When I first walked out of the industrial area, the road was relatively spacious.

But the closer the receptionist said the destination of the dragon boat race, the more pedestrians on the road.

"Ah? It's okay? Is this just a small moat?"

A girl looked at the river, which was only 4 meters wide, and said in a low voice.

Fortunately, there are a lot of people on both sides of the road now, otherwise, if her remarks were heard by the locals, they might not be glared at.

"Dragon boat racing is of extraordinary cultural significance to the people here, and it is also a seemingly simple sport that tests human strength and coordination."

"Moreover, most of these dragon boat teams are based on the ancestral hall. It is no exaggeration to say that winning is definitely a matter of honoring the ancestors."

"If the name of any ancestral hall is not good, not only the contestants may not kneel in the ancestral hall when they go back, but even the family may not be able to hold their heads up for a year."

"Oh..."

Someone nodded approvingly.

"It turns out that's the case. According to this, dragon boat racing is also an important traditional activity for others."

"It's also a very important cultural and sports event."

Someone concluded after listening.

"Unexpectedly, I thought so many of their teams were selected, and they were actually divided by the ancestral hall?"

"Furthermore, there are ancestral halls for those with the same surname. I'm afraid it would be better if the genealogy wasn't preserved..."

Someone sighed.

In the whole of the north, it would be nice for some families to keep a good genealogy, but when it comes to ancestral halls, there are basically none.

Tracing back to the source of this kind of thing has not been valued by too many people.

Many relationships are passed down to three generations.

Unless there are some high-ranking officials and rich people in the family.

"Boom boom boom!"

A burst of intensive drumming came.

In a wider place upstream, several dragon boats are already ready.

"We are quite far away from others."

Xiao Dang looked over there from afar.

Xu Yang put his arm around Xiao Dang's shoulder and said.

"Although we are far away from the starting point, haven't you noticed that there are the most people here?"

"The most interesting thing about the whole dragon boat race is to go through the curve. We have a C-shaped curve here, which is the most technical test."

Before the receptionist could speak, Xu Yang explained for Xiaodang.

The receptionist couldn't help being a little surprised at Xu Yang's knowledge.

I thought that Xu Yang might also be a college student who came to work, but he was lucky enough to post Miss Liu Qing.

But now it seems that at least the knowledge is good.

Otherwise, how would ordinary students know this.

This is not what is taught in books.

Xu Yang didn't expect to be misunderstood again.

Does being handsome conflict with being rich and having a career?

Does he deserve to be recognized as a little boy?

"Snapped!"

A starting gun was fired.

Several dragon boats immediately set off amidst the sound of "refueling" like a tsunami on both sides.

The dragon boat is slender and long, and there are three steering and helmsmen on each side at the front and back.

There are even suspicions of fishing.

"Why are those people not moving?"

"Isn't this adding weight to the boat?"

"Wouldn't the boat come out a lot faster if we didn't take these few people who don't paddle?"

Xiao Dang asked curiously, pointing to the six helmsmen at the front and rear.

"If you read it patiently, you will know."

Xu Yang said.

But out of pampering his daughter, he still spoke out.

"A celebrity once said, who can't accelerate in a straight line?"

"Fast corners are really fast."

"The few people you call not working hard are the key to the dragon boat race."

"Some helmsmen can even control the turning distance to a few centimeters."

"Of course, if one is bad, it will be a lot of fun if the car overturns."

"Are they in charge of turning?"

After hearing Xu Yang's words, Sophora Hua also asked curiously.

Xu Yang, the most beloved daughter, knew everything when she asked questions.

"First of all, you both know about the center of gravity and fulcrum, right?"

"The helmsman is quite a center of a circle. The direction and degree of his force determine the speed and curvature when passing the small semicircle of the curve."

It is easy to switch to dragon boat racing, but it requires strong physical and psychological qualities.

"Wow! Dad, you know so much!"

Huai Hua said with a little admiration.

Xu Yang thought in his heart: Generally, it's because of shaking.

"We're almost at the bend here."

There was a rhythmic drumbeat on the dragon boat, and even the dragon boat that was a little behind just sped up the rhythm a little at the moment, but it didn't dare to go too fast.

If there is a slight deviation in the coordination, it is easy to fail to form a joint force, which will actually slow down the speed of the ship.

Dragon boat racing is such a simple activity, but it contains countless skills.

The first dragon boat won in front of Xu Yang and others.

In addition to beating the drums, these people also shouted neat numbers from their mouths, "Hey Ho, Hey Ho."

"come on! Come on!"

Infected by the people around them, Xu Yang and others also cheered together.

A relatively strong man who seemed to be paddling in front of him made a move at this time.

I saw him inserting the oar into the river and pushing hard in the opposite direction to the rower.

Almost under his subtle control, the entire dragon boat passed the C-shaped curve a little bit along the river.

"it is good!"

"come on! Come on!"

There was dense applause directly behind him.

For the locals, they also love to watch such high-quality dragon boat races.

As the first team, Chen Gong, crossed the bend, the next two, three, and four teams rushed through the bend one by one without falling behind.

Only then did Xiaodang and Huaihua understand the truth that Xu Yang said that the fast curve is really fast.

Even if the distance between them is only a dozen meters before entering the corner.

But as the first team came out of the corner, the gap was widened to more than 20 meters in an instant.

The order of entering the corners also affected the two, three or four teams that were relatively close to each other.

If you don't want to collide, you can only slow down a little and let the other party go through the curve first.

Unfortunately, there was no danger, the first four teams all passed successfully.

The fifth team was long overdue.

But surprisingly, the team wasn't just a little slower on the straights.

On the most important node of cornering, it seems that the helmsman exerted too much force too early.

Before the dragon boat entered the curve, the advantage occurred ahead of time.

The people behind couldn't control the direction and could only continue to row the dragon boat, seeing that the dragon boat was about to hit the river bank head-on.

The players in the back also lost their positions in an instant, some wanted to stop, and some didn't stop when they heard the drumbeat.

Under the action of various forces, the boat finally did not touch the shore.

But the bad news is that it didn't pass the bend, but capsized on the spot.

"Hahaha, if it's true, wouldn't the members of this team go back to kneel in the ancestral hall?"
