Nomenclature of Night

  Chapter 721 Qingchen, I'm cold

  Countdown 64:00:00.

  Eight o'clock in the morning.

   "Dong dong dong," Qing Chen knocked on the door of Yangyang's room: "Are you sober, you can already see the port of Mumbai on the boat, we are going to pack up and get off the boat."

   With a squeak, the door opened. Yangyang had just finished taking a shower, put on her sportswear, and was brushing her hair.

Yangyang asked with a smile: "What kind of hairstyle do you want to see me wear today? You can choose a dignified updo, a neat twist braid, a youthful and cute double ponytail... I can do it all! If I do it in a updo, I can wear it Wear black flat glasses to match your preference!"

   "You haven't stopped this early in the morning... It's better to have braids, and you can't tell when there will be a fight," Qing Chen said.

   "Fighting? Are you worried that being too high-profile last night will cause your whereabouts to be leaked?" Yangyang asked, "Next time, don't indulge me like this."

   "You don't have to worry about these things. I have already made arrangements for this trip to watch the world, and the choices I made are the most correct choices," Qing Chen said.

   "Okay," Yangyang dried her hair reassuringly. She felt that the biggest difference between herself and Qin Yiyi was that no matter what Qing Chen became, Qin Yiyi could accept it.

   And she herself knows Qing Chen too well, she understands the details of Qing Chen's behavior, way of thinking, life preferences, and integrates into Qing Chen's life.

  She knew that Qing Chen was willing to go crazy with her last night, and he was absolutely prepared.

  Yangyang smiled while blowing her hair: "Did you know that members of Spades go back to the fire pond almost every year?"

  Qing Chen's heart skipped a beat.

Yangyang continued: "After I traveled back, I met Qin Yiyi in the fire pond. She is now a goddess of the fire pond and has a high status. The elders can't do her a favor. By the way, I chatted with her for several days Woolen cloth."

  Qing Chen hesitated for a few seconds: "What did you talk about?"

   "Hey, hey," Yang Yang said with a smile, "Even if we're not together, don't mention other girls in front of me."

  Qing Chen was in a bad mood immediately: "It's obvious that you mentioned it first, so why are you still beating me up?"

  The eccentric Yangyang is indeed a bit overwhelming.

  At this moment, Yangyang finished braiding, picked up a revolver that had nothing to do with fate, pointed it at her temple without hesitation, and pulled the trigger.

  The machine bracket clicked, and there was a quiet gunshot.

  Yangyang shuddered all over: "This thing is too evil, is it my bad luck or something, when you shoot it, it will be a frozen decelerated bomb? Qingchen, I am cold."

  Qing Chen saw that Yangyang's movement speed had slowed down, he felt stiff when walking normally, and his expression was no longer as lively as before.

  He wondered: "Is the revolver so powerful? Doesn't it mean that if you shoot the enemy at a critical moment, the opponent will immediately lose his ability to move?"

"It's too strenuous to walk like this, and people will think I'm weird when they see it, Qingchen, you can carry me," Yangyang said, jumping on Qingchen's back: "Yesterday you carried me like this, I just washed After finishing your hair, does it smell good?"

  Qing Chen's body stiffened for a while, and the scent of shampoo lingered under his nostrils.

  At this time, the voices of other tourists came from outside: "Look, someone is setting off fireworks! How are these fireworks made? They can be so bright during the day."

  Yangyang: "..."

  Qing Chen: "...Come down by yourself."

   "Okay," Yang Yang jumped down quickly and continued to pack her luggage.

  Qing Chen said sadly: "It's obviously a firework bomb, why did you lie to me that it was a frozen bomb? Can we be more sincere?"

   "Hey hey," Yang Yanghun didn't care: "Let's go, I've packed it!"

  The Bright Pearl cruise ship docked in Mumbai, India. Qingchen and Yangyang disembarked together with thousands of mountaineers on board, carrying huge mountaineering bags.

  Qing Chen's hiking bag is extra large, and even contains his skis inside.

  They will depart from Mumbai and arrive in New Delhi, India, and fly to Nepal with tens of thousands of tourists from New Delhi.

