300. How to choose (third update)
The second day of training was very smooth, and although the ice towers along the way seemed so dangerous, very few people actually died here. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There is an iceberg cliff between Camp 2 and Camp 3, and a rope of 1.5 kilometers must be erected between the West Valley and Camp 3, which needs to be nailed to the rock wall or ice wall so that everyone can have them as protection when passing through the cliff.
Otherwise, if you fall from here, you will be crushed.
The three teams discussed sending 2 people each day to build ropes, and at this time, someone wanted Ren He to take the initiative to take on more work, but Ren He just glanced at the person who spoke and said: "Distribute the workload fairly, I don't think I should do more than others." ”
It is true that he has not been affected by the alpine environment until now, but this does not mean that he should take more risks than others, he is here to climb Mount Everest, not to be a living Lei Feng.
He won't be lazy when he should do it, but Ren He, who shouldn't do it, won't do much at all, especially when he is kidnapped and done.
It's like being forced to donate when you're doing charity: you have a lot of money, so you should donate more.
There is no such reason, Ren He is not afraid of anyone making trouble with him here, saying something unpleasant, at this altitude, it is easy for him to fight with 20 normal people alone......
Ren He also understands that these three or four people actually look at his young age and think that he will be a little stupid, but this society is that when you treat others as fools, you yourself will become a real fool.
So in the end, everyone took turns to build ropes, and Ren He did work much faster than others under the same workload, although he had no experience in climbing snowy mountains, but now he is afraid that he is a real master in rock climbing skills.
For Ren He, who used to climb the building with his bare hands without any protective measures, it was a great happiness for him to be able to tie a rope to work at heights......
And at the same time as the Heavenly Punishment System released the task, the skills of climbing the snow mountain were all instilled in his mind, although he had never climbed the snow mountain, although these skills did not include things like a road map, but the basic skills were much more skilled than others, even if it was a mountaineering veteran, it was similar to what he did, and Ren He was still getting more and more proficient.
The work was actually very rough, and the side of the cliff was not as narrow as expected, and in some places it could even be passed by two people at the same time, so the three teams only took 11 days to complete the 1.5-kilometer rope construction work.
During this period, there will be falling rocks from time to time, if you are hit by this stone, the person is basically useless, and it is even possible to hit the head and die on the spot.
Ren He had seen a stone the size of a TV whistling towards him, but he was still far away, and he easily dodged it, and at that time many people gasped, if this stone was above their heads, it was estimated that they would have become a landmark.
By the time they reached Camp 3, the Sherpas, who had been at the top of the ropes, had already set up their tents on a platform carved out of the ice slope.
At this time, the clouds were flowing rapidly in the mountains at their feet, and Mount Everest was still in the middle of the clouds above them, knowing that this was already 7,240 meters above sea level.
Looking down, it was no longer the ground as far as the eye could see, but the flowing clouds.
At this time, Ren He finally encountered something that affected his body functions, sunlight rays!
Normally, when we stay under the clouds, we don't feel how scary this sunlight is, because the reflection of the clouds blocks most of them. There, you won't get sunburned easily even if you don't wear sunscreen.
However, in Camp 3 at an altitude of 7,240 meters, everything Ren He felt was completely different from the ground, in his impression, it should be very cold, but when those rays shone down during the day, it would make the temperature very hot!
These rays shone on him, and he was a little dizzy.
The people of the three teams all found out at the same time that Ren He had finally stopped a little, they were finally a little balanced, and this product was finally affected! This was originally something that had nothing to do with them, but they were inexplicably a little excited, at least it proved that they were not so weak......
However, it was in Camp 3 that someone finally had another problem, and Xia Boyu keenly discovered that one of the members of their team was suffering from a mountain cerebral hemorrhage, which broke out without any signs, and once it broke out, it must be treated in time, otherwise death is the only outcome.
There was no choice but to let the Sherpas send that teammate down.
However, when we arrived at Camp 3, when Mount Everest seemed to be within reach, someone put forward a suggestion to overturn everyone's plan: "The more than 20 Sherpas hired are carrying oxygen cylinders, and since they have arrived here, I think everyone is actually in good shape, at least much stronger than when I came here last year, why don't you take the opportunity to sprint directly to Mount Everest?!" ”
Many people's eyes are bright, what are they coming here for, isn't it just for Mount Everest, now the vertical altitude distance from Mount Everest is only 1600 meters, it seems that it is really within reach and the oxygen cylinder has been transported, why can't you just sprint this time?
In fact, everyone has had enough of these ten days, and no one wants to do this pain again, it's like writing a document that has already been written halfway through, and someone tells you that you have to delete it and write it again, would you be willing?
And the three team leaders are also thinking about this, yes, since they are all here and everyone is in good shape, why not try to sprint?
Although it would be safer to practice once, how could they, as team leaders, completely ignore the opinions of the team members? That's all about the financiers.
Except for Xia Boyu's team, the other two teams are modeled after a mountaineering consulting company, where the team members pay money to climb Mount Everest, and they are responsible for providing necessary assistance to the team members.
Now there are two options: go down the mountain and return to the 6000-meter camp to rest, and continue until you reach the top!
At this fork in the road, the final decision of the team leaders is the weather, the weather is so good in the past two days, it is too suitable for reaching the top, this kind of weather is a bit unavoidable!
That night, the three team leaders announced their decision at the same time: "Go straight to the top!" ”
Ren He's eyes lit up when he heard this decision, and he was in the best state even if he arrived here, he didn't feel too much discomfort, except for the ray problem during the day.
So when he thought that he was really only one step away from Mount Everest, he was already excited!
