Chapter 2: Bone Heaps

Aunt Xiang, what did you call me for? Da Lei walked into the house, picked up the freshly washed cucumber on the table and took a bite. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's too hot this day, and the cucumber is refreshing and delicious, and it tastes just right!

"It's nothing, it's just that my radio is broken, and the sound is always rattling, you can help me take a look." Aunt Xiang was chopping vegetables in the kitchen and said without looking back.

"Done!" Da Lei rolled up his sleeves and fiddled with the radio and pondered carefully.

"Where's my uncle?"

"There's something going on in the factory, and I haven't come back yet."

"Oh." Da Lei snorted and lowered his head to repair.

Strange, this radio is new, it didn't take long, and the parts inside are all good, how can there be noise?

"Da Lei! How's it going? Aunt Xiang's voice came from the kitchen.

"Almost! I'll put one to try first. As he spoke, Da Lei tapped the radio twice and pressed to play. Soon, Uncle Xiang's favorite song "Ussuri Boat Song" echoed clearly and melodiously in the room: "Ah, what about Herehehe...... The Ussuri River is long and long, the blue river has waves, the Hezhe people spread a thousand nets, and the boats are full of fish and fish......."

Da Lei wiped the sweat from his forehead and shouted to the kitchen: "Aunt Xiang, it's repaired!" ”

Aunt Xiang turned around and smiled at him: "Don't leave tonight, stay and eat!" ”

"Okay!" Da Lei sat on the rocking chair with Erlang's legs crossed, enjoying the pleasant cool breeze from the electric fan.

It's really comfortable......

"Ah, what a thunder in Langherach! Hela, Hena! The white clouds floated over Dadingzi Mountain, the golden sun shone on the sails, rocking the oars tightly, holding the helm steadily, winning with both hands, and the harvest year ......" The rich and beautiful song on the radio made Da Lei unconsciously hum along, he closed his eyes and hummed the tune.

"O Aranghena Henina Nare! Hena Ni Henina! People in the birch forest laughed, laughed and laughed at the red rhododendrons all over the mountain, and the people embarked on the road of happiness, and the people's country lasted for thousands of years! Aranghenahny ...... Multiply.. Zizi.. Hennina! Zizizi.... Multiply.... Sad! My concubine still knows that the country is dead, and the mountains and rivers are cut off! Boom...... Lang Jun is intentional but crying, and he never forgets to kill himself in the end! ”

The festive music was mixed with noise, and suddenly became gloomy and mournful, and the sharp and piercing sound made Da Lei stiff, he opened his eyes in horror, but saw Aunt Xiang's rotten maggot face staring at him and smiling, she suddenly opened her mouth, and there was no tongue in the flesh and blood.....

Da Lei opened his eyes and sat up suddenly!

The dazzling light made his eyes unable to adapt for a while, and after a long time, the burning pain disappeared, Da Lei rubbed his temples and looked around.

Endless desert.

It turned out to be a dream.

He's not dead yet.

Thinking of this, Da Lei hurriedly stretched out his hand and touched his face and legs, the rough skin felt the same as usual. Where are the traces of those bugs under the parasitic skin!

Was it all a hallucination last night?

Da Lei shook his head and smiled bitterly, he never believed in mirages, hallucinations, these things, he didn't expect to let himself catch up last night! Still scared himself into that virtue, Da Lei rubbed his head, he was now sore, and his nose was full of sand left over from last night.

"Little ....." Da Lei quickly closed his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth, and wanted to call Xiao Hai, but his throat was as painful as a crack, and he couldn't speak at all. Struggling to get up, although he is still angry about the private chocolate incident, but after all, he brought Xiaohai out, and now the life and death of this child is difficult to say, and he still feels guilty after all.

Da Lei shook the sand off his body and took two steps with difficulty. As the old Chinese saying goes: you don't die in a big disaster! There will be blessings! It seems that it was providence that allowed him to survive, and in this case, he cannot live up to this providence!

Now the priority is to find Xiaohai. Da Lei walked barefoot on the sand, his mouth was dry, his throat was about to smoke, he couldn't speak at all, and the hot sun made his skin hurt. Wiping his forehead, he felt that his whole body was almost evaporated, and even sweat was extravagant.

After walking for a while, Da Lei stopped and looked, there were barren deserts all around, and it should not be difficult to find a big living person. Besides, although the wind was strong last night, it didn't blow everyone away. To put it mildly, even if this fat man dies, his big lump can still see the corpse!

