110 Moments of forgetfulness
The tip of the left finger touched the rough and jerky rock particles, through the thin anti-slip powder particles, you could faintly feel the water vapor seeping out of the surface of the stone; the right hand concentrated on stuffing into the gap between the rocks, the narrow gap only allowed the finger part to enter, slightly adjusted the angle, found the best position, and then tried a few times, and finally stuffed the finger in; both feet stepped on the protrusion of a cliff at this time, said to be a bulge, in fact, it was only a finger wide, and the toes exerted force through the thin bottom of the shoe, keeping the center of gravity steady。 Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The scorching sun overhead unleashed its energy unbridledly, the whole sky was illuminated, the scorching air seemed to become viscous and muddy, the sweat on his back was completely soaked by his clothes, and the sweat that slipped down his forehead dripped into his eyes, but he didn't have time to wipe it, a gust of wind howled through the canyon, and the narrow passage made the wind stronger, not only did you not feel the heat, but you could also feel the slightest cold, and goosebumps appeared on your arms.
Hot and cold, shaking and steady, sweating and shivering...... Contradictions and harmony blend together, as if you can clearly hear the dialogue between nature and your fingertips.
Take a deep breath, the tip of the right finger is forced, the forearm to the big arm and then to the shoulder to concentrate the force, the center of gravity sinks, the toe suddenly exerts force, the whole person jumps lightly; the left hand stretches diagonally upward, grabbing a fist-sized stone bulge, but due to excessive force, the estimated orientation deviates from some expectations, the fingertips hula slid across the rough rock surface, and before even having time to feel pain, the left hand firmly grasped the bulge; both feet stepped on the cliff surface below, a burst of sand particles fell down, feeling some slippery soles of the feet, as if not stepping on the center of gravity。
At the critical moment, the power of both hands completely burst out, pulling the body and making a pull-up arm pull action, pulling the falling body up, and then lifting the soles of the feet up a little, stepping directly on the wall, the top of the knee almost hit the stomach, but the absolutely tight muscles narrowly avoided it, but as expected, the soles of the feet did not step on the support, and began to slide down, but he raised a little higher than originally planned, the friction of the feet sliding down eased the downward trend, the thin soles were almost invisible, the toes groped calmly, and finally before the body was completely straightened, finally stopped the downward momentum, and finally stabilized.
"Whew, whew......" took two deep breaths, calming the boiling blood a little.
The outburst of adrenaline makes the brain completely blank, there is no time to think, can only rely on the body's instincts/abilities, intuitive guidance and training skills to respond, in just a millisecond, every muscle in the body is running at high speed, all distractions are completely gone, just focus on this cliff, just focus on the next bulge and gap, just focus on controlling the body, that's all.
Looking down at the soles of his feet, he was now nearly fifty meters above the ground, the dizzying height turned into a bottomless abyss in the turbulent water, like an open shark's mouth, ready to devour all life at any time, but what he felt was the excitement and excitement rushing in his blood, and at this moment, he truly forgot about himself.
I don't care who he really is, I don't care about the exploration of acting, I don't care about the entanglement of nightmares, because at this moment, everything is so real, really alive, really breathing, really existing, breathing, heartbeat, blood, sweat...... Every detail is truly mesmerizing. What does it matter if he is Lan Li or Paul, what matters is that at this moment, he can clearly touch the particles of the rocks, feel the wind raging, and breathe the air mixed with water vapor and moss.
The smile on the corner of his mouth involuntarily outlined, he wanted to shout happily, venting all the turbidity in his chest, but, when he raised his head, he saw the distance above his head, he was less than twenty meters away from the top of the cliff, and he could vaguely see the middle-aged man sitting on the edge of the cliff with his legs hanging from before, and the sound of the wind sending the intermittent humming of folk songs, comfortable and leisurely, the world seemed to be under his feet.
The excitement returned to the blood, his attention was concentrated again, his left hand grasped it, his right hand put it in the pocket behind his waist and grabbed the non-slip powder, the sweat on his palms and fingertips disappeared suddenly, and then along the crack just now, he slowly groped up, constantly trying to make an incision, trying to find a suitable position for the fingers.
The cliff in this area is very gentle, there are hardly too many stone protrusions, most of them are sand, not only there is no borrowing point, but the sand and gravel are too loose and easy to slip, so it is very dangerous. Luckily, this crack on the side provides a point of leverage, but caution is required.
