On that day, Suning made a large pot of mutton soup and grilled a lot of skewers. Together with the grilled naan brought from Urumqi and the Erguotou brought from Beijing, the five of them really enjoyed a delicious meal in the world.
Even An Liman's mouth was full of oil after eating, and he finally rubbed his belly and complained, "You are not here for adventure at all, you are here for enjoyment."
"Uncle Anliman, there's no need for us to ride a camel in the sun when we go to the desert, right?"
"Hmph! You can't experience the real desert life like this."
After An Liman said this, he saw that it was already very late, so he ran to the desert RV and went to sleep. He only took two bottles of Erguotou before leaving.
"Hey! Why do I look down on people like An Liman so much? Isn't this just taking advantage of him and acting like a good boy?" Wang Kaixuan complained angrily as he looked at An Liman's back as he returned to the RV.
"Fat man, An Liman is over sixty years old, we still have to respect him a little bit." Looking at Fatty Wang, who always looked at An Liman with displeasure, Suning couldn't help but remind him, "Maybe one day we will really have to rely on each other.
He’s saving lives!”
"Huh? Is this the old man?" Fatty Wang obviously looked down on An Liman.
"Fat man, the name Anliman in Uighur means the city of living map in the desert. This shows that he has a very detailed understanding of the Taklimakan Desert. If we want to find the ancient city of Jingjue safely along the way, we really have to rely on him.
.”
"Fat man, what Suning said makes sense. The four of us must rely on Uncle An Liman for our expedition." Hu Bayi on the side also tried to persuade the irritable Fatty Wang.
"Forget it! I can't defeat you, so I'll hide away." Wang Kaixuan had obviously eaten too much, so he wanted to run to the side for convenience.
Wang Kaixuan ran to a place far away from the RV. As soon as he took off his pants and squatted down, he felt something bit his butt, "Ah!"
After the severe pain, Wang Kaixuan turned around and looked around, and found that there were dense scorpions under his buttocks. The red scorpions made Wang Kaixuan feel his scalp numb, "Ah? Hu Bayi, Suning, help me quickly!"
In fact, Wang Kaixuan's first scream was heard by Suning and Hu Bayi, and the subsequent cry for help put everyone on guard.
"Lao Hu, Yingzi, give you guns." Suning immediately gave Hu Bayi and Yingzi each an AK47, and then went in the direction where Wang Kaixuan called for help.
At this time, Wang Kaixuan, who was holding up his pants, was staggering towards the three people. As soon as he saw the three armed people, he shouted in fear, "Suning, Lao Hu, Scorpions! Lots and lots of scorpions!"
"I'll go! There are so many scorpions." Suning and the other three looked behind Wang Kaixuan in shock, feeling like their trypophobia was about to break out.
"Bang bang bang..."
Hu Bayi and Yingzi immediately fired at the group of scorpions behind Wang Kaixuan, but Suning turned back to the RV, which surprised Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. This was not in line with their understanding of Suning.
"Suning, are you running away now? You're so ungrateful!" Wang Kaixuan looked at Suning who was "running away" with a resentful expression on his face.
An Liman heard the noise outside and hurried out to check the situation. He was also shocked by the dense fire-red sand scorpions, "Oh my God! What did you provoke?"
Suning ignored the shocked An Liman, went directly to the storage room of the RV, took out the former 93-style flamethrower, and then returned to the scene to spray fierce flames at the dense swarm of scorpions.
Soon the air was filled with the smell of roasted scorpions. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were surprised when they saw Suning's amazing fighting power, "Suning, you are so awesome!"
In fact, shooting the scorpion swarm with a rifle does not cause much damage to the scorpions, and is often a futile effort. However, the flamethrower used by Suning is completely different, and it is really a disaster for the scorpion swarm.
Soon Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Yingzi all stopped shooting and stopped to admire Suning's violent aesthetics and breathe in the wonderful aroma of roasted scorpions in the air.
After the four of them got rid of the scorpion crisis, they all couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. When they returned to their desert RV again, they saw An Liman taking out a jar of homemade ointment and handing it to Wang Kaixuan.
"Deputy leader, have you been bitten by a sand scorpion? Apply this plaster and you'll be fine."
Wang Kaixuan took the plaster in surprise, thinking that he had been targeting An Liman, and then lowered his head with some shame and said, "Uncle An Liman, thank you."
"It's okay! We are all friends!"
