When she woke up, she woke up completely. She saw the microphone on Bo Yan's chest and the camera seemed to be spinning. Her hair was messy and blowing up, and her clothes were wrinkled. Xia Siyu was still a little self-conscious about being a beauty. She quickly grabbed some clothes to cover herself up: "Quick, quick, quick, I haven't washed my face yet! Get out quickly, you won't be allowed in until I tell you."
Boyan went out with a smile. Before going out, he helped her cover the camera with her clothes.
Xia Siyu quickly changed her clothes. After changing, Bo Yan was still outside and said, "The hot water is boiled. Come out and wash your face and mouth."
This group was the only one with hot water last night, so I had already scrubbed my body and washed my hair, and now I can still comfortably wash my face with hot water. Xia Siyu took the towel and looked around: "Hey, these unloyal people, let's leave quietly. Don't force me to drive all night today, I just want to be the first to reach the finish line."
Bo Yan just smiled, set up a stall nearby and continued cooking.
It's past ten o'clock now, just in time, breakfast and lunch can be taken care of at once. If you are hungry while rushing in the afternoon and there is still naan, it can be regarded as afternoon tea.
The fresh food sent by the seniors can be used as ingredients just right. I threw in the half pack of hot pot ingredients left yesterday and put the ingredients in. It was just right.
The other groups had already gone far away, and they were still eating hot pot leisurely in the same place. Although the people in the program team have become accustomed to the free attitude of this pair, they can't help but remind them: "Teacher Bo, Teacher Xia, when do you think it is a good time for us to go on our way?"
Xia Siyu also knew how to eat and sleep without saying a word. She swallowed a huge mouthful of beef before saying, "Why are you so anxious? We haven't even finished the meal yet. After we finish eating, we have to pack things away and wash the pots and dishes, right?" And after eating, we have to rest for half an hour. We are not here to participate in a competitive show. Isn't this a 'Romantic Journey in the Desert'?"
The other party was speechless and had no choice but to walk back.
The two of them ate hot pot for an hour, and then Xia Siyu went to pack her luggage. Boyan still kept the water he used to wash vegetables and face before, but now he used it to wash dishes and pots, and also used the waste water to put out the fire. In the desert, water is very precious. If it is not necessary, it is best not to waste it.
It wasn't until after twelve o'clock that the two of them set off. At this time, the two groups of senior and Zhou Weiwei had been walking for nearly four hours. Even Han Yifan and the others had been walking for three hours and were currently taking a break.
Moreover, these three groups were not very good at cooking, so they ate casually. They bought sandwich bread and the like. They ate a little before continuing on their way.
On the other hand, these two people may have worked hard to save money in the first two episodes of the show, but this time they seemed the most leisurely.
But as soon as the two started walking, it was exactly as Xia Siyu said. They walked for seven hours and didn't stop until the sun went down.
They are now still behind the previous three groups by ten kilometers at the longest and five kilometers at the latest. Boyan started preparing dinner again. The fresh food from before was almost gone, but there was still instant noodles. Boyan cooked two bags, and each person took some naan, broke it into pieces, and ate it simply with the instant noodle soup.
They were the only group, but they had to hurry, so Bo Yan also analyzed the situation with Xia Siyu.
In one and a half days, they traveled 20 kilometers less than originally planned. If this continues, we may not be able to reach the location before nightfall tomorrow.
Although the food and water sources are sufficient, arriving last means that their way to the final location may be cruel.
—Another thing is that he checked the weather forecast. Today and tomorrow, there may be strong winds and the temperature will drop.
Strong winds in the city are just a nuisance for pedestrians when walking. Unless it is a typhoon or tornado, it is not worth it. But in the desert, wind means blowing sand and dust and losing your direction.
They follow the national highway and won't get lost for the time being, but what happens when the national highway is gone? Even with a guide, it's a bit dangerous.
Xia Siyu thought for a while: "Then go to bed early tonight and get up early tomorrow."
Last night I went to look at the stars and the moon, which wasted a lot of time. There is no need for that today. The two boiled another pot of water, scrubbed their bodies, washed their hair and faces, and used the used water to clean the pots and put out the fire. Just after cleaning up, it seemed that the wind was blowing. Although the wind was not strong, on the originally clear night, the stars seemed to be shyly hidden in the wind and sand, making it difficult to see clearly.
As the wind picks up, so does the temperature. Fortunately, Xia Siyu had rented a military coat before, which came in handy now.
In order to get up early and set off tomorrow, and since it was too early to sleep now, the two of them packed their luggage and planned their route.
Their plan was to walk to the end of the national highway at noon, have lunch there, and then start walking on the sand dunes without signposts in the afternoon. The guide will not care about your direction unless you seriously deviate, so the last 20 kilometers depend on Bo Yan's sense of direction. If you accidentally deviate from the route, it is possible that 20 kilometers may turn into 40 kilometers.
Xia Siyu is a road addict, and Bo Yan can only bear the burden of finding the way. However, their task in the morning was also very heavy and they had to walk more than 40 kilometers.
Xia Siyu is lazy when she can, but if she wants to be serious, she can do it like she did before catching a plane. There was no further fighting that night, and we rested after the discussion.
The next morning, the two of them also got up at seven o'clock. Instead of having a leisurely breakfast like yesterday, they ate naan and water and set off directly.
The wind is strong today and the road is very dusty. Fortunately, we can go along the national highway without getting lost.
The two of them were on their way in a hurry, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, they happened to meet the previous groups.
They also rested at the end of the national highway. Xia Siyu and Boyan had just arrived, and the previous groups were already preparing to set off.
There were no road signs, so everyone had to show their talents. Most groups were equipped with compasses and set off in similar directions.
Boyan didn't have a compass, but he wasn't in a hurry. He sat down and replenished some water and food. When it was time to set off, Xia Siyu asked him, "How should we go."
Bo Yan said with determination: "Wait a moment."
He didn't have a compass, but took his cell phone and opened it.
The phone comes with a compass, so you can tell at a glance the approximate direction when looking at the phone. Although buying a compass doesn’t cost much, it still costs money, okay? They only had three hundred yuan, and they spent it all. How could they still have money to buy a compass
"Let's go this way." Boyan got on the camel and led Xia Siyu in the direction.
There are no national highways, and there are endless sand dunes here. It was quite refreshing at first, but after staying here for two days, I became a little tired of my eyesight. However, what he didn't expect was that after walking for a while, Boyan lowered his head and looked at his phone: the compass was malfunctioning.
