Heizhugou is known as the Bermuda of China. In May 1996, it was designated as the fourth batch of provincial-level scenic spots by Sichuan Province. In fact, its scenery is mainly composed of virgin forests
Heizhugou, so far, very few tourists have been able to visit it in person. Due to the exposure of the media, people often hear about it. With its new, strange and dangerous characteristics, it has attracted a large number of photographers and scientists to investigate. The team went deep into it to explore and uncover the secrets. Some people say it is a "horrible devil ditch", some people say it is "China's Bermuda", and some people say it is an ordinary small ravine. In any case, Heizhugou is a controversial virgin land. Heizhugou is located in Emei County, a Yi autonomous county about 100 kilometers southwest of Mount Emei. It spans Sihe Town, Lewu Township and Jinyan Township, covering an area of ??about 180 square kilometers. It is the transition zone between the Sichuan Basin and the Western Sichuan Plateau and mountains. , the territory is full of mountains, deep streams, and shrouded in mist, giving people a gloomy feeling. It has a special geographical location, complex natural conditions, primitive ecology, coupled with the ancient legends of the Yi people and the worship of this magical land by the Yi people. There have been several mysterious disappearances of people and animals in the ditch, which gave it a sense of mystery and created many puzzling mysteries that left the population stunned.
It is said that people and animals often disappear and die when they enter Heizhugou. Many media have disclosed how people disappeared after entering. Many reasons are still a mystery. According to incomplete statistics, since 1951 to the present, the Southern Sichuan Forestry Bureau, the Sichuan Provincial Forestry Department exploration team, the army surveying and mapping team and the Yi compatriots have been in danger many times in Heizhugou. Among them, three were killed, three were injured, and two are missing. According to local Yi elders, in 1950, more than 30 remnants of Hu Zongnan of the Kuomintang crossed Heizhugou with sophisticated weapons. No one survived after entering the ditch. Therefore, the place is known as the "Terrible Death Valley".
Due to the unique terrain of the valley, lush vegetation, abundant rainfall and high humidity, Heizhugou is characterized by mountain fog. It is often shrouded in mist and dense fog, making the valley gloomy and gloomy. It is mysterious and unpredictable. The mountain fog here is in various shapes. Purple mist rolls in the morning, and the sky is full of smoke in the evening. It is sometimes near and sometimes far away, sometimes quiet and sometimes moving, suddenly bright and sometimes dark, and it is endlessly changing. According to the local Yi compatriots, you are not allowed to speak loudly when entering the ditch. Make a noise, otherwise the mountain gods will be alarmed. When the mountain gods are angry, they will spit out green mist and sweep away people and animals. According to the investigators, the cause of death and disappearance of people and animals entering the ditch is very likely caused by the fog. If a person enters the strange fog in the deep mountains and wild valleys, The terrain is unfamiliar and it is difficult to escape the trap of Death Valley. Local people and investigators summed up this jingle: "Shimen Pass, Shimen Pass, misty and dark ditches accompany Baotan; apes are worried about climbing here, and heroes are sad about this pass." The Yi compatriots proudly told us: Heizhugou is a land of gold and silver. , even the fog is reluctant to leave. The fog "abundant" here is as strange as soft floating cloth. Once you get deep into it, it will surround you and engulf you. Why is the fog here so unpredictable? Why are there casualties? Whether the mist contains other ingredients remains to be studied.
The mystery of the ancestral home of the Yi people-this is a mystery worth investigating. The original name of Sihe Town is Sihuo, which in Yi language means "died by fighting". It is widely spread among the local Yi compatriots that the open valley above Shimen Pass, the most dangerous part of Death Valley, is where their ancestors lived. According to the "ancestral instructions", they cannot enter, otherwise they will suffer disaster. Shimen Pass is the hinterland of Heizhugou. Many expedition teams have gone through many hardships, but in the end they failed to penetrate into this dangerous area of ??Shimen Pass. There is a local legend that "Hunters enter without a trace, and strong men never look back once they leave."
Mystery of latitude--The latitude of Heizhugou is similar to the sensational Bermuda Triangle and the magical Egyptian pyramids. This is what explorers call the "latitude line of death". Peak 1: On the east side of the main peak of Ma'an Mountain, there is a peak with an altitude of 3998 meters. Its upper part is triangular, resembling an Egyptian pyramid. Under the red light, the golden light shines, forming a magical dream world and becoming a dazzling golden mountain that is fake and real. The "Pyramid" is the watershed between the two major river systems of Heizhugou. It originates from the Sancha River in the north and the Rosoyida River in the south. It is like the two jade arms extending from the "Pyramid", connecting the entire Heizhugou area. Heartland embraces tightly.
Heizhugou, located on the southwest edge of the Sichuan Basin, was once endowed with too much mystery.
For thousands of years, the Yi compatriots who have lived at the mouth of Heizhugou for generations have passed down word of mouth that there is a gorge called Shimenguan in the gorge. A human voice or a dog barking will alarm the mountain god Mo Lang to spit out Waves of poisonous mist swept away the humans and animals that broke into the canyon. It is said that this is the place where the ancestors of the Yi people lived, and ancestral instructions are not allowed to enter. In the early days of liberation, more than 30 remnants of Hu Zongnan's troops broke into the ditch with sophisticated weapons and fled, but no one survived; an American plane flying abroad via Heizhugou crashed and killed everyone. There are giant snakes as thick as a bowl, pandas that eat sheep, ferocious savages, and even flying saucers...
