23

In order to survive, Deng Jiapu and Wang Tao had to lie, they discussed, no matter who it fell into, they said that the information was half of the person, and it was hidden somewhere separately. To get all the information, you have to show up both at the same time. But from this day on, they swore a poisonous oath that even if they died, they would not be able to tell the direction of each other's escape. In other words, it is impossible for them to meet in this life.

The two of them said goodbye in tears, and that scene was really emotional.

Hearing the call of the eagle, Deng Jiapu, who was standing on the sand beam, immediately understood that he had met the "** elf" again, and then he found that Honghaizi had human traces, and when he saw that it was a new survey team, his heart was so dark that he couldn't be darker anymore.

The People's Liberation Army is the People's Liberation Army, and in such a short time, it was able to form a special second regiment!

And this time, they actually preferred Honghaizi!

Deng Jiapu escaped the black storm in the karez, and hid in the dry well or crypt like a ghost for several nights, and finally didn't let Luo Zhengxiong's people smell the breath. But his body couldn't bear it. The pigeon that he swallowed, and the two hares, although they resisted hunger at the critical moment, were fire, more fierce than fire, and burned his whole body black, and if he could not find any more water, he was afraid that he would be burned to death by the blood of the pigeon. Thinking like this, he decided to take a risk and try his luck in Qiduoerliang.

When Deng Jiapu touched the seven stacks of beams, the fifth master of the camel had been guarding the holy well for five days and five nights, and everyone was about to lose confidence. It was the middle of the night, and there was a bleak starlight in the sky, and the ground was gently dusty. Deng Jiapu walked to the edge of the village according to the direction he had seen in advance, the holy well was in the south of the village, there were a few poplars there, and there was a crooked-necked poplar, the poplar was very old, I was afraid that it was longer than the village's year, but it was still alive, the trunk was empty, and a few maids appeared on the tree. There is a crow's nest on top of the branch, where the crows chirp happily all year round. The seven stacks are not annoying, and by the crow's temperament, they can scream whatever they want. If you meet an outsider who doesn't know the inside story and wants to get rid of the crow, the Qiduoer people will not agree. They believe that the crow and the holy well are the veins of the seven stacks, or the crows have been calling for hundreds of years, how can the seven stacks of people be fine, generation after generation is more prosperous, generation after generation is more promising. Even the old shepherd, a desert escapee, is now full of children and grandchildren, and camels are in a herd. Deng Jiapu is familiar with the crow, followed the Ma family soldiers, this area has been walked, the Ma family soldiers also caught a few strong men in Qiduo Erliang, and later they all put on military uniforms, and the most outstanding one also hung a box gun in his waist, I heard that he has also arrived in Taiwan now. The world is like smoke, and Deng Jiapu feels a little uncomfortable. This is an indescribable kind of discomfort, tossing and turning, he has fallen to such a point, not only has there been no hope for the future, but it has become so difficult to drink a sip of water.

Thinking about the water, Deng Jiapu felt strong under his feet, and seemed to be a little reckless of the risk. In fact, there is no risk, the big deal is to die, and you have to drink enough water before you die. He was so relieved and encouraged himself, but he also frustrated himself and hit himself. After all, the word death is very scary, especially a person who has a belly of knowledge, especially a person who has never tasted the taste of a woman until now, and especially a person who lives to this day and does not know the life and death of his parents. All of these have become Deng Jiapu's sadness, and a stream of brains poured out, making him lament that life is such a failure and such a boring life.

After walking a few steps further, Deng Jiapu heard the crow chirping, and the crow crow this night was very strange, which was completely different from what Deng Jiapu had heard before. Generally speaking, there is a smell of mourning in the crow's call, which sounds musty and unlucky, but this night no, this night the crow is very happy, it is a little too excited, and it is almost forgotten what kind of bird it is, and it is more beautiful than a magpie.

Deng Jiapu suddenly stopped walking, the crow would not call like this, if it called like this, there was something wrong.

Lying in the grass, with the help of the hazy starlight, Deng Jiapu observed quietly for a long time, and suddenly understood that the calm of Qiduoer Liang was pretended, it was pretended and manipulated by a certain conspiracy, and deliberately presented him with a picture of the peace of the world, in fact, in this peace, there is a hidden danger of cannibalism. Deng Jiapu is by no means a nerd, if that, he would not be able to go today, his judgment of the current situation and his observation of the unfavorable situation are far above his peers, so he has gone farther and more difficult than his peers. Behind the difficulty, the key is that ambition is at work, otherwise he would have become a character of his size, and he would still need to suffer this crime?

