Chapter 1112 Young master
Yan Shao is in trouble. Even though he digs the hole with all his strength, the orchid roots are too deep into the ground. According to visual inspection, the depth is more than 27 meters. It has been dark since dawn. Shifen was busy until nearly two o'clock in the morning before finishing the work. He was also very tired, so he simply stayed in the huge pit to recover his strength.
Student Le Xiao rushed to the huge pit dug by Yan Shuai and looked down. OMG, the pit is deeper than the well, like a mine. Looking at Yan Shuai’s flashlight from top to bottom, the brightness is like looking up. The feeling of seeing the moon in the sky.
The pit is a T-shaped pit, and there are several large steps leading into the well.
She jumped down the first concave step, then jumped down again, and jumped six steps in a row before reaching the bottom of the pit. She reached out and pressed the head of the handsome boy who was begging for praise with a sad face: "Good boy, you are good, you can be called a little expert at digging pits." "
Waiting until the little Loli finally remembered him, Yan Xing sat there miserably, looking at the little Loli with pitiful eyes as she silently complained about her grievance for leaving him alone for several hours. He was very happy to be touched on the head. But what the hell is a good boy?
The handsome young man who was so troubled that his face was as bitter as a bitter melon squeaked in a dull voice: "My medicinal diet is gone, and I am not happy."
A grown man giving back a baby? Le Yun felt cold and made a promise: "Although there is no extra reward, for your contribution, I will make you a coconut stewed pig's trotters to supplement your nutrition." "
Really?" I heard there is a reward. , the eyes of the handsome young man are like stars in the sky, twinkling with bright soft light.
"Well, please move over, I'm going to start working." Le Yun rubbed her hands, grasped the handle of the knife and swung the knife to chop the langen.
Yan Xingchi jumped to the side and stood close to the wall of the bunker, watching the little loli chop a few times, then he went on to do the work. After a while, the knife fell with his hand, and a section of the orchid root was cut off.
Le Yun hugged Langen and carried it out of the pit. She put it aside first, then jumped into the pit. She waited for Yan Shuaiyan to cut off a section of Langen and then carried it out of the pit. She cut off four sections of root in a row, and then applied medicine to the section of Langen. Climb out of the pit and fill it back with sand.
After backfilling the excavated sand and moving some sand from other places to cover the hole, Little Loli asked Handsome Yan to return to the camp first while she did the aftermath work. Young Master Yan did not hesitate and took the first step with a flashlight. , he first returned to the place where he set up his tent and ran to the river to take a bath.
Classmate Le Xiao, who was lagging behind, waited for Yan Yan to go away, moved the centenarian orchid roots back to the space, picked up all the fine orchid roots on the sandy ground, leaving no suspicious traces, and then erased the nearby footprints. , walked around some other Welwitschia trees for a few times, and then left with confidence.
When she returned to the camp, Handsome Yan took a bath and sat in the tent to dry her hair. She took clean clothes and slipped to the river to take a bath. She felt brand new. She did not sleep when she returned to the tent, but took out a thick notebook to write an observation diary.
Little Loli's hair was not dry yet, but she didn't care. Yan Xing couldn't see it, and covered her head with her face towel: "Little Loli, your hair is not dry. It's easy to catch a cold because the temperature is so low. I'll help you wipe it." Wipe it."
Angola is very hot, but it is a plateau area with a big temperature difference between morning and night. Even in summer, the heat at noon is unbearable. You have to cover yourself with a thin quilt at night, otherwise you will wake up from the cold in the middle of the night. The temperature difference between day and night is even greater in the desert. , sometimes the temperature is close to freezing at night.
Her head was covered with a towel, almost blinding her eyes from the notebook. Le Yun turned her neck away: "Don't make any noise, I'm busy with business." "You're busy, I'll help you
dry your hair." Little Lolita Instead of getting angry and throwing towels and scolding people, Yan Xing succeeded in his evil plan. He gently held the towel around the little loli's head and wiped her hair gently, very gently and carefully to avoid pulling her hair.
The little Loli didn't refuse. He acted as a temporary barber's apprentice. He helped the little Loli wipe her hair seriously and rubbed the hair on her little head. He was full of joy. The little Loli's head was also very cute and well-behaved. The quiet little loli is cuter.
He carefully helped the little Loli wipe her hair until it was semi-dry. The towel was also moist. There was no other dry towel. Yan Xing reluctantly finished the work and quietly came closer to see what the little Loli was writing. She was recording the desert day and night. Temperature changes, and plant responses.
She wrote in great detail, and he almost wanted to rub her head and praise her, saying, "She is such a good student who studies hard." Of course, he had the guts to do it, but the little loli touched his head and said he was a good boy. Her mind said that her good boy might have to eat fried chicken feet and meat.
