Earth, China, Northwest.

At the border of the grassland and the desert, there are several simple houses with iron sheets, surrounded by a circle of barbed wire, these barbed wire are only more than one person high, and each grid is fixed with wooden stakes at a distance, this kind of barbed wire does not have much preventive effect on people, ordinary people can easily turn over from above, but its role here is not to prevent people, mainly to prevent the intrusion of some wild animals.

"Teacher Zhang, when can we leave?"

The door of a simple room opened, and out came a young man in his 20s, wearing an orange jacket, fast-drying pants with trouser legs, a triangular scarf wrapped around his head, and sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.

The person he called Teacher Zhang was a middle-aged man, who was standing in the courtyard looking into the distance, and when he heard the voice, he glanced back, and suddenly frowned slightly.

"Don't worry, wait for Captain Lin to come back tomorrow and then go together."

"Wait until tomorrow?" The young man raised his hand to look at the sports watch on his wrist and couldn't help but say.

"Tomorrow, of course." Zhang Liyun replied, and then said: "I said Xiao Wan, our work has strict regulations, there are too many uncertainties in the field, and the exploration work must be carried out in accordance with the procedures. ”

The young man laughed at the thought of it, nodded yes, and went back to his room.

Seeing the young man leaving, Zhang Liyun shook his head slightly, Zhang Liyun is an engineer of the Northwest Exploration Team and a teacher at Northwest University of Geosciences. As for Xiao Wan, who was talking to him just now, Wan Yi is a master's student at Northwest University of Geosciences, and this time the university arranged for Wan Yi to intern in Zhang Liyun's exploration team.

Wan Yi arrived here the day before yesterday, and this place is a supply depot for the exploration team. Responsible for the main work of exploration is presided over by team leader Lin Jianxue, Zhang Liyun, as a geological expert, is Lin Jianxue's deputy, and is also the leading teacher this time.

Northwest University of Geosciences and the exploration team have been cooperating for several years, the first cooperation was in the early 60s of the last century, and over the years, Northwest University of Geosciences has sent a lot of talents to the Institute of Geology and the exploration team. The Address Institute and the exploration team have also made many contributions to Northwest Geosciences. Just like Zhang Liyun, he is not only a member of the research institute, but also a part-time lecturer at Northwest University of Geosciences.

Every year, Zhang Liyun has to bring a few students recommended by the school to participate in the work of the exploration team, and he has brought many students over the years, but it is the first time that a student like Wan Yi has encountered it. First of all, Wan Yi is a little different from the previous situation of leading the team, he was arranged separately in the school. Second, there are very few examples of master's students like Wan Yi interning in exploration teams. At least this is the first time Zhang Liyun has encountered it. In the end, Wan Yi didn't feel like a hard-working person to Zhang Liyun, the first time I met Zhang Liyun, I felt that Wan Yi's family conditions should be very good, just the sports watch he wore on his wrist was worth his salary for several months, and after arriving at the supply station, Wan Yi never wore that kind of ordinary work clothes, but wore brand-name outdoor clothes and kept dangling in front of him, it was not like coming to an internship but an outdoor vacation.

All in all. Zhang Liyun's first feeling for Wan Yi was very bad, and he felt that such a son who was used to enjoying himself came to the exploration team. He really couldn't believe that Wan Yi could endure this hardship. Don't look at Wan Yi now looking forward to leaving, it is estimated that when he really arrives in the wild, this kid will have to cry and call his mother to go back in a few days.

Lin Jianxue returned to the supply station earlier than expected, and the perennial outdoor work, Lin Jianxue is really one year younger than Zhang Liyun, but when the two stand together, Lin Jianxue looks like Zhang Liyun is several years older. A swarthy face glowed red, messy hair and beard that had not been washed and shaved for days, light gray overalls that had turned dirty to coffee, and a large military camouflage backpack that was almost indistinguishable from a blind stream in the city.

