Chapter 382: Warning
He used a machete to split the dense branches and leaves, hid the two panniers at the edge of the inaccessible dense forest, untied the ropes of the old cow, patted the cow's buttocks, and let the old cow retire in the tropical rainforest with abundant water and grass by himself.
The boy fell to his knees and kowtowed to the old cow that was slowly pacing, perhaps thinking that he was just going on the road again, and disappeared into the bushes with a flick of his tail.
Buck turned to walk towards the road, and the boy jumped, although he was still a little limping, but he rushed to take Buck's things and hang them on himself, showing that he was a child laborer.
Buck doesn't stop either, everyone has their own thoughts or sense of worth, if he deprives this teenager of his focus, this teenager probably doesn't know what the meaning of his life is.
Dressed in a dirty and shabby camouflage uniform, jeans and tropical hiking boots are so dirty that you can't see the prototype, messy stubble and slightly curly hair are greasy, Buck is as inconspicuous as a migrant worker, not to mention the teenager, the clothes are all ragged, and there is a little difficulty with both hands on the head and the things hanging on the back, this is the ethnic customs here, the back basket is hung on the head, and the two of them slowly walk along the road into the town.
The world-famous town of Daliqi, the legendary source of the entire Golden Triangle poison*! Across the river from the Thai border, you don't need any visas to travel around, but when you leave the town, you must undergo strict inspections.
Therefore, the armed men standing on the side of the road did not care about the two people who came over like mountain people, but they rolled to the side of the road, probably because their appearance was unsightly, which affected the tourists' perception of this place.
That's right, this is the most prosperous place in the entire Golden Triangle, with large shopping malls, hotels, and casinos, all of which are embedded in the rainforest like a pearl, but it is such a place where the general's children have not taken care of it, so that characters such as Mang Kang and Kuang Wei have created the most profitable place at the junction of the three countries where the two rivers meet.
Mediocre qualifications can be seen.
Of course, Buck doesn't think about this, he just came to rub the means of transportation, the reason why he chose to come in from the west of the city, in addition to avoiding the close surveillance of the small triangle area, but also because the only border bridge within a radius of hundreds of kilometers is here, as long as he can snatch a car, can't he escape into Thailand with a pannier?
But Barker, who has experienced the previous operation survey, is glad that his meticulous survey principles are compared to the previous situation of random traffic on the bridge, and now the bridge is full of barricades!
Unless it is an armored vehicle, an ordinary vehicle will not be able to cross this bridge, which is already equipped with heavy machine guns and rocket launchers!
Buck, who was sitting on the eaves of the Burmese side of the bridge, looked at the surroundings depressedly and smoked, and the boy squatted next to him and hugged Buck's backpack, his face was a little redder than Buck's, his eyes were wide open, and he watched the people come and go with some caution, indeed like a little beast that had just come out of the mountain.
Picking up the broken newspapers on the ground, Buck pretended to roll tobacco, and found some English in the middle of the unintelligible tadpole text, and the golden triangle shì was in chaos, and all the forces were taking the opportunity to fight for territory...... By the time Buck picked up another Chinese-language newspaper, Mangkang had already been announced by Laos to be extradited to China......
Without thinking about the pannier or the boy, Buck crossed the river with ease.
But you can't throw away such a good trophy, can you?
Buck suddenly saw the mobile phone shop on the side of the road, and the tourist who was shouting on the phone, pointed to the boy, and got up and crossed the street to buy a mobile phone to buy a calling card, and the cheapest model was picked up and dialed the agreed number.
Even in a noisy and chaotic downtown street, Wu Mengxi's voice was still very penetrating, and he wanted to rush through the microphone and stretch out his hand to hug: "Thank God! Where are you!"
Buck thought she was acting: "Where are you?"
Wu Mengxi really began to sob: "It's where you left last, I don't want to go anywhere, I just think about you......"
Buck didn't speak, and listened to the chatter of a woman like a broken embankment, and then Wu Mengxi woke up: "I, that's not what I mean, I won't keep pestering you, as long as you're safe, I don't know your news, I won't keep asking you, it's just that the daily dollar suddenly broke off, and I just, ah, I don't mean that either......"
Buck laughed instead: "Okay, I know what you mean, you're in northern Thailand?"
Wu Mengxi began to grab a lot of tissues to wipe his face: "Yes, how is your situation? I saw that the TV and newspapers were all in a mess, and many people died!"
Buck didn't inquire about the news on the phone: "In this way, you go and rent a car, there is a park about four or five kilometers out of the city along the southwest highway, don't stop, just look at the condition of the park, there are not many people, there are no military police, along the way, observe the situation of the military police on the road, whether there is a strengthened investigation, but be careful not to expose yourself, and then go back to the city to change hotels and wait for my news." ”
Wu Mengxi began to cry happily again, but she didn't let the other end of the phone hear it, if she used to act as much as possible to express her admiration for men, now she is carefully trying to hide this kind of love, for fear that she will not be able to catch or scare away the other party if she is too enthusiastic, alas, she is also too skilled to be familiar with this kind of love game between men and women: "Okay! I'll do it right away, and remember to change the phone card." ”
Buck praised him, kissed goodbye without any affection, hung up the phone, made a look at the boy, got up and blended into the crowd, and called the short boy like Hanako to hurry up.
The town is very prosperous, and both sides across the river are very lively, in terms of people's livelihood economy is much stronger than the pure casino hotel operation on the small triangle, there are three or four kilometers of main roads along the river, Buck does not have to walk to see, because the cameras on the street once again discourage him, and finally took the teenager to hide in a back alley, leaning against the wall to nap.
From time to time, heavily armed military and police vehicles passed by on the street outside the alley, Buck remained motionless, letting the time pass, the light and shadow on the wall slowly changed, and the boy began to feel a little nervous, and he also calmed down, learning from Buck's appearance and closing his eyes.
It was only in the afternoon that the sky sounded the distinctive sound of rotors whipping the air, and Buck squinted and paced out of the alley, looking up like most people, as the helicopter swept by arrogantly at an altitude of two hundred meters, disappearing to the east end of town.
Buck keenly realized that this was not the one he had piloted, although the model was the same, the engine sound was a little different, and he sat back down with some thought.
In the middle, he took out the kyat baht and gave it to the boy and asked him to buy food, and the guy who was more earthy than Buck came back with several bags of white rice!
As the most important rice-producing area in the world, this unlucky child who has lived in the mountains and forests for a long time has never eaten much rice, thinking that this is the best food, so that the crying and laughing Buck still takes it to the roadside stall to order a few meals to squat and eat.
Once again, when Buck's favorite twilight is approaching, most people will be keen on dinner, and even the camera is hesitating between day and night mode to automatically turn on the infrared brightening period, Buck finally crosses the long street, near the east end of the town, and sure enough, he finds that the helicopter he once piloted is parked in the open space agreed with the big sister.
This helicopter that he tacitly let him use in order to facilitate his movement is still so kind to him?
Kuang Wei had warned Buck a long time ago.
