Chapter 253: Chilling
After the Tibetan horse bear and the monkey monkey, they were greatly injured by the monkey's vitality and took advantage of the chaos to start fleeing. The monkeys were in hot pursuit, and the three of us gradually withdrew from the battle group while the monkeys were fighting with the Tibetan horses and bears.
The big head saw those Tibetan horses and bears being chased and fled in a hurry and asked, "How did you come up with Qiangzi?" I looked at the big head and said, "Don't you look at the animal world?" He smiled crookedly, and then said seriously: "I've seen those monkeys, they are only monkeys in some tombs." I glanced at my crooked lips and said, "Are you sure?" Crooked mouth said: "It's not particularly certain, but ** is not far from ten." ”
I thought to myself: This is strange, is there a tomb in this place? There is no time to go to any graves now, we have to quickly find Liu Yidao, who was looking for the yak just now.
It's not all avalanche-prone areas, and even though the soybeans we've just seen a lot of movement are not small, there are some places where you can't make much noise. According to the Tibetans, it will wake up the silver snow-capped mountain gods, so we discussed it, no one should shoot, if there is a wild beast attack, we will use cold weapons to greet it. If it really doesn't work, I'm thinking about using a musket.
We approached the ice curtain along the forest, referencing the terrain as we went. As I walked, I thought about the clue that I had just crooked my mouth and said that there was a tomb here. If there is any tomb, no matter where the specific location is, there will be traces of artificial excavation, and it is impossible to make one on the top of Garenbu Peak, the place where the phoenix is reborn, once the traces are not left.
I walked in the forest for about half a day, but I couldn't see any trace of Liu Yidao and those yaks. The big head asked me if there were any legends here. I said that in Buddhist legend, Tantra believes that after death, people do not immediately escape into samsara, but that the soul stays in the body for a period of time and suffers from human karma. I heard a story from the Kagong Lama about the Garenpo Peak, the place where the phoenix was reborn, was once the residence of the Dapeng bird. Due to the disagreement between Dapeng and Phoenix, during the fierce fight, Dapeng killed the phoenix and threw it to this Garenbu Peak. The phoenix was finally reborn with the power of the Buddha and flew to Kunlun Mountain.
I said that I had not heard of this legend before, and that it was probably just a fabrication by the Gagong based on the legends of the locals, but it is in line with the characteristics of Tibetan Buddhist legends. Buddhism is the most inclusive religion, no matter what demons and monsters, as long as they are willing to put down the butcher's knife, they can become Buddhas on the ground, so in the Buddhist scriptures and legends, many demon gods from all over the world are absorbed as protectors.
I was just about to say that the big head saw the yaks and shouted, "Look, look at the strong son." I looked with a crooked mouth along the fingers of the big head, and sure enough, the yak stood quietly in the snow beyond the ice curtain.
A few of us hurried to where we just went. When he walked to the big ice curtain, he crooked his mouth and asked the two of us to stop moving forward first, pointed to the ice curtain and said, "Let's look at the terrain first, and then go in the past." What if the ice sheet collapses? "The two of us looked at it, and there was the main peak of a snow-capped mountain above the ice curtain. I found a crack under the ice curtain, which was so huge that I had to climb and slide down the ice curtain if I wanted to, but the terrain here was so dangerous that I would probably fall to my death if I fell down. Moreover, this ice curtain is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, which are extremely prone to avalanches. There are many snow-capped mountains around, one in the east and one in the west, and the ones that are connected together have been submerged by the heavy snow just now. But it's not easy to tell. If there is an avalanche, as far as I can see, there is no way for us to escape. So I reminded them to be extra careful when they went in. ”
This is the end of the forest. We watched from under this undulating curtain of ice. The big head said: "My mouth, now the time has come for the organization to test you, the three of us are the best, let's go up and have a look." I took one look at the big head and said to myself, this guy doesn't have a good idea. I was about to stop the crooked mouth, but the crooked mouth was slowly walking towards the ice curtain.
