Chapter 225 Advance Camp—Death Camp

"Brother, you're awesome. Where can I see your videos?"

"I found it, I found it! Onlyfan has this piece!"

"Although it seems a bit exaggerated, when I think about it carefully, it seems that it is not that exaggerated. It is very reasonable!"

"After all, the state Ning Shen has shown since setting off from the base camp is indeed outrageous."

"I see that the guy from Red Bull doesn't have much weight to carry, and his expression is not right now. Ning Shen is carrying a giant baby up there, and he's not even breathing."

"I just got here, who is the giant baby?"

"Qian Zhen: Are you polite?"

"To be honest, although Ning Shen is indeed very powerful, I think the giant baby is not bad at all! He is so obedient, have you noticed? If you really carry a baby on your back, you might even use your feet to kick it. As for you, Qian Zhen laid down on Xiao Ning's back, he was really motionless and didn't disturb Ning Shen at all!"

"Ning Shen is awesome, and Qian Zhen is indeed very well-behaved."

"Yes, he is as good as a dead man."

"Hahahahaha..."

"..."

As the barrages passed by one after another, Qian Zhen's voice came from Xiao Ning's back.

"Pfft."

"Junior brother Xiao, these barrages are talking about anything."

"Pfft."

"Are you complimenting you?"

"Pfft."

"You should be praising me too, right?"

"Pfft."

Xiao Ning frowned and stopped looking at the screen fixed on the gimbal. While holding the gimbal with one hand, he walked forward and said to Qian Zhen on his back: "I am indeed praising you."

"Pfft."

Qian Zhen's eyes lit up: "What did you praise me for?"

"Praise you for lying on my back as well-behaved as a dead man."

Originally Qian Zhen was quite looking forward to it, but when Xiao Ning said these words, he was just confused.

What does it mean to be as well-behaved as a dead person?Is this a compliment to my buddy?
Before Qian Zhen could understand what this meant, Xiao Ning's voice sounded next to him.

"Although every camp can replenish oxygen and there are enough oxygen tubes, Senior Brother Qian, it is best not to use oxygen too frequently. On the one hand, it is not good for your health, and on the other hand... although we have arrived now The altitude is 6000 meters, but in fact, before reaching the advanced camp, what we are doing now can only be regarded as high-altitude hiking. If you take too much oxygen now, I am afraid that you will climb up later. Can’t live.”

"In short, don't take a breath of oxygen every time you say a word... just hold on for a while and replenish oxygen rhythmically."

Hearing Xiao Ning talking about this, Qian Zhen realized that he seemed to be overly dependent on oxygen. While the old man blushed, he was thinking of subconsciously taking a breath of oxygen, but he abruptly stopped in the middle of the movement.

If it was just embarrassing in front of Xiao Ning, it would actually be okay. After all, he had climbed on someone else's back, and Xiao Ning knew very well how much he weighed.

But now the live broadcast is on...

Embarrassing in front of a national audience.

It's not really good.

"but……"

"It's like I went up the mountain on Junior Brother Xiao's back..."

"It's quite embarrassing in itself, isn't it?"

The team moved on.

Although some seracs could be vaguely seen around the sight when setting off from the transition camp, when the team continued to move forward and truly entered the section of the East Rongbuk Glacier, everyone had the opportunity to truly face these seracs.

Yes, in the mountaineering route on the north slope of Mount Everest, on the way from the transitional camp to the forward camp, you must pass through the spectacular East Rongbuk Glacier directly into the serac forest, and pass through the surrounding sharp seracs of various shapes and sizes.

As early as when the system simulated the learning space for practice, Xiao Ning had already admired all the scenery around here more than once.

So when such a magnificent and rare beauty suddenly appeared, he still remained calm.

However, some of the Red Bull staff and Qian Zhen, who were here for the first time, all had expressions of yearning and contentment on their faces.

Although everyone except Qian Zhen and Xiao Ning who didn't look tired at all were tired to a certain extent, after actually setting foot on the glacier section and seeing these special scenery that can only be found on Mount Everest, the feeling of exhaustion arose spontaneously. The refreshing feeling can still make everyone feel happy.

Walking in such a forest of ice towers, some staff members who had been slightly hyperactive before felt that even the slightest bit of dizziness had been wiped away.

There are billions of people in this world.

There are 6000 snow-capped mountains in the world with an altitude above 144 meters, and there are 7000 extremely high-altitude snow-capped mountains above 37 meters.

But among billions of people, only a few can set foot on these natural wonders.

Most people can only perceive these wonders from the screen throughout their lives.

They can see those magnificent visual effects through the screen, but they can't appreciate the biting cold wind blowing on their faces, they can't feel the frost that turns into each breath when it leaves the mouth, and they can't feel the pain of stepping on the ice and snow on the snow-capped mountains. The special feeling on rock and snow surfaces.

