39. Destination
Lin Zhendong remembered that a Dongying man wrote a book called "The Sinking of Dongying", which told about the entire four islands of Dongying, which sank to the bottom of the sea due to the movement of the earth's crust.
In fact, Toei was originally located in an earthquake zone, and if one day the four islands sank due to an earthquake, it is actually normal to think about it.
Not only earthquakes, but also melting glaciers and rising sea levels, as well as a number of other reasons, there is a high probability that the four islands of Toei will sink.
But he still couldn't go to Cheng Dongying because he didn't have a passport and a visa.
Therefore, if he can't go abroad, he can only go around the country, so he thinks about whether to go to the Himalayas, or go to the Taklamakan Desert, the former has a certain degree of unknownness, maybe it will cause serious climate change, as for the latter, there is so much sand in the desert, it doesn't matter if there is less.
So, after submitting an application for a private passport to the Exit and Entry Administration Department of the Public Security Bureau, he went to Western Xinjiang with Tang Yuan.
It departed at nearly 12 o'clock in the morning, and the plane landed at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
The two took the airport bus, got out of the terminal, and walked all the way along the airport highway to the city.
Tang Yuan looked very excited, kept staring out the window, and said: "Brother Dong, I thought Dihua was very desolate, but when I came, I realized that it was no different from the mainland cities, the greening was very good, and there were a lot of trees and flowers." ”
Lin Zhendong University has been to Guangdong for four years, Jianghan, Jinling, Beiping, South China, East China, Central China, North China, and Northwest China, but the southwest and northeast have not set foot in it, and the western Xinjiang has not been there.
"yes, the greenery is really good. He coped casually, remembering the Tour of Taklamakan Automotocross Rally.
He remembers that the race started in May and ended at the end of June, and it seems that it was not held this year, and if it is held next year, no matter how busy it is, you must come and enjoy the scenery of the Tour de Tower Rally, even if you don't participate, just be a spectator, just watch the drivers race, it's worth the trip.
This year, I didn't have that chance.
"Brother Dong, what are you thinking?" Tang Yuan visibly noticed that he was absent-minded.
"I was thinking, let's wait and rent a Wrangler and go around. Lin Zhendong turned his head to look at her and smiled.
She was excited: "Okay, okay, can I drive it later?"
"Do you have a driver's license?"
"Of course there is, I took the exam after the college entrance examination, and I usually drove it occasionally, and my skills are not bad, and I am definitely not a female driver. She swore an oath.
"We'll talk about that then. ”
When the bus arrived at the hotel, Lin Zhendong took a taxi, left with the rice balls, and went straight to a car rental company.
After arriving, he looked at the car, and after some bargaining, he rented the Wrangler for three days at a rent of 1,000 yuan a day, in addition to paying a deposit of 3,000 yuan for renting a car, a deposit of 2,000 yuan for violations, and also bought an insurance, which is not a lot of procedures.
I rented a car and hit the road to the desert.
After more than six hours of driving, when they arrived in Korla, it was just after ten o'clock, and it was just after dark.
He parked his car in front of the vocational and technical college before making a phone call.
"Brother Dong, why are you here?" Tang Yuan was a little puzzled.
"You'll find out later. He shook his head, smiled, and did not answer.
After a few minutes, a petite figure walked out of the school gate, saw Lin Zhendong, and was immediately surprised: "Cousin, isn't there a courier? Why are you here?"
Tang Yuan, who was sitting in the car, suddenly widened his eyes, cousin cousin?
"When I have time, I'll come over and have fun, and I'll take a look at you by the way. Lin Zhendong smiled and touched Yang Wenting's head: "Let's go, it's rare to come here, go to dinner, what do you have to eat, just go up, brother has a treat today." ”
After getting into the car, Yang Wenting found that there was a beautiful young lady in the car, so she couldn't help but look back and forth between the two.
Lin Zhendong introduced each other: "Yuanyuan, this is the youngest daughter of my fourth uncle, the same age as me, after graduating from the bachelor's degree this year, I went directly to the vocational college as a counselor, and now I am a people's teacher, Tingting, this is the ......" He hesitated for a moment before saying: "Tangyuan, my friend." ”
The two looked at each other and said hello, they knew each other.
Then he found a shop and prepared to roast the whole sheep, but considering that the two girls were not very good at eating meat, he had to give up and find a skewer hot pot, he ate meat, and the two ate vegetables, and then chatted while eating.
When Tang Yuan went to the bathroom, Yang Wenting finally found an opportunity and asked him secretly: "Cousin, is she your girlfriend?"
"No, where do you want to go? I'm single now. ”
Yang Wenting immediately felt very incredible: "You brought a girl from such a far away, saying that the belt is light, it should be turned over, and then you have to get along for three days, and there is no one else around, do you think I will believe it?"
"Not anyway. Lin Zhendong did not admit it.
"Brother, you don't know girls too well...... she was silent for a moment, and then said: "Think about it from another perspective, if a girl doesn't have that much idea about you, do you think she will come all the way and be ready to spend three days with you day and night?"
