Those years of engaging with the system for animal insurance

Under the sun, everyone got out of the car and looked at the herd of Tibetan antelopes migrating not far away.

Their time estimate was good, just in time for the Tibetan antelope to pass by here.

On the grassland not far away, some of the female Tibetan antelopes with big bellies were grazing with their heads down, while the other part came to the lake not far away to drink water.

There are few trees on the plateau, the sun is scorching the land, and there are almost no places where you can enjoy the cool.

The motorcade took out the umbrellas that shaded the sun and provided shade for everyone.

Li Cixin took the mineral water bottle and moistened his dry throat.He smacked his lips, put down the bottle, and looked at the herd of Tibetan antelopes in the distance.

Originally, the team planned to go deep into Hoh Xil to shoot, hoping to record the collective birth of Tibetan antelopes.

However, Hoh Xil, one of the four uninhabited areas in China, is not allowed to enter casually without relevant procedures.What's more, there is still a period of time before the female Tibetan antelope gives birth. The association has made preparations in a hurry, and the relevant procedures have not been approved in time.

Therefore, they chose to come here to film a migration of Tibetan antelope.

When building railways and related roads, the migration characteristics of various plateau animals are taken into account.

Once upon a time, the Tibetan antelope, a plateau species, was once endangered.The meat of the Tibetan antelope is full of parasites, and the bones and horns have no other uses. The reason why they are hunted in large numbers is their cashmere.

Tibetan antelope cashmere is very soft and comfortable, known as soft gold.In the world of fibers, it is the most famous one. The thinnest one tested by research is 6.51μm, and the average fineness is 13.4μm.

It is the thinnest of animal fibers.These shawls made of Tibetan antelope cashmere are called "Shahtoosh", which is a very expensive luxury.

The Tibetan antelope cashmere is basically the most valuable undercoat that is close to the skin, so poachers will peel off the Tibetan antelope's skin, and then discard the bloody carcass on the plateau.

In the era when the state did not strictly manage, many poachers chose to hunt when the female Tibetan antelope gave birth collectively.

There used to be a documentary describing Hoh Xil after poachers crossed the border.

Those pregnant female Tibetan antelopes were killed before they had time to give birth to cubs, and some were skinned before they died.

Only the red and white corpses in the wilderness were still shaking, and the snowy plateau was like hell. Those greedy poachers didn't even let go of the newborn lambs.

Later, as the Huaxia Kingdom paid more attention to it, more and more protectors joined it, and some even died at the gunpoint of poachers.

Everything is improving. Through international cooperation and domestic protection, the number of Tibetan antelopes has recovered to a certain extent. All these efforts have achieved remarkable results.

With his own eyesight, Li Cixin could clearly see every move of the Tibetan antelope. In order to put on a show, he still chose to take the binoculars handed over by others.

The follow-up shooting this time will last about three or four days.

The convoy left the main road and started driving on the plateau.Without a flat road, the bumps on the car became more and more intense, which was quite a challenge for everyone. After only half a day of driving, everyone's bones were about to fall apart.

Those who participated in this mission for the first time had to lament the hard work of real animal protectors.

Fortunately, the speed of the Tibetan antelope is not faster than that of a car, so you don't have to rush to drive.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone got out of the car and came to the place where the Tibetan antelope herd rested last night.

At this moment, the grass is in a mess, and many footprints and bloodstains make the scene shocking.

There was a battle here last night, and due to the distance, it was very dark.Everyone didn't get out of the car, and two photographers came out to take this rare scene with night vision mode:

A group of plateau wolves rounded up a pregnant female Tibetan antelope and successfully hunted it.

For such a natural struggle of natural selection, they have no position to manage.

After this incident, this small group of Tibetan antelope was washed away.The convoy followed until the morning, only to find that the flock of sheep had assembled.

For animals, survival in nature is basically life and death.

The shooting of the Tibetan antelope lasted for a total of four days, and we were about to leave the area if we went further north, so everyone chose to return the same way.

The footage was enough to edit a video. After returning to Lhasa, everyone played for two days and decided to leave, but Li Cixin planned to stay for a few more days.

"I'm sorry, President, I plan to play here for a few more days, so I won't go back with you."

The president looked at him: "Alright then, when you get home, remember to send a message in the group."

"OK, all right."

Li Cixin returned to the hotel where he was staying, and said to the front desk:

"Excuse me, let me return the room. Do you know if there is a bus to the base camp on the northern slope of Everest?"

The reason why he stayed alone was because Little Treasure had already sent a signal, the energy of the system was almost exhausted, and the task was basically completed. He had to find a place with few people, high terrain and low temperature to store the gene capsule.

Originally, Li Cixin first thought of Antarctica, not to mention the distance. Furthermore, in the process of describing the future development of human beings, Xiaobao mentioned the north and south poles, as the two ends of the earth's magnetic field. At that time, it was basically destroyed into a hornet's nest.

