Chapter 896 Let others struggle (2 updates
Entrusted by his children, Milo took a flight from the capital of Yemen to Dubai with frankincense and myrrh, then took a night flight back to the country. He arrived in Rome in the middle of the night and checked into a hotel first.
The security of the hotel is pretty good. I turned on my computer and went online. I searched all over the airlines and couldn’t find the information about Xiao Lele’s ticket purchase. The official Ethiopian transportation company also didn’t have her ticket purchase information. I checked again. There are still no clues found in hotels in the capital, indicating that Xiao Lele did not fly, take a car or stay in a hotel. He may have chartered a car to go somewhere, or camped in the wild, or went to a friend.
He couldn't find the information, and others trying to find Xiao Lele's whereabouts would also have no success, so he was relieved.
The kid was very clever. First he ordered a plane ticket and told others his whereabouts, but then he fired his gun. Then he went east and west, and then he didn't follow the planned route. Instead, he went to a country that was not in the plan. His whereabouts were so unpredictable that no one would want to find him. She must be so angry that she vomits blood.
He didn't know what Xiao Lele was looking for in Ethiopia, but he felt that children were relatively safe in Ethiopia.
The most dangerous places are probably Namibia and Country M. She does not have a visa for some countries, which means she may or may not go.
And she applied for visas for Namibia and Country M, which means she will definitely go there, but she doesn’t know when.
Presuming that the children would have a short stay in Ethiopia, Milo was not in a hurry. He took a nap until dawn and caught the earliest subway back to Florence. He took the things that Xiao Lele had entrusted to him back to his home and kept them under the best security measures. In the study room, I will take a flight to country D in the afternoon, and then take a direct flight from country D to Namibia to go to Namibia first.
When handsome guy Milo returned to Italy or transferred to Namibia, several groups of people were transferring from Namibia or South Africa to Ethiopia.
Little classmate Le Xiao sent the handsome Milo away because she didn’t want him to follow her so that he could move more easily. She also didn’t think about whether he would go somewhere to cut off his beard again, make up as a beautiful foreign girl, and rent a car to see big movies in Ethiopia. Narrow valley.
The Great Canyon of East Africa was formed due to crustal movement. It is recognized as the largest narrow valley in the world, with a length of more than 6,000 kilometers. From a high altitude, it looks like a scar on the earth, and the scar is still growing at a slight rate every year. Scientists say it may split Africa into two continents again.
The road to the Grand Canyon is an asphalt road. The road condition is good and the traffic speed is also good. The car that takes Le Le to see the Grand Canyon takes three minutes to reach the foot of a mountain that is the favorite place for tourists to climb to the top to see the Grand Canyon. He got the fare and left first, stopping by to see if there was anyone hiking who needed a ride.
Africa is a tribal country, and Ethiopia is also a tribal country. People’s pursuit of life is to have enough to eat. Except for big cities, most residents’ houses are very simple. Many houses in towns have iron roofs. Tribal houses are made of stone and mud. Or they are surrounded by branches and covered with thatch on their heads. Some are very beautiful, with dome-shaped roofs on the houses, and some are simple shacks.
Shack-like houses can be seen everywhere in the valleys and plains on both sides of the Great Narrow Valley. Some places have more residents, and some places have only three or two families. Because the tribes are sparse, most people still follow the primitive way of life, and the popularity of education across the country is not high.
Le Yun put on dark skin and pretended to be an American. Carrying a large backpack with a tent, sleeping bag, food, etc., she pretended to be a backpacker and climbed up the gentle slope of the mountain.
September is the harvest season in Ethiopia, followed by the months-long dry season, which is also the most suitable for travel. Travelers from all over the world come to Ethiopia to see the Great Narrow Valley, various ruins, and Dana in Ethiopia. There are active volcanoes in the Gir Valley, so there are travelers in every scenic area.
While climbing a mountain, Leyun met several backpackers. Most of the tourists from all over the world were very friendly, especially the backpackers who were also travelers. They often said hello, talked, and occasionally helped each other.
In order not to become an outlier, Lexiao students climbed the mountain at a normal speed and climbed along the hillside to the relatively flat top of the mountain. They saw a narrow valley between the mountains under the sky. The bottom of the valley was a rushing river. It was the largest narrow valley in Ethiopia. Both sides of the bank are either basalt rocks or plains, and there are few pure desert areas through which the narrow valley passes.
Looking from one side of the valley, the other side is either full of stone mountains or small flat plains, where you can still see cattle, sheep or people. There are some plants growing on the red clay plain below the mountains, and there are tribal houses among the plants. There are cattle, sheep, donkeys, horses, camels, and on some mountains there are cattle belonging to the tribesmen and their cattle herders.
