Chapter 580 - 274: Live Solo Ascent of Mount Everest—Day 1! (Part 2)

Whether it’s skiing or mountaineering, Li Younan is unquestionably a master.

Thus, with the earnest hopes of the majority and some skeptics lurking in the shadows waiting for Li Younan to fail, Li Younan arrived at the Mount Everest base camp.

...

Online sources say, the Mount Everest base camp is quite a trap... After all, arriving here requires paying fees multiple times. But undeniably, for ordinary people, the Mount Everest base camp is the closest they can get to Mount Everest.

Speak as it is, although the commercial side of Nepal is more developed, merely viewing Mount Everest from the base camp, the view from the north slope is more magnificent.

However, Li Younan concluded... standing at the base camp looking at Mount Everest isn’t as grand as viewing Gongga Mountain from its foothills.

After all, the altitude at the Mount Everest base camp already reaches over five thousand, and the altitude difference is just a bit more than three thousand, a figure even less than viewing Gongga Mountain from its foothills.

But nobody doubts the difficulty of climbing Mount Everest.

Liu Li got off the vehicle, rose on her toes, and gently kissed Li Younan, then earnestly said, "No matter what choice you make, I’ll support you, and I won’t worry because I believe my man is the most formidable man in the world. But if you’re gone, I guess I won’t be able to live either..."

Li Younan was taken aback for a moment, then bumped Liu Li’s forehead with his: "What are you talking about? Quick, spit on it..."

"Pfft pfft pfft..." Liu Li stuck her tongue out.

Li Younan said, "This mountain is a bit tricky, I definitely won’t make it up in a day, so you’ll have to stay in the RV for a few days alone."

"Uh-huh..."

"The fridge in the car is packed, make whatever you like."

"I will research some delicious dishes and surprise you when you return, hee hee."

"The water and diesel are filled up, so you’ll be fine using them for quite a while, you don’t have to be too frugal, it’s enough to last until I return. But it’s quite cold here, so do not turn off the heater, or the water in the RV might freeze."

"Uh-huh..."

"I taught you last time, there’s also a backup one... Furthermore, take care of Tuantuan and Fantasy. If Fantasy bullies Tuantuan, give it a beating..."

"They’re quite loving to each other now..."

"If Fantasy makes noise at night, put it in the cockpit."

Li Younan patiently reminded Liu Li for a while, and Liu Li obediently listened, remembering everything.

Yet when Li Younan really set off, Liu Li couldn’t help but start crying: "Li Younan!"

"Ah... still ended up crying huh." Li Younan helplessly turned back and smiled.

Liu Li shouted loudly, "If... if you genuinely encounter difficulty, come back, don’t push through... I want to hold the warm you to sleep!"

Li Younan smiled, saluted with a finger, and walked away.

...

Before formally departing, Li Younan, of course, thoroughly checked his equipment.

His equipment is undoubtedly top-notch, because he didn’t carry oxygen cylinders, theoretically making Li Younan’s equipment lighter... but in truth, it wasn’t.

He brought extra skis, as well as multiple power banks for streaming.

After all, in cold regions, battery life decreases significantly.

But considering Li Younan’s extraordinary carrying ability, it’s really negligible.

As soon as Li Younan left the Mount Everest base camp, he started his livestream.

He used two perspectives for streaming—a mobile live broadcast view and an external panoramic camera view.

This panoramic camera was fixed on his back, using the hidden function of the streaming stick, offering a perspective akin to playing Grand Theft Auto in third-person view, providing a strong sense of immersion.

The base stations on Mount Everest are incredibly well-built, even at an altitude of 7000 meters, you can still search for 5G signals, can you believe it?

When Li Younan’s livestream went live, almost instantly, a large number of viewers flooded in.

And Douyin officials quickly noticed Li Younan’s livestream room, promptly responding with traffic and providing higher channel support, quickly attracting tens of thousands of viewers to Li Younan’s livestream.

Only then did some remaining skeptics become really convinced, Li Younan wasn’t pretending at all!

Holding his phone, with too many people in the livestream, the comment barrage was like a waterfall, scrolling swiftly, making it impossible to see what everyone was saying.

Li Younan initially held a desire to chat with netizens, but seeing this scene, he decisively gave up.

"Ha... everyone’s comments are too fast, I can’t chat with everyone, so just listen to me speak."

"Right now, I’ve just left the base camp..."

Saying this, Li Younan curiously turned and aimed his phone’s lens at the base camp behind him, then turned back, saying, "Everyone can take a look at this scenery..."

"Starting from here, there’s an extremely flat and open plain, but along the way are these moraine grounds, take a look, it’s permafrost mixed with snow and ice, incredibly hard!"

Li Younan in the camera struck the pointed moraine ground with the ice axe.

"How to put it, I just arrived at the Mount Everest base camp and immediately set off, but if anyone in the comment section plans to try Everest, I wouldn’t recommend doing it like me."

"Generally speaking, it’s advised to acclimate at the Everest camp for three to seven days."

"The route for climbing Everest is already quite mature, I’m climbing Everest for the first time, so I won’t go for innovation, just follow the conventional route... After all, there are many campsites along the way to replenish supplies and rest."
