"Seven Samurai"_Chewing plum and swallowing snow
In Japan, during the Warring States Period, a group of heroes competed, thieves were everywhere, and the people were not alive.
What a troubled world this is! The big-name general, "the emperor, whoever has the strongest soldiers and strong horses", herdsmen are like cattle and sheep, and treat them like grass and mustards. "Why don't men take Wu Gou and collect the fifty states of Guanshan" refers to the samurai, as a mercenary, loyal and brave to take the lead, eager to kill the enemy and break the battlefield, make meritorious deeds, and become the main defender of the city. Farmers, in one sentence, "I would rather be a peace dog than a chaotic person." Taxes, militants, wars, droughts, floods, thieves, locust plagues, etc., can kill all of them, "Live like an animal "Live" is their only hope. The movie "Seven Samurai" directed by Akira Kurosawa tells the story of a small mountain village in this troubled time.
In 1588, Toyotomi Hideyoshi issued a sword hunting order to the whole country, confiscating the weapons of the peasants, separating soldiers and peasants, and stabilizing the status of samurai and peasants. Therefore, farmers can only farm land, not to mention samurai. Even in the eyes of bandits who have horses, knives and guns, they are like cattle and sheep in captivity. In this way, farmers in small villages under the incompetence of the government and bandits, follow Learned helplessness (behavior at the mercy of repeated failure or punishment, refers to a hopeless and helpless behavior and psychological state of reality formed through learning.) The same, hearing the word thief, I was terrified in my heart.
The beginning of "Seven Samurai" was slanted subtitles and drum music, which first gave the audience a sense of insecurity, and then the bandits appeared. The black silhouettes under the dark sky meant the bandits’ mystery, horror and cruelty, galloping. The action and the sound of horseshoes in the background tell us that these bandits come and go like the wind, killing and looting like fire. This shot clearly divides the picture into three layers. The darkness of the world and the earth can’t help but remind people of Guan Hanqing’s "Earth, you don’t know what the earth is. The sky is also, you mistake the sages and fools to be the heavens", and the heavens and the earth are in the middle. The bandit space is too tight, giving people a sense of oppression, and exaggerating the environment of bandits in troubled times.
The bandit who drove the horse then came to the top of the mountain in the northwest of the village. The bandits who had already looted many were not satisfied and were eager to try. In the picture, the small mountain village looks like a basin under the mountain, but it can be easily trampled under the hooves of a bandit. While we were worried about the small village, a bandit leader clearly knew the truth of "axe into the forest in time", and he couldn't do things without exhaustion. So the bandits went back and planned to harvest the wheat again.
At this moment, a frightened farmer appeared under the branches, so that the sound of horseshoes in front of him did not seem to be from God's perspective. The farmer should have hid here only after hearing the sound of horseshoes at the beginning. There is also a comparison between the chirping of birds and the hooves of the bandits going away.
The farmers who received the news gathered to discuss countermeasures. The camera shot from far and near, and then the group portrait of the farmers. Through the dialogue, the main four farmers, Wanzao, Yopei, Mosuke, and Liji, were brought out, and they explained the incompetence of the government and the killing of the farmers. After passing the message of the samurai, and leaving a doubt here, why Liji is not as afraid as other farmers, but hates the bandits even more and wants to fight the bandits.
The scene is divided into three layers before and after, respectively, the last painful dragon peasants, the middle is the reluctant Wanzao, and the foreground is Liji burned in the anger of the hate bandit. The people who had no results in the discussion bowed their heads and lined up to the waterwheel hut to ask for help from the old man. With the soundtrack, there was a religious pilgrimage, showing the old man's status and prestige in the clan.
The old man who recalled the past was both painful and angry. His last two eyes let out the light of a bird of prey, showing fierceness, he made a decision to fight the bandits desperately, and told everyone he had seen about the peasants hiring samurai. Wan Zao expressed dissatisfaction. The village was too poor and the farmers could only drink gruel. Liji stood up and said that we can eat tares (tares are vicious weeds in the rice fields, and the "failure" in the prodigal is the evolution of tares, and it is also a horse. A kind of feed for cattle and sheep, here is foreshadowing. Later, the tares promotes the progress of the plot twice.) Wanzao also said that the samurai is very proud. Will he work hard for us just by taking care of the rice? The old man gave an idea and said that the bear would go down the mountain when he was hungry, so he should go to the hungry samurai. So Manzo, Yopei, Mosuke, and Riki went to the city to find a samurai.
There are many warriors in the city, but it is hard to find a hungry warrior who is willing to work hard for the peasants and has the ability. The four people watched the samurai come and go eagerly. There are many shots of the samurai. One of them is the famous Nakadai Tatsuya (starring in "Intentional Stick", "Human Conditions", "Shadow Warrior", "Chaos", " The Story of the Faithful Dog Hachiko, etc.).
Liji finally couldn't help begging for a downturned warrior, but was kicked out of the crowd and could only kowtow to beg for mercy. Here is a triangular composition with three points of samurai, liji and weapons. Although liji is in the foreground, he is shivering with fear. In addition, the strong rebuke of the strong samurai and the long weapon reaching into the sky demonstrate the noble status of the samurai and the peasantry. The humble.
On a rainy day, the four people who were washing their feet by the well in the backyard of the inn found that the wheat was ripe. Wanzao said that it had been ten days since he had left the village. It showed that it was not easy to find a samurai. Ten days he still got nothing. On the other hand, it means that things are urgent. Because the plan of the bandits in the front was to rob the mountain village after the wheat was ripe, just when everyone felt what was good, Liji behind understood the truth of "the world will be full in April, and the peach blossoms in the temple will begin to bloom" and tell everyone that the wheat here is better than the mountain. precocious. Then he walked into the inn, and at this moment three footmen came out, the last of whom stood and laughed at him wishing to find a samurai.
