Uncle Ciwang's face looked particularly solemn in the firelight, and after listening to me tell what happened on the top of the mountain, he sat down quietly and sighed: "So, my people are all wrapped up in strange birds on the mountain. Damn, Lao Tzu Runway has been running for so many years, and in the place of Xianren Peak, every stone has been touched and walked, why did you encounter such an unfortunate thing today? ”

Tenzin wanted to speak several times, but finally held back, and later learned that his string of guys who were tied together really made the silk on the mountain hang up, but fortunately, the leader was clever and cut the rope around his waist in time and escaped death.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Deyang Ram threw away the firewood in his hand and took the lead in speaking: "We have all come here, the cableway is close in front of us, how can there be any reason not to go?" Since the monsters on the mountain are afraid of fire, everyone just put up torches. I'm not afraid of a single woman, are you all sitting stupidly? ”

"Whew!" There was a horse breeder who couldn't help but jump up, "Lao Tzu is not afraid of it, Lao Tzu wants to go up the mountain and avenge his brothers!" ”

After speaking, he took out the bow and crossbow at his waist and made a gesture to leave. Immediately several men followed him and got up, shouting that they would set fire to the forest, and force the things out to give the dead horses a back.

Seeing that the situation was about to be chaotic, he heard a loud roar: "In the end, I am in charge, or you are in charge!" ”

Uncle Ciwang stomped his feet, and everyone was shocked.

At this moment, his face was pale, his eyes were as big as copper bells, he took out the shotgun on his waist, looked around at everyone, and said, "We are horse gangs, not bandits." When I first joined the house, I signed a life and death certificate. This revenge will be avenged, but not now! ”

"Lausanne, you are going to avenge your brothers, I am the first to nod, but this matter cannot be done now! Everyone listened to me, immediately put away the things, check the goods, lead the mules and horses, let's cross the ropeway and go down the mountain, and when we come back, Lao Tzu will flatten this mountain for you to see. Uncle Ciwang spoke, and no one else could refute it at all.

Ren Yonghai was speechless and gave me a thumbs up, "Ciwang is a hero." ”

Uncle Ciwang waved his hand to him: "The business is our own success, how can we be angry with others because of an accident, our horse gang does not have such a person, you yourself have to be careful, we are going to get off the ropeway now." ”

I've been listening to everyone talking about the Xianrenfeng Cableway all the way, and now I'm about to see its true face of Lushan, and I can't help but be a little excited.

Lausanne, who had previously led the mutiny, listened to Uncle Ciwang's words, and walked to the edge of the clearing, where he raised his torch and tore down the branches on the mountain wall. I've long wondered why there is a corner full of branches and leaves on the mountain road where there is no grass. I didn't expect it to be a bunker made by a horse gang.

Uncle Ciwang explained that the purpose of this bunker was not to hide the location of the ropeway, and he pointed to the single-wire wire embedded in the cliff and said: "Look at this lock, if it is not well maintained, it will be dangerous in a few trips." Our people regularly go up the mountain to check and replace the ropeway fittings, and these branches are used to protect from the wind and rain. Don't look at this thing as simple, fly straight down, cross the mother-in-law creek at the bottom of the mountain, and arrive at Heiyun Village, which saves more than ten times the time it takes to climb the mountain. ”

I looked at the foot of the mountain, and sure enough, there was a river at the southern foothills, shining in the night.

Jampa excitedly introduced us to this mother river where he touched shrimp bare-bottomed when he was a child. According to him, the largest stream in the vicinity, the people in the village can't eat and drink without this mother-in-law stream.

And on the surface of the stream, as bright as a galaxy at the moment, is the unique shrimp fishing method in their village - putting river lanterns. Using the principle of river shrimp to the light, the shrimp fisherman inserts the cut wooden stakes everywhere on the surface of the stream, takes the wooden stake as the center, surrounds a circle of nylon nets, and finally hangs the bulb on a small motor, tied to the center of the wooden pile, and generally takes three or four hours to collect the net and catch a full net of shrimp.

