Chapter 5: The Snow Monster

After all, we are three people, and we were made by the black man's irritable actions, and our faces sank.

The black man also knew that it was not good for him to provoke us at this time. He had to suppress his anger and said in Chinese, "I'm praying that Nima must have been killed by the snow monster." ”

After listening to it, I repeated his words again in my heart. I've heard the word snow monsters, and there have been many reports about them, but I've always felt that this is a lead, and reporting them is nothing more than amusement, how can there be such a thing in reality?

I looked incredulous and shook my head.

The black man also explained, saying that there are indeed snow monsters in Tibet, especially under Tanggula Mountain, and there are two kinds of big and small, and the small snow monsters are the same as ghosts, they are invisible, wandering around people, they love to be funny and stealing things, and the big snow monsters are often arranged by God in the world, specially guarding certain things, once outsiders break in, they use the power of giants to pinch outsiders to death.

I saw that the black man was very serious when he spoke, and I wanted to laugh at him, but I didn't. In addition, I would like to give an example to break his concept straight, but I also find it very difficult.

I struggled with how to help him, and the iron donkey spoke again. He told the black man to stop praying and quickly contact the nearby Tibetans, especially to see if he could find the police and do something about Nima's death.

I don't know if the black man listened to it or not, anyway, he stood up without saying a word and left slowly.

To be more serious, this is a place where Tibetan birds don't, and even if there are police, if they want to find them, they can't drive a car, so they have to ride a horse or a bicycle. And the police must be very weak.

But we are all policemen, if we are in charge of this case, I believe it will definitely be better than the local police station, the problem is that we have to meddle in this case, and the matter of saving Jiang Shaoyan will be delayed.

I weighed it in my heart, there are priorities, and I still think it's better to deal with Jiang Shaoyan's matter first.

I watched the black man leave, and I didn't say anything. After that, we discussed the next plan.

Yin Yin's meaning, Nima died, and all the dogs in the yard died, and it was very difficult for us to change another batch of dogs, in this case, it was better than nothing, so we might as well make do with the original batch.

Iron Donkey and I agreed, and Iron Donkey said, "It's not peaceful here, why the murderer killed Nima, we don't know, but we don't want to get involved in this matter, so we simply don't stay here longer, let's march to the Little North Pole overnight." ”

I disagree with this idea a little and think it's hasty, but Yin Yin has too much tacit understanding with the iron donkey, and at this time, she strongly agrees with the iron donkey.

I'm one-to-two, and if I want to oppose it, it's invalid, I can only follow them.

We don't stay in front of Nima's yard any longer, and we don't have a duty to protect the site. We went back the way we came.

This time it was much easier to go back than here, especially when we went down the snow slope, we followed the footprints when we came, and we didn't encounter unexpected snow pit traps.

When I got back to the tent, I found the dogs lying on their stomachs asleep. Yin Yin said that I woke up the dog, and she packed her luggage with the iron donkey.

I didn't want to call a dog, I always felt that it wasn't a technical job, and when I met a dog with a big temper, don't suddenly wake up and lose my temper and bite me or something, but now it's just us, I don't do this job, and if I can't do it, I have to do it.

I weighed it and went into battle.

After waking up a few dogs, I realized a problem, the dog was sleeping very deeply and had a feeling of passing out. And when I woke up the big yellow dog, the moment it stood up, I saw a strip of cloth pressed under it.

This is something I haven't encountered before.

I was the first to feed the big yellow dog a deerskin, and I don't know how, but he was very kind to me, and when he woke up, he whined a few times and wanted to come and lick me.

I ignored it and pulled it away, and I picked up the strip of cloth, opened it and looked at it.

The sentence written on it is in Tibetan, and I can't understand it at all, but what makes me sensitive is that it is written in blood.

I called Yin Yin and the iron donkey, and showed them the strips of cloth. The iron donkey frowned after reading it, and Yin Yin stared at the words and read them several times.

I was shocked, and I said that Yin Yin is terrible, and I even know Tibetan?

I waited until she finished reading the strip of cloth and asked, "What's written on it?" ”

Yin Yin shook his head and said that he didn't know the specific content, but it was definitely something bad for us.

As soon as I was discouraged, I said frankly that I had such high expectations for her, and anyone else could guess this conclusion.

