Chapter 1105 Mirage

Chapter 1105 Mirage

The sky slowly darkened, and the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the endless desert, rendering the whole desert red, like burning clouds in the sky, which was really beautiful.

More than 40 kilometers away from Zhuang Rui and others camped, there was also a camel team. Six camels arched together, surrounding four people in the middle. There was also a small bonfire with an iron pot on it, and the water inside was boiling.

That's right, this is the place where Erdan camped. It may be because this desert was still an oasis a hundred years ago. The groundwater is relatively rich. In a radius of 20 or 30 meters, it is full of green desert plants.

The place of settlement found by Erdan is richer than Zhuang Rui's, and the alkali content is not high. People and camels can drink it directly, and the conditions are much better than Zhuang Rui's.

The night soon came, and the desert became more and more silent. In addition to the "crackling" sound of the flames licking the dry wood, it was the breathing of several people around the bonfire.

There was not much dry firewood on the camel. The second egg carefully added a chopped dry firewood, shrugged his nose greedily, and smelled the smell of meat in the pot.

"@@¥#%..."

Suddenly, a voice interrupted the silence of the desert, but Nakagawa, who was sitting by the bonfire, said a word to the translator.

"Brother Erdan, Nakagawa asked me to ask you, have the people behind you dumped it?"

Nakagawa is a well-known entrepreneur in Japan. If he is busy with his work, he will exercise less. Nakagawa is also in his forties. He has been tossing in the desert for two days, and his face is full of fatigue.

In the past two days, they have been going around in circles in the desert, and some places have even walked back. In Nakagawa, no one should be able to keep up.

"This... I'm not sure. What does Mr. Nakagawa mean?"

The 50,000 yuan promised by Zhongchuan has not been obtained yet. Of course, he dare not guarantee the ticket. Otherwise, when Mengzi and others appear, he is afraid that Nakagawa will lose the money.

"Zhongchuan said that he felt almost done and wanted to find the ruins of the ancient temple as soon as possible. I said, Brother Erdan, find us early and took the money and left. What are you lingering here?"

Although Yan Xiaowei's family is average, he has never suffered this kind of hardship since he was a child. If it hadn't been for the sake of the rich reward, he would have quit, and there was no respect for Nakagawa in his words.

"Hey hey, Brother Wei, let's go around for two more days. Does this little devil also feel that the money is worth it?"

Erdan laughed and then said, "Since he said it, Brother Wei, tell him that we will go to the quicksand area early tomorrow morning. It's not far from here, and we can arrive at noon..."

This is what Zhongchuan asked for. Erdan suddenly lost his psychological pressure. Even if Mengzi and others catch up, he also has an uproex. The money that should be given to him is not less than one point.

"Mr. Man, Nakagawa said, I'll ask you tomorrow..."

After hearing Yan Xiaowei's translation, Zhongchuan looked at Professor Man and muttered a few more words. It is impossible for Zhongchuan to forget that his father was buried in this desert, and now he is still dead. He doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of old Zhongchuan.

"Let Mr. Nakagawa rest assured. Let's move the supplies tomorrow and let a camel walk in front of us. In case of running sand, we can also react..."

Professor Man nodded, which was about the lives of several people. He did not dare to be careless at all. As a desert expert, he was most aware of the harm of drift sand.

After the broth was boiled, the two eggs extinguished the firewood. The desert was desolate, and any supplies had to be saved. As night fell, several people after dinner got into their tents, and the desert became silent again.

Unlike Erdan and others who lie down and fall asleep, Zhongchuan can't sleep over and over again. When his father died, he still had very little, and he would go to the place where his father disappeared tomorrow, which gave Zhongchuan an indescribable smell in his heart.

......

"Go, pack up your things..."

At five o'clock the next day, Mengzi shouted to let everyone get up and pack up. The desert was under the scorching sun during the day, and people living here would take advantage of the early morning to walk a little more.

Zhuang Rui and his party had a good rest yesterday. In addition, today is the last day to follow the Erdan Camel Team. Everyone seems to be in good spirits.

After packing up, the sky was already bright, and the desert was full of yellow sand, floating a few traces of fog. Mengzi looked at the sky with a little worry and said, "The weather is not right. Maybe there will be a strong wind. Let's find a flat place..."

The strong wind in the desert is very terrible. Often a gust of wind blows, and the hill-like sand dunes will turn into flat ground, and the originally flat sand bed will suddenly stand into a sand mountain.

So when there is a strong wind, it is best to find a flat place to hide under the camel, which is the only way to avoid the wild wind in the desert.

After hearing Mengzi's words, Zhuang Rui looked back and forth and said, "Otherwise, let's stay here..."

