Festival of the King of Elves

Haitong couldn't understand it, because even if he was a time traveler, his memories of inheriting this identity were limited to living in a small town in Mengyuan Town, and his knowledge was not extensive.

Seeing that he didn't have a sense of crisis, Xiao Xiang couldn't help but explain: "Do you think Qingyue Suzune is the daughter of the leader of Baiyun Gym, so she is strong enough?"

"Ah" Haitong was stunned for a moment, recalling, then shook his head and replied honestly: "I don't think she is strong, but she is better than ordinary newcomers."

Xiao Xiang just wanted to retaliate against this arrogant boy, but then he remembered something and was speechless.

Originally, he wanted to use Qingyue Suzune as an example to make Kaitong understand that Suzoshi Mengfang might be stronger than Qingyue Suzune, but recalling that the black-haired boy in front of him was No. 1 in the rookie competition, and completely tortured him in the real virtual battle room. In the past ten games, he was still worried about something.

After thinking about it, Xiao Xiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I hope you can create another miracle."

Haitong shook his head, thinking that Mr. Xiao was a nice person, but his brain had intermittent short circuits, which was quite inexplicable sometimes.

When they returned to a few people, Mr. Guo Lao had already come out.

He was standing on the threshold. His hair was gray, but he was tall and slightly hunched, but he stood very firmly.

The entire Menping was crowded with people at this time.

The old man held a microphone in his hand and said in a calm voice: "First of all, let me introduce myself. Those of you who are familiar with me or not, you can call me Mr. Guo. I don't like nonsense, so I will get straight to the point. I will A test is assigned to all of you. Those who complete it will be eligible to enter the next round of tests. For the first round of tests, you need to go down the mountain from the stairs on the right, then go north and go to Chunhui Garden to buy a Qinghua Cake. , bring it back to me before I wake up the next day. The requirements are very simple, that is, you cannot use external force, including riding elves, and participants are only allowed to do the following."

The rules of the activity were so simple. After Guo Lao finished speaking, he turned around and entered the house, ignoring the noise of the remaining people.

The man in a black suit quickly came out to support the scene. In fact, he had nothing to say. Although the old man's words were brief, they were clear and concise.

Several people on Haitong's side also quickly began to discuss countermeasures.

"Where is Chunhui Garden?"

"I'm checking on my phone"

"I know."

Haitong asked, Xiao Xiang answered, and then Qingyue Lingyin interrupted the two of them.

She answered honestly: "Chunhui Garden is in the northern suburbs of Xiangshi, not very far from Xiangshi. Qinghua cake is very famous and delicious, but it is also quite expensive. My family usually buys some during the holidays."

Xiaolan asked curiously: "How much does it cost per portion?"

Qingyue Suzune thought for a while and answered uncertainly: "It should be less than 1 alliance coins."

Except for the two cousins ​​named Suzusei, the three people on Haitong's side were dumbfounded.

Quite expensive, less than 1

The silver-haired girl's words made the three of them deeply understand that poverty really limits their imagination.

Xiao Xiang patted the black-haired boy on the shoulder and said, "Come on, young man. I'll take you out of the scenic spot, and then you can do your best."

Haitong looked unhappy and nodded silently.

He was looking down at his mobile phone at this time. The online map showed that the distance from his current location to Chunhui Garden was 58 kilometers.

He pointed his phone in front of the other people and took a picture. The total distance back and forth was three digits, and the expressions of the other three participants of the appropriate age suddenly changed.

Haitong himself didn't care, he just looked at Xiaolan beside him.

She was a little confused and didn't quite understand the concept of distance.

He stopped trying to persuade her. Xiaolan was not a flower in the greenhouse, so there was no need to be overprotective.

"Let's go."

The first one to set off was Kiyoshi Suzune. After saying hello, she started walking in front.

"Ah."

Haitong responded, glanced at Xiaolan, and followed her.

He is not a very selfish person, and he will not feel that it is a loss if he gives this opportunity to Xiaolan and Qingyue Suzune.

