Chapter 8 Just Eat This?
Sprouts, what is this, you found it? "I turned off the safety and put the gun behind my back, feeling a lot more relaxed.
"Night owl, this is a fucking crashed plane." Sun Tianpao said to me with a puzzled face.
"Airplanes?" I thought it was incredible, so I turned on the flashlight and walked towards the wreckage of the plane. Under the limited lighting of the flashlight, I saw the details of the wreckage, which was a J-7, shattered and scattered, with parts scattered in a large area around it.
Actually, I don't know much about flying machines, and I can't even tell the difference between a fighter and a strong attack aircraft. In this field is basically a blank, but the model of this aircraft, I am still very familiar, I have seen photos of this aircraft in military magazines in the early years, in addition, at that time, this kind of aircraft with a strange shape of the front airway is a representative of China's aviation industry into supersound, and it has appeared in various propaganda albums.
Just when I was puzzled, Chen Yan and the monkey ran over panting, and when they saw this pile of things, Chen Yan let out a low voice: "Whew, I thought it was something, such a plane wreckage, as for such a fuss,"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and showed us what he was holding: "No, there are some sand willows over there, 500 meters there, which can be used to light a bonfire," and as he spoke, he put down the dried sand willow branches, but he walked to the wreckage first and studied it carefully.
I lit a fire with the monkey on the side, and Chen Yan and Sun Tiancang observed the wreckage little by little with the help of a strong flashlight.
The oiliness of the branches of Salix is still relatively large. After a while, the bonfire was blazing, and the three of us sat around it. After a while, Chen Yan and the others also returned. Sit next to the campfire to warm up.
"This plane crash is a bit strange," Chen Yan rubbed his hands together and stared at the fire.
"So, can you tell how the plane crashed?" Sun Tianpao asked
"I don't have that ability," Chen Yan waved his hand and continued: "It doesn't matter how wrecked, I found a few things wrong."
I knew that Chen Yan was a delicate person who was easy to see the details that we couldn't see, so I asked him, "What's wrong with that?" ”
Chen Yan looked quite calm: "First, the plane is not a forced landing, the plane has caught fire and burned, and then exploded after falling to the ground, so the pilot will eject off the plane, but the pilot's seat is still there, the catapult rocket is still there, second, if the pilot is not ejected off the plane, then how can there be no body, third, look at the condition of this wreckage, it has been 20 years since it fell here, 20 years ago J-7 was high-tech, why didn't the airport tower search and rescue?" Is there anyone cleaning up the site? ”
I thought about it carefully and found that it really had nothing to do with our task, our task was how to get out, so I said to Chen Yan: "Don't bother with that brain, it was stabbed down with a bamboo pole, and it has nothing to do with us,"
Sun Tianpao immediately expressed his support: "Yes, we don't know how many days there will be before we can go out, eating and drinking are problems, don't worry about it" said, added some more branches, and sighed: "In my opinion, this plane is of no use to us, I thought at first, will there be anything on the plane that can be used to make a fire, but then I found out that damn it, everything that can be burned is burned clean." “
The monkey had already leaned on the wreckage, laid out his sleeping bag, put his backpack under his head, and said to Chen Yan: "Comrade Captain, it's time to blow out the lights, and we will continue to rush tomorrow." “
Chen Yan looked up at the starry sky, and then looked at his watch, it was already more than 9 o'clock in the evening, took a deep breath, and said: "Starting from me, 2 hours in shifts, the rest of the people sleep!" So saying, he went and got his gun.
Sun Tiancang said: "I said captain, it's not necessary, there is no hair in this place, what kind of post is it?"
Chen Yan didn't say anything, picked up his gun, sat against the wreckage of the plane, his eyes were blazing, and we all got into the sleeping bags,
The specific heat capacity of sand is relatively small, and it absorbs heat quickly and dissipates heat quickly. At this time, the sand under our bodies was already cold and exuding moisture, and our sleeping bags were military sleeping bags, which were worse than this for climbing Mount Everest. I buried my head in my sleeping bag, and in a few moments, I felt like I was asleep.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, I replaced Sun Tianpao and sat there bored, not long after Sun Tianpao got into the sleeping bag, he fell asleep.
