Chapter 1687 Night on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway
There are three main reasons why Liu Boyang wants to take Tu Xiong and Mao Mingxuan's gang to carry out the mission this time instead of Old Cat Cui Guodong and others. The first is to train the team, the second is because this mission is indeed not difficult, and the third is
It was because it was too difficult to gather Guodong Laomao and the others in a short period of time. Now Guodong Wan Ziliang and the others have returned to their respective provinces. Huzi Tiezheng Youlongjian is still hospitalized, but Laomao did not wait for his death.
After recovering from his injuries, he returned to the Northeast. Gao Zhenfei was guarding his master's tomb in HL Province and learning "the art of inviting gods", so it was hard to get together again. Next, Liu Boyang took Sister Baobao to have fun in the capital for another day.
In the early morning, we were ready to leave.
From the capital to Xi Zang, there is currently no direct train line. You need to transfer to three trains, namely the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway Line, the Longhai Railway Line and the Qinghai-Tibet Railway Line.
Although this mission had no time limit and was under the guise of tourism, Liu Boyang did not want to waste too much time. He did not take the first two trains and flew directly to Qh Province and landed in Xn City, the provincial capital.
When we arrived in xn city, it was already afternoon. Qh province is located in the northeastern part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the "Roof of the World". It is the birthplace of my country's three major rivers, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, and the Lancang River. It has dense mountains and rivers, and numerous amber swamps. The plateau climate here is somewhat uncomfortable, and the urban architecture is completely different from that of the eastern plain cities. In terms of economic development, this place is obviously far behind the capital, but it also has its own urban style. Liu Boyang I asked Mao Mingxuan to check the Internet on his mobile phone and found out that the Qinghai-Tibet Railway was not open at night, so he had to stay there for one night and leave for Xi Zang tomorrow morning, at least he could enjoy the scenery along the way.
That night, Liu Boyang and others, who came to Xn City for the first time, had a lot of fun in the city and ate a lot of local special snacks, beef jerky, steamed buns, pot helmets, Tianpei, and hand-caught mutton.
Wait, I also went to Kumbum Monastery for a while, and then went back to the hotel to sleep at ten o'clock at night.
The next morning, I finally boarded the famous Qinghai-Tibet Railway. It is said that the opening of this railway has greatly promoted the connection between the Xi Zang Autonomous Region and the mainland. In fact, judging from Liu Boyang's experience in joining the security team for so long
, the state spent a lot of money to overcome natural hazards and build such a railway purely out of the consideration of strengthening its control over Xi Zang.
The new train is traveling fast on the railway track, and every carriage is full of passengers. Since the opening of this only railway line to Xi Zang, there are not a few people taking it to Xi Zang every day, and these
Most of the passengers were very enthusiastic. They kept chatting and excited along the way. The loudspeaker in the carriage also played the pleasant song "Get on the Train to Lhasa", which was even more motivating.
the enthusiasm of the passengers.
Liu Boyang's carriage was naturally very lively when nine people gathered together. Sister Baobao had prepared all the snacks the day before, and she spread them out as soon as she got in the car. The table was full, and everyone could take whatever they wanted.
, which further enhanced the pleasure of the trip. He Zhiwei and the others even prepared playing cards. Everyone was eating snacks and playing cards, laughing and laughing. The atmosphere was so full that several passengers next door also joined in with great interest.
Come here, watch the card game, share snacks, and get to know each other. The trip is really enjoyable.
The only thing that is not harmonious with this pleasant journey is that as the train gradually penetrates into the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the atmosphere drops sharply. The season at this time is just late spring and early summer in the north, but here you still need to wear thick clothes Down jacket, the mountains in the distance are even covered with white snow, looking very desolate and sacred.
A group of people were tired from playing cards, and their tongues were numb when talking, so they had to put away their cards and rest for a while. When the sky darkened, they had an expensive but sumptuous dinner provided on the train. Mao Mingxuan He Zhiwei and others went to bed first.
Unlike the bustle during the day, the carriage was very quiet at night. It may be that the huge temperature difference between the inside and outside of the carriage and the irresistible altitude sickness affected the passengers, and they all fell into a deep sleep one after another.
In Liu Boyang's carriage, He Zhiwei, Mao Mingxuan, Murong Xiaoxue and others were all asleep. Only Liu Boyang and Sister Baobao were not sleeping. Even though the air conditioner was on in the car, Liu Boyang asked Sister Baobao to put on a warm mink velvet coat and hugged Sister Baobao. She whispered something while coaxing her to sleep.
But Sister Baobao was obviously not sleepy. She got up from Liu Boyang's arms, wiped the hazy carriage glass with her hands, looked at the deep darkness and the endless empty plateau outside, and murmured: "Boyang, look, It’s really beautiful outside!”
"Haha, what's so beautiful? It's dark, and there are no street lights here, so you can't see anything at all!" Liu Boyang said with a smile.
Sister Baobao rolled her eyes at him and said coquettishly: "You don't know anything about romance. Hum, why can't you see it? Didn't you look at the snow-capped mountains in the distance? That is the real ancient holy mountain. I once heard that I once told a story that the snow-capped mountains in Xi Zang are very spiritual, and there are gods living on them, protecting the people living here!"
Liu Boyang leaned on the soft body of Sister Baobao and looked at the mountainous snow-capped mountains in the distance. He smiled and said, "That's great. When we are free one day, we will definitely climb up to the snow-capped mountains to play. I really do." I want to see what the gods who live up there look like!"
"You wrote a bad check again. You always made good promises, but you never fulfilled your promise. You are busy all day long. It's not easy to see you..." Sister Baobao seemed to be reminded of how she was usually treated. Liu Boyang said resentfully about his neglect.
Liu Boyang quickly persuaded: "Well, wife, didn't I come out with you this time? How can you say that I wrote a bad check? Haha, it's getting late, I'll go to bed after watching for a while..."
"Well..." Sister Baobao nodded, fell into Liu Boyang's arms again, and said intoxicatedly: "We have agreed that if we have the opportunity in the future, we must climb a snow mountain together, preferably Mount Everest. I When I was in geography class when I was a kid, one of my big dreams was to climb to the top of Mount Everest! In addition, I also want to see Tibetan antelopes..."
"You have watched too much "Kekexili"..." Liu Boyang chuckled and pinched her nose, and soon Baobao sister fell asleep in his arms.
The only difference between the Qinghai-Tibet Railway and other domestic railways is that the trains on other railway lines cannot stop for too long, but the trains on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway can stop multiple times, because many passengers cannot avoid plateaus. This is a reaction that cannot be cured and cannot be adjusted with drugs. You can only let it adapt slowly, or get out of the car and get some fresh air.
Unfortunately, two passengers on the train Liu Boyang was riding tonight suddenly suffered from altitude sickness, and it was very serious. They foamed at the mouth and fell into coma in just ten minutes. Even the doctors on the train could not save them.
Okay, at this time, the train has left the Golmud section and entered the foot of an unknown snow-capped mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. There is no village in front or behind, so it can only stop temporarily to let the two passengers get some air and look for the local area.
People find ways.
When the train stopped, the passengers on the car were all awakened. He Zhiwei, Mao Mingxuan and others who were sleeping in a daze did not know what happened, so they heard the loudspeaker on the car shout: "Everyone
Attention, passengers. We are very sorry to inform that due to the sudden onset of altitude sickness on two passengers on board, the train will temporarily stop traveling. Our medical staff are doing their best to rescue them. We apologize for any delay!"
ps: Here is a special explanation, because I have never been to Xi Zang, nor have I ridden the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, so these chapters are all fabricated. If there are brothers who have been there, just watch it for fun...
