Section 1122 Hard

The initial impression was that he was like a boy under 20 years old, the youngest of all, but wearing a fat top and military green pants. He was also the boy who would use his body temperature to sleep on the night two days later. One of the four porters, Yunluo had only a pair of particularly large yellow boots!

The guide of Kilimanjaro has two fundamental differences between them and others: 1. The guide is both very good in English and needs to pass a special English test. Only those who pass the score can become guides. 2. Each guide will have at least one experience of reaching the top and meeting these two conditions before he can become a real guide and get a guide certificate.

During afternoon tea time, the waiter has set up the table in advance every day. Except for Frank, everyone else will arrive at the camp ahead of Yunluo, set up 4 tents - Yunluo's sleeping tents, dining tents, kitchen tents, and frank tents, and then the porter will go to the nearby to get water.

The cooker prepares afternoon tea for Yunluo, and the waiter sets up a sleeping bag for Yunluo and enjoys the warm afternoon tea when they start cooking their own lunch.

On the first day, Yunluo did not realize that their hard work was just a brief understanding of their division of labor from Frank, and the daily schedule of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo.

The first day of climbing was a very painful day for Yunluo. The fatigue of his body was not considered touching. What collapsed was that he was sweating all over and his hair was soaked, but he couldn't take a bath! In addition, the air on the mountain was so humid, and his clothes were sticky to his body. It was wet and cool. At that time, Yunluo hoped to rise to a high altitude quickly!

Maybe if the temperature is low, Yunluo will not sweat too much! But Yunluo never expected that there would be more painful things waiting for Yunluo in the low temperature. In this way, while he was extremely tired of taking a bath, Yunluo fell asleep quickly with extreme fatigue from adapting to the environment.

I woke up by the cold at 2 o'clock in the evening. Although I was wearing 4 pairs of fleece pants, my hands and feet were still cold and I couldn't sleep no matter what. I kept lying until 5 o'clock in the morning. Finally, I heard someone walking outside. Yun Luo didn't have to lie down anymore! In fact, lying down with a cold body trembling was particularly painful. It seemed that only the breath exhaled from my nostrils was warm and lasted for a while.

It was finally dawn and quickly climbed out of the tent, ran to the kitchen tent, and got in! The four dormitors were already inside, surrounding a small gas tank, and a basin of hot water was boiled on the gas tank. It was water for Yunluo to wash his face, brush his teeth, and drink it. Yunluo's frozen nails were already purple, and his hands were a little stiff.

I really don’t want to touch the water. Even if it’s hot water, it will get biting cold when the mountain wind blows. Yun Luo decided at that time not to wash his face in the next few days! Yun Luo only brushes his teeth!

At 7:30 in the morning, waiter prepared Yunluo's breakfast. A plate of mangoes and bananas, a small pot of sticky boiled cereals, two slices of bread and egg pancakes fried in butter, as well as hot milk and hot chocolate. Yunluo has never been picky about food and eats it all, but Yunluo doesn't eat it, so he is really not used to it.

The hot chocolate is very thick, so I pour the whole box of chocolate powder in it! It consumes a lot of mountaineering and always feels hungry. Yunluo needs high-calorie things!

At 8 o'clock, Yunluo and Frank set out first. The husbands packed their equipment and set off later than Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo. This tour guide is so handsome. He looks straight and energetic. No matter how you look at it, you can be better than Frank.

Yunluo insisted on keeping her camera away. She wanted to record precious fragments of time. With the first day of experience, Yunluo only puts the most necessary things in her backpack: water, lunch, sunglasses, and sunscreen.

Kilimanjaro Swahili means "a brilliant and shiny mountain". It is located about 160 kilometers south of the Great Rift Valley of East Africa. It is the highest peak in Africa and a volcanic hill. It is mainly composed of three extinct volcanoes, Kibo, Mawensi and Hira, and is the highest point in Africa. It is known as the "roof of Africa".

This equatorial snow peak is covered with ice and snow all year round, and the mountain is surrounded by jungles and species are abundant. This time, I had an idea to climb the mountain, and I wanted to use my camera to record different plants at different altitudes on the mountain.

At an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, the plant species begin to change.

Halfway up the mountain, looking back, the second highest peak in Africa, Mount Kenya, surrounded by clouds and mist.

