The Age of Awakening: From the Young Runtu

Wanting to get more precious medicinal herbs, Runtu decided to climb Mount Everest.

It is difficult to climb Mount Everest now, but Runtu believes in his own strength.

In later generations, climbing Mount Everest will be much easier.

After all, there will be more equipment in later generations.

It takes a lot of money.Climbing permit, round trip transportation, equipment and supplies, mountain guide.

Starting from the base camp, you first need to pass through the Khumbu Glacier, which is a spectacular but dangerous and terrifying area, consisting of bottomless crevasses, countless seracs and ice blocks.

Facing the snarling crevasses of the Khumbu Glacier, I was at a loss.Fortunately, at the beginning of each Everest climbing season, someone has already repaired the road ropes and ladders here, and you need to pay $600 to use the road ropes.Weather service during the climb costs $1000.

Above an altitude of 7000 meters, most climbers have begun to use auxiliary oxygen to climb. Several large climbing companies take turns to open the road ropes above this level, and a road opening fee of US$200 is required.

Those who are particularly fit and hardcore climbers may choose to carry their supplemental oxygen to high camps on the mountain.An empty oxygen cylinder weighs six kilograms, and when full, it weighs almost seven kilograms.The rich will choose to ask someone to carry them on their backs.

Pay for the oxygen tanks, again thousands of dollars here.

You also need to pay the guide, which is more than 1000 US dollars.

It costs at least 10,000+ to log in once, and the high point is hundreds of thousands.

Even today the power of money can solve most difficulties.If you want to be on top of the world, money is not enough.

Someone thought about taking a helicopter.

But in fact, taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest is more difficult than climbing Mount Everest itself.

There is something deep in the human heart that can respond to the challenge issued by this mountain and go out to meet it. This struggle originates from life itself and always moves upward. This is something that money cannot buy very well.Just pure joy.

The bodies of many people remain on Mount Everest forever.

Transporting bodies will kill more people.

Although the scenery is beautiful, the environment is very harsh.In front of it, human power seems so insignificant. Here, any risk may kill someone.The most deadly are low temperatures, thin air, and dangerous terrain.

The temperature gets lower as you go to the summit. The average temperature at the summit is minus 36 degrees Celsius, and the lowest temperature is only minus 60 degrees Celsius.Moreover, the air is quite thin, and the oxygen content here is only two-thirds of that at sea level, which can cause climbers to experience auditory and visual hallucinations and splitting headaches.The terrain is even more dangerous. Glaciers, cliffs, cliffs, any one of them can become an insurmountable chasm.

In this case, even if a very professional climber brings enough equipment, he still may not be able to successfully climb to the top, or even be unable to guarantee his own life safety.

Sometimes, you may just stop and take a break and never wake up again.High-altitude pulmonary edema and cerebral edema follow them closely and can kill them at any time.Once an accident occurs, it is difficult to get timely rescue.

The helicopter can't get up. Not only is it impossible for humans to accomplish such a thing, not even a helicopter can do it.The altitude at which a helicopter rises is affected by external air pressure, air density and oxygen concentration. The higher the altitude, the lower the air density, the less air that can enter the engine, and the engine's working efficiency will decrease.

Thin air reduces the efficiency of engines and rotors.Even if supercharging equipment and a more powerful engine are installed, the helicopter will still be under tremendous pressure.

The wind speed is high above Mount Everest, and the wind direction is very easy to change, which can easily cause the helicopter to lose its balance and hit the mountain wall.

High altitude, wind and snow, continuous avalanches, complex and changeable climate, extreme cold and snowfall, strong winds in the dry season, and clouds and fog in the rainy season.On the huge screen-shaped mountain, the rock walls are steep and unstable.

Runtu also prepared some simple equipment in his space, including ice axes, crampons, oxygen bottles and mountaineering clothes, all of which were primitive.

Even the best climbers can lose everything with one careless move.Strength often cannot influence fate, and no one can escape fate when it comes.Everest climbing, there are many stories in the history of entire teams being wiped out.

By later generations, nearly 300 people could be counted as having died during the Everest expedition.On their way to the top, climbers not only have to face the test of wind, snow and high altitude, but they also have to watch corpses scattered everywhere, which adds to the test of their psychological quality.

