Looking back at modern history, the Japanese invaders burned and plundered our Chinese soil, did nothing wrong, and countless Chinese compatriots were killed by them, and their sins were so great that we still cannot forgive them for what they did.
But despite this, there are still people who choose to abandon their hatred and extend a helping hand to a Japanese soldier. The goodness of his heart prompted him not to see death and not to save, and he believed that evil was rewarded with evil, and good was rewarded with good.
The sons and daughters of China believe in the cycle of cause and effect, and demons will also be influenced by angels. What others do is someone else's choice, and their own choice only needs to be ashamed of themselves. And this man is not a saint, nor is he a rich man.
It was such a peasant in Henan who rescued a Japanese soldier, raised the Japanese soldier for 47 years without compensation, and later brought the Japanese soldier back to Japan with the help of his son.
This simple peasant was called Sun Bangjun, and this Japanese soldier was called Ishida, and Ishida was one of the Japanese soldiers who invaded China at that time, and left them in China after Japan's defeat.
After Japan announced its unconditional surrender, the Japanese army fled in a hurry, and there was no way to withdraw all Japanese troops from China in a short period of time.
At that time, Sun Bangjun looked at him in a daze, and his heart was very unhappy. Because Sun Bangjun has always been a warm-hearted person, he is destined not to ignore it, and in the end he has made up his mind to help this homeless person.
His inner drive made Sun Bangjun slowly approach the tramp, but the people around him stopped him and told him that there was something wrong with the clothes the tramp was wearing. This tramp is dressed in a Japanese military uniform, which shows that he is a hateful Japanese soldier.
This discovery immediately weakened his sympathy a lot. Because people who experienced the brutal war knew better the feelings of hatred for japanese soldiers at that time, we could not pretend to be the latter and comment on this phenomenon indiscriminately.
At that time, how much pressure Sun Bangjun was under, we can imagine, people around him told him not to be nosy, and he was still a heinous Japanese soldier, and the sins committed by Japan were not forgivable.
Sun Bangjun faced the questioning and anger of the surrounding villagers, he bowed his head and did not know how to face it. His family had also been persecuted by the Japanese, and he also had a blood feud with the Japanese soldiers, but he softened when he looked at the poor tramp in front of him.
He sent the tramp to the police station and asked them to deal with it. But the police department told Sun Bangjun that after Japan announced its surrender, all Japanese soldiers had withdrawn from China, and their police department had no right to detain Japanese soldiers.
The police station's answer made Sun Bangjun helpless again, if this tramp had no one to adopt, just leave him aside, he would definitely not live.
At that time, Sun Junbang's choice was rational, and he chose great love. When he looked at the already delirious Japanese, he knew that if he did not help him, the Japanese soldier might not have a way to live, and Sun Junbang took him to his home with his wife's consent.
Soon after, everyone around the village learned that Sun Junbang had adopted a Japanese soldier. Many villagers came to his door and told him not to do this, because at that time, the Japanese devils did nothing evil in China and did not deserve sympathy.
But Sun Junbang still insisted on his choice. The villagers did not understand, and he went to the respected people in the village to persuade the villagers, because he knew that only in this way could Ishida stay in the village.
After settling down in the village, Sun Junbang took Ishida to ask him for medical treatment, and did everything himself, taking care of Ishida meticulously.
Under the care of Sun Bangjun for a period of time, the homeless man's condition finally improved, not only the ability to move was restored, but with the help of Sun Bangjun, he had his own Chinese name, Li Tong, and later obtained a Chinese hukou, and was therefore accepted by everyone.
Later, Ishida's illness improved, and Sun Junbang hoped to help Ishida find his family and reunite them as a family.
Later, Sun Junbang got older, he was always worried and worried about Ishida, he told his son that he must protect Ishida, let him live healthily, and in the future must find an opportunity for Ishida to find his family and let him return to Japan.
In 1964, Sun Junbang died, and his son complied with his last wishes and continued to take care of Ishida. He treated Ishida as if he were his own relative, without any complaints.
Li Tong lived in the Sun family in this way, although there were some small episodes in the middle, but in general, Li Tong spent the rest of his life happily. When Sun Bangjun was old, he did not worry about his wife and children, but told his family to help Li Tong find his relatives and let him return to his roots.
It was not until 1972, when China and Japan announced the establishment of diplomatic relations, that a new page in relations between the two countries was finally opened at the national level. With the efforts of the sons and daughters of the Sun family, Li Tong's identity was constantly confirmed to the Japanese side. In the end, Li Tong's identity was confirmed, and in the midst of all kinds of reluctance, Li Tong returned to Japan.
After returning to Japan, he did not forget how he was treated by Chinese people at that time. He set up a foundation to collect donations for China and actively promote friendly exchanges between China and Japan.
In fact, this is a cycle of friendship between people, although everyone does not ask for returns, but we all know that with the payment, the harvest will follow. The story of Elder Sun and Li Tong is the best proof.
Ignoring the obstruction of others, Elder Sun put his compassion to the maximum, and used practical actions and emotions to impress others and this Japanese tramp. Elder Sun paid without asking for anything in return, allowing the homeless man to regain his life.
This move not only opened a new life for the two people, but also increased the thickness of life and maximized the value of life. After Li Tong returned to China, he did not forget his nurturing feelings, worked hard to contribute to Sino-Japanese friendly relations, and had a high sense of identification with our Chinese culture from his bones.
This is the result of Elder Sun's efforts, and the fearless spirit and great love are worth learning. And our current China, even more powerful and excellent, no longer need to be bullied, thanks to the sacrifice and dedication of the predecessors.
Although Japan has committed unforgivable crimes, we Chinese sons and daughters have a tolerant and compassionate heart.
People are equal to each other, as long as you treat others well, then even people with iron hearts will be impressed. Those who have persecuted our fellow citizens will eventually be punished as they deserve.
