Chapter 217: Scream
Soon they marched to the foot of the mountain, and in the afternoon, the whole team began to advance to the position of the snow line, because it was summer, so Kunlun was not completely frozen, and there were only tenacious ferns and plateau mosses on the rocks exposed on the surface, and there were no signs of life here for the time being, not only cold, but also lack of oxygen.
Chaozi, who could still laugh and play at the beginning, has also begun to become honest at this time, and he and Zhuo Xiong, who have rich experience in the plateau, took the initiative to replace Zheluo as a guide, because there is almost nothing he can provide here, and all he can do is to share the burden of the burden for a person like Lao Wang who is dragging behind in the team.
Cha Wenbin divided the team into three parts, and Zhuo Xiong and Chaozi, the two plateau soldiers, were responsible for exploring the way. Yoko-faced Dashan stayed with Zheluo and Lao Wang with another subordinate, after all, he was the weakest person here and needed to be taken care of, and he was in charge of breaking off with Lao Dao and the remaining soldier.
Zheluo repeatedly told this snow-capped mountain to pay attention to a few points: one is to prevent avalanches, the other is to be afraid of snow holes, and the other is a landslide caused by the overall separation of ice blocks, each of which can kill people, although he has lived in this generation all year round, but it is almost impossible to distinguish what will be under the step that is about to be taken.
Above the snow line, there is a white mist, no one knows how high this mountain is, if you want to find the dragon, you must be able to climb to the top of the mountain to see.
The most difficult thing is to pass through the clouds, which are not only high humidity, but also have very low visibility, and the clouds here are still very thick and low, Cha Wenbin used a rope to tie grasshoppers to the beginning of the method.
The first wave of people must give the following wave of people a safety reminder before they can continue to walk, the signal is to pull the rope in the hand, although this method is simple, but there are two drawbacks: one is that the efficiency of mountaineering is extremely low, and the other is that the people behind can not see the footprints left by the people in front of them, and can not be completely copied.
Soon, Chaozi and Zhuoxiong took the lead in plunging into the clouds, and as soon as they entered the clouds, they could only walk with their own scout's directional experience, because they couldn't see any references, and in such a large and unfamiliar area, it was equivalent to walking with their eyes closed, which was also quite dangerous. Because there is a famous theory among scientists, if you are given a large enough open field without any obstacles, and then you are blindfolded and start walking straight ahead with your intuition, and in the end you will find that you will return to the original point, and you will end up with a circle. For this reason, the scientific community has long asserted, and this is also the most important point that scouts need to overcome, sometimes their intuition is often wrong, and they need to constantly revise their own intuition, that is, to go against intuition, which requires strong psychological quality and professional field training.
Originally, Cha Wenbin thought that after coming in, he would still be able to see a little, but the complexity of the situation was beyond his expectations. Not only are the clouds thick inside, but also mixed with the whistling mountain wind, these clouds seem to be moving in a circular motion around the mountain, and people even reach the point where they cannot communicate with each other in words, so they can only let the people in front of them take them with them.
Suddenly, Cha Wenbin felt that the rope hanging from his waist was pulled forward violently, and both ends of the entire team were pulled in the middle by a huge force.
Someone began to shout, but he couldn't hear what was shouting, and he couldn't see what was happening, but he vaguely heard the sound of guns and the howls of people in the call of the wind, and the sound of gunfire was continuous.
The chaos had subsided in less than half a minute, and everything seemed to be calm again. Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong hurriedly paused the team and gathered everyone together. There was a group of people standing outside surrounding Cha Wenbin, Lao Dao and He Yichao, and the three of them squatted on the ground, and the human wall blocked the wind before they could barely have a difficult conversation.
The old knife pulled his throat and shouted desperately: "It's my group that has an accident, and I don't know who it is!" ”
Then Chaozi immediately got up and tapped the number of people, there were originally nine people left in the team, but now there are only eight left, and Chaozi lay on the ground for a long time and groped, only to find that there was already a basin-sized hole on the ground that he had just passed, and there were still hot blood stains left at the hole, which were sticky on his hands.
He hurriedly reported the situation, and then counted the number of people according to the substitution wall, and found that one of the four people brought by the old knife was missing!
The old knife squatted there with a dead face, his fists clenched tightly, which brought five brothers, three were gone in a blink of an eye, only one person and himself were left, but now he only went to the foot of the mountain, Mo said that the top of the mountain, even halfway up the mountain may not have arrived, but the team has become a remnant, he feels that this is an unprecedented frustration, and at the same time he also knows that in this case, the chance of his comrade-in-arms being rescued is equal to zero.
