The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is a vast and sparsely populated place.
In many cases, in a deep place, the distance between adjacent counties and villages is nearly 500 miles.
If you walk on foot, you will not know that you will have to reach the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Long Kui had been exploring the road ahead.
After walking for almost an hour, Long Kui came back and pointed at a unique wind-eroded mountain in the distance and said whiningly.
We looked over there and found that the mountain was really strange.
If I had to describe it, it looked like two huge mushrooms standing on the Gobi Desert.
Two wind-eroded mushroom rock mountains, nearly thirty meters high, and the two rock mountains were connected.
There happens to be a recess in the middle, which is just right for shelter from wind and rain.
"We'll just go there and make do with it for one night."
Captain Xie said.
Some strangely shaped and magnificent rock mountains are often found in deserts and Gobi deserts.
They have experienced countless wind erosions and turned into unique and unique landscapes.
Many adventure-loving people and photography enthusiasts will attract them.
Although it is a cold night, there seems to be no more suitable place to live than two wind-eroded mushroom rock mountains.
The group of people quickly walked to the crack under the rock mountain.
The cold wind immediately became much lighter, but it was still cold, and they were still trembling when they walked on the ground.
Long Kui quickly picked up some dry firewood and weeds, and lit a small bonfire for everyone to keep warm.
Tired and groggy, he fell asleep.
There were only two darlings of the night sitting by the bonfire, unable to speak, one big and one beast, with big eyes and small eyes, boringly staying under the night sky, keeping vigil for us.
I slept drowsily in the cold wind all night, not knowing whether I was awake or asleep, but finally when the sun rose, a trace of warmth shone on my body.
The sun was extremely bright, and it was cloudless early in the morning.
It felt a bit like a southern city at noon.
I woke up from the hot sweat all over my body.
When I woke up, I found that my clothes were all covered in sweat, and I felt very uncomfortable.
The small bonfire in front of me was extinguished at some point, leaving a pile of charcoal-black scorch marks there.
Not long after I woke up, most of the people woke up one by one, their heads covered with sweat and they woke up directly from the heat.
"Good guy, this groove is facing the place where the sun rises.
No wonder I said it's so hot," Grandpa sighed.
From the moment the sun rises, the sunlight shines on us in this gap without any blind spots, just like baking in a microwave oven.
"It's freezing at night, and it's still freezing hot during the day.
There's no way we can go this way," Big Head muttered and cursed.
"You're just talking nonsense.
Get up and take a look at this place.
It feels like a wild land."
Bald Ye kicked Big Head directly.
When I stepped out of the gap and looked towards the road ahead, I found that the vast land here was all brown.
The wind and sand in the distance swept in and rolled up among the low trees.
There were some towering trees on the Gobi Desert everywhere on the land.
The strange rocks here have their own characteristics due to wind erosion all year round.
However, it is such a place that makes us a little bit at a loss.
We have no way to go and no store.
What is even more frightening is that we do not know where we are in the depths.
Apart from us, no one could be seen, and there were several vultures circling high in the sky early, as if they were waiting for us to starve to death before flying down to enjoy our delicious food.
"Damn it, I'll shoot it later, roast it and eat it," Big Head scolded.

"Your sister, you just know how to eat.
Vultures can't eat, okay?
Even if they can, you can't even chew their meat."
I looked at the big head with contempt and said.
"Why" "Vultures are huge, and they eat carrion all year round.
Their muscles are harder than humans.
They can't be burned by fire, can't be soaked in water, and can't bite.
So you'd better give up this idea."
I said.
"It's as if you've eaten it before.
You're right."
Big Tou curled his lips and said.
"It's mentioned in the book, but I think Erha seems to be very interested," I said, and then I looked at Erha looking up at the blue sky and eyeing a few vultures in the sky.
"Erha, I guess you won't like the smell of them.
It's useless to look at them.
These birds can't eat them," I said to Erha.
Everyone showed signs of hunger.
They had not eaten or drank a drop of water for a whole day and night.
It was indeed too painful to be in the vast desert.
"Let's go, follow the road, there will always be towns," Captain Xie said.
"I'm afraid that by the time we get there, it will be vultures' dinner."
Big Head complained.
Everyone laughed bitterly, and had no choice but to hit the road.
There was no shade in the Gobi, so we just walked forward staring at the hot sun.
We were sweating like rain, which made us thirstier.
The morning in the Gobi was much hotter than we imagined.
It was almost like the Chinese time in other places.
We couldn't imagine how hot it would be at noon.
If you look down at the earth from a high altitude, you will find that we are walking on the vast Gobi land.
There is only a small, straight road leading to the distance of the sky, as if there is no end, and there are vast brown soil on both sides.
Long Kui and Erha liked the darkness, and as soon as they walked in the bright sunny day, they suddenly became listless, as if they were deflated rubber balls, following the team with a spiritless and empty look.
"We can't go on like this.
There is no transportation, but we must find a water source," Captain Xie said.
"Where is the water here?"
Datou pursed his lips and said.
Everyone's lips were very pale, as if they were smeared with white ash.
The saliva in their mouths was extremely sticky, and they would choke when speaking, which was very difficult.
By almost noon, the sun in the sky was baking the earth like a scorching fireball.
Far away from the ground line, twisted gas could be seen rising from the ground, as if space was distorted.
You can imagine how big this is. hot.
During this period, not a single vehicle drove on this road, which made me just want to scold my mother.
Why build a road without cars?
Isn’t this a waste of resources?
At first we planned to stop a car on the road and hitch a ride into the town, but our fantasy was shattered.
There was no car and not a hair in sight.

"It's a plateau and it's a scorching sun again.
Do you think we'll have hallucinations and see mirages or something like that?"
Big Tou muttered feebly in my ear.
"My lips are broken, so I'd better say less to save energy."
I said.
"It's even more uncomfortable not to speak.
It's lifeless and sweltering," Datou said.
"That hallucination is impossible.
There are so many rocks and mountains here, and the refraction of light is easily blocked.
It is too difficult to form a mirage.
Unless it is in the desert."
Captain Xie said, trying to popularize the knowledge of light and shadow to Datou
