Chapter 127: Honey Pickers, Climb a Mountain

The pilot film of "Traveler" this time was "scolded".

Director Wanghou Dog is completely solid.

Wang Hou, who was far away in Weizang, received a message from a colleague from the Jinghai Kunlun platform, saying that the Kunlun headquarters received the blades sent to him by Jinghai viewers and fans on the same day, and also took photos and sent them to the prince.

Wang Jia: "This audience is really punished. ”

Xu Feifei: "Trembling. ”

Wang Jia: "Uncle, now the whole network is scolding you as a dog director, is it really okay?" ”

Prince: "Beating is kissing and scolding is love, understand?" ”

Wang Jia: "Understood, the audience shouldn't scold, they should chase you with a kitchen knife and cut it." ”

Xu Feifei: "How deep does that have to love?" ”

Wanghou: "Do you kid still want to turn positive?" ”

Xu Feifei immediately shut up.

After all, he is not like Wang Jia and the prince, who are related to each other and call their uncles...... Teasing the boss should be done in moderation.

After Xu Feifei shut up, the prince was silent for a while and said, "I have already reported to Ling to become a regular in advance, and I have passed." In the past two days, pay attention to the news of the HR department, they will ask you to sign an electronic contract. ”

Xu Feifei: "Thank you, boss!" ”

The prince said that "beating is kissing and scolding is love", but in fact he is still very cowardly...... He had a calm and breezy look on his face, but secretly he had already sent a micro-message to Zhou You:

"Mr. Xiaoyao, is there an official version of "Write the Story to Us"? Now the audience's voice is quite high, and I think that when the show is broadcast, it is better for this song to be synchronized to the Yueting platform. A colleague in Kunlun told me that some viewers had sent blades to headquarters. ”

From the prince's tone, you can hear his cowardice.

But the audience in this world is really punished, and they really send blades. I've heard of sending blades to writers, but it's the first time I've heard of sending blades to directors.

"There is no recorded version." Lobbying.

"That's very difficult," said the prince, "and there is no place to record it, and there is no place to record it." ”

For the first time, the prince felt that it was inconvenient to be in this place......

"I'll record it later." Zhou You replied lightly.

……

The red wild horse drove for nearly seven hours, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon when it arrived in Chentang Town.

Chentang Town, rather than a town, is more likely to be called a village.

It's halfway up the mountain.

Surrounded by mountains, the greenery is thriving.

As far as the eye can see, there are terraces with a great sense of hierarchy and art.

The chicken paw valleys planted in the terraces have begun to turn yellow, and at the moment they will turn greenish-yellow, and after a while they will turn yellow-orange-orange.

Chicken Paw Valley is a unique grain of Chen Tang, which used to be a staple food for the locals, but now the indigenous Sherpas no longer use it as a staple food, but use it to make wine - Chicken Paw Valley wine.

Chentang is a primeval forest area located on the southeast side of Mount Everest, with a forest coverage rate of 98%.

When you come here, you can see the lush vegetation.

Being in the middle of it will even make you wonder if this is not Weizang.

Due to the plateau climate factors, the vertical distribution of vegetation in Chentang Town is very obvious. It is known as the saying and scene of "a mountain is divided into four seasons and ten miles of different days".

After arriving in Chentang, they stayed at a family hotel at the foot of the mountain.

The owner's name is Pulba.

Purba is a local Sherpa people.

He used to be a guide to climb Mount Everest, and he was also a person who climbed to the top of the world. Later, he made money, married a wife, and out of family responsibility, he no longer took the risk of being a guide to climb Mount Everest, but used the savings he had saved before to build the current "mansion" and open a family hotel.

As soon as Purba arranged the accommodation of Zhou You and Li Yan and others, his family guests ushered in another big business.

A team of Everest mountaineering called the "Warriors" came to stay overnight.

The Warriors mountaineering team consists of nine people.

They are not from the Xia Kingdom.

Rather, it was a merchant from the Western Continent.

The Shang people were white-skinned and tall. The official language of the Star Federation is Chinese. Therefore, in addition to the dialect of the western continent "Western (English)", their Chinese proficiency is also very good.

The captain of the mountaineering team is called Lawson.

In the Western Continent, most of the way people choose names is influenced by the Xia Kingdom, Tang Kingdom and other countries in the Eastern Continent.

On the basis of maintaining the original name style, they will try to use the surnames of Xia and Tang. But they have a persistent preference for some of the surnames in the hundred families, such as: Niu, Ma, Zhu, etc.

The common ones are Marat, Newton, Julie.

The people of the Western Continent are so interesting, probably they like cows, horses and pigs......

