"Knife, run!" When Monica saw the huge black shadow, she jumped up like an electric shock and went to pull the camel.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing, isn't it just a rain cloud!" A leisurely strolling knife walked down the hill.

"Sandstorm, lead the camel with me!" When Monica said this, she was already running backwards with her camel, and although the sandstorm had not yet arrived in the distance, she could clearly see the sky changing dramatically, and there was no clear starry sky at all.

Hu Xiaodao, who pulled the camel, turned around and picked up the backpack, but was panicked by one of the camel's feet.

"Monica, how did it run away?" The backpack was about thirty kilograms, and Hu Xiaodao thought about it and threw away the backpack to chase the camel.

"The camel has a premonition that the sandstorm is coming, and will definitely find a place to take refuge, let's follow it!" The dark shadows behind seemed to be mixed with the roars of countless demons, and Monica had to raise her voice.

"And what about this backpack?" Chasing a camel with a backpack is definitely unrealistic, the dark shadows are getting closer and closer, the boundless horror, walking slowly will definitely be swallowed by the sandstorm.

"Leave it alone, even the water and food on the camels have been unloaded, it is important to run for your life first!" Monica had already thrown away the food and water early, let go of the reins and let the camel run on its own, she just followed the camel.

Hu Xiaodao was ruthless, and after throwing away the backpack, he did not untie the blanket of water and food, and then let go of the reins in his hand like Monica and let the camel find a suitable place to meet the arrival of the sandstorm.

However, these two camels seem to be very young, and belong to the kind of captive breeding, and they usually don't ask about the delivery of supplies, but it seems a little difficult to pick up the experience of dealing with sandstorms in the wild.

After walking a few steps, he knelt there, as if he had given up the idea of escaping.

"Phew! ~”

No matter how Monica called to drive away, the two camels did not move, and their huge heads bowed as if they were ready to meet the storm right here.

Hu Xiaodao looked up at the weather, then at Monica who was squatting next to the camel, gritted his teeth and turned around to pick up the sapper shovel and slapped it at the camel next to him......

Monica's camel in front of him heard the movement and turned around, and saw Hu Xiaodao fiercely holding a sapper shovel and running into the sandstorm, without hesitation!

"Knife, why did you kill the camel? Killing camels in the desert, especially in the case of sandstorms, does not end well! Monica was a little puzzled, but she spoke very fast!

"No way, leave it alone and help get the entrails out! ~" When Monica spoke, Hu Xiaodao's work did not stop, and he had already opened a gap of about fifty centimeters in the camel's belly.

Although Monica didn't know what Hu Xiaodao was doing, she soon squatted down and pulled the camel's internal organs with Hu Xiaodao.

It was suddenly completely dark, and Hu Xiaodao first stuffed his backpack and sapper shovel into it, and then pulled Monica into the belly of the camel.

The two of them were a little crowded, but fortunately, Hu Xiaodao and Monica could hold on to the camel's belly and not let the sand come in for half a minute.

Suddenly it was dark, Hu Xiaodao turned on the head-mounted miner's lamp and said to Monica, "How is it?" My trick is actually said by someone in the live broadcast room, I hope this sandstorm won't last too long! ”

After a while, Hu Xiaodao and Monica obviously felt that the air waves outside had become extremely violent!

The two of them grabbed a place of about fifty centimeters with their four hands, but fortunately there was not much blood in the camel's abdominal cavity, and the two of them only had some blood stains on their cuffs and shoulders.

This is the first time Hu Xiaodao has appreciated the power of nature!!

Two people, plus a backpack of thirty kilograms, can withstand the power of a sandstorm.

Disorderly!

Mixed moods.

Mainly caused by claustrophobic spaces.

However, the danger is gone, the camel is already huge, according to Hu Xiaodao's estimate, even if the sand is 70 centimeters higher out of thin air, the camel itself has a height of 50 centimeters when lying on its side.

As the minutes ticked by, the sound of the sandstorm gradually became quieter after half an hour, but it was still stronger than the normal desert monsoon!

Lifting the camel's belly, all he could see was sand, Hu Xiaodao turned around and took out a sapper shovel and planed a few shovels, revealing a yellowed starry sky.

"Come!"

Stretching out his hand to pull Monica out, the two of them stood in the desert after the storm, with the huge head of a camel at their feet.

"Knife, I didn't expect you, a foreigner, to save me when I was in trouble!" Monica said, looking at her surroundings.

Judging from where they stood, the camel had been buried in the yellow sand, and if they had squatted next to the camel according to Monica's meaning, the two would have been buried in the yellow sand long ago.

"It's nothing, I was reminded by the audience in the live broadcast room to remember!" Hu Xiaodao took a shovel and began to dig in the ground, and the supplies on the backpack and camel were still under the yellow sand, so they had to be dug out as soon as possible.

"It's okay if the water is there, we've only walked less than twenty kilometers now, and it's too late to turn back!" When Monikara pulled out her backpack and helped pull out the hydration bag, it was empty.

"It's over, it's hard not to look back now!" The teacher is not good, and the mood is frustrating for Hu Xiaodao.

"No! Can't go back! "Once the mission has started, there is no turning back! Hu Xiaodao's attitude is very resolute in this point.

"Don't be afraid of the problem of water, I have come into contact with some desert methods to find water, and in general it is quite scientific!" Hu Xiaodao said with certainty.

"You? Desert? Monica was a little unconvinced!

"Drought is the number one killer for explorers, and most of the victims of desert expeditions are caused by lack of water and heat stroke. Once you get lost in the desert, you must make sure you have enough clean water to drink before you get out of the predicament, otherwise there is little hope of survival.

In the desert, there is no water on the surface, and it is difficult to dig up water in most areas. But the desert is mostly a basin, and there are many seasonal rivers in it.

If dense reeds are found in the desert, it means that water can be dug up more than a meter underground; If you see the grass, you can dig up the water about two meters underground;

If we see red willow and camel thorns, it means that we dig 6~8 meters down to have groundwater; If a poplar forest is found, it means that there is groundwater 8~10 meters underground.

In the winter of 1990, when the expedition of the island nation NHK Broadcasting Company crossed the Taklamakan Desert from the large river along the Keriya River, this method was used to solve the problem of drinking water for nearly 100 peaked camels.

They walked for 28 days, dug a 15-meter-long, 5-meter-deep ditch, led the camels down to drink, and without any backup, successfully crossed more than 300 kilometers of desert and finally reached the banks of the Tarim River on the northern edge of the desert.

In addition, if you find damp sand or bitter water in the desert, you can also dig a pit and cover it with transparent plastic sheeting, so as to make a simple solar still.

The air and soil in the pit heat up rapidly, producing steam. When the water vapor reaches saturation, it will condense into water droplets on the inside of the plastic sheet, which will drip into the container below, allowing us to get valuable water.

In this way, more than 1 liter of distilled fresh water can be taken per day. It is worth mentioning that most of the groundwater in the desert is very saline, and it cannot be directly drunk by humans (camels can drink), and must be treated by distillation and other methods. ”
