wild star

Chapter 54
No one can be full of confidence when entering the desert for the first time, Zhao Yanling is also beating a drum in his heart, and every time he walks a certain distance, he will take out the compass and turn it around.It's okay to determine the direction, and he will also ask the fat man about his own location.

Based on this, Shuiyou confirmed that Lao Zhao really came with a mission.Fighting the tiger brother, the two brothers cooperated again, and the fat man was the backup.

The sad beauty of "the lonely smoke in the desert, the sun setting in the long river" is all left behind after more than an hour, and you will only feel guilty.

He was afraid that the water friends would find it boring, so he said a few words from time to time, but he didn't dare to waste his saliva.As for the size of the Taklimakan, he didn't even bother to introduce such familiar things as the Sea of ​​Death.

"It turns out that this is the real desert, which is a bit cruel."

"Cruelty is attractive, blazing and pathetic, like a rough tambourine in a border town, the rhythm is simple but makes your scalp numb."

Zhao Yanling had already wrapped the scarf around her head to prevent the sun from getting dizzy.Similar to snow fields, excessive ultraviolet rays and the reflection of sunlight by sand grains in the desert can also damage the eyes.The smart glasses that An Xin gave him have the function of adjusting the color and the effect of sunglasses.

Fortunately, it was already late when we set off, and the sun had already set in the west, slowly sinking into the yellow sand.The unusually large sun was distorted and deformed by the high-temperature air above the sand dunes, which aroused the amazement of the water lovers.You can't see anything like this anywhere except in the desert.

"It's quite a blessing to be able to see such a scene from a mobile phone and a computer."

A new face came to the live broadcast room, and suddenly swiped twenty spaceships: "This is a deposit. Next time, Lao Zhao, you will take me on a trip. You decide the location. After the end, I will give you 50 yuan. Do you want to?"

"Here comes another inhumane person who is so rich?"

"Things of a feather flock together, people are divided into poor people, and being rich is great..."

At this time, Zhao Yanling wouldn't be in the mood to care about those tippings that passed by.Money is exciting only when it can be spent, otherwise it is a waste of paper.

But such a big gift, so scruples that it will chill people's hearts, and finally said: "There is such a strange request, then I have to think about it."

I thought this trip would be boring, and the number of viewers in the live broadcast room would be less than the previous two times.With a glance, he found that the number had exceeded 300 million...

Seeing the setting sun was about to fall, he considered finding a place to rest.Suddenly, I saw a bulge at the end of the sand dune in front of me. When I approached, I found that it was a rock with a strange shape full of holes.

"Wind-eroded mushrooms!" God sent a pillow when he fell asleep.

"Mushroom? This metaphor is very vivid."

"The shape is so peculiar, Lao Zhao picked it back, and I will buy it for [-]."

His fans have a characteristic. When they see anything weird and weird, no matter whether it is dead or alive, they want to spend money to buy it home.

This rock must not be moved, he will sleep here tonight!I took out the engineering shovel and cleaned it up a little, and found that there were brand new traces of leftover food on the ground.He was excited, it was probably left behind by those three people, indicating that the direction was correct.

Drive the pickets into the sand, tie the camels, and feed them first.

"Old Zhao treats the camels really well, he keeps them close while eating!"

"Where's the chocolate?"

Zhao Yanling patted the back of the camel affectionately, feeling very grateful to these companions.

He said: "I won't talk about some desert-related information on the bad street. Let's talk about camels while eating. We all know that camels are hungry and thirsty, but I'm afraid you don't know, can they not eat or drink for a few days? ?”

"You know, a camel's hump can store nutrients and water!"

Zhao Yanling took out the can, piled up some sand that hadn't dissipated the heat, covered it with heat, and said, "Then you must not know the weight of a camel and how far it can go every day. Hey, I really don't know. A camel can carry 150 A weight of 250 kilograms, isn’t it amazing? I’m only over 80 kilograms! Under heavy load, they can walk 30 to 40 kilometers in the desert every day. This time I’m going into the desert, I’m relying on them!”

"You are really good, but you are skinnier."

"Since you went to America, you are very impressive, old Zhao. Let's watch."

At this time, the can was already hot, so he opened it, chewed the naan slowly, and swallowed it with the warm water from the kettle.The water friend actually likes this tune, on the one hand, he feels that Lao Zhao is a little pitiful, on the other hand, he thinks he is a tough guy.The feeling of being able to sit in a warm office, nestle on a soft sofa, and lie on a comfortable bed, which not only has a sense of substitution but also guarantees safety, is what attracts them the most.

What could be more pleasant than finding a shelter in the desolate desert?For example, Zhao Yanling sat under a banana leaf to avoid the heavy rain in the South American jungle before.

Zhao Yanling has a lot of food, but under special circumstances, it is necessary to save money on food and clothing.He asked local people who have experience in desert survival that they need to drink water frequently and eat less and more food so that they can go further.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the camel rested lying on the ground, with a small piece of white Haloxylon beside it.

The desert is arid, has little water, and has a large amount of evaporation. The plants living here have evolved accordingly.Some leaves shrink, become rods, or simply evolve into spines.Some vegetative organs grow into fat and flesh to store water.In order to resist the sun, some branches turned off-white, just like the white Haloxylon in front of them.

Strangely, there were two bumps like termite nests in the white Haloxylon, Zhao Yanling opened it curiously to have a look.

"Come on, the gifts you want are on them!"

Among the water friends, there is no shortage of knowledgeable ones.Immediately, there was an exclamation in the barrage.

"Cistanche!"

"Seven times seven times all depend on it!"

"Don't draw a lottery, the one with the highest price will get it!"

This thing grows by parasitizing on the roots of Haloxylon to absorb water, and the Chinese people have an almost fanatical love for this kind of kidney tonic.Many Chinese herbal medicines have been boasted to the level of superstition. As for the real effect, it is up to the benevolent to see the wisdom of the wise.

The three-branch nine-leaf clover in the northeast forest, also known as Epimedium, also has a very good similar effect.But when there are many three-branch nine-leaf clover, it can be found all over the mountains and plains, and if you find one, you can pick a few sacks.

The price of Cistanche is so high that people praise it to the sky, or because it is becoming more and more rare, it is regarded as "desert ginseng".

He said: "It is impossible to sell, wait for the lottery, and treat everyone equally!"

Carefully dig out the roots of Cistanche and pack them into the package on the back of the camel.People don't suffer from inequality. After he promised to draw a fair lottery, everyone lost their envy, jealousy and hatred.

I dug a sand pit, picked up some dry Haloxylon branches and leaves and gathered them in a pile to ignite.

Sand dunes and wind-eroded mushrooms surrounded three sides, and the remaining side was blocked by a bonfire. The blanket on the camel covered his legs, and Zhao Yanling didn't feel the cold.

Cistanche warmed up the live broadcast room, and Zhao Yanling felt how scary it was when 300 million people swiped gifts.In one afternoon, he did nothing but promise to draw a lottery, but the amount of the gift was as high as 50...

The water friend urged him to tell the legends in the desert, Zhao Yanling cleared his throat, and began to speak in plain language: "If you want to tell the story of the desert, it is really vivid and specific..."
