Chapter 13: The Seven Stars of the Sirius (Part I)
The weather in the mountains is the face of the three flowers, it is said to change, ten minutes ago it was still pouring rain, ten minutes later, now it is a sunny day, the sunlight penetrates the gaps in the leaves and sprinkles down, a piece of gold, very beautiful.
The equipment and clothing on our bodies were stained with water, and for some reason, they sank as if they were filled with lead, and we felt so tired when we moved.
Those tree flukes may be because of the sunlight coming out, one by one they have gone down, leaving dense small round holes on the ground, and people with dense phobia will definitely vomit on the spot, but fortunately, Fang Kong and I are not patients with dense phobia, as for Xiao Wu, I see that he is sitting on the branch at the moment, looking at something calmly, but when my eyes have not had time to shift from him to other places, a sour smell fell from the sky, followed by Xiaodong's scream like killing pigs, The army green that fell to the ground in response to the sound lay motionless on the ground.
I hurriedly touched the back of my head, and only after confirming that there was no vomit did I put my mind at ease, and looked up at Xiao Wu, who was looking at Xiao Dong who was lying on his stomach at the moment, and shook his head helplessly, and did not show a very anxious and worried look.
We came down from the top one by one along the trunk, and I was the first to help Xiaodong, who was pale at the moment, and inadvertently glanced at the small round holes all over the ground, and wow, the sour smell hit again.
"Boy, you're exaggerating." I looked at him incredulously as I handed over the tissue.
Xiaodong looked up at me in pain, and wanted to say something, probably because it was too uncomfortable. As a result, he didn't say anything, but Xiao Wu, who finally jumped down from the tree, walked over and said, "He is dizzy." Rest for a while and you'll be fine. ”
I let out an "oh" and looked at his little pale face. Suddenly I felt that this child was not easy, took out some food from the backpack and handed it to him, and then helped him to sit down to the side, handed over a bottle of water, he looked at me very vigilantly, but seeing that I kept smiling, the vigilance gradually weakened, and finally disappeared from his eyes.
After last night's tree fluke attack, our camp was in shambles. Fang Kong and Xiao Wu were busy, and I chose to stay with Xiao Dong because I didn't know what to do, so that nothing would happen to this kid later.
I saw that he coughed from time to time, and his face improved slightly, so I handed him some food in my backpack, "Toss all night, let's be hungry, eat something first." ”
Xiaodong took the compressed biscuit and said thank you, then put the things aside. He said that he would eat later, and that he would have to get in touch with the team members in front of him first.
Fang Kong came out of the tent and saw us sitting here, walking over with a depressed face. Squatting in front of the two of us, he glanced at Xiaodong and raised his chin at me. Meaning, this little thing is fine.
I nodded at him and made eye contact, "It's fine." This kid has a hard body. ”
Xiao Wu also came out of another tent, carrying a large handful of old black BP machine-like things in his hand. Walked up to us, threw things in front of us, and asked, "Xiaodong, are you okay?" ”
Xiaodong nodded reluctantly and said, "Senior, I'm fine, they're all right."
I saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, and his toes also understood what he wanted to ask, Fang Kong and I looked at Xiao Wu in unison, but Xiao Wu said very calmly: "Here is all the information they had before they died, sort it out, and prepare the funeral money." ”
Xiao Dong's face sank, his eyes were red, he didn't say anything, just picked up the instruments that Xiao Wu threw over, and carefully put them into his backpack.
None of us spoke, especially me, and the feeling in my heart that I couldn't express was very heavy, and I wanted to cry and couldn't cry, but I couldn't be indifferent.
At this moment when we didn't speak, Xiao Wu's mobile phone suddenly rang, there was a mobile phone signal in this place, it was a miracle, while he answered the phone, I also looked at my mobile phone, not to mention, the signal is really there, but it is very weak, only one grid.
I saw that Xiao Wu only said one word "um" after answering the phone, hung up the phone, and then said to us: "The camp is left alone for the time being, take all our equipment, especially the battery, and let's go." ”
I looked around, and my heart said what other equipment I could bring, except for the one I was carrying, all the rest had been ruined by those tree flukes, and even if it could still be used, I was too lazy to touch it, it was disgusting.
The four people checked it, and except for a pack of high-capacity batteries, the rest were all scrapped.
We dug a pit and buried the bones of those two dozen people, the hesitation scene was too miserable, the bones were scattered everywhere, and we couldn't tell who was with whom, so we could only dig a big pit and bury them together, according to Xiaodong, these people have been living and training together since ten years ago, and now they are buried together, which should also be a good choice.
I tied a tombstone with a tree branch and placed it symbolically there, and the four of us stood silently for a while, and while the sun was still there, we decided to hurry up.
Walking up the mountain road, everyone was silent along the way, Fang Kong was carrying a heavy instrument, to be honest, I don't know what the instrument is, I just think it's very awesome, his equipment is wrapped in me, and Xiaodong still looks sick and crooked, I can only act as a coolie again, and carry his backpack on my back.
Because there was only one road here, we didn't worry about going wrong, and at the bend ahead, I could already see some familiar black shadows, that shape, that feeling, I would never mistake it in my life.
"Check it out." Xiao Wu greeted and ran over first.
Fang Kong followed like a little follower, I just wanted to speed up, but when I turned around, I saw Xiao Dong, whose face and lips were pale behind me, stood up and sighed, "Otherwise, I'll carry you." ”
Xiaodong looked stunned, shook his head apologetically, and a smile on the corner of his mouth revealed two shallow dimples, "Thanks, I'll just rest for a while." ”
Actually, that's what I said, I myself have back pain, where do I still have the strength to carry him, listening to him say this, I was also relieved, and stepped forward to help him try to speed up the pace to catch up with Xiao Wu and Fang Kong, but the heart was more than enough and the strength was insufficient, and when I caught up with them, three of the seven coffins on the mountain road had been opened by them.
I asked Xiaodong to sit alone on the side to rest for a while, he nodded at me weakly, walked to the side of the road alone, sat down slowly with a big tree, and watched him collapse, I suddenly felt a little strange, no matter how serious the dizziness is, it will not be so long before it has eased up, this dizziness reaction is also exaggerated.
While walking towards Xiao Wu and them, he looked back at Xiao Dong from time to time, he was sitting alone under the big tree with his eyes closed, looking very tired.
I looked back at the coffin that Fang Kong and Xiao Wu were about to open, and Fang Kong saw that I was coming, threw over a sapper shovel, and said, "Help." ”
"What are you doing?" I picked up the sapper shovel and looked at the black coffin suspiciously.
Xiao Wu concentrated on what he was looking for on the edge of the coffin, and after hearing my words, he stopped what he was doing, straightened up to look at me, and said, "Look for the code." ”
"Oh." I casually agreed, and began to pretend to look for the edge of the coffin, to be honest, I didn't know what this code looked like, but I didn't bother to ask, thinking to myself, anyway, there are usually no words and numbers on this coffin, as long as I can see these things appear, it is almost a code.
