Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Black Storm
According to the expected date, Master Tuo and the others did not come back.
There was a water shortage in the regiment.Two days ago, Luo Zhengxiong had ordered that the daily water consumption per person be halved.At present, it seems that this is not enough, and it has to be reduced. Luo Zhengxiong will pass on the order, and the total amount of each group will be reduced by half, so that the group can control it evenly.
As soon as the news came out, people's hearts became a little flustered. Luo Zhengxiong was worried about the female soldiers at first, but unexpectedly, the female soldiers didn't say anything, and it was all male compatriots who made a fuss.Luo Zhengxiong felt a little unhappy in his heart. At any time, he didn't want to hear voices complaining, especially gay men.But right now is not the time for him to get angry, he must find a way to calm everyone down.
The team has been readjusted according to Wan Yue's suggestion, and the first group is currently staying at the survey point. The temporary camp is not far from the wild boar well, and Wan Yue is also inside.Luo Zhengxiong sent someone to ask Yu Hai to come to the meeting overnight.It's not a good omen that Fifth Master Tuo didn't come back on time. Luo Zhengxiong had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he wanted to be the first to formulate countermeasures.
Nearly midnight, Yu Hai rushed back to the camp.Luo Zhengxiong asked eagerly: "How is it? Is there anything abnormal in the first group?"
"A little bit, but it's not a big problem. I just finished a meeting with them and emphasized it." Yu Hai looked very optimistic, and he was such a person.
Luo Zhengxiong presided over the first emergency meeting of the Special Second Regiment, he said: "Right now we have two bones to chew on, one is water, if something really happens on the road, we must rush to find the water source before the water is completely cut off. The second is the coming black storm. According to the wind season, the black storm will come every year at this time, and we must prepare for it in advance." Yu Hai took over and said: "After the wild boar well is tested, I want to gather everyone Get up, there are many people and strength is great, and we have to prepare for the worst when dealing with the black storm." Both Luo Zhengxiong and Yu Hai have personally experienced the black storm. There are no words to describe it, it seems that it is possible to destroy the entire desert.
Liu Wei, the deputy head of the team, did not quite agree with Yu Hai's opinion: "Will the team's morale be affected if it pulls up and then withdraws?"
"It's two different things. We have to think about safety first," Yu Hai said.
Liu Wei answered, "As a soldier, you keep talking about safety, don't you have too much confidence?"
"But we can't be blindly confident. You haven't encountered a black storm, have you?" Yu Hai asked, somewhat dissatisfied.Luo Zhengxiong stopped Yu Hai with his eyes, but unfortunately the light was too dark, and Yu Hai didn't look at him at all.Luo Zhengxiong was familiar with Hai. The two had worked in the same battalion before and separated later, but they had similar personalities and could be called life-and-death friends.Luo Zhengxiong didn't know Liu Wei very well. He only knew that he was a man. Among the cadres at the regiment level, he was famous for his mighty strength. He was not even inferior to Luo Zhengxiong. Everyone called him a unicorn.He led the team to quell Beiqiang's two rebellions. In one of them, he was surrounded by a tribe, and he didn't show any fear on his face. In the end, he forced the leader with a short knife, and he was able to escape. Stand out.Later, the man still let him shoot and fell.
"Fuck his grandma, dare to shoot me!"
The words he scolded at that time became scaring words in the Beiqiang area. Wang Zhen still called his name at the meeting, criticizing him for his recklessness and not being reckless even if he was not afraid of death. But after the meeting, he was quickly promoted to the deputy team.If he hadn't made a mistake later, he would have formed a positive group long ago, and it would not have been his turn to be Luo Zhengxiong's deputy at all.
The two are still arguing, one insists on withdrawing, and the other says not to join the Special Second Regiment if you are timid.Luo Zhengxiong knew in his heart that Liu Wei was acting in a fit of anger. The progress of the second team he led was slow, three days behind schedule, and it hadn't reached the required camping distance yet, so he was anxious and wanted to catch up with the progress.
Luo Zhengxiong hurriedly smoothed things over: "You two, fight when you get together, when will you be able to calm down and discuss issues?" The two of them stopped talking when they heard the head blamed them.Yu Hai handed Liu Wei a cigarette, Liu Wei took it, and smoked violently.
The wild wind is howling outside, but inside, everyone's heart sinks.It is true that Liu Wei has never encountered a black storm, which is probably a fluke, but in his heart, he still dare not underestimate the coming storm.
After waiting for five days in a row, Fifth Master Camel and the others still had no news.Zhang Xiaotian, who was in charge of searching for the water source, did not move, and the situation became serious.The water consumption has been reduced to the minimum, and it can no longer be reduced, but the water in the skin is getting less and less, which makes people worry even at a glance.In the middle, scout Kobayashi came back with a letter.After reading the letter, Luo Zhengxiong felt a little relaxed, and the things he worried about would finally not happen, so that he could concentrate on dealing with the things in front of him.However, what Xiao Lin said in the report suddenly made his heart heavy.
"The division commander said that the current situation is very complicated. The accidental death of the Special First Regiment triggered a crisis of confidence. The Corps is being secretly purged. Only the Second Division has three regiment-level cadres who have been cleared out. He told us to be cautious, although it is currently impossible to prove who There are problems, but the situation is changing and anything is possible."
Everything is possible!That being said, his suspicions could not be completely eliminated, and the teacher did not guarantee that the object of his suspicions was absolutely innocent, but only said that he had conducted a search during the matching process and found nothing suspicious.You must keep your eyes open!This is the advice and request given to him by the teacher in the letter.He lit the letter, looking at the flame, he suddenly thought, will the tragedy of the special group really repeat itself in the second group?
Everything is possible!
Regardless of other people's objections, Liu Wei resolutely brought the second group up and temporarily stationed at a place 50 kilometers away from the camp.This move made Luo Zhengxiong and others worried, and the group that was planning to withdraw had to move the temporary camp one station forward because of this move.Regarding the water shortage, Liu Wei answered very simply: "Even if you only drink two sips of water a day, you must catch up with the tasks you left behind." High fever, the high fever came very suddenly. In the middle of the night, the two of them burned like fireballs, and the young instrument player among them even talked nonsense.The situation improved a little after dawn, but it was obviously impossible to start work. In this way, an instrument was forced to stop work.Liu Wei was so angry that he lost his temper: "Grandma, you don't have a fever early and don't have a fever later, but you are picking on me at this juncture." The military doctor who accompanied the team reminded: "This high fever is not a good sign, and other team members should be more careful. ..."
Liu Wei interrupted the military doctor impatiently: "Infection, can you stop scaring people with those words? It's only been out for a few days, and I can't stand it anymore. If you can't stand it, go back to me. I'll ask the division again!"
