Chapter 1036 Suddenly there is an old man's heart, looking back on the mountains and rivers is already autumn
(BGM——"At The Place Where You Call" electric guitar version, Wang Yiyun recommends the version played by Xiaobo or Liu Linfeng)
Cheng Mo never thought that Xie Minyun would smile so brightly, that iceberg-like girl would smile brighter than the summer sun.
The smile shone in his pupils, so golden that he could hardly open his eyes, and the burning sensation even stimulated him to resist with tears.This dazzling light even penetrated his skin, like warm alcohol dissolved in his blood, surging and boiling in his blood vessels, sweeping through the main stream and ends, impacting his brain and soul.
Cheng Mo didn't feel the severe pain, he just felt that he was not standing in a refugee camp on the outskirts of Damascus at this moment, but standing in the cold and endless Wangchuan River, letting the muddy river wash away His body, sculpted with ailments and wrinkles.
The world has no mercy for him, and the darkness of the long night has no bounds.
However, when he raised his head inadvertently, he found an indelible light shining right above his head.In fact, Xie Minyun is always there, illuminating every moment of his loneliness.
But as her husband, what has he given her?
Not only did he fail to protect her, but he was always protected by her secret and distant tenderness. Even though she was far away from the hustle and bustle, she still projected love on him in an incredible way, protecting him and warming him.
Cheng Mo suddenly felt that those sweet memories mixed in the long river of time were like sharp knives, they passed through his body, forcibly taking away half of the meaning of his life.
A few tears blurred his vision, and he looked at Xie Minyun in the misty halo, as if separated by a galaxy far away.
A strong sense of loneliness and frustration surged out from the hollow in his heart, and his thoughts could only drift with the flow. He seemed to have returned to the time when he was sinking into the long and tedious self-enclosed day after day.
In retrospect, he can be regarded as precocious, but he has always been indifferent to those romantic novels and TV series. When he was in elementary school, his female classmates were watching "Full House", "Mischievous Kiss", "Legend of Sword and Fairy" , The stationery store is full of posters of idol stars, and the female students flock to them.
At that time, he fully realized that such a thing as "love" must only be related to handsome men and beautiful women, and it is impossible to have half a dime relationship with bean sprouts like him who are weak, sick and have no specialties.
It may be because Cheng Mo kept hypnotizing himself, or it may be the weight of heart disease that made him a maverick weirdo.It's just that young Muai is an irresistible human instinct, no matter how firm Cheng Mo is, as he grows older, he will inevitably have vague expectations for the opposite sex in his heart.
However, unlike other teenagers, he feels that his cognition of love is closer to the essence, so he has always maintained a critical attitude towards those plots where love is shocking. What kind of drama do you like, if it is a girl who likes "Meteor Garden", "Tiny Times" or "The Heirs" and other Cinderella variant dramas, there are nine out of ten. I don't agree with him.
And those TV dramas that are too realistic, such as "Snail House", "The Era of Naked Marriage", etc., he also doesn't like, especially those dramas that entangle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Cheng Mo hates them even more.
As for the classics "Dream of Red Mansions", "Gone with the Wind", "Anna Karenina", and "The Great Gatsby", etc., he will read them, but he always thinks that love in turbulent times does not have much reference value, and the point of view of these books is not love itself.It is about the relationship between man and the world, and the uncontrollable personal destiny in the torrent of the times.
If anything, his favorite love story is a cartoon.And this manga is neither a sci-fi flirtatious bible-"Young pig-headed boy will not dream of a bunny girl senior", nor is it an anti-routine school full of sophomores-"My Youth Love Story Really Has a Problem" ", not to mention "The Flower of Evil", which is regarded as the standard by young literary and artistic youth.
It's an ancient anime from the Showa period - "A Moment of Gathering".
This comic tells an extremely ordinary love story. The content of the story is too ordinary. There is no parting, no amnesia in a car accident, and no real sadomasochism. From the beginning to the end, the love trajectory of the hero and heroine is very different Clear, although there are some entanglements and hesitation in the middle, those hesitation and entanglement are not deliberate at all, they are very realistic and realistic problems.Generally speaking, this is a comic that tells the story of warm feelings between ordinary people.
The male protagonist of the story is a naive and not-so-rich re-examination fifth generation, while the female protagonist is a young, bright and beautiful widow Otono Kyoko.
In the Showa era when the themes of doomsday and saving the earth prevailed, the male protagonists were all Ultraman ("Ultraman"), Astro Boy ("Astro Boy"), Monkey King ("Dragon Ball"), and Seiya ("Dragon Ball"). An iron-blooded man like Saint Seiya) and an indecisive central air conditioner like the fifth generation are still rare. Although everyone is tired of seeing such a Japanese-style male protagonist now, at that time, the fifth generation was still groundbreaking. .
From the beginning to the end, Cheng Mo didn't have much affection for the fifth generation. He only liked Otonashi Kyoko, and he had no resistance to such a gentle, kind and a little wayward young mature woman like Kyoko.
In his heart, Otonashi Kyoko was really beautiful.
In the present, it is impossible to become a heroine with an identity like a widow. Not to mention that Otonashi Kyouko is far from the popular template heroines nowadays. Apart from the general advantage of being beautiful, it can be said that she is full of bad things. point.She doesn't have any great abilities, she doesn't have a rich background, and she doesn't have a deep affection for the hero, and she is even a widow who has been married once.
There are no earth-shattering events or incredible reversals in the plot that attracts Chengmo. They are all trivial frictions that often appear in life, and there are some jealousy caused by personality factors. All emotions are accumulated in some minutiae of life middle.
For example, Otonashi Kyouko watched Godai leave home in the morning, and patiently waited for him to return at night.Apart from a tie, the gift for the fifth generation is the bento carefully prepared every day.
In fact, Xiangzi's gentle protection is everywhere, in the heavy rain at the station, in the night after drunkenness, in every smiling morning, and in every dusk when waiting for the return of the five generations.
For a young man like Cheng Mo, there is probably no more realistic tenderness than this.
And an angel like Xie Minyun who drew his sword to protect him is the fantasy of little boys, and it is too far away from reality.
Although Cheng Mo was only in junior high school when he watched "A Moment of Gathering", he had an old heart. He was not interested in little girls, so he would naturally have more affection for mature women, such as Mr. Shen and Instructor Bai.
There is no doubt that a girl like Xie Minyun is not Cheng Mo's ideal type, so at first he didn't think that anything would happen between him and Xie Minyun until he experienced the ups and downs of the trip to Europe.
That trip, which was supposed to be an ordinary trip, completely broke Cheng Mo's understanding of the world, and also changed the relationship between him and Xie Minyun.Cheng Mo never imagined that he would be the hero in an adventure story, nor did he think that a touching love story would happen to a boring person like him.
However, the development of the plot is very similar to the plot in a nine-rate love novel. After the ordinary male protagonist shares hardships with the noble lady, he develops an unswerving relationship until death, just like the character in "Titanic". Same.
If it is according to the comedy process, the next step is that they broke the shackles of class together and walked together bravely, like the heroes and heroines in fairy tales getting married and having children.
If it is according to the tragedy process, then Xie Minyun or he should be buried under the eternal frozen soil of Siberia. After many years, he or she will revisit the old place with his children and place a bouquet in front of the tombstone on the shore of Lake Baikal. flowers.
What is even more tragic is that they all went back alive, but they failed to survive the obstacles of time and reality. One married and became a wife, and the other married a new lover.Or the tragedy is even more bloody. As a phoenix man who cheated on Mr. Shen, he staged a realistic version of "The Temptation of Going Home". Presumably such a plot of Bai Xue is also popular.
But the development of things is beyond Cheng Mo's imagination.When he returned to Star City from Ennos, he always felt that the possibility of the two people gradually disappearing into each other's world was relatively high. He was always very rational and knew that the gap between Xie Minyun's family and his family was too great. Besides, He is not the kind of person who is keen on dreaming and can persevere. He never breaks the boat, and he has always been able to give up sunk costs decisively.Even though Xie Minyun hung the two people's names all over the trees in Yuelu Mountain, Cheng Mo was moved and moved, but he was still not optimistic about the future of himself and Xie Minyun.
To be honest, he felt at that time that if Shen Youyi was not his teacher, Shen Youyi would be the most suitable spouse for him. In fact, even Bai Xiuxiu was more in line with his preference than Xie Minyun.In fact, after something that shouldn't have happened with Shen Youyi, he decided not to marry for the rest of his life, and if he didn't promise marriage to anyone, he wouldn't break his promise to anyone.
Reality is often stranger than fiction. He never thought that Xie Minyun would have the courage to marry him directly. Cheng Mo knew what this meant to him. As a rational and realistic chosen one, he knew very well that he should not refuse. There is no reason to reject such a perfect ending to the story.
It's just that he didn't expect that this is not the end, but just the beginning.
He thought he was just a small person far away from the turbulent era, but now he discovered that he was one of the protagonists of the turbulent era.He thought his story was a fairy tale about a princess and a poor boy that no top-level screenwriter would bother to write, but now he realized that his experience was a common suffering of all human beings that only appeared in great novels.
If there is peace in the world, he and Xie Minyun should be graduating right now, and they can live together in a legitimate way. Not to mention that he only wants to be a librarian, even if he really wants to build a library in space, it is not unattainable dream.
Xie Minyun is a perfect girl, and she will definitely be a perfect wife. They share similar interests and personalities, and their lives will be sweet, happy and colorful.He clearly remembered what Xie Minyun said to him in the elevator. They lived in a small town full of auroras, where there were few people, long winters and short summers.In summer, he took his children to the forest to pick fresh wild fruits and mushrooms, while she drove to the town to buy some necessities, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.They planted vegetables and fruits in the yard. When the sun went down, they made a fire and cooked together, and the two children played in the yard.
All these ordinary and beautiful things that are within reach are now a mirror image.
He thought of that great but obscure book - "One Hundred Years of Solitude". Shen Youyi once gave a lecture on the Internet, specifically talking about this novel with grand metaphors.In Shen Youyi's narration, the hopeless struggle and demise of the Buendia family generation after generation is the true reflection of human society.Like the Buendia family, human beings continue to repeat the same mistakes in the spiral, just like the "Ouroboros", which symbolizes the self-devouring circle of fate.
Marquez extracted the commonality of human history and integrated it into the lines of "One Hundred Years of Solitude".
The era and history are too vast, and the power of individuals is simply not worth mentioning.
Just like Colonel Buendia, no matter how good he was at war and how powerful he was, he could only immerse himself in the loneliness of making small goldfish in his later years; Rebecca, who was strong against fate, lost her husband Closed in the house and eating soil alone until death; as the only person who has insight into the lonely fate of the Buendia family, Amaranta weaves her own shroud day after day, waiting for the god of death; and the most simple and true Meme , after a brief love, spent the rest of her life in a remote monastery.
Except for the members of the Buendia family who died unexpectedly, they could not escape the companionship of loneliness and ended their life in self-enclosure. Loneliness and isolation are the inescapable endings of life.When you are too old to change and can't do anything about the future, the only seemingly feasible way is to seek solace in the past, in the repetitive labor, in the same every day, to anesthetize yourself in a daze.
Is it not the case in human society?
"Hegemony has no eternity".
All contradictions and conflicts arise because of this, and the times are always developing. Not only people will age, but the country will also age.Wealth cannot stay in the pockets of one person or one country forever. When cracks appear in the solid throne of interests, the hegemony will be shaken. Some people will want to consolidate it, while others will want to fight for it. The cycle goes on and on forever.
This sense of powerlessness is not only an inescapable fate for everyone, but also an inescapable fate for the entire human society.
Each of us is closely related to this world. We can't be alone, but we can't change it.
As the bookstore owner wrote: The past is all fake, memory is a road with no return, and all the past springs cannot be recovered.
More than 100 years of loneliness.
Loneliness is eternal.
"There really is no greater fable than this." Cheng Mo thought to himself, he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the melody of Xie Minyun's singing, and her indifferent and warm voice was rippling in his blank mind, like wandering in the middle of the night The nocturne played by the waves.
"A crying face will turn into a beautiful smile one day
I want to shed the tears of this moment
share with everyone in the world
do it gently
constantly fighting each other, hurting each other
Humans are fragile creatures
But I still believe in the power of love
must still exist"
During the singing, Cheng Mo remembered the plot of the last episode of "The Moment Together". Otono Kyouko, who was addicted to missing her lover, finally came out of her loneliness. That's great~"
Cheng Mo heard Otonashi Kyouko's inner voice: Love is the only way to overcome loneliness.
On October 2020, 10, a girl asked him: "I put on a citrus-flavored lip balm today, do you want to try it?"
They hugged and kissed on the snow and under the aurora, resisting loneliness with love.
She asked, "Is it sweet enough?"
He replied: "The sweetness is enough, but the weight seems to be much worse."
She said: "I will pay you back for the rest of my life, and tomorrow we will go to get a marriage certificate."
At that time, he thought to himself, how can a person promise such a long-term thing, and he didn't take her seriousness seriously, because he felt that there was no way to promise such a thing as love.
Of course he was wrong, very wrong.
She didn't break her promise, she really used it all her life.
It's just that her life is too short.
It was so short that he didn't have time to carefully arrange a confession and farewell ceremony, and he couldn't tell her metaphors about love and happiness, and he couldn't even be the ending of life and stories with her.
