I was sitting in the desert at the moment, the fat man carried me all the way, a little panting, but he was still holding a gun in one hand, and when he saw the surnamed Zhang stop, he said to me: "Innocent comrade, don't make a mistake at the critical moment." ”

The surname Zhang frowned, ignoring the fat man, and looked at me directly, but strangely, from her eyes, I did not see disgust and hostility.

Although things have come to this point, but thinking about it all the way, although the surname Zhang is booming, we can also be regarded as sharing hardships along the way, and this surnamed Zhang has not done anything to me and the fat man, I thought about it, and said to the fat man: "I know you are worried, but between us, it is not a deep hatred, why do you need to do so much." I don't think it's as good as this, let's find the four eyes first, they converge, integrate the equipment, and then it's not too late to make a decision. ”

After I finished speaking, the fat man was angry enough, pointed at my nose and scolded: "You are fucking dazzled by beauty, is it important for women or life, connect with the four eyes, and when the time comes, it is not certain who will clean up whom!" ”

Once connected, there are four people on the other side, and the four eyes also have weapons in their equipment, when the time comes, I and the fat man may not be able to bargain, I understand the fat man's concerns, but I do this, not what the fat man said is obsessed with any beauty, although I have a good impression of the surname Zhang, but not to the extent of dying, if she is a ruthless woman like A-Ning, I will not stop it, but this person is a righteous appearance, as soon as I think of throwing them in the desert, I feel that I am killing people.

There have been too many changes in the past few years, and I have repeatedly told myself to be harder, but at this moment, I am indecisive, and the fat man is really angry.

I looked at the surnamed Zhang again and said, "Dr. Zhang, we don't have a blood feud, and I'm sure you'll agree with my approach." ”

The surnamed Zhang pursed his lips, nodded and said, "After the convergence, I will share your return equipment, and if I say it, I will make a promise." ”

"Good!" Then, I got up from the ground, looked at the fat man who was still angry, and said, "Let's go." He gave me one look, put his gear on his back and left, ignoring me.

I smiled bitterly, knowing that I was a little muddy, and the fat man's kindness was almost regarded by me as a donkey's liver and lungs, and I remembered the misunderstanding in Beijing, and I felt that in the past year, I was even more muddy, and I was really sorry for him.

I followed the fat man's ass with my head down all the way, thinking about it, thinking about the scenes of birth and death in the past few years, and I felt quite uncomfortable.

Maybe it's because the thing behind me is sucking blood, I didn't long go and I was panting, my feet were trembling, the sun in the sky was very spicy, bright and dazzling, we didn't have sunglasses in this equipment, the four of us walked in the desert under the dazzling sun, I didn't have long in the sun, my eyes were tearful, the sequelae of snow blindness, and I was photophobic, let alone such a big sun.

I had to cover my eyes with my hands and squint through my fingers to see the way.

At that time, Dr. Zhang suddenly said, "This is the course of the Peacock River. "I squinted and saw that on the right, there was a clear riverbed one day, and gravel and mud could still be faintly seen on it.

The Peacock River flows through the Western Regions, and has changed its course several times in the past thousand years, and the dry riverbed we see in front of us should be one of the veins of the ancient Peacock River. Dr. Zhang took out the compass that had returned to normal, looked at the sun in the sky again, measured it for a while, and changed his course: "Let's go up along this river, we can enter the hinterland of the Taklamakan River, if nothing else, Lao Sun and they should also follow this road, let's hurry up, we should be able to catch up with them." ”

That's when I learned that the middle-aged man's surname was Sun.

Then, a group of four of us, led by Dr. Zhang, began to walk up the dry riverbed, and after four hours of continuous walking, my legs trembled and I fell into the sand.

Seeing the situation, the surnamed Zhang took a few breaths and said, "Take a break." With that, he took out the water from the equipment bag and handed it to me, I took a sip and handed it to the fat man, he looked at me with a tense face for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "I'm unlucky to be fat." Then he took the kettle and took a sip, and the gas was gone.

I looked at the few gray hairs on the fat man's sideburns, and I felt more and more like a bastard, where to find this kind of year-old handover? For a long time, I have always been easy to ignore the age of the fat man, firstly, because he is not old, and secondly, he has never been serious, close to fifty years old, when he sees the big girl, he is fascinated, and he is full of rough mouths when he sees the size of the person, until that time in Beijing, I noticed that the fat man suddenly had a few white hairs on his head, which reflected that the dead fat man was not young.

As a result, now, I have to be tired of running around with me. Originally, he was fighting alone, in the words of the industry, it was called 'Sanye', which was talking about a tomb robber with some ability, a lonely tomb robber who ate alone, but after knowing me, he was involved in the pile of things of Lao Jiumen.

