Chapter 19: Codename Crystal Slipper(1/2)
After leaving Lhasa, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually left behind, and the world returned to a vastness.
Those who have been to Tibet or dreamed of going to Tibet every day will think that Tibet is full of extremely beautiful pure lands—blue sky, white clouds, snowy mountains, boundless grasslands, gem-like holy lakes, herds of cattle and sheep, devout worshipers, beautiful girls, and lamas under the red cassock.
These images with a strong sense of painting have become representatives of Tibet. When Tibet is mentioned, these images will automatically appear in people's minds.
This is just a wishful thinking of tourists. There is always a huge gap between ideals and reality. The real Tibet can be summarized in two words - desolation.
Tourists flash by at various tourist attractions, and it is difficult to understand how Tibetans survived for generations in high-altitude areas with such harsh climate conditions.
The car ran in the wilderness for most of the day, and the road gradually turned into a small road, and as it drove, there was gradually no road ahead - or there were roads everywhere, and the vast wilderness was an endless road.
Zi Yang asked Su Rui: "Do you bring any high-end equipment this time?"
Su Rui smiled with understanding and said, "No, everyone brought is all ordinary scientific research equipment - don't worry, all the equipment we brought this time has been registered with the relevant departments."
Zi Yang sighed heavily: "This, what's there to worry about?"
This joint expedition is much more "regular" than last time, and I believe that the black technology thing will not be brought again. Professor Su and his friends know the interests. This kind of high-end and sophisticated equipment with national defense level must not be disclosed to people with an identity like Jin Guoqiang.
After looking at the navigation device in front of the car, looking at the wasteland outside, Zi Yang said, "Did we drive the wrong car? Did Jin Guoqiang draw the wrong route? Such a desolate place, let alone the German treasure team, even Tibetans would not be idle and come here to visit, right?"
Su Rui smiled without answering, and held the steering wheel steadily, looking confident and the mountain man had his own tricks.
Zi Yangbai leaned on the seat boredly. This road was really hard to walk. His bones were sore all over his body, and he couldn't even sleep.
Qingwen secretly observed the back seat through the rearview mirror. The calm girl leaned her head lazily against the car window, staring at the wilderness scenery outside the window with her eyes blankly.
As the Jeep was bumping, Qingwen's head rammed on the car window.
Zi Yang is so worried about her. Is this girl having a brain problem?
This expedition was completely a blind trip, at least for Group C.
Previously, Su Rui had briefly informed him and Lao Wang of the itinerary through a walkie-talkie. There was no established route, no specific goal, only a general direction. There were Tibetan settlements and undeveloped scenic spots on the route, but more were barren and unmanned areas.
To be honest, in a trance, Zi Yang really felt that this was a travel benefit.
This is also good, I am happy and relaxed, anyway, I have a beauty accompanying me. As I thought about it, I turned my head to look at Su Rui's silhouette.
Su Rui did not wear a Tibetan robe like she did last time today. She wore a black turtleneck sweater. The tight sweater set off her sexy figure, and any man would be moved by her majestic breasts.
Since meeting, Zi Yang has never had the "opportunity" to take a good look at Su Rui. Now there is a rare opportunity, and he can finally carefully admire the goddess's style from a close distance.
Su Rui's black hair was casually combed in a bun and loosely placed behind his head, giving him an inadvertent natural and chic manner.
I have been in Tibet for a while, Zi Yang and Lao Wang's faces have been tanned and red, and they look dirty, making them look like they have never washed their faces.
But Su Rui's face was still fair and smooth, and several clusters of beautiful hair were lying unruly on his temples, emitting a wild beauty.
Suddenly, a shy pink color appeared on her fair face. Su Rui looked ahead with his eyes, pursing his lips as if he was smiling - he was discovered!
Zi Yang, who was watching the goddess without turning his eyes, suddenly realized his disobedience, turned his head with a blushing face and a thick neck. He happened to meet Qingwen's gaze in the rearview mirror, and Qingwen's pale face was full of disdain and contempt.
"laugh!"
A cool air appeared on Qingwen's mouth, and he rolled his eyes and stopped looking at him.
"Ye, can you talk with your feelings? I thought you were a mute!" Zi Yang turned back and fought back without being outdone, thinking to himself: You, an unconscious light bulb, are so embarrassed to despise me!
"Swish!" The calm woman had another disdainful expression.
"Hey, don't say it, it looks pretty good when you roll your eyes!"
"Get out!" The calm woman actually spoke!
...
For a moment, the small jeep was filled with the swords and shadows of Zi Yang and Qingwen. Although they stopped talking, a murderous intent echoed in the air.
Su Rui saw this strange situation in his eyes. When he saw Zi Yang's angry look at the corner of his eyes, Su Rui forced himself to smile.
"Hey! Leader, when will we stop and rest? I'm hungry!" Lao Wang said through the walkie-talkie.
After driving for most of the day, the night had already arrived unknowingly, and there seemed to be a layer of gray mist between the sky and the earth.
After Lao Wang's reminder, everyone felt hungry one after another.
"Look for a wide area in front and let's park and camp." Su Rui said.
Finally, I could get off the car and breathe a sigh of relief, Zi Yang thought to himself.
The woman with disheveled hair and dead looks like a dead woman in the back seat made him feel like she was on her back and felt very uncomfortable - if she hangs a TV frame on her head, this guy is no different from Sadako.
