Friday morning, big break.
The students were originally resting in the classroom, but were startled by a piece of news from the class monitor Huang Zhongfei when class was about to start.
"The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, so two classes this afternoon are temporarily cancelled." Huang Zhongfei announced at the podium.
"Fuck, doesn't this mean that after class in the morning, we can go straight home?" Guo Kunnan was surprised. It would be great to have a holiday early!
Huang Zhongfei quickly explained: "No, no, our school is holding a dragon boat race this afternoon."
When everyone heard this, there was an uproar, and the whole classroom was filled with cheers and excitement!
Of course they have heard of dragon boat racing during the Dragon Boat Festival, but such things only exist in their imagination or they have seen them on TV.
As for the real dragon boat race, they had never seen it before, but they didn’t expect that the school would actually hold it today
At this moment, the students were moved by the conscience of No. 4 Middle School. They had cursed the school countless times and hated it for not fighting hard. Who would have thought that No. 4 Middle School would endure the humiliation and rise again.
Chen Siyu was surprised: "Class leader, where are we going to row the dragon boat?"
Jiang Yanan: "I guess it's the Huishui River. The river is wide and close to the school, so it's a natural place for dragon boat racing."
The students were discussing the matter excitedly and were very interested in the dragon boat race.
Xue Yuantong stayed in her seat. She said, "Jiang Ning, if we race dragon boats in the Huishui River, can we go home directly after the race?"
Then, she became worried again: "But in that case, Jiang Ning, will your bicycle still be left at school?"
Chen Siyu interrupted: "You can bring your bicycle with you."
"Good idea." This way, it fits perfectly.
Jiang Ning: "How about we listen to the monitor's talk first?"
Huang Zhongfei seemed to be hesitant to speak because his classmates were so noisy that his voice was completely drowned out.
After a while, everyone came to their senses and looked at the monitor.
Huang Zhongfei said in embarrassment: "The school has decided to hold the dragon boat race on the playground."
Cui Yu: "Hahaha, the principal is quite considerate. He let us gather first."
Huang Zhongfei, "No, I mean, hold a dragon boat race on the playground."
"ha?"
Meng Gui jumped out and said nonsense: "In order to hold the dragon boat race, the school actually wants to fill the playground with water. This is a huge project!"
Huang Zhongfei: "The dragon boat race held this time is also called land boat racing."
After he explained it clearly, his classmates were disappointed. "I'm still looking for a sword on a boat when I'm sailing on land!"
Wang Longlong: "Let's go, it's boring."
"It's gone." Duan Shigang was also bored.
Huang Zhongfei was embarrassed and blamed himself for not explaining it clearly from the beginning, which led to his classmates raising their expectations too high.
"Land boating is actually quite interesting. You will find out when you get to the playground this afternoon."
"And the principal said that in order to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, he gave everyone in the school a zongzi coupon. With this coupon, you can go to the cafeteria to get zongzi. There are candied dates, red beans, salted egg yolks, and meat dumplings."
Hearing about the free rice dumplings, Xue Yuantong shouted happily: "Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, I want the red bean ones!"
Chen Siyu: "I haven't tried the salted egg yolk one yet."
Other students were also quite satisfied. They didn’t expect that No. 4 Middle School would have such courage. You know, from the first to the third year of high school, including repeater classes, there are nearly two thousand students in the school!
Huang Zhongfei continued to reveal: "In addition, the 'Land Boating' event will hold competitions with prizes ranging from third prize to special prize."
"The prizes are premium rice dumplings, pork ribs and egg yolk rice dumplings, fruit rice dumplings, eight-treasure rice dumplings, chestnut rice dumplings, and a champion water cup with rice dumplings printed on it."
Cui Yu shouted: "Is there anything like this?"
Jiang Yanan: "I want a cup."
Shen Qing'e suddenly said, "Eight-treasure Zongzi, sounds good."
After hearing this, Dong Qingfeng kept it in mind. In the afternoon, he will demonstrate his skills on the playground to let all the students in the school see what a "land fairy" is.
After hearing about such a prize, the students’ sense of disappointment disappeared and they began to sharpen their knives, aiming for the championship.
"Brother Quan, what do you think about the championship?" Guo Kunnan asked.
Shan Kaiquan ignored it: "I am not afraid of competition."
Think about how he has come along the way, studying, exercising, surpassing countless predecessors and becoming the best among men.
"Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, have you ever eaten fruit dumplings?"
“No.”
"Then do you want to eat?" Xue Yuantong blinked his watery eyes, trying hard to hint.
"I don't want to eat." Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong's face was innocent: "But I want to eat."
Jiang Ning: "Then think about it."
…
afternoon.
As soon as Jiang Ning's mountain bike drove into the school, he felt a celebratory atmosphere.
Although the sun was strong and the temperature was high, the joy on the students' faces could not be concealed.
Jiang Ning felt emotional. The happiness during his student days was so simple. He didn’t have to attend classes, and could be happy just by participating in an activity.
