Chapter 167 The first day of entering the mountain

After the brief mobilization meeting, we dare not delay any more. Zhao Wuji has prepared very well for equipment. In addition to our equipment, the young man also brought his Tibetan mastiff. According to his words, this Tibetan mastiff is very spiritual and may be of great use. In addition to being a little more fierce last night, this dog is really obedient at other times, especially with absolute loyalty to young people, so we didn't say that we would not let him take it.

According to the established route, we have to drive from Lhasa to a place called Yerengou, which is a small village at the foot of the snow mountain. We will park our cars there, and then change to the most primitive means of transportation like horses, and everything goes on in an orderly manner. On the way to Yerengou, I have been comforting the fat man and saying that I didn't blame him anything. Moreover, if Aoki really wants to go to the snow mountain to compete with us, it will not be able to stop him. Instead, the fat man has always been unable to let go of this knot in his heart. He thinks that the thing he did has lost my people, which makes him feel that he can't raise his head. I can't eliminate his self-blame, so I can only leave it to time to solve it.

After arriving at Yerengou, Zhao Wuji quickly started arguing with people on the phone. I asked him what was going on. He told me that the porters and horses he had asked his friend to help prepare were bought by others at a high price. The buyer was Qingmu who stepped into the mountain first. Here, this place was absolutely vast and sparsely populated. The distance between the village was very far. It took us half a day to find horses and people in the nearest village, and we didn't know how long it would take to get the horses here.

Zhao Wuji scolded his friend and said, "Aoki is not very old and is very ruthless in doing things. Without a horse or a porter, we can only walk into the snow mountain and see the distance on the kid's map. This is simply hell-level difficulty."

Even if you reach the foot, you must not leave. Living people cannot suffocate their urine. Zhao Wuji asked Lao Hei to take cash to the village to buy horses at a high price. We gathered together and held a brief meeting again. Yuan Tiandao asked the young man with a map and said, "If you come to estimate, how long will it take for us to go back and forth?"

"I can't estimate this thing, I can't afford this responsibility. According to the original plan, I think we should be able to stay in the snow mountain for half a month. The premise is that we first have horses to help us carry equipment and supplies. Finally, when the horses can't leave, we abandon certain things and go lightly, and we can also join the horse team smoothly. If all the equipment needs us to carry, we can go back and forth for up to seven days." The young man said that he is not only the owner of this map, but also our guide at this time. Although he is young, he said he likes to take risks. When he was in high school, he used to be a guide by the snow mountain to take those self-driving tours into the mountains to earn pocket money.

"I think we still listen to professionals. Snow Mountain is no better than other places. This is no joke." Zhao Wuji said.

Yuan Tiandao nodded and said, "Then wait for Lao Hei to come back to see if he can find the man and horse."

Lao Hei didn't bring us any good news. He only bought a thin horse. The horse was so thin that I felt pitiful. As for the guide, there were not many people who dared to enter the mountain in this season, and they were all gone by Aoki's heavy reward. There were still several old hunters left in the village. However, when we heard the place where we entered the mountain, they shook their heads. It was not that they knew that place, but they just felt that the distance was far.

Unexpectedly, I encountered such a problem before I even set off. Everyone in the team had a sad face, because from the current form, it seemed that our IQ, plan, etc. were completely plotted by Aoki. Aoki's plan was orderly and step by step, and we were more like a wild path to fight alone. I know that at this time, there must be someone who must stand up and give orders as the backbone of the team, and this person can only be Yuan Tiandao.

"We just happened to have a time difference with Aoki. At this time, we had the advantage when we went into the light. In short, we made the most complete plan now. After entering the mountain, we can't guarantee anything to you. I can only say that if you don't make trouble, within a certain range, I can definitely take you out safely." Yuan Tiandao said.

Lao Hei, who had never spoken since the meeting, nodded and said, "There is no problem here."

"Of course I'm fine." I also said.

At this time, we finally had the sense of cohesion of a small team. This was the first time I felt that it was so wonderful to trust each other. Life was so beautiful. What was the meaning of using it for intrigue all day? We chose the necessary equipment, put on professional mountaineering suits, and then took the skinny horse and the huge Tibetan mastiff. The entire team started to head towards the snow-capped mountains with two animals.

