Chapter 106: The Chicken in the Soup
After climbing over the high wall and running hundreds of meters of gravel sections, everyone was greeted by a steep and wide ditch. There is water in the ditch, and the water is rippling, flowing gently, and I don't know how deep it is. More than 10 meters above the water surface, a log is elevated, like a fiber rope running through the opposite bank, trembling and prohibitive.
Xu Wenlong stopped, his eyes swept over the four team members one by one, and finally stayed on Xiao Ming for a long time.
Xiao Ming straightened his chest, shook his spirits and said loudly: "No problem! ”
Li Xianghua hurriedly added: "Don't worry, I will follow him on the bridge." ”
Xu Wenlong nodded, turned around and stepped towards the single-plank bridge......
Although the logs are thick and sturdy, the bark has been stripped away, making it difficult to walk barely. In addition, the ditch is wide and there is no support in the middle, so people walk up and tremble like stepping on a tightrope. If you are not careful, you are in danger of falling into the bottom of the ditch and being filled with muddy water.
Xu Wenlong tightened his abdomen and lifted his breath, stabilized his center of gravity, and under the worried gaze of the team members, he reached the opposite shore step by step without danger.
"It's my turn next." Liu Qiang rubbed his hands, looking a little nervous. It is no wonder that after a transfer from the armed police force, he usually pays attention to grappling and fighting training, and he is rarely exposed to cross-country courses like this.
"Pay attention to the center of gravity of your body, and don't look down at eye level." Wang Dahai reminded.
Liu Qiang smiled, opened his mouth to take a deep breath, and slowly walked towards the single-plank bridge with his arms raised. He steadied himself, stared ahead, and walked step by step with great caution and caution, as if he had walked through a frightening minefield......
When Wang Dahai also successfully passed the single-plank bridge, Xiao Ming didn't say a word and stepped towards the single-plank bridge first. His family was well-off and he had not experienced setbacks. In addition, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is flexible, and he became the leader of Liang Jingxuan's bodyguard team in a short time. Because of this, he is extremely arrogant and conceited, and ordinary people don't pay attention to it at all. This time, the boss's daughter was kidnapped, and as the head of the bodyguard, he was excluded from the rescue team, which made him very depressed and angry, and always wanted to take the opportunity to save a little face and establish some image. I never thought that I would be frustrated one after another in less than a day and lose several times. Although no one said anything about him, it made him even more annoyed and breathless, and vowed to perform well in future training and fully show himself, so as to regain his former style and regain his former glory.
"Take it easy," Li Xianghua said after him, "Your breath hasn't been evenly adjusted yet, so you should be more careful." ”
Xiao Ming snorted in his nose, didn't answer, just threw off his arms and walked straight forward.
Li Xianghua hurriedly raised his legs and followed......
At this time, Xiao Ming fully revealed the advantage of long-term martial arts. The walk is light and fast, the coordination is good, and walking on the smooth log is like a leisurely walk, which is particularly relaxed and especially free. It's not like the others, who are jealous and shrunken, and are as cautious as a landmine.
However, Li Xianghua, who was following behind, was bitter, swaying, and frightened every step. Not only should you pay attention to the smooth logs under your feet, but also take care of the injured Xiao Ming in front. That funny and embarrassing appearance really made Xu Wenlong and others on the other side sweat.
"Watch your step, slow down, go slower!" Li Xianghua was frightened and kept reminding Xiao Ming.
"Take care of yourself, don't fall into the water and become a chicken in the soup." When Xiao Ming heard this, he became more and more skillful and juggled on the log. Jumping like a kangaroo, swaying left and right and twisting Yangge. The movements are extremely exaggerated and wild, and people can't help but laugh when they are worried.
"Okay, okay, okay, count it on you, so you can do it yourself." When Li Xianghua saw this, he also felt that he was worried about the sky in vain. Immediately, he calmed down and walked forward step by step......
Suddenly, the log under his feet shook for no reason, and then he rolled half a circle to the left......
"What? Do you want to go down and take a bath......" Li Xianghua was startled, hurriedly jumped hard, jumped more than half a foot high, and then landed on the log, swaying left and right like dancing a few times, and finally stabilized his body dangerously.
At this moment, only to hear the sound of "plop", Xiao Ming in front of him suddenly fell straight into the deep ditch like a piece of iron, and instantly submerged into the water, opening his mouth to "coo" full of turbid water.
Li Xianghua was taken aback, and suddenly felt that his feet slipped again, and his body was crooked, and before he understood what was going on, his body fell headlong......
Xu Wenlong and the others on the other side were stunned, keeping their mouths open and maintaining various postures, and they didn't react for a long time.
Li Xianghua "exhaled" out of the water, opened his mouth and squirted out a mouthful of muddy water, took off the steel helmet that was buckled upside down on his eyes, shook his wet hair, and squinted at Xiao Ming, who was embarrassed.
It turned out that Xiao Ming, who was showing off his skills, did not expect to step on a deviation when he jumped high, driving the log to roll sideways. For a while, he lost his center of gravity and stood unsteadily, leaning over and falling straight into the ditch. When he fell, he instinctively grabbed the log with both hands, trying to stop the fall. But he didn't want to cause the log to roll again, and brought Li Xianghua, who had escaped the catastrophe, into the water together.
"Not bad, buddy!" Li Xianghua wiped the water droplets all over his head and face, and gave a thumbs up to "praise", "The 'pattern' of the uneven bars has a beautiful posture and light movements. The classic 'Shaw's flip', which is better than the 'Mohs flip', can be called the pioneer of gymnastics movements in the next century! ”
"Hey, hey, hey......" Xiao Ming was speechless, and said with a sad face, "Accident...... It was a pure accident......"
Liu Qiang, who was on the shore, leaned out half of his body, raised his hand and asked loudly, "How is it?" Are you all right? ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Xiao Ming hurriedly replied.
"yes, it's so cool here, you don't have this blessing to enjoy!" Li Xianghua looked at the slippery ditch wall, puffed out his eyes and said sullenly, "Don't you find a way to get us up." ”
Xu Wenlong took out a thin rope from his backpack, spliced it with the rope handed by Liu Qiang and Wang Dahai, threw it down, and shouted at the two "soup chickens" that were spinning around: "Hold on to the rope and climb up along the ditch wall." ”
The rope was very thin, the ditch wall was very slippery, and it was steep and straight, and it took a lot of effort for the three of them to drag Li Xianghua and Xiao Ming up.
Xu Wenlong collected the rope and looked at the two wet and embarrassed "difficult brothers" speechlessly.
Xiao Ming's face was red, his ears were red, and he was anxious to plunge into the cracks.
Li Xianghua exhaled, depressed, spread his hands and said helplessly: "Which brother is doing well, take off dry clothes and wear them!" ”
Crossing the single-plank bridge, the team members were hungry and beat their spirits, and under the severe reprimand of Instructor Yu, they kept climbing, running, and shooting on the training ground. From hill to hill, from trench to trench, magazines were changed one after another. The clothes were wet and dry, dry and wet. The top and bottom of his body are as dirty as mud monkeys, and he can't bear to look at them directly. The energy provided by that little tortilla had long since been exhausted, and the hunger and thirst combined with the overload of exercise had left everyone panting and exhausted, and they did not even have the strength to speak. I can't wait to lie on the ground and lie down for a long time, and sleep beautifully on his face!
