Volume 1 Chapter 125: On the Journey

The desert is always quiet at night, and the heat during the day dissipates very quickly.

Wear a jacket in the morning, wear yarn in the afternoon, and eat watermelon around the stove. This is not just the case in the border provinces, but the temperature difference between day and night in the desert is just as severe.

Yu Qiuyu wrote in "A Thousand Years of Sigh": The desert under the moonlight has a strange shocking power, the backlight is as black as the quiet sea, and the face light is gray and silver, but there is a kind of bone-eroding cold. This cold has nothing to do with temperature, but refers to the color and state of light, so it is even more chilling.

The silvery light fell on the undulating sand dunes, but in the middle of the night, you could still see the stars on the lake and in the sky, making it difficult to tell where the sky was and where the water was.

The fatigue of the day was relieved by the delicious mutton and mellow wine, and everyone slept peacefully until midnight.

"Fat brother, why didn't you think about chanting a poem in this situation today?" Wei Xiao squeezed into Xing Yu's sleeping bag, ignoring the smell of sweat and wine.

"You're not tired, isn't it fun in the desert?" Xing Yu was apologizing for his reckless behavior during the day just now, and he drank a lot of wine, but his mind was not clear yet.

"Irritating, didn't you notice that my voice is hoarse?"

"What else, is there nothing to express?"

"When you are shabu-shabu in the sand nest, it's like some stuntman speeding through a barrel, coming up from the bottom in a circle, and I always feel like the car is going to overturn, and you can save it every time. ”

"Eh, uneducated daughter-in-law, in the future, we children, let me teach, you are uneducated. After speaking, Xing Yu felt that Wei Xiao's hand on his waist was pinching......

Early the next morning, I obviously felt that the crazy brother had not rested well, and his eyes were like pandas.

"What's wrong with you?" Xing Yu asked with concern.

"I'm not used to sleeping in the tent, and I have to trouble Feng Yongpeng all the time driving today, and I'm napping in the car. The madman rubbed his eyes and said.

"Then you pay attention to safety and fasten your seatbelts. ”

In the face of the vast desert, the vehicle driving is like a light boat in the ocean, which seems so small. In the steep desert, sometimes rushing into the sky, sometimes falling into the trough, the thrill and excitement are unforgettable, but the risks also exist, and tragedies can easily occur if you don't pay attention to safety.

The vehicle has been hoarsely climbing over one sand mountain after another, climbing over each sand peak, often without knowing the terrain behind the sand peak, and in case of sudden emergencies, it is all about reaction and experience.

When he came to a long and steep sand mountain, Xing Yu passed smoothly, but where Bombardier could come up, other vehicles had to be shabu-shabu to come up smoothly.

The Patrol made it to the top, and the Wrangler made it to the top. I saw Xue Guodong driving the white Isuzu Road Fighter to accelerate, whistling, detouring, turning over a small depression in the middle of the mountain, and when he was about to rush up the previous lane, he suddenly skidd, floated to the side, and couldn't rush up.

Several heavy trucks walked in front, and the planed lanes were all floating sand, and the tires of the light vehicles behind were difficult to grasp.

I saw Xue Guodong swerve sharply and drove diagonally from the side of the sand nest.

I came back and rushed again, but I still didn't rush up.

The sand was so empty that the vehicle kept drifting a little on the sand beam.

After rushing to the sand again, Xue Haidong turned too hard, and everyone only saw that the vehicle suddenly lost power, stopped halfway up the sand dune, and slid sideways, drawing a deep rut mark along the sand dune......

This frightened everyone, and Xing Yu started the car and rushed over as soon as possible......

After the car rolled twice, it was anyway, and before Xing Yu rushed to him, Xue Haidong and the co-pilot in his car had already come out of the car safely.

The two men stood there shaking their heads, trying to get rid of the dizziness.

"Brother Xue is fine, what's the situation? Xing Yu stepped forward to support Xue Haidong, and then asked.

"The direction is ruthless, a tire is scratched...... Xue Haidong has returned to normal after a while, and said calmly.

"Xiao Xing, give me a cigarette, I was eating mutton just now, and suddenly I ...... I don't know where my lamb has gone. Xue Haidong's co-pilot said.

Xing Yu asked Wei Xiao to help the two of them, and he didn't dare to hand over the cigarettes, the car was rolling, in case there was an oil leak or something, wouldn't it be a lantern in the toilet to smoke again - looking for death?

After a round of inspection, it was found that except for three wheels, the windshield of the vehicle was not cracked.

This is also in the desert, the ground is soft, and I don't know what the situation is in other places......

Feng Yongpeng and a few people also rushed over, surrounded Xue Guodong and the two of them, and carefully looked at whether there were any injuries on their bodies.

"I'm fine, everything is fine. Xue Guodong didn't know when he took out a lamb rib from the car and washed it with mineral water, and now he is gnawing on it with a big heart to reply to everyone's concern.

The co-pilot was smoking a cigarette on the side, and he kept waving his hand, indicating that he had no problem.

If you're fine, check the vehicle, the desert crossing vehicle is our lifeline, and we can't miss it at all.

After inspection, it was found that there was no oil backfilling in the engine, which is also a very miraculous thing. Under normal circumstances, there will be a lot of back-filled oil in the cylinder body of the rollover accident, and it cannot be cleaned up without pulling out the spark plug, but this time it is clean.