Most of the deceased died due to personal reasons.Some are due to physical reasons. After all, at the height of climbing Mount Everest, all minor problems with the body will be infinitely magnified until they are completely unbearable and become the last straw for climbers. Some are due to Equipment defects, such as insufficient oxygen carrying capacity or broken ropes, are left on the mountain in mysterious circumstances.

Some people stayed on Mount Everest as a whole team because of strong external interference or serious equipment defects.

Some choose the wrong route.

An expedition team in England chose an ice slope that was too steep, and the three leaders did not have the physical strength to compact the snow in front of them, eventually causing an artificial avalanche.Everyone following the team was hit by a large avalanche, and 9 people were driven directly into a crack. 2 of them were rescued, and 7 people slept on the snow-capped mountains.

In later generations, there were two Everest base camps.The Everest Base Camp, which can usually be reached by self-driving, is actually a tourist base camp. There are many yurt tents run by locals, which can provide food and accommodation. This base camp can see the majestic mountain on the north slope of Mount Everest and is open year-round.

The mountaineering base camp open to climbers on Mount Everest is still deeper.It is two to three kilometers away from the tourist base camp and is only open during the two climbing seasons of April and May in spring and September and October in autumn.There is a wooden railing at the tourist base camp, blocking the road to the mountaineering base camp. Only climbers' cars can enter.

Sufficient physical fitness is required.Physical fitness is the foundation to ensure success in climbing and your own safety. Without sufficient physical fitness, nothing is possible.

Experience and technology.Experience is accumulated through continuous climbing, especially being able to make correct decisions when encountering emergencies; if basic mountaineering skills such as rock climbing and ice climbing can be learned and practiced in normal times, you will be able to make correct decisions during the climb to Mount Everest. Help save energy.

At more than 7500 meters on the north slope, you enter the mixed area of ​​snow rock and ice rock and the first, second and third steps. If you are familiar with walking and climbing on rocks with crampons, it will save you effort.There is often bright ice on that section of the south slope of Lhotse Wall. If you know how to climb ice and know how to use the front teeth of your crampons to kick the ice, climbing will be particularly easy.

Good psychology.Don't be afraid of high reaction, and don't be discouraged when you encounter difficulties.Always maintain a normal mind during the climb of Mount Everest, which will help you adjust your body and mind to the best climbing condition.equipment.If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.A good carrying system can evenly distribute the weight to the shoulders and hips, allowing the thigh muscles to participate in the load-bearing, reducing the weight and discomfort on the shoulders and making the body's center of gravity more stable and walking more stable.Breathable, when the back is sweating, the backpack sticks tightly to the back, making it warmer the more you cover it.

Runtu knew something about Mount Everest.

Transportation is very inconvenient.

It basically relies on two legs, but it has its own space. In the space, there are helicopters, cars, motorcycles, everything you need.

I saw a river with a relatively fast flow nearby.

There are three people by the river.

Shouting.

Runtu went over to see the situation.

I've been here for about ten days.I spent money to hire a person who almost learned the Tibetan language.

"What happened?"

After asking about the situation, a man fell into the river.

Runtu looked into the river and saw that there was indeed a person there.

The river water is relatively fast.

It is not very scientific for ordinary people to save people.

Runtu plunged into the river.

It can withstand avalanches and storms.

Of course this is no problem.It took a while to pull the person to the shore.

I am very grateful to Runtu.

Invited to come home for dinner.

A sheep was slaughtered.

They are family.

A family of seven or eight people is quite capable of having children.

"The person inside is your daughter, why are you keeping her locked up?"

At this time, Runtu's Tibetan language was very good and he could communicate smoothly.

understand the situation.

It was his daughter who had an affair with someone from out of town a year ago.

But the man left the snow area and left the woman behind.

The woman wants to find someone.

The snowy area is so big that it’s difficult to walk.

And the man never gave a specific address.

I only mentioned a rough range, probably just for fun.

But the woman was tempted, and several times she thought about going out to look for someone, but was simply imprisoned by her father.

This outsider is from the Central Plains and has never thought of taking root in the snowy area.I never thought about taking people away.