Qing Chen asked with a smile: "Now there are two plans to choose, one is to take the Maharaja Express prepared by Luo Wanya to New Delhi, a total of 7 days and 6 nights, and the other is to take the green leather train and hang out with the three buddies On the train to New Delhi, it takes only one day, which one do you choose?"

"One is 7 days, the other is 1 day. According to your original plan, how long did it take to arrive in New Delhi," Yang Yang said, "Don't consider my feelings when it comes to business. It's important to do business. I'm your guardian. Put your business first!"

  Qing Chen said with a smile: "No matter which one I choose, I have a backup plan."

  In my impression, the trains in India are dilapidated and full of people.

But the Maharaja Express in India is different. It is a direct tourist line from Mumbai to New Delhi. There are 23 cars in the car. The car is full of top-level decoration and service. There are 84 passengers in the car, and the daily room fee is 2,500 US dollars. .

  Finally, at the speed of seven days and six nights, sailed to the destination.

  During the period, the train will stop at various tourist attractions for more than ten hours, so that tourists on board can go to the tourist attractions to have fun.

  It is like a row of five-star hotels walking.

  There are similar trains in China, such as the K3 train from Beijing to Moscow, and it is hard to find a ticket for 6,000 yuan.

  For example, the New Orient Express in Beijiang, some tickets are even as high as 50,000 yuan.

   This is the trip that Luo Wanya prepared for Qingchen, and he planned to let the boss relax before climbing Mount Everest.

  However, Yangyang smiled and said, "Since you're here, let's do as the Romans do, and we'll take the train too!"

   "Okay," Qing Chen responded with a smile.

   During this journey, he seemed to have forgotten what he was doing, and insisted on playing with Yangyang until he had fun.

  When the two were hanging on the train, the breeze was blowing, and the two shouted excitedly, just like two lunatics.

  The third brother, who was densely packed on the roof of the car, pointed at the two of them, as if looking at two bumpkins who had never seen the world.

   Later, taking advantage of the three buddies on the top of the train going up and down, the two of them even grabbed the front seat of the train.

  They sat side by side at the front of the car, and the green leather train slowly headed north at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour.

   "It would be nice if time stopped at this moment," Yangyang said softly.

  Qing Chen did not respond.

  Yangyang suddenly asked in the car: "Boss Zheng and Boss He are still on Whale Island. Besides me, do you have any other backers this time?"

  Qing Chen smiled in the wind and said, "Yes."

  …

  …

  In the Maharaja Express, all decorations are full of luxury.

  There are brown-red carpets on the floor, and elegant oil paintings on the walls.

  The 17th carriage, which originally belonged to Qingchen and Yangyang, seemed to be empty.

  When the train started to move, suddenly 4 people came out from the 13th carriage and the 19th carriage, and approached the 17th carriage from both sides.

  The four Asian men looked indifferent, and they had already silently held the suppressed firearms in their hands.

  They pretended to pass by normally, but when they arrived at the door of the 17th car, they suddenly fired a burst of fire inside, smashing the door of the car into a sieve!

   Until the gunfire stopped, no one opened the door to confirm whether the target was dead.

  However, the inside was empty, and there were no figures of Qingchen and Yangyang.

  The four of them looked at each other in blank dismay. They found the booking information based on their passport information. It stands to reason that Qingchen and Yangyang should be in the private room!

  One of them picked up the phone and dialed out, and said in Korean: "Boss, there is no one in the box, we need new information to track the target."

  Someone on the other side of the phone said: "Understood, evacuate at the next stop, and choose the fastest way to go to New Delhi to stand by."

   "Got it," the killer responded.

  He hung up the phone, winked at the remaining three companions, and quickly walked in another direction.

  However, the moment they passed the 16th box, the door of the box opened, and there seemed to be an irresistible force in the room pulling them, making them fall into the box without any resistance!

  The inside is like a black hole, sucking all the killers in, erasing all traces of their existence.

  The door of the 16th compartment was closed again, as if nothing had happened.

  …

  …

  New Delhi Gandhi International Airport.

  A Chinese man is constantly looking at his watch, beside him, there are 6 other Chinese people carrying hiking bags.

  The clothes on these people are all expensive outdoor brands such as 'Arc'teryx', 'Mountain Mouse' and 'Kala Stone', and they all look magnificent, either rich or expensive.

  Of course, the cost of climbing Mount Everest is not small, and the poor cannot climb it.