Don't be too surprised, there are always unexpected goodbyes in the world, and sudden departures. The amount of tears is limited. It is better to cut out the memory and treasure it, and respond to the parting with a smile.
So Cheng Mo smiled.
He stared at Xie Minyun in the photo and thought: "How can I be in pain? I shouldn't cry, I am a very cool boy in Xie Xiaojin's heart."
He seemed to hear her say to him: "No, not very cool, you are the coolest one."
————————————————————————
"Mr. Xie? Mr. Xie"
Feier waved his hand in front of Cheng Mo's eyes several times before Cheng Mo recovered from the vortex of memory. He pretended to be inadvertent and wiped his forehead with his elbow, taking the opportunity to wipe away his tears.Then he put down his hand and turned to smile at Fayle. His smile is now very natural, not as stiff as before, as if someone pushed his cheek. "Sorry, I didn't expect to see pictures of such a beautiful Chinese girl here, so I was a little surprised."
Under the dim light, Fail didn't see the teardrops flashing in the corner of Cheng Mo's eyes just now, his attention was instantly shifted to the photo by Cheng Mo, he looked at the photo of Xie Minyun, and said proudly: " She is more than beautiful! Miss Xie is like an angel!"
Cheng Mo said softly, "Yes! She is an angel."
"By the way! Your Chinese pronunciation is the same. Is it the same surname?"
Cheng Mo didn't expect to encounter such an incredible coincidence. He just lied about his surname "Xie" at the gate just now. Fortunately, this is not a flaw. He nodded and said, "It is indeed a surname."
"Do you know her?" Fayle was a little excited.
Cheng Mo shook his head heavily, "I don't know each other. There are many people with the surname Xie in China. Although this surname is not as common as Mohammed in the Middle East, it is not rare."
Fayle showed regret, "You were so serious just now, I thought you knew Miss Xie!"
Cheng Mo stared at the slightly yellowed photo and said, "I think... people who can know her will be very happy."
"You're right, if it wasn't for her, our family wouldn't know where we were wandering."
Feier was deeply moved, but Cheng Mo thought: Without her, I am still wandering.
Of course, Feier couldn't tell what Cheng Mo was thinking. Seeing that he didn't speak, he turned his head to look in the direction of the room, and shouted loudly, "Wife, are you up?"
"Get up, get up."
A middle-aged woman in the traditional dress of Suria opened the cloth curtain and came out of the room. Her face was not covered with a scarf, but she was wrapped in a beautiful Amila turban and cheap red on her lips. Lipstick, it's not like she was woken up by an inexplicable guest early in the morning, but she is preparing to participate in a grand festival.
Fayle waved his hand and said loudly, "Hurry up and make some food for the two distinguished guests, and squeeze two cups of date palm juice."
Cheng Mo said quickly, "Don't bother."
Feier shook his head and said, "No trouble, no trouble." He turned to his wife and said, "Go, I remember that there were pastries brought back from Damascus by Midani yesterday."
Feier's wife greeted Cheng Mo and Athena with a smile, then turned and walked into the dark kitchen.
Cheng Mo also smiled. In other countries, this may not seem enthusiastic enough, but in Syria, unless relatives and friends come, the owner's wife will not come out at all. Fayer asked his wife to meet for only ten minutes. The strangers have expressed enough enthusiasm.
All this is because of his identity as a Chinese, or more directly because of Xie Minyun.Cheng Mo had never felt such warmth from a stranger's kindness.
After the lights in the kitchen came on, Fayle pointed to the old fabric sofa on the edge of the small living room and said, "Sit down for a while, date palm juice and breakfast need to wait."
Cheng Mo greeted Athena to sit on the sofa, and pretended to ask casually: "Why is there a picture of a Chinese girl in your house?"
"It's not just our family. In our refugee camp, as long as the children have taken pictures with Miss Xie, they will put the pictures on it."
"why?"
"To be honest, I don't know why, but everyone just did it by coincidence. Maybe it's because we have never seen such a sincere, kind and beautiful girl." Fayle turned to look at the photo, and Looking at the child holding the handrail, "She is an angel sent by the Creator to walk on the earth"
Cheng Mo remembered that Nuwa once asked him if he really knew Xie Minyun, and told him that Xie Minyun had donated money to build schools and refugee camps in Africa and the Middle East. It is sincerely doing charity and wants to do something for the world.But it doesn't make much sense from a personal level. You must know that even if a certain country wants to change another country, it is not so easy.If Xie Minyun just wants to do this personally, it is tantamount to doing useless work, and he feels that she can't change anything.
The facts seem to be as he expected. Several years have passed, these places are still in dire straits, and those displaced people are still struggling with poverty and hunger.
Cheng Mo asked: "Did she donate money to build this refugee camp?"
"It's not just building a few refugee camps. Ms. Xie also built our only school next to Duma Town." After a pause, Feier's tone became ashamed, "When she first came, we treated her too much. There is a misunderstanding, thinking that she is just like those Westerners who come to show, just take a few photos, and then donate money to those bureaucrats and then leave. But she is completely different from what we think, she not only donated money, passed She came back three months later. Seeing that the school had only laid the foundation, she lost her temper with the officials in Duma Town. The bureaucrats tried to explain everything, but they couldn't stop Ms. Xie from personally supervising the progress of the project the next day. Probably It was because the construction team invited by the UNHCR was too slow, so she ran over and organized us homeless refugees gathered on the edge of the town to help repair the house. Of course we ignored her at first, until she said that she would pay a certain amount. Salary. At that time, the officials in Duma Town advised her not to do this, as it would only bring her troubles. She didn’t believe it, and insisted on hiring us refugees to work, and I was one of them.”
"Is it because after you went to work, you made trouble again and asked for a raise?" Cheng Mo said.
Fayle laughed. "Dignity! Morality! That doesn't exist in the refugee world."
Cheng Mo nodded, "I can understand."
"In the beginning, we just joined forces to slow down the construction period. Later, we found that Ms. Xie was really easy to talk to, so I recommended a representative to negotiate with Ms. Xie and asked for lunch and dinner. Although the food supply was very tight at that time, Ms. Xie agreed immediately, and immediately They brought us milk and bread. But we didn’t remember Ms. Xie at all. Instead, we felt that she was a bully, and immediately intensified and asked for a salary increase. We selected some representatives to negotiate with Ms. Xie, and I was also recommended one of the representatives"
"I guess she will agree to give you a salary increase, but she will set you a daily schedule that must be completed."
"Haha!" Fayle laughed, "You Chinese people understand Chinese people. Miss Xie really told us so, and we agreed. But after we finish our work every day, we will sneak back at night to finish the day. Sometimes the demolition is so fierce that the whole day is worthless. Anyway, we are paid every day, and we are not afraid of what a little Chinese girl will do to us. I don’t know that Miss Xie knew us from the beginning. What I did was only found out later. In short, one night, we were caught by her, but she did not blame us, but told us sincerely that this is a school built for our children. This place not only allows our children to study for free, but also provides them with free meals. She can’t stay here for a long time. If she can’t finish it within the construction period, she can only leave. If the school is not repaired by then, follow-up All the work, probably just stop. I remember very well, she told us."
The two children standing by the sofa spoke first: "Only knowledge can change destiny."
Fayle raised his hand and touched the child's head, "Yes, she said that knowledge can change destiny. If we don't want our descendants to be homeless like this, we have to let them read more books. She also found The old imam, the bedridden old imam recovered miraculously. The old imam said that this school is the only chance if we don’t want our children to be like us and have to rely on the pity of others to survive. We discussed After a long time, even if we didn’t believe in Ms. Xie, we still believed in the respected old imam. Later, we completed the work on time and according to the quantity, but because we were delayed for too long, seeing that the construction period was approaching, it was still a bit short of the completion of the project. Far."
Seeing that Feier stopped deliberately, Cheng Mo curled the corners of his mouth and made a smiling expression, "No need to whet your appetite, I know she will definitely help you."
"It's a bit blunt." Fayle smiled, "Miss Xie works with us personally every day, we didn't expect that a young lady like Didi can do rough work better than us, no matter how we are men, of course we can't admit defeat. Probably because of God's help, we finally finished repairing the school the day before the construction deadline, but no one thought that Miss Xie's troubles had just begun."
Feier described Xie Minyun's charitable deeds in detail, how she persuaded the refugees to send girls to the school after the school was built; she said that she started building a refugee camp to solve the problem of refugees going to school to steal food; She said that in order for the refugees in the refugee camp to have a livelihood, she not only helped plan the mutual aid organization, but also sent seeds and agricultural tools. Now the large wheat field in the east was planted by these refugees hard and belongs to them. property of refugees.
Cheng Mo listened with gusto. Although Fayer's words were dry, Cheng Mo could feel Xie Minyun's comfort and satisfaction from those simple words.Cheng Mo knows that Xie Minyun has never been a person who only lives for herself, and there is a great love in her heart that Cheng Mo cannot understand.
It wasn't until Feier's wife brought the burritos, pastries and date palm juice that Feier stopped talking, and made a gesture of invitation to Chengmo and Athena and said, "Eat something first."
Cheng Mo heard the sound of swallowing saliva, he turned his head to look at the two children who were drooling over the pastry, and said, "You guys eat."
"They have it." Fayle turned to look at the two children, "Go to the kitchen and go to Mommy's to eat."
The two children immediately turned around and rushed into the kitchen. They probably saw some delicious food that they couldn't usually see, and they shouted happily in it.But the laughter was not loud at all, it was as clear as a silver bell, and it sounded very pleasant.
Feier pushed the plate with pastries, burritos, yogurt and a few slices of bacon on the table in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I only have these things at home, please don't hold them back."
Cheng Mo heard the thin sound of water in Feier's tone of voice, probably swallowing his saliva. He had spent a long time in a refugee camp in Athens, and he knew what such a breakfast meant to refugees. He took out the food prepared for the "Holy Book Festival" and shared it with him and Athena, two strangers.
Language is insignificant at this time, and it can't express the hospitality of the Feier family. At this time, Cheng Mo wondered whether Feier had other plans, but what he saw in Feier's eyes and expression was Sincere, polite demeanor filled with sincerity.
The same is true in the base of the Kurds. These believers are so stubborn. If you are an enemy, you must fight to the death and never compromise; if you are a friend, you will immediately take Bring out the best things to share with you, if you don't accept it, it's not good.
But then again, a population with such a character is indeed very easy to go to extremes, especially under the bewitchment of belief.
Cheng Mo pushed the plate back to the middle of the coffee table and said, "Let's eat together." He picked up a piece of nut pastry and handed it to Athena, and he also took a burrito and wrapped it in yogurt.
Seeing that Cheng Mo and Athena were eating with gusto, Feier immediately smiled contentedly, "Thank you, Miss Xie, I used to think that there was no hope for us Syrians, but since she came, everything has improved , as Ms. Xie said, knowledge can change destiny. Nowadays, children who have studied in school can find a good job in Damascus, especially if they are good at Chinese.”
Cheng Mo raised his glass and took a sip of date palm juice, then asked suspiciously: "There should be no Chinese tourists in Damascus, right?"
Feier smiled and explained: "There are not many tourists, but there are many businessmen. The building materials and small commodities in Damascus are all imported from your Huaxia. Huaxia is now our largest trading country in Syria. Chinese is very popular in Damascus, especially those who can speak and write. The salary is enough for them to live a decent life in Damascus. My younger brother works in a building material company. Their company specializes in importing various types of aluminum from China. Alloy windows and glass are cheap and of good quality. He said that as long as he contacts the Huaxia company through the Internet and pays with digital currency, the order can be placed. Huaxia company will deliver the goods to Hong Kong in less than a month, which is very fast. It’s unbelievable.” Fayle said full of longing, “My brother said that the main reason is that our oil production has not yet fully resumed. When the war is completely over and the oil field can be operated, I believe that you Chinese people will help us with infrastructure construction. , Wait until then, the future that Miss Xie described will come!"
Cheng Mo remembered the flames of war that had just been set off again, and said in a low voice, "It will definitely happen."
"In short, no matter who we are in the refugee camp, we are very grateful to Miss Xie, and also very grateful for the help from Huaxia. So it is not surprising that her photo is placed in the most prominent place in the room."
"I'm very proud that a Chinese person can bring so many changes to you." Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun's photo again, and said softly in Chinese, "That's great."
—————————————————————
When the skyline was turning white, Heller and Khalid finally walked back to the armed pickup, which they left behind in a palm tree in the distance of Adela Town. They saw that the armed pickup was safe and sound. Discovered by the Syrian government army, the anxious Heller let go of his tense heartstrings.
Heller put the gun in her bosom on her shoulder, walked quickly to the co-pilot, and said without turning her head: "You have to hurry, when the sky is completely bright, the danger will be much greater."
Khalid responded with "OK", walked quickly to the driver's seat, took out the car key from his pocket, and opened the car door.
After getting into the car, Heller breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought that bastard Reickzka would do something with the keys so that we couldn't even use the car. Fortunately, he didn't."
Khalid inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it to the ignition position. The humming of the engine broke the silence of the morning, the headlights illuminated the twisted tree trunk, and the various pointers on the instrument panel also bounced. He saw He glanced at the oil meter and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Reketska doesn't need to do anything at all. We can run less than [-] kilometers with the remaining oil."
