gluttonous adventure king

Chapter 297 Under the traditional game

After careful questioning, adding gestures and guessing...Finally, through the translation of Shuiyou, Fang Hong figured out why they were in this mountain.

They were participating in an adventure called orienteering.

Orienteering, as a new type of field activity, originated in Europe, where athletes use a map and a compass to visit each point indicated on the map, and the one who reaches all the points in the shortest time wins.It is attracting more and more people to participate and be crazy about it all over the world.It is not only a kind of outdoor leisure and entertainment sport, but also a kind of competitive sport, and it requires high physical strength and intelligence of the players.Participating in orienteering sports requires no special equipment except a compass and a map, and is a relatively economical sport.

The sport can be simply understood as a purposeful outdoor adventure.

This sport is very mature both at home and abroad, and there are basically no restrictions on the participation group from three years old to 80 years old.

It is popular because there are no venue restrictions.

For example, you can locate in the original rainforest, from Honduras to El Salvador, in the desert, from Egypt to Libya, or in the wetland park, crossing the Yellowstone Park, or in the ordinary mountains, crossing a park.

To some extent, Fang Hong's adventure is actually orienteering.

The most difficult challenge in this sport is probably from Ice Dome A to the South Pole, and the lowest challenge, you can design it to cross the Sun Yat-Sen Mausoleum.

And the route of the three Russians was across the Caucasus.

"Orienteering basically has no restrictions, but it also has its essence. The essence of this sport is that you don't take any extra steps. From the beginning of planning the movement, you have planned the perfect route in order to reach the destination as quickly as possible. .”

It's a lot like a cycling challenge.

Not long ago, someone took the G318 challenge and used a road car to complete the entire journey from CD Tianfu Square to the Potala Palace in eight days and twelve hours.

When doing this kind of challenge, no one will bring any extra items. Even the toothbrush should be cut in half with scissors to reduce the weight. The pursuit is speed.

But now the three Russians were stopped, because of the earthquake, they did not dare to rush through the saddle under the snow top.

Because they were doing orienteering, they didn't carry too much dry food, cooking stoves, or even tents.

According to the general situation of this movement, it is normal to keep going without sleep.

For example, the buddy who challenged G318 a few days ago set off in the early morning of the first day, and when he arrived at the first camping point at the foot of Zheduo Mountain, it was already two o'clock in the morning the next day, and he set off again after a two-hour rest.

Of course, these three Russians did not come to set a record. If they wanted to set a record, even if it was an earthquake, they would rush into the mountains without hesitation.

Fang Hong is also a husky. Yesterday he served the mother and son of the big bear for a day, and today he has to take care of idlers.

Fang Hong took out his own bow: "Can you use it?"

Maozi is also welcome, let alone the other Maozi, how could the Cossack not know how to use a bow?

A Maozi tried his hand with a bow, and then went into the forest.

Fang Hong: "He won't hunt and kill protected animals?"

After complicated conversion and communication, the two Maozi shook their heads: "No."

After nearly 30 minutes, the Maozi came back with an unknown pheasant-like bird and a fat rabbit.

Fang Hong set up the stove and started cooking.

The rice is saved. For foreigners with huge appetites, especially Cossacks, Fang Hong's small cooking pot is really useless.

"Brother Gun, it's not easy to meet the riding and hunting people, let's try it out!"

"There are no horses." Fang Hong said helplessly, "What is the comparison?"

Fang Hong can ride a horse, but in so many adventures, he has never had the opportunity to show his level of riding. In Fang Hong’s hometown, many people use horses to transport sand and other things. Those are poor horses that can’t run, but Fang Hong I still learned to ride a horse, and when I was in Germany, I often rode a horse for a while.

Of course, compared with the horseback nation like the Cossacks, it is probably far behind.

"It's better than archery!"

Fang Hong thought for a while, and told the three Maozi about the competition. Through complicated communication, finally, the transliteration taught by Shui You made the other party understand.

The other party is also interested.

In fact, the Cossacks are not so proficient in archery. The standard equipment of the Cossack cavalry is a knife and a stalk. There is a game that can reflect the essence of the Eurasian steppe people. This game is called horse riding and hacking, not horse riding and archery. .

Because it requires a very high cost to manufacture a large number of arrows. In the era when bows and arrows were the cheapest, an arrowhead was worth two taels of silver. However, in the era when copper coins were used to trade and buy before the Ming Dynasty, the cost of an arrowhead was a sky-high price. The riding and shooting in a large number of film and television works are basically fake.

It’s not that I look down on Europeans. A longbowman squats in a hidden place, draws his bow and aims for a long time before making up his mind to shoot. They don’t do such a luxury of shooting on horseback. Economically speaking, only ancient Chinese Only have this economic ability.

Except for Orion, the Cossacks generally don't shoot arrows, and the compound bow is different from the ordinary bow.

Fang Hong chose the location and shot birches at distances of 30 meters, 50 meters and 70 meters respectively.

At a distance of 30 meters, all four of them could hit. At a distance of 50 meters, only Fang Hong and the Cossack who hunted before were able to hit them. At a distance of 70 meters, none of them could hit them. This is also related to the characteristics of the compound bow.

After playing the shooting game, the four of them didn't seem to enjoy it too much. Fang Hong suddenly remembered a game: "Have you ever played Russian roulette?"

The three Cossacks froze for a moment, then shook their heads: "That's something the army likes to play with."

Russian roulette is to use a revolver, add only one bullet, and take turns firing at one's own temple. Once the gamble is played, one will die.

Fang Hong: "I have a very similar archery game called Gambling Arrow."

The super tube appeared very quickly, with the words 'This anchor has super powers, please do not imitate'.

"What is a gambling arrow?"

"Arrow gambling is to stand in a small circle and shoot an arrow directly above the sky. Whoever runs out of the circle at the end wins."

The three Cossacks were dumbfounded: "Madman..."

Facts have proved that the times have progressed to today, and the brave people in the true sense are not so brave. Even the Maasai have started tourism, and the Cossacks are no longer the Cossacks who charge with spears. The Cossacks also used guns.

Two Cossacks stood aside, expressing their non-participation.

Fang Hong and the Cossack who is good at hunting stand in the circle drawn with branches.

"You or I?"

The Cossack thought for a while: "You come."

Fang Hong picked up an arrow, raised his bow, and aimed at the sky: "Are you ready?"

"OK." This word is used all over the world.

Fang Hong drew the bowstring very quickly, and then fired.

The Cossack, who is accustomed to Mediterranean or European archery, was frightened. He didn't expect Fang Hong to be excited so quickly. He looked up at the sky and was stunned.

Fang Hong looked up at the sky, there was no wind, the arrow quickly reached the top, and only the shadow could be seen vaguely.

The Cossack's eyesight was good, and when he saw the arrows falling, he immediately ran out of the circle: "Damn it!"

Fang Hong watched the arrow fall, but did not move, because the arrow was not pointing at the circle at all.

Watching the arrow fall to the ground, Fang Hong was dumbfounded: "Do it!"

People always do stupid things several times in their life. For example, this time, the arrow landed straight on the string of the pot. The pot seemed to be fine, but the pot was smashed crookedly, and the arrow was useless.

Half a pot of meat was scattered all over the floor.

"Hastily!" Fang Hong quickly ran to the front of the pot and straightened the pot so that the remaining half of the pot would not be finished.

Because the handle of the pot was hot, Fang Hong pinched his earlobe, "Sloppy, you're an idiot."

The Cossack who ran away laughed loudly: "Interesting, you won."