How can I say that the scenery on the top of the mountain is beautiful, but the process of going up the mountain is very tiring. If this snow mountain is a landscape painting, it can cleanse people's hearts, but the process of climbing the snow mountain is quite hard to describe. After walking for half a day, there is nothing else in front of me except white and exposed black stones. The physical strength spent in the past half day is also amazing. However, although I wasted my vitality, my physical quality was still quite good. I didn't feel very uncomfortable. The fat man himself was fat and he never liked to exercise. After two hours of departure, he rode the thin horse. The huge fat man rode on the thin horse. The picture was so unbearable. Fortunately, there was a road to follow on the first journey, so it was not very difficult to walk.

That night we chose to camp in a sheltered place. We ate something and drank some hot water. The fat man had already entered the sleeping bag and lay in the tent and fell asleep. The remaining five of us were not sleepy. The young man looked weak and had a very good physique. As the saying goes, you look at the scenery on the bridge, and the people who are watching the scenery look at you on the rooftop. From the eyes of this young man looking at me, I could feel that he was also surprised that my physical condition was good. We talked about tomorrow's itinerary, and then decided to let Yuan Tiandao and Zhao Wuji watch the night. In the second half of the night, they changed to Zhao Wuji and me. Everyone knows what the reason for such a pair of arrangements is, but they don't point it out.

I got into the sleeping bag and heard the thunderous snoring of the fat man beside me. I fell asleep unconsciously. In the middle of the night, the wind suddenly blew, and the young man woke up. We fixed our equipment again. When the wind in the snow-capped mountains blew on his face at night, it was like a knife cut. The clothes we wore were already very professional, but the air conditioner would still find any corner that could drill into your body. The young man said that this is why many people were unwilling to enter the mountain at this time. The cold air was about to come soon.

Yes, this kind of wind is quite small. Sometimes the snow-capped wind can blow for several days and nights, and it will not be frozen to death. The wind blows the snow and will cover up all the traces of people. The most experienced mountain people will sometimes lose their direction and even have the danger of avalanches. Any of these dangers will be fatal when encountering one of them. I have a personal experience. After entering the snow-capped mountains, I will feel clearly that people are very small in front of nature. Not to mention me, even Yuan Tiandaorugui may die here in such extreme and harsh weather.

In the second half of the night, Yuan Tiandao kept asking me to continue sleeping, but I was no longer sleepy, so I forced him into the tent and changed into Lao Hei. The wind blew about two hours before it stopped. Lao Hei and I sat by the bonfire, and the atmosphere was very silent. In order to pass the time, I took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Hei and said, "Brother?"

He shook his head at me and said he didn't want it.

I retracted my hand and lit it myself, and said without saying anything: "I have a friend named Zhao Qingshan. He has a similar personality to you and is very good at it. Hey, think about it, I haven't seen those old friends for many years, my third uncle and my grandfather. By the way, my buddy, where is your family? I think you are good at it. Are you learning from a famous teacher or self-taught?"

"Study by yourself." He said softly. I realized that he spoke with a very strong accent. This accent is definitely not from Luoyang or Henan.

"Where is my hometown in my brother?" I asked.

He looked at me and said, "Out of the country."

I thought to myself that this is not nonsense. I must know that you are from another place, but he doesn't want to say it. I can't continue to ask him which other place he is. This guy is really embarrassed, so I won't just talk.

The wind stopped again. The warmth of the bonfire was basking on my face. I was not sleepy, but I felt a little sleepy. Just when I was in a daze, a barking of dogs woke me up, and the thin horse suddenly became a little manic, and kept kicking the horse's hooves. I glanced at the Tibetan mastiff, which was still screaming loudly. I looked around and found nothing, so I said to it: "Big brother, stop calling, we have to bury it here, there is no one to collect the body."

As a result, the Tibetan mastiff looked back at me and still kept calling. I was about to speak, but Lao Hei made a gesture to me and pointed to the direction where the Tibetan mastiff was calling. When I looked, my scalp suddenly became numb because I saw a pair of red eyes looking at us from a distance.

"Is it a wolf??! Why are there red eyes?" I asked.

"I don't know." Lao Hei shook his head, he took out a dagger and pointed to the strong flashlight placed beside me. I immediately understood that he asked me to turn on the flashlight to see what it was. He was ready to rush out. I picked up the flashlight and said to him, "I know you are very fierce, but don't act rashly in this snowy mountain."

He nodded to me, and I held up the flashlight and suddenly turned it on in the direction of the eyes. The flashlight had a very strong penetration power, and it instantly shone brightly in front of me. I saw a person standing in front of me, which could only be said to be something like a human. After the flashlight shone on him, he turned around and ran towards the distance immediately.

But Lao Hei, who had promised me not to act rashly, had already chased him out at this time.

"Hey! Come back!" I shouted to him.
