When the Huang family in Fang County was panicking, classmate Le dug up plants adapted to semi-desert and desert environments in the Namib Desert and gravel plains, including succulents and poisonous Euphorbiaceae plants, and extracted many raw materials for making poisons.
I was busy until the evening and made a camp at the foot of a rocky mountain. I found a lot of dry firewood to make a fire. I roasted the clay eggs wrapped in rock rabbits over the fire. Then I took out the snakes I caught and killed them. The snake blood and gallbladder were put into glass bottles.
The snake's head was buried deep in the sand, the snake skin was left in a large glass bottle to soak in potion, and the snake oil was boiled in a stainless steel pot.
A total of ten venomous snakes were caught and all were killed for oil refining.
After keeping the oil boiling for a certain period of time, stir up the fire and sand, bury the mud eggs in them and stew them, and then keep the fire boiling the oil while waiting for food.
Before she had time to dig out the eggs, Le Yun heard a very subtle "rustling" sound, took out a headlamp and put it on, took out a pair of fire tongs, dug a hole in the sand, and pulled out a large and long glass bottle.
Put it in a sand pit and surround it with sand so that it can stand firmly and not fall over.
After more than ten minutes, the thing that made the slight noise revealed its true appearance: five or six centipedes were crawling over from between a few stones at the foot of the rocky mountain. The leading centipede was about twenty centimeters long, darker in color, and there were more centipedes at the back.
Some of them are slightly shorter, and the last few are small centipedes, which seem to have just changed their skin not long ago. They are very tender and translucent in shape.
Centipedes and snakes are mortal enemies, and they came running after smelling the smell.
When all the centipedes in a row crawled out of the pile of rocks, there were seven centipedes in total, one long, three long and three short. They were lined up in a row, and the movement of their densely packed feet made people's scalp numb. It was also enough to scare people with trypophobia to death.
The centipede crawled along the sand to the place where the snake's entrails were buried. It crawled across the sand and made a slight noise as it moved.
Le Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, took out the fire pliers and quickly took action, clamped the body of the leading centipede with the pliers, picked it up and threw it into the glass bottle. The centipede was caught in the pliers, and its arthropod-shaped body curled up around the pliers and tried to bite the pliers but failed.
Not moving, constantly twisting and struggling.
Le Yun put the pliers on the mouth of the bottle and gently scraped it, scraping off the centipede's body from the tongs. Then she released the pliers and let it fall into the glass bottle. The centipede landed on the bottom of the bottle and still wanted to climb up. The glass bottle split
It's slippery, there's nowhere to climb, it's impossible to climb up, and it's spinning around inside.
Drop one and catch the second one.
The leading centipede was captured by humans. The other centipedes didn't know it and were still crawling towards the target. It was easy to catch them. Use tongs to pick them up one by one and throw them into the bottle to reunite their whole family. The centipedes were messing around in the bottle.
jump up.
Centipedes are also good medicinal materials and can be used to make poisons and medicines.
After catching a centipede, one of the seven poisonous insects, Le Yun took out a bottle of potion and poured it into a glass bottle to bathe the centipede. After soaking it for more than ten minutes, she used tweezers to pick up the centipede and set it next to a fire to roast it to death. Then she put it in a clean bottle and sealed it.
Throw it back into space and continue to cook the oil.
In order to prevent other little creatures from spitting or peeing in the pot, she could not leave. She waited until eleven o'clock to sprinkle a circle of medicinal powder around her before meditating. A pot of snake meat was boiled until four o'clock in the middle of the night. Finally, it was boiled into oil and collected.
It actually only comes out as a small bottle.
The smell of the snake oil in the pot was very strong. Leyun burned it with fire, sanded it with hot sand several times, brushed it with soil several times, boiled the soil again, and finally boiled the plants to remove the smell. It took many times to get rid of the smell.
Fishy smell.
As for herself, she also took several baths to remove the smell of snakes on her body and deal with the venomous snakes she caught. She also decided to change places and wait for dawn to walk another seven or eight miles to contact the helicopter and let them come.
catch.
The three people in charge of the helicopter received the Chinese girl's satellite phone call and contacted the designated point to pick the girl up on the plane and go to Opuwo, the largest city in the northwest region.
Opuwo is the capital of a large region in northwest Namibia. It has an airport. Because of its sparse population, it is actually equivalent to a town and its infrastructure is relatively old. Opuwo is also the place with the largest number of Himba people in Namibia.
The Himba people are also called the Red Clay People. Their nation still retains the most primitive life. Men and women do not wear clothes and only use cloth or animal cloth to cover their shame. Women like to mix red mud and butter into paint and apply it on their bodies and hair, so they are called
Red clay man.
