Chapter 4 Into the Mountain



Rehaman looked in the direction of the young man's finger, and could see only high clouds, distant mountains, and misty snow, and the rest, and nothing could be seen. He was stunned for a moment, and then prepared to persuade.

There are always a few adventurous tourists, most of them young people, who yearn for excitement and mystery, and the more severe the no-man's land, the more they can capture their curiosity.

Such tourists, Rehamam, not unprecedented, so he began to dissuade young people, and described in detail the situation in the depths of the snow-capped mountains.

That side of the area, among the locals, known as 'Gang Chale', along the Kunlun Mountain branch up, at the end of a total of two roads, this is a Kunlun Mountains through the east and west fold belt, to the east straight into the territory of Gansu, but because of the popularity is relatively strong, so it is the tourist route that most tourists will take.

And to the west, that is, the location chosen by the young man, is to stretch into the main vein of Kunlun Mountain, Kunlun is a big vein, there are countless legends about it, even in the depths of Kunlun, there are many deep fold belts, which are difficult to monitor even by satellites, what is inside, no one can say clearly, from the satellite map, you can see in the Qinghai, Sichuan, Tibet, Long area, you can see most of the folded white mountains, this is the ancient known as: stretching for three thousand miles, eight million in length and breadth of the Kunlun Mountains, If there are still places in China that human beings have never set foot in, then the depths of Kunlun can definitely be counted.

Occasionally, there will be tourists who insist on seeking excitement in the depths of the west, despite the objections of the tour guide, and as long as they are willing to add money, the tour guide will agree. In fact, at this time, the role of the tour guide is no longer to lead the way, because they are familiar with the first part of the road to the west, but when it is deep, no one knows, they say that it is a tour guide, but it is just to observe the terrain and weather and prevent danger.

Often, visitors who go west later will exit if they don't go too deep, because the environment inside is too bad.

The first is cold.

The general cold can't stop the enthusiasm of young people for exploration, and they will insist on moving forward, but if it is so cold that they have a sour fever, a plane crash, and a purple frostbite all over their bodies, it is estimated that no young person will lose his life in order to satisfy his desire for adventure.

The second is risk.

The general difficulty is an interest for tourists who go on an adventure, and many people enjoy the process of challenging the difficulty, but if you turn a corner and you are facing a cliff, I am afraid that not many people dare to move on.

Finally, there are natural disasters.

Even if there is really a group of young people who are not afraid of cold and danger go to the depths, most of them are difficult to come out again, the depths are the ice and snow that have accumulated for tens of millions of years, there are no creatures, no plants, if the barrenness of the desert is the same yellow as the sun, then the barrenness of Kunlun is the same white as the funeral.

Even the slightest sound can cause an avalanche, and the endless wind and snow will blow all day long, and tears will be frozen into ice slag.

Rehaman told the young man about the power, and said: "I have also taken people there, but the environment inside is too bad, after walking for a day, I can't stand it, and I have all withdrawn, you can think about it, if you want to go, I can also lead the way, but say okay, you have to add money." ”

The young man stared at the white expanse for a long time, and finally he asked, "Is there really no one in there?" There was a dazed tone in his voice, and it was very unpleasant to listen to Rehamman, as if he had answered no one, and the young man would have died in agony.

But Rehaman still told the truth, he grew up in the Han people, and he had been baptized by Han culture, so he said: "The blue bird is difficult to cross, I can assure you that there is no one in it." ”

After speaking, he looked at the young man's face with some caution, he didn't understand why he was acting like this at the time, but when he reacted later, he realized that it was a subconscious fear.

After listening to his answer, the young man did not show the sad feeling he imagined, he still had no expression, but his eyes were as black as thick ink, he did not say anything, but his determination to go west was obvious.

Reharman thought to himself: Although this young man does not talk much and seems very calm, he is still young and adventurous.

He didn't believe that the young man could walk for long, so he didn't say anything, and prepared to take the young man into the mountain the next day.

The reason why you need a guide to climb the snowy mountains is because there are mostly no roads on the snowy mountains.

Lu Xun once said: There is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, there will be.

And the only ones who break these two rules are the snow-capped mountains and the desert. They are so vast that when you look at them from a distance, you will feel that if I identify a direction, I will never get lost, but when you really get inside, you will know what it means to be blind, because by then you will not be able to discern the direction.

Wild sand and snowstorms change the landscape of deserts and snow-capped mountains every day, and even if someone wades out of a path today, it will disappear tomorrow, leaving nothing behind.

Except for the place where you first entered the snow-capped mountain, there are supply stations along the way to judge the path, and when you reach the mountainside, you basically can't see anything.

