Chapter 144: Overnight at the top of the mountain

Zheng Xudong is now in the Rocky Mountains, he checked before setting off the highest peak of the Rocky Mountains is a peak called Longs Peak, the mountain is 14,225 feet high, about 3,700 meters high, this is also a peak in China, the famous Dongyue Mount Tai in China is only 1545 meters, this long peak can fit two Mount Tai.

At this time, it was this Jiujiu Peak that appeared directly in front of Zheng Xudong, and he rode off the road on a motorcycle and rode towards the peak with a small slope.

Coming to the foot of the mountain, I can't ride it after riding up for less than 200 meters, the peak is full of big rocks, and there is very little green vegetation, which is also the origin of its name Rocky Mountains, because rock means stone in English.

He looked around and saw that there was no sign of human activity on the desolate rocks around him, so he put his motorcycle into space, put on his military backpack, although it was mostly empty, and began to climb to the top of the mountain.

Jiujiu Peak is characterized by a high and gentle slope, which is conducive to climbing upwards, but this also scores people, Zheng Xudong He is full of physical strength, and it is not difficult to climb such a peak, but the crawling time will be very long.

When he climbed to a third of the way, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, after all, in the morning, he first discussed the establishment of the company, and then sent the three of Ivanka away, packed their bags, adjusted the motorcycle, and set off again It was almost eleven o'clock.

After more than three hours of riding on the road on his own Kawasaki 450 EXC and eating something while refueling, it was already past five o'clock when he reached the third of the mountain, and he was ready to climb to the top in one breath with the strength he is now having, then spend the night at the summit, and get up tomorrow morning and descend the north slope on the other side of the summit.

Now that he has a direction to move, he began to climb up to the top of the mountain, as the height of the mountain increases, the oxygen content of the air also begins to decline, even Zheng Xudong begins to feel some difficulty breathing, plus climbing upward, he feels that his body has begun to sweat, this is the first time he has sweated because of the large amount of exercise since taking the genetic medicine.

Finally, at nine o'clock in the evening, he climbed to the top of the mountain, and the most surprising thing to him was that there were already people on the top of the mountain, because a tent was supported on the small flat ground on the top of the mountain, and an electric light was lit in the tent, reflecting a figure inside, and from the figure of the figure, he judged that it should be a woman.

His arrival clearly alarmed the people inside the tent, and he could tell that the people inside were nervous, when suddenly the shadow of a spear appeared in the light, and he heard a "click", which was the sound of a TM shotgun being loaded.

He was afraid that the women in this tent would shoot outside indiscriminately, and there was no place to dodge in this small place, and if they were wounded on the top of this mountain, they would have to wait for death. So he quickly spoke up, "Don't shoot, I'm an outdoor hiker." ”

I saw the woman in the tent holding a gun in one hand, and carefully unlocked the zipper of the tent with the other hand, first opened a gap ten centimeters long, stretched out the barrel of the gun and pointed it at him, and then revealed a blue eye in the gap, he was stared at by this eye for thirty seconds, and the person inside said: "Why are you here, barren mountains and mountains." Say, are you a human or a demon?"

Zheng Xudong didn't laugh when he heard it, and he forgot that there was still a shotgun pointed at him? "Why do you Americans also watch Journey to the West?

The laughter echoed among the mountain peaks, refusing to disperse for a long time. The girl in the tent knew that she was a little nervous when she heard the laughter, and pointed the muzzle of the gun to the ground, but she didn't put it away, and now it can only prove that this is a person, but maybe it's not a good person, so she asked again, "What are you doing here?"

Zheng Xudong has already determined that the woman in front of him will not shoot at will and put his mind at ease, he is afraid that if he encounters a nervous woman, no matter what he sees, he will shoot first, then he will be the most wronged person who has died since "".

"Why should I tell you? I don't know you!" he said, putting down the big backpack behind him, finding a place that was quite flat five meters away from the woman's tent, and took out his big tent and was about to unfold it.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you going to do? You're not going to be here ... The woman now saw that he didn't seem to be a threat, so she put the gun in her tent and walked over and asked.

"What you do here, I'll do here. Zheng Xudong had already started to fix the four corners of the tent, and since the top of the mountain was full of rocks, he took out the hammer and the tent's accessories from the space and began to nail them to the rocks.

"Hey, hey, hey, you can't pitch a tent here, I've already stayed here. The woman said to him.

Originally, Zheng Xudong didn't want to pay attention to her, a woman alone on the top of the mountain was afraid of extenuating circumstances, but her words immediately angered Zheng Xudong. He suddenly stood up from the ground, threw the hammer in his hand to the ground, and smashed a small spark on the ground with a "bang".

He walked up to the woman in a few steps, "Why can't I live here! If this mountain is your family's property, I'll leave at once." You don't let me go down the mountain now, look at this point in time, you let me go down from the mountain of more than 3,700 meters, do you want me to die?

The woman did not expect the man to come to her in a few steps, startled her, quickly dodged a few steps back, returned to the edge of the tent and took out the gun from inside, but the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the ground. Hearing the angry words of the man in front of her, she also felt that she was a little unreasonable, but she couldn't just let him lose it, so she raised her head and said strongly: "The most poisonous woman's heart, who are you talking about?"

