In the early morning, the looming white mist permeates the river water, and the hazy water vapor shrouds the surrounding scenery, like a freehand landscape with far-reaching rhythm, which makes people feel that their minds are clear.
The sun shines through the clouds to coat the green mountains and green water with a layer of light gold. Qiao Hao faced the wind and looked at the sparkling river surface, took a deep breath, and began to prepare for today.
It has been a long time since Qiao Mo came here, and the members of their Eleven girls are now collecting stories for their respective intangible cultural heritage projects across the country, although they cannot become intangible in just one month, but this is not the case. Prevent them from understanding relevant content and presenting it in publicity.
The project Qiao Mo chose was Duzhu Drift, which is known as water ballet in the industry. Meng Lingsi, who instructed her for this purpose, came to Gui Province, the birthplace of Duzhu Drift, to study and shoot with her.
"Little Joe, are you here so early?"
Qiao Hao was standing by the river when the voice of the coach whom Meng Lingsi had brought to guide Qiao Hao came from behind. The other party was a local resident and had been training since childhood, and it has been 16 years since he was a child.
"Well, Sister Lingling, I want to practice for a while."
Qiao Mo turned around and saw her coach Huo Lingling came over, quickly jumped off the bamboo lying on the ground, and stood firmly on the ground, seeing the smile on Huo Lingling's face even stronger, He took a few steps forward and looked at the river surface for a while, then turned around and said to Qiao Mo, "The weather is fine today, you can try it again in the water."
Hearing Huo Lingling's words, Qiao Hao immediately opened her eyes, and there was a bright light in her clear eyes. She blinked happily, and quickly ran back to the bamboo that was hanging in the air for practice. Time to exercise your balance.
Seeing Qiao Hao standing lightly on the emerald green bamboo, Huo Lingling's eyes moved, and she had mixed feelings for a while.
In fact, Eleven girls found Huo Lingling for cooperation at first, but she was not optimistic.
It's not that she is xenophobic, but that although Duzhu Drift is very popular in their local area, not everyone can learn it. She has practiced for 16 years before she has achieved small achievements. It is even more difficult to say; secondly, there are various institutions that have come to their door one after another over the years, and the local elderly also hope that more people can understand their special project, but most people find it difficult to learn Or due to various considerations, in the end, various plans came to nothing.
So people from Eleven girls found them and said that they wanted to create a single with Duzhudrift. Huo Lingling's first reaction was that this incident would definitely end in a hurry, and let a girl group idol become fast within a month. Simply incredible.
Huo Lingling wanted to refuse, but when she thought about it, the result would not be worse anyway, and she was about to turn 30. Duzhu floating is an activity that requires physical strength and concentration, and her reaction has been great over the years. Not as good as before, it is estimated that in a few years, she will completely say goodbye to this activity she likes. In this case, she wants to do as much as possible before leaving.
"Let me tell you first, I can only say that I will try my best to teach you, but I can't guarantee what level it will be in the end, and I don't want to delay your affairs, so you have to be mentally prepared."
Huo Lingling said, looking at Qiao Mo who came with the staff, she couldn't help looking up and down.
The other party looks like eighteen or nineteen years old, with a petite physique and beautiful appearance. I heard that he is a popular rookie idol now.
However, Huo Lingling doesn't chase stars. Apart from tourists, the locals are mostly old people and children, and they rarely see young people, so even if she knows Qiao Mo's name, Huo Lingling has only a vague concept in her head, thinking that these idols are all no difference.
"Well, I'll try my best."
Although Huo Lingling was pouring cold water on Qiao Yan from the beginning, Qiao Yan was not discouraged by this, she answered Huo Lingling seriously.
"Okay then, I want to see your balance ability first."
Facing Qiao Hao's determined gaze, Huo Lingling said hesitantly, she stood up and took Qiao Hao to the hanging bamboo for training in the yard, and let Qiao Hao walk over the bamboo alone.
"Huh? Isn't it like walking a tightrope?"
The staff who came with Qiao Mo were stunned. They looked at the rows of bamboos hanging in the air, and their hearts felt empty.
The performers of Duzhu Drift need to stand on a straight bamboo with a diameter of about 16 centimeters and a length of about 8 meters, and hold a bamboo pole with a diameter of about 6 centimeters and a length of about 4 meters in their hands as pulp, like driving a boat and a bamboo raft on the water. Walking up, which also includes many skills such as straight strokes, reverse strokes, turns, etc., is very ornamental.
Therefore, if you want to master this kind of movement with the charm of crossing the river with a reed, the ability to balance is particularly important.
As a sea otter who lives in the sea all the year round, Qiao Hao's body balance is far beyond ordinary people, so when the others are still standing aside and dare not try, Qiao Hao has quickly and steadily walked over the hanging bamboo. , walking lightly back to the ground.
"It's over so soon?"
The staff couldn't help but widen their eyes. They looked at the dangling bamboo, thinking that the point was not that Qiao Hao could walk all the way smoothly, but that her movements were light and agile, like walking on the ground, which is surprising. place.