"What?" Heller turned to look over, and said angrily, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Khalid argued aggrievedly: "The situation was so critical last night, I didn't even pay attention to how much gas was left in the car!"
Heller hammered the seat hard, "Why are you so unlucky?"
Khalid opened the door and jumped out of the car, "I'll go see if there are any oil drums in the trailer."
Heller took out the phone from her coat pocket and tried to turn it on again. The black screen of the phone was still indifferent. She frowned and said to herself: "There must be no oil barrels, the bastard Reketska must We're sure we won't be able to go back." Heller's voice trembled again, with a choked cry, "What should I do? What should I do?"
The morning dew condensed on the leaves of the jujube tree in front of the car, and the earth showed signs of waking up. The light at the end of the sky was like a rope tied around her neck, and it became tighter and tighter as time went by. Heller thought: "Even if I rush back now, what can I do? What can I do? God is too cruel to us Querds."
Tears had dried up, and she couldn't bear the overload of pessimism. She clenched her phone tightly and fell into despair.It was pitch black all around, and she couldn't see where she was going, couldn't tell the direction, and didn't know where to go.
"Too bad there are no oil drums in the back!" Khalid's frustrated voice rang out. He pulled the car door and sat in the driver's seat. He turned his head to look at Heller, who was hiding pain between her brows, and saw her helpless look. Khalid was heartbroken, and he felt that he should find a way to help her, so he asked, "How about I find an oil pot and find a way to get some oil at the gas station? A lot of money and they won't doubt me"
Heller thought for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "No, we can't. We have to go to the refugee camp. I can't just go back like this."

When the long and long sound of bunk sounded in the refugee camp, Fayer's family went to the temple to do morning prayers, and only Cheng Mo and Athena were left in the room.
And that photo.
Finally, when no one was there, Cheng Mo got up and walked to the cabinet. He raised his hand and gently stroked Xie Minyun's cold cheek with his fingers. Even though the frame and the photo were spotless, he still picked up the frame and carefully Wipe it down.
In the silence, Athena suddenly said, "It's strange, why did she choose you?"
"Actually, I also find it very strange." Cheng Mo stared at Xie Minyun and said.
"Although it is true that you are not a good match, I don't mean appearance and family background, I mean character."
"Thank you for being so direct." Cheng Mo first whispered self-deprecatingly, and then asked, "Do you care about a person's appearance and family background?"
"Of course not," said Athena, "but you will care."
"That's right, I do care. I'm quite realistic. At first I cared because it was unrealistic, but later I cared because it was too realistic." Cheng Mo put down the photo frame, "I'm just a coward."
"Timid? I didn't see that."
"In extreme situations, I can do anything. I think timid is not enough to describe me. I should be the kind of person who is unwilling to take responsibility, and I am also very good at avoiding responsibility. My personality and hers are really good. It is quite contradictory. The left-wing liberals like her who pursue fairness and justice and the classical liberals like me who advocate the survival of the fittest are naturally incompatible in terms of three views. Logically speaking, she should be the one who sees me as a greedy egoist Those who are not pleasing to the eye, I think she is like an idealistic sand sculpture. But the interesting thing about this world is that as long as you are alive, unpredictable things will happen. Two people with different positions can also love each other. This is actually more important than identity, Family background and appearance are more difficult to overcome, but it just happened. Just like now, you and I, the husband of a red nobleman and the fiancée of a French emperor, are at this moment in a room of refugees, and we seem to be destined God's guidance, and it seems that I came here aimlessly and drifted here." After a pause, Cheng Mo continued, "I saw a photo." He rubbed the photo in his hand and sighed softly, "Unbelievable."
"Then I find it even more strange." Athena seemed to think for a while, and after leaving blank, she suddenly said lightly, "I think the two of us are suitable."
Cheng Mo Athena's direct words were shaken severely, and then he told himself that this was just an example Athena gave casually, and it was only natural for a person with low emotional intelligence like her to say such things.He suppressed the waves in his heart and tried his best to look like he was out of it.
"I have also thought about why she chose me. I have come up with many psychological factors in this regard, primacy effect, suspension bridge effect, Stockholm syndrome. All in all, I think she probably seeks excitement, after all, like me There are not many such dangerous people around her." Cheng Mo looked back at Athena, "As for whether it is suitable or not. Before I was with her, I also thought that we should not be suitable. But in fact, we got along very well. Well, she is a person who is used to giving, and I am a person who is used to taking. Don't look at her cold appearance, in fact, she is a little overflowing with love. Maybe she is afraid that I, the person who once saved her, will go astray, so She chose me regardless! Thinking about it, she was even willing to sacrifice herself for a little girl she had never met before." Thinking of Rebecca Chengmo, she sighed again, "So you can only know whether it is suitable or not when you get along. Of course, maybe our time together is too short and we haven't had time to have friction, but I also blindly believe that she can handle it well."
Athena didn't delve into the question of "suitable or not". Instead, she asked, "You mean she chose you to repay you?"
Cheng Mo shook his head directly and said: "This is the element, not the reason. Sometimes love can be simple, and sometimes it can be very complicated. The reason for falling in love with someone may be just the right one, maybe it is appearance, identity, background , experience, and other complicated factors. Some people’s love is clear, and some people’s love is not.” It seems simple, we can verify some of the conclusions, but we can’t prove how many points in the plane can guarantee that we can find a convex n-gon from it.” Cheng Mo smiled, “In short, as long as the ending is happy, some The problem does not require a conclusion, nor does it need a proof." (In simple terms, the "happy ending problem" is the problem of connecting some points in the plane to form a graph, because the two mathematicians who discovered this problem, George Sekeresh and Esther Clay, who developed a love affair while working on this problem together, hence the name "The Happy Ending Problem".)
When Cheng Mo uttered the "problem of a happy ending", Athena once again entered the state of ethereal contemplation. After Cheng Mo finished speaking for a while, she whispered: "Your example is so ingenious. When a system is large enough, Just like when there are enough points in the "happy ending problem", we can always separate some ordered components, such as convex polygons, even if the system as a whole is disordered. This is the same as love, so many lovers, The reason why some people have love can be summed up in a regular way, and some people can't, you can never prove whether there is a law in love, just like"
Both said at the same time: "George Sekeresh and Esther Clay."
After the unanimous tacit understanding, there was a brief silence. After several breaths, Athena asked again: "Love is more interesting than mathematics?"
"How should I say it?" Cheng Mo placed the photo in the middle of the cabinet. He moved left and right a few times, then moved to look far away, corrected it a few times, and then turned to face Athena, ". When you want to solve a math problem, it's not fun to solve it. When you don't like math and don't want to solve it at all, it's not fun to do it." He shrugged his shoulders , "I don't know if this description is accurate"
"What if he wants to solve that problem, but he can't?"
"It will probably be very painful and painful."
"What about you? Is it untied like you or not?"
Cheng Mo stood in the middle of the living room and was silent for a long time before saying: "A person is actually pretty good, but when a person wants to find another person, he will feel lonely. If one day he finds another person, he will not be able to find another person." If you don't lose it, you will feel very lonely." He didn't look at Xie Minyun's photo again, and didn't give Athena a chance to answer the conversation. He went straight to the sofa and picked up his backpack, then walked to the kitchen and said softly, "I'm preparing in the kitchen. Order something to eat."
Athena looked at Cheng Mo's direction and thought about it, until the familiar fine tune sounded in the kitchen. This sound was mixed in the empty and distant bunk, as if adding a tear-jerking low voice to the high-pitched and bright holy music. This reminded her of the lemon mousse cake her mother made for her. Adding some citric acid to the sweetness will make the cake more refreshing and long-lasting.
This is a taste that she has never been able to forget so far. This taste is deposited in her mind like a stubborn reef.For her, maybe lemon mousse is the taste of mother, sweet and sour.
Perhaps, that could also be the taste of home.
In the memory, Athena smelled the aroma of cardamom and coffee, and she knew that Cheng Mo was preparing Coke for her, so she thought: What about Coke?
What does Coke taste like to her?
She closed her eyes and leaned on the sofa, as if she was resting, or intoxicated by a melodious blues.
-----------------------
After the morning ceremony, Fayer called the UNHCR official Anezan he had mentioned. When he heard that there were Interpol, a Chinese and a German had arrived at the refugee camp, Anezan hurriedly drove from Damascus. Came to the refugee camp in Douma.
Completely different from Fayle, who is simple in appearance and equally simple in heart, Anezan is not only short and fat, cunning and slippery like a landlord, but also quite slippery in speaking, and is very good at bureaucratic accents.
Because of this, even though the appearance of Cheng Mo and Athena was so weird and there were many loopholes in the rhetoric, Anezan didn't even show any doubts when he didn't even explain how he came to Duma.He was even quite cautious in his words, which made Cheng Mo feel humbled.
Cheng Mo understands this kind of "kneeling" mentality. How can he say that he and Athena are indeed foreigners. For a country like Syria, they are serious foreigners. As the patron country of the Douma refugee camp, it is normal for Anezan to grovel.
What makes Cheng Mo sigh is that he never imagined that he would be able to live the addiction of foreign adults in his lifetime.
Anezan had no intention of verifying the identities of Cheng Mo and Athena, Cheng Mo took the initiative to give the documents to Anezan, and he took a cursory look at it, and then enthusiastically agreed to Cheng Mo to help find the identity of Cheng Mo and Athena. Ahmadi Stanger's men.
When Cheng Mo took back the documents, he thought it was really a secret. Patani had prepared several sets of documents for him, each of which could stand the test. Even calling the Interpol headquarters, he could find the corresponding person. What a pity. Neizan didn't care about the authenticity of Cheng Mo and Athena's identities at all.
After agreeing to help find someone, Anezan expressed the difficulty appropriately, saying that the name "Ahmadi Stanger" is too common and common, and there are 8 to [-] people in the entire refugee camp. All the information is in Damascus, and it is not so easy to find him.
Cheng Mo guessed that Anezan wanted to claim credit, and he recalled Khalid's behavior of giving money to people when he passed the checkpoint. He secretly thought that Feier was a kind person, but Anezan might not be.He tentatively stuffed some euros into Anezan, saying that he was cheering for Anezan. Anezan did not refuse at all, and put the money in his pocket calmly, and immediately gave Cheng Mo three ways to find "Ahmai" Di Stanger" way.
"Mr. Xie, the quickest way is to broadcast to find someone. We can go to the minaret of the temple and ask the announcer to broadcast the broadcast; if you don't want that person named Ahmadi Stanger to know that you are looking for him , then I can also call the camp leaders of each battalion and let the camp leaders search for them secretly. Of course, this method is slower; there is another method that is slightly faster, but it is more troublesome. We will go to the refugee agency in Damascus to check immediately. All the information is there."
Seeing that there is a way to go directly to Damascus, Cheng Mo naturally would not miss it, and said confidently: "We don't want to startle the snake, it's best to go to the refugee agency in Damascus to check."
"Okay, then shall we go now?" Anezan agreed without hesitation.
Cheng Mo nodded.
Anezan smiled humbly, pointed at the gate of the refugee camp, and said to an old silver 307 sign parked on the side of the road: "Those two wait a moment, I will drive in, the car is not very good, please Don't be offended."
Cheng Mo glanced at the silver car covered in scratches and paint patches, and said with a smile, "It's okay."
Anezan said, "Wait a moment", then trotted towards the gate with his clumsy body twisting, his back like a fat mole.
Cheng Mo withdrew his gaze from Anezan, and turned to look at Athena beside him.Faint mist floats among the rows of iron houses, and those black iron houses are like silent boulders lurking in a long history.There are still a few white stars lingering in the sky, they are the last stubbornness of the night, stubbornly nailed above the fading sky.The morning light entered the arena blazingly, and they smudged the junction of the sky and the earth into layers of gradient colors, launching the final charge towards the dark night.
The overlapping of day and night reflects the deep profile of Athena, which immediately presents a film texture, rough, vast, desolate, and beautiful.
The picture was so beautiful that Cheng Mo lost his mind. He couldn't help thinking of the classic scene in "Titanic". The huge ship was driving on the vast waves, the sunset glowed the sea and the sky, and Jack and Rose stood at the bow. , like a bird that never settles.The picture in the movie is completely different from this moment, but the strong and magnificent colors are equally magnificent.
The hazy glow reflected in Athena's pupils, like a beautiful movie scene.
He felt that if he was a photographer, he would be glad that Athena didn't take off the mask covering her face.At this time, the flickering light and shadow in the dim match perfectly with her vague silhouette hidden in the dark.If Athena showed her true face, it would be out of season, her beauty is too destructive, fiercer than the sun, and everything in the world will be eclipsed.
Just like Venus with broken arms, the hands had to be cut off because they were too perfect, otherwise others would not be able to appreciate the beauty of this sculpture.
The appearance of Athena holding the sword of Perseus jumped out of his mind again, exuding unconquerable charm all over her body, which is probably the reason why she let men like Napoleon go forward.
Athena noticed Cheng Mo's focused gaze, but she didn't say anything, letting Cheng Mo appreciate it.
Cheng Mo sighed in his heart, he knew what he was about to miss, he knew very well that he had made a completely wrong decision, he felt regretful about it, but at the same time felt relieved.He looked up at the blue sky of the deep sea, listening to the slight wind in his ears, as if he was listening to the singing of the woman he might lose forever.
He forgot the provocative lines that he had thought of long ago, and said calmly: "I won't go to Damascus with you later." He paused, and said softly, "Let's say goodbye now!"
