chasing herons 西村寿行 3044Words 2018-03-18
The devilish sun is like a huge fireball, radiating mercilessly. The short figures of Zhongxiang, Yi Neng and Nengzi fell on the sand dune, and the staggering shadow on the ground, like a dying fox, moved staggeringly. Nakagoto is at the forefront. Yi Neng staggered along with a wooden stick, as if trudging on a muddy road.Every step is quite difficult.The sand was boiling hot. Noko fell down, supported her arms hard, and gritted her teeth before getting up. Man is thirsty to the extreme. They were wearing green shirts that had been ripped off from the corpses, exuding an unpleasant stench. The clothes stuck to their bodies hot as if they had been roasted, sucking out the last bit of water in their bodies.

The skin is shriveled and almost burnt. The whole world is like a well-burned brick kiln, so stuffy that people can't breathe.The hot air he inhaled scalded his throat slightly. This continued until the next day. At night, with the help of the moon, it moved step by step in the direction of the Tademet Plateau.Yi Neng was still carrying the leather water bag from the camel's saddle. The water had dried up long ago, and he was reluctant to throw it away.During the daytime, I just dug a hole in the sand dunes and squatted in it tormenting.After walking all night, even though he was extremely sleepy, it was difficult to fall asleep in the scorching heat.

It was so easy to stay until night, dragging our tired body and set off again. Death approached them step by step. The Tadaimet Plateau stands far away on the other side of the horizon. It seems to be a mirage in the mirage, which makes you inaccessible. I haven't drank a drop of water for three days, and drank the little bit of urine I had with my hands. That was hours ago. Physical strength has been completely exhausted.I fell down and couldn't get up again.The only way to survive is to walk, keep walking. The cruel reality has made them completely desperate. It is clear that they have reached the edge of life, and everything will end soon.

Taixiang became extremely small, extremely white, and extremely bright, making people dare not raise their eyes, and only sand, hot sand, came into view. Nakagoto stopped in his tracks. Yi Neng also stopped. The two turned around slowly, where is Nengzi?Didn't she follow behind all the time? Nakagoto walked back with one foot deep and one foot shallow.He saw Nengzi lying on his back on the ground. Nakago came to her side. Nengzi closed her eyes tightly. Zhongxiang knelt down, and Nengzi still had a very weak breath.Zhongxiang couldn't cry anymore, he shook her arm with all his strength, and his chapped lips didn't move.Nakago pulled the Tsing Yi over to cover her face and breasts.

Nakagoto lowered his head, as if he was staring at a dead body. He could only feel the sand shaking, and the ground shaking the dead body that was about to wither. He fell and took a mouthful of sand.He was still somewhat conscious, and he stretched his hand into his mouth and slowly picked it. Yi Neng also folded back. He knelt on the ground with his knees bent.stare blankly. "do you died?" It took Yi Neng a lot of effort to say a word. Nakago didn't answer.His vision narrowed, and Yi Neng in front of him was already blurred.He was lying on the sand on his back, like a dead tree.

Yi Neng stared at everything in front of him, and he also collapsed on the ground. Not a breath of wind. The sun still ruthlessly shone on the three corpse-like bodies. Nakago was in a trance, as if he had stepped into the devil's palace. He seemed to see a dark green ghost.Lying on his face, are you going to eat him? Nakago twisted his body, still clearly remembering the pistol on his waist. But he couldn't do what he wanted, and he didn't even have the slightest strength.The hand seemed to lose consciousness. "Finally woke up." The green ghost spoke. Nakago felt as if he was speaking French, and his consciousness gradually became clear.

He saw clearly that in front of him was an old man in green clothes, squatting beside him, looking at him carefully. Oh, and he was lying in a tent with thick canvas blocking the sun's rays. Nakago turned his face away slowly, and when he saw Yineng and Nengzi lying here, he breathed a sigh of relief. "You are?" "I am Lushud of the Tualaigu tribe." It was a wrinkled face. Lu Shude handed Zhongxiang a leather bag containing water, and Zhongxiang drank greedily. "Thank you for saving us!" His beard was beaded with water, and he was full and full. "Two days ago, I saw you on the road."

"Two days ago?" "I thought you died in your sleep." "Where is this?" "Near the Tademet Mountain, how did you make it look like this?" The old man asked while preparing the meal. "Attacked by a group of young people." "Young man—this is absolutely impossible!" "They are wearing Tsing Yi, but they are all white." "Let me tell you, we Tualaigu people don't do bandit work." There was a bit of pride in Lu Shude's expression, and he smiled.There was a scent coming out of the pot, as if oysters were being stuffed.