Qiao Mo nodded, turned to look at Huo Lingling, and asked worriedly, "How is it?"
Huo Lingling was stunned at first, and she, like the others, did not expect that Qiao Hao could go through the whole process so quickly.
In fact, there were also variety shows that brought guests here for recording before. The stars who came at that time also tried to get rid of the bamboo that was hanging in the air like Qiao Mo. They either fell down in the middle of the body stiffness, or kept screaming, and finally didn't. Dare to go up, so when she saw Qiao Mo's flexible movements, her breath suddenly stopped.
This girl has a play.
"Have you practiced acrobatics? The posture is very beautiful."
It is definitely not enough to walk from one end to the other smoothly on the bamboo. It is also necessary to see the performer's demeanor standing on the bamboo. The clothes are fashionable and the posture is light to be considered qualified, and Qiao Mo has achieved at this point.
"Then I don't think it's difficult, does it?"
Seeing that everything went so well, the staff immediately became happy. After he finished speaking, Huo Lingling glanced at him, not angry, but said with a smile: "Of course it's not difficult on land, it's rare how to keep it in the water. stand."
Huo Lingling waved at Qiao Mo, motioned everyone to go to the water with her, and then pointed to the bamboo that rested on the shore and the other was floating in the water, and said, "You need to walk to that bamboo later, Then we gently lift the end that is on the shore and push it into the water, and you need to find the center point of the bamboo so it doesn't sink."
The staff quickly took safety measures by the water, and then Qiao Mo stepped on the bamboo and walked forward. There was a subtle touch under his feet, which was different from the hard feeling of walking on land. The bamboo floating in the water would Because of Qiao Mo's movements and her own weight, she swayed up and down, giving people a feeling of weightlessness, like stepping on undulating waves in a trance.
Qiao Mo's brows twitched. This feeling made her involuntarily recall the time when she floated on the sea in the form of a sea otter. She couldn't help but move in her heart, and a familiar memory spread in her body.
She took a deep breath, and an emotion called excitement gradually rose up in her heart.
She was all too familiar with this feeling.
Looking at Qiao Hao, who was full of novelty and leaps and bounds, Huo Lingling was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly came back to her senses and couldn't help but nodded in her heart.
Great, this emotion allows learners to get into the state more quickly, rather than timid and stagnant.
Huo Lingling was suddenly a little curious about what Qiao Hao was like before she came here. For the first time, she had no interest in the entertainment industry. She wanted to see how the idol in front of her had shown in the past, otherwise Why it can be so surprising.
"Find the center point and hold on."
The staff began to try to put the whole bamboo into the water. Huo Lingling stood aside and watched intently, telling Qiao Mo what to pay attention to. The rest of the staff also took safety measures to prevent Qiao Mo from failing and falling into the water. water.
At the moment when the bamboo was lifted, Qiao Mo only felt as if she had lost all the fulcrums, she only felt that the whole person had lost weight, and the force from the weak wave was infinitely amplified in an instant, as if a gust of wind You can flip her over, but after a few seconds of distraction, she falls into the water with a thud.
"Joe!"
"Are you OK?"
The staff exclaimed. The lifeguards were about to take Qiao Hao out of the water when they saw that Qiao Hao had swum ashore by herself, and smiled embarrassingly at Huo Lingling, "It's really difficult."
When the cold wind by the river blew, the wet clothes were tightly attached to Qiao Yan's skin, giving birth to a biting chill, which made Qiao Yan couldn't help sneezing.
The assistant quickly came over with a towel blanket and put it on Qiao Yan, while Huo Lingling looked at Qiao Yan and asked, "Do you still want to try it?"
The assistant was about to say that today is fine, but Qiao Mo nodded and said, "Yeah!"
…
The memories of these days flashed in Huo Lingling's mind. She looked at Qiao Hao, who could now stand in the water. She thought that Qiao Hao would come to them earlier to worship a master, maybe now she can do it. Become an intangible heir.
The clouds and fog gradually dissipated with the temperature, and the sun poured through the clouds and the distant mountains on the sparkling river surface. Looking up, the mountains were embracing green, and the clear river surface was like a blue ribbon spreading between the mountains. Smart and far-reaching.
Qiao Hao stood on the green bamboo and slowly approached the river with the water waves. From a distance, she looked like Fairy Lingbo standing in the lake and mountains, hazy and unreal.
Cheng Su, who came down from the mountain along the stone ladder and walked to the riverside, happened to see this scene.
Behind the girl is a burst of rising sun, and the golden light from the sky falls on Qiao Mo through the layers of green mountains, which outlines a dynamic connotation between the mountains and rivers for her, and makes the viewers lose their minds.
Facing the wind and stepping on the waves, at this moment, Qiao Mo gently closed his eyes, feeling the gift of nature, and his heart was indescribably comfortable.
Then, she opened her eyes.
On the shore, Cheng Su was looking at her quietly.
