Chapter 51 Mountaineering Training Camp

As the car drove further and further away, Chen Xing knew that this was going directly to the winter camp under the Autina Snow Mountain, but he was still a little worried.

I looked at the phone, and there is still 60.00% of the battery.

Huawei mobile phone has a function that is very useful for travelers like Chen Xing, and that is to quickly dial the alarm number.

Find security in the settings, click SOS emergency assistance, and there is an automatic call for help by pressing the power button five times.

As long as the emergency contacts are set as alarm calls, you can quickly call the police.

There is another function that is also very practical. It is also in the security. There is an emergency warning center, which can open the earthquake warning, so that the message will be received before the earthquake wave arrives, and the escape time will be reserved.

As a native of Sichuan Province, Chen Xing was already numb to earthquakes, but if he knew in advance that he was facing an earthquake of magnitude five or six, he would still be willing to move.

Chen Xing was only talkative with beautiful women, but he really didn't know what to talk about when facing Chen Zhibing, an old man. Fortunately, Chen Zhibing had been a coach for several years, and Chen Xing was very interested in the mountain climbing stories he told, which made the two of them grow up together. There are no cold spots in the drive of time.

Their destination is near the base camp of San'ao Snow Mountain...

As a private mountaineering company, of course they cooperate with the snow mountain camp, but compared with tourists starting from the base camp of San'ao Snow Mountain, they are safer, charge more, and provide better services.

Two hours later, the trees on the side of the road were already covered with hoarfrost, and there were deep and shallow piles of snow on the side of the road.

The house has also become a completely different style.

Chen Xing looked at the buildings outside the window and asked, "Coach Chen, are these houses outside inhabited by Tibetans?"

"Yes, we have many such homestays here. If you are not used to living in our dormitory, or if you are interested in these homestays, you can stay for two days."

"Yeah." He agreed.

Of course he was going to stay for the night, which was a bonus.

The car quickly stopped at a place that looked like a park, with white snow everywhere, as if it was already in a snow mountain, but the surrounding trees and green plants were still a bit like a snow mountain park.

After getting off the car, Chen Zhibing introduced to Chen Xing: "Brother, the bungalow over there is our dormitory, two people share one room, but the bedroom is separate, with independent bathroom and air conditioner, and the venue over there is for training. Yes, there's a gym."

"Training? Gym?"

"Well, many of the people who sign up are not fit enough, and if they don't have enough physical fitness, climbing will be very difficult. Don't look at Otina, which is only 5000 meters high, but not everyone can climb it. Once the altitude rises, every more Every meter will make mountaineering more difficult."

When Chen Xing just arrived, Chen Zhibing took him to the gymnasium to have a look before he was sure whether he wanted to participate in the training camp.

There were already people inside, twelve or thirteen students were sitting cross-legged on the ground, and a female instructor was standing in front, talking about some mountain climbing knowledge.

Chen Zhibing whispered to Chen Xing: "The people who sign up for our training camp are all new mountaineers like you, so there are many precautions and taboos that must be told to you in advance, but more is physical training and the choice of mountaineering equipment. .”

The cost of this training camp including equipment is 3000 yuan. Chen Xing read the comments from netizens and said that the equipment is worth more than [-] yuan.

The more than 1 includes assault suits, gloves, socks, hats, snow covers, trekking poles, hiking shoes, water bottles, snow goggles, and some special equipment for climbing snow mountains.Looking at the name, Chen Xing didn't recognize many of them, but there were a lot of good reviews on the Internet, even if he lost, he couldn't lose much.

"You can hang around here. If you are sure you want to join us, you can send me a WeChat message, or you can tell the female coach in front of you. Her surname is Wu, Wu Chunchun."

"Okay, thank you."

"It should be, it should be, anyway, we will not refund the deposit."

Chen Zhibing smiled and shook hands with Chen Xing, went up to say hello to Coach Wu who was giving the lecture, and left.

Coach Wu said to the students:
"have a rest."

The students sitting cross-legged below stood up in a swarm. Chen Xing saw that there were elegant uncles in their 40s wearing glasses, and young girls in their twenties. The composition was more complicated, but there were quite a lot of girls. Yes, there are five of them.

Several people walked towards Chen Xing, among them was the bespectacled man who looked like a civil servant.

"Are you also here to sign up for mountaineering?"

"En." Chen Xing nodded and said, "Hello, how long have you been here?"

"I came yesterday."

"It's been a few days."

"I just arrived in the morning, and it feels quite normal..."

Someone suddenly changed the subject and said, "Hey, how old is that female coach surnamed Wu, you said? She looks very young, and she has also climbed Mount Everest?"

"You don't even know her? What about those who have written books? In 19, when her mountaineering team encountered an avalanche when they descended a snow mountain, she survived alone. She is a very powerful person. You can read "Limit" written by her. Look, it's pretty nice."

It was a girl who spoke, she was very excited when she mentioned this, she might be a fan of Coach Wu.

Chen Xing held his hand and listened for a long time, then asked, "Did you read that book? Is there an advertisement on it?"

"No, I saw the news on her Weibo and wanted to try what it's like to climb a snow mountain."

Sure enough, a fan.

"I also want to try the feeling of climbing a snow mountain." The uncle said with a smile.

We chatted for a while, and felt that it was quite right, so we introduced each other.

The uncle who looks like a civil servant is really a civil servant. He works as the deputy director of a small county called Lu Yan.The younger brother who is very interested in Coach Wu is Qi Zhixin, and the fan girl is Mu Qing, who has just graduated from university and has not yet started work.

It is estimated that the family is not short of money. It costs [-] yuan to sign up here, plus the occasional money, this trip will definitely not be able to stop without [-] yuan.

"Chen Xing, photographer."

"Wow, photographer?" the fan girl said in surprise, "Then can I give you the commemorative photos after we reached the summit?"

"No problem." Chen Xing shrugged.

Lu Yan was curious about the reason why everyone chose to climb the mountain, so he asked a question, and then he said first:
"When I was young, I collected stamps. I had a set of commemorative stamps for the first climb of Mount Everest by the Huaxia Mountaineering Team on May 1960, 5. I don't know why. I was particularly shocked by the bodies of those team members connected by a safety rope. It’s the hero plot that many people are talking about now, and during that time I was climbing mountains in my dreams.”

"Then brother, you came quite late." Qi Zhixin blurted out.

Mu Qing said: "I like the book written by Coach Wu, so I want to try it."

Chen Xing raised his camera.

"To take a good photo."

He's just a photographer, so he doesn't have any small plans to make money.