Although what Liu Wei said was angry, it also hit the heart of this new team.Compared with the original teams that dared to fight, this new team is nothing to mention.According to Liu Wei's words, this team is a soldier of talents, among whom the gentleman is the one who is difficult to deal with, and among the soldiers it is the talents who are difficult to lead.If you are forced too lightly, it will not work. If you are forced too hard, all kinds of problems will come to you.Regardless of everyone's opposition, Liu Wei insisted on bringing out the second group at this critical moment when water shortages and food shortages were approaching. He wanted to force out the tenderness, tenderness, and even the high-mindedness of this young soldier.What's so great, isn't it that you can play with a few instruments, pretend to be like big intellectuals, and fight devils with real knives and guns, which is far from it!Liu Wei is not saying that he is not used to cultural people, he is not used to cultural people taking themselves too seriously.
He pointed to the scholar Wu Yipeng: "Pick up the instrument and follow me."
Wu Yipeng muttered, "I won't."
"You don't know how to learn, how can people be born with it?" What did the scholar want to say, Liu Wei was already angry, and he shouted at the fat girl Zhang Shuangyang, "Zhang Shuangyang, you and Wu Yipeng, if you can't finish the prescribed points today , don't come back!"
Zhang Shuangyang had long been dissatisfied with Wu Yipeng. Upon hearing the order from the deputy head, he happily picked up the ruler, hummed a folk song from northern Shaanxi, and walked forward.Wu Yipeng dawdled for a while, but obediently picked up the instrument and followed Zhang Shuangyang on the road.When it came to the measuring point, Wu Yipeng really didn't know anything, and he couldn't even operate the tripod.Zhang Shuangyang was so angry that he threw the ruler, ran over and said, "You run the ruler, I'll do it." Wu Yipeng stared at Zhang Shuangyang in disbelief, "You will?"
"Don't worry about it!" Zhang Shuangyang said while opening the tripod and installing the instrument on it. A surprising thing happened. No one knew when Zhang Shuangyang learned to play with the level, but she did.The instrument next to him was not at ease, so he ran over to confirm, but Zhang Shuangyang even read several numbers, all of which were the same as what he read.The young instrument hand stared at the chubby girl with rare approval in his eyes.When Liu Wei saw this scene, his heart jumped with excitement.There is really nothing difficult in things, it depends on whether you use your mind or not.
Bored, dry, thirsty, the sun is like an autumn tiger, too vicious to mention.
As soon as the two groups left, there were few people in the camp, but these people did not dare to be idle for a moment.Luo Zhengxiong led these logistics soldiers to rush to dig the nest.The nests are prepared for the coming black storm. According to Luo Zhengxiong's experience, the nests that are currently inhabited by people may be filled with sand and dust before the wind blows over. He plans to dig two large ones. , can hold thirty or forty people, so that when the black storm comes, the male and female soldiers can gather together, and take advantage of the days when the black wind cannot work, and catch up on the team's study.Of course, digging such a nest is very particular, and it cannot be dug out in two or three strokes. Fortunately, there are two local soldiers in the cooking team, who are good at this.
Everyone thinks that logistics soldiers are good, they are not dangerous, their work is easy, and they can eat and drink well, but this is not the case.There are unwritten rules, or traditions, in any military force, that is, everything is for the frontier. This is true in wartime, and it is even more true now.For example, at this moment, with a total of eight people including the sentinel, Luo Zhengxiong's water consumption is one bowl a day.On average, there are only two mouthfuls per person.Normally, these two sips of water would not be enough to moisten the lips, but this time, this bowl of water has become a clear spring, rippling there, quenching thirst with just a glance.In the cooking class, there is a veteran named Lao Zhuntou, in his forties, who is usually a joker, as long as he catches the opportunity, he can laugh out your tears.In the past two days, the old Zhuntou suddenly lost his voice, no matter how much his comrades teased him, he just didn't say a word.Luo Zhengxiong saw that he was too serious and made the team dead, so he said, "Old Zhuntou, tell me about the incident where you knocked out the tip of the nose of the leader of the rebellion with one shot." Provoking again, he said hoarsely: "Save some saliva, one mouthful of saliva is worth two bowls of water."
Luo Zhengxiong came out of the nest without a word. After digging for the past two days, he would come out uncontrollably and look at the ancient yellow sand road for a while.In the desert in late autumn, there is nothing else to be seen except the wind blowing up in waves and sand waves.Although the grass is still green, the greenness is extremely limited. If you don’t stare at it carefully, the greenness will escape from your eyes, like a sprinting rabbit, and it will disappear after a while.The ancient road is still there, the yellow sand is still there, but the figure he wants to see cannot be seen.What's going on, no matter how late it is, it won't be delayed until now?Luo Zhengxiong was full of uneasiness, and the ominous lurking in his heart came out again, he couldn't wait any longer, if he waited any longer, not only the lives of these dozens of people would be in danger, but the three people sent to fetch water might also be in danger. Really disappear like yellow sand.
Thinking of this, he went back to Diwozi and handed over the work here to the old Zhuntou. He rode his horse and rushed to the wild boar well.
He was already convinced that something had happened to Fifth Master Camel and the others.
In the desert where the yellow sand is rolling, what the horseshoes kick up is not the dust, but the green smoke.More than three hours later, Luo Zhengxiong arrived at the Wild Boar Well. Unexpectedly, the Wild Boar Well was quiet and uninhabited.What about people?Luo Zhengxiong murmured in his heart, and rode his horse to search around. After turning around a lot, he still couldn't find the officers and soldiers of the group.It's really strange, it is clearly said that they are camping here, why can't they find a trace?Luo Zhengxiong became anxious, could it be that the group moved forward again?Thinking of this, he clamped his legs and drove the horse forward.After walking for less than half an hour, he suddenly saw smoke rising in front of him. Luo Zhengxiong rushed over in the direction of the green smoke, and he saw a group of soldiers lying in disorder under a dilapidated wall. Not far away, instruments were piled up. and ruler.
"What's going on?" Luo Zhengxiong asked in surprise.
Changjiang Tao of the first battalion who was lying on the ground in a daze got up suddenly and saluted: "Report to the leader, something happened to the group."
"What's the matter?" Luo Zhengxiong got off his horse, his eyes swept over Jiang Tao's face, because he didn't see political commissar Yu Hai, his heart became more and more nervous.
The other soldiers stood up when they heard the sound, their faces were blue with frustration.
"Head, we..." The first battalion commander hesitated, as if he couldn't say anything.
"Tell me, what's the matter?!"
"Regimental Commander, come with me." Seeing this, the First Battalion Commander changed his expression and led Luo Zhengxiong forward.
This is an abandoned village. From the signs, it must have been a mansion, maybe it was the palace of some prince.Although the stockade was in ruins, the four sites and the traces of houses were very clear. Jiang Tao took Luo Zhengxiong to the backyard of the stockade, a location similar to a wing.There is a pit there, not deep, but it can block the sun, and the inside is surprisingly clean, as if the wind and sand cannot blow in.This is really a miracle, Luo Zhengxiong has never seen such a strange thing.But this time, he didn't care about curiosity at all, because what was before his eyes was something even more shocking than this.
