The sudden noise in the tunnel startled me. How could there be such a loud sound in a tunnel that has been sealed underground for thousands of years?I straightened up wonderingly, looking at the puddle of defects, with question marks flying around in my heart.After staring hesitantly for a long time, I really wanted to jump down to see what happened, but the tunnel didn't look short, and maybe I couldn't go to the end after walking for a day.The tunnel still echoed the sound just now, and I always felt that the sound was a bit like the waves, but deep inland in Tibet, how could there be an ocean, unless it was hundreds of millions of years ago, this place was a vast ocean.

"Jinwei, come back quickly, and have breakfast." Xinhong shouted towards this end from the camp. "Come on, don't wait for me." After I finished speaking, I continued to stare at the ground, and then reluctantly left. Back at the camp, there was really no one waiting for me in this group. Everyone had already wolfed down the food, and no one was polite.In fact, I have no appetite. I didn’t have a peaceful night last night. Now I just want to sleep well. Fortunately, we will stay in Bangor County for another day.Because the leaders of Bangor will help us contact and organize migrant workers and pack cattle and horses during these two days. They will also introduce two people who are familiar with the local environment and proficient in Chinese and Tibetan languages ​​to guide us and accompany us into Qiangtang.I was listless and wanted to go back to the tent, but Xinhong stopped me and handed me a bowl of noodles.I opened my mouth to say thank you, but the words disappeared in my throat, and it was too foreign to say this to him.I was eating hot noodles around the campfire. Although it was not as good as the noodles in the noodle shop, I thought it was the most fragrant noodles in the world at the moment.

After eating noodles, everyone went out to do field research, and I went back to the tent to rest alone. They saw that my eye circles were as dark as a panda, so they didn't say I was lazy.During the day, there were more sounds of breathing and activities of living beings, and my ears finally felt better, and I fell asleep after a while.I didn't dream about that dark environment this time, and I slept very soundly, and finally woke up because I was so hungry.As soon as I woke up, Professor He Kai called everyone and said that he would introduce the guide recommended to us by the leader of Bangor, and asked us to get to know each other well.

I stood sleepily on the periphery of the crowd, wondering if these two guides were particularly strong, and if something dangerous happened, he might be able to play a role in preventing a group of old and weak women and children from suffering.While I was daydreaming, Professor He Kai introduced the guide. I was dumbfounded when I saw it. Why are there two old men again, and there are people who need to be taken care of in the team. Isn't this adding to the burden?I wanted to open my mouth to refuse this guide to join the team, but Professor He Kai praised the two old men in front of the crowd for how familiar they are with the environment and how good they are at living in the wild, so much so that I was embarrassed to express my opinion.

One of the old guides was tall and the other was thin, with completely different figures.Gao Da's name is not very clear, I only heard the local leaders call him the third child, so let's call him that.Professor He Kai said that he was a veteran who came here to support the construction and was very familiar with this place. Regardless of his age, his strength is much stronger than our young people.And the thin old guide is called Tashi Cuo. Professor He Kai said he is a local, but he is also proficient in Chinese and Tibetan languages. He is extremely smart and has crossed the Qiang Tang several times.After listening to the introduction, my impression of them changed greatly. People really can't be judged from the surface.

Professor He Kai took two old guides to introduce the team members to them one by one. When he introduced me, the tall guide called the third also stared at me for a long time, until Professor He Kai called him. Stared at me.Although I'm a seven-foot boy, I still feel ashamed when people stare at me like that.The old guide didn't walk away, but said to me kindly: "You look like someone I know." "Ah?" I was embarrassed and confused, and didn't know what words to use to deal with it. "Chen Jinwei, you are not bad, you can make the third guide look familiar, don't you know him too?" Professor He Kai still said with a smile.

"No way, I've never been to this place." I quickly explained. "I don't know him, but he looks familiar. Professor, let's introduce him." The third guide saw that there were so many people in a team, and he was also a little apprehensive, so he asked Professor He Kai to speed up the process so as not to waste time. After the introduction was finally finished, the earth was already covered with a gray color, and the temperature dropped sharply.The third guide is relatively easy to communicate with, he is very talkative, but the other thin guide named Zhaxicuo is not so friendly, he is silent and serious during the introduction, I am not good at communicating with such a guide people talking.Because we were about to leave for Sewa Village the next day, everyone had a rest early.I rested a long time during the day, so that at night I was refreshed and not at all sleepy.The two old guides also moved to the camp to rest with us at night, so that they can quickly integrate into the team.

