After successfully solving the small episode on the road, the program team finally arrived at the camp at eleven o'clock in the evening.
It has just snowed, the sky is clear, and the night sky is full of stars, reflecting the snow under your feet.
Originally, several artists were still worried that the program team would let them live in tents in the ice and snow. Unexpectedly, the accommodation environment prepared by the program team was far beyond their expectations—in a sheltered mountain, dozens of yurts were connected together. The area of each roof is 20 to 30 square meters! From a distance, the entire white yurt looks like a huge palace, magnificent.
"This is... a yurt?" Yan Changhui said with great interest, "I lived in a yurt when I was filming in Mongolia before, and it was quite interesting!"
"Mr. Yan, don't say that in front of the owner." Su Jishi smiled, "This is the Kazakh 'yu'. It does look like a yurt on the outside, but there are certain differences in the decoration of the roof and the outer wall. .”
For tourists who are not familiar with the customs of Xinjiang, they will always confuse the difference between these two kinds of yurts. However, as an old geological dog, Su Jishi would do his homework before going out into the field to avoid offending the taboos of the local people.
The yurt reserved for the five guests is the most gorgeous one among them.
It looks ordinary on the outside, but after entering, everyone couldn't help but "wow-" up.
The floor was covered with a gorgeous and thick woolen carpet, which felt a little prickly to step on with bare feet, but was extremely comfortable. Wall felts with a length and width of more than two meters are hung on the wall. Each piece has a different color, which can not only keep warm, but also be used as decoration. In addition, there are some musical instruments and utensils that they can't name, hanging on the wall, which makes everyone dizzy.
There is a small round table on the ground in the middle, five small floor mats are placed beside the table, and a camera has been set up next to it.
Seeing this formation, everyone of course understands that this yurt will be their main interior location for the next few days.
Because it was too late, the originally scheduled "mission assignment" session was moved to the next day for filming, leaving the artists to rest tonight.
…
In Keketuohai in winter, the sun does not rise until half past nine. If the time difference is subtracted, it is equivalent to about 7:30 in the inland area. Winter in Xinjiang is so cold that almost no one gets up before sunrise. Even after getting up, I still have to spend some time with the bed.
But Su Jishi never had the habit of staying in bed. Her biological clock was very punctual, and she opened her eyes before dawn, and when the bright red morning light appeared on the horizon, she had packed up and went out for a walk in good spirits.
When she got up, she accidentally woke up Xiaoxia. Seeing that she was about to go out, Xiaoxia got up from the bed with sleepy eyes, obviously staggered from sleepiness, but followed her stubbornly like a little tail.
Su Jishi reached out to wipe off the dirt from the corners of her eyes: "If you're sleepy, go back to sleep, don't follow me, I'll just walk around."
Xiaoxia shook her head: "No! If you are left alone, I don't know what's going to happen to you. You saved the wild dogs yesterday, but you won't save the bears today?"
"...no bears here."
"It could also be a wolf, a deer, a silly roe deer, or something like that!"
While speaking, Xiaoxia shuddered, as if she had foreseen Su Jishi being surrounded by wolves.
Su Jishi really couldn't get rid of this little tail, so he could only take her out of the room together.
Pushing open the heavy curtain door of the yurt, the white and cold air came oncoming. The temperature here is extremely low, minus 30 to 40 degrees is commonplace, and this coldness is mixed with the humidity of ice and snow. When you take a deep breath, you can even feel the cold air flow into the lungs along the trachea and soak the whole body.
Xiaoxia shuddered, and the last trace of drowsiness was frozen away.
The camp was silent, and the ground was covered with ruts and footprints, the way they had walked when they came yesterday.
Su Jishi wrapped his two layers of down jacket tightly, put on his hat, mask, and sunglasses, found the right direction, and walked out of the camp.
Although the morning light was dark, the surroundings were still bright and dazzling under the reflection of the snow.
The two walked in the snow for more than 20 minutes. Xiaoxia asked blankly, "Sister Su, where are you going?"
