Chapter 16 0015 [I Really Knocked Someone Down in Junior High]

After an unknown amount of time, the bus stopped in a small town again. The female conductor yelled at the top of her lungs, "Train station, go to the train station..."

Chen Guiliang pointed out the window and said, "I'm from this town."

"Ancient tourist town?"

Bian Guanyue stuck his head out of the car window and saw an antique archway in front and rows of late Qing Dynasty buildings on the front and side.

Chen Guiliang said: "Although it is an ancient tourist town, it is not well developed... Never mind, I won't speak ill of my hometown, they are also limited by objective conditions."

Bian Guanyue was tired of riding in the car and wanted to chat with someone: "Are you attending junior high school in this town?"

"No, this is the town center school. I went to the township center school," Chen Guiliang explained. "Although the township has been merged into a town, and the township government and police station have been abolished, the township center school still exists. It's even poorer and more remote there. I was the only one in the entire township who got into No. 2 Middle School that year."

"You're the only one who passed the exam?" Bian Guanyue unconsciously became more talkative. "It's really rare. You must have studied very hard."

Chen Guiliang shook his head: "I'm not diligent. I've always loved to play. I went to primary school in the village, and there were only two teachers in the whole school who took turns teaching me."

Bian Guanyue was confused for a moment: "There are only two teachers in the whole school. How often do they recruit students?"

"Three years. If you miss first grade at six, you'll have to wait until nine to start. If you really can't wait, you can just join in," Chen Guiliang laughed. "I'm lucky; I was born at the right age."

Bian Guan Yue couldn't imagine it: "It's just like the mountain village school in TV."

Chen Guiliang recalls his childhood: "It wasn't that bad, actually. It was much better than the real mountains. I was a mischievous kid. I never took notes in class, never did my homework. I was always the one who did the bad things, I even peed in someone else's well. But hey, I always got first place in the school!"

"You are quite proud of yourself." Bian Guanyue despised him for peeing in the well.

Chen Guiliang lamented, "Later, things got worse. When I was in fifth grade, the village school collapsed in the rain. Luckily, it happened on a weekend and no one was crushed to death. All the students in the school had to move to the open-air playground for half a year, using a makeshift shelter to keep out the wind and rain."

"Are the conditions so bad?" asked Bian Guanyue.

Chen Guiliang said, "I persevered on the playground for half a year and was able to go to school in the township early in sixth grade. Although the township was poor, for us rural kids, it was just like a big city. The students living around the township looked down on us rural kids. Haha, actually, they also had rural household registration."

Bian Guanyue suddenly felt that Chen Guiliang was very pitiful.

Chen Guiliang said, "I was often bullied by students from my village. I fought with them almost every day. After six months, my grades dropped significantly, but no one at school dared to mess with me. If I couldn't beat the older students, I would bite them, and if I couldn't bite them, I would hit them with stones."

Bian Guanyue became more and more curious: "What happened next?"

"Then Young and Dangerous became popular, and thugs appeared in the countryside," Chen Guiliang grinned. "I stole a thug's pass and then blocked his hot pot in front of the girls. Guess what this thug did?"

"Did the gangster beat you?" asked Bian Guanyue.

Chen Guiliang said: "More than ten people waited at the school gate to block my way out. A classmate informed me in advance, and I was so scared that I climbed over the wall to escape. They chased me for several miles before I escaped."

Bian Guanyue was surprised and said, "The school doesn't care? The school doesn't have security? How can they let hooligans into the school to play basketball?"

Chen Guiliang said, "We can't even pay the teachers, so how can we afford security? I remember during the junior high school holiday, half of the students refused to pay for supplementary lessons. The head teacher said in an almost pleading tone, 'We haven't been paid for over six months, and we're relying on your tuition fees to survive.'"

It is hard to understand why some teachers cannot get their salaries.

I can't go into detail about this, but it was the same in many places across the country during those years.

"Have you called the police? Were those thugs caught?" Bian Guanyue felt like she was listening to a story.

Chen Guiliang said: "My homeroom teacher helped me call the police. We took a statement, but we couldn't catch the main culprit. A few of the gang leaders fled, and the rest were just underlings. Since they didn't cause any harm, they called their parents and gave them a few words of advice, and that was it. Two months later, a few of the gang leaders returned, and more than a dozen of them, armed with knives, blocked me in the street."

Bian Guanyue felt a little nervous after hearing this and subconsciously clenched his fists: "You ran away again?"

"Nowhere to escape."

Chen Guiliang shook his head:

"Actually, those thugs just wanted to scare me, make me kneel down and beg for mercy. Their machetes were not sharp, so at most they would beat me up again."

