Chapter 44: Self-Learning
"You look like you're excited."
Xiahou Yue caught up with Su Ji, and her appearance attracted a lot of attention.
"I love swimming." Sudy paused and said, "I love water. ”
"Don't be ashamed." Xia Houyue said with a small nose wrinkled, "I like swimming so much, I like water so much, why didn't I want to ask you to come out to swim before." ”
Su Ji wanted to speak and stopped, but he really didn't know where to start, so he could only shut up.
"Okay, let's not talk about those things." Xiahou Yue looked at the Tangjiang River, there are still few people swimming here at this time period, and when the children get out of school later, the adults will bring the children to swim, and there will be more people at that time, so it will be difficult to swim, "You have called my sister...... Let me teach you how to swim. ”
"Hurry up." Suji said he really couldn't wait.
"Good, good." Xiahou Yue said that she took off her slippers and put them on the shore and walked into the water, walked to Su Ji's side, thought about it, bent down and put her hands together and poured a puddle of water on her body, "First of all, pour some water on your body like I did, and then slap it...... Warm up and get used to it so you don't get cramps when you wait to get in the water. ”
Su Ji has learned a lot.
"What's next...... You have to learn to dive breathlessly. Xia Houyue doesn't quite remember what he read on the Internet not long ago, mainly because there is no unified answer to his own statement, and now he is confused, "You can try to close your eyes first, pinch your nose, and then squat in the water......"
"You take this diving goggle and earplugs first, and I'll show you a demonstration."
Xiahou Yue handed over the diving goggles and earplugs, Su Ji could only continue, and then saw her pinching her nose, taking a deep breath, her cheeks bulging, and then closing her eyes and squatting into the water.
Xia Houyue stood up, because he was wearing a swimming cap, his hair would not get in the way, just wipe it and wipe off the water droplets on his face, and said, "You know how to do it...... You can wear the diving goggles and earplugs I gave you. ”
"I don't think I need these things." Su Ji returned the diving goggles and earplugs to Xiahou Yue, took a breath, closed his eyes and squatted into the water.
After a day of sun exposure, the river water was very warm, and Su Ji, who was immersed in the water, did not feel afraid, on the contrary, he felt very relieved.
Su Ji slowly opened his eyes in the water...... It turns out that the underwater world is like this.
Although the water in this natural swimming pool is very clear, which is why people love to swim here, the distance that can be seen from the water is still very close, hazy and shaky in all directions, accompanied by the rumbling sound of water in the ears.
Su Ji narrowed his eyes and looked up at the water sparkling in the sunlight.
Gradually, the world became clear in his eyes, his hands could see clearly, then the river pebbles at the bottom of the river, the bruises on the river pebbles became clear, the gravel flew in the water, and then the swimming fish, which he recognized as the white striped fish and the slate fish.
The world in the water is wonderful.
Su Ji didn't know how long he had been watching, and he stood up with exhaustion, feeling a little lost inexplicably. He didn't know if his eyes had changed shape, so he immediately turned his face away after finding Xia Houyue looking at his face, he was worried that she would find out that his eyes were abnormal.
Xiahou Yue noticed Su Ji's strange behavior and said, "How is it?" ”
"It's a little uncomfortable for the eyes." Su Ji rubbed his eyes and lowered his head as he spoke.
"You just opened your eyes in the water?" Xiahou Yue asked.
"That's right."
"Remarkable."
Su Ji smiled.
He could now be sure that his eyes also had the function of diving goggles, but because he had already guessed and was convinced that he had this ability, he was not too excited now.
"So let's start swimming now?"
"Yes." Su Ji looked up, he was sure that his eyes were back to normal.
"Then come over here." Xiahou Yue said and walked towards the deep water area until the river stopped under her thighs, and then stretched out two hands towards Su Ji, "Grab my hand, and then ...... What is the best way to say it...... Keep your legs off the ground and float yourself......"
When Xiahou Yue was distressed, Su Ji said, "You let me try it myself." ”
"Do you want to try swimming yourself?" Xiahou Yue asked.
"Yes." Su Ji said, "I don't think it's difficult. ”
"If you don't think it's difficult, then try it." Xiahou Yue thought for a while and said, "But it can only be in the shallow water area, not in the past, it is a deep water area...... I heard that I used to dig sand, and it was a big pit. I'm afraid you'll drown, and I don't have the ability to save you. ”
Xia Houyue has a deep understanding of his swimming level, and he can only say that he can, far from being proficient, and even diving needs diving goggles. Although the way to save the drowning person is known, such as only pushing the drowning person from behind, otherwise it will be dangerous for both people to be entangled by the drowning person, but it is also known.
Su Ji looked around and said, "There are so many people swimming here, there are people fishing on the other side of the river, and there are pleasure boats passing by from time to time, even if you drown, you are not afraid." ”
"No, it's just no." Xia Houyue said, "Huaqiao drowns several people every year. ”
Su Ji found Xiahou Yue's stern expression, and he smiled: "Okay, I know, I'm just talking." I am most afraid of death, I will not gamble with my life, I will never go to dangerous places, and I will never do dangerous things. ”
"If you know, it's good." Xiahou Yue snorted lightly.
Su Ji made an "OK" gesture towards Xiahou Yue, looked at the river and suddenly hesitated, plucked up the courage to jump forward and get into the water, still the same sentence, I have never eaten pork, I haven't seen a pig run, isn't it breaststroke, who can't do it, stretch out your hands and row back, and push your legs back, this stroke is several meters.
Su Ji raised his head from the water, his mouth was exposed, he took a breath and drilled into the water again, this time he simply swam to the bottom of the water, swam against the pebbles of the river at the bottom of the water until he was out of breath and stood up, looked back at Xiahou Yue, and roughly estimated that they were dozens of meters away.
Su Ji felt that swimming in the water was simpler than walking and running on land, and wondered if it was because he had the blood of a dragon in his body, and the avenue was close to the water, just like a fish that could swim without learning at all, and some skills were engraved in the genes.
Su Ji looked at Xiahou Yue and got into the water again, this time against the current, and did not breathe halfway, and swam to Xiahou Yue's side and stood up in one breath.
"How?" Su Ji asked.
"You're really embarrassed to say you can't swim......" Xia Houyue said.
"I never said I couldn't swim." "I just said I didn't know. ”
"Your level ......," Xia Houyue said, "I know that some people can swim as soon as they get out of the water, but you are also ...... Anyway, I don't believe you've never swam before. ”
"I don't think I swam before." Su Ji thought for a while and said, "But sometimes you have to believe in talent, and being talented means being able to do whatever you want. ”
Xiahou Yue looked at Su Ji's triumphant appearance, she was ready to teach rookies, but she didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing, and said, "Yes, yes, you are so powerful." ”
"No, it still doesn't work." Su Ji stared at the river.
"Huh?"
"You can't jump three meters out of the water yet."
"You give me about the same."
