"Brother Nanhui, think about the bird." Li Yaxi shouted the first thing he did when he arrived at the competition venue.
Birds. Why did he want to learn high jump? It was because of birds. High jump can be likened to a bird taking off. At that moment, it touches the blue sky and white clouds. When it flies up and looks up at the sky, it feels an indescribable joy, as if it has been freed from all restraints.
He had admired his mother, a doctor, since he was a child. When his mother was wearing a white coat and running around the hospital, she looked like a bird taking off. Dai Ronghong never thought that in her son's eyes, she would be a happy little bird as a doctor. She usually smiled at patients, and her stern face was mostly directed at subordinates and students.
Recalling these scenes, Dai Nanhui's mind gradually became clearer and his breathing became steady. The sighs of the people in Guodu who had lost again seemed to disappear in his ears like smoke.
Starting again, sprinting, he didn't just look at the horizontal bar but also looked at the blue sky and white clouds. He imagined that one day he would be like his mother in the hospital, running and jumping like a bird, and even flying and flapping his wings.
Phew, this time the wind was like a light cloud rolling upwards, carrying the contestants' bodies lightly up.
The spectators on the sidelines looked up at the athletes flying high in the sky, as if they were also looking at the blue sky and white clouds.
Zhai Yunsheng's eyes darkened as he wondered where had his nephew, the instigator of the crime, gone?
(Cao Zhao: I run, I run, I was wrong——)
...
...
Referee: "Second jump successful."
The national association members on the field were cheering and telling each other to stay calm.
There are only two contestants left in the competition. The referee asks the contestants what height they want to challenge, and they must end the competition as soon as possible after lunch.
"Two meters and two centimeters." Uncle Zhai said in a steady voice.
Dai Nanhui said: "Two meters twenty-three."
This is Uncle Zhai’s maximum height as analyzed by classmate Xie. He wants to challenge for the championship.
The young man was full of vigor and vitality, so the 40-something veteran could only accompany him to the end. Uncle Zhai changed his words: "I am the same height as him."
The pole was adjusted to 2.23 meters.
"He jumped first." Uncle Zhai gave priority to the young man.
The referee agreed.
The ultimate test, the first jump, Dai Nanhui sets off.
This time no one thought he could definitely jump over it, and the cheerleaders were nervous.
When jumping, after the front half of the body passed the bar, the calf seemed to be likely to touch the bar again, and some people at the scene could not help but make anxious noises.
Xie Wanying quickly grabbed the loud speaker from Teacher Lu and shouted, "Kick!"
Hearing her voice, Dai Nanhui kicked his calves and stretched them just enough to pass the pole.
Done!
The members of the National Association sang and danced on the spot.
Uncle Zhai scratched his head with his fingers. He was in trouble. He wanted to jump first but was passed by the young man.
"Will you jump or not, Professor Zhai?" the referee asked the contestant.
After thinking it over, Zhai Yunsheng said, "I won't jump."
Mr. Xie's analysis makes sense, that is his height limit. The problem is that it has been a while since the competition started, and his physical strength is not as good as that of young people, so he may not be able to make it. Players of his age participate in competitions to have fun, and being surpassed by young people does not matter. The honor of Guodu needs to rely on young people, not on middle-aged and elderly people like him.
Dai Nanhui, who won the championship, wiped the sweat off her face with her clothes. She looked up and found that she seemed to have disappeared from the crowd, which made people feel panic.
"Brother Nanhui."
When he turned around again, he found that she had run behind him.
"Congratulations, brother." Li Yaxi smiled sweetly in the sunshine.
