When: Spring 2017.
Location: Liangjiatun, a mountainous rural area.
Stage: Farmhouse ornamentation.
Behind-the-scenes chorus: The spring breeze and rain are moist, and the countryside has a new look.
Do not forget the original intention to follow the party, and the feelings of the major general are touching.
The curtain opens. Liang Jinshan was lying on the bed and taking a needle. Tian Yuying stayed by the bedside.
Yuying: Alas!Singing: My wife, he made a fuss all night without resting, didn't recognize his relatives and didn't remember his homeland, and talked nonsense.
didn't eat, drink, don't take injections, didn't listen to commands, he lost his mind, tired physically and mentally, and he was anxious!
Zheng Xinxiu was in a hurry.
Xinxiu: Auntie.
Yuying: Dr. Zheng is here.
Shinso: I'm asleep.
Yuying: Hmm. Xinxiu: Uncle has such a big temper!
Yuying: Alas!He's old and confused!Don't be weird, kid!
Sing: You are a good doctor, and everyone is happy when they see it.
You are a good doctor in the village, and the old and young masters love you!
Xinxiu: Thank you, auntie!
Yuying: Doctor Zheng, what I said is from my heart!
Xinxiu: Auntie.
Sing: Yesterday was quite strange, and it's even harder to guess if it's true or not.
Changshan to build a villa?
What about that cemetery?
Yuying: Who said it wasn't coming!I guess it's because of this that Uncle you became like this!Alas!He's been guarding this graveyard here for decades!Dr. Zheng!
Sing: He didn't forget that on May 13, 1943, more than 200 devils and traitors came to attack Changshan.
The battle started on the three poles of the sun, and the devil's artillery fire blew up the mountain.
The members of the martial arts team relied on their wisdom and courage to maneuver skillfully with the terrain.
Defend the villagers and their homes, and fight indomitable and stubborn.
The enemy is outnumbered and difficult to deal with, so he blasts and breaks through to the rescue.
The day after the rescuers came, his comrade-in-arms was martyred.
WHITE: There are more than 30 people!
The blood of the comrades-in-arms was sprinkled on the earth, dyeing the red cuckoo of Changshan.
Bai: Dr. Zheng!
Singing: They guerrilla in the mountains and rivers, killing devils and traitors.
The mountains and rivers are intertwined, and the hearts of grass and trees are connected.
Now that this place is going to be demolished, how can he be at peace with his heart? !
Bai: He was worried that he would lose his qualification to accompany his comrades-in-arms in the future, how could he feel better?
Shinso: yes!It's really not easy for him to live as an old man!I heard that the old man joined the martial arts team at the age of thirteen and was a hero of the anti-Japanese resistance!Awarded the Order of Merit by the superior commander, with the rank of Major General!
Singing: I want to bravely kill the enemy in the south and the north, and my comrades-in-arms are not afraid of sacrifice and move forward bravely.
After liberation, he was awarded a military rank and medal, and asked to return to his hometown to accompany his comrades-in-arms in the back mountain.
Guarding the tomb of the martyrs is willing to this day, and before I know it, it is eighty-three this year.
For decades, the cemetery trees are thick, and the pines, cypresses and flowers are accompanied by each other all year round.
Bai: These deeds of the old man are so touching!I'm going to ask if that's the case?I always think it's unlikely. It's a rumor!
Yuying: I hope it's a rumor!Alas!I can't say anything about it now. Villas are being built everywhere for real estate development. Alas!
Xinxiu: (Ringtone.) Okay, a little later. Auntie, I'm gone. I'll be back in a moment.
Yuying: Walk slowly!(Heart show).
Liang Jinshan woke up. Yuying: (concerned) Old man, are you awake?
Liang Jinshan got up suddenly.
Kanayama: (angry) What are you doing here?What injections!I'm not sick!(angrily pointing at Yuying) You traitor!
Yuying: You. Don't let me live!
Kanayama: (smashing things) You traitors!Badass!(The two tear up).
