More than an hour later, the sandstorm passed, and the clarity between heaven and earth was restored again.

Seeing that the surrounding terrain had changed into something else, Zhao Guangwu sighed in his heart, if it weren't for the master's action, it would definitely not be possible to pass so easily this time.

It was also the first time for Wu Jun to see such a big desert storm, and he felt quite shocked, being in countless violent winds and sands, which made him feel the power of nature and his own insignificance.

This is how it feels when facing a desert storm, and what would it feel like if you left the earth and faced the starry sky in the future?

So hurry up and upgrade your cultivation and experience it as soon as possible.

Sadly, no mirages were seen this time, and wild camels and legendary gold-eating ants were not encountered.

"Let's go, keep going. ”

In the blink of an eye, another week passed, and the four of them and two camels came to the edge of the desert.

You can already see the sparse desert plants here, and the ground is no longer just fine sand, but more gravel.

Zhao Guangwu looked at the map and used the compass to accurately calculate the location he was in, which should be in Niger.

Wu Jun is not familiar with these countries in Africa at all, and knows one Egypt, South Africa and Congo.

Needless to say, Egypt and South Africa are described a lot on TV and in various media, and Congo is remembered because the people there are too dark.

In the past, when I was in school, when a classmate was a little tanned, everyone liked to say that he was Congolese.

Unfortunately, because of the route, they won't go to Congo this time.

"From here, we can hire a car," Zhao Guangwu said, although he misses the days in the desert these days, but he still carefully began to plan the next trip, "It only takes one day to drive to Niamey, and then through Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire, you can reach your destination Guinea, and the total time will not exceed three days." ”

Wu Jun took a look, because the daylight hours along the way were relatively long, and the first layer of the intermediate quenching technique was still about 100 hours away.

"That's still the same as before," he said, "you drive, I'll walk." ”

The old monk said: "The old monk also walks with the little master, and it just happens that you can also see the people in this place." ”

"Okay, but the car still has to be rented, and the driver should be able to act as a guide. ”

This matter was left to Zhao Guangwu, and soon he sold two camels and rented one...... Wu Jun has a bit of a bad car.

There are four wheels, and the sound of the engine is sudden, it should be a diesel engine.

And the body is woven from bamboo, and on the bumpy road, the whole is shaking.

But don't mention, the weaving craftsmanship is quite good, the doors and windows are readily available, and I have to admire the brains of the black brothers.

"No way, this is the best car here. ”

Wu Jun nodded indifferently, he wouldn't sit anyway, so he let Xiao Liu and Zhao Guangwu take the lead to find better hotels and restaurants.

When it comes to Africa, everyone's first reaction is nothing more than black, or poor, or black and poor, and what comes to mind is a black and thin child whose lips can't even cover his teeth.

Niger, on the other hand, is almost the poorest place in Africa.

Along the potholed dirt road, Wu Jun and the old monk Jinglin kept walking to the east, and all they saw along the way were dilapidated thatched houses, rare adobe houses, and almost no brick, cement, and gravel houses.

Perhaps because it is located on the edge of the desert, there are few foreigners here, so there is almost no place to visit, and the strange combination of Wu Jun and the old monk can attract all kinds of curious eyes.

When passing through some relatively large villages or small towns, there will be many bold children following them, probably wanting to ask them for food.

However, it may be that they saw the bald head of the old monk, and they did not come over in the end.

There are also monks in Africa, and there are many followers of Chinese Buddhism, and perhaps in the eyes of the locals, Buddhism is still a relatively mysterious thing.

Along the way, Wu Jun also found a problem, that is, many villages and small towns have many stalls.

Some are women, some are teenagers, but few adult men are seen.

The things sold were relatively simple, grilled fish, fried fish, or kebabs, and he even saw people roasting whole sheep on the side of the road.

Who said that African brothers live in dire straits?

Even in China, eating roasted whole sheep is a very decent thing, right?

Of course, the locals like to put a frame on their heads, and Wu Jun has seen it on the Internet for a long time.

But I don't know why, obviously everyone eats meat, why are they all so thin.

Isn't eating meat actually causing you to gain weight?

Along the way, the old monk was silent.

In fact, Wu Jun also knows that the people who live here are actually quite miserable, don't look at the barbecue and fried fish everywhere on the street, but how many people can afford to eat it?

Those skinny children are 100 percent malnourished because they don't have enough to eat.

The gap between the rich and the poor is so direct everywhere.

"Sure enough, all living beings are suffering. ”

Wu Jun didn't answer the old monk's words, he was worried that if the monk wanted to be merciful, it would be difficult to stay and save these people.

But fortunately, the old monk was quite rational, although he looked sad, he probably knew that he couldn't change anything by himself, so he didn't say anything after a long sigh.

In many places in Africa controlled by various armies, the people there are almost the same as slaves, and there are many people who work more than ten hours a day, but they can't even feed their families, and they will be shot if they are not careful.

