Chapter 347： Dragon Boat Race

Pei Xiu was watching it for the first time, so there was no way to compare it, but it was really lively today.

Mrs. Qiu said with a smile, "I heard that your eldest is in Yunzhong Academy and also participated in the dragon boat race?"

"Yeah, with so many people, I can't see where others are."

"It's good to know that it's on the academy's boat. My son has also been sent to Yunzhong Academy, and he won't come with me today. He said he wants to stay in the academy's team and see it up close."

"Me too, they are young people who like to stay with young people."

At this moment, the sound of firecrackers continued again, which meant that the students were all ready.

"It's about to start, it's about to start." Someone familiar with the process was calling.

When they heard it, they also watched carefully.

After the gong sounded on the river bank, the gong and drummers on the eight dragon boats beat the gongs and drums closely.

After all, friendship comes first and competition comes second.

The students on the dragon boat all wore the short shirts of the academy, and the colors were different. From a distance, you could tell which academy it was.

After the firecracker crackled again, the gong sounded again after a while. This was the beginning of the gong.

The Huairou River dragon boat race has only really started now.

The drummer was beating the big drum "dong dong dong".

The students shouted "hehehe" and rowed the oars according to the rhythm.

The drummer is the power source of the dragon boat. The drums are used to convey the information of progress.

The students rowed according to the drummer's drumbeat, plunged the paddle into the water and pulled it back.

Dragon boating is an extreme physical exercise.

The head is the first row of rowers, the bow is raised, and the position is high and narrow. The head and radius transmit the drummer's message, and the oar is the most powerful rower.

Only when the rowers and paddles are together can they form the greatest combined force to rush forward.

The helmsman controls the forward direction of the ship with a ten-meter-long rudder.

The eight dragon boats marched forward bravely, and the scene was very lively.

At present, the dragon boat of Guozijian is far ahead, and the dragon boat of Yunzhong Academy is far behind.

The people on the shore have been shouting the name of the academy they are familiar with. It was not until the dragon boat entered the curve that no trace was seen, and the lively shouting stopped.

But the scene on the river bank was still very popular, and a group of people whispered about which dragon boat would win first.

"What happened to this Yunzhong Academy? Didn't everyone have enough to eat, or did they come here to paddle and play?"

"Yeah, no matter what a group of scholars draw, Lao Tzu can swim faster than them."

"My nephew went to school in Yunzhong Academy, and I even spent two dice to bet on the top three in Yunzhong Academy in order to cheer."

"Don't mention it, I've spent a tael of silver betting on the top three of Yunzhong Academy, and I've lost all my money. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't be greedy for the odds. It's safe to choose any one of the six schools of Guozijian, although it only pays 0.5 to one. "

"I just saw a fool on the shore betting on the number one place in Yunzhong Academy, betting a full twenty taels."

"Isn't this a fool from somewhere? Yunzhong Academy hasn't been in the top three for three years, let alone the first. It's estimated that it hasn't been in the top three for ten years."

Everywhere people are discussing the performance of Yunzhong Academy, those who bet are regretful, those who don't bet are lucky.

The students of Qingfeng Academy stood with them, also making fun of them, "Are you guys from Yunzhong Academy planning to abstain directly? It's as slow as a duck, hahaha."

The students of Yunzhong Academy were all ashamed and embarrassed. After all, they couldn't even bear it.

The contrast with previous years is too great. In the past, even if I lost, I did my best and my skills were not as good as others. It's not like this moment, as if I was giving up on myself...

Listening to the teasing of Qingfeng Academy, they couldn't even say what to say. I couldn't help but complain about what the **** those people were doing, didn't they even pay attention to the game?

Gu Pei Xiu was also surprised by the performance of Yunzhong Academy in the stands. What's going on? Why is the whole team paddling, shouldn't they go all out?

"What's wrong with Yunzhong Academy? Why are you paddling slowly? The drums are not loud." Mrs. Qiu looked a little surprised.

Madam Yang rolled her eyes and thought, "They're planning to keep their stamina and wait for the second round of battle?"

When the people around heard what Mrs. Yang said, they also agreed, "Yes, it should be like this, otherwise the abnormal performance of Yunzhong Academy cannot be explained."

"Haha, this year's Yunzhong Academy is quite interesting. I know what to choose, and I have to use my brains."

Pei Xiu also felt that it should be, otherwise it would not be so abnormal. I have to say that this is also a way to turn defeat into victory.

Anyway, I'm not sure of the top three, so I might as well take a gamble.

Others on the river bank also thought of the intention of Yunzhong Academy, and couldn't help but look forward to the second game.

There was another sound of gongs and drums in the distance, getting closer and clearer.

The people excitedly shouted cheers for the academies where they were betting.

The dragon boat is coming from far and near.

The brave who meet in a narrow road wins!

When passing under the bridge, Simen Academy had caught up from its original position, and was far ahead. The next thing was math, followed by Taixue.

Victory was in sight, and the faces of those who bet on these academies couldn't help but bloom with joy.

The dragon boat at the back was still chasing after him, making the last effort.

At this time, Yunzhong Academy slowly emerged from the corner, still paddling slowly, with a leisurely expression.

The audience was speechless.

This is a game, so how calm is it?

At this time, the sound of firecrackers came from the starting point, and the first place was born!

The starting point is also the end point. When the four disciplines broke through the finish line, the surrounding cheers were deafening.

Maths followed closely, and Taixue was the third~ and the top three were all included, and the students of Guozijian were full of joy.

On the opposite bank, the students of Qingfeng Academy and Yunzhong Academy didn't look very good. Their two academies have been at the bottom for many years.

Yunzhong Academy won the fourth place in the first round last year, which is a little better.

At this moment, all the dragon boats have reached the end, except for Yunzhong Academy, which is still at the end of the crane.

"YuYuYu~"

When passing under the bridge, the people along the way were disappointed and appealed to them~

Scholars are thin-skinned. Although they were prepared in their hearts, they were really embarrassed when faced with the disdain of so many people.

Even Zhou Yong, who has always been thick-skinned and big-hearted, couldn't help blushing in embarrassment.

They lowered their heads, hoping to quickly row this small section of the river, and the people in the whole city stared at them jokingly, which really tested their endurance.

The gongs and drums were still beating at an unhurried pace, and they could only follow the frequency of the gongs and drums.

It has already been decided like this, and there is nothing to regret. No matter how hard you try now, it will only make people laugh more.

As long as the next round can be pulled back, it can be regarded as a heavy burden at the moment.