Le Yun was too busy. She was really busy taking notes. Anguo and Naguo were only separated by a river. There were slight differences in temperature and air content in the desert, as well as slight differences in soil. As for whether it was because they were close to the border river between the two countries. The reason for being so close is not yet clear.
She finished writing down her observations during the day and night the day before. When the sky became slightly brighter, she wrapped up her notebook, packed her luggage, and ate dry food. When the weather became brighter, she broke camp and headed for the front.
In the thin morning light, the plants and animals in the desert plain are not yet ready to welcome the sun. Many nocturnal animals are quietly dormant, and the vast desert is very quiet.
The handsome young man and the short-haired girl walked forward in the morning light, making slight noises as they stepped on the sand. Sometimes they would frighten the insects hiding in the grass, and sometimes they would frighten a small lizard and make it crawl into the sand desperately. The little girl was so naughty that she even frightened it by digging out sand, causing the little animals to run away.
The handsome young man expressed that he was... helpless. He understood that the little loli was digging plants all the way. She came to Anguo to dig plants. But, why did she always like to tease small animals and insects?
Girls don't hate bugs the most, but little lolita is on the contrary. She enjoys catching bugs and lizards. In fact, catching lizards is also acceptable. What kind of magic is catching rattlesnakes like catching earthworms?
Yan Xing was frightened by the way little Loli grabbed the Desert Horned Viper, and he often had crowds of grass-mud horses running wildly in his mind. He felt that when he went back, he would have to find someone to fill him with a few bowls of chicken soup for the soul, otherwise his heart might be damaged. overwhelmed.
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the temperature is rising little by little.
Classmate Le moved forward as if playing. It took her and Young Master Yan half a day to bypass several rocky mountains and reach another desert valley. The edge of the basin full of sand and gravel was a semi-desert grassland, and the valley was full of crawlers. Welwitschia that resembles an octopus.
Large and small Welwitschia lie irregularly on the sand. The whole place is like a botanical garden. There are car marks in some places, which are proof of "visit here" left by the sightseeing vehicles.
Finding the valley with the largest number of Welwitschia, Le Yun's eyes were brighter than the morning star. Wow, there are so many octopuses that it would take ten days and ten nights to dig them all!
Her heart was racing because of the excitement, red clouds appeared on her fair face, her whole body seemed to be flying, and there was wind under her feet when she walked.
"Little Lolita, there are so many Welwitschia!" It doesn't look so shocking from a distance, but when you look closer, you can feel the number of Welwitschia. How many years did it take for it to grow into such a big family?
Yan Xing finally understood why the little Loli came here. The number of Welwitschia in Anguo was considerable, more than that in Nanoland. With such vast tracts of plants, even if ten or eight of them were dug up, they would not be affected. The propagation of its family.
He didn't dare to dig up a few more trees for storage, because there was a tourist bus on the other side of the valley, and several people were taking pictures in the Welwitschia field. Even if they were far away, they were afraid of the wind leaking the secret.
Classmate Le was filled with joy and did not care about the meaningless words of the handsome boy from Yan University. He carried the camera and took pictures wildly. While taking pictures, he walked towards the edge of the inland direction.
Young Master Yan also pretended to take a camera to take pictures. The two of them did not meet the tourists on the sightseeing bus. They walked through the edge area and then walked inland. After walking for several miles on the desert plains and grasslands, they finally reached a river with water in the dry valley. part.
Anguo has a heavy rainy season and a light rainy season. November is the light rainy season. There is no shortage of rain, but the rainfall decreases from the east to the southern desert. It rains in other places, but it still rarely rains in the desert. Therefore, in the rainy season When it rains during the light rainy season, there is water in the wadi
to find the water source. They stay in a shaded place nearby until the hottest time at noon has passed. The two of them go separate ways. There is no prey nearby. Young Master Yan has no place to do anything. He only looks for Some hay and dry branches washed down from the upper stream were used as firewood for cooking at night. The rest of the time was spent in the camp recharging energy for a big fight at night.
Classmate Le stretched out his hands to plants in all directions. When the sun went down, he dug up two large bundles of plants. He called it a day and cooked rice with Handsome Yan. After eating, he headed to the basin where Welwitschia grows before it gets dark. March.
The small team of two people marched quickly to the Welwitschia Valley. It was not completely dark yet, the surroundings were gray and deserted, and the temperature was relatively low, so they had to wear autumn clothes.
Classmate Le took the free handyman to wander among the Welwitschia group, and went to the edge area to designate one for him to dig. Welwitschia is a rare species, and tourists come to the desert to watch it every year. Many Welwitschia are iconic coordinates. , is absolutely untouchable, and can only be targeted at targets in inconspicuous locations.
