After waiting for more than half an hour, Wu Jian had already descended to a distance of more than 100 meters, and at this time, Sankra began to go down the second time, because there was no need to open the way, so he quickly caught up with Wu Jian, and asked Wu Jian to rest first, and he would be a pioneer in the first time.

Originally, those warrior monks were going down to open the way, but considering that they had no experience in mountaineering, and the matter of opening the road was extremely dangerous, everyone didn't want them to participate, so let them wait on it with peace of mind.

Biaozi's altitude sickness is very bad, and it will be good if he doesn't hold back, so we don't plan to let him go down to open the way, so the responsibility of opening the road falls on me, Sankla, and Wu Jian.

Biaozi was addicted to smoking again, and while smoking, he said to me: "Lao Yang, pay attention when you go down, some ice layers are very fragile and easy to collapse, it's okay to slow down, don't put yourself in it." ”

I snatched the cigarette butt from his hand and said, "You have such a bad altitude sickness, so you should smoke less cigarettes and rest for a while." As for the matter of opening the way, you don't have to worry, I'm not a rookie egg, and I will definitely pay attention to what should be paid attention to. ”

A few warrior monks had been watching the progress below from the edge of the cliff, and I told them to move out, take out the safety belt and tie it to the chain, then took a deep breath and began to descend below.

We all wore non-slip warm gloves on our hands, grasping on the cold iron chain, which was naturally tight, and in the past, we were climbing the cliff with a rope the thickness of our thumbs, even if we wore gloves, our palms were also strangled by the rope.

Now this chain is different, perhaps its size has been specially designed, and it is just right to grasp in the palm of your hand, and it is very strong, even if a gust of wind blows, the whole chain will not swing much.

This is not the first time I have climbed a mountain cliff, and with the way opened by my predecessors, the speed is naturally very fast, and in less than ten minutes, I went down more than 200 meters. Looking down, there was still a distance of about fifty meters, and they could catch up with Wu Jian and them.

When they arrived at Wu Jian and Sankla, they were resting. Seeing me coming, Sankla immediately handed over the chisel, and he gasped and said, "We are tired, stop here and rest for a while, and you can give us a while." ”

I smiled and nodded. He took the chisel and smashed it against the ice on the chain. "Span!" With a crisp sound, the ice shattered and fell off the cliff, revealing another chain of nearly a meter.

At first, I didn't think much of it, I just felt that this work was not as difficult as I imagined, but after ten minutes, I felt that something was wrong, because it was getting harder and harder for my breathing, and my heart was about to stop beating.

I know it all too well. Under altitude sickness, coupled with physical work, you need more oxygen, so you want to inhale a lot to make up for the lack of oxygen. However, the oxygen content in the air is already low, and no matter how quickly you breathe, the oxygen in your lungs is still not enough, and eventually people feel out of breath.

After a few more minutes, I couldn't hold on anymore and felt like my chest was tight. Similar to a person who was suffocating to death, I had no choice but to relax and use the safety belt on my body. Hang on a chain to rest.

Looking at the valley at our feet, although it is located on the mountainside of Nanga Bhava Peak, that is, at an altitude of less than four thousand meters, at our current speed, it is estimated that we will not be able to go down there in a day and a half.

I'm worried in my heart. At this time, the iron chain began to shake, I thought it was Wu Jian or Sankra came down, and when I looked up, I didn't expect it to be a young warrior monk, who was rushing to me.

When I arrived, seeing that I was surprised, the warrior monk smiled at me in Mandarin that he was not very fluent in: "The progress is too slow, I came down to help, you can rest for a while." ”

I was not modest, and when I handed the chisel over, I grabbed a stone next to me and moved my body to give him a place to move.

However, he was worried that he was not measured when he lowered the chisel, so he reminded: "The ice is actually very fragile, don't use too much force when you lower the chisel, so as not to cause the surrounding ice to collapse, and you will be buried alive." ”

The young warrior monk smiled and nodded, saying that he had been observing us for a long time and had basically mastered the trick of chiseling, so I didn't have to worry too much.

This warrior monk was not affected by altitude sickness, and his hands and feet were very sharp, and he chiseled up ice cubes, and his speed was much faster than mine, even Wu Jian couldn't catch up with his speed.

Later, the remaining four warrior monks also came down to help, and the further down they went, the less ice on the chains, and the progress suddenly became faster.

