Lei Zi suddenly grabbed the landlady's hand and said, "Women, sometimes you talk too much and you're not lovable."
"Okay, one more thing, you have to come out alive. There are fewer and fewer interesting men like you." The landlady said with a sweet smile.
"Tch, crow's mouth." Lei Zi pinched her: "What do you know?"
The landlady shrank and said, "What do you know?"
Lei Zi suddenly lifted up the skirt of the landlady with his hands. The landlady was wearing traditional Uighur costumes with very bright colors. The Uighurs are a nation that loves flowers. People wear embroidered hats, embroidered clothes and embroidered shoes.
, it’s embroidered
The flower scarf was carrying an embroidered bag. The landlady's skirt was also covered with flowers. The colorful colors made people's eyes dazzle. But Lei Zi's eyesight was really not very good. He grabbed the landlady's skirt.
:"What's this?"
Tang Sancheng took a look and saw that there was a symbol hidden in the pattern of the landlady's skirt, a golden crescent moon! This was exactly the same as the one on my young man Canghai's cloak just now!
Lei Zi pinched the wrist of the landlady: "Tell me, what organization are you?"
The landlady was in pain, and her moon-shaped eyebrows were distorted: "What kind of organization is this? We believe in the moon. Can't we embroider the moon on our clothes?"
This... Lei Zi couldn't say a word immediately. The Uighurs believe in Islam. The most prominent feature is the worship of the moon, especially in desert areas. The Islamic month of Ramadan starts from the first day of seeing the new moon.
During the month between fasting and breaking the fast when the new moon is seen again, many chapters in the Quran are named "Moon."
Lei Zi let go of his hand and blew on the boss's wife's wrist: "Sorry, sorry."
"Humph." The landlady twisted her back angrily and left: "I'm sorry, your meal money has to be paid in cash, and it will be doubled. I think this is your apology to me."
This woman really knows how to do business. Lei Zi spat helplessly on the ground. Fortunately, we will say goodbye tomorrow morning. Tang Sancheng was a little gleeful: "Look, how do you say that? I would rather offend the villain."
,Don’t offend a woman.”
"Get lost." Lei Zi pointed at Tang Sancheng's nose, his anger still lingering: "Don't talk to me within twenty-four hours."
Tang Sancheng felt guilty, flat-mouthed, and walked aside. Thinking about entering the desert tomorrow, he felt uncertain. He also thought about Xiao Ning being alone in Beijing. He didn't know what the situation was like. Hundreds of feelings came to his mind, and he became more and more uncomfortable.
Qixie handed over the water: "Drink water."
"Don't think too much, just have a good rest." Bai Yi seemed relaxed.
Early the next morning, everyone put everything in the basket and put it on the camel, waiting for the young man named Lun Hai to arrive. He arrived on time, with a camel behind him, and the camel's ears were actually pierced.
An ear is pierced with a silver ring hanging on it. Is this considered an exclusive mark?
"Let's go." Canghai glanced at the five people's equipment and said calmly.
A young man named Dahai led the camel and walked east. Bai Yi looked at the time. It was now 8:05 in the morning. At first, everyone was walking on the dirt road, with the man leading the camel. When they entered the desert, Dahai took the lead.
Riding on the camel, Lei Zi had experience riding a camel. He gently patted the camel's butt, and it knelt down obediently. Lei Zi jumped on it with a slight jump.
When we went up, Xiaoshan came unexpectedly. He jumped on the back of the camel with a jump of his legs. Dahai looked sideways and opened his mouth slightly. In terms of appearance, Xiaoshan and Dahai seemed to be of the same age. They were really two people.
There is nothing wrong with saying that one is gloomy and looks like someone who has grown up soaked in tears, and the other is sunny like someone who has been raised in the wild and the hills are free-range.
Bai Yi rode a camel to the side of the sea: "Dahai, we are looking for a plant, take a look."
Bai Yi took out the picture of the Lingxi fruit that he had drawn a long time ago and showed it to Dahai. The appearance of the Lingxi fruit came from the parchment scroll. Before leaving, Bai Yi copied it. Dahai took a look and suddenly looked stunned: "You guys
Looking for it?"
"Have you seen it?" Bai Yi was a little excited. He really didn't expect that he just came in and didn't have to go around in circles to get a clue.
The shape of this Lingxi fruit is somewhat like the moon, with leaves like crescents. The whole plant looks like a budding flower, with some small burrs on the leaves.
"Well, I've only seen it once." Dahai said, "I saw it when I was avoiding the sandstorm that time. This is the first time I've seen such a plant in the desert."
Great, Tang Sancheng also heard Dahai's words. He had no choice but to have good ears. He clamped his legs to make the camels go faster: "Where is the sandstorm? Take us there."
"It's very far there, almost across half of the desert." Dahai's words made everyone's hearts sink: "Besides, sandstorms can take away a lot of things. I don't know where this grass has gone."
Damn it! Tang Sancheng's fists clenched. He was most afraid of something like this passing by. The hope was clearly right in front of you, but it made you feel empty, and your joy turned into despair.
What Bai Yi thought was that if he had only seen the sea once, it meant that it was rare on the surface of the desert. The witchcraft book said that seven things grow in the underworld, and the Lingxi fruit comes from the ground.
Yes, it was just because of the sandstorm that it accidentally showed up in the desert.
"How many days does it normally take to get to that place?" Bai Yi suddenly asked.
"Two days and one night." Dahai said, "What I'm saying is that everything is normal."
"Let's go." Bai Yi said without hesitation. He had already caught a tail. There was no reason not to chase. Camels in the desert are like horses running on the grassland. In the sand, they have an absolute advantage.
Lei Zi has a good eye. These five camels are very strong. As for the one in the sea...
"The hind hooves seem to be very powerful." Qixie said, "The soles of the feet are also thicker than our camels."
"Could it be the 'bloody horse' among camels?" Tang Sancheng said.
Lei Zi was about to retort, but when he thought of the twenty-four-hour time limit he said, he immediately shut his mouth tightly.
Bai Yi realized a serious problem - water. The water he had been worried about was constantly being consumed due to regular and rationed drinking. If he really had to cross half of the desert and back, the water would be consumed midway.
, then the biggest problem is how to find water sources in the desert.
After traveling for three hours, it was uneventful. It could even be said to be... so smooth that it was scary. Lei Zi raised his head. In November, the desert sun was still very dazzling at noon. Suddenly, the sun disappeared.
After entering, it was at this time that Lei Zi saw "her". He looked up and saw "she" standing in front of a well in mid-air...
