Camel treasure hunt

Chen Bochui

"There is a priceless treasure in that distant place!" The good news caused a sensation in the whole animal kingdom. Birds and animals are eager to try, and intend to collect fire.

The archduke elephant flapped its ears bigger than the cattail leaf fan and heard the very strange news. He didn't want to miss this good opportunity, so he set off with a thousand kilograms of bananas on his back. He also asked his wife to help him with his nose. Hearing the news, the golden monkey put on a golden velvet coat, picked a dozen delicious peaches, put them in the tied kudzu pocket, and set off on his shoulders.

Hearing the news of the treasure hunt, the crow flew out of the nest, the black bear came out of the hole, and even the old hen and the old hen, who had a bitter quarrel, made up and joined the treasure hunt hand in hand. Those cattle, horses and sheep heard that there was a treasure in the distance, so they all tried their luck together. A big white goose is running excitedly. She is looking forward to reaching the sky after finding the treasure and competing with the arrogant swan. A flock of ducks crowded together happily and noisily. Some people say they will share the treasure when they find it, while others advocate selling it and buying a clean pool so that everyone can take a bath comfortably and happily.

Lions, tigers, leopards, wolves and one-horned rhinos have also gone on the road with great fanfare. They all think they are powerful and most qualified to get the treasure. One-horned rhinoceros is a nearsighted person with a depth of 1230 degrees, and the hornbill on the whole backrest guides him. This fat and stupid hippo saw that everyone was going to treasure, so he was jealous and overreached, but he didn't go far, so he was panting and hungry and had to go down to the river to find some water plants to satisfy his hunger.

The flat and wide avenue is crowded with animals. I saw the dust rolling, and the voices in the dust fog were noisy: the roar of lions, the howl of wolves, the roar of tigers, Ma Si, the cry of donkeys, the bleating of Cleisthenes of cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese and pigeons ... I couldn't hear what they were shouting, but it seemed that everyone was shouting the same sentence: "Go treasure hunting!" Treasure hunt! "They ran around like crazy people and rushed forward with all their strength. When the sun sets and the new moon rises, more than half of them will relax. When it gets dark, sparrows, turtledoves, white geese, ducks, old hens and old hens are abandoned from the roadside. After seeing it, the little donkey didn't want to be a fool and quietly returned to his hometown.

The next morning, the cow also squatted down to stay. Then marmots, sandbadgers, civets, weasels, quails and partridges also stopped. After a while, they came back quietly one by one. They all muttered to themselves, "Don't be silly!"

On the third day, more than half of the treasure hunters disappeared. The wide and flat avenue looks empty. The black bear is hungry, and its stomach is growling. When he thinks of honey, he is less interested in treasure hunting, so he wants to go back to the fence and break into the bee farm to have a good meal. Giraffe is a giant, always "visionary", but he has been running for two days, and the road is still endless. He suspected that he had taken the wrong road, hesitated, stopped running and finally went back. Listening to the hornbill pointing to his back, the one-horned rhinoceros turned its heavy body and walked back. "You can't believe what others say, and you can't concentrate! "The elephant's mouth criticized others too much, and his heart shook; Besides, we almost ate bananas. He hesitated for a moment, shook his long nose a few times and went back in frustration.

At noon on the third day, it was very hot and there was no place to drink water. The golden monkey ate all the peaches, and now it has no strength. A gust of wind blew with sand, and the golden monkey was afraid to stain its golden coat, so it quickly turned and walked back. Peacock is even more distressed by its colorful golden screen, and also hovers and flies back.

The leopard gets more and more bored, and goes to the tree from time to time to see the treasure in the distance. When the wolf saw it, he was jealous of its ability to climb trees and then laughed at its laziness. The leopard became angry from embarrassment and bit the wolf. As a result, both of them were bloody. One lost his tail and the other lost his ear. He was in such a mess that he didn't want to go treasure hunting and went back despondently.

Lions and tigers are secretly pleased to find that there are fewer and fewer treasure hunters. The fewer competitors, the greater the hope of winning the treasure. They are selfish and afraid of each other's treasures. Along the way, you chased each other and refused to give in. Finally, the lion roared and the tiger roared, preparing for a fierce battle. Suddenly, they saw the little lion and the little tiger snuggling up to each other, hugging and playing happily. The two "kings of beasts" froze, bowed their heads in shame and turned back.

Now, there is nothing lively to see on this treasure-hunting avenue. All you can see is a limping camel with two humps. This is a beautiful camel. He often carries mountains of heavy objects on his back and walks hungrily in the vast desert of clusters of red willows, just like a yacht sailing in the vast yellow sand sea. Camel is an excellent marathon runner in the animal country. People praise him as a "boat in the desert". But he is very modest, never shouting, just walking silently.

The parrot asked curiously how the camel became lame. Camel said that when he sent a passenger across the desert last winter, he was caught in heavy snow and his legs were frozen. The parrot thought, what's the taste of going treasure hunting with this stupid and lame guy? What should others say when they see it? So she unfolded the colorful feathers interwoven with red, yellow and green and flew away without looking back. Passing by the orchard, I saw woodpeckers catching insects on the trunk, as if a doctor were treating a big tree. The parrot thought, this is my treasure hunting partner. How nice it would be to have a private doctor with you on the trip! She knocked and invited woodpeckers to go treasure hunting together. The woodpecker said very coldly, "You go and find your baby, and I'll take care of my forest." My treasure is here. The parrot got a rebuff.

