cut the waves

Pearl Beach is a sea with gentle currents. The bright yellow floating ball and bright orange curved buoys circle a 200m*1050m rectangular track, starting from the big red T-shaped pontoon platform, and then returning to the end in front of the pontoon Timing board, swimming 5km happens to be two big circles.

After the whistle was ready to sound, there was another "beep--" and thirty athletes "plopped" jumped into the sea.Open water events are not divided into "swimming lanes" like swimming pools. When entering the water, players often get together to grab positions.

As the game started, the training ship, medical ship and media ship surrounded the main force and began to move forward slowly.

"Do you think he can beat Cheng Zhefan?" Yan Zheng rubbed his chin and pondered, "You saw it last time too. The gap was created through years of training, and he won't be able to catch up for a while."

"That's 400m, not in the sea." Su Liao thought for a while, and then asked, "Didn't you always complain that the team couldn't find a long-distance athlete suitable for open water?"

Yan Zheng said in a muffled voice, "Yes."

He has a lot of short- and middle-distance players under his command, which can be said to be full, but among the provincial team's main middle- and long-distance players, Yan Zheng has never picked a young man who is suitable for the open water swimming marathon.In this event, the men of the Huaguo team have never won an international competition.

There are always many unexpected situations in open waters, such as collisions between players, unstable water temperature, unexpected wild creatures and so on.

Yan Zheng has tried to lead a lot of players. There are those who are indomitable in the swimming pool track, and their hands and feet are bound when they go to the sea. There are those who think the water is dirty. They are all endurance events, and the price-performance ratio of the two-hour marathon is not as high as the 1500m swimming pool...

Su Liao stared at the big army, and suddenly grinned: "I think he can win."

Yan Zheng glanced at him in disbelief.However, he knew Su Liao, a kid.Don't look at people who seem to be casual, but in fact they have a lot of ideas and think about everything they say.

"Your basis?"

Su Liao blinked slyly behind the sunglasses: "I'll tell you when he wins."

"Stinky boy!"

From the T-shaped pontoon to the first bend buoy, the athletes gradually distanced themselves.Su Liao was sitting on the coaching boat, watching the fastest one——the children of the provincial team naturally took the lead, scrambling to get close to the buoy and snatch the most favorable turning position.Yu Yu didn't join the melee, but followed them leisurely, keeping a steady distance.

Su Liao stared at Yu Yu, puzzled: "Why does he travel around?"

Although there are fewer people in the outer circle, the swimming distance is undoubtedly farther.No one likes to suffer this loss.

Yan Zheng pondered for a moment, and said to look again.

On the return journey of the first lap, Yu Yu gave up the big lap again and returned to the buoy again.

Halfway through the race, the first echelon completely opened up the distance.Cheng Zhefan took the lead, a dozen positions faster than No.2.Behind him, three children from the provincial team huddled together, scrambling for a position.Yu Yu still followed the three of them unhurriedly, and then ran to the position of the big circle.

Yan Zheng just nodded his head, and his tone was quite appreciative: "I didn't expect this kid to be quite smart."

"He is consciously walking in a big circle." Yan Zheng stretched out his hand to compare on the sea surface, "There should be a current under the sea, and it is going westward, about this wide."

"When you swim to the east, the side close to the buoy will be resisted by the current hedging, which is equivalent to 'running against the wind'. Choosing a large circle away from the buoy may reduce the impact of convection and reduce physical exertion."

Su Liao suddenly realized: "Oh, so when he swam to that side, the current turned into a 'tailwind' boost, so he swam in a small circle again!"

Yan Zheng nodded: "That's right. Anything can happen in open water. How athletes find the most suitable position in the water is also an important factor in determining the results of the competition."

Four and ten minutes passed, and Su Liao felt a little anxious sitting on the boat, not to mention how the underwater athletes felt.Sweat dripped down his neck into the T-shirt, every minute and every second was so long.

Yan Zheng spoke slowly, saying that swimming marathon is the loneliest sports event.In the pool project, there are spectators, there are cheers, and there is nothing in the water.As for other marathons, they are all on land, but in the sea, anything can happen.

Finally, the race entered the last 500 meters.The provincial team athletes who were ranked second and third seemed to have run out of stamina and slowed down, but Yu Yu suddenly accelerated, and in a blink of an eye, the distance between him and No.1 Cheng Zhefan was shortened by half.

Even Yan Zheng was a little surprised this time—it's hard to imagine that after swimming nearly 5000 meters, Yu Yu could still swim at the same speed as the 400m individual event in the last 400m.This speed is mediocre in the 400m single event, but it is very eye-catching in the sprint section of the marathon.

"come on--"

"come on--"

The location of the auditorium is just 200 meters away from the final sprint.When the first echelon entered the field of vision, the cheers on the shore grew louder, and some people started chasing people in the water on the shore.

Several students in No. [-] Middle School were talking loudly. Wang Pengpeng wished he could bring a loudspeaker. He slapped Mao Kaijie on the back: "Come—shout together—"

"Second Middle School! Come on!"

"Where are our people? It's too far away and I can't see clearly!"

"Next time we should all have school-style swimming caps."

"No way, isn't that green?"

When Yu Yu was almost side by side with Cheng Zhefan, he heard a very unique sound of cheering from the shore...

"If you want to pass the game!"

"How can there be no green on the head!"

"Second Middle School! Come on!"

Because there is no swimming lane division, the people around you are more violent than the waves.The water Cheng Zhefan whipped up would splash on Yu Yu's head from time to time, making his mouth taste fishy and salty.White water splashes hit his glasses from time to time, and his vision is sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.