It is not convenient to park a helicopter in the urban area, so the helicopter was parked at the airport. The drivers took a rest at the airport, and Le Yun happily took a taxi from the airport to the city streets for shopping.
There are red clay people in the city of Opuwo, and many Himba people close to the town have slowly accepted modern civilization. Men and women go to work, and some women also wear clothes and engage in various jobs.
Most of the city's large buildings were built in the colonial era and are of European style. Modern architecture has mixed elements of African and European styles.
Opuwo is a place where many ethnic groups live with different cultures and customs, but it is also a diverse and inclusive place. Each ethnic group maintains its own characteristics and gets along harmoniously with other ethnic groups.
Appreciate the unique charm of the scenery on the street, carry the camera and click everywhere to take pictures, taking pictures of what interests you, not specifically to pursue the red clay figures.
While taking pictures, I went to look for shops and street stalls with special handicrafts, looking for ebony carvings and pottery. Unfortunately, all I saw were lifeless items. I went to a hotel for dinner at noon, walked around again, and took a taxi back to the airport.
Take a helicopter to the beach.
On the way back to the Gulf of Fria, we took a detour to the rocky mountain where the Himba people collect red mud. Classmate Le went to study the stones, quietly carried a few stones back to space, and also picked up one and took it on the plane.
It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon when the helicopter returned to Fria Bay. The plane parked in the desolate gravel garden backyard behind a hotel. The pilots lived in the hotel, so of course the plane also parked in the hotel grounds.
The drivers invited the little guests to drink coffee at the hotel. Little Le opened his mobile phone and called the handsome guy Milo and asked where he was. After making the call, he waited at the hotel.
Milo was in another hotel. He received a call from a child and drove quickly to pick him up. He found the hotel where the child's pilots were staying and saw the child standing at the door with a luggage bag on his back. He quickly drove over and picked him up.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Little Lele, you also ran all over the desert, why can't you get a tan?" The child stayed in the desert for a few days, and his skin was still smooth and pink.
Being tanned makes people jealous.
"I have good recovery ability. I tanned during the day and turned white again one night." Le Yun smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes: "Miro, if I can't find a hotel to stay in tonight, I will steal your guest room."
"If there is no guest room, you don't have to fight for it. I will carry a sleeping bag to sleep in the yard." Milo turned the car around and took the children back to the hotel where he was staying.
Fria Bay is a small town. In the blink of an eye, I arrived at the hotel where Milo stayed, booked a room, and checked in. It also had two guest rooms. Mr. Le booked one room and had room to spare, like the helicopter pilot’s room before.
The hotel is fully booked because of its advantageous location.
The hotel rooms are very clean, and there is green space outside the window with succulents and salad grass.
Putting the luggage in the guest room, Le Yun put on the small backpack that never left her body and went to the beach with the handsome boy Milo. Milo had nothing to do, he had already walked around the area, knew the way, and ran away with the children.
The place is small, and there are no particularly meaningful scenic spots. Therefore, in fact, the bay is not well-known at all. Because it is the first necessary place to enter the coastal road from the inland, it has been developed into an intermediate stop for supplies or rest.
Gradually it became prosperous.
It was still early, so Milo took the children to drive more than ten kilometers to the sandy plain near the hilly mountains to see Welwitschia and succulents.
Welwitwitschia grows entirely in the desert, and there are semi-desert dunes far away. Where there are no other plants, there are only clusters of Welwitwitschia, which makes people even more moved by the miracle of life.
No one else was present, and Xiao Le happily studied the Welwitschia, grabbing the sand with seeds from under their mother plants and then quietly hiding them back in the space.
Milo ran to the rocky mountain to catch a rabbit and looked at the children eagerly, begging for something delicious.
The little loli couldn't resist the pitiful offensive of the handsome guy with blue eyes, and directed the handsome guy to collect dry firewood. She went to dig for plants and found some weeds and broad leaves of plants. The two of them dug some soil and then went to the beach. The handsome guy Milo dug.
In the mud at the seaside, the little Loli killed and cleaned the rabbit, stuffed some medicinal herbs and plants into the rabbit's belly, pasted a cactus on the outside, wrapped it with wild grass and then wrapped it with a layer of leaves, and then dug out the sea mud and the desert plains.
The sand and mud were synthesized into mud cakes, and the rock rabbit wrapped in grass leaves was rolled into a mud egg, then wrapped with a layer of grass on the outside, and then returned to the hotel with the result.
After returning to the hotel, the handsome guy Milo communicated with the hotel staff and said that he wanted to have a bonfire on the sand next to the hotel to roast shells and eat them. After getting permission, he went to the car to carry the firewood to a place with plants and sand to make a fire, and put the mud dumplings next to the fire.
Bake it first, then bake some shells you picked up over the fire.
