v2 Chapter 342: my friend (1/2)
At this moment, when the sun was the most poisonous in the day, the temperature in Gobi had already exceeded forty degrees. Zhang Heng put his backpack on his head to shield it from the direct sunlight. However, this move was not very useful. After a while, the skin exposed on his sleeves was tanned, the heat wave was transpiration, and the sight in front of him was distorted.
As a last resort, he had to find a backlit rock wall, sit down and rest for a while, wait for the sun to be a little bit, and then set off again. During this period, there was a race whiptail lizard and him hiding in the same shade for the summer.
In the Apollo training camp, Zhang Heng also trained in the desert survival section, but that was in the case of a supply package. NASA still did a good job in this aspect. Basically all emergency situations were considered, and anti-inflammatory drugs were also taken into account. Yes, but this time it was different. Zhang Heng was thrown into the Gobi by the game system. From dressing to carrying equipment, he didn't adapt to desert survival.
However, since the track was found, Zhang Heng originally planned to extend the track for a while and wait until the train came over. Then he picked up the train and reached the next settlement. However, I ’m not sure if he was unlucky. Two have passed so far. For many hours, he hadn't seen a train and could only continue on his own legs.
This time he walked for almost four hours, and the water in his body was evaporated quickly. Not only did the corners of his mouth begin to crack, but the exposed calves and arms were also slightly red and swollen, which meant that he had been slightly sunburned.
Fortunately, at this time, he could also see the small town in the distant sand.
Zhang Heng's hanging heart finally let go.
Like most small towns in the west at this time, the small town in front of which he did not know the name was also built by railway. Railroad tracks cross the town center. On one side are dwellings, on the other side are pubs, trick houses, casinos and the like. Entertainment area. This is because drunk people tend to make trouble easily, so it is necessary to isolate these carnivals.
But when Zhang Heng walked closer, he found some unusual places.
The most important point is that it is too deserted.
Although there were dwellings with open doors along the way, Zhang Heng couldn't see a figure inside, and the things were completely removed. Zhang Heng walked into a room and found that the ground was full of sand and dust. Its owner apparently has not been back for a long time.
The situation of other nearby houses is similar. The only difference is the bar in the town. Zhang Heng saw eight horses outside the door.
Considering that this is likely to be the only place in the town with people, he did not hesitate to open the door to the bar for too long.
Different from the empty town outside, the bar is very lively. Four men are yelling at each other while playing poker in front of a table, and a drunk guy is lying down on a table by the window. On the other hand, the lame bar owner counted the hidden wine on the wine rack, and on the other table were two slightly quiet young men, one wiping his rifle and one playing. With a dagger.
When Zhang Heng walked in, it was like someone pressed the mute button, and the noisy bar suddenly quieted down.
Zhang Heng can understand their thoughts. After all, his 21st-century dress looks a bit too trendy in this era. Coupled with his complexion, it is hard to be unobtrusive.
