116 Skydiving training
7 a.m., Ningzhou, Qingtian Building, 12th Floor, Qinglan Consulting.
Xu Yan is still sleeping in the dormitory, he didn't go home until two o'clock in the middle of the night last night, and when he went to call him in the morning, he said that he still had to sleep. Wang Youquan stayed at home last night, and now he should be sending his son to school at this time. The company's system is to go to work at nine o'clock, and Wu Xiaoqing arrived for two hours in the morning.
It's not that Wu Xiaoqing is diligent and gets up early, in the past, he could sleep as much as he could in the morning and sleep as often as he wanted, and he often got up at noon.
Wake up early because there's something to do.
"Professor Shen!?" After pushing open the door, Wu Xiaoqing was surprised to see that Shen Changwen was sitting in front of a computer in the hall, looking at something seriously, "Why are you here so early?" ”
The search and rescue team left a message telling him that Shen Changwen would come to the office today, but he still didn't believe it.
"What, I can't come?" Shen Changwen also had a basket of xiaolongbao and a cup of soy milk on his table, which should be his breakfast. It seemed that he had only eaten half of it, and when he was talking to Wu Xiaoqing, he began to continue eating.
"No, no...... I said the wrong thing. Yes welcome welcome ...... Last night, when we were eating, we talked about you. ”
"What about them?"
"Oh, Xu Yan is still sleeping, Wang Youquan said that he just went out and was on the way."
"Call Xu Yan again and ask him to come over early," Shen Changwen looked very good, and pushed his breakfast over to Wu Xiaoqing, "Have you eaten breakfast, if you haven't eaten it, you can eat some by the way." ”
"I'll eat on the way here, I'll make a phone call."
Wu Xiaoqing came back after calling, and Shen Changwen's breakfast had just finished. Wu Xiaoqing leaned behind him, looked at the dense text on the computer, and asked curiously: "Are these all related to tasks?" ”
"No, this is my student's paper...... Mission, to be honest, I don't know right now. But you have to be mentally prepared this time, it will not be as easy as before. ”
Wu Xiaoqing was surprised: "Before...... Is that easy? ”
Riding horses for months in a row, living in a stinking environment, eating without spices, sleeping without beds, working as a nurse and a general...... Wu Xiaoqing thinks about it now, and feels that it is a miracle that he has been able to survive until now.
"Of course it's easy, you see, we have pistols and *, and what about others, knives and shields. It's been a few eras late, and the work done is also some hard work, and if you really want to talk about danger, I'm afraid it's not yet. ”
This Wu Xiaoqing really can't say that there is, nominally he is charging into battle, but in fact, everything is under control.
"And this time...... It's not like we're going to really hit those with tanks and cannons. ”
"If you really let you go, don't say dare or not, will you? Do you know what to use to hit a tank? ”
“RPG。” Wu Xiaoqing has still seen some news.
"RPGs can't beat modern tanks...... Even if you were given an RPG, would you use it? ”
Faced with this professor who couldn't speak by asking doctoral students all year round, Wu Xiaoqing, a junior high school student, could only scratch his head.
"So what is our mission today?"
"Medical exam."
"Medical exam?"
"Yes," Shen Changwen said, "the younger you are, the more you should pay attention to your health." ”
"But I've heard that you can't eat or drink water during the physical examination." When he was in the third year of junior high school, Wu Xiaoqing had a physical examination at school.
"That's a blood test, and we're not doing a blood test today."
"So what's the test?"
Shen Changwen smiled: "Heart." ”
At a quarter past 8, Xu Yan and Wang Youquan came together. They said hello to each other, and then the four of them got in a car together and went to the nearest hospital. Chen She had already made an appointment in advance, and now it was early, so there was no need to wait for a sign, and he saw the doctor directly.
The doctor looked at the four of them: "You guys are from one unit?" ”
"Yes, the unit organizes activities," Shen Changwen said, "to do an inspection in advance." ”
The doctor looked up at them: "Roller coaster?" ”
"Bungee jumping and skydiving."
After Shen Changwen said this, the three people who listened to it were a little stunned - they didn't know whether to be happy or afraid. Maybe both, but the unexpected comes first. Xu Yan's lips were a little pale, he looked at Wu Xiaoqing, and almost cried: "Mr. Wu, I'm afraid of heights." ”
The doctor looked at him: "It's better not to go if you're afraid of heights." ”
Wu Xiaoqing glanced at him: "Isn't it okay for you to climb the mountain with us before, and you went to pee on the city wall...... You're scared of the hell. Are you really afraid of heights, are you still peeing out? ”
A heart test is a routine test of heart rate, and because there are no symptoms, there is no need to take special pictures. The four of them added up to half an hour, and it was over in the end. The results showed that their hearts were healthy and they were able to participate in some extreme sports – of course, the doctor reminded them that it was best to have sufficient psychological anticipation and preparation before participating.
In addition, the doctor also asked them if they had myopia, the more serious kind - bungee jumping may cause retinal detachment.
Walking out of the hospital, Shen Changwen looked at his mobile phone and said directly: "Let's drive, go now." ”
Xu Yan hadn't reacted yet: "Where are you going?" ”
"Bungee jumping, start simple."
