It has been almost two years since I left Longnan. The customs, mountains and rivers there, and every plant and tree there have almost faded from memory. But after the huge earthquake that hit Longshu, my heart quickly flew back to the land I had once stepped on.

(1)

At the end of 2005, half a year before graduation, I signed a contract with China Hydropower Bureau No. 5, which came to the school for recruitment. It can be said that I found a home for myself. .

When I graduated, I first went to the headquarters in Chengdu to report, and then went to Shuangliu Airport where the third bureau is located, and walked around step by step. Finally, we went to the front line - the Qilin Temple Hydropower Station Project in Longnan City, Gansu Province. Qilin Temple Hydropower Station is located in Zhongmiao Township, Bikou Town, Wen County, a little-known little place in the Longnan Mountains.

A group of us took a bus from Zhaojue Temple Bus Station in Chengdu and transferred to Zhaohua County, Guangyuan City. We stayed one night at the Fifth Bureau Guest House, and caught the bus to Bikou early the next morning. It took us a bumpy morning to get to the place where even Iwataka would not rest.

Along the way, I got to know many unfamiliar place names and rivers: On the highway from Chengdu to Zhaohua, a striking slogan like "Welcome to Li Bai's hometown-Jiangyou City" stood loudly across the road. Li, Jiangyou City, is deeply imprinted in my mind; for example, Baolun Town is the seat of Zhaohua County and the old base of the Fifth China Hydropower Bureau. To this day, it is still "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse" and it is still famous in the local area. Famous and unshakable trump card enterprise; Bailongjiang, a tributary of the Yangtze River whose source is unknown and where it flows. There are several hydropower stations across it, including the Bikou Hydropower Station, Zilanba Hydropower Station, and the one we are going to. The Qilin Temple Hydropower Station under construction...

When I first set foot on that land, everything I saw was desolate, and I felt that the land could not support people.

The slogan "Exhibit the glory of the Tang Dynasty and build a monument in Longyuan" was attached to the wall of the project department, but I could not fully understand its meaning. Later, I slowly learned that the so-called "Datang" was the owner, Datang Company; the "country road" in front of the project department was the so-called 212 National Highway, which is the only way to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area ...

At that time, I had just stepped out of school, and I was quite arrogant! Longnan, my first stop for work, is also a stop on the road of life. But my stay there was too short, only two months? !

Secondly, the working conditions are poor. The most important thing is that the salary paid to us new employees by the company is too low, with a monthly salary of 800 yuan! Cheaper than cheap labor, how can one support a man’s ideals? After two months of living like a year, I endured the pain and cut off my retreat. I said from the bottom of my heart that I was heartbroken. I thought I was strong enough, but before I left, I stayed alone in the room and let my tears flow freely. I didn't even care when my female colleague Xiao Jiang came in.

I gave up the so-called decent job in Longnan, came to Zhengzhou, the capital city of our province, and started running around looking for jobs. The sky in the city is huge, but my spiritual space is small. what can I do? What can I do?

Yes, if you want to make more money, you have to find a decent job. My salary as a company clerk and factory report is usually over a thousand yuan! When I was in school, my compositions were all model essays, and I always dreamed of being a writer. Can I continue this job? I went to one employment agency to queue up for job applications and interviews. One day, I found a factory and reported it to my department. The other party asked, have you published articles? I shook my head. The other party asked again, did you graduate from the Chinese Department? I still shook my head. The other party's face has changed. Are you kidding me? I was so sad that I really wanted to cry, but I held it back.

Lying in the small rented room, I tossed and turned, where was my way out? Every time in the dead of night, I picked up the long-lost pen and started writing some articles and sent them to some newspapers and magazines, but I don’t know if they were published? Because later I couldn’t hold on any longer and went to the far south, as far as 10,000 feet away from the horizon.

It was around November 2006. Scattered snowflakes were floating in the northern sky, but my heart had already entered the cold winter. "I am a wolf from the north, walking in the endless wilderness..." When I heard the song "Wolf" sung by Qi Qin, I felt filled with emotion!

I have to move south. In the cold north, maybe I will hibernate.

Ask yourself, you really can’t remember where your goal is? It's like swimming in the ocean. At the beginning, you just want to swim inward and farther away from the shore. As you swim, the land behind you disappears in the mist, while the sea level in front seems to be endless. There are no rocks on the left and no islands on the right. There is no place that can tempt me to strive for it. The water under our feet is already very deep, so deep that it is impossible to step on it. So, I can only stretch my limbs and float on the water, letting the gentle or violent sea water impact and beat.

I can't always find my direction, I'm always lost, I always wander back and forth on the streets of this city, I often look up at the sky, it hurts my eyes, and I walk lonely. I thought, it would be difficult for me to fit in here.

Some people are children of nature and would rather be wolves on the grassland than trapped beasts in the city. During the days when I was looking for a way out in Zhengzhou, I felt like a lion that was lured into an iron cage and then snapped shut and locked. I was trapped in the "cage" of the city and endured torture.

Keep moving forward, not caring that you are covered in wounds! In this reinforced concrete jungle, if you flap your wings, I believe you can always find a place to stay!

There is no end to the road, and when I ran out of ammunition and food, I was attracted to join the China Railway Tunnel Group. Under the sky of Ludao, "travel through the time and space tunnel and communicate about a better future" with many people from China Tunnel.

