Dreamland Guide - Chapter 692
They returned to Anchorage for a break.
It is not easy to climb Mount Denali. That is the highest mountain in North America. The altitude exceeds 6000 meters.
Denali, in Indian, means house of the sun.
The Indians believe that the highest peak of Mount Denali is the home of the sun.
For a long time, Mount Denali was called Mount McKinley. Therefore, Huang Liang was very unfamiliar when he heard the name Denali, but when he talked about McKinley, he remembered that it was the president. The name of this mountain was once named after the president. It was not until 2015 that the original Indian tribe’s name was officially restored.
Liang has never climbed a mountain. He watched a movie about climbing Mount Everest a few years ago. If it weren’t for something called national honor, it would be hard to imagine how those people accomplished the final feat. He knows that real mountaineering will only be more difficult than in the movie.
Hong Kui told Huang Liang that Denali Mountain is one of the most difficult peaks in the world to climb, not to mention that it is winter. No one has ever climbed the summit in this season.
Huang Liang asked him: “Then can we do it?”
Hong Kui said: “Yes.”
Huang Liang asked him why he could.
Hong Kui suddenly laughed mysteriously, jokingly: “Because we are the chosen sons of heaven.”
Huang Liang said: “According to the reminder of the dream, that thing should only shine when a total lunar eclipse occurs. If there is no total lunar eclipse, we can’t find it at all.”
Hong Kui said: “I have found someone to check it. We are very lucky. There will be a total lunar eclipse in ten days. Alaska just happens to be able to see the whole process of the total lunar eclipse. Unfortunately, the weather forecast shows that Alaska during that time. There is likely to be a snowstorm in the central and southern regions. In other words, we only have a week or so to prepare, and then two amateur climbers will challenge one of the most difficult peaks in the world in winter.”
Huang Liang was stunned for a long time, then smiled bitterly, “Sure enough, he is the chosen son of heaven.”
Their rest period in Anchorage is too short to have time to receive professional training, but they have a method similar to cheating, which is to practice in a dream.
They first found all kinds of information about Denali, especially pictures and videos. Then, with the strong financial support of the Wolf family, they sent helicopters and drones to all directions along Mount Denali. A lot of investigations were carried out, and when all these materials were copied into the dreamland, just like a vr game, a close-to-real Denali Mountain lay in front of them.
They tried countless times in their dreams, over and over again, climbing up the snow **** and advancing **** the ice. They experienced the thin air, the pressure on the heart and lungs. The pressure formed between the hot sun overhead and the cold snow under their feet squashed them just a little bit, and they were like walking in a narrow gap.
In less than a week, they had undergone several years of training in their dreams. The function of the body also gradually changes with the experience of consciousness.
Huang Liang felt that his muscles were becoming stronger, and once his toes even froze, as if he had been walking in the snow for three days and three nights.
Before the official departure, Hong Kui found a mountain guide from the local Indian tribe, while Enruk stayed at the bottom of the mountain to take care of it.
The Indian is obviously reluctant, because no one wants to go up the mountain in this season, which is tantamount to death.
“We don’t need to climb to the top.” Hong Kui said. ,
The Indian still shook his head: “That’s still too dangerous. Who knows when the mountain **** will get angry? Storms, avalanches, and ice cracks can happen at any time. Even if you just walk halfway up the mountain, danger is everywhere.”
Huang Liang knew that the Indians were right. No matter how they practiced in their dreams, they couldn’t simulate the ever-changing weather environment on Mount Denali. They just created a mountain in their dreams exactly like reality, but they couldn’t predict the future.
Hong Kui glanced at Enluk, Enluk knew immediately, and took out a large stack of dollars and placed it in front of the Indians. That’s probably an income he won’t have in 10 years.
The eyes of the Indians showed some brilliance, but they were still not bright enough compared to the snow outside the house. His face was full of hesitation.
At this time, the door of the back room opened, and his wife walked out holding the baby and told everyone that it was time to eat. The child lay on the woman’s shoulder, eyes wide open, looking curiously at a stranger in the room.
Seeing his wife and children, the Indians’ faces began to change like the weather in Alaska. His expression gradually became firm, but his eyes were full of tenderness.
Hong Kui added: “This is just a deposit. If everything goes well and you find what we want, you will receive 10 times the final payment. Don’t worry, even if we have an accident, the money will still be received. Enluk will Give it to your family.”
For the sake of a lot of dollars, the Indian finally nodded in agreement.
9 Alaskan Malamutes accompanied them up the mountain.
The first half of the uphill journey went smoothly. Because they have demonstrated countless times in their dreams, they probably also know the direction of climbing.
The Indian guide knew every danger on this mountain, where the snow was empty, where there were cracks, and where there were bear traps. He knew exactly where.
After climbing a small peak, Huang Liang saw exactly the same scene as he saw in his dream on the Harding Icefield-two huge mountain peaks, suddenly rising from a stretch of snow-capped mountains, towering into the clouds, sunlight Shining on the snow that never melts all year round, it reflects a strange light.
“It’s there! It’s there!” Huang Liang exclaimed with some excitement.
“Can you determine the approximate direction?” Hong Kui asked, “At least you need to know which mountain it is. The total lunar eclipse is very short, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get to the place it suggests.”
Huang Liang shook his head and said, “I can’t determine which mountain peak it was. At that time, the fog on the mountain was thick, and it was the white wolf who took me over.”
The Indian guide felt very strange and asked, “What are you talking about? What white wolf? Have you been here before?”
Huang Liang was already familiar with him, and joked: “I did come, but in a dream, God brought me here.”
The guide was very surprised. He didn’t seem to believe that God would bring a alien to the sacred mountain of the Indians, but he didn’t say much, because at this time, the mountain was foggy.
“The storm is coming,” said the Indian, “we better go back now.”
Huang Liang looked at Hong Kui, and Hong Kui firmly looked at the distant mountain and said, “No, we will not go back. The total lunar eclipse is here tonight. We only have this chance.”
The Indian said a little angrily: “Are you crazy? The storm will kill you. What are you looking for? You will anger the gods like this! How can people fight against God?”
Huang Liang looked at the pale sky and said, “We are fighting against God.”
“What?” The Indian said that he didn’t understand ~www.mtlnovel.com~ the wind was blowing. The wind was whizzing, and it was scraping on people’s faces like a knife.
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, mixed with snow particles, ice particles, and the roar of the mountain god.
The fog is getting thicker. The sun is blocked, and the sight of people is blocked.
“Go back!” The Indian’s voice was trembling, almost pleading.
The 9 Alaskan dogs he brought with him also murmured and shivered. But obviously, they are not afraid of the storm.
At this time, there was a long howl in the thick fog.
Huang Liang saw the shadow of the white wolf, looming in the fog in front of him.
The whistling sound was endless, and at the same time, Huang Liang suddenly heard a strange sound of “Qua”.
He suddenly raised his head and saw a black dot flashing in the clouds, and then suddenly disappeared.
