Lao Gu and Jiang Qi both looked up in surprise at Qin Zhen who was hanging on the ice cliff and drilling pitons, and then hurriedly climbed up according to the distance Qin Zhen had opened. In this way, their order became Qin Zhen in the first and Jiang Qi in the last.

At this time, Qin Zhen felt pretty good. In the past, whenever he used the power of Cangjie, Qin Zhen felt that his consciousness was very vague. But this time it was different, he was very conscious, and he could even clearly feel the muscles in his arms exploding in overload.

Lao Gu followed behind Qin Zhen, and shouted at him from time to time: "Qin Zhen! You can fucking take it easy! If you fall, you're going to kill me first! For the sake of the brother behind you, be careful! ”

For people like Lao Gu who can't say good things well, only Qin Zhen's lifelong friendship can understand his true intentions. Otherwise, he will have the heart to kick him to death!

Because he understood, Qin Zhen continued to climb up at this time, and said pretending to be relaxed: "Wouldn't it be easy for you to smash you to death?" Don't worry, we'll all be fine! Don't be intimidated by the name of Mount Everest, it's definitely not the most dangerous mountain. ”

Lao Gu also knew that Qin Zhen was relieving everyone's nervousness, so he replied cooperatively: "Yo, do you still understand this?" Not to mention, this is something that is in the realm of the ground after all. If you still have the heart to talk about it at this time, we don't mind if you are playing around at this time. ”

"There are levels of difficulty in climbing. Snow-capped mountains with low altitudes, few ice crevasses, and few avalanches are considered entry-level. For example, the four girls and the two peaks, Haba Snow Mountain, and so on. After that, there are those with elevated elevations, complex terrain, and climbing sections. It's kind of advanced. For example, Altun Mountain, Qi'er Mountain, etc. Then there is the extremely professional level, with high altitude, extremely deadly dangers such as dark river glaciers, ice cracks, ice cliffs, and abnormal climate changes. For example, Lhotse, Everest, Shisha Bangma and so on. When it comes to these peaks, it's no longer about difficulty and height, it's about mortality. Among them, Mount Everest is the highest, with a mortality rate of 15 percent. ”

"Damn! That's ten people have to die one and a half! You even said it wasn't dangerous! Is there a higher level? Lao Gu panted and scolded. However, such a relaxed conversation really lightened their mental burden a lot. This is also the reason why Lao Gu and Qin Zhen chatted at this time.

"Of course there are higher levels. The level of extreme professionalism is the level that we seem to be dying, but for them it is the level that conquers and challenges the limit with their lives. For example, the Four Girls Peak, Gongga Peak, and the world's second Qiaogori Peak. It is also recognized as the most difficult K2 in the international mountaineering community. These places have a mortality rate of nearly 50 percent. In Gonggar Snow Mountain, the mortality rate is 80 percent. In comparison, don't you think Mount Everest is relatively safe? Although Qin Zhen was a little gasped, he didn't feel tired. Chatting like this, there is no excessive nervousness. It also made him a lot easier.

At this height, Lao Gu didn't dare to look down. I could only listen to Qin Zhen's gossip. Then he tried to relax and said, "Ah...... If you want to say that, we really don't have anything to fear. Yes, the world's No. 1 is a paper tiger. Nothing to fear...... That's the highest level of mountaineering, right? ”

Qin Zhen took out the pitons again, looked at the cliff that was about to climb to the top, and his heart was full of energy. After digging into it hard, he replied: "No, the level after the death level is the top." ”

Lao Gu couldn't care about being scared anymore, and asked in surprise: "It's 80% of the mortality rate, isn't it top enough?" Are these mountaineers just looking for death? Wouldn't it be much more convenient to have a bottle of dichlorvos? Hey, there are so many warriors in this world! ”

This time, it was Jiang Qi, who was at the end, who took over: "There is the last top sector, which should be in the eyes of climbers, and there is a mountain with a 100% mortality rate." ”

Lao Gu was suddenly whetted by his appetite, and hurriedly grabbed the pitons and asked, "Damn!" And this kind of place? The mountain of death? Death on the ground? ”

Qin Zhen smiled: "Yes! Haven't we all crawled back and forth already? The last level of the mountain is Meili Snow Mountain. This is the only one, and no one is allowed to approach it. It has not yet reached the top. ”

After listening to Qin Zhen's words, everyone didn't speak. After sinking for a few minutes, Lao Gu said with emotion: "Qin Zhen, I have a feeling of pride and pride in what you said about it!" My slightly sad mood suddenly rose with infinite motivation and self-confidence! Then the last level of mountaineering in the/world has come out alive, isn't this Mount Everest just a drizzle! Brother, go you! Dude suddenly felt fearless and fearless! ”

Although Qin Zhen couldn't turn back, he smiled heartily. What I want is this energy, and what I want is this courage and confidence. If they don't even have this bit of energy, the next Lhotse Peak can only go more difficult.

