Chapter 3 The Foot of Wolf Mountain
The monkey and I quickly left the archaeological site, and before leaving, I took the photos that had been locked in a drawer by Team Cai and the report on the three skeletons, which should have been our final destination.
In addition, there is a detailed route description in the expedition report, and the place where they found the bones is located in the Yinshan Mountains of Inner Mongolia, which is a mountain range in the central part of China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, running east-west, including Wolf Mountain, Wula Mountain, Serten Mountain, Daqing Mountain, etc.
According to the instructions in the investigation report, we only need to arrive in Linhe District, Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, where there are many special extreme outdoor donkey friend tribes, including those who take the Wolf Mountain line, and when the time comes, we can save a lot of trouble with them.
With this information, we will be much easier, the monkey and I have made preliminary plans, we went to the train station overnight and went straight to the Inner Mongolia River!
The train from Beijing to Linhe was a fourteen-hour journey, so we bought sleeper tickets, got on the train and had a quick bite to eat, discussed our plans with the monkey briefly, and then went to bed.
On this journey back to Beijing from Korla, I didn't even have time to catch my breath and rushed to Inner Mongolia non-stop, and I didn't know what Xinyi, Bearded, Dongzi, Cai, and Heizi were doing now, and I didn't know what hardships and dangers I and the monkey would go through on this trip......
……
After the night, the monkey and I were woken up by a long train whistle, and the train attendant informed us that we had arrived at the riverfront. It's a quarter past eleven o'clock in the afternoon.
There was a lot of people in the train station, and the monkeys and I slowly squeezed outside the station with the flow of people. Out of the train station, there are all kinds of black car drivers holding signs to solicit passengers, but all of them were sent away by me and the monkeys, but we continued to walk a few steps out, a group of people in front of us attracted our attention, they also held signs, only to see the sign read: Wula Mountain Donkey Team, Serten Mountain Donkey Team, Daqing Mountain Donkey Team, continue to move forward, I also saw the Wolf Mountain Donkey Team!
This is probably what was mentioned in the expedition report, and I thought it was a great opportunity, so the monkey and I immediately greeted it and prepared to sign up.
Wolf Mountain Tour's leader
The team is an uncle in his fifties, behind him there are already many young people in different costumes, it seems that they are all people who have just come off the train, as soon as I and the monkey go up, the uncle will greet us with a smile, he seems to have seen the intention of my door.
After a brief conversation, I roughly understood the operation of this team. Each person only needs to pay the service fee of 500 quick money to the tour leader, and he can charter a car to take us to the foot of Wolf Mountain and act as a guide to lead us up the mountain. The monkey and I both thought the price was a bit expensive, but it saved us the trouble of taking a taxi and hiring a guide, so we didn't think much about it and signed up directly.
The leader's uncle's surname is Li, everyone calls him Uncle Li, he is a local, according to his own introduction, he has been doing this line for some years, and only he dares to take the line of Wolf Mountain, because Wolf Mountain is the highest average altitude mountain range in the entire Yinshan Mountain Range, and the basin is crisscrossed by mountains and rivers, it is extremely easy to get lost, and the final destination of this team is the main peak of Wolf Mountain - Hohe Bashige, so some experienced people will never dare to take this road, so this Uncle Li charges so expensive!
Uncle Li arranged two off-road vehicles, he drove one by himself, and a young driver, counting the team leader and the driver, there were eight people in total, and the monkey and I got into the team leader's car with another young man in his twenties, and the other three got into the other one.
Uncle Li first took us to the market to buy some food and water, because the climate in the mountains is dry and there is a great lack of water, so he let us buy a lot of canned food, so it is best to replenish water and satisfy hunger.
According to Uncle Li, their trip is only one day at most, today before dark can drive from Linhe to the foot of Wolf Mountain, tomorrow morning can climb the mountain, in the afternoon can go down the mountain to catch up, so let us not buy too much food and water, enough for tomorrow day.
However, the monkey and I don't think so, we are not like other people who just go purely to the mountaineering tour, we have a mission, so when we get to the foot of the Wolf Mountain, we must find a way to get rid of the crowd, and the monkey and I will definitely not enter the mountain for less than a week, so we will use all the change left on our bodies to buy food
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) and water, as for the tools and equipment to go down the mountain, we still took it from Xinyi when we were in Loulan, and now we can only make do with it.
When everything was ready, the two off-road vehicles began to head towards Wolf Mountain. Two hours later, our car finally left the city and began to drive into the Wolf Mountain area. There is no hustle and bustle in the city outside the car window, only the mountains on both sides of the car surround us, it seems to gradually drive into a canyon, at first we can still see some scattered houses scattered in the mountains, the further we go, the canyon on both sides begins to shrink to the middle, the sky that can be seen when you look up is much smaller, the light gradually dimmed, giving people a feeling that it is almost dark.
……
\u00a0 Halfway through the car shop, there was rain in the sky, I didn't feel a little worried about whether there would be heavy rain to hinder this trip, I finally walked forward for so long, if Uncle Li decided to return because of the rain, it would be a disaster.
Fortunately, we finally reached the bottom of the mountain before dark, and by this time the rain had stopped. The car made its way down the winding riverbed to the depths of the canyon, where the group camped in a large clearing. Perhaps God saw everyone's sincerity and took the initiative to disperse the dark clouds, so that the moon showed a charming smile, and clothed the canyon with a layer of silver, and there was a chill in the haze.
After eating, everyone will rest early, tomorrow morning to climb the mountain, I and the monkey has already made plans, when everyone sets off early tomorrow morning, we will withdraw from the back of the mountaineering journey on the grounds that we are unwell by the wind and cold at night, and stay in place and wait for them to come back, and after everyone leaves, we will find another way to go straight to the depths of Wolf Mountain. During the day, I have already seen the trend of the entire mountain range, and then I can locate it with a compass, and I believe that with my current skills, it should not be difficult to find the exact location of the sinkhole.
The next morning, the monkeys and I went as planned, and as soon as everyone was in the jungle, we packed our bags and plunged headlong into the depths of the canyon......