A group of water bladders burst!
It was a wonderful idea to put the water bag in this pit. Not only can the wind and sand not be blown in here, what is even more surprising is that there is a faint cool air in the pit. If the water bag is left overnight, the water will become cold water. It not only quenches thirst, but also moistens the lungs and clears the heart.Who knows——
"What's going on?" With just one glance, Luo Zhengxiong's heart jumped in pain. That's the life of a group of people, unexpectedly——
"We are having a meeting to investigate. Someone deliberately sabotaged it," said Changjiang Tao of the First Battalion.
"Destruction, which bastard did it?" Luo Zhengxiong took out his gun and walked slowly towards the broken wall.Jiang Tao from the first battalion followed closely, and said in a timid voice, "The enemy is too cunning. They attacked after everyone fell asleep at night."
"Sleeping to death? Dozens of people can't stand a water bag, you eat dry food?!" Cursing, Luo Zhengxiong had already arrived under the wall, and there was a shade under the wall, and people took turns to squeeze under the shade.Luo Zhengxiong didn't know that this was the order of Yu Hai, the political commissar. If the person who caused the sabotage could not be found out, no one should leave the wall.
This matter is no small matter, just imagine, if there is no enemy in the group, who can puncture the water bag ruthlessly and let go of the last half bag of life-saving water?
But who is this enemy?
Luo Zhengxiong's eyes swept over the faces of everyone under the wall one by one, everyone looked alike, and no one looked alike.
"Where's the political commissar?"
"I went out to find her early in the morning." Jiang Tao's voice had returned to normal.
"Her?" Luo Zhengxiong realized that there was still one person missing under the wall, and Wan Yue was not there.
"Where did Wan Yue go?" Luo Zhengxiong felt nervous again.
"I don't know," Jiang Tao lowered his eyes and whispered, "After the incident, she disappeared."
"What?!" Luo Zhengxiong's arm holding the gun went limp, feeling like someone had bitten him hard somewhere.
"It can't be her!" At this moment, a female soldier came over from under the wall and shouted hoarsely.At the same time, she solemnly asked Luo Zhengxiong, "Leader, it's definitely not Wan Yue. Now that the whole team suspects her, Wan Yue must feel uncomfortable. Leader, you must find out the real culprit and clear Wan Yue's name." injustice."
The female soldier who spoke seemed to be named Tian Yuzhen, from the Third Battalion of the Second Division, Second Regiment, and Luo Zhengxiong was in a daze for a moment, not sure if her name was that. "What's your name?" Luo Zhengxiong asked.
"Reporting regiment leader, my name is Tian Yuzhen, the platoon leader of the female platoon of the third battalion of the second regiment, I have heard the report of your deeds."
Sure enough, it was her, Luo Zhengxiong continued to ask: "Why do you know it's not Wan Yue?"
"After moving the camp this time, Wan Yue firmly disagreed with the centralized release of water. She suggested twice to the political commissar to give everyone water. The political commissar was afraid that everyone would not be able to resist, so he drank the water in advance, so..."
"Is there such a thing?" Luo Zhengxiong turned his gaze to the first battalion, Changjiang Tao.Jiang Tao blushed and said, "Yes, but that doesn't rule out her setting off smoke bombs."
"Smoke bomb?" For some reason, Luo Zhengxiong suddenly felt a little disgusted with Jiang Tao, very strong, he suppressed it, and didn't let anything show on his face. "Where did Wan Yue go, and how long has he been gone?"
"I didn't see you early yesterday morning. We shouldn't be sitting here for an analysis meeting. We should hurry up and find someone." Tian Yuzhen rushed to say.
"Nonsense!" Luo Zhengxiong dropped a sentence, jumped on his horse angrily, and ran towards the depths of the desert.
The deeper the desert was, the more mysterious it became. Compared with the other side of the camp, the surroundings of the wild boar well seemed more desolate and desolate.The direction Luo Zhengxiong was walking was almost one sand beam next to another. Based on his intuition, he believed that Wan Yue went inside, because he had paid attention all the way when he came, and found no one. Moreover, if Wan Yue was really killed by a group Doubt, with her character, can only go in.Nonsense!Luo Zhengxiong still had these two words in his mind, how could political commissar Yu Hai be so nonsense!After walking not far, the bay red horse exerted all his strength, and the horse's hoof stepped on it, and it was quickly sucked by the sand, and it was very difficult to lift it again.After all, a horse is no match for a camel. Moreover, this horse has not been given water for three days, and its mouth is open all the way, and it will run forward when it sees a star.Luo Zhengxiong jumped off his horse, just in time to see Tian Yuzhen leading a few female soldiers following closely behind.
"Take the horse back and try to find some green grass for it." After Luo Zhengxiong shouted this sentence, he left the horse and walked towards Shaliangzi without hesitation.
Luo Zhengxiong was so tired that he couldn't breathe after turning over three sand beams in succession, but he didn't dare to stop.Wan Yue didn't come back for two days, and the area was so barren, fortunately they could still sit there for a meeting.He touched the kettle on his waist, there was still half a jug of water there, but he was really reluctant to drink it.He shook it, heard the sound of the water, felt less thirsty, stuck out his tongue to lick his lower lip, and walked forward again.At this time, he thought of the time when the Hotan rebellion was quelled. It was also like this with sand dunes next to each other, the endless yellow sand, and the scorching sun.The troops were also in a situation of water shortage, but none of the soldiers complained that they were tired. They would rather save the water for the horses to drink than lick their tongues on the kettle.The team at that time was so hardworking, everyone seemed to have three heads and six arms, and they walked in the desert for three days and three nights, but no one was left behind.Looking at the current team, Luo Zhengxiong couldn't help but sigh. Although this team was formed temporarily and more than half of them had no formal training, after all, this team is younger and should have more vigor.
It seems that the word "liberation" has indeed made many people relax, especially those new to the army, thinking that as long as they serve as soldiers, they will enjoy the fruits of revolution.At a political meeting of the division headquarters half a year ago, Tong Tieshan, the political commissar of the division, raised this issue. Many comrades still held different opinions, saying that now that we are liberated, we should not use the same set of requirements in the war years as a team, and we should put everyone's thinking on peace construction. Only in this way can we show that we are a winning team, a team that can lead to the light.At that time, Luo Zhengxiong didn't express his opinion, because he knew that he was going to change jobs, and what he was thinking about was what to do in the local area.Looking back now, we can see that Commissar Tong's worries were correct. No matter what time it comes, a team must have faith and be prepared for the worst to fight against hardships and hardships.Without this, the team is disorganized and has no future.Luo Zhengxiong decided that when he returned this time, he would concentrate on carrying out a political education, and must arouse everyone's beliefs.