We also calculated whether it was the murderer who came and stunned the dog, and left this strip of cloth under the body of the big yellow dog. But there is a suspicion in this, why didn't the murderer kill the dog?

The iron donkey also looked around. It was empty around us, and there were no obstacles. The murderer has to be nearby, and there is nothing to hide.

I'm afraid that we are also targeted by the murderer, and even this trip to the Little Arctic will be followed by the murderer's ghost? I voiced my worries.

The iron donkey snorted, took out the shotgun, patted the body and asked me, "Apprentice, who can resist the bullets of the shotgun?" ”

I know the power of a shotgun, let alone a person, even a wild boar coated in thick resin may not be able to carry it.

Without waiting for me to answer, the iron donkey said confidently, "Don't think about the murderer, if he dares to come, Lao Tzu will dare to send him to Yama to report." ”

I was worried for a moment. After a little more work, we finished all the preparations and set off.

The group of dogs were all leashed and pulled on sleighs. There were all kinds of equipment and food on the sleigh, and we all stood up.

I noticed that before we got up, the dogs were sledding with ease, and when we got up, they had a lot of effort.

I'm afraid I'll tire them out, especially don't strike halfway, so I suggested that Iron Donkey and Yin Yin, let's get down and run with the dog team first, and when we can't run anymore, let's get on the sleigh again.

I thought there was nothing wrong with that, but they both shook their heads and retorted to me. The iron donkey asked me, "Do you know what people fear most in cold places?" ”

I thought about it for a moment and replied, "Freeze!" "The iron donkey sneered at me like an old cat, and told me, isn't it nonsense that you answer like this?

Yin Yin answered and explained, saying that in a cold place, he was most afraid of sweating!

I don't understand, isn't it a good thing that the heart says that sweating means heat? Yin Yin told me another example, if we really run forward with the dog team, our bodies will sweat a lot, and when we get tired and stop running, these sweats will not be dispersed, and when we are made by the cold, they will become frozen on our bodies, so that we will be colder, and even if we run again because of this, if this vicious circle continues, what will happen in the end?

I was frightened and realized that this was indeed the case. I don't have any sympathy with the dog team anymore, so I quickly and honestly stood on it.

In addition, I also connected another thing in my heart, I once heard a friend who has a dog say that dog hair is particularly warm, and dogs' apocrine glands are not as developed as humans and other animals, and they often stick out their tongues to dissipate heat.

Although this is a flaw, it is not necessary to let the dog pull a sled in the cold without thinking about their sweating and freezing. I secretly praise the strength of Tibetan wisdom.

We set out in the middle of the night, and then we continued to run through the valley of the Little Arctic until dawn the next day.

I kept standing, and at first I didn't feel anything, but gradually I was invaded by the cold, and I was so cold that I couldn't sleep well, and finally I couldn't stay up, so I moved on the sleigh and fell asleep in a daze. And after entering the Little North Pole, there are small snowflakes floating in the sky, plus the wind is blowing. We were all looking out for our own things, and as soon as I slept like this, I forgot about my sleigh ride, and suddenly rolled off the sled.

The moment I hit the ground, I woke up, especially when my face rushed down to the snow, and the biting energy made my brain buzz.

What's even more painful is that when I stood up and saw that it was broken, the dog team continued to drive forward, and neither the iron donkey nor Yin Yin noticed that I was left behind.

I ran fast in the snow with almost no legs, but I was not as fast as the dogs, and if I delayed a little longer and was thrown away by the dog team, it would be difficult for me to find them, especially since this place is deserted, and if I stay here, the consequences will be certain death.

I shouted at the top of my voice, but the wind completely covered my voice, and as soon as I opened my mouth, there were snowflakes drilling into it, which stimulated me to feel the urge to cough asthma.

I didn't dare to delay any longer, so I made a ruthless decision, took out the revolver I was carrying, and held it up and shot it into the sky.

Iron Donkey and Yin Yin both heard the gunshots, and at first they became very vigilant, but when they found out that I had shot them, they stopped the dog team, and then asked them to turn around, and rushed back to me.

I let out a long breath in my heart, and said in my heart that it was okay, Lao Tzu's life was saved.
