Chapter Eighty-Six: Experiencing Life
At the end of March, the crew officially set off for Western Xinjiang.
The group came from the prosperous imperial capital to the desolate Shanshan (four sounds).
Shanshan ancient name Loulan, the Han Dynasty changed its name to Shanshanguo, in the Qing Dynasty Qianlong years, was included in Turpan, and later there was a person named Zuo Zongtang, led the troops to quell the chaos, only to officially include this place in the territory.
Since then, Shanshan has become an inseparable part of the Celestial Empire.
Bordered by Hami to the east, the Tien Shan Mountains to the north, the mysterious Kumuta Desert to the south, and the famous Flaming Mountains to the west, this place is a must on the Silk Road.
After the reopening, with its peculiar natural features, it attracted a large number of tourists and a lot of crews.
In 2005, Xu Laowei came here and filmed Seven Swords, and in 2009, Ning Hao also came here to make a movie that had never been seen in the Celestial Empire.
When I arrived at ZS County, it was already evening, and the blood-red sun hung in the sky.
Ning Hao organized everyone to settle down, but did not arrange rooms for Zhou Jin and Huang Bo.
Zhou Jin went to ask him what was going on, and the thing scratched his head, pulled down a tent from the big truck pulling the equipment and threw it to him.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Jin subconsciously continued.
Ning Hao beckoned Huang Bo over and said, "I want to come and go, but the two of you still have a little bit of loneliness in the northwest." ”
"So what?" Zhou Jin felt bad.
Ning Hao said: "So I contacted a nearby mine, and the two of you will set up a tent there this month, experience life in a no-man's land, and focus on loneliness and vicissitudes." ”
Zhou Jin looked at the tent in his hand, and then at Huang Bo, feeling incredulous, "Are you serious?
Huang Bo touched his bare head and said, "Okay, one month is one month." ”
"You're going to agree?" Zhou Jin shouted: "We're here to film, not to play PUBG, okay?!"
"Besides, if you really want to play PUBG, what about the materials and weapons?"
Ning Hao looked confident and said, "Don't worry, I have already arranged it." ”
Saying that, he waved his hand and called the brothers Baduo and Wang Shuangbao, "The two of them are going to practice driving a big truck in a no-man's land this month, and they will give you food, drink, and clothing." ”
Baduo and Wang Shuangbao also patted their chests and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely not treat you badly this month, I will go to see you every day, okay." ”
Huang Bo said as if he was fine: "I'm afraid of a ball, isn't it just a month, my eyes will pass as soon as I open and close, and we can be regarded as dedicating ourselves to art." ”
Zhou Jinxin said, dedicate yourself to art with a hammer, you have already killed pigs for art, what do you want?
But seeing that they all said this, Zhou Jin couldn't refuse, but he was still a little uneasy, "Do you promise to come every day?"
The two brothers hurriedly said, "We promise." ”
"Well, okay. Zhou Jin agreed with a toothache.
Ning Hao saw that the two of them had been dealt with, and said, "While it's still dark, you guys should hurry up and set off, you can experience one more night." ”
Bardo opened the car door and said, "Okay, I'll send you there, everything is ready for you." ”
Huang Bo pulled Zhou Jin into the car, the truck started slowly, and Zhou Jin looked at ZS County anxiously.
Although this place is a little deserted and not as prosperous as the imperial capital, it has a bit of a modern civilization.
The hell knows what the mines here look like.
Huang Bo put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Don't worry, brother, when you get there, Brother Bo covers you, it's not like we haven't lived in the countryside." ”
After about 40 minutes of driving, the big truck stopped.
Baduo and Wang Shuangbao jumped down and said, "This is the place, while there is still a light, you quickly set up your tent." ”
Huang Bo got out of the car, "Didn't you say that you contacted a mine, you can't live there?"
Wang Shuangbao smiled embarrassedly, "The mine has been abandoned and no one lives there." ”
Seeing that Zhou Jin wanted to scold, he hurriedly said: "But that house should still be good, maybe it can still be used." ”
On the side, Bado pulled the tent down from the truck, and then unloaded two sacks, and said, "The supplies are here, flashlights, food, and use." ”
"Okay, let's stay and see. Huang Bo carried two sacks to himself and walked to the mine.
Zhou Jin hugged the tent and followed behind, turned around and shouted at Wang Shuangbao, "You remember to come tomorrow." ”
Wang Shuangbao waved his hand and said loudly: "Don't worry, this is the highway, we will definitely come tomorrow." ”
The big truck ran away, and Zhou Jin only saw two red taillights, and then walked on the mine with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
After walking for a while, Huang Bo stopped, "This can't be the house they are talking about, right?"
There were only stones and weeds on this mine, and only the half-collapsed dilapidated house in front of it.
The two walked in, and it was full of rocks and weeds. It is said that it is a house, but in fact, two of the four walls are down, and the roof is also leaky, and when you look up, you can see the stars.
The sun had completely set by this time, leaving only the dark blue night sky, and the mountains in the distance were hazy, and only black outlines could be seen.
"Damn," Huang Bo kicked against the wall, "where did this grandson find such a place?" ”
Zhou Jin put the tent down and began to clean up the stones and weeds in the house.
"It's okay, isn't it just a month, isn't that what you said, your eyes will pass as soon as you open and close. Zhou Jin deliberately squeezed him with words.
Huang Bo scolded: "How did I know that this place is so broken, there is no water, no electricity, and there is not even a house." ”
"Didn't you give us a tent, if you come, you will be safe, don't you say that you dedicate yourself to art?"
"I'll give you a twist essence!" Huang Bo felt that he had been deceived.
Zhou Jin threw all the stones in the house and cleaned up a place.
"Come, let's set up the tent first. ”
"Damn," Huang Bo was still very angry, "how can you ride this black light?"
Zhou Jin said: "Aren't there two sacks, there should be flashlights in them." ”
Huang Bo kicked the sack over, fumbled inside for a long time, and took out a flashlight.
In this way, the two of them scolded and set up the tent by the light of the flashlight.
The temperature difference between day and night in western Xinjiang is very large, people die of heat during the day, freeze to death at night, and when the night wind blows, it whines and screams, and it is cold to death.
Huang Bo said worriedly: "Will we blow our tent away at night?"
Zhou Jin thought about it and felt that it was possible.
So he picked up the stones that had just been thrown out, and then pressed the corners of the tent.
The two of them got into the tent, dragged the sacks in, and zipped the tent up.
With such a small enclosed space and a flashlight shining, the two finally felt a sense of security.
As the saying goes, if you are forced and can't resist, then you can only enjoy it.
At this moment, Huang Bo and Zhou Jin were self-defeating, so they had to face the front seriously.
"Let's take a look at what those grandsons have in store for us. ”
Huang Bo said as he poured out all the contents of the sack and began to count the supplies.
Two fleece sleeping bags, two flashlights, two firewood knives, two aluminum lunch boxes, some medicines, four bottles of mineral water, and a bag of noodles.
This is all the materials that Ning Hao prepared for them.
", give us a hair for the noodles, do you still expect us to eat below in this place?"
Huang Bo was indignant, he thought that Ning Hao was a pervert, but he didn't expect him to be so perverted.
"When you say that, I'm really a little hungry," Zhou Jin remembered, they hadn't even eaten dinner.
Huang Bo looked at the noodles in his hand, did he really want to cook noodles in this place?
Come on, they're here to film, not to play a survival game.
