Chapter 1683 Deminer

Li Yifei has been on several missions here before, and he is quite familiar with the environment here. He knows that the most dangerous thing here is not necessarily the snakes and insects, the changeable environment and poisonous insects, but the hidden mines hidden underground. All kinds of mines, plastic mines, anti-personnel mines, etc.

Especially plastic mines, the validity period can reach 120 years, and the war is only half over now, and there are still decades of validity period. Countless villagers have been killed along the entire border. Li Yifei remembers that when he was on the mission, Passing by a village, there are 100 people in the whole village, but there are only less than [-] legs. Many men and women have only one leg, some have both legs broken, and some children are even a few years old. Legs, arms, and eyes were damaged by the explosion. At that time, a deminer was rescued from the mountain by Li Yifei and several other teammates.

The deminer accidentally stepped on a landmine during the voluntary demining, and was directly blown off a leg, blinded by the shrapnel, and even had a dozen shrapnel in his body, which has not been removed yet. come out.

These deminers are villagers from nearby villages, and many of them are spontaneous. The land is the foundation of their survival, and this land is full of dangers. If they do not remove them, their sons and daughters will be killed and injured. , rather than letting their children face the dangers that are always there, they would rather face the dangers themselves.

After Li Yifei finished his mission, he also helped the villagers in that village clear mines for a day. Together with his teammates, he knocked out more than 800 mines of various types in one day, and cleared mines on several mountains.

There are so many landmines in a few small hills, and there are countless hills and hills on this stretch of the border, and there are also countless landmines.

Dangers are everywhere, and Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan did not carry modern investigation equipment, relying entirely on Li Yifei's experience and observation, the speed of travel is not bad.

The two climbed over two mountains and saw a person, a very old woman walking forward with both hands and feet. Xu Shanshan was startled by the sudden appearance of this woman. She stood behind Li Yifei and looked at this woman warily. woman.

The face of the old woman was terrifying, one eye seemed to be gone, there was only a horrible scar, and half of her face was twisted together, what was even more frightening was that the old woman had only one leg, and the other leg was only a section, and Her left hand is also gone, just above the wrist.

No wonder, she wants to crawl in this mountain forest instead of walking normally.

Xu Shanshan's heart beat a little fast, and she didn't intend to show hostility, but a woman who looked like a female ghost suddenly appeared in this dense forest. If Li Yifei wasn't by her side, she would have screamed in fright.

Li Yifei is not afraid. After he saw the other party clearly, he knew what was going on. In this mountain, there are many people who are worse than the old woman. However, there is no village in front of this place, and there is no shop behind. How could the other party run away? Come here?

Li Yifei talked to Xu Shanshan and walked over.

The old woman's remaining eye could only be opened a little bit. She turned over, sat up, watched Li Yifei approaching, and said in a hoarse voice: "People outside, this is not where you should come, it's too dangerous , turn around and walk back!"

It was Chinese, and although the accent was a little weird, both Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan understood it.

"Old man, thank you for your reminder. We know that there are many landmines here, so we will be careful." Li Yifei walked over, took out a bottle of mineral water and a piece of bread from his bag, handed them to the old man, and at the same time squatted down and asked: "Old man, Why are you in this mountain forest? There are probably large beasts haunting here."

On the road just now, Li Yifei saw the feces of wild boars and traces of destruction, and even saw the footprints of some kind of cat. The fight with the tiger he and Prince Sashar mentioned happened in southern Xinjiang.

Not to mention large beasts, even some small animals are enough to kill such an old man.

The old man didn't refuse Li Yifei's kindness, she pulled back the hand behind her back, and Li Yifei saw a bag, which looked a little tattered, like some kind of animal skin, with a few things exposed inside, A machete, an ax with a wooden handle, an old shotgun, and a few small tools.

No wonder the old man dared to stay alone in this kind of place. If she didn't have a weapon to defend herself, any animal that came out could kill her.

Seeing the old man showing his weapon, Xu Shanshan hurried over and explained, "Old lady, we didn't mean anything malicious, you..."

The old man grinned, looking a bit ferocious, and said hoarsely: "I know you have no malice, otherwise you wouldn't give me food, and I have no malice towards you, because I'm only here to clear mines."

Hearing the word demining, Li Yifei respected the old man. Xu Shanshan also knelt down and asked curiously: "Old man, how do you clear mines like this? Oh, I didn't mean that, I mean, you I’m not in good health anymore, the job of demining should be handed over to young people, otherwise you will be in danger yourself.”

