The speaker has no intention, the listener has the intention!
A word from the old bandit made me murmur in an instant: The spirit-chewing jellyfish in the water, according to the dakini, is a mutation of a blood-sucking jellyfish!
And this kind of monster is the first time everyone has encountered it, and no one knows its roots? Just know that it can turn ordinary corpses into that kind of evil soulless corpse!
After two days of raids on the floating river, this monster was like an indefatigable machine in the water, falling a hundred meters in front of the passenger ship.
We hurriedly hurried, and we were still unable to get closer to it. This gave us an illusion: it seems... this spirit devouring jellyfish knows we are tracking it
It brought us here on purpose...
In an instant, all sorts of distracting thoughts flashed through my mind, and the formidable ice waterfall gorge was imminent as the passenger ship approached.
The cold wind that seemed to be able to freeze everything, sandwiched between flakes of snowflakes, rushed out from the secluded Binggu Gorge, blew on the deck of the passenger ship, and landed on everyone, immediately making everyone look pale and uncertain.
This wind seems to be able to freeze the human soul!
Yu Mingjie kept rubbing his hands and wanted to walk towards Wen Fang, but he hesitated for a moment, then temporarily changed his direction and walked to the old bandit's side.
Following that, he hugged a bear, crouched and hid himself behind the old bandit, trying to use the old bandit to block the icy wind roaring from the front.
The old bandit was not stupid, his complexion was a little stagnant, and he immediately broke his little abacus, a beautiful place to spin, and directly put him on the bow of the boat.
Immediately, he was not allowed to react, and with his left hand, he copied the rope on the side, neatly tied Yu Mingjie with his hands and feet, and fixed it firmly to the bow of the ship.
Then, the old bandit grinned triumphantly, beckoned to us, and motioned for us to go and take shelter!
When Yu Mingjie's face turned black, he immediately became anxious, and hurriedly struggled hard!
But how is he an opponent of the old bandit
What's more, the cables on the ship are all eight-strand twisted chemical fiber cables with a dozen steel wires woven into the core. Even if the hacksaw wants to break, it will take a lot of trouble.
Right now, Yu Mingjie struggled a few times before giving up helplessly.
With hundreds of thousands of tons of snow on his head, he dared not ask for mercy under the majesty of the sky, he could only look at Wenfang aggrievedly, and motioned to her to say something quickly and let the old bandit put him down. !
I couldn't laugh or cry while watching: This old one and two guys are completely mixed up! When is it, and still in the mood to mess around here
Wen Fang's face was dark, and his right foot lightly stamped on the lower deck, hating iron and steel for the past to stop the two of them from fighting.
At this time, the passenger ship suddenly stopped in place, and Rapp seemed to have turned the steam turbine off!
I looked at the cabin curiously, and found that Rapp was waving to me on the cabin, as if to tell me what to do, and hurriedly pulled Meng Gantang and ran up.
"Brother Rapp, what's the matter?" I asked softly, glanced at the equipment in the control room, and became nervous: "Is it the passenger ship that has a problem?"
Rapp shook his head solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Little boss, the passenger ship can no longer use the steam turbine at this position. Otherwise, the roar of the propeller, coupled with the sound of the glacier canyon, even to some extent, It's more terrifying than gunfire. It will cause an avalanche 100%. We have to rely on us to paddle over the rest of the road."
After listening, I nodded my head very understandingly. In such a place, once an avalanche is encountered, the possibility of people surviving is almost zero. Rapp's consideration is correct.
I immediately ran to the deck and told everyone the news.
Therefore, under Rapp's arrangement, everyone went to the bottom of the cabin with great enthusiasm.
Due to the shutdown of the steam turbine, the ship temporarily lost electricity, and I was left on the deck of the bow by Rapp, carrying a spare battery navigation light, and concentrating on observing the waterway ahead.
Rapp said that it was the first time he encountered this cave-like glacial gorge. He was not very familiar with the waterway environment inside, and he did not know what would happen in it. He must always be vigilant. What is abnormal, immediately signal him with a flashlight.
The tunnel-like ice cave was sunken under layers of solid ice, and the bucket-like white ice wall was filled with silent depression.
