Chapter 713: Still Two Brushes
He had a harmless smile on his face, but his words successfully angered Zheng Yaoxian.
"Are you kidding me?"
He felt that he had been tricked by Zhou Zixu and glared at him angrily.
"It's a misunderstanding. I just said that this is what I think. As for how Comrade Zheng understands it? I don't want to comment."
Zhou Zixu's smile deepened, but his eyes were filled with coldness, and that smile made people feel cold all over.
Qian Guoqiang originally wanted to wipe the sweat off his face with his sleeves, but after listening to their conversation, he stopped in mid-air. He wanted to take out the handkerchief from his pocket, but then he remembered Zheng Yaoxian's words and stopped moving. In the end, he simply let the sweat flow down his cheeks and ignored it.
The second event was the 400-meter special obstacle course. Since they had just finished running 10 kilometers, all the participating athletes could rest for 10 minutes before continuing with the competition.
In this way, whoever appears first will be at a disadvantage because their physical strength has not yet fully recovered, and the one who appears last will have the advantage.
Zhou Zixu ranked first, so he was naturally the first to appear. Zhou Zisong frowned and looked at him, and he seemed to be in good spirits.
Zhou Zixu moved his hands and feet, loosening up all his joints, and looked at the arena with a determined look. He took a few deep breaths to steady his breathing, and looked toward the podium. He hoped his father could come and see how his oldest son, whom he least expected, won the game.
The 400-meter obstacle course requires participants to cross all obstacles and return in the shortest time. It is a high-intensity and high-difficulty competition.
This requires the contestants to keep up with their speed, strength, and intelligence.
When it comes to the 100 meters, you have to sprint to the other side. When it comes to the 200 meters, you have to pass five-step piles, jump over deep pits, fly on low boards, climb high benches, climb high and low platforms, climb ladders, climb single-plank bridges, high board walls, and drill through barbed wire.
At the 300-meter mark, you have to jump over the low pile net, pass the obstacle board, drill through the bridge pier, pass the ladder, pass the high and low platforms, drill through the low board wall, go down the deep pit (2 meters deep), and the three-step pile.
When running 400 meters, you have to sprint 100 meters back. This series is quite a lot, but there is still a time limit. From the starter giving the order to start running to the return, you have to run within two minutes and forty seconds to pass.
Zhou Zixu's best speed is one minute and thirty-eight seconds, while Qian Guoqiang only took one minute and thirty-seven seconds in last year's competition. Don't underestimate this one second, it can completely determine victory.
Zhou Zixu had just finished running ten kilometers and was the first one out to run. His physical strength had not fully recovered, which would affect his speed.
Political Commissar Zhang frowned. This was the rule of the game and he couldn't say anything. He could only worry for Zhou Zixu.
I really wish this competition was decided by drawing lots like fighting, but that is obviously impossible.
"Ready, set, go."
The starting officer raised a small red triangular flag and shouted as it fell.
Zhou Zixu rushed out like an arrow. His long legs gave him an advantage and he was very fast in the 100-meter sprint. The following obstacles did not cause him much trouble.
He tried his best to play at his best, and everyone on the field watched him nervously.
Qian Guoqiang frowned. When Zhou Zixu came to the stadium yesterday, he saw him. At first he thought that only Zhou Zisong participated in the competition, but he didn't expect it would be the handsome officer next to him?
He admitted that he really didn't look down on him at that time, but the last ten kilometers made him realize that this kid was quite capable and actually surpassed him by five seconds. This was a failure he could not tolerate.
He underestimated his enemy, so at this moment he was looking at Zhou Zixu intently. From his actions, it could be seen that he had worked very hard.
I felt a little uneasy in my heart, and the pride in my eyes turned into solemnity.
