Chapter 172 "Years in the Human World"

Chapter 173 "Ten Years in the Human World"

Just as Fu Wen felt her eyes stinging, Shen Can's singing voice entered her ears:

"Light, who lit the candle to illuminate the maze set up by time? Light, shifting the positions of light and darkness, flows freely."

In the video, a middle-aged man strikes a match and lights a cigarette in his hand.

He prefers to be called "sir".

Beside the gentleman, the founding team of immortals was watching him, seemingly waiting for him to make a decision.

Screen switch.

The gentleman, wearing an overcoat, stood on the hilltop, gazing up at the dim and murky sky.

Although the sky was still mostly overcast, the bright areas were exceptionally dazzling.

"Look, where someone stood, the chessboard is riddled with holes; look, what is the true and false before us? What does falsehood matter?"

The screen changes.

On the streets of Shanghai, reactionary students dressed in black carried out a brutal attack, with axes, clubs, and machetes raining down on them.

After the tragedy, the streets were littered with corpses, and the banners and signs used by the students during their march were scattered everywhere.

"They're all just students."

Fu Wen's eyes were filled with water, and he felt an urge to cry.

How much did my ancestors sacrifice to bring about the China we have today?

Shen Can's singing voice is still playing in my headphones. You can clearly hear the emotions of the whole song rising, and Shen Can's singing voice gives people a sense of power and drama.

There are no flashy techniques in the songs, only stories.

"With a burning, unyielding heart, I walked towards the most forgiving execution ground; though broken and shattered, the sound echoed hollowly."

The teacher from his student days makes another appearance.

During a torrential downpour in Changsha, the man stepped into the mud and ran through the wind and rain with his book box in his arms. He saw a little girl crying in the rain. Her mother was calling out to passersby to buy her. And there was more than one child like her.

The old man stared blankly at the street scene, while pedestrians hurried by.

This scene shocked the gentleman.

"The city is filled with sorrow and bloodshed, all for the sake of saving the common people," Fu Wen murmured hoarsely.

At that time, people did not know that although the gentleman's step had stepped into the mire of history, it had also led him to a bright future.

"In the end, I was actually grateful that the sunset still lingered on me; there was no time to tell the story, so many twists and turns."

The military flag appears in the video.

In the black and white image, a flag embroidered with a hammer and sickle flutters in the wind, first one flag, then the entire mountainside is filled with people waving flags.

Just then, the words spoken by the gentleman in the TV series came to mind: "A single spark can start a prairie fire."

Fu Wen froze instantly, goosebumps erupting all over his body.

The next second, Shen Can's singing voice came through, but the singing style was completely different; it was a Peking opera style.

"The most rugged peaks have allowed you and me to be wild."

The clear moonlight over the sea and the full moon, reflected in the cup.

The video shows a raging fire, as if it wants to burn down the old world and start a new one.

After the fire, in the deep mountains, the two teams met victoriously, and the gentleman and the soldier's father held hands tightly.

"There are the most proud and solitary snow-capped mountains, which have silently listened to our chanting."

The scenes that amaze the world are nothing more than ordinary.

The video content for this lyric is divided into two parts.

When Shen Can sang about the "snow mountain," a ragged army was struggling to climb the snow mountain; some of them were even wearing only a single layer of clothing, shorts, and straw sandals.

The video then switched to footage of the army crossing the grasslands.

Despite the torrential rain, they remained optimistic, singing together and wading hand in hand through the swamp, with the gentleman among them.

"The scenes that amaze the world are nothing special."

"So fitting, so very fitting."

boom!!

Fu Wen felt as if something exploded in his heart, and then his whole body trembled, and he couldn't help but want to cry.

She hadn't read the Daomu Biji novels, but felt that the lyrics were incredibly fitting for this context.

For the sake of sacrifice and ambition, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky!

It was this group of people who paved the way for a bright future 70 years ago.

Despite being in the mud, they had great love in their hearts.

The heroic deeds of the martyrs, the fitting lyrics, Shen Can's opera-style singing, and the passionate yet tear-jerking emotions—all these gave Fu Wen a feeling of absolute perfection!

The melody of section B of "Between a Century" is similar to that of section A, only the lyrics are different.

In the blink of an eye, Fu Wen heard the end of the song.