A person's life is short, and the things he can experience are extremely limited. However, most people are restricted by many factors and cannot choose to experience more. Many people even stay in a small circle for their entire lives, as if they are being kept in captivity. They live like a flock of sheep, working, eating, drinking, and sleeping. They are so busy that they can’t even take a break. It’s hard to survive until they can rest. People who are exhausted by work can only think about getting a good night’s sleep. It's quite satisfying.

At this time, everyone who continues to move forward on the East Rongbuk Glacier will feel more or less lucky after appreciating the extremely unique and majestic scenery.

Lucky to have the opportunity to come here.

I am lucky to have been able to see, hear and feel this place in my short life.

Some people say that because people are destined to die from birth, life is destined to be just a process of experience.

How your life is depends on what you have experienced during this period of time, and what kind of ups and downs you have experienced.

At this time, the people on the glacier scanning the seracs, the ice on their feet, and the mountain tops in the distance are indeed very lucky.

Everyone is lucky enough to have such a unique scene and experience in their lives.

In order to save energy, the atmosphere in the advancing team had always been very quiet.

However, no one knew who was interested at this time and expressed his lifelong feelings.

"It's so beautiful..."

After hearing this voice, Xiao Ning, who continued to move forward expressionlessly, turned his head and looked at the other people around him.

After noticing that everyone seemed to be in a very good mood, there was a trace of ripples on his expressionless face.

When he turned back and continued walking, Xiao Ning suddenly felt that the scenery in front of him, which he had experienced countless times in the system simulation learning space, suddenly became novel and surprising.

"It's indeed beautiful..."

Everyone on the scene who was still heading towards the camp was in a very good mood.

As for the viewers who were watching the live broadcast from multiple camera angles, their emotions were quite complicated at the moment.

"This section of the road has reached the Rongbuk Glacier."

"This place is so beautiful."

"There is snow, blue sky, ice, snow rocks, white, brown, blue... There are only these colors, but they don't look monotonous at all."

"It would be nice to have the opportunity to visit a place like this once in a lifetime."

"Don't worry, brother, you won't have this chance. The foreman called me. There are six trucks of bricks waiting to be moved to the construction site. He said that if he can't move them within an hour, he will drive you away, so don't Let’s watch the live broadcast.”

"Woooooo! I'll move the bricks right away."

"What the hell! I'm just watching a live broadcast, bro, it's okay for you to ruin the scenery, why don't you tell the truth! I'm so allergic to the truth!"

"For most people, if they want to visit a place like this, they can only hope to have a good pregnancy in their next life, right?"

"Having said this, I suddenly feel envious of Ning Shen."

"Well... although I also envy Ning Shen, Ning Shen shouldn't be the person you envy the most. You should envy the giant baby on his back. His grandma's. Ning Shen is so awesome that he has even become a god. Do you have to go by yourself? Who the hell is watching all this behind the back of the giant baby!" "Okay! I'm really jealous of the treatment of the giant baby!"

"..."

The barrage in the live broadcast room was flashing, and the marching team continued to walk towards the advance camp. The surrounding wind, the clouds in the sky, and the ice towers that were constantly being left behind by the team silently accompanied everyone.

Compared with actually climbing over the difficult sections of snow-capped mountains that require climbing skills, hiking on this plateau is indeed very easy. It seems that you only need to adapt to the low oxygen environment caused by the low air density and have enough physical fitness.

But that's just what it looks like.

The difficulty of hiking on the plateau is low, which is only compared to the real climbing process.

For experienced and well-trained mountaineers, it is indeed not difficult.

But for some members of the Red Bull entourage who are in good health but only have partial experience, when they have walked more than half of the nine kilometers from the transition camp to the advance camp, various adverse reactions in the body have begun to occur one after another. And here we are.

When the altitude rose to more than [-] meters, and there was only a little distance left to advance to the camp, the film crew member who had suffered from mild hypersensitivity before was already using a large amount of oxygen.

Even so, his legs felt like they were filled with lead, and he continued to walk forward with the help of a member of the mountaineering team.

When we finally arrived at the advance camp, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

The total distance is just over nine kilometers, but it took the whole team more than five hours to get here.

In fact, this forward speed is already relatively fast compared to some people.

It shows how difficult high-altitude hiking is.

Although the advance camp is far smaller than the transitional camp or the base camp, there are actually quite a lot of yellow tents on this relatively flat snow surface.

When Xiao Ning and others arrived, people already arranged by Red Bull in advance came out of the tent to assist them.

In fact, in addition to Red Bull, there are other mountaineering teams in the forward camp who are preparing to try to climb Mount Everest in winter.