The little lolita gave up her work. Yan Xing put down his backpack and took out the tools to start work. He dug a Welwitschia until around two o'clock yesterday. Today, even if it is possible, he can only dig one at most, and he has to dig it in the morning. work.
Assigning a Welwitschia to trip Handsome Yan's feet, Xiao Le's classmate wandered in the other direction, observing as he walked, and caught the little fox a mile and a half away from Handsome Yan, and sent him to work. Then choose the target by yourself, select a Welwitschia and put an apple or a fried August. The little fox can find the place when he smells the apple fragrance.
After selecting several Welwitschia trees, I also started digging at a medium-sized orchid tree at the very edge, digging slowly. Since Little Fox was an expert at digging holes, she didn't have to work too hard and just stayed idle.
The little fox who unknowingly sold himself to a little girl as a coolie, based on the great principle of perfection in everything, worked hard to be a good anti-trap worker, emptied most of the sand under a Welwitschia tree, and spit out part of the sand. Then go find the second tree designated by the little girl.
When I found a place, I saw a big red apple. I helplessly weighed my beard and started working hard. I spent all my efforts to clear the surroundings of the Welwitschia tree, uprooted a large orchid tree, put it aside, and filled the void with sand.
The little girl likes to play with her whims. Putting an apple as a mark means digging up the whole tree. The apple is round, which means peace and "completeness". The whole Welwitschia tree is perfection.
There is a waist-shaped fruit on the third tree, which means digging a semicircle, that is, only taking out the orchid roots.
For the sake of his own appetite, the little fox was very active and dug one tree after another. After digging out the soil under the ninth Welwitschia, he finally stopped working and dug out a total of four whole ones.
He went back to fill the hole. The little girl was already cutting the roots of the second orchid tree. He filled the deep hole of the first orchid tree and waited outside the second hole. After the little girl climbed out of the hole, he filled the hole with sand again. Soil, erase some traces.
One person and one fox collected all the excavated centenarian orchid roots, filled the hole, and crawled back into the space. Le Xiaoxiao helped the little fox bathe and nibbled snacks and gold for him. Then she returned to nature and ran to check Handsome Yan's body. What are the results.
Young Master Yan really wanted to perform well, but the work was too arduous. No matter how hard he tried, he could not achieve the desired results. He didn't finish the work until half past one. He was in a depressed mood. He didn't want to go out and embarrass himself. He wanted to bury himself in a pit. .
He squatted in the pit and licked his wounds sadly. He waited for more than an hour before seeing the little Lolita. Looking at the light from the ground, he was resurrected with full health. If the little Lolita abandoned him, he would He stayed in the pit until he was discovered during the day and had the Anguo people cover him up alive.
The little Loli still remembered him. He didn't want to be buried in the pit. When the little Loli jumped into the pit, he quickly stood up and said with a handsome face: "Little Loli, add this one, I will dig it out." There are two trees. If we dig one more tomorrow night, we will have three trees."
"No more digging tomorrow night, we will evacuate in the morning." Le Yun ignored the big face that came close to her and looked at the Welwitschia root. Its roots were deep. It was more than twenty-four meters deep, flat in shape, and its roots had become old. It could only live for another hundred years at most. She helped it cut off half of its roots and improved its physical condition. It would not be a problem for it to live for another eight hundred years.
"Ah, why are you leaving so quickly? There are so many here. If you dig ten or twenty trees, others won't be able to find them." There are so many Welwitschia trees, why don't you dig up a few more?
"If there are no accidents, there should be rain at midnight tomorrow night. If the medicine applied to the wound of the Welwitschia I cut has water seepage, the efficacy of the medicine will be compromised. If the root of the tree is infected, it may cause the death of the Welwitschia." Le Yun said
. Explain, while picking the position of the knife: "Besides, I also dug two trees myself, plus the two trees you dug, if there is no particularly serious and rare disease that requires the use of Welwitschia to cure, the amount I save is also It’s enough so that we won’t have to dig up Welwitschia roots again within five years.”
"That's it." Yan Xing's mood suddenly dropped. The little loli was leaving, which also meant the end of the trip. He and her would soon part ways, and it would take a long time for him to see her again. In fact, he He really didn't want to be separated, he wanted to stay with her every day.
He didn't say anything anymore and helped little Loli cut orchid roots, carry them, fill holes, and prepare the site. He carried his luggage and left first. Le Xiaoxiao fell behind. He collected the centenarian orchid roots and took care of the traces before catching up with him. Stay away from the crime scene.
After dawn, the two took a helicopter to pick up people in the desert and went to Angola's desert park for a walk before returning to Namibe, a coastal city with an international airport. As the little loli predicted, in the second half of the night, a heavy rain hit the southern part of Angola. There are showers from east to west. Although the rainfall becomes smaller in the desert areas, the dry desert plants also enjoy the moisture of the rain.
