The Stories About 龙的传人

My tears are dropping. My heart is bleeding. These stories just keep coming, about human, about us, CHINESE. 

When the troops asked Premier Wen for suggestions on the phone that the road was completely damaged and they couldn't march on to the destination for the rescue work, he paused and replied: "It's those people who raised you, you figure it out by yourself. (人民养育了你们子弟兵，你们看着办。)" Then, he put down the phone. Guess there is nothing cannot do when it comes to saving people. 

Never thought we would have another Premier to be compared with Zhou (周总理，人民的总理)... maybe there is one today! 

因为救援的直升机很难降落在废墟上，非常危险，所有的伞兵都在参加任务前写了遗嘱。The helicopters could not land to the deadliest region so rescue workers could not get in. It came to the airforce. Paratroopers had to fly in with signed petitions of possible sacrificing their lives. Then they parachuted down from 4000 metres high, everyone was safe.

一个救援人员听到了废墟的底下有一个小孩儿喊救命。他告诉记者：“虽然救她的过程几乎不可能，但是如果我放弃了，那个救命声音的阴影会笼罩我一辈子。” From CBC news, a rescuer told the journalist he heard a child's voice for help deep in the debris. He could not see her. And they had no idea how to get her out because of the sophisticated situations. But they started trying. Why? "If I failed to get her out alive, that voice will taunt me for the rest of my life." 

5月16日下午6点半，离地震发生整整100小时。虚弱得已近昏迷的刘德云被救援官兵抬出来时，看到了自己的女儿。随即，他的目光指向自己的左手腕。女儿扑上去，发现父亲左手腕上，歪歪扭扭写着一句话：“我欠王老大3000元。”经过324医院野战医疗队紧急抢救，刘德云第二天就清醒过来。他告诉女儿：“如果出不来，手腕上那句话就是留给你的遗嘱。”刘德云是什邡市汉旺镇人，工厂职工。地震发生时，他和一起玩牌的另3人都被埋在了废墟下。不知道过了多久，刘德云有些绝望了。此时，他用还能活动的右手，掏出随身携带的圆珠笔，在左手腕上写下了“遗嘱”——他不想欠着账离开。刘德云说，写下这句话后，他安心了许多。黑暗中，时间慢慢流逝，刘德云实在是太困了，好几次险些睡去。于是，他拼命地去想3岁外孙的笑脸，又狠命打自己的耳光。在脸被自己打肿后，刘德云终于等来了曙光。但让刘德云遗憾的是，就在他被救出来之前几小时，坚持了90多个小时的同伴对他说了最后一句话：“刘哥，我撑不下去了，我先走了，你好好活下去。”说到这里，刘德云泪流满面：“你个瓜娃子！这么久都坚持过来了，这会咋就不行了？
A man who was rescued 100 hours after the earthquake was found on his left hand written: "I owe 3000 Yuan(RMB currency)." While being asked what that meant, he said: "Just to tell my daughter to pay it back if I could not get out alive. I don't want to leave with debt." 

前日东莞石龙联步行街本是某品牌可乐的选秀现场，当地团委和青年志愿者组织联合商家把它变成了义卖和募捐的现场。当天下午，一名乞丐老伯沿路乞讨经过时，被志愿者的叫卖声吸引。“他开始就是看了看，我们不断说捐献一点爱心，让他口渴了买点可乐。”志愿者回忆说，老伯先是愣了下，后来要掏钱买可乐，听了几句灾情介绍后又看了看海报。“没想到他居然把口袋里面所有的钱都翻了出来，皱巴巴的。”随后，老伯拿了瓶可乐快步消失在人群中。“我们追着他，他也不理，他不说自己叫什么。”一名负责宣传的青年志愿者赶紧用相机拍下了这一幕，志愿者们只记得老伯说了一句，向社会讨了这么多年，也该向国家捐点了。

The beggars and disabled people on the streets donated all they have.

They keep coming. My tears keep dropping. My heart keeps bleeding.

But with this, life is only stronger!
