অষ্টম অধ্যায়: মহাপ্রলয়ের সূচনা — অধ্যায় ১৫৯: ত্রাতা

jing huan tar drishti theke phire dekhlo, ekjon byakti khub druto pae egiye asche.

kache esei se desk-er samner kormochari-ke utshukbhave jiggesh korlo, "lokti kothay?"

"oi je othay," kormochari-ti lok yun yi-er dike angul nirdesh korlo.

jing huan obak hoye gelo, lok yun yi ki bhabe agei bujechilo je tara take khujte asbe?

druto doure asa neta-o khub udgrib chilen, tara sohoje lok yun yi-er samne chole gelen ebong kotha bolar jonno take tene niye jabar chesta korlen.

takhon onnanno byaktira-o byapar-ti bujte pere taratari egiye ese bollo, "amra toh onek age esechi, emon ki kotha ache ja amra ekshathe sunte parbo na?"

"sotti, ar amader line-e o rakha hoyeche, age asar ekta niyom toh thaka uchit, ki bolen?"

charpasher asantushtir awaj etoi besi chilo je sei byakti-ti thakte badhyo hollen ebong ekta muchhe fela gham muche bollen, "apnara keu birokho hoben na, amra ekta ekta kore kotha bolbo. apnara sobaiei toh nam thikana register korechen, apnader somoshya gulo amader jana ache."

"tabe eto kotha bole ki labh, druto sadharon bhandar theke shomogri bantan kore din, ebong disaster victim-der kothay ashroy dewa hobe ta janiye din." zhou meng nije theke kotha-ti tule bollo.

tar moner ektai chinta chilo ki kore tar tari bari fera jay, kono ajana ba bakwaash byapar niye tar matha bhamar kono ichcha chhilo na. tarpor bikel gariye andharkare bashay firoar pothe jodi kono mutation howa udbhid ba prani-er samne porte hoy, tobe ekta boro bipod hobe.

"xiao li, apnara sobar sathe ektu kotha bolun," asar lokti lok yun yi ebong tar shonggoider dekhe sohashe lok yun yi-er dike takiye bollo, "ekjon ekta kaj kori, amra prothome bhitore giye ektu alochona kore ni, asun e dike asun."

lok yun yi-o pichh-pa holena, se sohashe jing huan-ke tene samner dike agiye gelo, ebong tar pichhe pichhe zhao jun ar onnanno sobai druto tarai korlo.

"amar nam guo yue guang, apnara ei je ekhuni je data gulo diyechhen, se gulo niye amar kichu jiggesh korar chhilo," guo yue guang nijer porichoy diyei mul bisoye chole gelen, "apnader ekhon ar koto lok baki ache, koto jon sokriy sromik ache, apnara ki nirman kaaj-e angsho nite parben?"

tar proshno gulo ekta por ekta berote laglo, lok yun yi tar chinta dharar sathe tal miliye ekti ekti kore uttor dilo, ebong dan zi hang-er ojhor drishti-ti upekkha korlo.

"…motamuti poristhiti ei rokom, onekei nijer nijer khetre dokkho, nirman kaaj korte kono somoshya hobe na," tar kothar sur palte se abar jog korlo, "amader jaiga-ti shomotol ar khola, ebong ebar khoykhotir poristhiti khubi gurutor, tai sobai notun bari toiri korar jonno khub utshahi."

bastobik ba manoshik je kono karonei, lok yun yi shob kichu guo yue guang-er samne tule dhorlo, se ekhon khub nirbhoye bolte pare je tarai ekhon sobcheye bhalo choice.

"ha ha, aro ekta subidha-r kotha apni bolen ni, apnader obosthan-ti-o khub gurutto-purno," guo yue guang hashte hashte bollo.

lok yun yi-o hese uthlo, dujone mile jore hese uthlen, jar fole onnanno sobai kiser moto ki bujte parlo na.

"tobe amader ki hobe?" zhao jun udgrib hoye jiggesh korlo, tara ebong lok yun yi eki jaiga theke asni.

tader jonno, ei punor-nirmaner por k ki hobe ta khub ekta matto chilo na. zhao jun-er jiboner ovigota take shikhieche jodi keu jibone onnyer upor nirvor na kore, tobe tar theke bhalo kichu hoy na, se kkhono punor-nirmaner sujog niye kichu pete chayni.

guo yue guang proshno korar por bujte parlo je tara eki daler pakhira noy, tate muhurte se obak hoye gelo: "tobe ki apnader o dui hajar lok ache?"

"ha," zhao jun ektu theme tarpor byakhya korlo, "amra upokantho erakar krishok, ekhane boyosko loker shongkha ektu besi."

etar mane holo tader theke khub guruttopurno ba bhari sromer asha kora cholbe na, karun tader sharirik shokti simabuddho.

kintu lok yun yi tader subidha-ti khuje ber kore prastab dilo, "tobe ki ei boyosko lokgulo tarunyo-kale krishi kaaj korechilen?"

bassthan abar toiri kora toh shudhu punor-nirmaner shuru matro, bhobishyote aboshyei aro khaddho shhoshyo utpadon korte hobe, ebong ei bisoye tarun der ovigota thak-i emon kono mane nei.

guo yue guang eta shune tar chokh duhana ujjol hoye uthlo, ebong chire uthlo: "apnara toh amar sobcheye boro uddharta!"