Glaciers melt, islands sink, and most animals will become extinct. This force majeure factor is also the reason why there are no northern and southern polar land animals in Li Cixin's missions.

Li Cixin had already thought of Mount Everest when he was chasing Tibetan antelopes.

As the highest peak in the world, its shady side is basically not exposed to the sun and is covered by glaciers all year round.There are few better places to store gene capsules than here.

The north side of Mount Everest is also a place that many mountaineering enthusiasts dream of conquering.

Unfortunately, due to the perennial glaciers and the steep and steep terrain, many famous mountaineering enthusiasts have fallen here.

Li Cixin is now planning to climb the highest peak in the world once to complete the final task.

Xiaobao's energy is no longer enough, and the gene capsule must be stored quickly.

The straight-line distance from Lhasa to Mount Everest Base Camp is about 450 kilometers, the driving distance is about 700 kilometers, and the continuous driving time takes about 14 hours.

Therefore, it generally takes 2 days during the itinerary to reach the Everest Base Camp from Lhasa.

On this way, we have to pass through National Highway 318, which is known as the most beautiful in China.

Li Cixin was very lucky. He quickly found a convoy to Mount Everest in this plateau city.

These people are full-fledged travel madmen, both male and female.For these people, even if they don't climb Mount Everest, taking a look at it means a complete life.

Seeing a young man like Li Cixin come to carpool, these old fritters laughed and said:

"Be careful, if you don't pay attention, you will have to be African!"

Li Cixin was not intimidated, and quickly got along with everyone.

The journey was fairly smooth at the beginning, but it became more and more bumpy as they got to the back. Two days later, they finally arrived at the Everest Base Camp at an altitude of more than 5000 meters.

The base camp is located in a valley, where oxygen is relatively sufficient, but there are still a lot of people who have severe altitude sickness.

The environment that I used to adapt to in Lhasa has changed again here.

When Li Cixin and the others arrived, it was already evening, the night was dark, and the dark sky gradually enveloped the camp.

Through the naked eye, you can see Mount Everest in the distance, and the golden sunset is sprinkled on the snow-capped mountains, just like the holy land in religious murals.

The vastness and beauty from the earth hit everyone's visual nerves.

Soon, it was completely dark.Because the sky is cloudless and the atmosphere is thin, as long as you look up, you can see the sky full of stars hanging above your head.

However, on the first day, many people were not in good condition, and not many people were in the mood to take pictures.

There are two types of accommodation fees here, one is a Datong shop for several people, the price is around 100 yuan, and the price for a single room is as high as 400 yuan.

Li Cixin was not short of the money, not to mention, he had something to do at night, so he chose a private room, and said to the service staff:

"I may get up late tomorrow. I am too tired these days. I hope I can take a good rest."

After finishing speaking, Li Cixin slipped into the night alone while everyone basically turned off the lights and went to sleep.

The straight-line distance from the Everest base camp to the peak is about 19 kilometers.As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, but the actual distance is naturally more than that.

Fortunately, Li Cixin's current speed and stamina are both top-notch, and he finally reached the foot of Mount Everest in the middle of the night.

He found a relatively less steep place and started climbing.

With claws digging into the ice, the temperature on Mount Everest dropped to minus six degrees at night.The huge mountain wind is like an invisible hand pushing it.

Relying on his outstanding ability, Li Cixin climbed up steadily and quickly.

Finally, at four or five o'clock in the morning, the first ray of sunlight appeared in the distant sky, and he successfully stuffed the gene capsule into the ice crevice at the mountain neck.

"Are you going to disappear soon?"

Li Cixin didn't care about the cold, sat on the ice, watched the distant sky gradually brighten, and asked.

Xiaobao: "Well, the energy has basically been exhausted, and the system program will be automatically closed after the task is completed.

In addition to leaving a timing alarm for the gene capsule, it will also reserve some energy for you, which is convenient for you to use to modify your identity information in the future.After calculation, it can last for about 200 years, so remember to save it. "

"Ok."

Unprepared, Li Cixin felt pain in his head, and passed out after a while.

When he woke up again, it was the golden sunlight that woke him up.

He stared wide-eyed, looked at Chaoyang, and subconsciously said:

"It's a pity that I didn't bring a camera, Xiaobao, can you save this scene?

Little Treasure..."

For a long time, there was no sound, only the howling mountain wind responded to him.

………………

At the base camp of Mount Everest around noon, a handsome young man with pale skin stopped a traveler and asked:

"Hello, can I take a photo for you?"

The passenger took the mobile phone: "Okay, you stand there!"

The young man raised his old-fashioned scissors with a smile on his face, with the towering snow-capped mountains shrouded in mist behind him.

A click.

The picture is forever frozen at this moment.
