Everyone felt relieved when they heard the camping order. Looking back at the joy when they set off, it was clear that in less than half a day, the difference in mood was as big as the next day, and the heat had almost dropped from the boiling point to the freezing point.

The camping location was chosen by Nabari. Although it doesn't seem to make any difference where to camp in the desert, whether the guide is comfortable or safe can be seen.

Nabari chose a flat sandy land on the leeward side of the tall dune as the camping site, the dune trapped by No. 10 vehicle.

With the location chosen, everyone began to get busy.

Camping depends on the skills of Lippet's team. They often go to humanities and natural wonders around the world ... The universe has pure energy and rich experience in camping in the wild.

On the other hand, in addition to Wei Kang's repeated field trips and accumulated some experience, other people, including Zhang Zi'an, are novices. They have only browsed the manuals of camping tents, and have not actually operated them.

The people in Lippit's team saw that Wei Kang's side was too inefficient, and when they were busy, they ran over to help them set up tents. In fact, most of these people were enthusiastic and easy to get along with. As long as they don't offend their inverse scale, everything else is easy to say.

The tents they brought were large and small, including single, double, triple, and four-person tents, mainly single and double tents. As long as Zhang Zi'an took care of the elves, he insisted on bringing a four-person tent.

After a brief discussion, He He and the female detective shared a two-person tent, which was set up in the center of the campsite and surrounded by other people's tents.

13 off-road vehicles parked in a crescent moon shape, surrounding the tent group with the large sand dunes like (), leaving one up and down two passages for access, as a convenient way for men and women to go .

Lippit and Weikang solemnly and solemnly announced the first discipline-no one is allowed to leave the camp at night except for convenience, and the two women must go together when it is convenient.

The next step is to arrange vigil candidates. There are 15 people in the team. In addition to the two women being exempt from vigil missions, the other 13 men are required to vigil for two hours each.

The female detective has a slight word, and feels that she can also join the vigil. There is no need for the men to take care of it, but Wei Kang told her in private, mainly to ask her to look after He He. Do n’t let this unknown girl trouble her. This was a reluctance to agree.

When the tent was set up, the sun went down, there were only a few rays of light in the west, and stars were rising in the night sky.

The temperature dropped and quickly fell, letting them realize the true meaning of the temperature difference between the day and night in the desert. The sweat was tossing for a tent the previous moment, and the wind felt chills and chills in the back.

The other person is the degree of coldness in the back. He He, who is most afraid of the cold, just put on a coat, but everyone turned around, and the uncle and nephew Nabari and Salem actually wore fur and shoulders, as if entering It's winter.

Bedouins have lived in hot and dry deserts for generations, and their ability to adapt to the desert is beyond ordinary imagination. The water in the desert is precious. If they sweat like hot water at ordinary times, I'm afraid they can't use the desert as their home. So, they have evolved to some degree, and the body has adapted to high temperatures.

When Zhang Zi'an was sweating like rain, Nabari and Salem's faces only sweated slightly.

Humans are constant temperature animals and cannot adapt to both high and low temperatures. When the temperature drops, the uncle and nephew will feel cold and need insulation.

This is probably the true portrayal of "retirement."

It stands to reason that the tent has been set up and the vigil has been arranged. Can we rest? Still not work, the next task is for the driver of each vehicle to check the remaining amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the consumption of water and food, and then summarize it to Lippit and Wei Kang, which is also a daily task in the future.

Zhang Zi'an's tent is located closest to the sand dunes in the camp. Because it is relatively large, it is also the most troublesome to set up. When he finally set up the tent, after counting the fuel and materials in his car, he went to the guard with the statistics Kang He Lipitt reports.

He seems to be the last one to report. Everyone else has already done the report. The excel form displayed on the laptop in front of Wei Kang is only left with a blank line for car number 4.

Wei Kang filled the numbers he read into the form, and excel automatically calculated the total fuel consumption of all vehicles, the total fuel remaining and the average fuel consumption of each vehicle, as well as the remaining water and food according to the formula. There are expected maintenance days.

Lippit was also present, standing behind Wei Kang. The two of them frowned when they saw the numbers displayed at www.readwn.com.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Zi'an didn't look at them as if they were worried.

Wei Kang and Lippitt looked at each other and considered for a moment and said, "In fact, it's nothing, the consumption of oil and water is a bit too fast, exceeding our estimates ... But don't worry, we have considered the redundancy when preparing the supplies. ,should be no problem."

For their team, water is the source of life, oil is the driving force of forward and backward, these two are the most important things, more important than food.

Zhang Zi'an heard a word in his heart and saw that Wei Kang had no objection, and went over to look at the form carefully.

When he moved his eyes to the column of average fuel consumption of vehicles, he was really surprised. If the data was excluded, the average fuel consumption of each vehicle was as much as 30 liters per 100 kilometers!

The large-displacement diesel off-road vehicle has large torque, strong power, and solid durability. Compared with gasoline vehicles, it is more fuel-efficient. Diesel itself is less volatile and less flavorful. Therefore, the vehicles used in the desert are all diesel vehicles.

Despite the many advantages of diesel vehicles, they still have unusually high fuel consumption.

Wei Kang had analyzed it before Zhang Zi'an came. There are three reasons: First, they carried a lot of materials and equipment and increased the load; second, the road conditions were extremely bad; and third, the air conditioners were large fuel consumers.

Among them, the second point is the most deadly.

Driving in the desert, the tires overcome the resistance to do work, and a quarter is trapped in the sand at all times. The fuel consumption cannot be compared with running on the highway, especially when driving over the dunes, the engine is eating gas. .

Today, about half of the distance is run in the Gobi. Although Gobi's road conditions are also very poor, it is at least much better than the desert, which reduces fuel consumption. It will be expected that the fuel consumption will continue in the desert. Increased substantially.

The situation is obviously not as easy as Wei Kang said.