The road has been bumpy these past few days, and my back is sore, so I just move around outside the tent.The bonfire outside the tent was still burning, and the two old guides were sitting next to them. I wanted to learn more about the situation in Qiang Tang from the two old seniors, so I went over to talk to them.The third guide greeted me as soon as I passed, and told me to sit near the fire so as not to get sick from the cold.I was flattered and sat next to the third child, and when I saw Tashi Cuo who was silent on the opposite side, my hot mood was completely extinguished.In order to enliven the atmosphere, I first said: "Guide Tashi, do you know the legends around here?"

"There are so many legends, which one do you say?" Zhaxicuo took out a pack of earth cigarettes while talking, lit it directly in the campfire, and inhaled heavily. "You will be unlucky when you see a phoenix, or the one that gouges out your eyes." As soon as I finished speaking, the third child was startled. He doesn't show emotion when it's none of his business. "Didn't you just go to Qiangtang to investigate, why do you ask this legend?" The third child was a little excited. "Hey, young man, come here to enjoy the fire." I was about to answer the third child, but Zhaxi Cuo stopped Xinhong who came out of the tent, and motioned him to sit down too, which surprised me. This is Zhaxi Cuodi Take the initiative to speak once.I looked at Xinhong with some envy, and wondered why everyone was so polite to Xinhong, even the serious Tashi Cuo was so kind to Xinhong?

Xinhong honestly came over and sat beside me, and then continued to say nothing. The third guide continued to ask: "Why are you asking about that legend? Don't tell me that you are looking for that bird." "No, no," I lowered my voice and said softly, "Actually, I want to look for it." "Just be honest and don't mess around. I heard from your Professor He that you don't have this project!" The youngest spoke in a quiet voice, but he was so overwhelming that I didn't dare to continue this topic. "I heard, young man, your surname is Zou, and your name is Zou Xinhong?" Tashi Cuo said suddenly again.

"Well." Xinhong answered briefly, it seems that Tashi Cuo has met his opponent. "What do your parents do?" Tashi Cuo interrogated unceremoniously, as if asking for household registration just like this when they first met. "Archaeology, then you are...?" Xinhong looked down at the bonfire jumping. "Your guide." Tashi Cuo actually laughed. I saw that Zhaxi Cuo liked talking to Xinhong so much, so I deliberately said that I had something to go away and threw him to Tashi Cuo, so as to melt the coldness of this guide.Seeing that I was about to leave, the third child got up as well, and I couldn't help but feel suspicious. The third guide was also a little strange, why he loved to befriend me so much.Of course, I wouldn't say it outright, so I went back to the tent with my third child to chat.As soon as I entered the tent, a dart was shot at me, which scared me half to death. It turned out that Yuan Yu was playing darts. He was really busy and busy.When Yuan Yu saw us walking in, he yelled: "Third guide, my dart is very good, can you help me get the red dart here?" "Red, is it gray?" The third guide took it off in confusion, and handed it to Yuan Yu. I was shocked when I heard the answer from the third child. The dart was indeed bright red. How could the third child not be able to distinguish it? Could it be that he is also color blind?I looked at the third child calmly, he was very calm and not nervous at all.I deliberately brought out a red and blue towel and asked the third child, but he said it was a gray and white towel.I wondered in my heart, this third child is actually protanopia, this kind of colorblindness can't distinguish between red and dark green, blue and purple, and purple. They often regard green as yellow, purple as blue, and green and blue. The hue is mixed with white, which is also called primary color blindness.I guess Xinhong also has this kind of disease, but color blindness is born. Uncle Zou is not color blind. Could it be that Aunt Lu is color blind? Unfortunately, I have never been in touch with her, so I don't know at all. "You really look like someone I've met." The third child continued the topic of the day, and I almost forgot if he didn't tell me. "Really, who does it look like?" I was still recalling the surprise in my heart, and I only heard two or three words about what the third child said. "Hey..." The third child let out a long sigh, and the air became cold. "Do you have parents?" Seeing that I didn't speak, the third child continued to ask, but this time he asked very quietly. It sounds strange to me, how can I ask about my parents, just like Nazhaxi.I don't want to talk about my parents' affairs with outsiders, not to mention that I have only known the third child for less than a day, and it is even more impossible to talk about my parents' affairs with him.However, the third child was very strange, he prevented us from looking for the mysterious bird, he was also color blind, asked about my parents, and said that I looked like someone, what is the origin of the third child?
