A hunting adventure [unlimited]

Yu Zhen squatted in the shade under the eaves, tore off a piece of hard jerky, and put it in his mouth with disgust.

Mi Mosha on the left imitated him and squatted, took a spoon and used the handle to pry open the can, dug out the fish inside, and ate it with oily mouth.

"Poor thing, you haven't eaten delicious food, have you?" Yu Zhen sympathized.

Mi Mosha squinted at him, and said mockingly: "You have eaten delicious food, but now you can only eat bacon like cowhide here, it's even more pitiful."

"You're right." Yu Zhen sighed, losing her appetite.

It had been 35 days since they last entered the signal station.

35 days is a cycle, and every 35 days, a convoy will pass by here. The black car like a beetle carries the supplies, medicines and gasoline collected from the ruined town, and drives to the depths of the desert amidst the dust and tail smoke. .

As an outsider who fell from the sky, Yu Zhen, from the initial ignorance and bewilderment to the present... is still at a loss; he lives in a desert isolated from the world with a 9-year-old child, and loses all sources of information and opportunities to understand the world.

Mi Mosha was born in this wasteland. She had heard her parents talk about how people lived and multiplied before the disaster struck, but she had never seen a city, and could not imagine mountains and rivers; her vocabulary and expressive ability were quite limited, It is almost impossible to find out from her what happened in this world and why it became what it is today.

However, she still told Yu Zhen some necessary common sense and effective information to survive in the desert.

For example, the massive convoy came from the base camp of the Great Falcon in the hinterland of the desert."Fish that slipped through the net" like them living in seclusion must not be discovered by that group of people, otherwise they will be taken away as slaves.

"Slave?" At that time, Yu Zhen's head was dizzy, and he always felt that he hadn't heard this word for many years.

"Yes!" Mi Mosha nodded resolutely, "The old freak likes collecting beautiful slaves the most, so my father decided to send me away the moment I was born!"

Yu Zhen: "...it seems very evil."

The cabin where he and Mi Mosha temporarily lived was built by Mi Mosha's father to protect the secrets of his wife and daughter.

According to the little girl, her father used to be the chief of logistics staff of the "old freak"; on the night her mother gave birth, her father lied to the outside world that the pregnant woman had dystocia and killed two people, and then bribed the guards and sent her and her mother to the This is a simple but safe residence near the water source.

My father came to see my mother at the same time as the convoy passing by, once a month, and at the same time brought food, clothes and medicines that I had secretly accumulated, and occasionally one or two small toys.

This kind of life continued until Mi Mosha was 6 years old——

When she was 6 years old, her mother was sick, hot all over, unconscious, lying on the bed muttering.She dug out all the pills and fed them to her mother, but she still failed to save her mother's life.

When my father finally arrived half a month later, my mother's body was dehydrated and dry.

After my father returned to the base camp that time, he never came back.

Mi Mosa ate all the dry food in the house and was so hungry that she caught a lizard with a simple trap, roasted it and swallowed it, and counted the time when the convoy passed by; so she sneaked away 5 kilometers away The convoy camp—every time the convoy passes by before sunset, they will stop nearby, set up tents to rest for the night, and set off back to the Falcon Base Camp in the early morning of the next day.

Taking advantage of the night, the bonfire, and the loud and piercing music, she hid at the bottom of the pursuit vehicle. After everyone fell asleep, she got into the vehicle and stole jerky, chocolate and compressed biscuits, as well as antibiotics and antipyretics.

It was her first time stealing, and it went well, and as she was leaving she heard the watchman mention her father's name.

She crouched behind the tent and carefully raised her ears.

The two men in the convoy said that her father trespassed and wounded the guards guarding the signal station, so he was thrown into prison by the judges and sentenced to death for traitors, and his body was broken into many pieces.

Mi Mosa still doesn't quite understand what "the body is broken into many pieces", but she feels sad and sad, and she knows that she will never have a father again.

