828 Ready to Climb

Wuding Kaishan is a mythical story. It tells that King Hui of Qin wanted to destroy the Shu Kingdom, but there was no road between Qin and Shu at that time, so he took advantage of the local greed of the King of Shu and had five huge stone cows carved out.

He presented it to the King of Shu, saying that the stone ox could yield gold. The greedy and ignorant King of Shu believed it, so he sent five strong men to dig mountains and pave a road, and dragged the stone ox from Qin back to Chengdu, Shu.

On the way back, the five men saw a giant snake entering the cave, so they tried hard to pull out the giant snake and get rid of it. As a result, the entire mountain collapsed, and the five strong men were crushed by the mountain.

However, the road they built was used by Qin State. General Sima Cuo of Qin State followed the road they opened and advanced all the way, destroying Shu and Ba. After seizing this land of abundance, Qin State established a great empire.

It laid a solid foundation for the unification of the six countries by Qin Shihuang in later generations.

This is the origin of this tragic and heroic poem in Li Bai's "The Road to Shu is Difficult". This legend is recorded in the "Huayang Guozhi" and the "Historical Records" of the King of Shu. Of course, opening a road to Shu is just a matter of

It is impossible to rely on five people, but we can also vaguely see how much effort the ancestors spent in building the plank road.

Gu Fengchun sighed with emotion. What Tang Maiqiu and the other six built was not a plank road, but a "rope road", a road to climb to heaven that relied on climbing ropes. The radiant temple on the top of the mountain was serving the purpose of the group of people who were struggling.

The warriors who built the road illuminated the road. But Gu Fengchun knew very well that what was under that light was not glory and gain, but death and danger.

That night, Gu Fengchun couldn't sleep tossing and turning. Because from time to time one or two pieces of gravel would fall from the top of the rock wall. Although everyone's camp was far away from the rock wall, the stones falling from high altitude could still cause a lot of damage.

Every time he heard the sound, Gu Fengchun felt nervous, worried that the person who fell was a big living person. If it fell from such a high place, let alone a human being, even the Transformers would have to go back to the factory to be re-melted.

.

But Gu Fengchun didn't know that he wasn't the only one who couldn't sleep. That night, Chen Si and Qin Chuan both tossed and turned, each with their own concerns. When it dawned, Chen Si got out of the camp as soon as possible.

, the good communicator communicates with Tang Maiqiu and others above.

Tang Maiqiu's voice was obviously a little hoarse. After a night of non-stop work, they were exhausted. But their results are also very amazing. So far, they have climbed to a height of nearly 2,300 meters! At most

It only takes two hours for them to open the road to the top of the mountain.

Chen Si was very excited. This data was obviously a great encouragement to him. Tang Maiqiu and the others had actually created a miracle.

Chen Si immediately announced the news. This news was also exciting news for the team members. Everyone immediately geared up and prepared to climb the road opened by the warriors last night. But Chen Si told

Everyone, the team's departure time is set in two hours. He wants to give Tang Maiqiu and others sufficient rest time. During this period, Chen Si asked all team members to leave all unnecessary things in the camp below.

To be able to travel lightly and reduce the weight on the body, there is an upper limit to the weight of each climbing rope. After calculation, Chen Si stipulated that there can only be two people climbing at the same time on a rope, and the limit is also

There can be no more than three, otherwise there is a risk that the pitons may fall off, and the impact force that a climbing rope can withstand is only 5 tons. If two people fall, they can barely hold on, but if there are three people, it is a bit mysterious.

If there are more than three people, you have to say Amitabha.

These team members are all good rock climbers, so they naturally understand that Chen Si’s requirements are for their safety. So they also strive to reduce their own weight. Climbing a three-thousand-meter rock wall is a very crazy thing to think about.

Not to mention the physical strength required to do this. Apart from expensive nutritional tablets and water, no one even brought canned meat, and their clothes were all thrown away. Except for weapons, they refused to give up anything else.

All were lost. Some team members were so careful that they cut the beards and hair that had grown out these days much shorter. The weight is insignificant, but when you are tired, a straw can break a camel's back.

After finishing, the team members began to eat. During this meal, they ate as much as their bodies could tolerate, so that their bodies would have enough energy to cope with this climb. Everyone knew that

, if you don’t have enough physical strength, you won’t be able to climb up at all. If you can’t climb up, it will naturally be difficult to climb down. If you stay in mid-air, no one can save you, and you will be dead in the end.

Some even wear goggles. These goggles can adjust people's field of vision, similar to a telescope. When looking at things, they can bring distant places closer. When looking down, these goggles can reduce the distance between people.

Fear at high altitudes. Seeing the high morale, Chen Si was very pleased.

Everyone also tried their best to show that they were the best soldiers and that the small rock wall was not a problem. However, many people found a place and smoked non-stop. This small movement let Chen Si know that in fact,

Many of them are still very nervous in their hearts, but they just don't show it.

Chen Si will contact Tang Maiqiu every twenty minutes to determine the progress of the above homework. Tang Maiqiu's voice is short and tired, but their news still makes Chen Si happy. Tang Maiqiu is no longer

Knowing how many drill bits and batteries had been replaced in the electric drill in his hand, he only knew that there were not many pitons left, but it should be enough. This made him feel relieved. From last night to now, these six people had only rested for an hour.

, I have been sitting on a leather strap tied to the buttonhole of the climbing rope and swinging for an hour. I really can’t imagine how these six people could sleep.

Tang Maiqiu turned his head and looked at the teams of Hao Sandao and Bazi on both sides. Their speed was much slower than before. It seemed that they didn't have much strength left.

"Do you need to rest?" Tang Maiqiu consulted everyone's opinions, and added: "We still have four hours, and they will not climb the mountain in two hours, and when they climb to our section,

It will be at least two hours later." Tang Maiqiu was very good at mathematics and calculated the marching speed of the team members very accurately.
