Chapter 4: Each with a scheming: 22. Into the mountain
Two days later, our group split into two groups and headed into the mountain. A group of younger brothers led by Li Lili and they brought the last batch of supplies, and after coming from Nyingchi, they did not stop in Lulang, and entered the mountain directly from Dongjiugou. The other group was led by me, from the alpine pasture, over the mountain to the bottom of the ditch on the side of the Gongbrazan Snow Mountain, and went along the bottom of the ditch to the snow-capped mountain. We do this in a fraction of what it is, mainly to avoid attracting the attention of the locals. The locals didn't know how many of us were, and thought they were two groups of unrelated hikers, each playing a different route. Li Lili's group makes people look like they are going to climb the snow mountain. And our group is more like a walker entering the Brahmaputra River basin. That's what we're saying to the outside world. In fact, we agreed to meet at the lake at the foot of the Gongbrazan Snow Mountain before dusk, and after camping by the lake for one night, we still followed the route I took for the first time in the mountain, and went around the snow-capped mountain. The road over the snowy mountains is too difficult to walk, so I'd rather spend a little more time and take a few detours.
There aren't many people in our group, me, Xiaoni, Lao Pao, Ruoyu and her two assistants. The female assistant assigned to Ruoyu was urgently transferred from the Hong Kong branch of Xiaoni's family company, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, and looked very mature. This girl's name is Liang Jiahui, and it is said that she is very researched in the identification of cultural relics. She is an outgoing personality and quickly gets to know everyone. Along the way, Lao Pao always teased her and asked her to sing a song called "Wine on September 9" in Hong Kong dialect. As soon as Liang Jiahui opened his mouth, everyone laughed. The title of the song "Wine on September 9" makes Leung Ka-wai use Hong Kong dialect like a dog-eat-dog walk. And the first line of the lyrics is September 9, let Leung Jiahui sing in Hong Kong dialect, and everyone will listen to it as yo hey dog eats dog.
We walked all the way in this way, and before dusk, we easily arrived at the lake under the Gongbrazan Snow Mountain.
When we arrived at the lake, Li Lili and his entourage had already set up camp there. This time, in addition to a few small tents, Xiao Ni also equipped two large tents, each of which could accommodate seven or eight people. And the inflatable sleeping mat that is rationed to everyone is foldable. Lay flat is a sleeping mat, folded up and a small sofa. Li Lili said that these equipment are too advanced, comfortable and lightweight.
After we put our backpacks down, I remembered the glowing fish in the lake, pulled Ni aside, and told her to let my brother quietly take the speargun to the lake. Xiao Ni asked me what I was going to do. I told her that there was a strange fish in this lake, which was electrified and glowed at night, which was not found anywhere else. Let's go and fish a few and bake them, and the taste is not in the world. When Xiao Ni heard me say this, she also came to her senses. happily went to the little brother to get a speargun.
I walked alone to the lake, and the glacial lake was still dazzling in the sunlight. And the connected lake, the lake water is still a brilliant blue, a little strange blue in the sun. The strange fish in the lake still swim very slowly in the water, like an old man strolling leisurely.
When I walked to the lake, I found that Lao Pao and Liang Jiahui had already arrived first. Liang Jiahui squatted by the lake, watching a few fish slowly swimming under his feet, and when he saw me coming, he said excitedly, "Look, these fish are so cute!" ”
Lao Cannon was looking at these fish and said with a grin, "These fish are very interesting, if you just reach down and catch them, they won't run." ”
As soon as I heard Lao Pao's words, I knew that he was playing a trick on Liang Jiahui. This is the first time in these days that Lao Cannon is no longer listless, and looking at his rare interest, I can't bear to tear him down. It's a harmless trick anyway. When the old cannon saw me, he also pinched his eyes at me, signaling me not to cause sabotage.
Liang Jiahui saw that the fish under his feet were swimming very slowly, so he really tentatively stretched out his hand slowly. The fish in the water did not seem to sense the danger approaching, and still swam leisurely. Liang Jiahui's hand reached closer and closer to the water, and she suddenly strained her palm, and quickly grabbed one of the fish. Seeing that Liang Jiahui's fingers had already grasped the body of the fish, she suddenly grunted and plunged into the water. The water by the lake was shallow, and Liang Jiahui immediately stood up from the water. Seeing that Liang Jiahui was soaking wet, she reached out to wipe the water on her face and said, "Wow, what kind of fish is this, it was so electrified that it almost electrocuted me." ”
Seeing Liang Jiahui's embarrassed appearance, the old cannon laughed and said, "Those who count people are counted." ”
Leung Ka-wai came out of the lake wet and said, "Now I understand what it means to build one's own happiness on the pain of others. ”
At this time, Xiao Ni and Xiao Di came over with spearguns, saw Liang Jiahui's embarrassed appearance, and hurriedly asked what happened? Liang Jiahui didn't seem angry, and he didn't have any intention of complaining about the old cannon. She smiled and said, "The fish in this lake are so strange, they have electricity on them, and they will electrify me into the lake at once." ”
After listening to Liang Jiahui's words and looking at her expression, I couldn't help but pay attention to her. This girl seems to be a bit uneasy, no wonder she will be sent by Xiao Ni's family to be Ruoyu's assistant. In the future, if she looks at Ruoyu, there shouldn't be any chaos.
After standing by the lake for a while, I remembered the situation with my sister here that night, bit by bit, as if it was just yesterday. My mind is full of the image of Ah Mei, and I feel bored with fishing. But the old cannon showed a strong interest in the speargun, and like a child holding a treasure, he pulled the trigger again and again, and watched the net bloom in mid-air like a flower, and then threw it into the lake.
After catching seven or eight fish weighing two or three catties, Xiao Ni found that there was no way to grill fish in this place. Fortunately, the younger brother let people carry in a pressure cooker, and everyone used this pot to stuff a pot of fish pieces and boil a pot of fish soup. The fish in this mountain field is really extraordinary, almost without any condiments, just sprinkled with some salt, it is already indescribably delicious.
The food that the younger brother got was also a high-tech product, and it was space food used by astronauts. I have to admit that rich people can be so willful, and an outdoor adventure that was originally full of hardships and hardships can also be made into such a comfortable and even a small leisure activity.
It was getting dark soon, but this time everyone was well prepared, everyone had a set of warm clothes and pants to keep their body warm, plus snow sleeping bags, and a tent where no cold wind could penetrate, solar heaters, and everyone stayed in the tent and didn't feel cold at all. On this night, there was no movement outside except the sound of the wind. I soon fell into a deep sleep. A dreamless night.