Zheng Xudong didn't expect the woman in front of him to say this sentence in very standard Mandarin Chinese, "Hey, I didn't expect it to be a string!"

"Fart! That's what a dog calls a string! I know. I'm of mixed Chinese and Danish descent!" the woman said proudly, looking up.

"Mixed Chinese and Danish?" suddenly made Zheng Xudong confused, he heard it for the first time, and he didn't react to what this "Dan" was? Could it be the Dandong of Huaxia?

"Mixed Chinese and Danish. The woman explained when she saw that he didn't understand.

"Then your father must be Danish, and your mother is Chinese. Zheng Xudong guessed.

"How do you know?" the woman asked, confused.

"Because you don't speak Mandarin, you can't tell you're Asian anyway. You have inherited almost all the characteristics of the Norse appearance, except for this long brown-black hair. With big blue eyes, white skin, big skeletons, and muscular, you wouldn't be able to climb to the top of the mountain if you didn't have these, right?" Zheng Xudong analyzed.

"You guessed it, you're amazing. I'm a photojournalist for the American Geographic magazine, and you're... I see you so much like ... Saying that, she approached Zheng Xudong, in order to confirm that she was right, she took out her mobile phone and turned on the flashlight function inside, and shone Zheng Xudong's face, she quickly recognized it, "Ah! You are that magic boy from Huaxia, your name is Zheng Xudong, right?"

"Hey, now that you recognize it, just take the flashlight away, my eyes can't see clearly, and then you can put the gun down, am I so insecure!" Zheng Xudong said to her with a smile. The atmosphere at the top of the mountain immediately eased, "By the way, I haven't asked your name yet, isn't it a little unfair that you know mine and I don't know yours!"

"Ah! You're right. She put her phone away, then put her shotgun in the tent and went outside and stretched out her hand to him, "My name is Cindy Feng." The surname Feng is both my father's and my mother's. What a coincidence!"

Zheng Xudong shook hands with her and said, "It's a coincidence." Well, now that we've met, I'm going to camp. Then he went back to his tent and used his hammer to drive the expansion bolt, and although the stone at the top of the hill was hard, he was more powerful, and smashed it into one of the stones in two blows.

Then Cindy came up to him and said, "Why are you playing expansion bolts, it's too exaggerated." ”

Zheng Xudong glanced at her tent, although it was dark, he still saw it clearly, smiled and said: "Are you sure that at the top of the mountain of more than 3,700 meters, your few small nails can fix your tent, and you are not afraid that the mountain wind will blow you even down the mountain at night." That's it, you still dare to spend the night alone on the top of such a high mountain, who gave you confidence. Besides, don't look at the end of June and the beginning of July, but on such a high mountaintop, it will definitely drop to zero degrees at night, are you sure you can get through?" After speaking, he glanced at her thin outdoor clothes, ignored her and continued to fix the tent at the four corners, and after fixing the four corners, he set up the tent.

His words made Cindy stunned in place, to be honest, she used to be a lover of outdoor travel, almost everywhere, after all, her profession is a photojournalist, footprints almost all over the world, this time she received a magazine assignment to shoot the sunset and sunrise of the highest peak of the Rocky Mountains, Jiujiu Peak, she started climbing the mountain at ten o'clock in the morning, and at noon she simply ate a bite of bread on the mountainside and began to climb again, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain at three o'clock in the afternoon, catching up with the sunset time, and the heavenly palace is beautiful, there is no wind and rain, so the sunset shooting went smoothly, she wanted to go down the mountain after shooting the sunrise tomorrow morning。

But when she heard this man's words, she also muttered a little, she hadn't camped in the mountains before, but it was a few hundred meters, a thousand meters or so of the peaks, and she didn't encounter strong winds or cool down. Besides, it was June and July, so she didn't think about it so much, and she came to the top of the mountain with a tent of more than 3,700 meters. Now she was starting to wonder how she was going to get through the night.

Cindy stood there in a daze, at this time Zheng Xudong had already set up the tent, he put his backpack into the tent, took out a piece of excellent steak the size of his palm and three fingers thick from the space, and weighed it in his hand, hey! There are about three catties, and it is covered with marbles. Then I took out a small pan, a simple gas tank, a small piece of butter, pepper, salt, plates, chopsticks, knives, Margaux... Seeing the ingredients in a tent, he laughed, "The space is in hand, I have the world!"

Now that there was no wind outside, he took everything out of the tent and laid them on the ground one by one, and took out a fluorescent lamp with a battery and set it up for dinner.

Watching him take things out of the tent in the same way, Cindy looked stupid, forgetting about his troubles just now, and watching his performance like magic.

"Oh my God, is your backpack a robot cat's pocket, how can you hold so many things, and there is even red wine from Château Margaux, it's too TM inhuman!" she looked at him with some envy and was about to cook, and then she saw Zheng Xudong's hand flipped, and a disposable lighter appeared in his hand, and it looked like it was produced by a small factory in Jiangsu, Zhejiang Province, Huaxia, at most one RMB per piece. Suddenly, she said as frightened: "Hey, hey, hey! You don't want to make a fire here, and you're not afraid of causing a forest fire... ”

Seeing the boy in front of her looking at her like a fool, she looked around and laughed herself.
