nd wanted to sell my kidney.I wouldn't sell a kidney, even if I were dying. It's better to die than live with the consequences. People say that if you sell a kidney, you won't be able to have children...Don't even mention riding camels! I hadn't even ridden a horse back then. Our guide, Lao Zhang, led us each to choose one. He told us there was a way to pick the right camel.

He said that once a female camel has given birth, the water sac in her body shrinks. This kind of camel is no longer suitable for going deep into the desert and should just take walks on the edge of the desert.

Setting off from the Camel Garden for the Alashan Desert, our expedition chose six camels to form our camel caravan. Having extra camels served two purposes: firstly, they would help pull luggage and equipment, and secondly, they acted as backup in case of emergencies.

At noon, under Lao Zhang's orders, we all changed our clothes. Douzi wrapped his head with a headscarf and said awkwardly, "Why do we look like robbers in these outfits"

"""

"If you can't speak, then don't. You're the one who's robbing people," Zhao Xuanyan skillfully rode on the camel, tugging at the reins.

"The girl's posture is quite standard, have you ridden before" The guide Lao Zhang smiled.

"My house used to have a horse farm," Zhao Xuanyan said proudly, "I learned how to ride horses when I was little. I feel that riding a camel and a horse are not much different, they're quite similar."

>Our camel caravan arrived at Highway 67 in the evening, around 8:00. We are already on the edge of the Alashan Desert here. If you cross the highway and head into the desert, we will officially be in Alashan.

Following Old Zhang's advice, we pitched our tents along the highway. That night, we ate hot food around a bonfire. Old Zhang pointed to the darkness behind us.

"At our caravan's pace, we should reach the first stop, Muzi Fen, tomorrow evening."

“

I drank some water and asked, "Zhang Shu, don't you need a map to find your way There are no roads in the desert. Don't lead us astray."

"""

"Hey, you're right. Growing up in Alashan, I never knew this. Maps don't work here. Often, last month I marked and drew a map, but the next month when the sandstorm comes, the landscape changes, and everything becomes invisible."

>

Also, you should be careful when you sleep at night here, as there are often cobra snakes around. Be careful not to let a cobra bite you.

">

According to his plan, starting from the highway, passing through Mòzi Fēn, Bēi fēng Pō, Yuèyá Quán oasis, and Pābā Sand Dune, they would reach the area where the Hutu people usually live. Last time he took Gan journalist there, they encountered a Hutu tribe near the Yuèyá Quán oasis.

I didn't dare to sleep soundly at night; we had to take turns watching over the camels as they were let out to graze, in case anything happened. My shift was from two to four in the morning. Qin Xingping was before me, and he hadn't let Tou and Zhao Xuanyuan keep watch.

Around half past eleven at night, I got up on time to change shifts. Qin Xingping was just watching the fire and smoking, as if he had something on his mind.

"Qin Ge, why don't you take a rest I can watch for now."

"

"

He turned his head and glanced at me, "I'm fine, you can sleep a little longer. Come on, have one," he tossed over a cigarette.

Sitting on the floor, I lit a cigarette and took a puff. It was a bit harsh on my throat.

"Yunfeng, haven't you found a girlfriend yet Have you thought about when you want to get married"

“How dare you, Zhang” I chuckled, tapping the ash from my cigarette. “We’re people who wander aimlessly, who knows when we might end up in trouble No girl would want to be with us, so I've decided that after thirty-five, I'll think about it again.”

Qin Xingping pointed to the tents over there, "How about that girl To be honest, she's quite pretty. I think you two would be a good match."

">

"Zhao Xu Xuan" I said, Qin Ge, don't joke around. She and I are just friends. Zhao Xu Xuan is a rich girl.

"Hmph, not necessarily. Could Miss do something as dirty as grave robbing I think she's more like a servant girl trapped in a rich woman's body."

"

Chatting around the bonfire, Qin Xingping suddenly stood up.

"Who!" he shone his flashlight directly toward the northwest.

"What's wrong, Qin Ge" I hurriedly asked as I stood up.

Qin Xingping came back and forth, shaking his flashlight. "Eh I just saw a shadow, didn't I How did it vanish in the blink of an eye"

”

"Black shadow Where" I also opened my flashlight and looked around.

"There's nothing here, Qin Ge. Did you just see things"

Qin Xingping retracted his flashlight and smiled, "Perhaps I was sleepy just now, seeing things."

Then I'm going back to sleep. Just call me if anything happens.

"

"

Okay, Qin Ge, get some rest.

I watched him slip into the tent.

Half an hour later, I added more wood to the fire and stared into the flames.

Suddenly, my head hurt.her, Chen Xiaohei, didn't inherit Ma-Yan-Chen’s abilities, and you, Hong Jie, are even more frail.” The old man shook his head as he looked at Hong Jie."""Get your hands dirty.The old man said softly...
