Anyone who has ever trekked in the Himalayas knows that no matter how sunny the sun is in the morning, the mountains will be thick with clouds in the afternoon. At this time, Chogori Peak was being hit by an approaching blizzard.

Visibility is reduced, strong winds, snowstorms, wind speeds reach 12 meters per second, and the temperature drops rapidly. Du Xiaosheng, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was already marching slowly in the treacherous climb, and the sudden snowstorm was like making it even worse, and his steps were difficult.

At an altitude of more than 8,000 meters, the oxygen content in the air is only about two-fifths of that of the plains, so it has always been called a forbidden area for humans.

Everyone who climbs to a snow-capped mountain above 8,000 meters without oxygen will be recorded in the history of mankind.

The third-level perfect human physique is difficult to support here, and it can even be said that it is not enough to see at all.

Physiologically, without oxygen, it will be extremely difficult to breathe in camps above 7,000, it will be difficult to fall asleep at night, and the failure of the body above 8,000 meters will accelerate, which will affect the brain's consciousness and make wrong judgments.

At this time, his head was already hurting and about to explode, as if thousands of steel needles were pierced on Du Xiaosheng's head and penetrated his brain.

This is the pain that anaerobic climbers must experience, and the continuous high-intensity physical exertion, combined with the extreme cold weather, makes any little bit of oxygen precious.

There are more than 200 people who have reached the top of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen, but there are far fewer than 100 people who have reached the summit of Chogori without supplemental oxygen!

After thinking about the next road, Du Xiaosheng once again entered an ethereal meditative state.

The brain consumes 60 percent of the energy absorbed by the body, and any distractions will cause the body's oxygen consumption to rise dramatically.

In order to reach the top, Du Xiaosheng must have no distractions.

This is very difficult to do, and only a master who has practiced yoga for many years can bring the spirit into this state through meditation.

However, Du Xiaosheng did it, and at this time, in his eyes, the snow waves that were swept up by the storm were gone, and the whistling wind was far away.

There was silence in the ears, and there was only the route ahead.

He got rid of all desires and distractions.

In the eyes of 11 million viewers, Du Xiaosheng seems to have turned into a machine at this time, squatting, standing up, waving a pickaxe, and repeating the above actions.

The howling winds made it impossible to hear the ice axes hitting the ice.

Du Xiaosheng obviously looked like he might lose his breath at any time, but his speed had not been accelerated by the death storm that was oppressed behind him, let alone slowed down by the oxygen content that could not support him to continue moving forward and the broken third-level perfect human physique.

His movements are so resolute with every step, not with his strong body fighting, but with super strong will!

It is hard to believe that a person can burst out with such tenacious vitality in such a desperate situation.

Seeing Du Xiaosheng's purple-red cheeks, the eyes of many viewers were already full of tears.

Even some fans who are not strong-willed can't help but type: "Give up." Don't suffer such a sin! ”

"Lie down and rest well, and you can die more comfortably in the end."

"It's terrible, I used to just blindly think that climbing high-altitude snow-capped mountains is no different from ordinary mountaineering, but now, I know I'm wrong! It's a great sport. ”

"I am destined to be an ordinary person, I don't have the courage and perseverance of an anchor."

"Alas! The anchor's heart is too good, he shouldn't give the oxygen cylinder to the commercial mountaineering team, if he can take those two cans of oxygen for himself at this time. It's time to climb to the top of K2. ”

……

Climbing snow-capped mountains is an extreme sport that only the rich can afford.

Its circle is very niche, but at this moment, there are more and more people who pay attention to Du Xiaosheng's live broadcast, and they never knew that it was so difficult to climb Qiaogori Peak.

The Sherpas used their lives to pile up more than 300 mountaineers around the world to successfully reach the top of death in K2.

However, today, under the witness of tens of millions of people, Du Xiaosheng keeps climbing upward with his own strength.

A storm is coming, and the bad weather is like the footsteps of death.

This is Tianwei, no one can survive a violent storm on a snow-capped mountain at 8,000 meters.

It's so exciting, the audience has no doubt that if Du Xiaosheng has an oxygen cylinder available now, he will not hesitate!

After all, he also came up with an oxygen cylinder on his back.

At this time, Brother Wei, the first person to climb the Snow Mountain in Huaguo, who is known as the Chinese Xia Erba, posted on Weibo and reposted Du Xiaosheng's live video and said:

"Let me give you a science popularization, the huge difference between anaerobic mountaineering and aerobic climbing."

"The use of oxygen on Mount Everest has become routine. Most climbers use oxygen from an altitude of 7,000 meters when they climb Mount Everest. At altitudes above 8,000 meters, oxygen is used by almost everyone, even the toughest Sherpa guides. ”

"Of all the records of Everest ascent (about 3 percent) of all the ascent to the summit of Everest, only a very small percentage (about 3 percent) has been achieved without oxygen, but in that 3 percent, a whopping 22 percent of the fatalities – 111 people have died on Everest."

"Du Xiaosheng is the best physical fitness I have ever seen among the Chinese people. He is the pride of our country, and I hope he will come back alive and safe. If only I had met him earlier, we could have challenged all 14 8,000-meter snow-capped mountains together. Alas, it's a pity, I'm afraid I don't have this opportunity. Brother Wei said with great regret.

……

It is no wonder that experts and masters from all walks of life gave Du Xiaosheng an "ultimatum of death" one after another, and the pressure on oxygen-free mountaineering was much higher than that of aerobic mountaineers, but at this time, it encountered a storm of death.

His whole body was white at this point, and a large amount of flying snow stuck to his hat, head, clothes, and even his cheeks were covered with a layer of frost from the ha.

Not only the audience watched it again, but in the various snow mountain base camps, many base camps used extremely precious communication signals to broadcast Du Xiaosheng's live broadcast for everyone to see.

"Climbing to the top in the snowstorm, this anchor is afraid that he will die on it."

"There are still fifteen or sixteen meters, God forbid, Du Xiaosheng must not die at this time, it will be too cruel."

"At least let him fulfill his dream and then die."

"Will it succeed?"

……

Everyone was looking forward to it, they were afraid that Du Xiaosheng would not be able to hold on to death in advance, and they were even more afraid that Du Xiaosheng would hang up after going to the top of the mountain.

The blizzard behind him is still chasing Du Xiaosheng's figure, but the distance to the top is getting closer and closer!

The more you get to the end, the more difficult it becomes, and near the summit, there is no place for an ice axe, and there is no ice wall around it, but a huge black steep hillside.

Generally speaking, this last journey is made by Sherpas throwing ropes and climbing up with ropes.

But Du Xiaosheng has nothing, he only has paragliders in his bag now!

"What should I do?"

"Did you fall short?"

Many people are beginning to feel confused and anxious.

However, Du Xiaosheng did not hesitate much, he carefully observed the location of the highest peak of the mountain, and soon he found that three meters away from him, there was a rock crack filled with snow foam that led directly to the peak.

Du Xiaosheng exhaled and said with difficulty: "Next... I... To cross-cut to the crack...... There, and then climb through the cracks ... The pinnacle of K2 ......"[.]