"Is your stomach empty already?" "Ugh--" Nakago nodded, and then kicked Yi Neng with his toe. Yi Neng also woke up from his lethargy. "Get up and drink some water." Yi Neng looked up at the short roof in a daze. Zhong Xiang handed the leather water bag to Yi Neng. "I said it's time for the lady to get up too?" Yi Neng asked after drinking water. "It was a stroke of luck that we survived a catastrophe and were saved again." Only then did Yi Neng realize that his injured left foot had been bandaged. Nakago shook Noko. She opened her eyes slightly.

"Please eat less pimples, you can't eat more." Ruschud served the soup on three plates.The soup is stuffed with oysters, green onions, and meat, and it is fragrant and hot. Zhong Xiang and Yi Neng gobbled it up, and immediately ate everything, while Neng Zi only ate a little. "Where is the nearest village?" Yineng asked. "Gorea, it's about 200 kilometers to the northwest, and I'm going back to my home there." "Two hundred kilometers? What about the Tadaimet plateau?" "Go south from here for about twenty kilometers." Two hundred kilometers is so long, Yi Neng feels a little scary.He saw only one camel tethered outside the tent. The old man probably used it to carry goods, and he certainly didn't have too much water and food prepared.

"Where are you going?" "It's going to the Tadaimet Plateau, but we look like this..." "Are you going to conduct geological surveys? Or what?" "You guessed right, exactly what you said." "You don't have to worry, I'll draw a map for you. There is a castle called Eagle on the Tademet Plateau. If you get there, you will be saved." "The castle called Eagle?" Yi Neng's mood suddenly became tense, and he looked at Zhongxiang. "What did you say?" Zhongxiang asked quickly. "It's a castle built on a rocky peak. There are many vultures there. People here call it Vulture City. Probably a long time ago, there was a disease among the Tualaigu people. It's over. Thanks to the priest and master there who saved our Tualaigu, only the Tualaigu can approach the Eagle City, and the God who protects us lives in the Eagle City." "Do many people live there?" "About twenty or so Monsieur the Abbe lived there." "Is it far?" "It's still three days' journey from here to the Tademet Highlands. If you go in Tsing Yi, they will welcome you." "Can't you not wear Tsing Yi?" "Yes, I've heard it's not." "When was that castle built?" "About thirty years ago, I heard that they flew there on a big eagle and built a castle." "Thirty years ago..." Zhongxiang said to himself. Didn't he tell Yi Neng such a legend at the beginning of this operation?In the Second World War, there was a young man nicknamed "Vulture of the Tropic of Cancer", who was a Hitler Nazi. He once drove a supersonic fighter jet and shot down dozens of coalition planes over North Africa. However, a supersonic fighter jet cannot seat more than 20 people, Nakago put a small question mark in his mind. "Do you understand what's going on around that castle?" "It is surrounded by high cliffs, and there is a winding stone path leading directly to it." "Is there no other way up?" "I don't think there are any. If you want to force it, you will risk your life." "Is the area around the castle large?" "There is also a forest nearby, and there seems to be some kind of river..." "yes?" In that case, it would be no surprise that the plane landed. "That's probably the lair of the eagle organization. Bourguiba probably fled there with the prime minister's daughter." Noko's eyes also regained their luster. "may be." Yi Neng nodded, he thought so too. "A vulture?" Nakagoto was very excited. "This time, I finally found the source of the phrase Jiutiao Tropic of Cancer." "Yes! What's the next step?" "Let's go and have a look!" "Just leave in this embarrassment?" Yi Neng looked at his attire. "Who's got time for those damn things, and who's going to admire your majesty?" "That's true." "I'll go with you too!" "Go back to me, mother——that's not where you went." "Zhongxiang! I think you want to have it all to yourself!" "You give me less bullshit! Sow?" "Who saved you, have you forgotten?" "I still have the face to say, don't I repay your kindness with my body?" "Repay with your body, listen, is this what a man said?" "Yineng, put the sow down for me." "Do it yourself." Yi Neng turned over and turned his face away, all he could think about was the vultures in the Tropic of Cancer. The base camp of the human trafficker organization is Jiucheng. The group of so-called young people who appeared on the way must have been instructed by Jiucheng, so anyone who approaches this area means death.However, the enemy would never have imagined that they miraculously survived. The future is full of thorns.
