Legend of Ishi

The car that picked them up waited at the door before dawn, and before Aunt Wangmu called the room to wake up, the upstairs door opened, and the man named Xiao Ma stuck his head out of the corridor, grinning Greeting: "Auntie, tell the driver brother to wait a while, let's wash up and come down."

Aunt Wangmo said yes repeatedly, telling them that if they didn't eat porridge, they could take a few buns from her on the road.

In the dawn of the plateau, the air was cold and thin. Wangmo told Kampot that they would come out soon, and handed Kampot a cigarette and said, "This is the style of the rich? If you give money, don't you want to stay in bed?"

Gonpo smiled shrewdly, "That's why I chose to pull this job."

Just as they were talking, the four people came out, and Aunt Wangmu hurriedly handed over the steaming buns.

This time it was Lao Gu who was holding the girl, looking half asleep, murmuring something in Lao Gu's ear. Aunt Wangmo looked at it and smiled: "This is your wife, right? Since she's not feeling well, You go to Pianma and go back quickly, it’s nothing to see, isn’t it just a few Burmese and a stone.”

Gu Beikun's expression was startled, and he lowered his eyes to look at Nana who was leaning against his neck unconsciously. The body temperature of the two brought a little warmth in this cool dawn, which reminded him inadvertently of the past. Good time.

So he smiled: "Yes, it's a daughter-in-law. I'll take her home soon."

Aunt Wangmu laughed, but Ma Zai and A Jie looked at Gu Beikun anxiously.

It's true that they are going home, but it's just another home across the country gate; Gu Beikun tacitly accepts that Nana is his wife, but the person in his arms won't admit it.If Lao Gu thought they had a good time in the past, then for Yu Nana, it was probably a nightmare from the beginning to the end.

Ajie is a woman, and she is also the one who sees the entanglement between the two from beginning to end. She somewhat couldn't bear to turn her eyes away.

It's early summer now, but it's not hot in Yunnan.The car bumped for a day, and finally arrived at Fengxue Yakou at an altitude of 3153 meters.

At this time, the evening was approaching, and the visibility on the mountain was reduced due to fog, so the driver accelerated the speed of the car instead.Because we were driving on a mountain road, several people stayed in the car all day. Even if they were dizzy and didn't close their eyes, the driver had already accepted the strangeness.

It's just that the driver speeded up due to bad weather, and Ah Jie complained: "Brother, drive slower."

Gongbu knew it well, and smiled while turning the steering wheel from left to right: "The weather is bad, it gets dark fast, and driving slowly is more dangerous, don't be afraid."

This section of the road made Ajie feel like vomiting, she was a bit envious of Nana who didn't know anything, but she didn't dare to touch Nana's "medicine" with a gun at her, so she had to take the words that Aunt Towangmu bought yesterday. Mei opened it, took one and put it in her mouth, suppressing the dizziness and nausea forcefully.

At 06:30, the car entered Pianma Town and walked for 12 hours, but the sun was shining when we got down the mountain.

The car passed the town government and Guomen Primary School all the way, and stopped at the entrance of a guest house. Gu Beikun let Mazai and the driver handle the accommodation matters. He glanced at the Pianma Port, which was close at hand, and quickly looked away, looking around at the Panshan Road. That valley-shaped depression, with some reclaimed farmland and huts, looks picturesque in the setting sun and is full of artistic conception.

Kampot is a regular here and has reserved rooms.After making an appointment with Gu Beikun for the return trip tomorrow, he wandered out to meet people he knew well.

Lao Gu and his party went to a small restaurant to have dinner as usual, and went to bed early.

At two o'clock in the morning, two adjacent windows on the first floor of the guest house opened.Because the house is close to the steep slope of the depression, no one can climb it, and the folk customs here are simple, and there are no anti-theft fences outside the windows.

I saw two black shadows, one big and one small, stepping on the edge of the slope by the window first, and then let go, and slid all the way down the steep slope to the bottom, making only a slight "wiping" sound, and No more noticeable than the sound of the wind in the dark.

Ma Zai and A Jie met at the bottom of the slope as high as a two-story building. Gu Beikun carried the man on his back, and his movements were much clumsy. Fortunately, someone was watching from below, so he was able to stabilize himself and not fall, but he staggered a bit.

Ma Zai gestured for him to carry someone, but Gu Beikun refused, and he only said to leave quickly.

The three walked lightly and swiftly across the hollow, and only the moonlight saw them wearing the stars and wearing the moon.

Pianma Port stretches a frontier cordon horizontally along the ridge of Gaoligong Mountain, and each light symbolizes a sentry post.This pedestrian has long been accustomed to this, they are people who make a living on this border, and they have long been familiar with the ports of Muse, Raza, Qingshuihe and Ganbaidi.

Even Pianma and the others came here for the first time. The three of them rushed to the foot of the mountain and groped onto a local path. They climbed up the almost vertical slope familiarly, with amazing foot strength.

In less than half an hour, the three of them turned over the top of the mountain and went to the downhill peripheral road. This trail hangs on the cliff. It was dug by the locals when they used it to build the trestle bridge, and the mountain wall is only five meters high. From above, you can see the dim light of the outermost sentry post.

The Nujiang River rushes past the feet, and it has never changed for thousands of years. This speed that can devour everything, Ajie groped the mountain wall, and carefully explored the way with her toes. The sensitive soles of her feet could almost feel the speed of the rush. trembling pebbles.

Compared with the Chinese side, the management of the Burmese side is much more lax. Even if someone is found illegally crossing the border in the middle of the night, there will be no major disturbances. Anyone living on the border knows that desperadoes are bosses who make a lot of money.

