    The Pamir Plateau is called the "Roof of the World" by the geological community, and its formation is the result of the Himalayan movement.  Geologically speaking, this area was still a vast ocean with huge waves 400 to 500 million years ago. During the Ordovician period 280 million years ago, the geological structure underwent tremendous changes, the ocean retreated, and the orogeny process began.

    Due to the movement of the earth's plates, the drift of the Pacific and Indian Ocean plates and the violent collision of the Eurasian and Indian plates, the Gangtis Mountains and the Himalayas rose rapidly.  Eighty million years ago, the Himalayas gradually took shape, forming what is now the "roof of the world" plateau mountainous landscape.

    It is precisely because of this that many majestic mountains, snow peaks and large rivers have appeared in the Himalayas. It has also created countless interstitial spaces and developed cave systems.  Obviously, these cave systems were formed at the same time as the orogeny. The radiation area is vast and far away, and the underground space is even more complex and deep.

    Xia Jiuxi used a telescope to observe the deep valley in front of her, while admiring: "The Himalayan movement has created many famous mountains and rivers, but in the eyes of the world, there are only the Five Mountains and the Five Towns Mountains. Even more literati added fuel to the fire and wrote, 'The return of the Five Mountains will never come'."  "Look at the mountains, don't look at the mountains when you return from Huangshan", but ignore the plateau mountains in the far west."

    "You are absolutely right. There is Kunlun, the ancestor of mountains, which stretches for 2,500 kilometers. It is the Dragon Vein Ancestral Mountain!" Liu Wenjun lamented beside him: "And the northwest of Kunlun is the plateau we are standing on. It was called Buzhou Mountain in ancient times.  The mythical story of Gonggong's anger at Buzhou Mountain happened here. Emperor Mu of the Western Zhou Dynasty visited Buzhou Mountain on his way to pay homage to the Queen Mother of the West. He encountered Buzhou Mountain on the road and found that it was covered with lush green onions. He asked the accompanying ministers where this place was? The minister saw green onions everywhere.  So I told him it was Green Ridge, but we walked hundreds of kilometers and didn¡¯t even see a single green onion!¡±

    Xia Jiuxi put down the telescope and thought for a moment: "There is no news about Chu Nanfei's team?"

    Liu Wenjun was stunned and shook his head.  I wanted to show off my talents and knowledge in front of Vice President Xia, to show off his erudite and versatile historical knowledge, so as to win over the relationship with the leader, but the clinker suddenly realized that something was wrong with Lao Xia's face.  The words that reached his lips were swallowed back alive.

    "Have a small meeting to summarize some of the search and rescue operations in the past two days, and study what to do next. Chu Nanfei and Benjamin, the search and rescue expert from IAG, vowed to gather here, and the second supply depot was also built here.  Here, but what¡¯s the truth?¡± Xia Jiuxi handed the binoculars to Liu Wenjun: ¡°The truth is that we have reached a dead end, and the first group is like a yellow crane!¡±

    It is only now that the search and rescue operation has been carried out that it is discovered that this is an impossible task. The reason is the wrong tactical choice. Perhaps the search and rescue plan proposed by Chu Nanfei was the optimal one.  But things have reached this point and cannot be changed, let alone made anew.

    This is the so-called "one mistake leads to eternal hatred". At first, Chu Nanfei did not agree to split the troops into two groups to carry out search and rescue, because there would definitely be a situation where they could not take care of each other. If it was determined that the advance team was taking the northern route, he would concentrate all his energy on exploring.  Instead of being afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back, choose a more compromise approach.

    Chu Nanfei also disagreed with the "leapfrog" strategy. He believed that the purpose of this trip was to search and rescue the advance team, not a scientific investigation. Therefore, it must be light and simple, and use the forward base and the temporary engineering base as the basis to conduct an assault.  method for search and rescue.  They were all rejected by Xia Jiuxi and Benjamin back then, so they finally chose Benjamin's plan.

    The reason given by Xia Jiuxi seems very rational: Benjamin is a senior search and rescue expert at IAG, and the plan he proposed should be the most authoritative.  However, everyone has ignored the action principle of "concrete analysis of specific circumstances" and has been superstitious to foreign experts, thus creating the current complicated and passive situation.

    Now that I heard it, I feel sad and regretful, but it doesn¡¯t help.

    "Lao Xia, we have arrived at the target location. Where is Duliba Cave?" Lu Lin opened the map and said anxiously: "According to the information provided by this engineer map, this is the place, but I only saw the canyon without any signs.  According to the physical evidence, no supply base for the Corps of Engineers has been found.¡±

    The fact is that since the loss of contact with the Nanfei team, everyone has been worried that the first team will follow the same path as the scientific expedition advance team. Now it seems that it is really a prophecy.  But no one was willing to mention this matter in front of Vice President Xia, because he was the decision-maker of the search and rescue plan and the commander-in-chief of the joint scientific expedition.

