Unlike the low-lying shield volcanoes around it, Niragongo is a layered volcano with steep slopes. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info two older volcanoes, 'Baruta' and 'Shahr', partially covered by the Niragongo volcano in the south and north.

The entire crater is over 2,000 meters in diameter and 244 meters deep to accommodate the next Empire State Building.

When looking down at the lava lake from the crater rim, be careful with every step you take. Especially at night, the beauty of the lava lake below has a breathtaking magic that makes you involuntarily move forward step by step.

One more step, it is a catastrophe from which it will never be recovered.

The lava lake is even more thrilling to observe in the dark, and the smoke and the mist evaporating from the rain falling on the lava billows up and fills the air.

There were no birds singing and flowers here, and there was no red speech rolling in the black, and there was not a trace of life.

When people step on this volcanic port, it is as if they have stepped into the gates of hell.

Despite this, thousands of tourists still come here every year. While people are amazed by the majesty of nature, they are also amazed by the spectacular structure of the volcanic lava lake.

The red magma lake illuminates the entire dark crater valley in red, as if you can see the red magma flowing on the cracked earth.

Chen Ergou also sighed with emotion: "Friends, the lava lake is one of the most magnificent volcanic activities, but few people can see its true face. Because there are very few volcanoes with lava lakes in the world at any given time, there are currently five volcanoes with lava lakes, located in Hawaii, Nicaragua, Ethiopia, and Italy, but none are more impressive than the Nyiragongo volcano. ”

"It's the largest lava lake on Earth. ”

The audience in the live broadcast room can type even though they can't speak.

Seeing such a scene, it is also very enjoyable, and the rolling barrage shows that they are in the same mood -

"It's beautiful. "It's not in vain to wait so long. "It's worth it. "The anchor has worked hard. ”

Chen Ergou smiled: "It looks like a scorching cauldron, with a diameter of more than 750 feet, and the temperature on the surface is close to 800 degrees Celsius. ”

"People who live in cities rarely think about what kind of world is hidden under our feet. Some scientists believe that the volcanic magma here comes from the extreme depths of the earth, deeper than all other sources of volcanic lava...... Or, simply from Inner Earth. ”

The sky was devoid of light, and several electric lights with backup power were erected on the top of the hill.

Their camp is on a small piece of flat land less than five meters from the crater, with a 45-degree angle.

Moreover, the range of the flat land is very narrow, and at night you walk very carefully, and if you accidentally step out of the flat ground, you will roll down the rugged volcanic rocks.

At night, the temperature at the summit plummets to 3°C to 5°C, and the wind howls.

But the tented adventurers were excited, eating their little food and overlooking the spectacular lava lake below in the crater.

Some were ill-prepared, wearing only thin clothes and wet pants, and they were frozen with snot.

Fortunately, the rain only stopped after a while, and everyone gathered around the tent, exchanged some food with each other, and even started a small party.

Despite the barren location and the apocalyptic scene all around, the people in front of them were just as happy.

Chen Ergou led the audience around and found a cross inserted in the strange rock on the top of the mountain in one corner, and said, "Have you seen this cross?"

"It's beautiful, it's spectacular, but it's also dangerous. This cross is a memorial to a Hong Kong woman who once fell into the crater of a volcano here. ”

"It's hard to find beautiful scenery, and more people will never go abroad for the rest of their lives. Even if you get out, you have to take a risk to see such a spectacular view. You're lucky enough to sit in front of your computer and see the lava lake in the heart of Africa. So take advantage of the opportunity now, everyone should take a screenshot and cherish this opportunity. If you have bamboo, you can send a wave, and if you have a monthly pass, you can also vote!/^_^"

Needless to say, someone has already intercepted a lot of beautiful pictures.

He fixed the camera and let the audience enjoy the charm of the lava lake:

The lava lake at night feels like you're at the end of the world, especially when the fog rises around it, the firelight becomes hazy, and the entire crater sky is reflected red, as if the gates to hell have been opened.

The Bible's imagery of hell is so consistent with everything at this moment. And the place where they are at the moment is at the mouth of hell, and they can see it very clearly.

I can't get enough of this scene.

The magma was boiling, burning, splashing, falling, blazing, rumbling.

Occasionally, dark red magma erupted in the billowing black smoke, and a loud rumbling sound collided and echoed in the funnel-shaped crater, and the echo rumbled for a long time, and the burnt red magma was pushed out of the magma lake and flowed to the lava platform more than ten meters below.

The shocking lava flow left fiery red scratches on the dark earth.

Everything is difficult to describe in words.

That night, everyone slept in sleeping bags, and although it was close to the crater rim, it didn't feel warm. Sometimes I do feel the heat, but more often than not, the pervasive wind blows away the little bit of temperature that the body has managed to recover.

Even with a sleeping bag, it feels very, very cold, so cold that the sleeping bag is ice, and in the tent too, the wind comes in through the cracks in the ground.

Fortunately, Chen Ergou's sleeping bag is produced by the system, the quality is good, and I have slept in colder places than this, but it doesn't matter.

It's just that Chen Xiaohu and Zhang Zhengyang didn't close their eyes all night, and they have been looking forward to the dawn.

