Chapter Twenty-Six: Lang Jie, the Herdsman
Deqin is a county located in the northwestern part of Yunnan Province near the edge, and a short distance into Tibetan territory.
Although Qiu Hao didn't drive and was not as tired as Zhou Jianjian, he felt uncomfortable after riding in the car for too long.
Looking down at the loaches, I found that they were all with their heads bowed, at first I thought they were sick, but after asking Zhiling, I found out that they were motion sickness and altitude sickness!
It's now half past four in the afternoon, the team starts and stops on the way, encounters the toll station, the gas station stopped I don't know how many times, originally Qiu Hao was still counting, and then I forgot, stop and walk the dog more than ten times, although each time is not long, but the team of dogs can still get off the car and walk, slow down, but now, the loaches they are really dizzy.
"Heh, it seems that the greyhounds are not omnipotent, Zhiling, can psychic energy relieve fatigue and cure dizziness?" Every time Qiu Hao finds it difficult to solve a problem, he thinks of Zhiling, and under normal circumstances, Zhiling does not disappoint him.
"Yes, the physical fatigue caused by riding in the car is a first-level fatigue, which can be eliminated by consuming 10 points of spiritual energy, but mental fatigue and altitude sickness can be alleviated and cannot be eliminated."
Qiu Hao frowned, after igniting the spiritual energy of the animals in his family eight days ago, he only had 190 points of spiritual energy left, and now he can afford to consume 10 points of spiritual energy, but he has four spiritual dogs, and he can't favor one over the other, so he needs to take out 40 points of spiritual energy at one time.
"Give them four a treat."
Qiu Hao patted the foreheads of the four spirit dogs, consuming a total of forty points of spiritual energy, and then the spirit of the spirit dogs gradually improved, and their strength began to recover, the loach looked at Qiu Hao suspiciously, a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes, and then glanced at Zhengde, who was sleeping nearby, and was even more grateful to Qiu Hao.
As early as Lijiang, the road conditions became bad, and after a few hours, I found that the road was only more difficult to walk after entering the Tibetan area.
Most of the rocks you see on the road are green, yellow, black and gray, and the low grass brings a layer of green to the mountain, while the tree vegetation is gradually thinning, mainly concentrated next to the river waters.
Nowadays, a kind of stone pile made of stones can also be seen from time to time, and some stone piles are still placed with colorful cloth.
Zhou Jianshe said that the stone pile is called the Nima pile, and those pieces of cloth are called prayer flags!
Nyima piles can be found everywhere in Tibetan areas, and for Tibetans, this kind of stone pile is of great significance, equivalent to a small temple, for the gods, and cannot be destroyed. There are also passers-by who add a stone to their hands, so that the Nima pile will become bigger and bigger.
The prayer flag, also known as the wind horse flag, is a string, a clump, a piece of mantra image wooden board printed on cloth, linen yarn, silk, clay paper of various colors of wind flags, usually hung on the Nima pile, trees, doorheads, ropes, floating in the earth and the sky.
The convoy entered the Tibetan area, and a few hours later merged with the Sichuan-Tibet line in Mangxian County, at this time Zhou Jianshe gave up the driving position to one of Lao Qi's bodyguards, this sturdy man was a retired scout, called Yu Zhu.
At this time, it was dark, Qiu Hao's heart was slightly depressed, but it was not unbearable, this feeling was there before entering the Tibetan area, after all, in addition to the Tibetan area, the altitude of Yunnan Province is also very high, and it is not strange to have altitude sickness.
"Brother Zhou, how long will it take for my dog to adapt to altitude sickness?" Qiu Hao couldn't help but ask worriedly, this kind of thing is not clear to Zhiling.
"Two or three days, depending on the physique, you can rest assured, the dog is not so fragile, because the dog itself is very good at climbing mountains and mountains, and the plateau is the same! In fact, in addition to the Tibetan mastiff, there are other dogs in Tibet, such as earth dogs, golden retrievers, wolf dogs, Jingba, and even the thin dogs you want! Zhou Jianshe explained, and subconsciously looked at the loach and yellow eel when he spoke.
