"The sea. The boy said, "Everyone calls me Xiaohai." “

"Okay, Xiaohai, where do you live, what time will you meet us tomorrow?" Bai Yi asked him.

"I'll come over tomorrow at eight o'clock, you don't need to worry about where I live." The boy said, "Prepare your camels yourselves, and I'll go first." “

"How many, looking for camels?" The shrewd proprietress appeared next to Lei Zi like a ghost: "Do you want to help?" “

Lei Zi glanced at her: "It's definitely not free, you're really shrewd, but this time I know where it is, and I don't need you anymore." Lei Zi patted the pretty face of the proprietress: "Let's go, find the camel." “

The proprietress watched them leave, and an inexplicable look suddenly appeared on her face: "Alas, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out if I go in, so make more money." “

Lei Zi took Bai Yi and them to find the Luo team, here, anything can change, only the Luo team will exist forever, they rely on this desert to live, the camel is the savior in the desert, the ship of the desert, resistant to hunger and thirst, can not eat for four or five days in a row, do not drink, have hairy ears, can block when the wind and sand enter, with double eyelids and thick long eyelashes, can prevent the wind and sand from entering the eyes, and the nose can be closed freely. （）

The camel caravan in this town is in the northernmost part, Lei Zi walked over with a group of people, and saw that there were outsiders, and the loose residents on both sides looked at them with strange eyes, and then bowed their heads and did things silently, Lei Zi sighed: "There is really no big difference between here and before, but there are more people." “

"Because of the ruins of the ancient country of Loulan, this is the only way to go." Bai Yi said: "Now it is different from before, and I have begun to pay attention to tourism projects. “

The times are always changing unconsciously, this town is not big, there are few shops, most of them are small stalls on the side of the road, selling some local small food, all the way over, the aroma is fragrant, it is a unique cake, it is very crispy when it is just baked, Tang Sancheng is already swallowing saliva......

"Here we are." The aroma of the food was immediately replaced by the unique smell of the animals, and Lei Zi sniffled: "I can smell them." “

This is a place dedicated to renting camels, more than a dozen camels are leisurely in the yard to spend their steps, as soon as Lei Zi entered, he patted one of them on the stomach, this camel is a very gentle animal, in the face of outsiders, but also very calm and steady, the boss is actually an authentic Han man, seeing a guest coming, quickly greeted out: "How many people want to rent camels?" “

"Yes. "Lei Zi knows that renting a camel and buying a camel are actually about the same, because there is a huge deposit to pay, and once it cannot be returned, it will be deducted, and in this desert, camels will also encounter accidents like people, and I don't know how many camels are buried in the yellow sand.

The camel is divided into two types: dromedary and bitritum, the dromedary is relatively tall, can walk and run in the desert, can transport goods, and can also carry people. Bactrian camels have stubby limbs, which is more suitable for walking on gravel and snow, the camels here are all unimodary, Lei Zi checked the soles of the camels, some camels were injured in the previous rental, so they should be avoided, look at Lei Zi's movements skillfully, the boss knows that he has met an expert.

Lei Zi selected five dromedary camels, and bought a pair, which could be loaded with supplies, put on the camel's back, and paid happily, Tang Sancheng muttered in his heart, fortunately, the harvest last time was quite rich, and when he came here, everything was doubled.

On the way back, I prepared some dry food and water, among the five people, three of them had guns, when they were in Gu Kunlun before, the guns fell into the water, fortunately they were repaired, knowing that the desert was dangerous, Bai Yi specially prepared some more bullets, and the flying knives were also prepared, leading the camel back, the proprietress looked stupid, complained to Lei Zizhi, complained that he had disturbed his opportunity to make money, and Lei bullet her face: "Boss, you can't be too greedy." （）“

Looking around, "It's strange, November is the most comfortable time here, why are there so few guests?" Lei Zi was a little puzzled in his heart, people who often travel here know that October and November are the golden period of the desert, and the climate is the most comfortable.