The Warrior Expedition, or Warrior Mountaineering Team, came this time to conquer Mount Everest. It is well known that people in the Western Continent have two great hobbies: adventure and death.

The Warrior Expedition settled in Chentang in search of a Sherpa to serve as their mountain guide.

Sherpas are known as "Everest porters".

Or "Everest Scavenger".

They have a strong physique and an innate talent for mountaineering, and they are also the best guides for Mount Everest, there is no one.

Almost every mountaineering team and expedition to Mount Everest has a Sherpa as a guide.

They were responsible for opening the way for the mountaineering team, risking their lives without any equipment to erect a safety rope with a total length of more than 7,000 meters, opening up a "heavenly road" for the mountaineering team.

Zhou You and Li Yan put their things in the room and came out, and happened to bump into the warrior Everest expedition team led by Lawson.

At this time, Lawson was asking the boss for Purba, "Man, is there a reliable mountain guide to recommend?" ”

Purba often receives such inquiries and inquiries, and he said with a smile: "Yes, there is a good hand who has not taken the job recently." ”

Rosen: "Tell us about it?" ”

Pulba: "No problem. ”

Chen Tang's altitude is only 2040 meters, and Li Yan feels happy to breathe here, and he no longer has to worry about high reactions.

The vegetation here is luxuriant, and Li Yan uses "natural oxygen bar" to describe this place.

This place is only a few dozen miles away from Mount Everest, and he is about to see the world's highest peak, Li Yan is already excited, and now he is even more excited when he sees an expedition of foreign friends.

The chatter attribute and the social awesome attribute are instantly activated at this moment, "Hello~"

Li Yan greeted the other party in "Spanish (English)".

"Hello." Lawson responded kindly, speaking pure Chinese.

"Are you planning to climb Mount Everest?" Li Yan asked.

"Yes." Rosen said, "You're here to climb Mount Everest, too? ”

"We're just here to have fun." Li Yan said, "When I go to that place, I have to go up vertically and come down horizontally...... It should be said that it may not be able to get down. ”

"So what are you doing...... Do shows? Rosen said.

"Yes." Li Yan said, "You know "Traveler", right? ”

"I don't know."

I can't talk anymore this day.

But because Li Yan took the initiative to talk to the other party, he and Zhou You could be regarded as entering the "enemy's interior" and had a very happy conversation.

Zhou You praised their plan to climb Mount Everest as cool.

Lawson and others also praised him for being cool as a singer.

Rosen said, "Shane used to be a rapper. ”

Shane was a twenty-eight-year-old member of the Brave Expedition, dark-skinned, tall, thin. He looks like a marathon runner. But dark skin is the darling of music, and it's normal to be good at rapping.

Zhou You, Li Yan, sat down and chatted for a long time with the members of the Brave Expedition.

Traveling around, they talked about their experiences in Weizang.

The brave expedition team said that they went to any dangerous place or secret place around the world to explore, and their life can be described as very exciting.

[Talking happily with the expedition team of the Western Continent merchant country, life point +1]

While he was talking, Purba had already found what he called the "expert", a Sherpa named "Zaji".

Pulba: "This is Zaghi, who has led six mountaineering teams to the summit of Mount Everest. ”

Rosen, Shane and the others immediately got up and shook hands with Zaghi, "Hello, I'm Rosen. This trip to the mountain, please. ”

Zaji shook hands with them one by one, and also greeted Li Yan who traveled around, saying, "It's no problem to be a guide, but you have to wait two days for departure." I've made an appointment with Sandan to pick beehives together tomorrow. ”

Lawson: "Honeycomb? ”

Zaghi: "Yes. It's a tradition here. Picking beehives to get back the honeycomb and honey, extracting golden beeswax can be sold for a lot of money. ”

Zaji also said that in their Chentang, there is a species of bee called the Himalayan hanging rock bee.

The bees are the largest in the world, and they can fly to more than 4,000 meters above sea level in search of the tallest and most tenacious flowers on the plateau.

The hives of Himalayan overhanging bees are generally more than two meters in diameter.

Usually suspended from steep cliffs, among rocks.

It's not easy to pick such a hive.

Li Yan heard that the hive of the hanging rock bee was two meters, and immediately opened his arms and gestured, "It's so big...... No, two are so big! I'm just over 1.8 meters, and the hive stands taller than me! ”

Originally, I heard that everyone was two meters, and this was a vague concept.

After Li Yan's comparison.

Everyone's three-dimensional sense of the size of the Himalayan hanging rock beehive came out instantly.

"Is there really such a big hive?" Zhou lobbied, "So how big is this bee?" ”

"It's so big." Zaghi used his thumb and index finger to figure out a size range.

