Chapter 265: Unforgettable

After collecting the money and bracelets, my father ran out of the alley to chase the parade team, and looked for Wang Sihe in the team, but he still couldn't find it, and even Zhou Qiaofeng couldn't find it. My father estimated that these two must have gone elsewhere, and he was in a hurry, but he couldn't help it. To say that leaving Wang Sihe to run alone, my father didn't even think about it.

Towards lunch, the parade ended, and my father returned to the compound with the crowd.

The first thing I did when I returned to the compound was to go back to the dormitory, but there was no one in the dormitory, until these people rang the bell for lunch, Wang Sihe and Zhou Qiaofeng walked in from the gate of the compound side by side. My father had already found the whole compound, and at this time he was sitting in a grass nest next to the gate of the compound and waiting, he was mainly worried, worried that something would happen to his brother.

Seeing Wang Sihe enter the door, my father breathed a sigh of relief, got up from the grass nest and walked towards the two of them. My father found that the relationship between Wang Sihe and Zhou Qiaofeng warmed up very quickly, as fast as a rocket, and they had just known each other for a morning. At that time, my father didn't know what it meant to be love at first sight, what it meant to be familiar at first sight, or what it meant to meet thousands of miles away.

During the meal, my father forcibly pulled Wang Sihe to a corner of the canteen where no one was, and asked him in a low voice, where did he run during the parade, Wang Sihe took the rice in his mouth, and looked not far away, looking absent-minded, my father asked him several times before saying, Zhou Qiaofeng took him to the town for a turn, their town is so good, I like their town very much. My father looked at Wang Sihe helplessly, and he didn't know whether the town was really good, or the people were so good, whether he liked the town or people.

My father didn't ask anything anymore, but while eating, he found that Wang Sihe was looking at Zhou Qiaofeng, as if he stopped for two seconds and didn't look, as if the girl could be lost.

Wang Sihe stood up with the bowl several times, and it seemed that he wanted to go over to find Zhou Qiaofeng, but he was forcibly stopped by my father. My father said that we didn't run the parade, and when the memorial service was held, we would see if we could run away, and at this time, you were not allowed to leave my side for half a step. Wang Sihe nodded when he heard this, but my father felt that his ears were listening, but his heart was not listening.

At this time, Zhou Qiaofeng also peeked at them from time to time, occasionally the two of them looked at each other at the same time, and a pair of eyes quickly separated, Zhou Qiaofeng twisted his face and smiled shyly, Wang Sihe held a big bowl, grinning exaggeratedly and smirking, it is estimated that he doesn't know what kind of meal he is eating today.

This meal was finally finished in a disturbing manner, so my father kept looking at Wang Sihe, did not ask him to leave his sight, and explained to him, you have to understand the identities of the two of us, and it is not a good thing to have less contact with these people. Wang Sihe just nodded blindly, whether he listened or not, it was another matter.

At the memorial service in the afternoon, Liu Xiaohua's gang actually came, but it was reasonable for them to come, fortunately, the little girl Xiaoru had already left, otherwise they would definitely be recognized.

Liu Xiaohua's gang is in their twenties, there are men and women, not only them, but they also have three people in custody. My father and Wang Sihe were mixed in the crowd of the Erqi faction, and looked at the three people, the Red Star faction, and all of them were the small leaders around Zhou Jianhong, at this time, the three people were worse than the other, not to mention the blue nose and swollen face, and limped, one of the three people was a girl, not only with a blue nose and swollen face, but also disheveled, I don't know what Liu Xiaohua and these people did to her. Fortunately, fortunately, the little girl Xiaoru was not treated like this.

No matter whose memorial service it is, it is nothing more than singing praises to the deceased, in my father's eyes, others can sing praises when they die, and for these Red Guards who are like crazy demons, there is nothing to sing about.

After the memorial service was held, the next thing was to bury the deceased, or the eight people before, or the two door panels, the deceased didn't even have a coffin, and then Wang Sihe heard Zhou Qiaofeng say that they also wanted to get a coffin for the deceased, but there was nowhere to go, the carpenters who made the coffins were beaten into cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and the original ready-made coffins in the carpenter's house had already been burned for them as four old chopping firewood.

The place where the dead were buried, they called the "Martyrs' Cemetery", was just north of their town, and there was a crop field next to the town.

Originally, on the way to the cemetery, my father planned to take Wang Sihe to leave together, but Wang Sihe was a little reluctant at this time, procrastinating and saying that he was not feeling well, so he had to stay here overnight and leave tomorrow. My father knew what he was thinking, and when he saw Wang Sihe like this, my father's heart softened at that time, so he accommodated him.

In the cemetery, there were already several graves side by side, and those graves also had headstones, on which were written the names of the deceased, the date of birth, the date of death, the biographical resume, and so on. My father didn't bother to look closely, and they were all Red Guards anyway.

These Red Guards didn't pay attention to the funeral pattern, so they dug pits side by side, and the pits were dug by the three "captives" of the Red Star Sect brought by Liu Xiaohua and them, and they dug for most of the day. However, there is one thing that my father doesn't quite understand, why did two dead people dig five pits, and who are the other pits for?

