Chapter Twenty-One: Beautiful Memories

Pei Ke was the first to flip over, his movements nimble and agile. When he gripped the net cable, his forearm flexed slightly, his small muscles bulging, exuding youthful energy.

Shu Lin had a feeling from the beginning that something bad was going to happen, since many girls are timid and climbing up and down such a high place would indeed be difficult for them.

Sure enough, something bad happened.

Gantang, who had been quiet and well-behaved throughout the journey, turned out to be afraid of heights. After climbing to the top, her calves trembled uncontrollably, and she dared not climb over. She tried several times but to no avail, so she had to stay where she was and was unfortunately eliminated.

After traversing the mountain, we arrived at the last project: crossing the Jinsha River. Below was a small lake, with a bridge made of woven netting spanning its surface. The netting was so dense that there was no possibility of slipping and falling through. However, the bridge swayed as we walked, which is where some students gave up.

Shu Lin called the remaining team members over and encouraged them not to be afraid. This time, he didn't go first, but planned to stay until the end, watching everyone reach the other side safely before leaving, and let Pei Ke go first.

Pei Ke had no objections, straightened his clothes, and stepped onto the net bridge. As soon as he stepped on, he felt a violent shaking, his whole body swaying from side to side and up and down with the rise and fall of the net, which made the people on the shore look on with fright.

Su Xun pursed her lips; this was indeed somewhat frightening.

Although it looked dangerous, thankfully nothing bad happened. Several people had already crossed, and even Song Lisha, who had been grumbling the whole way, stopped causing trouble and carefully moved across little by little.

She quickly arrived at Su Xun's place and mentally cheered herself up.

It's okay. We've already overcome so many difficulties. There's only one last project left. Don't mess it up!

She took a deep breath and slowly placed one foot on the ground, feeling a sway. After regaining her balance, she placed the other foot on the ground as well, and her whole body began to shake violently as if out of control. This reminded her of a small boat bobbing up and down on the sea with the waves.

In fact, Su Xun was shocked by her own thoughts, because she actually found the feeling of being uncontrollably swaying quite fun.

So he grew bolder and took a few more steps forward.

"Bang bang"

The sudden gunshot caught everyone off guard. They instinctively crouched down, only then realizing that Su Xun was still standing on the net.

Looking up, Su Xun was completely unaffected, continuing as before. Upon hearing the gunshot, he immediately crouched down, then stood up again after a while, the entire sequence of movements flowing smoothly like water.

The fact that Su Xun, who usually seemed quite timid and cowardly, could be so calm surprised her classmates. After everyone came over, some even praised Su Xun, which made Su Xun feel a little embarrassed. She had only been scared because she thought it was fun.

Moreover, Su Xun knew that she wasn't actually that timid. She was just not good at socializing and usually hid behind others, which gave people the impression that she was timid.

The afternoon's walk along the Long March route came to an end. Some people found it exciting and interesting, while others found it boring. Everyone had their own opinion, but it was true that everyone was dirty and tired. Everyone took longer to shower than usual that day. The bathhouse was noisy with laughter and reminiscing about the day's experiences.

Regardless of whether these activities are fun or not, they become enjoyable when done with classmates. Many years later, they will remember the experience and understand why the older students were so excited when they talked about the event.
