Chapter 145: Arrival

After eating, she walked to the front of the car, and Sister Hammer took out her wallet: "Cao Wu, how much is the fare?" ”

"Forget it, it's not much money, you invite me to dinner, and it's offset!"

"Then what's so embarrassing?" Sister Hammer was polite, but she was not hypocritical in her hands, so she snapped her wallet together: "It's interesting, you come to Chang'an to play on vacation, and I'll take you around." ”

Sending the hammer sisters to Yang Mi's house, Yang Mi got out of the car and smiled at Cao Wu: "Send my Ouyang sister home safely!"

"Don't worry!"

Cao Wu drove into the driveway, turned his head to look at the co-pilot, and asked, "Where is your home?"

"I live in the dormitory, you drive forward. ”

As I talked about at the dinner table just now, Ouyang Yuge is a policeman from the economic investigation department, and this time he went to Xinjiang to conduct a preliminary investigation into a cross-provincial economic case.

This is also the reason why Cao Wu agreed to come down, what could be safer than taking a policeman out of the house?

Early the next morning, Cao Wu came to Ouyang Yuge's dormitory to pick her up, and the two made a special trip to eat a bowl of Niu Da before they went on the road.

Someone changed the car, Cao Wu didn't have to stop and go, and the environment of the Loess Plateau was boring after a long time, the two drove for a day, and drove directly to Jiuquan before stopping and repairing.

Ouyang Yuge's accommodation expenses during his business trip can be reimbursed, and the two found a similar hotel to rest for a night.

If you drive further, it's time to pass through Jiayu Pass.

Jiayuguan is also called Yumen Pass, after Jiayuguan, it is called outside the plug in ancient times.

Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the jade gate.

Between Jiayuguan and Hami, there are more than 600 kilometers of sparsely populated Gobi Desert, if it is a high-speed in the mainland, it will be opened in half a day, but at present, even the Huo and Jingxin expressways have not yet been opened, and it will take at least two to three days to take the old road.

Afraid that he would doze off, Cao Wu chatted with Ouyang Yuge without words.

Ouyang Yuge was also talkative, there were questions and answers, and the two chatted happily.

After driving until one o'clock at noon, Cao Wu parked the car on the side of the road, and the two took out the food they brought and ate it.

Naturally, there are no hot meals to eat on the road, but they bring vacuum-packed meat, canned food, ham sausages, bread and other convenience foods, but also rich.

The weather is very hot, but unlike the sultry heat in the south, the weather here is hot and dry, mixed with the heat of wind, sand and dry soil.

In this environment, water is much more important than food.

Cao Wu brought a lot of water, and put several buckets in the trunk and back seat.

After eating and resting for a while, Ouyang Yuge took the initiative to replace Cao Wu and drove on the road.

Cao Wu sat in the passenger seat, put the seat down, closed his eyes, he was indeed tired.

Don't look at sitting all the time, driving is actually a very hard thing, Cao Wu has been out for half a month, although he can sleep well every night, but he still feels tired, this is mental exhaustion.

The two switched ways and finally arrived in Guazhou County after dark, which was their planned foothold.

After a day of driving, both of them were tired enough to choke and had no appetite.

Next to the hotel are some stir-fried vegetables or beef and mutton restaurants, Cao Wu felt tired, Ouyang Yuge took him around the alley, found a small Hui restaurant, and asked for two bowls of soup and noodles called Paojiaozi, which were sour and delicious, and the two of them had a great appetite.

After a night's rest, the two hit the road again.

After passing Guazhou, the road on both sides became desolate, and the vast plains were yellow, with occasional gray red and green spots, which were camel thorns and red willow bushes that stubbornly grew on the Gobi Desert.

The asphalt road was straight, as if it was going straight to the sky, and after driving for an hour, I felt like I was still in place.

There were very few cars on the road, and Cao Wu even felt that they were the only cars running on the whole road.

Boom!

There was a loud bang, and Cao Wu only felt a shock to the body, and the center of gravity of the car began to deviate to the right.

Flat tire!

He quickly released the throttle, gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and controlled the direction.

Feeling the force in his hand, he already knew in his heart that it should not be that the front tire had burst, otherwise at the speed of his car, it was likely to have overturned.

Ouyang Yuge was also awakened by the voice, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it should be a flat tire. Cao Wu did not step on the brakes, but controlled the direction and let the car slowly stop on the side of the road.

Pull up the handbrake, press the bright double flash, Cao Wu got out of the car to check, and sure enough, it was the tire on the right rear side that had a puncture.

It's really unlucky, why did I get a flat tire when I was about to arrive, and I still don't have a store in this village before.

But fortunately, there was a full-size spare tire, so Cao Wu opened the trunk, took out the tripod and walked to the back of the car.

"Do you want to help?" Ouyang Yuge also got out of the car.

"No, I don't. Cao Wu put the tripod and came back to take out the spare tire.

Ouyang Yuge didn't get into the car, but helped Cao Wu take out the jack with great discernment.

Changing tires is just a trivial matter for Cao Wu, but it was too hot, and he sweated after a while.

"Wipe your sweat. Ouyang Yuge handed over a piece of paper.

Cao Wu's hands were full of soil, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

"Don't move, I'll wipe it for you!" Seeing this, Ouyang Yuge said generously, while reaching out to help Cao Wu wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Thank you!" Cao Wu smiled.

"Don't move, there's more. Ouyang Yuge took the paper and drew a circle on his head, going up in a circle and going up, and finally ending at the top of his head. She suddenly snorted and laughed: "I didn't expect it to be quite convenient to wipe sweat with a bald head." ”

Cao Wu was speechless and continued to bury his head in his work.

After a while, the tires were changed, and Ouyang Yuge entered the driver's seat to let Cao Wu rest.

The two continued on their way until eleven o'clock in the evening, when they finally entered the city of Hami.

The journey was about to reach the end, and Cao Wu's spirits were also a little uplifted, so he called Ouyang Yuge to go to the night market to eat skewers.

Hami is famous for its melons and fruits, and the famous cantaloupe is well-known at home and abroad, and there are many vendors selling melons and fruits in the night market.

At this time, Xinjiang did not implement bilingual education, and after two generations of assimilation and reasonable government management, those terrible things did not happen in Xinjiang.

Here, people of all ethnic groups are as united and friendly as pomegranate seeds, and they get rich together, which is a harmonious and beautiful place.

I asked for some red willow kebabs, cold skin and yellow noodles, and asked the melon seller to cut half a cantaloupe, and the two of them started eating.

There was no signal along the way, Ouyang Yuge ate for a while and then began to call back and text messages, and after finishing the work, the barbecue was cold.

Cao Wu asked the owner of the barbecue stall to help him heat it up, and ordered two more cups of Xinjiang kavas drinks.

It was a beer-like, but honey-blended drink, also known as kvass, which was introduced to the country from Russia, and there are similar drinks in some parts of the Northeast.

Returning to his seat, Ouyang Yuge suddenly held up his mobile phone and asked Cao Wu with a smile, "Is this you?"

On the screen of his mobile phone, there is a photo he took during the promotion of the album, and it is also the version that circulates the most on the Internet.

"It's not. ”

"Don't mumble about a policeman's eyesight. Ouyang Yuge smiled and took back his phone: "The first time I saw you, I recognized it." ”
