Chapter 184: A Sandstorm on the Way

"Okay!" said the old woman, "we have nothing to eat." ”

"Just have milk!"

"There's cheese!" said the old woman, entering the tent and taking out the cheese, "I'll make milk tea!"

After running for a day, I ate a hot milk tea steamed bun in the evening, which was still very pleasant.

The old man fed them the horses and said, "You are tired and resting, and I will take care of them!"

"Then thank you, Abel!" Mei Ga entered the tent and said to her son, "Little man: we met a good family on the first day, and there was an old man to help. Tomorrow you will be in the desert, and you will be responsible!"

"Abba don't worry!" Mei Ga is a man, let them call him me on the way. Li Weiyi is also a man and is her other son.

The two young men had not traveled such a long distance, and Mei Ga listened to their soft snoring and thought: Tonight, the family will not see them go home, and they must be dying in a hurry.

Are the family looking for them everywhere now...... I was not wrong in my decision this time

Finish...... Shouldn't I tell them the truth...... As she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel sleepy and fell asleep.

After dinner, when it was dark, Su Beier didn't see her mother and Hai'er, she opened the door of her mother's house, lit the lamp, and found that the felt and bedding on her mother's couch were missing. She walked into the stove with the lamp, and the wheat flour she had milled a few days ago was gone......

She thought about it, and hurriedly came back with the lamp, and found that there was handwriting on the wooden board on the couch, and looked carefully at the writing: "Belle, don't worry! I, Hai'er, and Weiyi are going to go on a long trip, and we will go home when it's time to go home!" ”

Belle muttered angrily: "I said that I went back to the Baikal Sea together, but I secretly left!"

Su Bei'er was very relieved that her mother and Hai'er were them, and she didn't say anything when she went home. When she went to bed at night, Xiao Su Li said to her, "Grandma, I want to sleep with my grandmother!"

"She doesn't want us anymore!" Belle angrily.

When my daughter heard this, she cried and shouted, "I'm going to sleep with my grandmother!"

Li Yuxing on the side said to his daughter: "Don't cry, Abba will take you over!"

With tears in her eyes, Subel said, "They're gone!"

"Where did you go?"

"Who knows?" Belle wiped away tears, "She wrote on the couch that he and Hai'er had gone on a long trip and would be back when it was time to go home!"

"Let's go, let's go over and take a look!" Li Yuxing hugged the doll, they opened the door to the house next door to see that it was real, and the tent at home was gone.

He remembered that after yesterday, Hai'er was looking for someone to hang the palm on the horse, and asked him: "Brother-in-law, which one of our houses here hangs the horse, is it good to hang and the palm is strong?" Who knew that this was happening.

He advised his wife: "Don't be sad, they may go to Baikal!"

"I don't think so. Subel said, "This morning, the merchant who sells copper and iron is gone!"

"You mean, they followed the businessman to Dahan?" Li Yuxing was surprised.

"Yes!" said Su Bei'er, "my grandma didn't give me any advice on anything at this time, she discussed it with Hai'er." ”

"That's your guess!"

"It's not. She said, "Do you remember that time, when the family was together and read my father's letter? My aunt said that she would save up money and go to Dahan to see it in the future!"

"So what do you say now?" he said anxiously.

"What can we do?" she said, "both of us don't be angry for the time being, and when someone asks, we can't tell the truth, just say that there is something wrong with my uncle's family, and they will go back and have a look!"

"That's a way to do it. Li Yuxing asked, "Then my aunt wants to ask, what do I say?

"I'll tell you about them! When your aunt asks, she will go back to your uncle's house!"

The next morning, the old man took care of the horses for them, the old woman prepared milk tea for them, and prepared a small bag of cheese for them, and Mei Ga gave the old man some silver, and let the cattle also prepare forage and fresh water, which was enough for them to save money through the desert.

Mei Ga and the three of them ate and drank well, packed their bags, and the old woman also asked the old man to give them a ride. Old Abel pointed them out a shortcut to Zhangye County and two days less desert. They made their way along the desert edge, on a faint horse path.

He walked for two days, but he did not meet passers-by or shepherds. Under the sun, the endless desert, one by one, round by round glowing with golden light, shocked those of them who had never seen the great desert.

Both men and horses are uncomfortably hot, in order to save the horse's physical strength. The three of them dismounted and led them, step by step in the deep sand, trekking with difficulty...... Although they all have water on their bodies, they are less than 10,000

Don't dare to drink it as a last resort.

After walking like this for nearly three days, the sun had set, and they met someone diagonally opposite with a caravan of heavy camels coming. Hai'er greeted with both hands rolling the horn barrel: "Oh, hehe-"

The person on the other side heard it and came back: "Oh hehe-" The person on the other side adjusted his direction, and the caravan came straight towards them.

It turned out to be a caravan of two merchants carrying iron and copper to Jiankun, Dingling, and other places.

Speaking of which, I am an acquaintance who I don't know. Mei Ga asked about the situation over there, and they said that after another day and a half of walking, they would cross the desert, and it was a valley road, and it would be much easier to walk on horseback. She asked, "Two brothers, do you rest here at night?"

The two of them looked around and in the sky and said, "There are no sand beams or sand dunes around here, it seems that there will be no strong winds at night, and the camels have been walking for a day, so it is okay to rest on the spot!"

At night in the desert, there is no need to pitch a tent. Mei Ga took out two wheat flour naan cakes and gave them them, and the two of them refilled the water from the water bladder they had brought with them, and the five of them had a meal together and rested separately.

No one is afraid of wolves, and some people are afraid of people. Mei Ga beckoned the two young men to sleep, fed the horses fodder herself, tied them to the doll, and sat down to sleep on them.

At daybreak, the wind suddenly rose, and the wind was rolling in from the north. The other party got up and shouted: "Get up quickly, the wind and sand are coming!"

Mei Gayi stood up with a grunt: "Haizi, Weiyi, get up quickly!

The two of them jumped up. Mei Ga said, "Pack your bags and get on the horse!"

When they packed up everything and were about to get on their horses and leave, it was too late! The other party shouted: "Quick, lead the horse to lie down against the wind!"

And they did. The other led the camels and surrounded them in the middle, and lay down on the lee.

The wind was howling, covered with sand and dust, and covered the sky and the moon. They had not been through the strong wind and sand, and they lay down beside the lying horses in fear. Half an hour later, the day dawned, the wind gradually tired, and the sand and dust slowly subsided.

The lying horses and camels were half buried in the sand, thanks to which the people relied on them. If the wind and sand run rampant for another half an hour, they will be buried!
