Everest

It was more than twelve o'clock when we arrived in Lhasa, half an hour later, but this half-hour delay is not important to everyone who is about to see the beautiful scenery of the plateau.Apart from dizziness, Geng Aiqing had no other symptoms, which made everyone feel relieved.

The weather in Lhasa is fine, and there are white clouds floating in the blue sky, like cotton candy. Geng Aiqing used to think that the blue sky and white clouds in Beijing are very beautiful when the sky is clear, but it was only when he came here that he realized that it was not at all. It's not an order of magnitude, and there is no way to compare it.

"The scenery is not bad, isn't it?" Lin Sheng was carrying a hiking bag and holding a camera in his hand, talking to Geng Aiqing while taking pictures.

"It's really good." Geng Aiqing sighed, "Oh! No wonder so many people said that they would come to Tibet to receive some kind of spiritual baptism. It really feels like that!"

"Pull it down! It's all marketing!" Lin Sheng laughed, "If we talk about baptism, it won't be baptism until we climb Mount Everest!"

"Hahaha, you're right! Let's try to have a good baptism on Mount Everest!" Pei Lei followed up, laughed and patted Lin Sheng on the shoulder.

Looking at the people with smiles on their faces, Geng Aiqing felt that the last bit of tension in her heart had disappeared, leaving only confidence and courage.

They did not stay in Lhasa for too long, but directly chartered a car to Yangbajing Mountaineering Training Base, which is less than 100 kilometers away from Lhasa. This is an official mountaineering training base, and they basically come here before climbing Mount Everest. It takes about a week to carry out simple adaptive activities, but they discussed it in advance. If no one has any strong reactions, they will leave for the Everest Base Camp after about four days.

The Yangbajing training base is located on a plateau at an altitude of 4300 kilometers. The area is very flat. You can directly see the majestic mountains from the training base. The scenery is really good, but Geng Aiqing feels that the [-]% uncomfortable.

"No internet?" Geng Aiqing raised his voice, "Are you kidding? In what year is there no internet?"

The training base received them with a fat middle-aged man named Li Yongshan. He has been in this training base for more than ten years and has received more than [-] climbers trying to conquer Mount Everest. This is the first time. Come across this.

"Sorry, there is no internet here." Li Yongshan explained, "If you stay here longer, you will find that the internet is almost useless here."

"It's useless! It can't be without it!" Geng Aiqing still couldn't believe it, "There is no signal at all?"

"There is no signal at all." Pei Lei took over the conversation, "This has always been like this here, so don't complain too much, and we won't stay too long."

"But..." Geng Aiqing wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Sheng.

Lin Sheng winked at Geng Aiqing, and then Geng Aiqing stopped talking, and the boss carried his own things to find his own house unhappily.

The lack of internet was a fatal blow. Geng Aiqing searched the sky and the earth for a long time with his mobile phone, but he couldn't find any network signal, and couldn't even connect to the 2G network. He was so angry that he almost smashed his mobile phone.

"The higher you go, the worse the signal." Shen Biwen came out of the room just in time to see Geng Aiqing angry at the phone, and came over, "Your phone won't work when you reach the Everest base camp."

"what?"

"Climbing, we use satellite phones to communicate with each other." Shen Biwen said lightly, "Get used to it early."

"I really want to fuck." Geng Aiqing couldn't help complaining, "Is it so poor here?"

"It's not poor." Shen Biwen breathed out, "Forget it, how is your health?"

"How about what?" Geng Aiqing froze for a moment, "Gao Fan?"

"Ah."

"I don't feel anything anymore." Geng Aiqing shrugged, "I'm not in good health, okay! How could I be tossed by a mere high counter!"

"It's fine." But Shen Biwen didn't seem relieved at all, but looked more worried?

"Aren't you satisfied that I didn't retaliate?" Geng Aiqing saw that something was wrong, and asked directly as soon as his brain froze, even in a bad tone.

"No."

"Your expression doesn't look like you don't have it at all?" Geng Aiqing stared at his face for a while, and suddenly said in surprise, "Fuck, you don't want to take me up the mountain, do you?"