At this moment, Tang Yuan came out of the bathroom, and Lin Zhendong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, if there is anything, let's talk about it later.
Then we continued to eat until twelve o'clock.
Twelve o'clock sounds very late, but twelve o'clock in Western Xinjiang is really only nine o'clock and ten o'clock.
Yang Wenting had to go to work tomorrow, so he didn't bother anymore, sent people back to school, and then found a hotel and slept directly.
After dawn the next day, he said goodbye to Yang Wenting on the phone, and then drove the Wrangler south, and an hour later, he arrived in the back garden of Korla in Lop Naoer County.
The car was parked on the side of the road, and he looked at the map, a little hesitant whether to go south or west.
To the south, you will go to Bayingolin, and to the west is Aksu, separated by a large desert, although his end point is a desert, but this desert is too big, and there are too many choices.
"Forget it, go west, go to Aral. ”
So he turned around again, along the G218 and then back to Korla, this time passing here, he did not stop, all the way to the west, along the G314, eight hours of driving, before arriving in Aral, it was still early, and then along the G217 south, across the desert.
At ten o'clock in the evening, they arrived at a village called Suzwut.
The people of Western Xinjiang were very hospitable, and when they saw that it was a visitor from afar, they arranged a house for them, although it was of the kind of earthen structure, although there was only one bed in it.
The owner's kindness, Lin Zhendong couldn't refuse, but he was a little helpless, tonight seemed to be another torturous night, as for the rice balls, he didn't need to look at them, he knew that the little girl was a little shy, but more than that, she was happy.
After dinner, we went back to our room together.
This night, as he expected, was quite restless, and everything that should have happened happened.
Also, a girl from other people has taken the initiative to get on this, if he sits still and keeps people away, wouldn't it be worse than a beast, so he was forced to choose a beast between a beast and a beast.
"If there's anything, I'll talk about it later. ”
After dawn, he woke up, looked at the rice balls lying on his side and fell asleep peacefully, sighed, and said, "Men and women love each other, it's really an addictive thing." ”
"Gentle Township, Hero Mound!" muttering this sentence in his mouth, he gently lowered her arm, did not alarm her, got dressed, and came out of the room, but who knows, as soon as he came out, Tang Yuan, who was still closed, opened his eyes, where was she sleeping, she was clearly pretending to be asleep, and she was just a little embarrassed.
Indeed, whoever takes the initiative will feel embarrassed to think about it again after it is over.
After a while, Lin Zhendong saw her curling out.
didn't twist much, on the contrary, it was very generous, but what happened last night, of course, I won't mention it at this moment, because it will be embarrassing to mention it, after Tang Yuan simply freshened up, changed his clothes, put on a wide sun hat, walked over, and asked, "Brother, when will you leave?"
Well, I used to call it Brother Dong, but now I don't even have the word Dong, and I call it Brother directly, and I don't know if I was stimulated by Yang Wenting's cousin and brother.
Lin Zhendong is not a ruthless person, he just had a relationship, and he is also tender: "Go now." ”
Then he said goodbye to his master and set off with the invited guide.
In the car, she habitually took selfies, but this time it was different, she also took Lin Zhendong in, and also posted a circle of friends, saying: "August 24th, this is a memorable day, it's good to have you, my desert eagle." ”
The accompanying picture is a tough man wearing desert camouflage and sunglasses, standing on the top of the desert.
Zhongqin and Shengye are in a cooperative relationship, as the financial accounts of both parties, they added WeChat to each other, so when Tang Yuan showed affection, Nie Dongfang and Wei Xiaoyu saw it before and after.
"I said, it turned out to be a tourist. Nie Dongfang muttered to himself.
After a while, she sent a message to Lin Zhendong: "Brother Dong, don't say a word when you go out with your girlfriend, do you have to express yourself this weekend?"
Lin Zhendong didn't look at his phone all the time, concentrating on driving.
After more than half an hour, the Wrangler broke away from G218 and entered the desert under the guidance of a local guide.
There are no roads here, there are just roads walked by people, camel caravans and motorcycles, the nearby wind erosion landforms, the ground is relatively flat, the wrangler can walk, the only way forward is all the way to the west, along the wind erosion ridge, there is an unknown area, Lin Zhendong has never touched, there is no guide, can go, it is estimated that he will not come back.
Tang Yuan is a heartless character, and he asked what he was doing here on the way? He just said to go around casually, and she just asked.
From here, theoretically, all the way to the west, along the wind erosion ridge, it is possible to cross the desert and reach Kedara, but this is only theoretically, a straight-line distance of more than 200 kilometers, the speed of the car is only thirty or forty, and it takes seven hours to get through the whole journey.
In case the Wrangler breaks down along the way, there are no people here, and it's over.
Halfway through the Wrangler, about a hundred kilometers, Lin Zhendong finally stopped, and the destination arrived, this is it.