Inside the ice cave, there are not many icicles and cones, and the smooth sides give people the illusion of being in the belly of an ancient python.
Rapp’s spare navigation light actually violated relevant regulations. It was exchanged on a transport ship from the downstream and inland through his trust relationship. Once it was turned on, the bright white light could shoot out dozens of meters away.
Backed by the four-sided barreled ice wall, for a while, I almost didn't need to look at it carefully. The situation of four or five meters underwater was revealed before my eyes!
Rapp was holding the joystick in the cabin, and when he noticed the situation outside, he pointed at me and asked me to adjust the angle of the navigation light upward.
I immediately raised the navigation light up to 30 degrees, and for an instant, the strong light reflected from the ice almost blinded my eyes.
I hurriedly pressed the head of the navigation light down again. At this moment, when I looked up at the top of the ice cave, a beautiful scene appeared in front of my eyes.
This ice cave should have been formed in prehistoric times. Layers of phosphorous on the ice surface extend upward, and the bottom is as pure as crystal, but if you look closely, the ice surface of the dome is not integrated, but formed in the middle. A fuzzy hollow area.
Due to the limitation of the viewing angle, I can't identify the specific drop in this hollow area, but there is a layer of fluid inside.
I was surprised and curious to fix the navigation light on the mast, and ran to the cabin to ask Rapp for advice. Are the ice in the ice water
If it is water, how can it appear between the two ice surfaces
Rapp craned his neck, observed carefully through the glass for a moment, then smiled at me: "Little boss, you don't know anything! It is said that our place was formed from the Ordovician..."
"At that time, the crustal activity was extremely violent. Later, it experienced two ice ages. The strong geological changes and the temperature drop caused some of the upper and lower layers of the water to be enveloped by extreme cold and quickly frozen into ice!"
"However, due to the relatively high temperature in the water at that time, the river water in the central part could not be condensed, and this strange ice-in-water was formed!"
"I heard that there are some big bosses outside who firmly believe that the river water inside the ice water contains some mysterious power, and they spend a lot of money to buy this big ice block that hides the water!"
Hearing what Rapp said, I immediately understood the origin of this kind of thing.
While sighing with the extraordinary craftsmanship of nature, he joked: "In my opinion, most of those who collect this kind of stuff have some problems in their brains! It is estimated that they didn't study geography well when they were in school, and they kept thinking about the mysterious abilities they acquired all day long. , What immortal..."
Lapp smiled and said solemnly: "Little boss, I can't agree with you! You guys say bullying the mountains and the water, there are so many unknown things in this world!"
"Those big bosses can mix to the point where they are now, and they can't be fools! There are indeed many strange things formed by natural forces like this in ancient times with mysterious powers!"
With that said, Rapp fixed the joystick, handed me a cigarette, and gave a related example:
He said that when he first entered the industry more than ten years ago, he had a relatively close relationship with an old ferryman who took a boat on a relatively gentle section of the river downstream.
At that time, their main purpose of running the boat was to allow Lapu to accumulate some experience on the water, so they mostly picked up the easy work of transporting herdsmen or livestock.
One day, the two of them met two very strange people. They carried a sealed box and were going to a ferry at the end of the downstream. The price was very high.
He and the old man made up for a while, took the business, and helped the two of them carry the box on the boat.
At that time, to reach the end of the downstream, the passenger ship had to wander on the river for another three or four days. In addition, Rapp was a relatively talkative person, and soon had a lively chat with the two passengers.
During the conversation, he mentioned the contents of the box.
The two boat passengers hesitated, and then looked around nervously. The god patted the box mysteriously and said to him: "Brother, our brothers shouldn't have said this to outsiders, but who would let us? Where are the three brothers?"
"Let's tell you, our brother came here to pan for gold. This time Grand Master opened his eyes and let us touch a treasure. This thing, if we go back, we will not worry about it in this life!"
When Lapu heard this, he was immediately very strange: Tibet is rich in various mineral resources, and there are a lot of illegal gold prospectors here, but because of the strict control at the top, few have returned with a full load!
But the tone of these two people is not small!
Even if you really get a box of gold, you can get four or five catties of pure gold when you go back and refine it. Once you go to the black market, it will cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars. (End of this chapter)
