Everest

Geng Aiqing groaned in front of Lin Sheng for quite a while, until Lin Sheng finally couldn't bear it and kicked him into the snowdrift beside him, then he laughed and ran to take Yong Ke's place to help meet him, but he hasn't come yet His teammate, Luosang, has already come over. His expression is not very good, and he keeps frowning. Geng Aiqing is now full of confidence, and quietly bumps into Yongke and whispers: "What's the matter? The guide is also scared?"

Yong Ke rolled his eyes at him: "He's walking steadily!"

"I walked very steadily." Geng Aiqing said happily, "It's not difficult at all!"

Yong Ke really wanted to kick him again.

Luosang couldn't understand what they were saying, so he squatted next to him after passing by, not knowing what he was thinking, looking around anxiously, muttering what he didn't know what to say, Geng Aiqing looked at him for a while, speechless Said: "What is he talking about?"

"I don't know." Yong Ke also glanced, "Xiao Shen will come over later and let him ask."

"Uh-huh!"

Geng Aiqing didn't take it seriously, but looked at the direction of the metal ladder seriously. Pei Lei had already stepped on the metal ladder, but because of the heavy wind and snow, his figure was a little blurry, but he was an old hand after all, he walked Soon, two-thirds of the position was gone, and then Shen Biwen also stepped on the metal ladder. Geng Aiqing was shocked, but judging from Pei Lei's expression, the two of them probably had an agreement Well, there is no problem with a metal ladder carrying the weight of two people, but there is no need to be so anxious, right?They took a little less time than expected!

Geng Aiqing soon realized something was wrong. Shen Biwen walked very fast, almost without stopping on the metal ladder's horizontal bar, which was too dangerous!He just wanted to remind that Pei Lei had already arrived here, but he turned around and shouted as soon as his front foot stepped over: "Quick!"

As if in response to his shout, there was a clear sound of collapse above the metal ladder.

Geng Aiqing was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly raised her head to look in the direction where the voice came from.

"What's going on?" Yong Ke's face changed, and he raised his head.

Pei Lei calmly ordered: "Just now, Luosang guessed that the avalanche above this place might be the place where the avalanche last night was. Now that the snow is falling so heavily, I don't know if it will happen again! You all go back, and I will follow Xiao Shen here!"

Geng Aiqing was stunned, why did the avalanche suddenly happen, he turned his head a little stiffly and glanced at Luosang, Luosang was so anxious that he turned around several times, pointing upwards and chattering non-stop, and raised his hands He folded his palms together and muttered something, probably praying.

"Geng Aiqing!" Pei Lei scolded in a low voice, "Back back, why are you in a daze!"

Geng Aiqing came back to his senses, he was still standing on the edge of the crack, maintaining the movement of reaching out, and the terrifying voice was directly above him!And it's getting closer!

"Let's go!" Pei Lei stared.

Geng Aiqing really wanted to go, he really wanted to go, but his legs couldn't move at all, Shen Biwen's speed was very fast, but who knew if the avalanche of snow would be faster?And if he stepped on the ground... a chill came up from Geng Aiqing's back, forcing him to shiver nervously.

"What's wrong with you!" Pei Lei noticed something was wrong with him, and said immediately, "Yong Ke, come here and drag him away!"

Yong Ke rushed forward immediately.

"No, no, I won't go." Geng Aiqing shivered and pushed Yong Ke away, pretending to be calm, "I am also here to respond, Uncle Pei can't hold Shen Biwen alone, if he falls... if there is any danger, I will Can help!"

Yong Ke glanced at him, as if agreeing with his words, so he backed away, leaving enough space for them.

"Okay!" Pei Lei didn't object, and said quickly: "The snow above can come down at any time. I told Xiao Shen just now that if he is too late, he will jump this way with all his strength. The two of us are responsible for catching him, and then Desperately dragging him back, we must be fast!" Pei Lei paused, "Because we don't know how big this is, if it's our entire area..."

Pei Lei didn't finish his sentence, but Geng Aiqing immediately understood what he meant. If it was a large-scale avalanche, they would all have to finish playing. They would either be buried in the snow or be washed down the cracks to death.

"I see!" Geng Aiqing nodded vigorously.

Shen Biwen was still walking this way, but his speed had obviously slowed down. Some snow was falling from above, and several pieces hit his feet, forcing him to stop and stop.

"Be careful...!" Geng Aiqing looked anxiously and couldn't help shouting.

Shen Biwen suddenly looked this way.

When Luosang raised his concerns over there, Pei Lei and Shen Biwen considered the worst possible outcome. Luosang passed first, and Pei Lei was second. If something was wrong, he immediately stepped on the metal ladder and walked this way. There was nothing unusual at first, and he almost thought that Luosang's worry was too much, but it was clear that the Sherpas' intuition was terrifying. When Pei Lei walked more than halfway, Shen Biwen suddenly heard a crisp sound. He didn't even know how he heard the "click" sound. It might be that the wind amplified the sound, or it might be that his five senses were too sensitive when he was nervous. In short, the moment he heard the sound, Shen Biwen felt like Suddenly it was wound up, and he resolutely stepped on the metal ladder.

He insisted on the last one, hoping that if there was no time to rescue him, at least Pei Lei's life could be saved.

But he never expected that not only Pei Lei wasn't walking there waiting for him, but Geng Aiqing was also standing there.

……

Geng Aiqing didn't know how he felt anymore. He found that his fear had not disappeared, but existed in a different way. For example, at this moment, it became a specific person. Every movement, every step, Geng Aiqing felt his heart trembling with fear, if...if...

"One more thing!" Pei Lei whispered, "Hold on!"

Probably prayer finally had an effect. When Shen Biwen arrived, the expected avalanche did not fall. Geng Aiqing didn't know what to say. He looked at Shen Biwen and grasped his outstretched hand, feeling the pain in his heart. Little by little, the fearful monsters were locked into the cage. At this moment, Shen Biwen's eyes changed, and before Geng Aiqing could react, Shen Biwen threw herself under her body. At the last moment, I only saw Shen Biwen's gentle eyes, and then there was a dull pain all over my body.

It took 10 minutes for them to climb out of the snowdrift. Geng Aiqing sat on the snow exhausted and almost took a bath with sweat. Shen Biwen sat beside him, also in a mess.

"Okay! Another life was saved!" Pei Lei said with a sullen smile.

Geng Aiqing stood up and still felt a little numb on his body, but it didn't affect his activities. Looking around, he found that the amount of snow in this avalanche was really not big, or more of the snow fell into the cracks and hit them There are only a small part of them, so they can break free so quickly, and they really have saved their lives.

"What the hell..." Lin Sheng hissed, "I almost pissed myself out of fear!"

"I'm afraid you are scared to pee!" Geng Aiqing's mood improved a lot after escaping the catastrophe.

"Go on." Yong Ke said, the shock on her face has not completely faded, "The wind and snow are even bigger."

Everyone didn't dare to stay here anymore, and immediately set off to continue upward.

After walking up a few hundred meters, they saw the culprit of the avalanche just now. A huge cross-section of a snow block was still there, shining white under the sunlight. No one dared to approach it anymore. A few photos, and everyone walked around there.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, all members of the team officially arrived at the North Col camp.