This time, he almost killed him in a prison cell, and he handed over a brother like me, which is really unlucky. The more I thought about it, the more I felt like a bastard, and finally my heart was crossed, patted the fat man's shoulder, and said, "The joint has taken the equipment, let's go back." ”

The fat man was stunned and said, "What? ”

I said: "Go back, you go back to Beijing, I'll go back to Hangzhou, first solve this thing on my back, save the little brother, let's slow down, anyway, he has been guarding for a year, and it's not bad for a few months." ”

The fat man opened his mouth wide, then reacted and said, "What about 'it'?" ”

I also figured it out, the third uncle died because of 'it', Xie Lian died because of 'it', for the secret of the Zhang family, for the things behind the bronze door, 'it' has plagued two whole generations, if 'it' is a person, I really want to peel it and cramp, but unfortunately, 'it' is likely not just a person, but a social law, as passerby A said, 'it' is holding in its hand is the law of this society.

No matter how great my ability is, how can I put 'it'?

What exactly 'it' wants to do has nothing to do with me, my curiosity has long been wiped out, and years of experience have taught me that behind every secret, there is a price to pay for blood.

In that case, let those damn secrets get out of here.

I said to the fat man, "Let it fuck off." The fat man paused, as if he wanted to say something, but it was probably because of the reappearance of Dr. Zhang and the others, so he held back his words.

The conversation between me and the fat man was clueless, and they couldn't understand it, but the surnamed Zhang obviously understood that I had given up, so he nodded and said to me, "What I promised will definitely be done." ”

I nodded at her, and after a moment of rest, I got up and beckoned to continue on my way.

Then, after we had been walking for half an hour, the German beauty suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Look." In the center of the riverbed, there was a word made of gravel, which was a Sun character.

A smile appeared on the corner of Dr. Zhang's mouth, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "It's the mark left by Lao Sun, it seems that the two of them are safe all the way." "At this time, the river has come to an end, and the remaining half is buried in the desert, and it is impossible to judge the route, so we follow the arrow signs left by Lao Sun, all the way to the west, deep into the hinterland of Taklamakan, according to our plan, we should be able to reach the range of Yabuda in two more days.

Seeing that we were only one step away from success, but we had to give up halfway, the fat man and I felt uncomfortable.

It was about six o'clock, and we were resting at the end of the riverbed, and I was lying on my side, unable to sleep until the early hours of the morning, and I could feel the thing on my back, it was beating like a heart, and the thought of its disgusting appearance made me furious, not to mention that it was growing on me at the moment.

After tumbling in the middle of the night, I don't think it will work like this, how can I cope with tomorrow's trip without sleeping?

In this way, I was obsessively self-hypnotized, and finally counted the sheep, and I really fell asleep after counting.

When I woke up, I found that the fat man was taking off my clothes, he was hairy and angry, and I scolded: "Fuck, dead fatty, even if we have a deep love, I will not give in, you stop." ”

The fat man snorted and said, "Damn, don't talk about the calf, the thing on your back seems to be gone." ”

I was a spirit, quickly backhanded to touch, but I couldn't touch, at this time the fat man had already stripped my clothes, and then, I didn't open my mouth for a long time, I felt wrong, lying on the sand, cautiously asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The fat man frowned and said, "The thing is gone, but you have a black scar on your back, like a ...... Like a ...... Heart. ”

I suddenly felt a chill in my heart, is the legend about 'pulling' true? Does this thing really grow into a person's body? Wouldn't I be ...... now?

No, this thing is the evil secret technique of ancient Bashu, how can it appear in the scope of the ancient Western Regions?

This speculation was too terrible, and I was afraid that the fat man would be worried, so I didn't say it, and the fat man then asked, "Does it hurt?" "I felt it, the throbbing feeling was gone, the whole body seemed to return to normal, especially the dizziness and weakness of anemia was gone.

Finally, I put on my clothes, suppressed the anxiety in my heart, thought about it, and said, "Fatty, this thing is going to the hospital now, I'm afraid it won't be solved, I don't think it's as good as ......"

The fat man said at one point, "You mean to keep going?" ”

I nodded and said, "It's two days away, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, it's a pity to give up now." ”

The fat man was slightly silent, and then said, "What is this thing, will it be life-threatening?" "Not only is life in danger, if that folklore is true, I'm afraid that there is a thousand-year-old zongzi living in my body, I lied and said: "I don't feel anything now, but my blood is the second brother, this thing disappeared suddenly, it is estimated that it was poisoned by my blood, and now it has a scar, anyway, I have many scars on my body, and I don't care about this one." ”

As soon as the fat man heard this, he finally let go of my heart, and then kicked me, and said: "Damn, I knew that you and the little brother were tired, I knew that you had this physique, and the fat man was still worried about a fart, tsk, no, the fat man has to save his image." ”
