Chapter 471, It's Dark
In fact, the most terrible thing about people walking in the desert is loneliness.
So he was especially afraid that when he turned around, Robin would be gone, and just now he was still wondering if Robin had fallen into some quicksand, or like the one filmed in the movie, he had fallen into a place where the treasure was hidden.
After all, writers...... When I'm idle, I love to think cranky.
Walking on the desert, the heat is certain, but to say tired...... Not tired.
Physical fitness determined that it was difficult for Ye Kai to feel tired in this level of activity, but the sweat from the direct sunlight made Ye Kai feel more and more thirsty, and his stomach was also hungry.
So he set up an improvised tent on the leeward side of the dunes and found food from his luggage.
Robin searched for marked stones along the road, as long as he followed the markings and did not fall into a minefield, according to Robin's estimate, he would be able to enter the oasis before nightfall today.
That is, where the camels drink.
Robin quickly ran back, lifted the corner of the tent and stepped inside.
The place in the Sahara Desert where the sun is shining and the shade is literally two worlds, and the temperature drops all at once, and Robin gets in and tears off his headscarf and sun hat, his head shining with sweat.
Robin's appearance can only be said to be average, but his skin is very good, similar to the action female stars who make movies in Europe and the United States, and his temperament can be called heroic.
took the mineral water that Ye Kai put out, twisted the cap of the bottle and drank a few sips before saying, "The road is right, don't worry." ”
"I'm not worried. ”
After so many years, the government here will definitely clear a few roads out, and this route is not a great road, even if there is no so-called secret route, Ye Kai believes that there are very few mines here.
Otherwise, the camels would have been blown up and killed, and it would be the turn of the camel dealers to catch them for meat.
However, you should not let your guard down, and you should still be careful when walking.
Robin said what he said to Ye Kai just now, and it was like saying it to herself, it was the first time she had walked this road alone, and she also brought a photographer who seemed to be very well-known, so she had always felt a little pressure in her heart.
Ye Kai has always had the habit of putting snacks in his backpack, and he also put a lot of them this time.
Robin's eyes lit up as he watched Ye Kai release chicken legs, chicken feet, slices of meat, and other things that were not commonly seen in the Ayon region...... She hadn't eaten anything in a long time.
Ever since she came to Ayon, she has sometimes felt like a person from the last century.
"Can you eat them all?" she asked.
Ye Kai finally took out a pack of biscuits and said: "If you can eat it, of course you can eat it, but it is not easy to put the things that are dismantled back in the bag, so don't waste it." ”
A lot of things are bought from Egypt, because sometimes Ye Kai eats a little bit himself.
Chicken feet and drumsticks were brought from China, in fact, there are a lot of instant noodles, but they were eaten by Ye Kai when they were in Egypt, otherwise they don't have to worry about this desert, just eat instant noodles.
The main meal is the same flatbread as the northern Chinese bun.
This kind of thing is everywhere in the Sahara, and the people in each region call it differently but the practice is much the same, in Egypt Yekai called this thing Aishi, and Ayon called it flatbread.
Sheltering from the sun for the two heaviest hours of the day, the two men packed their bags and moved on.
Ye Kai held the camera, ready to find an angle to shoot at any time, while Robin carefully recalled the route...... Actually, you don't have to, as long as you follow the arrows carved in the stone, you won't have a problem.
The sun visibly moved westward, gradually turning fiery red.
The sunset in North Africa seems to be a little redder than that of China, it should be due to the surrounding environment, Ye Kai has never been to the west of China, and I don't know if the Anxi region can also see such a sunset.
The sunset was beautiful, but Ye Kai only took a few photos in a hurry and felt like he was on the road with Robin.
Due to Robin's unskilled business, the speed of the two of them was actually slower than the expected trip, and Robin couldn't say how much slower it was, so the two could only bury their heads in the road.
Fortunately, the markings that can be seen from time to time indicate that the route is correct.
After taking a photo, Ye Kai caught up with Robin and said, "Where is the most beautiful sunset you have ever seen?"
"Sunset? ”
Ye Kai said:
"Then when you go back, you must go to the Nile River in Egypt to see, the sunset on the Nile is really beautiful, and I will show you the pictures I took when you get to the place in a while. ”
Ye Kai gave Robin a smile at the sunset on the Nile, the fiery red sun reflected on the Nile, and also shone on the ancient temple on the West Bank......
"I'll definitely check it out...... But you're really not tired at all when you're carrying so many things? I didn't even see you gasp for breath. ”
Ye Kai shook his head and said:
"I'm not tired, it's probably because I work out regularly. ”
The two hurried to see the oasis that Robin had mentioned, but although they could see it, it would take a long time to walk there, and the last distance was even flashlighted.
When he was about to arrive at the oasis, Ye Kai suddenly turned off the flashlight.
Robin was startled and whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, we might have scared some of the little ones...... I'll take you, and you can just follow me...... Excuse me, there are no mines here, right?"
"Nope. ”
Robin only felt a pair of warm hands grasp him, leading him towards the front...... The temperature of this hand was not too high, but it dispelled Robin's increasingly cold heart.
It wasn't because of the plummeting temperature in the desert, but that Ye Kai inexplicably turned off the flashlight.
The starlight in the sky was not visible, and there was not much to see, Robin could only be sure that there must be no danger around him, and the road ahead could only be faintly seen.
Ye Kai is different, his eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people, such a dark night is not as bright as day in his eyes, but it is definitely clearer than a person with night vision goggles.
Good eyesight is completely different from having good eyesight with the help of instruments.
He'd seen it before...... Wolf.
The bright light of the flashlight stimulated them, and now the four wolves were slowly approaching the two of them, with no fierce light in their eyes, more curiosity...... But it's still so weird in the dark.
Ye Kai didn't show timidity, and led Robin to walk forward, a height of more than one meter and eight meters looked so tall among the desert wolves.
The Desert Wolf quickly retreated.
I don't know if they think that Ye Kai is a hard stubble that is more difficult to gnaw, or if the natural affinity plays a role, making them feel that Ye Kai is not a food or a threat, so they automatically retreat.
Ye Kai felt that it should be the latter.
The flashlight still won't turn on, and as they spend more and more time in the night, both of them are getting used to moving forward in the dark. Ye Kai also let go of Robin's hand.
Robin looked at his right hand for a moment, a little lost.
But he quickly picked himself up and asked, "What happened just now?"
"It's nothing, put the tent up, it's too cold and too cold right now. ”
