Leave Mazar and walk along the Yarkant River.
All the way through the mountains and mountains, the road conditions are very good, and some gravel roads will be encountered from time to time, so Chen Mu has to slow down.
In the process, he had to get out of the car several times to deflate the tires in order to prevent a flat tire.
Being on a plateau, everything will swell, the tires will swell, and even his face will become swollen, so when walking on these gravel fields, the car will become very bumpy, so he can only deflate the tires and try to slow down. Line, to prevent sharp stones from poking tires.
Anyone who has played off-road driving knows that no matter how rich your experience is and how good your driving skills are, all of these must be achieved through the tires of the car. Once the tires are worn out, nothing can be done.
So protecting the tires is the most important thing.
Especially the side of the tire, try not to let it be scratched by sharp things.
After walking like this for a day, Chen Mu spent his first night camping in the wild.
He prepared a sleeping bag in the car, but it was still too cold.
The temperature dropped sharply at night, and there was even ice on the road at night.
Chen Mu shivered and hid in his sleeping bag. He didn't feel warm at all, so he could only use the warm stickers he prepared, and put a lot of them on his body without being stingy at all, and finally fell asleep.
But in the early morning of the next day, he still woke up from the cold.
When he woke up, the windows were all covered with frost. It felt like the whole car was frozen into a big freezer, and he was a popsicle in the freezer.
"It's so cold!"
Chen Mu scratched the frost on the car window, and glanced outside, the sky outside was already bright.
Because it was too dark yesterday, he didn't even take a look at it, but now he realized that the direction the car was facing was Khogry Peak.
In the early morning, while other peaks are still hiding in the night, the tall Chogri Peak has poked its head out in the sunlight.
The top of the peak, facing the first ray of sunlight, is scattered with white mist that I don't know whether it is cloud or snow, and it looks very beautiful from a distance.
Chen Mu looked at the position pointed by the thin line in his mind, and had an intuition that he was right above the thin line. It seemed that everything was correct, and the end point pointed by the thin line should be Khogry Peak.
"Although the difficulty has become greater, but... finally found it."
Chen Mu looked at Qiao Gerry Peak, and he didn't know whether to be happy or depressed.
Qiao Geli Peak, which is known as the dead man's peak by the international mountaineering community.
Although it is the second highest peak in the world, it is more difficult to climb than Mount Everest, because its terrain is more complicated than Mount Everest, and the climbing height is greater.
The base camp of Mt. Everest is about 5,200 meters, and you can reach the summit by climbing 3,000 meters.
However, the base camp on the north side of Mount Khogry is more than 3,900 meters, less than 4,000 meters, and the vertical difference from the summit is 4,700 meters, which is more than 1,500 meters more than Mount Everest.
According to what Lao Jin said before, before 1990, one out of every two people who climbed K2 would die on average.
After 1990, due to the improvement of all kinds of mountaineering equipment, the substantial improvement of human science and technology, and the accumulation of previous experience, the death rate of climbing K2 has finally dropped a lot, but it still reaches the level of 10000 people per five people. To the extent of one death.
Therefore, Qiao Geli Peak is really a veritable dead man's peak.
Chen Mu didn't think that a person like himself who had no experience in mountain climbing would be able to climb Khogry Peak.
Moreover, his current problem is not as simple as climbing to the top of the mountain. He has to find the "grave" on the mountain, which is more difficult.
Who knows where the tomb of that senior is, as usual, it must not be on the climbing route, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago.
You must know that those climbing routes are all developed by people, very mature and relatively easy to travel, even if such a route is so dangerous, if he walks alone, he will have to find something in such a snowy mountain , the danger in it can be imagined.
"It's really impossible to complete the task!"
Chen Mu felt that this matter had to be discussed in the long run.
Climbing out of the sleeping bag, putting on his clothes, he tried to start the car, wanting to go to the closest place to see K2 again, and almost returned.
When you have a chance next time, go directly to the base camp on the north side of Mount Khogry in Pakistan to see the situation. Maybe you will be able to feel the location of the "grave" directly when you get close to Mount Khogry, without having to search for it all over the snowy mountains. It's over.
"Da da da… "
I tried to light the fire a few times, but it didn't work, which made Chen Mu's heart sink.
Just kidding, breaking the car in such a place where birds don't shit, doesn't that mean you want him to die
He got out of the car quickly, found the rescue battery he had prepared, opened the hood, connected the car battery, and tried to ignite.
"Da da… "
After two clicks, the car suddenly ignited, and the engine started to rev up, which made Chen Mu heave a sigh of relief and secretly yelled "It's dangerous".
Fortunately, he was well prepared.
Those strategies and tutorials on the Internet are not completely useless, just like the current situation, someone said on the Internet that because it is too cold, the car may not ignite, so it is very necessary to prepare a rescue battery.
Therefore, whether it is useful or not, Chen Mu has already bought one.
However, within a few seconds of letting his heart go, he suddenly found that the whole car was shaking violently, and there seemed to be something wrong with the engine.
He jumped out of the car, walked to the front of the car and took a look, the engine was shaking wheezingly, as if he wanted to jump out.
Chen Mu didn't know what was going on, and when he was dumbfounded, he saw that the gas emitted from the rear of the car turned into black gas, and it was discharged outwards, as if it was about to burn.
Misty Grass…
What's the matter
Chen Mu was hesitating whether he should turn off the car and take a rest, the engine began to quiet down slowly.
The black exhaust behind it also disappeared and returned to its normal color.
False alarm!
Chen Mu let out a sigh of relief, feeling as helpless as a child weighing more than one hundred pounds.
He didn't know what kind of situation it was. He could only say that it was because of the cold that the car froze, and when it started suddenly, this happened.
But... whatever, it's freezing.
Chen Mu hurriedly got into the car and turned on the heater to dispel the chill from his body, only then did he feel much better.
While keeping warm, he took out the steamed buns, dipped them in bean paste and ate them slowly.
The steamed buns were a little loose, I don't know if they were broken, but this time did give him a little comforting power, making him stare at Qiao Gerry Peak fiercely and say, "Just wait!"
