Chapter 2 Refugee Camps (Part 1)
Although they are subject to eyebrow and discrimination, although in the refugee camps set up by the British Concession for the Chinese, they can only drink three bowls of porridge every day, and a large group of people are crowded in the refugee camps and do not even have the right to move freely, the exotic flag above their heads can give the most important thing to these refugees... a sense of security!
Before you walk into the refugee camp, hide under the Mi-shaped banner, and accept protection from the British government, you must first undergo a full-body search to ensure that you do not carry any weapons, including nail clippers; you must also take turns to the disinfectant room like animals transported in containers, and clean up the slutty things on your body at once in the strong smell of disinfectant water to avoid these small things carried by unhygienic things running around in the refugee camp, forming a terrible infectious disease. As for those guys who look vicious and think they are not good at first sight, they must cooperate with the review and explain their origins to the staff in detail. Among them, criminals wanted by the government will not be sheltered, addicts with opium or smoke guns will not be sheltered, and defeated soldiers in the Chinese army will not be sheltered...
In fact, David really wanted to not contain any of them!
I believe that anyone in his thirties who traveled thousands of miles to China to find gold, but ended up being able to get through the end of the month and never had a few kids in his pocket. He would not be in a good mood even if he had to face tens of thousands of refugees.
Looking at the refugee team in front of him, David was in a worse mood. While throwing two pieces of candy into the coffee cup, he waved his arms and used a pig-torn attitude to direct the Chinese to take off their clothes and walk honestly into the disinfection room where men and women were separated.
I don't know who led the head, but every Chinese who walked by David would bow to him. David lazily picked up the coffee cup and sniffed the scent of the hot coffee mixed with fresh milk. David's face finally had a slightly smile. Just as he was about to bring the liquid in the cup into his mouth, David's attention was suddenly attracted by a man.
This man is more than 180 cm tall. Among the orientals with dark eyes and yellow skin, this height is already outstanding. But what attracted David the most was that in this case, the man's head was still raised high, and he could not catch sight of it without being noticed!
When David's eyes fell on the man's arm, he couldn't help but frowned slightly. The man was injured. A thick layer of bandage made of cloth was wrapped around his left arm. The blood flowed from the wound had penetrated the cloth strip and fell to the ground drop by drop, but the man's expression was still very calm.
When the man walked slowly to David along the flow of people and began to take off his ragged clothes one by one, a chilling sound rang around him. It was not until this time that David understood why the man's wound was bleeding and could still look calm and composed.
“MYGOD!”
David couldn't help but exclaim. He stood up and walked to the man, carefully looking at the four claw marks that were nearly two feet long on his chest, which were slanted across half of his chest at a forty-five-degree angle. David stretched out his palm and compared the size. David suddenly widened his eyes, "You are the wounds you left behind when you patted the bear claws on your body!"
After so many years in China, David has been able to speak fluent Chinese, "My favorite leisure activity in the UK is to hunt with friends. I have seen animals photographed by bear claws. The scars on their bodies are exactly the same as those on your body. And judging from the width of the claws, if I guess correctly, the one who attacks you is still an adult male bear weighing more than 400 kilograms!"
He didn't say anything, which was accustomed to the other party's judgment.
"I'm really curious that you didn't even get slapped to death by it!"
David looked at the claw marks on the man's chest, as if he suddenly saw an adult male bear weighing more than 400 kilograms but growing a pair of wings and even able to fly! He sighed, "I can only say that you, a Chinese boy, have so good luck. You can appear in front of me alive. Tell me, what method did you use to escape the pursuit of the adult male bear after being hit by the claw of the adult male bear?"
escape?!
He subconsciously reached out his hand and gently stroked the four claw marks on his chest. It was just like this that slap broke his two ribs, causing his chest to hurt for half a year! Thinking back to the short but absolutely thrilling battle, he spoke. Perhaps because he rarely communicated with others, his voice was a little hoarse, and with the roughness of the wind in the mountains, it hit everyone present hard. "It is hungry and wants to eat me, I am about to starve to death, and I want to eat it too. Why do I run away?!"
"I want to eat it too..."
David must admit that he was really shocked by this reason.
Look at the various scars on this man's body, including scratches from the animal's claws, tooth marks from the teeth, and some scratches from the sharp knife, as well as large burns... These scars are covered with scars, as if they are wearing a layer of strange grid clothes on his body, and they are silently telling anyone's extraordinary experience.
Suddenly, an absolute chill suddenly hit David.
The wounds on this man were all left with the man's medals after fighting with wild beasts at close range! Did he never know how to use a gun? Did he use cold weapons to launch one tragic battle after another with little known battles with those beasts in the mountains? Is this man about to starve to death, just holding a knife, facing an adult male bear weighing more than 400 kilograms and being able to slap a big tree with one claw, and launching an attack?!
David likes hunting and also likes to listen to some wonderful stories related to hunting. When he invited an old hunter to drink, he heard about how to use cold weapons to deal with male bears.
On the chest of the male bear, there is a piece of moon-shaped white hair. Under the white hair is the heart of the male bear. Some experienced old hunters will take off the hats on their heads or throw them to the male bear with other things. Out of instinctive habits, male bears will always pick up the things that the hunter throws on them and see clearly. The hunters will take this opportunity to suddenly sprint and stab the hunting knife that has been prepared and has been two feet long into the male bear's heart.
Although this theory is easy to say, think about it, how many people dare to face an adult male bear weighing more than 400 kilograms, grab it and pick it up and watch it carefully, and stab a hunting knife more than two feet long into the heart of the male bear?!
If the movements are not fast enough, the action is not accurate enough, the strength is not strong enough, and the heart cannot be pierced through the male bear's heart with one knife, then the hunter must face the terrible heavy blow that the male bear can slap a big tree!
Even the old hunter who had been with the mountains all his life did not dare to use a two-foot-long hunting knife to deal with an adult male bear.
But the man in front of him, who seemed less than twenty years old, did it and took such a thing for granted. Looking at his lonely eyes, his calloused hands, his scars left by fighting for survival year after year, day after day, and the claws left by the four male bears on his chest, David's Adam's apple kept stammering.
The claw marks left by the male bear's claws on his chest had long been healed. He secretly guessed the age of this man and estimated the history that these wounds had. David could not imagine how old he was when this man was facing an adult male bear alone!
Fifteen, sixteen, or seventeen?
In this young man, David finally understood what nature's survival is, and finally understood the cruelest meaning behind Darwin's theory of biological evolution!
David sucked gently. He was silent for a long time before he reached out to point at the next door of the disinfection room, a special passage specially prepared for Chinese with identity, and said: "Strong boy, take your partner and go in from here. You don't have to pass through this disinfection room."
David refers to the companion, the "dog" lying quietly at the feet of this Chinese man. David has hunted so many times in his life and has seen countless hunting dogs with precious blood, but he has never seen such a dog with a more powerful aura than a wolf!
He looked deeply at the British man in front of him who had opened another passage for him. Looking at David's blue eyes like the sea, he was silent for a while and finally nodded vigorously.
Seeing the big boy with his dog under his feet slowly walking towards the special passage under the strange gaze of other Chinese people, David knew that he would never forget the Chinese man who had a lonely wolf in his whole body in his life, he said loudly: "Can a strong boy tell me your name?"
"Thunder and Zhen!"
His name, like him, was with a sense of simplicity and wildness belonging to the mountains. He silently looked at the man named Lei Zhen and walked through the special passage. David sighed in his heart: "What a pity."