He arrived at school late, and his homeroom teacher Shan Qingrong was speaking at the podium.
All the things he explained were unimportant. Until the last student in the class, Wu Xiaoqi, arrived with the ball, Shan Qingrong waved his hand:
"Set off!"
Xue Yuantong immediately followed Jiang Ning.
The weather outside was hot, Jiang Ning activated his magic power and set up a cooling formation around his body, so Xue Yuantong came closer.
The corridor was packed with students, forming a long line. Class 9, led by Gao Heshuai, followed closely behind Class 8.
Yan Tianpeng wore a pair of sunglasses and walked with the gait of a dragon or a tiger, looking like a gangster.
Shen Xu stepped forward quickly: "Tianpeng, you are the ace of our class, this time it depends on you."
Shi Qianjin: "I beg you, Tianpeng, I must take first place this time."
He sincerely hoped that Class 9 could get first place so that Yan Tianpeng could win the Zongzi cup and would not have to use his cup to drink water anymore.
Yan Tianpeng clenched his fists: "I will definitely win the championship."
The campus is full of groups organized into classes, and everyone's destination is the playground.
A huge flow of people flowed through the entrance and into the playground.
It was the time when the sun was at its strongest, and the scorching sun filled the playground, baking everything.
Even the dense trees around seemed listless, but the students who stepped into the playground were excited.
Because there were many colorful, dragon-shaped objects on the green grass. When I looked closer, I found that they were inflatable dragons.
"Is this a dragon boat?" Chen Siyu said.
Bai Yuxia: "It's quite unique."
Xue Yuantong: "It seems like I can ride it!"
Chen Siyu guessed: "Look at the dragon's back, there are many black handles."
Someone started counting the handles on the back of the long dragon. There were 10 in total, which seemed to imply that the long dragon could seat 10 people
From the first to the second year of high school, more than twenty classes formed square formations around the center of the playground.
The senior high school students will not participate in the Dragon Boat Festival activities because they are about to take the college entrance examination.
Director Yan held the microphone and explained the rules of the competition.
Each class, with 10 students at a time, rides on a long dragon. The students hold the handles of the dragon's crest with both hands, lift the air-cushioned dragon, and then walk with their legs to drive the dragon forward.
The race is 80 meters long and can accommodate three long dragons each time.
After understanding the rules, cheers were heard from Class 7 of Grade 1.
The strong Zhao Jinyang laughed out loud. Isn’t this just a game of coordination
I miss Class 7. Under his leadership, we are united as one.
In the last sports meet, in the three-legged race, their Class 7 was the undisputed first in the school.
Zhao Jinyang's tanned face showed a reckless expression: "Brothers, listen carefully. This time, follow me to win the championship!"
Bo Han responded: "Are you going to work on Shift 8 this time?"
Zhao Jinyang looked at the long-legged girl Tang Fu in the class and felt indignant. He already knew that Tang Fu went to Class 8 to repay the money. To him, this was no less than a betrayal!
For Tang Fu and the glory of Class 7, this time, Zhao Jinyang looked serious and uttered four words:
"Bloodbath of Class Eight!"
At the same time, Meng Ziyun from Class 5 said in an expectant tone: "It would be great if I could win the prize. I will definitely post the prize on QQ space."
Cao Kun, the tall and thin flower protector next to him, immediately said, "Ziyun, your QQ space has been released."
Class 1, Class 2... all are mobilizing for the game.
Huang Zhongfei came back from drawing lots with three labels in his hand: "One of our class is number 1, another is number 12, and another is number 24."
Each class has three chances to compete. There will be no duplicate matches and the champion will be determined by the time spent in each match.
"Who wants the three tags? Let's make it clear that whoever gets the tag will be responsible for recruiting the 10 members for the competition."
Sports Committee member Zhang Chi was the first to step out: "I'll do it!"
Although there was no cash prize in this competition, Zhang Chi contacted Shen Xu from Class 9 in advance, and the other party said that if he was willing to give the prize to him to sell, he could make money.
That's why Zhang Chi was so active.
Huang Zhongfei gave one to Jiang Ning. He held the last label in his hand. "Is there one last one?"
Jiang Yanan: "You are the class monitor, so you should take the lead."
Yu Wen: “Yes, yes, yes.”
After confirming it, Director Yan gave a speech: "Dragon Boat Race to Welcome the Dragon Boat Festival..."
The competition enters the preparation stage.
Huang Zhongfei was from team number one. He was the first to occupy a long dragon and was at the head of the dragon. Jiang Yanan followed, then Dong Qingfeng and Duan Shigang. Soon, the long dragon was almost full.
Yu Wen chose the dragon's tail because it would echo the dragon's head.
Before the race started, I heard Class 1 shouting, "Set sail, cut through the waves, Class 1 dragon boat, who can compete with us!"
I also heard the high school students shouting: "In this bright and clear world, we are the only ones who can rule the roost. Class 6 will be undefeated for thousands of years!"
Huang Zhongfei in the middle felt a little nervous as they had not prepared any slogans.