A Jie and Ma Zai noticed that the lights in northern Burma were approaching, so they dared to signal for safety, but they didn't know that Gu Beikun, who insisted on going to the back of the palace behind his back, had disappeared.

The night on the Nujiang River was dark, with deafening torrents beside my ears, and no matter how many stars in the sky, they could not shine into this black hole-like mountain valley.

It is not difficult for Gu Beikun to carry Nana on his back. He has traveled to and from the China-Myanmar border countless times when he was 15 years old, and his skills are also first-class, otherwise he would not be where he is today.But today he carried someone on his back, and that person has never been very obedient.

He watched the figures of A Jie and Ma Zai getting farther and farther away from him. In front of him was an escape, and behind him was an abyss, but he suddenly stopped moving.

After a while, he tilted his head slightly, and sighed softly against the ear of the person behind him, panting with fatigue: "Nana, I warned you, don't play with me."

Inanna didn't find a chance on the plane or train, and she was the most stupid fool to think of escaping in this limited space.Although Gu Beikun saw that she seemed obedient and obedient, he never let go of his surveillance of her in secret. He didn't even think about Ajie, and ate and lived with Inanna next to him all the way.

When Inanna opened the window frame of the inn's bathroom earlier, he was caught by him who had been watching outside the door.

She remembered that night when she escaped with the documents, Gu Beikun just looked at her with such cold eyes, and then he ruined Inanna's life with a No. [-].

So in the bathroom, after a two-month detox/drug period that was worse than death, Gu Beikun pressed her in the bathtub and gave her another injection.

He didn't want her to be ruined just like that, but for a woman who refused to obey, he didn't mind using drugs/addiction and forced quitting to torture and conquer her.

As long as she has number seven in her hand, Inanna will never escape. No one in this world has been able to successfully get rid of this powder that is more expensive than gold.

Gu Beikun was worried that Inanna's drug/addiction would show up in front of outsiders during the short distance left, so he gave her Suleazepam for two days.Because she had been in a coma and couldn't eat or drink much, Inanna's lips were already dry.

Her waist was tightly wrapped around Gu Beikun's body with a bandage, and she lay on his back, lurking all the way without moving.

When Gu Beikun walked along the mountain wall and finally found a place to rest his feet, he realized that there was a sharp object on the back of his waist.

But in this small space, he couldn't use it, he couldn't even turn around and restrain this dying woman.

For a long time, after he threatened, Inanna still didn't let go.

Gu Beikun chuckled twice, and the laughter was blown away by the wind in an instant, but Inanna was hanging on him, and he could hear every word clearly: "Nana, such a thing can't kill me , When I get to northern Burma, I will give you a chance. I stripped myself off without any self-defense gadgets, so I just put it on you, and see if you killed me or I killed you?!"

Hearing that he was so shameless, Inanna bit her lip to force herself to calm down. The needle hole on her arm had already made her numb, so her hand was like a piece of wood lying sideways without moving, and even pushed in two inches.

The tip of the small knife pierced into the flesh, even if it could not kill the person, Gu Beikun hissed secretly, and leaned against the stone wall, puzzled: "You woman, do you still expect to go back to be a policeman?" ?Even if you put all the details about me in the past few years on top, those officials will give you credit for your crimes, and you will end up arranging a better rehab/drug center. Nana, I will give you everything It’s a good thing, No. [-], it’s hard to find gold on the black market, didn’t I just give you two in one go?”

This was the pain of Inanna's life. The thing in the needle pushed into her flesh and blood, and she was stripped from a bright world.

Speaking of it, Gu Beikun didn't make her suffer too much, and he didn't forget to take her with him when he fled thousands of miles away.In the eyes of the man, both of Inanna's parents died and her future was ruined. The two of them were not without feelings for each other. He thought that he had cut off all of Inanna's retreats by means of extreme means, and she had no reason to walk away with him obediently .

Moreover, he gave up the country he had struggled for many years, and let Nana torment him. Even a blind person should understand this intention.

If a person has no faith, it is very easy to conquer.

But if Inanna was such a woman who surrendered easily, Gu Beikun probably wouldn't fall on her.

The woman leaned against his back and laughed hoarsely twice, like falling rocks and rotten wood shrill amidst the sound of wind and waves: "Gu Beikun, did you expect that I have nowhere to go and can only rely on you?" ?”

Gu Beikun didn't answer, but Inanna knew that he must be confident. There was a movement from the front. It must be that Ajie and Ma Zai realized that Gu Beikun hadn't followed, and turned back to respond.

Inanna understood that this might be her only chance in this life, and the prospect of stepping out of the torrent under her feet would not be brighter than the darkness. She leaned close to Gu Beikun's ear, "I was the one who chose to be an undercover agent at the time, and I asked to come to you .Gu Beikun, I knew you ten years ago!"

Even though Gu Beikun was a figurehead in the north for several years, when he heard Inanna mentioning this episode that he didn't know about, he couldn't help being suspicious and stunned.

In just that moment, Inanna used all her strength to support herself on the stone wall. Taking advantage of Gu Beikun's posture of tying him to herself, the two of them fell on the cliffside path that was barely enough for one of them to turn around. .

A Jie was about to scream, but Ma Zai covered her mouth, and her voice was firmly blocked in her throat. Only the heat flowing into Ma Zai's hands showed that everything was irreversible.

Ajie was devastated, but the frontier guards didn't notice it, and the dim light still flickered above their heads dully and lonely.

The two people who disappeared from their eyes fell into the hunting night wind, and their feet were like a bottomless abyss. Devours all life and the eyes that seek to see where it flows.
