Chapter 3 The Desert Boat

Li Lvyan's original intention was to take Jing Qiongshuang to a safe area first, put her in the safe area, take a photo, and then watch her leave. Then he and Wo Gua went to look for black glasses. After all, there are some things in the desert.

The place was still open for tourists to enjoy, but Jing Qiongshuang remained calm about this. After listening to Li Luyi's suggestion, she didn't know whether she agreed or not, but remained silent. This made Li Luyi confused for a moment what she was thinking.

Already.

It was almost early in the morning, and the sun had already exposed most of its face. The three of them arrived at the last station. Sure enough, on the fence next to the station, there was a row of camels, roughly fourteen or five, and there was a two-person camel next to the camel.

A cart with three wheels, it looks like the one used to carry the wounded in old times.

The site is like a water supply station made of bricks like a private house. There is a landline phone and a fax machine inside, and there are buckets of water and bread on the shelves, which are emergency supplies. When you look at the site from a closer look, the cracks in the bricks

The yellow mud on the inner wall is mixed with hay, like aquatic plants in the swamp. When the wind blows, the ends of the hay are stuck with yellow mud and sway in the wind. The roof is covered with oil paper, making a "swishing" sound together. The inner wall

A 40-centimeter long and wide window was opened, allowing one to fall asleep listening to the sound of the wind all year round.

Seeing this window, Li Lvyan thought of the environment he lived in when he was a child.

He has lived in a neighbor's house since he was a child. The neighbor's house is made of bricks and thatch. He sleeps on a small bed in the northwest corner and has a window on the wall. It is fine in the other three seasons, but when spring comes, everything goes wrong.

Resurrected, the mice also revived. The mice whispered when they held meetings at night to incite the masses to parade in the streets. They screamed in pain when they bumped into pillars while carrying food. They couldn't help but make ecstasy sounds while sucking sesame oil. The sounds were heard; not to mention biting them.

The few sweaters he had left, the random display of feces and excretions, and the occasional line up in a row to openly stretch out and scare the neighbors who came to visit - everything was worrying.

Because of this, his neighbor raised a big orange cat. Since then, these things have never invaded his sleep. Because of his great achievements, the cat carries the wind when he walks, and does not hide when he sees people from a distance.

Instead, he glides past you proudly, with an attitude that makes his teeth itch in anger.

Needless to say, Jing Qiongshuang's stunned expression has not changed since the beginning. She obviously didn't expect such a house. Li Lvyan sighed. The conditions are indeed a bit crude, but at a glance, there are yellow beacon deserts on all sides.

, it is quite remarkable that someone can go so deep and purposely build a site that can save people's lives at critical moments.

The truck driver jumped out of the car, and the three of them also got out of the car. Their mission here was over. Jing Qiongshuang went in to negotiate with the non-person in charge of the site about renting camels. But Wo Gua saw a camel for the first time, and his heart was itching.

He came to one of the tallest and fattest camels, touched the camel's hump, poked it, and looked at Li Lvyan in surprise.

"Dung beetle, dung beetle, look, look at how hungry people are in this desert. They have two tumors on their butts. I guess they haven't eaten for at least a minute. It's so pitiful."

There is a kind of hunger, and Jin Yuanbao feels hungry.

Camel: No, I'm not hungry, and it's not a tumor.

Jin Yuanbao: No, you are hungry, you are very hungry, look how thin you are.



"Wogua, that's the hump, the part of the camel used to store fat and water."

Wo Gua smiled "hehe" and smoothed the camel's hair. "So that's it." Then he looked at the camel's face with a shy face. "Do you like to eat small wontons? I can eat ten bowls at a time. Look at you."

Physique, estimate, emmmmm..."

The camel was chewing hay when he suddenly saw a mentally retarded face approaching him. He was startled. He blew out two blasts of hot air from his nostrils. When he saw the huge creature in front of him, his two eyelashes flickered and blinked.