Deng Jiapu quickly turned around, and at an unimaginable speed, he left Qiduoer Liang in a blink of an eye. From this point, we can judge how resolute he is, in the face of the temptation of the holy well, in the face of the possibility of life, he can resolutely turn around, continue to endure the torment of thirst, and run to safety. Yes, safety is the first priority at the moment, and safety has become the only thing he wants to grasp.

Lucky for him, not long after turning around, he picked up a small water bladder, which was dropped by the children in the village while playing. When he drank it in his mouth, it was sweet and cool, and it made him feel that this was the sweetest water he had ever drunk in his life.

He has strength, and for those who are lost in the desert, a sip of water is a huge strength, and it is a strong support to live. He actually drank more than one sip, and after walking for another three days and three nights, he still had the strength.

Deng Jiapu didn't go for three days and three nights, and after two days and two nights, he stood on the dry donkey skin beach.

This is a sudden decision made halfway through, only by crossing the dry donkey skin beach, can his life have hope, he can completely get rid of the black man and the iron cat their pursuit, as for how to live in the future, Deng Jiapu is unwilling to think, and he has no energy to think, what he wants to think about is how to cross this beach of death.

In retrospect, Deng Jiapu felt that everything was providential, and if God didn't let you escape, it would be difficult for you to escape. Even if you pass through ten dry donkey skins, death is still waiting for you.

Deng Jiapu met Ma Laosan, the camel guest, it was not all a coincidence, in fact, this was also in his calculation, to be familiar with the desert, you must first be familiar with the camel passengers, and if you master their tracks and itinerary, your chances of surviving in the desert will be half greater. Camel riders do not kill, especially those who have been running in the desert for many years, they will be very kind when they see life, as long as you do not take the initiative to attack them, and do not expose the conspiracy to rob the camel team or property, they will generally get along with you friendly. If you are a person at the end of the road, they will lead you out of the desert and show you a way out. There are rules for what to do, the camel guest line, walking through the ghost gate, eating Hades rice, making **** friends, and sleeping with other people's wives. They have always looked at life and death as simpler than eating and sleeping, and it is precisely because of their simplicity that they can easily not die, and they easily do not let others die. None of the dead can be considered real camels.

Ma Laosan rode a camel, sang a western tune, and walked leisurely into the dry donkey skin beach. It's another morning, the sun hasn't had time to rise, and the energetic Ma Laosan has taken a few big jobs in a row, and the more he goes, the more he feels that the bowl of rice tastes fragrant. At present, 100,000 troops are heading to the desert Gobi, reclamation of wasteland, coal digging of coal, and road construction, and really putting on a posture of stationing in the frontier, which makes the inside and outside of the frontier immediately lively. Some people think that this is a good thing, with the People's Liberation Army stationed, there will be a guarantee for doing things in the future, so that the bandits will not be allowed to rob and plunder, so they are in a hurry to fight outside the territory and run into Xinjiang, and they will not be able to run without the camel passengers. Gold, silver, fine tobacco, and cloth, medicinal herbs, all the valuable things in the family, including the newly married little wife, were entrusted to Ma Laosan. "Ma Laosan, this trip, you rush for me, I want to be in a hurry to occupy a foothold in Xinjiang." To occupy the foot is to take the lead, to fire your own cannon before the opening of other people's shops. "No Mada, you just have to walk empty, and make sure to be faster than you." Ma Laosan responded, he did what he said, and he never delayed people on the journey. Some people also think that this is a bad thing, very bad, aren't the PLA specialized in fighting, what are they doing in Xinjiang if they don't fight? It's hard to say, it's really hard to say, when I think about their fight against local tyrants and divide the land, I can't sit still more and more unsteadily, "Ma Laosan, you just work hard, hurry up a few times, I don't dare to stay in this Xinjiang." "If you don't dare to stop, you have to escape, and you can't escape without Ma Laosan. Coming and going like this, Ma Laosan was entangled in business, and it was really too late to take the desert road. Dry donkey skin beach is a shortcut, a trip to say less also saves five or six days, back and forth is half a month. Half a month, there are several and a half months in a person's life, and saving it is earning, and Ma Laosan loves to do donkey skin. For him, the dry donkey skin beach is the silver of white flowers, and it is a good reputation. Add a five-peaked camel back and forth, think about it, what will it be like to run like this for three years!

