Chapter 37: Cliff Jumping

"Let's go, let's see our gear." Gong Ling smiled when she saw that Zhang Rongrong had recovered. On the top of the hill is actually a very large flat land, and in the middle of the flat land are two powered gliders and a parachute. Two people can sit in front of and behind the glider, which means that only four of them can fly the glider, and one person has to practice skydiving.

The safety of the glider should be much higher than that of a parachute jump, and the instructions are placed inside the glider. There is also a manual on the umbrella bag. Gong Ling asked, "Have any of you ever jumped the parachute?" Everyone shook their heads in confusion. They have only been on roller coasters and have never jumped an umbrella, and they hate the feeling of weightlessness.

No one jumped the parachute. This low-altitude skydive is really very dangerous for people who have not been exposed to professional training. If the loose package is not opened in the first three seconds of falling, then the consequence is that there is no time to open it again. The mountain is not too high, so there is not enough room to descend and wait for the umbrella bag to open. Feng Hui hesitated and said, "Why don't we draw lots." "No need to smoke, I'd better come, if you hadn't saved me just now, I wouldn't have been able to come back in a nightmare." Gong Ling said calmly and resolutely.

4 people all looked at the eyes of seniority, they saw the firmness inside, and 5 people knew everything in their hearts. "Since it's decided, don't bother." Yang Xi took Liu Yan, Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui to study the use of gliders. Gong Ling is studying skydiving alone. The glider is relatively simple, as long as you have a sufficient glide length, and then press the head up to slide, you can glide normally. It overcomes the resistance of the air, keeps rising and gliding in the air, and when the air resistance increases, it will slowly stop and descend to the ground.

Low-altitude skydiving is more dangerous, first of all, the angle of the starting point must be selected, and it must be able to ensure that you will fall all the way without being hung in mid-air; Secondly, the wind speed and direction need to be appropriate during take-off; Finally, choose when to open the parachute. When a skydiver jumps up, he will fall at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, which means he will drop 150 meters in 6 seconds, so the time left for the skydiver is quite limited.

The instructions are simple, there is always a gap between theory and practice, but it doesn't take long for them to train, which is the same as the bracelet says, to test their ability to learn quickly. To be honest, they were a little excited, because this was a challenge, a real challenge for them in extreme sports, they had never experienced it, everyone was eager to try, except for Gong Ling's expression, it was still very indifferent, as if he had long put life and death on the line, this was just a task, he just had to complete the answer sheet and hand it in.

Yang Xi and Liu Yan got on the glider. Yang Xi is in front, and Liu Yan is in the back. After the two of them put on their helmets, they were ready to start. With a loud boom, the glider was activated. Slide forward along the empty summit of the mountain.

10 meters, 20 meters, 50 meters, just when you are about to reach the edge of the cliff, the glider suddenly deviates to the left, and continues to slide to the left, and the left is also a cliff. Yang Xi and Liu Yan were in a hurry for a moment: "Stop, stop, which is the stop button." The glider, which had turned around the corner, could not stop, and continued to the left, avoiding the cliff on the left. Zhang Rongrong: What they saw was a glider, which became a toy plane spinning in place on the edge of a cliff.

Yang Xi and Liu Yan were already pale at the moment, and their entire clothes were soaked with cold sweat. They felt that 4 eyes were completely insufficient. They couldn't find that stop button. Two hands and two feet, don't know what to step on, don't know what to press? In a hurry, the scene of a car accident.

Finally, after they tried the keys countless times, one button finally worked. Like a duck choked by the throat, the glider gradually suppressed its voice and slowly stopped on the edge of the cliff. Yang Xi and Liu Yan were sitting on the chairs at the moment, extremely unwell. Suddenly, Liu Yan flew to the glider, ran to the ground on the side, and vomited, and after a while, Yang Xi also joined the vomiting team. This is a physiological response and there is no way to control it. Now they know that the glider is not so easy to maneuver.

Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui saw the whole process, and there was a lot of psychological shadow. They picked up the manual again and studied it carefully. After a while, after Yang Xi and Liu Yan eased up, they also followed them to pick up the manual and study it carefully. Here they can't rely on others, they can only rely on themselves.

