Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 425: Human courage?

　　 After the noise is over, everyone is ready to rest. This is a camp at an altitude of 5,900 meters. Since a large amount of supplies are carried by robot guides, the three of them actually don’t have much physical strength, and there is still a little strength to talk and laugh. laugh.

　　A full moon hung in the sky, looming under the cover of clouds and fog. Zhang Yuan breathed the cool and thin air from the top of the mountain, and suddenly realized that he was less and less recalling the world of Kunlun Mountain.

　　This cherry blossom world...how do I say it, it's pretty good—if I'm used to such a leisurely day. It is difficult for a person to completely change the entire era. There is no perfection in the world. Since you are here, you should spend your entire life.

　　 I don’t know for what reason, the average life span of humans here can only reach 110 years old, there is not much life extension technology, and there is no so-called hibernation technology.

　　 There is only one life in a person. How to spend it more meaningfully is a complicated philosophical question.

　　"Even how to define'meaning' is difficult to explain."

　　 Just so confused, Zhang Yuan fell asleep, breathing evenly.

　　 I woke up the next day and saw Wang Nana’s smiling face as soon as I opened my eyes. This girl, who is a few days younger than him, is always so energetic.

　　 "Good morning!" Wang Nana said hello.

　　 "Good morning!" Zhang Yuan responded.

　　 It’s Ma Mingtao, who seems to have not slept well. He is so disgraced that he is covering his head and inhaling oxygen. His chest fell together and he was almost out of breath.

　　 "Spicy chicken!" Wang Nana sneered.

　　 "Go! Wait a minute, don't let me carry you!" Ma Mingtao squinted his eyes, and with the help of a large amount of oxygen, he quickly eased his breath.

　　"If you go away, you will be Zhang Yuanbei! The one who can't climb the mountain is the pig!"

　　 "Then say it..."

　　Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes, enjoying the family mode of equality, "Speak less and save a little effort. I won't recite it by the time, and ask her to recite it!"

　　 He pointed to a robot girl with green eyes.

　　The entire process of climbing Mount Everest takes a total of 4 days.

　　 Camp 1 is the physical "material supply station" before heading to the Westcomb Ice Bucket and Camp 2, and then to Camp 3 and Camp 4.

　　In the past, the mountaineering team usually looked for Tibetan guides, and carried the supplies to Camp IV, which is 7950 meters above sea level, by carrying them on their shoulders together.

　　 But now I don’t need it anymore. The robot tour guide has some strength, carries a lot of oxygen and various warming equipment, which undoubtedly reduces the difficulty of climbing.

　　 The next Sikkum ice bucket is in the shape of "u", like a large valley, covered with ice, which is the boundary between Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Mount Nubutse.

　　 Mount Everest is located in the north, and going straight from here is Lhotse, and Nuptse Mountain is just south. Although the Xiqum Ice Bucket is flat, it is still perilous.

　　"First of all, it is difficult and high temperature. In this highland above 6000 meters above sea level, because the surrounding area is blocked by the "high walls" made of ice and snow, once the sunlight on the plateau reflects, the temperature can easily reach 37 degrees Celsius. The hypoxia response and the risk of exhaustion."

　　 "Do you know what the climbers in the past see most here?" This robot tour guide is a young and lively girl who can still talk at an altitude of 7000 meters.

　　 But Zhang Yuan felt that he was out of breath. At this height, the oxygen content is only one-third of the normal situation, which is definitely a huge test for the body and mind.

　　"What is it?" Ma Mingtao asked tremblingly, "I feel dying, I really want to go home."

　　"...It's a human corpse!" The tour guide explained to herself: "The climbers in the past had no strength, lacked oxygen, or encountered a sudden climate change, so they fell suddenly and died silently. And their companions did not have enough power to carry a corpse down the mountain, so they could only throw the corpse in the snow."

　　"These corpses have become ice sculptures and will not rot for tens of thousands of years. So that, with the accumulation of time, more and more corpses on Mount Everest have become a kind of ecological pollution."

　　 Zhang Yuan shuddered all over, feeling like listening to a horror story. He wiped the sweat on his face and looked around, but did not see the so-called corpse.

　　 The tour guide girl said again: "...In the past, almost every mountaineering team that climbed Mount Everest had Sherpas guides. They are a special ethnic group in the high-altitude mountains of the southern foot of the Himalayas. They have a natural ability to climb mountains. Many times, their job is to carry a corpse down..."

　　 "Of course, this is for money..."

　　The next thing is of course simple. With the progress of the times, Sherpas have also lived a prosperous life, and there is no need to work for money.

　　 related bodies were all cleaned up by robots. These poor explorers were buried for thousands of years and finally returned to their roots.

　　In the end, people even forgot the names of these explorers.

　　 "It's not worth losing your life because of mountaineering. Is it to prove the courage of mankind?" This question has been lingering in Zhang Yuan's mind.

　　Sometimes he can't breathe, he will feel regret like Ma Mingtao, this is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and want to escape this difficulty.

　　 There is a related small city at the foot of the mountain. The social public support system is similar, but the culture is very different.

　　Mountaineering, in this city, is a kind of belief of people.

　　 I also met several mountaineering teams along the way. When the two sides passed by, they greeted very kindly and even asked if they needed help.

　　 The robot tour guide in front gave Zhang Yuan and the three people a sense of security, otherwise it would be quite difficult to rely on them.

　　The official summit began in the middle of the night~IndoMTL.com~Starting from Camp 4, starting from the climbing of the cliffs on the southern **** of Mount Everest, after reaching the stairs at an altitude of 8384 meters, then turn to the west side of the peak. You can initiate the final climb to the southern **** of the roof of the world.

　　 Zhang Yuan feels that he is out of breath, and every few steps he has to stop and inhale oxygen, this kind of climbing has become a pain. All the mild symptoms of altitude sickness came up, such as vomiting, diarrhea, and dizziness. He felt that his eyes were staring at Venus, and he might faint at any time.

　　 If you really faint, you may directly kill your life.

　　This is also the most dangerous place, and there are many climbers who fall here.

　　 And Ma Mingtao and Wang Nana also have the same ugly and terrible faces. Wang Nana, who has always been lively, has not spoken a long time ago, but her complexion is ashen as possible, and she saves her energy as much as possible. Although the robot tour guide helped her a lot, she still couldn't support it.

　　 "I regret it inexplicably, people are really fragile and want to go home." Taking advantage of the last rest, Ma Mingtao sighed with emotion.

　　 "Yes, once you are in pain, you will regret it."

　　Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Then, you turn back and go down the mountain, and after you feel comfortable, you regret not going up the mountain. This regret may last for decades, or even a lifetime."

　　 "No, you are wrong." The guide girl said: "Knowing your limits is a wise choice. If everyone had the courage to go down the mountain, the number of deaths would not be so high. This one. The girl may have reached her limit, it is better to breathe in some oxygen first."