Three footmen are brought out here, and the three of them have also contributed to the development of the following story. Although the old man speaks very straight and has a more grumpy temper, he is actually kinder and sympathetic to the weak. He is three lovely supporting characters.
On rainy days, there was no one on the street and could not go out to find a samurai. The four of them could only sit in the inn and worry about it. Below is the group play in the store, highlighting the peasants' suffering. First, there was a blind man who played the pipa for a small amount of money, with sad music as the background, and then the meat bun seller pointed out the peasants who only ate the tares, who would suffer from night blindness. The samurai slapped, and Yuping explained under the ridicule of the footmen that farmers could only distinguish the quality of the seeds, not the quality of the samurai. Hearing the difference in martial arts, a sleeping samurai got up to explain, but was irritated by the footman and went back.
By the bridge on the outskirts of the city, Manzao and Liji fought, and Maosuke pulled Manzao, and Heyue hugged Liji, and separated the two. Wanzao clamored and said that there was no other way but to negotiate with the bandits. Liji suddenly calmed down, and said quietly at Wanzao with a wonderful smile, "What do you give to the bandits during the negotiation and give your daughter to the bandits, Shino is pretty" , It's useful, Wanzao was speechless, his eyes full of fear. Here, I clicked on Shino, the character behind, and led to the follow-up episode of the four people seeing Kanbingbei.
The front camera was rainy, and the fight between Manzo and Liji just now was by the stream, so the two men who were covered in mud washed the mud in the river, and Shigeru and Yohei looked down at them on the bridge. With a sound of footsteps, Kazuhira Mosuke raised his head and looked across the river. Following their gazes, the camera shot backwards. At this moment, a samurai came out across the river, Kanbei, followed by many farmers with farm tools. Kanbingbei walks in front, and his clothes are brightly colored, and the peasants in the back are dark. The contrast highlights the Kanbingbei in the middle.
Kanbei came to the river and cut the bun with a short knife in his waist. The people around were surprised. They didn't know what medicine was sold in this samurai gourd, and everyone knew how important a bun was to a samurai. Then a farmer brought a razor, and the Kanbingwei handed the razor to the monk and asked him to help shave his head. The lens here is an inverted triangle composition, our eyes can easily be directed to Kanbingbei.
The onlookers inquired about what happened to the people next to him. He was told that the thief had been out and hid in the barn. Note that there is a space between Mosuke and Yohei. While Mosuke asked others, he came to watch. When a young samurai enters the empty seat, he is Katsushiro.
The four Katsushiro and Mosuke walked to the courtyard and looked at the warehouse. Through the inquiry of the newly-appearing Katsushiro, we learned that the thief in the barn had kidnapped a child at midnight. In the movie, the farmer in the front of the picture was holding a sickle and was always there. Shaking, everyone couldn't help but worry about their children. It’s also worth mentioning that in many samurai movies, there are people like farmers with wooden sticks who like to reach out and touch their bare belly or chest. I don’t know why. Later, when asked by Mosuke, the farmer said that Kanbingbei agreed to help, but he needed two rice balls, and asked the passing monk to shave his head and borrow the monk’s robes. Everyone was puzzled and could only wait to see Kanbingbei. What action.
Katsushiro and the others returned to the river. Kanbei hadn't finished shave their heads, and a new samurai, Kiku Chiyo, was sitting by the river. Katsushiro encountered the long sword carried by the samurai, and the shocked samurai turned his head back. They clicked, then sat down and continued to look at Kanbingwei. The next front and back shots gave Kanbei and Kikuchiyo close-ups, and the two looked at each other, both seemed to be interested in each other. After shaving his head and changing his robes, the Kanbing guard did not delay much, so he took the rice ball sent by the child's mother and went straight to the warehouse. The crowd followed behind. The monk took Kanbing guard's clothes and a samurai sword.
After entering the atrium, the Kanbing guard walked towards the warehouse, and everyone stayed at the door. At this time, because they were on the other side of the river while watching, Kiku Chiyo, who was at the end of the crowd, violently pushed aside the crowd, walked to the front, kicked the barrel down, and sat on the barrel. Look at Kanbingbei. Kanbingbei was very calm, and calmly said to the almost crazy thief inside that he was just a monk, and came over to deliver food to you and the child. The thief who was trapped in the warehouse at midnight yesterday was very hungry, but he was still very alert and asked the guards to throw the rice balls in. Everyone watched nervously. The guards did so, squatting and threw the rice balls over, then rubbed their hands slowly. Stand up slowly, stand straight while leaning your hands against your abdomen. Suddenly, a lunge rushes in. Everyone is startled. They stretched their necks forward and heard the cry of the child, the yelling of Dantian, and a loud sound. After a short groan, the thief inside rushed out like a swim, ran for a few steps before standing still, the samurai sword around his waist was only a scabbard. The shot of the thief here is an upgraded slow shot, and everyone's reaction is a normal shot, which is in contrast.
Kanbingwei held the thief's knife in his right hand, and came out from the inside with the child in his left hand. The child's mother rushed over. Although the thief is in the foreground and occupies a larger frame, the Kanbingbei and the mother who jumped over are moving and still attract our attention. The thief, Kanbingbei, and the mother of the child, deep in the dark wooden house, the triangular composition enhances the sense of depth of the picture. Kanbingbei threw the knife and went to find the monk to change his clothes. Kiku Chiyo ran to look at the fallen thief and found that the thief was dead. He picked up the thief’s knife and yelled, stepping on the thief’s corpse, looking alive. It seems that the thieves were killed by him. On the other side, Katsushiro, Riki and others all looked at Kanbingbei who was changing clothes with admiration.
After the incident, the Kanbingwei walked on a small country road, with birds and flowers, and the background was a classic samurai soundtrack. The shaking camera and the back of Kanbingbei hinted that there was someone behind Kanbingbei, and Kanbingbei also touched his freshly shaved head as if he was aware of it.
