On October 27th, the base forecast that it would be sunny the next day, so the two coaches prepared to take the people out this afternoon. They would first stay at the base camp at an altitude of 3,900 meters for one night, and then set off to climb to the summit at 3 a.m. the next day.
There was a female white-collar worker in the team who had always done well in training, but when she finally decided to climb the mountain, she was so frightened that she shivered with worry when she took the car to the base camp. Mu Qing comforted her beside her.
In fact, the job should go to Wu Chunchun, the coach, but the white-collar workers were afraid of the snowy mountains only after seeing her deeds. There was nothing they could do, and only Mu Qing, the junior sister, was the top one.
Qi Zhixin touched Chen Xing who was sitting next to him and asked, "Junior brother, are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?"
"Of course..." he was about to say, but realized that it was unlucky to say that word now, so he held it back.
"never mind."
Chen Xing was confused and took a rest while listening to music with headphones.
He is somewhat famous among the dozen or so mountaineering team. After returning from hiking a few days ago, several people who like to take photos took out photos to show off. But then they saw the works taken by Chen Xing and were immediately shocked. God.
Including the two coaches and many staff at the base, they all came to Chen Xing to ask for photos.
Chen Xing had no idea of participating in the photography competition with his work and agreed with them to post the photos in their WeChat Moments.
The car drove to the place where we started hiking last time.
Everyone got out of the car. Wu Chunchun clapped his hands to signal everyone to come over and shouted: "Don't run around now. If you want to take any action alone or leave the platform of base camp, you must tell us. This is also for everyone." Can this be done due to safety considerations?”
Mu Qing was very excited. He raised his hands and danced a little: "Yes! Yes!"
Lu Yan adjusted his glasses and said, "I don't know if the house over there is habitable. If it is habitable, it will save us the trouble of installing the tent ourselves."
He was talking about the somewhat shabby little house on the snow platform, but no matter how shabby it was, it was still a house. It was definitely better at preventing wind and cold than the tent they had set up. As long as it didn't leak, it should be fine.
And it won't rain tonight.
Wu Chunchun happened to talk about the house. She said: "The house over there can accommodate five people, but it only has one bed and costs 30 yuan a night. My suggestion is that everyone should set up their own tent, as long as it is laid out according to the regulations. If you use a waterproof pad and an insulating pad, you won’t feel cold.”
No one who travels here will be short of thirty yuan, but if five people are sleeping in a bed, it depends on whether everyone has a good relationship.
No one said they were going to live in a house.
Everyone set up tents according to the method they learned in the training camp. Wu Chunchun looked around to see if the piles were driven deep, or helped a few girls set up a tent or something. Chen Zhibing took a hoe and dug a hole far away from the back of the tent. He came back and told everyone that it was a toilet pit, so that everyone could solve their personal hygiene problems.
It was windy outside at this time, maybe because the temperature was too low, and the wind was mixed with snowflakes, making the temperature here even colder.
Chen Xing quickly set up a tent and laid out various waterproof and heat-insulating equipment inside.
This time’s mountaineering was completely different from that in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. There were no cable cars, no lifeguards, no large numbers of tourists and people renting down jackets. What was there was just everyone’s worry and fear, and the seriousness of the two coaches who were relaxed.
This snow mountain must be easy for them.
The only ones who are afraid are the newbies like them.
Chen Xing was also worried, but he was still more excited. There were too few accidents in Otana Snow Mountain, and their two coaches were both professional mountaineers, so what else were there to worry about?
Even if there is an avalanche, Chen Xing believes that the two coaches can bring them out.
I pushed open the tent and took a look. The wind outside showed no sign of weakening at all. The tent was rattling loudly and the visibility was relatively low.
Wu Chunchun, who was cooking in the big tent in front, saw Chen Xing and smiled at him and said, "Don't be frightened. This kind of wind is normal. It will disappear after a while. Remember to come out to eat later."
Seeing that the coach didn't show any panic at all, Chen Xing felt completely at ease.
Due to the wind and snow, Chen Xing could only see their tents. The tents set up by scattered tourists in the distance were just a bunch of color blocks, and the small houses were vaguely visible in the wind and snow.
Today's dinner was not as sumptuous as the base, just a bowl of instant noodles with eggs and ham.
After dinner, everyone returned to the tent to stay.
Mu Qing sent a message and asked: "What are you doing?"
"Read novels." Chen Xing said.
"Aren't you afraid at all? Such heavy snow."
Chen Xing said: "It's really scary to stay outside, but I'm not that scared inside the tent. I feel safe lying in the sleeping bag."
It was already dark by this time, and it was dead silent outside except for the sound of wind and snow beating against the tent.
But I can feel that the wind and snow are getting lighter and lighter.
Chen Xing patted the tent and shook off the snow on it to prevent them from crushing the tent.
Looking at the phone again, Mu Qing sent an emoticon saying 'You are awesome'.
It's only seven o'clock.
Coach Chen told everyone in the group to go to bed quickly and get up at three o'clock tomorrow to sprint to the top of the mountain. It would take at least seven or eight hours to climb. He felt that everyone should have enough physical strength, but it still wouldn't work if they didn't have the energy.
But Chen Xing couldn't sleep.
He has become accustomed to going to bed late and waking up late. He really can't fall asleep at this hour, and he can't get up at three o'clock.
Thinking about ten o'clock over and over again, Chen Xing looked at his phone and simply stopped sleeping.
At this time, I can only wake up at three o'clock when I fall asleep.
He wanted to pee a little bit, so he opened the tent to go out for a while. He just opened the tent, and when he saw the scene outside, he pulled the two sides of the tent together with his hands and leaned back, obviously shocked.
There was a big white butt not far from his tent!
He hadn't seen clearly who it belonged to, but he only knew it was a girl with long hair.
Wori, go to the pit, sister!
After waiting for about ten minutes, it was completely quiet outside, and Chen Xing opened the tent and walked out.
It's so quiet.
This kind of tranquility was something Chen Xing had never experienced before.
There were no sounds of insects, birds, or human voices. It was so quiet that Chen Xing could only hear the faint sound of breathing. Occasionally, there was a slight cough that came from nowhere. That was the loudest sound in the world. .
He walked on the snow, and the snow on the ground made a crunching sound.
The wind and snow just now had blown away all the mist, and the moonlight and stars were as bright as during the day. Everything could be seen clearly. Looking across a mountain peak in the distance, the light band of the Milky Way was clearly visible.
Then raise your head.
The dark night sky was filled with stars.
Chen Xing suddenly woke up.
I want to take pictures of the stars!
