The world is proud to conquer Mount Everest, and explorers from all over the world have climbed the mountain with a variety of purposes, knocking down the rocks at the summit to make a memento and proclaiming their glorious moment to the world.

Lin Xuan stood here, without the slightest joy. On the contrary, he felt heavy all the time, because when others reached the summit, the climb was the end, while their journey had just begun.

"We can't conquer the mirage." "We can only wait. ”

Lin Xuan didn't see it that way, he looked back at where he came from, convinced that Samantha would have a way to make the moving mountain in the mirage reflect its original form.

He believes in the ability of Russian spy satellites, and even more believes that Samantha's insistence on joining the mountaineering team must have her intentions.

He and Baldur looked side by side to the west, and gradually, the sky began to fall with snow, and the fog ahead, and the distant mountains that could still be seen in shape were all obscured.

"Let's go back." Lin Xuan said.

Baldur shook his head: "No, I want to watch it for a while." You know? When it snows, a lot of strange things appear on Mount Everest. ”

"Really? For example—"Lin Xuan was quite interested.

"I heard from my father that he had seen huge landmasses floating in the sky, very realistic and very weird. He is a very good mountain guide and always does things that no one else can do. Baldur replied.

Lin Xuan looked at the sky, the gray mist had already covered a qiē, and the farthest point of sight was only thirty meters.

He didn't care about what Baldur said at first, but when he heard that "there was a huge land floating," his heart suddenly moved.

"What kind of land is that? Did he describe it? Lin Xuan asked.

Baldur found a jutting rock and sat down, pulled out a stainless steel flask, and took a big sip.

Lin Xuan did not object to mountaineers drinking, but at the moment they were at the top of Mount Everest, and the weather conditions were poor, so drinking was obviously not a good thing. It's just that drinking alcohol makes it easier for Baldur to get into the narrator's state and tell all the old things.

"Of course he said, it's a huge landmass. Using the mountains near Mount Everest as a reference, he roughly calculated that the length of the land was about 400 kilometers, the width was about 50 kilometers, and the thickness was at least about two kilometers. Baldur said.

Lin Xuan didn't want to refute the other party, but that group of numbers was extremely terrifying, and the land was floating in the air, it was really unbelievable and unimaginable.

"My father was not incompetent, he was associated with the lost continent of Atlantis. After returning home, I repeatedly consulted ancient books, and finally proved that it was the Lost Continent. He wanted to rush over to meet him, but the land in the sky accelerated and fell, falling into the valley in the distance. My father went to the valley and found nothing, and then he disappeared on another ascent organized by Russian explorers. Baldur said.

"He knew it was a mirage, and a mirage was impossible to touch." Lin Xuan immediately discovered the unreasonableness in it.

Baldur stared westward for a long time, as if he had seen the mirage that his father had encountered, and his eyes remained motionless, like a seated Buddha.

Lin Xuan repeated his words, but he couldn't get a word of response.

The cause of the mirage is the refraction, diffusion, and diffraction of light and shadow, and the mirage encountered by ordinary people can always find the same building from another place on the earth, because that is the prototype of the image.

"Let's go back." Lin Xuan went over and patted Baldur's shoulder.

"Sometimes, I really want to go into that fog. I've read a lot of ancient Nepalese religious texts that say that there is a 'land of fog' around the Himalayas, and that is the hidden side of the world. Just as there are two sides to a coin, there are two sides to the world, both visible and hidden. What we see is its glamorous side, and the dark and ugly side is deliberately hidden by it. If you enter the Land of Mist, you can see a different side of the world, but once you walk in, you will never come back. Baldur said in a hoarse voice.

Lin Xuan suddenly felt a chill in his back, because Baldur used the word "it" repeatedly, as if the two of them were not facing a majestic mountain composed of bluestone and snow, but something alive.

If the mountain is alive and the fog is alive - how much more unknown is there in the mountains and in the fog?

"Boom boom" twice, in the dense fog, as if a boulder suddenly cracked from the mountain, rolled into the deep valley, and the echo was endless for a long time.

"How much do you know about Atlantis?" Baldur asked.

Lin Xuan could recite a lot of information related to Atlantis, but those Baldur should know the same.

He said: "Atlantis and sank - it is said in many books, even in the Centuries, that the continents will never sink, but only try to avoid the great war of the century." As your father described, the Lost Continent floated in the air, completely untouched by the war. However, this argument is untenable with scientists. ”

Baldur nodded: "Good, you know a lot. ”

Lin Xuan nodded: "I've won the award, I'm actually ashamed, I haven't been able to grasp the core of what you said." Baldur, can you tell me what you want to get from reaching the top this time? ”

Baldur replied: "Find out." My relationship with my father was the same, and I was convinced that his death was an accidental murder. ”

Lin Xuan secretly complained to himself, if even the tour guide had a ghost in his heart, this mountaineering operation would have failed halfway.

He was about to forcibly take Baldur down the mountain, but the wind was blowing around him, and the snow was flying so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.

With a buzz, he heard a loud tearing sound in the air, and his heart seemed to be split into two, and the shadow was only single, unable to think.

Suddenly, he noticed that Baldur was moving outward, half of his body entering the world of mist.

"Baldur, come back, come back soon......"

He could not see Baldur in distress and could only shout loudly.

Just above Baldur's body, Lin Xuan suddenly saw a large piece of "dirt" floating in. It was a huge piece of dirt with flowers stacked on top of each other, and the sound of song and dance resounded in the sky.

"Is that ...... That's what your father said...... Continent? Lin Xuan shouted hoarsely.

"That's it...... It's ......" It was a long time before Baldur replied from the far end of the fog.

"Where are you?" Lin Xuan asked again.

"I'm in a very happy place, and I can't miss it." Baldur replied.

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly, because they were on Mount Everest, even if they felt physically and mentally happy, they would not leave Mount Everest to go somewhere else. All of this qiē should be hallucinations caused by altitude sickness.
