    Epilogue "Have you recovered the county seat?" John Zhang was still satisfied after hearing this. He pulled his grandfather's arm and asked in a low voice.  To be honest, the stories he heard along the way were not very exciting, but they were far more vivid and closer to himself than any historical information he had seen or heard before, especially when he heard them from his grandfather.  When he reached that sentence, "In order for future generations to never be bullied by others, in order to build a proud and free country on this land," there was a surge of heat in his heart. Although this was his first time outside the Great Wall, from now on  It's impossible to be more connected to this place.  "How is it possible? If it were that easy, the Anti-Japanese War wouldn't have lasted for eight years." Zhang Songling looked at the black tower in the distance and shook his head with a smile, "We lacked heavy weapons for attacking fortresses at that time, and the entire regiment  The Kwantung Army has already reached the halfway point. "The city tower was rebuilt on the site of the north gate of Heishizhai in the mid-1990s. It tried to maintain its original appearance, but Heishizhai is no longer the original Heishizhai. The urban area is  , has been five times the size of the year. Some areas that were not even considered outer suburbs have gradually become associated with urban areas and become part of the city with the advent of the real estate boom.  "Well, what about the young prince Baiyin? He, can he survive? According to you, he is not a person who can jointly deal with the crisis." Zhang John, who is used to seeing the scenery of big cities, is not satisfied with the scene in front of him.  The scenery didn't arouse any interest, so he continued to hold his grandfather's arm and dig deeper.  "He?" Zhang Songling smiled and continued to shake his head, "Of course he persevered. To be honest, I didn't expect him to persevere at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, we actually looked down on him back then. Baiyin  This guy is not only ambitious, but also very tenacious, and he also has a very far-sighted vision." "Oh." John Zhang nodded blankly, not commenting on his grandfather's statement. With Japan's national strength at that time, when it launched the Pearl Harbor attack.  In an instant, failure has become a doomed outcome. Moreover, a guerrilla group has not been defeated for several years in a row, and the latter has become stronger as they fight. Who else would be able to get along with Baiyin in a different place, I am afraid that he would not bet on it again  on the Japanese invaders.  "He not only has a long-term perspective on this matter." Zhang Songling guessed his grandson's confusion, thought about it, and continued to add, "In the last three and a half years of the Anti-Japanese War, he basically followed us and Zhou  Heizi fought side by side with the independent battalion. Even when he was chased by the Japanese and retreated into the desert, he did not accept the Japanese's recruitment. ""That's it, then he is really extraordinary." Zhang John thought for a while.  , nodded slightly.  "More than ordinary." Zhang Songling smiled and quickly threw out the second piece of evidence, "Not long after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, he resolutely pulled the team to the side of the Communist Party." "Ah." Zhang John was shocked, not only because  Bai Yin's foresight and for the follow-up of this story, "You, you and Peng Xuewen fought, what about Zhou Heitan, what will he do at that time." "No, I really wanted to fight him earlier.  Get up, that way, no matter whether he lives or dies in the end, he will be able to figure it out, and maybe someone will write a book and biography for him now." Zhang Songling sighed deeply and responded quietly.  "He, what's wrong with him? Who killed him?" Zhang John became more and more confused as he listened. He opened his round black eyes to find out more. According to his grandfather's previous statement, this Mr. Peng Xuewen can be regarded as a man of both civil and military skills. He has a strong foundation in the family.  He is also very powerful. Such a person has made great contributions in the Anti-Japanese War. Who can easily touch him?  "He committed suicide, it is said." Zhang Songling slowly closed his eyes, with anger in his voice that could not be erased by time. "In the year the Anti-Japanese War ended, his teacher Ma Hansan transferred him back to Peking, but the result was not waiting for him.  After setting off, another wave of people from the military command was sent, and they arrested him with Mao Renfeng's personal order, saying that when he was at the Chasui branch of the military command, he had secretly colluded with the Japanese and imprisoned him.  It turned out that in the Japanese military camp, he was tortured day and night. He couldn't bear the grievance and was unwilling to drag his teacher into the water according to the wishes of those who interrogated him. So when he was taken out to have fun, he hit his head on a stone and swallowed on the spot.  After hearing the news, Baiyin led Zhou Heitan to rebel, and then the three of us joined forces to attack the county town to avenge Peng Xuewen, and the defender was actually Jiang Hulu. " "Uh" Zhang.  John couldn't take a deep breath and almost choked and fainted. What on earth was going on? The former anti-Japanese hero was beaten into a traitor by the military commander himself. The former traitor turned into a loyal minister.  Ridiculous, is there anything more outrageous than this in this world?  "Politics is sometimes more cruel than war." Zhang Songling's words continued to come from his ears, and the sound made the young John Zhang feel sour and inexplicable, "When fighting, at least you knowWhen it comes to politics, no one is sure where the bullets are coming from.  " "Take your Grandpa Fang as an example.  " Touched by Peng Xuewen's experience, Zhang Songling sighed with a wry smile, " Such a dogmatic person was classified as a rightist in the 1960s. He finally expected to be rehabilitated, but before he could live a comfortable life for a few days, he was confused again.  He became an ultra-leftist, but the people who arrested him for being a rightist and the people who later criticized him for being an ultra-leftist were actually the same group of people.  "The person who can be listed as Zhang John's grandfather and whose surname is Fang is 100% Fang Guoqiang. In the story of his grandfather, this is a very facial image of a political worker. However, what Zhang John never expected was that,  The final experience of a person with such a facial expression was so bizarre, so bizarre that it made people laugh, and they couldn't help but sigh. He was about to continue to dig out the details about Bai Yin, Fang Guoqiang, and others from his grandfather's mouth.  The final outcome of Zhou Heitan and the others was that a burst of noise suddenly came from not far away, followed by the bustling flow of people around them, which stagnated slightly, and then rushed towards the city gate ruins like a tide. "There's a fight.  There's a fight!" The folk customs outside the Great Wall are fierce, and the people's favorite thing to watch is street fights. As long as no one is killed, no matter how fierce the fight, there will be no shortage of cheers and applause. "These guys.  "Zhang Songling's memory was interrupted. She looked at the crowd not far away and shook her head. How many years have passed, but the local people still love to join in the fun. This change in people's hearts is much slower than that of technology and industry. "It's not a fight.  It's not a fight, it's the old man of the Bai family. The old man of the Bai family is teaching the Japanese devils a lesson.  "In the crowd, a few more slightly exaggerated reports suddenly came out, as if they were doing a live broadcast for fear that the people behind would not see it. "Mr. Bai.  Zhang Songling was slightly startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but have a very strange premonition in his heart, "It can't be Bai Yin, he is almost a hundred years old."  " As he spoke, he ignored his old age and frailty. He separated his hands from the crowd and rushed towards the lively place. John Zhang was frightened out of his wits. He quickly followed him shouting, "Grandpa, Grandpa, please be careful. I'm sorry.  , I'm sorry, the old people like to watch the fun, don't crowd, don't crowd, the old people are not in good health, if you squeeze too much, you will get into trouble.  " I don't know whether his threat worked or whether Zhang Songling was actually not as fragile as he looked. In a blink of an eye, the grandfather and grandson had arrived in the center of the crowd. They saw a man with white beard and hair at the site of the old city gate.  The old man was carrying a cane and was whipping a guy in a blue suit. The blue suit was obviously fifty years younger than the white-haired old man. He was accompanied by more than thirty sturdy men as followers, but he was both  He didn¡¯t dare to fight back and didn¡¯t dare to ask his followers for help. He just covered his face and dodged around. ¡°If you wanted to save your face, you wouldn¡¯t have the idea of ??tearing down the stones from the tower to give to the little devils.  Repair the cemetery, bah, you can imagine that there are rabbits running around among the anti-Japanese martyrs, why don't you pay to repair it?  "The old man with the white beard refused to give up. The more he fought, the braver he became. The blue suit jumped around like a monkey. While jumping, he yelled loudly and wrongly, "Old man, old man, please listen to my explanation. This, this decision was not made by me.  I am just, just the contractor responsible for the construction. If you want to hit, you should also hit the people who made the decision. You should not hit me on the head.  " "I don't care. From today on, I will live under the tower. If anyone dares to pull a stone from above, I will give him his life."  "Whitebeard relied on his old skills, pointed at the blue suit with his cane, and continued to shout loudly. "Good fight.  " "It's time to fight. You are a bastard who has really forgotten your ancestors by building a cemetery for the Japanese devils."  " The people around were stomping and applauding, and cheering for the old man, fearing that the world would be peaceful. In the midst of the excitement, a piercing siren suddenly came from not far away. After a moment, an Audi A6 was protected by three police cars at the front and rear.  He stopped next to the crowd. Seeing this, most of the people watching immediately dispersed. Only a few who were very brave or had no connection with the local area, like Zhang Songling, continued to stay under the city tower and watched the development of the situation coldly.  The Audi cars were pulled away by the secretary, and a fat white man with a big belly stepped out. He first pushed the blue suit aside, then walked quickly to the white-haired old man, squatted down, and blamed him with a look of grievance:  "Grandpa, what are you doing? Building a cemetery for the Japanese pioneering group is part of the city's investment promotion plan and is for the long-term development of Heishizhai. Besides, the pioneering group is also an ordinary citizen and cannot be confused with the Japanese military." "  Give your mother's shit.  "It's okay that he didn't explain. As soon as he explained, the old man's beard and eyebrows stood up at the same time. He pointed the man's chest with his crutch and cursed loudly: "They are soldiers or ordinary people. I am no younger than you.The bastard knows very well that some of the little devils who came to China to hunt for gold had never had the blood of the Chinese on their hands. Ordinary people, have you ever seen ordinary people training with guns on their shoulders and firing at the heads of Chinese people at every turn?  Common people, let me tell you, among the ten dead Japanese ronin, at least five were killed by your grandfather and my men. If you want to erect a monument for them today, you will have to kill me first and bury me under the monument.  " "Grandpa, Grandpa, calm down, calm down, we didn't mean it like that. This place is too messy. Please go home with me first. When you get home, I will explain to you slowly." Fatty Bai was so embarrassed that he was scolded.  Blushing, he begged in a low voice, "I won't go back. I will live here today to see who dares to tear down the city wall to build graves for the Japanese. I don't understand what it means to attract investment. I know that if people don't know how to love themselves.  , no one will look down upon him.  "White Beard refused to give up and continued to shout loudly. "Okay, Brother Baiyin, please leave some room for change for the child.  "Zhang Songling saw that the fat man was really pitiful, so he raised his head and shouted in support. "Which yamen are you from?" The old man with the white beard was getting angry and immediately turned his eyes to Zhang Songling. He only said half of the mocking words, but his body froze on the spot as if possessed by an evil spirit.  , After a long while, he staggered a few steps and tried with a trembling voice, "You, you are Fatty Zhang, is it you? How did you get here? In broad daylight, don't scare me on purpose."  " "You are the lonely ghost.  Zhang Songling was also very excited. She wiped the corners of her eyes and shouted back, "When did our friendship reach that level? I will never forget you even if I die."  " "As long as it is a living person, it is good as long as it is a living person.  Bai Yin immediately forgot what he was doing and took a few steps forward like a child. He took Zhang Songling's arm with both hands and introduced him to his official grandson, "Little Batu, this is your Grandpa Zhang."  , if it weren¡¯t for him back then, our whole family would definitely be doomed. Come here quickly and kowtow to your Grandpa Zhang.  " "Grandpa Zhang.  "The fat official's face turned red again. He stepped forward and bowed deeply to Zhang Songling, "I often hear my grandfather mention you. Why did you come back this time when you were free? Why didn't you notify me in advance?  I'll arrange a car to pick you up.  " "Get out of here, your Grandpa Zhang wants to take the bus, it's your turn to pick him up."  Seeing that his grandson refused to kowtow to Zhang Songling, Baiyin raised his foot and kicked him five feet away. Then he held Zhang Songling's arm tightly, as if the other person would run away at any time, and shouted, "Come back, come back."  Okay, let's go and go to my house for a drink. We two brothers must have a good time tonight.  " "I can't drink anymore.  "Zhang Songling let the other party drag her and strode out of the crowd, "I came back with my little grandson this time. John, hurry up and see your Grandpa Baiyin.  " "It's about Grandpa Baiyin.  "Finally seeing a living character in the story, John Zhang bowed deeply to Bai Yin with some curiosity. "Good boy, good boy.  "Bai Yin smiled and supported Zhang John. At the same time, he groped back and forth on his body with his other hand. He finally found a piece of jade Buddha with body temperature on his waist. He smiled and pressed it hard.  He placed it in the young man¡¯s palm and said, ¡°Take it and let Buddha bless you with peace and joy in your life.  " "This" Although Zhang John didn't understand jade culture, he also knew that this item was valuable. He quickly raised his head and asked his grandfather for instructions. "You can take it as long as you want. Your Grandpa Baiyin is a rich man.  "Zhang Songling nodded and ordered with a smile. Baiyin immediately raised his eyes and retorted, "You are the rich man. Your old Zhang family almost lost their business to the outside world, if you weren't such a waste of money, you little bastard.  , maybe even half of Blackstone City can be bought now.  " The two old men teased each other, and in a blink of an eye they left the fat official, the blue suit, and others behind. Seeing that no idlers were following around, Zhang Songling suddenly stopped and asked with a bit of pride, "You old thing.  , who are you telling me about the bitter plot today? Could it be that with Batu's current status, he can't stop the erection of a monument to the little devil?  " "You are so old, you can't just pretend to be confused.  Bai Yin, who was in his nineties, rolled his eyelids at Zhang Songling, who was in his eighties, and said bitterly, "As soon as you came forward, I knew you had seen through it again. That bastard Batu's bones are too soft to dare."  They all fell out with several other members of the Standing Committee, and those others were all eager to make contributions. As long as they could attract Japanese businessmen, they didn't care who they built monuments for.  " "Then you just" "As soon as I make a fuss here today, Batu will have reason to vote against the municipal committee vote, and then find a way to poke it in the newspaper, and I guess he can get rid of the matter of erecting a monument for the little devil.  , completely mixed and yellowed.  "Baiyin winked, as proud as a child who had stolen candy. "As for that, you have also been secretary of the prefectural committee, so you will not pass the formal examination."Way to go." Zhang Songling didn't understand Bai Yin's difficulties. He glanced at the other party and scolded him with disdain. Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized that Bai Yin's character was like this. He always took detours but never went straight. Besides, this old guy didn't go straight.  He has been retired for more than ten years, and his influence in the political circles has long been close to zero. It is actually very rare for the two of them to come up with this painful trick. The two of them have worked together for several years, so there is no need to say a lot of things in full. You can guess.  What Zhang Songling was thinking, Lao Baiyin couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I'm old. There are no people I knew back then. Parkinson's, Parkinson's. No one has listened to my words for a long time. Today's young people,  In order to make money, you can sell anything. Oh, forget it, forget it, let's not mention this. You old thing, why did you suddenly think of coming back to take a look?  " "While you can still move, let's go out for a walk, see you and see Lao Fang, and then go and toast Lao Peng and Heizi with a glass of wine.  "After taking a look at Bai Yin's sparse eyebrows and hair, Zhang Songling told the truth. "They have all been in the rain of bullets. The two old people really don't care about the words or not. They just mentioned the ending of those friends back then, and they felt a little bit in their hearts.  Sadly, Peng Xuewen was actually purged by the military commander himself. Fang Guoqiang first became a rightist and then became an extreme leftist. He was out of tune in his life and has now completely lost his memory. Zhou Heitan, since the advent of peace, has changed his career to manage agriculture and animal husbandry.  , specializing in studying how to use the seasonal rivers on the grasslands to grow rice. It took nearly twenty years to finally produce results. A certain central leader in charge of the central government personally called his name and met with him in Beijing. Soon that person  The leader collapsed, and Zhou Heitan's past as a bandit was immediately revealed by the revolutionary masses with bright glasses: "Let's go together and serve Heizi a bowl of rice another day.  "Gently rubbing his eyes, Baiyin suggested in a low voice, "I heard from his cellmate that during the Chinese New Year that year, he kept clamoring for a bowl of rice, but the guard thought he was causing trouble and locked him up alone.  The trumpet, one cell lasts for five days. When the New Year is over, when I think of letting him out, his body has already hardened, and the handcuffs are full of teeth marks!" "Alas!" Zhang Songling had long forgotten this past.  He had read the letter, and the pain in his heart had long been numb. He didn't know who to blame. The derelict guard was stabbed in the kidney with a dagger for arresting escaped prisoners in the early 1980s.  He died on the spot, and the senior leader who summoned Zhou Heitan and implicated him in jail will never be rehabilitated for what he did in the end. ¡°Sigh.  Baiyin also sighed in a low voice, "Those days were so crazy! If you hadn't come forward to testify for me at the critical moment, I would have ended up with Heizi long ago."  " Suddenly, he remembered a very important thing. He looked into Zhang Songling's eyes and solemnly requested, "How on earth did you tell the investigators back then? Many people complained on my behalf, but none of them stood up, but you  Because I was on the wrong team at that time, I had already been kicked out to a second-tier factory. How could it help me clear the charge of being a foreign trader?  " "This" Zhang Songling was immediately pulled out of his sadness and scratched his head. Seeing the embarrassed look on his face, Bai Yin's curiosity became more and more intense. He pulled his sleeves hard and urged loudly, "  Say it quickly, don't lie, we are both this old, and you still want me to wonder how I escaped death until I die.  " "Actually, it's nothing, I just told a few truths." Zhang Songling was forced to admit with a forced smile. "What truth, you kid shouldn't add insult to injury, probably not, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to  Let me go.  " "I just told them that although this old guy Bai Yin is very dishonest, he is not a fool. When he suffered a defeat and was chased by Sun Lanfeng so hard that he could not even take a breath, he did not surrender to the Kuomintang.  , now that the whole country is in red, how could he be stupid enough to hook up with the Kuomintang agents again, unless his head was kicked by a donkey.  " "You little bastard, how dare you look down on me.  Bai Yin was stunned at first, then became furious and rushed over with his fists raised. Zhang Songling turned around and ran away, laughing and responding as he ran, "You old thing, you don't recognize anyone when you fall out of favor."  No, I even beat up my savior and accused you of being unjust and unjustly accusing you.  "One of the two old men ran away, the other chased, running farther and farther in the sunset, their bodies slowly blending into the golden sunset, getting younger and younger. "Woo woo,.  "A passing train blew its whistle, and several wild birds were frightened and flew up. They flew over the iconic towers of Black Rock City, past the rows of residential houses, and flew to the top of the huge stone altar, soaring in the wind. In the huge stone altar, a few wisps of green  The smoke slowly rose up, was blown away by the evening wind, and flew into the distance, towards the end of the sky and the earth.
