"Oh...... It was worn on the feet! But it soon became clear to her that it was not a trap, and the man took one and put it on the sole of his boot, and when he tightened a few rubber sleeves, a ring of steel spikes grew on the sole of his foot.

"It's crampons, and with it, we can walk on the ice." It was not enough to have spikes on his bare feet, so Hong Tao took out four hammer-like things from the sheepskin bag, shortened the trekking poles, and screwed them into ice axes.

"Wait here, I'll go up and explore the way first!"

Putting on crampons, an ice axe in one hand, snow goggles, gloves, safety belts, and a quick hanger, rock plugs, pitons, and two rolls of climbing ropes on his back, Herdsman Billes turned into a mountaineer again, and walked up the snow slope with a clang.

For the sport of rock climbing, Hong Tao has never tried too deeply in his previous life, and he just stays at the level of knowing how to use equipment and understanding some basic common sense. However, it should be enough for most terrain and landforms, and there are very few opportunities to really use such superb skills as freehand rock climbing in real life.

Hadamuzi Daban, to put it bluntly, is a mountain pass that has been eroded by glaciers. In the past, it may have been a cliff, but it was chosen by the glacier, and as a result, the moving ice made a large gap in the rocky mountain. If you want to talk about water, it's really hard to say whether it's soft or hard.

The valley is almost 200 meters wide and has cliffs on the left and right sides, except for a steep slope in the middle, up which you have to climb to climb over it. At this time, the snow on the slope has not yet frozen, and it is a pit when you step on it. But the rocks beneath the snow are already frozen, and it's hard to get up without crampons.

"Click...... "The main reason why Hong Tao doesn't like rock climbing is that he is afraid ......of being tired.

This thing is purely masochistic, and every step is to first chisel the ice shell with an ice axe to make sure that the foothold is not loosened, and then kick and step on it vigorously with the crampons, so that the sharp steel claws firmly grasp the ice and rocks.

With a distance of less than 200 meters and a steep slope of almost 70 degrees, Hong Tao had to stop and catch his breath after climbing more than ten meters, shake his hands vigorously to let the blood flow more, and at the same time pay attention to the strong wind.

The mountain passes are basically tuyeres, and the feeling at the bottom of the slope is not very obvious, and the higher you climb, the stronger the wind. Halfway up the climb, Hong Tao let a sudden thief wind slap on the slope, fortunately the ice axe in his left hand stuck into the crack of the rock, otherwise the dozens of meters would have climbed in vain, and he slipped down in an ice car, in case he hit the stone, the consequences were unpredictable.

"You're...... Your mother ......grinned, "As a last resort, Hong Tao can only sacrifice the Dafa of science and technology, take off a rock plug, and stuff it into the rock crevice where the main ice axe has just been stuck, making a relatively solid protection point."

Then he strapped the rope to the harness and threw it through the steel ring of the rock plug for Juma to pull. In this way, no matter whether you will fall when you climb up again, you will not be stuck to the end with the pull of the safety rope.

From here, if you climb up again, you don't dare to hold it up, and every ten meters or so make a protection point on the rock, and the big gap is plugged with rock, and the small gap is chiseled into it with a pitu. A small section followed a crooked course, gradually approaching the top of Dasaka.

"Hey, I'm going to Nima......" When Hong Tao hooked the rock with an ice axe, poked his head out of the highest point of Daban, and planned to take a look at his results for two hours, he scolded again in front of him.

I thought that climbing up to Dasaka would be a big victory, but I didn't expect it to be just the beginning. The real road is only a few hundred meters ahead, and then there is a gray-white crack that is not visible at a glance.

Glacier, Muzart Glacier, Crimean says this is also a Mongolian language, meaning white valley. In fact, it is not white at all, and it does not feel like ice from a distance, and the gray is like a mixture of snow and earth.

Aside from its color, its shape is more intimidating. The surface is twisted and covered with large and small ravines, like a large pile of broken glass gathered together, and there is almost no road to pass through.

But in any case, you have to climb Daban before you are eligible to challenge the glacier, so Hong Tao has to climb down again after fixing the climbing rope. It's useless for him to come up alone, there are three big backpacks and a big living person underneath!

