Chapter 33 Useless——Dedicated to Gu Yuan's Daughter

Hearing the sound of "click" when the key drilled into the iron lock, she was terrified as if she had been shocked by an electric shock. She jumped up from the grass thatch she was sitting on, and the first signal she came out of her mind was, it's over!She stared fixedly at the wooden door of the cave dwelling being pushed open, the hazy moonlight poured in from the open cave door, and then two Red Army soldiers flashed in, shouting at her, telling her to get out. She leaned against the kiln wall with her hands behind her back, trying to find something on the wall that she could hold on to. There was not even a stick on the bare kiln wall.Although she was sure that they were taking her out to be shot or buried alive, she couldn't help asking: "What are you going out for? What are you taking me out for? I won't go..." The answer was that the captain wanted to talk to her.She doesn't believe it, and if she wants to talk about it, she will talk about it tomorrow.There were already more than a dozen people who were dragged out in the middle of the night and shot or buried alive in this way.

Two Red Army soldiers pulled her out with their hands.She yelled and yelled, yelling, she wanted to yell so much that the Red Army soldiers in the nearby caves knew that she had been shot tonight.With her hands tied behind her back and her mouth blocked by a piece of rag, she was dragged out of the cave. After leaving the cave, the two Red Army soldiers said nothing, one picked up the shovel from the ground, the other picked up the shovel from the ground, carried her on his shoulder, and led her forward.She has now further concluded that she will be buried alive.The shovels and shovels carried on their shoulders are not only the weapons to escort her, but also the tools for digging holes.When they arrived at the cave where she was imprisoned, they were already ready to leave.

They waved to the little soldier guarding the prison kiln, and the little soldier walked away from another side road with a gun on his back.She has known this little soldier guarding her since she was thrown into this prison in the middle of the night three days ago.He brought her a bowl of water or two buns.When she asked him something, he just shook his head and waved his hands, a timid light flashed in his eyes, as if he was afraid of being infected with the plague.He told her that seventeen or eight people had been imprisoned in this cave and another cave 50 meters away. That cave was not very innocent. The cave he was in charge of guarded had nine people imprisoned. The ninth, and the only female.It's always the night that locks in, and the night calls out, and never comes back after going out.The nine people, including her, were all from Xi'an, and it was immediately clear from their accents that there were no mountain people.She was convinced of a rumor in her heart: the Red Army soldiers who had defected to the guerrillas from Xi'an were inspected all together, and all those who had been inspected disappeared without a trace... She couldn't help looking at the man who disappeared in the moonlight. The little soldier glanced at him, thanking him for telling her about the situation, so that she could die clearly; she pinned her only hope on the disappearing figure, you must not sacrifice, live to victory, and marry her He told the people about the Red Army from Xi'an who had been censored and disappeared without a trace...

The moonlight is hazy.The loess mountains under the hazy moonlight lost their desolation and became charming in vain.The stars are shining, no barking dogs, no lights.The rolling bald mountains stretched into the darkness.She knew that the other side of the mountain was famous for burying the first ancestor of the Chinese nation, the Yellow Emperor.This side of the mountain has stretched from Shaanxi to the eastern part of Gansu, and it is now famous all over the world because there are active members of the Red Army here, descendants of the Yellow Emperor who were unwilling to be enslaved.This is the base of the Shaanxi-Gansu Red Army.Just because a Kuomintang agent came from Xi'an to sneak into the base area, the leaders of the "Left" faction wiped out all the Red Army soldiers who defected to the revolution from Xi'an.At this moment, the Central Red Army led by Mao Zedong had completed the Long March and entered northern Shaanxi.When she followed the two Red Army soldiers carrying shovels and shovels to death, she didn't know that this kind of suicide would stop tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Zhou Enlai angrily stopped the cruel and stupid "revolution" of the "left" faction. measure".

