Chapter 816: Through the Desert, Finally to the Base
Entering the desert, the convoy slowed down. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info It's not because the speed is slow, but because of the car that gets stuck one after another, and the rescue makes the speed slow. Of course, most of them are trapped in the rear support vehicles, and the cars in front of them are rarely trapped because of their strong power and superb driving skills. Although this desert is not the largest desert in China, it is located at the junction of the Mongolian Plateau and the Loess Plateau in the north, and there are no blocking mountains. So the cold winds from Siberia have shaped the sand into one big dune after another. If the car wants to move forward, it needs to constantly pound the dunes. In this way, there are many times, so it is inevitable to get stuck in the car.
Soon after entering the desert, everyone felt the cruelty of the desert environment. First of all, there is the large wind and sand, if the car is not sealed, these wind and sand will blow directly into the car. However, because there are many people who still have motion sickness reactions, they can't sit in this kind of sealed car, and the window glass must leave some gaps for ventilation. But in this way, the wind and sand will blow into the car along this gap. This makes the people in this car have these astringent sands in their clothes, in their shoes, in their ears and noses, and even in their mouths.
And that's not all, the test for everyone is drought. Soon after entering, the faces of the crowd were blown stiff. The lips are dry and cracked, and then peeling. Some of them were restless, and liked to lick and moisten their tongues, or simply tear them off their skins, and in a few moments, their lips were covered with blood, and then coagulated. Considering the slow speed of the car, they didn't know when they would be able to get out of this desert, and they didn't know what unknown difficulties were waiting for them on the road ahead. So Jiang Chen immediately ordered, that is, all personnel are forbidden to act alone, and if they want to go to the toilet or other things, they must report to the drivers in each car. Then at least two people go together, and they can't go too far. When the convoy departs, the number of people must be counted, and only when the people are all ready can they set off. Otherwise, in this kind of natural environment, if people are lost, according to their level, they will basically not be able to survive. And Jiang Chen's search and rescue is basically impossible, in such a large area, there are no markers, how to find them. Moreover, Jiang Chen and the others have no road at all now, and the traces of the car's walking will soon be erased by the wind and sand, so it is impossible to return to the original place.
Of course, Jiang Chen and the others also had a similar situation. Two accompanying girls, one of them came because of his period, and wanted to go to the toilet, so the other one could accompany him. The result may be because the girls are more shy, which is unobstructed, and wants to stay away from the convoy. As a result, when they came back, they couldn't find the convoy, and the two girls who were anxious cried in the desert. After Jiang Chen and the others checked the number of people, they found that there were two people missing, so they immediately asked the off-road vehicles with relatively strong horsepower to divide into several teams to look for them, and finally found these two people in a big sand nest more than 300 meters away from the team. Afterwards, Jiang Chen asked them, and they said that they hadn't walked much, so why couldn't they find it. In fact, this is also normal, in this kind of desert, if you don't have a little common sense, it's easy to get lost, let alone 300 meters, even 50 meters may not find people. As mentioned earlier, these are all sand dunes one by one, and people or cars can not be found at all when lying on their stomachs in a sand nest. And even shouting is impossible, shouting in a strong wind, as soon as the voice comes out, it is blown away, and it can't be spread far at all. And there aren't any references, so it's really easy to get lost.
The second one is to conserve water and limit it. Considering the unknown risks in the future, Jiang Chen decided to start limiting the water for the whole team and rationing it for each person. Originally, Jiang Chen decided to relax the restrictions on the old people and these girls, but the old people were very resolute and said that they would face it with everyone. So in this way, Jiang Chen was not reluctant. Know that under these conditions, there is a greater need for water than usual. Usually you only drink one glass of water a day, or sometimes you don't drink water, and it's nothing. And in the desert, if you run out of water, your throat will be dry and burning in less than half a day.
Sleeping in the desert was also painful, and after eating dinner, everyone in the bumpy day did not have the same interest as before, but went into the tent early to rest. And Jiang Chen was the same, but this sleep was unstable, because three or four times throughout the night, Jiang Chen was woken up by a screaming female voice. In the past, it was not a big deal, but the scorpion and the lizard in the desert got into the tents of a few girls without knowing what was going on. When the toss was almost over, the sky was bright, and Jiang Chen, who was confused, reluctantly climbed up. When I tidied up my clothes, I saw that there was sand in my clothes, shoes, socks, and even the snot I blew out.
Under such natural conditions, everyone can't eat anything, so don't cook, otherwise all they will eat is sand. So after giving everyone some boiling water and then one person received a steamed bun, a little mustard, and a box of canned food, everyone got into the car, and then continued to set off.
Today's weather is better, there is not so much wind, so everyone hurried to hurry. Finally, it was almost noon when the crowd walked out of the desert. But before everyone could be happy, they were greeted by the endless desert Gobi. After finding a nearby village and replenishing some fresh water from their well, the group set off again. In these desert Gobi deserts, the speed of the entire convoy finally started, and even for a distance, it actually ran hundreds of kilometers per hour. Feeling this passion, everyone in the team returned to their excitement, and one by one they opened the windows or opened the skylight, stretched out their hands or bodies, and cheered and jumped in this desert. However, in this seemingly flat and endless desert Gobi, Jiang Chen and the others also encountered a lot of trouble. Their tires alone were cut by the sharp wind stones in the Gobi Desert. And in the process of driving, because of a puncture, a car turned over directly in the process of driving. But fortunately, the driver wore a seat belt and a roll cage was installed in the car, so there was nothing big about the car and people.
After this incident, Jiang Chen's speed also decreased, which was the result of Jiang Chen's request, focusing on safety. That is, Jiang Chen's actions were also very fast. Finally, when the sun was about to set in the afternoon, many lights appeared in everyone's field of vision against the backdrop of a red light. The car leading the way in front excitedly said to the crowd over the radio: "We're here!"
yesγγγ saw the whole convoy cheering. And Jiang Chen heard the sound of everyone's cheers, and saw the destination he was about to arrive in front of him, and he also cheered with everyone.
