196. Kindness does not necessarily lead to good rewards
In the gorgeous sunset, a few stars have been hung in the clear sky, the spring breeze is blowing slowly, and the smell of grass is mixed with the coolness brought by the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
The white sheep graze leisurely among the meadows, and the yaks snort and look at the sunset on the horizon.
On the tall horse, Chen Li'an waved the horsewhip gently, and Li Dabai, who was sitting in front, looked up and felt the evening breeze, enjoying this moment very much, like the peace of being isolated from the world.
Chen Li'an watched the sunset about to fall into the valley, and began to increase his speed, shouting the slogan that Dorjee had taught him, driving away the sheep and cattle.
Grazing is now also Chen Li'an's part-time job after filming, anyway, he comes out to play, and learning how to herd by the way can also make him more suitable for the role.
Li Dabai was already able to sit firmly on horseback at this time, leaning slightly on Chen Li'an's chest, listening to his loud shout, watching the sheep obediently gather together under Chen Li'an's drive, moving slowly in the direction of home.
When Li Dabai was immersed in this moment, Chen Li'an's melodious singing voice suddenly came to his ears.
In that far away place there was a good girl, and people walked past her tent and looked back with longing
I would like to wander in the grassland and herd sheep for her.
I would like to be a lamb and follow her, and I would like her to take a leather whip and keep hitting me lightly every day
Li Dabai was feeling an indescribable emotion in her heart at the moment, and the sweet panic occupied the whole heart, turning her head to look at Chen Li'an's bright black eyes, she knew that she was completely in love with this man at this moment.
The heartbeat in a long life is only a moment, but it is enough to be unforgettable.
Before night completely fell, Chen Li'an drove the cattle and sheep back, and after jumping off the horse vigorously, he reached out to catch Li Dabai who was about to jump down, and put her firmly on the ground.
Li Dabai looked at Chen Li'an's dark face, and felt a primitive wildness in his body, and the strong male aura made her a little infatuated.
On the small building not far behind them, Zhou Gongzi and Ning Jing stood in front of the balcony drinking tea, quietly watching this scene.
"You're not angry?" Ning Jing took a sip of the crisp tea, looked at Zhou Gongzi with an indifferent expression and asked.
Zhou Gongzi put the cup on the railing and said nonchalantly: "There's nothing to be angry about, just come back at night." β
Ning Jing was stunned, glanced at Zhou Gongzi's chest and said, "You are open-minded."
What should I do if I don't open up, it's already good to be able to tighten Chen Li'an's belt, if you want to lock his heart, don't fantasize.
After a while, Chen Li'an ran upstairs and saw Zhou Gongzi and Ning Jing drinking tea together, so he also leaned over and picked up Zhou Gongzi's teacup and took a sip.
"Who rushed it? Tastes good. Chen Li'an put down the cup and said.
Zhou Gongzi stretched out his hand and wiped the corner of Chen Li'an's mouth, and said with a smile: "I learned from it, you like to make you another cup in the evening." β
Chen Li'an nodded, not noticing that Li Dabai, who came up with him, silently returned to his room with his mouth shut.
Looking at Chen Li'an and Zhou Gongzi, who were interacting sweetly, Ning Jing felt that the tea in her hand was not fragrant at all, so she took the cup and left, go back to bed early, otherwise she would be noisy and unable to fall asleep.
At night, Li Dabai lay under the quilt and silently looked at the ceiling, and the afternoon picture would always come to her mind.
That sweet feeling is always accompanied by a hint of bitterness after the aftertaste, Li Dabai silently turned over and sighed silently in the dark.
Zhou Gongzi in the other room is competing with a pile of newspapers at this time, and the ingenious Xue'er will fold the newspapers into a kite in tomorrow's scene, but Zhou Gongzi will not.
Chen Li'an looked at the waste newspaper on the ground and said, "The props teacher will help you fold it, you just need to learn about it." β
"I think it's fun, just practice." Zhou Gongzi looked up at him and said with a smile: "Maybe I can also make kites for my children in the future." β
Chen Li'an suspected that Zhou Gongzi was ordering himself, but thinking that her personality was not like liking children, he didn't take it to heart.
In the afternoon of the next day, Cher in red by the river on the prairie sat on the grass and skillfully folded the newspaper brought by Jones into a kite, and Quack looked at her with adoration.
It's just that the content of the newspaper makes people's hearts heavy, and the photos of the Guolian army invading Jincheng and burning and looting are so eye-catching. (Intentional typo...) Don't spray. οΌ
Xue'er's hands are very ingenious and pure, looking at the foreigner in military uniform in the newspaper, she doesn't know what is written, she just wants to make a kite for Quack.
Sanger and Jones stood by with strings wrapped around their hands, waiting for Cher to fold the kite.
Jones beckoned Cher to fly with the kite that Cher had folded, and the two of them laughed happily.
