Xiao Man took two steps back when he heard this, and sat on the sand stupidly.

They encountered the most thrilling catastrophe of the Great Desert...... Mirage.

Both are highly educated people, Leper is a college student, and Xiao Man is a high school graduate.

They've all heard of the mirage.

The so-called mirage, to put it bluntly, is a wonder in the desert.

The scenery thousands of miles away, reflected on the desert by the refraction of sunlight and clouds, is the so-called mirage.

In other words, the village in front of you is zài, but it is too far away. Like a mirror, it is reflected.

To be clearer, the scene in front is fake, and the eyes deceive them.

Don't say that you can't go to the village, a mirage will lead them astray.

By the time the big leper came to his senses, it was too late, and the scene in front of him slowly disappeared.

At this time, look at it again, the front is yellow sand, the back is yellow sand, and the left and right are yellow sand.

The sky above is very blue and blue, and it is the same as being washed with water.

The yellow sand, like the waves of the sea, is layered on top of each other, and there is no end to it.

The big leper also sat down on the sand. The two of them despair together.

Xiao Man said: "Leper, what should I do? ”

The leper said, "Let's go back and go back to the highway, and if we find the highway, we will be saved." ”

"But...... Why do you want to go back? We...... Lost. ”

The leper said, "Don't be afraid, go back to the original footprints." ”

Xiao Man said, "Okay." ”

So, the two men got up and continued to walk backwards.

By this time, they were all exhausted and had no strength left.

The fatigue can be endured, the key is thirst and hunger.

If you don't have food in your stomach, you don't have energy in your body. Dizzy, limp and limpy, as if stepping on a spring, limp.

The scene in front of me was also blurred, and the sun was two at one time, and three at another.

Xiao Man's body leaned on the leprosy's body, almost dragged by the big leper.

The big leper was distressed, angry that he didn't give the woman happiness, and he also hated that he couldn't bear it, which hurt Xiaoman.

Originally, he came to save the woman, but he didn't expect the woman to be rescued, and he had to take his own life.

"Man'er, are you hungry, thirsty?"

The big leper found that Xiao Man's lips were chapped and blistered. The woman's eyes are misty, and the movements of her footsteps are mechanical.

Xiao Man exhaled softly: "Hungry...... I'm thirsty, but what can I do? Leper, we're going to die, will you leave me alone? ”

The big leper said: "No, if you want to die together, if you want to live, you will live together, I can die with you in this life, I will die without regrets." ”

After more than half a year of getting along, the tribulations of life again and again have long tied the hearts of the two people together.

If in the past, Xiao Man was good to the leprosy and just to help Ergou pay off the debt, then now she is completely dependent on the leprosy. It's simply inseparable.

They slept on a kang, rolled, rippled again and again, were thrown to the crest of the waves, and were thrown down the valley.

They are familiar with each other's bodies, with each other's voices, and that dependence gradually becomes a part of the body. He couldn't live without her, and the more she couldn't live without him.

Xiao Man said: "Leper, I'm going to die, I can see my mother when I die, and my mother is waiting for me over there." ”

The big leper said: "Nonsense! I won't let you die, you can't die before me! ”

"Leper, you go alone, don't worry about me, I won't blame you."

"I'm not going to go, I said, death is going to die together."

The big leper touched his pocket, and the pocket was empty, and there was no dim sum dregs,

Even if you have a bowl of foot-washing water to drink, it's not bad, but there is no foot-washing water.

The water in the desert has evaporated and dried up thousands of years ago, and the whole world is like an abandoned earthen kiln. Everywhere is yellow, everywhere is dry.

Xiao Man's hand suddenly let go of the man, and he fell to the ground.

The big leper found that something was wrong, and desperately pounced on it, picking up Xiao Man.

Xiao Man couldn't see it, and the eyes of the big leper were full of helplessness and pain.

Finally, as soon as he gritted his teeth and took a bite, the tip of his tongue was bitten by him.

A stream of crimson blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

The big leper quickly lowered his head and sent the blood flowing out into Xiao Man's mouth.

Xiao Man smelled a smell of blood, was choked awake, his mouth was sticky, and after a closer look, the woman shouted: "Leper, you are crazy, why are you biting your tongue." ”

The big leper smiled bitterly: "I want to save you, Xiao Man, you drink my blood, don't waste it." ”

As he spoke, he brought his mouth over again, swallowed it to the woman's mouth, and spat the blood into Xiao Man's mouth.

Xiao Man said: "Leper, you are so stupid, you are so stupid, don't, don't!" ”

But she couldn't help the thirst, and as soon as the wet blood entered her mouth, she swallowed it into her throat and swallowed it.

The smell of blood is strong, salty.

In the beginning, many people walked through the desert and drank camel blood when there was no drinking water.

Camel blood can save an emergency, or at least save a life.

In order to let Xiao Man live, the big leper let him drink his own blood.

Xiao Man was very moved, and finally pushed the man away.

"You're going to die, leper, I don't want to kill you."

The big leper said: "I don't want you to die either, Xiaoman, remember, live, hold on, as long as you live, there is hope!" You can't die in the desert, you have to die in a hospital bed at home. You will live a hundred years, and before you die your children will be on your knees, and you will have a great crowd of our children. ”

Xiao Man unearths the hidden kindness of the big leper. Men are inherently kind.

He used to be fierce, vicious, and unkind in Daliang Mountain, and he was completely forced by hatred.

