- Dangerously? - Dauge shouted. - What for we here were dragged? The odd fellow! And how those will work, after us?.
Dangerously! Investigation is always dangerous...
- To risk... - the beginnings of Bulls and poperhnulsja.
Kilometres in ones and a half from "Boy" the column of a grey smoke penetrated by a bright white flame has grown. It was
extended against black mountain, being poured by blinding light, being inflated at top in a shaggy blue ball. And again the
roar has broken through a rolling measured rumble. "Boy" has rocked. Bulls has lost balance, has seized for a shoulder of
Dauge and, falling, has had time to notice, how the heavy blue ball has come off a smoky column, has flied up to the sky
and has again plunged into curling abyss.
- You saw? - Has shouted Bulls, endeavouring to rise. It is not simply dangerous...
- Necessarily! - Dauge has shaken by the compressed fists. - necessarily we should reach there! By all means! So "every
day" forwarding work has begun.
Ermakov has flatly refused to satisfy the request of Dauge: "Boy" has gone at some distance from edge of a smoky wall,
keeping from it metres in three hundred.
- Until then, - the commander has told in reply to stickings of the geologist, - will not be equipped yet raketodrom with
beacons, I will not allow, Grigory Iogannovich to risk by car and people. We have not executed still any of our problems. Be
limited to geological investigation on distant approaches to Golconda and search for a place for an airfield. When raketodrom
"Hius" will be ready also will transfer the base here then it will be visible. All.
Through each two-three kilometres "Boy" stopped and landed scouts. Ermakov remained in the car, and the others went for
work. Dauge and Jurkovsky went in advance, samples of a ground collected, examined district, established geophysical
devices which bore Bulls and which selected on the way back. Bulls it was dragged, as a rule, behind, awfully missing and
damning the geologists who have loaded it with "barahlom". "Barahlo" was heavy to impossibility. Spetspakety and
containers with samples loaded on the same unfortunate driver.