Three wheels are tire-picked, and it is inflated, and it is the monkey to climb the pole to lift the vehicle, after inspection, it is lucky, the tire is not damaged, after the gas, you can meet the form requirements.

"The quality of Isuzu is really good, there is some paint out, and ......there is no deformation at all," Xing Yu sighed after probably checking it.

"Fortunately, this part of the desert is soft. But not a single piece of glass was broken, which is a miracle. Wu Shimo said after observing from the side.

At this time, Xue Guodong's co-pilot tilted his head and said, "Why is this front wheel out of gas again?"

"What's wrong with your neck?" Xing Yu noticed that his neck was abnormal for the first time.

"Ahem, when the car overturned just now, I was scared, I suddenly turned to one side and wanted to lie down, I was strangled by the seat belt, and now I feel a little stiff, nothing is wrong. When the crowd heard this, they couldn't help but start laughing.

The car overturned and made a stiff neck, which can also be regarded as a small story.

Continuing to inspect the vehicle, it was found that one wheel hub was slightly deformed, and the distorted wheel hub could not ensure the tightness, so that the tire was in a state of slow deflating.

Several people worked together to change the spare tire, and changing the tire in the desert was also a manual job.

There is no fulcrum here, it is difficult to use, and it must be padded to get out of trouble. Inflatable daughter can solve this problem very well, find a trolley upside down, and use exhaust gas to lift the vehicle.

The person who invented this thing is an absolute genius.

"That tire was thrown away, and I was always worried that he would break my rear tailgate, and it was rattling all the way. Xue Haidong came to his senses completely, and saw that Feng Yongpeng was struggling to move the tire, and couldn't bear to say.

"No, it's not a big problem, you can use it when you go back and clean it up." Before I came, I told you to change a biaxle better rear bumper, you now know the difference between a rear bumper with different quality, right?" Feng Yongpeng still put the tires on the bracket.

The previous modification of the Road Raider, Xue Haidong, basically followed the advice of Feng Yongpeng and Xing Yu. Only this rear bar was a whim, and I found an electric welding shop to process it.

The installation looks tight, but there has been a problem with the fixation of the spare tire rack, and there is no way to make the spare tire firmly fixed.

The desert was jolting and shaking, causing the entire spare tire to sway with the car, banging on the tailgate.

Now the remedy can only be to use straps to secure two pieces of clothing in the back......

After resting for a while, everyone originally advised Xue Guodong not to drive, but he was unwilling, and everyone couldn't resist him, so they had to put him in the second position, so that he could take care of him before and after.

Today's convoy's plan is to drive to the highest peak of Badain Jarin, and in general, the main body of the mountain is made of rocks, that is, bedrock, and then covered with a thin layer of soil, and vegetation grows above, and of course some mountains are directly exposed rock.

The Bilutu Peak that I planned to go to today was very special, he was completely made of gravel accumulation.

The geographical location is about 102 degrees east longitude, 39 degrees north latitude, the altitude reaches 1617 meters, the relative height is more than 500 meters, known as "Sand Sea Everest", is the world's highest desert sand peak, 70 meters higher than the world's second highest sand peak located in the Sahara Desert of Africa.

There are many theories about how it was formed, and Xing Yu and several people don't want to study the reasons for the formation, but I only remember that someone rode a Suzuki motorcycle in 2009 and rushed to the top of the slope in only six minutes and two seconds.

Everyone who comes on an adventure wants to try their skills for how long it takes to get to the top.

The plan is not good, but the reality is cruel.

I can't remember how many times Xing Yu, who was digging in the sand, was already out of breath and walked swayingly, except for Ma Duo and Wei Xiao, who did not participate in the labor.

Everyone else was so tired from the continuous digging that one or two people dug it out at first, and then three people worked together.

At the back, the shovel was abandoned, and little by little with both hands. First, the co-pilot is working, and then the driver is working together.

Until Ma Duo and Wei Xiao also participated. It is easier to get stuck in the sand and the car is stuck in the place where there is vegetation, and when a shovel goes down, countless black insects run around, scaring several ladies to jump to their feet.

"Have you ever seen a mummy? This is the legendary scarab, and now I'm not hungry, or I'll eat you directly." Fei Long joked on the side, so frightened that Ma Duo jumped directly into his arms.

Wei Xiao was also frightened, and as soon as he arrived at a place with vegetation, he was reluctant to get out of the car.

Actually, these are shells, but they're a little bigger than they usually see.

It became the pleasure of the convoy to scare the two ladies, and when digging in the sand, a four-legged snake escaped and left behind a constantly jumping tail, which was said to be the most dangerous pit viper in the desert......

When Fei Long was holding a four-legged snake for recreation, the first person to make a cry was actually Xing Yu.

"Forehead God, your voice is about to catch up with your daughter-in-law. Fei Long looked at Xing Yu, who was jumping from under the car, and said helplessly.

"Thief, Lao Tzu is not afraid of heaven and earth, the only thing he is afraid of is snakes. When I was a child, I was bitten by that thing......" Xing Yu said, patting the sand on his body.

"No, you're still afraid of pain, you can cry dad and call mom if you get an injection. Wei Xiao began to dismantle the stage on the side.

"You are still afraid of Wei Xiao, Wei Xiao asked you to go east, you dare not go west. Ma Duo also joked......

Everyone laughed, and the speed of digging sand also accelerated a lot, and it was almost dark, and the 300-kilometer road had been walked for more than 8 hours, and it had not yet arrived.

If you don't dig it out, you can only set up camp in the wilderness.
