Chapter 22 Chapter 21 Journey to the West

The black shadow below was like an elephant, the rope was caught by it and the driver's seat that was tied to the end of the rope also vibrated.I hastily shouted and asked Hu Liang and Zhang Yicheng to come over and take a look. They didn't care at first, but after hearing me shout a few times, they put down their things and came over.I thought about pulling up the rope earlier to prevent Zhao Fei or others from killing us and raiding us, but it was still a step too late. The rope continued to shake slightly, but the black shadow in the night did not continue to climb up, but froze in place.If it wasn't for the outline of the black shadow illuminated by the flashlight, I would have thought I was wrong, it might be the refraction effect of the wind and snow.However, Zhang Yicheng and Hu Liang also saw that the black shadow was actually clinging to the cold mountain rock.I tried to pull the rope up again, gritted my teeth and tried several times, but the rope still couldn't be pulled back.Zhang Yicheng thought I was boring, so he insisted on giving it a try, but he couldn't move it either.Hu Liang, Zhang Yicheng and I, the three big men pulled the rope vigorously, but the rope still didn't move.

"Damn, what's going on?" Zhang Yicheng was a little panicked. I also became anxious, I couldn't see clearly in the wind and snow, God knows what was lying on the rock.Immediately, I lost my mind, and simply said: "He who comes is not kind, and he who is kind will not come. Since we refuse to let go of the rope, let's each feed it a bullet and see if it lets go!" Hu Liang hesitated for a while, but had to agree: "Okay, let's throw a cigar tin box down first, if there is no response, it's not too late to shoot!" But Zhang Yicheng said: "What if there is someone below?"

I snorted: "The old Maozi is not that big, do you think the person lying on the rope is a human? I see that Zhao Fei's diary is correct, this snow mountain is really inhabited by monsters!" After listening to it, Zhang Yicheng said, "It turns out that what my father said is the truth - the spirit of the land produces outstanding people, and the spirit of the mountain produces goblins! This Himalayas is so damn evil, there are not a single god, but there are so many goblins!" After we finished playing with our words, Hu Liang smashed a cigar tin box down first. After several bangs, the box fell on the snow.However, that huge black shadow was still firmly attached to the edge of the mountain, and the rope was caught by it and could not move.Zhang Yicheng didn't believe in evil, so he drew his gun and fired three shots downwards, all of which hit the shadow.Unexpectedly, the black shadow was unscathed, motionless, dodging or dodging, and was not afraid of gunshots at all.

This scares us all.At that time, the most powerful thing was not the gold bell jar, but the firearms invented by foreigners.Back then there was no body armor, at least none of us had seen it, so the common sense was that guns could kill all creatures.This time, everyone has seen things that bullets can't kill in their lives, and they are all stunned.We used a box cannon, that is, a Mauser military pistol, with an effective range of within 100 meters. The black shadow was very close, and it couldn't be killed, but it could also be wounded. How come nothing happened. Is it really a monster lying on the rock?

The three of us looked at each other in blank dismay, this is not bad, bullets can't kill him, let alone a hand-to-hand fight with it.Fortunately, that thing didn't continue to climb up, otherwise the three of us would have died on the cliff.At that time, I realized why Zhao Fei couldn't get out of the snow mountain for nine years and lived on a high cliff.If I live at the foot of the mountain, I'm afraid I'll be killed while sleeping, and I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow. "What should I do?" I thought for a long time before asking this question. Hu Liang kept staring down, but the black shadow still didn't move, so he said: "There is no way to continue this stalemate. Xiaoqiang is still waiting for us in the cave. If there is trouble over there, he doesn't even have a helper."

I stomped my feet in anxiety, Yang Ning was in the cave, Han Xiaoqiang had no ability to protect himself, so he definitely couldn't take care of Yang Ning.The longer we stay, the more dangerous they become.Zhang Yicheng looked down angrily, but couldn't think of a way out, so he had to wander around in the cabin.I had stood near the hatch so long that my body felt cold again, and I returned to the fire to warm myself.However, the fire had grown smaller and had to be refueled.There are a lot of things that can be burnt in the cabin, but Zhao Fei worked so hard to save them all. We burnt them to our heart's content, so it's no wonder she had to cry to death.

Hu Liang was not in the mood to keep warm, and neither was Zhang Yicheng, so the three of us ignored the fire.It can be said that the situation is not serious at this point, because the thing has not climbed up, and we still have a chance to find a way out.Zhang Yicheng even speculated that the thing might have frozen to death half way up.Ice and snow froze the unknown object on the edge of the mountain, so everyone couldn't pull the rope.This seems to be a very reasonable explanation, and we are all inclined to this answer, otherwise I really can't think of anything that is not afraid of bullets.

But when we looked down again, we were startled immediately. The thing was a little closer to the top of the cliff—it moved! "What's going on? I thought it was dead!" Zhang Yicheng was seriously disappointed. I looked down and felt that something was wrong, so I hurriedly asked Hu Liang to take out the flashlight and shine down together.There were still a few flashlights in the cabin, and Zhang Yicheng also took them all, shining them into the cloudy wind and snow.To be honest, I will never forget that scene. When all the beams of light were concentrated on the outline of the black shadow, the shock has not faded until now.The black silhouette is indeed not a person, but it is not any creature, but a lifelike stone sculpture!

