Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 387: Khumbu Glacier

In the afternoon, due to the heavy wind and snow, everyone had to stop the training and return to the camp.

At six o'clock, it was already cold outside the tent.

It was warm inside the tent, and everyone was leaning around the fire, eating hard food that was hard to swallow.

Wang Yongbo swallowed a mouthful of bread, and suddenly his face turned red. Seeing this, Bi Fang handed over a bottle of mineral water.

"This bread, I choked and burped."

"There is no way, there are only these on the mountain, so I will order it."

Looking at the shriveled bread, Wang Yongbo, who was at a high altitude, had no appetite. He lifted the curtain on the side, and the wind and snow suddenly poured in. It was so cold that he quickly let go: "It's so windy outside, where is Yao Jun?"

"Let's go fight the autumn wind?" Bi Fang thought for a while, "He's not someone who can't handle it clearly, he probably wants to buy something good to try."

After hearing it, Rob hesitated for a while: "The materials here are basically the same, unless you spend a lot of money..."

"Hey hey hey, here comes the chicken soup!"

When the tent curtain was lifted, Yao Jun stepped forward with a big pot in his hand, and Feng Xue was behind him, causing everyone to shudder.

"Pu, cough cough cough."

Bi Fang spit out a mouthful of hot tea, took out a paper towel and wiped it, and quickly got up and lifted the lid of the pot, the steam was steaming, and when the smoke completely dissipated, Bi Fang was instantly relieved to see the whole chicken inside. It was a domestic old man. Chick.

"You almost scared me to death, I thought you really killed a Tibetan Snow Chicken!"

"How is that possible? I'm a law-abiding citizen." Yao Jun grinned, put the pot on the oven, lifted the lid, milky white steam rose up, and the aroma of meat wafted everywhere, everyone smelled the fragrance, They all gathered together, swallowing saliva unconsciously.

Rob chewed the dry bread in his hand, and felt bitter and tasteless. He smashed his mouth twice, but also couldn't help leaning over. He asked curiously, "Mr. Yao, where did you get this chicken?"

Yao Jun laughed twice, took off his coat and sat cross-legged by the oven, picked up the fire hook and turned on the charcoal fire, thin sparks floated up, and the people next to him blew lightly, and they disappeared in a chaotic manner. After all the rest of the ingredients were poured into it, he explained: "Last night, I couldn't sleep because of my forehead, and I always felt that my mouth was bland, so I called my assistant, and he helped me find a family to stew. I got a pot of chicken soup, but it couldn’t be boiled on the mountain, so I started stewing it last night, and it has been stewing until now, day and night, and it was delivered to me directly, I thought I couldn’t eat it today, hehe.”

Wang Yongbo looked at the churning golden grease in the pot, wiped his saliva, and asked without raising his head, "It's so troublesome, it's going to cost a lot of money, right?"

"It's a small amount of money compared to the ticket. Come here, so you can enjoy it. I'll go on vacation when I'm climbing, and I'll eat meat when I'm eating bread!" Yao Jun took out a small bowl and poured all the seasonings on it. Inside, "Come here, let's all have a taste. The old hens that are more than a year old are big, fat, and very oily. I have an appointment tomorrow. I have a big pot of lamb offal soup! It's hot! "

Yao Jun picked up his chopsticks and greeted the crowd, picked up a piece of chicken thigh, shoved it into his mouth, chewed it comfortably, put the sauce on the stage, pouted at the crowd, and signaled to do it himself.

"The Sherpa can't stew, so I didn't let him put seasonings, so this chicken doesn't have any flavor, so you can adjust it yourself."

The steam swirled around in the tent and quickly filled the small space.

Everyone looked at each other through the faint cloud and mist, and their excitement flashed past.

Rob also took a small piece of meat and chewed it slowly. Maybe it was because of the long enough time. The chicken was very soft and rotten. He looked at the lively crowd in front of him with curiosity. He had never seen such a strange combination.

The team I have brought is not only this time, there are puffy people, professional climbers, and family members. It’s like traveling. After walking two steps, I have to take a photo and post it on the Internet. The road of sheep dung had a bitter face, and the chopsticks handed by ordinary villagers had to be wiped several times. Some people have very luxurious equipment, thousands of them at every turn, but they are exhausted after walking for an hour or two. There are also some who are taciturn along the way, as if they regard climbing as a task, and they will be scolded by the boss if they do not complete it.

