429. Departure, Beijiao
"Ah...... I slept this night, and I felt my chest stuffy......"
Zhuge Yinglong said sleepily while nibbling on bread, there is no water here, and it is a very luxurious thing to wash your face.
"Mmmm, even if you take a big breath, you don't feel much oxygen running into your lungs."
Chi Ling nodded in agreement with what he said, she felt the same way, but she slept quite comfortably last night, at least until dawn.
"Are we going to climb the mountain today?" Zhuge Yinglong looked at Li Zimu who was sitting on the sofa chewing gum and asked, of course the boss has the final say here, Li Zimu said what he wanted to do, and they naturally followed suit.
"Mmmm, I'll climb today" Li Zimu nodded and said, he didn't sleep last night, he was thinking about things all the time, but now he doesn't feel sleepy.
He has been wondering, what is the appearance of the Hundred Schools Altar, why was it built in this inaccessible place, if the original intention of its establishment was to resist the violent Qin and retain the strength of the Hundred Schools, then there was no need to go so far to build such a secret realm.
Or is it that from the very beginning, it was built for the purpose of hiding the Xuanyuan Sword?
Thinking about it this way, but it's not impossible, after all, the less people know about the Xuanyuan Sword, the better, this place at that time, basically no one came, it was used to hide things, but it was an excellent place.
"Where to climb, Everest? I heard them say that if you want to climb Everest, you should find a guide, otherwise it will be very dangerous......
Zhuge Yinglong pouted and said, yesterday afternoon he met a few people in the tent next to him, they all came to climb Mount Everest, and they had been preparing for this for many months, and they were bound to climb to the top.
On their own side, they don't seem to have prepared anything, it's like they're having fun, it's just a trip to go.
"We don't climb Mount Everest, we climb that mountain," said Chi Ling, pointing to the Jianbing Peak in the distance, when she chatted with Li Zimu yesterday afternoon, the latter decided, so she knew in advance.
"Let's not climb that mountain today, let's climb Mount Everest"
Li Zimu said lightly, he changed his mind, he originally decided to climb the peak in the northwest direction called Jianbing Peak yesterday afternoon, but just last night, he temporarily changed his mind.
The information revealed by the Eye of Heaven last night told Li Zimu that this Hundred Families Altar was very likely to be in the direction of due north, not the northwest, so of course he was going to the direction of due north.
There is no mountain due north, but the saddle area formed between two mountains of more than 8,000 meters in the north of Mount Everest and North Peak, where the terrain is relatively flat, and perhaps the Hundred Altars will be there.
After all, this change in the Eye of Heaven will not be for no reason, Li Zimu always believes in this.
But if you want to get to that saddle place, you first have to go up to Mount Everest, and then go around Mount Everest, and you don't need to climb to the top.
According to the data, the altitude there is already more than 7,000 meters above sea level, which is higher than the average small peak.
"Eh, why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Chi Ling said suspiciously, yesterday Li Zimu also said that he would climb the Jianbing Peak, but he didn't expect to wake up today and change his hexagram.
"We'll talk about it when ...... then"
Li Zimu nodded and said, without further explanation, got up from the sofa and walked to the back of the tent to get the equipment he was going to wear today.
Down vests, duck down suits, used to keep warm from the cold, and relatively light weight, very suitable for mountaineering, waterproof and windproof effect is excellent.
Jackets, goggles, mainly for wind protection, the wind is strong on the mountain, of course, you must be well prepared. In addition, there are down socks and down gloves, which Carl prepared for them in advance, and a set of tailor-made for each person.
The color is white, which is different from the dark fabric of the general snow-capped mountain down jacket, which is specially requested by Li Zimu, because ordinary people wear dark fabrics to absorb heat, and they are not simply here to climb the mountain, they are here to do things.
Therefore, wearing dark clothes on the white snow-capped mountains is too obvious, and I can see them from afar, which does not meet Li Zimu's expectations.
Special alpine shoes, specially used to climb ice and snow mountains, the bottom has dense small nails, mainly from the non-slip, the cloth extending from the cuff can be combined with the cuff of the pants to prevent snow from getting into the cuff, not only warm, but also waterproof, in addition, the sole also adds an additional layer of crampons.
The special hiking backpack is designed to fit the clothes, and it is lightweight and has a large capacity, so it is necessary to use it.
Ice axes are mainly used to climb ice and snow slopes, as well as to repair roads, and if necessary, they can also be used to defend and immobilize the body to avoid skidding.
Iron locks, main ropes, auxiliary ropes, steel cones, oxygen cylinders, and some other messy little things, plum wood are all sorted out and placed where they should be placed.
"Well, I feel that our equipment is more luxurious and high-end than those of professional mountaineers, and I like this white dress very much......"
Zhuge Yinglong said with a smile, while sorting out his clothes, he learned the practice of Li Zimu and put things in a reasonable position.
It can be seen that Li Zimu is very experienced in mountaineering, everything is tightly organized, and the necessary things are placed in a place where they can be reached at the first time.
There is a partition curtain inside this tent, so the two sides do not disturb each other when they change clothes.
It took half an hour just to sort out the equipment, mainly because it was the first time that Chi Ling and Pudding were dressed so tightly, and some things didn't know how to wear, how to tie leggings, etc., and Li Zimu needed to teach them one by one.
"Let's go!"
Zhuge Yinglong shouted loudly at Mount Everest and said, after all, it was the first time to climb the snow mountain, and it felt very good, like a warrior ready to go, ready at any time, just waiting for Li Zimu, the commander, to give an order, and immediately rushed forward.
"If you don't want to die, it's better not to yell"
Li Zimu glanced at him and said lightly, the most taboo thing about climbing the snow mountain is to yell, because the sonic vibration may cause an avalanche, and the interest rate is very large, like Zhuge Yinglong's voice, if it goes to a higher place, it will cause an avalanche in 99 percent......
"Oh oh......" Zhuge Yinglong scratched his head and said embarrassedly, he also knew the seriousness of this problem, but he just forgot it because of an excitement in his heart.
"Let's go" Li Zimu nodded and said as he looked at the three people who had already packed up, and walked out of the tent first, it was ten o'clock in the morning, and they had to come back at seven or eight o'clock in the afternoon.
It's better not to be on the mountain when it's dark, the snow mountain is not like other mountains, it's difficult to go up the mountain here, it's even more difficult to go down, and the difficulty coefficient has risen geometrically, so they have to rush back before dark.