She originally thought that Su Jishi was just wandering around the camp, but she walked straight all the way, obviously locked on the direction of the destination. Driving in the snow, this reminded Xiaoxia of the tragic experience of being thrown to the suburbs by Mr. Mu to freeze in the suburbs. Xiaoxia shuddered, feeling pitiful, weak and helpless.
"arrive."
Su Jishi suddenly spoke.
After turning the last mountain pass, the eyes suddenly opened up.
Xiaoxia looked at the scenery in front of her in surprise, not knowing what words to use to describe it.
There are many mountains and mountains, stretching infinitely. But between the mountains, there is an extremely abrupt groove that runs through every mountain. It was as if an invisible giant swung a huge ax and split the mountains.
That trench is extremely narrow and long, and if you take a helicopter to look down from above, you will find that it stretches for nearly two hundred kilometers. Under its influence, rivers diverted, basins collapsed, boulders collapsed, and water flooded into lakes.
This is the destination of the Su Jishi trip - the Keketuohai earthquake fault zone.
And the earthquake that tore such a big "wound" on the ground has an intensity of magnitude eight—equal to the Wenchuan earthquake.
"A magnitude 8 earthquake?!" Xiaoxia trembled, "We just experienced a tsunami and a volcanic eruption last month, wouldn't we be so unlucky to be hit by an earthquake?"
Su Jishi laughed at her timidity: "This earthquake happened in 1930s, nearly 90 years ago. You, don't worry about it."
Xiaoxia still looked at the cliff in fear.
When it comes to the two most famous geological wonders in Keketuohai, the "Earthquake Fault Zone" should be ranked before the "No. 3 Lode".
Because Xinjiang is sparsely populated and there is little precipitation, the fault zone has survived 90 years of wind and frost, and it is still very intact, which is a unique spectacle in the world.
It has great value in geological scientific research. If the occasion is not wrong, Su Jishi would like to take out a pen and paper and start drawing the "Occurrence Map".
Xiaoxia asked: "Actually, I've always wondered, did the earthquake shake up and down, or left and right?"
Su Jishi replied: "Both up and down, left and right, and up and down, left and right together."
"..."
Su Jishi: "This has something to do with seismic waves."
Xiaoxia's question immediately aroused Su Jishi's enthusiasm for being a teacher. When she was studying, she also worked as a teaching assistant for the professor and answered the questions of the freshmen!
Su Jishi patiently explained: "You know, the core of an earthquake is several thousand meters underground, and its vibration will be transmitted from the ground to the surface. This kind of shock wave is called 'body wave', and the body wave is divided into two types: transverse wave and longitudinal wave. kind.
"The transverse wave means shaking left and right, and the longitudinal wave means shaking up and down. Because the longitudinal wave travels the fastest, every time there is an earthquake, people on the ground will first feel the house shaking up and down, and then start shaking left and right after a few seconds.
"When the two kinds of waves reach the ground, the power will be mixed and strengthened to become a 'surface wave'. The surface wave is the chief culprit for the collapse of the house.
"However, there are many types of surface waves. The common ones are 'Love Wave', 'Rayleigh Wave', etc... By the way, let me tell you an interesting little knowledge! The original English name of 'Love Wave' It's actually 'LOVE WAVE', which means 'wave of love', this is the geologist's romance, isn't it interesting!"
Su Jishi explained a lot with great interest, but when she turned around, she found that Xiaoxia was staring at her innocently with blank eyes. Where's an excellent emoticon pack.
Su Jishi: "..."
Su Jishi really didn't want to admit that he was playing the piano to Niu: "I've said so much, how much do you understand?"
Xiaoxia cautiously held out a finger.
Su Jishi: "Ten percent?"
Xiaoxia forced an awkward smile.
Su Jishi: "...couldn't it be one percent?"
"No." Xiaoxia scratched her head, "I don't know anything about it."
Su Jishi was speechless, only sighed.
Xiaoxia yelled aggrievedly: "Sister Su, you talked so much just now, if you put it in the romance, I wouldn't even read this kind of background introduction, just skip it!"
Su Jishi: "..."
Xiaoxia: "Forget about the article. If such a large section of popular science information is suddenly inserted in Chapter V, I will definitely give the author a bad review. I think she is trying to get money by counting words!"
