Chapter 329: Heavenly Star Feng Shui
In the past, I heard people say that Xinjiang is wearing a leather jacket in the morning and a yarn in the afternoon, and eating watermelon around the stove, which was originally a little skeptical, but now I know that this sentence is not exaggerated, and the temperature difference between day and night is really not ordinarily large.
After a full hour of busy work, everything finally quieted down, this place can't even find dry firewood, so you can only use your own alcohol stove to boil some hot water, one is cool at night, drink some hot water to warm your body, and two can also make some instant noodles.
There is no washing water in the desert, let alone washing your face, even if it is mouthwash, you have to swallow it, this is what Lao Yang Tou said.
He said that in the desert, water is the most important thing, and every drop of water should not be wasted, as for washing hands, sand is fine, dry cleaning.
There was a wind blowing from time to time along the way, but fortunately the guide said that it was not the wind season, otherwise the strong winds in the desert would be able to sweep any camel up the sky, and only God knows where it blew.
Even without the kind of strong wind that the guide said, I was a mouthful of sand, and when I first spat out the sand, the guide sternly warned me not to spit out the sand when I spit out.
Isn't this fucking going to kill me? Who can just spit out the sand and saliva left? However, because we were well prepared, the guide only warned me and said nothing.
It's just that when he was leaving, an unintentional remark scared me a lot, he said, in the desert, he doesn't know that people who cherish every drop of water are not worthy of survival.
The fat man didn't care about this, he spat the sand in one gulp, and sometimes he would drink a sip of water and squirt it out to wash his hands, and he could see that the guide's eyes were round, but the fat man didn't look tall, but he looked quite murderous, and the guide didn't dare to say anything.
In terms of survival experience in the desert, the fat man is definitely not inferior to this guide. However, his roads are all wild, and everyone's path is different.
It was already past ten o'clock in the night after dinner, because it was too cold, we all went into the tents to rest, the camels were really damn good, the smell of fish was also big, and I still grinded my legs when I rode up, after this incident, I will never go into the desert again in my life.
I always listen to those literati and writers describe the beautiful scenery of the long river and the sunset and the lonely desert. In addition, Genghis Khan, who is the Legend of the Condor Heroes, is far away in the desert, and always feels a sense of desolation and heroism, but after experiencing it himself, he found that it is not like that at all.
In the desert, the first thing people should do is not to enjoy the beautiful scenery, not to sigh, but to survive, and even survival is not guaranteed. Who is in the mood to sigh at the beauty of the desert? Isn't that?
"Ryoko, come out and keep vigil with me!"
As soon as I got into the tent and opened my sleeping bag, I heard the fat man beckoning me outside. I had to reluctantly drill out.
Recently, I also made up for my knowledge about the desert, and I know that there are not any creatures in the desert, in fact, the creatures in the desert are also very rich, but people rarely see them.
The most important deserts are rattlesnakes, cobras, sand snakes, and sand scorpions, to name a few. These things are extremely poisonous, and even if they are stung by a sand scorpion, they can be killed, so if they inhabit the desert. Vigil is essential.
Walking on his tired legs, he walked out and came to the fat man with a semi-automatic shotgun.
"Yo, Ryoko, there is really the wind of a general! Walking. ”
The fat man made a mistake, looking at my strange walking appearance with a smile and making fun of me, no way, even if the inside of the two thighs is padded with toilet paper, it still grinds painfully, and it is strange to call it a strange character.
I myself feel that I have a fight with the eunuchs who have just been purified in ancient times, the difference is that we are two places, but fortunately, Lao Tzu's place is no problem.
I was in no mood to fight with him, so I stood with my shotgun and legs apart, and the night breeze blew, freezing my lips a little blue.
"Don't be upset, you'll know later, hold on, in the desert, those who don't have a vigil will die."
The fat man sat directly on the sand, vigilantly looking around, although the weather was very cold, his fat body was quite frost-resistant, and he was still energetic.
I'm a typical person who can't sit down when I stand up, and I can't get up once I sit down, and I don't dare to sit down like this, the sand on the ground is cold.
Looking around, the camels we rode were led around the tent by the guide, which was the first barrier, and we had time to react to any emergencies.
The moon was very large and round, and the whole desert was not dark, but it was almost the same as the day, except that from time to time a gust of wind whirled in the distance, making a whimpering sound, which sounded quite terrible.
"Fatty, you said there wouldn't be anything dirty in this desert, did you?"
I'm a little hairy in my heart, we haven't encountered any dirty things in the desert, and if I do, will my true dragon's blood still work? If it doesn't work, then I'm miserable.
"Of course there is, not only that, but not a few? The desert devours the most human life, and more people die in the desert than anywhere else outside of wartime, and most of them die of thirst or are bitten by poisonous snakes. ”
The fat man looked serious, and I wanted to beat him up.
