"I'll go, there's too many of them, right?"

Several educated youths were shocked when they saw the scene of a movie in the countryside for the first time.

"Normally, there are almost no other entertainment activities in the countryside except watching movies." Wang Manyin understands this very well and explains.

At this moment, the projectionist is adjusting the lens next to the machine. Some naughty broken babies took the opportunity to stretch out their little hands and change their hands on the screen against the beam, causing scolding.

Seeing that the viewing positions in front of him were all occupied, Wang Manyin thought that there might be no one on the back of the screen, so he took the orchid and changed the position again.

I never thought that the reverse side of the screen was also black and full of human heads.

Yes, the two of them stopped moving.

There are also people from other villages who are constantly rushing here, and after grinding for a while, it is estimated that there is no place on the opposite side.

They didn't wait too long, and the projectionist's voice sounded through the loudspeaker: "Ladies and gentlemen of the Shibi Festival Commune, tonight is a running film, and there will be two communes, and there may be a pause in between, please bear with me......."

This is also a basic operation.

Nowadays, film is very scarce, and often a film has to be played several times in the evening, which is shown in different villages.

Therefore, the order must be planned, for example, in the village of Shibijie first show movie A, the other village shows movie B, and when the film is finished, immediately arrange for someone to send it to another village for exchange.

Now there are no cars or motorcycles, so we can only rely on people and bicycles to hand them over. With a slight delay in the middle, there will be a disconnect in the showtime.

After the projectionist finished explaining, Zhou Wende, the village secretary of Shibijie Village, picked up the microphone again and began to speak.

This man spoke in a rambling manner, and he should have read it to a manuscript. He first talked about the achievements of the village in the past year, and then expressed his determination.

Wang Manyin felt that the other party was very similar to the captain of the first team in Jar Village, and he should like to show off in public. I was reluctant to put down the microphone when I picked up the microphone, and I talked a lot, and I was stunned that there was no point.

But now it's not a meeting, and the people who come to see the movie aren't used to him. Let Zhou Wende talk loudly above, and everyone will talk about their own things below.

"The above is my personal summary of the work of Shibijie Village last year......

Hearing this, Wang Manyin thought that the other party was finally done with verbosity.

As a result, Zhou Wende changed his words: "Next, I will introduce to you the next work plan and focus of Shibijie Village in four aspects. First of all......

I'll go, Wang Manyin is completely speechless: There are four aspects to talk about? This man is really addicted to talking.

didn't wait for Zhou Wende to finish the first point, and something suddenly happened in the venue. In the crowd, I don't know who threw out a ginger stone and smashed it directly into the movie screen.

The sound of the pass startled everyone.

"Who, whoever did it, come on, get him out of here!" Zhou Wende was suddenly annoyed and angry. Half a meter more wrong, the ginger stone smashed into his head.

After receiving the order, several young people in charge of watching the scene in the Shibi Festival had no choice but to look for it. It's a pity that the black pressure is full of heads, where can they find it.

But there were constant shouts from the crowd: "Hurry down, or you will be thrown away!"

"Go down, we're going to watch a movie!!"

Listening to the accent, you can know that it is the educated youths who are coaxing, and ordinary farmers are not so bold. ….

Only then did Zhou Wende know that he had provoked the anger of the public, and he immediately didn't dare to continue reading according to the script, so he handed over the microphone.

The projectionist was impatient, took the microphone and immediately announced: "Tonight the movie officially starts, first play an additional screening, please enjoy."

The so-called additional film is a short film that is shown before and after the main film. The content is generally documentaries, news, or popular science knowledge that reflect the economic and cultural construction.

Even so, people still watch it with relish. Especially when it comes to the hot shots, the people watching the movie keep cheering.

After a set of procedures was completed, it really began to enter the feature film - "Southern Expedition and Northern War".

This is also an old film, which has endured since it was filmed in the fifties.

Wang Manyin only looked at the beginning, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

is still the same sentence, he is used to seeing the movie entertainment storm of later generations, and he always feels that the performances of these actors on the screen are a bit patterned.

But seeing Orchid's eyes glued to the screen, he couldn't leave.

As the film gets to the point, the projectionist begins to narrate in the original Loess Plateau dialect.

"Everyone, pay attention, this character is Camp Commander Gao......

"This is the valiant warriors about to seize the Sky Ridge......

"A general assault on Phoenix Mountain will be launched soon......

Such detailed spoilers, if placed in the afterlife, will definitely be beaten.

However, in this era, it is also a normal operation. Because many farmers can't understand Mandarin and can't understand some of the plots, this requires a projectionist to explain.

But slowly, Wang Manyin also threw himself into it.

I was seeing the war scene when I suddenly felt someone pulling on my clothes.

"Uncle Manyin!"

Turning his head, he saw Mao Dan standing behind him, followed by Wang Junxiang's eldest son Donkey Dan and Wang Yanqiang's family.

"What's the matter, you three broken babies don't want to watch good movies, what are you doing running around, don't wait until you can't find an adult." Wang Manyin hurriedly advised.

There are at least one or two thousand people in the entire wheat field, and if you are not careful, you will run away.

