The hour hand stopped at 14:28, ten years Never moved again.

The 2008 earthquake took away the lives of 87,150 people and injured more than 370,000 people. It was not only a catastrophe in the disaster area, but also a historical pain for the country and nation.

The wounds on the body have healed, but the heart is often torn open again. The Wenchuan earthquake ten years ago ushered in the first year of psychological rescue. Today, ten years later, a reporter from Shenyidu (ID: bqshenyidu) went deep into disaster areas in many places in Sichuan and completed a series of field investigations on the psychological and mental recovery conditions of victims in three months.

People cannot erase this memory, but they can work hard to heal the pain.

?The post-earthquake ruins of Beichuan Middle School

Tian Shaoli, who was in the third grade of junior high school, never waited for a call from her sister.

Xia Yu, a freshman in high school, hugged her best friend for the last time.

Li Yiling, a senior in high school, could only see the green water bottles of her classmates in the same village.

?

That day was May 12, 2008. An earthquake hit Beichuan Middle School in Renjiaping. Two five-story teaching buildings collapsed, killing more than a thousand students. .

Classmates, friends, family members, and people from all aspects of their life circle have left. Tian Shaoli and her generation of Beichuan people have become incomplete. Someone lamented: "There are very few children of my age in Beichuan."

No way to go

Recalling that day 10 years ago, Tian Shaoli couldn't stop crying. , the wet paper towels were thrown on the desk, piled up into a "hill".

On the afternoon of May 12, 2008, not long after the politics class started, it began to shake. The classmates and the teacher were confused and didn't know what was happening.

Beichuan Middle School was building a playground at that time, and large-scale machinery was often used for work. When the earthquake first started, Tian Shaoli thought it was the sound of machinery passing by the teaching building.

When the ceiling fell, someone finally said the words "earthquake", and Tian Shaoli and the others were told to hide under the table. The ground seemed to have opened a hole, and the teaching building began to sink. The first floor sank under the ground, and the second floor became the first floor. Some students couldn't stand it anymore and jumped out of the window.

"Huanhuan, come in quickly," Li Yiling from Class 6, Grade 3, hid under the table, and hugged her deskmate who was still in his seat. Li Yiling didn't feel particularly scared, it was more like a dream, "like being on a seesaw, swinging back and forth along with the floor of the classroom."

As the teaching building sinks, the fourth grade building where Class 6 of Grade 3 is located The floor was a little lower. Li Yiling and her classmates bypassed the already uncovered stairs and ran to the balcony on the third floor. Going down further, they found that there was "no way to go."

The second floor where Tian Shaoli’s class was located completely collapsed. She did not run out and was trapped under the rubble. She could feel that there were other students nearby. They were separated by desks, but they could hear each other talking. "There were three classmates who were relatively close to me at the time."

These teenage children encouraged each other under the ruins to survive. But some people broke down emotionally and kept crying, "Help me, help me."

Children under the rubble

Li Yiling jumped directly from the third floor. After landing on the ground, I looked back and saw that I was seven or eight meters high, and then I felt a little scared.

The sky was filled with dust, and Li Yiling’s vision was blurred, and she could not tell the difference between east, west and north. She saw a boy wearing military green clothes in front of her. She grabbed the boy’s clothes and started running out without leaving the boy behind. she.

Arrived at the playground, Li Yiling raised her head and looked across the way. Her vision suddenly became much clearer than before. The mountain that was originally blocked by the teaching building now appeared in front of her. Li Yiling felt a "thump" in her heart.

Beichuan Middle School, founded in 1944, is the only high school in Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County. Before the earthquake, it had 2,883 students, covering 3 towns and 17 townships in Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County. . May 12th happened to be a Monday. Most students returned to school after saying goodbye to their families the day before. Tian Shaoli also just had a happy weekend. She and her sister bought a cake to celebrate her mother’s birthday in advance.

Parents from nearby villages rushed to the school and were dumbfounded. The five-story teaching building collapsed. The children were shouting inside and the adults were shouting outside.