So what I saw along the way was good, at least there were trees, mutton, and ponds to catch fish.

As long as you are a little diligent, the family will not starve to death.

Before dark, they arrived at the rendezvous point with Zhao Guangwu and did not find a hotel, but the driver introduced them to spend the night at the chief's house in a village.

The chief's house was a wide adobe house, and the family had a lot of food, in addition to barbecue meat and bread.

Since there was no place nearby to exchange money, Zhao Guangwu took out the remaining cucumbers as a reward, and the chief's family of more than thirty people saw these emerald green cucumbers, and their already bulging eyes instantly straightened, and they were even more shocked than seeing the roasted whole sheep.

Later, Zhao Guangwu told Wu Jun that vegetables are much more expensive than meat here.

As for why, the devil knows why.

Wu Jun has also seen the land here, although the degree of desertification is relatively strong, but there is still a way.

For example, a layer of plastic film is spread on the ground, and then sand and rotten leaves, plant ash, farm fertilizer, etc., if you can't grow vegetables, Wu Jun dares to take off his head and kick it as a ball.

Three days later, they finally arrived at the border of Guinea, and Wu Jun looked at it, the distance of the upgrade task was already very close, and the first layer of the body quenching technique was also about to be fast.

Just counting the time, there are still more than 20 days to complete the two months, Wu Jun went around Guinea, went to the beach to enjoy the huge crabs and lobsters, and then thought about going back.

Guinea's environment is much better than Niger's, at least the castle-like houses can be seen everywhere, many of the world's top luxury cars can be seen on the streets, and the various hotels and restaurants are of a high standard.

They spent a few days relaxing on the beach in Conakry, eating a lot of crabs in the basin, and went to see the Guinea baboons and elephant herds.

Because of the good relationship with Huaxia, they were warmly received locally, and of course the money was not spent.

After a few days of wandering around Guinea, several men took a boat to Freetown, the capital of the neighboring country, Sierra Leone.

Sierra Leone is a country that many people may be unfamiliar with, but when it comes to diamonds, everyone is familiar with it.

Although the Star of Africa is not from Sierra Leone, a 706-carat super diamond was found here last year and sold for a whopping $7.79 million.

Soon after, a large 476-carat diamond was found in the same place.

So Sierra Leone is a good place, there are a lot of diamonds, maybe you can pick up a diamond by walking, dig and dig and dig, and you can dig up a diamond.

It's just that the puppet is not guilty of his guilt.

The big corporations and conglomerates in the West, in order to reap the huge profits, secretly supported the warlords and competed for the huge diamond wealth, and the whole country fell into civil war.

No matter what the war, it is the people at the bottom who are unlucky, and the local natives have suffered great disasters because of this, born on diamonds, but poor as a clang.

With a GDP per capita of more than $100 and an average life expectancy of only 35 years, it is now known as the most civilized era in history, and it is really unimaginable that there is such a place.

The diamonds of Sierra Leone are called blood diamonds, because they are stained with the blood and tears of the locals.

Wu Jun thinks that there is a saying on the Internet that is good, capitalists may have a bottom line and a human touch, but capital does not.

On the most lively and bustling streets of the capital Freetown, you can see Europeans and Americans with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in luxury cars, yellow-skinned and black-haired Orientals everywhere, and indigenous vendors wearing low-quality slippers and even barefoot with a basket of fruit on their heads.

In the more remote streets, tractors made of bamboo carports are also everywhere, and groups of unclothed children beg foreign tourists for food and money.

Wu Jun saw the old monk trying to dig out his pockets several times, but in the end he held back.

He didn't know what kind of complicated mental journey the old monk was going through, but he believed that he should be very uncomfortable at this time, and he might also be asking why the Buddha in his heart, who was so compassionate and compassionate, didn't come to save this place.

"Little master," said the old monk at last, "I want to stay here a few more days." ”

Wu Jun nodded casually, it didn't matter if he stayed for a few days, he still had a lot of time anyway.

So they stayed in a nice seaside hotel, and as for the documents and passports, there is no need to worry about such a trivial matter with people like Zhao Guangwu.

This also made Xiao Liu's opinion of Zhao Guangwu change, and he felt that Lao Zhao was not useless.

The next day, the old monk did not let people follow, and walked on the street alone, and after Wu Jun confirmed from the video that he would not be in danger, he and Xiao Liu came to the swimming pool of the hotel.

", it's so white!"

As soon as Zhao Guangwu walked in, he thought he was in the wrong place.

This is Africa, why is there a white flower in the swimming pool?

During this time, I have seen too many black brothers, and I am really a little unaccustomed to suddenly seeing so many white-skinned people.

Wu Jun also glanced at it casually, and found that there was really no dark skin in the rest and play here, and even the skin of the waiter was very light in color.

Zhao Guangwu's big black bald head is particularly conspicuous in the clear swimming pool.