I suddenly thought of the midnight bell scene, and my shoulders trembled and I couldn't help but have a cold war.
After parking in an open area, Lao Wang packed up a few dead trees and lit the bonfire. Everyone gathered around the bonfire to start preparing dinner.
In the off-staff team of Group C, A Chong basically rarely speaks - he rarely speaks nonsense, and every sentence is simple and concise, "leave", "stop", "eat", "well"... the language is terrible.
Xiao Hei is a mute and never opens his mouth except for eating.
Qingwen basically didn't say anything... except asking Zi Yang to "get out".
Lao Wang said something alone, and he had a strong order. He was too much and not nutritious.
The normal people are Zi Yang and Su Rui.
So, you can imagine this scene, on the endless wasteland, these six people with different styles formed a paradoxical picture.
The only thing that the six people have in common is that they can't cook.
Fortunately, Su Rui was foresighted and brought compressed biscuits, canned food, and some military ration packs. The advantage of this thing is that it is ready to eat immediately and can fully supplement the various nutrients needed by the human body.
However, because it is located on the plateau, human taste has been slightly affected. Overall, the taste is still good, so Lao Wang killed three big bags at once.
Su Rui prepared ten people for half a month's reserve, mainly considering the appetite of Lao Wang and Xiao Hei, and had seen their excellence in the Gobi desert before.
However, depending on the consumption tonight, it would be great if these rations could support them to eat for ten days.
Although the land cruiser is very large, it is also full of stuff. In addition to food, drink, and fuel, there are clothes for several people, tents, essential medicines, etc.
Fortunately, their jeep can also hold a lot of things, otherwise the car would have been filled with food and drink just for them.
After dinner, it was dark and several scattered wolf howls came from a distance. Everyone surrounded the bonfire with stones, set up tents next to them, and began to camp on the grassland.
Lao Wang, who had been excited for a day, climbed into the tent early and drove for a day, and was indeed a little tired.
They brought a total of 3 tents. During the meal, Zi Yang planned a tent with Lao Wang, Su Rui and Qingwen and A Chong and Xiao Hei.
Everyone expressed silence on this arrangement and no one expressed objections.
After dinner, Achong climbed onto the land cruiser silently, sat on the co-pilot and adjusted his chair, and lay down.
Holding his hands on his chest, his face buried deep in his hood, I don’t know if he is sleeping or looking.
After riding with A Chong for a whole day, Xiao Hei seemed to feel A Chong's unappropriate cold air, and he climbed onto the back seat of their jeep and lay down.
Qingwen regained her facial paralysis expression and did not be polite to Su Rui, so she crawled into the tent assigned to them.
In total, the utilization rate of the three tents is only 33%. Even so, the grassland still seems a bit "crowded".
Zi Yang came back from ease and felt that the current situation was very awkward. His tent was snoring loudly. Not to mention going in and sleeping, it was a problem whether he could sit or not;
There was no room for sleep in both cars, so it was not appropriate to go up by yourself;
The other two tents do not belong to me, so I feel embarrassed to get in rashly.
I hesitated for a long time, and it was neither standing nor sitting nor sleeping. The world is so big, but I have no place to stand.
Seeing Su Rui facing away from him, sitting in front of the bonfire, dazed alone.
Zi Yang walked over and sat down next to Su Rui.
"Why don't you sleep?" Zi Yang thrust into the tent with a paralyzed face.
"Why are you not sleeping?" Su Rui raised his chin towards Lao Wang's tent, and the two of them smiled knowingly.
"Since you can't sleep, let's talk?"
Su Rui shook his hair and said mischievously, "Okay, then let's talk about two dollars!"
This little girl seems to watch CCTV a lot in the United States!
"After saying that, let me be honest, what kind of conspiracy did the organization send you here?"
"Hey, why are there another conspiracy? Do you have paranoia for being killed?"
"Okay, don't hide it. If this event is really as you said, you just focus on participating, and all your discoveries and gains belong to China. Why do you need to send a team specifically? You just need to send the information here."
"And I think the team arranged by Professor Su is also very grand. You and your brother are led by the team themselves - the old Jewish man is your brother's teacher, so it should be very difficult, right?"
"You are indeed a dark person and always think of others as bad as you."
Su Rui was robbed by Zi Yang and didn't know how to refute it, so she had to lower her head and pout and pretend to be angry - she sometimes felt helpless about Zi Yang's sometimes smart and sometimes confused personality.
"Haha, it's not that I'm dark, it's true. You can't hide it from me, Jin Guoqiang, and even more so from Professor Zhang."
Zi Yang remembered the experience he had in the military hospital after returning from Damo, and couldn't help but sneer: "Actually everyone knows it well, but they all have their own ulterior motives and their own interests - unlike us, we have no desires and no desires, and we only joined this team with the selfless dedication to contribute to socialist construction."
Zi Yang is shameless and it is dark.
"It's not that simple, right? You have also secretly fetched a lot of socialist wool? The batch of operations that Jin Guoqiang gave was also spent a lot of money? Don't blush, don't explain, I can see the account details." Su Rui was unwilling to be always prevailed by him, so he decided to scratch his pain.
Zi Yang couldn't help but muttered: "The little girl's family is good and not learning bad. She has been humble and courteous for five thousand years and does not learn the traditional virtues of respecting her seniors. She learns so many vulgar slang."
