To our surprise, the first person to fall was Wenfang, who has always been healthy!
In the early morning of the third day when the passenger ship sailed out of the ice cave, it truly entered the vast and deep belly of the Ali area. The river surface surged suddenly, the moon was faint and the stars were pale, and the dark clouds rolled back. A flat boat has little place on the deck.
Under this vast natural majesty, everyone is really like'mountains and rivers are shattered and howling, like floating dust and rain hitting Pingping', in this situation, they only feel three souls fluttering, seven souls are vague, how can you care about the others
Everyone spontaneously got into the cabin and tried every means to fix themselves on the ship, lest they would be thrown into the violent water by the bumpy hull in the next second.
Wen Fang had serious seasickness. He wandered along the river for half a month, although with tenacious willpower, he overcame his physical defects abruptly.
But in the face of this kind of earth-shaking and dangerous situation, it is not helpful for her to exert her subjective initiative!
After waiting to be dragged by me and rushing into the cabin with an indifferent face, he fell in my arms, closed his sharp eyes, and fainted.
This situation lasted for four or five hours. When the sky broke, the sound of howling ghosts and wolves slowly stopped. The sky was covered with layers and densely pressed, and the clouds that were trying to destroy the sky and the earth had not yet dissipated.
The scorching sun engulfed the mighty sky, but it was just a faint light from the tumbling and roaring clouds, which suddenly and dimmed to the helpless creatures in the snow-capped mountains, bringing a glimmer of hope of life!
We walked out of the cabin in embarrassment one after another, the crazy river water has calmed our inner anger, and the weak sky light sprinkled on the front of the passenger ship, glowing with bright light!
I fixed my eyes and saw that on the river in front of me, pieces of floating ice of various sizes floated from somewhere, and when I looked far away, a long river of hanging ice came into view immediately!
Rapp has a strong sense of responsibility. From the early morning gusty wind to the raging waves, he rushed to the cabin without hesitation, holding the rudder shirtless to maintain the stability of the hull.
At this moment, after seeing the calm and calm, he walked to the deck with a tired face and explained to me: "Little boss, from here on, it is already in the range of the Gangdise Mountains. If I remember correctly, we just have to keep going. Walk along this river, and at the end is Mount Kailash!"
Hearing this, my spirits instantly lifted up: "Is going to Mount Kailash soon?"
"Unexpectedly, I thought it would take ten and a half months to float at least! Brother Lapu, then, these big ice cubes floated over from Gang Rinpoche?"
After listening, Lapp shook his head and smiled, and said to me: "Little boss, how can it be so easy? The whole site is more than 1,000 kilometers north and south of Mount Gangdisi. Ten days and a half months may not be enough, but eight or nine days is definitely Can't run!"
"Furthermore, these floating ice from upstream poses a great threat to passenger ships. Steam turbines must be deactivated, and the time to reach Mount Kailash may be longer than you estimated. what!"
I was surprised and said, "Brother Rapp, what are you talking about? The steam turbine has to be shut down again?"
"Oh, I said, why do you make a steam turbine more expensive than a human? You can't use it in the ice cave, and this damn damn Pingchuan can't be used anymore? Are there some small ice cubes? Isn't your warehouse equipped with icebreakers? Isn't it all right when you hang it to the bow?"
"I'll tell you, you have seen the situation of Captain Wenda, so you lost half your life in the storm last night! If you come here a few more times, in case there is something wrong, I, who the hell will I find to cry? ?"
"What happened?"
My voice became more and more excited, and I brought in the old bandit who was holding a wet leg of lamb distressedly and licking my lips and sending it to my mouth.
The old guy walked over, pushed me away, and yelled, "Hey, I said, you stinky boy, are you bullying Lapu again? Grandma is a bear, I'm so worried, come on. Come, follow me to practice later!"
While talking, the old bandit rolled his arms and sleeves and was about to pull me back!
I shook off the hand he grabbed angrily, pointing to my nose and cursing: "Damn, there is no tiger in the mountains, you are the tortoise bastard! Don't play with me here, tell you, I really want to practice, I can do it with one hand. I've scrapped you!"
The old bandit was scolded by me, and immediately became angry. He yelled and rushed forward, and he wanted to share life and death with me!
