Chapter 740 [Nature and Man] (II)
Most people will say that money is not omnipotent, but most of the time money can play a decisive role, for Zhang Yang's 10,000 yuan, Tsering Wangjie decided to lead the way for him, climbed Mount Everest overnight, Tsering Wangjie also has conditions, he can't climb to the top with Zhang Yang, he doesn't think Zhang Yang can reach the top of the village, he will try his best to do it, take Zhang Yang to enjoy the ice peak wonders that others can't see.
Tsering Wangjie told Zhang Yang that the straight-line distance from the base camp of Mount Everest to the top of Mount Everest is 19 kilometers, and if it is on flat ground, this distance is certainly nothing. But all the way up, the more up, the more difficult and difficult, they are located in the Everest base camp, the altitude is 3212 meters, this is already the farthest place that ordinary tourists can reach, the base camp to Mount Everest on the road, will first pass through a two-square-kilometer river beach, here is the base camp of the mountaineering teams ready to go, referred to as than, between the Everest base camp and the comparison that ordinary tourists can reach, there is a dividing line built up with small stones, and all people who have not been approved to climb the mountain are not allowed to cross this protection line. It is impossible for people who do not have a mountaineering certificate to come here, and Zhang Yang does not have a mountaineering permit, but for the sake of 10,000 yuan, Tsering Wangjie took him around the protection line, their surroundings are pitch black, the mountaineering camp does not have any lights, the mountaineering professional team members who come to climb have fallen asleep, they want to accumulate physical strength for tomorrow's climbing, there is a mountain in front of them, looking up at the night sky, it is dark, standing here feels like standing in a wellhead, there is no wind in the middle of the night.
Tsering Wangjie strode forward with Zhang Yang, it can be seen from Zhang Yang's personal equipment that although Zhang Yang is well equipped, he is only a layman in mountaineering, when crossing this camp, Tsering Wangjie has always remained silent, until he left this camp far behind, he said: "From here, let's start climbing, I can take you to an altitude of about d meters, at most you can only go there." He looked at the equipment on Zhang Yang's body and added, "If you still want to die." ”
Zhang Yang smiled: "You just need to take me to the route you pointed out to her, my purpose is to find someone, not to climb Mount Everest!" ”
Tsering Wangjie said: "Looking for someone? With such a big mountain, you can be sure that she will definitely go up the mountain? ”
Zhang Chang said: "I can be sure!" ”
Tsering Wangjie sighed, if this girl went up the mountain yesterday and has been more than twenty hours by now, it is hard to imagine that a girl can go up the mountain alone and stay in the mountain for so long.
Zhang Yang said: "You are not the only guide in this area of Mount Everest, will someone else take her up the mountain?" ”
Tsering Wangjie shook his head and said: "Impossible, we will all communicate with each other, whoever takes how many people up the mountain, who goes to where, everyone will be connected." If someone took her up the mountain, I couldn't possibly not know. ”
Zhang Yang said: "Does anyone know that you took me up the mountain?" ”
Tsering Wangjie said: "Hmph, my uncle knows that tomorrow he will take the group of tourists I took up the mountain." Speaking of this, Tsering Wangjie couldn't help but complain: "Actually, I'd rather take twenty ordinary tourists than bring you one." ”
Zhang Yang smiled, this guy has a bit of a cheap and obedient momentum, bringing an ordinary tourist is only 100 yuan, and bringing himself to get 10,000 yuan, such a deal, it is estimated that he will not encounter a few times in his life.
The mountain road ahead gradually became rugged, Tsering Wangjie was surprised to find that Zhang Yang did not have any altitude sickness, during this journey, he walked like flying, there was no breathlessness at all, Tsering Wangjie also had to sigh Zhang Yang's super physical strength, two hours later, they had come to the Everest snow line, which is about six thousand meters above sea level.
Because the further up is all the towering ice and snow, although it is still late at night, but it gives people a kind of illusion of dawn, Tsering Wangjie put on goggles, Zhang Yang also put on, he wore this set of mountaineering clothes and personal equipment are all prepared by Zhao Tiancai, all of which are world-class brands.
Tsering Wangjie said: "Don't speak loudly, let alone shout loudly, on the snowy mountains, your voice can easily cause an avalanche." ”
Zhang Yang looked down at the ground, there were a lot of footprints in the snow morning, this place has just arrived at the snow line of Mount Everest, and most people can reach here.
