Chapter 719 Top of the World
Chapter 719
The next day, Jiang Yuan left the capital alone and rushed to the Yuanwang Sect. After finding that everything was normal in the Yuanwang Sect, Jiang Yuan set off for Nepal.
Climbing the roof of the world from Nepal is the most conventional route and the one with the highest probability of success.
At this time, the development of Nepal was still relatively slow and transportation was not developed.
However, many mountaineers and mountaineering enthusiasts from around the world often come here, some are professional teams, and some are looking for temporary partners.
After Jiang Yuan arrived in Nepal, it took him three days to reach Gade City.
It is only more than 300 kilometers away from the roof of the world, Everest. Even when the weather is good, you can see Everest by flying high in a hot air balloon.
Jiang Yuan found a hotel to rest and prepare to climb the next day.
At night, Jiang Yuan walked on the local streets, looking at the completely different customs and customs, which gave him a fresh feeling of being in a foreign land.
Early the next morning, Jiang Yuan followed a mountaineering team to rest here, paid fifty US dollars as fare, and took a ride.
When he got close to the climbing base camp, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt surprised. He didn't expect there to be so many people here.
Many of them are young people from Western countries. They come here just to see the scenery and regard it as one of the stops on their vacation.
There are about seven or eight teams that really want to climb the mountain. These seven or eight teams are all quite large in number. The smallest one has more than a dozen people and has its own medical staff and supply personnel.
They have professional equipment, and basically everyone has conquered many famous peaks.
But Jiang Yuan could tell that each of their teams was excited and nervous.
In extreme sports, the risk factor of climbing is definitely in the top three.
Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry to climb, but followed the crowd towards a team.
There are fifteen men and one woman in this team.
They were discussing some climbing details and calculating the current weather conditions. They looked extremely professional.
Several other teams are making similar preparations.
Jiang Yuan watched for a while and then walked away. He glanced at the snow-capped peaks, felt the biting cold wind, and decided to wait a while before starting to climb.
By noon, the temperature had risen slightly, but it was still only around minus 20 degrees.
Jiang Yuan watched as a mountaineering team packed up their equipment and began to walk towards the distance. Jiang Yuan also followed.
The players on this team obviously come from different countries and look very confident.
They carried a large amount of equipment on their backs and moved forward step by step.
Jiang Yuan followed them leisurely a hundred meters behind them, strolling leisurely in the courtyard as if he were taking a walk.
Ten minutes later, the base camp was already behind us.
This team also noticed Jiang Yuan's presence.
Their captain is a curly-haired middle-aged man in his forties named Eric. He is very famous in the circle. He has conquered more than a dozen famous mountains such as Namjagbarwa Peak, White Tabulak Peak, and Torre Peak.
mountain peak.
Others in the team also have extensive mountaineering experience.
They tried to climb the roof of the world last year, but due to weather changes, they had to turn around and give up one thousand meters from the summit.
This year, they regrouped and prepared to reach the top in one go.
The only Oriental woman in the team looked cold.
Jun, looked back at Jiang Yuan in the distance without saying a word.
Eric looked at the woman and frowned: "Qiao, why is that person following us?"
Qiao Shan shook her head indifferently, "I don't know."
"Take a rest," Eric said, put down his backpack and sat down.
After a while, Jiang Yuan approached.
Everyone looked at Jiang Yuan, and they were all curious about why Jiang Yuan followed the team.
A bearded man shouted, "Hey, Dongfang boy, do you want to climb with us?"
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "No, I'm just passing by."
A group of people laughed, and then someone said with a serious face: "Look at us, we have cold-proof clothes and all kinds of equipment. What about you? Wear just this little, aren't you cold?"
Jiang Yuan wore a gray woolen sweater and a white casual suit today. If it were an ordinary person, he would have frozen into ice cubes.
Eric also shook his head solemnly, "Young man, if you want to climb the mountain on a whim, I suggest you go back the way you came. This is not a child's play."
Jiang Yuan shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, but it's okay, I'm not afraid of the cold."
Seeing that Jiang Yuan refused to listen, everyone in the team looked away.
They have already warned me, and they have no control over whether you listen or not.
After all, there are many people like Jiang Yuan who climb the mountain on a whim every year. Most of them regret it before they go very far, and there are also many who lose their lives because of their bravery.
Jiang Yuan smiled and continued walking forward.
As for the route, rest points, etc., it doesn't matter to Jiang Yuan at all.
Just walk in a straight line towards the highest mountain.
Seeing Jiang Yuan's figure getting further and further away, Eric frowned and said, "He's going in the wrong direction."
