Chapter 26 V.30: Mountaineering

"what?"

Cheng Wu was stunned when he heard Shi Qianqian's words, Shi Qianqian chuckled and said, "I said I can accompany your grandma to the park on Saturday morning, and it's really strange that you are alone with the old man Isn't it?"

"No... this..." Cheng Wu hurried forward with a short-circuited nerve, holding a helmet in his hand and still gesticulating horizontally and vertically, "Why is grandma accompanying you to go shopping..."

"Hahaha..." Cheng Wu was incoherent for a while, Shi Qianqian covered her stomach and laughed, "Okay, I will accompany your grandma for a walk next Saturday morning, or you should pay attention to safety?"

Cheng Wu stood there in a daze like a sieve. He couldn't figure out why Shi Qianqian offered to help him go to the park with the old man. Before that, their acquaintance was only limited to their names.On the other side, at nearly 11:[-] a.m., in the cemetery of the martyrs' cemetery in the garden scenic area, the basketball team of Xiangshan Middle School finally completed the challenge of hiking along the stone steps after more than an hour. Many people were tired enough to sit directly Rest on the slate.

"My mother!" Li Ying said as she lay on the stone slab with her feet up in the air and raised her head, "The salted fish will arrive first!"

Sitting on the ground, Ouyang Yuchen took off his glasses and said, "I didn't expect that I would finish it too... Physical training is really not for nothing... I used to be unable to climb half of it by myself..."

Yang Hao wiped off his sweat with a drink of water and said, "It's really high here... If I come here once a week, I'm going to be a track and field athlete."

Zhu Chengshao couldn't persevere at first, but seeing that the others did not give up and insisted on completing the climb, Lan Lie and Meng Xiaodong were the most relaxed among them. They didn't even show signs of panting after they finished.Ye Fan wiped his sweat and handed the water to Chen Chaohai, saying, "This is much more tiring than playing a game."

Chen Chaohai took the water and said with a long breath: "It's been a long time since I've had such an intense physical exercise, huh~"

Ling Lan and Lan Shiu were also exhausted, Ling Lan supported the wall out of breath and said: "Which bastard decided to climb the mountain... I was so mad... I almost killed my old lady..."

Lan Xiao snickered at the side and said, "Sister Ling Lan made her own decision... She shot herself in the foot!"

"Ah Shih, you have a poisonous tongue!" Ling Lan chased Lan Shih in circles with her teeth and claws open, "Eat my dragon claws..."

"Look, there are persimmons!" Li Ying suddenly jumped up from the ground and looked up at the tall persimmon tree. Others also looked up at the tall persimmon tree. Go up, pick a persimmon, squeeze it in your hand, and take a bite.

"Uh..." Li Ying's facial features were all in pain, pointing to the persimmon in her hand and said, "This is a parallel import!"

"Hahaha..." Lily Lan looked at him with her hands on her hips and said like a monkey, "Idiot, the persimmons squeezed by force are not sweet!"

Li Ying jumped back to the ground in disappointment, her mouth was numb, and she quickly picked up the water to rinse her mouth.After resting on the mountainside for half an hour, everyone prepared to return down the mountain. They walked down the stone steps to the foot of the mountain and went back. Only Ling Lan and Meng Xiaodong were still standing on the stone steps.Lily Lan stood beside him with her backpack in her hand and said, "Idiot, your house is near here, right?"

Meng Xiaodong scratched his head in a daze, pointed to the direction of the path to the east and said, "It's just behind the park over there, and it's only a five-minute walk."

Ling Lan turned around and looked back at the stone steps she had just climbed and asked, "Then where are the temples you mentioned earlier and the basketball hoop on the mountain? Take me to see them."

"Now..." Meng Xiaodong said, clutching his stomach, "I'm a little hungry."

Ling Lan looked around for a while, pointed to the snack bar beside her and said, "Go there for lunch, we'll go together after eating."

After the two of them had lunch at the snack bar at the foot of the mountain and took a rest for a while, Meng Xiaodong took Lily of the Valley across the bluestone road eastward at the foot of the mountain, and a few minutes later they came to the gate of a temple.Ling Lan looked up at the temple in front of her and asked, "Is this the temple you mentioned? Do you live here?"

Meng Xiaodong shook his head back and forth and said, "I'm not a monk... I just pass by here often. From this road up to the back mountain, there is an old basketball hoop. I used to pass by here."