American mountaineering, he has a complete equipment, and the one on his chest is an oxygen-absorbing device. There are so many Americans here, and there are even a mountaineering team of about 15 people. Everyone has such equipment. There are not many people like Yunluo who come to climb mountaineering in Asia in history. It is precisely this reason.

This group of climbers who chose the machine route all know that there was a Chinese country called snow climbing to the top of Africa alone. However, they didn’t know that Yun Luo had not made an appointment with his companion to come alone, haha.

Yunluo also used the second peak in Africa as a background photo as a souvenir! At this time, Yunluo didn't know that Yunluo had been severely sunburned, so he looked at Yunluo's face.

Tony from the United States loves outdoor sports. Like Yunluo, he does not need oxygen or hiking poles. He always arrives at the camp the fastest every day, almost catching up with Kilimanjaro’s professional porter! He jumps forward like a monkey! He is the strongest climber Yunluo meets.

Yunluo is very proud! Yunluo does not inhale oxygen, does not need a hiking pole, and climbs completely with bare hands! But together with these big men behind him, they challenge their will, physical fitness, and courage, Yunluo never likes the saying of "conquering a certain mountain"! Naturally, they will never be conquered by some creature, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo are just in a natural environment of evil.

Move forward bravely, challenge your own physical limits, and overcome your fragile will, rather than conquering nature, it is appropriate to conquer Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo themselves.

This one looks quite like a pineapple! Many photos of climbing Kilimanjaro have this plant. They are high and the clouds and mists are floating in the mountains. At this time, the temperature is about 10 degrees. Every time the altitude rises by 1,000 meters, the temperature will drop by 6 degrees. The mountain climbing is very exhausted, and I feel sweaty when I stop, the mountain wind blows coldly, and I have a cold war. It’s time for lunch.

Look at the big cucumbers in Tanzania! There are also small carrots! It is much better than the ripening ones that Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo eat. The seeds of the cucumber are very mature and a little sweet. The carrots are very small, crisp and sweet.

Give it voraciously. In this place, only by sleeping in the wild and sleeping in the open, relying on your own hands and feet to get closer to the target, Yunluo, which belongs to nature, must learn to be strong! The strange African eggs, the egg yolks are white.

Along the way, I occasionally meet people on the same road, and probably think that Yunluo is alone. These kind people will sincerely invite Yunluo to have dinner or walk with her. Seeing that the two behind Yunluo are also Americans, the bearded man is quite stylish! He invited Yunluo to have dinner for two consecutive days, but they were rejected by Frank in person.

Yunluo was very angry, but Yunluo was unwilling to have a relationship with Frank too rigid. After all, he still had to travel with him every day. This is a trip alone. Yunluo must learn to be patient and not lose his temper at willfulness.

At 3 pm, the cooker was cooking the dowry's lunch. Every day when he arrived at the camp, Yunluo always liked to squeeze into their tents because it was very warm. A few people squeezed together and lit a gas stove to drive away the cold.

Yunluo watched the Tanzanian man cook and learn their skills! Throw some butter on the bottom of the pot, wait until the butter is heated and melted, throw it in the chopped onion and tomato, then take out a piece of beef leg, cut the meat into a bowl and put it aside, peel the bones and tendons into the pot, and turn it over the bottom of the pot.

Pour a pot of water in, and finally pour a lot of raw rice in it. It was cooked with a gulp~~~Yun Luo was so greedy, but he didn't give it to Yun Luo. He said that Yun Luo could not chew the beef tendon, and the beef in the bowl was Yun Luo's dinner.

In fact, for people in the city, such food is really nothing. Some people may still feel dirty and nauseous. However, in such an environment, Yunluo's instinct can only survive. Yunluo witnessed the road every day, steep muddy, and rocks everywhere. In many places, Yunluo needs to use his hands to climb.

And they, these Kilimanjaro's porters, actually rely on their legs and feet! What they carry is a tent! It is all the food and drinks for 8 people for 6 days! It is a gas stove! Everything here is soaked with the bitter sweat of Kilimanjaro's porters! What reason does Yunluo have to make himself spoiled? What reason does he dislike?

A simple brushing dish is made by carrying water, which is very precious. Basically, it is just to brush it with water and then wipe it dry with a cloth. Yunluo does not think it is dirty. In such a cold place and cold water, his hands must be very cold.

Thick clouds blocked the last ray of sunset, and another cold night in Kilimanjaro came.