The right hand is fully extended, the elbow is slightly bent, leaving a little room for exertion, and after confirming the position, I began to look for the point of borrowing power of the left hand. However, after looking for it all over again, the smooth wall made him useless, and there were really a lot of small stone protrusions, but even the strength of the toes was too difficult, let alone the fingers.
After patiently searching several times to make sure that there was no other way, he took a deep breath to calm his impetuous mood a little. Obviously, he is still inexperienced, and in the process of coming up, he chose a wrong path, or a difficult path, but this is also one of the charms of freehand climbing, all the unknowns are waiting for his own exploration, and only after encountering it, can he understand the original appearance of nature.
Immediately decided, he decided to continue climbing along the gap, which was demanding on his center of gravity and balance, but was the only way to the top of the cliff.
The left hand also began to repeat the work of the right hand just now, explored carefully, and finally found a stable position under the right hand, because the hands are put together, which puts forward higher requirements for the force, so you can't be too greedy, each time you move forward a little bit, keep a steady rise.
Some sweat oozing out of his left hand, put it in his pocket and twisted the anti-slip powder, and then pinched the palm of his hand, and stuffed it back into the gap, after confirming the power point of the two hands, his hands slammed hard, and the whole person took off again, but this time his feet did not rush to leave the wall, but stepped on the sand and stone to climb up little by little, and after the dantian lifted his breath, he felt that the state of being as light as a swallow, and he originally felt that it was an impossible task, but he still managed to take a big step forward again.
There was no time to rejoice, so he put his right hand in his pocket again and grabbed the anti-slip powder, repeating the action just now, but the boring process made the nerves completely tense.
The raging wind whistled through his arms, chest, and legs, as if he could blow him away at any moment, and then slam him to the ground, in the mid-air where he could not reach the world or the ground, he only relied on the strength of his hands to grasp a gap to control his body, and the sand and gravel under his feet continued to loosen and fall, and the roaring waves and the terrible chirping of eagles reflected the silence and emptiness of nature more and more, he knew that there were companions below and above, but at this moment, this was a man's battle.
He was not bored at all, he completely entered a state of self-forgetfulness, and all the mixed thoughts were insignificant, leaving only the smooth and mirror-like cliff in front of him.
Inhale, lift, and take off.
He climbed up again, but at this moment, the gap rock grabbed by his left hand suddenly made a crisp sound, and before he could react, his left hand grabbed a piece of broken stone and loosened it, because the force of both hands was extreme, the left hand flew backwards along the inertia, the fingertips of the right hand could feel the huge impact, the fingertips were fierce, and the falling body was paused for a while, and the shoulders could feel the violent gravity pulling, and the feet quickly began to step on the wall to use friction to stop, but in the instantaneous situation, the toes were slightly relieved, and the brain immediately realized that he had miscalculated the sense of space, and a gust of wind blew, he was less than a hair's length from the wall, and then he exerted force on his toes, and the result was ...... Stepped on the air.
Call.
The whole person fell down suddenly, and the strong pulling force of gravity couldn't stop at all, and then the tip of his right finger felt a huge tearing pain, even so, he still couldn't pull it, because he had lost the space to exert his force, so the whole person was like this...... Dropped.
The force of the free fall made the heart rush up suddenly, hitting the chest cavity fiercely, and then the rope around the waist was pulled up fiercely, strongly preventing the momentum of continuing to fall, and the surging force almost broke the body, all the internal organs rolled up, the stomach was tightly strangled, and the tumbling acid water was almost vomited.
The safety rope saved his life, but if it was a real freehand climb, he would be buried here today. This is much worse than Paul's situation in "being buried alive", he doesn't even have time to be afraid, and everything is over, let alone lying there with remorse, fear, fear and despair. Whether it is Paul or Lan Li, at this moment, he should be glad: he is still alive, and he is still qualified to regret, challenge, and collide.
He relaxed his limbs and hung in the air, not in a hurry to regain control of his body, let gravity pull his limbs down, all the strength in his body was withdrawn, and the blood began to flow to his brain. He thought it was funny, and he laughed.
"Dude, are you alright?"
A concerned voice came from not far away, and Lan Li made an "OK" gesture, "It's okay, I don't want to die yet, so the protective measures are in place enough." ”
The self-deprecating words made the other party laugh deeply, and then, Lan Li grabbed the rope again with both hands, took back control of his body, and swung it gently, hooking a stone bulge on his toes, which looked like the support point he had grasped with his hands before, and then stabilized his body.
At this time, he had time to look at his companion who was also climbing, but it was not the middle-aged man just now, but a guy about the same age as Lan Li, "Hall?" the other party was the first to exclaim.
