Chapter 069 Forward
Xiao Yun took a deep breath and then said, "Don't be afraid of wolves and tigers. Look, she is only twelve or three years old. She is so young. Coupled with her serious lack of nutrition, she will probably kill her life when giving birth. It's just one day earlier and one day later..."
Solo was still a little hesitant and said after a while, "Then should I... ask her or not?"
Seeing that Solo was like this, Xiao Yun did not force Solo anymore, but smiled and let Solo decide by himself.
In the end, Solo decided not to ask the girl. Because although having a child will die, it will be a few months later. And if you ask now, she may not be able to live for even a few months.
Soro made such a decision, and Xiao Yun said nothing more. After all, under the condition that the general environment does not change, even if they kill the soldiers of the warlords, the lives of the two girls cannot be guaranteed.
It rained all night, but thanks to the thick plastic bags and broken walls, they were not caught in the rain and the wind. In addition, there are 20 to 30 centimeters of earth walls outside, so they are not soaked in the rain.
At dawn, the rain was much lighter. Xiao Yun and others uncovered the plastic cloth and a fresh smell of grassland came towards them.
The wind that blew in was damp and cold, which woke up the two sleeping girls. The two of them stared at their beautiful big eyes and looked at Xiao Yun and Solo packing up.
For Xiao Yun and Solo, they must leave this area before full light. After all, Xiao Yun and others have disposed of two batches of patrols, which should be known to the leaders of the Somali Al-Shabaab after one night. So the sooner you leave, the better.
Solo didn't wake up and his eyes were fascinated, but he still struggled to get up and pack up. Because he also knows that the price to get a good sleep is often life.
"Solo! Leave them something to eat. If it weren't for them, we would have been hit by the wind and rain tonight. We should thank them..."
When Solo heard Xiao Yun say this, he answered softly. To the two girls, Solo was not stingy with the food in his marching bag. He opened the marching bag and took out two sausages, two bags of beef and a bag of compressed biscuits and put them in front of the two girls.
Xiao Yun also opened his marching bag and took out one or two boxes of compressed biscuits, two bags of beef, and four apples, and put them together with Solo's food.
The two poor girls stared at Xiao Yun and Solo, and their eyes were full of disbelief.
"You take this money. If you have any problems that you can't deal with, you can use it to go to other villages to ask for help from others." Xiao Yun took out another denomination of 10 euros from his pocket. Solo told the two girls what Xiao Yun said in indigenous language.
"This 10 euros can be exchanged for at least 50,000 shillings. You have to keep this money. You can't take it to buy food, do you understand? It was taken to ask others for help when your sister was about to have a baby..."
The two girls took the money in Xiao Yun's hand in a daze, and Xiao Yun no longer wasted time. He pulled out two pieces of plastic paper from the corner, wrapped the marching bag, and then drilled out.
The rain is still falling, but the wind is not too strong, and the rain is not too urgent, but with a piercing chill. The youngest little girl opened the plastic paper and looked at Xiao Yun and Solo timidly. The eyes are mixed with a strong dependence and nostalgia.
Xiao Yun raised his head, and the rain hit his face and flowed down his neck into his body. The chill was like an ice vertebra, all into his heart.
"Mr. Xiao... We should go..."
Hearing Solo's words, Xiao Yun took a deep breath and answered faintly, "Well, it's time to go..."
The two skinny little girls still looked at Xiao Yun and Solo behind the plastic paper. Xiao Yun turned around and smiled at the two little girls, and then stepped forward.
Xiao Yun doesn't understand the indigenous language of Somalia, but he knows that smile is the common language of the whole world, so he can only say goodbye to these two poor children with a smile. I hope they can live as tenaciously as the grass on the African grassland.
Maybe the order will cause more injustice to them, destroy all their hopes, and tear up all their souls, but it is already a victory for their sisters to survive and survive strong.
Solo took a deep breath, hugged Bartrey and shrank his neck to follow Xiao Yun's place.
Several dark shadows appeared on the distant horizon, which were several tall palm trees. At this time, they were full of vitality because they had absorbed the rain. The wind passed by, and the head of the tree shook, just like an old man who drank a few pounds.
In the drizzling rain, Xiao Yun and others slowly walked forward. After about five or six minutes, both of them recovered completely and adapted to such an environment, Xiao Yun said in a low voice, "Let's run forward."
Hearing Xiao Yun say this, Solo answered, shook off his legs and ran forward. The military boots popped in the muddy water! Bang!' The sound. This made Xiao Yun know that Solo had been following him.