At the moment when he jumped into the sea, Yu Yu imagined many things, such as the bonus after winning the championship, such as the expression on the opponent's face after winning Cheng Zhefan, and whether Yan Zheng will change his opinion of himself... But at the most critical moment of winning the championship, he found that there was only one thought in his mind——

He wants this splash, it can no longer cover his eyes!

He wanted to see the blue sky, he wanted to see the bright sunlight, he wanted to see the vast sea—and when all these slowly opened up in front of his vision, Yu Yu knew that he surpassed Cheng Zhefan.

The sun was so bright, the sea water had a deep blue color, and the cheers were deafening. There was no obstacle between him and the finish timing bridge!

Yu Yu raised his arm and hit the timing bridge with a "snap".He turned his head and watched Cheng Zhefan and another student from the provincial team swim across the finish line one by one, with a dazed expression on his face.

He was floating on his back on the sea, his chest seemed to be beating a drum, and the excitement like an electric shock almost made him choke.

He won?

Six provincial team athletes came, and he won the championship?

The cheers on the shore lasted for a long time.Yan Zheng turned off the engine and let the boat float on the sea: "Okay, can we talk now?"

Su Liao let out a breath slowly: "That day I accidentally discovered that his breath holding time underwater was almost twice as long as mine, so I went to check some information."

"I considered several possibilities at the time: first, his lung capacity was relatively large; second, his carbon dioxide tolerance was stronger; third, when his body was hypoxic, the spleen could give more red blood cell reserves—but No matter what the reason is, this means that in sports, he can hold on for a longer time than others with the same breath."

Su Liao explained: "I know that Yu Yu's sprinting speed is very fast, because he can not take a breath in the last section. Moreover, Mr. Zhang gave us the body side before. He is not as good as me in the maximum strength event, but he is worse than me in the strength and endurance events. I am strong. Therefore, Mr. Yu Yu said that he is best at 400m, but I think his perception of himself is biased, and he should be more suitable for long-distance swimming.”

"Furthermore, I heard that his hometown is by the seaside of Huaxi, and he grew up swimming in the sea. Therefore, he has a unique advantage in open water, which is completely incomparable to children like us who grew up in swimming pool training."

After Yan Zheng listened, he nodded and said "yes" three times.

"You care about this classmate?"

Su Liao curled his lips: "No. Putting forward conjectures based on observations and existing data, and then scientifically proving them through experiments is the most basic research method."

Yan Zheng smiled: "Is it a new good friend?"

The corner of Su Liao's mouth twitched, and his eyes instantly became disgusted: "No."

Yan Zheng: "?"

"He blocked me."

Yan Zheng: "..."

He didn't want to comment on the quarrel among the brats, but he just stretched out his hand to pat Su Liao's head, and said in a doting tone, "I said, if you put more of your thoughts into the physics competition, your father will be so happy." .”

Su Liao avoided the opponent's hand very dissatisfied: "Don't mention the physics competition to me."

Most of the athletes have already landed, but they have not left yet. They are still waiting for the referee team to count the final results and present awards on the spot in a while.

Cheng Zhefan stared at Yu Yu for a long time with a dark face, but he didn't take the initiative to speak.It was Yu Yu who stopped him first: "Hey, last time in No. [-] Middle School, what did you mean by that sentence you said to Su Liao?"

Cheng Zhefan didn't react for a while: "What?"

"You said something that Su Liao couldn't ask for, what a mess."

Cheng Zhefan originally thought that Yu Yu would come back with a sneer, but he was a little surprised: "Wait for a long time and you want to tell me this?"

Yu Yu looked at him with the same doubt, the black and white characters on his face were completely undisguised—what else can I talk to you about?Don't talk about Su Liao talk about you?

"You don't—" Cheng Zhefan swallowed the word "know" as soon as he opened his mouth.He didn't start: "Ask him yourself."

Yu Yu frowned and said nothing.

Are Cheng Zhefan and Su Liao familiar?Maybe they are very familiar. After all, Su Liao also went to the provincial team for training on weekends, and he has such a good relationship with Yan Zheng. He may have known Cheng Zhefan since he was very young.

Yu Yu remembered what Su Liao asked himself that day——

"So why on earth are you swimming?"

Yu Yu thought for a while, and threw the same question to Cheng Zhefan again.He didn't know what was going on in Su Liao's multi-core CPU brain, but he knew that for some reason, Su Liao seemed very dissatisfied with his answer.

Cheng Zhefan's answer was concise and straightforward: "To win."

Before Yu Yu could speak, Yan Zheng's boat came ashore not far away, followed by Su.I saw Yan Zheng waved his hand boldly at the organizer, and shouted loudly: "Hey, the kids in front of the row are all from our professional group. The weather is fine today, so I pulled it out for a walk, and it shouldn't be occupied Your number of winners!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and circled a few people, including Yu Yu.

Yu Yu: "?"

I'm not?

I don't?

My 1000 champion bonus?

He struggled: "Well, wait—"

Most of the people in the Yanzhou Swimming Association knew each other, and the referee over there gave Yan Zheng a smile and said, "Are you all your students? Coach Yan has worked hard, but congratulations, they are all excellent seedlings!"

Yu Yu's mood was very complicated, and he really wanted to shout "No, I don't know this person", but when he saw Yan Zheng looking at him, his heart beat faster again.

Yan Zheng hooked his fingers at him, signaling him to go over.

I saw the little angel asked if there will be daily updates after entering V, here is a unified answer:

To be honest, there are too few people who read this book. If there is no advance receipt, it should not be able to enter V [狗头]

I'll try my best, I'm a bit slow in writing Chinese, it's a bit difficult for me to update daily, I won't update every day, but I will try my best T_T

Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: 10 bottles of Mo Xiaoran;

Thanks for the support, bows.
