At almost eleven o'clock in the evening, the three cars finally arrived at Shuanghu after nearly eleven hours of arduous trek.

It was late at night, and Lao Liu couldn't see how big the county town was, but he heard from the second uncle that Shuanghu was a very small county town.

Even on the main road in the county town, there are not many street lights on it.

"Why don't the street lights turn on here at night? It's so dark and scary." Chu Qian said stumbled.

Li Junyi smiled and said, "It's okay now. If it were a few years ago, there would be almost no lights here at night. Maybe you don't know yet? Even now, Shuanghu has not connected to the national power grid. The electricity used here is photovoltaic power generation. The altitude here is high, and the winter is very long every year. Once winter comes, the sunshine time will be insufficient, and photovoltaic power generation will be greatly restricted, so the county often has power outages and power limits. It is already very good to turn on a few street lights now."

"My God, there is no electricity here yet?" Chu Qian was surprised.

"Well, the power is not on yet, but it's too soon. I heard that the State Grid has set up the transmission lines and will be powered on the county town before New Year's Day at the latest. By that time, the county town will not be short of electricity."

Although Lao Liu knew that Shuanghu had not yet powered on, it was the first time he had encountered such difficult conditions in a serious county town.

However, along the way, Lao Liu has a deep understanding of the harsh natural conditions of Shuanghu. Half a century ago, it was a serious no-man's land. It is already a miracle that it can establish a county town in such a high altitude area.

The highest altitude counties in the world are not casually mentioned. The average altitude is more than 5,000 meters, which is already a truly "forbidden zone for life". But in such an environment, a county town is built so hard. How high can you have any requirements for it?

Li Junyi made a phone call, drove around the county town for several turns, and came to a hotel called "Jiangnan Hotel".

This hotel is on the second floor of a row of two-story buildings. The first floor is full of stores. The hotel has only one door on the first floor, and it is the entrance and the registration place.

When Lao Liu and the others arrived, someone was standing at the door wearing a bread suit.

"Laomi, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Li Junyi got out of the car and shook hands and greeted the man in his thirties and almost forty years old. "I will introduce you to a few friends, all of whom are colleagues from the Blue Sky Rescue Team in Sunac City. Uh, Lao Cai doesn't need to introduce him, right?"

The man nodded with a smile and shook hands with Lao Cai. Obviously? The two of them met before, and their relationship looked pretty good.

Li Junyi said: "This is Shi Qiang and Rene Liu? Are they the executive committee member of our Sunshine City Blue Sky Rescue Team? They are also a senior member. This is Liu Mo'ang, a new member? This is Tian Peng, a reserve member. This is Chu Qian? Xiao Liu's girlfriend? This is also here to search and rescue together. This is Mi Feng, our Hei Shui people. Are you planning to set up a Blue Sky Rescue Team in Hei Shui? Lao Mi is one of the organizers."

With Li Junyi's introduction, everyone and Lao Mi shook hands with each other? They met each other.

"Let's go? Let's talk about it later. It's too cold outside." Mi Feng stomped his feet and said.

After parked the car, everyone followed Mi Feng into the Jiangnan Hotel with washing tools and other things.

The hotel is very simple, at least from Lao Liu's perspective. Mi Feng explained: "The conditions here are limited, so it would be nice to have a place to live. There are only four or five hotels in the entire county? Basically, this is the case."

Lao Liu nodded to express his understanding.

As Lao Mi said, there is no separate bathroom in the room? The bathroom is public. And there is no tap water. The hot water provided is placed in the kettle in the corridor? Other water is filled in buckets. There is no air conditioning, heating, only electric blankets? If the power outage occurs, how can electric blankets be used...

But even so? The conditions here are already very good.

Shuanghu Lake is not only short of electricity, but also lacks water!

There was also a young man named Xue Gang in Lao Mi's room, who came with Lao Mi. When Lao Mi went down to greet Li Junyi and his group, the young man had already prepared hot water to drink.

"Xiao Xue and I arrived at the search and rescue team at Heishui at around 3:00 in the afternoon. After we arrived here, we conducted a search and rescue, but there was no result. Heishui's search and rescue team used a drone, but it was not found..." Lao Mi briefly introduced the situation today.

Mi Peak is from Hei Shui. Although it is closer to Hei Shui to Shuang Lake than to Shuang Lake, because National Highway 317 has been repaired, it is faster from Hei Shui to Shuang Lake. If there is no traffic jam, they will be able to get here in eight hours.