By noon we had gone down more than 2,000 meters, and we estimated that if there were no accidents, we would have been able to descend into the valley before dark.

After eating some things to replenish his strength, under the leadership of Wu Jian, the ice chiseling work in the afternoon continued.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, we were only a few hundred meters away from the valley at our feet, and due to the temperature difference, there was no ice on the remaining chains, which meant that our ice digging was over.

But because of the perennial bareness, the remaining iron chains are already rusty, and when you touch them lightly with a chisel, a large piece of rust falls on them, which looks very unsafe.

We didn't want anything to happen at the last moment, so we abandoned the chain and took it out and fastened it to a huge rock, and began to climb down the rope.

Climbing the rope is much harder than climbing the chain, and the speed will be much slower, but it will only be a matter of a while, after all, we are only three or four hundred meters away from reaching our destination.

At half past four in the afternoon, after more than an hour of hard work, we finally went down to the bottom safely, and everyone's faces showed the joy of victory.

Maybe the nerves had been tense before, and I didn't feel anything wrong with my body, but when I relaxed at the moment, I found that the muscles in my body were very sore, especially the two arms, which could barely be lifted.

I took a closer look at the summit of Nanga Bhava, and the valley we are in is irregularly circular, and it happens to be surrounded by glaciers of different heights, and from a distance, it looks like a lotus flower in full bloom, which looks very beautiful.

Now that we are on the scene, we find that this huge valley is not as beautiful as we imagined, it is full of boulders of different sizes, it looks like rows of huge sharp animal teeth, and just not far from us, there are many white animal bones, which makes people involuntarily produce an ominous atmosphere.

There are only a few places on the valley floor where there is a layer of soil, which is overgrown with unknown weeds, and more places are covered by a grayish-yellow rock, layered on top of each other, causing the valley floor to vary in height and there are huge cracks.

The shallower crack is only more than ten meters deep, and the deeper one is not visible at all, and there is a black hole inside, and I don't know what kind of place is below.

I was a little curious, took out a powerful flashlight, turned on the power, and was about to go to the nearest crack to have a look, but was stopped by Sankla, and he said to me seriously: "Don't go over, there is something inside." ”

I was stunned for a moment, then asked, "It's so desolate here, what can be hiding in the cracks?" Could it be a snake? ”

Sankra shook his head and said with some seriousness: "According to Master Nyingma, those deeper cracks are the lair of white-haired ghosts, they are tall and powerful, and they can grab living creatures and send them into their mouths, which ordinary people can't deal with. ”

White-haired ghost? What the hell is that, it's the first time I've heard the name, and it feels weird.

The others were also at a loss, and it was obvious that it was the first time they had heard of such a thing.

Sankra told us that the Nyingma Living Buddha had carefully told him before he died that in order to obtain the holy water, he had to pass through three dangerous places, and the first dangerous place was these cracks in front of him, because there was a huge monster with a size of more than two and a half meters, which was extremely fierce and fierce, and immediately began to hunt and kill living creatures.

The monsters were covered in thick white hair, their eyes were blood-red, and their mouths had four long fangs that could bite off a person's neck in one bite. But the most powerful thing is its pair of giant claws, not to mention the infinite power, and the sharpness is abnormal, once a person is slapped by its giant claws, even if he is lucky not to die, a large piece of skin and flesh will definitely be gone.

I was taken aback and couldn't help asking, "Fuck, that's amazing, did the Nyingma Living Buddha tell you how to kill these monsters?" ”

Sankra smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Master Nyingma warned me that if you are really unfortunate enough to encounter white-haired ghosts, don't think about destroying them, but flee as far as you can, because no one can be their one." ”

The mark was anxious all of a sudden, and scolded at the top of his throat: "Your sister! Why didn't you say something so important earlier? I said I was going to get him a few guns anyway, but now with a few machetes in our hands, how are we going to deal with them? ”

Sankra said tangledly: "You treat me as an idiot, if I can get a gun, I won't talk nonsense here, do you think we are still on an errand in the scientific research team, we can have whatever we want?" ”

Biaozi said: "Fart, if you had told me earlier, I would have been kneeling to beg the third uncle, and I would have to get some equipment by my side, now it's good, at this point, what do you say?" ”

Sankra glanced at the surroundings and comforted us: "Don't think about the bad things, you see that the environment here is so bad, you can't even see a single caterpillar, and those white-haired ghosts have already starved to death." (To be continued.) )
