Volume 1 The Land of Yama Chapter 13 The Hidden Affair of Decades Ago
But when we told Cai Rang Dorjee about this idea, he shook his head like a rattle, "No, no!" We can't go to the north slope of Gangzewu! "The Gangzewu knot mentioned here is the name of the Tibetan people of Unity Peak." This place is different from your plain, it starts to get cold in September, and now it is November, and the climate is very bad at this time, especially on the north side, and going there at this time is simply looking for death! Speaking of this, there was a trace of awe and fear in Dorjee's eyes, "And it is a holy place, a place where the divine dragon lives, and if it disturbs the divine dragon's rest, the divine dragon will be to blame." ”
When Lantern Xiao heard it, he didn't think so, "I said that I let my brother, now is a new society, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, animals are not allowed to become sperm, you are all legends, it is superstition, don't believe that!" ”
"Nope! No! Only then did Dorjee look very flustered, "Don't talk nonsense!" I tell you! There was once a yak that inadvertently broke into the holy place, and when it was found again, only half of its body remained, and the other half seemed to have been bitten off by something! Bloody! I saw it with my own eyes, you say! What can bite off half of a yak's body in one bite! ”
Looking at the frightened look that made Dorjee definitely not look like he was pretending. We couldn't help but feel a little nervous in our hearts, and we looked at each other, and we both saw a trace of horror in each other's eyes.
"Then none of you go inside to see?" I asked before Dorjee did.
Hearing this, Dorjee lowered his head, took out a cigarette from his mouth tremblingly, put it in his mouth and just lit it, suddenly looked up and looked around, then remembered that he was already in the forest area, and hurriedly put the cigarette back. It can be seen that Dorjee's heart fluctuates greatly, and he is trying his best to control his emotions. After a long time, Dorjee said: "It is true that someone organized everyone to go, and my brother also participated, but almost all of them never came back, only my brother had half his life left and escaped back!" ”
"Your brother can return safely, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune." I comforted. "Then your brother didn't tell you what's in it?"
"He'll never be able to tell!" Only then did Dorjee close his eyes in pain, "My brother is already crazy!" ”
"This..."Hearing Cai Dorjee's statement, we also hesitated.
Lose your marbles? I don't know why, but I remembered the incident that my second uncle told me. I remembered that the person named Ma Jun was also crazy, also in the northwest, and also in the mountains, is there any connection between this?
After being silent for a while, I said: "That's it, otherwise let's go to the place where the avalanche happened back then, maybe Confucius had a comrade-in-arms who died there, this time Confucius went out alone, just to go there to miss his comrades-in-arms, in this case, we don't have to go to Unity Peak, what do you think?" ”
Shi Tao nodded, "What Zhuo Ran said makes sense, let's go to the place of the accident first, as for whether we need to go to Unity Peak, we will talk about it then, fortunately, that place is not far from Unity Peak." ”
Only then did Dorjee still be very embarrassed by our proposal, "This...... The location of the avalanche you are talking about back then is still unusual, but ...... Well, I'll take you there! But listen to me. ”
So we got in the car and continued on our way, and the rest of the road was very hard, the car was unusually bumpy, and many times we had to get out of the cart to push it. Sitting in the second row, me, Lantern Xiao and Kong Xue all sat in their seats panting, trying to suppress the feeling of vomiting.
After about half a day, the car stopped. Only then did Dorjee signal us to get out of the car.
We each stabilized and jumped out of the car. As soon as I got out of the car, the cool and refreshing air instantly hit my face, and I felt a lot more comfortable at once. At this time, the altitude was over 4,000 meters, but we didn't feel any discomfort.
The rolling hills in front of him rose and fell one after another, and only then did Dorjee point to a mountain peak in the distance and say, "That is where you are going." Then he pointed to the side of the mountain, where there was another peak that jutted into the sky, looking sacred and solemn, "There is Gangzewujie, which is what you call the Unity Peak." ”
Lantern Xiao looked in that direction, "I'll go!" No matter how you go, it doesn't even look like there's a road! ”
Only then did Dorjee shake his head, "Well, there are still some roads, and even the truck went up back then!" ”
Lantern Festival was surprised, and so were we. "The trucks are all on it? Exaggerated, right? ”
Only then did Dorjee say very seriously: "It's true, it's an emergency route driven by the army, but many years have passed, the road is deserted, and the car will definitely not be able to pass, but people, it's still okay." ”
"But why did the troops open a road to that place?" We're curious.
Only then did Dorjee be stunned, and his face became a little ugly. After a moment of silence, he looked deeper into the mountains, "Many years ago, there was an avalanche there, and I heard that there were still dead people. Soon after that, a large number of troops drove into the mountains and stationed there, and many trucks came in and out every day to transport people and supplies. ”
When we heard the avalanche, we were silent, but we knew in our hearts that it was consistent with what we had learned. But we want to know more.
So I asked, "Actually, it's nothing, there are people missing, and it's normal to carry out search and rescue work." ”
"No, it's not like that, if it's a search for missing people, it should be looking for them along the direction of the avalanche down the mountain, but on the contrary, the direction of the search is along the snow line. Obviously, it wasn't for search and rescue, there must have been other purposes. And this process lasted almost ten years, how could the search and rescue be possible for ten years. And," said this, Dorjee's voice trembled, "and, in the end, I saw that thing!" ”
"That thing? What is it? We asked hurriedly.
"It's a scary thing!" Only then did Duoji pause, and then said: "When I was a teenager, my grandfather often went into the mountains to hunt, and he would also collect some medicinal herbs, and I would often follow him, and sometimes I would live in the mountains at night. Once, my grandfather and I went into the mountain as usual, and at night we were just about to go to sleep, when we suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance, and the direction was near the station of the soldiers, my grandfather and I hurriedly ran to the higher place of the mountain to look in that direction, only to see that the camp was brightly lit, and the shouts of those soldiers could be faintly heard, and countless searchlights shone towards the top of the mountain, and we followed the light to look, but we found that there was a huge black shadow on the top of the snowy mountain, The shadow was so big that even so many searchlights couldn't illuminate it as it was. Suddenly, the black shadow leaped up, followed by a dense burst of gunfire. "Although many years have passed, this time only made Dorjee recall, and there was still fear in his eyes." I was so frightened that I couldn't help but look at my grandfather, who was frowning and looking at the mountain with a frightened face, and suddenly he knelt down, kowtowed in the direction of the mountain, and then took my hand and ran down the mountain overnight. The next day, there was a meeting in the village, and the village cadres told everyone that the explosion last night was the force that blew up the snow and lifted the danger of another avalanche, so that everyone did not need to panic, but I knew in my heart that this was not the case. ”
Hearing Cairang Dorjee's words, we knew that there was something else behind the matter. I can guess that a few decades ago, something terrible happened here, and the cause was probably the avalanche, and Kong Yehe may have been a participant in it, maybe he was ordered to do so, maybe he broke in by accident.
Only then did Dorjee look deeply at the endless mountains of the Qilian Mountains, as well as the majestic snow-capped peaks, standing in the pure blue sky, looking so mysterious, and after a while, he said softly: "There is a huge no-man's land here, you can never imagine what is there, it is not a place where people can set foot at all." ”