But she couldn't wait. She will go to the depths of the earth tonight. She is angry, she is not angry.She is sad, she is not sad.She regrets, she will not regret.She is in pain, she is not in pain.She wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry.She wanted to yell, but she couldn't yell.She wanted to scold, but she didn't know who to scold.She is desperate, she is not desperate.She is afraid, she is not afraid.She wants to live, she can't.She didn't want to die, she couldn't not die.She didn't deserve to die, she had to die if she didn't deserve to die... She just felt useless!

She risked her life and ran from Xi'an to this remote valley where there was no hunger, cold clothes, no medical treatment, and no medical treatment. The only mental preparation was to die in the worst case.She thought about dying in battle or being caught and executed by the enemy, but she never thought that she would be buried alive by her own people!Because she didn't have the slightest mental preparation, when she followed her comrade-in-arms who was about to bury her alive to the pit of death, now there was only a useless emotion left in her mind. She has never been cowardly, she has never been a person who can't bear the slightest bit of cowardice...

A magnanimous ancient plain.To the east of Guyuan, there is a big river, which enters the Qinling Mountains.More than 30 years after her death, archaeologists in Beijing discovered the remains of ape-man there.The west edge of the ancient plain is facing the vast and endless Weihe Plain. Standing on the edge of the plain, you can see the golden dome of the bell tower in the heart of Xi'an on a clear day.Twenty years after her death, workers for the construction of the first five-year plan dug up the "Banpo Ruins" here.To the north of Guyuan, there is still a river with beautiful scenery, enchanting the farewell people of thousands of dynasties with the willow color.Only on the south side is the majestic Qinling Mountains, if it is by the sea, it should be a peninsula.She was born on this ancient plain, near the east, in an old farmhouse in an old village, a family that was called a rich man when she was alive and a landlord for more than ten years after her death.

She has become the jewel in the palm of the rich man since she was born.The old rich man gave strict family education to her three elder brothers who were born before her, ranging from scolding to scolding, to slapping his palms with a ruler, never forgiving, and only favoring his only daughter.When she was five or six years old, the old rich man still couldn't help but hug her up, kiss her and bite her red cheeks, which made her howl and cry in pain, and anxiously pulled his thick beard and thin hair He didn't care about it, and if he held her up on his neck and ran around the yard, even her mother felt that she couldn't stand it.Her mother bound her feet with a white cloth more than ten feet long, which made her roll on the ground, but her mother still didn't let go.The old rich man came back, pushed his mother upside down, untied the foot wrap angrily, stuffed it under the stove and burned it, hugged her spicy and painful feet, rubbed them with his hands, and breathed them with hot air He said that whoever dares to wrap her precious daughter's feet in the future, he will cut off the hand of that person with a knife!Mom said, if you have big ugly feet, you won't be able to find your husband's family.The old rich man said that the sky is full of heaven, the sky is full of heaven, and it is sacred and cannot be changed!Not only because of his only daughter, the old rich man is a devout Christian, he does not believe in earth gods and believes in foreign gods. An American missionary did not choose remote places, and he stopped in ancient plains fifty years ago to preach, ban smoking, let go, and give charity.The old rich man took it personally, first abolishing male superiority and inferiority in his own courtyard, improving women's rights, and advocating natural feet.She was the first to enter the school run by the village.

The rich old man took his daughter by the hand and sent her to the village school. Farmers, men, women and children were crowded in the alleys of the village, watching how this woman walked into the world of boys - the village school, like watching a western scene.She jumped up and down, and walked into the school like that.With his majesty, the old rich man handed over his daughter to the stubborn, pedantic but timid and diligent old man, arranged for her study and remuneration, but ignored an urgent matter, that is, her daughter defecated and peed. The question, which led to a joke. The old gentleman sat in the school hall, and he didn't distinguish between get out of class time and class time, only going to school and leaving school.When the teacher is not teaching, the students are free to go to the latrine.She wanted to pee, so she ran out of the classroom to see the boys going in and out of the small hut, not knowing where she should go.Because there were no girls before, there was no need to divide men and women in the hut.She was in a hurry and couldn't hold back any longer. She saw a smaller hut in the other corner of the small courtyard, and no one was going in or out, so she ran over.As soon as he entered the door, he opened his belt and squatted down to pee.Unexpectedly, the old man was squatting inside, so he pulled up his pants and hurried away in fright.Seeing the old man's embarrassing expression and his flustered look, she laughed happily.People in the village expanded the matter, saying that the old man hurriedly put half of his shit in his crotch before he pulled it off... But she got an indecent nickname, crazy woman.