There were only two people on this trip, Rehaman and the young man, he once asked the young man's name, the young man didn't talk much, he didn't answer, he found himself bored, he could only touch his nose in a curt, but he noticed a very strange thing, that is, the index finger and middle finger of the young man's right hand are longer than ordinary people.

I hadn't made any contact between the young man and the person I was looking for, and I didn't realize it until Reharman said that.

The reason why I listened so attentively to the events of these two years ago may be that the young man I said in Rehaman's mouth was very similar to the person I was looking for, so I was unconsciously attracted, but what I didn't expect was that he was really the person I was looking for.

It's been two years.

I even felt that there was no hope in this life, and I was looking for it with a kind of best-effort attitude, but I didn't expect that this trip to Golmud would have such a big gain, I almost immediately grabbed Rehaman's hand and asked eagerly: "And then?" ”

Subconsciously, I cherish the news of the stuffy oil bottle, for fear that something will happen again, and I even have a feeling of being afraid of the sudden disappearance of Harman. In the past few years, I have deeply experienced this feeling of suddenly seeing hope and being suddenly destroyed, and even reached a state of paranoia.

When I do something, I will definitely do it all at once, because if I don't, I always feel that it will have another twist and turn.

The fat man said, "Innocent, this is a disease, it must be cured." ”

I asked him what to do, and he thought about it and said, "Why don't you ...... Try Liuwei Rehmannia Pills? I scolded directly: "Fuck your uncle, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand Chinese medicine." ”

Probably because my behavior was too abnormal, Rehaman was taken aback and said, "You, you are ......"

I reacted and realized that I was out of control, so I let go and said, "That young man is a friend of mine." ”

"What?" Rehaman was stunned for a moment and said, "Don't be kidding, I'm afraid this is too much of a coincidence." ”

Yes, it is indeed a coincidence, I think about it carefully, the existence of this kind of coincidence, it is not impossible, the reason why I came to Golmud at the first stop this time is entirely because I want to start from the sanatorium, and now it seems that the person I am looking for has not returned to the Queen Mother of the West, but he has entered the mountain.

But that was two years ago, and what happened after that?

I said, "It's no coincidence, my friend came here two years ago and hasn't been seen since." ”

Re Clam Man was all sorry, sighed, and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult for him to appear again." I said, "Why?" Subconsciously, I knew that Rehamman's next answer was definitely not good news.

Immediately afterward, Reharman began to tell me what had happened.

Knowing that the young man was my friend, his next story was more detailed, and even formed a 3D stereoscopic projection in my mind.

The next day, the two entered the snowy mountain.

Rehaman was carrying two days' worth of food, and originally tourists who climbed the snow-capped mountains only needed to prepare one day's food, but their directions were different, so he prepared more than usual just in case.

The young man also prepared the food himself, and when Rehaman saw it, he couldn't help frowning, it was full of compressed biscuits, and it was the kind of tightly packed, and there was no plastic box in it, which greatly increased the capacity, and there were many in one pack.

Reharman visually inspected that this pack of food would not be a problem to eat for ten days and half a month, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: Could it be that this person really plans to explore the depths of the snowy mountains? It is estimated that I will have to run back in less than a day, and these things are considered to be in vain.

Secondly, the young man did not bring water.

Water is sometimes more important than food, but in the snowy mountains, you can drink water by grabbing a handful of snow, but half of the people who climb the snowy mountains will bring their own water, after all, there is pure mineral water, who wants to eat the snow on the ground?

This practice of entering the mountains without water is generally to reduce the weight, yes, the young man's equipment bag is too complete, the whole backpack is bulging, and the back can almost cover most of the young man's figure.

Ordinary tourists don't do this kind of thing, and there is only one kind of person who does this kind of thing, that is, the professional scientific expedition team that enters the mountain, because they are equipped with a lot of equipment, and in order to save physical strength, they generally boil snow water.

But young people do it...... Rehaman felt that something was wrong in his heart, he felt that the young man behaved like a member of a scientific expedition who was about to risk his life to complete the mission, but he seemed to be separated from his companions, because he was alone, cold, silent, and seemed lonely.

Rehaman was a little dissatisfied with the young man bringing so much equipment, because he felt that once the young man couldn't carry it, he would definitely have to bear a part, but to his surprise, the young man's physical strength was much better than he imagined, and even when Rehaman was wheezing violently because of climbing the snowy mountain, the young man only blushed slightly and continued to follow behind him silently.

Sometimes, during a break, the young man would stop and look at him, but he would look in the opposite direction to their destination, he would look east, and sometimes they would rest for half an hour, and the young man would look for half an hour, as if he would never see the east again.