But the group of people in front of them are completely different, a 90-year-old senior, a middle-aged vice president of a large company, a young and fun-loving rich second generation, and a big anchor whose main business is live broadcast.

It seems that they are the least like a group of people who can climb mountains, but they successfully climbed to the base camp. The anchor who is the least like the leader, and should not be the leader, is the backbone of everyone. He can calmly swallow the shriveled bread, drink the noodles cooked by the villagers, and walk in big strides. He never worries about whether his hiking shoes will be stained with cow dung, like a Sherpa who has lived here since he was a child. , you can start zippering directly without getting used to it, and you can climb a rock at a distance of 6,000 meters with a throw of gloves. When he is happy, his eyebrows that fly upward seem sharper than a sword, as if nothing can stop him from moving forward.

Every time you go to a place, you can calmly adapt to the rules, and enjoy it, and even enjoy the experience with the people around you.

Like... a natural adventurer.

The next morning.

Rob walked out of the tent, picked up a few pieces of garbage on the ground, looked at the tent beside him, and squinted and smiled.

"Those who haven't used crampons, be sure to read the left and right signs clearly, and then make sure that they fit on the card slot. It's very simple, first of all..."

Ten minutes later, Fisher breathed a sigh of relief after watching the team wear crampons, and then also saw Rob standing beside him.

Rob looked at the players behind Fisher and shook his head: "Unbelievable."

Fisher took off his hat and patted Rob's chest: "No way, the company wants to make money, I want to make money, you also want to make money, everyone wants to make money, the times are developing, as long as everyone feels that they can make money Everest, the more money you can earn, I heard that you also brought inexperienced climbers this time?"

"I thought so too at first, but there was a guy inside that made me feel very different. He just came here the day before yesterday. Guess what he did? The guy on the **** was rescued, my God, I was stunned at the time, you know? If it wasn't for a permit, I doubt he even needed a guide!"

Fisher raised his eyebrows and took a sip of coffee: "This kind of person doesn't have any climbing records? Are you kidding me?"

"I thought too, but it's true, there is no mountaineering proof, from the resume, a complete newcomer."

Fisher wrinkled his nose and nodded at the sun.

Seeing this, Rob knew that the other party didn't believe it, but he didn't explain anything, so he could only change the subject: "I heard that you have already gone to the front to clean up the icicles?"

"Yeah, it's even worse this year. The old icicles are quite big, and it took four or five ladders to get past them."

Just when Fisher was about to say something, he suddenly put on his sunglasses and patted Rob on the shoulder: "Your team members."

Rob looked up and saw Bi Fang, who had already dressed his equipment, and laughed dumbly.

......

Bi Fang opened the live broadcast.

【Fuck! Live at midnight? 】

【Are you starting to climb the mountain? Didn't you say it would start in the early morning last time? 】

[My God, is this too early? I hadn't slept yet, when I suddenly received a notification to start the broadcast. 】

[Shocked, two live broadcasts in one day]

【Are you going to the C2 camp today? 】

【Climbing without oxygen, **** it! 】

"Accurately speaking, it is not camp C2, but preparing to start the summit. In order to reach the summit in the best condition, we have to perform three adaptive summit trainings, and then return to the camp, which can be C2 or C1. Now It is after one o'clock in the morning, but we must quickly put on all kinds of equipment, prepare to set off, and take advantage of the lowest temperature and the relatively stable glacier, as soon as possible to pass through the Khumbu Glacier, which is called the 'Terror Glacier' at an altitude of 5,700 meters."

"The large and small cracks of the Khumbu Glacier are crisscrossed, and the towering hanging glaciers may pour down at any time. The Nuzi Peak on both sides of the glaciers and the huge Mount Everest are also at risk of avalanches, which are extremely high mortality rates for climbing Mount Everest. A checkpoint must be done without fail, yesterday we went to the pass, not the Everest summit route, and did not encounter the Khumbu Glacier, but today, there will be our only way."

Bi Fang put all the tools on the ground and stuffed them into the bag one by one, making sure that nothing was left out.

