Yushadu is not young, at least sixty years old. It is said that he fought several tough battles with President Nasser in the Sinai Peninsula when he was young.

This hookup is nearly forty years.

Alahaya was once a small stronghold of the former Soviet Union, and scientific expedition teams with various purposes entered the desert from here. And Ushadu, who often acted as their guide.

In fact, Yushadu didn't use this name when he was young, but it's just that people who do his business can't bear a real name, so he simply used a pseudonym. The pseudonym was taken very appropriately, and Ushadu, which means "guide" in Arabic, has done the job well for decades. After coming and going, no one knows his real name.

Yushadu reclined in front of the broken board door, holding an Egyptian-style hookah, "Dawarich, I'm sorry, the old man will not take up the task this time. Now is not the time to go into the desert. If I knowingly commit a crime, God will punish me. of."

All of a sudden, the two sides were deadlocked.

But a cry of a baby in the backyard broke the deadlock.

Peter glanced at Jushadu. Yusha said unhurriedly, "My daughter-in-law's belly is full of strength, just like a ewes, and she gave birth to another cub with a handle."

"In a few years, I'm afraid that the skin of your old bones will be eaten up - half the size, I'll eat it to death." Peter laughed.

Yusha ignored him, just puffed on the hookah.

Finally, he looked at Peter with cloudy eyes and said, "Forty years ago, I would have dared to reject you. At that time, you were a group of ideal people, but now, I don't have the courage - not only now, I would not dare to go against your will twenty years ago."

"I'll give you a large sum of money, enough to last your three grandchildren into adulthood." Peter made the promise, and at the same time threw three bundles of dollars to Eusado.

"Okay, I've sold you this old bone," Yusha knew the consequences of not eating or drinking a toast, and resolutely agreed to Peter. And for him, the deal was a good deal: no matter how old he was, he didn't know how many years to live, and the $30,000 was enough for his family's expenses for the next ten years.

After Yushadu agreed, he put forward a request: "You can't drive in the desert, you can only ride a camel. Camels are the messengers of God. If they are there, maybe God will forgive us. Moreover, even if God's factors are not taken into consideration, the desert is not good for the car. Also very unfriendly."

Everyone in the team fell into silence. If they couldn't drive, their speed of action and carrying capacity would drop by several notches.

Tom recalled his dream, and couldn't help but say something for the old man, "Indeed, camels are more reliable."

Alyosha frowned, but Peter tugged at the edge of his coat and he shut up and nodded.

Dr. Hunter also agreed that the old man Yushadu was more professional than everyone present when it came to entering the desert, so he naturally listened to him.

In the desert, a camel that can go without water for more than ten days or more is indeed an excellent mount. After reaching a consensus, the old man Yushadu raised 30 strong camels for the team in just a few hours. Most of the camels raised in the town are dromedary.

Camels are divided into single-humped and double-humped. It can be seen from the literal meaning that the single-humped camel has only one hump, and the two-humped camel has two. The reason why the old man chooses the single-humped camel is that they are more suitable for the desert. Bactrian camels are more suitable for activities in cold climates. The dromedary has been domesticated by people in the Arab region for thousands of years, and it is more adapted to the environment here.

The old man Yushadu drove 30 camels outside his house. The camels were three meters in length and two meters in height. They had thick eyelashes and small, hairy ears. After gathering the camels, the old man laboriously moved out a large bucket. Seeing this, Alyosha quickly took it over.

With a barrel of seventy or eighty pounds, Alyosha's expression did not change.

There is clear spring water in the barrel. The old man sprinkled a bag of salt in it.

In addition to water, the old man Yushadu prepared a lot of concentrate.

"Eat it! Go into the desert after eating." As if they understood the old man's words, the camels ate the feed and drank water.

The camel's stomach has three chambers. The first stomach chamber has 20 to 30 water pans, which can store water. Their red blood cells can also be greatly expanded to absorb water to store water, so the camel can drink water for many days. Fifty liters of water.

It took a long time for the old man to feed the camels. During this period, Alyosha took everyone to put the prepared equipment on the camel. In addition to his own supplies, he also brought a lot of feed and salt bricks.

Tom thought about it, and brought a bag of tea leaves and a bag of dried dates. Date palm is a good thing. There is a local saying in Egypt that in the desert, a single date palm is enough to sustain your life for three days: on the first day, you eat the skin of the date, on the second day you eat the pulp, and on the third Eat the pit.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, dates are indeed a gift from nature to human beings. In Eastern and Western cultures, dates are sacred and gifts from the gods. In the East, jujubes and immortals are even more connected. In the Qin Dynasty, Qi shrew An Qisheng told the first emperor that he had been to Penglai Xianshan Mountain, and the immortals on the mountain treated him with jujubes as big as melons.

Of course, Tom and his party also brought plenty of water. In order to prevent the water from spoiling, Dr. Hunter also added a little rum to each water bag. Alyosha and the others also had bags of spirits hanging around their camel necks. : Vodka, rum and local baijiu. UU reading

Tom's team is somewhat like an ancient camel caravan. Without revealing his identity as a wizard, the team carried enough food to eat for a month and enough water to drink for half a month. The role of the old man in Yushadu is to Find oases and underground rivers for them along the way to rehydrate.

But to be honest, at the speed of the wizard's "clear water like a spring", Tom and Hermione were exhausted and couldn't provide enough fresh water. Of the 30 camels, only 18 actually carried the load, and the rest were all Team members' mounts. The old man in Yushadu also brought a few packs of black powder, which is said to be a special drink, which can be soaked into a drink to relieve the heat.

According to the records in the ancient books found by Dr. Hunt, the ancient city they were looking for was in the direction of the Geberto ruins. The remains of this ancient man are located in a remote area of ​​the Sahara, in the Tenerei Desert, known as the "desert of the desert". Scientists have accumulated more than 200 human tombs here. Also included are the bones of some animals, large fish and crocodiles - the area used to be a lake.

It is hard to imagine that this barren land was once a lake with lush water and grass.
