After entering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the temperature suddenly turned cold. When they reached Golmud at the foot of Mount Kunlun, it became a world of ice and snow.
The archaeological team had the certificate issued by the Cultural Relics Bureau. Soon, they received the help of the local archaeological unit. They sent a few comrades to drive a big truck to send everyone to the Immortal Spring Military Station at the entrance of Kunlun Mountain.
"Teacher, Sister Yang, I feel a little.。I can't breathe."
Ever since she entered the Tibetan region, Ye Yixin had developed altitude sickness. Now that she had arrived at the higher altitude of Kunlun Mountain Pass, her body was already beginning to be unable to take it.
Xue Liyang touched her forehead and said,""Fortunately, you don't have a fever. Have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow, we'll go look for the big crack.”
Seeing that her arrangements were very appropriate, the others did not say anything and went into their own barracks to rest.
The next day, the weather was very sunny.
Hao Jianguo woke everyone up early in the morning. After breakfast and some butter tea, the archeological team set off with their equipment.
There were four warriors accompanying them. Gawa and Dachui were sharpshooters, and they were also the main guides and bodyguards.
The other two were technical soldiers who were responsible for helping Ye Yixin with the equipment.
Gawa was a local, so he was familiar with the entrance of Mount Kunlun. He had been leading the team all the way, but as they went deeper into the snow mountain, he looked at the snow-covered mountain in front of him and actually became worried.
"Aiya…But I'm so fucking tired…"
Fatty was heavy, and with every step he took, the snow would sink into his thighs. It took him a long time to move, and he was so tired that he stuck out his tongue."Baby, are you sure you should go this way? Don't drag us into the snow nest and make us unable to climb out!”
Gawa pointed in front of her and said,""No, no. Actually, I've never been to such a deep snowy mountain before. From the beginning, it was the old company commander who led the way.”
The old company commander referred to Hu Payi.
In terms of seniority, he had joined the army earlier than the commander of the military station. He had also been on a real battlefield, so the soldiers respected him very much.
"Come, give me your hand."
Chu Jian pulled Fatty out of the snow nest and said with a smile,""Brother Fatty, we're all walking the same path, but why do you feel like we've fallen into a hole in the ice when we're all stuck in the crook of our legs?”
"Hahahaha ~"
The crowd was amused.
Xue Liyang rubbed her face and smiled." Hehe, Chu Jian, I didn't notice before that your words are so sarcastic."”
"No, I'm just concerned about him."
Chu Jian glanced at Xue Liyang and said perfunctorily, but in his heart, he said that it depended on who he was with. To you, I just want to say that this bro wants to sleep with you.。
His feelings for Xue Liyang had not reached the level of liking or falling in love. At most, it was a man's instinctive impulse towards a beautiful woman. It was both physical and emotional.
Hu Payi, who was in front, heard the laughter and came back to his senses. He said to the crowd,"Do you want to rest for a while? We should be there soon. I remember this place.”
"No need to rest, we can hold on.”
Professor Chen was originally panting heavily. When he heard that they had found a place, he quickly called everyone to continue moving forward.
The group walked around the towering snowy peaks and finally saw a huge ice wall that was as smooth as a mirror!
Under the ice wall, there was a huge gap that was like a natural moat. It was as long as one or two kilometers!
"That's right, it's here, it's here!”
"That's great, Teacher. Looking at the sky, if everything goes smoothly, we can still make it back to the military depot today.”
Professor Chen and Hao Jianguo were overjoyed when they finally found their destination.
At that moment, everyone did not care about their physical fatigue. They carried the equipment and supported each other as they ran towards the big ice crack.
While the others were setting up their tents and fiddling with their equipment, Chu Jian, Hu Payi, and Xue Liyang went to the ice crack and found a few climbing ropes that had been frozen into popsicles!
"Bang!"
Chu Jian lit up a cold flame and threw it into the crack. It rolled and rolled for a long time before falling to the bottom.
After the few of them stuck their heads out to take a look, Xue Liyang said excitedly,"It should be my father's expedition team. It's leeward here and there's not much snow below.”
"I think it's fine. Our rope is just long enough.”
"The clues are here too. Maybe we can find the notebook as soon as we go down. That will save us a lot of trouble.”
Chu Jian and Hu Payi nodded in agreement.
After fixing the five climbing ropes, the first batch of people to go down to the bottom of the crack was Chu Jian, Hu Payi, Xue Liyang, Gawa, and Dachui. The second batch was Fatty, Sha Lipeng, Professor Chen, and Hao Jianguo. There were a total of nine people.
According to Xue Liyang's previous arrangement, Ye Yixin and the two technicians stayed on top. The first was to look after the equipment, and the second was to keep an eye on the climbing rope.
At the bottom of the ice crack, under their feet, and on both sides of the wall, there was a layer of frozen soil that would not melt for ten thousand years. Every step they took made them slip, and they could only support each other and move slowly.
Because of the irregular reflection of the ice wall, it was not completely dark here. Instead, visibility was maintained for five to six meters.
However, out of human instinct, everyone still chose to turn on their flashlights and use light to chase away the darkness.
"Professor, you guys rest for a while. Gawa and I will go take a look.”
Gawa and Dachui were both carrying Type 56 submachine guns. Their marksmanship was good, so they volunteered and went to the side of the ice crack to scout for everyone.
However, after a few steps, Gawa exclaimed,"Oh! Everyone, look, there's a dead person here!”
Xue Liyang was the most nervous. She quickly ran over with her hands on the wall. When she saw that it was not her father, she heaved a sigh of relief.
However, when she saw the corpse clearly, her expression still changed."I've seen this equipment before. He was part of my father's expedition team.”
After saying that, she reached out and fumbled around the corpse. She pulled out an M1911 pistol and two magazines.
Chu Jian and the others also came over to take a look. They saw that the dead man had a broken leg and was hiding behind a piece of frozen soil. He was facing the sky with a bloody hole in his temple. It seemed that he had committed suicide and was very unwilling to die.
"He accidentally fell down and was thrown off by his short legs. That's why he shot himself.”
Hu Payi frowned as he spoke.
If these were really members of Xue Liyang's father's exploration team, then her father would not be a good person to abandon his companions so casually!
[PS: I'll at least write three chapters today. If I can write it, I'll write four chapters to make up for the delay from the previous two days.]
