Chapter 747: Thatched House

The plane drove back and landed smoothly.

Back on the ground, Gao Yang was relieved, and he did a very detailed inspection of the plane.

Catherine and Adele accompanied Gao Yang to inspect the plane, and no bullet holes were found in the fuselage, and just as the inspection was nearing the end, Gao Yang, who was under the fuselage, heard two car horns.

Martin drove the car to bring gasoline, and after honking the horn twice to announce his arrival, Martin drove the car directly to the side of the plane, and after jumping out of the car, Martin shouted: "Gao, how's it going, did you find anything?"

Gao Yang shook his head and said: "The only discovery is that after we flew to the airspace of Sudan, we found a military camp, and the soldiers in the military camp were very unfriendly, they shot at me, fortunately, after inspection, our plane was not shot." ”

Martin frowned: "Those soldiers are indeed very unfriendly, we have also been warned, it is better to stay away from them, as far as I know, there are about six or seven such military camps scattered along the border, generally speaking, no one will be happy to approach them, these people are suffocated madmen, now the border between North and South Sudan is not very clear, both sides have crossed the border, and there are frequent battles that are not publicized." ”

Martin came with Bantuna, nicknamed Radar, after Bantuna got out of the car with a fuel pump in his hand, he just listened to the conversation between Gao Yang and Martin, and after Martin finished speaking, Bantuna said calmly: "This kind of thing is normal, there is nothing to say, just stay away from them." All right. Open the fuel tank cap. Cheer me on. ”

Martin drove a new-new pickup truck with a fuel tank on it, and the entire camp relied on the gasoline pulled by the tanker truck for electricity generation and car fuel.

South Sudan is synonymous with a vast and sparsely populated area, where Gao Yang is located, there are no nearby towns, while Ethiopia in the northeast of South Sudan is a tropical rainforest with almost no human population, and Sudan to the north. Except for a few soldiers stationed on the border, there are no inhabitants of the country.

On the edge of this rainforest, even the nomadic Dinka and Nuer don't arrive, so it's a big problem to replenish the petrol once it runs out.

Gao Yang inserted the fuel hose into the mailbox on the plane, and said to Martin, "We have enough gas, right? I mean, how much gas is left for me to fly while making sure the whole camp runs and leaves?"

Martin thought for a moment and then smiled, "There are quite a few, except for generators." We barely used petrol and only one car was petrol. The rest are diesel, and we have a whole tank of petrol, and if your flight is as long as this morning, at least six or seven more flights, that's okay, don't worry, I'll have some more if I run out. ”

Don't worry about the fuel problem, this is good news, looked at the watch, the time is still early, just past one o'clock at noon, unwilling to waste the next time, Gao Yang smiled: "I plan to continue the search in the afternoon, but this time I don't plan to go further north, I want to try my luck in the opposite direction, our lunch will be ready soon." ”

Martin, of course, also hoped to find the Akuri tribe earlier, he spread his hands and smiled: "It's good if you don't feel tired, but I'll make you go back to the camp first and eat before taking off." ”

Gao Yang looked at Catherine, and before she could speak, Catherine said urgently: "Don't ask me, I don't feel tired at all." ”

Adele also said urgently: "I'm not tired, let's take off again, I have a hunch that I can find the Akuri tribe this afternoon." ”

Gao Yang originally planned to fly only once, but he temporarily decided to take off again, and he should eat something to replenish his body or something, which didn't take long to delay, but before Gao Yang could speak, he saw Catherine grinning, and said with a painful face: "What's the recipe for noon?"

Martin grinned and said, "French fries, and a little antelope meat sandwich, the radar shot the little antelope all the way." ”

Hearing Martin's answer, Catherine immediately said with a firm face: "I'm not hungry yet, and there are convenient food we prepared on the plane, so I won't go back to camp." ”

Adele also immediately said: "I don't eat lunch anymore, I'm not hungry." ”

Gao Yang was going to eat, but listening to what Martin said, this lunch seems to be freshly cooked, and it is a rare pleasure to have a hot meal in the wild, but seeing that Catherine and Adele are very determined not to eat lunch, Gao Yang can only give up.

After shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Gao Yang said to Martin: "Okay, then I can't go over to eat, we brought a lot of emergency food, and we won't go hungry." ”

Hearing what Gao Yang said, Bantuna suddenly said, "What did you bring?"