"Simple?"
"Yes, the search and rescue team said, let you get used to it first, today is bungee jumping, tomorrow will start paragliding practice, and finally high-altitude skydiving, and strive to be completely familiar with it within a month."
These terms alone made Wu Xiaoqing and the three of them tremble. Wu Xiaoqing thought that he would be more courageous after a battle, but it turned out that when the car was driving all the way, Wu Xiaoqing was muttering all the way in his heart.
The amusement center in Ningzhou is some distance from the city center, but no matter how far it is, it is only half an hour by car. Today's road conditions are particularly good, usually there is a morning rush hour, but they have a smooth road. When he entered the playground, Wu Xiaoqing saw two big men at the door spitting on the ground, his face looked like he had eaten an earthworm, and his friend was still teasing on the side: "Didn't I just push you, as for it...... Scared like this. ”
"Damn!" The boy said with a look of anger on his face, "In such a high place, you are pushed down to try it......"
"What is it here, it's only a few tens of meters high, and I'll skip over the one hundred and fifty meters high on the East Lake...... Oops, you're up anyway...... Nothing! ”
Continuing to walk, they heard two high-pitched shouts in the distance, and then they saw a tower as high as a ten-story building, and on the rope below, two people were being hung straight down, and the loud shout was shouted by the two people hanging on the rope, and it sounded heartbreaking.
Luckily, there are a lot of people queuing up here today, and in front of them, there are twenty or thirty people waiting to jump, so the time left for them to make "psychological expectations" is still very abundant.
After most people go on stage, they will be afraid to jump, often after a long time of ideological mobilization, and finally close their eyes, and then - the staff gently push them behind their backs, followed by the earth-shattering ghost crying wolf.
Many of the people who came to bungee jumping were all women, and after coming down, some even cried in fright. The man's face was not much better, and they all looked like they had taken two pairs of Chinese medicine, and their faces were full of bitterness.
This time in line gave Wu Xiaoqing some courage, after all, many women dare to jump, they are a group of big men, people who have really seen the world, do they need to be afraid of this thing?
The jumping platform here is a double jumping platform, that is, two people together. Wu Xiaoqing is in front with Xu Yan, and Shen Changwen and Wang Youquan are in the back. When signing the life and death certificate, Xu Yan couldn't even hold the pen steadily, saying that his whole body was weak.
The staff seemed to be familiar with these things, so they casually tied the safety buckles on the feet of the two of them, and then let the two of them go to the jumping platform to prepare. Xu Yan looked at his whole body, and the pair of buckles on his feet was connected to a rope, and he was surprised: "Is that all?" What if the rope breaks? ”
"It's not going to break," said the staff, "and it's going to be okay to jump a few hundred times a day." ”
Wu Xiaoqing just walked out of the preparation room and came to the jumping platform, looking at the ground under his feet, he felt a feeling of weakness all over his body, and a cold sweat came out of the pores of his body. Looking at Xu Yan on the side, his eyes were all closed - he didn't dare to look at it at all.
"Xu Yan," Wu Xiaoqing shouted to him, "I'll count one, two, three, and we'll dance together." ”
Xu Yan nodded.
"One ......"
"Two ......"
"Wait......" Xu Yan said with a wave of his hand, "wait...... I'll get used to it a little more. ”
The staff is still experienced, and they used to say to Xu Yan: "In this way, stand up first, I'll count to three, and then ......" As soon as he was halfway through the words, he pushed him down.
Then the staff member came behind Wu Xiaoqing and asked, "Do you want to help?" ”
Wu Xiaoqing felt that he was a little better than Xu Yan. He began to count again, and when Xu Yan was about to fall to the bottom, he jumped forward.
When Wu Xiaoqing went down, Xu Yan just bounced back by the rope, and the two saw each other's faces, whether Wu Xiaoqing had just fallen, or was he completely scared, Xu Yan seemed to be better, and made an OK gesture to Wu Xiaoqing.
The stimulation is really exciting, in the few seconds after falling, Wu Xiaoqing almost completely lost the ability to think, and his whole body stiffened because of the great fear, so he stared blankly at the water surface and himself getting closer and closer. But when it rebounds, most of that fear disappears, replaced by freshness and curiosity.
When he finally stopped to get on the boat, Xu Yan was very satisfied with his performance this time: "Look, if you say let's jump together, you have to rub for a few seconds." ”
Wu Xiaoqing shot back: "Then we'll jump together later." ”
"Wait? What do you mean? Xu Yan's whole body trembled.
"Didn't you hear Professor Shen on the way here? It's bungee jumping today, and it's only morning...... There's still a long ...... to go today."
"No......" Xu Yan didn't want to come here again, this kind of stimulation was too scary for him, "It's a lot of money to jump here...... Still is...... Save some money. ”
But his prayers were doomed to be in vain, and when Shen Changwen and the others finished jumping and came behind them, he said to the two of them: "What are you still doing in a daze, continue to line up." ”
"How many times are you going to dance today?" Xu Yan asked Shen Changwen cautiously.
Shen Changwen's answer was just four words: "Jump to the door." ”