I saw a book of Three Hundred Tang Poems on the table.

"Who reads this book?"

"My, I love poetry."

It belongs to the drowned man's son.

Runtu: "Which poet do you like best?"

Nowadays, not many people in snowy areas like to read poetry.

"Cao Zhi."

Runtu: "Can you elaborate more?"

"Cao Zhi, as an ancient man more than 1000 years ago, had many advanced theories in literature and art, such as: humbly accepting criticism, paying attention to folk literature, reading extensively, diligently creating, developing a variety of talents, and getting in touch with the bottom and practicing more."

"From official historical records, we can see that Cao Zhi himself had many advantages: he was simple and approachable, not scheming, and spoke straightforwardly.

Of course, he also has shortcomings, such as drinking too much, not being self-disciplined, being arrogant at times, and indeed having political desires, but in general, his flaws cannot be concealed.

After all, if Cao Zhi really did something bad, Cao Pi would definitely catch him. However, history books record that he was drunk and insolent and robbed an envoy. Presumably, Cao Zhi did not do any other bad things.

This is not easy given his political status and political situation.As for the luxurious life in the early years, there were many beauties.All nobles are like this, so there will be no further investigation. "

This doll is probably about fourteen or fifteen years old. It seems that it is not simple to have such an opinion.

"Celebrities, poets, critics and scholars throughout the ages have highly praised Cao Zhi from his works to his person. Except for Wang Fuzhi in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and Guo Moruo in modern times, almost no famous scholars have made very negative comments about Cao Zhi. This shows that Cao Zhi is still very good in all aspects. One that can stand the test.”

Runtu: "I think your son's academic performance is very good."

"Yes, he is very smart. His husband, also his sister's husband, left the snow area, and he left these books behind."

The living conditions of this family are very good. They have a lot of land for raising cattle and sheep, and their life is not bad.

Understood the situation.

That gentleman is the one who is close to his sister.

But the person has left and probably won't come back.

After chatting for a while, we found out that their teacher was from the capital of the Central Plains.

"Uncle Zhang, if you see him, can you ask him why he left?"

What else could be the reason? I don’t want to stay in the snow area all the time.

It's okay to stay for a year and a half.

It may be a bit unbearable for outsiders to live here forever.

There will be many such things in later generations.

Runtu knew a true story. A girl in later generations fell in love with a boy when she was in high school. After being discovered by the school, she was expelled. The lonely girl chose to drop out of school despite her parents' objections and scoldings. Let the boy pursue his dream with peace of mind.

With a low level of education, she interviewed with many companies but was rejected because of her low academic qualifications, so she had to work in a factory as an assembly line worker. The boy's family background was not good, so she ran away from home in anger and did not contact her parents. Her monthly salary Only a very small part was kept and all was remitted to the boy's education. The boy studied from college to graduate school. During the period, she worked early and late, lived frugally, and worked several odd jobs to save for him.

Later, the boy got married and had a child with a girl from the same school. She stupidly waited for the boy to marry her after he became successful.

The boy told her the fact that he was married only after a long time after getting married. He also promised that he would keep careful records of every remittance she made over the years. He would pay her back in installments in the future, and he would also pay a lot of money according to the bank's interest. Give it back to her, just ask her to give it some time.

When she knew this, she was so hysterical that she lost her mind and wanted to go to his city immediately to seek justice. The funny thing is that in these years, she only played the role of a cash machine, and she only knew the city where he was.When she rushed to this city angrily, the big city was like looking for a needle in a haystack to her, and in the end she had to return without success.

There are too many similar things.

It was a neighbor sister of Runtu in later generations. More than ten years later, when he heard the elder sister talk about that past event, there was nothing but calmness and gentleness.She was even as calm and calm as if she was telling someone else's story, but she finally said that if she could go back to the early summer when she was 16, she would never choose to drop out of school. She would try her best to get her parents to transfer her to another school or even repeat a grade.She even said that maybe the school was just scaring them, but she was young and frivolous and chose the most ignorant path.

Regarding so-called love, more people may choose their own future.

There may still be love at this time, but it will be difficult in the future. The pace is too fast and you meet too many people. (End of chapter)