It was about two centimeters long......

It's much bigger than a normal bee, about the size of half an adult's thumb.

Before Zhou You could speak, Li Yan said again: "Brother Zaji, can I go with you tomorrow to have a look?" ”

Zaghi: "Of course, but you have to take precautions to avoid being stung by bees." These bees are all poisonous. ”

Li Yan: "No problem. ”

The members of the Brave Expedition were also interested when they heard this, and Rosen said, "I want to follow you to see and see it too." ”

In this way, Zhou You and others finalized tomorrow's itinerary.

That night, Purba's family cooked and entertained the people of the traveling and brave expeditions, and Zaji also stayed for dinner.

Certainly not Purba's enthusiasm...... Eating at his family's hotel is to give money.

It is equivalent to doing both accommodation and catering business.

But the Purba family's liquor is provided free of charge.

He said, "You can drink as much wine as you like, and you can take care of it." ”

As mentioned above, the chicken foot valley cultivated by the Sherpas of Chen Tang is no longer used as a staple food, but is used to make chicken foot valley wine.

Pu Erbian served wine to Zhou You and others.

Unlike other places, Chen Tang's chicken feet valley wine is drunk in a "barrel".

What a bowl of wine, a pot of wine is weak compared to the "barrel of wine" here.

Of course, this barrel is not the big barrel as expected...... Rather, it is a short and thick barrel. It contains fermented chicken feet grain wine, and when you drink it, you pour boiling water into it, then insert a bamboo pole inlaid with silver ornaments thicker than chopsticks, and suck it vigorously.

There is a feeling of drinking a drink.

It's very confusing to look at.

But this kind of alcohol has quite a lot of stamina.

Li Yan took two tactical sips, and he was dizzy after eating...... No wonder Purba would say that the wine is drunk casually.

Because you can't really drink much.

Thanks to the special forces' physique, Zhou You felt fine, but as time went by, he still had a slight dizziness.

[The first time I tasted chicken foot wine, life point +1]

……

Early the next morning, Zhou Li Yan and the members of the brave mountaineering team gathered with Zaji and his friend Sang Dan to go to the cliff to pick beehives.

They crossed a rickety "suspension bridge" and hiked through wet, steep mountain paths.

The mountains here are steep even for yaks to walk around.

Zaji and Sandan, who have Sherpa mountaineering talents, walk "like a fly" on this road and walk with ease.

Zhou You, who has the physique of a special soldier, followed Zaji's steps and did not feel difficult, but Li Yan was embarrassed.

Even Lawson, who has a lot of experience in adventure hiking, finds the road difficult.

Zaji gave a thumbs up to Zhou You: "Do you hike a lot?" I've led a lot of climbers, and you're the easiest one. ”

Travel: "Take a walk once in a while. Do you often pick beehives? ”

Zaji: "If you find it, you will pick it, a few times a year. ”

Zhou You: "The hive of the hanging rock bee is on the cliff, and if you are not careful when picking, you will be crushed, why take this risk?" ”

Zaghi: "Because it's valuable." ”

Travel: "Can you sell for a very high price?" ”

Zaji: "The popularity of the hanging rock bee is more than 20,000 kilograms. ”

Zhou You was surprised when he heard this.

This is the gold in honey......

He couldn't help but think of the Wangmu family on the Pali grassland, their family only picks Cordyceps every year, and in more than two months, they can earn two or three hundred thousand.

The plateau area is indeed full of treasures, and there is gold everywhere.

About an hour later, the group followed Zaji and Sandan to the bottom of a cliff.

It rained last night.

Looking up, the steep, almost vertical rock walls that are still wet are at least 200 meters high.

A huge beehive lurks in the stone wall.

Rosen wore binoculars.

If you look through the binoculars, the hive is crowded with huge Himalayan hanging rock bees.

Li Yan borrowed a telescope and looked at it, "It's dense!" Intensive phobias are committed. ”

The huge beehive, which is more than two meters long, can be seen quite clearly with the naked eye, even at the bottom of the cliff.

Occasionally, one or two giant hanging bees flew by, and the buzzing sound created a natural sense of fear.

Arriving at the bottom of the cliff, Zaji, Sangdan and others began to prepare for the beehive.

Zaji used local materials and cut bamboo and branches to make torches.

This torch is going to smoke away the bees later.

"It's so high, how do you go up?" Li Yan felt dangerous when he saw the steep rock wall.

"There are usually two options." "Descend from it with a rope, and the second is to climb up with your bare hands. ”

"Freehand climbing?" Li Yan was surprised, "Can you climb up so high?" ”

Zhou You heard the words freehand rock climbing, and a certain factor in the body was activated and awakened.

