Bi Fang climbed all the way up, the stability was terrifying, as if this was not a human being at all, but a real climbing machine.
In the entire live broadcast room, except for the sound of wind, there was only the sound of low and fast breathing.
The audience trembled, their mouths slightly opened, and their lungs couldn't help but begin to expand with the sound of breathing, again and again.
Looking at the nearly vertical Mount Everest in the picture, Rob's whole body was covered in cold sweat. All his strength and courage were drained away with the cold sweat. He couldn't stand up or move. The only thing that could move was his brain.
If possible, he really wanted to fly to Mount Everest right now, pry open Bifang's skull and see if there was any emotion of "fear" in it, and whether he was still a "human being" in the biological category.
Fear?
Bi Fang doesn't know, maybe it will, maybe it won't.
At this moment, he has completely entered the "flow" state. He only has climbing in his mind and no longer has any distracting thoughts. Even if he reaches such a height and oxygen is so scarce, it is impossible to keep his brain highly active.
In this case, then turn off all other functions that hinder thinking, abandon emotions, distracting thoughts, and distractions, leaving only thinking about the landing point.
Throw away the future and the past, leaving only the present.
Now, there is a glimmer of hope.
The only problem is, Bifang isn't really a machine.
At an altitude of 8398.37 meters, Bi Fang stopped on a raised piece of bright ice that could accommodate two people standing on it. With a place to stand, he could finally buffer his position and rest for a while.
He breathed in large gulps of air to calm down the hypoxic state after strenuous exercise. The thin, cold air poured from his mouth all the way into his lungs. It was as cold as a broken knife, cutting the trachea and alveoli inch by inch.
The previous sprint made Bifang a little dizzy, which would affect his judgment. For this reason, he had to stop and rest. Since oxygen could not be provided, he could only throttle back. After taking a few big breaths, the discomfort finally disappeared.
We started running at 8,000 meters at 5:30, and the time had already reached 7:00 sharp.
Now we also stopped for a while at 8200 meters and rested for a quarter of an hour. So far, everything is going well. It is predicted that we can reach the summit before twelve o'clock, leaving enough time for the descent.
Thinking of this, Bifang took out a water bag from his pocket and sipped it in small sips. The warm water quickly soothed his throat. Then he took out an energy bar from his pocket and chewed five large ones in a row.
At this moment, the Fish King's stomach bag finally made its mark. The food entered the stomach along the throat and quickly collided with the gastric acid. The stomach surged and ground the food. It was continuously digested, quickly replenishing energy for Bifang's body and relieving fatigue.
.
Puba in the live broadcast room also saw Bifang's plan. It has to be said that it is difficult to imagine that such a young mountaineer would have such a precise and cautious plan.
You know, a few dozen meters in front is the "balcony"!
An exposed platform located at 8,400 meters is an iconic point that many climbers call the "balcony."
The huge protruding rock allows climbers to stop for a short rest, but Bi Fang stopped decisively after rising 200 meters, without any greed for the so-called "landmark building" achievement.
It's like when playing a game, the boss is about to die, but his attack will follow. As long as one more slash is needed, the boss will die suddenly. However, Bi Fang chose not to slash this slash and retreated decisively to find the next opening to attack.
.
[Take a break every 200 meters, for fifteen minutes at a time, to avoid muscle relaxation and get a full rest at the same time. It is a very precise plan. What is even more valuable is that there is a "balcony" less than a hundred meters ahead, but he can still
We were forced to stop and rest. If it were me, I would probably lead the team to persist a little longer. It’s amazing.]
[Thousands of words condensed into two words, awesome]
【Isn’t that shit? 】
【Fuck that awesome】
[There are still four hundred meters to go, my heart is excited and my hands are trembling]
[Adventurer, Joe William, 48 years old...]
[The one in front, something is wrong with you]
[An animal like this that runs in the mountains for many years must have very good meat quality.]
Soon, a quarter of an hour passed, and Bi Fang didn't feel like relaxing. After getting up and doing some exercise, he continued to move forward.
