I couldn't find him, I swear, I searched every part of the mountaintop, it wasn't big, and there were only a few places where I could hide people. I believe that Cha Wenbin will not play peek-a-boo with me, I also shouted, and the shouting sound was even heard by the fat man below, but he was the only one, I didn't receive any message, he seemed to have evaporated in the world.

Here, a lonely mountain of stones rises in place, inverted trapezoidal, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The mountain is nearly 100 meters high, there is no road around, and there are smooth stone walls on both sides.

Until it got dark, until the next day, I screamed and searched in such a palm-sized place, until my throat broke until I had no strength to stand, and finally the fat man climbed up and dragged me back.

Nothing made me despair more than this result, he was gone, and I couldn't find a reason for him to say goodbye. We came from the far south to the icy and snowy old forests of the north, we are a village, we used to be classmates, we are all descendants of the black five categories, we are comrades and brothers who shared weal and woe in those difficult years!

That year was destined to be an extraordinary year, and perhaps from the beginning of spring, it was a sign that many great things would happen in this year.

Cha Wenbin's disappearance caused a commotion in the village, and the educated youth were under the management of the local branch secretary, and one less person was still the descendant of the feudal superstitious stinky Lao Jiu, which was a big deal. Some people say that he escaped by himself, and some people say that he committed suicide in fear of sin, in short, he must see people in life and corpses in death, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the organization above.

I remember very well that we returned to the village that afternoon, and Daddy Miao reported it immediately when he learned the truth. The branch secretary sent someone out to deliver the letter, hoping that the organization could go to northwest Zhejiang to understand the situation, of course, I hope that as he thought, Cha Wenbin's final destination is that he ran back to his hometown. The second is to immediately organize the militia, hunters and young adults in the village, fully armed and drive into Xishan, there are dogs, guns, and horns, I and the fat man and Yuan Xiaobai have been taken care of at this time, and the commune warehouse in the tunzi is guarded, and what is placed in front of us is a piece of paper and a pen, which is called writing materials, and let us explain the ins and outs of the matter. Because of our status, the matter has risen from disappearances to political heights.

I vividly remember that day was March 8th, because it was Women's Day, and in the afternoon I was talked to alone by the deputy captain in charge of political education in the production team, who was a cadre in his thirties, with a pair of gold-rimmed round eyes. The cigarette in his hand was already eighth, but I didn't write a word. He asked me to write that Cha Wenbin was absconding in fear of crime, and asked me to explain his specific escape direction and plan, I knew that as long as I wrote, Cha Wenbin's life would be over.

Four hours later, the vice-captain had completely lost his patience, and during these hours, he successively talked about the survival of the nation from the height of national strategy, as if Cha Wenbin was Dai Li's living confidant of President Chiang. And my answer is only three words: I don't know!

When he finished the last cigarette and slammed the butt on the ground, I saw that his hair was about to explode.

I saw him walk out of the gate and then shouted at the militia guard, "Tie up this suspected collaborator and send him directly to the county tomorrow!" ”

Then I heard him shout, "Oh my God! Come on! ”

I turned my head to look out the door, and the overcast sky suddenly turned red, and the tiles on the roof in the distance, the wheat stalks piled up, the fence outside the house, and a dog and a few chickens all turned red. There was a violent "boom" sound in my ears, as if a plane had skimmed over my head, and the next second, I heard the loudest explosion ever, much louder than the ** bag of blasting stones in the mountains of my hometown, and the wave of air directly overturned the roof, and I heard the sound of tiles falling to the ground. The table in front of me, the stool I sat on, and the whole earth shook in that moment.

Is this an earthquake? That's what I thought in my head.

"Little memory! Come on! Looks like something happened! ”

I looked up and saw that it was the fat man and the little white fire rushing over, the two of them had just been locked up in the wall of the warehouse next door where the wheat was stacked.

