When Zhou Shiwu learned that Song Jiang and others were going to the no-man's land in the northwest with Shao Jun and the others, he drove over in an imported Raptor suitable for traveling in the Gobi Desert. They were going to the 800-mile no-man's land on this trip. Zhou Shiwu happened to go there once with his friends before. According to his experience, Meng Zhe and Deng Kai's cars were probably not suitable for entering the Gobi Desert, so he went with them on his own initiative...
Shao Jun didn't have any objections to having one more person accompanying him. They were all here to help anyway, and one more person would naturally lead to a helper. In fact, before they set off, Shao Jun had already contacted his local colleagues and sent people into the 800-mile no-man's land, thinking that he would find Sun Wenchu first anyway, but the few people walked in a hurry and completed the 800 kilometers in a hurry. Later, not even the shadow of Sun Wenchu was seen...
If you just cross this 800-mile no-man's land, it actually won't take long. If you go quickly, you can complete it in one day. However, many self-driving enthusiasts like to stop and go, camping and taking pictures of the desolation. The scenery is dreamy, so it is normal to walk for three to five days. Of course, this mainly depends on how much supplies you bring in the car... After all, it would be very scary if the supplies are cut off in the Gobi Desert.
Just in case, Shao Jun took Wu Lei with him this time, so that if Sun Wenchu really passed away unfortunately, they could get first-hand autopsy results. Also accompanying the car were Xiao Wu and Zhao Jie. The two of them were acquaintances with Song Jiang, so it was easier to talk and do things on the road...
When the group of people arrived at their destination, a car from the local police station had already been waiting at the highway intersection. After Shao Jun stopped the car and exchanged greetings with the other party, he followed their car all the way to a local restaurant for a simple meal. A casual meal. One of the people responsible for receiving them, Li Peidong, was a senior who graduated from the same police academy as Shao Jun. He spoke with a northwest accent and had a very cheerful personality.
Shao Jun introduced Song Jiang and his party to Li Peidong at the dinner table, saying that they were the consultants and team leaders he invited.
After hearing this, Li Peidong smiled and said, "Look at how different you people from big cities are. You all have tender skin and tender meat! I don't know if you can get used to the food here. Is there anything you don't like about it?" Just tell me!"
Upon hearing this, Shao Jun said amusedly, "Senior brother is really good at joking. Which of your eyes has seen my thin skin and tender flesh?"
After Li Peidong joked with him for a few words, he asked with some confusion, "Is this Sun Wenchu a key figure in some case? How can you, the leader of the special case team, travel all the way to do this?"
Shao Jun suddenly smiled helplessly and said, "Brother, are you treating me badly? The special case team has a great reputation... Don't we still have to ask you to help us when we encounter problems? This Sun Wenchu is indeed the one we have now. He is an important witness in a case here, and his safety must be confirmed as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Li Peidong nodded and said, "Okay... Since we will load up enough supplies after dinner, we will go to the Gobi first. In fact, the situation in these 800 miles of no-man's land is not complex at all, but it is really simple. It’s not simple. Nature is like this. If you have awe of it, you will generally not encounter any great danger, but the opposite would be bad. Let’s talk about the people who had an accident some time ago. , they are all veteran players of self-driving tours, thinking that they can walk out of the Gobi Desert with their eyes closed, but what happened? The car broke down, the supplies were cut off, and they didn’t bring a satellite phone. When the rescue was found, All the people in the car were gone. Every time we participated in the rescue, we told the people with sincerity that human life is actually very fragile and cannot withstand the heat of nature."
Song Jiang could tell that Li Peidong should often encounter this kind of thing, so he could express his emotion, so he sighed, "Some people are born with an adventurous spirit... Such people will never see the coffin." If you don’t shed tears, you have chosen the path you have chosen. If you get to that point, you can’t blame others. It’s just you who worked hard every time who rescued me in the past.”
One of Li Peidong's colleagues said angrily, "Who says it's not?! Sometimes we work so hard to save people, but the other party still doesn't appreciate it?! Say they have their own plans? Do you think it's irritating or not!"
Li Peidong laughed when he heard this, "Actually, this is our job. It's not hard at all. It's just that every time I see that we spent so much manpower and material resources but still failed to save the person in the end, I feel a little uncomfortable." , so I just complained to you guys..."
After the group finished eating, they followed Li Peidong to load supplies. This time they entered the no-man's land. Counting Shao Jun and Zhou Shiwu's cars, a total of four off-road vehicles were driven in. Each vehicle was filled to the brim, especially drinking water. Water, Li Peidong said that if you don’t eat for three days in the Gobi Desert, you won’t starve to death, but if you don’t drink water for one day, you will die, so they can’t lack water even if they lack anything.
Simply because there are self-driving drivers visiting this area all year round, there are many places selling outdoor equipment and supplies, and they are all very professional shops. Some are even shops opened by local guides themselves, so you can Earn commissions from guides, as well as money for equipment and supplies.
The guide Li Peidong hired this time was his brother Wu Gang, who he had a good relationship with. The supplies were also bought from his store. Because the situation this time was different from the previous ones, it was not certain that Sun Wenchu was in danger, so he could only follow the normal rules. Looking for the crossing route...
After everything was ready, their group of four off-road vehicles set off into the Gobi Desert in the afternoon. Before dark, they arrived at the first camp of their trip to camp for the night. The reason why they were not in a hurry to go deep into the no-man's land was because They had satellite phones in their cars, so as long as they were sure that Sun Wenchu had come out, they would naturally stop going deeper into the Gobi.
Although it is now late autumn, it is the best season to enter the Gobi Desert because there is less wind and sand at this time, which can reduce the probability of distress. Moreover, in addition to their convoy, there were several other vehicles spending the night in this camp, so even though the temperature difference between day and night was huge, it still felt quite good to have a group of people talking and laughing around the campfire.
Unfortunately, Shao Jun and others were not so comfortable. At this time, they were eating pancakes and dried meat around the fire and discussing tomorrow's search route. They heard Song Jiang say worriedly, "Captain Li, under normal circumstances How many days does it take for these self-driving drivers to get out of the no-man’s land?”
An update today...