Standing on the hilltop next to the big narrow valley, it felt like the sky was low and the mountains were high. Le Yun observed the sky and the earth, raised the camera to take pictures, and then slowly moved towards the distance to take pictures of what she was interested in. Stay away from the scenery and plants, away from the crowd, and immediately and secretly collect seedlings of medicinal plants.
There are countless plants in the Great Valley, and because Ethiopia is a plateau with changeable terrain, the unique environment creates unique species. There are many wild animals and plants with regional characteristics in various parts of Ethiopia.
Little Loli is looking for a plant with leaves that look a bit like lettuce leaves and a tall tree that looks like a palm tree.
Find the place where the plants grow, wander around during the day, wait until the people and cattle come down from the mountain in the evening, quietly dig up plant seedlings, dig up two trees, one male and one female, and then pick some leaves and flowers in areas with dense plants. Calyx leaves, and dig up some roots.
Find the most important plants, stay in the space for one night, and return to the capital of Ethiopia the next day. Walk over the mountains and ridges by yourself, digging for plants while walking. In some areas, you will move motorcycles out of the space and ride around. In addition to meditating at night, , the rest of the time is spent on the road, and if you smell a special fragrance wherever you go, quickly look for it.
As we walked on, time entered December, and we didn’t return to the Ethiopian capital until the early morning of December 4. Instead of going to the city, we went straight to the airport. We put away the motorcycle very close to the airport and returned to the space to wash off the dirty clothes. Rong Shu, rest until near dawn, then leave the space and go to the airport refreshed.
The little Loli walked for a while in the dark, rushed to the airport at dawn, entered the terminal openly, and purchased a flight ticket for the same day to Mekelle, the capital of Tigray state on the border between Ethiopia and Ecuador.
The plane stopped selling tickets one hour before departure. She bought the ticket within ten minutes before the ticket sales stopped, then went to check-in and boarded the plane half an hour in advance.
It took less than 20 minutes for the little girl to buy a plane ticket and stay in the Ethiopian capital for several days. A technician who paid attention to the airport network information every day found the information and immediately sent out a message to inform people to rush to Tigray. Milo, who is in the country of Namibia, woke up early to check air traffic information and found out that the child who had been missing for four days had just appeared and flew from the capital of Ethiopia to the northern city less than ten minutes after the plane took off. It was extremely shocking. Melancholy, why did Xiao Lele go to Mekelle, Ethiopia? Want to go to Dhanaji Valley?
To be honest, there are no rare medicinal materials in the Danaji Valley. There are only two magical craters. What is Xiao Lele looking for there?
Looking for sulfur solids containing extremely toxic sulfides?
Of course, those are not important. What is important is whether he wants to go there or not?
After thinking about it, he felt that it was too late for him to rush over now. Xiao Lele's methods of avoiding being followed were not weak. It would take at least two days for him to rush to the capital of Ethiopia and then to the Danaj Valley, and it would be difficult to find Xiao Lele. Xiao Lele refused to be protected by bodyguards sent by Mr. Ferrari, so he must have some countermeasures to deal with unknown dangers.
Miró was impressed by his children's superb skills in utilizing plants. He returned to his country with frankincense and myrrh. Not to mention Yemen, which was relatively backward after all. The instruments in Dubai were all top-notch, and no traces were detected. Similarly, even the police dogs did not smell the odor, and they entered Rome safely when they returned, which is enough to show how clever Xiao Lele is at hiding plant juice.
According to the child's intelligence, if anyone wants to assassinate her secretly, he will worry about the danger of the killer himself, unless extraordinary means are used, such as gang crime, finding the person's whereabouts and sniping.
Another example is to use helicopters to search for her at all costs, sniper from high altitude or throw grenades, and kill everyone near her together. This will also be condemned by the whole world and may be internationally wanted by other countries.
After analysis, Milo chose to believe in his child. After all, even the Chinese military allowed her to travel around the world. Her ability to protect herself must be worthy of trust.
While the handsome guy Milo was struggling, Le Yun sat on the small plane heading to Mekele City, reading a book silently and complaining silently, by the way, the Amharic writing in Ethiopia is too complicated, isn't it? Is it difficult to write?
As a Chinese descendant who grew up writing square and square Chinese characters, I am used to the beautiful image of Chinese characters, and I find it troublesome to write in English. For characters such as Arabic characters twisted with rattan and Ethiopian Amharic characters. If you really can’t fall in love, even if you have a big brain, it’s very troublesome to remember.
