Chapter 270 Unexpected things (seeking the moon(1/2)
Looking at the endless desert in front of him, Yu Qingyang thought of the sea.
The sea may be endless as far as the eye can see, but it gives people a completely different feeling.
Standing on the beach, you feel relaxed and happy, and the sea breeze can blow away all the troubles in your mind.
Standing on the edge of the desert, looking at the endless desert, it is yellow, quiet, thick, and the endless yellow sand spreads to the end of the sky. There is only one word that gives people the feeling: hot!
There seems to be a fire in my heart, burning from the inside out.
It's so damn hot!
This was Yu Qingyang's first feeling after getting off the car.
It's about 40 degrees in the campground, and it's probably 47-88 degrees here.
The sand under your feet is even hotter, and you can feel the temperature of the sand through the thick soles of your sneakers.
It feels as if you are stepping on freshly rolled asphalt concrete pavement.
The paving temperature of asphalt concrete is about 150 degrees, and the asphalt concrete that has just been rolled is also 70 or 80 degrees.
In order to verify his feeling, Yu Qingyang bent down and touched the sand lightly with his hand, and then retracted his hand instantly. The temperature was higher than the asphalt concrete that had just been rolled!
Hot!
It's eighty or ninety degrees. At this temperature, you can scald an egg if you bury it in it.
"ah……"
Xia Xue put her hand to her mouth, making a trumpet shape, and shouted loudly into the distance.
"ah……"
Xia Xue didn't seem to feel the heat or fatigue, and she kept shouting over and over again.
Yu Qingyang wore sunglasses and looked at Xia Xue with a smile.
Although Xia Xue is several years older than Yu Qingyang, in Yu Qingyang's eyes, Xia Xue is like a little girl who has not grown up.
Sometimes he is well-behaved and sensible, sometimes he is clever and weird, and sometimes he is overbearing.
Although Yu Qingyang saw the desert for the first time, he was not as surprised and novel as Xia Xue.
After all, the mental age is already over forty years old.
It's really not like Xia Xue, shouting with excitement.
“Yangzi, it’s so spectacular! It’s my first time to see a desert!
Come on, take some photos for me!
Show it to my mother when we get back!" Xia Xue had vented enough and turned to Yu Qingyang and shouted.
"Okay!" Yu Qingyang turned around and got into the car and took out his camera.
Sun Jian and others had already consciously stayed away.
If it weren't for Yu Qingyang and the others basking in the sun, they wouldn't have looked good on the bus.
Several of them had already hid in the car.
As straight men, they really don't understand what's so interesting about this desert except yellow.
Even wearing sunglasses makes my eyes dazzle.
Xia Xue put on various poses for Yu Qingyang to take pictures.
After taking seventy or eighty photos, Xia Xue was satisfied and stopped posing.
His face was red from the sun and his forehead was sweating, but he still looked through the photos taken by Yu Qingyang with great interest.
"Yangzi, I didn't expect your photography skills to be so good!" Xia Xue was very satisfied with the photos taken by Yu Qingyang.
In the photo, Xia Xue's figure is more prominent and her legs are slender.
Yu Qingyang smiled, this was a little trick that almost everyone knew in later generations.
If the person taking the photo squats down and the camera is lowered, the person in the photo will appear taller.
As for photography technology, in his previous life, Yu Qingyang spent nearly 20 years photographing hidden processes and construction video materials on construction sites.
Even if you haven't studied it specifically, you can still figure out some tricks after twenty years of photography.
"What a pity, it would be great if there were camels! It would be very interesting for us to ride camels and play in the desert!" Xia Xue said with some unfinished thoughts after seeing the photos.
“It’s not easy to ride a camel. I’ll ask someone to buy some camels later!
Let you ride as much as you want!”
"real?"
"How can I lie to you? When I get back, I will ask Chen Xiang to buy some camels from the nearby tribe!
When we go back in the evening, let's eat camel meat first, and then we'll buy the camel back in a few days, and then let you ride as much as you want!" Yu Qingyang said with a smile.
"Eating camels? Isn't it too cruel?"
"Why can't you eat it?
What is the difference between camel meat and beef and mutton?
Here in Ajigeria, camel meat is much cheaper than beef and mutton!
Moreover, hump is a famous dish in the Manchu-Han banquet. There are many hump in the supplies delivered today. Let Lao Wang practice his skills later!"
"I heard it said in cross talk, but I have never eaten it!" Xia Xue is not the kind of person who is pretentious. She no longer worries about why she wants to eat camel, but is actually a little eager to try it.
"Shall we go back? It's too hot here!
Now hurry back and arrive at the camp just in time for dinner!" Yu Qingyang smiled and greeted Xia Xue to get in the car.
There is no road from the camp to the desert, but there is Gobi as far as the eye can see, and the ground is relatively flat.
With the Hummer's off-road capabilities, it's the same on any road.
Just a little slower.
It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived, and I was delayed here for an hour. I went back just in time to have dinner.
"Mr. Yu, take a look, is this wood turned into jade?" When Yu Qingyang was about to get in the car, Sun Jian and others came over carrying a piece of wood that looked like rotten wood.
When Yu Qingyang was appraising wood jade the day before yesterday, Sun Jian and others were also there.
Of course I know about wood turning into jade.
Yu Qingyang stepped forward and knocked, making a crisp sound.
It is definitely petrified wood. As for the degree of jade, you have to peel off the bark on the surface to see it.
"Found it there?"
"Over there! We just found it when we were exploring the environment!
Go past a sand dune, and there are many such petrified jades under the sand dune!"
"Let's go over and have a look!" Yu Qingyang didn't mention the return trip.
"Yangzi, what is wood jade? Is it just this rotten wood? Why is it called wood jade?" Xia Xue pulled Yu Qingyang and asked curiously.
Rotten wood, what Xia Xue said was absolutely correct. This looked like a piece of rotten wood, or a rotten wood that was nearly half rotten. It was extremely ugly.
"Wood jade means wood has been buried underground for hundreds of millions of years and turned into fossils!
The reason why it is called wood jade is because some fossilized wood, after being carved and polished, is as delicate as jade and retains the natural texture of the wood!
So we call this kind of petrified wood jade!" Yu Qingyang explained to Xia Xue while following Sun Jian and the others towards the sand dunes.
Climbing up the sand dune, at a glance, there are more than a dozen petrified jade sticks of different shapes and sizes lying under the sand dune.
Standing on the sand dune, looking from a distance, there are many petrified wood jade spots, half buried in the sand.
"Put it here first! When you come back to transport the sand, you can just take it back with you!"
"Mr. Yu, if you put it here, it might be buried in the sand tomorrow!
What if someone takes it away..."
"Haha, it's okay!
Except for us Chinese, no one treats it as a treasure!" Yu Qingyang laughed and patted Sun Jian on the shoulder.
The climate of the desert is constantly changing. Now the desert is as quiet as an untouched girl. Maybe it won't be long before it becomes violent like a tyrant.
After a sandstorm, these petrified wood jade will be buried by the sand, but at the same time, other petrified wood jade will be exposed.
Therefore, Yu Qingyang is not worried at all. These wood jade have been buried and cannot be found!
There are as many treasures in the desert as there are in the sea.
Just hunting for treasure in the desert is no easier than hunting for treasure in the sea.
Back to the car, just like when we came here, Yu Qingyang and Xia Xue were in one car, and Sun Jian and the other five were in one car.
Driving in the Gobi Desert is definitely a novel experience.