When the crazy woman grew up to fourteen or five years old, she memorized the antiques of "moderation" and "university" under the old gentleman's knees, especially when she practiced a good handwriting. After learning, his handwriting has even surpassed his level, so he should go to the school in the county, where his teacher sits.The old rich man is very proud of his daughter's talent and wisdom.During the Spring Festival, he called his daughter to the desk, ground the ink and cut the paper himself, handed a brush to his daughter, and asked her to write couplets on red paper and paste them on the door frames on both sides of the street gate.The old rich man holds a water pipe in his hand, and stands aside to appreciate and judge. His skeleton is like a willow, and his brushwork is like that of an Ou. Flying in a single stroke, there is really a masculine spirit that combines strength and softness.After the new year, he didn't listen to the old man who asked him to send his daughter to the old man who was sitting in the county seat, but he sent his daughter to the church middle school in Xi'an according to the guidance of the American priest...

She was about to turn over a beam, her mouth was blocked, and she couldn't breathe; her arms were bound, and she couldn't walk vigorously; her heart was suffocating and was beating urgently, dripping with sweat; The legs were like two pieces of wood that did not obey the mobilization of the will, the feet flickered, and finally fell before reaching the top of the slope beam.She fell down so straight, but she couldn't feel the pain, as if she was wrapped in a thick layer of cotton pads; her arms were bound numb by the ropes, and she couldn't feel the existence of her arms and hands anymore. This is probably what a bird with its wings cut off feels like.The piece of rotten cloth was stuffed in her mouth, and gradually hardened, so hard that it lost the texture of cloth and felt like stone or rusty iron. Later, she didn't even feel anything, and she couldn't feel the existence of her mouth.Her cheeks were also numb to the point of being unconscious, and she had no face.Her brain was numb too, so numb that only a tiny nerve ending was alive, allowing her to realize that she was alive.It would be best to dig a hole right here and bury her in it, or drag her up to the top of the beam and push her down the cliff.Her numb body and numb heart will not feel useless and painful. She was lying on the sloping beam, her eyes were closed, and she didn't have the strength to open them.Suddenly she was stabbed in the right arm, or a knife?The pain caused her to sit up suddenly, and then fell down, and her left arm also hurt for a while.But he didn't sit up again. Immediately afterwards, his arms seemed to be pricked by tens of thousands of needle points, and his cheek was also pricked once, and again, again and again, like countless needle points pricking up and down in turn.Acupuncture-like pain spread to the back, chest, abdomen, thighs, calves, and feet, like thousands of flames licking the whole body.She howled and rolled like a wild animal.Then everything disappeared, the needle prick was removed, and the tongue of fire flew away, leaving only a steady burning pain. She suddenly sat up, ah!There are arms, hands, mouths and cheeks.She glanced left and right, and there were two Red Army soldiers standing on both sides watching her, and she realized that they had untied the rope on her arm and pulled out the rotten cloth from her mouth. The result of the frantic rush of dead blood after it was freed.She turned her head to the side, and her heart, which had just recovered from the numb state, realized the meaning of that extremely heavy death, and said to the two little soldiers: "Do you two have to bury me alive?" "This is an order! An order from the superior!" "What if the order is wrong?" "impossible!" "Then you believe that I am a dog spy?" "That can't be wrong!" "How do you know you can't be wrong?" "Why did you come here from Xi'an? It's not that the party sent you here, and it's not like the two of us who rebelled when we couldn't bear the oppression! It's not that you don't have food and clothes, and you can study, so you came to this valley What a revolution! Foreign students..." She slumped and closed her eyes.She couldn't explain to them why she had defected to the base area.They may be poor children from a certain mountain in northern Shaanxi or Longdong. They had no food and clothing, and were bullied by bullies. In unbearable anger, they defected to the Red Army for revenge.Why did she come here?Can they believe her when she says it?She shook her head in pain, remembering the conversation