Hailancha said that an expedition team from the East brought a lot of equipment to investigate here. As for the specific investigation, it is not clear. In the bitter cold place, there are eight months of winter in a year, and there are ice caps everywhere. In summer, there are mud swamps everywhere. On the two to three million square kilometers of land, more than half is forest. There is the kingdom of animals. Even the locals dare not go too deep into the jungle.
Li Muye asked him where those people had gone.
Five hundred kilometers to the northeast, the mysterious Putorana Plateau is hidden in the vast virgin forest. "Putoran" means "kingdom of cliffs on the shore lake" in the Ewenki language. Hailancha said that there is a high altitude, dense jungle and extremely harsh climate.
Li Muye asked Zhang Fenglai what is our purpose. Little evil came to observe the water and see the mountain, and after comparing it on the map, he finally concluded that the purpose of this trip was that place. Li Muye immediately decided, let's go there for a stroll.
It is best to find someone who is familiar with the local environment as a guide for this kind of thing.
The Ewenki people are the best guides in the forest. Especially good at hunting. In addition to using shotguns, he also uses various hunting methods such as hunting, traps, gun piercing, arrow shooting, dog catching, clamps, nets, poisoning, and explosives. Ewenki children have been hunting with adults since they were young. They can test guns at the age of 12 and hunt with their fathers and brothers. They learn how to fight squirrels and then big beasts. You can hunt alone when you are sixteen or seventeen, and most of them have become excellent hunters when they are young.
The males in the entire village are good hunters, but the best one is Hailancha’s son Bayar. It's a pity that he has already followed the previous expedition team. The skills in the Bayar jungle were learned by Uncle Hailancha, so the old man's skills would naturally not be bad. The only problem is that the old man is a little older and he is reluctant to accept this job.
He has a lot of reindeer and sled dogs. There are only three men left in the family. They are him, another son, and Bayar’s 18-year-old son Kachin. According to him, his second son met the Amur Devil a few years ago and was bitten off an arm, basically saying goodbye to his hunting career. This so-called Amur devil is a wild Siberian tiger that is notorious for the locals. The reason why it is called the devil is because this tiger is golden in color and lacks black stripes on the body of normal tigers.
When Li Muye heard it, he thought that this was a strange beast called Biao.
During the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, it was revered as ";Northern Wenxiong";,";A generation of Wenzong"; Yuan Haowen recorded such a short story in "Guixin Miscellaneous Knowledge": "; Proverb: The tiger gives birth to three sons, and there must be a tiger Biao is the most evil, and he can eat tigers. Yu Wenhunter said: Where a tiger crosses the water with his three sons, and considers that the child will be eaten by Biao first, he must first bear the other side of the past, and then he will come back to the other side. If you regain it, you will return to Yan again, and finally you will go to Yan. The cover is very defensive, lest you eat your son.";
Biao is the most evil little tiger of Husheng's three sons. Usually the female tiger only gives birth to two cubs, and very occasionally, a third cub is born. This is the tiger.
Biao is thin and weak due to congenital malnutrition. He is only covered with brown hair without the black streaks of tiger skin. The tigress did not recognize such a child, did not feed it, kicked and drove it away, and even abandoned it to the barren land infested by hungry wolves. The king of tigers and beasts, Xiao Biao, who was chased and killed by the tiger, of course became the enemy of all the beasts and suffered much humiliation. So Biao usually die during breastfeeding and rarely survives.
But once he survived, Na Biao was extremely powerful and cruel. Although it grows up in a purgatory environment, it is often hungry to eat dead leaves and grasses, animal carcasses, gnaw dirt and stones, and drink sewage and dirty springs. In spite of the old scars and new injuries all the year round, in order to survive, he had to learn to fly mountains, cross streams, climb trees, climb vines, and fight against beasts larger and more brutal than himself. It finally grew up tormented and conquered all the dangers in its life. The cry is like howling a wolf, like a lion roar, and possesses the coldest and most venomous nature of each beast. And its first target was the mother tiger who had wanted to kill it, followed by the two siblings favored by the tiger reserve.
It has no emotions. Because life only gave it hatred, hatred of all the beasts, especially the giant beast that dominates the forest. Whenever a bully appears, it will come upon hearing the wind, but the bloody battle is not for contention. After fighting, they often have no time to lick blood and sing wounds, and then rush to another battlefield. It is often injured and does not have a complete fur, nor can it find an unbroken bone after death, but it has extraordinary vitality, and a surviving Ye Biaoqishou is comparable to an old tortoise.
Helanza said that the Amur devil likes to be active in the jungle this season, and Plantona is its kingdom. Without adequate preparation, even local hunters would not risk going deep there. The previous expedition team had more than a dozen marsh tracked vehicles, pulled a lot of equipment, and there were many personnel and weapons, so he agreed to his son to go. The three of Li Muye obviously did not meet the standard of adequate preparation he recognized.
Although Li Muye gave extremely generous terms, the old man just refused to agree, just insisting on the terrible Amur devil. It is also said that if the three are only here for adventure and adventure, they don't actually have to go to Plantona. They also have a lot of fun in the mountainous woodlands nearby. You might as well stay and play for a few days. Li Muye readily agreed.
Hailancha’s wife and two daughter-in-laws are typical Ewenki women, hardworking, capable, and few words. For adult Ewenki women, the lifestyles of women in the civilized world are remote and boring. They don’t use cosmetics or care about dressing. Dressing up, because they never take care of their figure and the structure of their food is single, each of them is five big and three thick. Don’t look at the long and unremarkable, they are absolutely unambiguous when they work. Killing an animal is just a matter of peeling it off. Half an hour's work.
Li Muye is most concerned about eating. As the first instinctive need of mankind, all ethnic groups will instinctively find ways to make food more palatable on the basis of fullness.