Faith is the sharpest weapon to overcome all difficulties.
In the hot desert, faith is water and an oasis that inspires us to move forward.
oasis.
It was really an unheard of adventure, and even more so, a thrilling fight. If Luo Zhengxiong stayed a few minutes late, or lost himself in the desert for a while, the consequences would be disastrous.
Thinking about it afterwards, Luo Zhengxiong still couldn't help gasping.
Luo Zhengxiong arrived at the accident site in the evening, and he couldn't remember how many sand beams he had turned over and how many sand ravines he had crossed. Anyway, when he stood on the Jiujinger beam, the setting sun had already poured down like residual blood.Luo Zhengxiong saw the green at a glance. Really, standing in that direction, he couldn't see the green, but Luo Zhengxiong clearly saw it.That green color, shining with light and waves, made him on Jiujinger's beam suddenly sweep away his fatigue.It wasn't an illusion, Luo Zhengxiong later thought about everything that happened in the desert that evening, every bit of it was real.He was indeed attracted by the green at that time, and his lead-filled legs suddenly had desire, the desire to rush down.Standing on the sand beam, he seemed to roar into the sand valley, but he didn't seem to, but there was indeed a voice in his heart.It is the call that the eyes that are burned by the desert can't help but see the green, it is the sound that the thirsty heart naturally rises when it smells the breath of water, the waves of joy are rolling!Luo Zhengxiong rushed down the Jiujing'er beam almost at the speed of a wild horse.
What kind of beam is that? In the desert, you can hardly see such a beam, or, it is not called a beam in the first place, and the desert can’t produce that kind of beam. The beam only exists in the deep mountains, only Luo Masao's hometown has it.From Jiujingerliang to Shijingerliang on the opposite side, there seems to be only one step. If Luo Zhengxiong uses a little force, he can almost jump over it, but no one can jump over that step. After many days, Luo Zhengxiong took Wan Yue, measured with a theodolite, the seemingly one-step distance is actually wider than the Yellow River, but standing on the Jiujinger Liang, you still feel that it is only one step when you look at the Shijinger Liang.
That step is the distance of the heart. If you think it is close, it will be close; if you think it is far, it will be far.Wan Yue later explained everything like this.But that evening, that evening when everything was covered by the bloody sunset, Luo Zhengxiong didn't have these thoughts in his heart, he just had one thought, he must find Wan Yue, he must find Wan Yue.He even suspected that the roar that he uttered while standing on the Jiujinger beam could actually have only two words: Wan Yue.
Luo Zhengxiong didn't run down Jiujingerliang, he was sent down by quicksand just like Wan Yue.Many years later, Luo Zhengxiong built a sand skiing field in Jiujingerliang, and specially named it: Wanyue Mengyuan.
The fine sand was like a powerful palm, pushing him to the bottom of the valley without any doubt.
It was a dreamlike feeling, it was a heart-piercing feeling.
Falling into the bottom of the valley, Luo Zhengxiong vomited desperately. Sand washed his entire intestines and stomach, and sand washed his soul thoroughly. When he struggled to support himself, the world was not the same, the sky was gone, The land is gone, and what can be seen is only a narrow and long deep ditch, faint, ethereal, mysterious, densely covered with darkness, and there are invisible dangers.Luo Zhengxiong pulled out the gun subconsciously, and when Jiu Jinger Liang fell headfirst like weightless, his hand was able to cover the gun tightly, which shows what kind of intimate relationship he has with the gun.When he walked in, it was completely subconscious at that time, he had lost his direction, he couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and south at all, he thought he should go in, so he walked in.Later he realized that it was not the inside at all, the valley has no inside and outside, it is like a belt, encircling the Jiujinger Liang, no matter which direction he walks, he can always meet the green, the middle of the green Wan Yue confronted death.
Wan Yue is only half a step away from death, or in other words, one of her legs has stepped into the valley of death, and the other leg is struggling, step by step, approaching death.
It was the wild boar who confronted her.
All of this may be understood as a coincidence. Jiujinger Liang is the mysterious beam, and the valley bottom is even more mysterious. No matter how many generations, how many people, almost no one has sent their footsteps there, and if they are sent, there is only one death, because When you are clear, you dare not send your footsteps to that beam. It is difficult to trek up the sand beam piled up by the hand of God with your feet. Go up, the bottom of the valley is also a cave waiting to bury you.Later, when developing the sand skating field, Luo Zhengxiong, who had taken off his military uniform for many years, picked up a pile of bones with his own hands.
The guide, Uncle Timur, said that only those who have lost their way can stand on Jiujinger Liang.Only those whose souls have been taken away by God can descend to the bottom of the valley safely.It can be seen that Luo Zhengxiong lost his way that evening, Wan Yue also lost his way in the evening two days ago, and that wild boar lost his way even earlier.
It was the wild boar who first discovered the green. The wild boar with one broken leg fled all the way from the direction of the wild boar well. On Jing'er Liang, it was a beautiful picture, extremely spectacular, but unfortunately no one could see it.The tall and majestic wild boar stood under the setting sun with the victor's posture. The sunset in that evening was also extremely gorgeous, even a little delicate, which made the wild boar more powerful.The wild boar looked around proudly, and was about to let out a long cry, when suddenly his feet slipped. The desert destroyed its pride in an incomparably gentle way, and then rolled it into the sand waves in an incomparably gentle way. In the rolling sand waves, the wild boar Hit rock bottom.The wild boar that fell into the valley had the same fear and joy as Wan Yue and Luo Zhengxiong. The fear was that it had come to a completely strange place. Fortunately, it was not swallowed by the sand waves. It was still alive, and it actually stood up again. .For the three creatures who fell to the bottom of the valley, this fall was fatal, but it was also a lifetime of pride, because they discovered green.
In terms of sensitivity to green, the wild boar's sense of smell far exceeds that of humans, so the wild boar hardly hesitated, and quickly rushed into the bushes in search of the long-awaited scent.What a lovely piece of bush it is, it is simply a blessed place given by the gods to the wild boar. The wild boar burrowed its mouth a few times, and then carved a path out of the dense bushes. Along that path, the wild boar went in excitedly. flutter.Wild boars are thirsty. In terms of resistance to thirst, wild boars are not much better than humans. Where humans cannot survive, wild boars cannot survive for too long.Therefore, the wild boar well in the past can only become a ruin.
The wild boar later discovered the water source, not to say how great the wild boar is, because the water source is there, clear and clear, it is like a holy spring in the desert, bubbling and bubbling, each water bubble can give birth to a life, Think about it, how many lives have been bred in this bush over the years.But until now, no life can be as strong as the wild boar, so when the wild boar plunged into the water and drank wildly, all the life in the bush shrank their necks in fright.They couldn't figure out where this behemoth came from, where it was going, and why it invaded their territory?But the wild boar didn't care about these at all. Once it plunged into it, it never wanted to get up again. It wanted to drink enough, drink enough, and swallowed all the gurgling water into its fat stomach.