Shen Biwen didn't refute, but just looked at him lightly.

"I mean, you are really poisonous, right? I've followed you here!" Geng Aiqing asked in shock. He never thought that Shen Biwen would have such a plan at this time. This is too fucking ridiculous, right? ?He has come all the way, except for a little altitude sickness, he thinks he is doing pretty well, right?

"I'm a bit rebellious and you think it's dangerous to take me with you?" Geng Aiqing guessed, "Or it's because I complained that there is no internet???"

Shen Biwen didn't really want to explain, and he didn't know why. He didn't want to have too much involvement with Geng Aiqing. He really didn't want him to go up the mountain. This was not only for his safety, but also to ensure the success of the entire team. The possibility of reaching the summit, and among them, Geng Aiqing is indeed that uncertainty.

"No." Shen Biwen finally chose to deny it, "Don't think too much, if you have nothing to do, you've been tired all day today, go to rest early."

After finishing speaking, he ignored him and went back to his room directly.

The rooms here are relatively tight, basically two people share one room, Geng Aiqing and Lin Sheng are in the same room, Shen Biwen and Pei Lei are in the same room, and the only female, Yong Ke, is divided with the female players of other teams. got together.

When he returned to the room, he was still very angry. Lin Sheng was fiddling with his camera. Seeing Geng Aiqing's expression strangely, he said, "What's wrong? Are you still angry about the lack of internet? We didn't have internet when we climbed the mountain before. Just pretend we've already started!"

"No!" Geng Aiqing threw the phone on the bed, leaned over and sat next to Lin Sheng, "I feel that idiot Shen Biwen doesn't want to take me to climb the mountain at all!"

"Why do you still think so at this time?" Lin Sheng was a little bit dumbfounded, "He agreed with you to come here, so why not give you a board?"

Geng Aiqing didn't mean that, and Lin Sheng didn't answer this question, but it unexpectedly made Geng Aiqing think about it, yes, everyone else has come, can they still stop him from climbing the mountain?Mount Everest is close at hand, and he is not without legs!

Lin Sheng watched Geng Aiqing's expression change from angry to triumphant for a second, and said speechlessly: "But even though I said that, if you feel that you can't hold on, you must say it!"

"Can't hold on? What can't hold on?" Geng Aiqing turned over and rolled back to his bed, "It's not like I haven't climbed a mountain before!"

"..."

In addition to the lack of internet, the living conditions in the Yangpajing training base are actually quite good. For this reason, most mountaineering teams who want to climb Mount Everest choose this place as the first stop on their trip to Mount Everest.

Geng Aiqing just walked around the base, and saw several members of the mountaineering team. Everyone had the same goal, and there was no competition, so most of them were very enthusiastic. Geng Aiqing refused. Several men who invited him to drink together went back and saw Shen Biwen coming down from the dormitory with another man.

Geng Aiqing didn't want to talk to him when she saw Shen Biwen's shock the day before, but Shen Biwen acted like a normal person, whispering something to the man beside him for a while There was still a smile on his face.

Fuck, this little bastard can still laugh?

Geng Aiqing bumped into it with a cold face: "Yo? What a coincidence! Where are you going?"

Shen Biwen didn't speak, but the man beside him greeted him happily: "Go drink! Are you Shen's friend?"

"Just together." Geng Aiqing glanced at Shen Biwen.

"Then let's go drink together! Is this your first time in Tibet?"

"Ah."

"Then we need to be together!" The man enthusiastically leaned forward and took his arm, "The highland barley wine here is excellent, you must have never drunk it before! Let's go!"

Geng Aiqing didn't really want to drink, just wanted to refuse, suddenly saw Shen Biwen frowning slightly, it seemed that he didn't want to go with him, immediately lost his temper, and took the man's shoulder with one hand and laughed loudly: " Then I really have to taste it! Let’s go!! If you don’t get drunk today, you won’t return!”

What else did Shen Biwen want to say.

The man laughed and interrupted what he wanted to say: "Hahaha! Everyone who comes here is a friend!!"

Shen Biwen glanced at Geng Aiqing.

Geng Aiqing raised her eyebrows provocatively across the man in the middle.
