Chapter 6
Boom –
A rocket streaked over Damascus and exploded in the ruined temple north of Palmyra.
The earth shook violently.
The iron sheet next to it fell down with a bang, raising dust that filled the smoke of gunpowder.
None of the mobile phones in his hand were held steady, and he fell to the ground.
The wandering memories were pulled back in an instant, Bu Yanxi hurriedly went to pick up the mobile phone, but heard a terrible scream, turned her head, and saw her immediate boss, the front-line media person in charge this time, lying on the ground in pain, his injured thigh was crushed by the steel plate that had just collapsed, and the blood was not stopping.
The first time she saw such a bloody scene, for a moment, her mind went blank and she couldn't think about anything.
Qin Wen quickly ran to his side, turned her head and shouted at the girl who was stunned.
"Small steps, let's take a hand."
Bu Yanxi came back to her senses and hurriedly ran over to help.
It took a lot of effort for the two of them to remove the steel bars that were pressed on the man's legs, Qin Wen took out a piece of gauze from the medical bag he was wearing and pressed it on his bleeding thigh, and said to him comfortingly, "I have sent a call for help to the headquarters, if you hold on a little longer, the rescue team will come immediately." ”
The scorching sun slowly moved westward, and the ruins became more and more desolate and cruel in the setting sun.
More than 200 kilometers away, huge explosions were heard from time to time over Damascus, and unusually bright lights pierced the coming night, and then explosions of smoke rose into the air.
Outside the shelter made of iron sheets and steel bars, Bu Yanxi leaned tiredly against the stone mill, looking at the shining night sky in a daze.
The air was still filled with the steaming factor, mixed with the smell of gunsmoke, which made people nervous and exhausted.
"Xiaobu, are you tired?"
Qin Wen walked out of the shelter shed, and what she saw was the girl sitting diagonally next to the ruins, so she couldn't help but put down the flashlight in her hand and sat next to her.
"It's fine." Bu Yanxi leaned a little closer to the side so that she could sit over, thought about it again, and said honestly, "But it's harder than I thought." ”
Qin Wen smiled understandingly, pointed to the night sky shining with stray bullets and asked, "See those?" ”
"I still remember the first time I came to the battlefield to follow the film, I experienced an armed night attack." She recalled the past, her tone was very emotional, but her expression was very tenacious when she looked at the night sky, "There were five of us at the time, all hiding under the car and not daring to go out, many people were crying and screaming, and when we climbed out, it was already noon the next day, and the whole city was full of devastation, corpses on the streets, and blood and water on the ground. I had an understanding at that time, here, be ready to die in the artillery fire at any time. She paused and looked at the girl next to her, "Xiaobu, why did you choose to be a war correspondent?" ”
"Me?"
Qin Wen nodded, looked at her ten fingers clenching her phone, and said gently, "You have a pair of pampered hands." ”
It can be seen that this young girl's family background should be good, even after such a thrilling day, the embarrassment all over her body can't hide her elegant temperament, no matter how you look at it, it is incompatible with this devastated place.
In other words, she is more like a flower living in a greenhouse, not at all like a person who can survive in this cruel environment. When she saw her for the first time yesterday, Qin Wen was even a little suspicious of her eyes.
Bu Yanxi's eyes were sad for a moment, and then she smiled slightly, and asked instead of answering, "Why does Sister Qin want to be a war correspondent?" ”
"Me." Seeing her evasion, Qin Wen didn't force to ask, just looked at the night sky and sighed, "Probably like most colleagues, I want to use the camera in my hand to eliminate the war." ”
"Great volunteer." Bu Yanxi tugged at the corners of her mouth and looked down at the phone with a black screen, "I don't have such an awareness." ”
Qin Wen smiled slightly, "Because of that boy?" ”
She raised her head in surprise, but saw the other party pouting at the hand in her hand, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face, "The boy on your screensaver is your boyfriend, right?" I see you've been looking at your phone today. ”
"It's not." Bu Yanxi showed an embarrassed expression that seemed to be smiling, "He's not my boyfriend." ”
"Isn't it?" Hearing this, Qin Wen couldn't help but be surprised, "Which star is that?" It's so good-looking. ”
Bu Yanxi moved her lips, not knowing how to answer the question.
At this moment, the radio signal in the shed suddenly sounded.
Qin Wen immediately stood up, and her usually calm tone could not hide her joy, "It must be the rescue team that received our distress signal, I'll go in and take a look." After saying that, she turned around and went back to the shelter, leaving Bu Yanxi leaning against the stone mill, and the continuous stray bullets lit up the misty night sky, swept by, and passed away, making a shocking dense sound like heavy rain falling to the ground.
It also made her heart hesitate.
- What about you? And why do you want to be a war correspondent?
- Because of that boy?
- The boy on your screensaver is your boyfriend, right?
The memories came one after another, unusually crowded, forcing her tears out vividly, and then remembering those memories, the initial misunderstanding between them seemed to have started at that time......
