Chapter 12 The City

"Brother, what do you want to say?" Gesangmedo couldn't help but put down the camera in his hand and looked at Mustache with a questioning expression.

Mustache doesn't know much about Tibetan areas. He has never even heard of Gedanli, but he still knows some basic common sense. The permafrost line on snow peaks is probably more than 5,000 meters above.

Because of this, many large snow peaks are like wearing a white hat in summer. The snow layer below the permafrost line will melt with changes in seasons and temperatures.

The large snowfield in front of us is directly close to the ground. In this month, there are occasionally some incomplete snow that has not yet melted, which is barely acceptable, but such a sea-like snowfield has not melted at all, which is a problem in itself.

A rather strange phenomenon. Gesangmei Duo seemed to have forgotten this in her excitement, but her reaction was also very quick. She knew it as soon as Mustache said it.

"The snow here is so thick, why doesn't it melt?"

"I don't know." Mustache said and started walking towards the snow under the snow peak. The closer the distance, the more obvious the peculiarity of this snow. Visual inspection showed that the depth of the snow was about ten meters.

"Isn't this impossible?" Gesangmei Duo was also surprised. The fluffy snow was piled up so high, which was not consistent with common sense. A cough could cause a large area to collapse.

"There is only one possibility." Mustache has slowly approached the snow. He knew in his heart that the reason why the snow can pile up so high is probably because there is something buried under the snow, but he dare not imagine that this snow

The area of ​​​​the domain is very large. If something is buried underneath, what would it be?

It was completely dark. Gesang Meiduo was holding a small carbide lamp, which is a kind of thermal light source. The illumination range is relatively wide, but it cannot shine too far. Mustache also held a flashlight, and the two of them coordinated the lighting.

, the visibility suddenly improved a lot. I couldn't describe what it felt like to stand on the edge of a large snowfield more than ten meters thick. Gesang Medo hid behind Mustache and held the carbide lamp far away, lest the heat would melt the snow.

Snow causes collapse.

By this time, Mustache's guess was already clear. Based on the general situation at the edge of the snow, he could be sure that there must be something underneath, because here at the edge, the large areas of snow formed a slope from high to low. He really wanted to

I just dug a hole in the snow and went in, but after thinking about it for a while, I gave up the idea for the time being and decided to go for a walk.

They walked around the edge of the snow for about a hundred meters. There was less snow here. Moving forward, there was even less snow. Mustache began to dig tentatively. The fluffy objects piled up, which required absolute balance.

If the point is broken, this balance will disappear. Mustache only dug a few times, and a large amount of snow collapsed at once, but this did not cause too much danger. Once the snow collapsed, it would be much safer to dig again.

His movements were very fast and skillful. If he had tools, there wouldn't be much difference between a creeper and a pangolin. Gesang Medo looked at his mustache and wondered if he often dug holes.

Mustache carved a path in the fallen snow. Next, he felt a little surprised. He could no longer dig the hole. Huge pieces of ice appeared in front of him. The ice cubes were very square. Many ice cubes were superimposed on each other, and they were like

Like a wall of ice, the temperature is very low and these ice cubes are as hard as stone.

The ice wall was very thick, like a very large and translucent crystal. Mustache stopped digging, and he carefully cleared away the snow next to it bit by bit. This ice wall seemed to have no end, it was both wide and high.

When Mustache stopped what he was doing, he was shocked by a sudden thought.

He immediately got out of the tunnel in the snow, and then continued walking forward with Kelsang Medo. After about thirty meters, he chose a place to start again and dug a tunnel out of the snow. This time he still couldn't

Exceptionally, when the excavation reached a certain level, the thick ice wall appeared again.

He chose several places in a row and repeated this behavior. After getting out for the last time, most of his guesses were confirmed.

"Brother, what are you doing, can you tell me?" Gesangmedo put down the lamp in his hand, and then took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Mustache reached out and snatched the cigarettes away, took out one and lit it.

His thoughts were rising along with the smoke.

"Brother, these are my cigarettes. If you want to smoke them, I can give them to you, but you don't have to take them all, right?"

"You have to do one thing." Mustache turned to look at Gesang Medo: "Keep everything you see in your heart and don't tell anyone."

Mustache knew that it would be unrealistic to leave Kelsang Meiduo behind at this time. He didn't want the process of this matter to spread anymore, so all he could do was to let the other party keep it a secret. He vaguely felt that the thick and long lasting

There must be something in the ice wall.