The wild boar drank for a full hour. What a blissful drinking it was, it was so enjoyable to die.When it raised its head, it realized that the puddle of water was exhausted for it to drink. If it drank up, if it wanted to drink again, it had to squat down and wait.
The boar is determined to wait.
This waiting is a long process.Incredibly long.During this time, the wild boar had seen enough of the bushes. In fact, the bushes were not that big. The wild boar well of life is so small that it is even more pitiful.But the wild boar is very content. It can find such a piece of water and grass in this green desert, and can find this green rippling water source in this deadly dry desert. What is it not satisfied with?It was the third day after the wild boar drank the water for the second time. By this time, he had gotten used to the bush and regarded it as his own kingdom very skillfully.Yes, this wild boar is very old, so old that it can't remember how many years it has lived, anyway, its grandson's grandsons have been dead for many years, but it is still alive, with this green grass kingdom, it can live for such a long time.
What a beautiful thing this is.
But it never expected that a few days later, some creatures that are not afraid of death would come in and try to compete with it for the sovereignty of the kingdom.
This creature is Wan Yue.
When Wan Yue broke into the bushes, the wild boar was sleeping.The wild boar had eaten and drank enough, and the only thing left was to sleep well and heal the wound on his leg as soon as possible.Wan Yue's mood when she discovered the bushes was definitely not comparable to that of a wild boar, nor could Luo Zhengxiong understand it. For Wan Yue, she carried too many missions on this trip into the desert. load.Sometimes she is really at a loss, so lost that she can't find a direction, but sometimes, she feels that everything is very clear, and there is no need to hesitate at all.But there is one thing, she must find the water source, which she promised to the teacher Liu Zhenhai.For this reason, she asked her mother in heaven for help again and again, hoping that her mother could give her a hint so that she could smell the breath of water as soon as possible.
The moment she saw the bushes, Wan Yue almost fainted, she seemed to see her mother waving in front of her and calling out intimately.Oh, mother, Wan Yue cried out happily, and plunged into the bushes.
Wan Yue drank more vigorously than the wild boar, she was really happy, she remembered the scene when she saw her mother for the first time many years ago, and she also had such a hard drink.It's just that it was not in the desert at that time, but in the mother's incense pavilion.
Mother.
Tears of happiness rolled down.
When the tears ebbed, Wan Yue rubbed her eyes, and rubbed again, still feeling strange.She obviously plunged into the bushes by herself, why did she see something in her eyes when she looked up?Wan Yue couldn't figure out what it was at first, but felt that it was very strange, huge, like a cow, no, stronger than a cow, and also full of savagery.What is it?Wan Yue looked at the monster quietly, with such a question in her heart.Wow, Wan Yue understood, wild boar, she met wild boar!
Wan Yue had met a wild boar before, before she joined the People's Liberation Army. At that time, her status was still very special, so special that she could hardly tell others.
She was almost eaten by a wild boar that time, but fortunately someone saved her at a critical moment.