Xiao Ning even saw a foreigner climbing team composed of a mustache and several blond foreigners.

While the people at the camp were helping to take care of the staff who were feeling more seriously ill, Xiao Ning happened to hear the mustached climber talking on the phone, speaking in neon language with a pure hometown flavor.

"I'm from the country of Little Japan..."

Xiao Ning was a little surprised.

He originally thought that Mustache was from the Dragon Kingdom.

In addition, the chance of seeing foreign climbers on the north slope is actually lower than on the south slope.

This is because the northern slope line is within the territory of Dragon Kingdom.

Compared with the south slope route in another country, which has looser management and restrictions, on the north slope route, the local authorities actually have higher requirements for climbers to reach the summit.

If you want to try to reach the summit on the south slope route, you only need to provide proof of summiting any 7000-meter peak.

But for the north slope route, you must show proof of summiting an 8000-meter peak.

The reason why Xiao Ning and Qian Zhen were able to attack the summit later was because of special approval from the relevant local authorities.

Under normal circumstances, without these certificates and without special relationships, you will not be allowed to challenge the summit.

In addition to this limitation, the commercial maturity of the south slope line is also much higher than that of the north slope line.

In addition, the north slope route in Longguo requires foreigners to have a "Z certificate" and relevant departments to arrange travel and even training plans, etc.

Therefore, foreigners are usually more willing to try the southern slope route to the summit.

Xiao Ning didn't think much about the appearance of the foreign mountaineering team. After looking at Liangyan for a while, he returned to his tent.

Before entering the tent, Xiao Ning could already hear the people inside shouting that they had a headache.

Judging from the voice, it was the same staff member who helped him hold the gimbal.

"Is it serious?"

Xiao Ning opened the curtain and walked into the tent, and saw the cameraman whose face was already red.

The accompanying medical staff on the side nodded and glanced at the screen of the instrument in his hand: "The blood oxygen has dropped a little. Under normal circumstances, even mild to moderate altitude sickness will not lower the blood oxygen saturation. of."

Xiao Ning raised his eyebrows: "Severe high fever?"

The medical staff pursed his lips and said, "That's not a problem at all. His complexion is actually pretty good now. Judging from the symptoms, he should have mild to moderate hyperlipidemia."

"Add some oxygen and some fluids, and you'll get better after resting for a while. But it's best to descend tomorrow. After all, no one knows if there will be any accidents up here."

"It's not just him."

"I just asked around and found that several of our colleagues at Red Bull are feeling quite unwell."

"Let's see if it feels better after a night's rest. If it's serious, they will have no choice but not to go to Camp 7000. They can't withstand the altitude of [-] meters."

Xiao Ning nodded, and then went to a few uncomfortable staff members to express some concern before walking out of the tent again.

Because the next journey will be to completely enter the snow line and start climbing the snow mountain.

For safety reasons and the intention to restore physical strength, Xiao Ning and others will spend the night at the forward camp tonight and continue to rise in altitude tomorrow.

After seven o'clock in the evening, it was already dark.

Something happened that made everyone feel nervous.

After diagnosis by the accompanying medical personnel, the camera guy was in very bad condition.

"He is now severely hyperactive."

"Although this camp already has some medical equipment..."

"But...I'm worried that he won't be able to survive this night."

"If it's for safety reasons."

"It's best to send it off now."

"If it's serious..."

"His life is in danger."

"In addition, there are two people who are not in good condition, but they will be fine until tomorrow."

The medical staff spoke to the temporary head of the Red Bull entourage.

The person in charge immediately called Chen Qing, the person in charge of the Everest project who was waiting for news at the base camp.

During the negotiation between the two.

Xiao Ning frowned tightly.

When we were taking a short break on the way, the people from the mountaineering team talked to the people from Red Bull about the North Slope route. At that time, someone in the four-person mountaineering team said that the forward camp was called the Devil’s Camp or the Death Camp. At that time, Xiao Ning still didn't understand why he was named like this...

I understand now.

Although when we first arrived at the advance camp, everyone was in good condition except for the cameraman who was a little more uncomfortable.

But after resting for so many hours, more people felt uncomfortable.

"This is because we are always at an altitude of 500 meters..."

"But now is not the time to think about that."

"If this camera guy doesn't go down tonight, I'm afraid something will happen."

Xiao Ning glanced at the stars outside the tent window and raised his eyebrows.

"it's getting dark."

"Not to mention that the forward camp does not have the conditions to take off and land helicopters now. Even if there are conditions, even Red Bull will not be able to find a plateau helicopter that can fly at this altitude this night. Even if it can be found, there will be no pilot who dares to fly here. It’s a dark night to fly a mission!”

"so……"

"What should we do now?"