Strange, what about people?

The vultures hovering overhead were roaring in a hoarse voice, spinning in circles as if waiting for the moment when Da Lei fell.

Heh, Da Lei raised his head and sneered. Even God bless him, what is your fear of a winged brute?!

Da Lei glanced disdainfully at the sky, put on his hat and continued to move forward. But the vulture above the sky seemed to guess his slightly contemptuous eyes, and fluttered its wings to rush towards him, before Da Lei could react, the vulture's sharp hooked beak had already taken his hat in its mouth, pulled it a few times and threw it aside, it screamed sharply twice, circled and stayed on the dead branch not far away.

Da Lei licked his dry lips, not planning to pay attention to it and save some strength. But somehow, the vulture stared at him with an indescribable coldness in his eyes.

Da Lei picked up his hat and shook the sand on it, glanced at it and continued to walk forward.

The heat emitted by the sun baked the sand under his feet, and Da Lei walked barefoot on it with every step was tormented, and the coarse and hard sand grains made his feet hurt. He secretly comforted himself, this way, the pain would not make him unconscious and unconscious in this yellow sand.

As he walked, he stopped.

Ahead, on the dead trees corroded by the desert, stood the vulture, looking at him coldly.

He was lost.

Back to square one.

Da Lei walked over and looked at it fearlessly, but the vulture was motionless, and its dark brown eyes didn't blink. After a while, Da Lei felt a little strange, he pondered for a moment and reached out and touched the vulture.

Stiff and cold body.

It's dead.

How could it be so sudden? Clearly...... Obviously he was alive just now, why is he suddenly dead now! And it's been dead for a while!

After calming down for a while, Da Lei tore off a red cloth from his cuffs and tied it around the vulture's neck, the custom of his hometown, the meaning of the deceased to rest in peace.

Da Lei remembered that he had heard the old man in the courtyard say that it was rumored that there would be no vulture corpse in the desert, and that it would fly to the sun when it was dying, allowing the body to dissolve in a thousand rays of light.

If anyone sees its corpse, it will be a bad omen.

Scourge!

If it was before, Da Lei might still be afraid, but now, he is the one who escaped from hell, what else is there to fear? In other words, prepare for the worst, in case he still can't get out of this desert, die of thirst, starve, it will be within a week.

What is there to fear when a man is about to die?

He tore off a thin branch from the dead tree, held it in his hand and drew a straight line on the sand, and continued to walk, but after walking for a long time, he returned to the original point, to the beginning of the straight line.

But this time, the vulture was gone.

Only a dead tree was left standing alone.

Da Lei looked around, and suddenly, his eyes fell on the sand, the line he had drawn with a withered branch before.

He had been moving forward, but at some point the line changed direction and pointed to the other side, in the opposite direction to the sun.

Da Lei thought about it and decided to follow this line.

He turned around and just lifted his foot, but before he could take a step, he felt a force behind him nudge him gently.

He hurriedly turned his head, but there was nothing behind him.

Even the dead tree is gone.

It was the unspeakable chill that came to my heart again, not because of fear, but because of this chill that I was afraid!

No, no, no!! Da Lei closed his eyes and shook his head, he must have hallucinated because he didn't rest well, and the more he had to calm down at this time. He collected his emotions and continued to walk forward, but before he took two steps, his pupils dilated, and he was shocked by joy!

In front, a person can be seen faintly, although it is relatively vague, but Da Lei knows that it is Xiaohai! He shouted with all his strength: "Xiaohai!! ”

As soon as the words came out, he only felt a tearing pain in his throat, and he couldn't hold back a mouthful of bloody phlegm coughing out, Da Lei wiped his mouth, and he didn't have time to care about these and quickly ran towards the figure.

His physical strength was already very weak, and he ran very quickly, and he did not step on a steady step, stumbling and falling down the sandy slope.

"Bang dang!" With a bang, I don't know what hard object he bumped into, Da Lei only felt that his head was about to crack, and his eyes were full of gold stars. He covered his head in pain and cursed in a low voice, greeting the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of this hard thing in his heart. After relieving for a while, the pain gradually disappeared, Da Lei raised his head and chuckled in his heart...... In front of him was a white skeleton! His dark eye sockets stared straight at him.

I just greeted my ancestors...... Sin, sin...... He who does not know is not guilty.

