The distance from the South China Sea to Tibet is nearly 4,000 kilometers.
If they had been traveling on the highway, it would have only taken two days, but the group did not try to rush the time. They traveled all the way, sometimes speeding wildly on the highway, and sometimes going down the country roads to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
After marching for a day and a night, everyone arrived in Dongchuan Province.
We didn¡¯t enter the provincial capital, but kept traveling along the Sichuan-Tibet Highway. As night approached, we stopped at a small county town.
"These two are auto soldiers who retired from the Tibetan Border Military Region. They have been running on the Tibetan border for nearly ten years. They are familiar with the roads and can deal with all kinds of situations calmly They were brought from my old man's factory."
Sitting in a beef and sheep restaurant run by Tibetans, eating roasted whole lamb and drinking weird-tasting kumiss, Mr. Kou began to introduce the two drivers who drove the Land Rover and followed closely behind the Hummer.
"My name is Song Ke, and this is my brother Liu Bin who came from one of the camps." Song Ke is a man with a smile on his face even if he doesn't smile. The two plateau red flowers on his cheeks show his honesty and simplicity. As he spoke, he and Liu Bin raised their wine glasses and paid respect to the men present.
"I don't need to say it. This person next to me is my brother Shen Peng. That old man is the top man. As for that Xiaobai brother, my sister's classmate." Even if the second young master Kou was because of the hostile looks between Mo Ling and Lin Shiyu, The words 'little white face' were hidden, but it was not difficult for Song Ke and Liu Bin to see that this 'little white face brother' was clearly an outsider.
The six grown men clinked their glasses and drank it all before waving their knives and practicing on the roasted whole lamb that was placed on the charcoal brazier.
While eating and drinking, Wang Yuyan consciously did not get involved in the circle of Kou Nan, Shen Peng, and the two eldest soldiers. He just took the camera and took out the results taken along the way, and shared it with Mo Ling, Lin Shiyu, and Long Ling'er. Laughing about some funny photos.
"Second Young Master, there are countless Tibetan Mastiffs in Tibet. Some counties have mastiff gardens that specialize in breeding and selling. The deeper you go into Tibet, some fellow villagers also have them. However, it is not easy to get pure-blooded Tibetan Mastiffs. Some mastiffs There may be some in the park, but pure-blood Tibetan Mastiffs are basically the treasures of the park. They are only used for breeding and will never be sold. Some Tibetan villagers may also have them, but in the eyes of Tibetans, pure-blood Tibetan Mastiffs are regarded as tengu. , even the living Buddha¡¯s mount, you can¡¯t buy it with money.¡±
After three rounds of drinking, Liu Bin, who had never spoken a word, became cheerful. He was from a county at the border between Dongchuan Province and Tibet. He had a much deeper understanding of Tibetan Mastiffs than Song Ke.
"I won't consider the Mastiff Park. You may be able to buy it with money, but the wildness is not enough. Those who have been pampered and pampered all year round are almost turning into pugs. Let's find a fellow villager Maybe, are there any wild Tibetan Mastiffs now?!"
As Kou Nan said, the pure-blooded Tibetan Mastiffs in the Mastiff Park are pampered all year round. Without the severe cold climate and the law of the jungle where the weak eat the strong, even if the Tibetan Mastiff is the only wild dog in the world that has not retreated, it will still Destroyed by circumstances.
"Tibetan Mastiff?!" Regarding Kou Nan's question, Liu Bin and Song Ke couldn't help but look at each other with a wry smile.
"Animals that were domesticated by humans six thousand years ago, you ask if there are wild Tibetan mastiffs? Then tell me if there are wild poodles!" Before Liu Bin and Song Ke could answer, Shen Peng started to mock. .
"Actually wild Tibetan mastiffs also exist, but their definition is just Tibetan mastiffs that do not belong to individuals. Such Tibetan mastiffs will form mastiff groups, usually wandering near tribes with large populations. Herders will often throw food to them, and they will also They can forage on their own, they can protect the people of the tribe, and they are more ferocious than the Tibetan Mastiffs in the tribe, but I don't think Er Shao would want one that bites everyone on sight, and is so thin that only skin and bones are left. In comparison to wild dogs wild Tibetan mastiffs are always not as strong as those domesticated by herdsmen."
"This" Hearing Liu Bin and Song Ke's explanations, Kou Nan couldn't help but blush. He kept talking about opening a mastiff park, but in the end, he didn't even understand some basic knowledge. Isn't this just a joke? ? !
The word embarrassment filled Er Shao Kou's face. Shen Peng gloated and snickered on the side, but he didn't know The owner of the cattle and sheep restaurant suddenly came over to the table of several people and pulled a stool at random. He sat down, laughed heartily, and patted Kou Nan on the shoulder - "Little brother, there is no need to be so embarrassed. Even people who stay in Tibet all year round and have no contact with Tibetan mastiffs will not know this, let alone you. Now" The owner of the cattle and sheep restaurant is a dark-skinned man in his forties or fifties, and his ethnic-scented clothes tell everyone that he is a Tibetan.
"These little brothers are right. Wild Tibetan mastiffs are indeed like wild dogs. They are as skinny as firewood and not as strong as Tibetan mastiffs from herdsmen's homes. But when it comes to ferocity, they areBetter yet. "
"However, when I was young, my family was grazing under the snow line of the Himalayas, and I once saw a wild mastiff king"
The dark-skinned man poured himself a bowl of milk wine. After drinking it without ceremony, he seemed to be immersed in lingering memories - "The wild mastiff king was five feet tall, with a lion-like face and every gesture." There is a dragon-elephant aura everywhere. He is the king of eighteen wild mastiffs. He is extremely strong. He is bigger than the pure-blooded mastiffs that are pampered in the mastiff gardens now. However, compared to the ferocity and strength, the wild mastiff king It can probably be torn into pieces in an instant.¡±
The owner of the cattle and sheep restaurant said something magical, but in the eyes of Liu Bin and Song Ke, they just thought they were talking nonsense What kind of king of eighteen wild mastiffs, what kind of dragon and elephant power to tear into pieces, want this world If there really is such a wild mastiff, it is unknown where it was captured by poachers, not to mention the contempt and indifference of the world towards wild mastiffs.
Wild mastiffs are wild mastiffs. They live alone in the ice and snow. Food is hard to find. Their only destination is their skinny bones.
"Okay, boss, please stop bragging. Are you going to say that the mastiff king was captured by you later? It died many years ago and left a litter of cubs. You are going to sell it to our boss." ?!" Tibetans use mastiffs to cheat, and there are countless such measures. They all start like this. At this time, the dark man in front of them looks like this, but it turns out that the cubs purchased are just hybrids.
"Caught by me? What a joke The Mastiff King was over five feet tall, and he was accompanied by eighteen wild mastiffs. He was in a snowy jungle. He could retreat or defend in battle. Who could catch him? What's more, that year , I also saw the mastiff king fighting with three snow leopards. In the end the three snow leopards died tragically and were eaten by eighteen wild mastiffs." At this point, the dark man stood up and lost all interest: "Whether it's true or not, I'm too lazy to argue with you. I just heard you talk about wild mastiffs, so I intervened. Come on we don't agree with each other. You two will eat well and drink well."
As soon as the sound fell, the swarthy man entered the kitchen without looking back, leaving only an extremely ironic silhouette behind.