between the anti-revolutionary team and her. This was the only conversation she had during the three days she was thrown into the prison cell, or rather a review.The anti-revolutionary cadre wearing myopia looked her up and down, his cold eyes shining coldly, and asked her to confess.She narrates a short journey into the revolution. "You come from a rich old family, don't you?" "yes." "You were first educated in feudalism and then baptized in Christianity. You are a talented woman who can write well. You are the jewel in the palm of the old rich man. Miss Kuo, you have transformed into a Communist and a Red Army soldier? Your tricks have become too clumsy and full of loopholes, and you still Keep cheating!" "This is my actual experience. If you ask me, I will tell you honestly." "Since the reactionary society dominated by this reactionary class can satisfy your enjoyment and provide you with various opportunities for education, why should you fight against the reactionary class to which you belong?" "I came into contact with progressive books in extracurricular reading..." "If one or two progressive books can influence a rich lady into a Red Army soldier, then wouldn't it be easier for us to throw away our guns and print progressive books to influence reactionary army and police agents!" "This……" "If this kind of statement is a wonderful fantasy, then it is more in line with the law and more reasonable to connect your family, the education and influence you have received with a reactionary class minion-the dog spy of the Kuomintang! I don't have time to look at you again An inexperienced spy method..." She was sent to prison again. She looked at the faces of the two little soldiers, and they were quite handsome faces.One is fatter and the other is thinner. The thinner one is more handsome than the fat one, especially under the moonlight.They must not be able to read, at most they could read a few words after they came to the Red Army, and they must not have touched the mountains of human knowledge libraries.Their motive for defecting to the Red Army was above all to survive.It will take some time for them to understand why a person like her who can survive should risk their lives in revolution with them who cannot survive, at least not something they can understand tonight.They firmly believe that she is a dog spy, so that although she is in pain, she cannot hate these two cute little comrades-in-arms.Even if she couldn't hate the stupid narrow-mindedness and ridiculous stubbornness of the cadre who interrogated her, she still felt that he was her respected leader, but he was confused by the spies from Xi'an who had mixed into the camp... The two warriors stood up, shouldered their tools again, shovel and shovel, and said, "Go—" She stood up and followed them up to the top of the beam.The beam is about to fall, and the ditch under the beam may be her burial place.She said, "Bound my hands and gag my mouth!" The two soldiers were stunned for a moment, and said, "You can't walk downhill with your hands tied! As long as you don't run around, you don't need to tie them up." She shouted: "No! I want you to bind your hands and gag your mouth as before. If you can't go on, I'll get out!" "Are you crazy?" "I want to be numb!" They looked at each other again, then took her by the arm and walked towards the back of Po Liang... She didn't get numb, she was wide awake.She felt useless again... The female teachers in the girls' middle school run by the church seemed to be cast from the same mold, with the same face and the same tone, and they all cursed the heresy of communism.The crazy girl couldn't hold back her madness at last: "Teacher, you better give me a book that promotes communism, and see what kind of bastard it is!" The teacher was shocked: "You want to die?" The more strange she felt, the more Mysterious, the more she tried to find such a book or newspaper... Sure enough, she became a fanatical follower and practitioner of communism.The person who lent her such a book to read later became her husband. They had a boy, and they fostered the son in the man's old home when they defected to the Red Army.He and she belong to the township party, and he is also the son of a rich man in Gu Yuanshang.He had a dark face, very strong and very handsome.He was in Zhongshan Middle School and was the leader of the student underground organization.She loved him passionately and madly.He had already sacrificed half a year ago, that black-faced man.I don't know if the anti-revolutionary team is still examining him? Three years ago, Dai Jitao, Minister of Education of the Kuomintang, came to Xi'an for inspection and wanted to give instructions