After Yan Jiecheng and the others settled down in Yangzhuang, they asked the village party secretary to introduce a guide.
After hearing this, Party Secretary Yang repeatedly said that there was no need to trouble others, as he was very familiar with the people in the villages.
Ever since yesterday, Party Secretary Yang learned that Yan Jiecheng and the others were his son's teachers, and his enthusiasm was beyond description.
I wish I could invite people to the upper room to settle down immediately.
After getting ready, they set off on the third day.
There were eight people in the group. In addition to Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie, there was also the guide Lao Yang, two guards and three technicians from the survey team.
This place is full of small roads, and few people drive. Only guard Xiao Chen led a mule, carrying everyone's food and water, some equipment and a tent.
They planned to be away for two days, so they needed to spend the night outside.
Today they have to go to the place with the largest terrain difference in the preliminary survey. Yan Jiecheng and the others need to review the data and conduct on-site surveys.
Everyone walked for seven or eight hours to arrive. After a short rest, they began to set up camp.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when everything was settled.
It will be late autumn, and the north wind will blow from time to time in the northwest.
Everyone had just set up their tents and were drinking water and resting.
Then the wind began to blow, and the wind was strong and fast.
There were also puffs of sand and dust thrown up.
The sky is filled with yellow, and people can't see anything at all.
Fortunately, everyone's tents were in the lee of the mountain.
"Hey, the sandstorm is blowing again. The leaders don't dare to go out. The wind here is so strong that it can blow people away." Party Secretary Yang warned everyone.
No one needed to be reminded. They could feel how strong the wind was by feeling the sway of the tent.
Everyone was crowded in this small space, and they were a little silent.
From time to time, dust would blow into the tent.
The light in the tent was a little dark at this time as the sand and dust blocked the sky and the sun.
The most eye-catching thing is the bright lights that flicker on and off when people smoke.
Yan Jiecheng saw a sandstorm for the first time and asked curiously: "Zhishu Yang, do you have sandstorms here all year round?"
Secretary Yang smashed the cigarette pot and said, "That's not true. It's fine in the summer, but it's a dead blow in winter and spring."
Wang Gong of the survey team said: “We used to be constructing next door, and the biggest obstacle faced by the troops was the bad weather.
During that winter, when the yellow wind blew, it was bitingly cold. Working in the open air often resulted in frostbite.
In spring and autumn, strong winds rise suddenly, flying sand and rocks, the sky becomes dark, tents will be blown down, and cars will be blown over.
In summer, the endless Gobi Desert is another scene. "
Lao Xie also talked about his previous experience in Tiannan.
"Hey, that place is not suitable for us northerners to stay in.
It happened to be summer when we went.
My body is sticky all day long, and the key is that there are many mosquitoes.
One bite of a big lump makes it more itchy the more you scratch it. In the end, my whole body was swollen from mosquito bites. "
Yan Jiecheng was amused and said with a smile: "I really went to gain weight."
With the weather, everyone couldn't do any work, so they all just chatted about everything, which was a kind of fun.
The wind kept blowing until night.
Yan Jiecheng and the others did not expect to be able to work today, so they ate some buckwheat pancakes, cleaned up and went to bed.
The tent was a large tent, and everyone was crowded together.
At first, there was nothing.
The smell of sweat, feet, and all kinds of sour smells from behind were mixed together, tormenting Yan Jiecheng all the time.
He felt like he was going to collapse.
Although he hadn't taken a shower for several days, he couldn't stand the smell.
I couldn't say anything, just suppressed my nausea and fell asleep.
After a while, he almost fell asleep.
"Director, director, are you asleep?"
Yan Jiecheng heard Lao Xie ask quietly from the side.
"without."
Yan Jiecheng said angrily.
"Hey, I have to go for a while. Look at this nonsense. Director, can you accompany me?"
Yan Jiecheng:...
"It's settled outside the tent."
"Oh, that big one." Lao Xie said sheepishly.
Yan Jiecheng: If it were a woman, I would have endured it. Lao Xie, just thinking about it makes me sick to death, I can’t think about it, I can’t think about it...
Resisting the urge to strangle Lao Xie, Yan Jiecheng touched the gun holster beside him and followed him out.
The wind and sand outside have stopped, and there is a layer of dust on the ground.
It's a bit soft for people to walk on.
The two of them stopped about two hundred meters away from the tent.
"Lao Xie, hurry up the hell."
Yan Jiecheng took out a cigarette and lit it, leaning against the trunk of an apricot tree that had died long ago, trying to think of other things.
But Lao Xie was restless, and the banging sounds kept ringing in Yan Jiecheng's ears, torturing him.
After a while, Yan Jiecheng lit another cigarette and saw that there was no movement from Lao Xie's side.
Feeling a little curious, I turned around and took a look.
I wiped it, and the cigarette in Yan Jiecheng's mouth fell directly to the ground.
He quickly took out his pistol from his holster and pointed it at Lao Xie.
I saw two green shiny things five or six meters in front of Lao Xie.
There are two emerald-like things more than ten meters away.
What the hell is this a wolf? Yan Jiecheng felt panicked.
If the other party pounced directly, Lao Xie would definitely be in tragedy.
I wonder if the headquarters will award Lao Xie an honorary title at that time.
No wonder Lao Xie calmed down and stopped spreading poison.
Lao Xie would be scared to death, so how dare he fart.
I regretted it so much now. If I knew that if I pooped, I would meet a wolf, even if I pooped in my pants, he wouldn't come out.
It's much safer to stay in the tent, after all, there are several guns.
He could only pray that Yan Jiecheng brought a gun and that Yan Jiecheng's marksmanship was good.
Yan Jiecheng's marksmanship is good, but now he, Lao Xie and the wolf, three points and one line, how to fight?
The key problem is that he doesn't dare to move.
If the wolf is alerted, Lao Xie will be in tragedy.
Besides, he didn't dare to take risks.
After all, he was always on target.
But it was a fixed target after all, and it was the first time it was moved.
This wolf is very patient and motionless, making the whole atmosphere very tense.
Yan Jiecheng heard a saying in his previous life.
Don't stay too close to wolves. When prey despises the presence of wolves, they have often fallen into the wolf's hunting area.
Life has left the body.
This is the wolf.
The life of a wolf is a life of fighting. Even if the body and soul are about to be separated, they are still calm.
Life is not a joy, and death is not a fear.
Just when Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie were competing with the wolf for patience.
The mules beside the tent in the distance began to bray, which not only woke up the people in the tent.
It also alarmed the wolves here.
The stalking wolf in the distance let out a long howl.
The wolf on Lao Xie's side neighed in a low voice.
He was about to attack and rushed towards Lao Xie.
Yan Jiecheng stared at it, took aim and pulled the trigger.

Hearing this voice, Yan Jiecheng suddenly turned pale and broke out in cold sweat.
He was so nervous just now that he didn't turn on the safety of his pistol.
