Chapter 227 Courage

Hearing that Yu Fan crossed the iron cable suspension bridge, Chang Da, the director of the county party committee office, also expressed his strong opposition. The county party secretary personally took this risk, which was not worth it to him. Besides, it's night now. Although there are torches on both sides, it is also very dangerous, but Yu Fan's attitude is very Resolutely, he first proposed to set up a party member leader in the whole county. An old man in his seventies walked back and forth on the bridge for three years, but he, the county party secretary, didn't even have the courage to go there. He was still a county party secretary,

Yu Fan also categorically refused Chang Da's request to go together. Now that the standing committee members of the county have gone back, it is impossible that there is not even a responsible person here. Although there are not many villagers here, the coordination of the memorial service still needs to be presided over. Although the stage of the memorial service is now built. I'm up, but how to arrange it? I'm afraid no one is more familiar than Changda.

Although the torches on both sides illuminate the whole mountain stream, in the dark, in the night, the cable bridge is like a python lying between the two peaks, winding around under the mountain wind, shaking back and forth with a harsh sound. Looking at the bottomless mountain stream under the bridge, Yu Fan felt a burst of palpitations, but walked forward. Bi Jun raised his legs and walked up without hesitation, which made the only trace of worry in Yu Fan's heart also disappear.

Someone said that if you walk high, it's better not to look down. Yu Fan is like this now. His eyes are looking straight ahead. In order to distract himself, he also asked Bi Jun with a smile, "This bridge is really strong. I can still trust your promise."

Because of holding a torch, Bi Jun couldn't turn back when he spoke. "Yes, Secretary Yu, this bridge has a history of more than 50 years here, and it has always been very strong."

Fifty years, Yu Fan's heart trembled when he heard it. Damn it, how could he ask him this? This Bi Jun is really an honest man. He even said so. Yu Fan couldn't help smiling bitterly, but regretted coming up with him. I'm afraid that even the bridge built with steel and cement dare not say that he has a service life of 50 years. Well, thanks to what he said for sure,

Looking back at the three people behind, although Lu Da said he was extremely heroic, if he really came up, his pace would not be much better than that of a child, let alone the two people behind him. At this look, Yu Fan was a little more courageous, and he seemed to be much braver than them.

But then again, people who have not walked the cable bridge will not understand this fear, just like people walking on a rope, especially when there is wind, in fact, you will find that your life is like a leaf floating in the sky, not under your control at all, Yu Fan I'm glad that I'm walking behind Bi Jun. If someone takes you like this in front of me, your footsteps will involuntarily speed up.

The people opposite soon found someone coming on the cable suspension bridge, and the exclamations kept ringing. Something happened to the white genius of the suspension bridge, and there were still people walking on it at night, so they couldn't help screaming loudly. Yu Fan's heart trembled when he heard the huge echo, but fortunately there was Under the leadership of Bi Jun, everyone finally walked most of the road without danger. Just as they were slowly approaching the opposite side, Bi Jun, who led in front of him, suddenly stood up, so that Yu Fan, who followed behind, almost bumped into him.

"That's where Mr. Xu fell down." Before Yu Fan could speak, Bi Jun turned around and pointed to the outer edge of the iron cable bridge and looked at him. Yu Fan's heart trembled when he heard it. The old man was always worthy of respect. He spent three years and his life telling future generations what a real teacher was, and his height was always beyond the reach of the world.

A short stay made the three people behind catch up. Bi Jun also quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. This is the first time Yu Fan has seen this big man cry for many times today. When the county party committee asked him to allocate funds to build a school for the children in the mountains, the big man did not shed a drop of tears, but today he It seems to pour out all his tears,

It can be seen that the relationship between Bi Jun and Mr. Xu is very good. At the beginning, when Bi Jun was desperate, Mr. Xu resolutely agreed to stay in Niujiao Village to teach, and he didn't get a penny's salary. Instead, he posted a lot of it. In this way, he stayed for three years. For an old man, three years was actually a long time. ,

Because of this, Bi Jun's guilt for the old man is indescribable. Since then, this mountain man, who has never been married all his life, has made a forgetful friendship with this 70-year-old man. For Bi Jun, Xu Lao is like his own father. If he hadn't taught those children here. Maybe Mr. Xu has been living in the provincial capital and enjoying his old age.