The existence of cactus in the place where they are now shows that it has not been covered by wild sand, and it should be a relatively safe place.

Mengzi waved his hand and kept looking at the fog in the desert. Suddenly, his eyes straightened a little and shouted, "Well, you are lucky enough to see a mirage!"

"A mirage? What the hell is that?"

Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard the words, but he immediately lost the meaning of questioning, because Zhuang Rui also saw the scene in front of him. Suddenly, he was stunned. A piece of air-dried meat in his hand fell to the sand and didn't know.

"Sea... Mirage?"

In the desert in front of Zhuang Rui and other camps, the originally scattered fog became thicker, and in the middle of the fog, there seemed to be many scenes, which were difficult to distinguish in a daze.

Everyone was attracted by Zhuang Rui's exclamation. In fact, there is no need to point it out at all. As soon as you look up, you can see the desert in front of you. It seems that there is a city standing out of thin air, and people shuttle through it.

The legendary fantasy appeared in front of them, and everyone was shocked by the scene. They stood still and looked at the mirage in the distance.

Zhuang Rui reacted quickly. He took out his backpack from the impulsive camel, took out a small camera from it, turned it on and pointed at the modern city in front of him.

A mirage is a natural phenomenon formed by the refraction of light, also referred to as a mirage. It is a virtual image formed by the refraction of light reflected by objects on the earth through the atmosphere. Scientists call it an optical illusion.

You know, this kind of scene is extremely rare, and even fewer can be recorded. Of course, Zhuang Rui will not let go of this opportunity.

"Well...that's a car, damn it, and the sea. I really want to jump in and take a shower..."

After about three or four minutes, the original vague scene gradually became clear. The towering buildings were displayed in front of the crowd one by one, and the speeding cars seemed to be like a movie picture, speeding by in the distance in the air.

Zhuang Rui looked at the scene in front of him. Next to the modern high-rise buildings on both sides of the highway, the busy ferry shuttled between the north and south. Fishing boats, cruise ships, sightseeing boats, 10,000-ton ships and their whistles intertwined with a wonderful prosperous scenery on the sea.

The more Zhuang Rui looked at it, the more familiar he became. The more he looked at it, the more familiar he became. He couldn't help swearing: "Isn't this... Isn't this Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong?"

It is not ancient now, and it is impossible to make a scientific explanation for the mirage, but the probability of seeing the scene you are familiar with in the mirage is very small, which makes Zhuang Rui feel like winning the grand prize.

Zhuang Rui once stayed in a hotel next to Victoria Harbour for a few days. He was extremely familiar with the scenery there, and he could guarantee that he would never be dazzled.

"Yes, it's Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong, Brother Zhuang, I found that as long as I follow you, I can see any miracle..."

Peng Fei, who was next to Zhuang Rui, was also muttering to himself. He was even more familiar with Victoria Harbour than Zhuang Rui, because he once stole a luxury cruise ship worth hundreds of millions of yuan from here, and it took him two days to step on it.

"It's so beautiful. Is it... Hong Kong?"

Although it is not the first time to see a mirage, he still looks at the beautiful scenery in the distance without blinking. From his birth to now, he has been to Dunhuang as farthest. Although he knows Hong Kong, he has never been there.

"That's right, it's Hong Kong, Brother Mengzi. If you have a chance in the future, you can go and have a look..."

Zhuang Rui said Mengzi's words, but he didn't move his eyes for a moment. Although the picture was familiar, it was definitely two completely different feelings when he saw this kind of scenery in Hong Kong.

"I must go and have a look in the future..."

Mengzi nodded. In ancient China, he regarded the mirage as a fairyland. The First Emperor of Qin and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty led people to Penglai to find a fairyland, and sent people to Penglai many times to seek a panacea.

I'm afraid it's the ideal of every desert person to go to the fairyland in person, so when he heard Zhuang Rui's words, Mengzi also made a decision in his heart that after leaving the desert this time, he must travel to Hong Kong.

The mirage in the distance lasted for about 40 minutes, and the fog slowly faded.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew through the desert, and the yellow sand fascinated everyone's round and sour eyes, but when they opened their eyes again, the mirage in front of them had completely disappeared, with only a blue sky and endless desert.

"Grandma, why is it so vague..."

When Zhuang Rui saw that the mirage disappeared, he quickly picked up the camera in his hand to check it, but he was disappointed to find that the clear scenery in his eyes was ambiguity, and he could only barely distinguish some images.

However, if you can see this spectacle with your own eyes, even if there is no harvest on this desert trip, Zhuang Rui is satisfied.

: I'm a little busy these days. Keep it updated. Well, try to write as much as possible. Friends, please forgive me. RO
