Chapter 329 Men Are Miserable, Even Worse than a Donkey
Half an hour later, Bell and others went up to the top of the mountain, but it still didn't work, and there was still no signal on the mobile phone. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the thick fog filled the mountains. It was gloomy and terrible, and there was also a strong wind. Full of ominous premonition.
"Oh-my-god! Bell, I think we should go!"
Simon heard the rattling sound and looked up. It was the sound of hailstones hitting the camera. At first, the hailstones were the size of rice grains, but after not much effort, they turned into the size of small fingernails, causing pain to the person who hit them. It hurts.
The team quickly evacuated. This night, they were destined to be unable to record the program and had to rest in the village.
Fortunately, after a night of rest and treatment, the weather improved the next day, Yang An and Wang Luodan recovered more than half, the helicopter sent all the personnel over after dawn, and the expedition team embarked on the journey!
"There are a few things you must pay attention to when climbing a mountain. Trekking poles are your most powerful helpers. When walking, you must look at your feet and not at the surrounding scenery. Then you must move forward at a constant speed, maintain your strength, and try not to talk. Well, you are artists, I am afraid I can't keep your mouth shut."
Wang Shi gave a few instructions before leaving, which caused everyone to laugh.
"Yang An, Wang Luodan, can you two do it?"
Wang Shi was very worried about the health of the two of them, and asked, "Why don't you leave your luggage to the staff?"
Yang An shook his head: "No need, the road is so long, how can we shoot with empty hands? Don't worry about me, I can do it here. Which one of you has lighter luggage, and change it with Wang Luodan, so that she can carry less."
Sha Bei raised his hand and said, "My backpack weighs 15 kilograms. I don't have any extra things except luggage."
Everyone began to bury them: "You are the most lazy!"
"You eat more than anyone else, and you don't even help carry your luggage?"
"Senior brother Sha, you are really too unaware, what are you talking about, change quickly!"
"No, what should I change? Just ask him to carry Wang Luodan's luggage on his back!"
Everyone booed, Sha Bei gritted his teeth: "Isn't it just an extra 20 kilograms? I'll carry it!"
Wang Luodan quickly said he didn't dare, but in the end he couldn't compete with everyone, Sha Bei still carried double luggage on his back and went on the road, and Yang An also changed into the second lightest luggage of 18 kg.
Shabei secretly asked before departure: "Why don't we fill the backpack with sticks and air cushions,
Pretending to carry luggage? "
Yang An asked back: "Who will carry the extra stuff? Logistics? Security? Indigenous people? Donkeys and pack horses have to carry food and equipment. There are not so many donkeys to share the load for you. If you are so lazy, what will other people think? Camera Did the big brothers complain that the camera was too heavy? Did Dr. Liu complain that the medicine box was too heavy? Did the logistics complain that the cooking utensils and food were too heavy? If we indulge ourselves once, there will be a second time, which loses the meaning of the challenge! Well, luggage can’t be faked, a truly experienced climber can tell at a glance if the luggage you’re carrying is right.”
Sha Bei sighed: "Don't be angry, I'm not being lazy, I'm just worried that your bodies won't be able to handle it."
Yang An patted him on the shoulder: "You should worry about yourself first, let's go!"
At the beginning of the journey, everyone was very happy, chatting and laughing, but ten minutes later, unmelted snow could be seen on the narrow mountain road, and the ground was covered with gravel rolled from the mountain. Fortunately, everyone was wearing hiking shoes. Use your hands, feet, and limbs together, concentrate on climbing, and concentrate on climbing the mountain.
An hour and a half later, the altitude reached 3,350 meters, and everyone was almost exhausted. They found an abandoned village house on a slightly flat place to rest for a while, and supplemented the chocolates and apples distributed to everyone before departure.
"I can't do it... I'm going to die..." Sha Bei collapsed on the ground. He was carrying nearly 40 kilograms of luggage, trekking poles, heavy hiking boots, and thermal protective clothing. , An hour's trek also made him complain.
Li Jingtian came over: "Let me carry it instead!"
Huang Bo also fought: "I will recite the next section!"
Only Wang Luodan was crying: "I'm sorry, I dragged everyone down, so I'll do it myself next time!"
Several girls were encouraging her, and Huang Bo was even more determined not to allow her to do anything.
The rest of the production team rested on the other side. Yang An stood at a slightly higher place and counted the heads. Counting the hired native porters, there were more than 30 people, each of whom was carrying heavy luggage.
"I'm going to comfort the employees, who of you still has the strength to follow me?"
Yang An walked up to everyone and sighed, "Especially Director Wang and the others, everyone's luggage is no lighter than Sha Bei's. We are the easiest..."
Sha Bei struggled to stand up: "I'll go..."
Guan Xiaotong signed up: "I'll dance for them~"
"I'll go too, it's even more difficult for the staff!"
"Everyone go, let's thank them together..."
