Talk about the trip to Xinjiang

I've been lying in bed these days recovering from my injuries, and I want to write something. The last article about riding a motorcycle received a good response, so I continued to write. This is my memoir. In 20 18, I went to Xinjiang with my brothers to spray cotton with drones. I stayed in Xinjiang for a whole month and learned a lot about Xinjiang's customs. The epidemic is so serious now, it is estimated that we can't go for a short time. )

At first, with longing for this magical land, we were excited and full of ambitions, and drove more than 3,000 kilometers to this place without feeling tired at all. Desert, Gobi, grassland, clear sky in Wan Li, land horizon; We even witnessed an extraterrestrial meteorite with a gorgeous halo falling from the sky, and finally dragged the long Flametail from our eyes to the other side of the sky. The scenery is beautiful all the way.

We first went to Yuli County, Korla City, Bayinguoleng area (this county is estimated to be not much smaller than Zhejiang Province) and ate Korla fragrant pears, cantaloupes, watermelons, grapes and jujubes. These fruits are delicious and cheaper than you think. Fortunately, we work in the fields of fellow villagers, and the simple fellow villagers let us eat watermelons, pears and dates at will; I swear I've never eaten such delicious watermelon. When I pick it up from the ground, it will split into several petals with a light hammer. It is called juicy, sweet and crisp watermelon with excellent taste. I feel that the watermelon I used to eat is not called watermelon. Villagers often give us a bag of pears or dates when we leave, telling us to pay attention to safety on the road. We two brothers smiled brightly, waved goodbye and felt warm in our hearts.

In the morning, we set off for work. We like to eat baked buns at the crossroads, which are golden and crisp, and the mutton is fat and full. When we return to the base after work, we like to eat the pit meat on the roadside or roast whole sheep. A bunch of that pit meat costs four to five yuan, and roast whole sheep costs about one hundred yuan a kilogram. Usually, 100 yuan can make us eat enough meat, and burping tastes like roast sheep.

I have to say that our most embarrassing experience was that the base sent us to work in no man's land. Drive one or two hundred kilometers from the main road into the path, and then cross the washboard road that makes people feel painful and desperate for seventy or eighty kilometers to reach this inaccessible place. The boss drove me to Prado to survey the land, and soon I almost overturned in the reeds. .

There is no water, no electricity and no signal. The mobile phone can only look at the time here. The house I live in is the kind of no-man's land played by Xu zhēng, and the bed is made of wooden boards. At night, we carry a diesel generator to generate electricity, boil water and make instant noodles, and then sleep on the boards and clothes. The next day, I also found the footprints of some unknown animals around my residence.

I woke up early the next day. I have breakfast on a hill, and there is a petrol tank on the table. By the way, I watched the sunrise and felt that there was a vast world for me to walk alone.

Today, we are going to defoliate more than 700 acres of cotton. The task is heavy. I sprained my knee at noon and it was a little difficult to walk. I continue to work hard. We worked until eleven o'clock at night, and towards the end, our car got stuck. . . Trapped in the reeds, the ground is full of sand, half a wheel is trapped in the sand, next to a ridge, almost overturned. I tried my best to drive the car out of order. After driving for more than two hours, my hungry feet still hurt. The night around me is as silent as death, and the wind is blowing. I wrapped my clothes tightly and there was no signal on my cell phone. At that time, I had a moment of despair in my heart and thought of giving up. Why did I come to this terrible place? To feed the wolves?

The next morning, the boss dragged us out with a four-wheel drive pickup truck and a low-speed four-wheel drive. Well, see the light of day again, the boss is beautiful, and no man's land continues to work. Yesterday's desperate moment was forgotten. Oh, I have to say that mosquitoes in Xinjiang are very powerful. Oh, the gray mosquito is not big. They bite like death squads and never let go. They follow you in droves and greet you as soon as you stop. Fortunately, they were just stung.

Although the scenery in Xinjiang is no worse. . . But for a long time, I didn't even dare to listen to music when all was silent. The desolation and loneliness that can be experienced here are completely unknown in the mainland, especially in no man's land. If your heart is not strong enough, that feeling of isolation may make you unable to stay for a day. At that moment, you will miss home, family, relatives and friends crazily. We stayed in no man's land for a whole week, and when my brother returned to Yuli County, tears almost fell [tears] [tears] [tears] [tears].

20 18 10 a Gobi desert in Xinjiang.

Plant protection drone pesticide spraying industry has just begun to spread in 18 Xinjiang. It was still very profitable at that time. Two planes can probably do 1000 A Mu days and earn 1w+, provided that you are skilled and can bear hardships. We worked for about 20 days, and we basically drove around in the last week. Later, because of the epidemic and work, I never went to Xinjiang again, but my fellow villagers in Xinjiang called me every year and asked me to get some cotton medicine.

If you have a chance to go to Xinjiang, I recommend you to go to Dooku Highway, which is definitely the most beautiful highway in China, and there is no one. Tik Tok is full of pictures and filters. In some places, photos are more beautiful than real scenes, but the beauty of Dooku Highway is less than one tenth of hers.
