Chapter Seventy-One: Preparations Before Departure

The meal took about an hour. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I also learned from this meal that my task is to accompany the eight of them to the Taklamakan Desert to investigate and protect the safety of this group of people, and this expedition will last for about two months.

After eating, we walked out of the military guest house, to be honest, I was not full, there were countless delicacies from the mountains and seas on the table, but with such a group of people to eat, I believe that no one would be full. When we came to the gate of the military district guest house, a minibus stopped at the door.

At this time, the deputy political commissar pulled me aside and said to me: "They are all handed over to you, you should take care of them all the way, after all, they have never suffered since childhood." I've handed Xiaoman over to you, and you must bring her back to me completely. "I could see that the deputy commissar was full of helplessness.

I nodded to the deputy political commissar and said, "I will definitely complete the task, and I will definitely bring each of them back in its entirety." ”

Many people should know how dangerous the Taklamakan Desert is, which is called the Sea of Death by the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. But I don't know why He Xiaoman went there, or if he had an ideal of going to the desert since he was a child.

He Xiaoman and the deputy political commissar came to a deep hug and then got on the bus, He Xiaoman was obviously very happy.

"Xiaoman, be careful all the way, my father can't accompany you, remember to take good care of yourself on the road, and listen to Comrade Xiao Lu." The deputy political commissar watched He Xiaoman get into the car and admonished.

I threw my backpack into the car, and then I got into the car, and the minibus was filled with a lot of packages and boxes, which looked like the luggage and food of He Xiaoman's group. I sat next to He Xiaoman, and the car started to start.

They are ready to depart from Aksu, so now we are going to Aksu. It takes about seven or eight hours to travel from Urumqi to Aksu, and now it is already four o'clock in the afternoon, so everyone decided to stay overnight in Aksu in the evening, buy some supplies and camels the next day, and then set off the next afternoon.

The car didn't run long before He Xiaoman accosted me: "Look at you are still a recruit, what is your name?" He Xiaoman looked at me curiously.

I didn't look at He Xiaoman: "Killer." When He Xiaoman heard what I said, he laughed: "You are the legendary girl killer." The people in the car laughed when they heard He Xiaoman say this.

I looked at them in disgust and didn't speak. He Xiaoman continued: "It looks like you're not as old as us, don't pretend to be cold, okay?" I turned my face to look at He Xiaoman, but I still didn't say anything.

Seriously, I'm only eighteen years old now, maybe not too old or younger than them, but we don't belong to the same circle at all, so I don't have anything to say to them.

"Hey, you're just bored, boring." He Xiaoman saw that I didn't pay attention to her words, and she stopped talking to me, so she chatted with her classmates.

They chatted lively, while I closed my eyes and was full of curiosity about this trip to the desert. Actually, to be honest, I really like going to the desert to see, and it is very rare for me to have such an opportunity.

At about 11 p.m. we arrived in the city of Aksu and spent the night in a military guest house in Aksu. All this was arranged in advance by the deputy political commissar, and everyone simply ate something and went back to the room to sleep.

"You're here, you're finally here!" When I opened my eyes, it was already dawn. And I had a very strange dream last night, there was an ancient woman standing at the door outside a golden city tower and saying this to me, and the woman's appearance was somewhat similar to He Xiaoman.

After I got up and washed, He Xiaoman's group also got up, and they were obviously very excited to see He Xiaoman's appearance. After eating, everyone went to the market and bought some food, or more precisely to buy me food. Because they didn't plan for me at first, they prepared their food, and mine suddenly joined so they had to buy some more food.

After we came back, He Xiaoman gave me a large package, which contained my personal tent and quilt, as well as a high-energy flashlight and some tools for life. The food they put together and later divided it equally. He Xiaoman gave me a locator similar to a large-screen mobile phone, and we all installed trackers on us, on which we could see the location of the nine of us.

With that done, the car dropped us off at the nearest town to the Tucker Desert. One of us bought a camel, put all the supplies in the cart on the camel's back, and led the camel to start their expedition.

We hired a guide and asked him to take us into the desert, because they had to stay in the desert for two months to feed He Xiaoman, so it was not good for the guide to follow us all the time.

After about two hours of walking, I climbed a hill and there was a sandy area in front of us. Thinking of looking at us, he pointed to the Chinese in front of us and said to us: "When you arrive, be careful yourself, the nine of you must not be separated when you enter the desert, once you leave the team in the desert, it will be difficult to survive." ”

The guide looked at me, and I nodded to him, and I looked like a soldier in desert camouflage. Therefore, many words of the guide do not have to explain too much, and everyone's safety is more guaranteed if there is me.

He Xiaoman leaned to the yellow sand area in front of him, jumped up happily and shouted loudly: "Loulan, I'm here." Then he led the camel and walked forward. When I saw He Xiaoman, I couldn't help but think of the dream I had last night, the ancient woman who was very similar to He Xiaoman.

"This is the desert, haha, the master is going to conquer you today." Wan Shaofei led the camel and followed.

Wang Bo was also excited, and hurriedly pulled the camel and followed. In fact, for any archaeology enthusiast, the Taklamakan Desert is a dream place to visit.

Even I was curious about the desert, and everyone couldn't wait to pull the camels away. Thinking of watching us go, he shook his head and turned around and walked back.

At this time, it is September daytime, and the weather in Xinjiang is very hot during the day, but it is relatively cold at night, and the temperature difference between day and night is quite large. Everyone was wearing hats, and I didn't walk long before I saw them wiping their sweat, for He Xiaoman, a group of them grew up in the conditions of fine clothes and jade food since childhood, and they have never suffered hardship. I am also very impressed by their courage to come to Tucker for their inspection.