"But I was so scared at the time that I really thought they were going to hack me to death. I ran to a roadside fruit stand and grabbed a sharpened machete. I used my schoolbag as a shield in my left hand and chopped them with the machete in my right hand."

"I was outnumbered thirteen at once, and I ended up chasing them and hacking them. My mind went blank, and I didn't even know how to stop. Four of them were sent to the hospital, and one nearly died from excessive blood loss."

Bian Guanyue was shocked and said, "You made up a story to deceive me, didn't you?"

"Haha, I was just kidding you." Chen Guiliang ended the story with a smile.

The more Chen Guiliang said this, the more real Bian Guan Yue felt.

The ending of the story is simple.

It was self-defense and didn't even delay the high school entrance exam.

The relatives of the injured were still demanding compensation, but Chen Guiliang's family didn't give a penny.

Chen Guiliang's father, while working in southern China, was tricked by a fellow villager into partnering with him to subcontract a small project. The fellow villager took the balance and absconded with the money, leaving Chen Guiliang's father with all the unpaid wages.

Those who were owed wages were all fellow villagers, so Chen Guiliang's parents could only pay them back slowly. They were heavily in debt and could not return home for many years.

As soon as he got home, all he heard was people asking for their wages! Ever since that incident, Chen Guiliang had learned a lesson: if you don't want to be bullied, you have to be more ruthless than the bad guys.

From then on, he loved to stand up for the weak and meddle in other people's affairs, and foolishly thought of himself as a hero.

childish!

But hot-blooded.

He chose journalism as his major in college and became an undercover reporter after graduation, all influenced by the stabbing incident in junior high school. He was fearless and thought he was a savior.

Until reality taught him lesson after lesson.

The blood is not cold, the dream is no longer there.

The bus started again without warning, and the female conductor started arguing with the passengers again.

When the car passed a stone arch bridge, Chen Guiliang looked at the fruit stall at the bridgehead and said, "Oh, the fruit vendor is still there."

Bian Guanyue took a closer look and asked, "Did you take the machete from him?"

Chen Guiliang boasted, "I chased a group of thugs with my own knife, slashing them from one end of the bridge to the other."

This story is childish when told to adults.

It's just right for telling high school students.

Bian Guanyue remembered it clearly and thought that Chen Guiliang had a legendary quality.

There is another story about Chen Guiliang.

It is too dark and not suitable for telling to girls, and it may easily cause the book to be 404.

Around 2000, social security was in such chaos.

Growing up in such an environment without any parental guidance, it would be strange if Chen Guiliang's personality was not extreme.

Fortunately, he is now a Buddhist.

"Junior high school is so chaotic, how did you get into No. 2 Middle School?" Bian Guanyue became more and more curious about Chen Guiliang.

Chen Guiliang said: "Junior high school knowledge is too simple. You can just listen to the lectures normally and memorize politics and history after class. On my high school entrance exam, I only lost a few points in Chinese, math and English. I got full marks in all other subjects."

Bian Guanyue couldn't help but roll her eyes.

So annoying!

Chen Guiliang winked and said, "Have you noticed that you've become more talkative?"

Bian Guanyue was stunned for a moment, then returned to his cold expression, turned his face towards the car window and said nothing.

Chen Guiliang smiled and said, "That's right, I just like your cold look."

Bian Guanyue said angrily: "Give me back my MP3!"

"I was wrong." Chen Guiliang apologized sincerely.

"Humph!"

Bian Guanyue turned her face towards the car window again, leaving only the back of her head visible to Chen Guiliang.

Well, and a ponytail.

Chen Guiliang really wanted to grab the ponytail to try out the feel.

Bian Guanyue was thinking in her heart: This person is really annoying, even more annoying than Li Jun!
Chen Guiliang continued to pull: "Okay, smile. Have you forgotten all your troubles now?"

Upon hearing this, Bian Guanyue turned around and looked at him suspiciously.

Could it be that this guy said so much just to make me happy and forget what happened today?

It seems that I am no longer entangled.

Chen Guiliang smiled and said, "There's nothing insurmountable. I could pull myself out of that quagmire alive and well. What's so sad about your little thing? Don't tell me it's family-related. I haven't seen my parents in seven years, and I still live a carefree and happy life every day."

Bian Guanyue's curiosity was piqued again: "How come you haven't seen your parents for seven years?"

"But I can't be the only one telling it, you have to exchange your own story too." Chen Guiliang's true intention was revealed. This was his real purpose.

As long as the other party is willing to tell a secret, he will blow a hole in the fortress of his heart.

It is even possible to capture it directly!
Bian Guanyue hesitated, she didn't like talking about those things.
