"No one is allowed to speak, and no one is even allowed to fart." The fat man said to us in an extremely soft voice: "Everyone, look for any protruding rocks or ice crevices nearby. We are going to be in trouble."

"It's impossible." Lang Feng was dumbfounded: "I calculated the weight correctly..."

Monk Hua covered Lang Feng's mouth, indicating that he would say something later. Several people were sweating coldly, looking at the top of their heads while tiptoeing back on their equipment, looking around for a place to take refuge. The snow layer here is not thick. Even if there is an avalanche, it will only collapse in a small area. But the place where we stand is really not good. It is too close to the fracture surface. The snow rushes down and it is easy for us to be wrapped up. Below It was also an extremely high steep slope, with no place to escape.

The best way at this time is, as the fat man said, to find a protruding rock and hide under it, or find an ice crevice. But this should be from the movie "Vertical Limit". I don't know the facts. does not work.

The piece of bare rock we were on was too flat, and the snow would still hit us directly if we hid under it. The fat man pointed to the huge walnut-like stone next to it. There was an angle between the bottom and the mountain rock. It should be relatively close. suitable.

The snow slope between us and the mountain rock has all disappeared, and what is left is the ice surface of the glacier, which is extremely slippery. There is no time to change skates at this time, so just go on. The fat man tied the rope around his waist and gave one end to us, then he bit it and stepped on the ice.

One step, two steps, three steps. Every time I took a step, it was like stepping on an egg. I was waiting for the "click" sound of the egg yolk splashing. But Fatty always made people admire him from time to time. After three steps, he had climbed steadily to the stone on the opposite side. He grabbed the rope around his waist, looked above his head, and waved us over.

A few of us pulled the rope, first Pan Zi and Men You Ping, then Lang Feng who was carrying Chen Pi Asi, then Ye Cheng who was carrying Shun Zi, and I was last. Seeing that they all passed safely, I felt a lot more at ease. At this time, snow chunks as big as watermelons were falling from the top, and the snow crack could no longer support it. The fat man waved me to hurry up.

I patted my face, tied the other end of the rope around my waist, then stepped on the first foot and stood firm.

My balance has been poor since I was a child, and I had to fall and get bruises to learn everything about skating and riding. At this time, I became even more panicked. I felt as if the ice under my feet might disappear at any time. Involuntarily, my feet began to tremble.

The fat man knew at a glance that I was the most difficult thing to deal with.

He whispered: "Don't think so much, it's only two steps, you can just jump over."

I looked at the distance between the fat man and me. Sure enough, as long as you can exert your full strength, you can definitely jump over it. As soon as I gritted my teeth, I twisted my waist and tried to jump up.

But what I didn't expect was that when I was exerting my strength, my feet suddenly sank. The piece of ice I stepped on suddenly broke because there were too many people stepping on it. My feet slipped on the slope, and then my whole body slid down.

I grabbed my hands and feet, but there was no place on the ice to put my strength on. Suddenly I fell directly until the rope tightened and hung on the ice cliff. I heard the click of the carabiner buckle. When I lowered my head, I saw that the clamp had opened. , Seeing that the body is about to be decoupled.

I cursed in my heart, this damn Xibei must have been produced on a voluntary basis!

The fat man almost pulled me off the stone as soon as I pulled him. Fortunately, Pan Zi grabbed his waistband and a few people held him back. They pulled the rope hard and pulled me up.

But every time I pulled, the rope would loosen up. I was so anxious that I wanted to push my feet somewhere and fasten the buckle again, but the ice was so slippery that I only stepped on it for a few seconds before sliding off. I couldn't use my strength at all.

Seeing that the button was about to come off, in desperation, I pulled out the mountaineering pick and knocked it hard on the ice cliff, locking it in. Then I stepped on my left foot and found a place that I could support. I quickly lowered my head and replaced the carabiner. Before I could secure it, a strange vibration suddenly came from the top of my head.

I looked up and saw a few people above looking at me like idiots. Before I could react what was going on, in an instant, a white snow mist suddenly exploded into the air, almost blocking my entire field of vision.

There's an avalanche!