Athena didn't speak, she watched Anezan staggeringly towards the silver sign 307 indifferently. There was a faint mist in the small town in the early morning, and there were occasional vehicles passing by on the road not far away, and the noise of tires was coming. This morning is extraordinarily clear, like the sound of a loud radio signal.
Some people can search for his channel, some people can't.Some people can solve his math problems, some people can't.
Cheng Mo forced himself to smile for a while, he felt that smiling is really a good thing to relieve embarrassment, he fixed the smile on the corner of his lips, and said to himself: "I owe you three Uroboros, you can go to UBS Pick it up at the Paris branch on Avenue Montaigne. The key is in the hands of one of my subordinates. His name is Nicholas, his phone number is 06 XX XX XX 91, and his password is 97XXXXXXXX. There are four Ouroboros in it, and the extra one is considered interest. He put his hands in his pockets, and said awkwardly for the first time, "I don't know what skills you have in the Ouroboros you borrowed from me. I can make up some money for you, mine."
"I don't need interest." Athena interrupted Cheng Mo's narration and said lightly.
The sound of the engine starting was heard by the side of the road, and thick white gas floated from the exhaust pipe with the silver logo. It shook twice like a brown bear climbing ashore from the lake, and then retreated more than ten meters away. Zizi turned the car around flexibly and drove towards Cheng Mo and Athena who were standing inside the refugee camp.
The sound of "sand, sand, sand" from the tires rolling on the gravel was like a huge hourglass counting down the time with quicksand.
"Then what do you need?" Cheng Mo asked, he felt that his heart was heavier than the ground under his feet, and he didn't know if it was because of the unpredictable future, or because of the imminent parting, or because he took the initiative to hurt again athena.He felt the constriction of blood vessels and the spasm of nerves, and the pain spread all over his body, so that he didn't want time to continue to pass.But the endless rustling sound and approaching headlights kept reminding him that he was heading towards an ending that he could not control.
"I don't need anything."
As she said, her tone was colder than the morning wind on the Gobi, making the travelers who had no destination shiver.
"You always need this." Cheng Mo took off the backpack on his shoulders and handed it to Athena.He had already entered a state of numbness, he didn't know what to say, the words and sentences he had thought up before were soaked by the heavy rain in his mind, blurred to the point of being unrecognizable.He finally discovered that the source of his pain was the irreparable harm to Athena.I have trampled on this hard-won friendship again and again, no matter it is friendship, or some kind of affection that is deeper than friendship.At first, he deliberately longed for the establishment of such a close relationship between the two of them, but now he loathes himself for using shrewdness and cunning to establish such a close relationship.
He proved that Athena also has a mortal side, and also proved that he is just an extremely ordinary mortal, who will lose his rationality and choose to be emotional, like a hopeless gambler.
Cheng Mo feels that the direction of life is really unpredictable. He thinks that he is such a selfish egoist who always puts himself first and will never understand the meaning of dedication and dedication. Now he is violating the principle and wants to try without hesitation To be a hero.
The silver logo car stopped in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, Anezan pressed the window and said loudly: "Mr. Xie, get in the car!"
"My colleague Wendy is going to Damascus with you, and I will stay here to guard." Cheng Mo said, and he handed the backpack in his hand closer to Athena again.
Athena reached up and grabbed the shoulder straps of the backpack.
Cheng Mo didn't let go of his hand immediately, he didn't dare to look at Athena, his right hand trembled unconsciously, he quickly let go of his hand, thinking that he was going to grab something, waved it in the void, but didn't take it back immediately.
"No problem, then you can wait here, you can sit in my office, or go to Fayle's house"
In the noisy response of Anezan, Athena walked towards the old Peugeot car with her backpack, she walked down the cement corridor and stepped on the gravel road.She walked neither fast nor slow, and the newly emerged sun cast a ray of warm light on her hairline and shoulders.
Cheng Mo heard the sound of the hourglass breaking.He couldn't tell if it was love or something else.No matter what kind of feelings it is, he doesn't want to destroy the friendship with Athena at all. He refuses the approach of desire, and is also afraid of the arrival of love.He felt that he should try to remedy it more or less, so he said with a smile: "We will meet again, maybe in a short time, I will contact you and ask you to take me to the Garden of Eden, when the time comes."
Athena ignored him, she opened the car door, bowed into the car, closed the door gently, and isolated Cheng Mo from the car.
Cheng Mo closed his mouth, but his expression was hesitant to speak.
Anezan waved his hand at Chengmo, "Mr. Naxie, we are leaving for the UNHCR now."
Cheng Mo knew that this was his last chance to stay, he felt his heart beating faster, and he knew what it meant to him that the only reliable Athena left.He also knew how much danger Athena would face if Athena was left behind.He'd already ruined one girl he loved because of his ego, and now he couldn't ruin another.
"Maybe loneliness is my destiny." Cheng Mo thought to himself, he raised his hand, smiled with all his strength, and said to Anezan: "Let's go!"
Anezan waved.
Athena sat in the back seat, solidified like an immortal sculpture.
The silver logo moved slowly, the tires rolled over the gravel, and he watched Athena's profile, on the other side of the glass window.He felt that he was the one who left, sitting in the small sampan, far away from a fertile and lonely island.He saw Athena's eyes deeper than Xingxuan's in the rearview mirror, and the distant attraction made him hold his breath involuntarily.
He couldn't help but walked down the concrete steps and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't make any sound, just staring at the nothingness in the rearview mirror.He saw her breathtaking eyes turned to the other side in the burning sun, avoiding meeting his gaze, as if blaming him for his capriciousness, and seeming to mock him for being a coward who is afraid of commitment.
The sign 307 drove out of the simple gate of the refugee camp in the sunlight, and it turned an extremely long turn in the silent gilt mist, heading for the road in the distance.
Cheng Mo saw the slow-motion montage, as if he was witnessing the end of a tragedy.
-----------------------
Cheng Mo watched Athena leave with a blank face, thinking: This is a bad start, before I figured out who the enemy is, I sent away the most powerful helper, I didn't expect Cheng Mo to be like this A day of dedication?It's not considered a dedication, you already owe so much to others, how can you still have the nerve to trick them into being a good person with you?
"It seems that you are not so bad that there is no cure!" Cheng Mo imitated his wife's tone and talked to himself. He walked down the concrete steps and walked towards the gate of the refugee camp.It's only past 08:30, Fayle won't get off work until [-]:[-], and Fayle is still in the duty room at this time.
In the early morning, the refugee camp began to recover, and those slight sounds, like pulses, lurked in every corner of the densely packed iron houses.There were sporadic Syrians coming in and out at the gate, some with farm tools, and some with clay pots on their heads.When they saw Cheng Mo, they would all cast surprised glances, but it wasn't like when Cheng Mo was pretending to be a white man, his eyes were either filled with hatred or disgust.When they faced Cheng Mo, a Chinese man, their eyes were full of kindness, and when they looked at Cheng Mo, they would even smile actively.
This is called Cheng Mo's mixed tastes. To him, these smiles are meaningless, and he doesn't care at all.However, he knew that this was the world Xie Minyun wanted, a world where there were only smiles everywhere and no wars.
Cheng Mo also tried to respond with a smile, but he could only sigh bitterly in his heart: "Xie Xiaojin, the questions you gave me are really difficult! How can I save the queer people and Khalid's family?" Cheng Mo Mo felt that he had no clue, and his strength was not directly proportional to the opponent, "We can only find Stanger first, and the best way is to break through from the enemy. Anyway, it is not the first time I have done such a thing as self-inflicted snares." , the greater the risk, the greater the reward, at least Khalid’s family can be rescued first. But this is also the worst way. Time is running out, and it seems that I have no other choice.”
It’s not difficult to find Querd’s undercover Stanger, even if there are no officials from the UNHCR. If the other party wants to be an undercover agent, he must have held a moderate position in the refugee camp. Just call Fayle to ask someone Ask, and you might be able to find out.The reason why I didn't tell Anezan, an official of the UNHCR, is because since Anezan can take them away directly, there is no need to do anything extra.
Walking to the duty room on the right side of the gate, Cheng Mo did not see Fayer, but another young Saudi with curly hair and wearing a camouflage uniform.The two looked at each other, both a little surprised, but the other's surprise was written on his face, while Cheng Mo's surprise was hidden in his heart.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have forgotten to speak, Cheng Mo took the initiative to ask in Saudi: "Where is Fayer?"
"Oh! Fayle, he has something to do." The other party came back to his senses and stared at Cheng Mo's face. His facial muscles were tense, as if he was wary of something.
Cheng Mo looked down at the table, there was nothing on the table, and the curly-haired hands were also placed under the table, not on the table, and the other party did not ask who he was, but honestly He answered Cheng Mo's inquiry, which allowed him to grasp the opening.So he secretly sacrificed the "Seven Sins", pretending to be nonchalant and asked: "Stanger told you to stay here, right?"
Curly's eyebrows twitched in shock from Cheng Mo's sudden words, and his arm shook violently, almost raising the pistol hidden under the table, but in the end Curly managed to stabilize his mind and spoke extremely fast Justification: "I don't know what you're talking about. Fayle he'll be right back, you can wait here"
"Heller is here, take me to find them." Cheng Mo turned his head and looked at the road in the distance, the traffic began to rush, and in a trance, he saw the silver logo 307 speeding past, he turned his head He whispered to the surprised Curly, "I am the one you are looking for."
-------------------------
Cheng Mo was sandwiched by Curly Hair and another Querd man one after the other, and came to the innermost row of simple houses in the refugee camp. There was only a fence between the wheat field and the field, and there were green wheat fields outside the fence. , from the perspective of the terrain, it is undoubtedly the best escape position.
The sun has not completely jumped out of the horizon, and the simple tin houses are hidden in the shadows. The cold wind blows through the eaves, making the tin roofs rattle.
The three of them walked to the middle room, and before knocking on the door, the other party opened the door ahead of time, probably because there were spies ahead and saw them coming.Before Cheng Mo entered the house, he clearly heard the sound of pulling the bolt of the gun. When he was pushed into the dark and narrow iron house by the people behind him, several guns were raised and pointed at his head.
Cheng Mo raised his hand and took a quick glance. There were four Saudis in camouflage uniforms standing at the four corners of the room. A one-eyed Saudi stood in the middle of the living room. Fayer was firmly tied a chair.He held his breath and heard that there were still several people hiding in the room.
Everyone was surprised to see Cheng Mo come in, including Fayer, who was sweating profusely and wanted to say something, but his mouth was tightly strangled by the rope, and he could only spit out sentences with unknown meanings from his throat.
One-eyed looked at Cheng Mo, then looked at Curly Hair, asked something in Syriac, and Curly Hair stammered.
Although Cheng Mo couldn't quite understand their conversation, he could roughly guess that Cyclops should be asking why Mao brought a Chinese man over.He didn't want to waste time, so he yelled directly to the room with the closed door: "Heller, come out! I'm Rektska."
The door of the room was pushed open in an instant, and Heller walked out of the room. Her eyes searched around the room, and finally locked on Cheng Mo. After looking up and down, she asked in shock: "Are you Lake?" Zika? Are you not a German? A Chinese?”
"That's right." Cheng Mo put down his hand.
Instead, Heller raised his gun and said in a cold voice, "Hands up!"
Cheng Mo looked at the cold muzzle of the gun and raised his hand again.
"Don't move your hands. I know you have a lightsaber. But you can't be faster than the guns of the seven of us." Heller said loudly, "Everyone be careful, he is the one I said."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, even the one-eyed man who was standing in the middle moved aside, took out a pistol and pointed it at Cheng Mo.
Cheng Mo said calmly: "Since I came here on my own initiative, I just want to solve the problem, not to provoke a fight."
"As long as we catch you, we can solve the problem. Uncle Tamer said, as long as we catch you, we Querds will be saved."
Cheng Mo said lightly: "Maybe we have a better solution?"
"A better solution? When you cheat Khalid's cell phone with a broken watch! There is no trace of friendship between us! Mr. Reketska, I have begged you hard, but How did you tell me?" Heller said with excitement, "'What you have to learn from your father is not how to face fear, but never beg for mercy.'" Poor The girl said viciously, "Are you begging for my mercy now?"
Khalid's handsome profile appeared beside the door. He had a gloomy face, gnashing his teeth and staring at Cheng Mo's eyes. There was hatred and disappointment in those eyes.
Cheng Mo turned a blind eye, and he still said indifferently: "I mean cooperation, I didn't leave, I just wanted to help you queer people and Khaled."
"I don't need your help right now. I'm on our own." Heller said coldly, "Uncle Stanger, you have to tie up that cunning fox with wire. You have to tie it up firmly."
Cheng Mo turned his head to watch the one-eyed approach slowly, and said expressionlessly, "Can you let Mr. Fayle go first?"
One Eye hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Heller.
Heller gritted his teeth and said, "We are not as bad as you! We will not sacrifice innocent people!"
Cheng Mo thought about everything in his heart, but decided to wait for the time being and let Heller arrest him in exchange for the safety of the Querds and Khalid's family.He put his hand in front of the one-eyed Stanger, and said calmly, "Tie it up."
(I originally wanted to finish writing Syria and then update it, but I really underestimated my hydrological ability, and I still have [-] words to save, but I am not very satisfied with the plot, and I will update it after I think it through.)
