Section 430 Flooding area of Lake Mayin Donbe
"Yes." Bablu nodded.
Chen Rui took out a charcoal pen and a piece of paper from his rucksack and handed them to Baburu.
Babu took the charcoal and paper, and took a small wooden stool and shook it.
Pick up the charcoal pen and start drawing according to the legendary description of the horror bird.
Baburu draws with concentration.
The charcoal pen moved across the paper, drawing lines and coatings.
The lines and coatings finally form the pattern of a large bird.
Baburu stopped his pen and handed the paper to Chen Rui.
Chen Rui took the paper and looked at it.
The pattern drawn on the paper is indeed very similar to that of the velociraptor rex.
The head is very large, the upper beak is very hooked, very pointed, and there is a clump of upside-down feathers on the back of the head, like the feather crown of an Indian chieftain.
Its wings are different from those of ordinary birds, like a meat hook structure, which can be extended like arms.
Its legs are very thick and very tall, 1.2 to 1.5 meters tall, which is half of its entire height.
Its tail feathers are very firm, very straight and very long.
Many of the features on the horror bird are very similar to those of dinosaurs.
As soon as you see the pattern on the paper.
Chen Rui was a little excited in his heart, the horror bird was the target he was looking for, of course, if the horror bird existed.
Chen Rui asked Baburu again, "Do you know where the horror bird lives?" ”
Hearing this, Baburu picked up a charcoal pen and drew a few lines on the paper, a large circle, a string of small circles, and then, pointing to the first line, said, "This river is a big river next to us, and it takes about 3 sunrises and sunsets. With that, Bablu pointed to the second line on the paper, which was pointing eastward. Then, he continued, "Along the river, it takes about 7 sunrises and sunsets. Bablu pointed to a third line, about 30 degrees to the northeast, and continued. Along the river, there are about 15 sunrises and sunsets. You will come to a large lake, and there are many small lakes next to the big lake, and there is a swamp between the big lakes and the small lakes, and the horror birds live in the swamps. ”
Baburu's words went around and around and stunned Chen Rui.
Chen Rui took out a map of the Congo River system from his rucksack and searched for it himself.
The first line, the Congo River.
The second line, to the east, is the Kasai River.
It takes 3 sunsets to reach the confluence of the Congo and Kasai rivers from your location. Well, I am now in the rainforest between Kaba and Kwamut, about 100 to 120 kilometers in a straight line from Kwamut.
The third line, then is the Femi River.
The Great Circle of the Fiumi River pasts, the Lake Maien Donbe.
Well, the horror bird lives in the swampy land of the Mayi N Donbei Lake.
About the point of a flooded swamp that juts into the middle of Lake Maien Donbe.
Objectives were determined.
Chen Rui said to Baburu, "Patriarch Baburu, can you be my guide?" I will give you enough money to buy food for three years for all of your village. ”
"Yes." Bablu said.
The next day.
Chen Rui's expedition began to continue to set off, and Baburu and Baburu's nephew Shabit were added to the team.
Baburu and Shabit are very familiar with everything in the nearby jungle.
They automatically took Rabaghi. Kamba. The mission of Barbara's guide.
After three days, the expedition came out of the jungle and arrived at the city where the Congo River meets the Kasai River, Kwamut.
Chen Rui let the guide Rabachi. Kamba rented three vans in Kwamut.
After two days of rest in Kwamut.
The expedition traveled along the road in three vans to Masia and then crossed the Kasai River to Le Diba. In Lediba, drive along the road via Lebu, Mushi and finally reach Neoki.
The expedition rested in Nyoki for two days, prepared all kinds of food and supplies. After the drug.
Then he rented a boat in Neoki and followed the Femi River, via Kutu to Lake Mai N Donbe, and finally to the middle of Lake Mai N Donbe jutting into the middle of the lake.
The journey from Kwamut to the middle of Lake Majon Donbe, jutting into the middle of the lake, took 17 days.
The Masia, Lediba, lebu, Muhi, Neoki and Kutu cities are all built deep in the Congolese rainforest, with very small populations and very poor road systems.
Abandoned ship and landed at Lake Maiendonbe.
The expedition began deep into the rainforest.
Here, there are no roads, no towns, only vast, dense rainforests, and the swampy area formed by the flooding of Lake Mai Ndonbei during the rainy season, in the swamp area are all kinds of ferocious crocodiles, pythons, poisonous snakes, mosquitoes carrying infectious germs, eating flies, a swollen African killer bee, and primitive tribes living in the swamps, and most dangerously, the swamp itself, which can trap people at any time.
It's one of the most dangerous places on earth.
Trust Bell. Grylls didn't dare to venture here.
The expedition consisted of 19 people.
The team configuration is the first two guides, and three security guards open the way.
In the middle are Chen Rui, Baburu, and Rabachi. Kamba, a doctor, and eight security guards carrying tents, water, food, supplies, medicine boxes, cooking utensils, cutlery, and more.
There are also several security guards who are in charge of guarding.
The rainy season in the DRC has been almost a month underway.
This is a rainforest deep in the middle of Lake Maiendonbe.
The flooding of the lake will first submerge most of this rainforest.
Walking in it, the water reached the knees, and it was very difficult to pull out the legs when I stepped on it and stepped into the mud.
It is very difficult to walk in such a place, and every step is very strenuous.
The smell of decay in the nose is like the smell of a stinky gutter.
The smell of decay, the smelly water rich in nutrients also breeds a large number of mosquitoes.
In such places, if there are no measures to do so, the chance of getting malaria is 95%, and it is impossible to avoid it.
Chen Rui, as well as the guides and security guards hired in Kinshasa, were tightly wrapped to prevent mosquitoes from biting.
And, Baburu, Shabit wore very few clothes, only a ** wrapped in animal skins, but they also had a set of mosquito protection, and took out a bottle from their package, the bottle contained some green liquid, like the juice of some plant, and when you opened the cap, you could smell the juice and make an unpleasant smell, Baburu, Shabit smeared the juice on his body.
The expedition walked through the floodplain of the lake.
Suddenly, Chen Rui called out to Barbara, the guide who was walking in the front, and his voice was very urgent, "Barbara, wait, slowly retreat." ”
"A few bubbles have just bubbled up in the water nest about 10 meters in front of you, I'm sure there's one or a few crocodiles under the water, crocodiles like to stay in this kind of place the most, let's take a detour, don't mess with it." Chen Rui said. (To be continued......)
