Chapter 359 Tangled

It was very smooth to apply for a border protection certificate at Nikko City Border Building.

A member of the Sunshine City Blue Sky Rescue Team was working in the border defense building. Liu Mo'ang didn't know about it before, but Liu Mo'ang met him during the last time Motuo disaster relief, so this time he and Chu Qian applied for a border defense certificate smoothly and quickly.

"Brother Xia, I won't invite you to dinner this time. I'm going to rush forward. When I come back, I'll call Brother Yi, Boss Zhong and the others, let's have a good meal."

Xia Zhixin smiled and said, "Okay, we will get together again when you come back. Are you planning to arrive in Houzang today or to settle down on Ding Day?"

"It's time to set the day. It's not yet ten o'clock. If there is no traffic jam on the road, you can feel the set the day at 8 o'clock in the evening."

"Okay, brother, be careful on the way with you and your siblings."

Say goodbye to Xia Zhixin, Liu Mo'ang and Chu Qian drive on the road. From Rikkong City to Dingri, you can just kill all the way along National Highway 318.

However, the Lari Expressway under construction has not been repaired yet. If this road is repaired, at least one-third of the time will be saved.

The journey from Rikkong City to Houzang is basically carried out in the river valley. After leaving Rikkong City, follow the airport expressway and then exit Qushui, cross the Rikkong River from Rikkong River Bridge, and then board National Highway 318. After passing Qushui, the journey is basically along the Yajiang River.

The plateau in August is the most beautiful time of the year. When you drive on National Highway 318 along the Ya River, you will be incredible all the way.

Unlike the flat northern Tibetan Plateau, the Himalayas in the south and the Gangdes in the north are one of the world's largest mountain ranges at an average altitude and the other is the fourth-ranked mountain range in the world. These two majestic mountains and rivers originating from these two mountains make it full of gullies.

Compared with the steep Hengduan Mountains, the terrain here is more majestic. The nearby low-altitude areas are lush hillsides, while the distant high-altitude areas are icebergs that last for thousands of years.

The Yarlung Zangbo River sandwiched between two majestic mountains and its numerous tributaries make this place even more mysterious in addition to its unique majesty.

In August, the Yajiang River is the most abundant time of the year. When you drive on National Highway 318 by the river, you can even hear the roar of the river when you fall down the windows.

Such a scenery is also unseen in other areas of the plateau. Chu Qian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the scenery outside greedily, wishing she could come down to draw a picture.

I had lunch in a town on the way and arrived at Houzang at around 2:30 in the afternoon.

"Do you want to stay here for one night? Houzang is a city that we have aided from Dongshan. There are many fellow villagers here in Dongshan. There are also Zhashlunpo Monastery here. If you want to take a look, let's find a place to stay first and then go for a walk."

Chu Qian thought about it and shook her head, "Forget it, I'm not very interested in temples or something. If we have time when we come back, we will take a look. I just want to see Mount Everest now."

"Okay, then let's continue to set out and strive to arrive at Dingri before the sun sets today."

"Do you want me to drive for you for a while?" Chu Qian was a little eager to try.

"Are you sure you can drive on this kind of road?" Liu Mo'ang asked with a smile.

Chu Qian bit her lower lip and thought about it again, and finally shook her head and said, "Let me practice driving..."

The white lion behind him snored, as if saying, "Mom, why are you scared?"

The car continued to speed on National Highway 318 in two lanes, because the speed limit and interval speed limits were not increased.

In fact, on this kind of road, you can't drive even if you want to drive fast. There are many cars on the road, and if you drive fast, it's easy to get into trouble.

Last year, Liu Mo'ang witnessed the car accident caused by speeding at the entrance of the inn. He remembered clearly the tragic situation of the two deceased...

Fortunately, there was no traffic jam on the road. At around 8 o'clock in the evening, the car drove into Dingri County, where the confluence of Jianu Zangbu and Xijiuqu. The sun had not set yet!

The county town is not big, much smaller than Dangquka County. The two of them found a hotel and stayed there, and then took Bai Shi out to find a Dongshan noodle restaurant to have a meal of Dongshan fried noodles, which made Chu Qian beautiful.

After dinner, the two of them wanted to take a walk on the streets of the county town and experience the charm of this small county town.

As a result, I met many Tibetans along the way. After seeing the white lion, they folded their hands together, which made the two of them have to finish their walk early and return to the hotel to rest.

Early the next morning, before dawn, the two of them drove onto the road with Bai Shi. The car was filled with oil from the county town. It would be impossible not to refuel, because there was only one gas station on the way from the county town to Mount Everest Base Camp...

Then the two drove back to National Highway 318 from the county town, and after walking six kilometers along National Highway 318, they arrived at the Lulu Checkpoint.

Chu Qian got off the car and went to the checkpoint by herself. Liu Mo'ang also had to be inspected by the armed police brother.

The mighty white lion in the trunk made the two armed police brothers envious on their faces.