  First of all, equipment. Just talking about clothing, you need to prepare a 5,000-meter-altitude jacket, as well as a 8,000-meter-altitude professional down jacket and mountain boots that are cold-resistant to minus 40 degrees for climbing to the summit.

  Everything is worth a lot of money, and all of them add up to 80,000 yuan as a base.

  Secondly, Nepal now has requirements for those who climb Mount Everest, at least they must meet the '5678' principle: climb 5,000 meters, 6,000 meters, 7,000 meters altitude snow-capped mountains and obtain a certificate before they can climb to 8,000 meters altitude.

  Of course, you can bypass this standard, but you need to pay a higher fee to get the tour guide to help you get in touch. Qingchen and Yangyang paid an additional 350,000 yuan each to be eligible to join the group.

   Otherwise, they cannot climb Mount Everest.

   Just to reach this passing line, the purchase of equipment, travel expenses, and tour guide fees will cost about 220,000 yuan.

   Again, if you want to obtain an official Nepalese climbing permit, the price is 11,000 US dollars in spring, 5,500 US dollars in autumn, and 2,750 US dollars in other seasons.

  Finally, joining a reliable expedition company basically charges 350,000 RMB per person, including the cost of a Sherpa guide.

  The sum of all these expenses is definitely not something that ordinary people can afford.

  So the people who can appear here are all prominent figures in various parts of the country, at least willing to spend a million yuan to climb a mountain.

  Of course, there are also tour groups that only go to the 5,400-meter Mount Everest Base Camp for a few days. This kind of tour is relatively cheap, and the cost is about 150,000 RMB.

  Qing Chen originally wanted to find an independent tour guide, so that even if there was any danger, it would not implicate ordinary people like the time when the crew went north for filming.

   But he later discovered something and switched to another strategy.

  Gandhi International Airport.

"Xiao Zhang, I heard that those two young people who haven't arrived have never even gone up to an altitude of 5,000 meters before?" A middle-aged man asked the tour guide: "You really dare to charge any money?" Ah, aren't you afraid that they will have some problems on Mount Everest?"

The young man named Xiao Zhang showed embarrassment: "Mr. Liu, they gave too much... Each person has an extra 350,000. In fact, if you change to a slightly more amateur team, you don't need to give so much. But you also know , I am currently the most professional climber on the southern **** in China, and they probably want to find the most reliable person."

   "Huh?" The middle-aged man called Mr. Liu was taken aback for a moment: "How old are they?"

"I heard that the couple are both 17 years old," explained the tour guide Xiao Zhang: "They must be physically fit, and they also promised that if they fail to pass the training at an altitude of 5,400 meters, they will not go up. .”

   "Where did you get so much money at the age of 17? I haven't worked yet, so where can I get more than one million yuan?" President Liu's wife was a little curious: "Which family's rich second generation?"

  Xiao Zhang shook his head: "I don't know, their identities are kept secret."

  Mr. Liu's wife said: "It's such a waste at such a young age."

However, Mr. Liu suddenly said angrily: "I think they are much better than your son. They spent more than one million yuan to climb Mount Everest. Your son spent more than ten million yuan to buy a sports car and go to school every day to show off. Is he better than your son?"

Mr. Liu's wife's complexion immediately changed: "Is my son not your son? Why don't you let him spend so much money? You should let him be a scumbag when he is in school. When he sees more girls, graduate In the future, I won’t be deceived by people using routines.”

  Mr. Liu turned his head away and said nothing, as if he was too lazy to argue.

  For the husband and wife, Liu always wanted to climb to the summit, but his wife only accompanied him to the base camp at 5,400 meters, where he was waiting for Mr. Liu to come down.

   There are four other people in the team, three men and one woman, who don't know each other, and come from all over the country.

  When everyone was introducing themselves to each other, someone next to them smiled and said, "Sorry, I got stuck, I didn't expect you to arrive early, you should wait for us for a while, sorry, sorry."

   Everyone turned their heads to look, and suddenly saw Yangyang and Qingchen carrying huge hiking bags. Both of them covered their faces with windproof face towels, so they couldn't see the specific appearance clearly.

  Liu is always a mountaineering enthusiast. The jackets Qingchen and Yangyang wear are basically in the early 10,000s. Compared with the extra money they paid, this price is nothing.

