In life, Gu Qing is confident that his feelings are not very fragile. For several days and nights, he had heard the indiscriminate bombardment of enemy artillery fire in the trenches, and he had also drifted on the ocean in the unfathomable middle of the night, and experienced the attack of a magnitude 8 storm. At these moments when his life was in danger at any time, Gu Qing's feelings had not fluctuated irrepressibly. But for some reason, Gu Qing was particularly afraid of hearing the long-lasting echo that occurred in the deep valley of the mountains, and the echo echoed in the empty air, causing Gu Qing a kind of irritating pain that made him unbearable. This kind of irrepressible emotional change is not easy for others to understand.

This is probably related to Gu Qing's following experience.

In 1942, about 38 years ago, Gu Qing was only 22 years old, and at that time, he went to Yuanxi County, not far from Huangyuan, to collect the Xintianyou folk song 'Orchid Flower' in the old base area of Yan'an, because of his work......"

Tian Xiaoxia couldn't help but read it when she looked at it, this is a story that happened many years ago, the story also happened on the Loess Plateau, the poor girl Cui Qiao in the countryside, since she was a child, her father was the master of the baby, she couldn't get rid of the bad luck, so she had to use the song of "Xintianyou" to express her inner pain.

Gu Qing, a literary and artistic worker of our army in Huangyuan, Shaanxi, came to Cuiqiao's house to collect folk songs; Through a period of life and labor, Cuiqiao's family regarded this "public family" as their own family.

Gu Qing told about the situation of women's marital autonomy in Huangyuan, and after Cui Qiao listened, her yearning came spontaneously; Daddy is kind, but ignorant, he wants Cui Qiao to get married in April..... the story is written to be broken, and the following has not been written, Tian Xiaoxia raised her head, "Shaoping, what happened later?" Did Cui Qiao follow Gu Qing to Huangyuan? ”

In fact, from the first paragraph, Tian Xiaoxia has vaguely guessed something, but she still has a trace of luck, life is hard enough, there should always be something beautiful.

"Nope." Shen Long had already prepared the meal, brought it over and put it on the table, in the later content, Gu Qing was about to leave, the old man saw Gu Qing off, and sang a song about the tragic fate of women, Gu Qing was deeply moved; Cui Qiao's younger brother Han Han followed Brother Gu and sent him one ride after another.

Turning over a mountain beam, Gu Qing saw Cui Qiao standing on the top of the peak, she opened her sweet singing voice, singing her deep affection for her father-in-law and her desire for freedom and light, she wanted to go to Huangyuan with Brother Gu, Gu Qing couldn't take her away for a while, and said goodbye to them with a sense of attachment.

In April, on the day of her wedding, Cui Qiao resolutely escaped from her husband's house and crossed the Yellow River in a small boat to pursue a new life; The wind and waves on the river are terrifying, the yellow water is rolling, and the boat is missing; Two months later, Gu Qing went to the countryside again, and Han Han rushed out of the crowd begging for rain and ran towards him.

This is the famous writer Ke Lan based on the materials he collected when he lived in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area, originally called "Echo of the Empty Valley", a few years later by the young Chen Kaige took a fancy to it, renamed "Yellow Earth" and made a movie, Chen Kaige also became famous with this movie, and established his status in the film industry.

Director Chen Kaige has won many director awards at the Locarno International Film Festival, the Edinburgh Film Festival, the London International Film Festival, the Hawaii International Film Festival, and the Tokyo Film Festival for "Yellow Earth".

Photographer Zhang Yimou has also won many best photography awards such as the Golden Rooster Award, the Nantes Tricontinents Film Festival, and the Hawaii International Film Festival for his outstanding photography skills. These two young geniuses officially became known to the world film industry.

"What happened to Cui Qiao? Also, where did you find inspiration? Tian Xiaoxia didn't care about eating, she felt a huge shock in this unfinished book, and she desperately wanted to know the fate of the characters in the book.

"I haven't finished writing it yet, and it should be about the same when we meet next time, so you can read it then, it's not interesting to say it first." Shen Long said, "As for the source of the story, I heard it from someone at Dongguan Qiaotou, and then I did some artistic processing. ”

The background of this story is a little far away from the era in which Sun Shaoping lived, so he can only pretend to be someone else's mouth, but when the workers are bored, they do like to tell some stories, most of which are stories like radish flowers and spiritual incense, but occasionally someone will talk about the stories of the old man.

After careful consideration, Shen Long had already figured out what kind of way he should choose in this world to help Sun Shaoping improve his social class, so that he could finally be with Tian Xiaoxia.

For a rural teenager who likes literature, there is nothing more suitable than writing, his relationship with Tian Xiaoxia stems from literature, and engaging in writing will not affect their feelings, but will deepen them even more.

Shaanxi also has a rich literary soil, founded by Liu Qing, inherited by Lu Yao, Chen Zhongzhong and other inherited, constantly developing, breakthrough of the loess literary genre, originated in the fifties and sixties of the 20th century, formed in the eighties and nineties, with a realistic approach, describing the social history, culture, and changes of the times in the countryside on the loess soil, and the group of writers who pursue epic character is now sprouting.

Although Ke Lan is not from Shaanxi, his "Echo of the Deep Valley" is undoubtedly completely in line with the connotation of loess literature, deeply reflecting on the folk customs of the loess and depicting the impact of the changes of the times on the ancient countryside.

"As soon as you say that, I'm looking forward to the next meeting more and more!" Tian Xiaoxia was reluctant to put down the manuscript in her hand, "No, I'll come to you tomorrow and try to see the new content you wrote as soon as possible." ”

"No, no, no, does that affect your writing?" Tian Xiaoxia was entangled for a while, if she came back in two weeks as agreed, it would be really torturous for these two weeks, but if she came over often, it would affect the progress of writing.

"Hey, I'm a little sorry to ask you this question, if only I asked again next time, then I could see the whole thing!" Why do you think you are stuck in the most critical plot? You can't help but wonder what will happen next.

Reluctantly put down the manuscript, Tian Xiaoxia said, "Although this story has not been written yet, I can feel the charm contained in the words, Shaoping, promise me, no matter how hard life is, you must not give up reading and writing, you have this talent." ”

"Writing can really bring people an incomparable pleasure that no material pleasure can match, and I cherish this feeling." Shen Long sincerely assured that although he had copied someone else's work, he did experience this feeling in the process of revision.