Finally about to climb over the ice cliff, Qin Zhen shouted to add more fuel. In the end, the three of them finally climbed over the ice cliff without any danger.

As soon as he came up, Lao Gu patted his chest and said, "I'm not dead!" Oops I'm going, I/mom suddenly have a feeling of conquering the world now......"

Qin Zhen also slowed down his body, panting and looking at the surrounding environment.

The steep mountains and ice cliffs are all around it, and the steep slopes around it are full of traces of chutes after avalanches. Looking down, the glacier is crisscrossed, the surface of the glacier is cracked, and there are ice cracks that alternate light and dark everywhere. Qin Zhen couldn't help but shake his head, looking at this shocking and complex terrain in disbelief. It's really hard to believe that there is a temple in such a place?! It's like no one could have believed that there was a Kilimanjaro mountain on the equator. It seems like it's simply impossible.

Judging from the ice chutes around here, rolling rocks, ice avalanches, and avalanches must be very frequent. How can a building be preserved in such an unstable and dangerous zone?

Qin Zhen now suddenly felt that it was not very likely that there could be someone in the temple. There is no way there can be any human existence in this place. Because here you are always in mortal danger.

But not far in front of them, an ancient temple built on a mountain appeared impressively. Whether you believe it or not, whether it is unrealistic or not, this is the actual situation.

Lao Gu said in a daze: "Looking at this place now, I wonder how we found it in the first place?" You shouldn't be able to see it at all from the bottom of the mountain! ”

Saying this, Qin Zhen also felt a little strange. Looking back at the road from which I came, it has long been obscured by clouds and mist. How could they have discovered such a hidden temple in the first place? And when I think back to the process of discovering this temple at this moment, it is like watching a movie, not so real.

Jiang Qi asked at this time: "Do you say it is because of some special reason in us?" I also don't think I can see this place from the bottom of the mountain. ”

Qin Zhen couldn't think of a reason, so he simply shook his head and stopped thinking about this problem. These strange phenomena seem to them to be no longer strange. Whatever the particular reason, they don't care that much. Found it, that's it!

They were tidying up their climbing gear while observing the temple. It really doesn't feel like a place where people are. Unlike most Buddhist monasteries near snow-capped mountains in Tibet or Nepal, there are no incense burners, no colorful prayer flags, no wind horse flags, and no symbolic white pagoda pagodas. There is only one solitary temple, standing in a corner of the glacier.

Whether it's Xiao Suo or dust, in short, this place does look abnormal.

Lao Gu helped himself with his hood, then looked at the temple and said angrily: "If there is no one here, won't my elaborate masterpiece be wasted?!" I really can't accept it! ”

Qin Zhen sneered on the side and said, "In such an environment, if there are really people inside...... I'm more unacceptable! ”

Jiang Qi tightened his backpack at this time and said, "Let's go!" You can go in and see what is going on. If there were people, Lao Gu's disguise was not in vain. If there is no one, it will be more convenient for us to find the Buddha's bones. Whatever it is, let's go in first! ”

The three of them nodded to each other and walked in the direction of the temple. The weather seemed to be a joke, but now the wind and the sun are beautiful. It is difficult to see a clear sky on Mount Everest, maybe they feel clear at this time, just because they are in this mountain!

When they approached the temple gate, they found that the place where the white pagoda should normally stand, was indeed a statue here.

Qin Zhen approached to brush away the snow on it and looked at the statue carefully. This is the appearance of a goddess, with a graceful posture and a beautiful face, riding a strange beast, holding a treasure bottle in her left hand and a vajra demon pestle in her right hand. Although it is different from Yudong's body, it is probably very similar in shape.

Lao Gu curiously circled around the statue twice, and then said in surprise: "Hey? It's a fun place! Let the family worship the Buddha grandfather, this place is dedicated to the goddess! Don't say it's so beautiful......"

"Don't talk nonsense! This is the goddess who represents Mount Everest. Everest means Mother Earth in Tibetan, and Everest is also known as the Third Goddess in Tibetan. That's pretty much what it should look like in Tibetan Buddhist paintings. It stands to reason that it is normal to build a goddess sculpture here, but this location ......" Qin Zhen also looked confused.

Lao Gu looked at the statue in front of him, and suddenly said leisurely: "This is the ...... of the god I have seen that looks most like a human" (to be continued......