Gao Yang glanced at the plane and said, "Well, biscuits, chocolate, some military compressed biscuits, and some ham." ”

After hearing Gao Yang's words, Bantuna licked his lips and said, "If you bring enough, can you give me some?"

Catherine smiled, "No problem, I'll get it for you." ”

Catherine took two compressed biscuits, a bag of ordinary biscuits, and a Kenyan beef ham, which Gao Yang bought in Malakal and brought, and the taste was okay, but after Bantuna took it, he looked very excited, and even opened it and ate it.

Martin got into the car and left, while Bantuna sat in the passenger seat and began to eat what Catherine had given him at a fast pace, and as he left, Bantuna made a gesture of gratitude to Catherine.

Waiting for Martin to turn around and leave, Catherine let out a long breath and said, "Bantuna and their people are the least demanding people in terms of food, and now even Bantuna can't stand it, ah, really, really terrible Englishmen." ”

Adele also said helplessly: "Terrible British!"

Gao Yang said curiously: "What's the matter? What are you talking about? Adele, aren't you British?"

Adele shrugged her shoulders and said, "I'm British, but after I stayed in the United States for a long time, I nourished my appetite." ”

Gao Yang seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke, laughed, and said, "What do you say? You don't want to say that Americans will eat it, do you? Oh my God, the Americans have spoiled your appetite, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard." ”

Catherine said with a look of resentment: "Is it so funny? Americans don't know how to eat, but we have a lot of choices besides fast food, and the British, oh God, how did they survive, french fries, fish pieces, potatoes that can be eaten with salt, well, after leaving England and not eating fried fish, it's potatoes, potatoes, potatoes! Only potatoes, always potatoes!"

Adele said faintly: "I hate potatoes, I hate death, I hate fried fish, I hate eel jelly, except for refreshments, I hate the traditional food of the British!"

Gao Yang said sneeringly: "Didn't you just say that there is a little antelope sandwich." ”

Catherine sighed and said, "The antelope meat is very fishy, but that's not the point, the point is, Martin's team is basically all British, and the cooks are also British, believe me, when you take a bite of the sandwich and want to throw it away but have to eat it hard, you can understand why Bantuna will be moved to cry when you eat compressed biscuits." ”

Gao Yang scratched his head and said, "I haven't been to the UK, and I haven't eaten anything from the British, well, it seems that this is lucky for me, well, let's eat something and take off." ”

While eating the biscuits that Gao Yang bought, Adele said with a depressed face: "Every time I eat, it is the time when I am most miserable, and in the future, I will never join the British team again, unless they have a foreign cook." ”

Gao Yang couldn't help but imagine how unpalatable Martin's team was, many things that he didn't know were powerful without trying them, and the food was definitely in the ranks, so Gao Yang even had some expectations to try how unpalatable the things made by the British were.

After a brief meal, they took off again, this time heading south.

Similar to the practice in the morning, after flying about 20 kilometers, Gao Yang began to fly back and forth laterally.

Gao Yang's speed towards the south was very slow, because the width of his search in the east and west directions was very large, and after flying back and forth for two hours, the flight had already flown a long way, but the distance from the place of take-off was only thirty or forty kilometers.

Mechanical repetitive work is easy to make people lose their passion, the three of them are bored lying on the plane window looking down, all the eyes are green, and the monotonous scenery makes people drowsy, Gao Yang finally couldn't help but yawn.

Yawning is easily contagious, hearing the sound of high yawning, Catherine and Adele couldn't help yawning, and when Adele opened her mouth wide to yawn, her eyes suddenly widened, and she immediately began to shake Gao Yang, who was sitting in front of her.

"What's wrong?"

Adele's mouth didn't close for a long time, she just pointed desperately out of the window, Gao Yang followed Adele's finger to look over, but found that a layer of smoke that was not very obvious appeared in the field of vision.

The trees are not very dense, but the canopy of the trees is already obscured from seeing the ground, and even if there are people living on the ground, the smoke can no longer maintain the shape of a pillar of smoke after passing through the dense canopy, but forms a layer of mist-like smoke at the top of the canopy, which is not visible from a little distance.

Gao Yang immediately steered the plane to the side of the smoke, but the canopy here was too dense to see if there was anyone on the ground.

Gao Yang flew around twice, and saw that there seemed to be a skylight-like space in the canopy, and immediately lowered the plane again, almost grazing the treetops, and the moment she passed the skylight, Catherine exclaimed, "I see, thatched huts, thatched huts!" (to be continued......)