(End of this chapter)
(BGM——"At The Place Where You Call" electric guitar version, Wang Yiyun recommends the version played by Xiaobo or Liu Linfeng)
Cheng Mo never thought that Xie Minyun would smile so brightly, that iceberg-like girl would smile brighter than the summer sun.
The smile shone in his pupils, so golden that he could hardly open his eyes, and the burning sensation even stimulated him to resist with tears.This dazzling light even penetrated his skin, like warm alcohol dissolved in his blood, surging and boiling in his blood vessels, sweeping through the main stream and ends, impacting his brain and soul.
Cheng Mo didn't feel the severe pain, he just felt that he was not standing in a refugee camp on the outskirts of Damascus at this moment, but standing in the cold and endless Wangchuan River, letting the muddy river wash away His body, sculpted with ailments and wrinkles.
The world has no mercy for him, and the darkness of the long night has no bounds.
However, when he raised his head inadvertently, he found an indelible light shining right above his head.In fact, Xie Minyun is always there, illuminating every moment of his loneliness.
But as her husband, what has he given her?
Not only did he fail to protect her, but he was always protected by her secret and distant tenderness. Even though she was far away from the hustle and bustle, she still projected love on him in an incredible way, protecting him and warming him.
Cheng Mo suddenly felt that those sweet memories mixed in the long river of time were like sharp knives, they passed through his body, forcibly taking away half of the meaning of his life.
A few tears blurred his vision, and he looked at Xie Minyun in the misty halo, as if separated by a galaxy far away.
A strong sense of loneliness and frustration surged out from the hollow in his heart, and his thoughts could only drift with the flow. He seemed to have returned to the time when he was sinking into the long and tedious self-enclosed day after day.
In retrospect, he can be regarded as precocious, but he has always been indifferent to those romantic novels and TV series. When he was in elementary school, his female classmates were watching "Full House", "Mischievous Kiss", "Legend of Sword and Fairy" , The stationery store is full of posters of idol stars, and the female students flock to them.
At that time, he fully realized that such a thing as "love" must only be related to handsome men and beautiful women, and it is impossible to have half a dime relationship with bean sprouts like him who are weak, sick and have no specialties.
It may be because Cheng Mo kept hypnotizing himself, or it may be the weight of heart disease that made him a maverick weirdo.It's just that young Muai is an irresistible human instinct, no matter how firm Cheng Mo is, as he grows older, he will inevitably have vague expectations for the opposite sex in his heart.
However, unlike other teenagers, he feels that his cognition of love is closer to the essence, so he has always maintained a critical attitude towards those plots where love is shocking. What kind of drama do you like, if it is a girl who likes "Meteor Garden", "Tiny Times" or "The Heirs" and other Cinderella variant dramas, there are nine out of ten. I don't agree with him.
And those TV dramas that are too realistic, such as "Snail House", "The Era of Naked Marriage", etc., he also doesn't like, especially those dramas that entangle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Cheng Mo hates them even more.
As for the classics "Dream of Red Mansions", "Gone with the Wind", "Anna Karenina", and "The Great Gatsby", etc., he will read them, but he always thinks that love in turbulent times does not have much reference value, and the point of view of these books is not love itself.It is about the relationship between man and the world, and the uncontrollable personal destiny in the torrent of the times.
If anything, his favorite love story is a cartoon.And this manga is neither a sci-fi flirtatious bible-"Young pig-headed boy will not dream of a bunny girl senior", nor is it an anti-routine school full of sophomores-"My Youth Love Story Really Has a Problem" ", not to mention "The Flower of Evil", which is regarded as the standard by young literary and artistic youth.
It's an ancient anime from the Showa period - "A Moment of Gathering".
This comic tells an extremely ordinary love story. The content of the story is too ordinary. There is no parting, no amnesia in a car accident, and no real sadomasochism. From the beginning to the end, the love trajectory of the hero and heroine is very different Clear, although there are some entanglements and hesitation in the middle, those hesitation and entanglement are not deliberate at all, they are very realistic and realistic problems.Generally speaking, this is a comic that tells the story of warm feelings between ordinary people.
The male protagonist of the story is a naive and not-so-rich re-examination fifth generation, while the female protagonist is a young, bright and beautiful widow Otono Kyoko.
In the Showa era when the themes of doomsday and saving the earth prevailed, the male protagonists were all Ultraman ("Ultraman"), Astro Boy ("Astro Boy"), Monkey King ("Dragon Ball"), and Seiya ("Dragon Ball"). An iron-blooded man like Saint Seiya) and an indecisive central air conditioner like the fifth generation are still rare. Although everyone is tired of seeing such a Japanese-style male protagonist now, at that time, the fifth generation was still groundbreaking. .
From the beginning to the end, Cheng Mo didn't have much affection for the fifth generation. He only liked Otonashi Kyoko, and he had no resistance to such a gentle, kind and a little wayward young mature woman like Kyoko.
In his heart, Otonashi Kyoko was really beautiful.
In the present, it is impossible to become a heroine with an identity like a widow. Not to mention that Otonashi Kyouko is far from the popular template heroines nowadays. Apart from the general advantage of being beautiful, it can be said that she is full of bad things. point.She doesn't have any great abilities, she doesn't have a rich background, and she doesn't have a deep affection for the hero, and she is even a widow who has been married once.
There are no earth-shattering events or incredible reversals in the plot that attracts Chengmo. They are all trivial frictions that often appear in life, and there are some jealousy caused by personality factors. All emotions are accumulated in some minutiae of life middle.
For example, Otonashi Kyouko watched Godai leave home in the morning, and patiently waited for him to return at night.Apart from a tie, the gift for the fifth generation is the bento carefully prepared every day.
In fact, Xiangzi's gentle protection is everywhere, in the heavy rain at the station, in the night after drunkenness, in every smiling morning, and in every dusk when waiting for the return of the five generations.
For a young man like Cheng Mo, there is probably no more realistic tenderness than this.
And an angel like Xie Minyun who drew his sword to protect him is the fantasy of little boys, and it is too far away from reality.
Although Cheng Mo was only in junior high school when he watched "A Moment of Gathering", he had an old heart. He was not interested in little girls, so he would naturally have more affection for mature women, such as Mr. Shen and Instructor Bai.
There is no doubt that a girl like Xie Minyun is not Cheng Mo's ideal type, so at first he didn't think that anything would happen between him and Xie Minyun until he experienced the ups and downs of the trip to Europe.
That trip, which was supposed to be an ordinary trip, completely broke Cheng Mo's understanding of the world, and also changed the relationship between him and Xie Minyun.Cheng Mo never imagined that he would be the hero in an adventure story, nor did he think that a touching love story would happen to a boring person like him.
However, the development of the plot is very similar to the plot in a nine-rate love novel. After the ordinary male protagonist shares hardships with the noble lady, he develops an unswerving relationship until death, just like the character in "Titanic". Same.
If it is according to the comedy process, the next step is that they broke the shackles of class together and walked together bravely, like the heroes and heroines in fairy tales getting married and having children.
If it is according to the tragedy process, then Xie Minyun or he should be buried under the eternal frozen soil of Siberia. After many years, he or she will revisit the old place with his children and place a bouquet in front of the tombstone on the shore of Lake Baikal. flowers.
What is even more tragic is that they all went back alive, but they failed to survive the obstacles of time and reality. One married and became a wife, and the other married a new lover.Or the tragedy is even more bloody. As a phoenix man who cheated on Mr. Shen, he staged a realistic version of "The Temptation of Going Home". Presumably such a plot of Bai Xue is also popular.
But the development of things is beyond Cheng Mo's imagination.When he returned to Star City from Ennos, he always felt that the possibility of the two people gradually disappearing into each other's world was relatively high. He was always very rational and knew that the gap between Xie Minyun's family and his family was too great. Besides, He is not the kind of person who is keen on dreaming and can persevere. He never breaks the boat, and he has always been able to give up sunk costs decisively.Even though Xie Minyun hung the two people's names all over the trees in Yuelu Mountain, Cheng Mo was moved and moved, but he was still not optimistic about the future of himself and Xie Minyun.
To be honest, he felt at that time that if Shen Youyi was not his teacher, Shen Youyi would be the most suitable spouse for him. In fact, even Bai Xiuxiu was more in line with his preference than Xie Minyun.In fact, after something that shouldn't have happened with Shen Youyi, he decided not to marry for the rest of his life, and if he didn't promise marriage to anyone, he wouldn't break his promise to anyone.
Reality is often stranger than fiction. He never thought that Xie Minyun would have the courage to marry him directly. Cheng Mo knew what this meant to him. As a rational and realistic chosen one, he knew very well that he should not refuse. There is no reason to reject such a perfect ending to the story.
It's just that he didn't expect that this is not the end, but just the beginning.
He thought he was just a small person far away from the turbulent era, but now he discovered that he was one of the protagonists of the turbulent era.He thought his story was a fairy tale about a princess and a poor boy that no top-level screenwriter would bother to write, but now he realized that his experience was a common suffering of all human beings that only appeared in great novels.
If there is peace in the world, he and Xie Minyun should be graduating right now, and they can live together in a legitimate way. Not to mention that he only wants to be a librarian, even if he really wants to build a library in space, it is not unattainable dream.
Xie Minyun is a perfect girl, and she will definitely be a perfect wife. They share similar interests and personalities, and their lives will be sweet, happy and colorful.He clearly remembered what Xie Minyun said to him in the elevator. They lived in a small town full of auroras, where there were few people, long winters and short summers.In summer, he took his children to the forest to pick fresh wild fruits and mushrooms, while she drove to the town to buy some necessities, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.They planted vegetables and fruits in the yard. When the sun went down, they made a fire and cooked together, and the two children played in the yard.
All these ordinary and beautiful things that are within reach are now a mirror image.
He thought of that great but obscure book - "One Hundred Years of Solitude". Shen Youyi once gave a lecture on the Internet, specifically talking about this novel with grand metaphors.In Shen Youyi's narration, the hopeless struggle and demise of the Buendia family generation after generation is the true reflection of human society.Like the Buendia family, human beings continue to repeat the same mistakes in the spiral, just like the "Ouroboros", which symbolizes the self-devouring circle of fate.
Marquez extracted the commonality of human history and integrated it into the lines of "One Hundred Years of Solitude".
The era and history are too vast, and the power of individuals is simply not worth mentioning.
Just like Colonel Buendia, no matter how good he was at war and how powerful he was, he could only immerse himself in the loneliness of making small goldfish in his later years; Rebecca, who was strong against fate, lost her husband Closed in the house and eating soil alone until death; as the only person who has insight into the lonely fate of the Buendia family, Amaranta weaves her own shroud day after day, waiting for the god of death; and the most simple and true Meme , after a brief love, spent the rest of her life in a remote monastery.
Except for the members of the Buendia family who died unexpectedly, they could not escape the companionship of loneliness and ended their life in self-enclosure. Loneliness and isolation are the inescapable endings of life.When you are too old to change and can't do anything about the future, the only seemingly feasible way is to seek solace in the past, in the repetitive labor, in the same every day, to anesthetize yourself in a daze.
Is it not the case in human society?
"Hegemony has no eternity".
All contradictions and conflicts arise because of this, and the times are always developing. Not only people will age, but the country will also age.Wealth cannot stay in the pockets of one person or one country forever. When cracks appear in the solid throne of interests, the hegemony will be shaken. Some people will want to consolidate it, while others will want to fight for it. The cycle goes on and on forever.
This sense of powerlessness is not only an inescapable fate for everyone, but also an inescapable fate for the entire human society.
Each of us is closely related to this world. We can't be alone, but we can't change it.
As the bookstore owner wrote: The past is all fake, memory is a road with no return, and all the past springs cannot be recovered.
More than 100 years of loneliness.
Loneliness is eternal.
"There really is no greater fable than this." Cheng Mo thought to himself, he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the melody of Xie Minyun's singing, and her indifferent and warm voice was rippling in his blank mind, like wandering in the middle of the night The nocturne played by the waves.
"A crying face will turn into a beautiful smile one day
I want to shed the tears of this moment
share with everyone in the world
do it gently
constantly fighting each other, hurting each other
Humans are fragile creatures
But I still believe in the power of love
must still exist"
During the singing, Cheng Mo remembered the plot of the last episode of "The Moment Together". Otono Kyouko, who was addicted to missing her lover, finally came out of her loneliness. That's great~"
Cheng Mo heard Otonashi Kyouko's inner voice: Love is the only way to overcome loneliness.
On October 2020, 10, a girl asked him: "I put on a citrus-flavored lip balm today, do you want to try it?"
They hugged and kissed on the snow and under the aurora, resisting loneliness with love.
She asked, "Is it sweet enough?"
He replied: "The sweetness is enough, but the weight seems to be much worse."
She said: "I will pay you back for the rest of my life, and tomorrow we will go to get a marriage certificate."
At that time, he thought to himself, how can a person promise such a long-term thing, and he didn't take her seriousness seriously, because he felt that there was no way to promise such a thing as love.
Of course he was wrong, very wrong.
She didn't break her promise, she really used it all her life.
It's just that her life is too short.
It was so short that he didn't have time to carefully arrange a confession and farewell ceremony, and he couldn't tell her metaphors about love and happiness, and he couldn't even be the ending of life and stories with her.