He looked at Qiao Shan again, "Qiao, he doesn't listen to what we say. Do you want to persuade him? Don't lose your life in vain."
Qiao Shan shook her head, "He is not as weak as you think. Instead of worrying about him, it is better to worry about today's weather."
Everyone looked up one after another, their expressions becoming solemn.
According to the weather conditions, there will be strong winds at night, but this is already the best weather condition in the past three months.
"Let's continue on our way."
A group of people walked forward again.
As they climbed up the hillside, their speed became slower and slower. Not only did they have to be careful about slipping, but they also had to pay attention to the surrounding hillsides at all times. If there was an avalanche, it would be the end.
After resting twice, they came to the first trimming point, which was a fairly flat slope.
Eric looked at the sky and said, "Let's rest here tonight, set up a tent, and fix the sleeping bags on the ground with steel nails. They must be hammered down tightly."
Everyone nodded, took out their tools and started working.
An hour later, several tents were erected. They sat in the tents, made hot coffee, and laughed and talked together.
Qiao Shan stood at the entrance of the tent, looking at the distant peaks in a daze, wondering what she was thinking.
At this time, Jiang Yuan was running wildly.
The snow and slippery ice under his feet had no effect on Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan was like an agile snow leopard, running towards the hillside.
Encountering an obstacle several meters high, Jiang Yuan jumped up high, dug his hands into the ice, turned over and climbed up.
Another cliff dozens of meters high appeared in front of us, almost straight.
Jiang Yuan smiled and dug his fingers into the ice arms like steel nails. He pulled his arms and his body jumped up. He climbed up in just a minute.
At this time, Jiang Yuan was already halfway up the main peak, more than 4,000 meters above the ground.
The biting cold wind blows, and the heaven and earth become magnificent here.
Jiang Yuan could even see the light on a small platform several kilometers away, which was the team led by Eric.
Jiang Yuan lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth, turned around and ran away again.
Suddenly, a white shadow made Jiang Yuan stop.
"There are actually other creatures here?"
Jiang Yuan suddenly became interested, glanced at the direction where Bai Ying disappeared, and quickly chased after him.
The white shadow ran along the mountainside for two kilometers and finally got into an ice crevice.
Jiang Yuan stood at the edge of the crack and looked down.
This crack is half a meter wide and spreads deep into the ground, reaching a depth of a hundred meters.
Jiang Yuan even saw a corpse frozen in ice at the bottom of the crack.
Jiang Yuan scanned the entire crack and suddenly discovered that there were many small cracks in the crack. The little thing just got in through the small cracks.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yuan jumped into the crack, inserted his hands into both sides of the ice crack, and moved down quickly.
A few minutes later, Jiang Yuan stepped on the ground and looked up. The 100-meter-high ice walls on both sides were extremely oppressive. It made people feel as small as dust, as if the whole world was pouring towards him, bringing a wave of pressure.
A strong sense of suffocation.
Jiang Yuan shook his head and walked forward along the crack.
When he walked to the frozen corpse, Jiang Yuan knelt down and took a look.
This is a middle-aged man with an oriental face, and his eyes seem to contain deep reluctance and regret.
There was also a photo in his hand. Jiang Yuan took it over and looked at it. In the photo, it was this middle-aged man and his wife and daughter.
Jiang Yuan looked at the backpack that had fallen next to him. After opening it, he found that in addition to some tools, there was also a suicide note written in pencil.
It can be seen that this suicide note was written in a hurry. It should have been written by this man when he was desperate.
With his crooked gestures, it was obvious that the man was suffering from overwhelming pain and cold.
After reading the suicide note, Jiang Yuan fell into silence.
This man was terminally ill and had less than half a year to live. He decided to fulfill his promise to his baby daughter before the end of his life, that is, to go to Mount Everest to find an ice marten as a gift for his daughter.
Ice marten?
Could it be the little thing I just saw?
Could it be that this man risked his life and came down here because he discovered the ice ferret, only to be trapped and die here?
Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at the last sentence of the suicide note.
The man begged that if anyone found him, please give his suicide note to his wife and daughter, telling them that he would always love them.
But there isn't even an address or a name on it, how can you possibly find it?
Jiang Yuan shook his head and wanted to leave. He took two steps but turned back, picked up the suicide note and the photo and stuffed them into his pocket.
Jiang Yuan's eyes kept scanning the ice walls on both sides, and finally locked on a trace of aura.
After walking along the crack for almost five minutes, Jiang Yuan finally spotted the white shadow again.
It was indeed a mink, almost twenty centimeters long, looking up at Jiang Yuan curiously from ten meters away.
