Chapter 269: Some Things Have to Be Done
,!
After the press conference, it was a relatively relaxed reception, I found Lu Qianyu in the most crowded place, he may be the reason for the large change in temperature during the change of seasons recently, and his body has been very weak, so he rarely participates in this kind of social sincerity, if it is not for the great significance to me today, he will not come in person.
I saw him sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a well-dressed suit, with a faint smile to deal with those business celebrities, in the past, Lu Qianyu always had an arrogant and uninhibited look in his eyes, and there was a kind of domineering that was trampled under his feet all over the world, but the years smoothed his arrogance, making his whole person soft, but also exuding a sense of alienation from people, so even if he was in a wheelchair, the businessmen around him still did not dare to despise him, but would bend down slightly to him when talking to him.
It's just that he seems to have been staying for a long time, and his face is slightly pale, probably a little tired.
I hurriedly walked into the crowd a few steps, and there was a voice of congratulations next to me, I smiled and exchanged a few words with them, and then pushed Lu Qianyu to apologize to them for not being with them.
Avoiding the gaze of the crowd, I pushed Lu Qianyu to a place with few people, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows just to see the scenery of the city, in this somewhat foggy night, it seemed a little unreal dream.
He put his hand back on me, and I walked around to him and asked, "Are you tired?" Why don't I let Xiao Yang send you home first? ”
He shook his head and clenched my hand: "Today is not only a big day for you, but also a big day for both of us. ”
His dark brown eyes, beautiful as glass in the light of crystal lamps, stared at me silently with a hint of inquiry and uncertain longing.
I know he's waiting for me to keep my promise.
I squatted down and handed my hands to him, raised my head and said with flashing eyes: "We met again in the UAE that year, just like God arranged, let me meet you, but also let me meet the myth in the desert, more than two years have passed, I still can't forget that scene, do you know Qianyu, it is a feeling of imminent movement has been hidden in my heart, I really want to build a desert myth that belongs to us on the land of China, but at that time I felt that all this was very far away, but today I have the ability, I feel that I can't wait for a moment, You know what that feels like? It's just that there's something in your mind, and you know that one day you have to do it! ”
He stared at me deeply, and I looked at him urgently, trying to see the emotion in his eyes, but he lowered his head, took my hand, put it to his lips, kissed it, and whispered, "I understand." ”
The tip of my nose was a little moved: "I'm going to Kubuqi, and when I come back, everything will be up to you." ”
He held my strength and gradually tightened, looked at me firmly, and solemnly promised me: "Okay! ”
……
I chose Kubuqi because it is the closest desert to Kyoto among the seven deserts in my country, and it will have a slight advantage in terms of transportation, and this is my first time to investigate, before I left, I had no idea of the real desert at all, and I have never been in contact with it in the past 30 years of my life.
I know that I can't eat a big fat man in one bite, so this time, my purpose is also very clear, to understand some of the geographical environment and location of Kubuqi and some specific local conditions, do a good job of recording work, and come back for further deployment, but because this kind of attempt has no precedent, so, I have to go in person!
Originally, I was going to let Xiao Yang go with me, but he is also very busy now, I am gone with him, and it is inevitable that some things will not be busy, so I simply left him behind, and only brought a designer Liang Kai, and a very powerful engineer under Ajer, Wu Weiguo, and a few surveyors who had contacted him agreed to gather directly in Baoshi to enter the desert together.
Li Fan heard that no one around me had brought anyone with him, and even Xiao Yang had left behind, and scolded me on the phone, saying that I was messing around, and I said with a smile after listening to her scolding: "Sister, I'm lazy, you help me check what to bring on the Internet." ”
Li Fan was angry, and finally I was afraid that my big things would not be packed up, so I drove to the door of Lu Qianyu's house, I asked her to come in, she refused to live or die, I had to go out, in the car she handed me a big suitcase, and instructed uneasily: "I will bring you sleeping bags, tents, and stoves, and check them again when you leave, don't forget the skin care products, there is a lot of dust over there, and there are headscarves..."
She chattered like an old mother for a long time, and I dragged her arm and leaned on her shoulder: "Okay, I know everything, I'm going to investigate, not archaeology, why do you bring a tent?" ”
Li Fan glared at me: "You take it with me." ”
I reluctantly said, "Got it." ”
Then she looked into the room and suddenly asked me, "Did you sleep with him?" ”
I almost choked to death with a mouthful of my own saliva, and I deeply doubt that Li Fan will inquire into my private life when he is eighty years old!
I hurriedly let go of her, opened the car door, pulled out my luggage, and waved to her: "Goodbye." ”
Li Fan leaned over and smiled evilly: "It's nothing to sleep, that kid looks good, you are not shallow, but it is estimated... I'm a little tired when I'm busy. ”
I slammed the co-pilot's door behind me with my luggage and said to her, "You have the courage to say this in front of Li Ziluo in the future!" ”
After speaking, regardless of Li Fan's frightened expression, he dragged his luggage and walked into the courtyard gate.