to the student representatives.She got the training certificate and rushed to the Minyuan Auditorium.Minyuan Paradise is an entertainment place, chicken intestine alleys, interspersed in a variety of ways, and the intersections are full of small shops, snack shops, small teahouses, small tricks, and little whore yards. Here you can watch juggling storytelling, a cappella, and monkey performances. , You can also eat sweet, spicy, sour, meat, vegetarian, hot, cold, and various flavor meals. There are also high-end whores, low-end whores, and low-end whores who sleep with a piece of biscuit for all kinds of customers to choose from.Out of the best possible plan, the officials of Xi'an unexpectedly chose this inelegant place for entertainment and entertainment of the low-class citizens for Minister Dai to condescend to show his face. Minister Dai has both talent and eloquence, and explained from several theoretical and moral perspectives that the chairman's students should devote themselves to studying and resisting Japan. The government should manage the purpose.He didn't expect that among the audience were some Red Party students who deliberately undermined the chairman's purpose. They were here to put a brick under Minister Dai's chin, rub sand in his eyes, pour water into his ears, and splash urine on his face.Before I spoke a few words, notes were passed from bottom to top on the podium like arrows, and the person presiding over the meeting prevaricated and said that they would answer questions after the speech was finished.So the note was stopped, and someone stood up to ask questions, and the questions turned into chaotic questions: May I ask Minister Dai, how do students study when Japanese planes are about to fly into Tongguan?May I ask Mr. Minister, I don’t see you talking about the anti-Japanese war, but every sentence cannot be separated from the anti-communism. Is the Communist Party occupying more territory in my country or the Japanese invading our country?Is it urgent to suppress the Communist Party or expel the Japanese pirates?What did the Chairman do wrong?Minister Dai's face grew longer and longer, he stammered and faltered, and became exasperated, saying that the question raised by the students was exactly what the students said.At this moment, the auditorium roared with laughter, and a sharp cry resounded throughout the auditorium: "Shoot this little pirate's lackey!" Everyone was startled, and half of the brick flew over, hitting Dai Jitao on the forehead.Then there are flying stones, wine bottles, and firewood sticks.Minister Dai got under the table, climbed to the window, jumped out of the window, and fled.Minister Dai was still in shock, and only said that Xi'an, the ancient capital, was a holy land of all dynasties, a land of honesty and ceremonies. From the dirtiest corner of Xi'an, an astonishing joke spread to the whole city. The dignified Minister of Education was hit by a brick from a student in Minyuan, jumped out of the window and ran away!It was a girl who swung out the first brick and shouted and hit her!Legend has it that this girl is Yunyun, a sharpshooter of the Red Army who came from northern Shaanxi.Actually?She is the daughter of an old rich man in Guyuan, a student of a Christian school... She's totally exposed.She and her black husband handed over their newborn son to the child's grandmother to feed, and then defected to the Red Army guerrillas.They first disguised themselves as a pair of wealthy young men from the foreign market, left Xi'an, then dressed up as a pair of beggars begging for food and drink, and finally walked into the guerrilla base... A narrow river ditch between two mountain ridges.Turning over from the sloping beam and going down into the river ditch, they bound her hands and feet without saying a word, then turned around, chose a piece of wasteland at random, and dug a hole. She watched them wielding shovels and shovels to dig a grave for her, her eyes darkened, she almost fell down, she was nothing but a wimp. After they dug the pit, they came over, pulled her towards the pit, untied the ropes from her feet and hands, and stopped in front of the pit: "What else do you want to say?" She looked at the thin one, then at the fatter one, and said, "You two...call me...comrade?" "spy!" She trembled all over, and then fell into the upper pit, shouting like crazy: "You will understand eventually! Go back and send a message to the anti-revolutionary team for the glasses, he will regret it..." In 1950, when the first National Day of the People's Republic came, she was honored as a martyr.Her name was Zhang Jingwen, and she was only twenty-four years old when she died.