   It's just that Mr. Liu is a little curious, why did these two young people wrap themselves up so tightly?

Xiao Zhang on the side looked at Qing Chen: "You...what's in your hiking bag? This is the largest capacity hiking bag, but it is used below 3000 meters above sea level. There is no lack of oxygen there. You should carry more weight. It doesn't matter, but we are going to Mount Everest, and it will take 8 days to hike to the base camp, and the altitude will climb all the way, you will not be able to bear it."

  Ordinary people will start to suffer from hypoxia at an altitude of 4,000 meters, and they can produce high reactions by jumping around casually.

   And Qingchen, a person who has never been to an altitude of 5,000 meters, is immediately defined as an amateur in the eyes of everyone with such a huge mountaineering bag on his back.

   It's not to blame for everyone's misjudgment, but Qingchen himself would think it was a bit outrageous.

   But the problem is, he can’t show the snowboard, right? When the tour guide asks, how should he explain it?

   Just say you want to go skiing at an altitude of 8848 meters?

   Then it’s better to be regarded as a layman by everyone.

Mr. Liu looked at Qingchen and Yangyang and said: "It's good for two young people to be ambitious. It's better than being a prodigal at home, at least better than my kid. But to reach the summit of Mount Everest, it really depends on one's ability. Because, I prepared for the day of the summit for two years, climbing 6,000 meters above sea level a dozen times, you inexperienced mountaineering enthusiasts, really don’t try to be brave.”

  Mr. Liu's wife rolled her eyes aside.

  Besides, a young companion also persuaded: "In an oxygen-deficient environment, the brain will stagnate. It is too dangerous for you to do this. What are you carrying here?"

  Qing Chen said: "Canned food, small stove, freeze-dried vegetables, etc. I heard that the food is not good when I live there for a month, and I can't transport everything, so I brought some by myself..."

   "You're not here to enjoy life," Mr. Liu shook his head helplessly: "Young people have to be able to endure hardships. How can you bring so many things with you when climbing Mount Everest..."

Qing Chen explained with a smile: "I think I should be able to carry it. Don't worry, I have very good physical fitness... If I really can't carry it, I will lose some things. Also, if we really can't make it, we will be in Zhuhai. The peak base camp will not be brave when you come back."

  Yangyang also smiled and helped: "Yes, he has good physical strength."

  Qing Chen: "..."

  He always felt that Yangyang was driving again, but he had no proof.

   Tour guide Xiao Zhang sighed. He only hoped that these two rich second generations could retreat in spite of difficulties when they arrived at the base camp of Mount Everest.

He looked at everyone: "Okay, we are now checking in and passing the security check. Everyone must pay attention to recharge your batteries. When you arrive in Kathmandu, there will be a long test waiting for you. According to the plan, we will be at 5400 After 7 days of glacier training, we will first adapt to the altitude of 7200 meters at point C3, and return to the base camp after 5 days to prepare for the final sprint. We expect to complete the summit on May 2. Go down the mountain before the black storm arrives! Let's go!"

  Airplanes take off and land.

   After a short rest in Kathmandu, the group set off immediately, and it is expected to arrive at the Everest Base Camp in 8 days on foot.

  The first day of hiking.

  Guide Xiao Zhang paid attention to Qing Chen's physical fitness on the road, but Qing Chen kept saying that his physical fitness was very good, but he became tired on the first day.

  During the march, he was always at the back of the team and walked slowly.

   This is not a look of good physical fitness at all!

   Going forward, the altitude will be higher and higher, and the load on the body will be heavier and heavier!

  He persuaded: "Really don't insist on it anymore. If you suffer from alpine pulmonary edema in this high-altitude area, no amount of money may be able to save your life."

   Facing the persuasion, Qing Chen only responded slowly: "It's okay, I can still persist."

  Guide Zhang: "..."

   On the second day, Qingchen walked even more strenuously, and even began to show signs of shaking.

  Yangyang took some things out of his bag and put them in his hiking bag.

  Qing Chen asked in a low voice, "Am I pretending to be like this?"

   "Like, I won't watch the next Oscar without you."

  …

  5,000-word chapter, there is another chapter before 11:00 p.m.