The sun had already risen and the temperature had risen, but Bi Fang estimated that the temperature at this time was still below minus 30 degrees. Maybe it would rise to around minus 25 degrees by 1 p.m.
The advantages of the equipment at this time finally came to light. Even though Bi Fang's clothing looked very "thin" at the moment, he only felt a slight coldness. Even this slight cold feeling disappeared after a short period of exercise.
The same goes for the shoes on your feet, which will not cause water seepage or stiff toes due to the cold.
Looking around, we can no longer see the entire majestic mountain range, only a few peaks with their peaks exposed.
There are flowing light golden clouds all around, which will turn into white clouds when the sun rises.
At this moment, Bi Fang's heart was so majestic and lonely, as if he was living in a dreamland.
There are no people, no cities, no trivial matters of life, only the sky and clouds, and the mountains that stretch under the sky and above the earth.
Fortunately, being lonely is not a bad thing. At least Bi Fang doesn't have to worry about being "jammed in traffic" because of the crowds.
As the climb continued, Puba also continued to explain some matters to increase the audience's participation.
[Before we prepare to sprint, we often empty our bowels in advance, especially girls. It is really inconvenient to take off the seat belt and down jacket before going to the toilet again before setting off. 】
[At this altitude, another very important thing is to avoid falling asleep on the way to the summit. I was so sleepy once that I almost fell asleep while walking, which was very dangerous.
Ultra-high altitude can cause drowsiness, and usually the two or three days before sprinting are not enough. People often fall asleep while climbing and fall off the cliff. Without a safety rope, they are bound to die.]
audience:"."
A bit outrageous.
[My personal experience is to hold a few lozenges or plums in your mouth, or listen to music; you must continue to think and talk to your soul]
Bifang did not understand Puba's explanation. At this moment, he was fully focused on fighting against the mountain wall in front of him.
At this time, Bi Fang discovered that on the path he chose, there was a nearly vertical mountain wall. It was not high, only about ten meters, but it actually stretched across the road.
Seeing this scene, Bi Fang wanted to go around, but the stone wall was not high, but unusually wide. The distance to go around was quite far, more than 100 meters, and there were at least several 70-degree steep slopes on the road.
I weighed it in my mind and found that it would consume less energy to climb over directly.
Helpless, Bi Fang had no choice but to face the difficulty, put away his ice ax, tightened his gloves, and prepared to climb the rock with bare hands.
This kind of road condition is not uncommon, but most of them are climbed by teams, and a safety rope can provide a certain degree of protection. It is completely different from climbing alone.
[Generally speaking, rock walls with excessive slopes will not be covered with ice and snow, because the gravity and friction are relatively low, making it impossible for the ice and snow to stand firmly, coupled with strong winds, so there are many exposed rocks on high mountains, even if they exceed the snow line.
.]
[Although the ice ax is hard and sharp, it can only move on the ice wall. If the rock wall is too hard, it will increase the risk of damage to the ice ax. Generally speaking, ice axes are divided into T and B. B is sharper and T is harder, but even if
The T-shaped pickaxe tip is very strong and cannot be used completely on rock walls, so when encountering terrain like this, the only option is rock climbing.】
High-altitude mountaineering is inherently lightweight, so you don’t need to carry too much spare equipment. Just like this time, Bi Fang only brought three ice axes. If one is broken, it will become very difficult later.
In the live broadcast room, Puba explained dutifully.
Bi Fang grabbed a protruding rock with his palms and pressed his body close to the wall, "swimming" bit by bit. His body was as flexible as a gecko, climbing quickly on the rocks under his feet.
Double-layer gloves can avoid slipping hands as much as possible, and the crampons on the soles of the feet are firmly embedded in the stone crevices, with at least three points of focus, steadily moving upwards.
But surprises always seem to catch people off guard.
When he reached a third of the way out of the stone wall, Bi Fang steadied his body and freed his right hand, only to find that there was not a single bulge in the surrounding stone walls within the entire circumference of his arm.
