The iron pot was brought by Lao Zhang, and the water used to cook the broth was bottled water. After walking for two or three days, this was the first hot meal.
The air-dried beef cooked in the soup is a big bowl per person. The roasted naan is too dry to bite, but it is just right when soaked in the hot broth, which is convenient and delicious.
I was eating my meal while blowing the hot air, and suddenly I heard: "Water...water."
"Ya Zai!" I quickly picked up a bottle of water and ran over.
"How are you, Yazai?" I opened the water and handed it to his mouth.
Dou Sprout drank more than half of the bottle, raised his eyebrows and said, "It hurts me to death. That hit me badly."
"Haha, it seems you know everything, then it should be fine," then Zhao Xuanxuan came over with a bowl of broth.
"Drink some hot soup, Yazai. I'll make half a roasted naan for you."
"Thank you, Miss Zhao," Dou Sprout took it with a smile.
After eating and drinking, it was customary to leave two or three people to watch the night. Before anyone could say anything, Aza said first: "Everyone, thank you very much for taking me in. Leave the night watch to me. I used to sleep during the day.
"Yeah," he pointed at his eyes and joked: "My eyes are so bright at night that I can even see a mouse running past."
"You don't have to watch the whole night alone," Qin Xingping said: "We will change shifts. I will do the first half of the night, you the second half of the night, and everyone else will have a rest."
No one said anything this time. After stepping in the sand for a day, sleepiness set in and everyone got back into their tents to sleep early.
I slept until after one o'clock in the evening, and I got up to take a nap. When I came out, I saw Aza with his back to me, tinkering with his backpack.
"What are you doing, Aza?" I walked over and said.
He was startled by me, quickly pulled up his backpack and turned around and said, "I just changed shifts with Brother Qin. It's okay. I'm thirsty. I remember I still have half a bottle of water in my bag."
"Are you sleepy? If you are sleepy, you go and rest, I will take your place." I said a polite word.
"No," he waved his hand and said, "I've slept enough during the day and can't sleep at night. You should go back and rest as soon as possible. We have to travel tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm going to sleep then," I said casually after peeing and went back to sleep.
A night of silence.
When it got light the next day, I was woken up by the guide Lao Zhang outside who was shouting something very loudly.
After pocketing my pants, I rubbed my eyes and got out and asked, "What's wrong, Uncle Zhang? Why are you making such a fuss so early in the morning?"
After saying that, I noticed that not only Lao Zhang, but also Lao Qin and his head were livid and looked very ugly.
I turned around and looked around and noticed something was wrong.