Thirteen months, a year

Qin Qiong Jingde is in Miliangchuan

Three lashes to pay back two

The two of us will protect the country for Tang Wangye

Twelve months, a year

The father-in-law died in the Storm Pavilion

It's cruel to peel the flax

Thousands of generations to the present day

Eleven months of frost

Wang Xiang lies on the ice to save his mother

His mother was sick

To eat carp dispensing medicine lead

Ten months, yo yo, ten months

Meng Jiangnu was originally Fan Lang's wife

Fan Lang is fighting in the Great Wall

Meng Jiangnu went thousands of miles to deliver winter clothes

This is Ma Laosan's best western tune "Pearl Inverted Roller Blind", sung to the first month of the thirteenth month, an allusion in January, what is the allusion, according to Ma Laosan's understanding, the allusion is the principle of being a man, that is, the philosophy of a living person, singing it is not only to relieve boredom, but also to remind yourself, what money should be earned, what money should not be earned. Of course, the same is true for women, what women can sleep and what women can't sleep, Ma Laosan knows very well.

While he was singing, a shadow suddenly fell in front of him, and fell on the way of his caravan. Others can't see this way, but Ma Laosan can see it clearly. Ma Laosan jumped off the camel, walked to the shadow, took two steps and stopped, thought about it, and concluded that it was not a bandit who deceived him, nor was it a thief who plundered him. The thieves and bandits are all at night, and Ma Laosan is famous on the camel road for a while, and the heroes of all parties give him face, presumably no one dares to get along with him at this time. I walked over and looked at it carefully, and it was clear that I might be able to run for my life if I met someone who got lost, or ran for my life. As soon as I looked at my face, I knew that I had drunk too much pigeon blood and was not far from death. Ma Laosan didn't hesitate, there is this rule on the camel road, whether it is a bandit or a thief, you have to save it first. Turn around and get the water and feed it one bite at a time. When he woke up, it was noon, and under the sun, Deng Jiapu intermittently told the lies he had made. He said that his name was Wuzi, a native of Xinjiang, his father was dead, his mother was gone, and his newly married daughter-in-law asked the enemy to kill him, and the enemy still didn't spare him, and he wanted to kill him, so he could only flee and flee outside the territory.

"What's the vengeance?" Ma Laosan asked.

"I can't say a sentence or two, the feud, the grandfather's body."

Ma Laosan sighed, don't ask, asking about other people's hatred is equivalent to revealing other people's scars and shaking people's bottoms, this matter is not bright. Just walking, walking, Ma Laosan suddenly asked: "Why do I see that you don't look like a farmer, but like an official eater?" ”

"That's right, you're right, your eyes are so accurate." After drinking enough water and riding on the camel again, Deng Jiapu shook a lot, and the worries of several months were swept away, and he was already thinking about the future. When he heard Ma Laosan ask, he hurriedly said: "A few years ago, I ran errands in the national ** and was a deserter, but as soon as the People's Liberation Army came, I returned home. I wanted to plant crops, but I couldn't plant them, I wanted to raise sheep, and I didn't think that there was a snow last year, and they all froze to death. Ma Lao Sanxin, southern Xinjiang did fall heavy snow last year, snow blocked the mountains, closed the roads, not only the sheep froze so that there were not a few left, even the people, also froze to death.

"I mean, look at you and you're not a sufferer." The heel of the camel team wanted to interject, but Ma Laosan drank it back with a look, the heel is the heel, and you don't have the right to interject. He turned around with his feet and quarreled with the little daughter-in-law behind him. Everyone else has their own business, and they don't have time to deal with this person who picks up halfway.

Deng Jiapu felt a lot more at ease, and after the first hurdle, the rest was easy to deal with.

Talking, talking, without a gap, sighed twice, and passed the day. Resting at night, Ma Laosan suddenly asked: "Why did you enter the dry donkey skin beach?" ”

"Dry donkey skin?" Deng Jiapu was surprised, saying that he didn't know that this was called Dry Donkey Skin Beach at all. "What's so strange about this beach?" He asked rhetorically.

"If you want to say yes, you can't say it in a sentence or two, and if you want to say no, it really doesn't. Forget it, don't talk about it, go to bed early, get up at five watch tomorrow morning, and you have to hurry. ”

Falling asleep, Deng Jiapu suddenly asked: "There is a camel old five, do you recognize it?" ”

"Recognize, how do you know?" It turned out that Ma Laosan hadn't slept for half a day, and his eyes were still open.

"He knew my father, I saw him when I was running errands in the national **, and he was a good person."

"He's a good person, but I haven't seen him for a long time, and it's hard to meet an old friend."

