Chapter 16: The Riverside Competition

The second visitor was Yang Hao.

When I was a teenager, I was full of fantasies.

Since he knew Cheng Zhong, Yang Hao was firmly attracted by the sense of mystery in Cheng Zhong and wanted to get close to him and understand him.

In the past two days, he has made many trips to the tent hotel and the guard room of the three teams, but he has not seen the shadow of Cheng Zhong.

It's Saturday and school ends a little earlier than usual.

As soon as school ended, he trotted to the tent hotel.

When he arrived at the door, he heard Cheng Zhong's voice and broke in directly.

Meng Xu had just left, and Cheng Zhong was discussing with Xue Liancheng how to go to the grassland more naturally, and Yang Hao entered the tent.

"Brother Cheng, you're finally back, how is the case investigated? We're still waiting to play with you!" As soon as they met, Yang Hao shouted loudly.

"I have something important, I've been out for two days, how are a few friends?" asked Cheng Zhong.

"It's all good, let's talk about you together. Today, Saturday, I'll call them over later, let's hang out together. Yang Hao said.

When Cheng Zhong heard this, he was in the middle of it.

He hurriedly said:

"That's right! I'm fine now, and I want to introduce you to my little brother Snow Lotus Chengli by the way. ”

As he spoke, he pulled Xue Liancheng to his side and introduced the two of them.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Hao disappeared as soon as he slipped away.

Ten minutes later, the sound of "chirping" sounded outside the tent.

Cheng Zhong pulled Xue Liancheng to the outside of the tent.

It's still the original team that met for the first time.

Several teenagers surrounded Cheng Zhong and Xue Lian Cheng in the middle, arguing together, all rushing to speak, but they couldn't hear what the other party was saying.

"Please be quiet and listen to Brother Cheng!" Yang Hao shouted loudly.

"Children, my little brother Xue Liancheng is known to everyone.

I have a proposal now, if there is anything interesting in the grassland near you, you can take the two of us to play. Cheng Zhong said.

"About five miles to the northwest, there is an old castle, which is a good place to hide and seek. One child said.

"There is a river in the northeast, the water is very small in winter, and now it should be completely frozen, and there are a lot of colorful stones by the river, but it is beautiful, and we go to that place to compete and throw stones. Another child said.

"The river is not far from here, do you want to ride a horse?" asked Cheng Zhong.

"Of course we would have been fine on horseback, but we don't have horses. Yang Hao said.

"Then go on horseback. We now have three horses here, and Xue Liancheng can go to those friends and borrow another one. We are light, two people and one horse are fine. ”

Cheng Zhong said as he gestured to Xue Liancheng.

Xue Liancheng quickly ran away.

The reason why he proposed to ride a horse was that Cheng Zhong thought that if he encountered danger, he could escape as soon as possible.

Let Xue Liancheng go to find the horse, and you can inform Meng Xu of them by the way......

A group of teenagers tugged and jumped on the horse.

That's seven people in total.

Cheng Zhong originally wanted to ride alone, but Xue Liancheng didn't want to be with others, so Cheng Zhong had to ride a horse with Xue Liancheng, but Yang Hao rode alone.

After only twenty minutes of running, you can already see the river.

Sure enough, as the children said.

The frozen riverbed sparkles like a giant pearl necklace in the winter sunset, flanked with red, blue, yellow and green stones.

The shiny ice and brightly colored stones are beautiful.

Cheng Zhong was intoxicated by this beautiful grassland wonder, and didn't want to ride the horse too quickly, so he dismounted with Xue Liancheng in the distance, leading the horse and walking forward slowly.

The other children were unaware of it, beating their horses and rushing across the glacier, and the horses' hooves passed everywhere, and the ice splashed, and the stones rolled, and there was laughter.

After crossing the river, the children jumped off their horses and began collecting pebbles suitable for throwing.

Cheng Zhong and Xue Lian Cheng finally crossed the river.

They led the horses under a leeward slope and tied the reins of the four horses together.

The two men were also looking for stones by the river, but they picked up much less than the children.

The rules of throwing in the competition are actually very simple, that is, whoever uses the stone picks it up, throws it as many times as you want, and the one who throws the farthest wins.

In Cheng Zhong's hometown, the same is true.

In throwing, of course, the decisive role is the amount of strength, mainly waist strength and arm strength.

But there are certain tricks in it.

First of all, there is a point in choosing stones.

The pebbles are too big and too heavy, and they must not be thrown far, and the pebbles are too small and too light, so they can't be thrown far.

Secondly, the shape of the stone is also particular.

The more round and smooth the stone, the less resistance. On the contrary, if there are angular stones, the resistance will be greater.

Third, the angle of the throw is also particular.

The best angle is to throw diagonally upwards 45 degrees to reach the maximum distance......

The children ran together and stopped more than thirty meters from the riverbed.

Yang Hao: There was a small pile of stones behind each of them.

Cheng Zhong only prepared three stones.

Snow lotus into less, only prepared two beautiful green stones.

