Chapter 5: The Strange Cave
Walking at the front of the team are three old men in their twilight years, all of whom are about sixty years old, their hair and beards are gray, and it can be seen from the folds on their faces that the vicissitudes of the old people's lives have been twists and turns, and several old people also found the soldiers in front of them in military uniforms, and the military rank on the shoulders of Mao Gose, they naturally recognized it.
The three old men walked towards Mao Gose, and the soldiers who came down from behind several cars naturally gathered forward and stood about two meters behind Mao Gose and several people, once they encountered an emergency, they would definitely be able to enter the battle at the first time.
As far as Tibet is concerned, since its peaceful liberation, it has been divided into two factions, one is the affinity faction and the other is the disobedient faction, although the latter is in the minority, but it is also a lingering cancer in society in recent decades, just like the minority people in Xinjiang.
The three old men quickly came to Mao Gose's approach, led by an old man in a gray robe, the old man came to a position about two meters in front of Mao Gose and stopped, folded his hands and introduced himself: "Hello this chief, I am Rejiaba who is in charge of this heavenly burial." ”
There are several controversial jobs in Tibet, and one of them is Regyalpa, who is not the name of the old man, but a position similar to that of the elders of some religions, who are over 50 years old and well-known in some parts of Tibet, or who are monks in monasteries.
And their job is to carry out the celestial burial, which seems too bloody to the outside world, but it is also open to outsiders, and in their eyes, this is the supreme state of self-sacrifice in Buddhism.
"Hello uncle, we are just passing by, there is a lot of disturbance, you don't have to worry about us, you just continue." Mao Gose nodded and said.
Bidding farewell to the funeral procession, it was finally completely dark, but the environment here was very good and not polluted, so at night under the light of the stars, you could see the surrounding scenery clearly.
The car continued to drive for three hours, and the vast plains outside the window also disappeared, and the road began to be bumpy, but fortunately, the Hummer was a high-grade off-road vehicle, and it would not feel bumpy to run on such a road.
In front of a small courtyard that has been abandoned, seven Humvees are neatly parked at the gate of the courtyard, I have a bumpy road, and I can finally get out of the car, when I see the small courtyard in front of me, my heart is inevitably a little panicked, it seems that I should not be able to sleep well tonight.
"Ahh
You can actually hear the wolf howling outside, which really has an indescribable primitive taste, and I am used to hearing the sound of traffic in the big city, and it can be regarded as a unique taste in such a mountainous area where no one cares.
I still couldn't help but stretch my waist, and followed Zhang Moxing and Huo Nan to move out the military supplies in the trunk of the car, which was nothing more than some military equipment, tents, weapons, etc., miscellaneous, and quite heavy, but the boxes of our car added up, it cost hundreds of kilograms, and the trunks of these five cars were almost filled with these things.
Although compared with Zhang Moxing and them, Huo Nan and I have no field experience, but there have been many wild camping, and the tents brought this time are all military, and the size is very large, and a group of people are also busy.
About 100 kilometers north of Shigatse, there is a mountain peak, this peak is located on the sunny side of Mount Everest, and the geographical environment of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is different from the perennial snow cover, the altitude here is about 3,000 meters, the four seasons are distinct, and now this season is also a hundred grasses are abundant, vibrant, and a thriving scene.
Cars can't get in here, and the group walks on a narrow path, which seems to be left by the hunters who hunt up the mountain all year round, and further on is a canyon with a small slope that leads through to it, extending downward at a 30-degree angle.
We stopped at the entrance to a cavernous cave surrounded by a layer of vines as thick as a baby's arm, which would have been silent for hundreds of years had it not been for the collapse of the soft soil above.
On the left side of the hole, there is an old five-pointed shape mark, each corner of the five-pointed star is engraved with an ancient text, I stepped forward to take a look, I don't know, and in the middle of the pentagon, is a square depression, inside is carved a bird like a phoenix, but it is not a phoenix, so Yan Jing stared at the bird for a long time, took out his mobile phone to take a photo, and then went online as if looking for something, with a pretty face and a frown.
The edge of the hole is neat, and it looks like it was also artificially grooved, but it is very old.
"Everyone check all the equipment, be careful when you go in, and don't touch things that shouldn't be moved." Mao Gose stood at the entrance of the cave and admonished, and without looking back after speaking, he took out his flashlight and walked in directly.
The flashlight in Mao Gose's hand is also military technology, the quality is very good, although the flashlight is not big, only the size of the palm, but the power is sufficient and the brightness is stable, after the power is completely used up, it can also produce a certain brightness with the help of the temperature of the human body, although it is not very bright, but in a completely dark environment, it can save life.
The light of the flashlight shines inside, and the hole seems to have a substance that can devour the light source, and the light of the flashlight does not shine far, and the depth of the hole is still pitch black, and it seems that the wall of the cave inside has been artificially treated.
After walking about a hundred meters along the entrance of the cave, the space inside the cave began to become narrow, and only five people could pass side by side.
It is the first time I have entered this kind of cave, and I now have an indescribable sense of depression in my heart, although I do not have any claustrophobia, but any normal person, come to a place where there is no light source all year round, will produce this depressing feeling, like a mouthful in the chest, although it will not affect breathing, but I can't spit out this turbid breath, which makes people very uncomfortable.
The walls of the cave are still bare, and the light hits it, and it is not reflected, so the inside of the cave still gives people a feeling of darkness, and the last and first people are the most able to experience this feeling.
"Huh? You see, there are plants in there! "Huo Nan walked ahead of me, seemed to have noticed something under his feet, and squatted down after screaming.
"If you don't want to die, don't move!"
Yan Jing, who had never spoken, walked side by side with Huo Nan, and when he saw that Huo Nan was about to catch the plant, his face changed, and he suddenly slammed his foot on Huo Nan's half-squatting buttocks, and Huo Nan lay on the ground in a dog chewing mud.
"Just say it, don't move your feet, don't think you're a beauty and go wild, master, I'm ......" Huo Nan didn't finish speaking, and Yan Jing swallowed the next words back into his stomach with a look.
I'll just say, this girl is not easy to mess with!
But then again, what did this kid Huo Nan say just now, there are actually plants in places where you can't see sunlight in all seasons this year?
I was also curious, and looked at Huo Nan's position just now, and everyone's eyes were also on the lone plant growing next to a giant opales......