Seeing that Wang Kaixuan and An Liman had begun to reconcile, Suning and Hu Bayi felt very relieved, and then they had to leave the matter of helping Wang Kaixuan apply medicine on his butt to Wang Kaixuan's good friend Hu Bayi.
"Fat man, I say you're too small." Looking at Wang Kaixuan, who kept moaning comfortably after being applied with ointment by Hu Bayi, Suning couldn't help but feel like he couldn't help but smile, "You go and pull it in Yerengou
Shit, you were chased by a wild boar, but luckily Yingzi and the others saved you. This time we came to the Taklimakan Desert, and you encountered a group of scorpions again. Fatty, is your butt poisonous?"
"Hey! I can't figure it out too!" Wang Kaixuan said with the same wry smile.
"Crack!"
"ah!"
After Hu Bayi applied the ointment to Wang Kaixuan, he slapped the fat man's butt hard, and then said angrily, "We are all tired today, everyone should take a rest!"
Encountering such a great danger on the first day in the Taklimakan Desert was something Suning had never thought of. She once again faced up to this treasure hunting adventure.
...
After everyone got up the next morning, they had a simple breakfast, and then, under An Liman's careful identification and guidance, they set off again and headed south.
At the same time, the archaeological team of Shirley Yang and Professor Chen also came to Urumqi. Because they caused too much trouble in the Kunlun Glacier, the local archaeological department in Xinjiang had to come forward and personally recommend an experienced leader to them.
.
The team leader was a middle-aged man with a beard. Looking at the old and small archaeological team, he couldn't help but feel shocked. "Professor Chen, are you sure that all the members of your archaeological team have this kind of quality?"
"
"Comrade Zhou, is there something wrong?"
"Professor Chen, I finally know why you suffered heavy losses in the Kunlun Glacier. Your archaeological team has no qualifications for adventure." Leader Zhou looked at the archaeological team in front of him with some disappointment.
"Leader Zhou, what happened at Kunlun Glacier is something that no one wants to see. I hope you can respect the deceased." Shirley Yang looked angrily at Team Leader Zhou in front of her.
"Are you Ms. Yang, the sponsor of the archaeological team?" Team leader Zhou looked at Shirley Yang in front of him with disdain.
"That's right! It's me."
"I think you have never respected them. Since your archaeological team has decided to let me be the team leader, please shut up in the future!" Team Leader Zhou suddenly looked at the self-righteous woman with a cold look on his face and reminded her bluntly.
, "If anyone in your archaeological team can't accept it, you can drive me away now."
"Ah?" Shirley Yang's face suddenly turned livid, and Professor Chen and others also looked at Team Leader Zhou in shock.
"Professor Chen, are you willing to let me be the leader of your archaeological team?" Ignoring everyone's surprise, Team Leader Zhou looked at Professor Chen seriously.
"I......"
"Leader Zhou, I, Hao Aiguo, support you." Hao Aiguo on the side suddenly said first, and then explained seriously, "We people have no desert survival experience at all, we are just intellectuals who have read a few more books, so in the future
It will be up to you, Team Leader Zhou, for a few days."
"Leader Zhou, Ai Guo is right, we will rely on you from now on." Professor Chen also said with a look of shame.
"Okay! From now on, you must obey my command. Any actions must be reported to me in advance. You must forget your previous hygiene habits and cannot waste a drop of water in the desert."
"Ah? Then we can't wash our faces and hands too?" Ye Yixin couldn't help but question.
"In the desert, water is for drinking and saving lives, not for personal hygiene." Looking at the beautiful Ye Yixin in front of him, Team Leader Zhou showed no pity for her, "If you can't stand it, you can leave the archaeological team now.
"
"Ah?" Ye Yixin couldn't help crying when she saw the domineering leader Zhou.
"Professor Chen, is this the garbage you brought? I think you all went to the Taklimakan Desert to die!" Listening to Ye Yixin's cries, Team Leader Zhou looked at Professor Chen in disgust.
"Xiao Zhou, we are going for archeology, how can you say we are going to die?" Seeing Team Leader Zhou being so "excessive", Professor Chen argued with a wry smile.
"Hmph! With all your weak looks, do you deserve to be said to be going to archeology?" Looking at the stubborn Professor Chen, Team Leader Zhou said with great disdain, "Professor Chen, you claim to have studied the culture of the Western Regions for many years, but you haven't even done that before.