The village where they stayed last night gradually became thinner and finally completely submerged in the rain and the horizon. The sky is still not bright, and the raindrops are like the tears of a lover, constantly dripping down.
According to the information obtained by Solo, they are going to cross the desert from here. Of course, if they are lucky, they should be able to meet an oasis in the desert.
The trees are getting thinner and thinner until they disappear completely. At this time, Solo said loudly, "Mr. Xiao, let's eat those wild fruits for the next meal... Look at those wild fruit trees, and the delicious fruits on which are much stronger. When I was a child, at this time, I would find a way to escape from the orphanage and go to these places with wild fruit trees to pick wild fruits to eat..."
Do you know? The pulp of these wild fruits is very sweet. These things are life-saving things for the poor... It tastes sweet, and it is also very full... Especially the baobab tree..."
The more Solo talked, the more excited he became, and his pace couldn't help but accelerate a lot.
"Oh... baobab tree... I've heard about this tree. In the desert, if you can't find water, you can use a dagger to scratch it, and the water in it will flow out. You can drink it directly with your mouth open. Moreover, the fruit, leaves, and bark of this tree have a very good anti-inflammatory effect, and even have a certain antipyretic effect..."
Hearing Xiao Yun say this, Solo couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Mr. Xiao, you know so much about Africa, so why..."
Although Solo's words are not finished, Xiao Yun knows what Solo means. Solo wants to ask, why does Xiao Yun know so much about Africa, but not the lives of ordinary Africans?
In fact, these things are all obtained from books. As for African life, many Chinese people don't understand it.
Seeing that Xiao Yun didn't say anything, Solo smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, as long as there is such a tree on this road, we don't have to worry about it in the desert. This is absolutely a sacred thing given by God to the creatures in the desert..."
After Soro finished speaking, a baobab tree appeared in front of him. Solo's eyes suddenly opened wide and swallowed his saliva, as if he wanted to rush over and get some fruit to eat...
"Since there is food, do you think the villagers nearby won't take it away? It may be too late for you to go now. Xiao Yun said with a faint smile.
And Solo couldn't help slowing down with some frustration, and then looked left and right. Obviously, the Patrol car of the Somali Al-Shabaab should not be far from this area, otherwise the trees here will be eaten by the hungry villagers.
And those soldiers can stop and climb up to get something to eat when they are thirsty. This makes their patrol route more refreshing. It is for this reason that they do not allow the poor to appear here.
"Solo, you don't want to eat all the time. Now you should pay attention to the camouflage network on your body, and you should pay more attention to how you should change your camouflage according to the change of the environment. For example, now, when we see these trees, we don't think of eating its fruit, but getting some of their branches to disguise us.
Hearing Xiao Yun say this, Solo smiled shyly, pulled out the dagger from the dagger bag on his leg, and then dived over to get something to disguise.
Soon, the two came to a lush weed pile and squatted, and then observed the situation around them to make sure that there was no ambush around.
After confirming the safety, Xiao Yun went under the baobab tree and squatted down, while Solo stood up a few meters behind, then accelerated, and finally stepped on Xiao Yun's shoulders. At this time, Xiao Yun suddenly pushed his body, and Solo's chubby body rushed straight up.
"Cut down those branches and leaves as much as possible..." Xiao Yun said as he got a weed and wiped off the footprints that Solo stepped on his body.
"Alas! What's going on? In those years, my skills were much worse than this. It was simple to climb the baobab tree, but now it's more difficult than a pig to climb the tree!"
Solo crawled up and complained depressedly. Of course, when he complained that things were wrong, he even complained about why his weight didn't give him face!
"Ha ha... You eat so much and think about it all the time. It's good to be like this." Xiao Yun squatted on the ground to reduce the chance of being found. Looking up at the heavy Solo, he couldn't help laughing.
In fact, if Xiao Yun is on, Xiao Yun is very simple. However, it is still the same sentence. Where Solo is there, it is impossible for Xiao Yun to show all his strength, which will bring great trouble to Xiao Yun.
After climbing angrily for three minutes, Solo finally found the branch he wanted to cut. After cutting, he held the tree and slid down again. However, he is so fat that if he slides down like this, it will inevitably cause a little pressure on his lower body.
After finally getting off the tree, Solo began to run to Xiao Yun and complain, "What the mother, it's not just the pain, I'm afraid my trousers are over... Where can I buy another one..."