Where is the need for a continuous wall? Without a doubt, cities.

At first, Xiaozhu was also shocked by this speculation. Is there a city with ice walls among the snow peaks that have been deserted for thousands of years? This is ridiculous. Although Xiaozhu has identified it, he has never seen it with his own eyes.

When he saw the facts, he still left some room for speculation. But he already felt that the place Chanado was looking for at that time should be here.

"Don't tell anyone? Can you tell me what I'm going to see?"

"I don't know. I paid you, and you just do what you should do." Mustache threw away the cigarette butt and stared at the carbide lamp in Gesangmeduo's hand.

"Including my child? Can't tell?"

"yes."

"What if I accidentally let something slip?"

"Then tell your child that you are dreaming." Mustache is indifferent and cold to most people, but to Gesang Meiduo, he seems to be unable to say anything without warmth, especially when the other party mentions his child.

Whenever she is there, Xiaowu always feels the warmth of a long-lost bystander. Kelsang Medo loves her children very much. You can hear this from her usual speech. It is the kind of love that she gives her all.

Mustache raised the carbide lamp and asked Gesangmedo to wait here for the time being. He had carefully observed the continuous ice wall. It was very thick and no different from the city wall. Even if he rounded the shovel, it could only

A white mark was created. He followed the last passage in the snow and removed the lampshade. The burning fire smelled of gas, and a small pit was quickly melted out of the hard ice wall.

The thickness of the ice wall exceeded Xiaozhu’s imagination. In the end, he had to crawl into the melted hole and continue to bake. When the nearly three-meter-thick ice wall was melted through, Xiaozhu suddenly felt the ice in front of him.

The space seemed to expand infinitely like magic. He turned off the carbide lamp and shined a flashlight along it.

At this moment, he was shocked. This kind of shock was witnessed with his own eyes, and it was completely different from the shock in his imagination.

Behind the ice wall was a city of indescribably huge ice. The flashlight's light beam brought out little by little flashes of light in countless buildings, and the light reflected the ancient atmosphere. When his guess was completely confirmed by the facts

At that time, the violent shock seemed to be accompanied by many complicated emotions.

He could not see the whole city under the snow for the time being, but questions were already abounding. Was this the ice city that Zhanado was looking for back then? Who built this ice city? Who lives here? Xiao Xiao

Almost everything Huzi could see now was made of crystal clear ice.

This is an ice city, and it is like a dead city. It has been empty and silent for countless years. When Mustache came back along the snow-covered passage, he thought that Chanado's motive for looking for this place was not that simple. He

It can't be just to witness this miracle with his own eyes. There must be something he wants in this ice city.

Moreover, it seems that Chanado is not the only person who came here. The three corpses of unknown origin and the fierce murderer that he saw before have already explained everything.

Mustache called Gesang Meiduo, and they crawled in through the melted ice hole. Gesang Meiduo almost went crazy, she finally knew what secret Xiaozi wanted her to keep.

In front of this huge ice city, the two people seemed as insignificant as not existing. Then, Mustache discovered that this ice city was like a huge house. It was closed. Every distance, there would be an extremely thick tree.

The pillars support the dome. The illumination of the two lamps cannot reach too far, but standing here, one can imagine its grandeur just by feeling.

Mustache is not uninformed, but he cannot tell what era or nation the buildings in this ice city belong to. They have almost no style. The buildings are very orderly and neatly arranged. There are several wide streets in the buildings, leading to

Towards the front.

"Even today, it is difficult to build a place like this." Gesangmeido was a little panicked after being shocked. No matter who is in such a dead city in the dark, they will feel that there is a feeling coming from their hearts.

Deep uneasiness.

But during the following process, Xiaozhu felt another kind of shock. There were human traces everywhere in this ice city, indicating that people had lived here several years ago. However, what Xiaozhu saw was only emptiness. If

If he really saw corpses everywhere, he wouldn't have any more doubts. Just like the Mayans, they existed but disappeared completely without a trace.

Mustache didn’t know who the owner of this ice city was or where they had gone. At the same time, he had a deeper puzzlement. Chanado, the last person who was rumored to have come into contact with the apocalyptic prophecies, was here.

What are you looking for when you come to an already deserted ice city?