That is a municipal project undertaken by China Railway Tunnel Group in Xiamen: Chenggong Avenue Airport Road JC3 mark. As an external employee under the China Railway Tunnel Group, I devote myself wholeheartedly to the construction and contribute my meager strength to the "construction of the west coast of the Taiwan Strait".

After all, before this, I experienced the frustration of “looking for jobs everywhere but repeatedly hitting the wall”, and my heart also wanted to stay on the ship, and I didn’t want to wander anymore. .

I have not left again. I wonder if I will stay forever?

My steps want to wander, but my heart wants to sail∕

My shadow wants to fly, but my people are still on the ground∕

My eyes want to hide, but my mouth is still showing off

A man like me, Not as strong as you think∕

A man like me is wandering in the world...

Whenever I feel hesitant in my heart, the song "I'm Like This" will ring in my ears man". In the tearful singing, I felt with my heart the helplessness and heartache that I couldn't stop.

Days like this have passed by for a year and a half, and I have witnessed with my own eyes the rapid development and changes of Xiamen Island. I also became an engineer without any regrets, and I am worthy of my name!

I also keep in touch with my friends in Longnan from time to time. Although it was the place where I shed tears, my friends there also brought me great comfort.

2008 is our once-in-a-century Olympic year! But it is also a year of misfortune for our Chinese nation! On the afternoon of May 12, when the Olympic torch was delivered to Xiamen, we put down the work at hand and welcomed the arrival of the torch with the mood of pilgrims.

The torch relay started at 14:30, and two minutes before that, the land of Bashu in southwest my country shook violently. The earth trembled at that moment, houses collapsed, shattered, families were destroyed, people were displaced... It was like the end of the world was coming!

The whole country was shocked and the world was shocked! For many days since then, our hearts have been hanging, grasping, and looking forward to those compatriots in the disaster area... It is an unprecedented concern, even though we don't know each other!

Our lovely compatriots are wandering on the edge of death; our beautiful home is falling into ruins; our relatives are lacking food, clothing, water and electricity; our children are losing walls and walls. struggling.

This earthquake disaster, which has not been seen in thirty years, is frantically devouring the lives of our loved ones and destroying our beautiful and harmonious home. Those pairs of longing eyes and the tragic scenes of tenacious struggles against natural disasters all shocked our hearts.

After the huge earthquake that hit Longshu, I learned through browsing the news on the Internet that Longnan was also one of the hardest-hit areas. At first, I thought about the land as big as Longnan! How could it be the land I once walked on? But one day later, I was watching TV and eating in the canteen of my work unit. I never expected that the picture that appeared was not only Longnan, but Wenxian County! It’s still Bikou Town! ! !

I was stunned at the land I had set foot on! How is that possible? I immediately called my brothers and sisters over there, but when I called them one by one, I got either a blind tone or a message saying that I couldn't get through! I was really panicked, and my mind quickly returned to the place that I once tried so hard to escape from...

Everything there began to linger in my mind again in an instant - —The ruins of the decayed walls of Qilin Temple and the old tree as thick as a hug in front of the temple, the small temple on the hilltop used to worship the mountain god at the construction site of the Qilin Temple Hydropower Station, the gold mining boats on the Bailong River and the retail investors , the only middle school in Zhongmiao Township, those crowded grocery stores, and the bustling Bikou Town, but I can’t even buy my favorite "Special Attention"...

I still remember that we downloaded it The stream where we go swimming and splashing together after work, the dangerous rocks beside National Highway 212, the rushing river water after the rain, the lush mountains all around...

It reminded me even more of the Kirin Temple where I spent time together day and night. Leaders and friends of the project department: Director Liu who is arrogant and roaring, Director He who is soft and soft, Captain Zhang who cares about me, the pair of "living treasures" construction workers who look exactly like the "Imperial Army" and the "Japanese Devil", the precious sword has been The old and disobedient contractor Lao Yi...; Zhang Zhengyong who lived in the same room with me, Wang Shengtan who talked with his tongue, Xiao Jiang, the female teacher who took her pen from the "Rong", Luo Hongbin with excellent skills, and the petite Sichuan girl Xiang Ying...; I also remember that Xiao Jiang went to Chengdu to give a speech and brought me my favorite "Special Attention", which made me feel like seeing an old friend reunited after a long separation; I also remember that before leaving, in the small restaurant in front of the project department, That group of brothers and sisters practiced it for me together, and after eating the "Sanzhi Banquet", my mood was like a surging river, an indescribable feeling...

Later, I finally met Xiao Jiang After we got on the phone, she told me with lingering fear that there were water and power outages, mobile phone signals were intermittent, and even landline calls could not be made. She lived in a tent every day... I listened carefully and said to her, "Take care." "Words like that. Later, I sent a greeting message to Luo Hongbin and received his reply: "Haha, thank you for the post-disaster condolences. I am very lucky to be alive. Thank God. Hahaha..."

Yes, some of them People, or even all people, we may never have the chance to meet again in this lifetime! But when the ruthless disaster strikes, I feel unspeakable concern for my friends who are still there!

I wish them all the best! We also hope that the people in the disaster area can rebuild their homes as soon as possible and get out of the haze brought by the earthquake! I would rather God bless my China! Like