Beichuan Middle School became one of the places hardest hit by the disaster in Beichuan. According to incomplete statistics, more than a thousand students died here. More than 20 of the 53 students in Tian Shaoli's class were killed.

Xia Yu, a freshman in Beichuan Middle School, her class was one of the classes with the fewest casualties, with more than 60 students giving birth to more than 50 victims. As for his brother's class, only ten people survived in the entire class. There was another class in the first grade of high school. Except for one student who asked for leave, all the others were killed. Xia Yu recalled that in the entire first grade of high school, out of six to seven hundred people, more than two hundred people survived.

"People like me, who were only slightly injured during the earthquake, are really lucky." Xia Yu said, "You can see that in Beichuan, children of my age are very lucky. Less."

The Last Hug

Less than a week before the 2018 Spring Festival, the New Year atmosphere in Beichuan New County is getting stronger, and workers are hanging dēng cages on the street lights on both sides of the road.

When I met Xia Yu, she had just finished working in Chengdu and returned to Beichuan. After the earthquake, my parents opened a supermarket in the county town. The new year was approaching and business was very busy. There were several times when Xia Yu had to pause the conversation to help customers choose goods and collect money.

Xia Yu is an optimistic girl. She smiled more than other students as she recalled the disaster. "Looking back now, this is all fate or luck."

Only when she talked about her friends who were killed, there was a choke in her voice. "Everyone's state is different when he is in front of others and when he is alone. This is the pain that others cannot see."

Xia Yu has a very good friend. They have been together since elementary school. People are inseparable. "We still wrote letters when we were young, and there are many letters from her at home."

Before the earthquake, a good friend won the second prize in the school's essay competition and received dozens of yuan in bonuses. She and Xia Yu We agreed to find a time this week to buy some delicious food and celebrate.

At noon on May 12, while cleaning, Xia Yu saw her in the corridor, and the two hugged her. A few hours later, the earthquake came, and in Xia Yu’s sight, The friend never showed up again.

Sometimes, my friend’s mother still bursts into tears when she meets Xia Yu on the street. "We all know the pain, but we can't comfort it. She can only look away from it or receive some psychological counseling."

No students in Class 6, Grade 3, were killed. However, some of Li Yiling's friends from lower grades never came out again. One of the girls was willing to share with Li Yiling which boy in school or barbershop was handsome. Recalling this, a rare smile appeared on Li Yiling's face, "Once, the two of us squatted in front of the barber shop all morning, but I didn't think any boy was very handsome."

Li Yiling also Remember a green water bottle. The day before the earthquake, Li Yiling met a girl from the same village where she was taking a shower in the dormitory building. They all called her "Ms. Zhao." She was a freshman in Beichuan Middle School, and Li Yiling chatted with her for a few words. The last scene between the two of them was in the boiling water room. Ten years later, Li Yiling couldn't remember exactly what they talked about or what clothes Ms. Zhao was wearing. Only the bright color of the green water bottle she was holding was still in her mind.

Tian Shaoli never waited for her sister’s call again. During the earthquake, Tian Shaoli's sister was herding sheep on the mountain and was subsequently killed. Tian Shaoli was rescued from the ruins and sent to the hospital, where she met villagers from a neighboring village and learned about the situation at home.

My sister fell ill due to illness and was unable to continue studying. She stayed at home to help her parents with work. She loved Tian Shaoli very much. Every time she came home, her sister would take care of cooking and washing clothes.

The school dormitory is equipped with a public phone, and the two sisters call and chat basically every night to talk about each other's concerns.

On May 11, when Tian Shaoli left home and returned to school, she specifically asked her sister to call her at night, but her sister joked that she would not call her. As a result, she really didn't receive a call from her sister that night.

Sisters

The car passed through the Tangjiashan Tunnel and Ma'anshan Tunnel. The mountain road was steep, with a canyon on one side and a canyon on the other. It is a cliff, and traces of falling rocks can be seen not far away on the road. Two or three years ago, this was still a dirt road. Along this dirt road, the Zhao woman Li Yiling mentioned went to school and returned home countless times.

