Chapter 104 The whimsical broken babies

"Let me go, there are too many people here, right?"

Several educated youths were shocked when they saw a movie screening in a rural area for the first time.

"Normally, apart from watching movies, there are almost no other entertainment activities in rural areas now." Wang Manyin understood this very well and explained.

At this time, the projectionist was adjusting the lens next to the machine. Some naughty kids took the opportunity to stretch out their little hands and change their hand shapes on the screen in front of the beam, causing them to be scolded.

Seeing that the viewing seats in front were all occupied, Wang Manyin thought that there might be no one behind the screen, so he took Orchid and changed seats.

I never thought that the back of the screen was also dark and full of human heads.

Yes, the two of them stopped moving.

People from other villages are constantly rushing here. If we wait for a while, there will probably be no room on the other side.

They did not wait for too long, and the projectionist's voice rang out from the loudspeaker: "Dear members of the Shige Festival Commune, tonight we will show a running film, and we will show two communes. There may be a pause in the middle. Please be patient.

Tolerance..."

This is also a basic operation.

Over there, Wang Qiusheng and Wang Fuchang also took out their clothes. After several incidents, they all knew that Dahuang was very good at finding people and things.

He quickly put on his cotton trousers and a cotton-padded jacket and opened the kiln door: "What's going on? What's going on?"

Wang Manyin also said with some regret: "I saw them while watching a movie and said a few words to a few children. Then they left, saying they were going back to find adults. If I had known this, I should have kept them

By your side."

After a set of procedures is completed, the real movie begins - "War in the South and the North".

Only then did Zhou Wende realize that he had aroused public outrage. He immediately did not dare to continue reading from the manuscript and handed over the microphone.

"The above is my personal summary of the work of Shige Festival Village last year..."

"Go down, we want to watch a movie!!"

The spring night is thick.

"These three broken boys are so brave that they were almost arrested as bad guys..."

In the middle of the night, they were frightened.

Wang Manyin only read the beginning and felt a little uncomfortable.

When the adults of the three families saw their children, they became very angry and beat them severely.

"Uncle Manyin!"

While watching the war scene, I suddenly felt someone pulling on my clothes.

As a result, Zhou Wende changed his words: "Next, I will introduce to you the next work plan and focus of Shige Festival Village in four aspects. First of all, the first point..."

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, there were still many people looking around.

But seeing Lanhua staring at the screen, he couldn't leave.

"Who, who did this? Come on, catch him!" Zhou Wende suddenly became angry. If he missed it by half a meter, the ginger stone would hit his head.

The so-called additional films are short films that are shown before and after the main film. The content is generally documentaries reflecting economic and cultural construction, news, or introduction to popular science knowledge.

When I went there, Wang Manyin was completely speechless: Are you going to talk about four more aspects? This man is really addicted to talking.

"What, you guys came back without finding the child?" Wang Manyin asked speechlessly, really not knowing what to say.

"I know, I know," the three broken boys didn't answer the question at all. After looking at each other, they squeezed into the crowd and disappeared.

After Dahuang smelled his clothes, he ran wildly along the dirt road in the direction of the Stone Ge Festival. A group of people carrying angry wind lanterns followed closely behind him.

Along the way, everyone still seemed very energetic and talked about the plot of the movie with gusto.

They were relieved to hear that the children were found.

"Man Yin, hurry up and bring Da Huang to find someone... Mao Dan, Donkey Dan, and my Laixi. The three of them can't be found. They must have gotten lost after the movie." Wang Yanqiang explained anxiously.

Everyone shook their heads... then they remembered that they didn't see Wang Junxiang when they were looking for the child just now.

As the film got to the point, the projectionist began to explain in the original Loess Plateau dialect.

After the adults left, a few guys quietly appeared, hoping to find some shell casings and bullets under the screen to sell for money. As a result, the patrolling militiamen were alerted.

Wang Manyin was about to fall asleep in a daze when he was awakened by the sound of rhubarb, and then heard someone shouting his name outside the cave dwelling.

Judging from the accent, you can tell that it is the educated youth who are making trouble, and ordinary farmers are not so bold.

The projectionist got impatient and took the microphone and immediately announced: "Tonight the movie officially starts. We will show an extra film for everyone to enjoy."

But this is not a meeting after all, and the people watching the movie are not used to him. Let Zhou Wende talk loudly at the top, and everyone below is talking about their own things.

