Chapter 90 The majestic Kunlun
Wang Tianlai is a legendary figure. Some people say he is a demobilized military doctor, some people say he is a college student of workers, peasants and soldiers, and some people say he was once a Tibetan secret hidden man, Gaidangwa. In short, no one can tell his specific origin. He only knows that he is skilled in medical skills and treats diseases and saves people in pastoral areas. He is a great man with a heart of bodhisattva.
But this person is not a hermit. He is a secular person. It is said that he has overseas relations. He often has no beginning or end. No one has seen him again since the late 1980s. The magical story about Dr. Wang is widely circulated in pastoral areas and is magical, but it is mixed with too many beautiful imaginations of herders. It is equivalent to mythological stories and is basically not credible. For example, Dr. Wang can resurrect the dead and change the head and heart of people. In fact, this highly complex operation is still a medical difficulty in today's 21st century, let alone the Gobi in Qinghai in the early 1980s.
But Dr. Wang can perform a simple appendicitis surgery, which is not a major operation. For blind couples who are flirting with cotton, barefoot doctors are also doctors, and they can save people.
Whether Wang Tianlai was Wang Huayun is still to be discussed, because there is also overseas relations in Wang Huayun's resume. Wang Huayun's first pot of gold was to inherit overseas heritage and then return to China to invest, and to develop to the present level. Liu Kunlun seriously suspected that he was the pseudonym Wang Tianlai's mandatory of artificial insemination as the product of Guanyin for sending his son. Therefore, as a father, Wang Huayun had no feelings for this "illegitimate son". Perhaps he had many children who spread it outside in this way.
As for the origin of the fourth sister, it is even more difficult to check. No one will remember the origin of an abandoned baby more than 20 years ago. Generally speaking, Liu Kunlun's trip was a waste of time and he did not find any valuable clues. He decided to return and take the opportunity to go to Sichuan-Tibet online to see his elder sister's family.
It is not easy to start from Delingha and go to a national highway 318 on the Sichuan-Tibet Line. Someone in the local area gave Liu Kunlun advice and planned two routes for him. He either went to Golmud to Nagqu or walked back to Changdu, and he could still reach National Highway 318. However, National Highway 109 leading to Nagqu has not been repaired yet, and the old road is bumpy, and after passing Golmud, it is easy to get to the plateau at an altitude of 5,000 meters. Most people can't stand it.
Liu Kunlun decided to take the Golmudna curve route because there was a place called Kunlun Pass on the road, and he wanted to go and see it. After replenishing supplies and maintaining the vehicles, he prepared to set off. Delingha is a holy place for literary and youths. It is also an important transit hub for the north and south of Xinjiang to Tibet, so a large number of travelers gathered, including self-driving tours, bicycles and even hiking. Liu Kunlun's behavior of being disabled and strong will was admired by them. Many people were willing to walk with him, so there was also a way to take care of him.
Because the back seat of the Jetta was full of things, Liu Kunlun could only choose one fellow traveler. He did not choose the literary and artistic young women who seemed to be in urgent need of help, but chose a young man who traveled to Tibet on a bicycle. Only strong and powerful men could help in critical moments. After all, he was a disabled person.
The young man named Ji Yuqian. After graduating from a prestigious university, he went to study abroad at an Ivy League university. After returning to China, he started a business and was worth a lot of money. However, he still chose to take vacation trips during the rising stage of his career. He hoped to gain strength and inspiration in the dialogue with nature.
Ji Yugan's bicycle was placed on the roof rack of the Jetta bike. The two embarked on a journey, crossing the Qaidam Basin and crossing the Qaidam River. The area of the entire basin was as surging as a province in the mainland. The surface was as vicissitudes as an alien planet. From time to time, an unknown small lake appeared. The lake water was strangely green. The knowledgeable Ji Yugan said that this was because the lake water contained a lot of minerals. When he got off the car and walked to the lake, the depth of the lake was unfathomable, and there were strange salt flowers on the lakeside.
"Do you think there will be dragons in this water?" Liu Kunlun asked seriously.
"It shouldn't be. It's difficult for organisms to survive in this pH water. Perhaps there will be organisms we have never seen in the waters of plateau lakes in the Ali area." Ji Yugan also explained very seriously.
The two set up tents in the desert and used a card stove to make coffee and noodles. Ji Yugan talked about his great idea. His goal was to install implantable portable computers for people all over the world, to have holographic video calls anytime, anywhere, transfer money and shopping, and even use wearable devices for long-distance interaction.
"For example, where we are here, without any cell phone signal, we can rely on satellite signals to talk to anyone in any corner of the world. Holographic equipment can create any scene. Imagine that there is a warm fireplace and carpet around, the table is fragrant with coffee, and opposite you are your lover and children, you are chatting, but in fact she is in her office in Shanghai, and you, on the desolate roads in the Qaidam Basin, technology changes life, man."
Ji Yugan was so happy that Liu Kunlun thought it was a fantasy, but chatting with travelers who met by chance on the wasteland is a kind of fate, so why bother to care about the content?
After crossing the Qaidam Basin, they arrived in Golmud, which is also a well-known plateau city. The two of them took a break and reached the Kunlun Pass for more than 100 kilometers south. The towering Kunlun was majestic and full of snow-capped peaks. People's spirits were different. Thinking of the flies, grudges, love and hatred in the city, Liu Kunlun felt that it was nothing important.
