393.Chapter 393: A Desert Journey

"Tick tick tick. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The warm liquid dripped down my face, and I touched it, it was slimy and smelly, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a camel chewing on top of my head, like chewing gum.

I sprang up from the ground and dodged away, so frightened that the camel shook its neck and stopped chewing, looking at me for some reason.

Only then did I see that I was in the desert, and next to me were more than a dozen camels with wooden expressions, lying on the ground, as if they were recuperating.

There was no doubt that the liquid that had just been warmed was the saliva of a camel, and I was so disgusting that I hurriedly rubbed my palms in the sand. My nickname is Camel, and as soon as I came back, I arranged for my "brother" to pick me up, and God really treated me well!

"Are you awake, young man?" A middle-aged man with wrinkled skin walked up to me with a smile and spoke a non-standard Mandarin. Beside him, there were two young men, their skin was very dark and lacking moisture, and they looked like the result of years of wind and sun.

"Uncle, what kind of place is this?" I asked.

"This is the border of Ruoqiang County, and 150 kilometers east is Dunhuang." After the middle-aged uncle introduced me, he threw a water bag over, and continued: "Your baby is really fateful, if you hadn't met us, I'm afraid you would have frozen to death." ”

"Uncle, thank you." I reached for the water bag, uncorked the bottle and took two sips, not to mention, I was really thirsty.

"Uncle, where are you going?" I returned the water bag to him and wiped my mouth.

"We're going to ship some goods to Dunhuang, it looks like you're not a local, right?" Uncle asked.

"I'm from Hunan, and I got lost when I came here to explore." I casually made up a lie.

"Hey, you young babies, don't enjoy your happiness at home, what are you going to play in this kind of place, if you don't do it well, you will lose your life." The uncle said with a cold face.

I nodded yes again and again.

"Let's go, it just so happens that we will also go to Dunhuang and take you over by the way." As the uncle spoke, he began to organize a caravan to set off.

My heart was warm, and there were still a lot of good people, so I hurriedly followed.

Through chatting, I learned that my uncle's name was Wulamu, and when I asked him what his name meant, he told me that the name means "servant", so he was destined to spend his whole life in this kind of suffering and tiring work, but he was content, and had no complaints.

The two young men, his eldest and second sons, were teaching them how to cross the desert and manage the caravans, and in his words, he wanted to familiarize them with them while they were still able to walk, lest he die and his sons would have nothing to eat.

I feel very emotional in my heart, what this old man said is simple and unpretentious, but it contains a great truth, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish.

This journey can be described as hard, first of all, the winter temperature of this desert, it is really freezing to death, and if you want to urinate, you have to hold it until you can't stand it anymore, otherwise the tent that has just warmed up will be filled with cold air.

The second is the wind here, it's really too big, it can be described as flying sand and rocks, sometimes, the wind blows so that I can't open my eyes, but the three of them, as if they are used to it, don't take it seriously at all.

Wulamu is used to identify the direction,It's still the earliest method of combining the compass and the map.,Occasionally stick a stick on the ground or refer to the stars in the sky.,I asked him why he didn't use GPS or something.,He said that he would too.,But he still believes in the things left by the ancestors.,Passed down for thousands of years.,Use it steadily.。

Who says it's not, it's like our traditional Chinese medicine, which was originally a treasure of the Chinese nation, is now reduced to a foreign country to flourish, and I don't know if the profession of Taoist priest or Mr. Yin and Yang still exists a few years later, I sighed in my heart, a little panicked.

Although 150 kilometers sounds not far, it takes more than an hour to drive fast and take the high speed, but in the desert, these 150 kilometers are very far, and we walked for five days to reach Dunhuang.

After Wulamu handed over the goods, he seemed very happy, and he had to take us to the restaurant for a meal, so we chose a very good restaurant nearby, ordered eight dishes, and asked for a bottle of liquor.

To my surprise, we didn't drink all this bottle of liquor, I was still afraid of something after drinking, but the three of them really didn't drink much, I was speechless about this, Wulamu's eldest son told me that the most taboo thing about their camel team is to drink big wine, after all, they have to walk in the endless desert, and the slightest carelessness will lose their lives, so they never drink.

After eating, packing the food, and on the way back to the hotel, Wulamu asked his second son to fetch me 2,000 yuan, saying that I should take it with me on the road, and I was not hypocritical, and directly stuffed the money into my pocket.

Wulamu nodded in satisfaction and fell asleep.

I ran to the front desk, hesitated, and made a phone call to Beimen Wushuang, one was to report to her that she was safe, and the other was to tell her the name of the hotel, and asked her to help me contact the people of the Lanzhou Military Region and come to pick me up.

Hanging up the phone, I let out a sigh of relief, fortunately, Beimen Wushuang's tone was the same as before, and there was nothing abnormal, otherwise I wouldn't know how to face her.

"Hu ......" I was not the only one who let out a sigh, and I saw Han Xiaolin floating out of the pendant.

Since coming out of the crack between yin and yang, I have been with Wulamu and them, and Han Xiaolin can't show up, so I guess I'm about to suffocate her.

"Why are you so stupid, why are you risking your life to save me?" Han Xiaolin asked fiercely.

"You are my daughter-in-law, I won't save you or a man?" I yelled at her.

She seemed to be complaining about me on the surface, but I knew that she was afraid of my death and cared about me, which touched me and made me feel that no matter how hard and dangerous it was, it was worth it.

"Is there any danger on the way?" Han Xiaolin asked again.

I thought about it seriously and said to her: "How can I say it, there are many dangers, you don't know, in order to find your whereabouts, I went to Xudu." ”

"You're going to the capital?"

"But no, I beat the ten palace kings one by one, and then the king of Jizo came out to intercede and told me your whereabouts, so I stopped......" I said without blushing and without a heartbeat.

Han Xiaolin knew that I didn't brag about it, so she listened so carefully, and finally cooperated with her anger: "Don't be so reckless in the future." ”

Then she snuggled up in my arms, and to be honest, it made my buddy and my blood really boiling.

"Jingle bells." We were sweet when the phone rang on the bedside table.

"Ma De, who is so lacking in virtue to disturb people's sweetness, there is no asshole when giving birth to a child!" I grabbed the phone in extreme displeasure: "Hey......"
