Chapter 159: Faint Light
Finally climbed to the top of the mountain, the wind on the top of the mountain was very strong, Ma Dongbao found a big rock to hide in the leeward place, and began to dial the phone number that he had silently read countless times in his heart in the past few days.
The first sound of the phone dial tone rang, and a trembling voice came from the other side: "Bao, is it you?"
"Mom, it's me. Two lines of tears instantly crawled all over his face.
"Where are you now?" the voice was quick and enthusiastic.
I didn't know where I was. When the words came to his mouth, Ma Dongbao finally didn't say it. If I said that, my mother would be worried about dying.
"Mom, I'm already in the army, don't worry. Ma Dongbao said as calmly as possible.
"Oh, are you okay there? You left suddenly, but I'm worried about death, you don......'t know" Tang Liyun first confirmed that her son was still alive and well, and the heart that had always been hanging gradually calmed down, and the thoughts came out like a tide, and the words were endless.
"Let me have a word with my son. Ma Mingyuan couldn't wait for Tang Liyun to finish speaking, he couldn't wait to grab the phone, and shouted: "Son, I can look forward to your call." Don't you know how worried your mother and I are about you after you left that day? It's been seven days, and your mother doesn't do anything, she doesn't sleep, she just hugs her phone for fear of missing your call. I can't persuade you to do anything. ”
Ma Dongbao listened quietly to the phone and couldn't say a word, which is why he always wanted to call home. If my phone call is delayed, my mother doesn't want to kill herself, and she can also boil down her body alive.
Although he had already burst into tears, Ma Dongbao's tears poured out again like a second tide.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I'm fine here, you don't have to worry. Ma Dongbao couldn't say anything more at this time, just trying to let his parents not worry about themselves.
On the other end of the phone, Tang Liyun and Ma Mingyuan kept taking turns grabbing their mobile phones, and they seemed to have endless words.
But Ma Dongbao knew very well at this time that Wan Shi'an just said that the call time was only 3 minutes, and if he let his mother and father keep talking and suddenly interrupted, they would not know what was going on, and they would be even more worried about themselves.
And I really can't guarantee when the next call with my home will be.
So Ma Dongbao forcibly interrupted his mother's words, "Mom, I can't talk to you anymore, each of us only has three minutes of talk time, and there are still many comrades-in-arms waiting to call, so I won't talk to you more." ”
"Oh!" after a clear cry of regret, "then you must pay more attention to yourself......"
Without waiting for Tang Liyun to finish speaking, Ma Dongbao forcibly hung up the phone.
Ma Dongbao's mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and during the period of time he left home, he was thinking about his mother and father all the time, and his mother and father would only miss and worry more about themselves than themselves, maybe ten times, maybe a hundred times.
Hot tears have been soaking on my face for a long time, and I don't feel cold at first. But not long after, the cold on the top of the mountain in the middle of the night made Ma Dongbao feel very uncomfortable.
He looked down in the direction of the camp, and it was also pitch black, except for the faint glimmer of light coming from the sentry post.
Ma Dongbao tightened his collar and prepared to go down the mountain to return to the dormitory, it was too cold here.
Just as Ma Dongbao was about to lift his legs down the mountain, he suddenly noticed a faint red light flickering behind a large rock not far away.
Ma Dongbao's heart was shocked, how could there be a red light on the top of the mountain in the middle of the night?
Ma Dongbao's hand unconsciously grasped the position of the knife handle on his waist, and he had to admit that Wan Shi'an's consideration was still very thoughtful.
But Ma Dongbao stood still and did not move, he was hesitating. Pretend not to see it, quietly go down the hill and go back to the dormitory to sleep, or walk up to see what is going on?
The thought of quietly descending the mountain was denied in a flash, isn't it strange that there is a red light here at this time?
Could it be that there were uniformed personnel who followed him up the hill to monitor him? If so, why didn't he stop him and let himself go back safely after the call? This doesn't seem to make sense.
But the recruits who came this time all lived in a chase shop with him, and it seemed that only the satellite phone assembled by Wan Shi'an himself could communicate with the outside world. Therefore, Wan Shi'an can only talk for three minutes and charge 100 yuan. This doesn't make sense.
Ma Dongbao decided to quietly touch it to see what was going on.
Ma Dongbao bent his waist, raised his legs lightly, and held the handle of the knife behind him tightly with his right hand.
When he got closer, Ma Dongbao became even stranger. Because the wind was very strong on the mountain, I was standing behind the leeward stone to make a phone call just now to avoid the wind.
But the glimmer ahead is clearly on the windward side of the stone. Why is that? Is it to prevent the people at the sentry in the camp on the leeward side from discovering it?
Thinking of this, Ma Dongbao's heart became even more nervous.
Ma Dongbao leaned closer, looked closely, and found that a dark shadow and darkness in the glimmer were almost perfectly blended.
At the same time, Ma Dongbao found that a black shadow also appeared on the big screen in his mind.
Could it be that there is really a person here? This thought first appeared in Ma Dongbao's mind.
Ma Dongbao quietly walked around from behind.
There was indeed a dark shadow, because this black shadow swayed slightly, as if it was preparing something.
Ma Dongbao's heart rose to his throat, and he decided to walk over to see what this black shadow was doing.
The foot stepped on the air and almost fell.
