Five

Chen Mohan accompanied Dou Yuquan back to the Little Red Mansion, and everyone's mood was heavy for a long time. Dou Yuquan buried his body in the sofa and didn't say a word for a long time. At this moment, Dou Yuquan really showed his old state, I don't know if it was due to the fatigue of the journey, or the grief at Zhang Pujing's memorial service, his complexion was very bad, and he sighed for a long time: "Bloody wind and bloody rain." After a lifetime of fighting, killing, and killing, the revolution has succeeded, and it is time to throw off his arms and do it, but those who have gone have left, those who have fallen have fallen, and they are old and old, and they are unbearable to look back on. ”

Chen Mohan said: "Deputy Chief of Staff Dou is too tired, take a break and recover your emotions." Three tables were opened at noon today, all of them were old comrades-in-arms of Bump Mountain, and the chief was afraid that there would be a fierce battle. ”

Dou Yuquan looked at Chen Mohan, owed his body, and said slowly: "With such an emotion, what kind of wine are you drinking?" ”

Chen Mohan said: "Those who came down from Bump Mountain, those who lived, those who did not fall, and those who did not run, are all here." Commander Liang said that he would dry his tears in the morning and dry the wine bottle at noon. This is the style of revolutionaries. ”

Dou Yuquan smiled faintly and said, "This guy will mobilize." He is not afraid that Zhang Pujing Jiuquan will scold him for being greedy and forgetful...... How much alcohol can Lao Liang drink now? ”

"You know, Commander Liang has a lot of money, and eight taels is no problem."

"Oh," Dou Yuquan sat upright, "This old Liang, the tiger is still strong." I'm going to try it against him today. However, I'm afraid it's not his opponent yet. ”

Chen Mohan's heart moved, there seemed to be some subtext in his words. Chen Mohan said: "The eight taels I am talking about are known as eight taels, which are false and scare others. I told the old chief that he was now three or four taels, his stomach was not good, and the doctor gave him a serious warning during the physical examination last month. ”

In fact, Chen Mohan also knew that Liang Bida also had a heart problem, but he couldn't talk nonsense about this, it belonged to the category of confidentiality.

Dou Yuquan looked at Chen Mohan again and said, "Then you have to pay attention, you have to supervise." Lao Liang is a capable person, you must protect it, and a few of you will join forces to see if you can withstand a Zhang Pujing. He's a few years younger than me, but he's over 50 to 60. ”

Chen Mohan said: "How can we have the courage of Political Commissar Zhang? Who would dare to snatch his glass? You tell him to pay attention to your body, don't smoke and drink less, and he scolds you, and he says who of us don't have this disease? Everybody has it. The liver, kidneys, and lungs, if you had listened to the doctor, you would have been frightened a long time ago. If you don't listen, you can't drink any wine, and you will use it for a bird. ”

Dou Yuquan said: "This old Liang always speaks amazingly. I have to take care of him, the hero doesn't mention the courage of the year. ”

After speaking, he changed the subject: "Are the lady and the child okay?" ”

Chen Mohan said: "It's all good. Thank you, old chief, for your concern. ”

Chen Mohan has always had a pimple in his heart that he wants to figure out, which is about Zhang Pujing. After everyone resumed work, some people said that Zhang Pujing was not crazy, nor did he die of myocardial infarction after "making a report", the problem was in the teacup in front of him, he was prepared, and the teacup contained ***. But this problem is still a folk romance until now, and today finally has a chance, Chen Mohan also wants to know a thing or two, so he said tentatively: "Old chief, Commander Liang has been talking about one thing, saying that Dou Yuquan is not simple, Lu Yao knows horsepower, and he will see people's hearts over time." In such a sinister environment, it is indeed a remarkable thing that Deputy Chief of Staff Dou dared to protect Political Commissar Zhang. ”

Dou Yuquan smiled, raised his hand and brushed his thinning hair behind his head: "If you had that condition, wouldn't you use it?" What's the big deal? It's human nature. If it were Liang Bida, he might have done better than me. ”

Chen Mohan said: "Political Commissar Zhang's last days were with the old chief, and the old chief took care of the aftermath, you must know...... We have always wondered, is Commissar Zhang really crazy? ”

Dou Yuquan was stunned for a moment, glanced at Chen Mohan, turned his face again, picked up a cigarette from the table, but did not light it, put it in front of him to play, and said for a long time: "Brother Mohan, you say, is there any obvious boundary between being crazy and not being crazy?" ”

Chen Mohan was speechless for a while, and after thinking about it, he said: "The difference should still be very clear, whether the thinking is normal or not, whether the speech and behavior are normal or not, is the boundary." ”

So, what is normal and what is not? My experience is that there is no absolute boundary between the two. It's normal in this environment, it's abnormal in that environment, it's normal at this time, and it may be abnormal during that time. It's normal for us to sit here today and talk about it, but it's not normal for us to sit in that place tomorrow and talk about it. In this sense, we are all insane. ”

Chen Mohan was stunned, he felt that Dou Yuquan was avoiding something, going around in circles.

"What if you look at it from a medical point of view?"

Dou Yuquan said categorically: "The same. ”

Chen Mohan moved his mouth and swallowed the words again.

Dou Yuquan said: "Hitler is a madman when he started the war, and he is not a madman if he leads the anti-fascist war, but after so-and-so won the victory in the anti-fascist struggle all over the world, he carried out the Great Purge and Massacre. Back then, millions of Red Guards flocked to Tiananmen Square, and I don't say that these millions of people were crazy, but at that moment they were indeed crazy. As soon as the word "anti-rightist" is mentioned, hundreds of millions of people across the country are anti-rightist, and some of them do not even know what the rightists are, and they are vigorously opposing it. As soon as it is said that '*****' is engaged, hundreds of millions of workers, peasants, and soldiers have emerged throughout the country, and the rebels have spread all over the country, and the mountains and rivers of the motherland have become red in the north and south. Can you say that this is just one person or a few people, dozens or hundreds of people are crazy? No. It's like taking medicine, if you are sick or not, you will take a medicine with that disease, do you think this is a madman? My opinion is that there are two kinds of madmen, one is the normal madman, these are the madmen who live in mental hospitals or run around in the streets. There is also a kind of abnormal madman, that is, people like you and me, who can have meetings or chat here. Okay, I can't say any more, I can see from your expression, you're thinking, you're facing a crazy person too, aren't you? That's right, it's true that I'm looking at the problem this way, and it's also a psychotic symptom. ”

Chen Mohan was stunned, he didn't expect Dou Yuquan to make such a bizarre statement. But one thing he made clear, as to whether Zhang Pujing was really crazy or fake crazy, from Dou Yuquan's mouth, he couldn't imagine getting a word.

When he left the Little Red Mansion, Chen Mohan was still worried, looking at the state of Deputy Chief of Staff Dou, there shouldn't be any problems at today's noon reception, right?

But it soon turned out that he was overly worried.
