Chapter 585: Ice Sculpture Stops the Wind
Since you have come to Changbai Mountain, the most well-known and magical Tianchi in Changbai Mountain is naturally not to be missed. The only regret is that even in winter, Changbai Mountain Tianchi is still open to the public, even if there are not as many tourists as in summer.
In fact, for many tourists who want to come to Tianchi in Changbai Mountain, the best time to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Tianchi is August. At that time, the weather was crisp, and there was no need to worry about severe and extreme weather such as a blizzard.
Before coming, Xu Haibao had also read a lot of information about the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain, and knew that the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain was actually a lake formed by the accumulation of water in the crater. Beneath the surface of the lake, there is also a temporarily dormant volcano.
Perhaps, as many people say, under the beautiful scenery, there is often a deadly crisis that no one knows. Experts who study volcanoes also know that once the volcano is awakened, the impact will be incalculable.
Fortunately, in the short term, volcanoes, which have entered a dormant period, should not erupt. If the volcano begins to erupt, it is believed that the Tianchi Lake, which is popular with tourists at the moment, will also be instantly transformed into a place where the hot lava gathers.
Before entering the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain, Xu Haibao specially made a phone call to Wang Yuzhu and asked him to contact the scenic spot. Pick a time when tourists are relatively scarce, and implement a temporary closure of Tianchi.
The reason for this is that Xu Haibao intends to dive into the lake to search carefully. According to the information provided by the Special Chamber, there have indeed been traces of unknown creatures in the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain. Unfortunately, several searches were fruitless.
According to many experts, it may be possible to know the mystery of the bottom of the lake unless the water in Tianchi is drained clean. This kind of thinking is undoubtedly unlikely. The situation at the bottom of Tianchi Lake is also more dangerous than that of ordinary lakes.
The reason is simple: the situation under the bottom of Tianchi Lake is more complicated than that of other inland lakes. At the bottom of Tianchi Lake, which is formed by the water in the crater, no one dares to mess around. Wake up the sleeping volcano below, and that's it!
Knowing that Xu Haibao was going to go down to the lake to find out, the above naturally would not refuse. Even if the Changbaishan volcano is dormant, it is still very difficult for them to really detect what is going on below.
Although modern technology can effectively predict and monitor the occurrence of volcanoes and earthquakes. But the problem is that whether it is a volcanic eruption or an earthquake, more often than not, human beings can only cope with it, and it is difficult to effectively control it.
Compared to before the eruption, there are more or less omen, which can leave a certain amount of time for humans to react. In the case of earthquake monitoring, it is often detected after an earthquake has occurred. This kind of monitoring provides more level parameters for follow-up rescue.
After receiving a call from Xu Haibao, Wang Yuzhu also said in a timely manner: "Head, can we come up?"
"Okay! Take care of things, and you guys will drive up. During the time I went to the lake, you happened to be with my wife and son. What exactly is going on underwater, I don't dare to say now. If there is an accident, you can also respond to it. ”
"Head, do you want to go to the bottom of the lake! I heard that there is a dormant volcano under the lake!"
"Don't worry, I want to live a few more years, and I won't mess around. Call me when it's done, and I'll be waiting for you there!"
"Yes! I'll get in touch now!"
As the person in charge of security who traveled with Xu Haibao this time, Wang Yuzhu also became Xu Haibao's liaison. If there is any need, he can directly contact the local special affairs office, and then the special affairs office will contact the relevant units to properly handle Xu Haibao's request.
The temporary closure of the scenic spot for one to two days is naturally not a big deal in this season. In fact, in winter, the Tianchi Scenic Area is often closed. In winter, the cold wind blows in the Tianchi, so it is better to stay at the bottom of the mountain!
Anyway, there are ski resorts and resorts at the bottom of the mountain. When you get to Tianchi, there are not many facilities for entertainment. As for wanting to go around the Tianchi, it is even more impossible. In winter, the Tianchi can only be seen from a distance and cannot be close to the edge of the pool.
In fact, even when you go up the mountain in summer, you rarely get close to the pool. Most of the time, tourists can only take a closer look at the Tianchi by the guardrail set up in the scenic area. If you want to go down to the lake for a dip or dive, that's not possible.
When Xu Haibao's family of three appeared in Tianchi, Wang Yuzhu and others had also arrived. Standing on the edge of Tianchi, Xu Haibao can also feel the wind on the top of Tianchi Mountain in winter, which is really much more violent than he imagined.
Looking at his son in his arms, Xu Haibao looked around and said, "Xiaohan, why don't you take Doudou and go to the outpost over there to rest." It's too windy outside, and as soon as the little guy lets go, it's estimated that he will be blown away. ”
"Okay, how long will it take you?"
"I don't know yet, but I shouldn't stay long, touch the bottom of the lake, and I'll come up if there's no situation." When I come up, we can leave for home. ”
This time he came out with Xu Haibao, and Liu Xiaohan and his son didn't feel any hardship. Although they live in the wilderness, there is no shortage of food and clothing. Even this time when he entered the mountain, Liu Xiaohan personally dug up a century-old wild ginseng.
