Chapter 36: Climbing the Mountain
However, the arrival of the promise still gave Li Shaohui a shot in the arm, with a beautiful woman to accompany him, he didn't have to be too anxious, he could rest assured that he would accompany the old lai, he went to Lai's company on time every day to report, if Lao Lai was in the company, the two of them would talk about the mountains together, say some nutritious nonsense, if Lao Lai went out to socialize, he would sit there peacefully, and wait until the company got off work before he was willing to come out, that look like he had become a member of Lao Lai's company.
After getting off work that day, Lao Lai wanted to invite Li Shaohui to fool around at night, but when he saw the promise like a flower, he was no longer embarrassed to mention those crooked melons and cracked dates at night.
After Li Shaohui held on for another 7 days, Lao Lai finally couldn't hold back: "Xiao Li, I really obeyed your trick of surrendering without a fight, amazing, your Manager Xia has also given me a few phone calls, since everyone is an old friend, there is no need to be unhappy because of this little thing, this time I signed the acceptance report, and the rest of the money will be sent to you on time." ”
Li Shaohui was happy in his heart, smiled, and complimented a lot of good words.
At dusk, Li Shaohui returned to the hotel and told the promise of the good news, and she was also very happy for Li Shaohui, saying: "Since you have such a big harvest this time, then let's celebrate." ”
"Okay, it's all up to you. ”
"I heard that this place is not far from Huashan, so let's go climb the mountain tonight to watch the sunrise!"
"What?" Li Shaohui sat up from the bed suddenly, "Auntie, let's not play like this, look at what time it is, it's about to get dark, besides, climbing a mountain is a physical job, if you don't rest, how can you have the strength to climb? The most important thing is that Huashan is the most dangerous mountain in Asia, isn't it looking for death to climb at night?" Li Shaohui used all his knowledge of Huashan in order to dispel the idea of making a promise.
"I've considered all of what you said, and it's about an hour from us to the foot of Mount Hua, so there's no problem with the time.
As for rest, your pig fell asleep before 12 o'clock yesterday, and woke up at 8 o'clock this morning, and had a lunch break at noon, so it's no problem to rest.
Finally, on the question of danger, I think you think too much, people can open tourist attractions to ensure safety, we just follow the route prescribed by people to climb the mountain should have no problem, besides, every day climb the mountain to see the sunrise so many tourists, I have not heard of any accidents. Li Shaohui was speechless when he retorted this set of reasonable and well-founded rhetoric, and it seems that the promise of this mountain climbing operation was prepared and imperative.
Li Shaohui knew that no matter how much persuasion he had, it would not have any effect, but he really didn't want to go, what kind of mountain to climb at night, and how comfortable it was to sleep with his arms in his arms!
Thinking about it, Li Shaohui had a plan, he first pretended to be careless, slipped from the bed to the ground, and then said "Ahh ”
Xu promised not to doubt it, and hurriedly helped Li Shaohui, half concerned and half reproachful, and asked: "What's wrong? Does it hurt? Why are you so careless?"
Li Shaohui was proud in his heart, because he promised to help him behind him, and he couldn't see his face, so Li Shaohui also showed an unbridled smile, and he couldn't stop shouting: "Slow down, slow down, it hurts, it hurts." ”
However, after he shouted a few times, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, as if there was a solemn atmosphere, and Xu Promise lost the concern he had just now, he hesitantly raised his head to look ahead, and found that it was a mirror, and Xu Promise in the mirror was coldly watching his wonderful performance.
"Act, keep acting, don't forget, you* didn't have a long time to go. Xu Yu said coldly, and his breathtaking eyes were full of grievances and dissatisfaction.
"Ahh
When he arrived at the foot of Mount Hua, it was seven o'clock in the evening, and Li Shaohui was busy buying tickets and snacks.
If you want to ask why Li Shaohui is so active, I believe everyone already understands it in their hearts.
Previously, he promised to beg him to come over to play, but after some changes, the situation was completely reversed, and Li Shaohui apologized for tens of millions of dollars and countless begging, so he begged him to come where he didn't want to come.
During the climb of the mountain, at the beginning, Li Shaohui could still enjoy the majestic and steep scenery with Xu Yu while talking and laughing with Xu Yu, but it didn't take long for him to be sweating profusely, and he was not interested, just crawling up with his waist bent and didn't want to say a word.
Who would have thought that the summer in Huashan would be so hot, obviously in the deep mountains and old forests, but there is no cool breath at all. At this time, the weather also changed, from the moon and stars to dark clouds, and the air became manic without the comfort of the breeze, sultry and hot, as if it were about to rain at any moment.
But Li Shaohui was not angry but happy in his heart, this kind of weather is no longer suitable for climbing, so there will be a reason not to climb later. Of course, this kind of thinking can't be talked about with promises, otherwise she will be angry again, blaming herself for not being sincere, and she must wait for the staff of the scenic spot to prompt or a large number of tourists to return down the mountain before persuading.
But Li Shaohui waited for a long time, and he didn't wait for the tips of the scenic spot, but there were more and more tourists going up the mountain.
Li Shaohui had no choice but to accompany the promise to continue to climb hard, in the thousand-foot banner and the hundred-foot gorge, Li Shaohui had to admire the magic of nature and the superior wisdom of human beings to the five-body land, here is the first and second danger of Huashan, its steepness is daunting.