Liang Zheng hurried up first.
Zhengxian: (shouting) Great!Mother!(See Blocked.) Opened. Great, if you have something to say, what is this for!
Yuying: (sobbing) Son!You're back!
Zhengxian: (concerning) Da, what's wrong with you?
Kanayama: (upset) Not really. Who called you back?
First: My mother.
Jin Shan: (not angry) I'm not sick, what are you doing when you come back?
Yuying: (angry) Why aren't you sick?Look at how big you look, is this sick?Kids!
Singing: You were delirious yesterday, and scolded me for being a thief and a traitor.
Speaking upside down and speaking clearly, it looks like an old fool looking for trouble.
I had no choice but to give him an injection at home, but he pulled out the needle and ran out!
I can't really cure him alone, so I have no choice but to ask you to go home and help me.
Bai: (aggrieved) You also saw it just now, this is the fifth time that I have pulled out the needle and stopped playing!It's awkward!
Zhengxian: (concern) Greatly. (Touching Jinshan's head, hands, and pulse)
Kanayama: (angry) I'm not sick!What to see?!
Zhengxian: (anxious) Great, aren't you embarrassed?I came all the way from Qingdao Hospital to hear that your old man is not feeling well, why are you still like this?
Kanayama: (anxious and angry) I'm really not sick!
Yuying: (anxious) Won't you tell the child to see it?!After all, he is a famous doctor in society!
Jin Shan: (angry) What kind of famous doctor is not a famous doctor?!I'm not sick!
Zhengxian: (concerning) Great, you're a little feverish. Shall I prescribe some medicine and a small injection for you?
Kanayama: (angry and decisive) No fight!
Zhengxian: (Intentionally asking) Do you think you can do it?
Kanayama: (decisively) Yes!
Zhengxian: (Intentionally) That's good. Then I went back to Ang.
Kanayama: (Stops) Slow!
Zhengxian: (intentionally) What?
Kanayama: (Explaining) I'm really sick.
Zhengxian: (intentionally) Oh, big, you admit to being sick?
Kanayama: (reluctantly) Admitted.
Zhengxian: (rest assured) Your old man finally admitted that he was sick!Great!
Sing: When people reach a certain age, they are weak and in poor health, and it is not strange not to get angry.
Calm your mind, don't get angry and find something to do, ** If you are uncomfortable, say to me quickly!
Kanayama: (angry) I'm getting better?Not sick!
Zhengxian: (anxious) Look at Dada, just now he said that he was sick, and now he is gone!
Yuying: (explaining) You've been like this for the past few days!Exceptionally strong since yesterday.
Kanayama: (angrily) Get out!You traitor!If I don't give you two beatings, you don't want to do it (feel good)!
Yuying: (aggrieved) Look at it, you've been like this these days, I'm really a straw chicken!
Zhengxian: (Doesn't feel right and asks) Mother!What the hell is going on?
Yuying: (depressed) Alas!Kids!
Singing: The village is talking about building a villa in the back mountain, but I don't know what to do with the martyr's tomb?
Maybe you're really angry at this mess and angry nonsense.
Bai: You said that, we don't know if it's true or notWhy do you want to hurt your body like this?
Kanayama: (angrily) You know what a fart!Traitor!
Zhengxian: (discouraged) Great!
Sing: Don't be angry when you're old, don't worry if you have something to say.
You have emotions and children understand, heart disease is also a disease.
Jin Shan: (unconvinced) I don't have a heart disease!I'm just not sick!
Sing: I'm eighty-three this year, and no one cares about me anymore.
Most of the burials are not cared for, but it is difficult but my wish!
WHITE: (pessimistic) Alas!That's it!(Angry) forget your roots!Without the blood and sacrifice of these martyrs, they still live in villas?!I don't know where I am alive or dead?!
Zhengxian: (heartache) Great!
Singing: Looking at the tears of the elderly father, the beard is scruffy and the face is thin, and the heart is sad.
His hair was loose like withered grass and frost, and his kind face disappeared and was no longer visible.
