the family feud, as long as the little Japanese devils are not driven out of China for a day, there will be no peace! I'm going to complete a soldier's unfinished mission for him! Liu Xingmei feels like a butterfly in the chrysalis process, she has found her purpose and decided what to do in the future. That's - kill the devil! Exterminate the bandits! The first thing is to go to the county town to see what kind of surprise gifts Long Xinhui can give her. The reason why she brought Tao Zhenzong with her was because Tao Zhenzong said something to her:
"Although I am a weak scholar, I will protect you with my life when you are in danger."
These words made her both moved and resentful!
"No matter the ends of the earth, I will follow you." Tao Zhenzong swore and said. Tao Zhenkun died, and he was thinking that the woman he loved deeply who had become a widow would one day be able to become a woman who truly belonged to him.
Liu Xingmei looked at the direction of the Ghost Tower in the distance, which was out of sight, what would hell valley look like in an earthquake? She clasped her hands to her lips and shouted towards the mountains and forests in the distance:
"Please give me wings, I want to fly!"
At this time, her heart was filled with hysterical grief and indignation, and the voice echoed in the jungle valley for a long time. Then she looked at a lonely tomb not far away, where her best friend Mei Xiang was buried.
"Please give me wings, I want to fly!" Kaoru Ju also shouted.
The rising sun was shining, and several eagles were hovering in the sky.
Suddenly, before the sound fell, the cries of two different animals sounded on the top of the distant mountain.
"Look, it's a sika deer and a white fox, there are sika deer on this mountain, and the white fox really exists!"
Liu Xingmei and Ju Zixun looked in the direction of Tao Zhenzong's finger, her eyes drifted through the undulating jungle, looked at a mountaintop, and sure enough, they saw a sika deer and a white fox, they seemed to be overlooking the village in the distance-
Then the three of them rode away on horseback, wading through the waters of the Fairy River, and their whereabouts were unknown.
Wu Xiang and Yang Zehu secretly lurked back to the village to inquire about the news, thinking about the situation of their relatives, but what they saw was the devastated ruins and graves. At that time, the two of them were crying dead and alive, and they were very sad!
When the villagers heard of this terrible loss, under the grief and indignation of the destruction of the family, some young men and women took up their guns without hesitation and threw themselves into the torrent of resistance against Japan. The Wu family, led by Wu Long, made a decision after consulting with the seven brothers and donated most of the gold, silver, jewelry and money accumulated over the years to the Anti-Japanese Federation team to buy guns and ammunition to support the anti-Japanese resistance. They know that only by relying on the strength of the army can they avenge their relatives and fellow villagers!
In addition, it was also discovered that the Japanese captured a lot of laborers and began to mine on the Dragon Bone Mountain, because there were gold mines, copper mines, coal mines and silver mines in the mountains, which was a long-planned thing, and since then the resources belonging to China have been continuously transported to Japan.
The villagers have a place to stay, and they only hope to return to Heping Village one day.
Since then, people have been asking about Liu Xingmei everywhere, but no one has ever seen her again.
This story was supposed to end here, but later at the end of the story, there were four completely different versions, as if they were all legends related to Liu Xingmei.
First, it is said that there was a young and beautiful woman who took a lover and a little sister to kill a bandit leader who could fight tigers, and instead she led her brothers to resist Japan and save the country. Her lover was captured by devils and became a traitor lackey, seriously endangering the safety of anti-Japanese people. It was she who squatted in the county town for seven days and seven nights, and killed her lover with a gun.
Second: It is said that there is a young and beautiful woman who joined the Eighth Route Army and became the guerrilla leader of the unit. In a time when she was surrounded and suppressed by Japanese devils, she was the only one who managed to escape, and the other soldiers died heroically. While pursuing her, she fled to the mountains, hid in a nunnery, and became a monk.
Third: It is said that there is a young and beautiful woman, who acts chivalrous and righteous, and her skills are superbly, and she has become a female devil who kills people without blinking, but what she kills are some of the most heinous people, such as Japanese devils and bandits who spoil the people. At the same time, she helped the needy, killed the rich and helped the poor, and preached justice for the oppressed old and suffering masses, but people did not know the real name of this heroine.