"No wonder..." Ling Lan pointed to the bandages on Meng Xiaodong's hands and said, "That's why the master in the temple gave you this prescription for invigorating blood circulation and eliminating pain. Okay, now let's go to the basketball hoop you mentioned."

The two walked around the temple and continued to hike up the back mountain. Compared with the neat stone steps climbing up the mountain just now, the road conditions were much worse. The surrounding environment was covered with green bamboos and was very deep. Lily of the valley walked for a while and bent down to rest and asked: Why haven't you arrived yet? This is high enough... I'm exhausted."

Lily of the valley squatted on the bluestone slab and said that she couldn't walk, and climbing high was very exhausting.Standing beside her, Meng Xiaodong scratched his head and didn't know how to continue walking up. After thinking for a long time, he stretched out his hand and said, "I'll carry you up."

"Huh?" Ling Lan squatted and raised her head, but she didn't hear clearly, Meng Xiaodong repeated it again, after which Ling Lan was first surprised and then joyfully jumped behind him, put her hands on his shoulders and jumped up.

"Hahaha..." Lily Lan happily said while lying behind him, "You guys are quite understanding! By the way, your physical strength is so good, you probably got it from walking in the mountains, right?"

"Probably..." Meng Xiaodong walked for a long distance with Lily Lan on his back. Lily Lan felt bored seeing him not talking all the time, so she called to stop, took his hand and the two walked one after the other. On the bluestone steps of the bamboo forest slope, surrounded by green and deep, the mist lingers like mountains and ravines... Lily of the valley brushed her hair, closed her eyes and took a deep breath and asked, "Idiot, aren't you afraid of being quiet here alone?"

"Ah?" Meng Xiaodong walked in front scratching his head and didn't know how to answer. Ling Lan took his wrist with a pleasant grin, stepped side by side and walked beside him and said, "I used to like a song called "blue clouds". Whenever I am upset, I will listen to this song alone, here is just like the scene depicted in that song... through the shade of the sun, the warm wind and the deep bamboo forest..."

"Oh..." Meng Xiaodong scratched his head half-understood, Ling Lan looked at his ignorant look, grinned and changed the subject and asked, "I remember you said that when you shoot on that basketball hoop, you must make the shot, right?"

Meng Xiaodong stopped and pointed to an open space in front of him. There was a narrow concrete basketball court with only half of the court and a basketball hoop. The stained rim has no net, and the backboard has several holes that have been eaten by moths.Ling Lan walked forward slowly and saw that there was no other facilities outside the [-]-square-meter cement floor and the solitary basketball hoop. She turned her head left and right and pointed around and asked Meng Xiaodong, "Can basketball be played in this kind of place? There is not even a guardrail, aren't you afraid that the basketball will fall down the mountain?"

"That's right! You finally understand!" Meng Xiaodong stepped forward and patted Ling Lan's shoulder and said, "If you miss the basket and bounce off the mountain, oh my God... that would be a nightmare, go down to pick up the ball and come back up again It’s about to run and break your legs.”

Lily of the valley suddenly realized!

The broken basketball hoop in front of the mountain, the simple field without guardrails is the reason why Meng Xiaodong's perfect shooting ability and extraordinary physical strength have been created.Ling Lan squatted down and took out a basketball and a small air pump from her backpack, connected it to the socket and handed it to Meng Xiaodong, saying, "I want to watch you shoot, here it is."

Meng Xiaodong cheered up the basketball with a ignorant expression. After a while, he took the basketball and patted it in his hand and said, "Let me declare first... If it falls, go pick it up together..."

Lily Lan was amused seeing his silly appearance, walked to the position next to the basketball hoop and said, "You idiot, shoot, I'll stop the ball here so it won't fall."

Meng Xiaodong patted the ball in his hand and walked to the basket. He threw the ball on the hoop, and the ball bounced off the backboard and fell out; Not making a shot, Ling Lan saw that he was not shooting at all and asked, "What are you doing, idiot?"

Holding the basketball in his hand, Meng Xiaodong said, "Try throwing a few before each shot... Throw the few balls that you can't make first, and then you can make them without falling down the mountain..."

"My God!" Lily Lan almost fell down as if struck by lightning after hearing his words, "There is such a treasure as you in this world! It really blinds my titanium alloy dog ​​eyes!"