Don't be too surprised, there are always unexpected goodbyes in the world, and sudden departures. The amount of tears is limited. It is better to cut out the memory and treasure it, and respond to the parting with a smile.
So Cheng Mo smiled.
He stared at Xie Minyun in the photo and thought: "How can I be in pain? I shouldn't cry, I am a very cool boy in Xie Xiaojin's heart."
He seemed to hear her say to him: "No, not very cool, you are the coolest one."
————————————————————————
"Mr. Xie? Mr. Xie"
Feier waved his hand in front of Cheng Mo's eyes several times before Cheng Mo recovered from the vortex of memory. He pretended to be inadvertent and wiped his forehead with his elbow, taking the opportunity to wipe away his tears.Then he put down his hand and turned to smile at Fayle. His smile is now very natural, not as stiff as before, as if someone pushed his cheek. "Sorry, I didn't expect to see pictures of such a beautiful Chinese girl here, so I was a little surprised."
Under the dim light, Fail didn't see the teardrops flashing in the corner of Cheng Mo's eyes just now, his attention was instantly shifted to the photo by Cheng Mo, he looked at the photo of Xie Minyun, and said proudly: " She is more than beautiful! Miss Xie is like an angel!"
Cheng Mo said softly, "Yes! She is an angel."
"By the way! Your Chinese pronunciation is the same. Is it the same surname?"
Cheng Mo didn't expect to encounter such an incredible coincidence. He just lied about his surname "Xie" at the gate just now. Fortunately, this is not a flaw. He nodded and said, "It is indeed a surname."
"Do you know her?" Fayle was a little excited.
Cheng Mo shook his head heavily, "I don't know each other. There are many people with the surname Xie in China. Although this surname is not as common as Mohammed in the Middle East, it is not rare."
Fayle showed regret, "You were so serious just now, I thought you knew Miss Xie!"
Cheng Mo stared at the slightly yellowed photo and said, "I think... people who can know her will be very happy."
"You're right, if it wasn't for her, our family wouldn't know where we were wandering."
Feier was deeply moved, but Cheng Mo thought: Without her, I am still wandering.
Of course, Feier couldn't tell what Cheng Mo was thinking. Seeing that he didn't speak, he turned his head to look in the direction of the room, and shouted loudly, "Wife, are you up?"
"Get up, get up."
A middle-aged woman in the traditional dress of Suria opened the cloth curtain and came out of the room. Her face was not covered with a scarf, but she was wrapped in a beautiful Amila turban and cheap red on her lips. Lipstick, it's not like she was woken up by an inexplicable guest early in the morning, but she is preparing to participate in a grand festival.
Fayle waved his hand and said loudly, "Hurry up and make some food for the two distinguished guests, and squeeze two cups of date palm juice."
Cheng Mo said quickly, "Don't bother."
Feier shook his head and said, "No trouble, no trouble." He turned to his wife and said, "Go, I remember that there were pastries brought back from Damascus by Midani yesterday."
Feier's wife greeted Cheng Mo and Athena with a smile, then turned and walked into the dark kitchen.
Cheng Mo also smiled. In other countries, this may not seem enthusiastic enough, but in Syria, unless relatives and friends come, the owner's wife will not come out at all. Fayer asked his wife to meet for only ten minutes. The strangers have expressed enough enthusiasm.
All this is because of his identity as a Chinese, or more directly because of Xie Minyun.Cheng Mo had never felt such warmth from a stranger's kindness.
After the lights in the kitchen came on, Fayle pointed to the old fabric sofa on the edge of the small living room and said, "Sit down for a while, date palm juice and breakfast need to wait."
Cheng Mo greeted Athena to sit on the sofa, and pretended to ask casually: "Why is there a picture of a Chinese girl in your house?"
"It's not just our family. In our refugee camp, as long as the children have taken pictures with Miss Xie, they will put the pictures on it."
"why?"
"To be honest, I don't know why, but everyone just did it by coincidence. Maybe it's because we have never seen such a sincere, kind and beautiful girl." Fayle turned to look at the photo, and Looking at the child holding the handrail, "She is an angel sent by the Creator to walk on the earth"
Cheng Mo remembered that Nuwa once asked him if he really knew Xie Minyun, and told him that Xie Minyun had donated money to build schools and refugee camps in Africa and the Middle East. It is sincerely doing charity and wants to do something for the world.But it doesn't make much sense from a personal level. You must know that even if a certain country wants to change another country, it is not so easy.If Xie Minyun just wants to do this personally, it is tantamount to doing useless work, and he feels that she can't change anything.
The facts seem to be as he expected. Several years have passed, these places are still in dire straits, and those displaced people are still struggling with poverty and hunger.
Cheng Mo asked: "Did she donate money to build this refugee camp?"
"It's not just building a few refugee camps. Ms. Xie also built our only school next to Duma Town." After a pause, Feier's tone became ashamed, "When she first came, we treated her too much. There is a misunderstanding, thinking that she is just like those Westerners who come to show, just take a few photos, and then donate money to those bureaucrats and then leave. But she is completely different from what we think, she not only donated money, passed She came back three months later. Seeing that the school had only laid the foundation, she lost her temper with the officials in Duma Town. The bureaucrats tried to explain everything, but they couldn't stop Ms. Xie from personally supervising the progress of the project the next day. Probably It was because the construction team invited by the UNHCR was too slow, so she ran over and organized us homeless refugees gathered on the edge of the town to help repair the house. Of course we ignored her at first, until she said that she would pay a certain amount. Salary. At that time, the officials in Duma Town advised her not to do this, as it would only bring her troubles. She didn’t believe it, and insisted on hiring us refugees to work, and I was one of them.”
"Is it because after you went to work, you made trouble again and asked for a raise?" Cheng Mo said.
Fayle laughed. "Dignity! Morality! That doesn't exist in the refugee world."
Cheng Mo nodded, "I can understand."
"In the beginning, we just joined forces to slow down the construction period. Later, we found that Ms. Xie was really easy to talk to, so I recommended a representative to negotiate with Ms. Xie and asked for lunch and dinner. Although the food supply was very tight at that time, Ms. Xie agreed immediately, and immediately They brought us milk and bread. But we didn’t remember Ms. Xie at all. Instead, we felt that she was a bully, and immediately intensified and asked for a salary increase. We selected some representatives to negotiate with Ms. Xie, and I was also recommended one of the representatives"
"I guess she will agree to give you a salary increase, but she will set you a daily schedule that must be completed."
"Haha!" Fayle laughed, "You Chinese people understand Chinese people. Miss Xie really told us so, and we agreed. But after we finish our work every day, we will sneak back at night to finish the day. Sometimes the demolition is so fierce that the whole day is worthless. Anyway, we are paid every day, and we are not afraid of what a little Chinese girl will do to us. I don’t know that Miss Xie knew us from the beginning. What I did was only found out later. In short, one night, we were caught by her, but she did not blame us, but told us sincerely that this is a school built for our children. This place not only allows our children to study for free, but also provides them with free meals. She can’t stay here for a long time. If she can’t finish it within the construction period, she can only leave. If the school is not repaired by then, follow-up All the work, probably just stop. I remember very well, she told us."
The two children standing by the sofa spoke first: "Only knowledge can change destiny."
Fayle raised his hand and touched the child's head, "Yes, she said that knowledge can change destiny. If we don't want our descendants to be homeless like this, we have to let them read more books. She also found The old imam, the bedridden old imam recovered miraculously. The old imam said that this school is the only chance if we don’t want our children to be like us and have to rely on the pity of others to survive. We discussed After a long time, even if we didn’t believe in Ms. Xie, we still believed in the respected old imam. Later, we completed the work on time and according to the quantity, but because we were delayed for too long, seeing that the construction period was approaching, it was still a bit short of the completion of the project. Far."
Seeing that Feier stopped deliberately, Cheng Mo curled the corners of his mouth and made a smiling expression, "No need to whet your appetite, I know she will definitely help you."
"It's a bit blunt." Fayle smiled, "Miss Xie works with us personally every day, we didn't expect that a young lady like Didi can do rough work better than us, no matter how we are men, of course we can't admit defeat. Probably because of God's help, we finally finished repairing the school the day before the construction deadline, but no one thought that Miss Xie's troubles had just begun."
Feier described Xie Minyun's charitable deeds in detail, how she persuaded the refugees to send girls to the school after the school was built; she said that she started building a refugee camp to solve the problem of refugees going to school to steal food; She said that in order for the refugees in the refugee camp to have a livelihood, she not only helped plan the mutual aid organization, but also sent seeds and agricultural tools. Now the large wheat field in the east was planted by these refugees hard and belongs to them. property of refugees.
Cheng Mo listened with gusto. Although Fayer's words were dry, Cheng Mo could feel Xie Minyun's comfort and satisfaction from those simple words.Cheng Mo knows that Xie Minyun has never been a person who only lives for herself, and there is a great love in her heart that Cheng Mo cannot understand.
It wasn't until Feier's wife brought the burritos, pastries and date palm juice that Feier stopped talking, and made a gesture of invitation to Chengmo and Athena and said, "Eat something first."
Cheng Mo heard the sound of swallowing saliva, he turned his head to look at the two children who were drooling over the pastry, and said, "You guys eat."
"They have it." Fayle turned to look at the two children, "Go to the kitchen and go to Mommy's to eat."
The two children immediately turned around and rushed into the kitchen. They probably saw some delicious food that they couldn't usually see, and they shouted happily in it.But the laughter was not loud at all, it was as clear as a silver bell, and it sounded very pleasant.
Feier pushed the plate with pastries, burritos, yogurt and a few slices of bacon on the table in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I only have these things at home, please don't hold them back."
Cheng Mo heard the thin sound of water in Feier's tone of voice, probably swallowing his saliva. He had spent a long time in a refugee camp in Athens, and he knew what such a breakfast meant to refugees. He took out the food prepared for the "Holy Book Festival" and shared it with him and Athena, two strangers.
Language is insignificant at this time, and it can't express the hospitality of the Feier family. At this time, Cheng Mo wondered whether Feier had other plans, but what he saw in Feier's eyes and expression was Sincere, polite demeanor filled with sincerity.
The same is true in the base of the Kurds. These believers are so stubborn. If you are an enemy, you must fight to the death and never compromise; if you are a friend, you will immediately take Bring out the best things to share with you, if you don't accept it, it's not good.
But then again, a population with such a character is indeed very easy to go to extremes, especially under the bewitchment of belief.
Cheng Mo pushed the plate back to the middle of the coffee table and said, "Let's eat together." He picked up a piece of nut pastry and handed it to Athena, and he also took a burrito and wrapped it in yogurt.
Seeing that Cheng Mo and Athena were eating with gusto, Feier immediately smiled contentedly, "Thank you, Miss Xie, I used to think that there was no hope for us Syrians, but since she came, everything has improved , as Ms. Xie said, knowledge can change destiny. Nowadays, children who have studied in school can find a good job in Damascus, especially if they are good at Chinese.”
Cheng Mo raised his glass and took a sip of date palm juice, then asked suspiciously: "There should be no Chinese tourists in Damascus, right?"
Feier smiled and explained: "There are not many tourists, but there are many businessmen. The building materials and small commodities in Damascus are all imported from your Huaxia. Huaxia is now our largest trading country in Syria. Chinese is very popular in Damascus, especially those who can speak and write. The salary is enough for them to live a decent life in Damascus. My younger brother works in a building material company. Their company specializes in importing various types of aluminum from China. Alloy windows and glass are cheap and of good quality. He said that as long as he contacts the Huaxia company through the Internet and pays with digital currency, the order can be placed. Huaxia company will deliver the goods to Hong Kong in less than a month, which is very fast. It’s unbelievable.” Fayle said full of longing, “My brother said that the main reason is that our oil production has not yet fully resumed. When the war is completely over and the oil field can be operated, I believe that you Chinese people will help us with infrastructure construction. , Wait until then, the future that Miss Xie described will come!"
Cheng Mo remembered the flames of war that had just been set off again, and said in a low voice, "It will definitely happen."
"In short, no matter who we are in the refugee camp, we are very grateful to Miss Xie, and also very grateful for the help from Huaxia. So it is not surprising that her photo is placed in the most prominent place in the room."
"I'm very proud that a Chinese person can bring so many changes to you." Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun's photo again, and said softly in Chinese, "That's great."
—————————————————————
When the skyline was turning white, Heller and Khalid finally walked back to the armed pickup, which they left behind in a palm tree in the distance of Adela Town. They saw that the armed pickup was safe and sound. Discovered by the Syrian government army, the anxious Heller let go of his tense heartstrings.
Heller put the gun in her bosom on her shoulder, walked quickly to the co-pilot, and said without turning her head: "You have to hurry, when the sky is completely bright, the danger will be much greater."
Khalid responded with "OK", walked quickly to the driver's seat, took out the car key from his pocket, and opened the car door.
After getting into the car, Heller breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought that bastard Reickzka would do something with the keys so that we couldn't even use the car. Fortunately, he didn't."
Khalid inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it to the ignition position. The humming of the engine broke the silence of the morning, the headlights illuminated the twisted tree trunk, and the various pointers on the instrument panel also bounced. He saw He glanced at the oil meter and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Reketska doesn't need to do anything at all. We can run less than [-] kilometers with the remaining oil."
"What?" Heller turned to look over, and said angrily, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Khalid argued aggrievedly: "The situation was so critical last night, I didn't even pay attention to how much gas was left in the car!"