"The search and rescue team on Hei Shui is a firefighter?" Li Junyi asked.

"Well, eight firefighters and two cars came. The search and rescue team on Shuanghu had already been dispatched this morning, and it was also the garrison here."

Lao Cai whispered: "How much trouble do these guys have caused to others for their own selfishness and wasteful national public resources!"

Li Junyi frowned and said, "Old Cai, don't say these useless things, remember our responsibilities."

Lao Cai stopped talking.

Lao Mi continued: "The origin of these people has been found out this morning. These people checked in a hotel in Bangor the night before yesterday, but there was no information about these people passing the checkpoint at the Doma Checkpoint. It is estimated that these people bypassed the checkpoint from the grassland and entered Shuanghu Lake. Moreover, they did not seem to have checked in Shuanghu Lake. None of the five hotels in Shuanghu Lake have their registration information. Shuanghu Forestry Bureau has not received an application to go to the Puruangri Glacier, and there is no information about these people when they go to the checkpoint on the Puruangri Glacier Road."

Rene Liu said: "It seems that these people have been prepared for a long time. They know that the Puruogangri Glacier is now closed and tourists are not allowed to enter. There are also checkpoints on the way, so these people have already planned the route before they get in."

Shi Qiang said with certainty: "There must be an acquaintance leading the way, otherwise they would not have bypassed the checkpoint so accurately."

Several people nodded together, and Lao Mi said: "The local and Heishui search and rescue teams judged this way. But it is precisely because these people did not leave any information that we don't know which direction they went. What if they didn't go to the Puruangri Glacier but went to Kokoxili further north?"

Li Junyi shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. The first is that time is not allowed. They checked in Bangor the night before yesterday, and the fastest was that they arrived at Shuanghu Lake at noon yesterday. Including the time for eating and sleeping, they couldn't get to Kokoxili, north of the Tanggula Mountain. By the way, did they call for help this morning not say where they were?"

"No, because they don't know where they are. They just say that there are snow-capped mountains around..."

Everyone was in silence, this is a nonsense message...

...

On this blue planet, there is currently only one county with an average altitude of more than 5,000 meters, that is Shuanghu.

At 8:40 in the morning, the sun had just emerged from the mountains in the east, but at this time, the entire county town was still silent.

But Lao Liu and the others had already gotten up early.

I didn't sleep well last night. The main reason was that it was too cold. Even if I didn't take off my clothes and covered my own duvet, I was still very cold.

Moreover, Lao Liu and Chu Qian's wish to sleep in the same house was dashed again, and this time it was Rene Liu who was disrupting the situation.

This woman not only took Chu Qian away, but also kicked his husband to Lao Liu...

However, because he was worried that Chu Qian would be cold, Old Liu asked Chu Qian to lead the white lion over. With the white lion around, it would be like a small stove lying beside him.

Jiaozi slept with Lao Liu, Shi Qiang, Li Junyi and Tian Peng. The four of them slept with four people last night, while Lao Cai, Lao Mi and Xue Gang slept in the same room.

Although the members of the Blue Sky Rescue Team are all considered to be worthless, they pay for the money every time they come out for rescue. They should try their best to save as much as possible.

After washing up with the hot water provided by the hotel, the group hurried to the county people's armed forces headquarters. The rescue team from Hei Shui lived in the barracks behind the county people's armed forces headquarters yesterday.

I found a business breakfast on Saoga Road. After a few people enjoyed a breakfast that was not very delicious but expensive, they arrived at the gate of the People's Army Department.

Before waiting for the other two search and rescue teams to come out, several smokers were smoking and complaining outside, and the target of complaining was naturally today's breakfast.

Li Junyi smiled and said, "You are content, let alone ten years ago. Even if you come here four or five years ago, you will probably all have to cry!"

"Brother Yi, it was even harder at that time than now?"

"That's for sure. When I came here in 1920, there was only one gas station, a hotel and two restaurants in the whole county. I remember when I came here, my friend and I went to a restaurant for dinner. Oh, a cucumber shot of sixty-eight, and a cold peanut served as sixty-eight. If I wanted a fried egg with tomatoes, eighty..."

“So expensive?”

"Of course, you don't look at where this is?" Li Junyi curled his lips, "It's okay if the price is high. My friend and I came here from afar, so we had to eat hot rice and drink some wine to relieve our fatigue. So my buddy told the boss, "Come and take a cucumber, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and then stir-fried beef with peppers, but what do you think?"