"Lao Lin. Great work. When Lin Jianxue took a shower and returned to the house, Zhang Liyun handed him a cigarette and asked about the work he went out this time.

Lin Jianxue's personality is a little taciturn, and he only briefly explained his work. There are a total of five people in their exploration team, Lin Jianxue is the captain, Zhang Liyun is the deputy captain and geological expert, and the team members Qin Shouyi, Wang Xiaoshan, and Wu Jun are the main task is to explore the northwest desert and marginal terrain to find the resources contained in the desert, including underground water sources and so on.

This is a long and very hard work, often ten days or even a month of going out may not get anything, but Lin Jianxue led the team to do it for several years, 365 days a year, he almost spent more than 300 days in the vast desert area of the northwest running around.

"I heard that a college student is coming? Internship? The cigarette butts in his hands were almost burning to his fingers, Lin Jianxue looked at it and took the last puff.

"Yes, still a master's student." Zhang Liyun handed another cigarette to Lin Jianxue, and when he saw that he was about to extinguish the cigarette butt, he lit it, and talked about Wan Yi's situation roughly, and at the same time expressed his worries.

"He's the only one this time?"

"He's the only one." Zhang Liyun explained: "Professor Gu personally arranged it, and I don't want to refuse, Lao Lin, you see that I can't ...... it." ”

"There's no need for that." Lin Jianxue waved his hand: "My team is not special, since it was arranged by Professor Gu, opportunities are always given, he can do it, if he can, let him go back, okay, that's it, I have to get up early tomorrow and rest early." ”

After speaking, Lin Jianxue took a few puffs of half a cigarette in his hand, then lay down on the bed, directly pulled the coat on the side over the cover, and let out bursts of snoring in less than a minute.

The northwest dawned early, and Wan Yi got up early the next day, washed and combed in the house, he put on his clothes and went out, looking at the sky that was gradually red in the distance, and then moved his body in the courtyard. As soon as he made a few movements, an unfamiliar voice sounded behind him.

"You're Wan Yi?"

Looking back, a big man from the northwest stood behind him, with a dirty and unshapely overalls draped over his shoulders, squinting at himself.

"I am, are you ......?"

"I'm Lin Jianxue."

"Hello, Captain Lin, when are you coming back?" Wan Yi suddenly showed joy, and hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with Lin Jianxue, but Lin Jianxue raised the cigarette he was holding in his fingers, indicating that it was inconvenient.

"We're leaving today, are you ready?" Lin Jianxue asked.

"I've been ready for a long time, Captain Lin, I've been waiting for you for days."

"Go, bring me your luggage." Lin Jianxue said.

Although Wan Yi didn't know why Lin Jianxue asked for this, he still nodded hurriedly and trotted back to the room to take out the luggage he brought. An Archaeopteryx's 85L hiking bag, the bag is stuffed with a lot of bits and pieces, what alcohol lamps, outdoor tableware, compass, flashlight, sleeping bags and so on dozens of pieces, and even a brand-name tent is tied at the top of the mountaineering bag, and there is also an alloy folding pony or something.

Lin Jianxue took it without saying a word, flipped it over, took something out, took a few glances and threw it to the side, and in a blink of an eye, it didn't take two minutes for the whole bag to be thrown on the ground by him and divided into two parts, one more and one less, and finally he picked up the mountaineering bag and threw it to the side of the more: "You don't need to bring any of these." ”

"Don't bring it, these are ......." Wan Yi was stunned for a moment, Lin Jianxue threw away most of the things he brought and said that he didn't need to bring them, could he just go out with them with a flashlight and a compass?

"And I'll change all of your clothes." Lin Jianxue pointed to the few things that could be left on the ground and what Wan Yi was wearing: "Except for these, all of them have been replaced with the equipment in the team, just like that, we will set off in an hour, if you don't want to change, you can go back to school directly." ”

After speaking, Lin Jianxue didn't look at the stunned Wan Yi, and left with his hands behind his back. (To be continued......)
