Vaudeville? Abilities? Light power floating on the water?!

Ooh!

Wang Jin was stunned, and his eyeballs almost didn't fly out.

In the early days, some mining environments were remote and could not find suitable ways to transport timber, but the difficulties had to be solved, so people used their ingenuity and adapted measures to local conditions, and put the wood into the river to float outside, so as to save labor.

If the flow rate is right and the topography is familiar enough, the master can stand firmly on the wood to "navigate", maintain balance with the help of simple bamboo poles, and float far away in one go.

Standing rafting is a spectacle created by labor, and it is also the origin of "log running", Xiao Wang has never seen any logging competition, of course he will be shocked. To this day, there are still similar situations in our country for transportation or performances, but they are also on the verge of extinction.

"Hee-ha, hee-hee!"

Andy winked at Wang Jin, "Awesome, right?" Wake up and get to know the short-term instructor I hired for you, the real lumberjack, my old neighbor, Mr. Dave! Mr. Dave, 59 years old, has been in the limelight on the logging tour! ”

Dave?

Crazy Dave? Strange Millet in Plants vs. Zombies?

For a moment, Wang Jin immediately thought of many messy game screens, such as buying and selling, and releasing tasks......

"Mr. Dave, can you come here?"

"Andy? Hey! ”

Old Dave was a little distracted, and the soles of his feet couldn't keep up with the speed of the log's rotation, and he "poofed" into the water. Funnily enough, he didn't forget to lift his cigar high in the middle of his busy schedule for emergency rescue.

Belch......

The cowboy hat fell off and he was soaking wet, and Dave got up and walked over to the brothers, and instead of slapping water, he smugly blew a puff of green smoke.

This fat uncle has a funny goatee and a ruddy and kind face, giving people a feeling that they are easy to get close to.

"How are you, sir?"

"Yes, hello young man!"

Dave let go of Wang Jin's palm and said to Andy, "I guess, this is the student you mentioned, Wang Jin of China, right?" ”

Andy smiled: "That's right, old neighbor, please teach me your skills, he needs your help." ”

"Well, he looks very athletic, he should be a quick learner." Dave looked the young man up and down, and the second-hand smoke of ecstasy soared, directly enveloping Wang Jin in the haze.

Choking!

Wang Jin took two steps back, rubbed his eyes and coughed: "Thank you, sir, I must, cough cough, study hard......"

Dave waved his palm to the side, "Please take a look, which project do you like to start from?" ”

Wang Jin, a shrewd sports expert, clearly saw that running on a log could improve his balance and improve his coordination, and he couldn't help but be interested and curious about other sports.

A large area has been cleared out of the riverbank, and a dozen wooden segments are fixed with various triangular supports, which are as thick as buckets, long and short, some are placed horizontally, some vertically, and are estimated to be used for felling.

Lumberjacks, don't you cut wood?

Wang Jin continued to scan in the direction of Dave's finger, and found that there were still tools such as chainsaws, axes, and ropes on the ground, with a wide variety of varieties.

Wait, that's?

it!

the groove!

When Wang Jin saw the last "artifact", his jaw fell directly!

Depend on!

- Who has ever seen a "super invincible" large hand saw that is 20 centimeters wide and nearly 3 meters long? Look at that exaggerated wooden handle, look at that terrible sawtooth, isn't this a piece of equipment in the game? Too domineering, too mystical fantasy bird!

In view of the fact that Wang Jin did not speak for a long time, Old Dave took the initiative to speak: "You must be entangled, but it doesn't matter, we are familiar with each other the same." Tell me, young man, do you know how to climb trees? ”

Tree climbing is an unpopular sport, but Mr. Wang was born in the countryside, and since he was a child, he likes to pick peaches, steal bird eggs, and catch golden cicadas.

Belch......

"I won't!"

Turning his head and casually looking at the nearby trees, each one is more awesome than the other, the corner of Wang Jin's mouth twitched.