When the broadcast started again the next day, the crowd of viewers saw several long ropes hanging from the crater. Chen Ergou and several other expedition adventurers had already put on neat fireproof suits and masks, and were preparing to descend along the rope to the volcanic lava platform below.

"Friends, we're ready to descend to the lava platform below and even get some of the lava lakes up close. ”

"A few friends from the expedition team asked me to collect fresh magma samples from the lava lake if I could. It sounds crazy, even though I was wearing this suit that would protect me from the incredible heat at the edge of the lava lake, but not if I were in direct contact with the lava lake. ”

"But it makes a lot of sense, because from the fresh magma samples, you can see how deep the lava ejects from the ground. Truth be told, if I could own a lava lake rock that ejects from the depths of the planet, it would be a good collector's item. ”

"I'll do what I can. ”

He smiled and began to beckon Chen Xiaohu and Zhang Zhengyang to walk down.

It's a long way down, after all, it's big enough to accommodate the next Empire State Building, and it's already obscured by the heat halfway through, and it looks thrilling. Originally, it was just Chen Ergou who went down alone, but the experience of rappelling to the lava lake this time was extraordinary, and neither of them wanted to miss it, so they went down together to experience it.

For Chen Ergou, this descent seems thrilling, but it will not surpass the cliff climbs he has experienced.

On the other side, the expedition team adventurers and photographers also began to descend slowly.

It took about half an hour for Chen Ergou to be the first to come to the lava platform below the volcano. As soon as I arrived here, a raging heat wave hit my face, which made people feel more real. The ground beneath his feet was twisted, like a piece of black, burnt dry. You can also feel its temperature when you wear heat-insulated shoes on your feet.

The camera zooms out and flies straight above the lava lake.

At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room was boiling, and they witnessed the rolling lava mud so closely, and the black large area seemed to be rolling and tilting the earth's plates, and the red magma was separated in between.

Tumbling and surging.

There was a surging crash, rolling, and burning explosions......

Under 3D high-definition photography, it is still such a close-up experience, and those who look directly at it gasp.

"666, I can brag to others in the future, I've seen the magma lake. ”

"It's really like a big pot, if you set up another hot pot, it will be ironclad. ”

"Streamer, thank you so much!!You're such a nice guy!!Gave us such a spectacular lava experience. ”

"The gates of hell have been opened, come out, Hellthree!"

There were some hot cracks in the ground everywhere, and he placed the kettle at the mouth of a fire, and within a few minutes the heat generated by the volcano boiled the water in the kettle, sprinkled some dandelions and boiled them together, and he could also make a cup of dandelion hot tea.

"Hey, Chen, you're coming down too fast. ”

Behind him, Olivier got off the platform with heavy camera equipment on his back, wheezing heavily. "What are you doing, making tea?"

Chen Ergou smiled: "Do you want a cup, the tea brewed by the crater geothermal heat?"

"Oh my God, that's a brilliant idea. It would be nice to also have a hot cup of tea here!"

Chen Ergou poured him a cup with the lid of the kettle, and the photographer praised him repeatedly.

At this time, Chen Xiaohu and Zhang Zhengyang also followed, and they couldn't close their mouths after feeling the magnificence of the lava lake up close.

When he was about to greet Chen Ergou, he suddenly found that he had set up a frying pan on a gap in a lava platform.

Just squatted there, chatting with the audience, and began cutting sausages and eggs.

Everyone who saw this scene had a jaw-dropping sense of wrongdoing.

Later, several adventurers widened their eyes and exaggerated: "Wow, you are too good to bake food in the Nyiragongo crater." "They feel like they're just bursting.

In the live broadcast room, the screen was full of "666!"

"Haha, when I introduce myself to people in the future, I can also say that my brother is a man who has grilled sausages in the lava lake of the crater. Chen Ergou smiled and said: "Xiaohu, Lao Zhang, come here, you have a good mouth." ”

The heat generated by the volcano quickly turned the food brown and fluffy, and the rich aroma wafted throughout the lava platform area.

Descending to the lava lake of Nyiragongo is remarkable enough to attract people's attention, but barbecuing with the heat of the volcano is unheard of, and it is like dancing with death.

How big a brain hole should it be, how thick a nerve should it be, to have this kind of thought?

Perhaps only a strange person can have such a crazy move.

After tasting the sausage, they went about to bow down to him.

It's probably the most dangerous frying pan in the world, and these adventurers who dare to go deep into the crater are not cowardly, and they can't wait to experience what it's like to "dance with death".

All of a sudden, the lava platform beneath the crater was bustling with activity.

(I'm very sorry, I felt better yesterday, and I also got injections and pills.) But I didn't expect it to suddenly deteriorate today, with a severe fever of 39 degrees, dizziness, weakness in my limbs, and no taste for anything I eat. I would have liked to take a leave of absence today, but I must not stop changing and cannot set this precedent! I'm sorry, but I only have one shift today. I'm not making excuses, please allow me to slow down......! Tearful eyes!Blue thin shiitake mushroom!Cheeky begging for a monthly pass!)