The food of the Ewenki people is mainly meat, which is basically the same as that of the Yakuts. Fish and caviar, grilled reindeer meat and salted reindeer meat, combined with the local specialty blueberry wine, is the supreme enjoyment for them.
Hailancha's wife is good at making roasted reindeer meat. After tasting it, Li Muye found that the taste was not bad. I specially looked at the seasoning she used. Except for the pink rock salt used locally, she didn't put anything else, and the pine branches used for barbecue.
The seasoning is simple, but the taste is excellent. Sure enough, he complied with that sentence, and tasted nature is the essence of cooking.
There is no restriction on the legal age of marriage, and there are many people who get married in their teens. Lao Hailancha was less than 60 years old, but he had a 16-year-old grandson who came back from outside with a group of dogs while eating. His skin was rough and dark, and he looked like a middle-aged 30-year-old man. Only one pair of eyes were black and bright, with the curiosity and impulse of a teenager.
The little evil comes as a child from the mountain. Although the education and training received from childhood is not the same, the nature of the teenager is close. Kachin only speaks the national language, and the little evil comes only in Chinese. Although the two speak the same as the duck. , But even the communication with gestures does not seem to be a big obstacle.
In the evening, Li Muye and Xiaofen returned to the car for the night, Xiao Elai took the initiative to stay in their tent, and continued to talk with the young man Bingzhuye.
Although there is no tour guide, Li Muye does not intend to change the original plan. Hailancha said that he walked more than 100 kilometers along the highway along the river to reach the city of Krasnoyarsk. You can also find professional guides and their car camps in the mountains for the necessary equipment. It is definitely the first choice for travelers who come to Central Siberia.
The dogs in the village kept barking at night, and the two of them could not sleep. Li Muye personally checked the supplies in the car, determined what needs to be supplemented and returned to the car after tomorrow's itinerary. I chatted a few words with Xiaofen, who was also unable to fall asleep, until the latter half of the night, accompanied by the constant barking of dogs, fell asleep.
The next morning, Li Muye prepared some food and spirits, and went to bid farewell to the Hailancha family in person, and by the way, he greeted Xiaogui to prepare to go on the road. In the end, he was surprised to find that Xiao Elai had disappeared, and the boy was missing at the same time. Hailancha recalled that the two teenagers slept in the same room last night and communicated with each other by gestures and gestures. They kept making noise until the latter half of the night. The others had already fallen asleep and no one paid attention to their movements.
Li Muye changed his mind for a moment, and could slightly imagine what was going on, so he carefully searched in the tent, and found a note left by them unsurprisingly.
Xiao Elai wrote in his own hand: Uncle, Sister Fen, please forgive me for not saying goodbye for the time being. I went into the mountain with Kachin. Last night, we two became brothers. We discussed how to use the reindeer to pull a wooden plow into the mountain. I helped him find his father, and he helped me find treasure by the way.
He has more than a dozen Caucasian hounds, and he is also good at driving wooden plow carts. The two of us can talk very well. I am not saying that I can’t talk to you two, but I think you adults always have many and very different ideas. It’s complicated, and my idea is very simple. It’s rare to make a friend. Now his father has lost contact. He is worried that the Ewenki people sometimes walk in the mountains for a few months, but they will never forget to report safety with their family. He thought it was unusual, so I thought I should help him.
And he also hopes to help me find the treasure I want. I think this is a pretty good decision. I believe we will be a great combination and can take care of ourselves. In three days, I won’t be able to use my cell phone, and you don’t have to try to contact me. Three days later, we have reached the depths of the mountain. You two can scold me whatever you want, but please believe that I will bring you something unusual. Look.
Adolescents often act unexpectedly. Both of them are bold and brave. It is the age when a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and when the Dapeng spreads its wings and hates the sky, once a decision is formed in his mind, there is no concept of consequences at all. The two ran away overnight, and it is estimated that they have already walked into the old forest for a long time.
Li Muye translated the little evil words to Old Hailancha. The old man was anxious after hearing it, and he slammed his chest and said: "How is this good? How good is this?" Li Muye asked him, "You It doesn't work if you are in a hurry now, think about it quickly, how can you catch up with these two kids as quickly as possible?"
Hailancha hurried out of the tent and ran with the reindeer pen, Li Muye and Xiaofen followed. After a round of inspection, Lao Hailancha frowned and said, "The two little babies were afraid of being caught up by us. They cut the leather straps. It will take more than an hour to replace them with new ones. Most of the jerky has been taken away, and they are freshly roasted. It will take a few more hours to catch up."
Li Muye asked: "Then do you know which direction they will go from? Can my car drive in?"
"It's absolutely impossible!" Hailancha categorically denied: "Old Linzi has a suitable route for caterpillar vehicles, but in this season you must also walk carefully. No one can save it if you fall into the swamp. My reindeer is here. Best of all, now, apart from airplanes, no other modern vehicles can catch up with them."
Xiaofen has been taking care of Xiao E as her own brother. At the moment, she was a little anxious. She grabbed Li Muye’s hand and said, "Uncle, please ask him, where can we rent a plane? Xiao Elai and the boy I've been walking all night, and this mountain is so dangerous, I'm worried that it will be too late."
Li Muye calmly comforted her and said, "You treat him as your own child, so some cares are messy. You know the ability of small evils. That child is also a good hunter. These two children are not good at hunting in a short time. What's the big problem? The most important thing for us now is to stay calm and find the right means of transportation as quickly as possible."
"Go to Krasnoyarsk." Helanza said, "Going there should not contradict their route. When you get there, you can buy everything you need!"
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and get on the road." Li Muye made a decisive decision.
Hailan Cha said: "I will show you the way..." (End of this chapter)