"How is this possible!" The three of us exclaimed in unison, no one thought that the one lying on the rock would be a lifeless stone sculpture!Since the stone sculpture has no life, how can it climb to the rock? When we climbed up, there was nothing on the rope!Is it really a stone monster that absorbed the aura from the Himalayas and possessed an incredible life?If it's just like this, there's nothing to be afraid of. The most terrifying thing is that the stone sculpture looks like a weird naked woman!This is almost the same as the naked girls in Zhao Fei's diary and Yang Ning's map, they are not fake!

The naked girl on the rope has long hair, is naked, and has a hideous face. She doesn't look like a woman from the Central Plains, but looks a bit like a foreigner.The naked female stone sculpture is as big as a giant elephant, if it really climbed up, no one would want to leave alive.I thought it was some weird creature, but I fired a few more shots, and none of the bullets hurt the nude stone sculpture at all.This phenomenon frightened the three of us big men, and we would rather die when the plane crashed than encounter such a horrific thing. "Damn it, my dad and I killed so many strange animals and birds in Qilian Mountains, we've never seen anything like this before!" Zhang Yicheng spat on purpose, "Which pervert is he, who doesn't want to mess with women when he's idle? Carve such obscene stone statues on the snow-capped mountains!"

Hu Liang stared at it intently, and then said: "Even if it can be carved, can the stone statue move by itself?" I couldn't sit still anymore, the nude stone sculpture was obviously playing with us, climbing up for a while, and not moving for a while, wouldn't it be more fun to kill or cut.The three of us stood at the hatch for too long, our eyebrows were frosted, and we retreated into the cabin.At this time, the fire had already been extinguished, and Zhang Yicheng wanted to light the fire again when he saw it.However, the driver's seat in the cabin "clicked", and the metal at the bottom broke off, where the rope was tied. Hu Liang and I were startled, and ran to the cabin door to look down. Oh my god, the stone statue of the naked woman moved again, this time tens of meters away from the plane!I thought it was a hallucination, or that the nude stone statue didn't move at all, but this time I saw the stone statue up close, so what's the use of deceiving myself. In 1943, it can be said that not many people in China and the whole world knew the origin of the stone statue.Therefore, it is easy to understand why we couldn't figure it out and panicked thinking it was a monster.The stone statue is indeed a very scary thing, which can be seen from Zhao Fei's nine years of snow mountain experience.At that time, from Yang Ning's crazy words, I also deduced that the masked man who captured her had also seen the weird stone sculpture of a naked woman, otherwise it would not have been drawn on the map. There are many strange things in the world. Since they exist, we must have the opportunity to understand them.On the Himalayas in 1943, we had a lot of positive contact with strange stone statues, and the story behind will be even more thrilling.But now I can't directly explain what the stone statue is, otherwise it would be too abrupt. I will give the answer soon, and the next thing I will talk about is a more mysterious discovery. When the stone statue approached step by step, we could no longer calm down and had to find another way out.Before I came up with a solution, I tore off a blank page in Zhao Fei's diary, wrote a few words, and explained our whereabouts to Yang Ning and Han Xiaoqiang.Then, I picked up a cigar tin from a pile of cigar tins in the cabin, stuffed the written note into it, and threw it into the snow valley below.I hope Yang Ning and Han Xiaoqiang can find out that maybe we will never have the chance to meet again after this parting, but please don't worry about our life or death.For Yang Ning, who finally saw her again, I was very reluctant to part with her. Unfortunately, no one knew that this kind of encounter would happen after running out of the cave. When the desire to survive becomes strong, the potential of human beings will explode and do things that are absolutely impossible in ordinary times.We decided, since we could kill the stone statue of the nude woman, we climbed out of the wreckage of the plane and climbed to the other side of the snow-capped mountain with our bare hands.Although the nude stone statue is not as good as a sword and a gun, and has a huge body, it seems that its movements are not sensitive.If we can climb to the snow mountain, it is possible to reach the snow valley from another place. Hu Liang disagreed with the conclusion that the stone statue of the nude woman moved slowly. He said, "I don't think the stone statue is simple. We just left the hatch for a while, and it suddenly climbed such a distance. Is the speed of ordinary people so fast?" I was too afraid to continue thinking, so I began to look around the cabin, looking for a hole I could pass through, and climbed out of the cabin.Lao Maozi's plane is very strong. After nine years in the low-temperature environment of the plateau and snow-capped mountains, it is still difficult to break.Many of the current perforations were caused by the crash, and the hailstorm from the air mass not long ago did not break through here.I searched for a while, and finally realized that the windshield of the cockpit was the breach, and it was the safest way out from there. In 1934, the plane of Zhao Fei, Govorov and others crashed on the Himalayas. The head of the plane just hit a cave, and the outside of the cave was a flat ground, so it was embedded on the cliff for 9 years.Now it's time to escape from the plane, the cabin door is no longer safe, and the stone statue of a naked woman is waiting below.The only way to get out is to get into the cave through the glass opening of the cockpit, but whether the cave is a dead end, whether there is a passage leading to other places, and what is in the cave, none of us will know. Due to the collision with the mountain, the glass in front of the cockpit was broken. In order to prevent the cold wind from pouring in, Zhao Fei picked up aluminum pieces from other crashed planes from various places in the snow mountain to seal the gap.It took Hu Liang and I a lot of effort to remove the aluminum pieces one by one, while Zhang Yicheng continued to monitor the stone statues on the rock. In the so-called secret place, there are surprises everywhere. We just removed the aluminum sheet and wanted to see what was going on outside the nose of the plane, but we saw a wide cave entrance with long-faded murals painted inside. .What is even more puzzling is that the mural is actually the storyline in the movie-the picture of Tang Xuanzang climbing a snow-capped mountain with a monkey on the way to learn Buddhist scriptures.