I don't know how to comfort Bi Jun. Yu Fan just sighed and patted him on the shoulder, but he heard Bi Jun whisper, "Secretary Yu, pay attention here. The rope next to it is broken."

Yu Fan's heart trembled when he heard this. Only then did he find that there was indeed a rope broken in the place that Bi Jun just pointed to was now. It seemed that Mr. Xu fell from this place at that time. He pointed to the place where the rope was broken and waved back. Everyone also slowly leaned to the other side,

Someone on the other side of the bridge has begun to light up several people with torches. When a few people walk to the bridge, someone begins to take what several people are carrying in their hands. Bi Jun often comes and goes in this area. Almost everyone knows him, and he also found the village head secretary in each village here very smoothly and took them. In front of Yu Fan,

After listening to the introduction of the army, Yu Fan also knew that the villagers of the seven villages in the surrounding mountains had basically come, and these people brought by Bi Jun were also newly elected village cadres in each village. They were the most prestigious villagers in each village. They shook hands with them one by one. Yu Fan said affectionately, "Comrades, thank you for your hard work. Such a cold day. It's really difficult for everyone to stay on the mountain. On behalf of the county, I would like to express my condolences to you.

Knowing that Yu Fan is the leader of the county, these villagers also look at each other in front of each other. It is the first time I have seen such a young leader, let alone the secretary of the county party committee. Most of them have lived in the mountains all their lives. Not to mention the leaders of the county, even the leaders in the countryside have not seen many of them. Of course , except for Bi Jun, the deputy head of the township,

Behind Yu Fan, Lu Da, Cui Hanming and Huang Lin also began to distribute food to everyone. Now there is no difference between the director of the public security bureau, the secretary and the head of the township. These people know nothing about what kind of officials they are. They only know that the secretary and village chief in their village respects these people and even take them with them. The attitude towards several people is also very friendly,

Yu Fan also took Bi Jun to distribute food to these people in person. The temperature in the mountains varies greatly between day and night, and the villagers only had a bonfire around them to warm up. Some women were still holding the sleeping children in their arms, and some children still had tears on their faces, which made Yu Fan also A burst of sadness,

There is no way to go on like this. Yu Fan frowned and looked at the secretary and village head of several villages behind him and sighed, "Can you persuade everyone to go back first? In such cold weather, if the children catch a cold tomorrow, it will be more troublesome."

After listening to his words, these people also looked at each other, and then looked at Yu Fan and shook his head. One of them said with a sad face, "Secretary Yu, you may not know that Mr. Xu is not only the teacher of our children, but also the teacher of our people. Many of us have listened to Mr. Xu's class. "."

Yu Fan was stunned when he heard this kind of thing. He couldn't help looking at Bi Jun beside him. Bi Jun also nodded and said, "Secretary Yu, what they said is the truth. It's not only them, but also I have also heard Mr. Xu's class. Some of us here used to work outside all year round, but they can't read in the city. It's often inconvenient, and I don't even know what's going on when I'm bullied. Therefore, Mr. Xu also specially taught these people for a period of time, so that they can at least understand some commonly used words.

Yu Fan also sighed and nodded slightly after listening to it, and the others also said at this time: "That is, one is to be a teacher and a father for life. Some of what we have learned is given to us by Mr. Xu. Today, if we don't follow the customs of the death of our relatives to keep a vigil for him, we will spend our whole life. It's all uneasy."

Since this is the case, Yu Fan has no choice. Yes, we can't disrespect other people's customs. Besides, Mr. Xu is indeed worthy of everyone's respect, but what should there be so many women and children do? Adults can still bear it. How can they suffer this kind of suffering?

There is really nothing we can do. Yu Fan can only ask everyone to increase the number of bonfires. Children and women rely on the bonfire. Recently, other people tightly surround the bonfire and warm each other. In this way, Yu Fan also sat closely with everyone and asked about the situation of each village from time to time, but the answer he got also made his heart sink. It's heavy,

During this period, the construction of roads in Dapu County, the investment attraction, and even the rural party building work proposed by himself were carried out enthusiastically, which made him more or less proud, while the actual living conditions of these villagers living in the mountains poured cold water on him, which made him unable to help There is also a sense of mission and a sense of responsibility. The economic construction of Dapu County must be accelerated, and the living standards of the people must be improved. There is still a long way to go.