    Just when the four old bloodstains from the Academy of Sciences were taking advantage of their break time to discuss the next step of action, "Little Pepper" was pestering Shen Yingxiong to climb to the top of a nearby mountain that was not too high. He wanted to "see all the small mountains at a glance", but was  Lao Shen ridiculed him as "sour"!  The two people bumped into each other all the way, just like two enemies, and were highly regarded by those old scholars.?? and the thorn-headed Lu Dingkun, they are both life and death brothers from the 3rd Special Service Squadron. When they saw this situation, they immediately went crazy!

    This is called the misfortune that never comes alone. The search and rescue team reached a dead end. The way forward was blocked by a deep canyon, and there was no way to retreat. But at this moment, such a big accident happened, leaving Xia Jiuxi and several old scholars at a loss.

    Biaozi threw the climbing rope weighing more than 30 kilograms on the ground. Xiang Yong chose the support point and tied the rope firmly to the stone. Before Lu Dingkun could grab the rope, Shen Yingxiong clicked the safety buckle.  He tied it around his waist and gestured to several team members: "I'll go down and explore first!"

    "Captain Shen, let me do it!" Lu Dingkun was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and his voice changed.

    They have performed special missions more than once, especially the Battle of Southern Sichuan, which made the soldiers of the Third Special Service Squadron become brothers who share life and death.  Lu Zhongtian was still the squadron leader at that time, and his accident affected everyone's hearts.  Shen Yingxiong glared at Lu Dingkun without saying a word: "Listen to my news, don't be anxious, you will have a chance to come down!"

    At this time, Zhou Fanglin rushed over panting and tied the first aid kit to Shen Yingxiong's waist: "Be careful, the situation down there is very complicated!"

    Old Shen was short of breath and his face was red from holding back. He grabbed the button of the downhill machine and carefully moved his feet. After choosing a foothold, he swung his body backwards and disappeared from everyone's sight in a moment.

    The mountain wind is howling and the air-conditioning is overwhelming!  Just when Shen Yingxiong fell less than ten meters, he felt a strong chill blowing up from below. He turned around to observe the surrounding environment, and found that he was in an abyss of cracks in the earth, and the mountain was cut off like a knife and an axe.  But such a sudden change in the landform cannot be found from above. No wonder Lao Lu missed it!

    The ground was narrow and it was difficult for Shen Yingxiong to descend calmly. He could only jump down after choosing a foothold. Just as Lao Shen was concentrating on finding a foothold, he suddenly discovered that the rocks on the cliff were as sharp as a sharp edge. It was really scary.  A jump.  After looking carefully, I can see that the shale on the cliff has been eroded by the wind like a knife. No wonder the tight safety rope was cut off.

    Shen Yingxiong simply relaxed his muscles and let his legs droop naturally. After looking at the obstacles below, he immediately released the safety buckle and descended quickly, trying to minimize the friction between the rope and the cliff. After a few minutes, the body fell to a stable point, and then fell again.  It was a vertical descent, passing over a boulder like an eagle's beak, and then hit the ground with a "plop". The pain made Old Shen grimace and his bones seemed to fall apart.

    Looking at the top of the cliff, it is more than a hundred meters high. The rappelling just now was almost all done in the air. If the rappelling was done according to the previous jump, the rope would fall if it was worn out.  Fall into the canyon.

    Just when Shen Yingxiong was thinking wildly, he suddenly found a vague "shadow" kneeling on the cliff more than ten meters across. Lao Lu was stroking the cave wall and sitting with some strange movements. He didn't seem to notice that he was "massive" just now.  "Appearance is average.

    "How is Lao Lu? Are you not injured?" Shen Yingxiong removed the safety buckle and blew a whistle to tell the people above that the descent had been successful.

    The distance of more than ten meters, the blood stains every step of the way, is shocking!

    Shen Yingxiong rushed to Lu Zhongtian in a few steps, only to find that his mountaineering clothes had been scratched to pieces, his face was dripping with blood, and his hands were scratched, but he seemed to feel no pain, staring blankly at the dim and dark front.  Deep cave: "Old Shen, this place is artificially carved"

    "Fuck, hurry up and bandage the wound!" Shen Yingxiong hurriedly opened the first aid kit and bandaged Lu Zhongtian. The flaring flesh and pale bones made people feel pain just by looking at it.

    Lu Zhongtian¡¯s forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his face was red from suppressing it. He gritted his teeth and wiped the blood on his face: ¡°Inform the search and rescue team to descend quickly!¡± (Remember this website¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
