Chapter 198 196. Kindness does not necessarily lead to good rewards

In the gorgeous sunset, there are already a few stars hanging in the clear sky. The spring breeze blows leisurely, and the smell of green grass mixes with the coolness brought by the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

The white sheep grazed leisurely in the grassland, and the yaks snorted and looked at the sunset on the horizon.

Chen Li'an, a tall horse, waved his riding whip gently. Li Dabai, who was sitting in front, raised his face and felt the evening breeze, enjoying this moment very much, as if he was isolated from the rest of the world.

Chen Li'an watched the sunset about to fall into the valley, and began to increase his speed and drive the sheep and cattle by shouting the slogans Duoji taught him.

Herding is now Chen Li'an's part-time job after filming. He just goes out to play, and learning how to herd will help him fit the role better.

At this time, Li Dabai was able to sit firmly on the horse, leaning slightly on Chen Li'an's chest. He listened to his loud shouts and watched the sheep obediently gather together under Chen Li'an's driving, heading home. direction moves slowly.

While Li Dabai was immersed in the moment, Chen Li'an's melodious singing suddenly came to his ears.

In that far away place, there is a good girl. When people walk past her tent, they always look back with nostalgia.

I would like to wander on the grassland and herd sheep for her.

I would like to be a little lamb and follow her. I would like her to take a whip and hit me lightly every day.

Li Dabai felt an unspeakable emotion in her heart at this moment, and sweet panic occupied her entire heart. She turned to look at Chen Li'an's bright black eyes, and she knew that she was completely in love with this man at this moment.

The heartbeat in a long life is only for a moment, but it is unforgettable enough.

Before nightfall completely fell, Chen Li'an drove the cattle and sheep back. After jumping off the horse vigorously, he reached out to catch Li Dabai who was about to jump off, and caught her firmly and put her on the ground.

Li Dabai looked at Chen Li'an's dark face and felt a primitive wildness in his body. The strong male aura made her a little obsessed.

On the small building not far behind them, Mr. Zhou and Ning Jing stood in front of the balcony drinking tea and watching the scene quietly.

"Aren't you angry?" Ning Jing took a sip of the butter tea and asked Mr. Zhou who looked calm.

Mr. Zhou put the cup on the railing and said nonchalantly: "There's nothing to be angry about. Just come back in the evening."

Ning Jing was startled and glanced at Mr. Zhou's chest and said, "You are quite open-minded."

What to do if you don't open up? It would be good if you can tighten Chen Li'an's belt, but don't fantasize about locking his heart.

After a while, Chen Li'an ran upstairs and saw Mr. Zhou and Ning Jing drinking tea together. He also went over to pick up Mr. Zhou's tea cup and took a sip.

"Who made it? It tastes good." Chen Li'an put down the cup and said.

Mr. Zhou reached out and wiped the corners of Chen Li'an's mouth, and said with a smile: "I followed suit. You like to make another drink for me at night."

Chen Li'an nodded, not noticing that Li Dabai, who had followed him up, silently returned to his room while holding his mouth.

Seeing the sweet interaction between Chen Li'an and Mr. Zhou, Ning Jing felt that the tea in her hand was no longer fragrant at all, so she took the cup and left. She went back and went to bed early, otherwise she would be so noisy that she couldn't sleep again.

At night, Li Dabai lay in bed and stared at the ceiling silently. The scene of the afternoon would always appear in her mind.

That sweet feeling is always accompanied by a hint of bitterness after the aftertaste. Li Dabai silently turned over and sighed silently in the darkness.

Mr. Zhou in another room is currently competing with a pile of newspapers. In tomorrow's scene, the ingenious Xueer can fold the newspapers into a kite, but Mr. Zhou cannot.

Chen Li'an looked at the scrap newspapers on the ground and said, "The prop teacher will help you fold it. You just need to learn how to do it."

"I think it's quite fun. Just practice." Mr. Zhou looked up at him and said with a smile, "Maybe I can make kites for my children in the future."

Chen Li'an suspected that Young Master Zhou was targeting him, but considering that her personality didn't seem like someone who liked children, he didn't take it to heart.

In the afternoon of the next day, Xueer, dressed in red, sat on the grass beside the river on the grassland and deftly folded the newspapers brought by Jones into a kite. Gaga looked at her with admiration.

But the content in the newspaper made people feel heavy. The photos of Jiangguo Company's invasion of Jincheng, burning, killing and looting were so eye-catching. (It’s a typo on purpose...don’t complain.)

Xueer has very skillful hands and a pure mind. When she looked at the foreigners in military uniforms in the newspaper, she didn’t know what the specific content was. She just wanted to make a kite for Gaga.

Sanger and Jones stood aside with strings in their hands, waiting for Cher to fold the kite.

Jones took the kite folded by Xueer and greeted Gaga to take the kite and fly it together. The two of them laughed very happily.

Sanger was lying on the grass and looking at the sky. Xueer sat next to him and looked at Hua Ga Ga, with a happy smile on his face.