"Because it is an anaerobic summit, the equipment must be lightweight, and there are almost no spare tools. I am going to bring a small seat belt. You must have seen it. It is the one I saved the day before yesterday. It is durable and used for ropes. Drop. Trekking poles, small ice axe, gloves, sunglasses, down jacket, pants, a hydration bag, there's a lot of water in the mountains, so I just need a hydration bag to hold water on the ridge, and by the way, some energy gels and Energy bar."

Bi Fang took out a lot of "chocolate bars" in the spare bag and showed them to everyone. The energy bars were normal, similar to chocolate bars, while the energy gels were disgusting and looked a bit like snot.

Then he grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his bag. This was Bi Fang's mountaineering fuel. Combined with his strong digestive ability, it played an absolutely wonderful role.

"Energy bars and energy gels can be eaten directly to replenish energy. Although energy bars and chocolate bars look the same and taste similar, chocolate contains 30 to 32 grams of fat per 100 grams, and the fat content is mainly saturated. Fatty acids. Therefore, chocolate is just a food that pleases the taste buds, and regular consumption of chocolate is not healthy.

Energy bars limit fat intake on the premise of ensuring energy intake. Generally, 1 sports energy bar is used 1 hour before exercise. Use one within 30-60 minutes after exercise to increase glycogen storage and reduce exercise muscle soreness. "

Speaking of which, Bi Fang ripped open an energy bar and gnawed it: "This is my breakfast."

[Is this really enough? 】

【Is this too little? 】

After walking out of the camp, the snowstorm had already stopped, and it was still dark outside, but many people had already got up and started to act.

The sound of the ice collapse of the Khumbu Glacier rumbled from time to time...

"After staying in this kind of 'barrenness' for a long time, you will suddenly not know where you are. If it wasn't for the wifi connection, I might have thought that I was living on an alien planet. You can hear those sounds like thunder, which is actually a glacier cracking. The sound, as well as the cough, is due to pneumonia and 'kelp cough' caused by the dryness and cold in the mountains."

Bi Fang was doing a simple warm-up exercise. Every time they approached a tent, the audience could hear a coughing sound, one after another in the camp, like maggots attached to bones, and the dark and dark environment was like a horror movie.

After stretching all the muscles in his body, Bi Fang started to jog with small steps. He always believed in one sentence.

Don't imagine that it will be done overnight. Before reaching your goal, every step you take counts.

One step, one more step.

How hard is it to wait for Mount Everest?

During the long struggle, if you did not give up exercise because of laziness, did not dare to try because of fear; did not stop because of opposition from relatives and friends; did not sigh because of lack of time or money; did not ignore it because of blind confidence Climbing knowledge; not despising professional equipment because of ignorance; not hanging in a training session because of bad luck...

It is possible to become the one-in-a-million climber.

Soon, Bi Fang, who was warming up last night, found Rob. At this time, Yao Jun, Sir and others were also ready. Not to mention the Sherpas, they were generally experienced veterans.

Attenborough stepped out of the tent, and the cold air poured into his lungs, causing him to cough twice.

Bi Fang pulled Attenborough away and said nervously, "Sir, how is it? Are you feeling okay? Do you feel any discomfort? If you feel any discomfort, please report it as soon as possible."

Attenborough waved his hand: "It's alright, I was agitated by the cold air, I feel pretty good myself."

"If you have any problems, be sure to tell me as soon as possible~www.readwn.com~ Attenborough nodded, indicating that he has no problem.

At this time, Rob also prepared everything, and started to move towards the snow peak with everyone: "It is estimated that it will take about an hour to walk from the center of the base camp to the edge of the Khumbu Glacier, and then start to hang up the ascender and climb upward. Be sure to follow closely in the middle. I, and follow my footsteps, don't leave the team, even a few meters, you may encounter a sudden glacier, once you fall into it, you can almost be sentenced to death."

"There are countless ice tower forests one or two stories high on the edge of the Khumbu Glacier. When you pass through the dark, you will occasionally hear a loud 'click' in the ice tower, which is because of the sound of ice cracking. Don't hear it. Panic, don't run away, don't shout, because in the dark you can't tell which direction the sound is coming from. Once you go the wrong direction, it's almost impossible to get back, so be sure to follow me closely and observe the situation , and wait for it to pass quickly when there is no serious problem."

At this point, Rob suddenly paused, looked at Bi Fang, and added: "Or just follow Mr. Bi."

Hearing this, Bi Fang scratched his head.

Why do you always feel that Rob's attitude towards him is not the same?
