A Mercenary’s War

After a night of rest in Malakal, Gao Yang did not rush to leave the next day, he had to purchase something for himself first.

On the grassland, many small things that are not obvious are more important than the role of guns, such as tinders, kettles, and some anti-insect drugs. In most cases, a knife is more useful than a pistol.

Gao Yang came in a hurry, many things were not prepared, so he had to purchase some necessary things before he could set off, but these things that are often used in daily life would not be difficult to buy, Gao Yang did not delay for too long I bought everything I needed.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Gao Yang arrived at the airport where he rented a plane on time. Of course, the so-called airport is no different from the one he saw last time. There is still only one dirt runway.

There is no tower control and no air control. Gao Yang can fly if he wants to fly. He threw the purchased things on the plane and checked the plane again. Looking at the weather is good, Gao Yang directly drove the plane to the sky. .

Although he did learn how to fly a plane in the United States, Gao Yang was too early to get a flight certificate, but he was also formally trained anyway, and already had the ability to fly alone, and most of the pilots in Malakal did not even have I have learned how to fly an airplane formally, and flying a plane here does not require a flight license.

The first time he drove alone to heaven, Gao Yang was a little nervous at the beginning, but the nervousness soon became excited.

After flying far away, he looked from the sky to the ground. The farmland is no longer visible, replaced by large areas of grassland, looking at the familiar scenery. Coupled with the possibility of seeing the long-established Akuri tribe, Gao Yang's mood became more and more excited.

Gao Yang needs to fly for several hours to reach the coordinates for meeting Catherine, and as he has been flying east, the landscape on the ground has also changed, from grasslands with few trees to savannas where some trees exist. And as Gao Yang gets closer to the destination. There are more and more trees on the ground.

When the height is not far from the coordinates you want to go to, the ground is basically forest terrain. Although there is not a lot of open space, there is not enough space for him to land.

Although the place to go will be the edge of the tropical rainforest, there will be fewer places to control the landing after arriving, but Gao Yang does not have to worry about the problem of finding a landing site. Because the film crew that Catherine participates in temporarily needs to be transported by air, they are all airlifted by plane, so there is a cleaned temporary runway near their station.

There is only one coordinate. After really flying over the coordinate area, you still need to carefully search for the ground reference object to really find the place. Looking at the GPS indicator has arrived, Gao Yang lowered the altitude and began to hover in the air.

After adjusting the radio on the plane from the air traffic control frequency to the frequency given by Catherine, Gao Yang grabbed the talker and yelled, "I am Gao Yang. Catherine, are you listening?"

"Catherine received it and saw you long ago. The call to you did not answer many times, what happened."

Gao Yang said embarrassedly: "Sorry, you know I'm a newbie, I forgot to adjust the frequency of the radio."

"I'm waiting for you to pick you up on the ground. Is there a clear space in front of your nose? I'm in the car here. Did you see the red buggy?"

Gao Yang glanced at Catherine's instructions. He immediately found an open space, lowered its height, and Gao Yang could also see a red car at one end of the open space.

"I saw you, but there is a question, this open space is too small, there is no bigger place for me to land?"

Gao Yang is a novice after all, looking down from the air, he feels that the open space is too small.

Catherine said helplessly: "This is our temporary airport. The open space has been cleared, there are no bushes, no stones and potholes. If you want to land in another place, it is not so easy. The length of the open space is 400 meters, and the length that can be used as a runway reaches at least 300 meters. I think it is enough for you. "

The open space is irregularly rectangular with one end wide and one narrow end. According to Catherine's data, it is indeed high enough to land. The problem is that the open space is really small.

There can be no more suitable landing site, Gao Yang can only land, circled in the air a few times, meditating on the essentials of landing several times, and then Gao Yang turned his heart across, and finally landed.

When Gao Yang landed the plane peacefully, Catherine was already waiting by the car with a man. When Gao Yang turned off the engine and jumped down, the two quickly greeted Gao Yang.

