434. Poor Glacier
The Thread Butterfly Gu Spirit was not brought with him, and if he went down to the Qianzhuo Glacier from the north now, he would not have time to return to the camp before dark, so Li Zimu did not plan to set off to the Qianzhuo Glacier again, but went back to his home by the same route.
"If you continue to take this path tomorrow, it will be as late as today......
Zhuge Yinglong walked at the back and said, to be honest, on the steep snow-capped mountain, it is actually more difficult to go down the mountain than to go up, so he had to carefully step on the footprints of the few people in front of him.
"Just bypass it," Li Zimu said after a little thought, since there was no one on the north, he had to target the Qianzhuo Glacier further north.
The flat land sandwiched between Mount Everest and the North Peak has formed the Poor Zhuo Glacier because of the abundant and stable precipitation and low temperatures throughout the year.
The area of this glacier is not very large in the direction of the eastern slope of Mount Everest.
There are many glaciers in Xizang, and although the Qianzhuo Glacier is fully developed because of the difficulty of approaching, its reputation is very low, and few people will go there.
Tomorrow, there is no need to go to Beitou and then go down to the Qianzhuo Glacier from Beiqiao, which will waste too much time, and it is better to go around directly from the north peak.
Although the distance is relatively far, the walking speed is much faster because it is at the foot of the mountain.
If it takes three hours to climb up from Everest to the north, then it will take about that much time to go around the foot of the north peak to the Poor Zhuo Glacier.
"In other words, we have done a day's useless work...... Zhuge Yinglong thought about it and said, they finally tossed to the north today, but they didn't even see a single hair of the secret realm, and went back the same way, without any pleasure at all......
If they had climbed a shorter mountain, they might have climbed to the top of the mountain, and they would have had a little sense of conquest, but they had only climbed a saddle, and there was no pleasure at all......
"It's already very good, and it can't be said that there is no harvest at all, at least one place is excluded, right?"
Chi Ling comforted and said, she didn't feel anything to regret, the scenery along the way was not bad, no less fun than climbing the mountain, compared to Zhuge Yinglong, a person who values the result, she values the process of doing this more than Zhuge Yinglong.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them returned to their tents in the Everest base camp.
There were still four or five hours before dark, but no one chose to go out again, after all, climbing the mountain for hours in a row is indeed an exhausting act, and we have to set off again tomorrow, so it is the right thing to take a break and relax.
Glaciers are easy to climb and some are not easy to climb, like the glaciers in Antarctica, which are cold all year round, and the formation time is very long, and there will be no thawing from above, so most places are flat terrain, and the glaciers are relatively easy to climb.
And the other such as the poor Zhuo Glacier, the erosion phenomenon is more serious, the terrain is very complex, the whole looks like the spikes behind the hedgehog, formed by a huge ice pick one by one, there is no road in many places, this kind of glacier, very difficult to climb.
Unfortunately, what they are going to tomorrow is the second scenario......
In fact, Li Zimu didn't agree very much with the reasoning that the Hundred Schools of Worship was under the Poor Zhuo Glacier, but now it seems that there is no other choice, so he can only go to the Poor Zhuo Glacier to have a look.
At least the mind is balanced, at least there is a clear goal, unlike at the beginning, even how to find it is a serious problem.
"Now, my line butterfly. ”
Chi Ling walked up to Li Zimu who was sitting on the sofa with a small Gu cup in both hands and handed it to him and said, these are her treasures, but she is still very happy to give them to Li Zimu.
Whether a witch Gu master is strong or not depends not on how deep her internal strength is, and how high her skills are, but on the number and preciousness of the Gu seeds in her hands.
Li Zimu nodded and took it, opened the lid of the Gu Cup, and there was a very large butterfly lying inside, with black wings put together and regular golden silk threads arranged on it.
This is the line butterfly is not wrong, and the Gu made of the line butterfly is one size bigger than the usual line butterfly, and the lines are more obvious.
It's not that the line butterfly Gu is so precious, the main thing is that the line butterfly is a species that is difficult to find, and the difficulty of making it into a Gu is not very great, and with the passage of time, the method of making the line butterfly Gu has been lost by most Gu families, but I didn't expect that Wan Gu Zhai also has a way to raise a line butterfly.
"When I was in Minhai, this little guy would still spread his wings, but now he has been closed and not opened, is it because the temperature is too low, so he can't use it?"
Chi Ling said with some worry, as a Gu cultivator, of course she knew this situation, some Gu seeds could not be used in places where the temperature was too low or too high, because Gu seeds could not adapt to such an environment, so they could not function normally, and even died.
Finally, she was able to have the opportunity to help Li Zimu, she didn't want to be useless at this critical time, so she really looked forward to it in vain.
"Butterflies aren't as fragile as you think......"
Li Zimu shook his head and smiled, the butterfly species belongs to ectotherms, and the temperature in the body changes with the change of the environment, of course, it is true that most butterflies can't stand the temperature that is too low or too high.
But the line butterfly is different, the line butterfly itself is a butterfly species active in the alpine area, and the line butterfly Gu is even more cold-resistant, so the temperature in the Himalayas will not let them die.
"Then why doesn't it move......
Chi Ling said curiously, when she took it out before, the line butterfly took the initiative to open its wings as soon as she opened the lid and smelled the smell on her body, but today she didn't open it, which made her feel a little strange.
"It just needed a little bit of sunlight and it was too dark in the tent, so that's it"
Li Zimu thought for a moment and said, usually when the spirit is opened, it should be during the day, so the line butterfly will take the initiative to open its eyes and wings when it sees the light and smells the owner's scent.
And now it's too dark in the tent, so it's normal for the butterfly to not spread its wings.
In fact, most butterflies are like this, and most of the butterflies are hardy, even in the cold winter wax moon, you can see a lot of butterflies dancing.
Butterflies have a characteristic, that is, they need sunlight, and in sunny weather, people can mostly see butterflies flying, and on cloudy days, they basically can't see a butterfly flying, which is the truth.
"Let's hope there's a good weather tomorrow......"
