Chapter 126 [Pipi Shrimp, Let's Go]
Congo's natural landscapes are beautiful, and the sanitary conditions are really not very good. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Compared to the ferocious beasts that can appear in the wild, the most important ones are the invisible and untouched viruses, especially Ebola. Although the causative agent of Ebola is wild animals, not everyone in Africa deals with animals. The main reason that really ravages Africa is the poor habits and hygiene of the locals.
In Africa, people have a habit of eating raw meat, drying it and then eating it. While modern processes have been able to eradicate most of the germs in raw meat, not all production is strictly supervised and mistakes are inevitable.
Based on what Chen Ergou has seen and heard in the past few days, they can also find out how bad the sanitary environment here is. As soon as you leave the big city, you can see mountains of garbage everywhere, many banknotes are overused, rotten like a ball of shiny waste paper, and the cleaner will be disgusted when he sees it, and it is even passed around and even held in his mouth.
All members of the team, including Chen Ergou, received vaccinations and did some vaccinations such as tetanus, yellow fever, and enteric typhoid.
The team did not stop and quickly headed towards the border as planned. GIGI took over the team's external social contact accounts, including Reservoir Dog Studio's Weibo, Tieba, Chen Ergou's Weibo, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, etc., and the domestic has entered the right track, and the development direction focuses on the Internet.
Discussing with Xia Meng, updating some tweets at any time to attract potential foreign fans.
I always thought that the Congo was like a movie during the war period, with bullets and bullets everywhere, artillery fire in the sky, and everyone in danger, how did the life of the Congolese people go in dire straits?
When I really got here, everything was actually fine, but I felt like I had watched too many war dramas before.
It wasn't until we reached the Congolese border that the atmosphere was a little tense.
Soldiers can be seen everywhere, and they are all loaded with guns, and they are all armed with AK47s that are famous in CS games. At both ends of the border fortress were tanks of the UN forces, and the barrels of the cannons were covered with camouflage. On the top of each turret there was a soldier looking, armed with a submachine gun.
They arrived in the days after the disputed presidential election, where the coup swept through like a tornado, wreaking havoc on the city and the smell of gunpowder in the air across the border.
For foreigners, if you skip these weapons, it is not as chaotic as you imagined. Many countries have their maintenance troops here, but it's calm. If you have an argument with a soldier, the soldier may get angry and take you away, but it will only drive you away, and there will be no extreme behavior.
Not only the peacekeepers, but also the scientific expedition teams of many countries have set up long-term observation posts deep in the jungle. Every once in a while, there will be adventurous teams like them.
The local government is more protective of tourists, not only them, but also Europeans, especially the French, who like to come to Congo very much, and generally the local government will send soldiers to protect them.
It's the embarrassing pestering of some women who solicit customers on the street, he saw two French tourists caught by several women, he couldn't get out, and he couldn't do anything, and finally broke the money and paid to let him go.
Not to mention the aesthetic problems of different skin tones, Africa has always been the hardest hit by AIDS. Africa, which accounts for nearly 10 per cent of the world's population, accounts for more than 70 per cent of the world's people living with HIV.
Women, in particular, have a much higher infection rate than men. …… Who would dare to touch such a woman!
Chen Ergou found a senior guide named Andre and asked him for some information. Andre is an inquiring character, and as long as it is happening around here, there is nothing he does not know.
"A team of adventurers set off before, with very neat field equipment and photographic equipment, to photograph the living habits of wild animals. But they haven't been in contact with the base camp for two or three days, and if there is no news in a few days, I'm afraid they will have to activate the emergency rescue plan and look for it. ”
Chen Ergou was more curious and asked a few more words, "How many people are there and what is the ratio of men and women?"
Andre said: "Ten people, seven men and three women. Including an armed security guard with an AK47 and two grenades. One is to hit people, and the other is to hit cars. The leader is named Brooke, and he is also an adventure fanatic, and he pursues the wild world. You know, there are only five places in the world that are still like this: Central Siberia, Western Tibet and the Gumeng Plateau, Alaska/Yukon Region, the Amazon Rainforest, and the Congo Basin. ”
"Only the Congo Basin is filled with the big animals of the planet: hippos and elephants, lions and cheetahs, giraffes and buffalo. ”
Chen Ergou deeply agreed, those who love adventure are the same kind of people, and the places that Andre said are also the adventure holy places he yearns for.
André worked as a guide for the French hunting team for 30 years, and then poachers came and ended his job. "Man, you need to be careful of the poachers when you go into the jungle, those people are just brutes, and they will indiscriminately shoot you just for the pleasure of shooting! If you can, break their legs and blow their heads off. ”
Chen Ergou Khan, he is a pacifist, you can try to break your leg, and you don't do such a thing as killing people.
Andre also told Chen Ergou many survival tips for local adventures, which benefited him a lot. Finally, he asked for a map of the location of the research stations set up by various countries deep in the jungle, and thanked him and left.
Xia Meng also returned from going out at this time and successfully leased a helicopter from a South African diamond company.
Chen Ergou took Zhang Zhengyang to take off on the same day, circled and flew around the huge Congo River basin, began the preliminary exploration work, and also made final preparations for the upcoming adventure.
Under his feet is an endless sea of green, and even Zhang Zhengyang, who has been a soldier, is not only stunned when he sees this environment. "I really sweated for this little boss, if it weren't for the courage of the artist, who would dare to put himself in such a dangerous place alone. ”
Chen Ergou hooked the helicopter guardrail with one hand, the cabin door was wide open, and most of his body hung outside to look. The wind ruffled his hair, his eyes could not be opened, and he was unmoved. In the middle of the morning, entering the Congo River Basin, a small round ball flew out of his chest stealthily, and silently ordered, "Dog! ”
"Roger!"
There was a soft "buzz", and the dog egg turned into a streamer that only he could see, and flew away in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, since the photos of the encounter with the country at Hongqiao Airport were exposed by fans in China, sailors have been looking forward to the start of Chen Ergou's broadcast. In the past half a month, Chen Ergou's Weibo has been followed by more than 20 million people, and the newly registered official blog of Reservoir Dog Studio also has millions of fans.
A recent update on Weibo is still the drooling home-cooked food he cooked in the evening after he returned home. Before the deadline, the post had been liked by 1.06 million people and retweeted by more than 6 million people.
They have been waiting for new information, until today, a new meager was released on two accounts at the same time together with the live broadcast room, officially announcing the time and place of the next broadcast. "The old driver is about to depart, the Congo Basin Pipi Shrimp Train, do you have an appointment? Tomorrow at 17:00, see you in the old place, please buy a ticket and get on the train!"
The fans were instantly excited, "Old driver, you finally came out." ”
"Pippi shrimp, let's go!"
"Congo Basin, the home of Tarzan of the Apes?!"
"Wow, I didn't wait for ...... in vain"
"I thought I was going to go out to sea for treasure hunting, but the Congolese jungle is also looking forward to it. I haven't been abroad in my life, and I'm envious. ”