I didn’t even bother to raise my eyelids: My species’ IQ ranks high in the animal kingdom, but I don’t know the IQ ranking of your species among you humans.

Wo Gua obviously didn't notice the camel's contemptuous eyes, and turned to Li Lv Yi, "Dung Beetle, what do you think the camel likes to eat?"

"How do I know?" Jing Qiongshuang just bought a few more buckets of water, which can be hung on the camels. Li Lvyan was carrying the buckets up. Wo Gua didn't help, but kept teasing the camels.

Naturally, Li Green Ant was not angry, but Wo Gua was not ashamed, but rather proud. "Dogs eat shit, but do camels eat shit?"

"Although I don't know what camels like to eat, they certainly don't like to eat shit."

"If you've never eaten shit, of course you don't know how delicious shit is. If you eat it once, you won't be able to put it down."

…………

!!

"Have you ever eaten what you said?"

"I've never eaten it, but dogs often eat shit. Isn't this proven? And most people keep dogs. When you go to the toilet, the dog will secretly run to the toilet to see you. Isn't it because he is afraid that you will eat shit behind his back?

Is it? Nowadays, the flush toilet is so convenient, maybe the dog just thinks that every time the poop disappears after pooping, it is because you ate it after pooping."

"Zhuangzi and Huizi were swimming on Haoliang. Zhuangzi said, 'The fish swims calmly, which is the joy of fish?' Huizi said, 'You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?' Zhuangzi said, 'You are not me, how can you know me?

Don’t you know the joy of fish?’…”

Li Luyi said this in the hope that Jin Yuanbao would stop talking nonsense. There should not be any controversy about whether to eat shit or not. After all, this is not a good topic at all, and there is no need to discuss it in public.

He went to talk, but before Li Lvyan finished speaking, Jin Yuanbao took advantage of every opportunity.

"Huizi said, 'I am not a son, and I cannot—"

"Oh, this Huizi is too stupid. He keeps asking questions without getting the right answer. Let me teach you a trick. Next time Zhuangzi asks if he has these things, just reply to him, 'There is no better son than a father!'"

Zhuangzi said, "You are not me, how do you know that I don't know the joy of fish?"

Huizi said, "No one knows his son better than his father."

????

Li Lvyan took a deep breath, resisting the thought of exploding on the spot, and turned around angrily. He really didn't want to hear another word from Wo Gua. Who knew that his nightmare had already started when he entered Lop Nur.

"I saw it last time."

Li Lvyan paused, "What did you see?"

"Last time you came out of the toilet and burped."

…………

The topic changed so quickly that Li Lvyan didn't know how to deal with Wo Gua's jumping thinking.

The person in charge and Jing Qiongshuang happened to come out of the site at this time. When they heard Jin Yuanbao's words, they both looked at Li Lvyan in horror.

Gua's words just now drew a clear line, "This is my brother. He was kicked in the head by a camel when he tried to save me ten years ago. Don't take his words to heart."

The camel "whispered" and shook its fur and head, easing the awkward atmosphere. Li Green Ant resisted the urge to beat up Wo Gua, who had already stumbled onto the fat camel's legs.

back.

A middle-aged woman followed Jing Qiongshuang, saying something he didn't understand. Li Lvyan didn't quite understand, but then, a dark-skinned young woman came out of the back room. The first time he saw the woman,

Li Luyi and Jin Yuanbao were stunned at the same time.

But I saw the woman's big round eyes, a little cunning in her tranquility, her curved eyebrows, and her palm-sized face full of youthful vitality. She was still young, no more than twenty, but she was looking at several people.

When they faced each other, they showed an expression of disbelief as expected.

"Is it you?!"

The woman clapped her hands and was surprised. The middle-aged woman seemed to have lowered her head and asked her something. The woman told the story truthfully. Although she still couldn't understand what she said, she could still make a general guess.

"Are you going to Lop Nur like this and not looking for a guide?"

"Guide -" the three of them looked at the energetic girl blankly, and the girl smiled sweetly, "It's the second time I met you. Although it wasn't very pleasant last time, it was still a surprise. If you are not a local, you might go in.