"I used to use kerosene lamps, but recently I switched to motors, and one motor can connect more than a dozen light bulbs. It's convenient! Qiangba said and pulled the tightrope, preparing to be the first to get off the ropeway.

Uncle Ciwang suddenly pulled him back: "You are small, you can't be a pioneer!" Deyang Ram, give me the basket, I'll go first. ”

Uncle Ciwang walked with a weight to make sure that the steel wire could bear everyone's weight, after all, Qiangba was a young man, and he was only a hundred pounds, he could pass the ropeway, it didn't mean that other people could pass smoothly, not to mention that there were horses and goods in the team.

I didn't expect Ciwang to look rough, but his mind is very delicate, and even these details that are easy to be sloppy have been noticed, as the so-called "careful to make the ship of ten thousand years", even if someone will go up the mountain to overhaul on weekdays, it is difficult to ensure that it will not have accidents at critical moments.

Ciwang hooked an iron double-ended hook, wrapped the end of his hand in a cotton cloth, and then greased the end of the ropeway.

I asked Deyang Ram why he didn't install one more since he knew the danger of the one-way ropeway, and put it into two strands, so that it would be stronger.

She thought for a moment and replied, "Look at the steel wire hanging around the waist of the pot head, it will slide over later, and it will become a two-way way even on the other side?" ”

I was puzzled and asked, "In that case, wouldn't it be nice to make a two-way ropeway from the beginning, why do you want to do it every time?" ”

Deyang Ram bit his lip and didn't answer me.

I thought that she had her own unspeakable secrets, so I stopped asking, and thought to myself: "This caravan is a kind of transportation industry, they make money, and they take the road that ordinary people can't walk." If the ropeway is built in both directions, the risk on the road will be reduced, and others will be willing to take the risk. ”

If everyone in the world can fly across the Immortal Peak overnight, it is equivalent to cutting off a financial route for the horse gang. The one-way ropeway is not only dangerous, but also has no return, and the average business traveler will never dare to try it easily. Every time the caravan crosses the ropeway, they must first send a person to connect another steel wire at the end of the mountain, and when that person arrives on the opposite bank with the steel wire, as long as the lock is connected, a simple two-way ropeway can be formed. When the last person leaves, the second wire is removed. In this way, he cut off other people's roads and made his own fortune, which can be said to be not well-intentioned.

I knew that these horse runners had hard money to come by, but I was a little worried that the one-way ropeway, relying on downward gravity and gravity, would be almost impossible if they wanted to turn back from the other side. What if something happens?

Just as he was thinking, Ciwang was ready to go, and he drew a thumbs up towards Lausanne and the others. Then he shouted, grabbed the hook, kicked his feet on the edge of the cliff, like a tiger out of the cage, and flew out at once.

Looking at Ciwang's sturdy figure, everyone couldn't help but cheer. Deyang Ram put his hand on his forehead, looked around, turned around and said, "Go over to one more person and help the pot head pull the rope." The rest of the people, tie up the horses and goods, and when the two-way road is ready, we will go to the goods. ”

I asked her how horses and goods could be transported over the cliffs, for livestock on land are born afraid of heights. Horses are not tame animals either, and if they make a mistake in the middle of the road, won't they even have a chance to save them?

Lausanne glanced at me and said in a rough voice: "Our horses are no more squeamish than you Han people, don't talk about ropeways, and you are not afraid of going to the sea of fire." You can watch it later, if you dare to roar after my black cloud goes up, I will give you all the wages for this trip. ”

Although listening to his tone, it seemed like he was deliberately finding fault, but I knew that he was actually in a hurry to rush this trip, and asked the horse gang to damage his brother out of thin air, and Lausanne did not dare to call in person because of the majesty of the pot, so he had nothing to find someone to quarrel with in order to vent.

