"Is this really something to eat?"

Yao Jun held the plastic basin and looked at the slimy food inside, only to feel a churn in his stomach, and he had no appetite.

Bi Fang picked up the spoon and tasted it, the taste was bland, and because of the boiling point problem, even if it was boiled for a long time, the taste of the noodles was still a little hard, with the rotten vegetables, there was a kind of instant noodles that were not boiled, and mixed with the taste of marshmallows, it was indeed difficult to swallow.

[How does it look like pig food (dog head)]

[Ah, can't you eat something good?] 】

【Eat grilled Tibetan snow**! 】

[Don't talk about chickens, civilized you, me and him]

Rob also sat down with a rice bowl on the side, after a hard day's work, he was not so particular, picked up the rice bowl and snorted and drank most of it, and said after finishing: "Every two days, there will be Sherpas here to deliver fresh bread and vegetables, all of which are delivered by our company, health and nutrition are guaranteed, and they are all free, but there will be people who sell some food, but believe me, those things are not much better, and they are more expensive." ”

The materials here are transported over long distances, so whether it is a pancake or an egg, it is not surprising that the price is extremely high, even ten times, and even so, it is still scarce, and it is full of happiness to be able to eat a bowl of white porridge.

Yao Jun sighed, knowing that he couldn't ask for too much, he also took it up and drank it all, and when he was done, he smashed his mouth and looked at the Sherpa on the side: "Did you put salt?" Why do I feel so light? ”

The Sherpa was blindfolded, stretched out his little finger and dipped it in the plate, then nodded affirmatively.

"It's weird, why doesn't it taste salty at all." Yao Jun scratched his head.

"Because high altitudes dull your sense of taste." Bi Fang drank a bowl of slimy food, which also tasted bland, as if there was no oil and water, which was very uncomfortable, but in order to replenish energy, these things still had to be eaten whole, "When people are in a state of low pressure, the blood supply will change, and the sensitivity of the brain's nerves will also change. Once the sensitivity of the brain's nerves to perceive taste changes, the perception of taste will be different from that of a normal environment. It's about 30 percent, Sherpas often live here, they're used to it, we've just come up, and we're naturally not used to it. ”

"In addition to this, there are olfactory reasons, but smell accounts for up to 80% of our perception of taste. Olfactory cells work better when they are wet, and now we are gathered around the oven, which is warm but unavoidable, and the combination of the two makes the natural taste lighter. ”

At present, the scientific community generally agrees that only sour, sweet, bitter, salty, and fresh, plus 15 years of scientists from the University of Perdue in the ugly country identified a sixth type of taste fat, these taste molecules will be captured by the tongue, and then pass the information to the brain, and "tell" the tongue, what is the taste of what is eaten. At the same time, the sense of smell is also one of the sharp tools to capture, but now the brain and nose are dulled a lot, and it is naturally impossible to produce too much taste, which is why in-flight meals are generally unpalatable.

"Isn't that the higher up the stuff is, the worse it tastes?" Yao Jun looked shocked?

Bi Fang shrugged: "Do you really think you're here for a vacation?" Some of them are good to eat, and even the supplies can't be delivered. ”

Yao Jun felt a little suffocated, this mouth can't fade out of the bird? He waved his hand in frustration: "Hey, I'm a little hypoxic again, so I'll rest first." Rob said he was going to train tomorrow. ”

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, quickened their eating, and then spread out their sleeping bags by the side of the stove and drilled inside.

Bi Fang was the last, and immediately said goodnight to the audience, and was about to go to bed, but saw many audience members calling him, and the body that had just been half down was raised again.

[Lao Fang, won't your stove be extinguished? 】

[Yes, you didn't have a crack in this tent, right? Won't it be poisoned? 】

[Why did the old party stumble? 】

"Oh, this one." Bi Fang casually pulled out the burning stick on the side, opened the stove and flipped it over, who knew that not only did not extinguish the fire, but added a large amount of fuel, and then smiled, "How could I forget this kind of thing?" However, it is not coal that is burned here, it is biomass pellets, this thing is made of firewood, straw and various biomass briquettes, there is no tar when burning, and the smoke and dust emissions are also low, and many are also discharged to the outdoors through the smoke pipe, no smoke and no odor, clean and hygienic, and more environmentally friendly than coal, full combustion, and no carbon monoxide, so there is no need to worry. ”

[emmm, holding my little clay kang, I have gained insight again]

[There are so many tricks, I envy the rich guy, looking at Fang Shen's hundreds of thousands of flowers, my teeth are crushed with jealousy]

[What's this, you have to know that he spends all your money, doesn't he climb equal to you climbing? You will also be the man who has climbed Mount Everest without oxygen]

[I'm a leopard head zero charge! ] 】

[Anyway, the lord is too persistent, and he can still go to the base camp at the age of ninety, the last time I went to XZ, I almost lost someone, sure enough, the waste has nothing to do with age, only I am]

The activity of the audience amused Bi Fang, and after a few more small talks, it was finally off the air.

