Zhang Tiegen and his group spent the entire night groping in the mountains. Finally, at dawn, they walked out of the deserted area and discovered an inhabited Arab village.
Zhang Tiegen and others entered the village to take a rest and asked the locals for some food to fill their stomachs. After some inquiring, they found out that this was a village below the city of Buraimi in the Buraimi Province of Oman.
Zhang Tiegen and the others felt happy because they had not lost their way and had taken the right direction and path by relying on the guidance of the stars at night.
It is less than thirty kilometers away from the urban area of Buraimi.
After Zhang Tiegen and others recovered their physical strength a little, they naturally wanted to continue their efforts and hurried to a city like Blaimi. In this small mountain village near the border, if there was any interrogation or the like, they themselves would
If you have not cleared customs in Oman and are arrested as a cross-border terrorist, it will be a very troublesome matter.
Therefore, Zhang Tiegen took out US dollars and bought a tattered pickup truck covered with loess and dust with local villagers. After he also asked people about the road and direction to Buraimi City, this group of people
Then we got on the broken truck and drove along the yellow sandy dirt road.
Zhang Tiegen and others were sitting in the back of a broken truck. A cloud of yellow dust was rising from the back of the truck. The sun was shining brightly above their heads. This weather was almost as hot as the weather in southern China at the end of July. It made people almost collapse from the sun.
feeling.
Fortunately, they were sitting on top of the car, and the wind caused by the movement of the car was quite strong, otherwise they would have been burned to death by the sun on the road.
In fact, the scenery here in Buraimi is much better than that in the United Arab Emirates. Although it is also hot and dry here, it actually belongs to the Al Buraimi Oasis. The place that once belonged to the United Arab Emirates was later assigned to Oman. It is even more magical.
Interestingly, Oman sold half of a city to the United Arab Emirates a few decades ago...
Anyway, Chinese people will never understand the thinking of foreigners.
Therefore, what Zhang Tiegen and the others saw along the way was not actually a sky filled with yellow sand. Instead, they saw a lot of tropical plants and crops, which added a touch of color to the boring journey.
After more than an hour of bumpy journey, Zhang Tiegen and others finally entered the city of Blaimi. Looking at the city with people coming and going, Zhang Tiegen and his group suddenly felt like they had come back to life again.
So without saying anything, they immediately found a store selling cold drinks and food in the old city, rushed in and ate there, which was extremely refreshing.
Seeing the crazy appearance of these foreign men eating, as if they had never had a cold drink in their lives, all the local salesmen in Blaimi were dumbfounded.
After eating until everyone felt as if a big ice cube was about to form in their stomachs, and they began to feel that their stomachs couldn't bear it anymore, Zhang Tiegen and others finally paid the bill and left, feeling very refreshed.
Afterwards, Zhang Tiegen and others drove the broken truck around the old city for a while and began to look for a hotel.
Although Zhang Tiegen and the others now carry more than nine hundred thousand US dollars in cash, which is enough for them to find any kind of high-end hotel here to eat, drink and have fun.
However, Zhang Tiegen and the others are stowaways now, so they should keep a low profile. They don't have to fantasize about high-end rooms in high-end hotels for the time being.
In the end, Zhang Tiegen and the others found a small hotel, which from the outside looked exactly like an ordinary house here:
It is built on the edge of a small street, only three stories high, with a small balcony on each floor. The outside walls are snow-white, which looks very old and not very clean.
The buildings are almost all stuck together and divided into a narrow alley in the middle.
After Zhang Tiegen and others entered the hotel, they threw a large stack of U.S. dollars to the hotel owner, which frightened the hotel owner. He stared at the pile of U.S. dollars with a pair of greedy little eyes, and his mustache moved accordingly.
Moved.
Then, without any obstacles, Zhang Tiegen and others booked all the rooms in this small hotel and asked the hotel owner not to accept any more guests.
The hotel owner looked at this group of arrogant Chinese people and could only sigh in his heart: they used to say that they were tycoons from the Middle East, but now times have changed greatly, and only then can the Chinese people be considered real
Rich man!
Therefore, the hotel owner immediately took Zhang Tiegen and others to the room very attentively.
The current conditions of people like Zhang Tiegen are definitely a change. They no longer have to live in the small hotel in Badi Town like they did yesterday. Two people have to squeeze into a room. How can they sleep on a bed?
, you still have to decide the outcome through rock-paper-scissors.
Of course, the two of them have never mentioned the final result of the rock-paper-scissors game between Zhang Tiegen and Xie Sha and who won it...
When people like Zhang Tiegen came to this small hotel just now, they were already full of wine and food. Of course, it is impossible to be drunk. In this Muslim country, it is basically a no-alcohol zone. Drinking is
Comfortable criminal activity…
Even locals can rarely buy wine to drink, let alone foreigners like Zhang Tiegen.
Therefore, since Zhang Tiegen came to the United Arab Emirates, all of them have not touched alcohol at all, and have almost embarked on a life of abstaining from alcohol.
Although everyone wanted to drink very much at this time, Zhang Tiegen and the others could only continue to endure the temptation of the drunkard after being asked to keep a low profile.
After sending away the hotel owner, everyone entered their own rooms. The first thing they had to do was to take a good bath and put on the most comfortable and dry clothes.
After all, they have been traveling at the fastest speed in the mountainous area since last night. Not only are their bodies exhausted, but they are also extremely dirty.
Zhang Tiegen took off his white Arab robe and happily rushed into the bathroom. After turning on the shower, he hummed a little tune and started giggling happily.
