Shanghai opened a new situation.The Chinese border and the foreign concession seemed to be two countries, and there were all kinds of troubles in crossing the barbed wire fence like a national border; sometimes you couldn't get through, and those armed foreigners didn't give you any reason.In the so-called "Huajie", it is full of people who are almost crazy about the trend of the times, armed, blue shirts, students dressed up, women with hair cut, no matter which road you can always see. large group.The most interesting ones are the workers who have won the battle against the remnants of the warlords.They carried all the trophies on their bodies, some with three guns crossed on their backs, and some with red-tasseled broadswords hanging on their waists (they were brought from the so-called broadsword team, there were many revolutionaries' necks, and they had tasted this kind The taste of the edge of a big knife), some raised their shoulders and carried a mobile phone gun, and some wore a belt for hanging a bayonet (this is the most frugal); those weapons were set off by the various costumes of those people , I feel that there is an atmosphere completely different from ordinary troops.Even the one wearing only a bayonet belt has a very honorable look on his face, always speaks loudly, and walks extraordinarily briskly.

Flags were flying everywhere, and banners covered almost all the walls.Crowds passed by every now and then, shouting and singing, going to a meeting of the trade or some sort of gala.All business is at a temporary standstill.This is like a fire that has just been extinguished, and everyone's shaking hearts and souls cannot be settled immediately, so they put aside the business in hand, but recall the panic at that time and predict the future recovery.At this time, Shanghainese think like this, all the past has passed away like dissipated smoke; newcomers from now on, wait for it to manifest slowly.Of course, hope and doubt, joy and resistance are mixed in it; however, everything before has passed, and this concept is the same in everyone's heart.

Ni Huanzhi didn't get enough sleep for several days and had a comfortable meal. Many things came up one after another, and he had to solve them one by one, deal with them, and show his new abilities. Although he didn't want to participate in other things, He only wants to do his best in education, but he has to attend all kinds of meetings, which is enough for him to be busy.He came out of one meeting and joined another meeting with a plan for a rural teacher that he had sketched out several days ago, but he never had the opportunity to present his plan. As for education, it's not that I don't pay any attention to it; but what I'm busy with is taking over this school and checking that school.In the past, most of the principals who acted as directors were listed in the school list at this time. They were either lurking in places in the concession, or they had already traveled elsewhere; there were only a few teachers left in the school or Clerks and the like have no other hand than holding school offerings in both hands; so there is no difficulty in receiving and checking.Then there are measures such as appointing a principal (the one who uses the name of the committee is the chairman of the committee) and appointing staff, which are almost the same steps as political changes.

That night, Huanzhi went back to school, happy to catch Wang Leshan and walk with him.Wang Leshan was even more busy than Huanzhi, and it was almost impossible for anyone to have a calm conversation with him; at this moment, he actually had a period of time to walk with him, and he could talk about his recent impressions, which made Huanzhi very gratified.It was very late at night, and the only sound of the two of them's footsteps was on the silent street; the street lamps that gradually became brighter shone on them, and the shadows drawn on the ground gradually became shorter and longer, sometimes in front, and sometimes in front of them. Later, it changes moment by moment.At bridgeheads or crossroads, where there were originally police posts, there are now workers with trophies standing, two by one, silently and solemnly, carrying out their new important and interesting duties.

"Leshan, I want to talk to you about something, but I haven't had the chance to talk to you for a few days, so I have to hold it in my throat," Huanzhi began hesitatingly, his voice scattered in the space, gloomy. "Ha, no chance," Leshan said with a smile. "According to the situation these days, we want to gather a few friends to have a chat. It seems that there will never be a chance. I don't have time to adjust my medicine. This body is also cheap. It doesn't sleep like this, and the night is rare. Sleep, use it excessively, and don't give it medicine, but I don't feel anything, it's not worse than before."

"It's because you've put all your energy into it and you're overexcited. But the body is made of flesh and blood after all, and you have to take good care of it." Huanzhi said this, thinking of the current urgent need and scarcity of talents, and Leshan's second-stage lung disease was filled with the meaning of cherishing and cherishing, so he took a deep look at Leshan's still short and dainty figure. "What are you going to talk to me about?" Le Shan put aside the discussion about the body.He felt a little remorseful, and when he accidentally mentioned his body, it elicited a consoling tone like an old lady from Huanzhi.He did not want to be comforted like this.He thinks that a person's body is not worth thinking about. When to die and when to destroy, let it go; whoever takes special care of his body must have too much time to spend.

"I feel that the realm of reality is different from the realm of imagination, and it is far from it. This is what I have been thinking about all the time these days, and I want to tell you." Huanzhi confided his meaning briefly, with a calm voice And sincere. "Have you ever dreamed of such a beautiful and solemn state?" Le Shan replied, the voice of an old teacher facing a naive primary school student. "Of course!" Huanzhi agreed with a little surprise, which contained "don't you?" "I never thought about it!" Le Shan seemed to have heard Huanzhi's unspoken question. "I know that people are always people. If this group of people can't do well, another group of people will suddenly get better. This is a delusion that has forgotten history. Those who have this delusion have their due rewards, which is the depression of disappointment. .Could it be that you are already in the depression of disappointment?"

