1422: C1422 Islands

C1422 Islands

When the boat came ashore, it didn't head straight for the center of the river. Instead, it headed upstream, right next to us.

We sat in the cabin and watched the bare mountains and low squares on the other side.

Not far ahead, an island appeared in the middle of the river. On the island, there were rows and rows of Korean style villas.

"This island is called Yu Yi Island. The houses on the island are the villas of the generals of North Korea. The people living here are all at the level of general and their families." The captain said, "The reason they are staying here is to prevent a war, so that their families can retreat and come directly across the river to us in a few minutes. Also, if we build it here, next to the border, the enemy aircraft would not dare to bomb it, which might cause some trouble if it lands on our side. "

Hearing this, I remembered that the Yongbyon nuclear base in North Korea isn't too far from the border. It seems to be due to this idea as well.

There were groups of two or three people walking around the island. There were women, children, and soldiers of the People's Army who were patrolling the island with guns on their backs. Moreover, I clearly saw a few hidden castles.

F * ck, these are all friendly countries, all are friendship condensed from blood, is there a need to be like this?

Of course, I knew they were on their guard to see their people die and prevent them from coming to our side. Our side would not run that way.

The boat kept going upstream until it reached the end of the island, then turned left and headed downstream.

That would mean sailing between the island and North Korean land, into the river of North Korea. North Korea's land on one side, North Korea's island on the other.

I know, from the agreement between China and the Republic of Korea, the Yalu River doesn't have a central line. As long as the boat travels on the river, as long as it doesn't touch the other party's land, it's fine no matter how we drive.

The captain slowed the speed of the boat. To our left was the land of Korea, less than 30 meters away, and to our right was the Fingerwing Island, which was filled with the villa of the general. The distance between the two was less than 30 meters. North Korea left and right.

Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong looked at the mainland by the river in silence. Jin Jingxiu's gaze was a little dazed, while Qiu Tong's gaze was a little stiff.

At this moment, two soldiers from the People's Army who carried guns on their backs waved at us. I waved back at them and said, "Look, how friendly they are towards us —"

Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong raised their heads to look at the soldiers of the People's Army on the shore.

"Friendship," said the captain. "They want things."

I looked at them. They were rushing toward the shore, and the captain was looking at us now.

I looked at Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong. Jin Jingxiu nodded.

"Prepare cigarettes for them!" the captain said.

Qiu Tong took out all the cigarettes she had bought, five of them, and handed them to me. I handed them to the captain of the boat, then quietly took out my camera and flipped open the lens cap.

The cruise ship slowly approached the shore. It stopped about a meter away from the shore. The captain of the ship had full control of the area.

Two Korean soldiers came over and stood there saying something in Korean.

I didn't understand. I looked at Qiu Tong and Jin Jingxiu.

"Are they asking if there are any cigarettes? Ask the captain! " Qiu Tong told me softly.

Jin Jingxiu lowered her head to look at the shore. Her face appeared to be somewhat nervous, as if she was involuntarily afraid of the soldiers of the People's Army who were wearing military uniforms. It was as if she had received some provocation many years ago, and this provocation had something to do with those who were wearing military uniforms.

It was understandable that since she had left the north, she had to escape the pursuit of the soldiers of the People's Army. When she crossed the line, she must have been trying her best to avoid the soldiers of the People's Army. At that time, she must have been extremely terrified, because she knew that once she was captured, what awaited her would be death. Anyone sent back from the north or across the border to China would be killed without exception.

At this moment, as a traitor of this country, Jin Jingxiu was only a meter away from the violent machine of this country. This country was her homeland, and this soldier of the People's Army was one of her compatriots.

I smiled at the two young soldiers, who smiled back at me in a friendly way, and then fixed their eyes on the cigarette in the captain's hand.

The captain threw five cigarettes onto the shore. The young soldiers put down their guns and lowered their heads to take a look at their cigarettes, wearing a happy smile on their faces.

Jin Jingxiu raised her head and looked at them, her expression somewhat dazed as she bit her lips tightly.

I quietly raised the camera in my hand.

Suddenly, one of the soldiers bellowed and threw away the cigarette in his hand. He then quickly picked up the submachine gun on the ground and aimed it at me.

Stunned, I held the camera up halfway.

The captain hurriedly signaled for me to put away my camera, and spoke to them in Korean for a while before they slowly cleared their hostility. They put down their guns, picked up their cigarettes, nodded at us, and headed straight up the mountain.

I heaved a sigh of relief, as did Qiu Tong.

"Bro, you're courting death. How dare you take a picture?" The captain scolded me.

"Damn, five cigarettes for a photo." I said, unconvinced.

"Smoke back to smoke, smoke is given by you on your own accord, it can be considered a gift of friendship, if you don't like it, it's charity, you just have to watch them closely, taking pictures is absolutely out of the question, they'll worry if you send them back online after taking the photo, once their superiors discover you, then they'll be finished, they'll definitely die themselves, and will implicate their families." North Korea's policy is a terrible one, with a single person committing a crime and his entire family suffering. " the captain said.

Hearing the captain's words, Jin Jingxiu's entire body suddenly trembled, and her face suddenly paled.

It was as if she had thought of something, as if she was terrified at the thought of something.