In Taibai Village, Xiaoba Township, 70 kilometers away from Beichuan County, I met Ms. Zhao’s parents: 55-year-old Zhao Chunzhong and 53-year-old Chen Guofang. Ms. Zhao is their second daughter.

On Saturday, my 8-year-old daughter returned to the mountains with her father. She wore her hair in a bun and was at the age when her teeth were changing. When someone asked her where her two front teeth were, she quickly covered her mouth with a shy expression. She would also be asked why her father gave a boy a name, and the little daughter herself couldn't tell.

After the earthquake, Ms. Zhao was killed, and her mother Chen Guofang kept thinking wildly, and finally had to distract herself by doing handicrafts. She made dozens of pairs of insoles, many of which are still at home. "There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about it."

Ms. Zhao's dream was to study abroad. On the mountain, Chen Guofang was planting medicinal materials. Ms. Zhao asked, "I want to study abroad in the future. Mom, can you afford it?"

“If you can afford it, you can already sell these for money when you study abroad.” Chen Guofang looked at the more than two hundred acres of medicinal materials on the mountain.

Saving up enough money to go abroad has become the couple’s biggest concern. The two of them worked from dawn to dusk, driving to collect mountain goods and do business.

Hearing the conversation about the sister she had never seen before, the younger daughter took out the book that Ms. Zhao had read from the house. She could not understand it, but she knew that a sister had passed away. The little one also likes to study, which makes Chen Guofang have mixed feelings, "If she has good grades like her second sister, then we must surrender her."

Mornings in the mountains are colder than in Leigu Town. Many, Chen Guofang, who was worried that her baby would catch a cold, added a vest to her little daughter. In the past few years, due to poor health, my youngest daughter often caught colds and high fevers. She had to go to the hospital in Mianyang more than ten times a year, which cost her 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. "It's a lot of pressure. I borrowed money from everywhere. Now I'm worried about spending money for her illness, and later I'm worried about her studying."

Currently, the family's livelihood depends entirely on Chen Guófang's income from feeding pigs. The price of pigs has been bad in the past two years. "We are very worried now. We are over 50 years old. Who wants you to work?"

We are responsible for the children in front of us, and we only have unrealistic longing for Ms. Zhao. In the tenth year, Chen Guofang insisted not to change her phone number. She lost her phone and had to get the number back. She was worried that her daughter might come back to find her one day. "Isn't it on TV? What if she is still there?"

Aftershocks in my heart

For the surviving children of Beichuan, even a slight shake is the fear of ten years ago It will come up again.

The Yushu earthquake and Ya'an earthquake after 2008 were all felt in Chengdu. The office where Xia Yu worked was on a very high floor. A slight shake would make her nervous and scared. Many friends will post in their WeChat Moments to joke that there has been another earthquake. She watched the screen refresh and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. "Some people may say, why are you so afraid of death or something, but for those of us who have experienced 5.12, it is very scary."

"It is better to believe that this kind of thing happens. "Living in an earthquake zone, Beichuan people are no strangers to earthquakes. When I was a child, Xia Yu was washing her feet when she noticed the basin was shaking. The next day, she realized that it was an earthquake. Until that day 10 years ago, people thought it was just a usual "little fight", but they didn't expect that it would be followed by a landslide.

“It has been 10 years, are there still any shadows about the earthquake?” I asked Li Yiling.

"Of course there is. Just a slight sway makes me feel very nervous."

Sometimes the feet of the people next to me are shaking. Li Yiling's first reaction is, is it an earthquake? She can't control herself and wants to go out. run. There is an instinctive fear of tall buildings. When Li Yiling was in Chengdu, she would feel scared when she saw tall buildings, and naturally thought that there would be nowhere to hide when an earthquake struck.

