"Damn it! What big move is there in Class 9?"

"Is their first class a physical education class? But it's raining outside, do they still have to go to the playground for physical education class?"

"Looking at how excited they are, they don't look like they are going to physical education class."

"You don't know this, right? Teacher Xu from Class 9 organized them to visit the martyrs' cemetery today to commemorate the revolutionary martyrs."

"Ah? According to our Zhenzhong tradition, isn't it no longer necessary to go to the second year of high school?"

"Yes, I remember when we were in the first year of high school, our class teacher said that in the third year of high school, we will organize everyone to lay flower baskets at the Martyrs Cemetery, right?"

"That's us. Can we compare with the classmates in Class 9? There are so many class activities."

"Oh, please stop talking. I'm going to get so upset when you say it."

"It's Wednesday today, don't they have to go to class?"

"If you can win prizes in subject competitions, become a national first-class athlete on the sports field, or even be selected for the national team or be signed by a wealthy club, our class teacher will definitely not require you to attend classes every day. You can do whatever you want."

"Oh, what are you doing! Is it appropriate to expose someone's shortcomings like this?"

"Hahaha, don't look at it, we are only envious."

…

The students of Class 9 were organizing their formation in the corridor, and the huge movement attracted the attention of students from other classes.

Only then did they realize that Class 9 was engaging in class activities again.

I couldn't hide the envious looks from the other classmates.

When Xu Jie came to the class, the students had already lined up neatly in two columns under the leadership of the squad leader.

"Set off!"

Following Teacher Xu's order, the students from Class 9 left the teaching building in a mighty manner.

Along the way, students from other classes who didn't know the truth looked around.

Early in the morning, Class 9 once again became the protagonist of discussions among students on campus.

"Our plan today is to go to the Martyrs Cemetery in the morning and Baijiang Mountain in the afternoon. All the itineraries will be done on foot."

Xu Jie walked on the left side of the team, protecting the students on his right side, and said to the students with a smile.

"It turns out that we went to the Martyrs Cemetery first and then to Baijiang Mountain? I thought we were going to Baijiang Mountain first."

"It's okay, pretty much the same."

"What Teacher Xu arranges, we will implement it."

"Nothing wrong."

"It's probably because the Martyrs Cemetery is closer to us, right? Didn't you hear Teacher Xu say that today's trip depends entirely on our own two legs?"

"The Martyrs Cemetery is 2.3 kilometers away from us, and Baijiang Mountain is 5.7 kilometers away from the Martyrs Cemetery. At the end of the day, we walked more than ten kilometers."

"In all my life, I have never walked so far in one day."

"Me too."

"Does Teacher Xu intend to let us experience the 25,000-mile Long March?"

"Don't flatter yourself. Our Long March is nothing. Think about the conditions under which the revolutionary martyrs conducted the Long March."

"They have warm clothes, comfortable sneakers, backpacks full of snacks, and a stress-free mood like us?"

"There is no comparison, and it cannot be compared."

"Yeah, it's incredible when I think about it. If it hadn't really happened, I would have thought it would be an impossible task."

…

It's raining lightly in the sky.

Some students held umbrellas, and some simply walked in the rain.

After hearing from Teacher Xu that all the trips today would be done on foot, the students didn't have any objections.

After all, today they are here to commemorate those heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country.

The students only felt that the path they took was nothing compared to the hardships and blood shed by the martyrs, just like a firefly compared to a bright moon.

Xu Jie listened to the conversations of his classmates and nodded happily. www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm

If young people are strong, the country will be strong.

The future will always belong to groups of young people who are ambitious, talented and responsible.

If young people are not patriotic, then what future does this country have?

The first destination of Class 9 is the Zhongnan City Martyrs Cemetery.

Xu Jie thought of a discussion he had seen on the Internet, so he smiled and said to his classmates:

"Students, this is definitely not the first time you have been to the Martyrs Cemetery since you were young, right?"

"Yes, Teacher Xu, we have been going to the Martyrs Cemetery to sweep the graves since we were in elementary school."

"Yeah, we started going there when we were in elementary school, and we also walked."

"Elementary school, junior high school, high school, I go to every stage."

The students responded one after another. They were curious as to why Teacher Xu asked this question.

Xu Jie smiled again and said:

"There was a discussion on the Internet about why the Martyrs Cemetery never gives people a gloomy feeling?"

"Classmates, why do you think it is?"

After hearing Teacher Xu's words, the students in Class 9 began to answer in all directions.

"Gloomy? How can the Martyrs Cemetery give people a gloomy feeling? Every time I go to the Martyrs Cemetery, I only feel the majestic atmosphere and awe-inspiring righteousness."

"That is, if even going to the Martyrs Cemetery feels eerie, then this person must have something evil in his heart, right?"

"Yes, yes, it makes sense. Only those who have a ghost in their heart and no longer recognize that they are still of Chinese blood would find it gloomy, right?"

"I have also seen this problem online. Some people say it is due to the design. Every martyrs cemetery is designed in a decent and upright style."

"It has something to do with design. No matter how poorly designed or shabby the Martyrs Cemetery is, I won't find it eerie."

"Yes, I think it's mainly because we recognize from the bottom of our hearts the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country."

"Yes, they sacrificed their lives for us and the country when they were alive. Will they still harm us after they die?"

"That's right. When I think of those countless heroes who sacrificed their lives heroically, I feel nothing but gratitude. How could I be afraid? Would I think their resting place is eerie? It's simply impossible!"

"There's nothing wrong with it. It's precisely because in our hearts, the image of the martyrs is heroic, sunny, and righteous. It's impossible for us to feel scared or gloomy."

"Aren't all the martyrs who died heroically for the country and the people our relatives? How can we be afraid of their tombstones?"

"Let alone broad daylight, even if I were to pass by the Martyrs Cemetery alone at night, I would not be afraid. Instead, I would feel safe."

…

Listening to the students' answers, Xu Jie nodded and said:

"Classmates, what you said is all right."

"In this world, there has never been an era of peace, and wars and artillery fire have never stopped."

"The reason why we can have enough food, warm clothes, education, and can walk on the streets easily without having to worry about dodging artillery fire and bullets is precisely because those people may have their names recorded, or they may no longer be able to trace them.

The martyrs of the textual research used their own flesh and blood to create such a good growth environment for us."
