The man nodded and turned to leave, but Li Xiao quickly stopped him.
"Brother, don't leave yet. Check to see if this is the one with you."
Hearing what Li Xiao said, the man quickly walked over and looked at the person who had just been dug out by Li Xiao.
"Yes, it's him!"
When Gao Feng heard this, he quickly went up and carried the frozen man on his back, while Li Xiao and the others protected him.
When I met other people on the way, they all said hello and said that I had found him.
Gao Feng placed the person on the ground in the camp and spread a layer of sleeping bags underneath.
If this person is severely frozen, he cannot use hot water and must use snow.
Everyone was a veteran, and no one didn't know this common sense. Someone went out and dug a basin of snow over, and then started to rub his body.
After who knows how long, the man's whole body began to turn red, and it was scary to touch his body, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xiao took out the liquor from his backpack and said, "Give some more, it should feel better."
Then he took out the butter again.
"Feed less white wine, otherwise it will make him even colder after drinking it. Let him drink some butter tea after he calms down."
As Li Xiao spoke, he used hot water to make a bowl for everyone.
No one refused, some didn't have a bowl, so they just waited for the last person to finish drinking before drinking again.
After drinking this bowl of butter tea, I feel warm all over my body.
After the night's torment, everyone was exhausted. Two people were left to look at the one who had just been rescued, and the rest went to rest.
It would be no exaggeration to say that Li Xiao was exhausted that day, so he discussed with Gao Feng and the others that they would not continue going up tomorrow and would rest for a day first.
Gao Feng naturally agreed, but Chen Xu also ran over and asked if they could have some company.
So there was one more person in this temporary team.
Since he didn't plan to continue climbing the peak the next day, Li Xiao didn't get anxious. In addition, he was really tired and didn't wake up until three poles in the morning.
Li Xiao just opened his eyes and saw a big face in front of him. Li Xiao was so frightened that he thought he had not wrapped up his sleeping bag and was frozen all night to meet the King of Hell.
Only after he woke up completely did he realize that this person was the one he rescued yesterday.
When the man saw that Li Xiao was awake, his eyes filled with tears, "Little brother, you're awake! I, I'm so grateful to you! If it weren't for you, I might have been watching you in the sky now."
Someone next to me swore a curse word, "Xiao Liu, can you shut up that mouth of yours? You're here to scare people in broad daylight."
Xiao Liu took a sip on the ground and said, "You are the only one who is timid. A grown-up man, no girl is so brave!"
The two of them started arguing back and forth, and Li Xiao watched. If it wasn't for the fact that Xiao Liu wasn't in good health, I'm afraid they would have to fight.
The two people here are still arguing, and Li Xiao has already washed up.
At this time, Chen Xu ran over and said, "Xiaoxiao, look, how about we have hot pot today?"
Li Xiao felt a chill and said, "Eat, eat, eat, but let's discuss whether you can stop calling me Xiaoxiao."
Chen Xu looked unconcerned, "What's that called? Harm, it's just a name. You can also call me Xu Xu."
Gao Feng burst out laughing on the side, "Xuxu? I'm still peeing!"
The two people were making trouble there, and Li Xiao was helpless and didn't bother to pay attention to them.
He turned around and asked, "Shall we have hot pot for lunch?"
The question was about Xiao Liu and his team. Because of what happened to Xiao Liu, they did not move forward and stayed for a day to rest.
They didn't expect that Li Xiao wanted to prepare food and brought them a portion.
"Eat! Why don't you eat it! I've been chewing on compressed biscuits all day long, and I almost feel like a bird has appeared in my mouth."
Eat and drink, no one took advantage of Li Xiao, they all came here with their own things.
There was a large firewood-burning pot in the camp, and they used it to make a hot pot.
There is almost everything there, and the normal items might be various pancakes, steamed buns, jerky, and the like.
I don’t know who got it where, but there was also a package of dried fish thrown in there.
Some people even brought tsampa and almost threw it in, but Li Xiao quickly stopped him. I'm afraid it would just fall apart if thrown in. Isn't this a waste?
There was a girl in Xiao Liu's team who also brought a pack of fruit and vegetable crisps. She actually said she wanted to see what it would taste like when cooked in a hot pot, so she also threw it in.