Su Jishi was angry and laughed at the same time.
No way, every other line is like a mountain. Xiaoxia's strengths and interests are not here, and it is a waste of each other's time to insist on holding her here to listen to geological lectures.
As a geologist, Su Jishi was able to see such a shocking and complete huge fault zone with her own eyes. She really wanted to find someone to talk about her inner excitement.
It's like you saw a bunch of brilliant flowers, ate a sweet orange, met a fat cat on the side of the road... When the happiness in life comes quietly, you always want to share it with others.
It's just that Su Jishi looked around in a daze, but couldn't find anyone who could listen to her talk about these things. After all, an ugly stone wall, in the eyes of laymen, is really nothing worth seeing. No matter how much she screamed excitedly at this rock wall, no one else could understand the excitement in her heart.
... No, no, there is still a person who can understand her.
Mu Xiulun's name suddenly popped out from the depths of her mind. He has studied geology, he knows her identity, he understands her pursuit...
Su Jishi was so itchy that he took out his phone and took a photo of the rock wall. After hesitating on the send button for two minutes, he finally clicked on the picture of the iceberg on top of all contacts in WeChat.
Dr. Su: [Share picture] x9
She thought, it was nine o'clock in the morning, which happened to be Mu Xiulun's busiest time.
Just wait for one minute, and if there is no reply after one minute, she will withdraw all the photos and pretend that nothing happened.
Isn't it just that no one can accompany her to watch this rock wall, she can also enjoy it alone.
... However, she was going to be "disappointed".
As soon as the photo was sent, after just a few seconds, Mu Xiulun's reply immediately appeared on the screen, as if he had been waiting for her to contact him.
Mr. Mu: Have you arrived in Keketuohai safely
Dr. Su: … You are not working
Mr. Mu: No.
Mr. Mu: At the main house, come to see Mu Min De.
He was obviously his blood-related father, but even the punctuation marks were tinged with coldness.
Su Jishi knew about the bad things going on in his family, so he was a little worried.
Dr. Su: Did he scold you
Mr. Mu: He is reluctant.
Mr. Mu: I am now his most promising child.
Mr. Mu: But, he is scolding you.
Dr. Su: ... What are you scolding me for
Dr. Su: Forget it, you can guess it. Don't tell me, I'm too lazy to listen.
Mr. Mu: Well, I have scolded you back.
Dr. Su: …
Su Jishi didn't notice that the two of them chatted for a long time before getting to the point.
Mr. Mu: The photos are finally loaded.
Mr. Mu: Are you in the Keketuohai earthquake fault zone
... Look, he really understands her. With just a few photos, he saw what she wanted him to understand at a glance.
The corners of Su Jishi's mouth rose slightly.
Dr. Su: Yes, it is spectacular.
Dr. Su: Although I have heard that this fault zone is well preserved, I can feel its magnificence only after seeing it with my own eyes.
Dr. Su: The power of nature is really great.
It is rare for Su Jishi to say so many words in one breath. Usually, when talking with Mu Xiulun, he is also concise and concise, trying to use the shortest words.
But today she was so excited that she accidentally exposed her nature as a geological dog.
But Mu Xiulun liked her "nature" very much.
Mr. Mu: It seems that you really like geology.
Dr. Su: Of course.
Dr. Su: The only pity is that due to the age and limited scientific level, I can't find the seismic wave detection records at that time.
Mr. Mu: Oh
Mr. Mu: I do know what wave it is.
Su Jishi was taken aback, wondering where Mu Xiulun got the seismic wave data from 90 years ago.
Dr. Su: What wave
Mr. Mu: It's 'Love Wave'.
Dr. Su: …
When he said it the first time, Su Jishi didn't understand it.
Five seconds later, a voice message appeared in the center of the screen.
Su Jishi's cold fingertips lightly touched the audio, and the man's deep and magnetic voice was transmitted through the speaker, echoing suddenly in the valley.
Love waves belong to the "surface waves" in seismic waves. And its English is—
"—it's LOVE WAVE."
The author has something to say: Xiaoxia: The romance of a geologist is so tm interesting. [lemon][lemon][lemon][lemon]
