Chapter 142
Chu Huaiqin crafted a double-layered, square drag platform, about one meter long and wide, and even added wheels. The theory was simple, but the execution was challenging. First, he used a tree trunk with a diameter as large as his arm to carve out a 10cm thick circle. A small hole was cut in the center, and a tree trunk was passed through the three circles, forming three wheels. These wheels were then secured to the underside of the drag platform in a triangular formation. The tow rope used for tying tents was used, and once tied to the drag platform, it looked very practical.
By this time, it was already two o'clock in the morning. It took less than an hour to cut the branches and tie the tow board, but it took almost five hours to cut the wheels and dig the wheel holes. The hands of the three people were red and blistered.
"Brother, hurry up and sit on it. I'll try to pull it." The little monk pulled the stretcher around in the Gobi Desert and found it very easy. He urged Chu Huaiqin repeatedly.
Chu Huaiqin also wanted to try it, so Xia En held him and he sat on it. The one-meter square board had plenty of space for Chu Huaiqin to sit on. He held onto the two pillars on top and moved his butt, feeling that it was a bit bumpy.
"Are you ready?" asked the little monk.
"Okay." Chu Huaiqin looked at the little monk's excitement and was a little worried about his butt.
"Don't drag it out too fast." Xia En held up the watch light, afraid that the little monk would get excited and throw him off.
"Don't worry, don't worry!" the little monk said repeatedly. Putting on his gloves, he pulled the rope and said, "Brother, I'm starting now."
After saying this, the little monk took the first step, the second step, the third step...
It worked.
When the live broadcast room saw the little monk dragging the man without much effort, they cheered. Chu Huaiqin was also surprised. He had originally thought that the big bear would pull him, but he didn't expect the little monk to be able to drag him. It seems that this drag board is very successful.
"Ming, I can pull you tomorrow, so there's no need for it." Xia En approached Chu Huaiqin and said embarrassedly.
"Well, that's fine," Chu Huaiqin nodded. He didn't really need Big Bear to poop, but according to past records, his feet couldn't be digested in a week, so in order not to miss the food, he came up with this idea.
The conversation between the two left the domestic audience in the live broadcast room confused: it? She? He? Who?
Foreign audiences didn't think so much. Their first reaction was to the three hungry wolves and the big bear following behind. But think about it, it doesn't make sense. The hungry wolves are very ferocious. It is not easy to tame them in a short time. As for the big bear, there is no sign of it!
It was almost three in the morning when the three of them finally fell asleep. The jet-lagged crowd in the livestream room was still discussing who Chu Huaiqin had originally identified as the "pull board." After two hours of lively discussion, the livestream room finally found out.
Under the hazy moonlight, the Gobi bear that had disappeared for a few days appeared again, and he was holding a chicken in his hand, yes, a chicken.
Live broadcast room:
"Woo woo~~, just how devoted is Big Bear to his brother!"
"A love story of an unparalleled time, a love story of an unparalleled time, the love between a man and a bear continues, the love between a man and a bear continues."
"I burst into tears, and instantly imagined a million-word romance."
"Big Bear: Even if you have a new love, I will still show up when you need me."
"Am I the only one wondering if this chicken is the same one from a few days ago?"
Live broadcast room: ...
"Curve building, pick it out."
The Gobi Bear's appearance certainly surprised many, and it also reminded people of who Chu Huaiqin had asked "it" to pull the trolley. The chicken wasn't from a few days ago; it was still alive and kicking, and no one knew where it had been found. The Gobi Bear sniffed around until it finally stood in front of Chu Huaiqin's tent. Then, under the incredulous gazes of the livestreamers, it placed its sharp claws on the zipper and pressed down. Halfway through, it tossed the chicken into the tent.
In an instant, chickens jumped up and down.
The big bear standing outside listening to the chaotic noise inside the tent blinked. The drone at this time gave a close-up. The small, round eyes first showed confusion, and then aggrieved. Then the Gobi bear suddenly turned around, whooshed and rushed into the night with its fat butt twisted.
Live broadcast room: ...
"Qingqing, what's wrong?" Xia En came out of the tent, only to see the Gobi Bear. Unable to understand what was going on, Xia En hurriedly unzipped the remaining half of his zipper and saw Chu Huaiqin with a messy head of hair, streaked with chicken feathers.
"Is it a big bear?" Chu Huaiqin was very helpless, holding the chicken wings. He saw a Gobi bear before sunset today and was thinking of using it to pull the cart, but he didn't expect it to be there for food.
"Oh, brother, a chicken." The little monk also came out and smiled when he saw the chicken.
Chu Huaiqin looked outside and saw no trace of the Gobi bear. He handed it to the little monk and said, "Tie it up. We'll kill it tomorrow."
After saying this, Chu Huaiqin half-closed his eyes and climbed up, but before he could take a step, Xia En stopped him and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Go sleep in your tent." Chu Huaiqin responded as if it was his due. Xia En didn't ask why. He bent down, picked him up, and carried him into the tent.
This has happened several times today. Fortunately, Chu Huaiqin is thick-skinned, otherwise he would have been embarrassed and angry.
After settling the man down and removing the hair from his head, Xia Entang returned to Chu Huaiqin's tent. He didn't believe Chu Huaiqin would run to squeeze into his tent for no reason. Sure enough, as soon as he put his head inside the tent, Xia Entang smelled chicken shit. He thought it must have fallen out when he caught the chicken earlier.
The little monk, holding the chicken, was a bit worried. He was happy to have the chicken, but he was also worried about how to keep it safe through the night. He had to remember that there were three hungry wolves following him nearby. If he went to sleep and the chicken was attacked in the middle of the night, wouldn't he be heartbroken? What if the three hungry wolves, having whetted their appetites with the chicken, devoured him too?
