那团火变得越来越大,离他越来越近。
最终,老人一头倒在泥泞中,无力地咒骂着、叫喊着,试着用手指抓些小泥块扔向火团。
大火烧到了他的双手,变得异常肮脏,他的外衣也被烧焦了,冒着烟。
最终,他只好放弃了。
他最后咳了一下,缓缓地把脸埋入烂泥和灰土中。
突然,他听到身后的路上传来了声音。
他极其缓慢地抬起他那又脏又黑的脸,尽力撑起来向身后的那条路望去。
不远的地方,那只老黑狗正一瘸一拐地尽快向他跑过来。
那只狗的后面还跟着五六个人,也向燃烧的卡车跑来。
我不太清楚后来发生了什么事情,因为没过几天,我就从那里搬走了。
我在佐治亚州布伦斯威克的小服装店多次遭窃,我只好关门停业。
然而3年后,我回到里兹尔赫斯特地区——我的销售点就在那里,我决定停下来,在当地路边的小餐馆喝一杯咖啡。
当我静静地坐在那里,向窗外望去时,我看到这辆被烧过的又黑又旧的运货卡车,此时它就停在当地饮料商店前的街上,一侧已经塌陷坏掉。
两个小伙子正在往它后面装成捆的干草。
我顺着长长的木制装载坡道看去,那里有三四把破旧的椅子,经过风吹日晒,已经摇摆不定。
令我倍感吃惊的是,我看到了那个只有一条腿、满脸笑容的老农夫。
他的拐杖靠在墙上,他则紧紧地抱着那只剩下三条腿、一只耳朵的肮脏的老黑狗。
老黑狗正舔着他的脸,仿佛很喜欢他似的!