Then Liji four people appeared, Liji hurried forward, ready to ask the samurai for help, but before approaching, he was pushed away by Kikuchiyo who came from behind. Kikuchiyo happily ran to Kanbei like a child. , Kanbingwei asked him what he was doing, but he scratched his head as if he could not speak. At this moment, Katsushiro hurriedly ran over and knelt down directly to ask for an apprenticeship. Kanbingwei asked him to stand up and talked while walking. This is also a triangular composition, and Katsushiro is located between Kanbei and Kikuchiyo. It seems that he has snatched Kikuchi’s apprenticeship. During the conversation between Kanbei and Katsushiro, Kikuchiro walked around, his face anxious. , After watching Kanbei and Katsushiro go together, he turned in a depressed circle and ran after him.
Kanbei and Katsushiro talked as they walked. The roof in the background was always on the right side of the two. Kanbei said that he was just a hapless samurai who had fought many defeats and did not want to let Katsushiro follow. Katsushiro was anxious and ran to In front of Kanbei, it means that I will follow you wherever you go. At this time, the roof of the background is right in the middle of the two, forming a triangular composition. With two samurai swords, the picture has a symmetrical beauty.
Kanbei loudly rejected Katsushiro, and walked forward alone. Katsushiro stood there with his head down, and the four Rikis who followed saw the opportunity. Riki quickly stepped forward, but he was caught up by the back before he even approached. Kikuchiyo pushed away again (out of the picture). Kikuchiyo ran to Kanbingbei. Kanbingbei asked him what was wrong, but he scratched his head again and couldn't speak. Here Kanbei and Kikuchiyo are in front, in the middle of Katsushiro, and the three people of Manzo in the distance, three levels, the sense of depth is formed, and the tripartite figures follow Chai Kanbei.
Kikuchiyo didn’t say anything. He was carrying a knife and spinning around the Kanbing guard a little worriedly. When Katsushiro saw this, he ran forward and annoyed Kikuchiyo for being rude. Don't interrupt, Katsushiro listened to his body and leaned forward and pressed his left hand on the knife. At this moment, Kanbei directly asked Kikuchiyo: "Are you a samurai?" Kikuchiyo looked sad and smiled. As if being poked into the pain, he immediately frowned and lowered his head, then stared, thrust the knife on his shoulder angrily into the ground, and shouted "Of course". Kanbingbei said "Really?" in disbelief. He took Katsushiro and walked forward, ignoring the angry Kikuchiyo who remained in place. Seeing Kanbei and Katsushiro about to enter the city, Liji seized the opportunity to ran and knelt down to ask Kanbei for help.
Everyone returned to the small inn and started cooking rice. The porter came over and scolded him for being stubborn when he saw it. On the other side, the soldier guard in front of the window thought for a long time, stood up and said that it could not be done, indicating that the war was not a joke. The bandits had forty rides, and the village needed four warriors, two backup warriors, plus himself. At least seven samurai are required, and it is more difficult to defend than to attack. A reliable samurai is hard to find. The reward is only three meals. When I am old and tired of fighting, I really can't help. Then I packed my package and prepared to leave. Li Ji couldn't help feeling sad, and cried. When seeing the lively footmen next to him, they laughed and walked over and sat down. Fortunately, he was not born as a farmer. It would be better to be a dog. go to hell. Katsushiro suddenly changed his color and said that you don't understand the peasants' difficulties. The porter replied that it was you who didn't understand the peasants' plight. Otherwise, why didn't you help them? At this time, a footman snatched a bowl of white rice in Yuping's hand, and told Kanbingwei that they were eating tares but let you eat white rice. They gave everything they could give. After listening to the footman's words quietly, Kanbingwei Taking the meal from the porter's hand, raising it to Liji and the others, said, "I won't eat these meals for nothing."
Here a steaming bowl of white rice is in the foreground and occupies the center of the picture, showing how heavy its weight is.
Manzo and Mosuke, who reported back to the village, went to the old man to report that Shino was Manzo's daughter, so Manzo worried that the samurai would molested the woman. The old man called him the bandit was coming, and he still couldn't figure out whether he wanted a head or a beard. .
In the city, Liji found a wandering samurai. In the inn, Kanbei Jangshiro raised a wooden stick behind the door to prepare for a sneak attack. Yopei was so scared to hide behind the pillar in the house. As soon as the wandering samurai entered the door, Katsushiro would He smashed it down, and the wandering samurai had good skills, separated the stick with a knife, and threw Katsushiro aside like a chicken. Kanbingwei immediately got up and apologized, saying that he just wanted to try the other side's martial arts, and asked the other side to join in to fight against the bandits. The wandering warrior said that he only gave too little food, and turned and left. Everyone had no choice but to continue looking for the samurai. Kanbei was observing the samurai on the street, and found one after a while, so he repeated his tricks, Riki went up to invite, Katsushiro hid behind the door, raised a wooden stick to prepare for a sneak attack, and Yuhei hid behind the pillar again.
This time the samurai saw through the sneak attack and smiled. Kanbingwei stood up and greeted him with a thigh when he saw a confidant, and told him the reason. This samurai thought for a while and expressed his admiration for Kanbei, and he was willing to join him. His name was Katayama Gorobei.
Katayama Gorobei and Kanbebei fell in love with each other. The two talked and laughed. Riki and Yopei couldn't help but smile when they saw them, as if things were getting better. However, in the next scene, Yuping’s rice was stolen. Liji, anxious, ran onto the slab with a pair of mud feet, raised his hand and gave him a mouth, sat down with aggrieved grief, and said sadly to the rice tank. I have been very careful, and have been sleeping with the rice tank. At this time, the huge rice tank in the foreground is like a hill, suppressed on the other side of the board shop, forming a triangular composition with Liji and Yopei. Waiting for the samurai to entertain the samurai with rice, lest the samurai get angry and go away. At this time, it is too late to get back to the village. Liji sat down on the ground in despair, and had no idea. Yuping cried and picked up one by one because he slapped Liji just now. The rice grains were scattered, and suddenly a few copper coins rolled out in front of him. It turned out to be Katsushiro.
