109 Freehand climbing

The scorching August sun shrouded over Europe, and even the air was filled with a scorching heat, as if a few moments under the scorching sun were enough to melt everything. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but even so, it still hasn't been able to stop people's enthusiasm for vacation.

As the busiest holiday of the year, people from all over the continent are flocking to the resort to enjoy this rare holiday. The small islands of Ibiza, Corsica, the small islands of Santorini, Morocco...... Every sunny spot has become a destination for Europeans, bustling on the beach, relaxing and letting sunbathing, cocktails and sea water fill every day of their holiday.

The Vélton Valley, located in Provence in the south of France, is also one of the most famous holiday destinations, with world-famous rosé wines, purple lavender fields that bloom in July, and Lake Sainte-Cross, not to mention the southern cuisine that is part of the French cuisine. Germans, British, Swedes and more, all of whom have made long and arduous journeys to get here, catch the last tail of summer and party to their heart's content.

However, the Verdon Canyon is twelve miles long, and the gentle sections of the water are noisy, the fast-flowing sections are majestic and precipitous, the sound of rushing water bursting into thunder in the sun, the dark brown cliffs covered with continuous green vegetation, towering into the clouds, silent, rocks and abysses, reckless and barren, green water and rainbow shadows, blue skies and goshawks...... It was as quiet as a paradise, and the sound of the wind carried the air far away from the depths of the canyon, and the heat of midsummer disappeared in an instant.

"Are you okay?"

A hoarse sound echoed over the river of the canyon, and in the blink of an eye it was swallowed up by the angry waves, and when you looked closer, you could see a middle-aged man with a ponytail pigtail, wearing loose shorts, naked/naked upper body, revealing a strong muscle, a small black cloth bag hanging from his waist, the mouth of the bag was covered with white non-slip powder, and there was nothing else, hanging empty on the steep face of the cliff. His hands were relaxed and tense, grasping two small bulges each, and his feet were not stepping on any support, like an eagle, hanging in the air, at least thirty meters above the ground, and his whole body was only maintained by the strength of his fingers.

Such a picture, just by drawing it in his mind, is enough to scare a cold sweat, it is unimaginable, as long as he is not careful, or his palms are sweaty, or his fingertips are relaxed, then he will fall directly in free fall, and then turn into a bloody corpse.

But now, he's relaxed, smiling, and even having the heart to gossip!

"Huh. It's okay. ”

About fifteen meters below him, there was a small rock bulge, only the size of a handkerchief, a young boy stepped on the bulge with one foot, his right hand held high above a crack in the rock, and then his whole body opened out, the fierce wind whistled, he hit back like an open window, his back hit the cliff firmly, some trivial rock fragments fell, as if the support point of his right hand and hands and feet was in jeopardy, but he looked leisurely, standing on a high place and looking at the green and blue horizon in the distance, the gloom and tangled between his eyebrows stretched a little。

The combination of black shorts and a white T-shirt, and a bag of non-slip powder hanging from the waist, but compared to the middle-aged man, there is also a bright yellow hiking rope tied around the waist, but the rope does not fall from the top as people remember, but extends down from the waist, and a large bundle of hiking rope can be seen on the ground, obviously, this rope is not an aid for climbing, but a protective measure, or a shortcut for descending.

But even so, it still makes people's palms sweaty and frightened.

He raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man diagonally above, "If you say, I'm thinking about life, do you believe it?"

This teasing made the middle-aged man laugh, "Then you have chosen a wonderful place, I think you are very tasteful." The man nodded to the young man below, "Good luck!"

After finishing speaking, I saw that the man used both hands to exert force, and the whole person hung upside down, and then his feet touched the rock, groped for a while, stepped on a borrowing point, and as soon as his left hand was released, the whole person was suspended in the air and circled, just when he was about to hit the cliff, his left foot stretched out as a buffer, so that his speed was slowed down, and then his left hand was wiped up, grabbing another small bulge.

He didn't rush to continue to exert his strength, but groped carefully, and after confirming that the strength of his left hand was accurate, he adjusted his breathing and began to climb up step by step, like a gecko, without any equipment or any protective measures, completely freehand climbing, agile and light, integrated with the wind, rocks and sky.

Lan Li was a little distracted, and his eyes couldn't help but show a trace of envy and yearning.