Sanger turned his head and looked at Xueer's side face, with a smile on his rough face. He liked this woman, but he didn't dare to express his love.

Gaga's mother passed away just a few years ago. Sanger didn't know how to tell Gaga. He didn't know if Cher would accept him or if Cher would think that he was taking advantage of her.

Xueer likes the life here, it is simple and peaceful, there is no ruthless father who wants to push her to sacrifice, everything is so pure, and there are people she likes.

The eyes of Xueer and Sanger collided slightly, and after a brief touch, they separated with shame.

This kind of happy picture is particularly touching, everything is so innocent, as if it is the most beautiful thing in the world.

A camera not far away recorded this scene completely. At this moment, everyone in the crew seemed to have forgotten that they were filming an anti-war movie.

How could such a beautiful scene be connected with a cruel war?

Feng Xiaoning soon stopped and packed up his things to prepare for the transition. Mr. Zhou and Chen Li'an walked side by side and said with some melancholy: "The more beautiful something is, the more cruel it is to destroy it. I don't know how to act in the subsequent scenes." .”

Chen Li'an bit a piece of grass in his mouth. The taste of grass in his mouth was a bit astringent but also a little sweet. He looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance and said: "Only strong contrast will make people unforgettable. That period of history itself is cruel. We Just trying to recreate it on camera can’t even achieve one thousand percent of its cruelty.”

The first half of the movie was innocent and beautiful, and it was shot very quickly. After the transition, Chen Li'an and Ning Jing had their first rivalry scene in the movie.

Danzhu, who was wearing a pure white dress, looked at Sanger from the horse and said, "Come hunting with me tomorrow."

Danzhu is the leader's daughter and is a noble lady. Sangge cannot refuse such an order.

The next day Sanger came to the hunting ground, but when everyone was hunting, Sanger didn't fire a shot.

Danzhu looked at this taciturn man with curiosity in her heart. She knew that Sanger was a warrior, no worse than those noble sons, or even much better.

"Why don't you hunt?"

Sanger shook his head and looked at the shotgun in his hand and said, "I don't kill anything except wild wolves."

Such words caused ridicule from those around him, and Danzhu also laughed, but he did not mean to look down on Sanger, but instead recognized his character even more.

It's just that her appreciation will not make Sangge tempted at all. He has Xue'er in his heart. Even if Danzhu is the daughter of the leader, he can't let Sangge take another look.

But soon a lone wild wolf appeared on the grassland. Everyone looked at Sanger, wanting to see if his marksmanship and bravery were just words.

Sanger raised his shotgun and looked at the non-threatening wild wolf without firing, and finally just watched it walk into the depths of the grassland.

They don't kill only wild wolves, but now they don't even kill wild wolves that are not a threat. In Danzhu's eyes, Sanger's behavior is neither cowardly nor bragging, but a kind of tolerance and kindness.

After finishing this scene, Chen Li'an put down the shotgun in his hand and couldn't help but think about whether Sanger's character was good or not. In the movie, the colonel Sanger saved was a wild wolf.

Although he was no threat at the time, he later brought carnage and war to the land.

Chen Li'an does not approve of such behavior deep down in his heart, but from the perspective of Sanger, his choice seems to be right.

From the perspective of God, Chen Li'an naturally believes that Sanger's kindness is stupid. Your kindness and help will not be rewarded, it will only make those enemies look down on you even more, and then raise their rifles against you.

Just like Gallic Chicken's help to Brother Ni's illegal immigrants, the rewards he got were simply wonderful. Blind kindness is useless.

Not only the Gallic Chicken, but also many places have the same ending. In the thousands of years of human history, such things have happened one after another, but everyone naively believes that their kindness will be rewarded beautifully.

Kindness will be rewarded, but only if it is kindness to your friends and not to your enemies.

Soon Sanger's kindness was "rewarded" and the colonel returned with the army.

He held the hada to greet his friend, but the colonel on the horse looked at him and silently pointed the rifle in his hand at him, using bullets to tell Sanger that he was not a friend but an enemy.

All the tribesmen who came with Sanger were shot dead by enemy bullets. Sanger looked at all this in disbelief, looked at the cruel and cold-blooded colonel on the horse, and looked at standing with the colonel, and he also collapsed. yelled Jones.

The war has begun. Kindness cannot drive away the traitors, but kindness will be exploited by the traitors.

After the war scenes began, the entire crew became busy. They were no longer as peaceful as before. Everyone was working intensively in a depressed state.

It seems that everyone wants to finish filming this scene quickly and cannot bear to see such a beautiful thing destroyed.

Chen Li'an also gradually became silent. Jones and the colonel would always hide during the filming breaks, as if they felt ashamed to see others.

During the filming, Chen Li'an and others looked at them with hostility and hatred in their eyes after entering the scene. Although they knew it was fake, they could not help but feel it in their hearts.