The bonfire had long since been extinguished. In this absolutely dark and absolutely quiet environment, after a long time, you will doubt your presence. Fortunately, after a while, Sun Tiancano's snoring sounded.
My mind began to wander with thoughts. Think about where you are now, and compare it to life in high school. I feel like my whole body is prostration, and I know that I am not the material for special service, and I usually watch Hollywood blockbusters, and I am satisfied with my appearance as a superhero. Standing guard in such a place where birds don't poop, there is a big gap in my heart.
It seems that I really don't have the consciousness of Liu Ju, Chen Yan, and Sun Tiancano. Defend! Defending has become their habit, their life.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, they all woke up, and the speed at which the soldiers got up was not something that ordinary people could imagine.
Sun Tianpao also woke up, to be precise, he was awakened by hunger, he had eaten almost nothing since he ate some compressed biscuits yesterday, and most importantly, we didn't drink a drop of water.
Water is the most important part of desert survival. We gathered around and looked at the compressed biscuits in our hands, and we felt that our throats had been scraped by the dry and hard biscuit residues.
Sun Tianpao angrily put away the biscuits in his hand. Standing up, he put his hand on the pergola and looked around, as if expecting to see an oasis.
Chen Yan nibbled on the compressed biscuits, and said to Sun Tianpao with a smile: "I remember, in this desert, there are some seasonal game to eat, I don't know if you can eat it." ”
"As long as it's not as dry as biscuits, I can eat anything now"
Chen Yan listened, and didn't say much, he threw the last bit of compressed biscuits into his mouth, chewed hard, and then picked up the sprouts and walked into the distance, and after a while, he heard two gunshots, and Chen Yan came back. There were two things in my hand, and I couldn't tell what they were. It was about 30 centimeters long, with triangular scales on its body, and its head was smashed by bullets, and it was disgusting.
Chen Yan threw the two things in front of Sun Tianpao, "No, add food, this thing is not something that anyone can eat." “
Sun Tianpao was also the master who had seen the scene, and he lifted it with his tail and lifted it, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, lizard, captain, where the hell did you get it, why didn't I think of it." ”
Chen Yan smiled: "I also remembered it just now, my college roommate, who happened to study sand lizards in the animal institute, this thing would lie on the sand in the morning to bask in the sun, motionless, and wait for the body to warm up before looking for food." “
The monkey also came up: "It's a little meaning, it's much better than what we ate when we fought in the jungle, at that time we ate snakes, earthworms and bats, and after eating this, Lao Tzu's recipe is the same." As he spoke, he licked his lips.
Sun Tiancang carried the lizard, frowned, and said to Chen Yan: "Personally, it should be much better than compressed biscuits, if there is a fire, peel the skin and clean the body and bake it, it is also delicious" said, looked at me, and looked at me with a provocative gaze: "How do you night owl, chew one?" High in protein, and it can also replenish water," he said, with a wicked smile on his face.
My disgusting face turned white, and I waved my hand to signal that I would not eat.
The monkeys picked up another one on the ground, cut off the bast from the lizard's surface with a dagger, and put the whole lizard to their mouths and chewed it. Sun Tiancang also concocted the same method, cut half of it for the sprouts, and chewed it himself, feeling like he was enjoying it.
This is the true face of human beings drinking blood, hundreds of millions of years ago, our ancestors also ate like this. But I found it terrifying. Sure enough, it's really not an exaggeration to say that I'm a wastewood. I looked down and didn't look at their eating images. Silently gnawed on my compressed biscuits, there was no water, and it was uncomfortable to choke.
But compared to eating lizards, I still think compressed cookies are simply delicious.
Chen Yan waited for everyone to finish eating, and then beckoned us to go on the road, and looked at the direction where the sun had just risen, and we still headed all the way north.
