Chapter 253 Deng Kunlun eats Yuying

Alpha visibly shuddered when he talked about the herdsman's tragic death, and looked at the valley of death in the distance, which had almost disappeared from view, and breathed a sigh of relief, before continuing.

The expedition team decided to find out what exactly had happened to him. A few days later, the expedition found nothing but a tent set up near his body, indicating that he had stayed there.

The blue sky is full of white clouds, the river is babbling, and bright flowers are blooming all around. Yiqiē was so calm, as if nothing had happened. The leader of the expedition, meteorologist Shapur Kanki, began to praise the good weather, but before he could finish speaking, the sky suddenly changed its face, and thunder shook the earth around him. At the same time, a storm of sand and dust hit head-on.

Seeing this, Captain Kanki immediately shouted: "Remove the radio antenna as much as possible, it's dangerous!" At this time, I saw that the head chef Wang Lichen in the depression in the deep canyon had fallen, and everyone hurriedly ran over and saw that Lao Wang had been roasted to a dark black shape. The members of the scientific expedition team immediately took emergency treatment measures, and finally revived Lao Wang. According to him, when he was stir-frying with an iron spoon, thunder began to strike, and as soon as he felt a little surprised, a roar sounded overhead, and he felt very close to him. At that moment, the flash slashed like a sharp sword, and the frying spoon in his hand flew out, and then it was pitch black in front of him, and he didn't know anything.

After the rain had passed, the expedition team made an inspection and found the charred carcasses of horses lying messily by the river. Later, after inquiring about the meteorological station, it was learned that this abnormal weather only occurred in the Death Valley basin, and not even a drop of rain fell upstream and downstream.

"Thankfully, we just ran fast. "I remembered the sandstorm just now. Zhang Tianyuan also shuddered, isn't the sandstorm and lightning very similar to what Alpha said? It's also that these people are more cautious and haven't entered the valley of death, otherwise, it is estimated that it will be really miserable, after all, they are not insulators, and it is possible to be electrocuted into coke if they really encounter the lightning.

"yes, that's why I'm asking everyone to get around Death Valley before it gets dark. I'm just afraid that something will happen. It's also lucky, although I encountered some trouble, but overall it was relatively smooth. One-Eye nodded.

"Alpha, didn't the expedition team come to any conclusions later?" asked Zhang Tianyuan.

"The expedition's investigation went on for a whole summer. As a result, the following facts were ascertained:

First of all. This phenomenon is confined to the valley of death. It was as if the thunderclouds had been sucked into the canyon and gathered. It has been determined that there is a strong magnetic property of 1,000-3,000 gauss near the top of the mountain in this area.

Secondly, the strata in the middle reaches of the river were formed by volcanic activity in the Triassic. Its main component is highly magnetic basalt, which can be found in a wide area of the middle reaches. For this reason, the expedition team attributed the cause to a strong geomagnetic reaction, which caused local thunder.

In addition, in the middle reaches of the Death Valley Basin, the humid air flow in summer is easily blocked by the Kunlun Mountains, concentrated in the valley in the middle reaches, and due to the influence of charged convective clouds or thunderclouds above, the atmospheric electric field on the surface of this area is enhanced, often causing the same tip discharge phenomenon as the St. Elmo fire.

Repeated thunderstorms have left the area lacking tall trees. However, the grass here is abundant, so cattle and horses like to come to feed, and once the discharge phenomenon is caused, cows, horses and people naturally become the target of lightning strikes.

As for the disappearance of the corpses, it may have something to do with the permafrost that covers the area. The permafrost, which is several meters thick, has been transformed into a huge solid reservoir. In the summer, when the temperature rises, it turns into a swamp. The swamp would immediately flood the corpses, hide, and no wonder people couldn't find them. The mystery of Death Valley can be said to be a rare natural phenomenon. ”

"Isn't this a conclusion?" asked Zhang Tianyuan suspiciously.

"Hmph, this is just a deception to outsiders, Death Valley is far from being as simple as they say, and many of their explanations are simply unreliable. You also saw it just now, after a flash of lightning, the man's body and a few vultures disappeared inexplicably, it couldn't be because the swamp flooded the corpses! And there were people who went to the swamp to dig up before, although there were corpses, but obviously the number was wrong, once there was a herd of horses all buried in Death Valley, but the corpses dug up, there were only three or five corpses, most of which could not be explained. Alpha shook his head.

Zhang Tianyuan was silent, there are indeed many things in this world that cannot be explained by science, in fact, the scientific expedition team is not wrong, they have to give people an explanation, otherwise, it is not good for superstitious ideas to prevail.

"In fact, many reasons why people disappeared after entering are still mysteries. According to incomplete statistics, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Hejiang Animal Husbandry Bureau, the Hejiang Geological Exploration Team, the Troop Surveying and Mapping Team, and many herdsmen have been in distress in Death Valley many times, causing a large number of deaths and incidents. I have also heard from the older generation that during the war against Japan, there was a Japanese army, about 100 people, relying on excellent weapons, through the valley of death, and no one survived after entering the valley, so there is a legend of the 'terrible valley of death'. Alpha continued.

Hearing these statements, Zhang Tianyuan thought of the mysterious words on those stone tablets again, and couldn't help but feel a cold hair stand on end.

He is not afraid of wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, but he is still a little afraid of these unknown things, after all, you don't know how to prevent them.