They had to thank, Katsushiro told them to put the money away quickly, saying that the teacher was back. I saw Kanbei walking in with a man dressed as a peddler, talking and laughing. This person is Kanbei's former comrade Shichiroji. Kanbei thought he was dead in the last defeat, but he was hiding under the water weeds. Escaped from darkness. Kanbei asked Shichiroji, who had escaped to become a hawker, if he wanted to take part in an unfamiliar battle. Shichiroji said yes. Kanbei said that he might be dead this time. Shichiroji just smiled.
On the other side, Goro Bingbei was introduced by the owner of the inn and found a woodcutter warrior Lin Tian Heihachi. Heihachi is a straightforward and lively optimist. When Gorobei sat down, he took the samurai sword from the left to the right of the screen, showing that he was not a novice. Goro Bingbei smiled and sat and watched. Heihachi was uncomfortable. He asked him if he saw someone who chopped firewood for the first time. Goro Bingbei said he had never seen a guy who chopped so much. Happily, he couldn't stop his hand as soon as he started the killing ring. Goro Bingbei asked if he would be interested in hacking thirty bandits, Pingba was taken aback, and he almost flashed his waist when he didn't chop the wood.
As soon as the screen turned, Kanbei took Katsushiro on a stroll to find the samurai, and found that there were two samurai fighting with bamboo poles in a courtyard. In a flash, the bamboo poles of both sides were hitting each other's shoulders. The thin samurai (Kuzo) said He won, but the other refused, so the two confronted with a real sword.
In this duel, the tall samurai was the same as the last time. He screamed at the top of the mountain, screamed and smashed into the past, saying that it was too late and that time, while the thin samurai (Kuzo) avoided the opponent's samurai sword while standing sideways. A knife slashed on the opponent, the victory was divided, and the strong warrior died. Kanbingbei stepped forward to invite. Jiuzang said that he was dedicated to martial arts training and did not want to participate. Kanbingbei told Jiuzang the name of the hotel, hoping that Jiuzang could come after he changed his mind.
Then everyone gathered in the inn and met each other for a while. Kanbei counted the number of people. There were four people including himself, Gorobei, Shichiroji, and Hayashita Heihachi, which was three people worse than expected. As soon as Katsushiro didn't take him there, he was anxious, and hurried over to call Dao-teacher. Kanbingwei couldn't let him talk and said, "I know what you want to talk about. When I was your age, I thought about relying on my ability. Fought meritorious service in combat, and then became the lord of a city, but thinking about it, it was gray-haired. At that time, you had lost your parents and were alone." Everyone was moved by Kanbingwei's words, and they were silent. Jiuzang appeared at the door at this time, and Pingba saw him, but neither of them said a word. Kanbei persuaded Katsushiro to go home. Katsushiro walked away sadly. After that, Riyichi and all the samurai persuaded Kanbei to keep Katsushiro. Kanbei touched his head and had to agree. Then everyone saw Kuzo and removed him. Welcoming in, there is still one person short of time, but time is running out, Kanbingwei decides to leave for the village tomorrow.
At this time, a footman came in and said that there was a samurai who was a drinker, and learned that this matter would also participate. Katsushiro lurked at the door as before, and the two footmen came in with a drunk samurai, and was sapped by Katsushiro's head. . This drunk samurai is exactly Kiku Chiyo played by Toshiro Mifune. His big eyebrows and big looks are the drunken samurai. He plays the role of a leaping gangster and a comical alcoholic. It directly creates a sense of contradiction in him. This role gives people the feeling. It becomes more complicated and full of dramatic tension. Toshiro Mifune’s famous work is directed by Akira Kurosawa’s "Drunk Angels", in which he was repeatedly added by Akira Kurosawa due to his drunken gangster acting too well, and even later the role of the doctor’s Shimura Joe (in this film) "Seven Samurai" Joe Nakashimura plays Kanbei), so he is familiar with playing the role of a drunk samurai, and this drunken drama is also very vivid.
Kikuchiyo recognized Kanbingbei's bald head, and was still worried about Kanbingbei's doubt that he was a samurai. He said that he had been looking for Kanbingbei and took out a genealogy to prove himself. The result was revealed on the spot, because according to the genealogy, Kikuchiyo should be thirteen years old, and the name Kikuchiyo is actually the name of a woman. Next may be Mifune Toshiro's drunk drama is too good, the movie added a new section of Kikuchiyo and Heihachi chase and slapstick that is not in the script, and the tired Kikuchiyo who was teased fell down mumbling "Samurai go to death" Fell asleep. The next day, everyone packed up and set off together. Kiku Chiyo also wanted to follow, but no one paid him any attention.
Here in the village, I learned that the samurai was coming, and Manzo, who was afraid of her daughter being molested by the samurai, forced Shino to cut her hair short and pretend to be a man, but this caused the villagers to panic about the samurai, because Manzo went to the city to find the samurai. One of the four farmers, everyone felt that Manzo must know the samurai better.
On the samurai's side, Kiku Chiyo was following the people on the road, and he couldn't drive them away. When people left, he also followed. When people stopped to eat, he went to the river to catch fish and grilled them. He was very good at survival in the wild.
Liji, Yopei and the samurai came to the mountain village, but because of the panic caused by Wanzo's haircut for their daughter before, let alone someone greeted the samurai, there was no one on the street, the door of the house was closed, and Liji yelled and no one came out. The camera here is divided into four layers, with a strong sense of depth. The front Liji yelled loudly, and the back Yoping walked from the left to the right. Like the samurai behind him, they were all puzzled. The last Chrysanthemum Chiyo was sitting on the wooden fence, carrying a knife, looking at the excitement. During Liji's shouting, Kikuchiyo kept scratching his head and laughing. He seemed to be gloating, and he seemed to have anticipated this situation. The most composed Kanbingbei couldn't help asking what was going on. Just as Liji was jumping anxiously, Shigesuke came from a distance, Liji hurriedly greeted him, and the two discussed quietly and took everyone to the water first. There was the old man in the car cabin, but Kiku Chiyo didn't follow.
