Chapter 102 Death Red Line
In order to lead the way for them, Lagon left his cattle and sheep in a place with grass under the snow line. When Song Jiang saw this, he asked worriedly, "Leave them here so they won't get lost or be caught." Do other wild animals eat it?"

But Lagon just smiled and said, "Don't worry...they are protected by the mountain god."

Seeing that Lagong himself was so relieved, Song Jiang naturally didn't say anything more, but the road under his feet became more and more difficult to walk, which had seriously affected the speed of his progress. It was almost impossible to reach the 5123 inspection station before dark. It was impossible, and in the end Lagon had to decide to camp on the spot and continue on his way after dawn tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the group set up the tent, there was a heavy fog on the mountain, and the surrounding visibility dropped below 10 meters in an instant. In order to prevent people from getting lost, Lagon reminded everyone not to leave the camp easily. Immediately return to the tent to rest.

At this time, Song Jiang took a bite of the luncheon meat that had just been grilled, and then glanced at the thick fog around him, and couldn't help complaining in his heart, if it wasn't for his brain disease, who would come to this kind of ghost? place? !

Meng Zhe seemed to have seen through his thoughts, so he kicked him and said, "Give me a piece too..."

Some outsiders are not easy to get angry in Songjiang, so they can only grit their teeth and say, "Okay, sir!"

Perhaps seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Wu Hui pretended to be relaxed and said to everyone, "This kind of weather change is very common here. When the wind blows at night, the fog will naturally be blown away... If you feel that the night is long, How about asking Ragon to tell us a story?!"

Suddenly called by Wu Hui, Lagon smiled helplessly, "My stories are all related to this snow mountain, but I don't know if you like to hear it or not."

Song Jiang immediately became interested when he heard it, "Okay, we are worried about who to turn to to learn about the legend of Karabog Peak!"

After hearing this, Shen Wenwen and Zhao Jia agreed, "That's right... tell us quickly."

After hearing this, Lagon looked up at the Karabog Peak in the distance, and said in a low voice, "Karabog means the alternation of the sun and the moon in our local dialect. It is said that at the moment when the sun sets and the moon rises, Karabog A golden temple will appear on Mount Berg, and it is said that the God of Snow Mountain lives in this temple, protecting all the people who worship him piously.”

After hearing this, Song Jiang asked in a deep voice, "Is this the reason why this snow mountain is forbidden to climb?!"

Lagon shook his head and said, "Yes and no, in fact, the main purpose of doing this is for the sake of those mountaineering enthusiasts, so as to prevent some tragedies from happening again..."

"Are those things said on the Internet true?!" Song Jiang asked.

"Most of them are true..." Lagon said with a heavy tone.

Wu Hui sighed after hearing this, "Actually, Karabog Peak is mainly affected by the Indian Ocean airflow, and there is a lot of precipitation every year. Although the glaciers on the snow-capped mountains melt a lot in summer, the amount of snowfall in winter is enough to melt summer. back. Especially as the weather warms, the lower elevations melt rapidly, the higher ice often falls in large patches, and the higher ice moves slowly, if not collapsed. Constantly moving Glaciers make the ice very unstable and especially prone to avalanches. That's why Calabogg, while not the tallest mountain in the world, is one of the most difficult to conquer..."

At this time, Meng Zhe suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Are there any descendants of the Rihan people here?!"

Unexpectedly, Lagon and Wu Hui were all taken aback when they heard this, but Wu Hui quickly realized that he was a little surprised and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Meng to know such an ancient nation. In fact, even our local people know it." Few people know about the Rihan people anymore, and if I hadn’t compiled the local county annals before, I wouldn’t know about the Rihan people at all.”

Seeing Lagon's expression, Bai Ze obviously knew it, but he didn't say anything, so he took the initiative to look at Lagon and said, "What about you? Have you heard of this ancient nation before?!"

Unexpectedly, Lagon said with a solemn expression, "I have heard... the second half of the story I just told is about the Rihan people. I don’t know why, but all the Rihan people suddenly disappeared, because the time is too long, so the Rihan people didn’t leave any civilization, so naturally few people will know their existence.”

Bai Ze nodded when he heard this, and then said with regret, "Actually, I have always been very interested in the Rihan people, but unfortunately there are too few documents about them..."

After hearing this, Lagon and Wu Hui didn't answer. Song Jiang saw that neither of them seemed to want to continue this topic, so he had nothing to say, "Did the mountaineering team really not find it all the time?" ?”

After Wu Hui heard this, he shook his head and said, "No... It is said that the climate was extremely extreme that year. When the search and rescue personnel reached an altitude of 4000 meters, they encountered a snowstorm. To be safe, everyone retreated to the mountain, hoping to wait for the snowstorm to stop. Then go up to search and rescue. What’s weird is that the search and rescue personnel stopped as soon as they got off the mountain and the snowstorm stopped, and when they wanted to go up the mountain again, a large-scale avalanche occurred on Karabog Peak.”

Song Jiang was surprised and said, "It seems that the mountain god doesn't want them to go up to save people!"

As soon as Lagon heard it, he glanced at him and said, "We locals all think so, so we dare not go up to rescue people at all, and the survival rate of those dozens of people was almost zero, so No one is willing to take the risk anymore."

After hearing this, Wu Hui added, "Actually, if the climbing team had listened to the advice of our local people, such a tragedy would never have happened..."

After hearing this, Song Jiang asked, "How many meters above sea level did it happen?"

Wu Hui thought for a while and said, "The last time they contacted the mountain was at 5300 meters. After that, the climbing team disappeared completely."

Song Jiang was thoughtful when he heard it, "So the testing station was built below 5300?!"

Wu Hui nodded and said, "Almost, that position is a red line of death in the hearts of all of us. Ordinary people...or even herdsmen like Lagon who have been walking on Karabog Peak all the year round dare not cross it easily. .”

After dinner, everyone went back to sleep in the tent with their own concerns, only Song Jiang's eyes were like a pair of copper bells, and he couldn't fall asleep...