He clasped the two round green stones in his hands and kept playing with them like "fitness balls".

Yang Hao took out a large handful of white lime from his pocket, faced the riverbed, and drew a white line in front of everyone.

This is the starting line, and if anyone is throwing at the moment, stepping on the line or crossing the line is considered a violation.

Yang Hao is a careful person, when he passed by the white ash factory just now, he got off the horse and loaded the white lime.

The children began to take off their cotton and leather robes and take turns to fight.

Cheng Zhong observed the surrounding movements, and there seemed to be a figure shaking, but he didn't know whether it was friend or foe, so he simply ignored it.

Xue Liancheng sat on the ground far away from everyone, continuing to play with the two green stones, her eyes sometimes looking at Cheng Zhong, sometimes looking into the distance.

It seems that the lively game has nothing to do with him.

The five children threw several rounds one after the other.

Because of the river as a reference, the children's grades can be seen at a glance.

The youngest one threw the stone that never reached the river, and it was still four or five meters away from the riverbed.

There were three children's stones, all of which were thrown into the riverbed, but the distance was different each time.

The best results are naturally none other than Yang Hao.

Every time he threw a stone, it would cross the riverbed and fall seven or eight meters away from the other bank.

After a while, the five children were already tired and sweaty, and they didn't want to vote anymore, so they got dressed one after another and looked at Cheng Zhong and Xue Liancheng in the distance.

Cheng Zhong took off his cotton clothes, picked up a stone, and swiped it twice in his hand.

After that, he bent down and rushed out sideways, stopping in front of the white line.

The right arm, which was low behind him, suddenly flicked, drawing a graceful arc diagonally upward.

A stone came out of its hand, and it shot into the sky like an arrow.

Yang Hao and the other children raised their heads in unison, staring at the stone that first rose into the air and then rushed forward until the stone fell to the other side of the bank.

When the stone hit the ground, they couldn't help but let out an exclamation of "ahhhh

"Brother Cheng is really born with divine power! Compared to you, we are simply compared to a sparrow and an eagle!" Yang Hao said in a tone full of envy.

"Brother Cheng's throw may be more than 100 meters. It's so far away that it's impossible to cross the river and find the rock!" said the other child.

The other children also expressed their feelings.

Listening to their discussion and looking at their expressions, Cheng Zhong shook his head nonchalantly and said:

"Well, it's actually not difficult, I practiced it when I was herding sheep in my hometown, as long as you practice more, you can throw it far. ”

Hearing Cheng Zhong being repeatedly complimented by everyone from afar, Xue Liancheng was also interested.

He walked over and said:

"Seeing how much fun you guys are having, I want to try it too. ”

He didn't take off his robe, he didn't run, he just came to stand in front of the white line.

Then put his hands together, put a green stone in his palm, close his eyes and bow his head, and muttered words in his mouth.

After a minute's pause, his eyes suddenly widened, his body grew violently, and his right hand flung out like lightning.

The green stone cut through the sky, like a falcon that lunged up and glided forward, crossed the creek, and drifted away as if it had escaped gravity.

Under the sunset, everyone's vision was restricted, and no one saw the stones fall to the ground.

The people who were shocked by Cheng Zhong just now were once again impressed by Xue Liancheng's divine skills.

It was as if they had met a god, their expressions were confused, and their souls flew out of the sky.

Several children looked at Xue Liancheng with extremely admiring eyes, and they almost didn't bow down.

Tibetan people believe in gods and Buddhas and worship heroes, and this cultural gene has been deeply rooted in the blood of children.

Cheng Zhong had already heard that the ten people who came to the farm town with him were all masters of Tibet.

For Xue Liancheng's ability, Cheng Zhong had an estimate in his heart, but seeing it with his own eyes today was still unexpected.

He stepped forward, hugged Xue Liancheng's shoulders tightly, and sighed sincerely:

"Brother Xue's small body can hold such a huge amount of energy! Compared to our brothers, we are all just frogs at the bottom of a well. In the future, if I have the opportunity, please teach me a lesson. ”

"I ...... I was just...... A martial artist, said Master Sanchi...... Little brother is ...... Destiny 'noble', I ...... I ......"

Hearing Cheng Zhong say this, Xue Liancheng was very flustered and anxious to express it, but it seemed that the words did not reach the meaning, so she could only bow to Cheng Zhong again and again, and tears were about to come out.

Cheng Zhong didn't know what to do, so he had to hold Xue Liancheng's hands tightly and said:

"Alright, alright, don't worry. You are extraordinary, and it is normal for people to worship you. It doesn't matter if I'm a 'noble' or not, the important thing is that we will always be good brothers!"

At this time, the sun is setting, and the sunset turns the glacier into a dazzling golden orange.

The magic hand of nature has changed the scenery here again, and it is as magical as a dream.

A throwing contest is over.

Cheng Zhong and the children were full of excitement, and for the first time, they experienced the truth of "there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the people".

Cheng Zhong saw that it was getting late, and said to his companions:

"That's it for today, and tomorrow we'll go back to the old castle. ”