If you encounter danger, how about I be your guide?"

…………

The last time I met Zai Jinhe was at the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. That encounter was a bit unpleasant. After all, telling the truth is very offensive. Although Li Lvyan and Jin Yuanbao were beaten with loudspeakers and fled in embarrassment, but

Meeting Zai Jinhe here was indeed an accident.

“Are you actually from Xinjiang?”

Zai Jinhe rode on the camel and smiled sweetly, "Yes, but sometimes we receive tourists from other places who come to Lop Nur. I happened to meet you at Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum that time. What a coincidence."

What a coincidence indeed.

"Come on, charge on -" Facing the desert in the distance, "Dung Beetle, this vast desert has been contracted by this commander. All the fish in the fish ponds and all the camels in the desert are given by me.

A greeting gift for you, Sister Hemiao, go ahead!!!!"

When Wo Gua got on the camel, he put in a lot of effort and kept saying "Come on", but the camel only moved once in half a day.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

The reason why Wo Gua is so excited is because now two female creatures have joined the team, which greatly increases Wo Gua's vitality.

Twenty minutes after leaving the site——

The station was on the edge of the desert, like a small black dot. The four people rode camels and set out for Lop Nur. In the darkness that the four people could not see, danger was quietly following them.

"Shit Beetle, you just said that camels don't like to eat shit, so what do camels like to eat?"

"You've already asked this question."

The sun was shining in the sky, scorching like fire. Although it was morning, it was already very steamy. Li Green Ant took off only a short sleeve, while Wo Gua was shirtless and sat on the camel to brag. Fortunately, he was the tallest among the camels.

The fattest one, otherwise no camel would be able to bear him, and even Cao Chong couldn't weigh an elephant.

"I think cats eat mice. Is it possible for camels to eat mice?" Wo Gua asked and answered himself. Li Luyi was so hot now that he naturally wasn't in the mood to brag with him. He turned a blind eye when he was supposed to cooperate in the performance.

"Cats eat mice because cats lack taurine in their bodies, and mice have it, so cats eat mice just to supplement taurine. Once cats lack taurine for a long time, their night vision will decrease.

Even blindness, eventually manifesting as symptoms of loss of ability to move at night. In addition to mice, there are also fish, and beef also contains taurine." Li Green Ant couldn't listen anymore and stopped Wo Gua's nonsense.

Gua is indeed more proud.

"So I said it at the beginning, just like that stupid koala eats eucalyptus leaves, camels also like to eat cactus. These vegetarian animals, hey - I don't know how camel meat tastes, but generally these have

The only reason why the species is still alive despite having meat is that the meat doesn’t taste good.”



Li Green Ant stroked his forehead, "First, koalas only eat the leaves. It's not delicious, but it can't be eaten by others, so it can only eat the leaves. Second, the leaves are poisonous and other animals won't eat them. This is because others don't eat them."

After I stopped grabbing it, it ate the rest; thirdly, the koala was sluggish for 24 hours, not because it was cute, but because it was poisoned."

Koalas take drugs all day long, which causes the koala's liver to be very strange and can separate toxic substances and water. Newly born koalas cannot digest toxins, so they have to eat their mother's food until they are more than 1 year old, and then take drugs.

Wo Gua said the reason why koalas are stupid is probably because they are often seen motionless like sloths.

"Hey, I really like painting, sister Qiong Shuang. If I hadn't missed the college entrance examination by a few zeros, I would have almost been able to go to Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts. This handsome man is a man that Tsinghua University and Peking University can't get. Qiong Shuang

Sister Shuang, where is the studio where you paint? I will go and discuss with you another day."

Wo Gua was very excited to see a woman, but Li Green Ant didn't understand the reason. After all, spring had passed for too long, and Wo Gua's estrus period didn't know when it would change with the change of seasons.