"I heard...... What is he doing for the PLA now? ”

"I've never heard of this, it's all for whomever it's done, it's all for the silver."

"I'm afraid there are also those who don't have silver." Deng Jiapu was unwilling, as if he wanted to lead the topic deeply. Ma Laosan turned around: "Sleep, if you don't sleep, you won't have time to sleep." ”

Then, for several days on end, the two of them rarely spoke. Dry donkey skin beach is not a beach of words, the more you go inside, you will know why it is called dry donkey skin beach. This beach always asks for people's lives, and as the shopkeeper, Ma Laosan has too many things to worry about and too many people to deal with. This trip was for a wealthy family in Xinjiang, carrying not only silver taels, but also twenty people, large and small, as well as the rich family's ancestral furniture, treasures, and his troubled girls and squeamish little wives. In short, the heart that can't be, the endless spit. Deng Jiapu is idle, idle, free, and free. The episode is that he talks to other people's little daughter-in-law non-stop, the little daughter-in-law is married to the eldest son, the eldest son is not angry, and he is infected with big smoke, this way, it is no different from the dead, the little daughter-in-law probably can't stand his dead popularity, so she wants to say a few more words to the men who are pleasing to the eye, look around, this passerby, the most pleasing to the eye is the five sons picked up halfway.

Ma Laosan does not stop it, as long as there is laughter, as long as there is the sound of talking, this camel team will have vitality, vitality is popularity, popularity is spirit.

In his spare time, he still has to roar two throats of pearls and inverted curtains:

In September, yo yo nine double yang

Huang Chao raised an army to destroy the Tang Dynasty

Chen Jing is a pillar general

Shatuobao moved troops to save King Yang Jing

In August, the moon is full

Liu Quan went to the underworld

The pumpkin has entered the Hades Palace

Li Cuilian who borrowed the corpse to resurrect her soul

In July, yo yo, July 7

The Cowherd in the sky will be the Weaver Girl

One from the east and one from the west

The magpie bridges the two and depends on each other

……

In the singing, there are also camel bells that clink and tink.

There was no danger all the way, it was smooth, and when he was about to get out of the beach, Ma Laosan asked: "Out of the beach, where are you going?" ”

Deng Jiapu thought for a while: "Where you go, what else can you expect to live here." ”

"That's right, people, living one step at a time, thinking about it is in vain." Ma Laosan echoed.

As soon as he said that, he went out of the beach, and just when the Deng family was full of thanks, said a lot of words of gratitude, and was about to leave in the reluctant eyes of the little daughter-in-law, Ma Laosan suddenly said: "By the way, suddenly remember a person, he can help you." ”

"Who?"

"Look." As soon as he pointed to the situation, he saw that there was suddenly an extra person on the beach, Deng Jiapu took a look, and his mother said, and his soul came out. The person waiting at the end of the dry donkey skin beach was none other than the fifth camel master who Deng Jiapu wanted to inquire.

The fifth master smiled and gave Ma Laosan a thumbs up. Deng Jiapu, who woke up in a panic, was just about to flee, and a few people appeared around the fifth master, who were the soldiers of the Special Second Regiment who had been guarding the holy well.

After listening to Yu Hai's report, Luo Zhengxiong let out a knowing smile, he really didn't expect that the fifth master of the camel still had this hand. However, the fifth master of the camel was modest, he said that he didn't dare to bet on Ma Laosan at the beginning, but just said hello to him, and he didn't expect to really let him bet on it, and the desperate Deng Jiapu really got into the dry donkey skin beach.

"He's throwing himself into the net, no wonder Ma Laosan." The fifth master of the camel said.

"No, you're still right with your analysis." Luo Zhengxiong said sincerely.

At that moment, Luo Zhengxiong ordered someone to quickly escort Deng Jiapu to the division headquarters and hand him over to the division headquarters for interrogation.

Deng Jiapu was arrested, and Luo Zhengxiong's heart disease was gone. There is only one Wang Tao left, and it is expected that he will not be able to escape anywhere.

Two days later, in the evening, he asked Wanyue out again, walking in the breezy desert, Luo Zhengxiong's heart swayed, and the words he had thought of suddenly let the wind blow away, his face was red, but he couldn't spit out a word. However, Wan Yue was generous, and said as soon as she opened her mouth: "I heard that your Jiang Wanyin brought you another pair of shoes?" ”

What a disappointment! Luo Zhengxiong said hatefully: "It's not shoes, it's a few bags of dried radish." ”

"She's so bothered, a few bags of dried turnips, how many turnips have to be dried."
