Pet King

In the deserted villages of China, families and households often live close to each other, so that what happens can be taken care of each other, but the Bedouin shacks are relatively scattered-it is understandable, After all, even the poorest Chinese villages are mud houses, and here are all thatched cottages on all sides. If you are too close, you can smell a fart next door at night, let alone those shy things ...

There is no electricity, no generator, no WiFi, no running water, no books, no newspapers. Even if there are few people who can read, there are no convenient places in modern society. What else can the sun do? Of course it is doing what everyone loves to do.

The consequence of not having a small umbrella is that there are a lot of children in the tribe, from the newcomers to the older ones, running around dirty and carefree.

The quiet little girls are two or three knitting handicrafts together, and the smaller ones are playing with colorful glass beads.

Every man here often has three or four wives, one or twenty children, and raising children is as free-range as raising sheep.

A few teenagers like Salim in the tribe did not see a few. It may be that while the tribe was nomadic near the Siwa oasis, they ran to the town or farther to work in Maheru Port to earn money.

Except for the children running around, most of them are middle-aged people and older people over 30 years old-although in other places, 30-year-olds are not middle-aged, here, the harsh environment and long-term labor It is very old, and people in their twenties look similar to those in their forties.

Salim led Zhang Zi'an to one of the shacks and whispered, "I just asked my cousin just now, it seems that just before we came, there was another wave of guests who just arrived here. As soon as he came in, he went straight to the chief, and didn't know what to do. "

Zhang Zi'an nodded, the several off-road vehicles parked at the village entrance must be another wave of guests.

I don't know what these uninvited guests are doing. I hope that there will be no extravagant branches that will affect the action of the scientific expedition team.

But he vaguely felt that things would not be so clever, and he was afraid that what might happen was what happened.

When he came to a shack, Salem didn't knock, because there was no door to knock. The shack was made of date palm branches and reed stalks, and only three sides were built. The roof was covered with palm leaves. The rest Only one rag hanged on one side as the door.

Salem nodded to the largest shack in the tribe, which meant that the chief's house was over there. Even the shacks of the chiefs are at most only larger than the shacks of ordinary people, and the trunks or pillars made of mud bricks make the shacks stronger.

The chief's shack door is more spacious, with no curtains, and people can be seen faintly inside, but because the indoor dark room is bright, it is hard to see who it is.

Salem yelled into the house in tribal dialect, and Zhang Zi'an couldn't hear what he shouted. He only heard the words "Nabari" sounded.

Zhang Zi'an guessed that Salim probably said that he was going to bring the guest in. If there is something that should not be done during the day, stop first and put on his pants.

Of course I'm kidding.

After speaking, Salem lifted the curtain and went in to signal Zhang Zi'an to come in.

Because Egypt is dry and hot, no matter how hot and sunny it is outside, it is still cool after entering the house, and the ventilation on all sides has become an advantage at this time.

Inside the room was a middle-aged man with an unknown age of 40 or 50 years old, smoking a hookah while smoking.

In addition, there is a middle-aged woman with a blue-and-black robe all over her body. She can only see her eyes and her hands that are showing up. She sat cross-legged on the blanket and skilfully pressed the dough with a rolling pin. A pit was dug on the ground next to it, and the surrounding area was covered with stones. A red flame burst into it.

There were two three or four-year-old children crawling around the blanket, staring at Zhang Zi'an with bright eyes.

Several large plastic buckets for water dispensers lined up by the side of the house. They contained liquids of different colors, including water and camel milk, as well as milk wine.

Zhang Zi'an estimates that this middle-aged man is probably the legendary tribal guide in Salim's mouth-Nabari, and his wife and children.

Salim murmured something and introduced Zhang Zi'an to Nabari.

Nabari put down the hookah and stood up, looked at Zhang Zi'an, reached out to Zhang Zi'an, and said in English, "Welcome! Friends from China!"

Zhang Zi'an noticed that Nabari still wore a good-looking solar-powered watch on his wrist. This may be the most technologically advanced thing in the tribe. In addition to English, which is more standard than most Egyptians, it is obviously seen Of the people, Salem said that he had taken the expedition or tour group into the desert more than once and returned safely, which should be true.

Bedouins are very enthusiastic about hospitality. When meeting between men, they not only need to shake hands, but also hug.

After hugging, Nabari asked with a smile: "Friends from afar, can I help you?"

Zhang Zi'an opened the door and explained the request of the scientific research team to hire him to lead the desert, and did not forget Salem's request, saying that it was Salem's repeated recommendation.

Salim also helped, and described Zhang Zi'an as a good friend who has lived and died with him for many years. He also said that Zhang Zi'an had helped him a lot and begged Nabari to help him pay him back anyway.

Nabari groaned for a moment, without rushing to agree, but first asked the scientific research team where he intended to go, because the western desert belongs to a part of the Sahara ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ plunged into it like a headless fly No, there aren't enough deaths.

Zhang Zi'an nodded secretly, and Nabari promised without a generous remuneration, how much it proved that he was a calm and cautious person.

In fact, Nabari also just asked the difficulties of the scientific research team, because the scientific research team did not have a clear goal. Wei Kang asked the Bedouins as a guide, and he wanted to find out whether they were in the Bedouin population who was familiar with the desert situation. Species like primitive Egyptian cats have been witnessed deep in the desert, otherwise it would really be a haystack.

"Cat?" Nabari frowned for a moment, "You went to the desert to find a cat?"

"Yes, but not ordinary cats." Zhang Zi'an said.

Explaining what a primitive Egyptian cat was, he turned back and pointed to Fina, who was with him, "a cat like this."

Fina didn't walk into this shabby shack and squatted lazily outside.

Nabari stared at Fina a few times, and said with uncertainty: "It seems to have been ..."
