Chapter Ninety-One: Rock Climbing
Behind the book to Jiaoyue, what is painted is a crescent moon, and Mi Qiao has never seen the moon, so she asks curiously; The superstars she had ever seen had their whole faces gliding across the horizon, without such a crescent moon shape.
Similarly, Jiaoyue also stared at the pattern behind Mi Qiao and asked, "Master, is there a branch painted on my sister's clothes?" ”
"No, it's lightning. Hasn't there ever been lightning here? Shukang asked.
"I've never seen it. Is lightning also in the sky? Jiaoyue then asked.
"Yes! In the sky, no, it should be said, in the atmosphere. "Shu Kang feels uncanny about this world without lightning.
After being curious about clothes, the moon and lightning, the master and apprentice were guided by the light pillar of the mobile phone flashlight, and walked forward along the road for about half an hour, talking and laughing, and finally saw the "rockery" and "five-story pavilion" that the passer-by said.
The light over there is bright enough, especially the edge lighting of the five-story pavilion, which makes the graceful shape of the pavilion particularly eye-catching in the night. Shu Kang also turned off the flashlight lighting function of the mobile phone, carefully installed it, pulled the zipper, and the target ahead: gazebo!
At this point, although there is not even a bird to see on the road, but the pavilion and rockery are full of tourists, which is also strange.
"It seems that I'm not the only one who is 'full of food'! There are so many more like-minded people here, haha! From these laughing and happy people, Shu Kang saw what it means to be "peaceful and prosperous", such a popular place, it is really reassuring.
Seeing that it is almost to the rockery, the stone seed hardened road under the feet seems to have become a kind of semi-soft river mud-like soft "cotton road", every step up, will sink half a foot first, without the reaction force, walking forward, become much more laborious, so that the forward is very inefficient.
This is a very strange feeling, that is, every time you kick, you can't correctly estimate your weight, and how to act next to be safe, and the soft mud road here is always a danger that will be sucked down at any time.
"Be careful!" When Shukang turned around and reminded the two beloved apprentices, he found out that he was negligent, only caring about drawing sweatshirts and pants, and forgot to paint shoes.
"Stop, you two wait a minute!" Shu Kang stopped the trio, took out the wooden hairpin again, quickly drew two pairs of sports outdoor running shoes, and set the time limit at 48 hours at the same time.
After changing into new shoes, the two sisters really walked a lot faster, and of course the book would not fall, and the three of them accelerated their pace towards the rockery covered with a five-story pavilion that was getting bigger and bigger.
When I finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, I saw that there were two ways up the mountain, one was to follow the stone steps, along the spiral staircase of the pavilion, and climb up layer by layer; The other is a separate road from the side rockery that is full of marked paths that can be directly climbed by hands and feet, obviously, the detour is easy to walk, but it is far; The straight road is difficult to climb, but close.
Shu Kang saw that most of the tourists were queuing up there, huddled into a lump and slowly circled up; However, she and the two apprentices decided at the same time to take the path and climb vertically along the mountain path.
It's not to be afraid of too many people and save time, it's really this rare climbing route, so that a "rock climbing" master, how can he not have the heart to experience and conquer?
How long has it been since you practiced your skills? Shu Kang remembered the last experience in the Tiankeng in Guangxi, although she almost lost her life, but the feeling of finally crawling out of the Tiankeng "escaped death" made her excited every time she thought about it.
Here, compared to the slippery and wide sinkhole, there is another challenge: softness.
Similar to the feeling of the soft base road just now, this small mountain bag, although it is hardcore, but the skin, is like the texture of a kind of puff pastry hard chocolate ice cream: I can't tell how deep this layer of "puff pastry" is, you can catch the hard force point that is enough to bear the load, every time you go down, it is deeply rooted in a pile of soft soil, and then you can pick out some hard rocks, and then use your hands to feel the shape of the stone, judge its texture, and then give it your life.
This kind of deep digging picking, stepping on, and guessing the ascending route has turned this piece into a playground: because there are constantly people who can't catch it from above and slide down, and they have to avoid it quickly, otherwise it will be a kind of end.
While slowly trying to climb up, while carefully guarding against the fall of the "forerunner", Shu Kang felt that every cell in his body was extremely excited.
The two apprentices looked like they had climbed such a mountain for the first time, and they both looked very clumsy, and they looked like they had never practiced "rock climbing".
Every time I plunge deep into it, the feeling that the whole arm and palm are all wrapped is amazing, and it is a little laborious when inserted, and when I pull it out, the skin is even more moist and white, as if I am doing a kind of "dry cleaning" for my hands, this experience is unprecedented.
However, no matter how fun it is to penetrate and pull out, once the hard core inside is not grasped, and the foot slips again, the previous efforts will be wasted, and the decline will be uncontrollable. However, the fun is here, and the more people slide down, the more they want to rush up, and the stronger the willingness to conquer this slippery mountain trail.
Failed several times, this time closest to the top of the hill! However, there was an elevation angle of almost 120 degrees, and the whole person had to hang, and he could only rely on shaking to send the focus of the other hand to the edge of the rock protruding above the inflection point.
This is the time when technique and endurance are most tested.
Shu Kang carefully judged the only possible route several times, and then turned his body sideways, and his core muscles tightened, only to be able to climb the protruding position with his right hand and right foot at the same time as he threw it hard at the last time.
The closer she got to the top, the harder the rock became, and the loose skin of the front section was very small, which gave her the confidence to make this final crucial jump.
Breathe well! Shu Kang has practiced the action in his heart several times in his heart, and transmitted the corresponding strength to the exertion of his limbs, and then began to chant silently in his heart: "3, 2, 1 jump!" ”
The two apprentices below have already slipped back to the original point for the Nth time, so they have to be at the bottom, staring at the master who is conquering the most thrilling corner of the top with envy and adoration with their faces, a beautiful aerial leap, and it succeeded!
The two of them couldn't help but cheer loudly for the master at the bottom!
"The master is amazing! Amazing, amazing! ”
Shu Kang beckoned from the top to the bottom, looked at the two apprentices who were still in place, shook his head, and then took out the wooden hairpin......