Inside the waterwheel hut, the old man sighed and explained to Kanbingwei that the peasants were afraid of everything, the rain and the wind, and they were trembling, which is actually the same today. In the background of the screen, Wanzao and Mosuke are shown. Wanzao made a mistake and lowered his head in shame. When everyone was at a loss, there was a sudden sound of clappers. This was a warning signal that the bandits were coming. The farmers panicked and all ran out holding their children, saying that they could not overdo it with their heads.
In the panic, someone remembered that there was a samurai here, and yelled to ask the samurai for help.
The samurai ran from the waterwheel hut to the center of the village. It can be seen from the footage that Kuzo ran the fastest and Yuping the slowest. The speed itself is an item of martial arts, and the long road formed by the zigzag-shaped village road. The team effectively enhanced the sense of depth in the two-dimensional picture, showing the movement of running.
Seeing the samurai, the peasants surrounded them like saviors. The samurai jumped on the high platform to comfort the peasants, and then asked the details of the thief, but no peasants could answer. The peasants are down, the samurai are on the stage, the peasants are flustered, the samurai is calm, the contrast is obvious, and it is worth noting that there are six people on the stage, and there is no Kikuchiyo, where did Kikuchiyo go.
When Kanbingwei asked who made the clapper sound the alarm, someone responded. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound source. It turned out to be Kikuchiyo. Kikuchiyo jumped up and cursed the villagers, and then his father trembled. Those who came over said that they had no objection, and the samurai also thought that Kiku Chiyo was a bit useful, and counted him as the seventh person. Here, Dad represents the villagers and Heihachi represents the samurai. Both accept Kikuchiyo. Although Kikuchiyo's method created chaos, it also broke the gap between the samurai and the farmer.
Next, we arranged accommodation for the samurai, and Liji went to sleep in the stable by herself, leaving the room to the samurai. Kiku Chiyo found a kimono from the room and put it on him. He said that sleeping with his wife in the stable is also good. Li Ji immediately changed his face and ran to the side to do farm work. From this we know that Li Ji has a story, and he hates it so much. From the performance of the bandits, there may be a woman in his family who was snatched or killed by the bandits. There is also a hidden clue ahead. When Liji and Wanzao were fighting by the river, Wanzao said that he would negotiate with the bandits. Liji quietly said what to offer for the negotiation, your daughter? So Liji probably had his wife or daughter kidnapped or killed by bandits.
The next day, in the sweet voice of birds, Kanbei took Katsushiro and Gorohei to observe and study the terrain of the mountain village. The mountain village is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The northwest is highland. There is a water god forest to the north, a river to the southeast, and a bridge to the east of the river. Most of the houses are in the west of the river. They analyzed the high probability that the bandits would dive down the mountain road to the west of the village to attack the village.
Kanbingbei and others came to the west of the village. Shichiroji was carrying his farmer squad to make a horse-proof fence. Kanbingbei trusted his old comrades very much and left with satisfaction.
Then Kanbingwei and others came to the south, and there were many rivers in the south, so they planned to divert water into the fields to block the horses. And here, Kuzo was training his peasants' martial arts one-on-one. As Kanbei passed by, Katsushiro was attracted by Kuzo's training and couldn't help but stop and take a look.
To the east of the village, Kanbei and Gorobei discussed that the bridge here would be broken to block the enemy's attack from the east, but the scattered houses and waterwheel huts on the east bank of the river had to be abandoned. To the east of the village is Heihachi who is guarding the guard. When the soldiers and guards passed by, he was encouraging his peasant team and told them that although the enemy was terrible, they were also afraid of us.
Without interrupting Heihachi's class, Kanbingwei and others continued to walk north and came to the water god forest in the north of the village. Here, Kiku Chiyo was also training his farmer team. Kikuchiyo himself is not upright, the team can't stand upright, and the bamboo spear is also swayed, but the children have a good relationship with Kikuchiyo, and they all watch and play here. Kikuchiyo called Yopei out for training, only to find that Yopei was really shooting a gun. Kiku Chiyo was very experienced. He seemed to know the reason why the peasants had really shot their guns. He thought that the peasants had robbed them from the defeated soldiers at this time, and there must be others, so he ordered them to hand them over. It is worth mentioning that when we first learned that the bandits were coming to the villagers to gather to discuss countermeasures, we learned from the quarrel that the villagers had killed the deserted warriors.
Kanbingbei and the three walked into the woods of the god of water. Katsushiro was attracted by the flowers all over the ground and stayed for fun. Kanbingbei went back first. Katsushiro folded the flowers and lay down in the sea of flowers, looking at the shadow of the whirling tree above, full of intoxication. Suddenly, Shino dressed as a man ran out from the other side of the stream with a bunch of flowers in his hand. Note that the two are separated by a stream and are in the light and dark, which implies the distance between the two. As soon as Katsushiro saw Shino, he wanted to run with a knife, and when he looked like a villager, he stopped, put away the knife and asked if she was from the village, Shino nodded, Katsushiro asked if she was a woman, Shino hurry up Shaking his head, Katsushiro mumbled suspiciously, "Are you a man?" Shino nodded quickly. When Katsushiro saw this, he was furious. He waved the flowers and rebuked Shino for why men didn't train with guns. The dignified man actually picked flowers and played. The flower in his hand was thrown down angrily, indicating that he would train Shino.
Shino lost the flower and ran away, Katsushiro chased after Shino, and Katsushiro chased after him. Once he tripped over without paying attention, Katsushiro took the opportunity to overpower Shino, and entangled Matsushiro and pressed Shino’s chest. , Was shocked, couldn't help but retreat, Shino also hurriedly fled to the side and gathered up his clothes. The two dared not look at each other, panting heavily, and were silent, the surrounding flowers swayed slightly in the breeze. At this moment, the two are in front of each other in the camera, one to the left and the other to the right. There is no doubt that there is still a sense of distance, but at this time the two are in the same frame, which implies that they are already close.