You don’t understand the most basic knowledge of desert survival, and I don’t know what you have been studying for these decades?”
"..."
Seeing that what Team Leader Zhou said was very harsh, but every word of it made sense, Hao Aiguo was really frightened by the willful Shirley Yang, and he didn't want to lose the experienced Team Leader Zhou so easily, and then replaced him with a smile on his face.
Professor Chen came to the rescue, "Leader Zhou, just because we don't know anything, we have to rely on you. We will cause you trouble in the future."
"Well, now everyone splits up to buy supplies, and bring plenty of water, food, and necessary medicines." Anyway, having vented his disdain, Team Leader Zhou did not continue to be rude, and then began to give instructions to the six people.
, "Ms. Yang, since you are so rich, just go to the livestock trading market and buy twenty to thirty camels directly."
"Ah? Why did you buy so many?" Shirley Yang looked at Team Leader Zhou in surprise, feeling that there was no need to buy so many camels.
"You just need to follow what I tell you. I don't have to explain it to you."
"..."
Seeing such a domineering leader Zhou, Shirley Yang found it really difficult to adapt, but for her own trip to the ancient city, she could only endure it temporarily.
Shirley Yang also thought about getting rid of Team Leader Zhou, but Team Leader Zhou was the team leader designated by the archaeological department in Xinjiang, and he did not give Shirley Yang and Professor Chen the right to refuse.
At this time, Shirley Yang had completely forgotten about Suning, Hu Bayi and others. After all, they were just passers-by who had been dating for a few days, so there was no need for her to spend too much time thinking about them.
...
Because of the encounter with the sand scorpion on the first day, An Liman took out his treasured homemade plaster, and Wang Kaixuan, who had always had a bad temper, accepted An Liman. The five of them got along more and more harmoniously in the next few days.
.
The RV traveled for a while early in the morning, and then had to stop, because An Liman needed to get out of the car to carefully identify the path and direction. An Liman raised his head and looked at the morning glow in the sky, and suddenly his face changed dramatically.
An Liman immediately turned around and returned to the RV, took out his special carpet, threw himself directly into the desert, and prayed to God in the distance.
"Suning, what's wrong with An Liman?" Seeing An Liman chattering in confusion, Wang Kaixuan looked at Suning and Hu Bayi in surprise.
"Fat man, Lao Hu, we may have encountered some trouble." Seeing An Liman's abnormal performance, Suning remembered the black sandstorm in the original drama, and then nervously explained to everyone, "Everyone, hurry up and get ready.
Be prepared, we may need to run for our lives."
"Ah? You can't be so awesome!"
"Manpower is sometimes really insignificant in front of nature. We have to respect nature." Suning shook his head with a wry smile.
The result was not beyond Suning's expectation. Soon An Liman turned around and ran back to the RV, shouting in horror as he ran, "Run! Hyacinthus is here!"
As soon as An Liman boarded the desert RV, Suning closed the door of the RV, then started the RV and ran south without saying a word, "Uncle An Liman, come ahead and lead me."
"Lead the way? Just run forward!"
At this time, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Yingzi were also infected by Suning and An Liman's nervousness. Looking out through the transparent glass of the RV, the wind and sand outside were getting bigger and bigger.
The five people drove the desert RV and fled for their lives in a panic. Soon Suning became a little overwhelmed because the visibility was too low at this time. "Uncle An Liman, now is the time for you to play a key role."
"Huh? I don't have any good ideas now!"
Suning looked ahead carefully while driving, and suddenly saw the figure of a white camel not far away, and then turned to look at An Liman in surprise, "Uncle An Liman, do you think there is a wild camel there?
"
"Ah? White camel?" An Liman followed the direction pointed by Suning and saw a white figure, "Quick! Follow the direction of the white camel."
Without An Liman's instructions, Suning followed the direction of the white camel. Soon the white camel suddenly disappeared from the sight of Suning and An Liman. Suning knew that this was the arrival of the ruins sheltered from the wind.
"Everyone, get out of the car quickly. We have arrived at a ruins." Suning stopped the car and said loudly to everyone.
In fact, hiding in a desert RV can be temporarily safe, but we don't know how long this black sandstorm will last. The five of us can only find a ruins to hide from the wind and sand to be safer.
Wearing goggles and gauze scarves, the five Sunings walked directly into the ruins with food and luggage, and then began to avoid the black sandstorm.