But when I saw Wo Gua frothing at the mouth and cheating on Jing Qiong Shuang, Jing Qiong Shuang was indeed very well-educated. She had been silently enduring the situation and was respectful and courteous. Li Lvyi admired her very much.

"After the discussion, let's find a place to drink tea and talk about life. Let me tell you, my favorite thing to do is to discuss the philosophy of life——"

I have been chatting tirelessly with sister Qiong Shuang for half an hour. I feel that love requires this kind of perseverance——

"Brother Yuanbao——" Zai Jinhe called out sweetly, interrupting Jin Yuanbao's thoughts. When Jin Yuanbao heard the sound, his bones went numb, and he immediately turned around with a smile like a flower, "Hey, Sister Hemiao."

Love requires the ability to adapt to changes like this.

Zai Jinhe pointed to the sky, "In the desert, you should pay attention to climate changes anytime and anywhere. The clouds started to drift rapidly just now, and the wind is about to blow. I don't know if it will affect our area. To be on the safe side, we'd better find a place first."

Just avoid it."

Li Lvyan and Jing Qiongshuang had already walked to the front. Jin Yuanbao was moved, "Did you stay here specifically to tell me?"

"No, because you didn't listen to what Brother Green Ant just said, so I had to be sent here to say it again."



Originally sunny

The bright sky suddenly changed color, and the clouds floating over from the sky appeared in piles. They had no peace of mind and rushed into the crowds. In a short while, they turned into several large lumps of red brushed marshmallows.

Jin Yuanbao rode a camel and kept bumping, and finally arrived at the safe haven that Li Lvyan and the others had found. After all, this place was not too far away from the populated area. In order to successfully avoid this disaster, Zai Jinhe was familiar with the local terrain.

Find a hill that has been piled up for a long time, let the three camels lie down on the exposed part of the hill, form a flesh wall, and tie them all together with ropes. This is also to prevent them from being destroyed once a storm hits.

If a camel is frightened and runs away, it will not affect other camels running away together.

But this left a doubt: Although this idea sounds very far-sighted, just like Cao Cao's 400,000 navy ships preparing to attack Soochow, did the person who first invented this method consider that his father was bald?

, the principle of coaxing a group of cowards, if the camels are tied together and there is no time to escape, isn't this the case of forming a group to give someone a head?

The mound is in the shape of a semi-encircled structure, like a shapeless chicken coop. It is not large in scope. The space in the middle can only accommodate seven or eight people squatting. There is only a little cover on the top, and the left and right sides and front are well covered.

Fortunately, it seems that the wind and sand are blowing according to the routine. They will only attack from the front and not from all sides. Otherwise, the four of them will be doomed and become skewers in the meat buns.

Wo Gua came here reluctantly. As soon as he arrived at this haven that had been regulated, he wiped his sweat. Zai Jinhe led his camel and buckled it with the other camels, but Jing Qiongshuang was there.

At this time, he took the initiative to speak, with a hint of questioning in his words.

"Why did you come so slowly? Storms in the desert are not fun. If you are blown away by the wind, then you will never come back!"

Jin Yuanbao was stunned for a moment when he was questioned. Looking at this woman who had always been gentle and elegant, but became extremely serious in the face of disaster, he felt shocked in his heart: Sure enough, a woman can fall out of favor faster than turning the page of a book. Her face became like that of an opera singer, which was scary.

Damn it, "Should speed be determined by the number of legs? Then a camel has four legs, and it can't run as fast as an ostrich. Crabs have so many claws, but they don't walk sideways? Neither do I.

Look at it going up to the sky, but everything you can see is going to the pot."

What Wo Gua meant was that this was a difference in species selection. Although he also had four legs, the horse he was riding was not a good running horse, so naturally he could not get here in a short time. Jing Qiongshuang's accusation was incomprehensible.

Jing Qiongshuang was stunned by Wo Gua's scoundrel appearance. Li Lv Yan saw it and quickly smoothed things over, "Wo Gua Wo Gua, please stop saying a few words. It's you who are slow. Miss Jing is also worried about you. If you really

Whatever happened, in the end we all still need to help you."