Kanbei, Gorobei, Kuzo, and Shichiroji Hepachi who returned to the room were looking at the map and discussing battle strategies. Wearing armor, Kikuchiyo entered excitedly with the weapons he wanted from the farmers, and Heiwa Manzo carried these weapons. After entering the house, Kikuchiyo held his hands as if offering treasures to Kanbingwei, saying that it was from Wanzao's family, and the peasants had snatched it from the samurai.
Here, Kiku Chiyo is wearing armor, and he is full of looks. He is happily holding another pair of armor to Kanbingbei, but Kanbingbei is not happy, and asks where he got it, leaving it behind the lens, and Yoppy in the distance has a bitter face. Carrying a burden, looking very worried.
Knowing that the villagers had robbed the weapon from the deserted warrior, Kanbingbei and the other five warriors felt the same way. They were very upset and said nothing. Both Kuzo and Kanbingbei held up their arms. Note that Kikuchiyo is a back figure, implying that he is not a samurai. In this set of front and back shots, the long sword carried by Kikuchiyo has been separated between Kikuchiyo and Kanbei, dividing the boundary and creating tension.
Kikuchiyo was discouraged. For unknown reasons, he thought they were not satisfied with the quality of the weapons. He complained that the Kanbei and others said that they needed weapons before. Shichiroji couldn't help but ran up to grab Kikuchiyo and said it was a peasant killing. The samurai captured it. Kikuchiyo calmly said that I knew it a long time ago. Shichiroji was angry and wanted to fight. Kanbei stopped him and said that only by being a samurai can I understand what it is like. Shichiroji couldn't fight anymore, and threw the gun from the door angrily, frightening Liji who came over.
Inside the house, Heiwa Manzo lowered his head and trembled. Kikuchiyo and the samurai were very upset. At this time, Kuzo calmly said, "I really want to kill the people in this village." The triangle composition was originally very stable. The time-reversed triangle composition has a sense of instability. In addition, the opposition between the peasant and the samurai becomes tense.
Next is the half-samurai and half-farmer Kikuchiyo who rises up to refute the classic fragment of the samurai.
"Hey, what do you think of farmers as bodhisattvas? Huh? What a joke."
"Farmers are the worst and most cunning. They want rice and no wheat, huh, they all have them, and they have everything. Lift up the plank under their straw mats and dig and see. , I’m sure to find a lot of things, rice, salt, beans, wine, hahaha, let’s take a look in the ravine, where there are hidden rice fields, which look honest but can lie the most. Lie no matter what, and kill as soon as a war is fought. Remnants grab weapons. Listen, the so-called peasants are the most stingy, cunning, cowardly, bad-eyed, and low-powered. They are murderers and laugh me to death."
"But who made them like this? It's you, it's your samurai! You all go to death! Once a war is fought, the village will be burnt, the rice fields will be ruined, and the women will be harassed everywhere. !"
After roaring in grief, Kiku Chiyo sat down and sobbed with his head down. The samurai were silent one by one, and they were all very sad with their heads down. After a while, Kanbingbei slowly raised his head, with tears in his eyes, and asked Kiku Chiyo, are you from a farmer? Kiku Chiyo also raised his head with tears in his eyes. He was a little embarrassed by this question, and panicked. He ran out barefoot, and ran into Liji and his father who was found by Liji to quell the troubles.
Katsushiro, who ran back all the way like falling in love, saw Kiku Chiyo, who was wearing armor and holding a gun, sitting sadly on the back of the ground. I don’t know who it was. He walked forward and saw that it was Kiku Chiyo. He just thought with a grin. Saying hello, Kiku Chiyo walked away angrily. After not taking a few steps, the children saw him and ran over yelling, but they were also frightened by Kiku Chiyo. In their confusion, Kikuchiyo walked away alone.
In the evening, Kiku Chiyo ran to the stable and wanted to sleep with Liji in the stable. Liji wanted to leave, but was pulled back by Kikuchiyo. Kikuchiyo told him that this was your home. Would you be more polite if you gave them the main house and sleep in a place like this? After talking, he pulled Liji and lay on the straw mat. After saying a few words, he remembered a lot of the past, and he pulled up the straw tent and fell asleep.
When it rained the next day, everyone stayed in the house. Kiku Chiyo was thinking about women. He went up to the mountain to train in the rain for a long time. Heihachi made a battle flag. The characters below represent farmers, and the six circles on the top refer to samurai, chrysanthemum. Chiyo asked me about me, Heihachi pointed to the triangle and said that it was him, everyone laughed, and Katsushiro took the opportunity to sneak out.
After practicing for a while in the rain, he suddenly found someone under a tree in the distance. Jiuzang hid a knife and hid under the nearby tree and looked out. It turned out to be Manzo’s daughter, Shino. She was dressed as a man and seemed to be waiting for someone. , Even deliberately took out a small comb and straightened his hair, Jiuzang put away the knife and continued to look at it from a distance, then Katsushiro ran over briskly with something in his hands.
It turned out to be white rice wrapped in lotus leaves. Katsushiro knew that the peasants' barnyard rice was hard to swallow, so he sent Shino special white rice that could only be eaten by samurai. Shino was very happy, but said that he would bring white rice to Kuemon's grandmother to eat. Here is also an obvious triangular composition, coupled with the expressions of the two, suggesting that the relationship between the two has made significant progress.