Prior to this, in the video footage, she saw the line, "Suddenly, news came that a tiger had been subdued in the human world, and tears immediately poured down like rain," indicating that her husband's wife had been brutally murdered by the enemy.

I also saw the Luding Bridge, where our ancestors braved gunfire to climb the iron chain bridge.

There was also a spirited young man who died forever on the Korean battlefield. He was the son of Mr. [Name], and Mr. [Name] wept bitterly.

The song ends with Shen Can's Peking Opera-style vocals.

"There is the most solitary snow-capped mountain, which has silently listened to our chanting."

The scenes that amaze the world are nothing special.

Even the most delicate handwriting has yellowed with the passing of memory, and I now begin the next chapter.

The singing was interspersed with the man's conversation with others, and red subtitles appeared in the video.

Mr.: "What I like most is when people call me 'sir'."

A gentle female voice asked, "Will you come back?"

The man said firmly, "We'll come back."

The video freezes on the man climbing the Great Wall alone as the red sun rises.

Looking at the huge red sun, Fu Wen thought of a poem.

"The long night makes it hard to see the sky over the land of China; for a hundred years, monsters have been dancing wildly, and five hundred million people have not been able to reunite."

"The rooster crows, and the world is bathed in light; joyous music fills the land; the poet's inspiration is beyond compare."

—"Huanxi Sha: In Response to Mr. Liu Yazi"

It was written by the gentleman.

She suddenly realized: "So that's where Shen Can got the song title 'A Hundred Years of Human Life' from."

"Waaaaah————"

The next second, Fu Wen burst into tears, which then turned into a loud wail.

The emotions that had been suppressed for so long finally erupted.

When Fu Wen's colleagues noticed his unusual behavior, they quickly gathered around him.

"Sister Wen, what's wrong?"

"Why are you suddenly crying?"

A female colleague patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, a male colleague handed her a tissue, and some people noticed the song video on the computer screen, but remained silent.

At this moment, a sharp-dressed male lawyer sneered and said sarcastically, "It's one thing to slack off at work, but you even made yourself cry. Sigh, what a mess this is—oh, let me see, it's Shen Can's new song. I advise you to listen to less of his songs. He's stubborn, conservative, and narrow-minded. His songs aren't worth listening to."

"What makes you say he's like a frog in a well, with a limited perspective?"

Fu Wen stopped crying, stood up angrily from the chair, like a mother cat protecting her kittens.

This colleague surnamed Zhang is a well-known Westernizer in the company. He always quotes Aristotle or some other Western sages, advocating that all aspects of China should be integrated with Western civilization, yearning for democracy and freedom, and advocating for the abolition of the death penalty.

Attorney Zhang sneered: "America is a beacon of civilization. We should learn from advanced civilizations. Isn't someone as xenophobic as Shen Can just ignorant and narrow-minded? I'm too lazy to argue with you. You should keep your job first."

Fu Wen gritted his teeth, glared at Attorney Zhang, and his temper exploded instantly.

"No matter what, he's still better than you being a dog. You keep shouting 'abolish the death penalty,' but if someone killed your whole family, would you still support 'abolish the death penalty'?"

"Don't try to argue with me," Attorney Zhang said with a gloomy face.

At that moment, the supervisor heard the commotion and came out of his private office.

"What's all the noise about? Go do what you're supposed to do."

Attorney Zhang pointed at Fu Wen: "She's slacking off at work."

The supervisor glanced at Fu Wen's computer screen, his tone suddenly softening: "Ahem—be careful next time, listen to music during your break."

"Okay." Fu Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she noticed that her supervisor's eyes were also red.

As far as she knew, the supervisor was also a fan of Shen Can.

Could it be that the supervisor was listening to Shen Can's new song just now?

An old man cried while listening to Shen Can's song?

However, it must be said that this song is indeed very powerful.

Attorney Zhang noticed it too, his expression changed slightly, and he smiled: "Manager, your eyes... You've been so busy with company affairs lately, have you been working too hard? You need to take care of yourself. You're our backbone, we can't do without you."

Fu Wen looked at Attorney Zhang's fawning manner and curled his lip.

Suckling up to superiors and bullying subordinates, isn't that just being a dog?

After his colleagues left, Fu Wen sat back down in his chair and glanced at the comments section before closing the webpage.

In the comment section, which already has 1001 comments, most of the comments are very similar.

Those were four words: "No one is allowed to kneel!"