"Cut, what time is it, there are still few rich people who come to play." The proprietress said disdainfully: "Only people like you are not afraid of death, even if you go to see Loulan, you actually want to go into the depths of the desert." “

Lei Zi suddenly grabbed the hand of the proprietress: "Women, sometimes it's unlikable to talk too much." “

"Well, again, you'll have to come out alive, there are fewer and fewer interesting men like you." The proprietress said with a smile.

"Cut, Crow's Beak." Lei Zi pinched her: "What do you know?" “

The proprietress shrank her body: "What do you know?" “

Lei Zi suddenly lifted the skirt of the proprietress with his hand, the proprietress was wearing the traditional costume of the Uyghur people, the color was very bright, the Uyghur people were a nation that loved flowers, people wore embroidered hats, embroidered clothes, embroidered shoes, embroidered scarves, embroidered bags, the proprietress skirt was also covered with flowers, colorful colors made people's eyes go away, but Lei Zi's eyesight was really not ordinarily good, he grabbed the proprietress's skirt: "What is this?" “

Tang Sancheng saw that there was a sign hidden in the pattern of the proprietress skirt, the golden crescent! This is exactly the same as the one on my boy's sea cloak just now!

Lei Zi pinched the proprietress's wrist: "Say, what kind of organization are you?" “

The proprietress was in pain, and a pair of moon-like eyebrows were twisted and deformed: "What kind of organization, we believe in the moon, can't we embroider the moon on our clothes?" “

This one...... Lei Zi immediately couldn't say a word, the Uyghurs believe in Islam, the most significant feature is the worship of the moon, especially in the desert area, the Islamic month of Ramadan, is from the first day of seeing the new moon to fast, to see the new moon again and break the fast for a month, many chapters in the Quran are called "moon." “

Lei Zi let go of his hand and blew on the wrist of the proprietress at the same time: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." “

"Hmph." The proprietress twisted her waist angrily and left: "I'm sorry, your meal money has to be settled in cash, and it will be doubled, so it will be regarded as your reparation for me." “

This woman is really good at business, Lei Zi spat on the ground helplessly, fortunately we will say goodbye tomorrow morning, Tang Sancheng was a little excited: "Look, how do you say that sentence, it is better to offend the villain than to offend the woman." “

"Get out." Lei Zi pointed at Tang Sancheng's nose, and his anger had not yet subsided: "Don't talk to me within twenty-four hours." “

Tang Sancheng reasoned with a loss, flattened his mouth, walked aside, thinking that he was going to enter the desert tomorrow, and he didn't know how the situation was, and thinking that Xiao Ning was alone in Beijing, I didn't know what the situation was, a hundred tastes came to mind, and the more uncomfortable it became, and the seven evils handed over the water: "Drink water." “

"Don't overthink it, just get some rest." Bai Yi looked relaxed.

The next morning, everyone put everything in the hitchhiker, put it on the camel, and waited for the arrival of the young man named Ronghai, who came on time, and behind him was a camel, and the camel's ears actually wore a pierced ear, and hung a silver ring, which was an exclusive sign?

"Let's go." Canghai swept the equipment of the five people and said lightly.

The young man named Dahai led the camel to the east, Bai Yi looked at the time, it was now eight o'clock in the morning, everyone started walking on the dirt road, people led the camels, and so on into the desert, the sea took the lead on the camels, Lei Zi had experience in riding camels, gently patted the camel's buttocks, it obediently knelt down, Lei Zi jumped lightly and rode up, the hill came by surprise, jumped directly with both legs, and jumped on the back of the camel, the sea saw it sideways, the mouth was slightly open, on appearance, Xiaoshan and the sea seem to be the same age, these two are really two extremes, one gloomy as if he grew up soaked in tears, the other sunny as if he was raised in the wilderness, and Xiaoshan is free-range, this is not wrong.