At 3 o'clock in the evening, Yunluo was tortured by the bone-permeable cold again and couldn't sleep. He curled up in a ball in his sleeping bag, clenched his fists, trying not to spread the only little body temperature.

However, his body was as cold as a stone, and Yunluo could not feel that he was alive! Yunluo even tried to hide his nose like a dog. Yunluo felt that he was really frozen at that time, Yunluo really wanted to go home! Really! Yunluo was most afraid of the cold, but he didn't expect to just escape from winter.

He ran to the snow-capped mountains in Africa again to suffer! Yun Luo had some stubbornness that Yun Luo was wrong! Yun Luo wanted to take a bath! Yun Luo wanted a heated house! Yun Luo wanted a soft bed! It was so strange that Yun Luo's face and neck were so painful that it was like tens of thousands of tiny needles piercing! Oh my God! Terrible sunburn! 5 o'clock.

Yun Luo could no longer lie down, and was dizzy. He climbed out of the tent, took the camera and walked away. The sun slowly rose. Looking around! The pink glow rendered the entire sky! This is the sunrise on the top of Africa!

The sky on the other side is an attractive pink! The Kenya Mountains, the second highest peak in Africa, is now completely shrouded in the misty glow. As the sun rises, the color of the sky turns blue, and the pink glow gradually fades, turning into orange-red, and still shrouds the African land.

At 7 o'clock, the sky was blue! Today's itinerary was to climb from 3,800 meters above sea level, rise to 4,600 meters above sea level, and then go back to 3,900 meters to camp. This arrangement is to allow climbers to adapt to the altitude reversal. From today on, someone should have altitude reversal. Fortunately, Yunluo has no symptoms for the time being.

But Yunluo can no longer stay out of bed at night, so he has to think of a way! Only when the mental state is good can he not be rebellious. He is tired, sleepy and freezing these two days, so it will definitely not work if he continues like this.

The road on the mountain is becoming more and more difficult to walk. After a period of smoothness, it is a period of steep climb.

There was a long journey without taking photos, because the rain had been falling clearly. What's even more tragic is that in order to reduce the load, Yun Luo did not bring a raincoat! When he climbed for nearly 3 hours, his feet slipped and fell on the rocks. He was so embarrassed.

The hair was messy on the forehead, and the rain was blurred through the eyelashes. At that moment, Yun Luo's pants were covered with mud, and his hair was soaked again, but this time it was not sweat, but rain

"When you are in a sea of ​​swords and fires, just move forward." - Windigton Churchill

In order to rush forward, you must move forward! Frank's raincoat is his own. Yun Luo's miserable appearance is caused by Yun Luo's own fault. He must bear to climb among the piles of rocks with deep feet and shallow feet. As the altitude rises, Yun Luo begins to pant, walk anxiously, and even has to open his mouth to breathe.

Like a fish leaving the water, struggling to get more oxygen. After being rejected by Yunluo on the first day, frank basically no longer gave Yunluo any help. He walked far ahead of Yunluo and chatted with other guides. Yunluo gritted his teeth and insisted, desperately letting himself follow him, constantly telling himself that Yunluo is strong and Yunluo makes him tenacious like the small weeds of Kilimanjaro!

How big the rain will eventually pass! The sky will still appear blue.

The rain is clear, and under the sun, the equatorial snow peak reflects dazzling silver light, sometimes clouds and mists. The crystal snow peaks, like shy girls, shining with bright eyes, clouds fall, and have to sigh at the magic of this land! On the equator of the hot earth, there is such a volcano with snow all year round.

Very hungry and cold, I can't move my feet and hold the chicken legs. In the bitter cold wind at an altitude of 4,600 meters, sitting on the cold stones, the clouds fall only the most primitive desire of living things. At the equator of the earth, the cold wind, the cold drinks, the cold stones

It seems that some of the husbands were also wet in the rain. When they arrived at the camp, they dried Yunluo and even took pictures of this. Yunluo felt bored again.

I found Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's camp, quickly squeezed into the tent of the porter, sat around them, roasted on fire, spread my hair, and began to feel warm on my body.

At 5 o'clock, it was dark, and the day was overdrawn. Yun Luo was wet with rain. The cold, tired, and sleepy, Yun Luo really wanted to find a warm place to fall asleep! r1152
