Chapter 852 (2/2)
She is dressed in black today, wearing a black scarf and sunglasses. It's so hot outside that she will be exposed to the sun in the desert. She must protect herself.
Gu Zhennan is in white shirt and black pants. He also wears a pair of sunglasses. He looks very cool.
”Wait a minute!” Bashar drove the car outside and stopped at the door. Guo Xiang and Gu Zhennan got on the car together.
Sure enough, it's Bentley, and it's quite new. It has full air conditioning. There's also a small refrigerator in the car with water and drinks.
”Guest, you can drink the drinks in the car.” Bashar said, ”I'm going to the desert today. I brought more water. Just drink.”
”Thank you!” Guo Xiang nodded. The guide was very considerate and seemed to be experienced.
Looking at the sun outside, Guo Xiang took out sunscreen and painted some on his hands.
In fact, sunscreen is the most effective physical sunscreen, so she wore long clothes and trousers, a headscarf and sunglasses. However, she didn't wear gloves on such days. Unexpectedly, she added a little sunscreen just now, otherwise she must have a clear black and white color on her wrists.
”Rubkhari means one quarter of the open space in Arabic. It is named because it accounts for one quarter of the entire Arabian Peninsula. It is one of the largest deserts in the world.” Bashar explained while driving. Of course, he spoke English.
In these Middle East countries, the first language is Arabic and the second language is English. Most people can speak English.
”And it is the largest mobile desert in the world.” Bashar said.
”What is mobile desert?” Gu Zhennan asked.
”Because of the monsoon, the sand dunes will move and change when the monsoon comes. The sand dunes here may flow to the other side. The desert you see this time may be different next time, so it is called mobile desert.” Mashar said.
They both nodded. That's what happened.
”It will take us some time to start from here. It is the junction of Riyadh, Mecca and Asir, so it is a little distance. The Jeddah fountain we are going to tomorrow is in Mecca province. We can stay there at that time. ”
”When you arrive in Mecca Province, first go to Jeddah to see the fountain, and then go to Mecca holy city to see the holy meeting. That's just right!” Bashar said.
Guo Xiang nodded. It seems that they are all lined up. Only when they are so familiar can they know how to arrange the best.
When we arrived in the rubkhari desert, other tour groups also led us.
On the edge of the desert, there is a small place similar to a post station. It is received and some local specialties are sold.
Guo Xiang got off and saw the endless desert, which was very spectacular.
But it's really hot. The sun is hot above, and the sand on the ground seems to have been baked on the stove. The heat is pressing.
”The color of the desert here seems darker?” Guo Xiang said.
Some desert sand is relatively white. The sand here is golden yellow, and some even feel a little red.
”You feel right!” Bashar said, ”our desert is rich in iron oxide, so some places are red, but most of them still look golden...”
”It's like laying a layer of gold sand.” Guo Xiang said with a smile, ”just like you Saudi Arabia, there are treasures everywhere.”
Bashar smiled, ”yes, maybe oil is buried under the desert.”
”Do you want to ride a camel?” Bashar asked, ”there are camels over there. I can rent two for you.”
”Good!” Guo Xiang nodded. Since he came, he must ride.
There are also some foreign tour groups over there who also called more than a dozen camels. Everyone was surprised to see the camels.
Bashar and another man led one end, ”we happen to be with that tour group. It's better to have more people. The weather in the desert will change at any time. It's safer to have more people together. ”
”Good!” Guo Xiang nodded. It's better to have more people in such an unfamiliar environment.