"Leper, promise me that when you go out in the future, don't be embarrassed for Uncle Ergou, okay? Don't be embarrassed to ...... Brother Tianhao. ”

The big leper said: "I know, I know, Xiao Man, I just want you to live, live." ”

The two men hugged each other and cried, the catastrophe fused their bodies together, and he fused their souls together.

They didn't go, they sat on the beach, and just waited, waiting for death to come.

You can't go out, because you're completely disoriented, and it's better to sit back and wait for you to die.

Xiao Man's body was so oblique in the arms of the leper, she was very content.

She had a smile on her face, and she was going to leave this world with a smile.

"Leper, just die like this, do you think it's worth it?"

The leper said, "It's worth it, with you, it's worth everything." ”

"Do you still miss Aunt Liu? Is she still hanging on to her? ”

The leper said: "My fate with Aunt Liu is over, I have turned the page, now there is only you in my heart, everywhere is you, you are in my heart, you are in my head, and what flows in my veins is also your shadow." You are all my qiē, hold all the qiē in your arms before you die, how can it not be worth it! ”

As the saying goes, people are dying, their words are good, and birds are dying, and their songs are sad.

He didn't feel that these words were sensual, he just wanted to say what was in his heart, so as not to leave regrets.

In fact, he didn't say it, Xiao Man also understood, he understood everything, just now he bit his tongue and fed her with his own blood, which is equivalent to saying everything.

On the sand, neither of them moved, and the big leper hugged Xiao Man's waist.

The setting sun shone on the two men, and a long shadow was dragged out of the ground.

It should be two shadows, but the two shadows have merged together.

Sometimes, it's not so easy to die, I don't know how long I have been boiling, and the Grim Reaper has not come, but the sky is dark.

The evening temperature was a little cold, and he warmed her, and she warmed him.

Anyway, you're going to die, and you're still afraid of the cold? The sky is falling, the earth is shaking, and the end of the world has nothing to do with them.

They don't care about the world anymore.

The night was very quiet, and there was not a single bird in mid-air, nor could I hear a single insect chirping.

They just wanted to die in such a quiet place, like the nameless bones of the desert.

Without saying a word, without saying a word, they just snuggled up to each other and clung to each other.

The sweat on his body was gone, dried by the wind, as if a layer of salt particles had formed, and his clothes were hard and panicked.

The true Grim Reaper comes in the middle of the night. At that time, a wild wolf spotted their shadow.

It was a desert yellow wolf, not very tall, with sharp eyes. Yellow hair.

When he saw the two of them, the yellow wolf was also startled.

I don't know if this man and woman are dead or alive, and whether they will fight back.

The yellow wolf was very vigilant and approached them little by little. Tentatively moving forward step by step.

At first, the wolf thought they were dead, and it should be two dead bodies. But when it got closer, and when I looked closely, the big leper actually opened its eyes.

The yellow wolf was frightened and took a step back, and said in his heart: "Fake the corpse!"

The big leper was not afraid, and Xiao Man was not afraid, and the two of them still did not move.

Anyway, if you want to die, starvation, thirst, exhaustion, and being bitten to death by a wolf, it's the same death.

It is better to die of thirst and starvation, than to be bitten to death by a wolf, at least to die happily and suffer less sin.

Therefore, Xiao Man and the leper not only did not hate the wolf, but were grateful to the wolf. He smiled at the wolf.

Come on, come and bite us to death, we can't wait.

What are you doing in a daze? It can't be a foolish wolf, right?

The more the leper and Xiao Man didn't move, the more the wolf couldn't figure out what they meant. Worried that the two of them would suddenly rise up and attack it.

That kind of calmness frightens wolves, and I have never seen a natural enemy who will be so calm when encountering a wolf. Must be a tough opponent to deal with.

No, summon the rescuers!

So, the wolf jumped out of the distance in one step, his neck was raised, his mouth was open, the wolf hair on his body was shaken, and the sky was a howl: "Whoa, whoa!" ”

This is a distress signal, and all wolves in the world are like this, and when they encounter large prey, they will call their companions and attack them in groups.

After the wolf howl, sure enough, another wolf howl came from not far away: "Whoa, whoa!" ”

Like a beacon, this signal was transmitted one by one, reaching deeper into the desert.

Soon, one wolf after another galloped over, approaching the position of the big leper and Xiao Man.

One, two, three, ten, twenty. In less than an hour, there were more than 30 of them.

The wolves swarmed together, encircling the big leper and Xiao Man in the middle.

The big leper said to Xiao Man: "Man'er, are you afraid?" ”

Xiaoman said: "Don't be afraid, leper, let's see you in the next life, in the next life, I will still be your woman." ”

The big leper said: "Okay, I will still be your man in the next life, remember, when you cross the Nai He Bridge, don't drink Meng Po soup, if you don't drink it, I won't drink it, we still have to remember each other in the next life." ”

The big leper laughed, and Xiao Man laughed too.

The man hugged the woman tighter, and the leper blocked the wolf's teeth with his body.

Even if I bite, the wolf will bite me to death first, and Xiao Man must not die in front of me.

To the great leprosy's surprise, the wolves did not attack them immediately. Instead, they circled around them.

It was also far away from the two of them, more than ten meters.

The wolves were scratching their heads, because the two men were motionless.

Although horses are afraid of whips, cows are afraid of knives, dogs are afraid of bricks, and wolves are afraid of burning. But wolves are often afraid of people who are still and immobile.

They do not dare to attack rashly until they know the details of their prey.

Instead, one of the big wolves at the front crouched down and tilted his head to look at them.

The big leper knew they were waiting, waiting for the moment when he and Xiao Man fell.