In an English class at the university, a road construction roller passed by the school, causing vibrations in the classroom. Li Yiling, who was sitting in the back row, suddenly stood up and shouted, "It's an earthquake, it's an earthquake." Then she started running out, and finally a classmate grabbed her.

Tian Shaoli, who was rescued after being trapped for 26 hours, took a long time to recover the memory of the earthquake. After falling into coma under the ruins, Tian Shaoli had many dreams. In one of the dreams, Tian Shaoli was taking a physical education class. The teacher asked her classmates to pass various competitions. She couldn't pass a level. "It took a long, long time to pass with difficulty."

Ruins Another dream she had was that before the earthquake, she had already run out of the teaching building and evacuated to a safe place, but suddenly wanted to go to the toilet and ran back to the teaching building, only to be trapped by the collapsed rubble.

For a long time after the earthquake, she mistakenly thought these dreams were reality. "After I was rescued, some family members and reporters asked me. I told them so, but it was not the case." At a class reunion a year later, classmates talked about the situation under the ruins, and Tian Shaoli's memory came to light. All restored.

?New site of Beichuan Middle School

Goodbye Beichuan

In Tian Shaoli’s house, things about her sister were not deliberately hidden, but placed in a fixed place . Sometimes, Tian Shaoli would go and take a look, "Now it's not a sad look, but more of a longing emotion."

She rarely hides in bed and cries like before. The memory of my sister only appears at special moments.

In November 2017, Tian Shaoli received the certificate and the wedding was being prepared. Her husband is also a student at Beichuan Middle School. Their love lasted for five years and finally came true. Her husband became Tian Shaoli's new support. Sometimes, she asked her husband if he cared about the scars on his arms left by the earthquake. The husband's answer was firm, "I don't care", which became the greatest comfort.

Xia Yu began to think about the meaning of life. She decided to leave Beichuan and go see the bigger and farther world. "Otherwise, if you die one day and haven't left this Beichuan County, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

After the earthquake, people from all over the world flocked to Beichuan, including Chinese and foreign reporters. Meeting so many different people at once. Xia Yu, whose horizons suddenly broadened, wanted to go to Beijing at first. In the first year of the college entrance examination, he was admitted to a second-tier school in Beijing. However, because his father was worried that the school was not good, Xia Yu repeated his studies for another year and was admitted to a university in Chengdu. .

Li Yiling chose to come back. Affected by the earthquake, she chose nursing as a university major. After graduation, she returned to work in a hospital in Beichuan.

I don’t want to touch the memory of Beichuan Middle School, but it is difficult to forget it.

In the past 10 years, Li Yiling has only been to Lao Beichuan Middle School twice. "It was exactly two years and three months later that I went back to the middle school for the first time. At that time, the memorial hall had not been built yet. Thinking of many friends lying here, my nose was very sore and my heart was very sad." Li Yiling The qq space saved the "beautiful photos of the old Beichuan Middle School and the county town before the earthquake."

On April 14, 2018, the car going home passed by the location of Beichuan Middle School. Li Yiling did not look out the window. Over the years, every time she passed by this place, she would intentionally turn her head and look elsewhere.

After the earthquake, the ruins of the old Beichuan Middle School were built into an earthquake memorial. During the Qingming Festival, the slope covering the ruins of the school building is covered with green grass, and the low woods on both sides are decorated with white paper flowers. There are also burnt incense candles and paper money in the cement pond for memorial.

New Beichuan Middle School was rebuilt in Yongchang Town, 30 kilometers away. The stone tablet at the school gate reads the eight-character school motto of "patriotism, gratitude, simplicity, and diligence."

On the afternoon of Sunday, April 15, 2018, students from all over Beichuan returned to campus dragging suitcases, pushing mountain bikes, and carrying guitars. Name tags hung on their chests. Put the campus card in your hand on the machine at the school gate, and there will be a beep: a new week of campus life has begun.

On that Sunday 10 years ago, Tian Shaoli, Xia Yu, and Li Yiling also returned to school from home. The next day, the earthquake came.
