95 Rider on the Road (1)
Why travel far?
Perhaps, only on the road, you will feel happy.
A mountain bike, which cost me 2,000 yuan, and I couldn't afford a good one, so I bought a cheap one; a field tent, which must be prepared on the way to a long journey; a large bag of food and pure water, in order not to add to the burden of cycling, I didn't dare to buy too much; I found an extremely sharp dagger on the Internet for self-defense, not afraid of encountering robbers, afraid of encountering wolves.
To add a bit of color to the ride, I bought a red flag and painted my own design elements on it. I have prepared a Bluetooth headset to listen to music on the road, and a powerful headset is essential.
Since it was the first time it was so crazy, there were a lot of worries, so I was relatively well prepared and made a lot of preparations for all the aspects I could think of.
The first day of departure was a cloudy day. The sky was full of dark clouds, and I set off on my bike.
The first 100 kilometers felt very good. On the way, I bumped into a team that was also cycling, and I joined them. Most of them are retired elderly people, but their individual skills are quite good. Riding dozens of kilometers in a row without panting, compared to them, I sighed to myself.
These old men are riding in the direction of the north, and I am riding in the direction of the south. We parted at a fork in the road, and before parting, an uncle surnamed Yang said to me: "There are happy times on the road of cycling, and there are times when you can't stay up, and you must have a good mentality." ”
Before dark, I arrived in a small town and my stomach felt very empty. At the end of the town, I found a small hotel, put my bike down, and went to the street to find a restaurant to eat.
There are not many restaurants in this town, and when I entered a restaurant, the waiter smiled and asked what I wanted to eat, and I ordered a braised pork and a bowl of rice. The owner was very welcoming and personally came over and poured me a cup of jujube tea. He struck up a conversation with me, and I drank the tea he poured and talked to him until the braised pork was brought to me.
The town was unusually quiet at night, the streets were empty, and I was the only one who walked along the streets, and there were no street lights on the streets, only a few scattered lights shining from the shops.
When I returned to the hotel, I met a good-looking girl watching a movie at the bar. She stood up when she saw me coming in and smiled at me.
"Staying in a hotel?"
I said, "The formalities have been completed." ”
The girl nodded and said to me, "What do you need to call the front desk!"
I went up to the second floor and into the hotel. Turn on the TV, lie on the quilt and watch the TV casually.
Then I heard a quarrel downstairs, and I opened the window and put my head out to see what was going on.
In the middle of the street at night, a man and a woman stood in the middle of the street, and I closed the window and lay down again, and the quarrel outside the window gradually disappeared.
The next day, I woke up early, got ready to find a breakfast restaurant to have breakfast and set off. Unexpectedly, the beautiful waiter told me that there was no breakfast in town. I cooked a instant noodle at the inn and ate it and went on the road.
I turned up the volume of the music, and let the music and desolation accompany me. After leaving the town, entering the endless next door, the speed of the ride slowed down. After a hundred kilometers of riding, the sun was very strong, and although I was heavily armed, my skin still felt a lot of pain. I found a relatively flat place in the same place and set up a tent.
Compared to the scorching heat outside, the tent was stuffy, but it still felt much cooler. took out the food and water from the bag, devoured it, turned on the prepared small fan, and instantly felt a little cool. Put the music to the maximum, lie down on the soft cushion, and fall asleep unconsciously.
Oops, met a pack of wolves so quickly. Not far away, a group of wolves were approaching me, and I looked at the dagger in my hand, and I was a little powerless for a moment. They were hungry and longing flowed from the corners of their mouths, and I brandished my dagger and shouted, trying to scare off these impersonal creatures with their shouts.
The lead wolf pounced on me with a leap and bit my neck, and my blood spurted to the ground in an instant.
I woke up from my dream, sweating profusely, and hurried to find the dagger in my bag. I looked for it and found it as if I had returned to the real world, and I touched my neck, but there was no trace of being hurt.
Walking out of the tent, a wave of heat hits. On the endless Gobi Desert, steaming hot. I took a big sip of water, and my eyes showed a hint of strength and domineering, I am here to conquer the Gobi today.
We must hurry as soon as possible and ride out of the Gobi Desert as soon as possible to get rid of the boredom and tastelessness.
After less than fifty kilometers of riding, my mount stopped moving with a loud bang. The tires finally couldn't hold it anymore, and it protested to me with a burst. I yelled into the distance in annoyance: Damn, what the hell!
He took out the tools to repair the tire and squatted on the spot to save this misfortune, and in less than ten minutes, his whole body was soaked with sweat. After half an hour of hard work, the tires were finally repaired.
Get back on your bike and head off into the distance.
It was getting dark, and a sunset hung on the horizon. It seems that you can only stop the pace of the car and continue to work hard after you have recuperated your spirits.
The tent was re-erected, and some stones were found to fix it around the tent to prevent it from being blown away by the wind in the middle of the night. Attach your bicycle to your tent and if it's windy, you can take it with you. Standing in front of the tent and picking up the camera to take a few pictures, this desolation is very beautiful when it is stored in the camera.
The power bank with me is running out, and I dare not use electronic devices anymore. Then I simply closed my eyes and went to sleep, and the fatigue of the day made me fall asleep quickly.
In the middle of the night, I was awakened by freezing. The temperature difference was too great, and the high temperature during the day was gone, so I had to take out my cotton clothes and cover my body.
I was ready to sleep until dawn, but I couldn't sleep again. When I got up and walked out of the tent, I felt a chill from my head to my feet. Light a cigarette, sit in front of the tent, look at the darkness, loneliness and desolation welling up in my heart. It's a little uncomfortable to be in a crowd for a long time, and suddenly it's so quiet.
In the vast night sky of the Gobi, it is more like a contest between you and the Gobi, and it is defeating you with its indifference. Let you wear off little by little, and then finally lose your fighting spirit and fall to your knees in its arms.
"Hey, I'm going to beat you!" I shouted into the distance, but there was not the slightest resonance.
When you put a cigarette butt in the stone, the sparks splashed into the night sky, creating beautiful fireworks.
Go back to the tent, cover yourself with cotton clothes, and force yourself to sleep.
A beam of light woke me up, and I looked at my watch, and it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
After eating something, pack up your gear and move on.