It seems that the gravity was too strong when he rolled down, and he slammed into the skull cover, which was really shocking!

"Brother!"

There was a shout in the distance, this familiar voice made Da Lei come back to his senses, he covered his head and hurriedly got up, this time it was even more stupid...

Scattered all around are white bones! Tens of thousands of bones are out of sight!

From the topography, this is a concave sand pit, and it should be the rampant wind last night that exposed the white bones buried deep in the earth.

Xiao Hai waved at him excitedly, staggered over the bones, cried and smiled on his face, and hugged Da Lei: "Brother... I... I've seen you...! Da Lei hadn't recovered from the bones in front of him, and he was stunned there, letting Xiao Hai snot and tears 'ravage'. Xiao Hai vented for a while, and seemed to be almost released when his emotions were released, only to notice Da Lei's expression approaching petrification. He wiped his face and whispered, "Brother, are you okay?" ”

Da Lei blinked and shook his head: "... It's okay, but Xiaohai, this... What's going on? ”

Xiao Hai returned to his crying and mourning look: "I don't know either!" As soon as I woke up the next day, I was already here! He grabbed his hair and recalled: "Last night the strong wind overturned the tent, I was shivering with cold, I wanted to make you unable to speak, I just felt that those insects were poured into my stomach along the wind, I thought I would definitely die!" Outcome... As a result...", his tone began to tremble: "I suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, and when I opened my eyes, it was snowing!" I thought I had to go to see Hades. But in the heavy snow, I could faintly see the figure of a woman, wearing her hair and white clothes, and beckoning to me. I was like, "Oh no! Seeing that the king of Hades also has to be a bull head and a horse to pick me up, why did he send a woman? It's supposed to be a dream! And somehow, the ghost sent me to follow me, but she was not far away, and I couldn't get there! Along the way, I felt more and more sleepy, and I couldn't lift my eyelids, but my feet didn't obey the call and kept walking. After that, my eyes went black, I didn't know anything, and I woke up... Wake up and you're already here! ”

After Xiao Hai finished speaking, his face turned pale, as if he had not yet been freed from the strange incident last night. Da Lei patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "It must be that our nerves are too nervous to cause hallucinations!" Look, aren't all those disgusting bugs from last night gone! Besides, now your face is fine, and I am standing here dignifiedly, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future! ”

Xiao Hai waved his hand: "Of course you said it's okay, it's not what you experienced!" I have palpitations right now......"

Before he could finish speaking, Da Lei interrupted angrily: "Look at your unproductive appearance!" I say it's an illusion, it's an illusion! Who said Lao Tzu didn't experience it?! I still had my hair wrapped around me last night! But this morning, ......" said, he stretched out his leg to prove it to Xiaohai, but as soon as he lifted his leg, he was stunned, and on his leg, under the sun, two pale red strangulation marks could be seen very indistinctly!!

Da Lei suddenly stood there motionless like a puppet, looking at the marks on his legs, he was speechless in a daze. The heart is pounding... How... How so! Could it be that everything was true last night?!

"Huh? What the? After asking for a long time, Xiaohai saw that Da Lei didn't speak, and thought that he was thinking of countermeasures, so he closed his mouth knowingly.

The two people with their own hearts walked one after the other, silent with each other. The bones under their feet stepped on it and "gurgled", although I don't know why there were so many bones and why they appeared here, but in the end they were all buried in this desert, buried in the ground under their feet... The scorching heat of the sun made people dizzy, and they barely managed to maintain their physical strength and moved in a direction that was headless. Just like Da Lei said, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future.

Xiao Hai couldn't help but have a sour nose when he looked at Da Lei's tall and thin back, he touched the chocolate in his pocket, and there was one left. He thought in his heart that these days, whether they drank blood or urine, they could hold on as long as they could. Since he was a child, his brother has never lied to him, since his brother said that he can survive, then he will definitely survive!

"Brother, the matter of hiding chocolates...... Do you still blame me? ”

Hearing Xiao Hai ask like this, Da Lei suddenly stopped and said, "The eldest brother is the father." And there was no more to it.

The two were silent for a long time, then he turned around and said faintly: "Xiaohai, when you're hungry, eat me." ”

Looking down at it from a height of thousands of meters, this dense forest white bones were piled up into a giant hole! A vulture with a red ribbon roared hoarsely and flew by, its dark eyes staring coldly at the two men who were at the cheekbones of the skeleton.
