Chapter 22: The Third Night(1/2)

The sky is getting darker and darker.

The convoy was still crawling clumsyly on Lop Nur, and the headlights were lit one after another.

Under the illumination of the headlights, the undulating salt crust surface appears a dead gray color, with the raised areas brighter, the concave areas darker, layered, and more bumpy.

It seems that everyone is tacit, and no one proposes to park and set up a camp. Maybe everyone wants to continue rushing to the center of Lop Nur Lake as soon as possible and leave this strange place as soon as possible.

Now, there is only a little light left, and it will be inconvenient to set up a tent if you don’t stop.

I used the walkie-talkie to call everyone to park.

The convoy stopped in turn.

This day is April 23, 2013. Think about it, what are you doing?

We set up a tent in Lop Nur.

I, Wei Zao, Pawan, Zhang Hui, Xu Ergo, Haowai, Bubu, and Juye were all busy, and the dance dance was still not involved with us. She moved things from the car alone.

Meng Xiaoshuai went to find Bai Xinxin again, and the two of them stood under the RV and said something.

After a while, Bai Xinxin came over and said to me: "Boss Zhou, I was a little offended just now, so I apologize."

I said, "A small matter. Don't bother with the beauty there, go cook."

Bai Xinxin went to make a stove.

I have been the so-called "top leader" in several media outlets, and at that time I needed to do things. After years of hard work, I finally stopped leading the team, finally I could ignore people, and I was as idle as a farmer in winter, but I organized this travel team on a whim...

What I want to say is that I really don’t want to be the person in charge.

I let go of sheep in the Gobi grassland and mastered the life rules of sheep, which is very simple. But people are the most complicated and the most tiring to manage people.

After dinner, everyone went back to the tent one after another.

The wind blew and the tent was shaking.

There were shaking emergency lights in the gaps between several tents.

Only the lights in the RV are orange, which feels more like the home and is very warm. I think like a child that after successfully traveling through Lop Nur this time, I also want to buy a RV, preferably bigger than Bai Xinxin's.

Soothing music even sounded in the RV, as well as the laughter of Bai Xinxin and Meng Xiaoshuai. I don’t know what the light bulb of Yiwu is doing.

Before I got into the tent, I looked into the wilderness. At the slightly higher point, there was a figure standing motionless.

Who is that?

I walked over slowly and finally saw clearly that it was Bubu.

She was looking at something with her telescope.

I said, "Bub?"

She seemed to be startled, put down her telescope and turned around: "Boss Zhou."

I smiled and said, "It's dark, what can you see?"

"My telescope is night vision," she said.

I said, "Let me see."

She handed me the telescope.

I took the telescope and suddenly became a little scared. Through this telescope, would I see that the wasteland is densely filled with people?

I slowly lifted the telescope and looked into the distance - the originally dark Lop Nur did show shapes, the image was black and white, a little blurry, very much like a silent old movie. I saw the salt-shelled ground in the near distance, and there was darkness in the distance.

I returned the telescope to her and said, "Are you afraid of sleeping alone?"

She smiled and said, "I'm afraid of multiple people."

I also smiled: "The wind is strong, don't catch a cold."

She said, "Well, I know."

I said, "I'm back and go to bed early."

She said: "Okay."

After I left, she raised the telescope again.

I returned to the tent, and the juice had already penetrated into the sleeping bag, revealing only a baby face.

I only saw her shoes, not her clothes.

She said, "Where is your guitar?"

I said, "In the car."

She said: "You sing for me. When I hear the guitar, I will think of my time in college."

I said, "No problem."

She said, "By the way, the string is broken."

I said, "Play like four strings."

She said, "Really?"

I said, "When I was a child, I tried hard to practice guitar, and I used my right hand to beat the rhythm on the speaker and played the melody with my left hand. Do you believe it?"

She said, "I don't understand musical instruments."

I said, "You wait."

I got out of the tent, took the guitar from my car, then got into the tent, sat opposite the juice, and started to adjust the strings.

Without a string of a and b, it is really hard to play. I tried to find the chords with four strings and sing them gently—

I came from the Northeast Juelundi Town. The residents were kind and unpredictable. The ice and snow were lonely. The sky was blue and white. The sunflowers were blooming all over the world with golden brilliance...

She kept staring at me.

After singing a few songs, I said, "I haven't fallen asleep yet?"

She said: "You are in danger."

I said, "What?"

She said, "Nothing. Thank you for your song."

I put the guitar next to the sleeping bag, turned off the emergency light, and then got into the sleeping bag.

After a while, someone came to the door of our tent and asked softly: "Have you sleep?"

Liu Xueer said, "Aunt Bubu?"

Bubu said: "It's me. I want to ask Boss Zhou something..."

I got up and said, "What's the matter?"

She said: "Didn't you pick up a video recorder the day before yesterday? I want to see it."

I quickly thought about it and said, "I can't charge it, it's already scrapped."

Bubu was silent for a while and said, "Oh... I'm disturbing."

I heard her step on the salt husk and leave our tent "crunch".

In the darkness, Liu Yuer said, "Are you lying?"

I said, "Hmm?"

Liu Yuer said, "I was in your car at that time and saw you seem to be charged."

I said, "It's full."

Liu Xueer said, "Did you see what's inside?"

I said, "It's just some videos that have nothing to do with us."

Liu Xueer said, "Then why don't you show it to Bubu?"

I said, "What happened to those people...I don't want to cause panic to everyone."

Liu Xueer said, "I want to see!"

I said, "No."

Liu Xueer said: "Zhou Dedong, I must watch it!"

I said, "I told you that I am not allowed to call me Zhou Dedong again!"

Liu Jinger said: "Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern Zhou De Eastern! What's wrong?"

I lost my temper. After a while, I said, "What if I don't show it to you?"

Liu Xueer said: "Then I'll go out and tell everyone that there is a secret in your video, and then let everyone vote, should you disclose this video?"

I said, "You are so annoying..."