When it was time to eat, Katsushiro wanted to continue to skip the meal. Kuzo, who was cold and warm and knew the reason, said that you have eaten it. This time I won’t eat it. Everyone was puzzled. So Katsushiro took everyone to see you. The grandmother of Kuemon. The grandmother's relatives were all killed by bandits. She was old and weak and very pitiful. Looking down at the white rice, the old grandmother slowly raised her head and said: "I, I want to die sooner, so I don't have to suffer this bitter if I die earlier, but it's the same suffering in the Yin Cao Jifu!" Everyone was very sympathetic and silent. , Heihachi quickly comforted her, Kikuchiyo yelled, Kuzura walked out the door into the rain, Katsushiro caught up to explain the matter between himself and Shino.
After so many things, the relationship between the samurai and the peasants has improved a lot. The samurai saved food to give to the children in the village. Kikuchiyo even took this opportunity to make a target.
Finally the wheat is ripe, Kanbingwei and others advised the villagers to harvest as soon as possible, and then divert the water to form a trench, and to destroy the bridge at the east of the village. The three residents and waterwheel huts on the other side of the bridge should also be removed.
Among the three residents was Shigeru and the waterwheel hut was the old man’s residence. Everyone was shocked after hearing the samurai’s advice. The Kanbei guard held the child, stood up, and reluctantly explained to everyone that there was no way to defend the place far away from the village. , Everyone is sad, but had to accept this situation. The triangular composition is guided by everyone's eyes, and Kanbingbei is pacing around, so it is easy for our visual center to fall on Kanbingbei. He is holding the child, which also means that the relationship between the samurai and the farmer has become closer.
The samurai began to mobilize the peasants before the war, and Goro Biebe asked everyone to act in small groups. As soon as he finished speaking, Kiku Chiyo walked to the middle and shouted: "Listen, everyone, take good care of the lady tonight!" Everyone burst into laughter, and the toothless old ladies were also overjoyed, showing that the market for sex jokes is wide.
At this time, Shigeru stood up and threw the gun to the ground, expressing why people living on the opposite bank should abandon their homes to defend others. He led several villagers living on the opposite bank to try to run, but was drunk by the soldiers and guards. Bingbe frightened them back. The wind and sand are full of people, one person to the others, can't help but remind people of the red star Tsubakiro in "Intentional Stick". As the so-called mercy is not in charge of soldiers, Kanbingbei, as the leader of the samurai village collective at this time, showed a tough and stern side.
Kanbingwei gathered the villagers to speak, and reprimanded them loudly, telling them that this is the way to defend others. Only by defending others can they defend themselves. They only need to die first. They said harshly about who will do something in the future, while looking at the people, they slapped the knife at the same time. Into the sheath with a sound. Behind the master, Katsushiro was so frightened that he was silent, shivering, and only dared to take a peek at him. Shigeru did not know the general average principle.
After the unity of thinking, everyone began to work, and the farmers began to harvest wheat. Kiku Chiyo was very excited when he saw the harvest scene. He found that the women in the village who came out to work were even more excited. He ran up to a girl, grabbed the sickle, and offered to help the girl cut twice as much, but he wanted the girl to be nice to him. The girl was so frightened that she did not dare to speak, but Kiku Chiyo screamed happily and ran to the side and cut it off.
On the other side, Pingba observed the next four weeks, and said to Liji that it is better to work with men and women and let Liji get married quickly. Liji's smile instantly solidified when he heard it, and he ran away with his head dull. Everyone went to look for him later, only to see the chopped bamboo bushes left by Liji after getting angry. The chaotic broken bamboo branches here are like swords, which not only symbolizes Liji's anger, but also hints that the war is coming. Then Pingba found Liji, who was vigil at night, and wanted to talk to him, but Liji still refused to confide in his heart. (Who would have thought that Pingpachi would be accidental because of Liji's unspeakable concealment)
At night, Kanbei and Gorobei got up skillfully and prepared to go on a night patrol. Katsushiro was still sleeping soundly. Gorobei asked if he wanted to wake him up. Kanbei said to let the child sleep. When they were leaving, Katsushiro chanted Shino's name, Kanbei and Gorobei had some doubts, and then went to watch the night. They first went to the most uneasy place. Sure enough, Kiku Chiyo stuck a knife in the pile of wood and lay on the side, sleeping soundly. They hid the knife for Kikuchiyo, and threw a stone into the water to wake Kikuchiyo. Kikuchiyo hurriedly rolled to the pile of wood, yelling for someone, then looked ahead and touched the knife with his hands, only to find The knife was gone, so I had to pick up a piece of wood and carefully look for the enemy. At this time, Kanbei and Gorobei came out from the side and said that fortunately it was us. If you are a thief, you are dead. Throw the knife at Kikuchiyo and leave. Kikuchiyo, who was still in shock, was discouraged and knelt down in shame. Land, lost the spirit of the past.
While the villagers are busy with farm work, they are building fortifications, which are neat and tidy. The enthusiasm is working in full swing, and Yupei is even a little worried that the bandit will not come yet, and the samurai eats here for nothing. The children’s nice nursery rhymes came: "Sparrows squaw, crows squaw."
Kikuchiyo laughed at Yuping's thin horse like a big mouse, and had to ride it. Regardless of Pingba's obstacle, Kiku Chiyo jumped on his horse and ran along the village road. He rode into the path behind the hut. Everyone couldn't see him. After a while, the horse came out from the intersection on the other side, but he didn't see Kikuchiyo. Everyone was taken aback, and Kikuchiyo limped behind his ass. I walked out on the ground and turned everyone on their backs with laughter. Kanbei and Gorobei saw people who were laughing and laughing from a distance. Gorobei said that the bandits would not come after the wheat was beaten. Everyone said if they would not come. Kanbei said that if they thought so, it would be dangerous. Everyone thinks it doesn't matter anymore, but this is the most dangerous time. After finishing talking, let Goro Bingbei inform everyone to return to their posts.