Just such a weird hot pot, and a group of people gathered around the stove to eat it enthusiastically.
Others brought wine, and those who drank drank a glass, while those who did not drink shared some and joined in the fun.
Later, when the wine was almost drunk, Xiao Liu and his team also had two people who had been in the army. When I asked, they were in the same camp as Gao Feng. They were in a different company. They might have encountered them during training, but they didn't pay attention.
These few people who had served in the military were bragging about it at first, but later they recalled their squad leaders and comrades when they were soldiers, and even cried as they talked about it.
Some people said that a comrade-in-arms was shot while trying to cover him, but luckily he was fine.
The rest of the people were laughing and watching them cry. Finally, Xiao Liu couldn't stand it anymore and gave one of them a kick.
"Cry, cry, cry, it doesn't matter how old you are, it's not like you can't be contacted, just be fine!"
This may not sound so nice, but the fact is that, whether they are adventurous people or soldiers in the army, the best thing is that everyone is fine.
As long as the person is fine, the rest is not important!
The man was kicked but was not angry. He looked like he had drunk too much. He even led a group of people to sing military songs.
If someone comes over, they can hear a bunch of uneven "one, two, three, four".
Later, it was almost time for the cultural performance. At first, it was a program that someone insisted on performing for everyone, but later it turned into a group of people playing rock, paper, scissors, and whoever loses performs.
Everyone was drunk, and there were a bunch of hands there, and they couldn't tell who was who, and they didn't even see who was winning or losing. Sometimes they would just point at someone randomly and insist that they lost.
Everyone didn’t care. If they lost, they would sing a few lines at the top of their lungs. Then the people below would laugh and curse, saying, “It’s really killing me.” “What the hell are you singing?” and applaud them.
When he was really drunk, he threw his things there without even thinking about packing them away, and then each of them wrapped himself in a sleeping bag and fell asleep.
Someone was sleepy and went out to get some water. When he came back, he couldn't find his sleeping bag and insisted on getting into Xiao Liu's sleeping bag. Xiao Liu was so angry that he kicked him.
The man didn't react when he was kicked, so he just sat on the ground.
After sitting for a while, I woke up, found my sleeping bag, and got in.
By the time everyone got up one after another, it was already getting late.
At that time, most of the people had drunk too much and were sitting on the ground with their eyes blank, nibbling various dry foods in their hands.
After eating hastily, they all took turns washing their faces and then fell asleep again.
The next day, when Li Xiao woke up, Xiao Liu and the others hadn't left yet.
Xiao Liu was suffering from the cold and would not be able to go out for a while, so he could only stay here, leaving one person to accompany him.
As for Feng Lu, it was too dangerous up there and Feng Lu was too squeamish, so I didn't take her with me.
As for whether Feng Lu would be angry because of this, no one cared. Zhuzhu even told Gao Feng directly to ignore her when she got back. In fact, Zhuzhu didn't pay attention to Feng Lu in the camp this time.
Li Xiao called Gao Feng and the others up, and they packed up and planned to continue climbing the peak.
The next stop is North Col C1 Camp!
When heading to the North Col C1 camp, you have to pass a nearly vertical 400-meter ice wall.
At this time, Li Xiao and the others were not far from the ice wall.
cooked rice.
After all, people are iron and rice is steel.
Besides, it would take a lot of strength for them to climb the ice wall.
After several people had almost eaten, they decided to climb the ice wall.
The first one to go up is the peak.
I have to say that although she is from the cooking class, her skills and physical strength are really good.
The second person to go up was Chen Xu.
After asking about it that day, I found out that he was into extreme sports, and climbing the mountain this time was a return trip to his old place. According to his words, last time he only reached the C2 camp and did not reach the summit. He was unwilling to give up, so he just thought about this time.
Let’s try it again.
The two of them climbed to the top very smoothly, which gave Li Xiao confidence in his next actions.
They arranged the only girl in the penultimate position. In this way, if Zhuzhu really didn't have the strength, the two men could still try their best to pull her up. Even if they couldn't pull her up, there was Li Xiao below, anyway.
I can take care of it a little bit.
At first, Zhuzhu's movements were very smooth, until when she was about to go up, her foot suddenly slipped and she lost her footing.
