As soon as the takeaway box was opened, hot steam came out of it. As the smell of big plate chicken came out, He Xuebin's stomach started to growl again.
He Jingnian couldn't hold back his stomach either.
For a moment, the father and son's abdomens rose and fell in the car.
Seeing this, Xu Qi quickly gave them a piece of baked naan to eat first.
Lu Chuanbei even sped up the speed of delivering the takeout. After a while, the aroma of pilaf, stewed lamb chops, roasted lamb, etc. spread throughout the car.
"Come on, eat quickly."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Tiantian and the others who had been waiting with chopsticks in hand hurriedly added to the food.
The originally soft lamb chops become even softer and more tender after being heated once. Dipping the crispy and tender naan in a little of the stewed lamb chops soup will warm you up instantly.
Soon, all the food they packed from the restaurant and the dozen or so naan breads as big as plates were eaten up.
He Xuebin even used the last bit of naan to soak up all the soup.
The takeaway box looked like it had been washed, it was incredibly clean.
[You can tell they are really hungry]
[From the big lunch, to eating the food I took home, I can imagine how terrible the food will be in the following period.]
I never thought that my father and I would end up like this. I thought they could eat well even in Xinjiang. It seems I overestimated them.
[Don't be too confident. This is only their first day here. Maybe after they complete their mission and find a place to stay tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, they will successfully turn the tables.]
[Are you sure about this? With no money and no supplies, can they still turn things around?]
[You can fish and catch seafood at the beach, but trying to find something to eat in the desert... I don't look down on them, it's just not realistic.]
[That’s right, even for us locals, it’s almost impossible to find food in the desert, let alone these people who are here for the first time.]
After eating, everyone put away their lunch boxes and started the car to the next mission point - Qiemo
It takes about four or five hours to get from here to Qiemo, and there are no street lights on the entire road, so Xu Qi drove extremely carefully.
The car drove forward, and Song Tiantian and the others fell asleep in the shaking car. Although the air conditioner was on and the car was not cold, Lu Chuanbei still took a thin coat and covered Song Tiantian with it, for fear that his daughter would catch a cold on the road.
"Brother Xu, do you want to pull over and rest for a while?" Lu Chuanbei came to the passenger seat and asked Xu Qi who was still concentrating on driving.
"No, I'm resting now."
"But it's already early morning. If we keep going, it will soon be daybreak." The daylight hours in Xinjiang are very long at this time. It is daylight for almost eighteen hours and there are only less than six hours of night. So, they set off at around ten o'clock after dinner. It will only take about two hours for it to be bright when they arrive in Qiemo.
"I know, but once the car is turned off and parked, the temperature inside will soon be the same as outside." Xu Qi looked through the rearview mirror at the people who were already asleep in the car. "We don't have any warm clothes. If the temperature drops, Jiajia and the others will catch a cold on the road."
"Besides, just stopping to use the air conditioner consumes a lot of fuel. Since I'm going to use fuel anyway, I might as well drive to Qiemo first. By then, when it's almost dawn, the temperature will have risen, and I won't be wasting time resting."
Hearing this, Lu Chuanbei blamed himself a little: "If I had known this would happen, I should have gotten an A1 driver's license. That way, you wouldn't be the only one driving, Brother Xu."
"Let's take an exam together later." Fang Xiuzhu, who had woken up at some point, said.
"good."
When Lu Chuanbei and Fang Xiuzhu decided to go back and take a driving test, Song Tiantian opened her eyes in a half-asleep state and looked out the car window. At this glance, she seemed to see a moving blue sea, sparkling with the luster of waves under the moonlight.
When she saw this, Song Tiantian thought she was dreaming, so she turned over and continued to sleep.
The system looked at Song Tiantian, who didn't know what she had missed, and silently saved the scene it had just scanned.
The car continued to drive forward, and after almost three hours, the road sign for Qiemo appeared in front of them. Xu Qi followed the instructions on the road sign and drove to the location of the legendary Qiemo ruins, then found an open space to stop.
In order to maintain the temperature inside the car, the air conditioner was kept on. After a tiring night, Xu Qi reclined the driver's seat after parking the car and fell asleep to the vibration of the car's engine.
