The pigtail immediately understood what Zhao Hu meant, and asked with a wicked smile: "You are not thinking of yourself, are you?"
Zhao Hu chuckled: "Yes, when I go to bed with women, I always like to show off my treasures. None of them doesn't praise me for my awesomeness."
As he said that, he also pulled the waistband of his pants with his hand.
I laughed and scolded: "We are talking about animals here, and you have to involve yourself. Do you think you are also an animal?"
The pigtail immediately laughed: "That's right, I think you are just an animal."
"Go away, you are the animals."
After the camel was full of food and water, and other supplies were loaded on the camel, we began to discuss.
The main discussion is about who will go into the desert this time:
Does everyone go?
Just leave one or two people here.
What I mean is to leave one or two, such as Sister Yuan or Jianzui.
Keeping them is not to make them responsible for logistical support, because logistical support is almost useless. If we really encounter difficulties in the desert and need rescue, even if we call Sister Yuan to inform her, she will not be able to find us.
What's more, there is no signal in the desert, and you may not be able to make calls.
I want her and Jianzui to stay because I think it's too dangerous in the desert and the supplies are precious. One more person means more consumption, and she and Jianzui probably won't be able to help much, to put it bluntly. The point is that I think they are dragging their feet, so they might as well stay.
But Sister Yuan disagreed. She said that she also wanted to follow us to appreciate the desert scenery. After that, she went over and patted Tuboy on the shoulder, and said with trust: "I believe in Tuboy's ability. He will definitely be able to bring us out safely." Yes, isn’t it, country boy?”
Tu Boyer smiled shyly. He didn't know whether he had enough confidence in himself or was unwilling to refuse Sister Yuan. At this time, he said: "No...it's not a big problem."
Jianzui was also dissatisfied with my arrangement at this time. He said: "Why should I stay? You just want to go find the treasure and not give me a share, right?"
Just as I was about to speak, Lao Hu waved his hand to me and said, "It doesn't matter. It's okay to have a local boy leading the team. If it really doesn't work, just lead a few more camels and pack more water and food. As long as you ensure that your people are all Be obedient and follow the command, it doesn’t matter if there are one or two more.”
At this time, Xiaoye also said that we should go together. After all, she didn’t know how long the trip would take. If it took a long time, the two people left behind would be bored.
In this case, I can't say much.
Let the tu boy tell us some precautions. After making all preparations, we led the camels into the yellow dust under the leadership of the tu boy.
Because the road was not difficult to walk at the beginning, we did not ride camels but walked to reduce the burden on the camels.
After walking for more than two hours, we entered a desert.
Most of the land here is still geologically hard, not all sand as I imagined, and there are a lot of green plants on the ground, which also makes me sigh. Although the environment here is harsh and the air is dry, these green plants are still very beautiful. Tenacious.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, the road under our feet became difficult to walk, because by this time the camel team had already climbed up the rolling sand dunes. It was about to slide down two steps, and it was very difficult to pull out the feet that were buried in the sand. Xiaoye and Sister Yuan soon screamed and couldn't walk.
In desperation, the local boy asked us to get on the camels, which made it much easier.
By about five o'clock, the wind gradually subsided and the dust seemed to be much less.
Although it is already five o'clock, the sun is no longer strong at this point in our hometown, but here is the west, and this point is still very late before the sun sets. At this time, under the direct sunlight, each of us feels very hot.
Even taking a breath makes me feel like my throat is on fire.
I asked the boy what the surface temperature of the sand was at this time, and he said it was at least over 50 degrees. If it was exposed to the sun at noon, it might reach 60 or 70 degrees. By then, people would not be able to walk directly in the sun. , will burn the soles off.
Zhao Hu might have been too thirsty, so he took a cup of water and kept drinking water. The boy immediately stopped him and said, "Don't drink water in big gulps."
Zhao Hu took down the water glass and looked at the boy while panting: "Why?"
The boy said: "In the desert, water is the most important resource. It is too wasteful for you to drink like this. You just drink a whole glass of water in one go. Within ten minutes, your mouth and nose will feel dry again. In order to keep your mouth and nose moist for a long time, you have to drink it in small sips, hold it in your mouth and don’t swallow it quickly, and let the water seep into your throat bit by bit.”
Zhao Hu smiled bitterly: "It doesn't quench my thirst like this. It's better to drink it in big gulps."
"To survive in the desert, whether or not to quench your thirst is secondary. The main thing is to survive."
"Okay, I'll drink it in small sips."
"It's really too hot, Xiaoye, are you hot?" At this time, Sister Yuan put her hand in front of her forehead and said.
Xiaoye nodded and said it was hot.
The pigtail immediately said: "Then take off the clothes on your head. I see you are covering it so much, you will definitely be hot."
When the dust was serious before, Xiaoye and Sister Yuan were afraid that the sand and dust would get into their hair, so they both covered their heads with clothes.
At this moment, Little Braid reminded her, Xiao Ye naturally reached out and grabbed the clothes, intending to pull the clothes off her head.
The boy stopped him immediately: "Don't take it, it will make you even hotter if you take off your clothes."
"ah?"
Xiaoye had already grabbed her clothes and was about to pull them away from her head. Tuhai'er's words made her hands stop on top of her head in confusion.
Then, Tu Boyer explained: "It's very hot in the desert. You need to wrap yourself in gauze or clothes to insulate from the outside world and prevent the loss of body surface moisture. If you take it off, it will be even hotter."
Xiao Ye nodded and covered her head with clothes again. The braid also quickly took a piece of clothes and covered her head in the same way.
The boy probably also thought that when we came to the desert for the first time, we should proceed step by step and not be exhausted or overheated all at once. He later pointed to a sand dune in the distance and said: "Climb over that sand dune. We are in the shade behind. Let’s take a rest, have something to eat and drink some water, and wait until it gets cooler in the evening before setting off.”
"By the way, why don't we set off at night and rest during the day? I remember watching a popular science TV before, which said that it is better to travel at night in the desert because it won't get hot." Zhao Hu asked at this time.
The boy kicked the camel with the inside of his foot and let it continue its journey.
At the same time, he replied to Zhao Hu: "It is also possible to leave at night, but not during this period."
"why?"
"It's the sound of Grandma Ma opening the door recently. If you set out at night, you will easily get entangled by Grandma Ma's children, and someone will die!"