"I see it's getting dark, so let's hurry up and find a place to set up camp. "One-eyed Jianyì said.

"Are you all rested?" asked Zhang Tianyuan.

"No problem. ”

"Alright, let's go. ”

Everyone set off again, until it was dark, about four or five miles away from Death Valley, before they dared to stop and rest, and they didn't dare to hurry at this time, after all, this mountain was too dangerous, One-Eye found a very suitable place to set up a tent, and then made a meal, in fact, it was cooking, but it was just to heat up the dry food and get some soup to drink.

"One-eyed, I'm glad I brought you here, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to set up this tent in the wilderness. Zhang Tianyuan looked at One-Eyed with some admiration. These skills of survival in the wild, he has only seen on TV, and it is very new to see them now.

"Hehe, it's nothing, a few of them will, we run on the mountain all year round, we still have to understand this thing, otherwise we will live in vain. Consultant Zhang, you're different, you live in a big city, and you don't need to learn these things. One-Eye scratched his head and laughed.

"Alright. Don't brag about each other. Let's finish eating and rest, and we'll continue our journey tomorrow morning. Gulzana laughed.

"Haha, that's right. ”

The crowd had a good meal, and then a vigil was arranged. Zhang Tianyuan said: "No need. Leave the vigil to me and the HRE. Sleep in peace, I'll sleep when I'm tired, and the Shinra is more alert than any dog. Anything that happens is more reliable than our vigil. ”

"Is this little thing so powerful?" said One-Eye, surprised.

"Don't you believe it? Try fighting it. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile.

"No, no, no, I think it's better to forget it, I believe in Advisor Zhang, then we'll sleep first." One-eyed smiled innocently.

"Okay, let's rest, I'm not tired now, I'll sleep later." Zhang Tianyuan smiled.

These people also trusted Zhang Tianyuan, and they really slept all of them.

In this night, the sky actually became clear, the moonlight was like water, and he could vaguely see the scenery in the distance, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but sigh.

Although it was very hard to come up this time, it was rewarding.

In the distance, the majestic Kunlun is covered with snow, lying between heaven and earth, standing on the desert. Looking at the Kunlun Mountains faintly under the moonlight, listening to the beautiful music on his mobile phone, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but think of Mao Zhuxi's Kunlun words and sentences: "Born out of thin air, reckless Kunlun, read the spring in the world." Three million jade dragons flew up, stirring up Zhou Tian's cold ......" like a hanging river pouring water, magnificent, mighty.

"Admired by the bright moon, the world is turbid and unknown. We galloped high and ignored it, driving the green and white cockroach. I and Chonghua travel to the garden of Yao, and climb Kunlun to eat Yuying. Live with heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and the moon".

Qu Yuan dreamed of stepping on auspicious clouds to visit Kunlun two thousand years ago, what Qu Yuan didn't do, now Zhang Tianyuan has done it, I have to say, I really feel a little high-spirited.

After listening to the music for a while, Zhang Tianyuan turned off his mobile phone, and there was no signal anyway, he didn't want to waste electricity.

Gently touching the feathers of Shinra, he whispered: "Little one, I will rely on you at night, let me sleep well." ”

Shinra shouted at him, looking very confident.

Zhang Tianyuan smiled, so he also got into the tent and fell into a sweet dream.

At night, the sound of wolves howling can be heard in the distance, but these have nothing to do with Zhang Tianyuan and them, because they slept soundly and quietly this night, nothing happened, and Shenluo completed his vigil very dedicatedly.

When he got up in the morning, Shenluo got into Zhang Tianyuan's arms to rest, it also needs to rest, and it can't be so tired all the time.

"Consultant Zhang, we have stained your light this time, in the past, we had to take turns to keep vigil, that is called a tired, I don't want to get up when I sleep at night, that little guy is really amazing." One-Eye said with a smile as he washed his face by the stream.

"If it's not good, I won't take it up the mountain, don't think it's just a pet, this little guy is amazing." Zhang Tianyuan is proud of himself for having such a hundred-mile night cry.

……

When everyone had eaten breakfast, they could already see a red rainbow rising in the sky, and the sky was slowly brightening, so they began to hurry again, and there was still a considerable distance from the Shihezigou they were going to, and they had to hurry up.

From Golmud to Nachitai Spring, the altitude rises from 2,800 meters to nearly 4,000 meters. Kunlun Spring, located between Shasong Wushan and Bokarektagger, is said to be the spring water used by the Queen Mother of the West to brew the elixir and jade liquid, and it is estimated that these springs from the depths of Kunlun must also come from the place of Kunlun jade, caressing the ice and clean jade body.

After drinking the sweet spring water, they continued on their way.

The sacred Kunlun Mountain used to be so fascinating, but when everyone walked through the endless barren Gobi in the Kunlun Mountains for a long time, it left people with the impression of being continuous and desolate, feeling as if they were separated from the world and living on another desolate planet, and it was even more difficult to imagine that the crystal clear warm and moist jade would be produced here. Perhaps this is Kunlun's vastness and atmosphere, majestic and profound and infinitely changing nature.

As soon as they passed through a river valley, a strong wind suddenly blew in the wasteland, and the wind and sand penetrated into their clothes, making everyone covered in dust. In the distance, a herd of Tibetan antelopes showed frightened eyes in the dust, a deserted no-man's land.

This was the second time they had encountered this kind of ghost weather, but this time it was much calmer than before. (To be continued......)