Everyone took off their luggage, supported each other, and came to the staff together. Sun Dapao thought that something happened, so he stood up and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Seeing everyone quiet down and staring at him, Yang An was really moved. He endured the discomfort in his body and bowed heavily to the staff. Everyone behind him bowed together and shouted together: "Everyone has worked hard!" ,thank you all!"
Sun Dapao and the others didn't expect such an incident at all, and they were also very moved, and they all laughed.
"It's not hard, this is what we should do!"
"It's you who have worked hard, you are really great!"
"Come on everyone, let's conquer the Himalayas together!"
The morale of the team improved a lot at this moment, and even Bell and Wang Shi became emotional.
Wang Shi gave everyone a thumbs up, sighed and said: "Each of us has our own 'Mount Everest' to climb. I have successfully climbed twice, and I have failed more. In fact, the same is true when we climb Mount Everest in our hearts. Yes. As long as you never give up, never give up, and muster up the courage to do it at the critical moment. Failure is not shameful, but refusing to try is shameful!"
Everyone applauded. Wang Shi is a well-known entrepreneur in China. He is also an old man over 60 years old. His life experience and insights are extremely precious treasures for any young person. I believe that after this episode is played, everyone who sees it The audience of the program will have a deep resonance, to think, to reminisce, and to compare their own lives.
Bell also said a popular proverb in European and American countries: "If we never take action, dreams are just wishes, and life can only shine if we light ourselves up. Members of the expedition team, I admire your courage, you have done a good job !"
With the approval of the survival instructors, all the staff cheered up again, and after a five-minute rest, they went on the road again.
The circling four-wheel high-definition remote control camera flew into the air, and a long line of more than 30 people was struggling forward in the Himalayas. Hundreds of years ago, this place brought considerable wealth to the caravans of the merchants. Now, there are still a group of brave people People stubbornly pursue the ancient route, experience the ancient tea-horse road in their hearts, challenge themselves, and seek their dreams.
...
Physical strength is the most important thing in mountaineering. Girls are particularly disadvantaged in this aspect, which also caused the speed of the whole team to be greatly reduced. Fortunately, everyone was very united, encouraged and supported each other, and supported them to the last stage.
According to the introduction of the natives, this section of the road is the most difficult. It is only about 1 kilometer away, but the slope of the steepest section is 40 degrees, and the altitude difference is 350 meters. As long as you climb to the top of the mountain, you can see the destination— —Foxando Lake.
"Take a break...the pace is too fast..." Yang An, the leader, couldn't take it anymore. Wang Shi watched beside him and reminded: "Don't go, rest for ten minutes, and work hard for the last 1 kilometer!"
The transmission was transmitted on the walkie-talkie, and everyone sat on the side of the road to rest, letting the donkeys and pack horses with their luggage go up the mountain first.
ding ding ding...
When the melodious cavalry bell rang, everyone panted, looking at the spectacular scenery and listening to the bell, feeling quite emotional.
"It's so beautiful!" Liu Yuxi looked at the mountains and felt emotional.
"This is a miracle of nature!" Zhang Junning gasped.
"Where's my selfie stick... it's useless... I don't have the energy to carry my luggage..." Guan Xiaotong never forgets to take selfies, but it's a pity that he has no strength.
"This scene reminds me of the caravans hundreds of years ago. The sound of the bell is really beautiful."
Yang An sighed, he was sitting at a very good angle, Wang Zijun was carrying the camera, standing on his side, in the lens was a profile of Yang An, the background in the distance was majestic and steep mountains, half of them were snow peaks, the right side of the lens It is a line of donkeys and horses, climbing easily.
Sha Bei rolled her eyes: "Men are miserable, even worse than a donkey..."
Everyone laughed, this guy was really here to make a joke, even the staff laughed.
A pack horse with a bell on it passed by, and Yang An couldn't help but hum along: "
Climbing the peak to look at the hometown, the yellow sand is thousands of miles long,
Where does the camel bell sound, the sound knocks on the heart,
Looking forward to stepping on the road of missing, flying across the thousand miles of mountains,
Where are the geese in the sky and the clouds in the sky?
..."
Everyone was listening to Yang An's singing quietly, but when he sang, he sighed and was still panting. All he could say was that singing in the plateau area was also a physical effort.
"Keep singing, Brother Yang~"
"This song is really nice!"
"What about the chorus?"
Everyone looked at him, and even Wang Shi praised him: "Yang An, your song is very nice, and I like it very much. Can you hold on and finish singing it?"
Yang An raised his arm: "Let me breathe..."
After a short rest, the cavalry had passed the crowd and went to the front, the bells were jingling, and they were getting further and further away.
Yang An took a deep breath and sang: "
...
The wind and sand can't be wiped away, the bloodstains of history,
The wind and sand can't fly away, the paleness, the begonia's blood and tears.
The yellow sand blows the old years, but it can't blow my thoughts old,
How many nights have I dreamed back to Qinguan
..." (to be continued.)