The war scenes changed many scenes. When Chen Li'an and Jones came to the previous temple again, the colonel and Jones were silent.

In this scene, the colonel wants to tear down the murals in the temple and take them away, so as to bring such magnificent art to a more civilized society.

Jones strongly opposed it, but he was a soldier and could only follow orders. He couldn't understand why he should impose his own civilization on other people's homes.

After the filming of this scene, Jones took the initiative to find Chen Li'an and sat in front of him and said: "War is the plunder of civilization. I thought of the cultural relics that were brought back to Western museums, and suddenly I felt very ridiculous. In your Chinese language, is it called nothing? The more you want something, the more you act shamelessly!”

Chen Li'an looked at Jones and couldn't help but untie the wine bag with Erguotou on his waist and handed it to him and said: "Those are already history. No one can take anything away from us now, but there are still other places. Being robbed is like being trapped in a strange loop of history.”

Jones took a sip of wine, his face turned red due to the spiciness of Erguotou, and he was silent for a long time.

The filming is still going on, and Chen Li'an and Mr. Zhou are about to finish filming.

Sanger and Xueer died in this war, but in the end Sanger violated his beliefs and killed.

On the city wall, the two men fell in front of a powder keg filled with explosives, and the ground was covered with gasoline.

The colonel came to them and wanted to persuade Sanger to surrender, but Sanger took out the lighter given to him by the colonel from his pocket while holding Xueer who was shot.

It was time to return the enemy's gift to him. The lit lighter was thrown out by Sanger, instantly igniting a raging fire.

Sanger hugged Xueer tightly in the fire, watching the flames and explosions take away the lives of these benefactors.

Quack, who had lost his father, silently led them towards the most dangerous swamp on the grassland at Jones' request.

At the end of the movie, Gaga stood with her grandmother, looking at the jackal trapped in the swamp, and looking at Jones, who was pointing a gun at him.

Jones looked at the young Gaga with great pain in his heart. On one side he was a comrade-in-arms and on the other side he was his friend.

Jones struggled for a long time, put down the gun in his hand, and staggered away.

The movie was finished, and everyone had smiles on their faces again, but this time the smiles were heavy, as if the cruel scenes during the day were still surrounding them.

The bonfire in the yard was burning, and the blazing flames seemed like war. The sonic boom of firewood sounded from time to time, always reminding people of gunshots.

The aroma of food also lost its charm at this moment.

Feng Xiaoning doesn't have as many ideas as before. If there is no real shooting of the avalanche, there will be no real shooting. Compared with those subsequent scenes, an avalanche has no effect in the movie. It will not add luster to the movie and will not make the movie more interesting. The theme becomes thicker.

Feng Xiaoning looked at everyone's silence, stood up and said to them: "The movie is finished, everyone should be happy, remember history, but life must go on. Come, let's drink together! Thank you to those soldiers who sacrificed in history!"

Feng Xiaoning's words broke the silence in the dark night. Everyone looked at him and then raised the cups in their hands.

Amidst the crisp sound of the clinking of wine glasses, the atmosphere seemed to become warmer. Dorje sat in the corner holding Gaga and sang a melodious song.

Dorje's wife smiled and brought out the mare's kumiss, and then sang along with Dorje's singing along with the girls from the Z tribe.

Chen Li'an looked at Erguotou with only half a bottle left in his hand and smiled, then he pulled Mr. Zhou and Li Dabai to dance around the bonfire.

Ning Jing sat in the distance, watching their dancing figures, and took over Chen Li'an's unfinished Erguotou.

After taking a sip of wine, he also hummed softly along with Duoji and the others' singing.

On such a night, no one seems to care about the little love affairs between men and women. They just want to dance happily and forget the cruelty and sadness.

Singing and wine, dancing and food are the theme of the night.

Chen Li'an took a bowl and drank a drink with everyone. With a red face, he staggered to Ning Jing and sat down. He patted her shoulder vigorously and said, "Thank you."

Ning Jing was a little hurt from being slapped by Chen Li'an, her hands were like iron plates, but looking at the dizzy Chen Li'an, she could only sigh helplessly.

Chen Li'an poured himself a glass of koumiss and touched the Erguotou bottle in Ning Jing's hand and said, "Here's a toast to you! Thank you."

"Thank you for what!" Ning Jing looked at Chen Li'an, who was unconscious but very serious, and couldn't help but said: "I'm just helping to set up a line. I would be shameless to thank you like this."

"If you really want to thank me," Ning Jing muttered in a low voice. Chen Li'an put his arm around her shoulders and asked without hearing clearly, "What did you say? I didn't hear clearly."

Ning Jing said angrily: "Nothing, just drink your wine!"

"Oh" Chen Li'an finished the wine in the bowl and poured it on the table with a clang.

Ning Jing looked at the drunken and unconscious Chen Li'an, then looked up at Mr. Zhou and Li Dabai who were still dancing, and murmured in a low voice: "I can sleep well tonight, um. Then go to bed early."