Here is a big crack on the cliff, trapped between the boulders on both sides, the slope is about 70 to 80 degrees, there are more than 300 steps, the width of the steps is less than half of the soles of the feet, the two sides of the steps are almost vertical down the iron cable, if the pedestrian wants to climb up, need to grasp the iron cable with one hand, and prostrate forward on the steps with one hand, if there is a person in front of him who unfortunately falls, the latecomer may not escape the disaster, because here look down at the foot, such as facing the abyss.
Li Shaohui asked Xu to climb in front, and he guarded in fear in the back.
Here Li Shaohui still admires those girls who carry a big backpack and a big bag of snacks in their hands, and I don't know where they have so much stamina when they are usually delicate and weak, they can carry so many items up the mountain, think about themselves as a big man, in order to better preserve his physical strength, he only bought two bottles of water, a pack of ham sausages and a few bags of compressed biscuits, that's all.
After about half an hour of climbing, I finally got through the danger and climbed to the top of the thousand-foot banner.
However, it is surprising that there is a small shop with all kinds of drinks and snacks, and what is even more surprising is that there are large appliances such as refrigerators, and I don't know how to transport them, which is really amazing.
After passing the 100-foot Gorge, it was almost the same as the peak of the North Peak, but Li Shaohui and Xu Yu could only look up after walking for more than an hour.
Li Shaohui discussed with Xu Promise, and planned to rest for a while before climbing, but Li Shaohui and Xu Promise, who sat down, fell asleep from exhaustion without saying a few words.
"Husband, don't sleep, let's go. I don't know how long it took, Xu Yu patted Li Shaohui's face and shouted.
"Well, baby, I'm so tired, or let's forget it and stop climbing. After Li Shaohui rested for a while, he felt more and more tired.
"Let's go, husband, I want to climb, this is a wish I made a long time ago, but no one has been willing to accompany me to fulfill it, don't you even want to?" Xu Yingying looked at Li Shaohui with a coquettish and earnest tone. Li Shaohui couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to stand up and continue to move forward.
Because they rested for a while, the two of them were in much better spirits than just now, and it was late at night, and the weather was not as hot as just now, so Li Shaohui promised that the two of them would be more and more interested, and they chatted while walking. After about another hour, at more than 3 o'clock in the morning, it lasted 8 hours, and finally climbed to the summit of the north peak at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters.
Although it was late at night, it was already crowded with people, many people chattering around to express their joy that they had finally reached the summit, and some people had rented tents early to lie down in them to rest and chat.
Li Shaohui also wanted to rent a tent, but when the queue passed, it was already empty, and he could only smile helplessly at the promise with his hands in disappointment.
Li Shaohui and Xu Yu found a quiet corner and rested under a big tree with their backs against them, but the temperature in the mountains dropped very quickly, and the two of them, who were still sweating profusely just now, began to tremble after a long time of freezing, and after a night of hard trekking, their stomachs also growled.
The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, in order to divert their attention, they had to silently recite the numbers or count the sheep, and finally fell asleep in various ways in the midst of hunger and cold.
slept until midnight, but Li Shaohui was frozen awake, it was already dawn, the dew on the mountain was particularly wet and cold, he turned his head to look at Xu Yue, Xu Yue was curled up, snuggled up to him, shivering. Li Shaohui was full of pity, and hurriedly picked up Xu Yue, tightly leaned in his arms, and kept rubbing her bare forearms with both hands to keep her warm.
In the haze, the sky was much brighter, and the white of the oriental fish belly was becoming more and more brilliant in the faint red light.
At this time, the surrounding voices also began to be noisy, and the quiet and peaceful just now were swept away, and even climbed the neighboring trees, just to see the prosperous face of the red sun in the east.
Li Shaohui stretched his body, helped Xu Yu to stand up, squeezed to a railing of the observation deck, stared at the sky for a moment, and waited for the sunrise, for fear of missing the upcoming beauty.
"Ahh With the corner of the red sun on the horizon, the crowd erupted in exclamation. They looked excited, excited, and raised their mobile phones to take pictures, and the sound of clicking and clicking echoed in the mountains for a long time.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for Tiangong to get angry, so that yesterday's bad luck and cloudy days continued to this day, and a few dark clouds also made up the excitement, they were like naughty children, and they blocked the red sun that was about to appear, so in the distance of the sky, except for a gray scene, there was no imaginary sunrise at all.
The tourists were anxious and depressed, and no one wanted to go through a lot of hard work, but they only saw the dark clouds in the sky.
The crowd complained hopefully, but the minutes passed quietly in the irritable atmosphere, and the tourists became more and more impatient, but the dark clouds still covered incomprehensibly, like the veil of ancient beauties, forever hiding the thrilling beauty.
After a while, the sky was getting brighter, and the impatient people who were already waiting chose to take the cable car down the mountain, and the complaints of those who remained on the observation deck increased.
I don't know how long it took, but the sky finally turned clear, and the dark clouds ran away, and in the bright sky, the white sun hanging high in the sky was revealed, shining with dazzling light, as if greeting long-lost tourists, and as if mocking the stupid world.
"Fuck you!" someone in the crowd burst into a foul mouth, angrily throwing an unfinished bottle of mineral water down the cliff.
Everyone was not disappointed, and they all hung their heads, complaining about the bad trip, and completely lost the interest that travel should have.
