Chapter 50 Man-eating Brown Bear
"Karas" means "beautiful, rich and mysterious" in Mongolian, and its water source is the main peak of the Altai Mountains - the friendship peak on the Sino-Russian-Mongolian border. Kanas Lake is 2370 meters above sea level, 25 kilometers long and 202 kilometers wide, with an area of 45.73 square kilometers, with an average water depth of 120 meters, 188.5 meters at the deepest level and 5.38 billion cubic meters of water storage, so many unknown creatures can live here. To the north is Russia, a cold and remote wildlife paradise in Siberia, which is an uninhabited and dangerous place.
In the folk village in this scenic area, there is also a traditional song and dance troupe from Russia. Russians love drinking, and women are not included. At night, the hotel and bar are basically full of Russians.
At dinner, A Cuo went to the scenic spot by himself. Xiao Peiwo texted her prince in the room. Zhou Xirui felt a little bored, so he went to the bar in the hotel to ask for a glass of wine and sat down quietly listening to the low and melodious melody played by the saxophone...
The snow is still in the village
Young people disappear in the birch forest
The long road is coming to an end
That girl is already white-haired
She often listens to his call by the pillow
"Come on, dear, come to this birch forest"
She muttered when she died
"I'm here waiting for me in the birch forest
This melody was so sad that Li Wen's smile flashed in his mind. He drank wine cup after cup, trying to anesthetize the pain in his heart with alcohol.
A blonde Russian girl came over and asked him with a smile in Chinese with a local accent, "Don't you want to buy me a drink?" Zhou Xirui waved to the waiter and motioned to bring the girl a glass of wine, but he didn't want to talk to him, so he didn't say anything.
The girl didn't mind seeing that Zhou Xirui ignored her. She took the wine brought by the waiter and sat next to Zhou Xirui: "Have you also lost your heart?" Zhou Xirui looked up at the girl in surprise. The girl said while drinking, "You don't have to be surprised. I also lost my lover, so as soon as I see you drink, I know what's going on!"
Zhou Xirui asked the girl curiously, "How did you lose your lover?" The girl said, "Dead, drowned by the water demon in the lake, and even the body was not found!" Zhou Xirui asked, "Was the water monster dragging down?" The girl lit a cigarette and shook her head. She told Zhou Xirui a miserable and sad story.
She said that year, she was on a college vacation with her father, a famous Russian zoologist, and her father's student Andre, who was also her boyfriend and came to Kanas Lake on the border with China to inspect the local rare animals. There are many dangers lurking in the wasteland, such as the Siberian brown bear, which stands upright two meters high and can weigh hundreds of kilograms. There is also a legend of a water demon living in Lake Karas in the Russian border area. It is said that the upper body of the woman and the lower body of the fish sang beautiful songs to confuse the men, and then dragged them into the lake to eat them.
Because of these legends, she was worried that her father and boyfriend would come here to investigate, so she came to this wilderness together. But terrible things still happened under her eyes.
One morning, my father said that he would observe the brown bear. Now it is the season for salmon to give birth. The brown bear will go to the river to catch fish to understand their food situation this year. It was very cold in the morning. Before she and Andrelie got up, their father left alone in order to let them sleep more.
But more than an hour later, my father called for help: "Lisa, I was attacked by bears. They are going to eat me. Help!" Then she heard her father's scream, and she quickly called Andrelie to get up quickly, but they were not sure which direction their father was going.
She desperately searched by the river in the wilderness, but she didn't see her father. She shouted anxiously on the phone, "Dad, where are you? Dad screamed on the phone, and the sound of the bear chewing meat was heard, and Lisa's heart was chewed by the sound. She looked madly with Andre, and finally found a female bear with cubs on the edge of a forest, gnawing at her father's body.
They fired a few shots at the brown bear fiercely. The bear fled in panic with the cub. Lisa ran to her father's side. The tragic scene in front of her made her almost faint. Her father's lower body had basically been eaten by the brown bear. She trembled and hugged her father. Her father opened his eyes slightly and looked at her kindly and said in a weak voice, "Don't worry, Lisa, I don't hurt anymore. I'm going to sleep for a while." Father closed his eyes and never woke up.
Speaking of this, Lisa has choked. She took a big sip of wine to try to calm herself down. Nothing in the world is more painful than losing her beloved father.
