That "big-character poster" was written by Eight Circles. Eight laps was originally for singing.In the early years, I followed the old theater troupe, the kind of grass-stage troupe that walked from village to lane, and studied Danjiao.Baquan has practiced soft skills in the class, walking softly and twisting very well; the accent is average, the mouth is sandy, the throat is small and dumb, and the singing is babbling and full of flavor, which is very popular among the people.Before liberation, he had a stage name called "Langbaquan".Later, all the opera singers belonged to the Yue Diao Troupe in the county, and he became an actor in the county troupe. An actor is an actor, but he has never sung.At that time, the old lyrics were not allowed to be sung, and it was not fashionable for men to disguise themselves as women, so he almost became a useless person.In the theater troupe, it is just running around and taking clothes and so on.People yelled, eight laps or eight laps, but no more waves.

When the "Cultural Revolution" in the city was in full swing, Hujiapu was still very peaceful.At that time, the country people didn't know what happened in the city, and they still worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.And Hujiapu is the cotton experiment base set up by the province. Under the leadership of Hu Tiancheng, the people just planted cotton with a single mind.At that time, Hu Tiancheng also raised a slogan: plant good cotton and support the world revolution!The world is far away, the revolution is vague, and there is only cotton.As a result, people soaked in the cotton fields day and night.

However, eight laps came back.On the day I came back from Eight Circles, I wore a "red armband" on my arm. The armband was made of red cloth with the words "Red Guards" printed on it.Baquan wore such an armband and walked around the village first. After getting used to it, the walk is still soft.An old man asked: Eight laps back?Sing the "Eighteen Touches" again.He snorted and ignored it.At this time, he was most afraid of someone saying this.Then he came to the edge of the cotton field and saw that the women in the village were cutting flower branches, so he walked from one end of the field to the other, and then walked back again, with his arms raised high.When someone finally noticed him, he said: Eight circles are back.What are you wearing on that arm?The culture of the eight circles is not high, so they say: revolution!There has been a revolution in the city long ago!As a result, some women gathered around and heard Baquan say "revolution". Baquan was very excited, and he felt like performing on stage again, and said a mouthful of sticky foam!

He said to people: "This is called a Red Guard, understand? Wear this, and you are Chairman Mao's Red Guard! Old, you can smash whatever you want; the Red Guards can raid their homes, and they can raid whose homes they want! Do you know what I am doing when I come back? I am back in series, in series! Do you understand? Chairman Mao sent me to come back in series Yes! As long as you wear this, you will be Chairman Mao's man..." People were stunned for a while, and then took a closer look at the "red armband" he was wearing, and they all added a lot of awe.In people's eyes, the eight circles immediately became taller!

At that time, Xiuya was also cutting flowers in the field.When she came all the way from the other side of the ground, she saw a group of women surrounding a strange person, who was dancing and talking to someone.So she also came over, and before she came to the front, the stranger said: "Who is this? I have been away for many years, and I don't know each other." Immediately, those women chattered. The introduction said: "The Budai family, this belongs to the Budai family." Baquan looked at her straightly and said, "Oh, 'Brand' is so good, why don't you learn to sing? What a pity, what a pity!" So As soon as she said it, Xiuya's face turned red, and she said shyly: "I don't know. This is..." People said again: "This is Uncle Baquan, our famous Baquan here! A member of the county troupe Now they are Red Guards!" Baquan said again: "Just now, when you walked over, I saw it. The movement of pinching the flower head is really beautiful..." As he said, Baquan stretched out his hand, After imitating the way Xiuya pinches flowers, it is still "orchid fingers", soft and soft, curled up and curled up, which makes the women laugh!One by one said enviously, Uncle Baquan is really an opera singer, what does he look like!Baquan said very seriously: "This, this niece and daughter-in-law are really good. It would be a pity if they don't learn opera." As he spoke, he clicked his tongue again.When he flicked his tongue, Xiuya's face turned red.Someone said: "Uncle Quan, you teach her. If Xiuya can sing, she will be attractive." Eight circles looked at it again and said, "Turn around, I'll teach you later, maybe you can pick her up." Go to the county." Then, he said "revolution", which moved the hearts of all the women.

At noon that day, when he returned to the village, he walked around the village street again and again in eight circles, so that people could see the "red armband" he was wearing.When meeting Hu Tiancheng, Baquan pointed to his arm and said, "Tiancheng, I'm back." Hu Tiancheng smiled and said, "Good to be back, good to be back." Baquan said: "Tiancheng, I'm coming back for a 'revolution', do you support it?" Hu Tiancheng nodded and said, "Support, support." Eight circles said: "The situation is changing quickly. I'll go back and tell you about the situation. You have to listen carefully."