However, this sound had already alarmed the black shadow in front of him, and as soon as the black shadow turned his head, his body immediately glowed with blue light, as if there was an electric current all over his body.
At this time, Ma Dongbao was nervous to the limit, a slight change could make him frightened, subconsciously pulled out the knife behind him, pointed to the black shadow that turned around, and shouted in horror: "Who are you?"
The black shadow didn't say anything, and a knife had already stabbed straight at Ma Dongbao.
Ma Dongbao was startled, and used his knife to block the oncoming fast knife first, and then stabbed hard at the black shadow that was rushing towards him.
The moment the stab was made, Ma Dongbao felt as if there was a sound of a machine starting in his body.
The stabbing knife immediately sped up tenfold. The moment he pierced into the black shadow, Ma Dongbao twisted it hard.
The shadow staggered and fell, the knife that had stabbed itself aside.
The black shadow slowly fell backwards, Ma Dongbao couldn't draw his knife, and was carried by the fallen black shadow and staggered forward.
Ma Dongbao suddenly felt as if a powerful surge of energy was flowing into his body through his knife, or a strong electric current was transmitted to his body.
Ma Dongbao couldn't say clearly, he only felt trembling all over, as if he had been struck by a powerful thunderbolt.
This sensation lasted for about 30 seconds, and the feeling of numbness all over the body gradually disappeared.
Ma Dongbao made a hard effort, and then he successfully pulled out his knife. Only then did it become clear that what had fallen in front of him was a humanoid piece of armor.
At this point, a rancid smell began to emanate from the knife edge, and then a liquid similar to concentrated water continued to seep out from the inside.
Ma Dongbao was taken aback, he killed someone?
But this is also so strange, this man immediately rotted as soon as he died.
Ma Dongbao didn't have time to think about it, and immediately calculated how to deal with the current situation.
Just run away and don't care about anything. The first thought that popped into Ma Dongbao's mind was quickly denied.
It was already a violation to come out in the middle of the night to make a phone call, and now he has killed someone by mistake. If you run away like this, tomorrow at dawn, if someone finds a body here, they will soon be able to trace it to their head. Because I was the only one who came out in the middle of the night to call.
So you can't run right away, you have to deal with the scene.
Ma Dongbao himself doesn't know when he became so thoughtful? Could it be that in such a harsh environment, people will automatically mature?
The most important thing at the moment is that the bodies must be disposed of. Ma Dongbao leaned down, ready to drag the body to a low-lying place and bury it.
But as soon as he grabbed the armor on the outside of the corpse, the armor fell off automatically. It's all rotten.
Ma Dongbao was holding the armor at a loss, but who knew that the armor was like flowing water, slowly covering his body.
Ma Dongbao was shocked and hurriedly shook off, but no matter how hard Ma Dongbao shook it off, the armor still kept turning into something like fluid and constantly wrapping around himself.
After a while, all the armor was wrapped around Ma Dongbao's body. What surprised Ma Dongbao even more was that the armor was not "worn" on the outside of the clothes, but was clinging to himself through the clothes.
Ma Dongbao didn't dare to stop, and looked at the ground again, the corpse had all turned into a puddle of pus, and the stench was incomparable.
It seemed that the corpse could not be moved, but Ma Dongbao did not dare to be careless, and found small stones to cover the location of the pus.
Ma Dongbao checked what else was left around, and found the knife that the black shadow had just dropped to the ground, and before he could pick it up and take a closer look, the blade of the knife began to soften, and it merged into his body along his arm.
Everything that happened in front of him was already beyond Ma Dongbao's cognition, and no matter how strong his brain circuit was, it couldn't explain the scene in front of him for a while.
I had to continue cleaning the scene, only to find that what was emitting a faint red light before, it turned out to be a small black box-like thing, and the red light was still flashing.
Ma Dongbao couldn't see what it was, so he followed it. The little black box rolled a few times, and the red light finally went out.
Ma Dongbao stepped forward to pick up the small black box and threw it down the back mountain. Only then did he turn around and go down the mountain.
At this time, I felt warm all over my body, and I didn't feel cold when I came out and on the top of the mountain just now. And the pace is particularly brisk, even if it is walking on uneven mountain roads, but it is as brisk as walking on flat ground.
Ma Dongbao quietly went back to the dormitory and was just about to go to bed. Unexpectedly, Wan Shi'an was lying on his bed waiting.
"How's it going?" Wan Shi'an asked in a low voice.
"You didn't lie to me. ”
"Hehe, buddy is a fair deal, Tong Su is not bullied. ”
After Ma Dongbao handed over the black brick to Wan Shi'an, he returned to his bed.
After Ma Dongbao hid in the quilt, he took off all his clothes. Because he didn't dare to check his body outside, in case others found that they had an extra layer of things on their body, and they couldn't explain it clearly, and the matter might be exposed.
I couldn't see anything in the bed, Ma Dongbao could only touch it with his hands.
It felt like I had a thin layer of rubber skin on my body, and I didn't feel any discomfort at all.
touched all over the body and found that Zhou's body was completely covered with a layer of rubber skin. Ma Dongbao began to worry, what if he got up tomorrow morning and everyone found that he had a layer of rubber skin on his face and hands?
It can only be said that the air here is dry, and it has applied a thick layer of protective cream.