After the inspection, when he drove across the surging Pengqu River from the bridge, Chu Qian asked curiously: "Is this river the upper reaches of the Ya River?"

"No, this is Pongqu, a river that originates from the northern slope of the Himalayas, then travels south across the Himalayas and enters Nepal, and finally flows into the Ganges."

"Ah? There are rivers that can pass through the Himalayas from north to south? I thought only the Yajiang River could do this, but I didn't expect there are rivers that can pass through the Himalayas."

"Of course there are, and there should be quite a lot of them. Gang Rinpozi knows it?"

"Of course I know, that is the head of the sacred mountain recognized by Buddhists all over the world."

"You should know the four major rivers that originated from Kam Rinpozi?"

"I remember it seems that they were all named after animals, right?"

"That's right, Xiangquan River and Shiquan River are the two major river sources of the Indus River. These two rivers cross the Himalayas to the west and finally form the Indus River. The Peacock River is the source of a tributary of the Ganges River. After crossing the Himalayas to the southwest, it finally merges into the Ganges River. The Maquan River is the source of the Ya River, and it eventually passes through the Himalayas and flows into the Indian Ocean. The Pengqu River we just passed through also cross the Himalayas to the south and flows into the Ganges River."

"Wow, I thought the Himalayas were unattainable, and there was no river that could pass through the Himalayas."

"It's not like this. Although the Himalayas are the highest mountain range in the world, there are also some rivers that can cross this mountain range along some valleys in the Himalayas. I won't talk about the rivers I just mentioned, just talk about the six famous ditches in the back cave, three of which have rivers that cross the Himalayas. For example, the Pengqu River we just passed by, will cross the famous Chentang Gowl through the Himalayas after we arrived at the Himalayas. Among the two remaining ditches, one is Chentang Gowl and the other is Zhangmu Gowl. However, these rivers are not as famous as the four holy rivers."

"How do you know so much?" Chu Qian praised sincerely.

Lao Liu was a little shy when praised, "Hehe, isn't you going to take you to see Mount Everest? Of course, you need to learn more about Mount Everest and the Himalayas."

While talking, the car arrived at an intersection, and National Highway 318 continued to extend westward, but a huge archway appeared on the south side of the road.

"This is the gate of Mount Everest Scenic Area." Liu Mo'ang said while turning the car on the road.

This huge archway has two lines of golden characters written in Tibetan and Chinese characters - Mount Everest National Park. Behind the archway is a straight and brand new asphalt road, on the left is the ticket office, and on the right is the memorial stone tablet unique to the plateau.

At this time, there were many vehicles in front of the gate, and some tourists drove over as early as possible. It is estimated that these tourists had similar ideas to Liu Mo'ang, and went in early in the morning and then returned in the afternoon. After all, staying at the Mount Everest Tourist Camp is a very painful thing.

"You wait in the car and I'll go down to see the fare, and if it's what your brother said."

Chu Qian nodded.

After a while, Liu Mo'ang walked back from the ticket office, opened the car door and discussed with Chu Qian: "Wife, I have a total of 32 car and I, 16 yourself, and 48 of us. But after entering, we have to buy tickets for environmentally friendly sightseeing buses inside. One hundred and two of us are one. If we want to enter, it will be a total of 72."

Chu Qian put on her sunglasses, put on a sun hat, got out of the car, stretched her waist and said, "It's so expensive."

"You little rich woman think the ticket is expensive? Why don't we go on that road to evade tickets?"

Chu Qian's eyes suddenly widened, and even through her sunglasses, Liu Mo'ang could feel her temptation.

He bit his lower lip with his upper teeth, looking very entangled. After a long time, Chu Qian asked in a low voice: "If you go that road, do you have to go a long way?"

Liu Mo'ang took out his cell phone and fiddled with it for a few times and said, "It's not too far. That place is more than fifty kilometers away. It's only an hour to drive there. But even if we go that road, we probably will only escape the tickets at most. When we get inside, we have to buy tickets for sightseeing buses."

"Ah? That's right?" Chu Qian was a little disappointed.

Ticket money and other things are nothing to her. This girl is obviously in love with doing some unconventional things, such as evading tickets...

As a girl who has been very tutoring since childhood and has been well protected by adults and brothers, she probably has never done anything outrageous since she was a child. Now no one cares about it, and her boyfriend supports her, which makes her want to give it a try.

"It's okay, it's still early now, and it's just dawn. Why don't we go there and have a look? Or come back halfway? This is nothing. As long as you are happy and you like it, I'll do it with you."

Chu Qian was so happy that she was about to agree, a strange voice came from the other side of the car: "This car looks quite domineering, what kind of car is this?"

As soon as the wild-looking Xiaolong stopped by the roadside, he immediately attracted the attention of many people, so several Tibetan men quickly came up with things in their hands.

One of the men wearing red clothes and a black face was standing on the other side of the Xiaolong looking at Chu Qian and Liu Mo'ang.