His ultimate goal is also to climb the cliff with his bare hands, without relying on any equipment, with only a bag of non-slip powder. Of course, as a beginner, he still has a lot to learn, compared with rope climbing, freehand climbing is not only more dangerous and exciting, but also the requirements for physical function are also comprehensively rising, because any little error and negligence, then there is no chance of recovery.

This is the third time Lan Li has tried physical freehand rock climbing, although he does not use any tools to climb upwards, but he will still carry a climbing rope, a quick hook and a hanging piece, after climbing to a certain position with his bare hands, use the fast hook to fasten the hanging piece, to ensure that after he falls by mistake, the protection measures can save his life.

It's been three weeks since the "buried alive" finish, the film was completed six days earlier than expected, and it took only eight days to complete all the filming in the studio, after which Rodrigo will finish filming the dubbing performance and then enter the post-editing production stage.

In the last three days of filming, Lan Li tried to re-enter the feeling of being on the verge of losing control and control, but failed, he never felt it again, and that feeling of losing control continued through to the end, supporting all his performances. However, for Lan Li, the movie is finished, but his role is still not over.

He has always been immersed in the world of Paul Conroy, the only difference from the movie is that he survived, but things are not so simple, after experiencing the fear of being buried alive, after experiencing the threat of the Grim Reaper's sickle, after experiencing the trauma of being abandoned by the government/government and the company, even if he survives, his soul is still full of holes. In many cases, the wounds of the body can be healed immediately, but the wounds of the spirit will remain for a long time.

It's like Eugene Slaich of the "Pacific War". Lan Li is most curious about the fact that Eugene's faith and soul have been shattered, so how did he return to normal life after that? Now, he is also experiencing all this as "Paul".

He had come to his senses, able to distinguish the line between fantasy and reality, and understood that he was Lan Li and not Paul, but the mental trauma remained deeply in his mind, as if he had really experienced a live burial and escaped, which gave him a schizophrenic delusion.

To make matters worse, his sleep quality has not improved much, and sleep is a more satisfying cure for him than food and desserts. But now, the nightmare lingers. After the finishing, he was having the same dream, he was back in that coffin again, about to be buried alive. Every dream was much the same, and every fear and despair were unabated.

He knows that this is called too deep into the play.

But he didn't expect that he from the traditional academy would one day fall into such an embarrassing situation, and if the school teachers knew about it, they would probably severely criticize him for not doing his job.

Faced with such a situation for the first time, he was a complete rookie, and he didn't know what he should do, and finding a psychiatrist didn't seem to be the right choice, so after leaving Barcelona, Lan Li came to Verdon Canyon to learn from the basics and really devote himself to the world of freehand climbing.

Freehand rock climbing is a sport that challenges one's own limits, but it is not a "death" move, so before officially entering the field challenge, Lan Li started a two-week study, from skills to exercise, from simulation to actual combat, even if Lan Li's physical fitness is very suitable for challenging freehand rock climbing, the previous attempts of surfing, bungee jumping, diving, mountaineering, and downhill skiing have laid a solid foundation for him.

But even so, after entering the world of real freehand rock climbing, Lan Li still deeply felt his own insignificance.

He was now standing in the middle of a cliff about fifteen meters in the air, equivalent to the height of a five-story building, and he had spent almost twice as long as the middle-aged man - a Frenchman who was one of the members of the club where he had learned to climb freehand, and today the whole club had five people coming here to climb freehand.

Standing in mid-air, the raging wind continued to hit me, and the insignificance of human beings was like a speck of dust in the contrast between this three-hundred-meter-high cliff and the endless horizon in front of them, and the turbulent water under the feet was covered with white sprays, smashing the rocks of the river, stirring up a large area of mist, and two rainbows appeared under the reflection of the sun, which was wonderful.

But Lan Li knew that such a wonderful scenery was full of murderous intentions, and as long as his fingers loosened slightly, he might die here.

The rush and burst of adrenaline made his palms begin to sweat, and he couldn't help but feel a little dry, and the thoughts in his brain about Paul, about being buried alive, about nightmares were shattered, he left all the shadows behind him, concentrated all his attention on his fingertips, and then stepped on the cliff with his left leg and slammed it, the whole person turned back like a strong car, raised his right hand high, accurately and forcefully grasped the bulge that he had been optimistic about three minutes ago, and the muscles of his body tightened to the extreme, bursting with powerful energy.

At this moment, his brain fell into an absolute blank, and he was about to start challenging the limit again.
