The man and his companions found a golden stone in the desert, burned with a flamethrower, and the stone showed signs of melting, and they determined that it was a rare piece of dog head gold in the world.
The nugget of gold was so big that the two men dug a large pit three meters wide and did not dig it out, they could not move together, tied the rope again, and dragged it with a car, the rope broke twice, and the gold nugget still did not move.
Seeing that it was almost dark, the two quickly collected some dry firewood and lit a bonfire, and when they thought of the golden mountain next to them, they couldn't help but cheer, but how to get the gold out became the key to the problem.
The companion asked the man to go to the town to find an excavator, and he stayed behind to guard the gold, but in the face of such a large piece of gold, the man no longer trusted his companion, he proposed to stay, and the companion had to compromise.
The next day, they distributed water and food, and the companion took most of the water on the grounds that he needed to cool the car engine, and threw a satellite phone to the man, saying that he was relying on this contact.
After his companions left, the man first covered the gold with sand, and then built a small umbrella with a canvas, and guarded the gold alone.
The next day, the man went out to collect dry firewood, only to see the wreckage of a plane. It's a very good camp, it can block the hot sun during the day and the wild beasts at night, and the only problem is that there is no gold here.
The man then removed the parts of the fuselage, dragged them back to the gold, and set up a simple tent around the dead tree, just in time to see the gold, and the man slept peacefully.
As time passed, the scorching sun shone through the cracks, and when he woke up, a layer of blisters had been sunburned on his forehead, and he endured pain and hunger, and knocked down a piece of gold with a stone, the size of a watermelon, enough for him to eat and drink for a lifetime.
The man was considering whether to accept it when he saw it, but then his companion called and advised him to continue to stay, and he soon came, and the man immediately dismissed the idea of leaving after listening to it, although the sunburn on his body had seriously worsened, and the whole person was unrecognizable.
After another day, the cans were finished, and only the last bottle of water remained. Suddenly the man saw a black and white snake next to him, whether poisonous or not, he took out a knife and pounced on it, but the snake did not catch it, and also overturned the water, which was simply worse.
On this day, the man went to the wreckage of the plane again to try to turn over some parts and come back, but saw a woman walking towards this side, he quickly hid in the plane and hid the gold nugget, but the woman still found her.
The man pretended to be an ordinary man picking up rags in the desert, and for safety, he also refused food and water from the woman. The woman deliberately makes a grunting sound of drinking water, making the man hungry and thirsty, and she sees what the man is hiding, so she follows him all the way and can't shake it off.
Soon it was time to reach the men's camp, and it was getting closer and closer to the nuggets. Seeing that this clever woman was about to guess the truth, the man suddenly shot the woman down, and the woman was killed on the spot.
The man ate a full meal with the woman's water and food, and then dug a pit to bury the woman's body.
But a hungry hyena sniffed blood and dragged the body out. The man had no choice but to find a pile of dry firewood and burn the woman's body.
The next morning, the man finally waited for the call of his companion, he asked his companion how long it would be before he arrived, but the companion said that there was something delayed on the road, and asked him to hold on a little longer.
At this time, a car passed not far away, and the man wanted to call for help, but he was afraid that the gold next to him would be robbed, so he could only watch the car leave.
Suddenly, a sandstorm blew up in the desert, and the fragile tent could not resist the wind at all, and was instantly swept into the sky. The man could not avoid it, and was stuck in the abdomen by a branch, and cried out to him in pain, but even if he was injured like this, the man still had to crawl to find gold.
He pulled aside a bulging pile of sand, touched the gold before lying down in peace, and when he regained a little strength, the man pulled out the branches, trembled and lit the fire, and then burned a can lid red and forcibly disinfected the muzzle of the gun. After doing this, the man passed out again.
In a trance, he saw someone with a crossbow pointed at him, and if he looked more closely, wasn't this the woman who had been killed and burned by himself? Is it an illusion? He seemed to see the woman resurrected from the ashes, her empty eyes flashing with the flames of vengeance.
When the man was a little more sober, he received a call from his companion, who said that he would arrive soon and let the man guard the gold. The man looked around and saw no trace of the woman, but he was still not at ease, and climbed a little to the side of the gold and covered it with sand.
Just then the woman appeared, and the man got up calmly and refused the woman's help. It turned out that this woman was the sister of the man he had killed yesterday, but fortunately the body had been burned, and even the bone scum had been eaten by hyenas.
The woman found no trace of her sister and finally walked away. I don't know how long later, the man once again awoke from his coma, and he found himself surrounded by a fire, which seemed to be the woman who kindly lit it for him before leaving to drive away the hyenas.
But as it gets late, the fire is about to go out, the hyenas are gradually surrounded, the man desperately urges his companion on the phone, but the other end of the phone does not respond to him, the hyena gets closer and closer, and finally rushes up, the man finally looks at the gold nugget, reduced to food for the hyena.
How could a man not have imagined that just when he was being bitten by a hyena, someone with a telescope was admiring in the distance, it was the companion who was delayed on the road, next to him there was a mattress, a fire, and a food can, which seemed to have arrived a few days ago, and the purpose was to drag the man until he died and swallow the gold alone.
After the man's death, his companion drove a small excavator to the side of the gold nugget, took out his gloves and was preparing to work, when suddenly a sharp arrow hit him in the chest, and he fell next to the man's body.
@Mo Xue asked heart
In the movie story "Nuggets", it is not difficult to guess that the archer must be the woman holding a crossbow looking for her sister, the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finches in the back. She may have found gold, or maybe it was just a judgment on the wicked.
The story profoundly explains what is meant by "people who die for money and birds die for food". It can be seen that in the face of the temptation of huge interests, people can do anything!