The old man smiled miserably, and said, "Oh, there are no young people anymore. My old woman is alone, and she will stand in line every day she lives. If she dies in the mountains, she won't be buried by someone else. She just happens to be with my old man and son!"

It turned out that the old man's wife and son were both killed by landmines in the mountains. The wife was going to clear the mines. He didn't pay attention to his feet and accidentally stepped on a trigger mine. He didn't find it, so after the sound of the touch, it immediately exploded It became a piece of meat, but because the son went up the mountain to farm, he went down with a pickaxe and went straight to the landmine, which triggered the explosives. His son also died.

The old man lost his husband and son, and was in great pain. At the same time, he hated the landmines all over the mountain to the extreme, so he asked people for advice on how to find and dismantle mines, and then went into the forest with tools.

It's not that the neighbors never persuaded her, but the old man was even more stubborn, saying that if I drained one at a time, then the children in the village would be less dangerous.

With the increase in the number of mine clearance, the experience of the old man has become more and more proficient. Over the years, thousands of landmines have been cleared, but once when clearing mines, he encountered two landmines side by side. The old man thought that there was no danger, and prepared to clear the mine, but when he touched the landmine, the trigger mine below exploded, directly blowing the old man into what he is now.

A few days later, she was discovered by the people in the village and rescued. She has been raised for a full year. The old man has no income, and now she mostly relies on relatives and neighbors for assistance, as well as a little money given to her by the state every month. Not much, not enough for the old man to live on her own, and it has to be that she has no disasters.

After recovering from the injury, the neighbor advised the old man to stay at home after this. If he continued to struggle, he might not live for long, but the old man became more stubborn. She said that even if she crawled, she would continue to clear the mines, so that The children in the village will not be disabled in the future, and they will not lose their lives at any time.

The range of demining is getting bigger and bigger. At the beginning, the elderly can walk around the village with one leg, go out in the morning and go home in the evening. Later, the range is far away. It may take half a day for the elderly to reach the place, so they can only take It takes a few days for dry food once you enter the mountains, and among them, the elderly often need to eat and sleep in the mountains and forests by themselves.

Whether it is facing a beast, a poisonous snake, or a mosquito bite, the old man has to face it by himself, and she is a disabled person!

Li Yifei also saw that in the broken bag that the old man was carrying, there were already several types of landmines that had been discharged, plastic, trigger, conventional, and several types, and the fuses had been removed by the old man.

She is not a soldier, not a government employee, and theoretically has no obligation to go into this deep mountain to clear mines. Moreover, after being bombed like this, she can let go, but the old man still insists. This time, she has been in the mountain for four days. The old man today If she doesn't go out of the mountain, she must go out tomorrow, otherwise she will have nothing to eat. No food in the deep mountains is a desperate situation for her.

The old man did not refuse Li Yifei's food. He quickly ate a piece of bread and drank half a bottle of water. Xu Shanshan took out another pack of compressed biscuits and a bag of beef from the bag with a full face, and put them in the old man's hands.

The old man didn't refuse her kindness, but just smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Thank you, you two are good people, so don't go to the mountains anymore, it's really not fun there."

"Thank you, we understand, otherwise...we will send you out first!" Li Yifei said.

The old man shook his head and said: "I'm full, I have strength, I can go out by myself, if you must go in, then hurry up, the mountains and forests during the day are much safer than at night, if at night, Don't wander around, the demons in this mountain have harmed too many people."

The two nodded repeatedly, and the old man stuffed the food that Xu Shanshan handed her into the torn bag, tidied up the contents, tied the bag, and slowly climbed down the mountain.

Li Yifei couldn't bear it, but even if he sent the old man home, he couldn't help her all the time, so he chased after him, took out a knife, and chopped off a crutch for the old man, hoping that after she climbed the road, she could walk on it go back.

The two kept watching the figure of the old man disappear. The old man would not crawl all the time, but would use his hands and feet to crawl forward when he had no strength to walk.

"Let's...be careful too!" Xu Shanshan held Li Yifei's hand and said with complicated emotions. It wasn't until this time, after listening to the stories told by the old man and seeing the old man's appearance, that Xu Shanshan realized that there is something here. It's really not fun, and it's really, really dangerous.

Li Yifei nodded, let go of Xu Shanshan's hand, looked up at the sun, and said, "We still have two hours to go, try to walk a certain distance, and stop to rest after we finish."