She covered her mouth without crying, and returned safely to the hut with her bulging bag on her back.

After that, she lived alone for two years, until she met Yu Zhen who fell from the sky not long ago; she kindly took in the stranger who smashed her roof, and asked him to work hard to repay his life-saving grace.

——What is the so-called Falcon Base Camp? Yu Zhen has not figured it out so far, but judges, slaves, traitors, capital punishment... and such words, he knows that it is a place far away from civilization and must not be approached.

He worked for Mi Mosha, helped her repair part of her father's inheritance, accompanied her to steal things, and the harvest was divided equally between the two.

With Yu Zhen's help, Mi Mosha stole canned fruit and a hand-drawn topographic map of the base camp.They were pleasantly surprised to find that there was a signal station buried by wind and sand in the northwest of the base camp, but it was a pity that it was planted with a falcon flag and was guarded day and night.

Mi Mosha's father died for this, which shows that this signal station has practical uses.

A month ago, he and Mi Mosha joined the convoy together, successfully sneaked into the underground signal station after all kinds of hardships, and sent the first distress message.

They weren't sure if there were any living people in the world beyond the desert, but they couldn't do nothing.

Since it is impossible to stay around the signal station, it is impossible to know whether a reply or contact from the outside world has been received after the distress message is sent.

Yu Zhen decided to go to the signal station again with this convoy.

This is incomparable to stealing things. The thrilling experience of narrow escape last time made him never want Mi Mosha to participate in such a dangerous thing again.

—But she is indeed a capable little helper.

Yu Zhen was very confused.

After gnawing the jerky to barely satisfy his hunger, Yu Zhen lingeringly entered the room and poured half a pot of water to wash his face. He saw his own face reflected in the basin, thin and bloodless, and his face was as white as a ghost.

"I've been in the desert for months, how come I haven't gotten as dark as you?" he muttered.

Mi Mosha's wheat-colored cheeks were sunburnt and her lips were chapped. Hearing this, she jumped up and hit him, opened her mouth and yelled, "You are so annoying!"

Yu Zhen was not the type to let others beat and scold her, even if he teased her first; after being slapped firmly by Mi Mosha's little hand, he immediately splashed water on her face and head.Seeing the little girl whose height was only as high as his chest kept shaking her head and shaking her head, like a kitten in the rain, it was very interesting, and he couldn't help but immerse himself in the joy of bullying children.

"Don't hit me, don't hit me." He half warned and half begged for forgiveness, his hands still kept splashing water on people.

Enraged, Mi Mosha hugged his arm and bit it——

"Wow!!!"

Yu Zhen screamed in pain, leaving a bloody tooth mark on her arm.

He was bitten again.

"You asked for it!" Mi Mosha wiped her mouth, slapped the table, raised her head and widened her eyes and said, "I warn you! This is my home, and you are taken in by me! You have to respect me! Listen to me! Do you understand?"

Yu Zhen: "...Understood."

It's so fierce.

Mi Mosha wiped the wet hair on her forehead, and added broodingly, "You don't look like an adult at all! Shut up if you can't speak!"

"Oh." Yu Zhen thought for a while, it seems that he has no fate with children in this life.

As a result of asking for trouble, he immersed his arm in water to clean the wound, and the corner of his mouth twitched in pain; there was no need to waste medicine for such a small injury, he simply wrapped gauze around it to prevent sand and dust from entering, then quickly changed his coat, and brought all his Gear up and go out.

Mi Mosha yelled at his back as he walked away: "Remember to come back and pick me up!"

Yu Zhen didn't look back, and waved her arm wrapped in white gauze to show that she heard.

***

It is not far from 5 kilometers, but here is the endless desert, and it is very easy to lose your sense of direction. If you have never walked the correct route, you may never find your destination if you just move forward by groping.

