"No matter what, we have got rid of them, Che Galiba, speed up." Li Cu didn't care whether Lan Ting and the others were humans or ghosts at this time, but...
The figure of Zhang Qiling appeared in Li Cu's mind. Why did he know everything? For some reason, Zhang Qiling always gave him a feeling of being apart from everyone, as if he had already known everything he encountered. Calm and calm, who is he? There seems to have never been a word of truth in his mouth. Where does he come from? Why does he suddenly appear in everyone's sight? Is that face... really his? ?
Li Cu only felt that a large cloud of mystery was surrounding him, and he was trapped in it, unable to extricate himself. Questions appeared in his mind one after another. He really wanted to ask Zhang Qiling personally and let him answer his questions, but he didn't need to ask him. I knew that Zhang Qiling would definitely make up a lie on the spot to deal with him.
Li Cu's expression suddenly became decadent. Zhang Qiling noticed his change immediately, and his eyes suddenly became confused. "Li Cu" he called out.
Hearing his voice, Li Cu immediately turned his head, and the decadent look on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace, "What's wrong?"
"You..." Zhang Qiling looked at him, looked him up and down, and finally just frowned and said: "Don't think too much, if there is danger, I will protect you."
A smile appeared at the corner of Li Cu's mouth, "Thank you." Looking at Zhang Qiling's eyes, Li Cu felt that the truth was not important anymore. Just don't hurt him.
"I said, little boss, we encountered this kind of thing as soon as we went out. I feel a little unlucky. Otherwise, we shouldn't go to Gutongjing today." Che Galiba looked at him and discussed.
Hearing this, Li Cu looked at him and said, "You want to go back? Okay, go back."
"This is what you said," Che Gali pulled the camel and was about to turn around. Li Cu suddenly said, "But we won't give you the money."
When Che Galiba heard that he wanted to refuse to pay, he immediately became unhappy and said, "How could this be possible? Aren't you also going to Gutong Jing? Why do you want me to take you there?"
"I have been to Gutongjing, but you, a local, are more familiar with the weather in this desert."
"You're going too far." Che Galiba was so angry that his teeth started to itch.
There was a smile on Li Cu's lips, "What's too much? You can choose for yourself, whether you want to continue walking with us or not ask for money."
Che Galiba looked at him and compromised: "Okay, I promise you to go on, but you also have to promise me one thing, that is, when you get to Gutongjing, you can take a look before leaving, okay?"
Li Cu nodded, "That's it."
Behind them, Su Wan called Yang Hao, "Brother, have you noticed that Yali's whole person has changed after entering the desert."
"You think so too." Yang Hao was happy that Su Wan had the same idea as him. He thought it was his illusion.
The camel caravan kept moving forward slowly in the desert. Che Galiba looked ahead and said: "We were delayed for so long. I'm afraid we won't be able to reach Gutongjing tonight."
"No." Li Cu looked at the drawing in his hand, "We must arrive as soon as possible. In this way, Che Galiba, we will go on a night journey tonight."
"No," Che Galiba refused, "The road here at night is not easy to walk on."
"Stop this trick, tell me how much you want." Liang Wan interrupted him.
Che Galiba sneered, "This is not a matter of money. What I said is true. Look, the equipment we brought is too little. We can't carry it for two days."
"That's why we need to speed up. In this way, we will give you the money to add two more sheep."
"I've said it before, this is not a matter of money."
"I mean what I said." Li Cu said.
"Alas~" Che Galiba sighed, "Okay, okay, there's really nothing we can do against you Chinese, so that's it."
night
"How long will it take for us to arrive?" Su Wan couldn't hold on any longer. He really wanted to lie down and rest right now.
At this time, they had switched from riding camels to walking in the fields. "Does anyone know what time it is now?" Yang Hao asked.
"It should be almost ten o'clock," Li Cu replied.
"How do you know that without looking at your watch?"
"The height of the North Star can represent time. Do you know the North Star and the Big Dipper? First, we find the direction of the mouth of the Big Dipper. The mouth of the mouth points to the North Star. The North Star represents true north, and the following directions are the southeast, northwest, and northwest." Su Wan explained to Yang Hao.
"I didn't expect that," Liang Wan turned around and walked backwards, praising: "You learned well."
"Of course," Su Wan said with a proud look on his face, "This is a must-test in geography class."
"Wait a minute" Li Cu looked at the place in his hand, making everyone stop.
"What's wrong?" Liang Wan took a step forward and asked.
Li Cu didn't answer his words, turned around and walked towards Che Galiba, "Che Galiba, did you follow my route?"
"Yes." Che Galiba nodded.
"Then why isn't it due northwest?" Li Cu asked him to look at the compass in his hand, "The map clearly shows the direction northwest."
"Oh~" Che Galiba explained to him: "There is a detour on the map, I took the shortcut."
This sentence instantly ignited Li Cu's anger. He grabbed Che Galiba's collar and said, "Why don't you follow my map."
"Let me go, what are you doing?" Che Galiba struggled and the two were about to fight. Zhang Qiling walked over to the two of them and separated them.
Che Galiba pointed at Li Cu, "Try moving me again. I told you this was a shortcut. Didn't you want to go to Gutong Jing early? Is that what you said?"
Li Cu threw Zhang Qiling away and held his hand, "From the beginning, what I said was to follow my map."
Zhang Qiling lowered his eyes and looked at his hand that was thrown away by Li Cu again, crying in his heart, why was he the one who got hurt every time?
Liang Wan pulled Li Cu, "Okay, don't be unreasonable. If there is really a shortcut, why not take the shortcut? Everyone is tired. Isn't it interesting to take the long way according to the map?"
Hearing what Liang Wan said, Zhang Qiling subconsciously retorted: "Since Wuxie gave this picture, there must be his intention." He pulled Li Cu behind him and glanced at them lightly. , "Let's go back around."
"If you ask him to be a tour guide, you should listen to him and trust him." Liang Wan looked at Zhang Qiling and said.
"Don't mention the tour guide. I didn't want to find a tour guide in the first place, and now I'm wasting my time because of this tour guide." Li Cu looked at Che Galiba with an unkind look.
"Kid, can you tell me something again?" Che Galiba instantly lost his mind and was about to start a fight with Li Cu again, but several people from Liangwan immediately stopped him.
"Everyone of you should say less and stop arguing!" Su Wan shouted loudly, and the atmosphere became silent.
Li Cu pulled Zhang Qiling towards the northwest, "Let's go in this direction."
