Cheng Luo didn't know what Zhou Qiang was thinking. She fell asleep in a daze against Tianmiao's sleeping bag.
...
One night passed.
The coldest time in the desert is almost dawn, and I feel like sleeping in the snow and ice. Que Qiu opened his eyes and pulled the sleeping bag, and almost got confused by the sand leaking from the sleeping bag. He sat up and found that it should have become brighter.
The sky has not changed at all, and it is still like late at night. The cold wind is crying, and the camels crowded together are also restless. Que Qiu opened the water bag and drank water. He went outside and came back to find that Professor Wu had already gotten up and sat down.
Brush your teeth on a stool outside.
"Professor Wu." Que Qiu nodded and greeted.
Professor Wu's face looked much better than yesterday. He waved his hand at him, rinsed his mouth and said, "Thank you for your hard work, guide."
After the two talked for a few words, the team members came out of the tent one after another. After washing up, they ate some biscuits and were ready to set off. But everyone hesitated to ask Que Qiu: "Why does it seem that it is still not dawn?"
It is already 7:30 now, and the sky should not be as dark as it is now.
"Black sandstorm, I guess it will come in two days. Today, I guess I won't reach the target point. We can only go to the ancient city of Oasis to avoid the black sandstorm before we can walk through the shoal of Hull to the imperial city, and we have to go around a lot."
Zhou Qiang asked anxiously: "Why? In a few days, it doesn't mean that the weather will be worse, our speed will slow down again, and there are not enough supplies." Other assistants also protested and asked why they had to stay.
Que Qiu still explained lightly: "Because I can't get there today, I originally planned to pass the black dead today, and no machine or compass there can be used, so I can only distinguish the direction by relying on my eyes. The black sand storm covers the clouds and the sun is as if it is not there.
On the night of the stars and moon, there is no way to tell the direction. When the black sandstorm comes, everyone will die. Now we have to find a shelter first. Moreover, because there are not enough supplies, we need to go to the oasis to replenish supplies. Have you forgotten that we have so many of us
Everyone is using Miss Tianmiao’s water alone. Do you really think Miss Tianmiao’s water can support all of us to reach our destination?"
At the end of his speech, Que Qiu's tone became a little sarcastic.
Zhou Qiang's face suddenly turned red. Indeed, he had forgotten. Tianmiao's generousness made him, not only him, but everyone ignored this.
"Sorry, Miss Tianmiao, please forgive our selfishness. We are too anxious." Professor Wu apologized to Tianmiao.
"It's okay, I can understand your feelings. However, as the guide said, we really have to replenish drinking water. Otherwise, it will not be able to support so many of us on the road." Tian Miao waved his hand and said he didn't have to mind.
"Thank you for your generosity. Then, let's follow the guide's arrangement. Replenish water first, and then find a way. The scientific examination tasks are important, but personal safety must also be put first." Professor Wu made the decision again, all
No one has any objection anymore.
Tian Miao nodded and said, "Then let's go." Then he turned around and went to the camel caravan. The others followed behind.
One day, Que Qiu rode not the lead camel, but the other side next to Tianmiao. However, Tianmiao still let Que Qiu walk in front and lead the way. The camel caravan seemed to be very natural to think that Que Qiu's camel was temporary.
The leader followed up.
Que Qiu knew very well the position of the camel leader in the camel caravan, and she managed the camel caravan so easily?
Although there were many questions in his heart, Que Qiu never asked. From the first time he saw Tianmiao, he decided that she was not an ordinary person.