Lu Chuanbei stood up silently and opened the rear window slightly to allow air to circulate, so as to avoid the threat of suffocation caused by excessive carbon dioxide produced in the car.
Some night owl netizens expressed confusion after seeing Lu Chuanbei's actions.
【What is Xiao Lu doing? 】
[Why did he even open the car window a crack? Doesn't he know it's cold here at night? Wouldn't that let in all the cold air?]
Director Xu just fell asleep, and Xiao Lu opened the car window. Isn't that too rude?
What's going on? He's letting all the heat out of the air conditioner.
[It's better to let some heat out to ventilate the air than to suffocate due to lack of oxygen in the car, right?]
What are you talking about? What's suffocation?
No way, no way, there are still people who don't know that falling asleep with the air conditioner on while the car is parked is dangerous for suffocation, right?
[What? Is there such a thing?]
So is there really anyone who doesn’t know?
[So, Xiao Lu actually opened a gap in the car's boat because he was afraid no one would notice it?]
[Of course, Xiao Lu studied medicine, so he must know more about this than the average person.]
[Now I finally understand why some people die inexplicably while sleeping in their cars in the summer. Could it be carbon dioxide poisoning?]
[Gurgle… I was a little sleepy at first, but now I’m completely awake…]
[Me too. I once fell asleep in the car during the summer. Now it seems I'm really lucky...]
After netizens learned about the dangers of falling asleep in a car, He Xuebin woke up from his sleep. He looked at Lu Chuanbei, who was covering Xu Qi with a piece of clothing, and asked hurriedly, "Did Old Xu just fall asleep?"
"Well, Brother Xu just drove here and stopped."
He Xuebin glanced outside and said, "He's really worked hard today."
"Yeah, so Brother Fang and I plan to find a place to learn bus driving skills and take the test when we get back this time. Otherwise, if we encounter this situation next time, we won't be able to help at all."
"You're right, it's time to take the exam." He Xuebin agreed, "When you find a good place, call me."
"Okay, let's form a team and take one together."
As he spoke, He Xuebin also noticed the open window on the north side of Lu Chuan. Seeing this, He Xuebin subconsciously stood up and said, "Brother Lu, why is your window not closed properly?"
"This." Lu Chuanbei glanced at the gap in the car window and said, "I left this specially."
"Ah?" He Xuebin looked at him with some confusion.
Lu Chuanbei explained the dangers of falling asleep with the air conditioner on while the car was parked. He Xuebin was terrified when he heard this: "Oh my God, I usually stay up late filming and sometimes even sleep in the car. Wouldn't that mean I'm always on the verge of death?"
"It's important to note that when you fall asleep in a car, you must not completely seal off all sides, otherwise it can easily be dangerous."
"Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention next time." He Xuebin was frightened awake.
At this moment, Song Tiantian rubbed her eyes and stood up from her seat. Seeing this, Lu Chuanbei hurried forward and walked towards Song Tiantian: "Tiantian, why are you awake? Did Dad wake you up?"
"No, I just woke up." Song Tiantian said, glancing out the window: "Dad, are we there yet?"
Lu Chuanbei nodded: "Yes, the Qiemo ruins are outside."
"I know. It's the Qiemo that was annexed by Loulan."
"Yes, it's here."
"But why is there nothing outside?" Song Tiantian leaned against the car window with some confusion, looking out at the desolate sand dunes illuminated by the moonlight. "Are we sure we're in the right place?"
"I don't think so." Lu Chuanbei was not sure either: "But we followed the navigation, so we shouldn't be wrong."
"That's right." Song Tiantian thought of something and looked at the cars following behind: "If we go the wrong way, Uncle Zhang and the others will remind us if they follow us."
"That's not necessarily true." He Xuebin glanced back: "They might even hope that we're in the wrong place."
"Um...that's right, the uncles and aunts in the program team are all a little naughty." Song Tiantian said with a puffy face.
[Haha, Tiantian’s puffy face and expression when she said the production team was a little naughty is so cute]
[Tiantian, are you sure they are just a little bit bad, and not completely bad?]
[Tiantian is still too naive. She has never seen the dangers of the world. Otherwise, she wouldn't say such naive words...]
[Don't worry, the production team will soon let Tiantian learn more. I don't know why I'm suddenly looking forward to Tiantian's reaction.]