The main cause of altitude sickness is hypoxia, for example, the oxygen content in the air in Lhasa is only two-thirds of that in the mainland, and people in oxygen-rich areas will inevitably be dizzy when they come there, but as long as they are in good health, they can always adapt, but they can't do it, and they can also take rhodiola, oxygen and intravenous glucose.
Yu Zhu's drive was also very steady, and the night passed and then the sky was bright again, until half past three in the afternoon of the next day, a total of two days and six hours, and the convoy finally arrived in Lhasa.
After a short break for an hour, Lao Qi and Zhou Ran came over, they each brought two bodyguards when they came, but now they only saw one, and the rest didn't come to the rest, they should be making up for sleep, and Qiu Hao thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little injured, there must be their own factors in this, because they can't drive, so they are so tired.
Zhou Ran glared at Qiu Hao angrily, turned his head to Zhou Jianshe and said, "Fifth uncle, I'm going to play by myself, so I won't accompany you."
Zhou Jianjian's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "Nonsense, the original plan was to be together, I don't allow it!"
"Cut! I know you want to get the little Tibetan mastiff, but I don't want to, because I have a thunder hammer. Don't take the set of tens of millions of ancient animals and living fossils to talk about me, the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have said that the Tibetan mastiff is likely to be the migration of East Asian dogs to the plateau and transformed, obviously a wolf transformed into a dog, but you think it is not, anyway, I don't eat your set! Zhou Ran said stubbornly, and the thunder hammer beside him also screamed with full anger, and it seemed that he was not affected by altitude sickness.
Qiu Hao was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't say anything, but he paid attention to the content of Zhou Ran's words, and actually went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences......
Lao Qi was also embarrassed at this time and said: "Lao Zhou, since Xiao Ran is not going, then I will not go either, cough ...... You don't have to stare at me like that, I'm too sleepy, alas, people can't accept old age, I can drive over the mountain, it doesn't mean that my two legs can climb the mountain! ”
Zhou Jianshe said indignantly: "Hmph, you old Qi, you dare to be lazy, see if I go back and don't publicize the fact that you left your friends!"
"Whatever you want, I don't want anything now, I just want to sleep!" Lao Qi has no strength to say.
"So, what about the future, will we go back together as originally planned?" Zhou Jianshe frowned.
According to the original plan, everyone would stay in Tibet for 10 to 15 days and act in unison, but now at the beginning, there are people who will not accompany them, and it will be even more difficult to say in the future.
"That's nature, how dangerous it is to drive alone, in case the car can't move, in the deep mountains, it is called every day, and the earth is not spiritual, it is miserable!" Lao Qi immediately responded.
"I won't go back with you, I'll find a convoy to go back with me." Zhou Ran didn't care.
Zhou Jianjian's face shook and said coldly: "It's up to you."
After the two left, Qiu Hao said embarrassedly: "Brother Zhou, it's me who has troubled you!"
"It's okay, I already knew that the two of them were unreliable, just like Lao Liang!" Zhou Jianshe waved his hand.
Qiu Hao knew that Lao Liang's name was Liang Shangjun, who was in his forties like Zhou Jianshe and Qi Lianzheng, and was originally going to come with Zhou Jianjian, but he said that he didn't come because of something, so he had the opportunity to come to Tibet.
"Brother Zhou, where are we going now?"
"I want to go to the herdsmen's houses in the countryside now, will you go?" Zhou Jianshe said that he never forgot to dig out the small Tibetan mastiff.
"Of course I want to go!" Qiu Hao replied, now he has changed his original intention, he began to want to raise a Tibetan mastiff, and he also wanted to try it, and the Tibetan mastiff who did not seek to open his mind would become obedient, just to find out whether this strange dog would have a magic that ordinary dogs did not have.