Zhuzhu screamed subconsciously, and then quickly shut up.
It's easy to cause an avalanche up here.
Fortunately, after a while, there was no sound of an avalanche. The people couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled Zhuzhu up.
Next, only Li Xiao is left.
Li Xiao himself felt that he had nothing to worry about, but the few people who had already gone up were quite worried about him. After all, Li Xiao didn't look very strong.
Seeing their worried looks, Li Xiao could only sigh silently.
Li Xiao pulled the climbing rope and climbed up steadily step by step.
When several people saw that he was walking quite steadily, they felt relieved.
At this moment, Li Xiao felt his hands loosen. When he looked up, he saw that the climbing rope had been worn out, and only a little of the rope was still connected.
At that moment, Li Xiao was madly cursing in his heart, even the climbing rope was of inferior quality. This is something that can kill people! Li Xiao decided that if he could go back, he must report the guy who sold the climbing rope!
The few people who had already gone up felt nervous when they saw it.
Chen Xu reacted faster and quickly reached out to hook up the climbing rope that was about to break, but the position was still some distance away from him.
Li Xiao looked at the distance to the top, gritted his teeth, and dug the mountaineering pickaxe in his hand into the ice wall, which could be used as a leverage.
When the people above looked at it, they were no longer so nervous.
However, just when they were relieved, Li Xiao suddenly heard something not far away.
Several other people also heard this sound.
By the time Li Xiao reacted, cold snowflakes were already hitting him.
It's an avalanche!
Zhuzhu's shout before, coupled with the vibration from Li Xiao's mountaineering pickaxe, it was still an avalanche after all.
Chen Xu shouted to Li Xiao: "Hold on to the mountaineering pickaxe and don't let go! Keep your body close to the ice wall!"
Li Xiao had no time to respond, so he quickly did as he asked, then lowered his head to protect his face.
I don’t know how long it took, but Li Xiao’s arms began to lose strength, but Xue was still patting him.
Li Xiao knew that if he didn't want to die, he had to hold on to the climbing pick. Fortunately, although the climbing rope was about to break, he could still hold on for a while.
Gradually, Li Xiao felt like he couldn't move his legs. Looking down, he saw that his entire lower body had been buried, but the snow was still falling.
Now Li Xiao can only take pleasure in the pain and think: This can be regarded as a little help.
Soon, the snow fell more and more quickly, and Li Xiao no longer had the mind to think about other things. The surroundings were freezing cold, and the roaring in his ears was almost deafening.
He knew that it was best to open his mouth at this time to make the pressure inside and outside the same, otherwise his eardrum would be likely to be damaged by the external pressure.
However, when he opened his mouth now, there was only a mouth full of snow, and he could only open his mouth slightly to breathe.
After a while, he couldn't even breathe.
I don't know how long it took, but Li Xiao suddenly felt the climbing rope around his waist move, and he quickly moved his body that was buried in the snow.
Fortunately, he was in a relatively high position, and the avalanche was not very serious, so after struggling upward, his head was finally exposed.
Several people were relieved to see that Li Xiao was fine, but no one dared to speak.
This avalanche has just passed. If the sound was louder, it is very likely to cause a second avalanche.
Chen Xu handed his mountaineering pick to Li Xiao, and Li Xiao dug into the ice wall as usual, and then waited silently for a while. Fortunately, there was no avalanche this time.
Then Li Xiao stepped on his mountaineering pick and struggled to go up. Gao Feng and Chen Xu quickly grabbed him, and it took a lot of effort to pull him up.
Several people sat on the ground tiredly, looking at each other, and then couldn't help it, they all laughed.
But he didn't dare to say anything, and he didn't dare to stay for long. He took a breath and continued walking forward.
Before they lost strength, they reached the C1 camp.
Several people rested for a night at the C1 camp, and then boarded the C2 and C3 camps one after another.
There are even many corpses of climbers around the C3 camp.
After resting, Li Xiao and the others found a day where the wind was not very strong and prepared to climb to the top!
From the first step to the third step, I don’t want to mention the hardships I experienced during the process.
But when Li Xiao planted the national flag in his hand on the top of the mountain, he felt it was worth it!