I was too lazy to mess around with him, hurriedly hid, jumped onto the bow, and said loudly: "Fuck, a good dog doesn't bite people. If something goes wrong, I'm not in the mood to play tricks with you! Tell you, Brother Rapp is thinking again. So let's go rowing, tell me, what is his grandma's job?"
"boating?"
The old bandit shuddered instantly when he heard the words, and said with lingering fear: "Oh, my dear brother, you, you want to toss me! To be honest, I came out of the ice cave two days ago, my brother. This pair of arms is so dangerous that it hasn't been scrapped... This steam turbine is so good, isn't it running out of fuel?"
Seeing that both of us reacted so violently, Rapp told us helplessly:
Generally, in such harsh water conditions, some ferocious aquatic creatures are likely to be lurking under the ice floes. Especially in the glacial lakes in the Ngari area, there are many special "Xueshanxuezi" hiding tracks.
This kind of snow mountain beetroot is a kind of "attachment" unique to snow mountain glaciers, much like the often rumored Cordyceps sinensis, which is neither animal nor plant.
If it is on a snowy mountain, this kind of thing is called the snow mountain beard by the locals. It often takes the shape of a long black beard, densely covered with white snow. From a distance, it looks like a'snow mountain' has grown.' 'Beards' do not have the ability to act autonomously.
Moreover, this snow mountain mustard is also an extremely precious medicinal material in the Tibetan medicine system, which can treat many diseases, and some people call it snow mountain ginseng!
However, once this thing enters the water with the help of wind, it will quickly transform into a frightening aquatic monster—Xueshanzi!
Lapp told us that when he came to Gang Rinpoche for a blind date a few years ago, he traveled by water and passed along the banks of the Maquan River. He had the unlucky encounter with such a snowy mountain!
Xueshanzi's body structure is awkward, and the whole body resembles a starfish living in the deep sea, with a head and no body, like a flat suction cup, and its skin is crystal-like.
After entering the water, this almost transparent body will be integrated with the water, and the concealment between actions is extremely strong.
However, this thing moves very slowly, and under instinct urges, after entering the water, it will often find a piece of floating ice floating on the surface of the water, attached to it, like a thin layer of ice flakes.
Even if you observe carefully, it is extremely difficult to find the deeds of this thing!
This thing is to use this special talent to swim with the ice floating in the river and prey on the fish and shrimps of the past.
It's just that this thing also has a characteristic, that is, it loves to eat human blood!
Whenever you sniff the popularity, you will follow it, and before the victim knows it, quietly clinging to his body, slowly eating away the blood of the human body!
The person who is upper body of this kind of monster, because of its strange track, and while sucking human blood, will release a special toxin, which can numb people's nerves.
Therefore, the victims often don't know it until they die, and the degree of danger is, in one aspect, even too wolves, tigers and leopards, mountain spirits and wild monsters.
After talking about the origin of this snow mountain beard, Rapp told us about his experience:
According to him, when he came here by boat, he walked on the southern foot of the Gangdise Mountains. The environment was much better than ours. It was a fertile land with thousands of miles and flocks of cattle and sheep.
However, due to the proximity to the snow-capped mountains, there is also a lot of floe siltation in the river!
The ship he was on was a merchant ship from downstream to here. In addition to a few businessmen in partnership, there was also an experienced old man on board.
When the merchant ship sailed into the white mountain peaks, the old ferryman told them about this snow mountain monster, suggesting that they abandon the wheel and use human power to drive the merchant ship.
Because when the wheel is running, the drainage channel at the tail is open!
This kind of monster can easily get into the interior of the merchant ship from the drainage channel. When the time comes, it is simply impossible to guard against, and someone may be recruited at any time!
However, at that time, the few businessmen were eager to pass through Gang Rinpoche and went to the border town on the other side of the mountain to pan for gold, so they rejected the old Dufu's proposal.
What happened after that was not far from what the old Dufu had expected: Soon, there were two people on the boat with the way of this snow-capped monster!
Fortunately, the old husband has been paying attention to this matter, and promptly discovered that their bodies were somewhat abnormal, and he was so cruel and cut out their flesh and arms, only then did they save their lives in a dangerous and dangerous way... (End of this chapter)