Lu Qianyu probably saw that I was dragging my luggage and just opened the door for me, I almost hit his chest, I was stunned, my face was flushed, and he asked me a little inexplicably: "What's wrong with you?" ”
I was ridiculed by Li Fan, and I actually saw that Lu Qianyu's back head was full of indescribable pictures, and for a while I felt that my three views on Nima were not correct, and I didn't even answer, so I ran back to the room with a few steps.
In this way, I embarked on the road to the Kubuqi Desert, and the two colleagues I traveled with were big men, Wu Weiguo, who was engaged in engineering, looked like a rough man who stayed on the construction site all the year round, and the designer Liang Kai and his painting style were the opposite, wearing rimless glasses, and Sven was clean.
The three of us arrived at Baoshi, met with the survey team, rented a car and rushed directly from Baoshi to Kubuqi.
I sat in the back row and opened the book of Sanmao's "The Story of the Sahara", and saw Sanmao cooking all kinds of Chinese dishes for Jose, and I thought of my little figure who was busy in the kitchen, after Li Ziluo left, I don't know how long I haven't cooked, I used to hear people say that the food made with feelings will taste different, I only know that Li Ziluo loved to eat the food I made at that time, until he left, I didn't understand that the food I made was not very delicious.
Later, when I saw Jose and Sanmao pulling a certificate and fighting a war, I couldn't help but think that on the day I and Li Ziluo were involved in the testimony, I was so embarrassed and cried like a fool, he kissed my tears gently and put this small ring on my ring finger.
When I got divorced, I cried like a fool and gave him back the ring...
Thinking of this, I closed the book and unconsciously touched the ring finger of my left hand.
It's just that I used to think less, sleep more, like to cry and laugh, but I was taken away by him a long time ago...
Inexplicably, my heart was flooded with a burst of unconcealable colic, I suddenly felt a little stuffy, so I opened the window, but when I looked out, the magic of nature came into view, on one side is the yellow sand in the sky, on the other side is the green grassland, and our car is in the middle of the road shuttle, as if I am running at the junction of despair and hope, I suddenly feel a kind of excitement that is about to move inexplicably occupies the whole brain.
Soon, the car stopped at the edge of the desert, and the survey team we hired came to tell us that if we consider the location of the hotel, it is best to be in the desert park, there are lakes and wetlands and other natural scenery, the hotel is also good to carry out project operations, and this place is convenient for transportation, and the surrounding desert scenery is also good.
I walked towards the yellow sand, squatted down and grabbed a handful of sand, and suddenly I felt something in the center of my hand pricking my hand, I released it and saw that it was the pull tab on the drink can.
Then he stood up and vetoed: "Go inside!" ”
When we arrived at the edge of the desert, it was exactly noon, and Zhang Fenqiang, the leader of the survey team, had been to Kubuqi, and he remembered that there was a desert pastoral area further inside, but it was not clear how far it was, and if we wanted to continue to investigate it, we should try to contact the herdsmen who lived in the pastoral area, settle there, and take the pastoral area as the center to investigate outward, otherwise it would be more or less dangerous for us to blindly enter the desert.
We all felt that this proposal was relatively safe, so Wu Weiguo and a few members of the survey team went to the house near the scenic spot to find a local guide to inquire about the situation, and by the way, rented a few camels, and had so much luggage to carry.
When they went to inquire, I had already gotten into the car and changed into a wide windbreaker to wrap myself tightly, and took off my shoes again, afraid that the sand would get into the shoes, so I changed into a pair of tight-fitting boots, and ate something casually in the car and looked at the unknown desert in front of me, and my heart was beating suddenly.
After a while, Wu Weiguo and they came back, bringing back a good news and a bad news, the bad news is that the locals said that it is now April, the most serious time of the sandstorm, according to the weather forecast, there will be strong winds after the evening, if we leave immediately, we can almost rush to the nearest camping site in the desert around the evening, Love Lake.
But! The weather was terrible for the next few days, and we might not be able to go out again when we got to Love Lake, in case we were stuck there, there was no place in front of the village, no store, and it was not even convenient to take a shower and go to the toilet, which was a very fucked up thing.
But if we don't move today, we don't know when we will be able to cooperate that day, and everything will become unknown.
The good news is that we can rent a local buggy, and the guide will drive us to the pastoral area first, if we drive to the pastoral area around the evening, the luggage can wait for a few days, the weather is stable and then the camels will be transported in, the guide and the herdsmen in the pastoral area are also very familiar, agreed to help us contact the accommodation, no need to eat and sleep, but the guide quoted a ridiculously high price, which is completely the rhythm of Zai Kaizi.
We discussed it, at this juncture, it is impossible for a group of people to spend here, anyway, hiring a survey team is also calculated on a daily basis, and the money is to be spent, so the three of us decided to leave immediately!
