Chapter 328: Dog sled racing

Views:

Another name for the Erha dog is "Siberian Husky". This dog sled is a good hand, so there are many Erha dogs in the dog sled competition.

Jing Er was holding the golden retriever, the big orange cat was lying on the little girl's shoulder, and the squirrel and the thrush were lying on the plum tree's shoulders.

As everyone walked toward the crowd with Uncle York, they heard Uncle York muttering: "There are 256 teams participating in this dog sled competition, and it is expected that more than 10,000 people will come to watch.

Among these 10,000 people, some came from Canada and the United States, while others came from Iceland and Northern Europe. ".

Greenland belongs to North America, but it is very close to Iceland, which belongs to Europe. This is because it is very close to the North Pole.

After all, whether it is Europe, North America, or Asia, extending north to the pole will meet at the North Pole.

"I'll go! Is Yasef among the contestants?" Li Shu squeezed into the crowd and saw 50 contestants already at the starting position.

Su Zhizhe squeezed to the right side of the plum tree, folded his arms and smiled: "The dogs work in pairs. There are eight dogs pulling a sled, and the owner of the dog is wearing ski boots and standing behind the sled with both hands on it." Toboggan."

Li Shu said slowly: "The dog owner wearing ski boots does not sit on the sled, which reduces the frictional resistance between the sled and the ground. The dog owner controls the direction of the sled and then pushes the sled." , making the sled faster.".

"The enemy!" As soon as Su Zhizhe finished speaking, the referee's starting gun fired, bang~

In an instant, hundreds of dogs rushed forward pulling 50 sleds at extremely fast speeds. The wooden poles of the sled carts shoveled the snow, and bits of snow foam were flying in the air.

"Banpunaridaya~".

“&@%@%@&;… … “.

“#¥?¥#%… … “.

A large number of spectators on both sides of the track immediately shouted with excitement, cheering for their favorite sled owners and sled dogs. The noisy shouts exploded on the vast snowfield, and the atmosphere was extremely heated in an instant.

"Damn, it's so noisy!" Li Shulian got out of the crowd, followed closely by Su Zhizhe.

"Brother, I saw it, the No. 1 sleigh is the fastest!" The little girl was lifted high by Jing Laosan and pointed to the south excitedly.

Sleigh No. 1 was the sled driven by "Yasefu" that Li Shu met in the morning. The bottom of the sled was almost dry with the snow, and the one Li Shu saw in the morning just wanted to chase the Thunderbird. Silly Erha is actually one of the two "lead dogs", and it and the other dog mainly drive the speed.

"Meow~" The big orange cat looked up at the dim sunshine. The endless snowfield was an eye-opener for a cat who lives in the tropics. It wanted to run and play in this endless snowfield, but now it can only be forced. Watching the silly dog running game.

"Meow~" [I don't want to see a silly dog pulling a car and running wildly.]

"Big Orange Cat, do you also want to go to the finish line to see who can win? Let's go, let's drive to the finish line!" Li Shulian said with a smile.

Big orange cat: "-_-||".

"Yes, yes, walk fast." Su Zhizhe took his girlfriend Yao Li's hand and said: "I guess among the 50 sled dog teams in this round, Team 2 must have won! Team 1 ran fast at the beginning, but There is a high probability that the team will be weak in the middle, and the No. 2 team will tightly bite the No. 1 team, and the probability of overtaking the No. 1 team in the end is extremely high. ".

Qian Rongjie smiled and said: "Then I will beat Team 6. Team 6 is now ranked third, and the 8 dogs of Team 6 are obviously stronger. The stronger the dogs, the more advantage they will have in the second half of the 10 kilometers!"

Let's do this, whoever loses between us will bear the expenses of the future trip, including food, clothing, housing and transportation! ".

"No problem!" Su Zhizhe agreed with a smile, and a small betting game was formed.

Li Shu, Su Zhizhe and others got on Uncle York's slut to impress the public, while Jing Laoer and other bodyguards got into two hired taxis, merged with the traffic of many tourists, and headed straight to the south.

"Oops! Lost!" As soon as everyone reached the finish line and the car hadn't stopped yet, they saw Yasef's dog pulling the No. 1 sled car across the finish line. Bang, bang, bang, bang, countless fireworks tubes exploded. Colorful strips of red, orange, yellow and green were flying in the air, congratulating everyone on successfully reaching the finish line.

The atmosphere was lively, with some people doing somersaults in the snow, and the big yellow dog raised by Li Shu also howled excitedly along with the tourists’ shouts: “Ooooo~”.

When the big yellow dog stopped and howled with its mouth stretched out, a puff of white breath floated out of its mouth. That was the water vapor it exhaled that was frozen into ice crystals in an instant.

"Awesome!" Li Shu gave a thumbs up to Yasef, who responded with a thumbs up in the crowd with a face full of joy.

"There are 256 sled runners in total. If there are 50 runners in one race, it will take 6 rounds." Yao Li, wearing a thick white down jacket, said.

Both Qian Rongjie and Su Zhizhe lost, and immediately stopped mentioning the bet, and echoed: "That should be the case, but the last six teams may be divided into other rounds of competition. After all, on the 80-meter-wide snow track , it seems that we can definitely add a few teams. ".

Su Zhizhe and Qian Rongjie's guess was correct, but something unexpected happened in the third round. There were supposed to be 50 dog teams competing in this round, but two dog teams were added to the competition, which instantly turned into 52 dog teams. Much more crowded.

A slight difference can make a huge difference.

Halfway through the run, the two teams in the middle got too close, causing a dog from the team on the left to bite a dog from the team on the right. The bitten dog fought back, and then there were 16 dogs in the two teams. The dogs bite, and then spread to 5 to 6 other dog teams that are close by.

“%&%%… … “.

“%@&@%… … “.

The dog owners from the two teams exchanged a few words and then punched each other directly. Their fists as big as sandbags hit the flesh, and they staged a boxing match in the middle of the vast snow field.

The crowd watching the excitement was divided into two waves, each supporting a "boxer", jumping to their feet and cheering, but no one stepped forward to start a fight.

When the ski resort security ran over from a distance and pulled the two away, one's right eye turned into a panda eye, his nose was bleeding, and the other's face was swollen from being slapped.

The episode went by in a flash, and after the game was over, it was time to count, and it was finally confirmed that Yasef was indeed the champion and won the gold medal. The second place from Norway was only 1.2 seconds slower than him, but a defeat was a defeat.

There was a grand celebration at noon. Many people had ribbons hanging on their doorsteps. People who came to the restaurant to eat were also talking about the dog sled competition.

"After staying outside for a long time, it feels too cold. Let's go skiing tomorrow." Yao Li first suggested while eating delicious "flounder in sauce" for lunch.

"Yes, yes, it is indeed a bit cold." The little girl also said.

It is best not to stay in the snow for a long time, otherwise no matter how thick you wear, your body heat will still be lost little by little, and you may run the risk of developing a fever or even hypothermia.

“Agree!“.

“Then let’s go skiing tomorrow!”.
