[69 Book Bar-www.] Chapter 142 A different big smoke bubble
The troops replenished a large number of plateau horses and rode away, no longer driving. Sitting in the car was too uncomfortable. It was so uncomfortable that my intestines were about to come out. Everyone exhaled happily. This
It's happiness.
While Xiaolong ordered the troops to appease the Tibetan fellow villagers and restore their homes, he studied the map. This map was used to capture the horse bandits. It was too simple and had no reference value at all. Xiaolong had no choice but to summon all the Tibetan warriors and ask for advice on how to get to Qamdo.
As a result, there are different opinions. The road on the left has to cross the Hengduan Mountains twice, but the road is short and takes less time. It is not easy to walk. The road on the right only crosses the Hengduan Mountains once, but the road is relatively easy to walk, but
Yes, the distance will also be increased by one-third.
Xiaolong decided to take the road on the right, which was better than crossing the Snowy Mountains twice. Crossing the Snowy Mountains was not a fun thing. There were too many uncertainties. The troops could not have suffered attrition before they had even seen Tibet.
events occurred.
The troops left Mangkang County in the north and walked along the tributaries of the Jinsha River for more than ten miles at the bottom of the valley before entering the mountain road. After walking for only a few miles, the troops quickly reached the snow line. Xiaolong ordered the troops to take a short rest.
After a while, eat some rations, but don't eat too much, otherwise your belly will become bloated when you reach the top. The horses are treated the same way.
The troops all put on their brown goggles and led their horses. The scenery of the snow-capped mountains on the plateau was unique. There were no trees, only boundless snow-capped mountains covered with snow all year round. The mountains were steep and jagged with strange rocks.
"Commander, can we ski?" A soldier couldn't help but asked when he saw the snow on the mountain road was thick.
"Do you want to die? Do you know the condition of the road? Don't fail to stop and fall into the valley and be crushed to pieces."
The frightened soldier shrank his neck and held the horse obediently. The other silent soldiers also laughed. The mountain went higher and higher. Fortunately, he had brown goggles, but the dazzling and strong snow light still made some soldiers feel uncomfortable.
This place is completely different from the heavy snow in Northeast China. I have never seen such strong snow light reflection there.
Suddenly there was a strong wind without warning, and big smoke bubbles filled the sky. How to prevent big smoke bubbles in the snowy mountains? For this, most of the soldiers in the army came from the northeast and were quite experienced. They immediately surrounded them.
He took off his clothes, put the horse's reins into his hands and held on tightly, and moved forward inch by inch against the strong wind. The deep snow up to his knees helped the soldiers a little, and the people felt as if they had planted themselves in the snow and had a foundation, and the horses did not slip.
signs.
After walking for more than a mile, the weather suddenly turned sunny, the sun was shining brightly, and the snow was shining brightly. Even with brown goggles, it was difficult to resist the stimulation of the strong light. Everyone had to wear their dog-skin hats turned over, so that their eyes could only see 5
About meters away.
"Report to the commander that several captured horses fell into the valley."
"Is there no problem with the personnel in the army?"
"There are no problems yet. There are no attrition."
"That's good. I want to tell you that you must follow the footsteps and don't go on your own. Also, I would rather lose horses and supplies than lose soldiers."
As the troops walked down, Xiaolong used a telescope to look at the surrounding mountains. The unique features of the Tibetan Plateau. Suddenly, on a cliff opposite where the troops were walking at the left and right of the snow line, there was a relatively gentle slope. The slope was not too big.
It is covered with green plants, which is a rare sight above the snow line of the Snowy Mountains. It surprises everyone.
"What is this? It's so beautiful - so beautiful. There are also green plants here? What is that? Tashi, take a look."
Tashi looked at it for a while and said,
"Commander, that's a treasure. That's snow lotus. There's also snow ganoderma and ice toad. Those are all precious medicinal materials, elixir grade. Oh - it's so big, it must be thousands of years old.
.A thousand-year-old elixir is so precious. If it weren’t for such a dangerous terrain, it would have been taken advantage of by others long ago.”
"What's it for?"
"Commander, Snow Lotus is produced near the snow line of 3000-6000 meters on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxification, reducing swelling and pain, eliminating tumors and removing blood stasis. Ice toad: a precious Chinese medicinal material. Contains a variety of biological ingredients, which can detoxify, reduce swelling,
Analgesic, cardiotonic and diuretic, anti-cancer, anti-radiation. Ganoderma lucidum: clears heat and detoxifies, promotes choleretic and reduces jaundice, promotes laxative and urination, and is often used for ascites and abdominal distention due to tumors.”
"Such a good thing? You can't miss this-------Chen Hu, you lead the troops and continue to move forward. You don't have to go too fast. Pay attention to safety. And let me use your dagger."
"Commander, it's too dangerous there. You can't go up there. Otherwise, it would have been picked up long ago. How could it be left here today? Such a big piece."
"Don't worry about it. Just concentrate on leading your way. I'll be back in a while. If there is a problem with the army, I will ask it for you."
After finishing speaking, he stepped on the snow and jumped lightly to the opposite stone cliff. Then he climbed up with a dagger in his hand, as fast as a gecko.
Due to the narrow terrain in the valley, strong winds were blowing, causing the dragon's body to flutter from side to side like a leaf hanging on the stone wall.
Climbing up the slope of the stone wall, Xiaolong couldn't help but take a big breath and regain his strength. Looking closer, he discovered that the snow lotuses were as big as ocean bowls. It was just like what Tashi said, and they might not be more than a thousand years old.
Ice toads feed on insects on snow lotus leaves.
As if Xiaolong had found a treasure, he took all the old ones and warmed them up in his ring. The younger ones stayed. But he knew that he could not collect them all and had to keep the seeds. The three treasures of traditional Chinese medicine were received by Xiaolong.
The joy in my heart is self-evident.
In this way, the troops spent two days climbing over the snow-capped mountains with an altitude of more than 5,600 meters and descending below the snow line on the western slope of the Hengduan Mountains. The troops immediately set up camp. At this time, Xiaolong also returned to the team.
At night on the Eastern Tibetan Plateau, the sky looks so empty and quiet. The stars are shining brightly. They are like bright gems embedded in the night sky. They are so dazzling.
"It's a rare and different kind of beautiful scenery. It feels so close to the sky here. It's as if you can reach it at your fingertips. But underneath the beautiful scenery, the lives of the Tibetans are miserable in a different way." Xiaolong murmured helplessly.
fell asleep.
The next day, the troops arrived at a plateau village more than 3,000 meters above sea level.
In Rumei Village, there is a road that runs through the village. There are only a dozen or so households. On the side of the road close to the mountain wall, there are Tibetan houses, which are all built of stone.
