Chapter 207: Mirage
After another half an hour, the truck arrived in Yecheng County, and I asked Liu Erbiao again in the car: "Which direction are we going?"
However, Liu Erbiao was very strict-mouthed, and said don't ask, Mr. Guo can't say anything about the location, in short, I will take you to the place you think of.
As a result, I had no choice but to spread my hands and agree, after all, he was also ordered to do it, so I no longer embarrassed him.
However, there are many people who don't understand in my heart: isn't it just asking for a direction? Isn't that also known?
Just after I asked Liu Erbiao this question, he suddenly stopped the truck and told the two of us to get out of the car!
We didn't understand why we got out of the car, this is the county seat of Yecheng County, and at this time we stopped in front of a storefront, which is a tailor's shop.
Liu Erbiao said to go in and have a look. What do you want to do inside? Is our trip just to a shop?
As a result, I found out that Liu Erbiao was here to buy cloth, and after buying the cloth, he asked the tailor to make two head coverings, the cloth was black cloth, and almost nothing could be seen on the head!
Liu Erbiao is preparing a black cloth hood for us! No wonder you want to go to a tailor's shop!
Then the next road is absolutely confidential! What could be such a secret?
I heard Luo Dong say that he was going to find another person named Luo Dong, so the place to go must be the place where another Luo Dong is!
Without further ado, we continued on our way, the difference was that Dr. Qiao and I both wore hoods, and once the hoods were on, we couldn't see anything, and if we wanted to find the direction, we had to rely on our senses!
If we follow our feelings, there may be deviations, because we don't know if Liu Erbiao will go around and disrupt our feelings, and when the time comes, if we look back and look for it again, I'm afraid we can't do anything!
Don't worry about that, just let it be. As the truck was moving, it went around left and right as it was assumed, going around in circles!
In the end, it went straight to a place, and the temperature was getting hotter and hotter!
During the period, wearing a hood and closing his eyes, he flickered in the car, feeling as if he was asleep, but he could feel the car moving.
The truck finally stopped, and when Liu Erbiao said that he could take off the hood, he took it off.
When I took off my hood, I was a little dumbfounded when I looked out through the glass of the truck, and there was a desert in front of me! The truck is parked right on the edge of the desert!
"Desert?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, Luodong, they're in the middle of the desert," Liu Erbiao said.
"Let's get out of the car now?" I asked again.
"No, the truck can still move now, and when it really can't move forward, you can only get out of the car!"
The truck continued to move, this time it was a desert trip, the road was soft and soft, and I felt that the truck would sink into the sand in the next moment!
"How long have we been open?" That's when we realized that the sun was about to set, so it meant that we might have been driving all afternoon, but we felt like we were in the truck for a long time!
When I heard Liu Erbiao's answer, I was surprised! And as expected, he said, "We've been on the road for a day and a night!"
No wonder Liu Erbiao's eyes are red! Where is the road for a day and a night! From yesterday noon to the present evening, we have walked for one day, one night and half a day!
looked at Liu Erbiao at this time, and said: "Comrade Erbiao, let's stop the truck and take a break!" Let's eat something, we can't stand it like this! ”
Comrade Liu Erbiao waved his hand but said: "No, it's not too late to rest after you arrive, if you are hungry, you will eat well."
Xin said that he was really a good comrade who was dutiful, and he didn't persuade him again, and he was indeed hungry, so he took out the package and took out the food and ate some with Dr. Qiao.
The sun is sinking! As night fell, the air in the desert took a sharp turn, and a gust of wind blew away the sultry heat of the desert.
The desert is windy, and sandstorms are frequent, day and night, and there is no warning!
At this time, Liu Erbiao was still driving the truck in the desert, and suddenly the yellow sand swept in from far and near under the reflection of the truck headlights!
The next moment, I couldn't see the road ahead clearly! The truck had to stop!
The sand crackles and crashes against the doors and windows of the truck with a loud noise! Even the swaying truck is unstable! The doors and windows of the truck are tight, and the sand still gets in some of them!
Liu Erbiao turned off the fire, turned off the truck headlights, and couldn't move forward, so he had to wait for the sandstorm to pass with peace of mind!
In-car ......
"Comrade Er Biao, this is the Taklamakan Desert in Xinjiang, right? I can't think of a desert anywhere else! Looking at Liu Erbiao's bloodshot eyes, his eyes flickered!
"Yes, it's the Taklamakan Desert." Liu Erbiao wanted not to say it, but I have already said this desert place, and he has no reason to defend himself!
"The Taklamakan Desert is vast, and it can be said that it occupies a large area of Xinjiang! I'm a little hard to say where this is. Liu Erbiao didn't respond to me, he knew that I was tricking him, and he found something to eat in the dark!
"Er Biao, don't we have a flashlight!" With that, I took out my flashlight and turned it on!
The sandstorm outside was still going on, and there was a flashlight in the swaying car, but for a moment there was silence!
Dr. Joe doesn't know how to adjust the atmosphere, and I have no intention of spoiling the silence.
Time passed slowly in our silence, Liu Erbiao finished eating, and slept with his back against the chair when he had nothing to do.
Looking at the sandstorm that was still going on outside, I remembered a story that my grandfather had told me, a story that happened in the desert.
He said that in the middle of the night, a group of tomb robbers entered a desolate desert, and there were five of them, each of whom was very good and knew how to find dragons.
It stands to reason that they should go to rob the tomb, but they heard that there is a thousand-year-old city in the desert, and this thousand-year-old city is buried in the desert, and they also heard that there are countless gold and silver treasures in this ancient city!
This is the root of their motivation, when they embark on a trip to the desert, they find that there are many difficulties, they are exhausted of water and food, and there is almost no hope of survival!
However, just when they were desperate, an ancient city appeared in front of their eyes, and they ignited their surging fighting spirit, and it was with this force that they were supported!
As everyone knows, the ancient city that appeared was actually a mirage......