My father had a heart disease, and it was difficult to cure the source of the disease with decoction.
What should I do about this?
This prescription is really difficult!
WHITE: That's rightIt is necessary to determine whether the matter of building a villa in the back mountain is true before speaking!
Zheng Xinxiu excitedly got on the ground.
Xinxiu: It's all here!Dr. Liang is back?
Zhengxian: I'm back.
Shinso: (excitedly) Great!Auntie!I inquired and understood, it was not as those people in the village said, it turned out that our civil affairs department was preparing to move the martyrs' souls to the foot of the mountain and build a large martyrs' cemetery for the convenience of all walks of life to pay tribute to the martyrs!
Zhengxian: (asks urgently) What is the vacated cemetery for?Do you still build villas?
Xinxiu: (happy) Dr. Liang!
Singing: The spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China shines, and the whole country is highly motivated.
Remembering the martyrs and not forgetting their roots, defending the country and following the party.
Reform and opening up have not stopped, and the mountainous rural areas have changed greatly!
Bai: (excited) Dr. Liang, according to reliable sources, the vacated cemetery has been planted with trees and greened!There is no such thing as building a villa at all!
Masaka: (excited) Really?That's great!Great!Did you hear that?Guarding the martyrs' cemetery is still your old business!
Kanayama: (depressed) Alas!It has nothing to do with me. I'm old, so it doesn't work!I can't do it!(Awarded the Meritorious Service Medal with the rank of Major General.) Tears) look, these are outdated!Kids!(Take the commander's clothes) This is the clothes that the commanders wore back then!He wore this costume and awarded me the meritorious service medal, and I still haven't forgotten that scene, and I still keep it!Who cares about that?(crying) I care!(Bring yourself the medal of merit of military rank on the chest).
Zhengxian: (very impressed) Great!
Singing: The old man's actions made ** tears, this generation is not born and dies for individuals.
In fact, he is not sick and his heart is too depressed, and this heart knot must be relieved and the root cause of heart disease must be cured!
Shiro: (epiphany) Yes!I've got a cure!Great!You're not sick!The child knows!You always come here and sit. Mother!Doctor Zheng, I have been very well served. (Urgently).
Xinxiu: (exhorting and encouraging) Uncle!In the future, the matter of guarding the martyrs' cemetery will still be yours!You're the only one!
Kanayama: (pessimistic) Alas!Old!No more!The body is useless!As long as my comrades-in-arms have a place to live, I will rest assured!Alas!
Yuying: (Holding a bowl of chicken soup.) Affectionately) old man!I think you were awarded the Meritorious Service Medal by the superior commander with the rank of Major General!He is a meritorious man!
Kanayama: (pessimistically refuses) Alas!That's all in the past.
Yuying: (encouraging) Old man!Lift your spirits!Drink this bowl of chicken soup!Pick up the bowl and eat!
Kanayama: (pessimistic) Now that I'm old, I can't pick up a bowl to eat.
Liang Zheng put on the commander's clothes first.
Zhengxian: Comrade Liang Jinshan!Look up, look!Who am I?
Singing: Wearing a gray military hat, red five-star golden light.
Wearing eight-way gray **, eight-way two-word two-arm yao.
Twist the lantern in front of you, give a military salute and send a call.
Bai: (excitedly) Comrade Liang Jinshan, on behalf of all the commanders and fighters of the Military Region, I see you here. In the name of the commander of the military region, I order you to take care of the back mountain and the martyrs' cemetery!You are a warrior, you want to fight, you want to be strong, you have to stand up on your own, you have to pick up a bowl and eat!
Backstage singing: The major general opened his eyes slightly when he heard this, looked carefully in a daze, and saw the commander of the year.
Suddenly, his tears rippled, and he hurriedly stood up and saluted, and the sound was as loud as thunder.
Kanayama: (Stands up excitedly.) Loud voice) Commander!Salute!Report to the commander!Revolutionary soldier Liang Jinshan, always obey the party's call!