"No, I'm not disappointed!" Huanzhi, whose self-confidence and firmness had improved compared to before, and who was satisfied with what he had seen recently, of course firmly denied it when he heard the word disappointment. "But I think we should be better than the status quo, we should turn the wheel of history, make it turn faster than usual." At the same time he pushed into the space with his right hand. "That's right. All we can do is push the wheel of history and make it turn faster than usual. Let's work hard!" Le Shan said the last sentence, no longer in a cold tone, but also firmly on his feet little bit.

"It's like dealing with education. I think we should take a better approach. The previous education was wrong and meaningless, which is good; but we have to give students the right and meaningful education. Improve homework and focus on training Ah, and other things, are the first subjects to be investigated." "I think school work should pay special attention to social science and biological anthropology, so it is meaningful," Leshan said in a monologue, and then added, "Ah, I interrupted you. Not to mention mine Meaning, go ahead." "Let's not discuss this at all now," Huanzhi said, following his own line of thought, seemingly not hearing Leshan's interjection. "The students stopped classes, and they didn't plan when to start school for them, but they just took over this school and took over that school, just like a corrupt chief who sent his men to take over the Lika tax bureau as soon as he took office. What is the solution?"

"Sir, you should know that this is also a necessary procedure." "It's a necessary procedure, of course I know. But after going through the procedures, isn't there a policy that has been discussed in detail once? Alas, there are still some ugly phenomena!" Huanzhi's voice could not help but tinge He was angry, and at the same time he felt relieved after venting his stagnation. "What ugly phenomena do you say?" Le Shan clearly knew what Huanzhi was referring to, but asked deliberately; this kind of mood, which was almost a game, was regarded as a pastime after mental labor for him.

"You see everything as much as I do, and you never fail to know, according to your thoughts and opinions, which are ugly phenomena. Do you really not? Or—" "I know," Le Shan replied emotionally, as if he felt a little sorry for the almost game-like mood just now. "Let me tell you, the desire to drive the wheel of history, I think I am no worse than you. If things are thrown into your eyes, and you think you are not used to it, you will definitely not be able to escape my inspection." "That's needless to say. In short, the situation of plotting to gain profits and purely for oneself often makes me suddenly stunned, and I have doubts. Is this in the current era? If it is in the old era that has passed, it would be very Cooperate. But the facts tell me, this is obviously in the great new era now!" Leshan fell silent.He thought deeply, thinking about the tendency of the situation to change, thinking about the lack of talents to worry about, thinking that the old era that has passed may not really be past.Pessimism couldn't take root in his heart; however, the anxiety of a general with few reinforcements going deep into the enemy's line was boiling strongly again at this moment.But he didn't want to tell Huanzhi about his anxiety.He looked at Huanzhi, as Huanzhi himself said, after all, he is a single-minded and emotional person, if you tell him, it will only add some material for his indignation, what's the point? "I proposed my rural teacher's plan several times," Huanzhi saw that Leshan was silent, and poured out his unsettled indignation, "you tried your best to encourage me to draw up this plan, but most of them said it was easier to slow down. We are China, a China supported by peasants, but we say that rural education can be delayed, so what else should be done as soon as possible! Everyone just sits and chats and just looks at the white clouds, what kind of revolution is there!" "Didn't you say something like this when you talk about education? The knowledge that is forced to perfuse is not real, and it needs to be experienced by oneself to be real. So if a child wants to make fire, let him make fire, and if he wants to play with a knife, let him play with a knife. Now some Doing things wrong is comparable to children making fire and playing with knives; when you burn your hands and cut your fingers, you should get some real knowledge. It is not meaningless to think of it this way." "But there are people who knew that fire would burn their hands and knives would cut their fingers. It is meaningless to accompany everyone to do the initial self-experience." "Then what do you mean? Do you want to ask people who knew that fire would burn their hands and knives would cut their fingers to withdraw from the group and stand aside?" Le Shan's voice was quite serious. "That's not true," Huanzhi replied as if overwhelmed. "Well, no. That's okay." Le Shan breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Whoever wants to stand aside will lose his rights. He can only stare at the wheel of history, watching it turn like this, like that. Turn, turn slowly, turn fast, but can't push it with your own hands! In my opinion, such a person is absolutely boring." Huanzhi seems to have gotten a lot of comfort from Leshan; compared with Leshan's stone-like spirit, he sees that he is finally weak, so he encourages himself to be stronger, and try his best to reject the useless worries.He thought for a while, grabbed Leshan's palm, squeezed it tightly, and said, "The Buddha said that whoever goes to hell will go to hell if I don't, this sentence is interesting." "The Buddha may be a resident of hell all his life, because he is willing to bear the same sins and suffer the same fate as all sentient beings!" Leshan resolutely said. Huanzhi felt that the palm of his hand was hot. He was not holding a person's palm, but a burning heart.