So although I have fire in my heart, I don't want to argue with him on the spot. At this time, Qiangba couldn't get used to it, so he stepped forward to dissuade him, but he was taught a lesson by Lausanne.

"Someone you've only known for a long time, you speak for him. These Han people are treacherous and deceitful, especially the old man who is causing trouble for everyone. Which side are you on, and have you received benefits from others? ”

Qiangba was so angry that his eyes straightened, I couldn't get used to seeing such an unreasonable person, so I lowered my face and blocked in front of him.

"You, what are you going to do?"

I raised my hand to slap the face, that Lausanne had already taken precautions, but the speed was not as fast as mine, out of thin air received a loud ear scraper, and was about to have a seizure, and I yelled again: "How old are you, you have an awkward quarrel with a child." How embarrassed are you to start infighting now, worthy of your dead brother, worthy of the horse pot head opposite! ”

This trick is called preemptive strike, and the trick is to overwhelm the enemy in momentum before they attack. Scared the other party out of anger, you naturally occupied the moral high ground and gave Lausanne a dismount.

The others were packing their bags and preparing to get off the ropeway, but when they heard that we were in a hot pot here, they all looked over this way.

Lausanne's face flushed, and he didn't know how to defend himself for a while. Deyang Ram hurriedly stepped forward to clear the siege, she stretched out her hands and slapped the shoulders of the two of us hard: "Okay, okay, when is it, two big men, don't be ashamed." Lausanne, you can go over first later, and help the pot head pick up the goods on the other side. Brother Lin, have you ever been on this kind of ropeway before, let me find someone to teach you? ”

I was embarrassed to embarrass a girl's house, so I followed her conversation and picked it up. When she turned her head to look, she saw Xu Yaxian's face was pale, knowing that this girl had never had the experience of crossing the cableway, and at this moment, looking at the black cliff under her feet, it was normal to be terrified.

"I'm fine, I'm afraid my friends ......"

Deyang Ram understood and said to Xu Yaxian: "Girl, this matter is actually the same as learning to swim, those who have never been in the water are afraid of burying their heads in the water, and they are naturally not afraid if they choke once." It's the same with ropeways, you can try it once, and it's not much more difficult than eating. ”

Xu Yaxian let out an "oh" and asked again: "What if I fall?" ”

I quipped, "That's not going to be a good idea." Or you leave a note and write it down, if you have anything to say, I'll go back and convey it to you. ”

Xu Ya was about to raise her leg and kick my ass on the spot, I laughed, saying that it was all a joke to help her relax.

By this time, Lausanne and Ciwang had reached the opposite shore one after another, and they hoisted green pennants on the opposite side. Deyang Ram also hoisted the same flag at this end. She turned back to the two remaining horse breeders and said, "The ropeway is already solid." Tie your horses and prepare to pass. ”

I saw one of the black fat duns nod, and drove a big-flung cargo horse to the edge of the cliff. The tall horse seemed to have long been accustomed to following the caravan over the mountains and mountains, taking the ropeway to the dangerous beach, and at this moment he did not panic in the face of the steep cliff valley, and stood there quietly, fiddling with a few of the horse breeders.

It didn't take long for the buckle of the belt wrapped around the horse to be attached to the suspension under the ropeway. I asked Deyang Ram if he wanted to find someone to go with the horse, and she blamed me for not seeing the world, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, they are all old horses, and they are used to it." Besides, if it's too heavy, the ropeway can't stand it, and it's easier to get out of danger. ”

As he spoke, he saw two horse breeders make a gesture to each other, shouted in unison, and pushed the horse out.

Although he was experienced, he couldn't get rid of the instinct of the creatures, and the white horse was pushed off the cliff by them, and his whole body sank, and his four hooves immediately galloped in the air, constantly neighing, and it seemed that he was frightened.

On the other side of the river at the foot of the mountain, Ciwang and Luosang were wearing thick gloves for carpentry and pulling the rope to their side.