It's the same with continuing to learn, when you don't have a teacher, all you have to do is learn on your own. Luckily, you have classmates to discuss with. Yang Xi and Liu Yan shared the lesson they had just learned from getting out of control with Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui. It turned out that they should have pressed the rise button when they were about to reach the edge of the cliff, but I don't know if it was because of nervousness or some other reason, they pressed the turn button, so the whole glider lost control and began to turn on the edge of the cliff, when Yang Xi did not continue to press the turn button, the glider would fall down the cliff on the left, so he could only desperately press the turn button, so the glider became like a toy plane spinning in place.

Failure is the wrong key! Luckily, they had a big life! At critical moments, Yang Xi was still able to make quick decisions and let the glider spin in place, as if they were falling off a cliff.

With the lesson of this failure, they decided to review all the keys again and practice them many times. So the two gliders drove round and round in the open space at the top of the mountain, and after hundreds of times, finally, everyone was very proficient in piloting. Except for the stretch and landing buttons, they could not practice, and they were like soldiers about to go to battle, checking their equipment again and again.

Because Yang Xi and Liu Yan already had a psychological shadow just now, this time they replaced Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui. The two got into the glider, sat down and put on their hard hats, and began a smooth start. The palms of both men were sweating, and unlike the practice, it was an official flight, and it was their first gliding. They can't guarantee that they will have good luck picking up a life like Yang Xi and Liu Yan, they can only succeed and cannot fail.

After starting, Zhang Rongrong steadily pressed a forward button, and the glider began to move forward smoothly. They need to accelerate slowly, very quickly when they get to the edge of the cliff. The palms of his hands began to sweat, and Feng Hui kept increasing his power. All I could hear was the roar of gliders.

There are also 100 meters, 80 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters, 10 meters, stretching...... Finally the glider waddled through the air, like a chick practicing to fly. On land is completely different from in the air, the glider needs to be manually steered. Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui felt that their hands trembled, the glider was too heavy, the two of them couldn't control it, the wings were swinging left and right, and the chick trembled and went up to the sky without the help of its mother. Gong Ling's heart had already risen to their throats, and this was obviously the rhythm of falling down.

Gong Ling shouted from the mountain: "Steady, steady!" Be steady! But Zhang Rongrong and they couldn't hear it at all, they only knew that they had used the best strength of their whole body now, and they didn't know how to balance the plane well. One moment the left side is high, and the other time the right side is low: "This won't work, Feng Hui, the two of us have to be steady, we hold down the joysticks on the left and right sides at the same time." ”

1-2-3, both of them held it down at the same time. The gliders finally seemed to be flattened, but they were greeted by a rapid ascent. The glider is about to rise in a straight line, let go, let go, let go. The two quickly let go, and the glider quickly turned its nose around and fell vertically downward. "Ahh Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui began to scream. "Pull it up, pull it up!" Finally, just before the crash, the two pulled the glider back to steady and gradually brushed the ground and began to prepare for landing.

The glider is still very heavy, and it is very difficult to control left and right. Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui are not skilled enough to cooperate, always high and low for a while. If two people operate in one direction at the same time, then the power is not well coordinated, causing the glider to constantly tilt left and right. Getting closer and closer to the ground. Because of the high speed, the left and right wheels began to alternate to hit the ground. The impact was very strong, and Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui were about to be thrown out of the glider.

The next time the wheels touched the ground, Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui quickly pressed the landing button. The loud sound of brakes and the grinding of the ground was unusual. Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui desperately pulled the sense of control, and there was not much distance in front of them for them to slide. In front of them is the woods, and if they don't stop, they will crash headlong into the woods, and the glider will crash into the trunk of the tree, and it must be a huge impact that will smash them to pieces!

They don't have time. Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui used all their strength to stop the glider, and at this time they really hoped that a divine dragon would come from the sky to help them pull the glider. All four hands were about to break the lever, and the body leaned back hard, and the trees around were all windy, but the glider still slid like a long sword breaking through the sky, and slid quickly into the woods. The long sword was still not stopped. Its blade was cruelly entwined with branches and trunks. Finally, after all its wings were broken, it stopped in the middle of the woods.

Zhang Rongrong and Feng Hui had already crashed into the woods, they all curled up and lowered their heads, their four hands still holding the joystick tightly, and their feet overlapping and stepping on the brakes. Around them was like a battlefield, from time to time branches fell from the sky, and leaves fell on them. Gliders are roofless. They're like two terrible clowns who perform badly on stage, smashed all over by rotten eggs and rotten eggplants.