Sanger was lying on the grass looking at the sky, and Cher sat next to her and looked at the flowered Quack, with a happy smile on her face.
Sanger turned his head to look at Cher's side face, and a smile appeared on his rugged face, he liked this woman, but he didn't dare to express his love.
A few years after Gaga's mother died, Sanger didn't know how to talk to Gaga, whether Cher would accept her, and whether Cher would think that she was holding her back
Cher likes life here, simple and peaceful, there will be no ruthless father to push herself to sacrifice, everything is so pure, and there are people she likes.
Cher's and Sanger's eyes collided slightly, and after a brief touch, they parted with shame.
Such a picture of happiness is particularly moving, everything is so innocent, as if it is the most beautiful thing in the world.
A camera not far away recorded this scene in its entirety, and everyone in the crew seemed to forget that they were filming an anti-Japanese war movie at this moment.
How can such a beautiful scene be connected with the cruelty of war?
Soon Feng Xiaoning stopped, packed up his things and prepared to transfer, Zhou Gongzi and Chen Li'an walked side by side, and said with some melancholy: "The more beautiful things are, the more cruel they are, and I don't know how to play the later scenes." β
Chen Li'an bit a piece of grass in his mouth, the grass in his mouth was a little astringent and sweet, looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance and said: "Only a strong contrast will make people unforgettable, that period of history itself is cruel, we just restore it in the lens, and even one thousandth of its cruelty cannot be reached." β
The first half of the whole movie is innocent and beautiful, and the filming is also very fast, after the transition, Chen Li'an and Ning Jing ushered in the first rivalry in this movie.
Danzhu, who was dressed in a white dress, looked at Sange on his horse and said, "Come hunt with me tomorrow." β
Danju is the daughter of the head man and a noble lady, and Sanger has no way to refuse such an order.
The next day Sanger came to the hunting grounds, but while everyone was hunting, Sanger didn't fire a shot.
Danzhu looked at this taciturn man, her heart was full of curiosity, she knew that Sanger was a warrior, no worse than those noble sons, or even much stronger.
"Why don't you hunt?"
Sanger shook his head, looked at the shotgun in his hand and said, "I don't kill except wild wolves." β
Such words caused ridicule from the surroundings, and Danju also laughed, but instead of looking down on Sange, he recognized his character even more.
It's just that her appreciation doesn't make Sanger feel the slightest temptation, and the Xue'er in his heart, even if Danzhu is the daughter of the headman, can't let Sanger take a second look.
But soon a lone wolf appeared on the grassland, and everyone looked at Sanger to see if his marksmanship and bravery were only in his mouth.
Sanger held his shotgun and watched as the unthreatening wolf didn't shoot, and finally just watched it go into the depths of the prairie.
Don't kill only the wild wolf, but now even the wild wolf that is not a threat is not killed, Sanger's behavior is not cowardice or boasting in Danzhu's eyes, but a kind of tolerance and kindness.
After performing this paragraph, Chen Li'an put down the shotgun in his hand and couldn't help but think about whether Sanger's behavior was good or not, and the colonel saved by Sanger in the movie was a wolf.
Although he was not a threat at the time, he later brought killing and war to the land.
From the bottom of Chen Li'an's heart, he does not approve of such behavior, but from the perspective of the character Sanger, his choice does not seem to be wrong.
From God's point of view, Chen Li'an naturally thinks that Sange's kindness is stupid, and your kindness and help will not be rewarded, but will only make those enemies look down on you even more, and then raise their rifles against you.
It's as if the Gallic chicken's help to the illegal immigrants of Brother Ni has been rewarded is simply wonderful, and blind kindness is useless.
Not only Gallic chickens, but also many places have the same ending, in the thousands of years of human history, such things have happened one after another, but everyone will be naΓ―ve to think that their kindness will be rewarded beautifully.
Kindness will be rewarded, but only if it is to be kind to your friends and not to your enemies.
Soon Sanger was "rewarded" for his kindness, and the colonel returned with the army.
He went to meet his friend with Hada in his hand, but the colonel, who was on horseback, looked at him, silently pointed his rifle at him, and used the bullet to tell Sanger that he was not a friend but an enemy.
All the people who came with Sanger were killed by the enemy's bullets, and Sanger watched in disbelief, at the cruel and cold-blooded colonel on the horse, at Jones, who was standing with the colonel, and also broke down and shouted.
The war began, and kindness could not drive away the slopers, but goodness would be used by the sourers.
After the war scene began, the whole crew was also busy, no longer as peaceful as before, and all the people were in a depressed state of high-intensity work.
It seems that everyone wants to finish filming this scene quickly, and they can't bear to see such a beautiful thing destroyed.
Chen Li'an also gradually became silent, Jones and the colonel would always hide in between shooting, as if they felt faceless.
During the filming, Chen Li'an looked at them with hostility and hatred in their eyes after entering the play, although they knew that it was fake, but they still couldn't help but substitute it in their hearts.
