"Is that a cow?" Yizhen pressed the shutter and asked Nan Jingfeng. Ling Xiao: "I thought it was a sheep." ”

"That's a wildebeest. Zhong Ke hesitated: "Strictly speaking, they are indeed antelopes. ”

"They're ugly. Nan Jing looked at the wind and was a little disgusted: "The head of the cow, the body of the horse, the hooves of the sheep, the tail of the donkey." ”

The crisp, yellowish grass with a pale background and narrow clouds like watercolor floats in slow motion. People seem to be floating on tectonic plates looking at the universe. I can't jump out of this huge vast gray.

The car continued to drive forward. Nan Jingfeng patted Yizhen on the shoulder: "Do you want to go see the elephant herd?"

"I want to see baby elephants. ”

"I'm afraid it won't work. Nan Jingfeng pointed to the few in front of him: "The average age of African elephants can reach about 70 years old. Reproduction is very slow, and the gestation period is twenty-two months. ”

"So long?" was also dumbfounded.

"Yes, the baby elephant is brought to two years old, and the female elephant has only started her second birth. Baby elephants are very precious and hide behind the herd. Nan Jingfeng pointed.

"In the past, watching people slaughter elephants for ivory was uncomfortable and distressing. Yizhen continued to look forward, and a gust of wind and sand fluttered, choking her back and coughing. Nan Jingfeng hurriedly closed the window, "The weather doesn't seem to be good today. ”

Driving through the endless green and yellow meadows, the pale blue lake suddenly jumped out. The wings of the birds fluttered on the surface of the water, almost like they had come out of a picture scroll. In the background is a meadow with emerald green trees, and a low and collapsed long wooden house, beautiful and straightforward9.

"I may have seen a fake Africa before. Yizhen pointed to the long legs of the thin red bamboo sticks and asked, "What kind of bird is that?"

"That's a flamingo. They prefer saline lakes. Nan Jingfeng introduced. I really feel that the flamingo is a little dazzling in white and red. She was afraid of birds and found it scary. I think the flamingo is both beautiful and noble.

"I still think it's cute. Yizhen stretched out his finger and pointed, a bird walking by the lake, the lower half of the body was snow-white, the top of the head was a little gray, and the back was like splashing ink. With round black eyes and long legs with stocking-colored thin bamboo sticks, he walks leisurely by the lake, and his body is more slender than that of flamingos. The long black pointed beak resembles a black straw, and the expression is soothing, but it is serious.

"That's the black-winged stilt, the foil to the flamingo. "Nanjing Wind Channel.

"I think it's more beautiful, like it flew out of a landscape painting. ”

The grass in this area is turning yellow again. Yizhen found a dog hiding in the grass and yawned profusely.

"That's a spotted hyena. Nan Jingfeng imitated their giggling and eerie laughter: "In Aboriginal culture, they don't have a good reputation. Often associated with cowardly thieves. ”

At dusk, the grassland becomes soft, and the old time in the filter is general, and the time of a zhenzhen is stretched. It seems to stretch into the depths of the horizon, or the end of the setting sun. The ballads of the old days have been sung endlessly. When she woke up, she might have grown old, wearing a golden cloak, grunting in her mouth, and then she fell asleep again in a blink of an eye.

An elephant on his way home encounters two baby gazelles. A wildebeest is lined with a wooden pestle in the sunlight like gold threads. The baboon slid and jumped and disappeared.

The bus accompanied the herd of elephants home. Sand and dust fluttered around the bus, and the carriage "bumped" and swayed in the rugged road, walking very slowly. Yizhen leaned on the glass and involuntarily waved goodbye to the baby elephant behind him.

"There is a huge threat to the survival of African elephants. Male elephants have even evolved without tusks. Over the past 100 years, the number of African elephants has dropped from one million to 470,000. ”

Ling said lightly: "If there are no animals in nature, no matter how ingenious the scenery is, what is the meaning to us? Only humans themselves go to the sunset, there are no elephants, no zebras, not even the wailing of birds. The curtain call of the stage is the extinction of humanity itself. ”

It's really inexplicably moist eyes. The golden red sun hid halfway up the mountainside, and the fan-shaped light converged again and again, and the distance from the clouds seemed to be close to the surface of the water. The fan-shaped perimeter continues to be dark like a deep sea. Yizhen always remembered the sunset twilight in the carriage, almost tragic, violently shaking in the chest, shocking, until it was darkened.

Because of his work, Zhong Ke is expected to go to Sudan. Yizhen also wanted to go to Manyara Lake Park with Ling, but Ling insisted on going with Zhong Kezhi, and his voice was a little dead.

Looking at Nan Jingfeng, it is really a bit taboo. As soon as Ling and Zhong Ke left, the two of them seemed nondescript, so they suggested: "Why don't we go together?"

Nan Jingfeng was slightly stunned: "Aren't you here to travel? What are you doing to suffer from that crime? Repair electricity and water, none of them you can help." ”

"Why can't I help?" Yizhen said, "I can clean and clean, and I can help take care of the children." I can also help wash the curtains or something. ”

Nan Jingfeng was stunned: "I'm going to Africa with you to work for free." ”

"No, it's not. Yizhen waved his hand: "I'm so miserable now, it is estimated that I have been retributed for my sins, and I have to atone for my sins." ”

Nan Jingfeng stopped smiling, half worried: "But Sudan is the most unsafe country in the world, with a backward economy, and wars and riots, if you have a bad deal, how can I explain to Liang Xi?"

"If he should be struck by lightning, do you care about him inside and outside the house?" Yizhen was resolute and had already begun to pack up his things.

"All right, I'll go with you. Nan Jingfeng had to change her plan temporarily, and knocked on her head: "Hurry back to Jiangyu after playing for a month, don't go like a shuttle and delay my business." ”

"Got it, got it. It's really helpless, she didn't force him to stay, and it was as if she was bitten back.

"I'm going to take you somewhere until we go. Nan Jingfeng smiled as if confidential.

Following.

The four of them drove the bus to the Maasai village. It's loess all the way. When approaching the village, Yizhen saw several chocolate-colored shadows standing at the entrance of the village through the car window, with bright red dresses and trousers, as if wearing robes. At first glance it is still not used to it. Men and women held wooden spears in their hands, and there was immediately a primitive atmosphere.

This bright red and lively is the shadow of the folk. However, the wild, primitive pattern of flower cloth worn by Africans actually came from a textile mill in Manchester, England - for the old African market.

The car stopped. Yizhen is also curious. The first thing I noticed was two black men wearing robes and large silver necklaces. I thought it was a man, but when I got closer, I realized that it was a woman. Ignoring the figure, it can also be seen that Xu has a relatively high status, a solemn and arrogant look, or is it a woman's usual looking posture?