It's so hard to even hold it, how can I get on?!

"That's okay, as long as you're confident enough, come with me......"

Dave Sr. has already prepared the right target. The redwood he chose resembled a giant umbrella, with a smooth trunk as thick as a water tank, and almost no branches at the bottom of more than 20 meters, and he didn't know how many years it had grown.

Old Dave fastened the harness that had fallen from the tree around his waist, then wrapped a large rope around the trunk, went around his back and out of his armpits, and finally hooped into a loop.

"Watch out!"

Gripping the rope with both hands, old Dave exclaimed, "I'm getting started!" ”

He threw the rope high, set it, and pulled it, and jumped up in the air with the help of the force of the pull, leaned back, and "squatted" steadily on the trunk.

"With the soles of your feet in place, you have to lean back as much as possible so that you can easily get a firm pull and make yourself safer!"

One set, one pull, one jump, one set, one pull, one jump, old Dave is more flexible than a monkey, he "snapped" alternately to rise, and in the blink of an eye, he soared out of more than ten meters.

Belch......

Wang Jin put down his head and tilted his head, petrified on the spot!

Strength, coordination, courage, and psychological stability are all indispensable, and Uncle Dave once again subverted his perception of the elderly! It's hard to imagine that people are almost 60 years old this year.

"Woo-yo."

Old Dave landed quickly and said lightly, "Actually, there are more convenient 'spikes' for climbing trees now, but those things are convenient and convenient, but they are not suitable for you to exercise your skills...... Go ahead and give it a try! ”

Wang Jin took a deep breath, rubbed his hands and said, "Okay." ”

In many cases, challenges are a sign of gains, and there is no fear in his dictionary.

Imitating Dave's shape and drawing a gourd, Wang Jin recalled the details, put on the safety rope, and jumped to the trunk of the tree.

"Smack! Woo ......"

Wang has been trained for a long time, and his coordination and jumping ability are undoubtedly far beyond ordinary people, perhaps to blame him for being too heavy, and the angle of leaning back is not big enough, and he actually slipped and didn't squat on the first jump, and almost hit his face.

Old Dave reminded: "Don't worry, slowly, your body should be curled up tighter, and your feet should be opened a little more!" Calm down, young man, let's do it again. ”

"Yes sir!"

"Smack!" "Wow!" "Smack!" "Wow!"

Wang Jin adjusted the details of the tree three times, and finally successfully adapted to the rhythm and found the happy feeling of climbing. He climbed swiftly and sensitively, and went straight to the heights one by one.

Wow, how fresh is the air up there......

Admiring the distant river from a bird's-eye view, the silver ribbon was winding and sparkling, and Wang Jin was intoxicated.

"Hmm."

Coach Dave commented, "It's okay, so-so, if you can climb to 18 meters in 10 seconds, then you will pass!" ”

Wang: "......"

It's stressful!

The threshold for lumberjacks is so high, how do you let other industries mix?

Next, at Wang Jin's strong request, their second chosen subject was "Super Handsaw".

Old Dave said that the vertical sections of wood should be cut with an axe, and the horizontal sections should be prepared for hand saws. Andy helped lift the handsaw and put it on the crossbar, allowing Wang Jin to hold the wooden handle tightly and form a "lunge" posture.

"Saw!"

Old Dave ordered.

"Phew!"

Wang Jin pulled hard, and the saw blade did not go deep into the wood as expected, but instead occurred the phenomenon of "running saw", and jumped to the side comically.

"Hahaha, it's not good......"

Dave Sr.'s nostrils were dilated, his shoulders jerked violently, and Andy was even more exaggerated, snorting snot bubbles with pleasure, and he couldn't breathe.

"As for you? I'm just not familiar enough! Wang Jin muttered with black lines on his head.

"The tooth is parallel to the wood, first pushing, then pulling, and before it gets sawed in, you have to maintain an even and deep force, pushing and pulling, pushing and pulling, pulling as far as possible to the outside of the body...... Do it! ”

"Understood, sir!"

