Chapter 526 Little Yellow Duck in the Wind
Makalu, one of the most difficult 8,000-meter peaks to climb.
Of course, it still is.
And this is even more true after the climate of Blue Star becomes harsh.
Furthermore, now that the sun is far away, it can be said that the difficulty of climbing Mount Makalu will be dozens of times higher than before!
The general climate of Makalu is similar to that of Mount Everest, divided into dry season and rainy season.
Now in September, it is the rainy season on Makalu Peak.
The heavy rain brought by the strong southeast monsoon caused frequent ice avalanches and avalanches, resulting in a harsh climate of clouds, fog, and ice and snow on the mountain. Especially after the climate became more severe, Makalu Peak was simply a hell of ice and snow.
So there are basically no climbing activities now.
Most climbers are not very lucky. Their awakened spirits are not strong, and they themselves are not strong enough to withstand the harsher climate, so they give up.
Only a small number of climbers continue to climb.
They can either withstand the [challenge] and thus obtain a huge improvement, allowing themselves to withstand harsh weather to a certain extent.
Or they have awakened powerful spiritual attributes above the special level, and can rely on spiritual attributes to fight against the harsh weather.
So those who dare to climb now are basically strong.
But... Zhang Ye was the first to rush up the mountain wearing a pair of big pants.
At this time, Zhang Ye was already at an area of more than 2,000 meters above Makalu Peak, and it only took less than ten minutes.
The area ahead was basically rocky, with little snow, and the slope was suitable, so Zhang Ye and Bai could just climb up the slope and rush up.
But after reaching the 2,000-meter level, it can no longer be done.
The temperature is lower now than before, the ice and snow are thicker and more windy.
So after reaching the 2,000-meter section, Zhang Ye and Bai began to use their hands and feet to climb steadily up using rock climbing skills.
It is from this area that the challenge really comes.
Zhang Ye did not choose a conventional climbing route.
To conquer is to challenge and succeed in the most direct way!
No matter where you start, wherever you look, all the way up, as long as you can reach the top, it is considered a conquest!
If you have to choose the right weather, choose the right route, and bring the right equipment, then this kind of challenge will not make much sense to Zhang Ye.
What he wants is to challenge his own limits!
This is also the reason why Zhang Ye took Makalu Peak as his first 8,000-meter mountain challenge.
He wants to prepare for the subsequent challenge of Mount Everest.
With his fingers piercing into the solid ice like ice picks, Zhang Ye was like a gecko, climbing on the nearly vertical mountain wall, with Bai beside him.
The higher you go up, the lower the temperature and the stronger the wind.
After thirty minutes, Zhang Ye and Bai finally reached the 3,000-meter section. At this time, the temperature had dropped to minus 20 degrees, and the wind speed exceeded 40 meters per second.
Zhang Ye has already begun to feel this.
My hands and feet began to feel cold, and the strong wind made my eyes sore, but these were still bearable.
"Xiao Bai, how do you feel?" Zhang Ye shouted to Bai.
"I don't feel anything." Bai said.
Zhang Ye: "..."
Well, back then Bai had withstood the test of the tenth-level harsh environment. For her, this level of difficulty was like nothing else.
It seems that I can't lose either.
If you are much weaker than your wife, you will be laughed at if you tell me.
Zhang Ye cheered himself up in his mind, and then climbed up quickly.
As night falls, the temperature begins to drop sharply, and the wind in the mountains becomes stronger and stronger.
Finally, after taking nearly another hour, Zhang Ye and Bai arrived at the 4,000-meter section and settled on a snowy slope.
At this time, Zhang Ye was standing in the cold wind. The low temperature of more than 30 degrees below zero made the surface of his skin slightly red, but it was still acceptable.
The hands and feet that have been in constant contact with the ice and snow are starting to turn a little white.
"Huh..." Zhang Ye breathed out, and the water vapor he breathed out froze into ice crystals in mid-air.
"There are still more than 4,000 meters. It is now 9:30 in the evening. The climbing speed becomes slower as we go up. I estimate that it will take us an hour and a half to reach the height of 5,000 meters."
"And because the weather has become harsh, many climbing routes are covered by ice and we have to take detours..." As he said this, Zhang Ye could already feel the difficulty.
Originally, he thought that with his current physical fitness, it would be no problem to climb Makalu Peak with bare hands, but now it seems that it needs to be studied...
The little yellow duck's pants were blown loudly in the strong wind.
Seeing this, Bai came to Zhang Ye, stretched out his little hand and grabbed Zhang Ye's pants.
Zhang Ye was shocked: "Xiaobai, you don't... want to be here?"
When Bai heard this, he suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Is it okay?"
"Of course not!" Zhang Ye laughed.
Bai smiled mischievously, and then helped Zhang Ye tighten his belt: "Okay, this way your little yellow duck won't blow away."
Zhang Ye's face turned red and he smiled. It seemed that he was thinking wrongly.
But it is true that if the wind blows from above and the little yellow duck is blown away, he will have to climb the mountain naked. In his opinion, it is not a conquest, but a rogue against the earth, and he must not be laughed at by the earth.
Just thinking about it makes me blush.
Zhang Ye shook his head to get rid of the strange thoughts in his mind. He also cleared the blood on his head and looked at Bai.
At this time, Bai was wearing a white sports vest and sports shorts. The shorts also had a playful women's skirt.
As the strong wind howled by, her white hair also fluttered in the air.
At this time, she was looking into the distance, admiring the beautiful scenery of the mountains. The white moonlight fell on the side of her face, making her face look more delicate.
Her skin is fair, and the moonlight falls on it, making the light and shadow more obvious, perfectly showing the lines of her body, and even the vest line on her lower abdomen can be seen clearly.
It's really beautiful.
Snow-white snow and snow-white white really go well together.
Okay, let’s take a short rest and start again! Junqu Pavilion
The two continued to climb up in a rock-climbing manner.
The higher you go, the thicker the ice becomes. When Zhang Ye embeds his fingers in the ice, he feels a slight pain.
And the most terrible thing is not the ice, but the strong wind!
At an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, the wind speed had reached 60 meters per second, and it was still continuous.
So Zhang Ye had to press his hands and feet against the mountain wall with all his strength in order to stabilize himself from being blown away by the strong wind.
Of course, he can completely activate [Shisuke] to control the strong wind, or simply let the wind turn his surroundings into a windless land, but that would lose the meaning of the challenge.
The continuous exertion and explosion, fighting against the strong wind and ice and snow, greatly exhausted Zhang Ye's physical strength. At this time, the tens of millions of energy stored in his body came into play, allowing Zhang Ye to have far more continuous physical strength.
But even so, Zhang Ye still felt muscle soreness, especially every time he used his hands and feet to pull himself up, he felt that his muscles were tearing.
The wind and snow outside were also moving across my body like a razor, and the stinging pain of ice spread throughout my body.
The most important thing is that when the cold wind gets into the trouser legs and blows into the little yellow duck's nest, it is really cold to the balls...
Fortunately, I can still persist.
And just as Zhang Ye gritted his teeth and headed towards the top of the mountain, Gu Xie was sitting on the top of the mountain, leisurely drinking scented tea.
His eyes traveled through thousands of meters of wind and snow, and landed on Zhang Ye. Looking at the sharp muscle lines, which looked like miraculous workmanship, Gu Xie's eyes gradually became blurred.
"Suck..."
"It's so tempting~"