Such detailed spoilers would definitely be beaten if exposed to future generations.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After the projectionist finished explaining, Zhou Wende, the party secretary of Shigejie Village, picked up the microphone and began to speak.

"Zhao Yumin led the people to cut off the fuse of the explosive, successfully saved the dam, and also saved the lives and property of the people downstream, completely shattering the enemy's conspiracy..."

As soon as I walked halfway, I saw light coming from the opposite side, mixed with the sound of discussion.

However, in this era, it is also a normal operation. Because many farmers cannot understand Mandarin and cannot understand certain plots, projectionists are required to explain.

After receiving the order, several young men in charge of watching the scene at the Shige Festival had no choice but to look for it. Unfortunately, it was so dark and full of human heads that they could not find it.

However, there were constant shouts from the crowd: "Get down quickly, or you will be thrown away!"

There are at least one or two thousand people in the whole wheat field, and they will get lost if they are not careful.

After Wang Yanqiang finished explaining, he quickly took out his children's clothes.

"Who's in front? I'm Wang Lianshun from Guan Village," Wang Lianshun shouted at the top of his lungs.

Wang Manyin didn't pay attention and continued to watch the movie.

Turning around, he saw Mao Dan standing behind him, followed by Wang Junxiang's eldest son Lu Dan and Wang Yanqiang's family's Laixi.

"Tonight's movie ends here..." Along with the projectionist's voice, the entire wheat field became chaotic, and the voices of adults calling their children could be heard from time to time.

Now there are no cars or motorcycles, so we have to rely on people riding bicycles to hand over things back and forth. If there is a slight delay in the middle, the screening time will be out of sync.

On the contrary, Wang Junxiang's mother-in-law stared at the crowd for a few times and couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Yanqiang, Junxiang didn't come back with you?"

Wang Manyin and Lanhua followed the crowd and squeezed out of the wheat field, and soon joined several people from the Jar Village, taking advantage of the starlight to set foot on their way home.

"Lianshun, I am the third child of Shigejie Village. Did your village child lose it? I brought it back to you." There was also a loud response from the other side.

This man spoke in a long-winded way, probably reading from a manuscript. He first talked about the achievements of Xia Shige Festival Village in the past year, and then expressed his determination.

This is also an old film that has remained popular since it was shot in the 1950s.

Wang Manyin couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, and finally knew why they asked him about the shell casings.

These days, although there is no child stealing, I am afraid of encountering other unexpected situations.

Even so, people still enjoyed watching it. Especially when it came to the fiery scenes, people watching the movie kept cheering.

"It's okay, we know where the adults are. Brother Man Yin, did my dad say that the bullet casings in the movie are made of pure copper?" Wang Laixi asked curiously.

After listening to Lao San's story, everyone finally knew why they didn't return to the village.

It turns out that a few broken kids saw bullets and shell casings falling all over the floor during the battle in the movie, and they immediately became interested.

"Junxiang, I didn't see anyone. Did any of you see Junxiang just now?" Wang Yanqiang asked doubtfully.

Such a scene made Wang Manyin feel extremely warm and nostalgic.

The adults in the three families all made the same mistake, thinking that the child had gone with someone else.

Nowadays, movie reels are very scarce, and a movie often has to change scenes several times at night and be played in different villages.

Wang Manyin didn't know how the three broken children could ask such weird questions, so he nodded and said: "Such a big cannon shell weighs at least eight or nine kilograms, and it is made of good copper material and can be sold for several yuan.

What are you asking about?"

"Woof woof..." At this time, Dahuang also barked wildly.

The stars overhead cast a clear light, and frogs croaked in the Dongla River.

"What's wrong? Why don't you three little kids watch a movie properly? Why are you running around here? Don't wait until you can't find the adults." Wang Manyin hurriedly warned.

"This is the heroic warriors about to seize Motian Ridge..."

Again, he was accustomed to seeing the storms of film entertainment in later generations, and he always felt that the performances of these actors on the screen were somewhat stereotyped.

But slowly, Wang Manyin also got involved.

"The shell shell is also made of pure copper, isn't it worth a lot of money?" The other party asked again.

"Okay, just find the person, don't fight." Wang Lianshun stopped the actions of the three adults, expressed his gratitude to several people in Shigejie Village again, and led the team back.

Wang Manyin felt that the other party was very similar to the captain of the first team of Guan Village. He should like to be in the limelight in public. He picked up the microphone and was reluctant to put it down. He talked a lot, but there was no focus.

With the narrator's explanation, the whole movie ends.