This kind of experience similar to wild exploration and treasure hunting still makes Liu Xiaohan feel very excited. But she also knows that her son is still young, and it is impossible to follow them and his wife in the wild all the time, so she must return to normal life!
After negotiating with Liu Xiaohan, Xu Haibao looked at the local special affairs person in charge who went up the mountain with Wang Yuzhu, and said very directly: "I took a look before, there should be one of our border posts on the mountain, right?"
"Yes, advisor! There are soldiers on duty at the outpost all year round!"
"Let's go over and disturb us, it shouldn't be a problem, right? This time we went to the lake, and I don't know when I will be able to come back for the time being. Before I come back, can I let my wife and son stay at the outpost?"
"Of course no problem!"
According to me, the other side of Tianchi should be regarded as the territory of another country, right?"
"Yes, advisor!"
In the face of Xu Haibao's inquiry, the person in charge of the special affairs who came in person also answered all questions. As for crossing the border, it doesn't seem to be a big deal in the eyes of the person in charge. In this kind of weather, who would have thought that someone would dare to go down to Tianchi?
In fact, there has always been an observatory near Tianchi, which is responsible for studying the underwater situation of Tianchi. Of course, it is more about wanting to confirm what kind of animal the so-called monster in Tianchi is.
This time Xu Haibao came to Tianchi in person, maybe this secret can be solved. In the opinion of the person in charge of the special affairs, the monster hidden in Tianchi should not escape Xu Haibao's discovery. As for what kind of animal it is, many people are curious!
When Xu Haibao and his entourage arrived at the outpost, they felt that the wind in front of the outpost was much more violent than below. Looking at these sentries who were blown to the point that they couldn't stand still, Xu Haibao also knew that the sentries stationed here were indeed very hard.
Although I didn't know who Xu Haibao and his entourage were, the sentry commander of the outpost quickly got the approval of his superiors after asking for instructions by phone. And the superior explained that he must entertain the visiting Xu Haibao and his party.
To put it simply, for many military generals, it is not easy to meet a legendary figure like Xu Haibao. It is very rare for Xu Haibao to appear in Tianchi this time.
If it weren't for the person in charge of the special affairs, too many people were not allowed to come and disturb it, and it was estimated that after a while, the leaders of the nearby stations would rush over. This cautious explanation from the superiors also made the sentry chief realize that the identity of Xu Haibao and his party was unusual.
Fortunately, Xu Haibao didn't have much to offer, and looked at the sentry commander and said, "Platoon Commander Wang, don't be too nervous! Actually, I am also a retired non-commissioned officer of the army, but I have been retired for a few years, and I have been serving in the navy."
It's rare to come to Tianchi this time, and I also want to experience the life of the military camp again, so I take the liberty to bother. I'll keep some of the ingredients later, and you don't have to worry too much, my bodyguards will take care of it. During this time, I will provide your food.
In the forest, the conditions of the outpost are limited, and if you have any problems, you can leave first. If it's okay, you can stay here for two days. But you must remember not to disturb the normal duties of the officers and men at the outpost!"
"Yes, please rest assured that we will cooperate with the work!"
From the tone in which the person in charge of the special affairs spoke to Xu Haibao, it was not difficult for the second lieutenant to hear that Xu Haibao's identity was not simple. Thinking of the previous explanation from his superiors that he wanted to implement the highest level of secrecy discipline, the second lieutenant sentry commander was also beating wildly in his heart.
Xu Haibao, who arrived at the outpost, did not immediately enter the lake to explore. He knew that when the little one was awake, he would still look unhappy if he saw him leave. Most importantly, the environment of the outpost has not yet fully adapted to the little ones.
In view of this situation, Xu Haibao still planned to wait until night before going down to Tianchi. Anyway, day and night, it has no effect on Xu Haibao's exploration of Tianchi. It is not a bad idea to accompany my son to familiarize himself with the outpost.
When he heard his son say that the outpost was too windy and he couldn't go out to play, Xu Haibao thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, Dad will do a magic trick for you, and you can stand on the railing of the outpost and watch the scenery." When the time comes, let your mother take a picture of you, okay?"
"Yes! Daddy's magic is the best!"
Captain Wang, who was standing next to him and was in charge of entertaining, heard the conversation between father and son, and he seemed a little crying and laughing. How sharp the winter wind on the top of Tianchi is, they know it, how can they say stop it?
It's just that it didn't take long for Xu Haibao to walk out of the house with his son in his arms, looked at the terrain next to the outpost, and quickly said with a smile: "Doudou, Dad will accompany you to build another snowman and let the snowman block those strong winds, okay?"
"Good!"
The little guy who treats everything as a game soon accompanies Xu Haibao there to play the game of building a snowman. Wang Yuzhu and others, who accompanied them to the outpost, also began to help build snowmen. It didn't take long for a huge snowman to pile up next to the outpost.
Just when the sentry commander and the outpost soldiers thought these people were boring. Xu Haibao condensed the snow into ice, and using the ice blade in his hand, he quickly carved the snowman into an ice sculpture in the shape of a sentry. This ice carving technique is breathtaking.
But what was really shocking was that after the sentry statue was formed, the people standing behind the ice sculpture clearly felt that the violent wind that had been blowing before had really stopped. Feeling this change, the shock in everyone's hearts can be imagined!
