116 Under the high mountains where the eagle cannot fly
After chatting with Luo Xiaodan, Gu Fengchun found that he was very tragic, except for him, no one else had to conduct the so-called special training. The reason is very simple, except for him, everyone else is very adaptable to the plateau area, even Luo Xiaodan, who has also stayed in Tibet for a period of time, and once participated in the mountaineering team to climb Mount Everest, although he did not reach the top, but his physical fitness is enough to adapt to the life of the plateau, and although he likes the ancient Fengchun of mountaineering, he has never really set foot in this place, so he was brought here for more than 20 days of inhumane special training. However, under Tang Maiqiu's teaching, Gu Fengchun also realized the danger of this majestic and mysterious plateau.
After resting for three days, Gu Fengchun began to set off with the team.
Qin Chuan and Chen Si's agreement, this expedition team belonged to Tang Maiqiu's command, Qin Chuan sent a total of twelve people, including Luo Xiaodan and Shan Zifeng, a total of twelve people, these twelve people, except for Luo Xiaodan and Shan Zifeng, are all composed of Tibetans and Mongolians, each of whom is strong and very familiar with the plateau environment. In addition to him, there are eight team members, plus Da Yumu from the Mongolian Dalhut tribe, the number is a total of ten. Except for Da Yumu, these people are all special elites, and they are ...... The ages are very high, if Chen Si is counted, the average age will be more than two hundred years old, fortunately, from the outside, they are all in the prime of life, tiger-backed, and there is no trace of aging. If you look closely at their eyes, you can still find a trace of exhaustion and sadness.
So, twenty-four people, including Gu Fengchun and Tang Maiqiu, set off in a six-tael off-road vehicle.
According to Qin Chuan and Chen Si's decision, they will follow the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, from here into the outskirts of Hoh Xili, to the Tanggula Pass, where they will begin a long and arduous journey. Tang Maiqiu didn't know the specific route, except for Shan Zifeng, there was no second person in the entire team who knew. However, what they knew was that Qin Chuan had set up several strongholds along the way in the past, and equipment and items could be replenished at any time along the way, which effectively ensured the safety of the team.
You know, they're going to one of the harshest places in the world. There are few dangers near the national highway, but once you enter the Daisetsuzan Mountains, the dangers come one after another. High winds, torrential rains, heavy snow, low temperatures, quicksand, swamps, wild animals, diseases, and more can threaten the survival of the expedition. Fortunately, the time has come to September, and the beginning of autumn and winter in Hoh Xil will freeze firmly, and the safety factor will be much higher than the rainy season in July and August.
Gu Fengchun sat in the co-pilot without saying a word, looking tired, while Chen Si was holding the steering wheel energetically, driving the car closely behind the butt of the car driven by Shan Zifeng and Tang Maiqiu. Luo Xiaodan is in the same car as Gu Fengchun, at this moment she is tying herself with a seat belt in the car seat, falling asleep, Gu Fengchun really can't understand why this girl can still sleep on such a bumpy road.
Chen Si and Gu Fengchun switched droves, and the flat place is driven by Gu Fengchun, and in the dangerous place, Chen Si does not dare to be careless, and controls the car by himself, otherwise, it is not surprising that Gu Fengchun drove the car off the cliff. No matter how skilled the driver is, he does not dare to be careless on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, and along the way, Gu Fengchun has seen two overturned cars. After passing Golmud, the road began to become more rugged. Everyone knows very well that the next stop is the Tanggula Pass, and when you get there, there will be no more flat roads, except for the satellite navigation on the car, there is only the ancient map in the parchment scroll in Shan Zifeng's hand, and they rely on these things to find Genghis Khan's forbidden land in the vast plateau.
Gu Fengchun let out a long yawn and asked, "Chen Si, how far is it from the big mountain pass?" ”
Chen Si glanced at the navigation and said: "It's almost two hundred kilometers, with our current speed, it is estimated that there are still more than two hours, and this section of the journey is not easy to walk." Chen Si glanced at Gu Fengchun and asked, "How do you feel, there is no dizziness and tinnitus, right?" Seeing Gu Fengchun's haggard face, Chen Si was worried that Gu Fengchun had altitude sickness.
Gu Fengchun shook his head and said, "No, don't worry." ”
Chen Si smiled and said, "That's good, when you get to Tanggula Pass, the altitude there has suddenly risen a lot, and it will make you, a novice who is entering Tibet for the first time, drink a pot, but it's good to get used to it." Gu Fengchun smiled bitterly, Tanggula Pass, this name he knows very well. Although the road below the Tanggula Pass has reached an altitude of 4800~4900 meters, but the mountain pass is 5200 meters, and it has been raised by more than 300 meters at once, which does not seem to be large, but the oxygen content of the air here is only about 60%, which is a very serious obstacle for people who have not been to the Tibetan Plateau. When you arrive at the Tanggula Pass, it is only more than 100 kilometers southwest of the main peak of the Tanggula Mountains, Gradan Dongxue Peak, where there is the world-famous Tuotuo River, the source of the Yangtze River.
Gu Fengchun sighed and said, "We arrived at Tanggula Pass, after we arrived at Tanggula Pass, where is the next destination?" ”
Chen Si shook his head and said: "Qin Chuan is an old fox, Shan Zifeng is also a cunning wolf, they hide their secrets to death, I don't know the specific location, but I can be sure that it should not exceed the range of two hundred kilometers of the Tanggula Mountains, however, this range is enough for us to have a headache, the mountains and rivers overlap here, dangers are everywhere, many places are not open by cars, when the time comes, we can only abandon the car and hike, at that time, the real difficulty will come, but, for us, It's not a bad thing, it's a good thing. ”
"Why is it a good thing?" Gu Fengchun asked puzzled.
"Because in this environment, there are many dangers, and there are many opportunities for that team member to be injured or even attrition, and among the team members I brought, except for Da Yumu, the vitality of the others is very incredible, and the combat effectiveness will be many times stronger than those brought by Shan Zifeng, so in that kind of confrontation, we will not fall behind." Chen Si said meaningfully.
"You're right." Thinking of the group of people who had eaten immortal medicine brought by Chen Si, Gu Fengchun took a deep breath of thin air, and then said, "It stands to reason that Qin Chuan should have insight into your plan. ”
"Yes, he must be aware of the advantages and disadvantages, he has at least dozens of people waiting for us in front, as long as the number of people lost is not too high before entering the big forbidden area, after entering the big forbidden area, our advantage will be lost." Chen Si said faintly.
"Why?" Gu Fengchun asked with a look of surprise.