Along the way, the camel saw wild animals turning back one after another, but he was not discouraged. He firmly believed that if he worked hard, he would hope to find the treasure. He walked alone, going through one journey after another, wading through lengshuitan and wading through an icy lake. The ice was cold and painful, but the camel still got up the courage and walked forward step by step. I finally crossed the ice lake and walked through the hot hole. This is a hole, but it is several kilometers long. It's dark in the hole, so you can't see anything. A gust of hot air, like a dry and prickly tongue, licked him up and down, sweating all over, his stomach was empty and his hump was flat, but all this could not stop the camel from moving forward. Even more coincidentally, the frozen legs were cooked by hot air, the blood vessels were unblocked, the joints moved, and they completely returned to normal. Next, we must cross the flat valley. This valley is located between two opposing mountains, so narrow that only a thin horse can pass through it. The camel crossed the two-kilometer long valley with great patience. Although his scalp was broken, his shoulder bone was injured and his legs and feet were bleeding, he still squeezed to walk. Four hours later, he finally rushed out of the narrow valley and came to the treasure pass.

As soon as the camel entered the customs, the breeze slowly brought waves of warmth and fragrance of the earth. When I walked out of the mountain pass, I suddenly saw the beautiful scenery: the lawn was lovely green, just like the most exquisite green blanket made of pure wool. There is a flower pier behind the lawn, and flowers bloom in spring, summer, autumn and winter. In front of Huawu is a clear stream, which sings happy songs and flows into a sparkling and silvery lake. At the end of the lake is a faint green hill with undulating peaks, like a green jade screen. The screen is dotted with countless red flowers, which looks like a landscape painting with red in green from a distance. ...

Camels enjoy the beauty of nature, forget hunger and thirst, and forget the hard work since they set foot on the ancient treasure hunt. Suddenly, there was a loud noise and a water column appeared on the lake. A very beautiful fairy came out of the water column. She greeted the camel from afar with a smile and took out a beautiful pearl necklace from the treasure chest as a prize for him. The camel said that he had a camel bell and didn't need this ornament. The fairy took out a gold medal engraved with the portrait of a camel to commend the camel for carrying people and goods in the desert for a long time. Camel said that he got all the help when he traveled in the desert, and he couldn't keep the gold medal for himself. The fairy took out jade, agate, amber, crystal and coral, as well as luminous jade, Jin Gangzuan, emerald and cat's eye, and let him choose. However, camels disdain these valuable things. They are either not suitable or not good for everyone, so they politely refuse them one by one. The fairy thinks camels are cuter. She asked him cheerfully what treasure he was looking for. The camel said, this place is really beautiful. If only a treasure could turn the desert where he lives into this. The fairy smiled: "Your wish will not come to nothing." As she spoke, she stepped back and suddenly disappeared.

The camel was really sleepy and unconsciously fell asleep on the soft green lawn. He vaguely felt that the mysterious fairy floated from the lake again and suggested that he settle down in this beautiful place. Camel said that if he stays here to enjoy happiness and gives up his ambition to transform his hometown, it is equivalent to "getting the treasure, but losing it." He can't do this. The fairy smiled. She wants to test camels. After hearing this, her heart was filled with respect: "There are good citizens in your hometown who love their hometown and are honest and selfless. Today's desert will be a beautiful and rich place tomorrow. " The fairy respected the camel very much and changed the name "you" to "you". "Well, all the treasures you like are in this basket. It's a long way, I'll give you a ride. " The camel was about to say, "Thank you! Don't send it . . . . 。” Before the words were finished, something strange suddenly happened. His body was held in the air by clouds, and he only heard the wind whistling in his ear. In the blink of an eye, he has landed smoothly on an oasis in the south of the Gobi Desert. The camel is very happy. He returned to his hometown.

Swallow happened to see a camel on the way south, only to see a red silk scarf tied around its long neck and a beautiful basket between the two humps. The swallow is curious to see what "treasure" the camel has found. He flew over the hump at low altitude, looked and looked again, and was surprised: there were only some seeds of Populus euphratica, Elaeagnus angustifolia, drought-resistant, alkali-resistant and cold-resistant Apocynum venetum, as well as reeds, Achnatherum splendens, Haloxylon ammodendron and camel thorn in the basket. Swallow froze, shh! What kind of treasure is this? After further consideration, he came to his senses. What camels find is not a treasure to treat themselves, but a treasure to benefit everyone.

I heard that the camel found a real priceless treasure, and the parrot was envious. She asked the swallow, "Is it the pearl in the Sultan's crown in Arabian Nights?" The swallow said contemptuously, "You underestimate him! What kind of people in the world are looking for what kind of treasure. Camels are looking for treasures that turn deserts into oases! " The parrot was shocked and ashamed, blushed, flapped its wings and flew away without interest.

At that time, the camel and its companions were crossing the long sand beam. ...