The identity of the person who saved her was even more special, and the person who saved her later became her disaster.
Yes, disaster.Wan Yue is still trapped in a disaster and cannot extricate herself.
The boar watched her silently.
As soon as the wild boar opened his eyes, he saw the beauty.Having dealt with humans a lot, wild boars can not only distinguish between male and female, but also beauty and ugliness. This old wild boar has become a half-elf, and has been able to gain insight into human psychology.It's a pity that it didn't see through it at that time, and it didn't pay attention to it. A beauty suddenly appeared in its eyes, and the wild boar was a little dazed.The wild boar could only look at it quietly for a while.
The wild boar found that this beauty was not only beautiful, but also delicious.How beautiful it would be to share with four hooves and one mouth.The old wild boar swallowed.
Wan Yue didn't dare to move.When she recognized it as a wild boar, the first thing she thought of was immobility.
Someone taught her this survival technique. When you meet a wolf or a wild boar in the wild, you must be calm. If you don’t move it, don’t dare to move it.
The wild boar didn't move either.Wild boars have this instinct even more. When encountering creatures that don't know the details, it's best not to move.
A peculiar confrontation ensues in the bush.This is what happened at the end of the evening. The evening of this day seems to be a bit long. When Wan Yue stood on the Jiujingzi Liang, the setting sun had already poured down. It has been more than two hours, and the faint light and shadow have not yet disappeared. It leaked from the slash like a knife, reflecting the shrubs in a strange way, and reflecting the wild boar more and more with a certain power.Wan Yue was thinking urgently, besides being calm at this time, there must be a way, a way to deal with this monster.Intuitively, Wan Yue concluded that this wild boar would not be too young. This is true of all things, the younger the more lethal, but old is not a good thing, old means deep calculation, means that it has seen more and more.How will it jump on me?Wan Yue predicted that the wild boar would pounce, it would choose the best time, push its hind hooves hard, spread its front hooves, leap into the air, and pounce on her.That vicious mouth is a deadly weapon, and if it cannot be avoided, she will become a delicacy that the monster will greedily and indulge in.It would suck her blood dry, spread her body, and then use its sharp teeth to bite her beautiful limbs into pieces step by step.Wan Yue felt pain, feeling that she had been hit by a wild boar and was devoured by its ferocious teeth.She tried her best to calm down and try not to think in this direction, but no, she couldn't refuse this terrible thought, she even remembered the first time she was swallowed, even though it wasn't a wild boar, even though it was her savior However, the means of devouring and the feeling of pain are surprisingly similar, even the teeth of that person are a bit like those of wild boars, biting her crazily, Wan Yue uttered a huge pain, very real, as if a certain part of the body still contained在那张嘴里，那是一张能言善道的嘴，也是一张极尽巧舌的嘴，可惜，那嘴里没一句实话，没一句能打动女人的话，但偏偏，万月就掉进了那张嘴里。我怎么能掉进那张嘴里呢？万月忽然间恍惚，思想离开了身体，往另一个方向跑，这很危险，如果野猪选择这个时候袭击，万月是躲不过去的。