Heller hammered the seat hard, "Why are you so unlucky?"
Khalid opened the door and jumped out of the car, "I'll go see if there are any oil drums in the trailer."
Heller took out the phone from her coat pocket and tried to turn it on again. The black screen of the phone was still indifferent. She frowned and said to herself: "There must be no oil barrels, the bastard Reketska must We're sure we won't be able to go back." Heller's voice trembled again, with a choked cry, "What should I do? What should I do?"
The morning dew condensed on the leaves of the jujube tree in front of the car, and the earth showed signs of waking up. The light at the end of the sky was like a rope tied around her neck, and it became tighter and tighter as time went by. Heller thought: "Even if I rush back now, what can I do? What can I do? God is too cruel to us Querds."
Tears had dried up, and she couldn't bear the overload of pessimism. She clenched her phone tightly and fell into despair.It was pitch black all around, and she couldn't see where she was going, couldn't tell the direction, and didn't know where to go.
"Too bad there are no oil drums in the back!" Khalid's frustrated voice rang out. He pulled the car door and sat in the driver's seat. He turned his head to look at Heller, who was hiding pain between her brows, and saw her helpless look. Khalid was heartbroken, and he felt that he should find a way to help her, so he asked, "How about I find an oil pot and find a way to get some oil at the gas station? A lot of money and they won't doubt me"
Heller thought for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "No, we can't. We have to go to the refugee camp. I can't just go back like this."
----------------------
(BGM - "last train" the midnight)
When the long and long sound of bunk sounded in the refugee camp, Fayer's family went to the temple to do morning prayers, and only Cheng Mo and Athena were left in the room.
And that photo.
Finally, when no one was there, Cheng Mo got up and walked to the cabinet. He raised his hand and gently stroked Xie Minyun's cold cheek with his fingers. Even though the frame and the photo were spotless, he still picked up the frame and carefully Wipe it down.
In the silence, Athena suddenly said, "It's strange, why did she choose you?"
"Actually, I also find it very strange." Cheng Mo stared at Xie Minyun and said.
"Although it is true that you are not a good match, I don't mean appearance and family background, I mean character."
"Thank you for being so direct." Cheng Mo first whispered self-deprecatingly, and then asked, "Do you care about a person's appearance and family background?"
"Of course not," said Athena, "but you will care."
"That's right, I do care. I'm quite realistic. At first I cared because it was unrealistic, but later I cared because it was too realistic." Cheng Mo put down the photo frame, "I'm just a coward."
"Timid? I didn't see that."
"In extreme situations, I can do anything. I think timid is not enough to describe me. I should be the kind of person who is unwilling to take responsibility, and I am also very good at avoiding responsibility. My personality and hers are really good. It is quite contradictory. The left-wing liberals like her who pursue fairness and justice and the classical liberals like me who advocate the survival of the fittest are naturally incompatible in terms of three views. Logically speaking, she should be the one who sees me as a greedy egoist Those who are not pleasing to the eye, I think she is like an idealistic sand sculpture. But the interesting thing about this world is that as long as you are alive, unpredictable things will happen. Two people with different positions can also love each other. This is actually more important than identity, Family background and appearance are more difficult to overcome, but it just happened. Just like now, you and I, the husband of a red nobleman and the fiancée of a French emperor, are at this moment in a room of refugees, and we seem to be destined God's guidance, and it seems that I came here aimlessly and drifted here." After a pause, Cheng Mo continued, "I saw a photo." He rubbed the photo in his hand and sighed softly, "Unbelievable."
"Then I find it even more strange." Athena seemed to think for a while, and after leaving blank, she suddenly said lightly, "I think the two of us are suitable."
Cheng Mo Athena's direct words were shaken severely, and then he told himself that this was just an example Athena gave casually, and it was only natural for a person with low emotional intelligence like her to say such things.He suppressed the waves in his heart and tried his best to look like he was out of it.
"I have also thought about why she chose me. I have come up with many psychological factors in this regard, primacy effect, suspension bridge effect, Stockholm syndrome. All in all, I think she probably seeks excitement, after all, like me There are not many such dangerous people around her." Cheng Mo looked back at Athena, "As for whether it is suitable or not. Before I was with her, I also thought that we should not be suitable. But in fact, we got along very well. Well, she is a person who is used to giving, and I am a person who is used to taking. Don't look at her cold appearance, in fact, she is a little overflowing with love. Maybe she is afraid that I, the person who once saved her, will go astray, so She chose me regardless! Thinking about it, she was even willing to sacrifice herself for a little girl she had never met before." Thinking of Rebecca Chengmo, she sighed again, "So you can only know whether it is suitable or not when you get along. Of course, maybe our time together is too short and we haven't had time to have friction, but I also blindly believe that she can handle it well."
Athena didn't delve into the question of "suitable or not". Instead, she asked, "You mean she chose you to repay you?"
Cheng Mo shook his head directly and said: "This is the element, not the reason. Sometimes love can be simple, and sometimes it can be very complicated. The reason for falling in love with someone may be just the right one, maybe it is appearance, identity, background , experience, and other complicated factors. Some people’s love is clear, and some people’s love is not.” It seems simple, we can verify some of the conclusions, but we can’t prove how many points in the plane can guarantee that we can find a convex n-gon from it.” Cheng Mo smiled, “In short, as long as the ending is happy, some The problem does not require a conclusion, nor does it need a proof." (In simple terms, the "happy ending problem" is the problem of connecting some points in the plane to form a graph, because the two mathematicians who discovered this problem, George Sekeresh and Esther Clay, who developed a love affair while working on this problem together, hence the name "The Happy Ending Problem".)
When Cheng Mo uttered the "problem of a happy ending", Athena once again entered the state of ethereal contemplation. After Cheng Mo finished speaking for a while, she whispered: "Your example is so ingenious. When a system is large enough, Just like when there are enough points in the "happy ending problem", we can always separate some ordered components, such as convex polygons, even if the system as a whole is disordered. This is the same as love, so many lovers, The reason why some people have love can be summed up in a regular way, and some people can't, you can never prove whether there is a law in love, just like"
Both said at the same time: "George Sekeresh and Esther Clay."
After the unanimous tacit understanding, there was a brief silence. After several breaths, Athena asked again: "Love is more interesting than mathematics?"
"How should I say it?" Cheng Mo placed the photo in the middle of the cabinet. He moved left and right a few times, then moved to look far away, corrected it a few times, and then turned to face Athena, ". When you want to solve a math problem, it's not fun to solve it. When you don't like math and don't want to solve it at all, it's not fun to do it." He shrugged his shoulders , "I don't know if this description is accurate"
"What if he wants to solve that problem, but he can't?"
"It will probably be very painful and painful."
"What about you? Is it untied like you or not?"
Cheng Mo stood in the middle of the living room and was silent for a long time before saying: "A person is actually pretty good, but when a person wants to find another person, he will feel lonely. If one day he finds another person, he will not be able to find another person." If you don't lose it, you will feel very lonely." He didn't look at Xie Minyun's photo again, and didn't give Athena a chance to answer the conversation. He went straight to the sofa and picked up his backpack, then walked to the kitchen and said softly, "I'm preparing in the kitchen. Order something to eat."
Athena looked at Cheng Mo's direction and thought about it, until the familiar fine tune sounded in the kitchen. This sound was mixed in the empty and distant bunk, as if adding a tear-jerking low voice to the high-pitched and bright holy music. This reminded her of the lemon mousse cake her mother made for her. Adding some citric acid to the sweetness will make the cake more refreshing and long-lasting.
This is a taste that she has never been able to forget so far. This taste is deposited in her mind like a stubborn reef.For her, maybe lemon mousse is the taste of mother, sweet and sour.
Perhaps, that could also be the taste of home.
In the memory, Athena smelled the aroma of cardamom and coffee, and she knew that Cheng Mo was preparing Coke for her, so she thought: What about Coke?
What does Coke taste like to her?
She closed her eyes and leaned on the sofa, as if she was resting, or intoxicated by a melodious blues.
-----------------------
After the morning ceremony, Fayer called the UNHCR official Anezan he had mentioned. When he heard that there were Interpol, a Chinese and a German had arrived at the refugee camp, Anezan hurriedly drove from Damascus. Came to the refugee camp in Douma.
Completely different from Fayle, who is simple in appearance and equally simple in heart, Anezan is not only short and fat, cunning and slippery like a landlord, but also quite slippery in speaking, and is very good at bureaucratic accents.
Because of this, even though the appearance of Cheng Mo and Athena was so weird and there were many loopholes in the rhetoric, Anezan didn't even show any doubts when he didn't even explain how he came to Duma.He was even quite cautious in his words, which made Cheng Mo feel humbled.
Cheng Mo understands this kind of "kneeling" mentality. How can he say that he and Athena are indeed foreigners. For a country like Syria, they are serious foreigners. As the patron country of the Douma refugee camp, it is normal for Anezan to grovel.
What makes Cheng Mo sigh is that he never imagined that he would be able to live the addiction of foreign adults in his lifetime.
Anezan had no intention of verifying the identities of Cheng Mo and Athena, Cheng Mo took the initiative to give the documents to Anezan, and he took a cursory look at it, and then enthusiastically agreed to Cheng Mo to help find the identity of Cheng Mo and Athena. Ahmadi Stanger's men.
When Cheng Mo took back the documents, he thought it was really a secret. Patani had prepared several sets of documents for him, each of which could stand the test. Even calling the Interpol headquarters, he could find the corresponding person. What a pity. Neizan didn't care about the authenticity of Cheng Mo and Athena's identities at all.
After agreeing to help find someone, Anezan expressed the difficulty appropriately, saying that the name "Ahmadi Stanger" is too common and common, and there are 8 to [-] people in the entire refugee camp. All the information is in Damascus, and it is not so easy to find him.
Cheng Mo guessed that Anezan wanted to claim credit, and he recalled Khalid's behavior of giving money to people when he passed the checkpoint. He secretly thought that Feier was a kind person, but Anezan might not be.He tentatively stuffed some euros into Anezan, saying that he was cheering for Anezan. Anezan did not refuse at all, and put the money in his pocket calmly, and immediately gave Cheng Mo three ways to find "Ahmai" Di Stanger" way.
"Mr. Xie, the quickest way is to broadcast to find someone. We can go to the minaret of the temple and ask the announcer to broadcast the broadcast; if you don't want that person named Ahmadi Stanger to know that you are looking for him , then I can also call the camp leaders of each battalion and let the camp leaders search for them secretly. Of course, this method is slower; there is another method that is slightly faster, but it is more troublesome. We will go to the refugee agency in Damascus to check immediately. All the information is there."
Seeing that there is a way to go directly to Damascus, Cheng Mo naturally would not miss it, and said confidently: "We don't want to startle the snake, it's best to go to the refugee agency in Damascus to check."
"Okay, then shall we go now?" Anezan agreed without hesitation.
Cheng Mo nodded.
Anezan smiled humbly, pointed at the gate of the refugee camp, and said to an old silver 307 sign parked on the side of the road: "Those two wait a moment, I will drive in, the car is not very good, please Don't be offended."
Cheng Mo glanced at the silver car covered in scratches and paint patches, and said with a smile, "It's okay."
Anezan said, "Wait a moment", then trotted towards the gate with his clumsy body twisting, his back like a fat mole.
Cheng Mo withdrew his gaze from Anezan, and turned to look at Athena beside him.Faint mist floats among the rows of iron houses, and those black iron houses are like silent boulders lurking in a long history.There are still a few white stars lingering in the sky, they are the last stubbornness of the night, stubbornly nailed above the fading sky.The morning light entered the arena blazingly, and they smudged the junction of the sky and the earth into layers of gradient colors, launching the final charge towards the dark night.
The overlapping of day and night reflects the deep profile of Athena, which immediately presents a film texture, rough, vast, desolate, and beautiful.
The picture was so beautiful that Cheng Mo lost his mind. He couldn't help thinking of the classic scene in "Titanic". The huge ship was driving on the vast waves, the sunset glowed the sea and the sky, and Jack and Rose stood at the bow. , like a bird that never settles.The picture in the movie is completely different from this moment, but the strong and magnificent colors are equally magnificent.
The hazy glow reflected in Athena's pupils, like a beautiful movie scene.
He felt that if he was a photographer, he would be glad that Athena didn't take off the mask covering her face.At this time, the flickering light and shadow in the dim match perfectly with her vague silhouette hidden in the dark.If Athena showed her true face, it would be out of season, her beauty is too destructive, fiercer than the sun, and everything in the world will be eclipsed.
Just like Venus with broken arms, the hands had to be cut off because they were too perfect, otherwise others would not be able to appreciate the beauty of this sculpture.
The appearance of Athena holding the sword of Perseus jumped out of his mind again, exuding unconquerable charm all over her body, which is probably the reason why she let men like Napoleon go forward.
Athena noticed Cheng Mo's focused gaze, but she didn't say anything, letting Cheng Mo appreciate it.
Cheng Mo sighed in his heart, he knew what he was about to miss, he knew very well that he had made a completely wrong decision, he felt regretful about it, but at the same time felt relieved.He looked up at the blue sky of the deep sea, listening to the slight wind in his ears, as if he was listening to the singing of the woman he might lose forever.
He forgot the provocative lines that he had thought of long ago, and said calmly: "I won't go to Damascus with you later." He paused, and said softly, "Let's say goodbye now!"
