Chapter 54: Jumping Ship to Survive
Chu Xin, the elder brother in Chu Gui's mouth, is standing at the head of the white team at the moment, and the clothes on his body are also a little different from others, and he can see at a glance that he is the leader of the white team.
I saw that he had a face similar to that of Chu Guiren, only more burly.
looked very high-spirited, but his eyes were the same as Chu Guiren's, and he always carried three points of mockery.
It is worthy of being a biological brother and sister!
Looking at the behavior of the two of them, you can probably see what the discipline in this house is like!
In today's dragon boat team, the white team is all from the northwest, and more or less their fathers and brothers have some official positions in the northwest army.
Therefore, they are bound to succeed or fail today!
Chu Xin is now twenty-five years old, the oldest of all, and he has already made a name for himself in the Northwest Army, so he is the leader, and no one doubts it.
So I saw that Chu Xin was standing on the dragon boat of the white team, and he raised his arms and shouted.
"Sons of the Northwest!"
"In!"
"We have to behave well today, so that the emperor can see our ability! It is not disgraceful to the cultivation of the Northwest Hou! ”
"Yes!"
The white team was the first to open their mouths, and the rest of the teams did not lend themselves and shouted slogans.
The scene became more and more lively, and everyone had excitement and excitement on their faces.
It's just that only Lin Xingzhi and Jiang Huanqing are incompatible in it.
One of them came to see his sister, and the other came to accompany his brother to see his sister, so their thoughts were naturally different from others.
However, unlike Lin Xingzhi's situation where his eyes are full of sisters, Jiang Huanqing is not very old, but he is very old-fashioned.
Chu Xin's face that hated to let everyone in the world know his ability fell in Jiang Huanqing's eyes, which was really blind.
rolled his eyes, and immediately pulled Lin Xingzhi and said.
"Brother Hesong, hurry up and prepare, isn't your sister also watching from above, look at the confident appearance of other people's brothers, you want to know how big his sister's face is in the palace!"
Although Jiang Huanqing had never entered the palace, he understood the things in the palace clearly between his words.
So this exit reminder is all about the key.
Lin Xingzhi glanced at him and felt that this was very right, so he looked at Lin Wanyi's direction and nodded, and then began to practice.
Although he and Jiang Huanqing were both arranged halfway, they were not lazy at all in the process of training.
Otherwise, the two of them would not have been sunburned.
The youth team doesn't say much, and of course the strength is not the best among the eight teams, and it is not the favorite to win the championship.
But because of this, they don't have any competitive baggage, so they are all very calm.
While the other teams were still shouting slogans, the members of the youth team were already sitting in the dragon boat.
Close your eyes and breathe and focus on the waves and the oars.
Such calmness fell in the eyes of the emperor and the fourth prince.
I saw that both of them squinted, looking at the incompatibility of the green team, and there was a little more smile in their eyes.
The reason why the four princes were invited over today was to screen recruits for the Imperial Army.
Like the white team, who has long been in the Northwest Army, the fourth prince has no plan at all, and the most taboo thing he is about leading the troops is to be too prominent and think very highly of himself.
So when I saw those people who were bouncing around a lot, I crossed it at a glance.
But the actions of the youth team made him look at it twice, and he didn't know what the results would be like if he was so focused?
The war drums sounded, and everyone sat down in the dragon boat, ready to go.
Compared with the inevitable victory of Chu Xin and others, Lin Xingzhi was more calm.
For him, how to cooperate with his teammates to make the dragon boat move forward more steadily is the most important.
So when the order fell, the whole youth team showed extreme harmony and cooperation.
The slogans shouted in the mouth were also uniform.
The drummer sitting in front of him was unmoved, and concentrated on beating the drum of his own dragon boat.
And the paddlers were distracted, staring at the rhythm of the drummer.
Hey, hey, hey!
The dragon boats below rowed towards the finish line, and the white team was naturally the first to rush out, followed by the red team.
The speed at which the two teams go hand in hand, and they can't wait to leave each other behind.
However, the youth team only ranked third, and as for the other teams, they were a little slow at the beginning, so they were already half a hull behind the halfway point of the trip, and they lacked the skills to return to the sky.
Chu Xin sat at the front of the dragon boat, he was both the leader and the first person to paddle.
His rhythm is crucial.
When practicing on weekdays, everyone also follows his rhythm.
But today, the oarsmen sitting in the red team were also unwilling to admit defeat, and when they came up, they accelerated the pace of the oars, so the hull of the boat slightly exceeded that of the white team.
Chu Xin looked at it, where can he still sit still.
With a loud roar, he ignored the drum beat and accelerated on his own, but this time the rhythm of the entire dragon boat was disrupted.
The person behind didn't react and followed the scribble.
Seeing that the speed of the oars was inconsistent, the dragon boat naturally slowed down.
It's like a person who is running with all his might, and suddenly his hands and feet are uncoordinated, and he will naturally fall.
The white team saw that they were one stone's throw behind the red team all of a sudden, how could Chu Xin tolerate such a situation!
In a fit of rage, he shouted at the people behind him.
"Are they all blind? Paddle! ”
The others had seen this kind of scene, and they were so frightened by Chu Xin, who had already killed the red-eyed Chu Xin, that they almost couldn't hold the oar in their hands and fell into the water.
Seeing that the land of one arrow is gradually becoming half of the hull, let alone winning the championship, I am afraid that it will be at the bottom.
Chu Guiren, who was leaning on the railing, had already turned pale, and shouted to the people below, regardless of the occasion.
"Brother, hurry up!"
As soon as she came out, the other palace concubines and clan relatives who also had family members on the dragon boat also shouted, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
At this moment, the youth team is like a bamboo, quickly heading towards the finish line.
And the red team is not far behind, from the above point of view, slightly earlier than the green team.
Chu Xin saw that he couldn't win the championship, so he swiped the oars and created a scene where the boat overturned and people fell into the water.
By the way, he also broke the stern of the red team.
The red team, which lost its balance, suddenly became chaotic with the drumbeat, and it also swirled in the lake, implicating the purple team and the blue team next to it.
"Oops."
The RED team's hull had a terrible draft, and the water poured through the hole in the stern.
And the people who sat in it, all of them had weight, so the water was added faster.
After a while, I had to jump ship to survive.
A good dragon boat race, halfway through the race, but full of people and cross-cutting boats.
Chu Xin looked at the front with a burning face.
Soon, a dragon boat broke through the finish line.
The crowd in the stands burst into cheers!