野猪没。野猪有野猪的思想。野猪并不急于向这个漂亮女人下手，一则它不饿，这个下午野猪吃得很足，灌木林里有太多的食物可供选择，不像干涸绝望的沙漠，有时候好几天都填不饱肚子。这儿的水草鲜美，用舌头就能轻松地享用，这儿有太多奇形怪状的小生命，每一种吃起来都味道精美，野猪不小心，就把自个吃得有点撑了。硕大的肚皮又鼓又胀，拖在水草上，动一下都很难。野猪暗暗后悔，如果早知道会闯进这么一个美人，它应该吃少点。更重要的，野猪怕美人给它设计。计是很可怕的，尤其人类的计，野猪的同类为什么会一个个死掉，就是中了人类的奸计。别的生灵它们不怕，大家都在同一起跑线上，你能搏杀我也能，人类不同，人类有时候太毒辣，不用搏杀，只给你设个计，就把你灭了。这头年老的野猪所以能活到现在，就是比别的同类多个脑子，搏杀之前，它必须弄清，有没有陷阱？
野猪怀疑万月有同类，就隐藏在某个地方，说不定还是个英雄。一等它跃身，那种叫做枪的东西就会发出凶狠的一声响。野猪领教过，不至一次，它的腿所以伤掉，就是被那种叫做枪的东西给击中了。
按野猪的思维，这么漂亮的一个人儿，不可能单独闯进这种地方。人类最大的嗜好就是喜欢围着美人转，这一点它很清醒，它怕英雄，尤其是敢为美人献身的英雄。
万月轰走那个男人，她必须清醒，必须全神贯注，这时候想那个男人显然是不理智的，野猪正虎视耽耽盯着她，她首要的任务就是把这头野猪干掉。
怎么干呢？万月开始想策略，这是策略，如果从容一点，万月会先设下一计，一个圈套，让野猪钻进来，那样就好对付了。可惜野猪不给她机会，她的才能没办法施展。万月先是看清它肥硕的肚子，这好，如果它扑，就冲它肚子下手，这么想着她摸了一下刀。万月有刀，很精致，很锋利，如果比杀伤力，这把刀比军用刺刀还管用。这是万月的秘密，特二团没人知道，也不能让他们知道，因为这把刀不是谁都能拥有的，她相信包括罗正雄，也没有机会看到这么精致而又恶毒的刀。
这把刀来自德国。
万月接着看清了野猪的腿，尽管光线很暗，万月还是一眼断定，这是条伤腿，伤得还不是太轻。这更好，万月心里莫名地轻松了下，野猪的凶狠在于腿，失去一条腿，野猪的杀伤力就减半。如果它扑，身体就会倾斜，那样给她的机会就更多，万月判断着，能不能一刀击中它脖子？或者直接攻击它眼睛？这样太冒险，要是一刀不能夺命，它跟着反扑过来，情况就糟了。
这时候万月又摸了下另一条腿，她的小腿，那儿有条绷带，绷带里还藏着另样东西，也是件秘密武器。万月想它总是派上用场了。刚接到命令，要她到特二团报到时，万月还犹豫过，要不要带上它。现在看来，带得很正确。这么想着，她又感激起那个男人来，是他让她最终下了决心。万月还记得临行前他说的话：“那儿情况复杂，随时都会遇到生命危险，你必须把它带上，这东西比枪更管用。”
万月相信，对付野猪，它的确比枪更管用。
天彻底黑下来，最后一丝亮光消失时，野猪打了个哆嗦。这是野猪最不愿意看到的时候，天一黑，野猪的两只眼便如同掉进黑洞，再也不起作用，狡猾的人类往往选择这个时候，向野猪发起攻击。所以那一刻野猪显得格外紧张，甚至做好了拼死一搏的准备。还好，万月没有动手，野猪有点庆幸，她为什么不动手呢，野猪也有点不明白。
难道她想跟我友好相处？或者她也受了伤，跟我一样不方便动手？野猪乱想着，不大明白这个漂亮女人的用意，它甚至生出一丝儿对这女人的好感。你别怪野猪，其实它跟人差不多，有时候也会怜香惜玉。只可惜无法表达，猪毕竟在这方面比人类逊色。愈发加重的黑夜让它的双眼彻底变瞎，它已看不清女人了，只在脑子里反复闪现她那张娇美而又略带忧伤的脸庞。她也是个不幸的人，说不定也被什么流言中伤着。年老的野猪想起自己，它在很早的时候就被同类中伤，一度时期被同伙驱逐出野猪井，四处流浪，过着漂泊无定的日子，那是一段多么忧伤暗淡的日子啊，年老的野猪流下了不被理解的泪。
黑夜静悄悄的，静得他们互相能听得见彼此的心跳。野猪沉浸在往事里，万月也沉浸在往事里，似乎，眼前的危险被彼此的往事化解着，灌木林的气氛也被感染成另一种色彩，有点暧昧，有点惺惺惜惺惺。万月的手从刀上滑下来，野猪的前爪也从奋起的姿势收拢回去。
这时候奇迹发生了，不是发生在这两个生命身上，而是那眼咕嘟咕嘟响着的水井。那眼水井突然没了响声，彻底地没了。万月正在生疑，以为什么干扰了自己的听觉，忽然就闻见一股奇特的味道，这味道淡淡的，尤如一股远古的香气，从地层深处悠悠荡来，令人嗅一口便能沉醉。野猪也嗅到了这股气味，它感觉这味儿更像是从女人身上发出，带着一股亘古不变的母体的芳泽。野猪前几天也被这种气味诱惑过，它迷醉了过去，但今天这感觉更浓，更鲜，野猪忍不住就多吸几口，它打了个哈欠，它听见女人也打了个哈欠。
万月果真打了个哈欠。然后，她就迷迷的，晕晕的，坚持了没多久，身子一软，倒在了灌木林里。
一丝月光洒下来，罩住了灌木林，透过朦朦的光儿，你可以清楚地看见，灌木林里这两个生灵，一个比一个姿势更憨地，睡在了月光下。
月光柔美。
这时候，离九景儿梁很远的地方，那座古寨里，政委于海正在组织一组成员，召开一场别开生面的检举会。水囊被扎，一组人最后救命的水泄漏一空，这在兵团历史上，也是少有的事。于海不能不急。可光急不顶用，他调查了一天，除了一营长江涛汇报说，半夜时分他曾看到仪器手万月往那个方向去，别的同志都提供不出有价值的线索。他正欲怀疑万月，记录员田玉珍马上说：“万月每天晚上都起夜，她有失眠症，再说，她去水囊那边，就是怕有人搞破坏。”
他到底该信谁，或者谁也不信？但，水囊被扎，明显是有人搞破坏，而且这人就在一组当中。who is it?既然能扎破水囊，他就有可能做出更可怕的事，如果……于海不敢想下去。现在万月失踪，就因为他多问了一句，她便一怒而去。她是赌气而去，还是？情况不容他多思考，他必须趁势发动大家，将这个暗藏的敌人挖出来。
情况远没于海想的那么简单，检举会开得一团糟，到后来，几乎成了吵架会。
于海忧心忡忡。
罗正雄后来想，如果他不到九景儿梁，如果他不被沙浪摧下去，情况可能会是另番样子。
据后来万月回想，那天早上，她比野猪醒来的晚，晚了足足有一个钟头。这是没办法的事，万月后来才弄清，神秘的九龙泉会在夜间散发出一股气体，这股气体有催眠的成份，人或动物嗅了，会不自禁地进入睡眠状态。等太阳升起，第一缕阳光投向九龙泉时，那股气味便倏地消失。沙漠中这样的神秘景观很多，只不过凭特二团的力量，还不能将它们一一解开。
野猪的适应力远远超过人类，那股气味刚一消失，野猪便睁开了眼睛。野猪先是摇了摇头，清醒了下自己，就在它想起身寻找食物时，脑子里哗地跳出一个美人，天呀，差点把她给忘了。野猪马上绷紧神经，恢复了警戒状态。经过一夜的休息，野猪的状态好极了，肠胃也消化到最好处，肚皮不那么拖了，饿的感觉涌上来，这是一种很美的感觉，它可以激发野猪的斗志，惟一的恨憾还是那条腿，那条伤腿似乎越发沉重，野猪努力着动了动，它比以前越发的不听使唤。野猪悲哀地叹口气，这条伤腿很有可能把它毁掉。
野猪看了眼万月，她还睡着，她睡得真香啊，野猪发出一声叹。其实野猪是喜欢看人类睡觉的样子的，人类只有睡着的时候，才跟别的动物显得没有两样，失去了攻击心和算计的人类原本也很可爱，甚至能称得上亲切。比如眼前这位美人，她的样子就很亲切，野猪真想走过去，亲她一口。这个怪怪的想法一出，野猪脑子里立马跳出一个影子，那是一头漂亮的母野猪，真是漂亮啊，野猪只要一闭上眼，脑子里就全是它的影子。可惜它在一个风和日丽的日子离它而去了，再也不可能回来，自此它的日子便坠入无边无际的寂寞。野猪掉下一串子眼泪，每每思念老婆的时候，它的双眼便会被泪水模糊。这个太阳温情空气里涌动着复杂味儿的早晨，野猪用另一种方式寄托了它对老婆的思念，它终于发现，自己竟是一头很多情的猪。
这个早晨，抢先醒来的野猪是有很多机会的，如果它贪婪一点，如果它凶残一点，万月就会在睡梦中毫不知觉地死掉。这不是什么吹牛的话，它甚至可以不费多大力气，只需慢悠悠走过去，边欣赏边工作。是的，对野猪而言，觅食就是工作，野猪没有什么野心征服沙漠，那是人类的事，它只想让自己活得更久长一点。如果吃下这位美丽的人儿，它相信可以多活上十几年。可惜它没。不是它缺乏信心，是它觉得自己不应该侵犯一个睡着的人，她是多么的需要保护啊，野猪发出这样的伤感。我应该让她睡得更久一点，野猪想。如果她能跟我友好相处，我愿意跟她成为朋友，野猪又想。后来野猪后悔了，它多么愚蠢啊，怎么可以同情人类呢，怎么可以对人类发出这样的感情呢？傻，真傻。世上万物，还有比人类更残酷更不讲和平共处的么？没，真没。
当然后悔是罗正雄出现以后的事，那时候野猪远没这种想法，它只是带着欣赏的，关爱的，甚至温情脉脉的目光望住万月。它把她想像成自己的孩子，野猪有很多孩子，都很漂亮，可惜它们一个个抛下它远去了，它们全都死掉了，死的方式千奇百怪，可大都跟人类有关。孤独的野猪现在没有灵魂，一个什么也不拥有的野猪哪有灵魂？野猪很想有一个孩子，天天跟着它，守着它，那样，它的晚年将会很幸福。