Tsering Wangjie said: "The more you go up, the fewer footprints, as the weather warms, the snow line is also constantly going up, and when the season comes, the snow line can retreat to about 7,000 meters, when the mountain climbing is the easiest, now is the most dangerous time, the spring is warm, the avalanche season." ”
Zhang Yang looked at the night sky from afar, a bright moon poured down a cold clear light on Mount Everest, the peaks were covered with snow, and the surrounding world was all immersed in the snow and moonscape, with the snow light, he could see the surrounding scenery several miles away, but he couldn't see An Yuchen's figure, Zhang Yang called silently from the bottom of his heart, demon, where are you?
……
An Yuchen is indeed on Mount Everest, she climbed the mountain early this morning, and now she has been on the mountain for nearly 20 hours, An Yuchen has reached an altitude of 7,500 meters, she set up a tent on the snow, sat in the tent, hugged her knees, and quietly looked at the small lamp. Mount Everest is the closest place on earth to the sky, and in this pure land, she tries to forget everything in the past, but when she actually comes here, she finds that instead of forgetting some things, she has become more and more clear. She hadn't slept for two days in a row, and since she came here, she didn't dare to fall asleep, afraid that she would fall asleep like this, and never woke up. It seems to be windy outside, An Yuchen hides her body in a sleeping bag, tomorrow she will continue to march to the top of the mountain, no one in this world knows where she is going, she chooses to leave this world quietly, and chooses to end her life in the purest place, which can be regarded as a successful end to her short life, but An Yuchen still has worries in her heart, the person she thinks about the most is still Zhang Yang, I don't know if Zhang Yang will be sad after her death, and after a few years, will he remember, There is such a mischievous and willful female apprentice...... Tears slipped down An Yuchen's pretty face quietly, she quickly wiped away her tears as if she was afraid of being seen, and said to herself: "I don't cry!" I'm not afraid! ”
Outside is getting brighter and brighter, An Yuchen drilled out of the tent, the golden morning light was projected from the sky, the emerald glacier, the jewel-like ice tower, constituted a wonderful picture, conjuring up a scenery that should not belong to the world, but the magnificent scenery in front of him revealed an indescribable loneliness and coldness! In addition to listening to her own breathing, An Yuchen's eyes were white, and she couldn't see anything alive at all, and the cold wind blew her breathlessly, and she seemed to be about to suffocate.
An Yuchen looked at the summit of Mount Everest, in the haze she seemed to see the peak of the snow and fog, she decided to continue to move forward, shaking off the snowflakes rolled up by the cold wind, and at the same time shaking off the last attachment to the world, she wants to forget all the mundane things, forget family, friendship and love that has not yet budded...... The wind is very strong, mixed with snowflakes and ice particles mercilessly fluttering on the mountaineer's body, Tsering Wangjie uses trekking poles to march hard, Zhang Yang follows behind him, until now Zhang Yang is still walking on foot, without using any climbing tools, which makes Tsering Wangjie feel quite surprised, from his understanding of Zhang Yang, this guy should not have undergone systematic mountaineering I practice, but he showed super physical strength and super high climbing skills, so that Tsering Wangjie suspected that he was a mountaineering master.
Tsering Wangjie led Zhang Yang to the back of a huge ice rock, where he dragged to shelter from the wind, Tsering Wangjie took off his mask, even Tibetans like him who have lived in the mountains for a long time felt a little difficult to breathe, but on the other hand, Zhang Yang still looked calm and breathed freely. Tsering Wangjie gasped twice and said, "Your physique is so good!" ”
Zhang Yang smiled: "It's okay, it's better than ordinary people!" ”
Tsering Wangjie pointed to the ground under their feet and said, "There should be someone camped here!" He bowed down and observed carefully for a while, and said, "I should have walked for a while, and the traces are basically covered by ice and snow." ”
Zhang Yang had no experience in this area, so he couldn't see anything, he said in a low voice: "It must be her!" ”
Tsering Wangjie said: "There are a lot of people who come here to climb the mountain, and you can't just rely on the traces of camping to conclude that it is the person you are looking for!" He pointed ahead and said, "Let's get to the Ice Blade Beam further on, and that's the farthest distance I can lead the way." ”
Zhang Yang looked in the direction he pointed, but saw in the distance, an icicle towering on the steep slope, like a huge ice blade in the mountain, the name of the ice blade beam is really very vivid.
Tsering Wangjie said so many words in one breath, feeling that it took all his strength, he began to gasp for breath, and after a while he eased up, covered his head and looked at the sky and said: "The clouds are not quite right, there may be wind and snow in the afternoon, I advise you to go back, go on like this, if you encounter wind and snow, you will be trapped in the mountains, and it will be too late to regret it." ”
Zhang Yang said: "Let's continue walking, and wait until we reach the ice blade beam." ”
Tsering Wangjie didn't expect Zhang Yang to be so stubborn, and he would never look back, he shook his head helplessly, he rested in place for a while, and continued to walk towards the ice blade beam with Zhang Yang.