Fourth: It is said that a young man and a woman were chased by a team of Japanese devils, and the two of them jumped off the cliff in the place of "Ghost Gate" because they were chased by a team of Japanese devils, but no one saw their bodies.
However, people are willing to associate these four legendary stories with Liu Xingmei to tell them.
Four years later, the Japanese fascists surrendered unconditionally, that is, in August 1945, the Soviet Union sent troops to the northeast, and the Japanese army was defeated. On August 15, 1945, the puppet emperor Pu Yi was forced to read the "Edict of Abdication" in Tongliao, and the puppet state of Manchukuo was destroyed. The villagers returned to Heping Village one after another to rebuild their homes. In addition, Wu He also led Wangwang back, and in front of Wangwang's arms, he held a simple cage containing a pair of pigeons. On Wu He's back is a three-year-old boy, named "Yi'en", no one will ask about the origin of this child, but everyone seems to understand whose "seed" this child is, but strangely, no one is critical of this wild child, and investigates its source.
Japan surrendered, but then there was a ten-year civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and the common people were still living in hardship! They are all sons and daughters of China, descendants of Yan and Huang, but they want to meet each other in arms, flesh and blood, right and wrong, in short, it is sad! It's the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other?!
From ancient times to the present, when anyone looks at the cruelty and killing of war with a compassionate eye, he can find that it is actually some people who are trying to have hegemony and glory who are the real culprits!
Later, it was common to see some pigeons hovering over the Peace Village, and some people called it "Doves of Peace". Later, when the whole country was completely liberated, the founding of New China, especially after the reform and opening up a few years later, after the motherland became increasingly prosperous, people yearned for the city, and abandoned the villages that their ancestors and fathers had held on to from generation to generation in a seemingly distant dreamland.
All in all, in the world, a word cannot explain the full connotation of love and hatred, and a trace of remembrance can only linger arbitrarily in the imagination of future generations!
Looking back, there was a small plot in it, that is, the unicorn copper lock inadvertently landed in Wu He's hand and was broken into two pieces, and a picture was found inside, which was wrapped in butter paper cloth and could prevent moisture. The above is like the words found by Liu Xingmei on the tiger skin: where the treasure is located, all in the picture, the emperor is a Teng, and the words are signed. But the figure made Wu He's cheeks redden, it turned out to be like a womanizer painting the female reproductive organs, but it can also be distinguished in the slightly mottled and blurred over time, giving people intuition and association, but it seems to be an insoluble mystery to be deciphered, fortunately, the picture is not like ordinary paper, and it can withstand the erosion of time. She wanted to throw it away in a slight anger, but thinking that it was an inheritance that Miao Yunchang could leave to the Miao family, she couldn't bear to hide it in the unicorn copper lock.
On September 29, 1972, China and Japan formally established diplomatic relations. It is said that there was a beautiful middle-aged Japanese woman who came to Northeast China with her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren, but did not meet her man, but she was asking around about a man's name - "Tao Zhenkun"!
Later, during the New Year's festival, those who did not forget their gratitude went to Tao Zhenkun's grave to worship, and they would find that wild chrysanthemums bloomed around his grave. This cemetery, with dozens of graves all at once, suddenly seemed crowded!
It was Wu He who erected a tombstone in front of Tao Zhenkun's grave.
In addition, in addition to Miao Hanxiang and his wife, there is also a tomb of Miao Yunchang in the cemetery of the Miao family, and about the last story of Miao Yunchang, maybe only Liu Xingmei knows the inside story.
Later, around Tao Zhenkun's grave, willow trees, apricot trees, and plum blossoms appeared, and every spring, the fragrance overflowed.
Only the attentive Wu He seems to have captured an unknown secret from it, in the joy of being uplifted, so she is waiting, waiting for the day when the answer appears-
"-END-"