As soon as I stepped out of the gate, I saw the light of the fire everywhere outside, the cries of the old men in the tun, the screams of women and children, the beasts rushing out of the fence and scurrying all over the road, and the mules and pigs even colliding with each other as they ran.

I don't know what happened, but about a hundred meters away from me, the cadre who had just interrogated me was lying on his back on the ground. There was a hole the size of a sea bowl in his back, and the blood had already stained all around him, and his clothes were still emitting flames and smoke, and his body was still twitching slightly.

It's messy, in just a few seconds, I don't know if there is anyone else like him. I heard a few old men crying and shouting, "Run! This is little Japan fighting back, and bombs are being dropped from the sky! ”

"Got a war?" The fat man shouted to the old man with a sheep in his hand, but the old man ignored him, and I saw him running back to the back hill as soon as he slipped through the smoke, where there was an air-raid shelter, which was built in the past to prevent a nuclear war in the Soviet Union.

I was stunned at the time, did I really let that cadre say right, he just said clearly like me: "If Cha Wenbin is a spy who collaborates with the enemy, do you know how much disaster he will bring to our motherland?" ”

"Look!" Yuan Xiaobai shouted at us.

Following her finger, I saw a very large and bright fireball in the sky dragging its long tail towards the back of the hill, followed by a second and third......

Fireballs flew everywhere in the sky like fireworks, some large, some small, and some could be heard as a whistling "whoosh" sound when they were close, sharp and piercing. Explosions, crashes, booms, I see that the whole sky is burned red, I am just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, what can I do? I could only stand still, stupidly watching everything that suddenly happened.

Yuan Xiaobai grabbed my shoulders and jumped to my feet and shouted, "Meteorite! It's a meteorite! Oh my God, it's the end of the world! ”

As I spoke, a ball of fire fell again, and not far from us, I saw with my own eyes that the house was in ruins, and the blast of the explosion was so hot that it swept across my face.

The fat man pulled me, and his strength was so strong that it wasn't until he dragged me to the ground that I couldn't even react with rolling and crawling. Run, towards the back mountain, the three of us joined the team to escape.

The air-raid shelter was full of wailing people, those who were smashed by collapsed houses, burned by fire, and shocked, and the rest of the people here were old people and children, and the young and middle-aged people basically went to search the mountains, and if the whole village was there, the losses today would be immeasurable. From a certain point of view, Cha Wenbin's disappearance saved many people.

Yuan Xiaobai was bandaging those people, I was leaning against the fat man, I was thinking in my heart that I don't know what happened to him?

In the evening, someone came in, it was the team that searched the mountain and returned, and we all returned to the village one after another. A simple count showed that at least two-thirds of the houses were destroyed, eight people died on the spot, and about 20 were injured, all of them elderly and women, but fortunately there were no children.

In the middle of the village, there is a large pit more than five meters in diameter, and smoke is still rising from the pit, and a choking smell of burning is everywhere. At that time, the most valuable thing in the countryside was grain, and I don't know if God still had some favor, the warehouse where we were held was still intact, and the grain was there.

The people whose houses were destroyed were arranged in the warehouse, and the three of us educated youths went to Miao's house, and his family was still fine.

It's a pity that Uncle Qiu is gone, and when people pulled open his house, he and the black cat also followed him. When a militiaman tried to pull his bent body away, I heard a cat meow, it was a hungry barking kitten, only the size of a palm, when it broke free from Uncle Qiu's arms, it pounced straight on his mother, it used its little head to desperately arch the already cold female cat, and finally it found the mother's ** with great difficulty, sucking it in its mouth......

Faced with such a scene, I cried, Yuan Xiaobai also cried, I seemed to hear the fat man's sobbing, and many people cried. Some were pointing at the sky and cursing, and many more were running to the next collapsed house......

The kitten was gently picked up by Yuan Xiaobai, she gently pressed the kitten on her face, and the cat licked her tears with her tongue.

She said softly to the cat: "Don't be afraid, little thing, in the future, let me take care of you, okay?" ”