野猪正想得痴迷，万月醒了。美人睁眼真是好看，这是那个早晨野猪发出的最有诗意的一声叹，可惜很快让万月给毁了。万月睁眼的第一个表情，便是警惕地瞪住野猪，而且手迅速伸向藏刀的地方。这个动作令野猪伤心，它觉得万月很不够意思，我这么长时间没伤害你，难道？不过野猪原谅了万月，有什么不能原谅的呢，活了这么大岁数，野猪真是能原谅一切。它冲万月友好地笑笑，尽管它的笑奇丑无比，但它相信万月能感觉得到。果然，万月的手渐渐放松，从刀上挪开，眼里，也多了一层感激。
他们就那样相视着，近距离的，保持着友好而轻松的状态。那一天过得有些漫长，他们各自想起了很多事情，关于生，关于死，甚至还有爱情。直到日头落下，夕阳再一次洒满灌木林，他们之间都没发生冲突。这就证明，后来的一切都是罗正雄引起的，是他的突然出现，打破了这份和谐，也破坏了这份美。
罗正雄坠入谷底的那一声响，真可谓惊天动地，巨大的沙浪倾天而下，携卷着轰轰声，一下就把灌木林的平衡给打破了。沉醉在美好中的野猪猛地竖起耳朵，不用细听，它便知道，来人了！天呀，来人了！野猪旋即瞪住万月，这时候它才发现，一切都是伪装的，这是人类总也改不掉的恶习，太可怕了。如此美丽动人的女子，竟也用伪装欺骗它，博得它的好感，甚至同情，甚至爱，原来她这样做，就是为了等同伴的到来，就是为了麻醉住它，好让同伴出其不意地收拾它。
野猪怒了。因为它清楚地闻见一股男人的味道，那男人带着杀气，带着凶气，带着要致它于死地的恶气，这是野猪不能容忍的。它跃起来，毫不犹豫地，伸出两只锋利的前爪，它要让这个恶毒的女人去死。滚她的吧，什么美人，完全是一只毒蝎子，一只披着人皮的狼，一条狠毒的蛇。总之，野猪怀着被欺骗被玩弄的复仇心理，扑向万月。万月惊了，她真是没想到事情会变成这样，因此躲闪得有点慢，甚至有几分迟疑，她的肩被野猪猛力一抓，一股钻心的痛生出，她咧了下嘴，就看见血喷出来，鲜红的血。
第一扑没能击中要害，野猪有点羞恼成怒，它是不容许自己失误的，失误就等同于把机会留给对方，它必须抢在对方同伴赶来前，要掉她的命。它调整了下姿势，更猛地反扑过来。这一次它的伤腿害了它，由于转身太疾，那条伤腿还未完全转过向，它便已跃起了，这样它的身子就没有效地控制成一个整体，前后出现了脱节，这是凌空搏杀中最最致命的，果然，还未等它张开血盆大口，万月的攻击便到了。野猪长嘶一声，知道这下完了，它甚至摔不到地上，就会喷血而亡。
但是奇迹出现了！万月虽已出手，却在关键时刻收回了刀。刀在它肚皮上轻轻一挨，像是轻抚了一下，又像是示意它别慌，准备好了再来。野猪落下地，吃惊地转过目光，这一刻它有些感动，更有些悲哀，怎么能让一个女人对它手下留情呢？看来，她并不是想像得那么恶。野猪有点动摇，甚至想放弃这次搏杀，重新回到友好的气氛中去。说到底，万物都还是喜欢友好的呀，毕竟搏杀是件残酷的事，也毕竟搏杀会付出惨重的代价。
但是，那个步子越来越近，罗正雄的步子，尽管野猪还不能断定来者是谁，但他身上的凶气已滚滚而至，这是一个不可轻视的家伙，如果跟他交手，那将极为惨烈。野猪不敢乱抱幻想，它必须孤注一掷。这么想着，野猪再一次腾起。这一次，野猪使出了看家本领，它将伤腿索性提起，不让它着地，用三条腿腾空，效果竟比四条腿要好。腾起的一瞬，它的嘴巴同时张开，露出锋利无比的牙齿。野猪尽管很老了，但牙齿出奇的好，这也是它能在沙漠中活这么长时间的原由。它扑得既猛且准，而且不容万月躲闪，万月还在愣怔中，攻击便到。
万月暗叫一声不好，她没想到野猪会把伤腿收起来，三条腿的野猪居然会扑出一个非常漂亮非常具有杀伤力的动作，她有些惊，欣赏的目光刚刚投过去，脸上便被猛地一击，万月没敢顾上护脸，这时候她握刀的手只要稍稍一偏移方向，就正好中了野猪的计，野猪的牙齿会毫不犹豫地咬住她的脖子，那样，纵是她使出浑身解数，也将毫无意义。
万月往后一斜，身子跟野猪错开不到一巴掌的距离，这一巴掌很关键，野猪毕竟比人要笨，错了这一巴掌，它的牙齿便只能咬住万月的肩，而不是咽喉。而它的喉部和腹部则正好成了万月攻击的两个目标，如果万月有两把刀，就能在瞬间扎入这两个要命的地方。
野猪放弃了咬，纵身一跃，从万月身上腾空过去，落在了万月身后。不过它的屁股上还是挨了一刀。万月怎么能选择它的屁股呢，她是完全有机会扎中它腹部的。野猪边疑惑边转身，等它在相反的方向跟万月对视时，就发现，这女人其实是不想夺它命的！因为对搏了几次，女人都只用一只手，另只手虽是准备着，却一直没把武器亮出来。野猪相信，女人是有更猛的武器的，枪，还是？
她为什么不要我的命？野猪很茫然，不知道该不该继续搏下去，如果谷里只有万月一人，相信野猪会放弃，但，罗正雄来了。野猪一眼就望见了枪，乌黑的枪，凶残的枪，人类目前最残忍的杀生工具。野猪无法犹豫了，抢在罗正雄闯入灌木林前，再一次跃起，这是野猪最后一搏了，不管结局如何，这都是它一生最后一次表演。
这一次表演真是空前绝后，野猪仿佛不再是野猪，成了万兽之王，那一跃也不像是跃，像什么呢，万月形容不出，罗正雄也形容不出，因为野猪腾起时，整个世界像是被它带了起来，风，沙，天空，灌木林，世界改变了方向，世界也打破了秩序，后来很长的日子里，罗正雄都震撼在那一跃里醒不过来，真是惊天动地啊。
气吞万里如虎！
罗正雄终于想到一句能形容野猪的话。
万月呢，自那一跃后，她再也不相信人是最伟大的这句鬼话。骗谁啊，比起野猪那优美而凶悍的一跃，人类真是太笨拙太渺小，如果不是凭借枪啊刀啊这些硬邦邦的工具，单凭身体的力量，人类怕是……
总之，那一跃以绝版的方式，永远定格在了万月和罗正雄脑子里。
罗正雄甚至搞不清，枪是怎样弄响的，子弹又是怎样穿透野猪脑袋以非常坚硬的方式结束这场博弈的，野猪倒地很久，血染红整个灌木林时，罗正雄眼前，还盛开着野猪无与伦比的绝杀姿势。
那是怎样的一跃啊……
临时宿营地陷入一片死默。古寨子发出一股死沉沉的味道。
万月躺在地上，浑身已被血浸透，弄不清她身上哪是野猪的血，哪是她自己的，反正，所有人的眼睛都染满了血。
罗正雄久长的无话。
他说不出，真是说不出。
两壶水放在面前，血红的水。
没有谁敢上去喝一口，两天没喝一口水的战士们谁也不觉得渴。
政委于海终于耐不住，道：“我去过九景儿梁，那么奇特的沙梁，她是怎么上去的呢？”
罗正雄没有回答。
一营长江涛也按耐不住，道：“她是不是迷了路，掉进死亡之谷的？”
罗正雄轻轻扫了一眼江涛，还是没回答。
田玉珍抱着万月，用眼泪为她清洗着脸上的血。
第三天后，罗正雄带着一组全体成员，还有一水囊九龙泉的水，回到了营地。无论如何，他要把扎破水囊的人查出来。
会议开了两天，除过于海已经在古寨子查出的那点儿线索，罗正雄一无所获。夜风再一次席卷营地时，罗正雄走出地窝子，望着挂满星星的苍穹，他忽然问自己，我是不是被什么假象迷惑了？
政委于海跟出来，默立在他身后，半天，自言自语道：“会不会有人一直跟着我们？”
“你说什么？”罗正雄被于海的话吓了一跳。
于海赶忙说：“你别紧张，我也是瞎猜。”
恰在这当儿，营地里突然闯进一峰驼，还未等哨兵发出声音，驼上重重栽下一个人。罗正雄跟于海几乎同时扑过去，他们看清了来人：驼五爷。
“团长，出事了……”驼五爷从地上艰难地撑起身子，用最后一丝力气说。
...
事情到底怪不怪驼五爷，没有人说得清，但有一点可以肯定，只派两个年轻的士兵去取水，这是决策上的错误。
为此，罗正雄和于海应该承担全部责任。
驼五爷他们并没到二师八团去取水，按当初于海的指示，他们应该到八团。八团是于海曾经呆过的地方，也是离营地最近的一个团。于海还给八团团长带了封信，让他在回来的路上护送一程。如果真是去了八团，一切有可能幸免。按于海跟八团的感情，八团就是全程护送也有可能。毕竟，特二团要做的事，关系到整个兵团的未来，在全兵团一盘棋的战略思想下，八团这样做，也是以实际行动支持特二团。于海当初所以轻率地决定只派两个战士跟着驼五爷，不能不说有这方面的依赖思想，事后的总结会上，他把自己狠批了一通，认为这是投机主义思想在作怪。
这又能顶什么用呢？失去的生命再也不可能复活，那可是两条年轻的生命啊，其中年小的那位，刚刚满十七岁。更为凑巧的是，出事那天，正好是他十七岁生日。
悲哀笼罩了大漠。
驼五爷他们取水的地方，叫七垛儿梁。跟八团有将近四十公里的距离，按来回算，可以节省两