They had to start adjusting, and the remaining seven people were divided into two factions, Chaozi, Zhuo Xiong, and Lao Dao and the remaining soldier walked in front, and the four of them held each other's shoulders and were linked by ropes around their waists. Behind stood the remaining four, keeping their distance from the man in front, each staring at the back of their own head.
An unprecedented sense of danger spread through everyone's hearts, and no one knew exactly what had just happened, but in that moment, a life was gone. Walking on ice is the best way to describe their current state.
The clouds and low temperature made everyone's eyebrows and eyelids condense into a thick layer of ice flowers, breathing began to become more and more difficult, Lao Wang was forced to inhale oxygen several times during the period, and the cross-flesh-faced mountain almost grabbed his waist and pulled this chubby body up with the strength of his arm, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid Lao Wang would have died in such a harsh environment.
Cha Wenbin once said that everything in the Dao comes from the original nature, and Tiandou, people seem so small. There is no need for any difficult ghost spirits, but such a mountain can bury waves of people who are trying to hunt for treasure. Now walking on this difficult road, he understands that if he wants to get a glimpse of the way of heaven, where is it enough to rely on a single "Ruyi Book", if everyone in the world can rely on a book to become enlightened, then I am afraid that there will not be only a few names left on the Taoist Danqing.
Hang on! He still has a lot of things to do, the little girl's soul is still suffering, and he can't even feel that dream for a year, but this doesn't mean that it's a good phenomenon, he has offended too many things, he can't fix him Cha Wenbin, and his relatives are always okay. Over the years, how many of the people who have had dealings with him have ended up benefiting? This time alone, three lives have been lost, and if it weren't for his action, it wouldn't have cost people their lives, no matter how you say it, it has nothing to do with him.
Lonely Star! Cha Wenbin doesn't want to have such a numerology, since God has given him such a life, he can either die with it or go against it with his chest! He didn't want to have any more accidents, because God tortured him too much, he didn't lose the world, but the sky did lose him! He even began to have a terrible thought in his mind, if he couldn't achieve the Tao, then he would be turned upside down as a ghost, and those who owed him would have to be paid back one by one.
I don't know how long I've been walking, I don't know if it's day or night, my legs have been numb, my lips have been frozen and cracked, everyone's body has reached the limit of almost collapse, except for Cha Wenbin, the others are really a walking corpse, because the small bronze wheel on his chest is always bursting with a warm current, and it is getting warmer and warmer.
When someone noticed that a bright starry sky was starting to appear overhead, they finally broke through the clouds, and low temperatures and fatigue were the biggest enemies to face now. The more you can't relax at this moment, how can these battle-hardened veterans not understand this truth, but the body can no longer be unified with the mind, everyone fell on the snow and gasped for breath, the thin plateau air was originally low in oxygen, but at this time it was like entering the early morning forest, indescribably sweet.
Some people want to sleep, such as Jerro, he really can't stand it. Although Cha Wenbin has temperature, his physical strength is almost exhausted, but it seems that he is still in the most optimistic situation at present, struggling to dig out anthracite from everyone's bags to ignite, although the firepower is much smaller than at the bottom of the mountain, but there is always a trace of fire.
He melted the snow in a pot and boiled ginger tea, the water here never reached 100 degrees, and after feeding them a little bit one by one, people with better physique began to gradually ease up. The high-calorie food is swallowed mechanically in the mouth, and no one can chew the taste, but they all know that they have to eat, because as long as they don't eat, they won't be able to see the sun tomorrow.
After recovering for a while, Zhuo Xiong and Chaozi and Lao Dao dragged their numb bodies and dug a few sleeping pits in the snow, this kind of simple dwelling similar to the Shaanxi cave is the best place to keep out the cold at present, they set up a tent in it, and no one set up a guard this night, because no one had any strength, wrapped in a sleeping bag and fell asleep.
Except for Lao Wang's worse condition, the others were just weak, so they gave Lao Wang medicine and injections, and Cha Wenbin specially arranged for Lao Wang to sleep in the middle of the crowd, which could warm up a little. He also forgot the snoring of the two snoring kings, and perhaps when people were extremely tired, they would not even bother with the earthquake.
At night, the old knife heard a "hissing" sound in his dream, very similar to the feeling that the plastic bag was cut open by scissors, maybe he was too tired, he had always been alert to hear this sound, and his body actually stood without a conditioned reflex, only the sentence in his head: Forget it, sleep.
After a moment, "Ah! "There was a scream, and I thought through the whole valley