"It's okay, we know where the adults are. Brother Man Yin, I heard my dad say that the bullet casings in the movie are pure copper?" Wang Laixi asked curiously.

"Your dad is right, of course it's made of pure copper,"

"Isn't that shell case also pure copper, and it's worth a lot of money?" The other party followed and asked.

Wang Manyin didn't know how the three broken babies could ask strange questions, so he nodded and said, "Such a large shell shell can weigh at least eight or nine catties, and it is made of good copper, which can be sold for several yuan." What are you asking for?"

"Got it, got it," the three broken babies didn't answer the question at all, and after glancing at each other, they squeezed into the crowd and disappeared.

Wang Manyin didn't care either, and continued to turn his head to watch the movie.

"Zhao Yumin led the people to cut the fuse of the explosives, successfully saved the dam, and also ensured the safety of the lives and property of the people downstream, and completely smashed the enemy's conspiracy......

With the narrator's commentary, the whole movie ends.

It didn't take too long, and the second film began to play, which was still a war movie......

"This is the end of the movie tonight......" accompanied by the sound of the projectionist, the whole wheat field became chaotic, and the voices of adults calling for their children could be heard from time to time. ….

Wang Manyin and Orchid squeezed out of the wheat field with the crowd, and soon joined up with a few people from the Jar Village, taking advantage of the starlight to embark on their way home.

Along the way, everyone still seemed very energetic and talked about the plot of the movie with relish.

Spring nights are thick.

The stars above their heads splashed with clear light, and the sound of frogs chirping in the Dongla River.

Such a scene made Wang Manyin feel extremely warm and nostalgic.

***

It was not early to get home, and the two of them did not toss, and went to bed after a hasty wash.

Wang Manyin was about to fall asleep in a daze, but was awakened by the sound of rhubarb, and then heard someone outside the cave shouting his name.

He hurriedly put on cotton pants and opened the kiln door with a cotton jacket: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"Full silver, hurry up and bring the rhubarb to find someone...... Mao Dan, Donkey Dan, and my family came to Xi, the three of them couldn't be found, they should have been lost at the end of the movie." Wang Yanqiang explained urgently.

"What, you didn't find the child and came back on your own?" Wang Manyin asked speechlessly, I really don't know what to say.

"Can I not look for it, I asked other people, and said that the three broken babies were together, so I thought I had gone back with the villagers. Who knew that after arriving home for such a long time, I didn't see anyone at all, so I panicked. This is the clothes that my family has come to rejoice......

After Wang Yanqiang explained, he hurriedly took out his children's clothes.

Over there, Wang Qiusheng and Wang Fuchang also took out their clothes one after another. After a few times

After the incident, they all knew that Rhubarb was very good at finding people and things.

All three adults made the same mistake and thought that the child had gone with someone else.

Wang Manyin also said with some regret: "I saw them when I was watching the movie, and I said a few words to a few children, and then they left, saying that they were going back to find adults. If I had known that, I should have kept them with me."

In these years, although I didn't steal the child, I was afraid of encountering other accidents.

After smelling his clothes, Rhubarb ran wildly along the dirt road in the direction of the Stone Festival, and a group of people followed closely behind with angry wind lanterns.

As soon as I was halfway there, I saw a light shining from the opposite side, mixed with the sound of discussion.

......At this time, Rhubarb also barked.

"Who's up ahead?" I'm Wang Lianshun from Jar Village," Wang Lianshun shouted at the top of his voice.

"Lian Shun, I'm the third child in Shibijie Village, have you lost the children in your village? I've sent it back to you." There was also a resounding response from the other side.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

When the three adults saw their children, they were angry and beat them up.

In the middle of the night, they were terrified.

"These three broken babies are also bold, and they were almost arrested as bad guys......

After listening to the third child's story, everyone finally knew why they didn't go back to the village.

It turned out that several broken babies saw that the war in the movie was full of bullets and shell shells, and they immediately moved their minds.

After discussing with each other, they secretly hid in a cave next to the wheat field after the movie ended.

After the adults left, a few guys quietly appeared, hoping to find some shell casings and bullets to sell for money under the screen, which alarmed the patrolling militia.

Wang Manyin couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, and finally knew why they would ask him about the shells.

"Alright, just find someone, stop fighting." Wang Lianshun stopped the actions of the three adults, and after repeatedly thanking the people of Shibijie Village, he returned with the team.

At the entrance of the village, there are still many people looking.

They were also relieved to hear that they had found the children.

However, Wang Junxiang's mother-in-law stared at the crowd a few times, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle Yanqiang, Junxiang didn't come back with you?"

"Junxiang, I didn't see anyone, who of you saw Junxiang just now?" Wang Yanqiang asked suspiciously.

Everyone shook their heads...... Only then did I remember that I didn't seem to see Wang Junxiang when I was looking for the child just now.

"Nothing will happen to Junxiang, right?" The aunt began to cry again.

"What can happen, a big living person in his twenties, maybe he hasn't come back from looking for his child."

"It shouldn't be, what the third child of Shibijie Village said just now, they made a big noise. Even if Junxiang is looking for a child, he should have heard it." Wang Lianshun shook his head and retorted.

Wang Manyin felt that the situation in front of him was very familiar, but he didn't dare to say it.