"Can't you comfort me? What if we encounter something dirty? ”
I felt my voice tremble a little.
"What to do? What else can I do with cold salad? If you think about it, the desert is the least familiar place for me, and if you really encounter dirty things, the biggest possibility is that the ghosts will cover our eyes and let us go around in circles in the desert until all the food and water are exhausted, and the end result will be to die here like them. ”
The fat man's words became more and more terrifying, and if he lost his way in the desert that could not be seen at a glance, it would really be a shame for the heavens and the earth.
Moreover, the wind often blows in the desert, and not long after a person or a camel walks by, a gust of wind blows, and there is not even a trace, even if you want to go back, it is impossible.
"What then? We've got to figure out a way! If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, if this kind of thing happens to us, wouldn't it be me who hurt you? ”
Originally, this was my own business, the fat man and Huang Tian were purely here to help, I really couldn't bear to talk about dying here with me, and I didn't want to die myself, Yueyue was pregnant, and I haven't seen my son yet. You can't just die, can you?
"Don't worry, as long as we don't encounter a big sandstorm, with our ability, there will always be a way."
The voice came from behind, I turned my head to look, Huang Tian didn't rest, he walked out with a gun, I frowned and said, "Brother Tian, why don't you go to sleep?" It was enough for both of us to have a day's drive here. Aren't you tired? ”
"I can't sleep, I came to talk to you, in fact, it's not just me, many people haven't fallen asleep, just settled down, who can say that they fall asleep when they fall asleep? Except for the fat guy. ”
Huang Tian smiled, came to my side, and looked at the sky for a long time, I thought there was something popular. I hurriedly looked up, but my neck hurt, and I didn't even see a plane.
"What do you see? There is not even a cloud in the sky except the moon and stars. What's there to see? ”
"You don't understand that, do you?" The fat man took out a cigarette on the side, threw one to me, and said while smoking: "Xiao Tian'er not only knows how to read feng shui, his feng shui can be said to be a masterpiece. If there is anyone in this world who can be more attained than his Feng Shui attainments, I don't believe it, even his dead ghost master is not as good as him. ”
The fat man spat out a smoke ring. I pierced the smoke ring with a cigarette, and the smoke ring broke, "He is a master of art, and he is good at Tianxing Feng Shui, which no one knows except me." ”
Celestial Star Feng Shui? I was stunned for a moment, isn't feng shui all dwarfed? Check the direction of the geography of the mountains and rivers, determine the dragon vein, the book says so, and some say what is the gold and the acupoint, looking for the dragon and exploring the vein, etc., but nine times out of ten are fictional, is there really a celestial star feng shui?
I looked at the yellow sky, and at this time, he no longer looked up at the sky, but lowered his head and calculated something, drawing lines on the sand with his fingers.
Originally, I had learned a little bit about Feng Shui from him, but now it seems that I don't understand what the intersecting lines he drew on the sand meant.
After about ten minutes, Huang Tian finally erased all the lines drawn on the ground, and then explained to me with a smile about the celestial star feng shui and his observations just now.
There is really Tianxing Feng Shui, and its origin is earlier than the earth's vein Feng Shui, because people first know the earth, and they are full of yearning and awe for the sky, which can be seen from the worship of the sun and the moon.
From the original Jiang Ziya to Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period, he was good at watching the sky at night.
Of course, now it seems that this is not scientific at all, according to this statement, every meteor shower does not kill a lot of people? And there are people dying all the time in this world, but you don't necessarily see meteors every day.
However, the later celestial star feng shui is more about the influence of certain stars in the sky, or galaxies, on us living on the earth.
I can judge some geography based on celestial phenomena, which is more esoteric, anyway, I don't know, and I don't know how it is affected.
At this time, Huang Tian told me a fact that I also know, that is, ancient Egypt or the Mayans had pyramids, but some pyramids had holes in them, and the coffin of a certain pharaoh in Egypt, that is, the coffin, after opening, the starlight of the North Star happened to shine on his face through a hole, which has to be said to be a miracle.
Therefore, the celestial star feng shui is also well documented, and just now he calculated it through the observation of the starry sky here, combined with his own knowledge.
"This is not the oldest Peacock River, but the Peacock River after the reroute, the oldest Peacock River should be about two kilometers away from here, but now it is all yellow sand, nothing can be seen, as long as we walk along this ancient river, we will definitely be able to reach the Loulan ruins."
"Presumably the guide meant the same thing, it is not easy to get lost along the ancient river, but it is the closest. In about a day and a half, we will be able to see the ruins of Guloulan. ”
At this time, I suddenly felt a little anxious, so I told them to find a downwind direction, turned over a sand beam, and was about to solve my personal problems, just when I was just squatting, I suddenly saw a few gray-brown figures not far away, and the green eyes were like small light bulbs in the moonlight.
In an instant, my blood was cold...... (To be continued......)