Heizhugou is located on the northern slope of Xiaoliang Mountain. Those who are careful will find that it is located at 30 latitude north latitude. ° line, which is on the same "latitude line of death" as the "Bermuda Triangle" of the Atlantic Ocean. People suddenly woke up: It turns out that China also has a Bermuda! This piece of land that had been lying quietly for hundreds of millions of years suddenly became hot. Various Chinese and foreign scientific expedition teams swarmed in. Heizhugou suddenly became the focus of the country and even the world from a little-known primitive ecological area. focus.
Some people say it is the "Valley of Death", some people say it is "China's Bermuda", and some people say it is just an ordinary small ravine. The early reports about Heizhugou were a complete disaster. News scam. Lifting aside the many veils of Heizhugou, we found that it is still a controversial virgin land.
Among all the reports about Heizhugou, Shimenguan is considered to be the most mysterious and terrifying place. Many people visit Shimen Pass with curious and mysterious eyes, but most of them fail due to its complex terrain and climate.
In January 1994, the Beijing Sport University Secret Expedition Team reached Beehive Rock, but was unable to continue due to lack of preparation.
In August 1994, the Sino-Japanese joint university student expedition team only reached Mizoguchi and had to withdraw because one team member broke a leg bone.
In March 1995, the Anhui Shuanglunchi expedition team regretfully quit due to heavy fog and running out of food at Shimen Pass, and fell short of success.
“It is quite difficult to cross Heizhugou,” said Zhu Quan, deputy director of the Sichuan Provincial Seismological Bureau. “It is often a trap even for well-prepared explorers.”
As the former leader of the Heizhugou Scientific Expedition Leading Group in Ebian County, Zhu Quan (sent to Ebian County as deputy county magistrate from 1994 to 2000) went deep into the ditch more than a dozen times. I believe what he said has weight. of. According to Zhu Quan, Shimenguan is a canyon about 3 kilometers long composed of basalt. The mountains there are steep and steep, with peaks standing between them. The relative depth reaches 1000-1200 meters, and the narrowest part of the valley bottom is only 4-5 meters. The water in the ditch is rapid, the deep pools are densely covered, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the climate is changeable. Local folk songs say: Shimen Pass, Shimen Pass, misty dark rivers and deep pools, hounds entering without a trace, and strong men gone never to return.
Leng Querlin is a well-known hunter in Heizhugou. He is 41 years old this year. More than 20 years ago, Leng Querlin and his father entered Shimenguan Canyon for the first time while chasing a muntjac. Recalling the terrifying atmosphere at that time, this experienced hunter who had shot countless large wild animals still cannot forget it.
"The muntjac has been walking in front," Leng Querlin waved his slender fingers, "but as soon as he ran into Shimenguan, the muntjac disappeared, and the hound disappeared as well."
I can understand what Lengquerlin felt at that time. In May 1995, I went deep into the outskirts of Shimen Pass alone. Although I didn't arrive in the end, the huge psychological pressure of being in a wilderness almost made me collapse - despite the deafening sound of the water, you feel the silence around you is suffocating, and you can only hear your own heartbeat and heaviness gasping sound.
Speaking of Shimen Pass, Leng Querlin’s chatterbox opened up. He said that it was an ancient road hundreds of years ago, but it was not a path for ordinary people or merchants to walk, but a vicious path for strongmen to rob homes and homes. It is called "Wupao Road" (Wupao was one of the thirteen major branches of the Yi people in Ebian before liberation). This kind of silkworm and bird path is often opened with a scimitar and carved out in the vast forest. It only has general directions and no clear road signs. Shimen Pass is a dangerous place.
In the old days, the straight-line distance from Heizhugou Pass to nearby Ganluo County via "Wupao Road" was only 30 kilometers, but it took four days to walk, which shows how difficult the road was.
It is on this road that a series of mysterious incidents of missing persons have occurred in recent decades:
In June 1955, two soldiers from a certain unit of the People's Liberation Army Surveying and Mapping Corps. , transported grain through Heizhugou, but disappeared mysteriously. The troops dispatched two platoons to search, but found nothing.
In July 1977, the forest exploration and design team of the Sichuan Provincial Forestry Department came to Heizhugou for survey. Technician Lao Chen and assistant Xiao Li disappeared near Shimen Pass. The Southern Sichuan Forestry Bureau and Ebian County jointly organized more than a hundred people to search for the missing person. The people traveled all over the green mountains and deep valleys, but no trace was found except for two pieces of paper used to make steamed buns.
In July 1995, independent producer Wen Pulin, with the funding of Sichuan Huacheng Industry, led by explorer Yang Yong, organized scientific expedition experts and expedition members to enter the Heizhugou area. Due to many The reason is that scientific expedition experts evacuated Heizhugou after a few days of activities in Camp No. 2 outside Shimen Pass. In October, a five-person expedition crew organized by Wen Pulin and Yang Yong, led by Li Yong, director of the County Minerals Office, arrived at Shimen Pass along the upper and middle ridges of Shimen Pass, and successfully crossed the heart of Heizhugou down the river.