At this time, Katsushiro and Shino were among the flowers in the back mountain. Shino was sad that he was a farmer and Katsushiro was a samurai, but then he made a lot of determination to say what it would be like! Then he stared at Katsushiro with two wonderfully shining eyes. The shot here is very exciting. Katsushiro is in front of him in the dark. The main picture is Shino's left face in the light. His eyes are shining, and his mouth is slightly opened as if staring at a prey. Then zoomed in, as if Shino raised her head and moved closer, the shadow moved quickly on Shino’s face, and at the same time the camera crossed the axis. shift.
After shifting the axis to the right, we see Shino’s right face. Katsushiro has only a narrow shadow. Shino’s eyes are still hot, and his eyes seem to be breathtaking. He still opens his mouth slightly. The hair on the right is as short as the left, but more visible. The mess, coupled with Shino's shrugging shoulders and the soundtrack, we can feel Shino's strong feelings. Afterwards, Shino lay on the flower bushes, chest ups and downs, panting heavily, but Katsushiro seemed to be frightened, not daring to move. Shino saw this and let out a cry of laughter, covering his eyes with both hands and saying, "Coward, it's alright." What about a samurai. At this moment, a few neighs of horses broke the world of the two. Katsushiro and Shino searched for the three horses of the bandit spies. Katsushiro hurried back to report to Kanbei.
Shichiroji calmly reported the trail of the bandit, and Katsushiro reported the bandit's horse in a panic, compared to Katsushiro's young and recklessness. Afterwards, Kanbingbei decided to let Liji comfort the villagers, and then planned to sneak in with others to prevent the bandit spies from discovering that there were warriors in the village. However, Kiku Chiyo fell behind. He learned the news of the bandit through the farmer Kiku Chiyo. He walked wildly in the village and was dragged into the house by Heihachi, but he was still spotted by the bandit spies. So they decided to hunt down the three spies who ran away. Kuzo, Kikuchiyo, and Katsushiro went, and Kanbei told Katsushiro to watch from a distance without using hands.
The three of them took a shortcut and got to the horse that Katsushiro had found. He sat under the tree and fiddled with wild flowers and other bandits. Kikuchiyo climbed to the tree and lay ambush. Katsushiro hid in the next flower bush, but was very nervous, and the flowering branches nearby trembled with him. The bandit spies came back. Jiuzang made a preemptive move. He hacked one person to death with a knife. Then he chased and killed one person and ran away. At the same time, Kiku Chiyo from the tree jumped down and knocked one person to the ground, hitting him with a fist. Afterwards, Jiuzou called Katsushiro twice and said that it was all right to let him come out.
The captured bandit spies were dragged back to the village. The villagers were angry and hugged them to kill the bandit. The samurai tried their best to stop the bandit, saying that the bandit was a captive and had said everything to beg for mercy and could not kill him, but the farmer We are really bitter mountain thief for a long time, hate the mountain thief too deep, still yelling to kill the mountain thief.
Suddenly, the shouting crowd calmed down. Following people's gaze, we saw the long-sick and emaciated grandmother of Kuemon's family, tremblingly holding a pickaxe, and walking slowly. The samurai couldn't talk any more at this time, so they had to push away the crowd and walk out. In the crowd, under the advice of the old man, Liji volunteered to help the old woman kill the bandit.
After discussion, the samurai decided to attack the thief’s Jiufeng lair based on the information provided by the captives. Using the horses of the bandits and the horses of Yohei, Liji, Kuzo, Heihachi, and Kikuchiyo (riding Yohei's thin horses) headed towards the mountain at night and arrived at dawn.
The four secretly looked in the crack of the door, the bandits and the women slept soundly. So the four discussed, first set fire to the house, and then guarded the door to kill those who escaped.
Liji ran to set the fire (so he didn't see this woman), the remaining three people continued to look inside, only to see a lying woman awake, sitting up quietly, she stared blankly before her eyes, as if still Recall the tragic thoughts in the dream. She was young and beautiful, and the full of sadness was even more charming, and her brows and eyes seemed to have death.
At this time, the fire set by Liji ignited. The woman saw the fire and heard the sound of the fire. She was instinctively startled and shrank back. She wanted to open her mouth for help. But then she calmed down immediately and kept silent, showing her face due to convulsions. And the smile that appeared, casually looked at the roof where the tongue of fire had spread. The three people outside looked silly and looked at each other.
The fire grew stronger and Liji ran back. The bandits and women in the cottage also woke up and fled out one after another. So the four guarded the gate, let go of the woman who ran out, and then saw the bandits who had escaped and chopped the other. After hacking many people to death, the four of them hid behind the stones and happily looked at the furious bandits across the small river that exited from the other side.
At this moment, Liji found that a woman came out of the door just now, with a raging fire behind her, and she had a wonderful smile of contentment on her face, watching everything that happened with satisfaction.
Liji immediately jumped and ran to the woman. When she saw Liji, she lost her smile. There was the sound of arrows and gunshots in the distance, but the two people still stared at each other motionlessly. Soon the woman let out a wailing wailing, then turned and ran into the burning cottage.
Liji hurriedly chased after him, but was pushed out by the scorching fire wave and fell to the ground. He got up and continued to rush in, repeated several times, it was difficult to rush in, but he still didn't want to give up.
Pingba couldn't help but jumped out from behind the stone, went up and hugged him, and pulled the struggling Liji back. Suddenly, there was a blast of gunfire, and Pingba fell to the ground in response. Kikuchiyo and Kuzo hurried to meet them, and ran out with Heihachi.
The fire was still burning with the help of the wind.
On the thief's side, the heat wave invaded, and people turned their backs on their backs.
On the other side, everyone who escaped put Pingba on the ground, and the irritable Kiku Chiyo slapped Liji directly and asked him what was going on with the woman. Liji squatted directly on the ground, crying and shouting that it was my lady. Both Kuzo and Kikuchiyo were stunned. When Kuzo released his hand, Heihachi, who was supported, fell straight forward and fell to the ground, no longer breathed.
The wind blows up and the hero died. The samurai and farmers held a funeral for Heihachi. First is the Great Vision. The peasant women are surrounded on the left and below, the farmers holding the