In comparison, Le Yun feels that although Egyptian script is very esoteric and difficult to understand, at least the symbols are pictograms and are not intimidating to look at. Arabic script and Ethiopian Amharic script are really tadpole scripts. You can easily tell them at a glance. Feeling dazzled.
God knows how much effort she put into learning Arabic. She did not give up halfway because of the Socotra Island in Yemen. In order to go to that magical island to find rare plants and the dates in Arabia, she worked hard to learn Arabic. language.
I wanted to learn ancient Egyptian to understand the real secrets of mummies, so I bit the bullet and memorized ancient Egyptian. In fact, most modern Egyptians are descendants of Arabs and speak Egyptian Arabic, which is slightly different from Arabic. But the origin is one family.
As for African tribal languages, she has never thought about learning them, but her brother Chao is amazing. He can speak two pure African tribal languages, one is Amharic from Ethiopia, and the other is Zulu from South Africa. I also speak a little Malagasy, the language of Madagascar.
The reason why I read books in the local language of Ethiopia is purely because I passed by a tribal residential area on the way back to the Ethiopian capital from the Grand Canyon a few days ago. I really liked their clay pots and wanted to trade them, but the tribesmen only knew Amha. Layu didn’t understand English, and she herself didn’t understand Amharic. It took her a long time to figure it out. In order to go shopping for some pottery among the Ethiopian tribes, she decided to learn Amharic, the most popular language in Ethiopia.
The book was purchased at the terminal. It had English translations but no letter pronunciations. Le Yun could only memorize Amharic words and sentences in English, while complaining that the words were jerky and difficult to remember.
From the capital of Ethiopia to the capital of Tigray, the small plane flew for about 100 minutes. After landing, it was only around eight o'clock in the morning. Ethiopian time is based on six o'clock in European time, which is after local dawn, so eight o'clock Duo Zhong is around two o'clock a day in local time.
There is little rain during the dry season, and the weather is sunny. The sun has already shone on the urban and rural areas of Mekele. Buses to and from the airport and passenger cars are waiting for passengers at the terminal.
Tigray is the most common area where Mharra is spoken among tribesmen in Ethiopia, because Mekele is close to the Danakil Valley in Afar State and is an intermediate stop for travelers. The capital of Erzhou has many people traveling to the valley.
There have been incidents in the Danakil Valley where travelers were shot dead and taken hostage by terrorists, which had a great negative impact on the local tourism industry. In order to ensure the safety of travelers, the government departments sent troops to protect the travel groups going to the Danakil Valley throughout the entire process. , the small village that must be passed on the way to the valley is the gathering point, and there are guards checking there. The travel team needs at least two cars to set off, and there are also soldiers stationed in the volcanic area to implement controls to prevent terrorists from attacking tourists.
Le Yun’s original intention was to travel alone and not to join a group. So, even on the plane and when buying the ticket, she didn’t say she was going to a certain depression. Instead, she said she wanted to see obelisks and archaeological sites and go to activities. Plant protection park.
We took a taxi from the airport terminal in Mekele to the city. We saw the beautiful scenery on the way, so we got off the car and went to the outskirts of the city to take pictures of the scenery. We turned to a hill full of plants and hid under a green tree for reconnaissance. After the situation, he returned to the space to disguise himself, dyed his skin all over again light brown, and put on a wig permed into the most common afro hairstyle in Europe and America.
The little fox was already accustomed to the way little human girls always made her look like she was beyond recognition, so he simply didn't express any opinion and just let her look like a different bird.
Le Xiao’s classmate, who had plastic surgery to look like a hot-eyed girl, put on a loose shirt and jeans, tied the clothes into a knot at the waist, took voice-changing pills that can make the voice thicker, changed into a backpack of another color, and stuffed clothes into the bag , bread and water, as well as some books, pens and paper, and mineral water.
Carrying a cross-shoulder backpack with essentials in front of me, and hanging a camera around my neck, I felt good about myself, scouting out that there was no one nearby and leaving the space.
After arriving in the wild, we continued walking, walked around a mountain and then walked onto the main road. We caught a taxi and carpooled with others to the city of Mekelle. In the taxi were two middle-aged people from Europe, a man and a woman. Their purpose was to go to the Danakil Depression. I saw the volcano and the salt pond, and I heard that the girl was traveling alone, and I gave her great praise.
Arriving in the city, the fare is AA. The middle-aged couple has to go to the hotel. Their tour guide will soon pick them up and take them to a certain village to meet up. They say goodbye to the middle-aged couple. The little loli specially goes to a hotel pointed out by the driver. Visit the cheap trading market.