The physical education teacher kept time and Director Yan acted as the referee.
His deep, powerful voice echoed throughout the playground: "Are you ready?"
Three teams shouted, 'Ready!'
Huang Zhongfei held the handle of the dragon tightly. The students from Class 8 behind him followed his posture. The cute dragon rose into the air, and everyone looked solemn.
All the students in the school gathered around and Director Yan said, "Everyone, get ready... Charge!"
He waved the small flag in his hand.
Three long dragons started moving instantly, crawling on the green grass.
There were countless cheers all around, the crowd was excited and laughter was heard one after another.
Dong Jiayi from Class 1 excitedly ran to the finish line to greet her classmates.
Wei Xiuyuan saw this and felt as if he had taken medicine. At this moment, he felt as if he was controlling the Dragon King of the East China Sea. He slapped the dragon's head hard and rushed forward with big strides.
Lin Zida: "Fuck, slow down!"
The already unstable formation was instantly disrupted. "
Du Chuan stumbled, lost his balance, and rolled down from the long dragon. Lin Zida bumped into him and also lost his balance. The students behind him fell down like dominoes, and the long dragon of Class 1 came to a halt.
Dong Jiayi stood there with her mouth wide open.
The long queue of Class 8 passed leisurely, and Yu Wen, who was the last one, laughed sweetly.
The people in Class 1 are so funny. I thought they were top students with excellent performance, but they are so funny. She was laughing so hard while steering the dragon boat.
Yu Wen subconsciously put out her hand to cover her mouth, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was pulled to the side by the long dragon moving forward.
Yu Wen screamed "Ah!" and fell from the long dragon.
"No, no, is this the end?" Time slowed down, Yu Wen's vision blurred, she looked at the squad leader in front of her, he was struggling forward, his back was still handsome.
"I don't want to leave him!" Yu Wen, lying on the ground, used her remaining hand to tightly grasp Changlong, protesting against fate.
She screamed in her heart: "Even if heaven and earth unite, I will never break up with you!"
Yu Wen transformed directly into a tractor's trailer and was dragged to the finish line!
The competition is in full swing.
In the second round of the competition for Class 8, Zhang Chi led Shan Kaiquan, Cui Yu and others to the stage. The results were pretty good, but compared with the real strong classes, they were still far behind.
If you are lucky, you might win the third prize.
Zhao Jinyang from Class 7 said calmly, "The class leading the way is the class from Grade 12."
Tang Fu: "Are you confident that you can win the championship?"
Zhao Jinyang's tough face showed unparalleled confidence: "It's easy to catch."
"Because I haven't appeared yet."
In the next game, he will take the lead and break the record in one fell swoop.
Class 11.
Class monitor Xu Yan observed the battle situation. She studied it for a long time and told her classmates: "We must have tacit understanding. As long as we cooperate well, the championship will definitely be ours."
She encouraged him: "Do you remember when the first year of high school started? During the military training performance, our class 11 won the honor with its cooperation."
The Black Demon of the Black and White Demons, Gu Tai, said: "Squad Leader, don't worry, our 11 has unlimited potential."
Soon, it was game 24.
The students in Class 8 all looked at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning's expression remained unchanged as he walked towards the stadium calmly and confidently.
"Brother Nan, what do you think?" Shan Kaiquan asked.
Guo Kunnan pondered for a moment and said, "Our class may win."
There is no other reason, because Jiang Ning has created too many miracles.
Xue Yuantong: "Jiang Ning, wait for me."
After saying that, she ran towards Jiang Ning's back.
Shan Kaiquan: "What about now?"
Guo Kunnan's expression changed: "I'm not sure."
Surprisingly, Chen Siyu ran up afterwards, and then Geng Lu covered her chest and also went to participate in the competition.
Guo Kunnan was silent. It wasn’t that he looked down on women, but how could he win
Fortunately, the people behind were relatively normal, including Yang Sheng, Wang Yanyan, Pang Jiao, Huang Yuzhu, Shan Xiao, and Miao Zhe.
The long dragon on the left is from Class 7, with Zhao Jinyang as the leader. He looks at the lineup of Class 8.
I was so happy at that time, what a rotten melon and jujube!
He's not bragging, in this round he let the opponent run half of the way first, and he was able to win easily.
Unfortunately, their goal was to win the championship. Zhao Jinyang instructed: "Remember our plan!"
Bo Han responded: "Don't worry, Boss Zhao."
The long queue on the right is Class 11.
Luo Jun glanced at Pang Jiao, his legs shaking with fear: "Oh my god, Gu Tai, my fighting power has been reduced by half."
Gu Tai: "Brother, overcome, overcome."
Luo Jun: "I can't overcome myself!"
Director Yan began to issue orders:
"Everyone!"
Jiang Ning is the leader, followed by Geng Lu, and then Xue Yuantong.
"Charge!" Director Yan waved the flag!
Three long dragons rushed out instantly, and Xue Yuantong sat on the dragon's body, dazed, helpless, and desperate:
“My legs can’t touch the ground!”