With the assistance of a safety rope on the way down the mountain, it is much easier than climbing a little bit and making a protection point when going up the mountain, and as long as the feet do not slip, there is no need to worry about safety.

"Can I go up?" But Juma under the mountain didn't think so, she could see the appearance of the man climbing up just now, and the sturdy people worked so hard, she still had an injury on her leg and could hardly work too hard, and she didn't seem to have much confidence on one leg.

"You can't go up by yourself, I'm pulling the rope underneath, just step on your feet and climb up!" Even if Juma's two legs are good, Hong Tao doesn't think she can rely on her own ability.

But now it's different, with a safety rope, I can help share some of the strength. Theoretically, you can go up without legs and with a two-handed ice axe, after all, this is not a cliff.

In fact, Juma's performance was much better than expected, and this clever girl found a trick to step on the place where Hong Tao had just stepped on, and used the hollowed depression to go up step by step. On the way, he was only blown down twice by the wind, but there was Hong Tao pulling the rope underneath, and it was not a big deal except for some pain from falling.

But the next link is the most tiring, three big backpacks weighing forty or fifty pounds, all of which have to be carried up by Hong Tao one by one. Even if there is a safety rope protection, you don't have to worry about falling down, but you can really carry the weight three times round trip.

"Set up a tent, set up a tent ......" When the last trip arrived, Hong Tao's hands could no longer hold the ice axe, and his gloves were wet, so that the mountain wind blew and immediately froze. Not only the gloves, but also the clothes on the whole body were soaked with sweat, and if you didn't change them right away, they would quickly freeze into popsicles.

"Hiss...... I am the ancestor of the U.S. military and ...... the United States Army, "Juma is quite capable, he nailed the ground by himself, and when Hong Tao eased up a little, the two of them worked together to erect the tent. The first thing Hong Tao did when he got in was to take off his clothes, and after less than ten minutes of blowing in the cold wind of the mountain pass, his underwear was about to freeze.

"Come on, come on...... Let the uncle hug him...... Hey, don't give it to the outside, it's easy to use it with an open mind! After taking off the blanket, Hong Taotian shamelessly sent an invitation to Juma, who had to hug others and untie his coat.

Juma didn't treat men as hooligans, and besides, hooligans couldn't flow if they were frozen like this. She knew that men needed temperature, so she generously unbuttoned her cold-proof clothing, hugged them face to face, and took the initiative to rub the man's ears and face with her hands.

“…… Why do you want to have a Mickey Mouse head tattooed on your back? "Sitting in the man's arms with his face on his shoulder, he naturally saw the tattoo on his back. I didn't see it clearly at first, but I stretched out my head to look at it again and finally understood, but I was even more confused.

"Hey, don't satisfy your curiosity, wrap the blanket tightly!" In fact, Hong Tao has already recovered, and there will be nothing to do with changing into new underwear at this time. But if you have a bargain, you don't take advantage of the bastard, and he resolutely doesn't want to be a bastard, so he has to hold on for a while.

It was a stormy night, and the small tent was blown back and forth by the wind, flattened and crooked for a while. Fortunately, the workmanship of the material is not false, otherwise it would have been frozen into a popsicle.

However, the inside of the tent is still not very comfortable, the altitude here is already 3600 meters, except for snow, stones and ice, it is really not a single grass. Naturally, there was no firewood to burn, only a small gasoline stove could barely boil the snow water, making it hot chocolate to drink.

"Click...... Boom...... Knock Knock Knock...... Boom ...... Whoosh...... "After eating and drinking, two people hurriedly got into the sleeping bag, but no matter how tired the body was, they couldn't sleep after turning it over." There is only one reason, in addition to the whirring wind outside, there are all kinds of strange sounds, such as crying and complaining, sleepless.

"Is it a ghost in the mountains crying?" No matter how strong Juma was, she couldn't help but start thinking about it, poking out half of her face from her sleeping bag, her eyes rolling around.

"It's the ice that's cracking...... I really don't know how the princess and Tang Seng walked over back then, I guess it will be better after the beginning of spring. Hong Tao knew what was ringing, and he couldn't sleep either. That kind of sound didn't just come in from the ears, it was transmitted directly to the brain along the rocks and bones, and it was useless to plug the ears.