Several people stretched their necks to look at Li Junyi.

"The boss said arrogantly, no! Now there is only wine and five-spice peanuts..."

"Ah? Is this a hotel open?" Chu Qian was surprised.

"Haha, it's really not to blame the owner of the hotel. At that time, almost all the supplies here were transported from outside, and vegetables were only replenished once a week. When we came here that time, five days had passed since the last replenishment. Where could there be any ingredients for you to cook for food?"

Old Cai patted Li Junyi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Li, when you and Photon came here, you could only think of nothing?"

The few people burst into laughter together, and Li Junyi pointed at Lao Cai and laughed.

"So, the situation is much better now than a few years ago. At least you can have a hot rice for you to eat, but you won't be thinking about eating it!"

Several people laughed again.

While talking and laughing, four Changfeng cheetahs with military signs drove out of the gate of the county people's armed forces. A second lieutenant officer got out of the car and shook hands with Mi Feng. Mi Feng introduced Li Junyi and the others to the officer, which immediately made the second lieutenant officer named Zhang smile on his face.

"Thank you for participating in this search and rescue operation. With your help, we have hope to find the seven missing people as soon as possible. Let's go, let's set off now. Captain Mi and Captain Li, I hope you can get into my car and we will discuss how to launch a search and rescue on the road."

Mi Feng and Li Junyi got into the car of the Second Lieutenant Zhang. Two young soldiers got out of the car, one got into Mi Feng's car and the other got into Lao Liu's car.

As soon as the young soldier got into the car, he was shocked by the white lion standing in the back seat, "Oh, what kind of dog is this? It's so big?" He knew that he was from Bashu when he heard his accent.

"Haha, don't worry, this is my white lion, a snow mastiff, very sensible." Chu Qian said to comfort the little soldier.

When the little soldier saw that there was a big beauty sitting in the back seat of the car, his face turned red.

Old Liu reached out his hand, and the little soldier was stunned for a moment, but he shook hands with Old Liu, but he didn't dare to look at Chu Qian, maybe he was worried that Chu Qian would shake hands with him too.

Old Liu smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, my wife won't eat people. Well, my name is Liu Mo'ang, I'm very happy to know you. This is my girlfriend Chu Qian."

The little soldier nodded, "My name is Liu Hongguang, I'm very happy to know you."

"Oh, our brothers were still a family five hundred years ago." Old Liu said with a smile while starting the car.

The little soldier was no longer nervous and nodded with a smile.

Lao Liu controlled the car and followed the Ford Raptor in Lao Cai's front, and while driving, he asked the little soldier: "Brother, when did you come up to join the army?"

"I am a recruit this year and came to Shuanghu at the beginning of last month."

"It depends on your age of eighteen or nineteen?"

"Well, I'm 18 years old this year, and I have no hope for the college entrance examination. After graduating from high school, I signed up for the army." As I got familiar with each other, the little soldier became cheerful.

"Then are you still adapting here?" Chu Qian asked softly.

"It's okay! I felt uncomfortable for more than ten days when I first came up, but now it's completely fine."

While talking, the convoy arrived at the north side of the county town. The county town itself was not big, and the longest length from north to south was only about one kilometer.

The convoy stopped on the side of the road, and there were four Tibetans standing there on the side of the road.

The Second Lieutenant Zhang got out of the car, and the others also got out of the car. Second Lieutenant Zhang said: "We have eight cars now, so today I am going to divide into four teams to search, each team with two cars. In addition, these four Tibetans are the guides we specially found, and each team follows one guide.

In addition, today our search direction is from the area from the north of the county town to the Puruangri Glacier. Yesterday afternoon we searched for some areas, but we didn’t find anything. Today we plan to expand the search scope. Come, let me get together, let me tell you about today’s search scope.”

Seeing Erectile Zhang take out a map and put it on the front of the car, several people surrounded him.

However, Lao Liu listened to the search range pointed out by Second Lieutenant Zhang and looked at the map, and he always felt something was wrong.

Before going to bed last night, he deliberately used satellite maps to combine local maps to see the surrounding situation. Intuition, he always felt that the seven people who were missing did not seem to have lost their way around Shuanghu Lake.

Now when I see the more detailed map taken out by Second Lieutenant Zhang and his search plan, the feeling in Lao Liu's heart is even more obvious...
Chapter completed!