When I was about to catch up again, the big head spoke: "Qiangzi, you slow down, you can't help in the past." He's got to take care of you. Although it was absolutely wrong when I heard it, there was no other way. Can only wait here. After the crooked mouth went up, he came down. Said that this ice curtain is full of ice crevasses, ice cirques, and ice leaks. I didn't see Liu Yidao at all, and if I really fell into those ice buckets, it would be troublesome. We can't go up now, and there's no place on the ice that we don't have a foothold. It's not easy to find him. And at the bottom of the Great Snow Mountain, I didn't dare to call her name.
The three of us discussed not to sit still. Then the people spread out in formation and conducted the investigation in the same way that the criminal investigation team checked the evidence. And then kept whispering. After searching for half an hour, I found a broken ice cirque. I used a wolf's eye flashlight to shine inside, this ice bucket is seven or eight meters deep, Liu Yidao is stuck in it, unconscious, it seems that it is not light. We whispered her name and nothing happened.
We don't know why he fell into the ice cirque of this Ice Curtain Mountain. I was in a hurry because there was no way to pull him out. But crooked mouth to persuade me don't worry, this place is not too deep, and Liu Yidao's skills are so good, maybe he can climb up. After a while, he crooked his mouth and said that he would go down and pull Liu Yidao up, and there would be no major incident.
When the big head heard this, he hurriedly went to the yak to pack up the rope, and let the crooked mouth prepare to go down, and I threw a cold smoke fire inside so that I could see the shape clearly. lest you crooked your mouth step on something that should not be stepped on and get into trouble. Unexpectedly, the cold fireworks that fell illuminated the four walls of the ice cave, and I looked at it and let out an "ah" sound. The big head also saw it and said, "Isn't that your grandfather's mark?" Did your grandfather ever come here? Is this the tomb that crooked mouth says? I shook my head, and I couldn't tell the difference now. I watched as my grandfather left the kind of mark that was carved into the entire ice wall. And the handwriting is very hurried and scribbled. And there might be something in the ice wall, otherwise Grandpa wouldn't have come.
Crooked Mouth quickly put on his equipment and climbed on the ice curtain, so everyone hurriedly lowered the rope. Crooked mouth, picked up the ice chisel and dragged the rope into the ice cave, and then I followed. The two of us didn't care about what was on the ice wall, but hurriedly checked Liu Yidao's injuries first, there were no obvious external injuries on the body, and the person was just unconscious. It must have been too long to run, and the plateau was relatively oxygen-deprived, and then when I got to this ice curtain, I slipped down and then fainted.
I took out the fire sickle and wiped it on the nose of Liu Yidao, and Liu Yidao immediately sneezed and came to his senses. I asked him: "Senior Liu, are you injured," Liu Yidao shook his head, it turned out that he was really tired from running just now, and he had some symptoms of altitude sickness. When that feeling of dizziness appears, I add my own shoelaces to be loose. Then he rolled over and fell into the cirque. At that time, I was fighting the Tibetan horse bear with Crooked Mouth and Big Head. Liu Yidao said: "Look at what is on this ice wall? I didn't even come here to see it in a hurry. "It's dark here, so I turned on a flashlight to light it up, and tried to look at the lumps on the ice wall.
I saw that Liu Yidao was not injured, so I put my mind at ease, and held a wolf-eye flashlight to look at the patterns in the surrounding ice, not like it was done by a person. After the last time I was in Yunnan, I was very interested, these paintings on the walls or other things are the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancestors of an ancient nation.
The big head sent the hook down from above. And the crooked mouth quickly hooked Liu Yidao and hung it quickly, ready to let the big head pull him up on it, and when the two of them lowered their heads to prepare, they suddenly exclaimed in surprise and jumped back respectively.
I didn't actually see anything just now, it was the crooked mouth that scared me. I hurriedly looked down and shone my flashlight on the flat, smooth ice underground. I saw something like a coffin inside. That's what it is, and if we look closely, I can still see the patterns on those sarcophagus. But all I could see was something curling up and shrinking into a ball, and the style of the picture was a little similar to the murals around Liao Poyu's body in Yunnan.
Crooked mouth said: "This place is really a bit evil."
