Chapter 27 Almost got killed in the first quarter

The unannounced visit to the theft gang ended on New Year's Eve of that year; the unannounced visit to the poaching gang began in the summer of the second year, with several months in between.In the past few months, I have done a lot of manuscripts that are not unannounced visits, defending the rights of the injured migrant workers, cheering for the small grassroots victories, adding courage and confidence to the disadvantaged, and unveiling the veil of hypocrisy of profiteers... Whenever I am very happy and relieved to see those who are in trouble regain their dignity and honor.I have experienced the value of this job, the glory of this profession.

I have always felt that those who are hurt, those who are poor, those who are alone, are like my brothers.I used to be like them, running around the streets looking for a job with a few cents in my pocket; riding a tricycle, and greeted everyone with a smile; I was forced to resign because a manuscript offended a cadre at the sub-section level ;In order to save the accommodation fee, I slept on the street at night... I, like them, came from the bottom of the society. It's hard work, and finally survived to this day.I deeply understand those who are in poverty, those whose dignity has been trampled; I deeply understand their pain, their helplessness.If I watch them starve and cold, see them helpless, see their hearts devastated, I will be condemned by conscience.

Looking back on the experience of those few months now, the most impressive thing is that I was hunted down once.I still don't know who killed me that time. Was it the evil forces that I visited unannounced before, or the illegal profiteers who were attacked and retaliated against?I have "offended" too many people in this profession. That night, I was walking home alone after get off work, completely unaware that someone was following me.I have always walked very fast, especially when I am alone at night.When he was about to reach the night bus station, a thin man suddenly walked up on the platform, and two people flashed behind the stop sign.At that time, there were very few people on the platform.The thin man walked towards me and looked to the side.He has not looked at me, and I have not paid attention to him.Just as he passed by, he suddenly stretched out his arm.I dodged subconsciously, turned my head, and suddenly saw the gleaming sharp blade in his palm under the streetlight.Then, I felt a pain in my chest.

I turned and ran, and they chased after me.Before I ran a few steps, I suddenly saw two people in front of me, stretching out their arms to stop me.I slanted and ran to the road again.At night in the southern city, there is still traffic on the road.As soon as I ran to the middle of the road and stood on the double yellow line, there was a rumbling engine sound behind me, one car after another drove past, and the wind blowing from the car body was blowing my trousers.I looked back to see them stop a taxi and make a quick escape. When the traffic flow thinned out, I ran across the road, stopped a taxi in a hurry, and told the driver to speed up and drive to the hospital in the distance.I fear they will find me in a nearby hospital.I reached into my clothes and touched the sticky blood.

Later, I was bandaged in the hospital, but fortunately, the injury was not very serious.To this day, I still have a half-inch-long scar on my chest. Later, I thought that the sharp blade that stabbed me might be a scalpel, because the cut was not deep; if it was a scalpel, then they must be a gang of thieves.The relationship between the theft gangs is intricate. The street theft gangs and the door-twisting gangs are close relatives and have contacts with each other.I thought it might be another gang of thieves trying to get back at me, because I didn't know any of those people. After the stabbing incident, I carried a nine-jointed whip in my satchel when I went to and from get off work.The nine-section whip was purchased at a martial arts equipment store in Dengfeng when I was interviewing the abbot of Shaolin Temple.I also learned the three strokes and two styles of the 1.9-section whip.When the nine-section whip is swung, it is difficult for a few small thieves to get close.

From then on, I felt a shadow in my heart. No matter it was day or night, when I was walking on the street, I had to carefully observe the people around me to see if there was anyone posing a threat to me.Whenever someone approaches me quickly, or runs towards me, I get extremely nervous.And every time I go back to the door of the house, I have to look back again and again to see if anyone is following me. I will not go up the stairs quickly until there is no one behind me, and then walk into the house. This nervous mentality lasted for a long time.I feel that I am very tired and tired. Sometimes, I think, why am I doing these unannounced visits?Why do such a dangerous job?Why can't I be like them, with a red envelope in one hand and a manuscript in the other, and after I squeeze the manuscript, it will appear in the newspaper and I will get the manuscript fee. Everyone is happy with such a manuscript.And I made unannounced visits all these years, what did I get?I still rent a private house in the urban-rural fringe area, I still go a long way to save the bus fare of one or two yuan, I still buy the cheapest vegetables in the vegetable market, and I still pay for a taxi ride. Distressed for a long time.When others lived in high-end residential areas and drove their private cars to work, I walked into the same office building under the scorching sun and sweating, and I felt a huge gap in my heart.

However, unannounced visits are an important part of in-depth reporting.Someone has to do it; since you've chosen this line of work, there's nothing to complain about. Chi Dao was also beaten by the school security guard.Chi Dao was not only beaten, but also lost his job. I have always believed that Chi Dao is an excellent middle school Chinese teacher.He said that the current school education is an exam-oriented education, not quality education.The school revolves around the baton of the college entrance examination, turning the students into a memorizing machine, but the students' ability and knowledge have not improved.After the students enter the society, these memorized things are of no use to them and will be gradually forgotten.Therefore, he hated this way of education.

Chi Dao believes that there are many problems in the current textbook compilation.For a certain purpose, the writer forced the students with didactic articles with low artistic value.This kind of cramming teaching method will only make students feel disgusted and disgusted, and make students lack judgment on beauty, respect for art, and interest in learning.Therefore, in Chinese class, Chi Dao recommended to students a large number of famous works by ancient and modern Chinese and foreign masters, such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Su Shi, He Zhu, Xin Qiji, Byron, Shelley, Pushkin, Xu Zhimo and Dai Wangshu, and even others. When I see a good article just published in a newspaper, I will also introduce it to the students and read it aloud in class.He also issued a book list to the students, requiring them to read at least one book a month.These books are extracurricular books in the traditional sense.At that time, schools prohibited students from reading, because reading extracurricular books would delay their studies.

Chi Dao students who have read a large number of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign literary masterpieces, their test scores are very poor every time, and their class's Chinese test scores are always at the bottom of the whole grade.Parents don't know the truth, thinking that Chi Dao is not a competent language teacher, and demand to change the teacher; teachers don't know the truth, thinking that Chi Dao can't teach and educate people, and the classes he leads are always the worst.In fact, only Chi Dao knows that all the questions in the Chinese exam are the content of the textbooks, and he is self-styled and sticks to the rules. What Chi Dao explained has long exceeded the content of these less artistic texts.

On that day, the principal talked to Chi Dao and planned to fire him. Chi Dao argued hard with the principal, denouncing the various drawbacks of the current exam-oriented education;Later, the headmaster reciprocated Chi Dao with old punches, and Chi Dao fought back.In this way, the principal called the security guard.Three security guards who looked like wolves and tigers beat Chi Dao until his head was bleeding. What Chi Dao was fighting against was not an ignorant principal, nor three ignorant security guards.What he is fighting against is a powerful exam-oriented education system.He was destined to be crushed like an egg against a boulder.Like Don Quixote fighting the windmill, he is doomed to failure.

In those days, I could only comfort Chi Dao, facing his plight, there was nothing I could do. Later, Chi Dao left the city and continued his wandering life.Now, I don't know where he drifted to.