There was no scream, no time to be surprised. At that moment, I didn’t know what I was thinking. I only heard the fat man yelling from the side: "Grab the mountaineering pickaxe! Stick to the ice!" Then suddenly everything around me was It was completely dark, and my body sank suddenly. It seemed that a dozen people suddenly grabbed all my clothes and pulled them down. The rope around my waist was immediately buckled into my flesh, and then a large amount of snow breath choked me. of lungs.

Then, I fell into chaos, with huge momentum hitting every part of my body. I couldn't even lift my head. Soon my throat began to tighten, and an extreme feeling of suffocation came from my lungs. I just felt like I was thrown into a chestnut roasting machine. Countless cold things piled up on me from all directions and hit me. For a moment, my nose and mouth were filled with the smell of snow foam.

Only then did I remember that ice is an excellent shock conductor, especially extremely thick ice, which has extremely strong resonance. The pickaxe just now finally catalyzed the formation of an avalanche.

I almost wanted to slap myself, but regretting it was useless at this time. My whole body was spinning everywhere like a top. I wanted to grab the mountaineering pick, but I couldn't even feel where my hands were.

Just when my mind was confused and I didn't know what to do, suddenly, I felt the rope being lifted up, and then my body was also pulled up a little.

I was shocked. It was Fatty and the others pulling me at the other end. I immediately became hopeful. The rope could still respond, which meant that the snow from the avalanche was not very thick, and their strength could still be transmitted to me.

I hurriedly pulled at the snow flow around me and pushed my body upwards. After staggering several times, my ears suddenly roared with the pull of the rope, and my eyes lit up, and I explored the surface of the snow flow.

Fatty and the others hid under the corner of the rocks on one side. The snow flow rushed over the rocks and formed a snowfall in front of them. Everyone was safe and sound. Fatty and Lang Feng pulled the rope and saw me pulled out. They yelled and asked me, "Are you okay?"

I gasped for air and nodded. On one side, the snowy mist still filled the sky and hit me. I pulled the rope hard and started to move closer to them against the snow flow. But the force of the snow flow was so great that I couldn't stand up at all. No matter how hard I tried with my hands, I couldn't move even half an inch. The fat man had no choice but to hold me and wait for the snow flow to pass.

The avalanche came and went quickly. In less than half a minute, the snow flow poured past me, leaving only a large amount of broken snow. I looked down and saw that the entire valley below my feet was shrouded in white mist. I couldn't help but feel afraid that I was about to be swept down. How could I still be alive now?

I was pulled under the rock, and several people gasped with fear. The fat man patted me and said, "You kid is really lucky. Fortunately, this is just a collapse and there is little snow. Otherwise, not only you, but I will also have to be pulled off this time."

I didn’t know what my expression was like. My hiking cap had fallen off, my ears were red from the cold, and I couldn’t hear anything clearly. I had no choice but to pat him and turn to look at the surface of the glacier on one side.

The entire snow slope has poured down to the bottom of the valley, and a large piece of huge steep-slope glacier is exposed in front of us. From time to time, broken snow rolls down from the top, reminding us that there is still the danger of a second avalanche.

The surface of the glacier is made up of snow ice formed by the pressure under the snow layer for thousands of years, which is what we often call "gravity ice". This kind of ice is naturally formed. In high-altitude mountainous areas, it will wrap around the entire mountain and form glaciers. It is generally found on snow-capped mountains. It is between the snow layer and the mountain and is not too thick. There is also a lot of broken snow on top of the ice.

Except for Fatty, we have never seen an actual glacier. In the snow-capped mountain valley, it is really amazing to see such a huge ice cliff exposed. Under the shining of the setting sun, it looks like a giant carved super soap. It was such a shocking thing that we all went crazy when we saw it.

Ye Cheng murmured to the side: "Lang Da's shot is not without results."

After watching for a moment, everyone gradually came to their senses. Monk Hua lit up several flashlights and shined them into the ice, trying to find traces of the tomb. The inside is chaotic and bottomless. The average snow mountain glacier is almost only ten to twenty meters thick. The thickness of this glacier seems a bit abnormal.

The fat man's eyes were very poisonous. At this time, he suddenly let out a sound and seemed to have discovered something. He grabbed the flashlight from Monk Hua and took a photo.

We struggled to follow his flashlight, and through the weak flashlight light, I saw that in the direction the fat man was shining, deep in the dark green translucent glacier, there was a huge looming shadow, almost It occupies half of the ice cliff and looks like a curled-up baby with a big head.