Hu Tiancheng said: "Okay, good." That night, Baquan wrote a "big-character poster".The paper, pens, and ink used to write the "big-character posters" in Baquan were all bought on credit at the consignment point.Hong Kuan, who was in charge of the consignment point, asked him for money, and he said, "Money? How dare you raise money at this time?! This is a revolution!" So Hong Kuan didn't dare to raise money either. When Yemo came down, Baquan went to the brigade headquarters.The door of the brigade department was open, but it was a bit dark in the room. Eight circles walked to the door and said to himself, "Why aren't the lights on?" He touched the edge of the bed and was about to sit down when he touched it again, and there was a bright white flesh on the bed, and the flesh let out a "ah"... He was startled at first, and then he heard the sound.He knew who it was, and said in his heart, you also know the truth of "If you want to be famous, sleep with the master first"!In a moment of anger, he took it off and said in a low voice, "It's you? Then, I'll teach you the 'Eighteen Touches' first." But then, what he heard was a scream! ...

At this moment, I heard a shout from outside the door: "Catch the red-bellied thief! Come and catch the red-bellied thief!" Immediately afterwards, Hu Dunzi, the commander of the militia, rushed in with a group of people holding a lantern in his hand!Baquan panicked, covered his head with one hand, and was busy pulling up his pants with the other...while shouting: "I'm back for the revolution! I'm back for the revolution!" Hu Dunzi kicked off his half-lifted pants!Cursed: "Screw your mother's foot! The revolutionary ball came to the woman's stomach?!"

All of a sudden, people from the village rushed out, shouting excitedly one by one: "Drag that red-bellied thief out!" Then, the naked Baquan was dragged out. Fa', some pinched, twisted, kicked, bited... Eight laps cried and said, "You can't beat me, I'm a Red Guard, I'm a Red Guard!" The women shouted in confusion: "Your mother's feet are red! Pooh him!..." Immediately, the saliva sprayed like raindrops towards the eight circles, almost drowning him! In the plain countryside, "stealing a woman" means stealing someone's "house"!This is the most resentful act of theft.You stole it on the bed, what else can't you steal? !According to the folk customs, he can be beaten to death with a stick.However, when Sun Budai rushed up with a five-tooth dung fork in his hand, he was stopped by a loud shout: "Stop!"

It was Hu Tiancheng who spoke, and Hu Tiancheng hurried forward and said: "Everyone is out of temper. I think it's okay. If someone dies, it's hard to explain. Anyway, Uncle Baquan Coming back is a revolution, so we can’t stop people from making revolutions, right?” People shouted, "What revolution? A revolution on someone's bed?!" Hu Tiancheng said: "Okay, okay, go back, everyone go back, I will take care of this matter. The militiamen stay, and the militiamen will patrol as usual." With such good words, everyone was persuaded to leave. In the middle of the night, Xiuya was sent back crying, leaving only Baquan and Hutiancheng in the team headquarters.Baquan was covered in blood, his clothes were all torn, and the "red armband" was dragged to nowhere, just squatting on the ground trembling.

Hu Tiancheng turned the lantern brighter, and said, "Uncle Baquan, what are you?" Baquan whimpered and said, "I... I'm here to tell you about the situation, I'm really here to tell you about the situation." Hu Tiancheng said: "I know. It would be great if I came back earlier. There is no one at the moment, so tell me." Baquan sighed and said incoherently: "Forget it, it's useless to talk about it. This place is too backward. I, I am wronged, I am so wronged. I am really obsessed! What happened to me? How else to behave?" Hu Tiancheng said: "Uncle Baquan, if you don't want to talk about it, forget it. Listen to me, okay?" Ba Quan said: "Tian Cheng, tell me." Hu Tiancheng said: "Uncle, I just took a trip into the city and brought your file back by the way..." Baquan was dumbfounded. He was stunned for a long time before hesitatingly said: "Tiancheng, I'll tell the truth, I'll tell you the truth, I'm not a Red Guard, I made that armband myself. You, don't tell it! " Hu Tiancheng said: "I won't tell. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone again. But Uncle Quan, the superior said that calling you back is subject to control, and I don't know how to 'control', look ?” Baquan's complexion changed, and he murmured: "They say I am... a ghost and a snake spirit. Tian Cheng, although I am an old artist, I have sung that, that sour, sour song, but, I can't be considered a ghost and a snake spirit, right? ?” Hu Tiancheng said: "It's nothing else. I saw your sign on the gate of the county theater troupe, and the sign with a black cross?... Or, should I send you back?" Baquan begged, "Tiancheng, please don't let me go back. As long as you don't let me go back, I will do whatever you want. I will never forget your great kindness!" Hu Tiancheng also sighed, and said, "Uncle Quan, since you're back, let's pick dung in the village." In this way, the eight laps are just a day of "revolution".On the third day, he honestly picked up manure.Moreover, there is no mention of "revolution" anymore. The big-character poster was only posted on the wall for one day, and then it was blown off by the wind.The "red armband" worn by Baquan was seen later, and it was torn apart and hung on the wall of a pigsty. Thus ended the "revolution" in Hujiapu.