His professional-grade climbing skills gave him a desire to climb the cliffs.

Commonly known as itchy hands!

But Zhou You suppressed this desire.

There is such a thing as bare hand climbing, and those who fall to death are masters...... Because rookies simply don't have the courage to climb.

"It's a bee picker's secret technique." "But climbing the rock with bare hands is a very traditional way, and nowadays honey harvesters often use ropes or rope ladders." ”

"But looking at today's situation, I'm afraid I have to climb up with my bare hands."

Zaghy looked up at the huge hive.

I saw that the location of the hive was quite tricky.

On the cliff, about 100 meters away, the mountain protrudes out of the mountain.

The length of the protrusion is estimated to be three or four meters.

It's as if someone had slashed across a cliff face with a knife and removed the stone from the bottom part.

And the beehive was just under the huge "canopy" after the stones were cut off and removed.

Descend from a high place with a rope,

The honey collector descended to the height of the hive, and the place where the rope hung down was still three or four meters away from the hive. There is no way to get the hive at all.

So I had to climb up with my bare hands.

In the end, for the sake of safety, Zaji and others discussed a set of plans.

The rope was lowered from the top of the mountain.

Zaji was equipped with a safety rope and then climbed up with his bare hands.

After all, there are old and young, and safety must be considered first.

The technique of freehand climbing is only mastered by Zaji, which is why Sangdan and other villagers call Zaji, because he is the only one here who can go up and pick up the beehive.

With everything in place, Zaghi began to climb upwards with safety measures in place.

He observed for a long time.

Zhou You thought to himself that he must have planned the best route to climb up in his mind.

Then he found the best place to climb, reached out and grabbed a protruding rock above, his arms straining, and then his feet stepping on a bump.

The whole person is like a spider "sticking" to the almost vertical cliff face.

Then he was cautious.

Look for the bumps and crevices in the rocks, use them as a point of focus, and slowly climb up.

It's a slow process.

Zaghi was careful throughout the whole process.

Li Yan looked at this scene and said, "It's too dangerous!! I'm more nervous than he is now. Don't make a mistake. ”

Lawson of the Brave Expedition said: "Amazing! ”

Freehand rock climbing is one of the extreme sports.

Those who dare to challenge are brave people.

The core slogan of the Brave Expedition is bravery and courage, so they especially admire Zaghi, and at the same time hang a heart for him.

Zaghi's ascent started off well.

He had even climbed to a distance of about two meters next to the hive.

Above, Sangdan lowered the rope to the same position, and handed him the smoke of the torch that had been lit, and the bamboo basket that had also fallen down with the rope.

This bamboo basket is used to hold the harvested beehives.

Zaji carefully took the flaming and smoked torch and placed it under the hive.

Suddenly thick smoke drifted upward.

The Himalayan hanging rock bees in the hive suddenly poured out of the nest.

Crazy escape.

After all the rock bees flew away, he began to hold the bamboo pole with one hand, and with the other hand, he grabbed the protrusion of the rock, and poked the hive with the bamboo pole.

However, at this moment, Zaji suddenly made a mistake!

The right foot slipped on the rock, and suddenly the center of gravity of the body shifted, and the whole person fell down!

"Zaghi!" Sang Dan exclaimed.

The hearts of Zhou You, Li Yan, Lawson and others under the cliff instantly rose to their throats.

Thankfully, there are safety ropes.

When Zaji fell, the rope on his body quickly tightened, and after falling two meters, his speed suddenly decreased to zero.

However, the rope shook violently in the air.

Due to inertia, Zaji inevitably crashed into the rock wall.

Wounded.

Helpless!

The villagers had to slowly lower Zaji with ropes.

"Did it hurt anywhere?" Everyone is concerned and inquiring.

"It's fine." Zaji said, "Skin trauma, I'll climb again." ”

"No, it's too dangerous," said the villager, "your hand is bleeding, I'll take care of it for you." ”

"But it's just a little bit." Zaji said.

Most of the hive had been torn off by him, and now it was hanging from the stone wall, almost ...... Everyone can see Zaji's unwillingness.

The villagers were not reconciled either.

But what's the solution?

It was a cliff that only Zaji could climb.

"Forget it, safety is the most important thing." Sang Dan and the others decided to give up.

Because there is no other way but to give up.

It can be poked off by abseiling.

But falling from such a high place, the hive would have to be crushed, so there was no need.

However, at this moment, seeing everyone's unwillingness, Zhou You suddenly said, "I'll try it." ”
