Chapter 2 First Carcass Eagle

The eagle was circling, circling under the bright blue sky, waiting to eat his corpse. He is not dead yet. He also wants to eat this eagle. They were all equally hungry, terribly hungry. When existence is threatened, when the threat has reached a certain limit, there is no difference between a man and an eagle, both of whom injure others in order to preserve themselves. He really wanted to jump up to catch the eagle, and he really wanted to find a rock to shoot the eagle down. Normally, this would be an easy task, but now he was exhausted, and it was difficult for him to lift his hands.

He is dying. If friends in the world know that he is dying, many people will feel very surprised, sad, and regretful, and many people will feel very happy. His surname is Fang, and his name is Fang Wei. Everyone usually calls him "Xiao Fang", damn Xiao Fang. Sometimes even he himself thinks that he is really a terrible person, strange as hell. He has been struggling to walk on this arid land without water and life for more than ten days, and his food and water have been lost in the storm. Now there is only a three-foot-seven-inch sword and a three-inch-seven-inch wound left on his body, and the only one who is with him is "Red Dog".

"Red Dog" is a horse, which was given to him by Ma Xiaofeng. Ma Xiaofeng is the owner of the Guandong Sunset Racecourse. He is far more knowledgeable about horses than the prodigal son is about women. Even the most naughty wild horse will be trained into a good horse in his hands. He gave his friends good horses, but now even this one-in-a-million horse is about to go down. Xiao Fang patted it on the back lightly, and there seemed to be a smile on the corner of its chapped mouth. "You can't die, and neither can I. We haven't even got a wife yet, how can we die?"

The scorching sun is like flames, the earth is like a furnace, and all life has been scorched.Within a few hundred miles, there was no trace of anyone. But he suddenly found someone following him. He didn't see this person, nor heard his footsteps, but he could feel a strange and sensitive feeling like a beast. Sometimes he could almost feel that the person was very close to him, and he would stop and wait. He didn't know how much he longed to see another person, but unfortunately he couldn't wait. As soon as he stopped, this person stopped immediately. He is a man of the rivers and lakes, he has friends and enemies, and there must be many people who hope to cut off his head.

Who is this guy?Why follow him?Do you want to cut off his head when he is powerless to resist?Why not make a move now?Are you still wary of the sword at his waist? After struggling for a while, he finally found a sand dune that could shade him from the sun. He lay down in the shadow behind the dune, and the hawk flew lower, as if it had taken him dead. He still doesn't want to die, he still wants to fight and fight with this eagle, but unfortunately his eyes are gradually unable to open, and even the things in front of him have become hazy. Just then, he saw a person. It is said that mirages often appear in the desert, and when a person is about to die, he often has hallucinations.

This is not his hallucination, he really saw a person. A very thin man was wearing a very large white robe, a white cloth wrapped around his head, and a large hat. Under the shadow of the brim of the hat, a sharp face and a broad mouth, and a pair of vulture-like eyes. It was a joyous and uplifting thing to see a life of one's kind in this unforgiving desert. Xiao Fang sat up immediately, and smiled again at the corner of his chapped mouth, but this man sighed a long time, looking very disappointed. Xiao Fang couldn't help but ask, "What's sad in your heart?" "No."

"Why are you sighing?" "Because I didn't expect you to be able to laugh." Few people would sigh for such a reason, and Xiao Fang couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with laughing?" "There is only one bad thing." The man said, "Those who can still laugh will not die too quickly." Xiao Fang said: "You want me to die soon?" The man said: "The sooner the better." Xiao Fang said: "Now you should see that I don't even have any strength, why don't you simply kill me!" The man said: "I have no grievances with you, why should I kill you?"

Xiao Fang said: "You have no grievances or enmities with me, why do you want me to die soon?" The man said: "Because you seem to be going to die sooner or later. Not only do I want you to die soon, this eagle must also want you to die soon." Eagles still hovered above their heads. Xiao Fang said: "Could it be that you are also like this eagle, waiting to eat my corpse." The man said: "Since you are dead, your body will rot sooner or later. This eagle came to eat your body, and it will not even do you any harm." Xiao Fang said, "What about you?"

The man said: "I don't want to eat you, I just want this sword on your body." Xiao Fang said: "Anyway, I can't take this sword away after I die. If I take it away with you, it won't do me any harm." The man sighed, and said: "Few people can understand this truth, but you actually figured it out." Xiao Fang smiled and said, "There are many reasons that others cannot figure out, but I can figure it out, so I have always lived happily." He suddenly untied the sword at his waist and threw it to this person forcefully. The man was surprised: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Fang said: "I will give you this sword." The man said: "You haven't died yet, why did you give it to me first?" Xiao Fang said: "Because I am happy when I am alive, and I want others to be happy too." He smiled as if he was very happy: "I'm going to die anyway, this sword will always be yours sooner or later, why didn't I give it to you earlier, so that you can be more happy." The man stared at him with a pair of vulture-like eyes, sighed again, and said, "You are so strange, you are so strange." Xiao Fang smiled and said, "You are right."

The man said: "But if you want to use this method to impress me and let me save you, you are wrong. I have never been impressed in my life." Xiao Fang said: "I can see it." The man stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said: "Goodbye." The meaning of "goodbye" is usually not really wanting to see you again, but never seeing you again. He doesn't walk very fast, and he never wastes his energy when he doesn't have to. The sword remained on the ground. Xiao Fang said: "Why don't you take this sword away?" The man said: "If you die, I will definitely take this sword away." Xiao Fang said: "I gave it to you, but you don't want it?" The man said: "I have never asked for something from a living person in my life! Now you are still alive." Xiao Fang said: "You don't want anything from living people?" The man said: "Never." Xiao Fang said: "But there are some things that dead people will never have, for example, friendship." The man looked at him coldly, as if he had never heard of the word "friendship". Xiao Fang said, "You never had any friends?" The man's answer was short and crisp: "No." He started to walk again, took only one step, and stopped, because he heard the sound of horses' hoofs in the distance, which sounded like the thunder of war drums, very murderous. Then he saw dust rising up behind the sand dunes, obviously more than one horse and one person came. A strange expression immediately appeared on his sharp and indifferent face, and suddenly he also lay down, lying in the shadow of the sand dune, watching the circling and low-flying corpse hawk. The sound of hooves was getting closer, but the people and horses were still far away. Suddenly, a sharp wind roared through the air. The eagle also has a strange instinct, as if it has sensed an ominous omen, and is ready to soar into the sky. It's a pity that it was still a step slow, as the gust of wind swept across the air, its body suddenly shook in the air, and then fell obliquely. Come down with an arrow.A three-foot-long arrow with carved feathers went in from under its left wing and came out from its right back. Once it fell down, it could no longer move. The men and horses were still thirty feet away, and an arrow shot could shoot a vulture right through. Xiao Fang sighed: "No matter who this person is, I hope it's not me that he came looking for."
