Chapter 32: The Phantom of the Snowy Mountain

The next day, early in the morning, we got into the truck and left the unit, and last night we waited for the squad leader to come back and prepared what we needed this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

We all received military dry rations, compressed biscuits, ham sausages and luncheon meat, instant noodles. The squad leader and deputy squad leader received 95 rifles, and one of us carried an electric baton. They said the mission was not dangerous, so our recruits did not have guns.

The car drove for more than 2 hours and stopped. Then the squad leader came out of the cab and shouted for us to get out of the car. We were very happy to go out of the army for the first time in two months, and we didn't take this mission seriously at all, I only spent this mission as if it were a tour. Obviously, the squad leader and deputy squad leader are too, thinking like this, what's so difficult about finding someone. But this mission is not as simple as we thought, and the squad leader and deputy squad leader also bid farewell to their military careers because of this mission.

We jumped out of the car and carried our own bulky backpacks, which looked bulky because we were wearing too much. After we finished the roll call, Liu Zhiyong led us to a nearby village. In this icy and snowy land, the vision is so wide and the mood is so happy.

We came to the village where the car stopped, and the houses here were all low and seemed to be made of earth, and the snow was so thick that it almost swallowed up the low houses. We followed Liu Zhiyong to a house hanging at the door, a store in the Tianshan Mountains, and there was a heat when the thick curtain was opened. At this time, a boss dressed as a Uyghur in his 50s said with a smile: "Welcome, military masters, what do you want to buy?" ”

"Do you have authentic Xinjiang wine here?" Huang Hai asked the boss, "Yes, if you have something to do, I still have to pack it for my home-brewed food." The boss said happily.

"Just 10 catties, your home-brewed one, the degree should be high." Liu Zhiyong said to the boss. "Comrades, take out your kettle, wait for the bottom of the wine mountain to drink a little cold to refresh yourself, and put the comfort in your cotton clothes so that it will not freeze."

The boss came over with a large pot of red liquid in a plastic bucket, and when he opened the cap, the sweet smell of wine came to his nose. Huang Hai, poured a small glass and tasted it, "Not bad, good wine." Liu Zhiyong asked each of us to fill the kettle.

"Master Jun, are you going to go up to Tianshan?" The boss asked. "yes, let's go training." Liu Zhiyong knew that he could not reveal secrets. "Let's see if anyone picks snow lotus."

"Hehe, there is no snow lotus now, it's winter." The boss said immediately. "Why do you dare to do so much?" Liu Zhiyong said a word, and the boss stopped interjecting.

"Master Jun, do you want naan cakes, they will buy naan cakes in my store when they come to explore the Tianshan Mountains, and they are all made by my wife herself." The boss said again

"Okay, just give us two bags, by the way, you said that those who come to Tianshan to explore are all buying things in your store, have you seen 4 people, three men and one woman, from other places." Huang Hai squinted his little eyes at the boss.

"I can't remember exactly, it should seem like there is, Master Jun, I'll go get you a bag." The boss touched his head and went into the back hall of the store.

At this time, we finished filling all the wine, and the boss had 18 naan cakes for each of us, and we wrapped the naan in a plastic bag and put them in our backpacks. Liu Zhiyong gave the boss 200 yuan, and the boss said that as long as 160 yuan, he had to find Liu Zhiyong's money, but Liu Zhiyong did not ask for it. And he walked us out of the store.

We walked along the village road in the direction of the Tien Shan Mountains. At this time, we heard a voice, we followed the sound and looked, an old lady who was dressed in tatters and was very thick and dirty really wanted us to come over with a cane.

"Mom! Hell yes! Li Ping saw this old lady and hurriedly hid behind me. Liu Zhiyong hurriedly covered Li Ping's mouth. The old lady seemed to hear Li Ping's words and raised her head to look at us. I still remember what kind of face it was at that time. A face that is so terrifying that you will never forget it, and it seems that two eyeballs will roll out of her eye sockets at any moment.

I looked at my comrades-in-arms, and they were all scared. "It's not that Hades doesn't accept you, it's just that you still have value." The old lady passed by us with a muttering in her mouth.

We watched as the old lady passed us, and then the old lady came into a low house in front of us. "The earth net is robbed, the heavenly doctor is dead, and the lonely Chen is gone. You can't escape," came the old lady's voice from inside the house. Nine of us, you look at me, I look at you, neither of us understands," neurosis. Zhao Shiming said a word, and then they laughed, and I always felt that there was something, the old lady looked at me deliberately when she passed by me, could it be that the last sentence was said to me, or all the words were said to me.

While I was pondering, Liu Zhiyong led everyone to move forward again. "Why? Lu Xiaofeng: "Huang Hai called me when he saw that I didn't follow." I immediately followed, but I had an indescribable depression in my heart, what is the Earth Net, the Heavenly Doctor, the Dead God Lonely Chen? These names are not good words, so I have been at the back of the line.

We left the village and came to the foot of the Tien Shan Mountains, and we all covered our faces with military cotton caps at first, because it was a little hot to walk, so I rolled up the cotton hats. We kept going, but suddenly I heard a sound behind me, I looked back and didn't see anything, so we walked for an hour but I felt like I had someone behind me, I looked back a few times but didn't see anything.

We walked to a small hill in the Tianshan Mountains, Liu Zhiyong told us to stop and rest, this time I turned back again, I vaguely saw a shadow floating behind a snowy mountain bag, but I didn't see footprints. Liu Zhiyong ordered us to eat, ate some military dry food, and drank a sip of wine.

"Now we have arrived at the Tianshan Mountain Range, we can reach the main peak of the Tianshan Mountains after crossing two hills, now we have to divide into two teams to advance, search, we currently only have mobile phones with Huang Hai, I lead Lu Xiaofeng, Kuang Hai, Zhao Shiming, Huang Hai leads Xue Jie, Li Ping, Kuanghai, Qiu Jun group. After three days, whether or not anyone is found to meet here. Liu Zhiyong said.

So we split into two teams and started moving forward. Liu Zhiyong led the way in front, "Let's smoke a cigarette" Zhao Shiming took out a box of Honghe from his pocket. One of us ordered one, this red river is relatively strong, and I was a little dizzy after smoking half of it. But I always felt like someone was following us along the way, but I never noticed anything.

"Everyone be careful, let's try to walk together, everyone must be careful not to walk around, there are many ice holes in the snowy mountains." Liu Zhiyong reminds each and every one of us.