When the fire heated up the sand, the little Lolita and the handsome guy Milo moved the fire, buried the dried mud eggs in the sand, continued to light the fire, and grilled the shells to eat.
Someone was burning a bonfire. Many tourists thought that a tour group was having a bonfire party, so they ran to watch out of curiosity, and then they got to know each other. Everyone chatted all over the place, and it became more and more lively. Finally, those staying in the hotel had just finished their meal.
Tourists who were visiting or who had just returned all ran to join in the fun. Even the hotel waiters were curious and came to join in the fun when they had time.
The little Lolita and the handsome guy Milo were very hospitable. A guest went to the hotel to buy wine and had a barbecue with the wine. This was a big deal. After eating the shells, he felt that it was not enough, so he bought some chicken and mutton from the hotel to continue grilling. The hotel waiter also
Give us some seasonings to help people eat barbecue in a different way.
Planting flowers without intention will make them bloom, but willows will become cute without intention. Milo and the children just want to burn a rabbit, but the result is great, it really turns into a bonfire barbecue party.
The tourists had finished having fun. The first few people who ran to join in the fun knew that there was something baking in the sand and refused to leave, waiting to find out.
When the time was almost up, Le Xiaololi opened the fire and pulled out the hard mud eggs. Handsome Milo put out the fire embers with sand and poured some water to prevent the strong wind from blowing sparks and causing a safety accident.
After the clay balls had cooled down and the adhering sand and fire ashes had been removed, Milo ran to the hotel and brought a basin of clay balls into the restaurant. He ordered Nagoya's own wine, seafood and vegetables, and then asked the waiter to bring a few on a large plate.
Use small plates and knives to share delicious food with the children.
The little loli smashed the mud shell with a knife, letting the fragrance make her drool. Then she peeled off the mud shell, picked away the grass and leaves, put the cactus piece by piece into several small plates, and finally moved the rock rabbit to the big plate.
She cut it into pieces, then divided it into plates, and divided it into nine portions. Six portions were given to the tourists who never left to taste, and a rabbit leg was given to the hotel waiters. She and Miró each had a portion.
There is a piece of cactus on each small plate, rabbit meat with cactus, the color is attractive, and the aroma is even more attractive. The six guests who got a piece of barbecue happily placed their portions in front of themselves, and asked the waiters to serve wine, bread and
Table knife.
Milo was very happy to get a leg of rabbit meat and rabbit head. He couldn't bear to part with the oil in the mud shell. He poured it on his plate and immediately cut the meat into pieces with a knife. He ate the delicious food with red wine. Eat some and spread it with bread.
Eat it with oil dip.
Le Xiao's classmate managed to eat delicious food by himself. He didn't leave rabbit meat for himself. He only gave himself a piece of cactus and plant roots and ate hotel meals.
The six guests who got the delicious food imitated Milo's eating method and ate with gusto. Finally, they ate the bread with all the oil stains on it. The words of praise were like the water in the Grand Canyon of East Africa, flowing incessantly.
Several waiters took the delicacies given by the guests to the kitchen, each got a piece, and took turns to eat. When they looked back, they saw the handsome European boy and the oriental girl, their eyes were particularly hot, and their smiles were particularly sunny and gentle.
After the six guests finished eating rock rabbit meat, they ordered Bailan's wine and went to sit in the lobby. They waited for the young man and the oriental girl to come out and invite them to drink after the meal. They talked freely about everything, and nudged the two young men to leave their addresses and e-mails.
Contact and invite two young friends to visit them when they travel to their country.
The eight of them talked about how they went to rest at 10:30 in the evening. In fact, the six travelers still wanted to chat with the girl and chat about the world. They heard that she went hiking in the desert a few days ago, and they also knew that hiking in the desert has its benefits.
It was so difficult, so he reluctantly let the girl go and rest.
Considering safety, classmate Le slept honestly on the hotel bed that night, had a good sleep, got up before dawn, packed up, went to watch the sunrise with the handsome Milo, then returned to the hotel, had a simple breakfast, and checked out
, go to another hotel to take a helicopter to the next location.
The off-road vehicle that Milo rented was left at the hotel, and the key was handed over to the hotel bellboy to hand it over to the travel agency that came to receive the vehicle.
The helicopter took the little Chinese girl to the desert area in the south. It flew slowly all the way, stopping at Brand Mountain, the highest peak in Namibia, and the area known as the "Skeleton Sea". It didn't arrive at Namibia on the coastline of Walvis Bay until one o'clock in the afternoon.
Swakopmund is the second largest city.
The urban architecture of Swakopmund is European style, not far from the desert park with the famous Sand Dune 45 and Death Valley.
The helicopter stopped near the Linhai Luxury Hotel. After landing, we booked a room and had a delicious late lunch. Milo rented a car and took the children to see seals and flamingos.