Before going to bed, I looked at the number of people in the live broadcast room, and found that it reached 2.45 million at the peak today, which is gratifying.

My Everest challenge hasn't officially started yet, it's just chatting and looking at the scenery, and I can actually reach the number of viewers that I usually have during the peak hours of live broadcasts.

It seems that the arrival of the lord did play a big role, the host of the animal world came to Fang Shen's live broadcast room, and even attracted a lot of people who have never watched the live broadcast, just to see with their own eyes what kind of live broadcast can attract the lord to join.

Bi Fang closed his eyes with satisfaction, this live broadcast is over, and there will be a lot more wilderness points, at least three hundred, not to mention a high-level equipment.

Plan pass.

The next day.

"I can't do it, you guys go, if you climb again, I'll be useless." Wang Yongbo took a big puff of oxygen and said with thick dark circles under his eyes.

Wang Yongbo didn't sleep well at all last night, he had to suck and itch from time to time, and even if he fell asleep, it was as if something was pressing on his chest in his dreams, and he was so uncomfortable that he died. If he climbs any further, he may really die on Mount Everest.

It was not easy for him to be able to trek to a camp close to 6,000 meters above sea level, and further up, although there were only 3,000 meters left at a vertical elevation, how much distance could he walk?

Hike up a Beichuan Nine Emperor Mountain? That's only more than 2,000 meters, and the rest of the distance can be imagined how difficult it is, and it is not at all possible for him to do. If he really goes up, everyone will have to be distracted to take care of him, which is not good.

As for the rest of the journey, Bi Fang plans to move forward little by little, and finally wait for the weather forecast at an altitude of 7,900 meters, and once the weather is good, he will reach the summit before 2,000 in the afternoon and then return.

Bi Fang scratched his eyebrows, still expecting Wang Yongbo's rottenness: "Then do you want to go back first?" Rob will go up with us, and at this time, there will be no other guide group going down the mountain, and if you want to go down, you can only go down with the Sherpas who have brought the food. ”

Wang Yongbo waved his hand: "It's okay, I'll wait for you here, more than 5,000 meters, I feel okay, just let the porter bring me more oxygen cylinders." ”

After that, Wang Yongbo turned on the oxygen concentrator on the side and skillfully inserted the oxygen tube into his nose, as if he was a severe UCI patient, looking at Bi Fang with some amusement.

Shaking their heads, everyone stopped paying attention to him, and followed Rob to practice, today they will go to the pass first, and then carry out a series of training, and wait until the evening to return to the camp to repair, and then continue to move forward the next day, and strive to reach the second base camp.

Time is very tight, but this is also something that cannot be helped, Bi Fang and others came late, and the home field of the training can only be changed to the third camp.

As a result, as soon as he left the camp, Yao Jun had a problem, and he grabbed Bi Fang with a constipated look.

Bi Fang didn't know why: "What's wrong?" ”

Yao Jun's face turned red, he looked left and right, and asked for a long time, "Is there a toilet here?" ”

Bi Fang wordlessly pointed to the gravel henge on the side.

Yao Jun was extremely embarrassed, he looked at the extraordinarily open gravel henge, and almost died on the spot, brother, are you still broadcasting, just let me pull it here?

But when the whole team stopped because of Yao Jun's toilet problem, he was embarrassed and embarrassed, so he could only take the toilet paper and find a big stone in the gravel field.

It is definitely a different kind of wild stool, wild poop Yao Jun has not never experienced, but unlike the experience in China, the outdoor is used to find shade such as bushes to block, and the field of vision will not be very wide, but there are no bushes here in Gravel Tepe, you can only find a big stone to hide behind, although it can block the vision of the group members, but the space behind the butt is very open, and the field of vision is at least 2 to 5 kilometers away.

This means that anyone who is 2 to 5 kilometers behind can see him, and what could be more exciting?

For the first time, I enjoyed swaying my youth in such an open sky, what more could I ask for?