After the dead were buried, my father finally understood what the other pit was for. After burying the two deceased of the Erqi faction, Liu Xiaohua and they let the three "captives" of the Red Star faction kneel on the grave to confess, and after the confession, there was a scene that my father will never forget!

A few of the people in the Erqi faction with guns dragged the three members of the Red Star Sect to the other three pits and made them kneel on the edge of the pits, and three of them stood behind them with their rifles in their hands, and the muzzles of the guns were aimed at the back of their heads, and one of them shouted a trumpet, prepare--prepare-

Bang!

After the gunshots that tore through the sky, my father realized that this was called a funeral......

During that period, countless people were buried alive, shot, and humiliated to death. Some historians have compared the "Red Guards" with the "Boxers", burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil.

Don't scold, my father-in-law is also a Red Guard, and his family has been poor peasants for several generations, and at that time, he was a member of our city's 27th faction combat team. I asked him several times, and I asked him if you had beaten anyone at the time? He lowered his head and looked at the ground in a daze, with a very special expression on his face, with pain and struggle, at most he didn't want to mention it. Once, I asked him again, he was looking at the ground in a daze, and his little grandson next to him asked him, Grandpa, what is the combat team? My father-in-law woke up like a dream, raised his head and said to his little grandson, the combat team is to beat people.

Fight the bad guys? The little grandson asked.

My father-in-law said that good people and bad people are beaten, and whoever is not pleasing to the eye will be beaten......

In order to write this history, I asked a lot of people, and I also looked up some information on the Internet, and I was dizzy just to check the information, who knows, the most boring part seems to be the place where I spend the most painstaking efforts.

The people I asked, whether they were the Red Guards or the people who were criticized and fought back then, they didn't want to recall that period of the past, and when they asked, they were in a daze, and most of them said they couldn't remember. Some experts say that this is called selective forgetting, or selective amnesia. During the Cultural Revolution, many people's memories were blank, as if they were sealed in a corner, and they never wanted to uncover it again.

Straight to the point. On the way back to the compound, my father was in a daze, and there was always the bloody scene in front of him, like a movie replaying over and over again: a living person kneeling there, a gunshot rang out, a bullet went through the back of the head, half of his face was gone, and a large patch of blood and scraps of flesh was splashed on the ground.

Are these gun-shooting people still human? I looked left and right around me, and my faces were blurry and insensitive, like the faces of the devil in hell!

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Wang Sihe gently tugged at my father's sleeve.

My father didn't look at him, looked at the road that was shaking under his feet, and muttered, "Go home, go home, go home tonight......"

However, after returning to the courtyard, my father fell ill and could not wake up with a high fever, and in the chaos, I saw Wang Sihe and the little girl Xiaoru, pulling them to the edge of the pit, and smashing their heads with one shot, and the blood, like a fountain, sprayed on my father's face, and flowed down his face and into his neck......

Two days later, Wang Sihe left the compound with my father on his back. As soon as I walked into the town, my father woke up on Wang Sihe's back, looked around, blurred, and asked Wang Sihe, "Sihe, where is this?" ”

Wang Sihe said, "Brother, you are sick, I will carry you to the town health center to see a doctor." ”

My father struggled to get off Wang Sihe's back and said weakly: "I don't need to see a doctor, let's go home now, go home and my illness will be cured." ”

"Brother......" Wang Sihe was a little embarrassed.

"Are you going back? If you don't go back, I'll go back by myself. As he spoke, my father pushed Wang Sihe away and staggered in the direction of home, but after not taking a few steps, he fell to the ground.

Wang Sihe ran over and tried to help my father up, but my father pushed him away again, "I know, you have thoughts about the girl surnamed Zhou, but we are not all the way with them, brother will ask you now, go back with my brother?" Or stay? ”

Wang Sihe stood up and reluctantly looked in the direction of the compound, and then, he turned his head and looked at my father on the ground, his eyes were red, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, I'll go back with you!" But...... But we have to find a doctor to take care of your illness first. ”

My father smiled dismally, struggled on the ground, staggered up, gasped and said, "As long as you go back, my brother will not be sick......" As he spoke, his body was crooked, and he was about to plant on the ground, Wang Sihe hurriedly supported him, "Brother, be careful." ”

After that, Wang Sihe helped my father, and while walking in the direction of home, he reluctantly turned back to look at the courtyard......

I couldn't even say goodbye......

Many years later, my father asked Wang Sihe, did you blame me back then? Wang Sihe replied firmly, resentful!

Regret it?

No regrets.

Do you still miss her?

I wonder if she'll remember me......

(Don't talk about my father, who burned his own fire, turned around and put out Wang Sihe's fire with a soak of urine, in fact, Wang Sihe and the girl will not have results, and the girl will be mentioned in the next chapter, and you will evaluate my father after reading the next chapter.) By the way, now I am writing about my father, although it has nothing to do with ghosts and gods, but these are closely related to my birth, and my birth was not so logical, and I came to this world after several twists and turns. )