"Phew!"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

With the guidance of professionals, it is convenient to do anything, Wang Jin got started quickly, and after a while, he gradually got into a better situation, and sawdust flew.

"Hurry up, hurry up, come on!"

"Snor......t"

Pulling the big saw is similar to training resistance bands, Wang Jin erupted wildly, and it didn't take long for the blood vessels in his arms to bulge, and he felt obvious soreness. It was a good opportunity to exercise, and he gritted his teeth and continued to push and pull.

"Smack!"

The piece of wood was finally pierced by a handsaw, and a thick section fell off the front end.

"yes, I made it!" Wang Jin waved his fist in celebration.

Old Dave looked down at his watch, expressionless: "Congratulations boy, your time is thirty-nine seconds." ”

Wang Jin gasped and asked, "How do you compare with you?" ”

"Well, this score can barely reach the average level in the amateur senior group......" Old Dave pursed his lips with pity in his eyes.

What's the horse?

Wang Jin was insulted and unconvinced, "How is it possible?" Sir, what is your record in the competition? I'm asking about your youth! ”

Old Dave said lightly: "When you were young? A week ago I was thirty-one seconds eighty-five. ”

Wang Jin: "......"

Next, they continued to familiarize themselves with the rest of the subjects, such as cutting thin slices with a chainsaw, splitting wooden stakes quickly, throwing axes out and slashing distant targets, and so on.

To be sure, the logging training method is a lot of fun, with varying degrees of exercise in wrist strength, endurance, explosiveness, and even coordination, and is of great practical value.

Finally, Dave took Wang Jin into the river and stood in front of the log he had longed for.

"As a rookie, you can't spin on the wood, you have to be like a baby and learn to stand up and keep your balance. When we have a firm footing, we will increase the difficulty. Old Dave said distressedly throwing away the cigar butt.

Wang Jin is a childish ghost.

He recalled the image of people pulling the wind when they met, and his head was inexplicably hot, so he had to experience a "flying rush".

"That can't be." Old Dave insisted, "You have to take it step by step and follow the laws of nature!" ”

Student Wang began to brag violently: "Sir, you can ask Andy buddy, my balance ability is the best in the entire training camp, no one can compare!" No, it's the Earth Invincible! All you have to do is lift me up to the log, and I'll be able to run!" ”

Old Dave rolled his eyes, stared at Andy and said, "Is he serious?" I remember you said that employers are young but smart enough, and now I'm a little skeptical. I ask for the banknote to be paid as soon as possible and settled on the same day! ”

Andy: "......"

Wang Jin: "......"

Old Dave said in an accentuated tone, "Are you sure you still want to try?" ”

Wang Jin nodded.

Old Dave showed a self-seeking expression: "Okay. ”

Wang Jin was happy to move the color, his mood instantly became very bright, he grabbed Andy's palm at the moment, stepped on the middle of the log with a little bit of strength, he stretched his arms straight and spread, imitated the tightrope posture to adjust the center of gravity, swayed, trembled, and then actually stood still!

"Haha, I said I was a genius! I think I can pedal the wood as fast as an electric fan! ”

Old Dave said, "Please start your show......"

"Hmm!"

Wang Jin immediately pulled out his legs and started running, and the thick log sank hard in the water, and then spun wildly with the force of the pedal, turning faster and faster! The more the wood turned, the happier Wang Jin became!

Old Dave silently counted: "Three, two, one!" ”

"Poof!"

"Huh? What's going on? Running well? Gentlemen, please let me try again! ”

"Poof!"

"I don't believe in this evil anymore, come again!"

"Poof!"

"Ahh......h Again! ”

"Poof......

When he went back in the evening, Andy deliberately asked, "Man, how do you feel after the run?" ”

Wang Jin touched the newly bulging big bag on his head, and his eyes wandered: "The river water over there is not delicious, too salty......"