Xiaolan is one of our own, and if both of them participate, it means two opportunities, which is of course a good thing.

As for Suzune, Kaitong has no prejudice against her. He feels that a test like this requires competition. As long as the competition system is fair, then what is his will not be able to escape, and it is not something he cannot force.

No matter what, just try your best to get it.

Walking is a tiring thing.

Haitong still had some selfish motives. At the beginning, he deliberately fell behind Ling Yin and Meng Fang in front.

He quietly bit Xiao Lan's ear, which made the blue ponytail girl's ears wet and her heart itchy, making it difficult to concentrate on listening.

"This first round of tests will be very hard. At normal walking speed, we will probably have to walk for nearly 20 hours non-stop. We must learn to save and conserve our energy. The first key is breathing rhythm. Xiaolan, you have to listen carefully. good"

Haitong passed on her learning and practical experience as a lover of fitness and outdoor activities to her childhood sweethearts without reservation, and did not broadcast it to the teenagers and girls in front of her.

When Xiaolan started going downhill, she felt uncomfortable walking at first, but after following Haitong's advice, things changed.

When going downhill, she placed her center of gravity on the soles of her feet, lowered her center of gravity, and let her body sag slightly. She felt that her body would no longer speed up the pace unconsciously, causing her to become tired all of a sudden like before.

When walking uphill, your center of gravity should be on the front of your feet and your body should lean forward slightly.

She remembered Haitong's tips, no matter going up or downhill, she should pay attention to keeping the balance and verticality of the body's midline. For sections with steep slopes, walk in a zigzag shape, avoid going straight up and down, and go slower, which can save a lot of energy.

Surprisingly, Qingyue Suzune also did a good job on the way out of the scenic mountain road.

Her movements and postures were not as obvious as Xiaolan's, but they were naturally and gracefully in line with the key points mentioned by Haitong, keeping the midline of her body vertical.

When Lingxing Mengfang was halfway there, she realized that there was something strange about the three people around her.

"Why are you walking so slowly?"

"Mengfang, if you walk like this, you will get tired soon."

Kiyoshi Suzune was much kinder and immediately taught her distant cousin some of her personal experiences gained over the years.

Haitong and Xiaolan were already more than ten meters behind, walking slowly and unhurriedly.

According to him, on this scenic mountain road with frequent uphill and downhill slopes, more attention should be paid to saving energy. It doesn't matter if you go slower. When you reach flat ground, you can speed up.

"Brother Haitong, look, someone is leaving in a car."

Xiaolan saw a car passing by. The young man in the back seat gave them a sneer expression as he passed by. It was the blue-haired young man Chang Gang from before.

"Just sit down. We don't know what the external force standards that Mr. Guo requires are. We can only implement them according to the standards we think we have and go all the way."

Haitong didn't say much, and he wasn't sure either.

This is a test, and the initiator is Mr. Guo Lao.

The purpose of the test may be to test whether the person being tested dares to break the conventional thinking. Perhaps the standard of external force only depends on the standard considered by the person being tested. In other words, if riding in a car does not count as an external force, then completing the test in a car will also count as passing the test.

It is also possible that according to the way of thinking of ordinary people, all kinds of vehicles are included without relying on external force, whether it is a variety of cars, or even riding elves, which Guo Lao clearly mentioned, is also prohibited.

It's possible that Guo Lao deliberately blurred the rules and took the prohibition of riding elves as a smokescreen.

No matter which possibility it was, it didn't matter to Haitong.

"We just follow Cong's heart. We think what's best is what we do, so we try our best to do that."

Haitong patted the girl next to her on the back, feeling a little skinny. She thought that if other pastries were not expensive at her destination, she would buy some for her and her elf to try.

After all, half of the prize money won in the rookie competition belongs to the elves.

Thinking of this, Haitong suddenly had an idea in his mind and made up his mind.

When this test is over, he will distribute some of the prize money to his elves and keep it under his care, but allow them to use it freely to buy what they want.