When the team regrouped and went to the pass, everyone encountered the Tibetan snow chicken again, but unfortunately this time they did not stop, took two photos and continued to move forward.

After walking a comfortable gentle slope, everyone entered the gravel henge. These scattered stone formations are the masterpieces left behind by glacial movements.

"Start climbing right away, check the crampons, don't be careless, it's already above the snow line, it's dangerous." After walking two hundred meters, Rob gasped.

Everyone stopped to check, Bi Fang also knocked on the crampons on his feet, showing it to the audience, many viewers who had no experience in mountaineering only found that Bi Fang's hiking boots had a pair of claws attached to it at some point.

"I use a full-card professional crampons, which requires the shoes to have crampons, and the advantage of the full card is that it is very stable after fixing, not easy to loosen, and it is more free and easy to put on and take off. But the disadvantage is that if the shoe is made of crampons, then the sole needs special reinforcement. The soles will be very hard, and the weight will be large, and it will be difficult to make, so the overall price of the shoes will not be too low, yesterday I didn't install them, but today we have come to the snow line, so we have to install them. ”

Rob pointed to the walking trail not far ahead, "Because there are many dangerous ice crevices nearby, we can only follow the footprints of our predecessors. ”

The group followed the trail, and it didn't take long for them to come to a huge rock, and then they climbed up at an angle of nearly 60 degrees, and the sky began to hail at some point, and the only thing they could hear was the panting of their own overload.

The environment is really very harsh, thin and dry air, temperatures of minus five or six degrees, super ultraviolet rays, and a tired and cold body, which can really only go on by willpower.

Seeing that the snow on the ground is getting more and more and thicker, and everyone will not be able to hold on, a white snow field comes into view.

Rob raised his head, drew a cross on his chest, and said excitedly, "It's here, pass!" ”

When you climb the pass, you can see the entire rolling mountain range through this natural window.

Bi Fang finally saw the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and the endless sandy land under the snow-capped mountains.

Take out the altitude gauge.

5814m

There is no city above the county level that is higher than this pass, the highest xzsh county is only 5000 meters, now, they are a lot higher than the vast majority of humans, and at the same time, this height has no permanent inhabitants on the earth, and the air is only about 50% of the oxygen content of the capital, but there is a benefit.

There was no smog at all.

The air was cold, but it was incomparably fresh, as if it was not air that was inhaled into the lungs, but clear water.

Standing here, Bi Fang can clearly see a big pit on the earth, which is the bed of a big lake - Duoqingcuo, and the snow-capped mountain behind Duoqingcuo is Zhuomulari Snow Mountain with an altitude of more than 7,000 meters.

On the dry lake, the violent wind swept the rain and sand across the ground, and everyone looked in the direction of the snow-capped mountains, and found that the clouds behind the snow-capped mountains were rushing like a tide to the low-lying passes between the peaks, which were water vapor from the distant Indian Ocean, and they were trying to climb over the highest mountain range in the world; Although they managed to cross the peak, they gradually dissipated not far from the pass.

Everyone stretched out their hands, as if they could feel the moist moisture.

Attenborough was a little blinded by ultraviolet light, but he could still tell that he smiled innocently and joyfully like a child: "Behind the snow-capped mountains is Bhutan, and around the snow-capped mountains is the mysterious Yadonggou." I've been there before, and I'm shocked, this side of the snow-capped mountains is dry sand, and only the most drought-tolerant plants can survive in such extreme environments; On the other side of the pass is the damp foothills covered by clouds and mist all year round.

Most of the area is on the northern side of the Himalayas, and the climate is dominated by alpine deserts or dry and warm river valleys, and although the species are special, they are not abundant. But the Himalayas are deeply cut by rivers, and the water vapour rises along the valleys, creating a completely different climate from the surroundings, and many subtropical and even tropical plants can grow to higher altitudes along the warm and humid environment created by the water vapour.

The temperature and humidity changes brought about by the huge altitude difference from the mountain peaks to the river valleys make the plant community here extremely varied and the species are extremely rich, and the high mountains between the valleys form a geographical isolation as a natural barrier, so that the plant species are sharply differentiated here, and many species are distributed in a narrow area. For various reasons, the valley in the Himalayas has become the most biodiverse area in the whole of XZ, and it has also become the most attractive botanical mecca in China.

I was really excited when I went there, it was heaven! ”

At this time, the lord danced with his hands, he had been to both sides of the mountain, but he had never come to the mountain to look down on both sides, such a magnificent scenery, even let the trekking poles in his hand break away, and fall straight down the ice slope into the valley.