Zhou Jianshe was overjoyed when he heard this: "Haha! Let's go, I just contacted a herdsman friend, I met him the first time I came, and we'll go to his house later! ”
Qiu Hao was surprised, but he was relieved to think about it, Zhou Jianshe had been to Tibet five times, and it was natural for him to meet some Tibetan friends, and asked: "Brother Zhou, it seems that the herdsmen have dogs at home, can you bring them with them?"
"Brother Qiu, let me remind you again, you can't call a Tibetan mastiff a dog, my Tibetan friend will be angry! It's not a big problem to take the dog there, but it's best to stay in the car, the Tibetan mastiff has a strong sense of territory, don't be confused and bitten! Zhou Jianshe said in a precautionary manner, opening the car door as he spoke.
The local famous mastiff in Tibet, in an area called "Shannan", is also the place where the legendary monkey and the Rakshasa woman were born from the combination of the Tibetan people. It is located in the south of the Gangdis Mountain to the Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, in the middle and lower reaches of the main stream of the Brahmaputra River, where there are no strange buildings, and there is no prosperity of the city, and now the direction of the two driving is Shannan.
Half an hour passed, the car was still driving, Qiu Hao asked why it was not yet, but Zhou Jianshe said that the Tibetan friend's house was not far away, and then spit out the place name "Shigatse", so Qiu Hao hurriedly looked at the atlas, and then smiled bitterly, the so-called "not far" of Lao Zhou was actually far away 250 kilometers away......
"Cough, Brother Zhou, the car ran so far, we don't have a border guard's card, we will be caught!" Qiu Hao began to worry.
"Huh? I also forgot, but it's okay, you don't need it in general areas like Lhasa, Shigatse, and Nyingchi, unless you go to a border area like Mount Everest, besides, you can also get a border permit in Shigatse, which is more expensive than Lhasa at most. ”
"I hope so, Brother Zhou, you just said that it is not far, but it will take more than 200 kilometers to get to Shigatse, so it is not far?"
"What do you kid know, you should understand what it means to be big and what it means to be a vast motherland! Travel, what you want is such a state of mind, open your mind a little, and experience what is called Kuangda, what is the end of the world! Zhou Jianshe talked eloquently, lying on the steering wheel with his hands, looking very leisurely.
"Ahem...... You have a point, alas, more than 3,000 kilometers have been run, not worse than these hundreds of kilometers! Qiu Hao choked and said helplessly.
Four or five hours passed, the sky slowly became dark, and at nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Jianshe suddenly drove the Land Rover into a grassland, and a few minutes later, he saw a few small bungalows with sporadic lights in Qiu Hao.
Zhou Jianshe honked a few horns, and then turned on the headlights to the maximum to illuminate a large grassland, and then lowered the window slightly, and shouted loudly: "Lang Jie, I'm Hu Hansan back again, are you here!"
"Roaring ......"
Before anyone could reply, a beast in a golden silk roared up, and the loaches and Zhengde suddenly turned over and stood up one by one, looking like they were facing a great enemy.
Qiu Hao was also a little stunned by the roar of the Tibetan mastiff, and scolded secretly in his heart, how could a dog roar so loudly, this is not scientific!
"Zhou Jianjian, what is your name, why do you do it every time you come?"
A fairly authentic Mandarin came from afar, Qiu Hao looked at it, under the car lights, two majestic Tibetan mastiffs jumped out of the house, and then a middle-aged man in a hat with a long coat and trousers, with a very different appearance from the mainlanders, walked out.
The two Tibetan mastiffs obviously rarely saw cars, and immediately showed their ferocity, got up and jumped on the window, after two "pengpeng" sounds, the Range Rover shook, and Zhou Jianshe hurriedly pulled up the window and said loudly: "Lang Jie, don't take care of your Tibetan mastiff!"
The middle-aged Tibetan looked proud and said indifferently: "Dawei, Dade, come back!"
Zhou Jianshe saw the Tibetan mastiff go back, didn't get out of the car directly, and came down the window again and said: "Lang Jie, I came here this time just to find the little Tibetan mastiff, do you have it?"
Lang Jie said with a blank face: "Are you a second peddler?"
