Zhang Cheng ate a cactus fruit and his mouth was full of sweetness. It was not just sweet but sweet. Generally, candies will not be so sweet.

In the afternoon, I continued to look for it. Catherine discovered a crater with a diameter of more than ten meters. After stopping, Katherine got out of the car and looked at the crater for a while and expressed her professional opinion: "This is an old pit, not a new pit. We can see this pit now because of the long-term drought environment nearby, and there are no meteorites at the bottom."

Zhang Cheng asked: "Have you been found?"

Catherine shook her head: "Not necessarily, meteorites are not good kids. It is not uncommon for a meteorite to jump on the ground and smash two or three craters. Even using a metal detector to find meteorites is not an easy task."

Zhang Cheng thought about it for a moment and realized that the meteorite did not hit the ground directly at 90 degrees, but was similar to the way a tennis ball landed.

Stephanie: "But it should be around here. Everyone scattered to find out if there are other craters."

"Here." Zhang Cheng shouted after a while. This time, Zhang Cheng found a small meteorite crater from the direction he was responsible for. If he was not careful, it would be a small pit in the wasteland.

Catherine and Stephanie rushed over. After taking a look, Katherine said, "The bottom of the pit is 25 cm."

Zhang Cheng waved the folding shovel and began to dig. After digging for more than a dozen times, the shovel encountered a hard object. Zhang Cheng dug it out with his hands to show everyone that it was a yellow-brown irregular metal block, weighing about five or six pounds. If no one said it, it would be hard to imagine that this was a meteorite.

After pouring some water to clean the meteorite, Stephanie observed it: "It should be an iron meteorite. It depends on the appearance and weight. It is not a big problem to sell it for two or three thousand US dollars."

Katherine: "This piece is considered a big one in the meteorite family. Many of the meteorites we found are not half as big as this one."

After saying this, Zhang Cheng's psychology is much more balanced.

The value is really not high, but the commemoration is of great significance. Zhang Cheng said: "In the past, people often used meteorite iron outside the sky to cast magic weapons. Look, how about I buy this to cast a sword?"

Stephanie: "No problem, internal price. Two thousand."

Thinking of his future, he also had a weapon of iron from the sky. Zhang Cheng became more and more excited as he thought about it: "I have thought of the name of this sword. It is called: The Sword of Women's Savior."

The woman’s sword of salvation in these five words Zhang Cheng said it in Chinese, and Katherine asked: “What does it mean?”

Zhang Cheng explained in English: "Literally, it means a woman's sword to save the world."

Katherine: "I like this name."

Good luck on this meteorite is almost used. I continued to search for meteorite craters that day and found two meteorites. But they were only the size of a thumb belly. Catherine said that such miniature meteorites are actually the most common. Many meteorites will break before or after landing, which undoubtedly greatly affects the value of meteorites.

While driving in the desert, in addition to appreciating the drought-resistant plants that Nevada has grown in the rainy days after getting money in recent years. Some small animals like rat, rabbit, lizards and others are often frightened and fled. If Nevada hadn't spent a lot of money in the desert, it would have been more desolate.

Suddenly, a white wild goat also joined the frightened group, and Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up: "There is supper."

Before Stephanie could stop the car, Zhang Cheng opened the door and jumped out to chase the goats, chasing them for a hundred meters, because the terrain here is more suitable for goat movements, and the distance has not been shortened much. Zhang Cheng took out the largest meteorite he found during the day, used all his strength, and slapped the head of the goat in the distance.

The meteorite drew an arc in the air and flew more than a hundred meters to hit the head of the goat. After being seriously injured by the meteorite, the goat still ran tenaciously for several hundred meters before falling to the ground. This made Zhang Cheng, who had been a little injured before he wanted to skip class. However, it was too wasteful to kill him.

Zhang Cheng dragged the goat back, Stephanie and Catherine parked the car and decided to stay here overnight. First, he used sulfur powder to clean up the nearby snakes, insects, rats and ants. These little things, especially rattlesnakes, can sometimes kill people.

Zhang Cheng went nearby to find some dry camel grass and the trunk branches of Joshua tree as fuel for the bonfire at night.

At night, Zhang Cheng ignited the bonfire with the withered Joshua tree trunks and dry camel grass, and then peeled the wild goat for a barbecue meal by the bonfire.

Because the seasonings carried by the three of them are simple, although they are original goats, the barbecue tastes average, far less delicious than the roasted goat made by chefs from five-star hotels in Las Vegas. During the barbecue of the three of them, some roasted goat meat was inevitably wasted.

While gnawing on the roasted lamb legs, Catherine said: "Tomorrow we will continue to look north and go back to Reno when we get to the road. Recently, there are a few fat sheep in Las Vegas."

Stephanie also chewed the mutton and asked Zhang Cheng: "Zhang, I haven't seen it. What gambling projects do you like?"

Zhang Cheng thought for a while: "Mahjong."

Stephanie Catherine nodded: "It turns out to be a traditional Chinese."

In fact, what Zhang Cheng thought of was not the kind of Chinese mahjong they thought, but a branch evolved after the Chinese mahjong was introduced to Japan, and it was simply called strippers.

A long time ago, an adult game played by Zhang Cheng was a Japanese undressing mahjong on a red and white machine. Although the tape was later borrowed by a classmate and twisted it, it was borrowed countless times and never returned it.

Americans also play mahjong. The earliest group of American mahjong friends were American soldiers who came to China to support the War of Resistance during World War II. After World War II, they brought mahjong culture to the United States to take root. Mahjong culture itself has no borders. Now there are mahjong plaques and mahjong textbooks for sale on all continents of the world. Moreover, the names such as eating pizza and listening to Hubiao and Wanfeng are also authentic.

Katherine: "Thank you for accompanying me to Las Vegas for playing cards. In return, when I arrive in town, I will play mahjong with you."

However, in addition to Nevada, playing mahjong in the United States is just a game of playing bridge and playing chess and card competition. However, whenever you go to Nevada Mahjong Hall, there are many places in the streets and alleys. The view in Nevada is that there are no people on the streets because people are either at home or in casinos.

Compared with casinos in Nevada, there are very few schools and factories (although there are many American companies registered in Nevada, there are quite a few factories due to water shortage).

The real small casino in Nevada is the mahjong hall, which only has a few slot machines and mahjong tables for gamblers to play. Each mahjong hall only costs some tea and water fees. Mahjong friends in California, especially San Francisco and Los Angeles, don’t like scoring methods, and often make an appointment to drive to the mahjong hall in Nevada during the holidays.

Zhang Cheng added some dry fire to the bonfire and said, "Okay, I'll find the rule book for you to recite first."
