Kunlun Glacier, the endless snow-capped mountains, as far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are all white.
If it weren't for wearing sunglasses, it would really blind everyone's eyes.
A gust of cold wind howled by, and Shirley Yang tightened her tight red down jacket. The color was very bright, and she was the only one who dared to wear it like this.
Fatty Wang followed Hu Bayi. Both of them were wearing simple cotton clothes. Fatty Wang whispered.
"Lao Hu, what kind of bird do you think is standing on that foreign girl's shoulder? With just a few feathers, why is it so impervious to the cold?"
To be honest, Fatty Wang is a bit like a bird. He has only a few feathers on his body, but he is not afraid of the cold. It is obvious that he is very effective in keeping out the cold. If he had such a down jacket, it would be so light.
Hu Bayi actually couldn't understand it, but after all, he was someone who had seen strange things like fire ladybugs before, so he said nonchalantly.
"Fat man, there are a lot of strange things in this world. Don't pay too much attention to them. We can just do our own thing."
Fatty Wang was a little unwilling to give in. He was a naturally restless person. Whenever he saw something strange, he wanted to go up and touch it. He asked again: Is it valuable?
To be honest, with Fatty Wang's strong curiosity and love for money, he often accidentally touches the authorities, so taking him to the grave is really a dangerous thing.
Fortunately, although this guy is not very reliable, he dares to fight hard and has a very deep brotherhood with Hu Bayi, so he can be regarded as a good partner.
In fact, when Professor Chen and others said they wanted to come to Kunlun Glacier, Hu Bayi's first reaction was to firmly oppose it.
After all, he had experienced a painful past here. Some of his comrades were burned alive by fire ladybugs. This was his nightmare.
However, he didn't know why, but when he looked at Shirley Yang's big bright eyes, he unexpectedly agreed.
What a weird thing!
…
"arrive!"
Looking at the bottomless glacier fissures, everyone's heart sank.
In such a dangerous place, if one accidentally falls, even if he does not fall into pieces, he will probably be cut into pieces by countless ice thorns.
In short, it is very dangerous.
When Hu Bay saw this situation, he discussed with Professor Chen with a serious face.
"Professor Chen, it's very dangerous to go down here. Otherwise, don't go down here. We, the rest of us, will go down."
Professor Chen was a little scared when he saw this situation, but the scholar's spirit of seeking knowledge drove him to go down. No matter what difficulties and obstacles there were, he had to witness history with his own eyes.
Therefore, he is very determined.
"No, we have to go down."
Professor Chen probably felt that his words were too strong and offended the dignity of team leader Hu Bayi, so he requested.
"Xiao Hu, our purpose is to trace the origins of history. If we can't overcome such a small difficulty, what else is there to do research on?"
"Please take the trouble to take us down with you. Even if there is an accident, we will never blame you."
At this time, Hao Aiguo, who was supporting the teacher, also echoed.
"Yes, this is our own choice."
"Yes, Brother Hu, just take us down."
Satibon and others also joined one after another. They all wanted to go down, otherwise this trip would be meaningless.
Hu Bayi looked at these pairs of firm eyes with some embarrassment, but also some admiration.
These are real scholars, not speculators.
Only true scholars can build a better country.
"Okay, you must be careful when you go down."
"Xiao Hu, don't worry."
Hu Bayi finally agreed, but he also asked Ye Yixin and a soldier to stay on top to deal with emergencies.
In fact, this is the benefit of Shirley Yang's cooperation with the archaeological team. Otherwise, let alone the help of the garrison, they would not even be able to enter the glacier.
Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief when he finally reached the crack without any danger.
Fatty Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a surprised look on his face.
"Lao Hu, it's warmer down here than above!"
Only then did Hu Bayi notice the temperature issue and frowned.
"There's no wind down here, so the temperature is naturally higher than above, but... it's not that much higher!"
Just as he was thinking, an exclamation came from beside him.
"Corpse!"
Upon hearing this, Shirley Yang immediately ran over and saw an ice corpse.
"Lao Hu, is this your comrade?"
"No, this equipment can't be either."
Shirley Yang took out the pistol from the ice corpse and answered while checking the condition of the gun.
"These are people from my father's expedition team. I have seen the equipment they wear."
As soon as Hu Ba saw her skillful inspection movements, he knew that she was good at shooting, and her level was pretty good.
"Ms. Yang, you hold this gun, but you still have to pay attention to safety."
"Okay, I'll cut it off."
Hu Ba nodded and warned worriedly.
"Everyone should also pay attention. There are many magical places in Kunlun Mountain, and there are also many magical creatures..."
Speaking of this, he subconsciously glanced at the golden bird on Shirley Yang's head, and then said.
"So, everyone must be careful, be careful, be careful again, and... definitely don't make too much noise."
"Okay, Xiao Hu, we will all pay attention."
When Hu Ba saw that everyone had listened, he waved with satisfaction.
"Okay, let's go now!"
At this time, the two soldiers who returned from exploring the road reported the situation. There was only one road under the crack.
In fact, this is fine, there is no need to be embarrassed about which path to choose.
After walking forward for a while, Fatty Wang wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and said.
"Lao Hu, why is it getting hotter and hotter? Isn't that right?"
Hu Bayi frowned, and he also discovered it.
Even if the temperature inside the mountain is a little higher than the outside, it can't be this high.
Besides, the cracks have been there for several years, so the low temperature outside has no effect on them?
impossible!
So that means...
Hu Bayi had some guesses in his mind and said.
"Don't be surprised. If you walk further, you might understand the reason."
Fatty Wang knew Hu Bayi very well, and he could tell by looking at his expression that he had an idea, so he quickly asked.
"Lao Hu, if you have thought of something, please tell me."
Hu Ba smiled and said nothing.
How could Fatty Wang be able to bear this attempt to cover up the truth? He kept pestering Hu Bayi just to make him say it out.
After a while, Hu Bayi lost his temper because of the entanglement, so he had no choice but to tell his guess.
"According to my guess, there should be an underground river underneath, and it leads to a very deep underground place, bringing the heat from the ground up."
"So this is ah!"
Hu Bayi patted Fatty Wang on the shoulder and said.
"This is just my guess, it may not be true. Maybe there is a volcano underground, so I can't be sure."
Fatty Wang shook his head and retorted.
"Lao Hu, don't belittle yourself. Your guesses are always the most reliable. I believe you."
Hu Bayi's heart warmed when he heard this, but he also felt a little bit dumbfounded. After all, he himself would not believe himself so much.
