Speaking of the desert, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the golden, endless sand dunes. In fact, the desert is not like this. When I first entered the desert, it couldn't be called a desert. The desert might be more appropriate: a clump of plants that Tom couldn't name is the mainstream here.

There is also very little sand, more dust and gravel. Yusha has extremely valuable desert survival experience, and sometimes even if there is no water on the surface, he can forcibly dig out water.

"If dense reeds are found in the desert, it means that water can be dug up to a depth of more than one meter; if you see Achnatherum splendens, the water is about two meters underground; if you see camel thorns, you need to dig 6-8 meters of water. Rice; Populus euphratica is the deepest, 8 to 10 meters underground." The old man Yushadu pointed to a clump of Achnatherum splendens and said, "Of course it's not absolute, but you can try it."

It was getting late, and Alyosha was naturally happy to try it without delaying the journey.

"But you need to add some color," Alyosha said seriously. "If there is no water, you should give me a bag of your dried fruit powder." The packets of powder that the old man Yushadu brought are his unique secret recipe. , I used several kinds of dried fruit to prepare a pot of hot water with the embers of the campfire before going to bed at night, pour the dried fruit powder into the water bag, brew it with hot water, and then throw the kettle into the sand. The next day There is a jug of cold sour juice.

A sip under the scorching sun can fill a pot of water. That sweet and sour taste, even the memory of it will make a mouth drool.

The old man Yushadu didn't care, and even lit a bag of cigarettes for himself, "No problem, but if the water is dug up, your bag of white grass wine will be mine."

Alyosha nodded and gave the brothers behind him a wink, and a few of them picked up the engineer shovel and started digging.

A few of them are worthy of being the elite of Maozi, and the foundation of civil work is excellent, and they dug a two-meter-deep hole in a short time.

"Stop!" He shouted, bent down and touched the ground, the originally dry sand was already wet, and a few shovels down, there really was a little cloudy water droplets.

"Good luck." The old man Yushadu walked unsteadily to Alyosha's camel, and in Alyosha's heartbroken eyes, he untied a chubby leather bag.

Next, the old man tried to make a bet with the team members, but no Tie Hanhan was willing to fight anymore.

In the beginning, the desert journey was new and interesting to this group of people, but when the freshness passed, there was only a dull journey left. After walking like this for three or four days, the sand at the feet gradually increased, and the bushes and grasses gradually decreased. Finally, when only the sand was left, Tom and the others truly stepped into the desert.

Yushadu is like a living map. He can always find the right direction and a place to provide supplies in a sea of ​​sand—supply water, feed the camels. Tom suspects that without the old man, they might be on their way back by now. In addition to leading the way as a guide, Yushadu is also responsible for planning the itinerary and teaching everyone how to travel in the desert.

These are all university questions.

For example, in the face of sand dunes, the old man in Yushadu will definitely choose to go around, and he will deliberately avoid the soft sand on the leeward side when walking, and try to walk on the windward side and sand ridges.

When Alyosha asked about the reason for the detour, the old man looked at him for a while with the eyes of a fool before telling him that because the windward side was blown by the wind every day, it was pressed very hard, and it was easier to walk on it. The leeward side is the loose sand accumulated after the wind blows, walking on it, one foot has a big hole, and it is very difficult.

Of course, the easiest way is to follow the meaning of camels, they know how to walk with the least effort. The old man Yushadu was only responsible for telling the camels where to go. They can find the best way to go on their own.

Walking in the desert, and learning to stay in the night and out. Otherwise, under the scorching sun, people will be dizzy in the sun within two hours. Early morning is the best time to hurry: the weather is not hot, there is still light, the real plan of the day is in the morning.

Yushadu is also responsible for choosing the campsite. There is still a big difference between camping in the desert and camping in other areas. The camp should be chosen in a place sheltered from the wind and must be prepared for quicksand, so the old man generally chooses the flat land among the dunes as the camp. In addition, the camp must not be set near red willows, poplars and other plants, because where there are plants, there are often poisonous insects.

The old man was so versatile that Peter wanted to give him a raise.

But the old man seriously refused.

"God is watching," he said seriously. "I promised you that I would give you $30,000 as a guide. That's $30,000. I must never raise the price in the desert. It's called taking advantage of others."

The camel team moved on. The sun gradually slanted westward, and the thin clouds on the horizon turned red, and on a dead tree in the distance sat a bird of prey of an unknown species. A smile appeared on the old man's face.

The old man may have never heard of the saying, "If the sunset does not go out, the sunset will travel for thousands of miles", but the old man's experience tells him that when he sees the sunset, the weather should be good in the future - he is not afraid of rain, but he is afraid of sandstorms.

Everyone is in a good mood tonight. A few pieces of dead wood were dug out of the campsite found by the old man Yushadu, which relieved the pressure of fuel. Yegor, the assaulter under Alyosha, hunted a few snakes and returned, giving everyone a chance to enjoy fresh meat.

After the bonfire went up, everyone gathered around. Hermione folded her legs and sat beside Tom. In the desert, she naturally wouldn't wear gorgeous clothes, just a simple pair of high-top Martin boots and a white robe, wrapped in a headscarf.

But although it looks ordinary, she and Tom are much more comfortable than Dr. Hunter and the others these days: the magic robes isolate the wind and sand and the hot sun, allowing them to walk in the desert and on the Hogwarts lawn. The feeling is almost the same Sarah took a lunch box and sat cross-legged next to Tom, then she stretched and yawned.

When she crossed her feet and opened her arms, Tom almost fainted: Western women have a strong smell, and Sarah can't find a place to bathe these days, so...

Tom moved his **** quietly.

Fortunately, the wind direction changed slightly after a while, blowing the dirty air far away, and even brought the smell of Hermione sitting on the upper wind.

"Tea is ready." Tom brought the kettle over the fire, which contained steaming green tea.

After trekking in the desert all day, a cup of hot tea is very refreshing.

While Hermione was drinking tea, Tom also took out a can of luncheon meat, sliced ​​the lunchmeat in it, took a clean stone and placed it on the edge of the fire. After a while, the stone was hot, and Tom put the luncheon meat on it again. The luncheon meat sizzled and smelled of oil.

Tom picked up the meat with a toothpick,

"Ah—" The meat slice was stuffed into Hermione's mouth.
