To be honest, this day was almost the most boring day for Hong Yanwu.
The abnormal atmosphere in the class completely left him no room to perform. No one paid attention to him from beginning to end. As a result, he felt uncomfortable all morning and just felt listless.
So when he came to school in the afternoon, he didn't go to class at all. Instead, he braved the roaring wind and ran to the wasteland on campus to look for fresh food. He also thought about catching bugs or something there to release.
Have some fun in your classmate's pencil case.
Unexpectedly, when he was looking for bugs in the old elm tree beside the school wall, he looked up along the trunk and saw a broken "big sand swallow" on the highest branch above his head.
”.
As a result, this kid almost stopped salivating at the time. He didn't even care about the windy weather of Level 4 or 5, and without even the slightest hesitation, he climbed up the wall like a civet cat, and then climbed up the tree again by "squeezing".
Having said that, we have a few more words to say.
It is March in spring in Beijing. Although it is windy, there are mostly sunny days. It is a good time to fly kites.
In the eyes of old Beijing people, kites have always been included in the category of "customs of the year".
To put it bluntly, the kite flying in the sky is as necessary as the candied haws in the mouth and the diabolo shaking in the hand. It is an indispensable toy in spring.
Therefore, often in the spring when the sky is transparent and the wind is strong, people who have free time will put one or two in the open field. Some people go out with their children and the whole family, and of course there are also people who put them alone.
In this way, no matter whether spring comes early or late that year, as long as people see all kinds of kites flying in the sky, they will know that spring is approaching. Therefore, there is a poem that goes, "The grass grows and the orioles fly in the February sky, and the embankments are blown.
Willows are drunk with spring smoke. Children come home early from school and are busy flying kites in the east wind."
In addition, when it comes to the favorite kite of the old Beijing people, it must first be the Shayaner, commonly known as the "black pot bottom", also known as Jingyaner and Zhayaner. As the old saying goes, "Black butterflies in the north city, black butterflies in the south city"
That's what I mean by "Da Zha Yan", and it is a well-deserved representative of the capital's kites.
Its most striking feature is that the patterns are mostly black with large fonts. When it is placed high in the sky, the blue sky sets off the black and white colors of the kite, which is particularly eye-catching.
However, as good-looking as it is, the production process of Sha Yan'er is very complex. The four steps of "tying, pasting, painting, and flying" not only require skills, but also are all meticulous work. The production is quite difficult. In addition to the special work of pasting the kite
There are not many people who are experts at making such kites by themselves, and even fewer people can be said to be good at making them.
So usually, children from ordinary families only envy and covet this kind of kite. And most of the "flying machines" they can own are just homemade "fart curtains".
Speaking of this "fart curtain", I have to say a few more words, because this is probably the simplest homemade kite, and it must be quite qualified to apply for Guinness.
This kind of kite only has bamboo strips on its four sides and a cross frame in the middle, which is shaped like a tile. Because there is often a tail or tassel attached to the bottom, it floats in the wind like a child's fart curtain, so it got its name.
.
Of course, a crudely made kite like this is unsightly and easy to be blown away by the wind, so it must be difficult to fly. Therefore, children often run up and sweat, and they can only try so hard that they are three feet away from their heads.
It's so high that you can't put it high in the sky at all.
At this point, it is probably very clear. It is not difficult for us to imagine how Hong Yanwu felt when he saw this Sha Yan as a child.
For such a child whose only job is to play with things, it is like being hit by a "pie falling from the sky".
If you want to use an appropriate word to describe his enthusiasm at this moment, it would be like a bad wolf seeing fat. Once he sees it, he will not let go. He wants to get rid of this Sha Yan'er at all costs.
Got it.
So now this kid has only one thought in his mind: as long as he can get this kite down, not to mention he will become the only one among all the children who owns a "high-end" kite, just because of his courage and this adventure
Experience can completely calm the children in the three alleys nearby.
In this way, Hong Yanwu had beautiful thoughts in his heart, and out of a yearning for "prominence", he braved the biting wind and climbed higher and higher on the old elm tree...
What does it mean to be fearless in the ignorant?
Hong Yanwu is it!
But in the final analysis, adults still understand the power of it.
It happened that a third-grade teacher took two students to the boiler room to turn on the water. As they were passing by, they happened to see Hong Yanwu trying to climb up and almost being blown down by the strong wind.
As a result, the teacher was stunned at the time. But when he came to his senses, he hurried to the tree and ordered Hong Yanwu to get down from the tree immediately.
But he didn't want Hong Yanwu to screw him to death. He was as if he was possessed by an evil spirit. No matter in his eyes or in his heart, he was only staring at the big sand swallow on the treetop. He didn't even think about whether it was worth it or not. He would rather
Even at the risk of being blown down by the strong wind, I had to wait until the kite was enough before getting off the tree.
So, the matter suddenly became a big deal.
Since Hong Yanwu was a "well-known person" in the school, the teacher didn't even need to inquire. He directly sent the students to notify Hong Yanwu's class teacher.
News of the "front line" quickly spread to the office. The head teacher, who was hesitating about Teacher Chang's conditions, heard that Hong Yanwu had climbed the tallest old elm tree in the school and was almost blown down by the wind. He immediately jumped from his seat in shock.
He jumped up and immediately ran towards the campus in a hurry.
What frightened her even more was that when she rushed to the scene of the incident panting, she found that Hong Yanwu on the tree was still persevering in "climbing the heights" even though many people were watching.
", and it's not far away from the kite on the branch.
The old elm tree in the school is about ten meters high, and it was trembling in the strong wind. The head teacher heard from the school worker standing nearby that he couldn't reach the boy even if he put up a wooden ladder.
If there is another strong wind, people will fall down. Suddenly I feel anxious and my eyes are red with anxiety.
In desperation, she looked up at the "living monkey" who was high up and had no other thoughts, and quickly shouted to him loudly. The meaning was nothing more than asking him to get down from the tree, stop this "animal" behavior and return to "humanity"
world.
Unexpectedly, the "evil beast" was completely unmoved, and only focused on the target without wavering.
The head teacher thought Hong Yanwu hadn't heard and was waiting to shout again. However, the third-grade teacher was worried that Hong Yanwu would be distracted in this situation and stepped in to stop her in time.
The head teacher had no choice but to wait under the tree separately with the third-grade teacher, and continued to work with his neck raised in a hurry.
In this way, in the strong wind, on the desolate and weed-covered land of the school, under the eyes of many students, the two anxious teachers met the "returning one" moving nimbly on the branches.
"Ancestor Human" forms an indescribable landscape.