After a polite hug with Catherine, Catherine pointed to the man next to her and said, "Introduce you, this is Martin F. Craig, our sponsor of this trip is also our leader, he Strongly demand to pick you up with me. "

The man immediately stretched out his hand to Gao Yang and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Gao, it's great that you can come. The whole film crew is looking forward to your arrival,"

Gao Yang smiled and shouted: "Mr. Craig, thank you for coming to pick me up."

"Oh, just call me Martin. Haha, Mr. Gao. Of course I hope to see you earlier, because if we can get the picture we want this time, you are the key person."

After a laugh, Martin stretched out his hand and made a welcoming gesture, saying: "Get in the car, Mr. Gao, our camp is about a mile from here, and we will be there soon."

At this moment, Catherine smiled at Martin slightly and whispered: "Martin, can you go back to the camp first, I want to take a walk with Gao San."

Martin made a sudden expression, then he slapped his head and said, "Ah, I'm such a stupid guy. Of course, you can walk back slowly, not too far anyway, just pay attention to safety, hey , Gao, give me something and put it up. "

Regarding Catherine's request, Gao Yang naturally would not have any opinions, put the brought things on the car, just put the shotgun on his back just in case.

The enthusiastic Martin quickly drove away, waiting for Gao Yang and Catherine, trying to find a topic, Gao Yang pointed to the plane and smiled: "Will there be no problem throwing here?"

Catherine smiled and said, "If your question is about being stolen, then you can rest assured."

Gao Yang also smiled and said: "Well, I just casually said, hi, Catherine, you are beautiful today, I mean, your condition looks good."

Catherine regained the outdoor appearance that Gao Yang first met with her. She wore shirts, shorts, and outdoor boots. She did n’t use powdered daisies. She then bundled her hair back, looking fresh and beautiful. The most important thing is to look at It looks very healthy.

Hearing high praises, Catherine spread her hands and smiled: "Well, it seems that I am more suitable for living in the wild."

After casually making a joke, Catherine folded her smile and said to Gao Yang: “Let ’s walk and say, it ’s not appropriate for Martin to wait for them for too long. This is the way. The reason why I let you go back with me is Because I have to tell you something in advance. "

Gao Yang curiously said: "What's wrong?"

Catherine sighed slightly, saying: "Martin did not panic. Now the whole film crew is really looking forward to your arrival, but to be precise, it should be Martin who is most looking forward to your arrival, how to say, they I hope you can be on TV. "

Gao Yang stunned, said: "On TV? How is this possible!"

Catherine exhaled and said: "Of course I know that you can't want to be on TV. Okay, let me start from the beginning. Martin is an independent producer. He used to work. He is good at making documentaries. In South Sudan, it was Martin himself who planned to make a documentary about animals and the environment. To recover the cost, he had to sell the documentary. "

After speaking, Catherine looked at Gao Yang and said: "There are too many documentaries about animals now, this market is limited, and if there is a lack of a hot spot that is particularly concerned, then it can be foreseen that such documentaries will not be too good. Sell."

Gao Yang frowned: "I understand this, I think, I probably guessed what you want to say, did Martin plan to photograph the Akuri tribe after discovering the Akuri tribe?"

Catherine nodded: "Yes, that's it. There are almost no real primitive tribes in this world, and the Akuri tribe is undoubtedly the most primitive kind, just like a living fossil. ~ Www.mtlnovel. com ~ Obviously, if the Akuri tribe does n’t want people to take pictures of their lives, Martin ca n’t make it, and with you, it ’s all different. ”

After careful consideration, Gao Yang said, "This is not really a big problem, I can ask."

Catherine shook her head: "No, Martin didn't just want to shoot the Akuri tribe, he wanted to shoot in more detail. I didn't tell him completely about your experience, I just chose a small part to tell him, but this is still Aroused his interest, think about it, a modern man accepted as a formal member of the primitive tribe, this is very interesting, and with you, you can fully present the life of the Akuri tribe in front of the world, This means a big sale documentary, so Martin hopes you can personally take a photo. "

Gao Yang immediately shook his head like a rattle and said, "You should understand that this is absolutely impossible."

Catherine nodded: "Of course I understand and told Martin, but I have a lot to say, so he still retains his fantasy."

Gao Yang smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that Martin is destined to be disappointed." (To be continued)