The war scene changed a lot of scenes, and when Chen Li'an and Jones came to the previous temple again, the colonel and Jones were silent.
In this scene, the colonel wants to tear down the murals in the temple and take them away, bringing such magnificent art to a more civilized society.
Jones strongly objected, but he was a soldier who could only obey commands, and he could not understand why he should impose his civilization on someone else's homeland.
After the filming of this scene, Jones took the initiative to find Chen Li'an and sat in front of him and said: "War is the plundering of civilization, I thought of those cultural relics that were brought back to Western museums, and suddenly felt ridiculous. β
Chen Li'an looked at Jones's appearance, and couldn't help but untie the wine bag with a two-pot head on his waist and handed it to him and said: "Those are already history, and no one can snatch anything from us now, but other places are still being robbed, like falling into a strange circle of history." β
Jones took a sip of wine, his face flushed from the spicy spicy taste of the second pot, and he was silent for a long, long time.
The filming is still going on, and Chen Li'an and Zhou Gongzi are about to finish.
Sanger and Cher died in the war, but in the end, Sanger went against his faith and killed.
On the city walls, two people poured in front of powder kegs filled with explosives, and the ground was full of gasoline.
The Colonel came to them and tried to convince Sanger to surrender, but Sanger took the lighter that the Colonel had given him out of his pocket.
It was time to return the enemy's gift to him, and the lighter was thrown by Sanger, instantly igniting a raging fire.
In the midst of the flames, Sanger hugged Cher tightly, watching as the flames and explosions took away the lives of the pourers.
Having lost his father, Quack silently led them at Jones's behest, towards the most dangerous swamp in the prairie.
At the end of the movie, Quack and his grandmother stand together looking at the jackal stuck in the swamp and looking at Jones with a gun pointed at him.
Jones looked at the young Quack, and his heart was full of pain, on one side of his comrades-in-arms and on the other his friends.
Jones struggled for a long time, put down the gun in his hand, and staggered away.
The movie is finished, and everyone's faces are smiling again, but this time the smile is heavy, as if the cruel scene of the day is still surrounding in front of their eyes.
The bonfire in the courtyard was blazing, the flames seemed to be like the flames of war, and the sonic boom of firewood rang out from time to time, always reminiscent of gunshots.
The aroma of the food also loses its charm at this moment.
Feng Xiaoning didn't have as many ideas as before at this time, there would be no real shooting if there was no real shooting in the avalanche, compared with those later scenes, an avalanche had no effect in the movie, it would not add luster to the movie and would not make the theme thicker.
Feng Xiaoning looked at everyone's silence, stood up and said to them: "The movie is finished, everyone should be happy, remember history but life must go on, come, let's have a drink together!" Thank you to the soldiers who died in history! β
Feng Xiaoning's words cut through the silence in the night, and everyone looked at him, and then raised the cup in their hands.
In the crisp sound of the wine glasses colliding, the atmosphere seemed to become warm, and Dorjee sat in the corner with Quack in his arms and sang a melodious song.
Dorjee's wife smiled and brought out the mare's milk wine, and then sang along with Dorjee's singing with the girls of the Z tribe.
Chen Li'an looked at the second pot head with only half a bottle left in his hand and smiled, and then pulled Zhou Gongzi and Li Dabai to dance around the bonfire together.
Ning Jing sat in the distance, watched them dance, and took Chen Li'an's unfinished second pot head.
took a sip of wine, and hummed softly along with Dorjee's singing.
On such a night, no one seems to care about the little things of love between men and women, and just wants to dance happily and forget about the cruelty and sadness.
Singing and wine, dancing and food are the melody of the evening.
Chen Li'an took a drink with everyone with a bowl, and after staggering to Ning Jing with a red face and sitting down, he patted her shoulder vigorously and said, "Thank you." β
Ning Jing was a little hurt by Chen Li'an, how could her hands be the same as an iron plate, but looking at Chen Li'an, who was dizzy, she could only sigh helplessly.
Chen Li'an poured himself a glass of mare's milk wine and touched the two-pot bottle in Ning Jing's hand and said, "A glass to you!" Thank you."
"Thank you!" Ning Jing looked at Chen Li'an, who was unconscious but very serious, and couldn't help but say: "I'm just helping to build a line, and I don't have the face to thank me like this." β
"If you really want to thank you" Ning Jing muttered in a low voice, Chen Li'an put his arm around her shoulders and asked inaudibly, "What did you say?" I didn't hear clearly."
Ning Jing said angrily: "It's nothing, drink your bar!" β
"Oh" Chen Li'an finished the wine in the bowl and poured it on the table with a clatter.
Ning Jing looked at the drunk and unconscious Chen Li'an, then looked up at Zhou Gongzi and Li Dabai, who were still dancing, and muttered in a low voice: "I can sleep well tonight, um. Then go to bed early."