Athena didn't speak, she watched Anezan staggeringly towards the silver sign 307 indifferently. There was a faint mist in the small town in the early morning, and there were occasional vehicles passing by on the road not far away, and the noise of tires was coming. This morning is extraordinarily clear, like the sound of a loud radio signal.
Some people can search for his channel, some people can't.Some people can solve his math problems, some people can't.
Cheng Mo forced himself to smile for a while, he felt that smiling is really a good thing to relieve embarrassment, he fixed the smile on the corner of his lips, and said to himself: "I owe you three Uroboros, you can go to UBS Pick it up at the Paris branch on Avenue Montaigne. The key is in the hands of one of my subordinates. His name is Nicholas, his phone number is 06 XX XX XX 91, and his password is 97XXXXXXXX. There are four Ouroboros in it, and the extra one is considered interest. He put his hands in his pockets, and said awkwardly for the first time, "I don't know what skills you have in the Ouroboros you borrowed from me. I can make up some money for you, mine."
"I don't need interest." Athena interrupted Cheng Mo's narration and said lightly.
The sound of the engine starting was heard by the side of the road, and thick white gas floated from the exhaust pipe with the silver logo. It shook twice like a brown bear climbing ashore from the lake, and then retreated more than ten meters away. Zizi turned the car around flexibly and drove towards Cheng Mo and Athena who were standing inside the refugee camp.
The sound of "sand, sand, sand" from the tires rolling on the gravel was like a huge hourglass counting down the time with quicksand.
"Then what do you need?" Cheng Mo asked, he felt that his heart was heavier than the ground under his feet, and he didn't know if it was because of the unpredictable future, or because of the imminent parting, or because he took the initiative to hurt again athena.He felt the constriction of blood vessels and the spasm of nerves, and the pain spread all over his body, so that he didn't want time to continue to pass.But the endless rustling sound and approaching headlights kept reminding him that he was heading towards an ending that he could not control.
"I don't need anything."
As she said, her tone was colder than the morning wind on the Gobi, making the travelers who had no destination shiver.
"You always need this." Cheng Mo took off the backpack on his shoulders and handed it to Athena.He had already entered a state of numbness, he didn't know what to say, the words and sentences he had thought up before were soaked by the heavy rain in his mind, blurred to the point of being unrecognizable.He finally discovered that the source of his pain was the irreparable harm to Athena.I have trampled on this hard-won friendship again and again, no matter it is friendship, or some kind of affection that is deeper than friendship.At first, he deliberately longed for the establishment of such a close relationship between the two of them, but now he loathes himself for using shrewdness and cunning to establish such a close relationship.
He proved that Athena also has a mortal side, and also proved that he is just an extremely ordinary mortal, who will lose his rationality and choose to be emotional, like a hopeless gambler.
Cheng Mo feels that the direction of life is really unpredictable. He thinks that he is such a selfish egoist who always puts himself first and will never understand the meaning of dedication and dedication. Now he is violating the principle and wants to try without hesitation To be a hero.
The silver logo car stopped in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, Anezan pressed the window and said loudly: "Mr. Xie, get in the car!"
"My colleague Wendy is going to Damascus with you, and I will stay here to guard." Cheng Mo said, and he handed the backpack in his hand closer to Athena again.
Athena reached up and grabbed the shoulder straps of the backpack.
Cheng Mo didn't let go of his hand immediately, he didn't dare to look at Athena, his right hand trembled unconsciously, he quickly let go of his hand, thinking that he was going to grab something, waved it in the void, but didn't take it back immediately.
"No problem, then you can wait here, you can sit in my office, or go to Fayle's house"
In the noisy response of Anezan, Athena walked towards the old Peugeot car with her backpack, she walked down the cement corridor and stepped on the gravel road.She walked neither fast nor slow, and the newly emerged sun cast a ray of warm light on her hairline and shoulders.
Cheng Mo heard the sound of the hourglass breaking.He couldn't tell if it was love or something else.No matter what kind of feelings it is, he doesn't want to destroy the friendship with Athena at all. He refuses the approach of desire, and is also afraid of the arrival of love.He felt that he should try to remedy it more or less, so he said with a smile: "We will meet again, maybe in a short time, I will contact you and ask you to take me to the Garden of Eden, when the time comes."
Athena ignored him, she opened the car door, bowed into the car, closed the door gently, and isolated Cheng Mo from the car.
Cheng Mo closed his mouth, but his expression was hesitant to speak.
Anezan waved his hand at Chengmo, "Mr. Naxie, we are leaving for the UNHCR now."
Cheng Mo knew that this was his last chance to stay, he felt his heart beating faster, and he knew what it meant to him that the only reliable Athena left.He also knew how much danger Athena would face if Athena was left behind.He'd already ruined one girl he loved because of his ego, and now he couldn't ruin another.
"Maybe loneliness is my destiny." Cheng Mo thought to himself, he raised his hand, smiled with all his strength, and said to Anezan: "Let's go!"
Anezan waved.
Athena sat in the back seat, solidified like an immortal sculpture.
The silver logo moved slowly, the tires rolled over the gravel, and he watched Athena's profile, on the other side of the glass window.He felt that he was the one who left, sitting in the small sampan, far away from a fertile and lonely island.He saw Athena's eyes deeper than Xingxuan's in the rearview mirror, and the distant attraction made him hold his breath involuntarily.
He couldn't help but walked down the concrete steps and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't make any sound, just staring at the nothingness in the rearview mirror.He saw her breathtaking eyes turned to the other side in the burning sun, avoiding meeting his gaze, as if blaming him for his capriciousness, and seeming to mock him for being a coward who is afraid of commitment.
The sign 307 drove out of the simple gate of the refugee camp in the sunlight, and it turned an extremely long turn in the silent gilt mist, heading for the road in the distance.
Cheng Mo saw the slow-motion montage, as if he was witnessing the end of a tragedy.
-----------------------
Cheng Mo watched Athena leave with a blank face, thinking: This is a bad start, before I figured out who the enemy is, I sent away the most powerful helper, I didn't expect Cheng Mo to be like this A day of dedication?It's not considered a dedication, you already owe so much to others, how can you still have the nerve to trick them into being a good person with you?
"It seems that you are not so bad that there is no cure!" Cheng Mo imitated his wife's tone and talked to himself. He walked down the concrete steps and walked towards the gate of the refugee camp.It's only past 08:30, Fayle won't get off work until [-]:[-], and Fayle is still in the duty room at this time.
In the early morning, the refugee camp began to recover, and those slight sounds, like pulses, lurked in every corner of the densely packed iron houses.There were sporadic Syrians coming in and out at the gate, some with farm tools, and some with clay pots on their heads.When they saw Cheng Mo, they would all cast surprised glances, but it wasn't like when Cheng Mo was pretending to be a white man, his eyes were either filled with hatred or disgust.When they faced Cheng Mo, a Chinese man, their eyes were full of kindness, and when they looked at Cheng Mo, they would even smile actively.
This is called Cheng Mo's mixed tastes. To him, these smiles are meaningless, and he doesn't care at all.However, he knew that this was the world Xie Minyun wanted, a world where there were only smiles everywhere and no wars.
Cheng Mo also tried to respond with a smile, but he could only sigh bitterly in his heart: "Xie Xiaojin, the questions you gave me are really difficult! How can I save the queer people and Khalid's family?" Cheng Mo Mo felt that he had no clue, and his strength was not directly proportional to the opponent, "We can only find Stanger first, and the best way is to break through from the enemy. Anyway, it is not the first time I have done such a thing as self-inflicted snares." , the greater the risk, the greater the reward, at least Khalid’s family can be rescued first. But this is also the worst way. Time is running out, and it seems that I have no other choice.”
It’s not difficult to find Querd’s undercover Stanger, even if there are no officials from the UNHCR. If the other party wants to be an undercover agent, he must have held a moderate position in the refugee camp. Just call Fayle to ask someone Ask, and you might be able to find out.The reason why I didn't tell Anezan, an official of the UNHCR, is because since Anezan can take them away directly, there is no need to do anything extra.
Walking to the duty room on the right side of the gate, Cheng Mo did not see Fayer, but another young Saudi with curly hair and wearing a camouflage uniform.The two looked at each other, both a little surprised, but the other's surprise was written on his face, while Cheng Mo's surprise was hidden in his heart.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have forgotten to speak, Cheng Mo took the initiative to ask in Saudi: "Where is Fayer?"
"Oh! Fayle, he has something to do." The other party came back to his senses and stared at Cheng Mo's face. His facial muscles were tense, as if he was wary of something.
Cheng Mo looked down at the table, there was nothing on the table, and the curly-haired hands were also placed under the table, not on the table, and the other party did not ask who he was, but honestly He answered Cheng Mo's inquiry, which allowed him to grasp the opening.So he secretly sacrificed the "Seven Sins", pretending to be nonchalant and asked: "Stanger told you to stay here, right?"
Curly's eyebrows twitched in shock from Cheng Mo's sudden words, and his arm shook violently, almost raising the pistol hidden under the table, but in the end Curly managed to stabilize his mind and spoke extremely fast Justification: "I don't know what you're talking about. Fayle he'll be right back, you can wait here"
"Heller is here, take me to find them." Cheng Mo turned his head and looked at the road in the distance, the traffic began to rush, and in a trance, he saw the silver logo 307 speeding past, he turned his head He whispered to the surprised Curly, "I am the one you are looking for."
-------------------------
Cheng Mo was sandwiched by Curly Hair and another Querd man one after the other, and came to the innermost row of simple houses in the refugee camp. There was only a fence between the wheat field and the field, and there were green wheat fields outside the fence. , from the perspective of the terrain, it is undoubtedly the best escape position.
The sun has not completely jumped out of the horizon, and the simple tin houses are hidden in the shadows. The cold wind blows through the eaves, making the tin roofs rattle.
The three of them walked to the middle room, and before knocking on the door, the other party opened the door ahead of time, probably because there were spies ahead and saw them coming.Before Cheng Mo entered the house, he clearly heard the sound of pulling the bolt of the gun. When he was pushed into the dark and narrow iron house by the people behind him, several guns were raised and pointed at his head.
Cheng Mo raised his hand and took a quick glance. There were four Saudis in camouflage uniforms standing at the four corners of the room. A one-eyed Saudi stood in the middle of the living room. Fayer was firmly tied a chair.He held his breath and heard that there were still several people hiding in the room.
Everyone was surprised to see Cheng Mo come in, including Fayer, who was sweating profusely and wanted to say something, but his mouth was tightly strangled by the rope, and he could only spit out sentences with unknown meanings from his throat.
One-eyed looked at Cheng Mo, then looked at Curly Hair, asked something in Syriac, and Curly Hair stammered.
Although Cheng Mo couldn't quite understand their conversation, he could roughly guess that Cyclops should be asking why Mao brought a Chinese man over.He didn't want to waste time, so he yelled directly to the room with the closed door: "Heller, come out! I'm Rektska."
The door of the room was pushed open in an instant, and Heller walked out of the room. Her eyes searched around the room, and finally locked on Cheng Mo. After looking up and down, she asked in shock: "Are you Lake?" Zika? Are you not a German? A Chinese?”
"That's right." Cheng Mo put down his hand.
Instead, Heller raised his gun and said in a cold voice, "Hands up!"
Cheng Mo looked at the cold muzzle of the gun and raised his hand again.
"Don't move your hands. I know you have a lightsaber. But you can't be faster than the guns of the seven of us." Heller said loudly, "Everyone be careful, he is the one I said."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, even the one-eyed man who was standing in the middle moved aside, took out a pistol and pointed it at Cheng Mo.
Cheng Mo said calmly: "Since I came here on my own initiative, I just want to solve the problem, not to provoke a fight."
"As long as we catch you, we can solve the problem. Uncle Tamer said, as long as we catch you, we Querds will be saved."
Cheng Mo said lightly: "Maybe we have a better solution?"
"A better solution? When you cheat Khalid's cell phone with a broken watch! There is no trace of friendship between us! Mr. Reketska, I have begged you hard, but How did you tell me?" Heller said with excitement, "'What you have to learn from your father is not how to face fear, but never beg for mercy.'" Poor The girl said viciously, "Are you begging for my mercy now?"
Khalid's handsome profile appeared beside the door. He had a gloomy face, gnashing his teeth and staring at Cheng Mo's eyes. There was hatred and disappointment in those eyes.
Cheng Mo turned a blind eye, and he still said indifferently: "I mean cooperation, I didn't leave, I just wanted to help you queer people and Khaled."
"I don't need your help right now. I'm on our own." Heller said coldly, "Uncle Stanger, you have to tie up that cunning fox with wire. You have to tie it up firmly."
Cheng Mo turned his head to watch the one-eyed approach slowly, and said expressionlessly, "Can you let Mr. Fayle go first?"
One Eye hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Heller.
Heller gritted his teeth and said, "We are not as bad as you! We will not sacrifice innocent people!"
Cheng Mo thought about everything in his heart, but decided to wait for the time being and let Heller arrest him in exchange for the safety of the Querds and Khalid's family.He put his hand in front of the one-eyed Stanger, and said calmly, "Tie it up."
(I originally wanted to finish writing Syria and then update it, but I really underestimated my hydrological ability, and I still have [-] words to save, but I am not very satisfied with the plot, and I will update it after I think it through.)