Yu Zhen walked between the scorching sun and hot sand and rocks. He climbed over the sand dunes, climbed up the high cliffs piled up by the Gobi rock formations, and walked along the traces of the wheels.

Halfway through the journey, there was a misty cloud of dust in the distance.

The gray sand was filled with black smoke, and as the distance shortened, several pursuit vehicles the size of sesame seeds gradually showed sharp and flamboyant metal outlines.

Yu Zhen immediately got down on the ground, hid herself behind the rugged rock formation, and waited for the convoy to pass by.

After about a few minutes, loud music from loudspeakers came from the road below, and was smashed to pieces by the discarded wine bottles hitting the stone wall!

Taking advantage of his visual advantage from a high place, he quietly poked his head out to observe——

Sure enough, it was the convoy that passed by before.

The roof and doors of each car are painted with a majestic and proud falcon in gold spray paint, and the flag of the same totem is flying in the air.

——The group of people turned back?What are they going to do?

As the convoy whizzed by, Yu Zhen stood up, stepped on a rock, and looked at the route swept by the dust.

— Instead of turning back along the road, they turned left.

left?On the left is... oops!

Yu Zhen rolled up a layer of wind and sand slipperily and ran down the rocky peak, galloping the way he came here!

——That's the direction of the wooden house, they are going to find water!

***

Mi Mosa closed the air leaking wooden door and the light-blocking plastic curtain. She picked up the manual and the oily screwdriver that Yu Zhen had put down, intending to learn how to repair the damaged machine.

But after reading it for a long time, she found that she knew very few words.

"—Boom!"

The sudden and impatient knock on the door startled her whole body.

Mi Mosha turned her head in amazement, towards the slightly fluttering door curtain, when the knock on the door sounded again——

"Bang bang bang!"

Is it Yu Zhen?

He doesn't seem to knock on the door like this...

However, no one else knew that she lived here.

Mi Mosa put down the screwdriver, her palms were sticky and oily, she wiped her hands on her coat, and walked to the door hesitantly.

"Bang!"

The fragile wooden door was roughly kicked open!The obstructing door curtain was ripped off by a big hand!

She was so frightened that she couldn't move, she just froze in place.

The light outside the house shone in sparsely, and Mi Mosha took advantage of this to see the strange faces in the backlight. They were carrying weapons that she could not name, and their tall figures blocked most of the sunlight. Embroidered with a falcon totem.

She screamed and tried to escape with trembling legs, but was lifted up by the collar——

"Like a mole."

They measured her weight and described.

***

Yu Zhen came late, he couldn't get close to the wooden house, he could only lie on the slope of the sand dune, watching everything that was happening there.

A gray pipe was put into the spring water, and the other end was connected to the carriage. Amidst the trembling roar, the water level of the clear spring decreased sharply, and a large amount of fresh water was filled into the insatiable cylindrical water reservoir.

The group of people celebrated loudly, and many wine bottles were dropped on the ground.

Their armbands have shaved cyan scalps, and all the vehicles behind them are planted with black flags. The totem is a majestic falcon.

Yu Zhen didn't see Mi Mosha, but his eyes flashed scenes of her struggling to escape but being caught, tied hands and feet and locked in the carriage; How painful it must be.

His hands dug into the sand, his fingers tightened, but he couldn't grab anything.

One by one wine bottles smashed on the roof and walls, the liquor was ignited by the fire, and surrounded the wooden house like a fiery red coat.

After the convoy pumped out the water, they left behind a mess and disaster.

The raging fire engulfed the hut and dead trees, and the burned logs and house walls were broken and peeled off, and black smoke rose into the sky.

Yu Zhen stood in front of the ruins for a long time, and left in a hurry when night fell.

The author has something to say:

I'm sorry, Ben Xianyu was suddenly arrested last month and sent to work in a very devilish place, and I haven't recovered from it...

The work and rest time has not yet stabilized. I may have worked a lot of overtime in the past two months. I am very sorry QAQ...

I won't cheat!