After thinking it over, the little monk wrapped himself in a coat, held a chicken in his arms, and staggered towards the director team. Then, in the surprised eyes of the night duty staff, he tied the rope that had been prepared in advance to the chicken's feet at one end and to his wrist at the other end, sat down, and fell asleep leaning against the edge of the tent.
The two staff members on duty instantly felt the gazes of three hungry wolves not far away focused on them.
The two suddenly remembered what the staff of Route A said in the group yesterday about Lin Zhinan, and they shouted in their hearts: Why is the style of the Rolling Team so consistent?
The little monk ran to the director's tent to sleep. There were several large vehicles, people, large tents, headlights, etc. The three hungry wolves, who were originally jealous, circled around it for the rest of the night, but finally did not dare to go over.
The next day, the little monk and Xia Entropy woke up one after another. The former was worried about the chicken, while the latter was used to getting up at this time.
"Ah, Big Bear."
The young monk, clutching the chicken, gazed in amazement at the bear, which stood on all fours not far from the saxaul tree. He'd been a bit intimidated before, but after the bear's chicken delivery the previous night, the young monk was no longer afraid. He stuffed the chicken into Xia En's arms, causing a chorus of cries. The young monk quickly approached the saxaul tree, climbed up in a few seconds, broke off a branch, and threw it down. The Gobi bear, startled, took two steps back, letting out a warning whine.
"Oh, I'm sorry I scared you. I gave it to you to eat." The little monk broke off a handful of fruits, wiped one on his clothes, and said loudly to the Gobi bear, "Look at me, eat, it's edible."
The live broadcast room was speechless: "Come on, Gobi Bear, don't you know that this thing is edible?"
Xia Entang ignored the monk's foolishness and took the chicken to deal with it. Hearing the monk coaxing the Gobi bear to eat dates, he felt a slight headache.
The little monk coaxed the bear until his tongue was dry and his mouth was parched. When the sun came out, the Gobi bear finally condescended to sniff the food thrown in front of it, and then tried to eat the first one. At this time, Chu Huaiqin was just awakened by the sunlight.
Chu Huaiqin sat up drowsily, perking himself up and looking outside. He saw a Gobi bear sitting under a saxaul tree, eating dates. A little monk was wailing on the treetop, while Xia Entang was stewing chicken. The scene was harmonious.
Chu Huaiqin: What did I miss?
The cooked chicken also caused the Gobi bear to turn its head frequently, its nose twitching. After Xia Entang lifted the lid, it couldn't help but take a few steps forward.
The little monk smelled the fragrance and jumped down from the tree, calling out to the Gobi bear, but the bear didn't move, with its head slightly raised, looking a bit more arrogant. But the little eyes couldn't help but glance at Chu Huaiqin, and the live broadcast room was full of laughter. This bear must have become a spirit!
"Big bear, come here." Chu Huaiqin called out and waved to it.
Just when everyone thought it would ignore them and continue to be arrogant for a while, the Gobi bear stood up from the ground, twisted its fat butt and ran towards Chu Huaiqin. When it was about three meters close to him, the Gobi bear sat down with its butt. After all, wild animals are still wary of humans.
Live broadcast room: I really want to see the famous face of Bear Hug Brother someday.
During this meal, Chu Huaiqin and his crew were satisfied, but the Gobi bear continued to eat its angustifolia. It wasn't that Chu Huaiqin and his crew wouldn't feed it, but it wasn't on its diet, and once it started eating, they were afraid it would change its eating habits. Besides poisonous creatures, there are very few edible meat animals in the desert. The Gobi bear caught the chicken, which was released by the directors. If it had whetted its appetite, the consequences would have been disastrous.
After breakfast, Xia Entang and the young monk climbed the tree together to pick saxauls. These can last for days, so they had to bring everything they could, while Chu Huaiqin sat below for a doctor's examination of his foot. It was the third day since Chu Huaiqin's foot injury, and seeing his ankle, still a sliver of flesh, the doctor finally believed the profound difference between Chu Huaiqin's and ordinary people's constitutions.
The Gobi bear originally just sat under the jujube tree and watched the two people picking jujubes above, but perhaps it noticed the fun, so it quickly climbed up, and then everyone saw the sand dates falling like rain.
They picked so many that in order to fit more sand dates, Chu Huaiqin emptied his backpack and stuffed all his clothes into Xia En's backpack, and then filled the whole backpack.
The three of them packed up their things. Chu Huaiqin's tent was covered in chicken droppings, and they didn't have enough water to clean it. After some discussion, they decided to cut the tent into pieces. Part of it was used as a cushion on the drag board to make it less painful for Chu Huaiqin to sit on. The rest was used to make a shed, a four-legged shed. Chu Huaiqin sat in it and felt like he was an emperor traveling.
In order to reduce the burden, Xia En's backpack and the backpack containing the saxaul were placed in the drag board with Chu Huaiqin, and Xia En pulled.
"No problem?" Chu Huaiqin was still a little worried. The soil in the Gobi Desert was hard and flat, suitable for driving cars, but the workmanship of the drag board was quite rough. Chu Huaiqin was afraid that when pulling it, the wheels would not be able to withstand much force.
"Don't worry!"
Xia En was eager to try, so he put the rope around his waist and started walking.
A dull sound echoed in the ears of several people. Because of the wheels, Xia Entropy pulled up easily and quickened his pace. The little monk ran beside him with a bag on his back, and a bear followed behind him. Under the scorching summer sun, the people in the live broadcast room were actually a little moved by what they saw.
Foreign audience: "Harmony between humans and nature."
Domestic audience: "The white dragon horse, its hooves facing west, carries Tang Sanzang and his three disciples..."
