Chapter 689

They returned to anchorage for a rest.

It's not easy to climb Mount Denali. It is the highest mountain in North America. More than 6000 meters above sea level.

Denali, in Indian, means home of the sun.

Indians believe that the highest peak of Mount Denali is the home of the sun.

For a long time, Denali mountain was called McKinley mountain. Therefore, Huang Liang was very strange when he heard the name Denali, but when he talked about McKinley, he remembered that it was the name of the president. The mountain was once named after the president. It was not until 2015 that the name handed down by the original Indian tribe was officially restored.

Liang has never climbed the mountain. He saw a film about climbing Mount Everest a few years ago. If it were not supported by something called national honor, it is difficult to imagine how those people would accomplish their final feat. He knew that real mountain climbing would only be more difficult than in the film.

Hong Kui told Huangliang that Denali mountain is one of the most difficult mountains to climb in the world, not to mention that it is winter. No one has ever climbed the peak in this season.

Huang Liang asked him, "can we do it?"

Hong Kui said, "yes."

Huang Liang asked him why he could.

Hong Kui suddenly smiled mysteriously and joked, "because we are the chosen children."

Huang Liang said: "according to the hint of the dream, it should glow only when the total lunar eclipse occurs. If there is no total lunar eclipse, we can't find it at all."

Hong Kui said: "I've asked someone to check. We're very lucky. There will be a total lunar eclipse in ten days. Alaska can just see the whole process of the total lunar eclipse. Unfortunately, the weather forecast shows that there is likely to be a snowstorm in central and southern Alaska at that time. That is to say, we only have about a week to prepare, and then two amateur climbers will be there To challenge one of the most difficult mountains in the world in winter. "

Huang Liang was stunned for a long time and said with a bitter smile, "it's really the son of heaven."

Their rest days in anchorage are too short to have time for professional training, but they have a method similar to cheating, that is, practicing in dreams.

They first found all kinds of Denali mountain materials, especially pictures and videos. Then, with the strong financial support of the wolf family, they sent helicopters and UAVs to conduct a large number of investigations along all directions of Denali mountain. When all these materials are copied into the dream, like a VR game, a near real Denali mountain lies across him In front of the children.

They tried countless times in their dreams, again and again, climbing up the snow slope and making difficult progress on the ice edge. They experienced the pressure of the thin air on their heart and lungs. The pressure difference between the hot sun above their heads and the cold snow under their feet flattened them. They were like walking in a narrow gap.

In less than a week, they had been trained for several years in their dreams, and their body functions gradually changed with the experience of consciousness.

Huangliang felt that his muscles were getting stronger, and once his toes were even frozen, just like walking in the snow for three days and nights.

Before the official departure, Hong Kui found a mountain guide in the local Indian tribe, while enruk stayed at the foot of the mountain to pick up.

The Indian was obviously reluctant, because no one wanted to go up the mountain in this season, which was tantamount to death.

"We don't need to climb to the summit," said Hong Kui

The Indian shook his head: "it's still too dangerous. Who knows when the mountain god will be angry? Storms, avalanches and ice cracks can happen at any time. Even if you just walk halfway up the mountain, danger is everywhere."

In any case, as like as two peas in the dream, they can not simulate the changing weather conditions in the mountains. They only create the same landscape as reality in their dreams but can not predict the future.

Hong Kui glanced at Enrique. Enrique immediately realized that he took out a large stack of dollars and put them in front of the Indians. That's probably what he won't have in 10 years.

There was some brilliance in the Indian's eyes, but it was not bright enough compared with the snow outside. His face was full of hesitation.

Then the door of the inner room opened, and his wife came out with the child in her arms and told everyone that it was time to eat. The child lay on the woman's shoulder, his eyes wide open, and looked curiously at the strangers in the room.

Seeing his wife and children, the Indian's face 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 balance. Rest assured, even if we have an accident, this money can still be received, and nruk will give it to your family."

For the sake of a lot of dollars, the Indian finally nodded and agreed.

They were accompanied by nine Alaskan sled dogs.

The first half of the climb was smooth. Because they have demonstrated it countless times in their dreams, they probably know the direction of mountaineering.

The Indian guide knew every danger on the mountain, where the snow was empty, where there were cracks, and where there were bear traps.

After climbing as like as two peas touch the sky, Huang Liang saw the same scene as he saw in the dream on Hardin's ice field. Two huge peaks, rising from a continuous snow mountain, towering into the clouds, and sunlight shining on the snow that had not changed all the year round, reflecting strange lights.

"That's it! That's it!" yelled Huang Liang excitedly.

"Can you determine the general direction?" Hong Kui asked. "At least you need to know which peak it is. The total lunar eclipse is very short. I'm afraid we won't have time to get to the place it prompts."

Huang Liang shook his head and said, "I can't determine which mountain peak it is. At that time, the fog on the mountain was very thick. The White Wolf took me there."

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."

The guide was very surprised. He didn't seem to believe that God would bring a heterogeneous man to the Indian holy mountain, but he didn't say much, because at this time, the mountain was foggy.

"A storm is coming," said the Indian. "We'd better go back now."

Huang Liang looked at Hong Kui. Hong Kui firmly looked at the mountain in the distance and said, "no, we won't go back. The total lunar eclipse is tonight. We have only one chance."

The Indian said angrily, "are you crazy? The storm will kill you. What are you looking for? You will annoy the gods! How can people fight against God?"

Huang Liang looked at the pale sky and said, "we are fighting against God."

"What?" the Indian said he didn't understand.

It's windy. The wind blew on people's faces like a knife.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, mixed with snow particles, ice particles and the roar of mountain gods.

The fog is getting thicker and thicker. It blocks the sun and people's sight.

"Go back quickly!" the Indian voice trembled and almost begged.

The nine Alaskan dogs he brought with him also whined and trembled. But obviously, they are not afraid of the storm.

At this time, a long howl came from the thick fog.

Huangliang saw the shadow of the White Wolf, looming in the fog ahead.

The howling continued, and at the same time, Huang Liang suddenly heard a strange sound of "quack".

He suddenly looked up and saw a black spot in the cloud flash and suddenly disappeared.