Jin Yuanbao sat down with a chirping mouth: "This Jing Qiong Shuang is a bit strange. Once entering the desert, it feels like eating gunpowder. He is so anxious that he seems to be desperately thinking of somewhere to go. Instead, it is Zai Jinhe——

She looked at Sister Hemiao with a smile: Sister Hemiao is better. Although last time the beetle checked her pulse with a thread and found out that she had a gynecological disease in public, and when she met her old friend in a foreign land, Sister Hemiao was not even angry. Hey, the difference between women is so

Is it that big?

The storm was coming as soon as it came, and an overwhelming sense of violence came from a distance. The whimpering sound of "Woo---" was like a black monster hiding in the desert, baring its teeth and claws. The tension just now was not insignificant.

After the fiery clouds rolled over the sky, the storm really came.

"Huhu——"

The whimpering feeling in the air is like an airtight wall without wind. There is also the continuous momentum of "the north wind blows the white grass on the ground and the snow is flying in August", which makes people breathless.

When the four camels formed a wind wall, they had already blocked the incoming wind. The four camels were obviously very scared. They leaned closely together and put their heads on the buttocks of the camel in front of them, smelling.

In the face of disaster, a little fart smell is obviously more sweet than being beaten by a tornado.

Wo Gua was still in high spirits just now. When the "woo woo" storm rolled up thousands of piles of wild sand and rushed towards him, he couldn't help but bury his head in the sand. It seemed that hope was like a radish, taking root in this land.

, not to be pulled away easily, but the sand covered him so hard that he couldn't even understand how the ostrich's respiratory system works when they bury their heads in the sand.

The snowflakes in Yanshan Mountain are as big as a mat, and they blow down Xuanyuan Terrace.

Countless storms blew in my ears, like needles pricking me. It would be a lie to say that I was not afraid. Li Green Ant also hugged Wo Gua tightly. After all, here alone, the tonnage of Wo Gua is the most reassuring. If the nest is

He was not reassuring, and they deserved to be blown away. But what made him confused at this moment was Jing Qiongshuang. She had been wearing dark goggles and could not see the upper part of her face clearly, but she closed her eyes tightly

Her lips still showed her inner tension.

Jing Qiongshuang hugged Li Lvyan's arm tightly, as if it was a life-saving straw.

People subconsciously choose what they subconsciously think is the safest thing as their only support. Li Lvyan just glanced at it from the corner of his eye, but didn't think too much about Jing Qiongshuang's action. Zai Jinhe

It seems that she grew up in the desert and has become accustomed to it. She leaned on the hilltop facing the wind with a solemn expression and said nothing. In this case, every time she spoke, she was like a mouthful of sand, and Li Green Ant didn't even think about it.

When I speak, I feel that my mouth, eyes and nose are already filled with it. This is not a romantic drama.

You are my heart, you are my liver, you are my baby bump, this is the desert sand that will blind your face as soon as you open your mouth.

Love is like a blue sky with white clouds, a clear sky, a sudden storm, no place to hide, unexpected, and so unreasonable.

Li Green Ant now understands why the camel has two layers of eyelashes. It is not only because it highlights its cute big eyes, making its big eyes bright and twinkling, and its eyelashes are curled and fascinating, but because it is so damn wind-resistant.

ah.

The ability to withstand stress is very important, and the ability to withstand fighting is also very important. Camels have been walking in the desert for most of their lives in the development of human civilization and society. It seems that they have already realized this profound truth and have paid the price long ago.

All in practice.

Desert sand, damn, I knew this eye would have two layers.

The whining sound in his ears lasted for ten minutes from far to near, and finally ended with heavy thunder and small raindrops. Li Green Ant opened his closed eyes, pulled his head out of the sand, and shook his head.

Looking around, I saw that the few hills that were uneven just now have been filled with sand brought back by the tornado. In order to repay the kindness of the tornado, writing a thank you letter is the best way to express my gratitude.