In front of the stone tablet at the Yamaguchi, Ji Yugan took out a Canon 5D SLR camera and took a photo of Liu Kunlun, then set up a tripod to take a group photo. The altitude here is close to 5,000 meters, and the altitude sickness is obvious. Even cars start to have asthma, and you have to use a pressure cooker to cook.
After passing Kunlun Mountain Pass, one further south is Wudaoliang. This is an important long-distance relay station on the Qinghai-Tibet Line. The highway passes through the town, with restaurants and car repair shops on both sides. More than a dozen houses are located in the snow and ice. The outside world is still full of autumn. It is already cold and the temperature is low.
Ji Yugan said goodbye to Liu Kunlun here. He wanted to start the bicycle itinerary from here. What he pursued was hardship and hardship. Before leaving, the two hugged each other and gave each other gifts. Liu Kunlun gave one of his down vests, while Ji Yugan left Liu Kunlun three business cards, saying that when you are in trouble, take out one, and I will naturally come to help you.
Liu Kunlun set out alone, in Nagqu. He drove alone on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Listening to music, the surrounding majestic scenery will make people empty themselves, and then deeply think about the future of the earth, sighing about the insignificance of human beings. As the sky is getting dark, the wind is blowing, and the wind is so strong that the sand is so strong that it cannot see the way forward. Suddenly, white smoke comes out of the car engine. I don’t know when the water tank breaks and the engine breaks down.
Liu Kunlun also had six bottles of water on his car, which would be enough to drink if there was no accident. However, these six bottles of water were not enough to fill the car water tank, especially a leaking water tank. He climbed out of the car, opened the wheelchair, and tried to repair the car by himself, but the wind was too strong and he could hardly see anything. He could only go back to the car to avoid it. While trying to open the car door, a strong wind blew him straight from the wheelchair. After falling a few falls, he couldn't tell the direction. The wind was too strong and the visibility was extremely low. He dared not move around and could only lie on the ground and prayed for the wind to stop early.
When the wind stopped, it was already dark, the scenery changed drastically under the moonlight, the road disappeared, and the Jetta was gone. Liu Kunlun had never been so afraid. The ever-changing and mysterious nature made him at a loss. His strong desire to survive made him feel unwilling to die here. He tried to identify the direction of the stars and the moon, but the sky was pitch black, without any reference, and there was no snow-capped mountains and Gobi. Only the plateau meadow under him was truly touchable.
I don't know how long it took, but Liu Kunlun saw that there seemed to be lights in the distance. He looked into the distance and judged that it was a Lama Temple. So he climbed over with energy. He didn't have a watch and didn't know how long it had passed. He crawled until his mouth was dry and exhausted. However, the Lama Temple was still as invisible and invisible as a mirror of the water moon.
Liu Kunlun fell into a coma. When he woke up, it was bright and he could see the snow-capped mountains and Gobi again. However, he still didn't know where the road and the car were. He knew that he had lost his way and climbed out in a trance. He couldn't continue to go deep into the desert now. He had to find the road, otherwise he would not have a place to die.
He calculated his crawling speed. Even if he had been walking all night, he couldn't go far. He calmed down a little, trying to attract the attention of vehicles on the road by shouting, but no one came to save him even if he shouted. Then another day passed, and the sky began to smash hail as big as an egg. Liu Kunlun, who was hungry and cold, felt that he could not hold on.
Death in Kunlun Mountain can be considered a place to die. Today is September 20th, and it is my death day. This is Liu Kunlun's last remnant thought.
...
The surroundings were extremely warm and slightly bumpy. Liu Kunlun opened his eyes and found himself lying in the back seat of a car. It was obviously a military truck. Because the driver was wearing camouflage uniforms and had the rank of a first-class non-commissioned officer on his shoulders, Daolang's singing was heard in the car, and the driver hummed the first snow in 2002 in a low voice.
Liu Kunlun climbed up and looked out of the car. There was still a monotonous and majestic scenery of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. He understood that he had been saved and his life-saving benefactor was this soldier.
The soldier saw Liu Kunlun wake up from the rearview mirror and grinned: "You wake up, drink water, there is a kettle on hand."
When Liu Kunlun saw the kettle, he quickly opened the lid and drank it all. Unexpectedly, the kettle contained hot rice wine, which almost choked him to death.
"Drink it, it's warming your stomach." The soldier laughed, "I also put rock sugar and plum blossoms, it's a bargain."
Liu Kunlun said: "Thank you for saving me. By the way, where did you see me? Where is my car?"
"You lie on the side of the road and I will pick you up. Car? What car?" said the soldier.
"My car, a white Jetta, the water tank was broken, and the wind blew again. I went to repair the car and was blown away by the wind. It was at least a few hundred meters away from the highway. How could it be on the side of the road?" Liu Kunlun was very puzzled.
"Can I still lie to you?" said the soldier, and a group of yaks passed by, and the military card stopped.
"That's strange..." Liu Kunlun suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, what day is today?"
"September 29, what's wrong?"
Liu Kunlun was stunned. He was actually unconscious and was discovered after nine geniuses.
"Then... where is this?" Liu Kunlun only realized that the scenery outside the car seemed to be slightly different from what he had seen before. It became more green and there was a rumbling sound of water.
"This is in Linzhi." said the soldier.