"Aunt Jin, what happened to you?" Qiu Tong looked at Jin Jingxiu.

Jin Jingxiu's body trembled for a moment before she quickly regained her calm. She looked at me, then looked at Qiu Tong, trying her best to smile. "It's okay. I'm fine. I was just scared by what the captain just said!"

Qiu Tong nodded. "That sounds quite scary!"

I looked at Jin Jingxiu and said nothing.

The captain continued to move forward, saying, "It's not a bluff, it's true. You think I made it up to scare you? "

Jin Jingxiu said, "I know what you said is true. I believe it!"

The cruise ship continued to move slowly along the Korean land, and the captain introduced us as he sailed: "Look, there is a cannon on the top of the mountain in front of us. It was built by the Japanese in the past. Look, this crappy pier before us, this is the so-called military port of Korea, which was also built by the Japanese in the past. Also, look at this row of white houses, this is the women's barracks in Korea.

The guns are pointed at us, but they won't shoot at us. Although we are sailing in their river, as long as our boat doesn't land, nothing will happen. Also, they can tell at a glance that you guys are wearing orange life jackets, they are tourists. "

The captain was a competent part-time tour guide. The two films began to talk nonstop.

Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong had not spoken a word for a long time. Their gazes were heavy as they gazed at the desolate country on the other side of the river, as well as the ash-yellow mountain ranges in the winter.

The ship continued to sail, crossing the river between the Fingers and the Korean mainland. The river in front of them opened up, and for a while, no one could see the soldiers carrying guns on their backs.

In the middle of the river ahead, a small boat with a canopy was swaying.

"What does this ship do?" I asked the captain.

"North Korean and rural collective boats. They come out to fish and at the same time sell their specialties to tourists on the river. The fish they fish and the money they earn from selling their specialties must be handed back to the collective." The captain of the boat said, "Do you want to go and take a look?"

I nodded.

The captain slowly drove towards the boat and approached it. I could clearly see the people on the boat: one young, one male, one female. The older one was male, while the younger one was a teenage girl. They were all dressed in Korean national costume.

From the looks of it, it should be the father and daughter pair.

As expected, I guessed correctly. The captain said, "This is a pair of father and son. Father usually comes out to fish and sell stuff. Today is Sunday, so the children probably won't be attending class. We'll come out together to help."

As we spoke, the captain joined our boat to the boat with a noose and called out to the man in a loud voice, something they seemed familiar with.

The man looked simple and honest as he laughed.

The girl was shy and hid behind her father's back, looking at us timidly with curious eyes.2

After she finished looking at me and the boss, her gaze landed on Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong. Her face was filled with envy.

Jin Jingxiu and Qiu Tong both smiled at the girl in a friendly way, and Qiu Tong took out two large bags of food and handed them over.

The girl looked up at the adults and did not move.

Qiu Tong smiled and said something in the language of the court. The man nodded gratefully and then said something to the girl. The girl also nodded happily.

Then, Qiu Tong took a step forward and loaded two bags of food onto the boat.

The girl approached Qiu Tong and said something in the language of the court, as if she was thanking Qiu Tong.

The girl's voice was pleasant to hear and she was very pretty.

Qiu Tong reached out to touch the girl's hair, then lowered her head and kissed her forehead, then parted. Turning around, I saw that Qiu Tong's eyes were slightly red.

Jin Jingxiu was sitting in the cabin of the ship, watching the girl.

Seeing Jin Jingxiu's eyes on that girl, I suddenly thought of Jin Jingxiu over 30 years ago. At that time, she was older than this girl, but she was also fishing on the Yalu River. This scene would probably make her think of herself, that Yalu River, and the events that happened on that river.

Then the man and the captain were saying something in the language of the court again, and the man was opening the hatch, and I saw quite a few things inside, and the man was starting to take them out, the tiger bone wine, the ginseng, the grass eggs.

The captain said to us, "This is their specialty, do you want it? Tiger Bone Wine cost 100 yuan per bottle, ginseng 300 yuan per box, and grass eggs cost 20 yuan per row. Both are in renminbi. "

"The price is not cheap! Ask him, cheaper! " "No," I said.

"What he said didn't count, it was all set by the collective farm and the money sold was not expensive. He only earned points and paid them back with a bit of money. Of course, the more they sell, the more points they get! " the captain said.

"What do they want with the yuan?" "No," I said.

"The border regions can be exchanged for money, you don't have to worry about that!" The captain laughed.

The father and daughter looked at us eagerly.

I couldn't help but feel sorry for him and said, "How about we buy one of each and support our fellow North Koreans!"

At this moment, Jin Jingxiu suddenly spoke. She spoke in Mandarin, speaking to the captain, "Tell them, I've bought all the things in the hold of the ship. I want them all!"

"Ah —" The captain was taken aback. He looked at Jin Jingxiu and asked, "Big sister, are you joking?"

Qiu Tong and I were also shocked. We looked at each other but didn't say anything.

"I will only say this once!" Jin Jingxiu said.

The captain's mouth was half open. He looked at Jin Jingxiu and then hurriedly spoke to the man.

Of course, Jin Jingxiu could understand the language. It was just that she pretended that she didn't know how to speak it.

The man listened, excited and excited, and then carried the things out to our boat and began to count them.
