"Everyone, listen, I am your commander now. Immediately move the dragon boat behind the professional group. When the competition starts later, we will set off with the professional group!"

Lu Cheng shouted loudly.

The people on the dragon boat looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Lucheng, this isn't right!"

Xuan Yi asked.

"What's wrong? The rules of the competition only stipulate that our non-professional team should start at the back, but they don't say that the start time must be postponed as well!"

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he hit the drum head hard with both hands.

"Dong dong—"

Xuan Yi had no choice but to do as he said and move his rear end.

The oarsmen on both sides rowed the wooden oars in their hands unevenly.

Amidst the exclamations, the dragon boat sailed out slowly until the high dragon head at the front touched the red line of the starting point of the non-professional group.

—————————————————————————————————————

"boom!"

With the sound of salutes from the shore, the Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Race on the Qianchi River officially begins.

When the more than 20 ships of the professional group received the order, they flew out like arrows.

"Dong dong dong—"

Lu Cheng banged the drum head with all his strength.

"Army attack!"

The rowers on both sides immediately started paddling, and this small dragon boat followed closely behind the professional group and crossed the starting line.

The TV station helicopter hovering overhead seemed to have noticed a small anomaly here.

"Look, everyone! There is a non-professional dragon boat that seems to have violated the rules and set off early!"

The host said.

"Well, actually, the rules don't prohibit them from doing this... Oh, now the dragon boats from other non-professional groups have also started to move together! Now on the river, there are colorful dragon boats racing with thousands of sails, it's a spectacular scene!"

—————————————————————————————————————

"Hurry up! Hurry up! The ones behind are catching up!"

Lu Cheng was sweating profusely and beating the war drum frantically.

His mood soon became contagious, and everyone in Longzhou was extremely nervous.

Everyone rowed hard, but the speed of the dragon boat did not increase much.

"It's not like that! It's not like that!"

Mo Ziyun stood up hurriedly and loudly tried to dissuade him.

At this time, newcomers on both sides were constantly chasing after them, pushing them further and further away.

"The rhythm of drumming must be even, the paddling must be consistent, and the directions of the front and rear tips cannot be in the same direction. The wake of the big ship in front will have an impact. If the speed is too fast, it is easy to be involved in the wake!"

Mo Ziyun explained.

However, at this moment, the dragon boat's slender body suddenly froze, as if it had hit an obstacle, and then started from the dragon's head and turned around at an angle.

"Oops! The boat is going to capsize!"

Kuroda Zhigao was shocked.

"It's not capsizing! It's the wake of the big ship that forms waves. Just slow down!"

Mo Ziyun immediately discouraged those who were about to jump off the ship.

"Slow! Slow down!"

Lu Cheng shouted while continuing to beat the drum.

Xiao Chu stood up and pushed him, and the drumstick fell into the boat.

"I told you to slow down! You still play the drum!"

"Sorry! I'm a little too excited!"

Lu Cheng touched his head in embarrassment.

—————————————————————————————————————

When the direction of the dragon boat was adjusted again, everyone was soaked with water and sat slumped in the boat, watching the competitors in front of them take the lead.

"I just said we can't win! We're in last place, it's worse than I thought!"

Lu Cheng was a little disappointed.

"Now is not the time to talk about this! The game is not over yet! We still have a chance!"

Xuan Yi moved his rear tip and directed everyone to paddle.

"I'll count one, two, three! Let's work hard together!"

"One two... three! One two... three!"

Everyone shouted the slogan in unison, and the dragon boat started moving again, heading towards the finish line.

The live broadcast on the air is still continuing.

"This dragon boat that jumped the gun seems to have broken down. This story tells us that haste makes waste!"

The host explained with reference to classics.

"They are now on the road again! Will there be a dark horse miracle of being the last to arrive first?"

Another person becomes aware of a new situation.

"Oh, what's going on! The professional teams ahead seem to be in trouble! Where the water and the sky meet, it seems that another water wave is forming across the river. Now the professional teams are turning around to avoid it!"

The host exclaimed.

—————————————————————————————————————

"Dong dong dong—"

Lu Cheng beat the drum again, this time the rhythm was much gentler.

The dragon boat moved forward steadily, constantly surpassing the non-professional groups on both sides.

"We're in the top ten!"

Mo Ziyun looked back and forth, made some calculations, and shouted excitedly.

"Great! If you work harder, maybe you can surpass the last place in the professional group!"

Lu Cheng looked at the big ship behind him not far away.

"Hey! What's going on? The ship started to turn around!"

Kuroda Supreme said strangely.

"The boat in front also started to turn around. Is this race a return race?"

Xiao Chu said doubtfully.

"Impossible, it's not stated in the rules of the game! No matter what! Now is our chance! Rush over!"

Lu Cheng beat the drum head harder and harder.

This small boat parted the white waves on the river and moved forward rapidly.

Some small boats that hurriedly turned around collided with the big ship. The dragon boat capsized and all the people on it fell into the water. Fortunately, they had life jackets on them and they quickly climbed onto the big ship.

"Lucheng, why do I feel something is wrong!"

Xiao Chu said worriedly.

—————————————————————————————————————

"Viewers! It seems that there is an error in today's tide forecast. Now a new round of high tide has begun in the Qianchi River, and the height is even higher than the previous spring tide!"

"The organizers of the Dragon Boat Races have made the decision to interrupt the competition!"

On the helicopter, the host shouted loudly.

A strong wind blew in the sky at some point, the helicopter swayed, and the roaring sound made the host's voice muffled.

"The weather really changes at any time! It looks like it's going to rain soon!"

"Oh, look, there is another boat on the river heading towards the finish line! But now the finish line has been covered by the tide!"

"This is so dangerous! They don't seem to know what's going on!"

The hosts' voices were full of worry.

—————————————————————————————————————

"Turn around! Turn around quickly!"

On a dragon boat that was sliding past them, the paddlers all stood up and waved their hands to signal for their side to turn back.

Lu Cheng looked at it with disdain and continued to beat the drum.

"These guys! They were the ones who laughed at us just now! Now they are trying to do these little tricks!"

Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"We have now surpassed the professional group and become number one among all ships!"

Kuroda Supreme waved his hands excitedly.

"This is not normal!"

Xiao Chu keenly sensed something was wrong and immediately stood up.

"Lucheng, look there!"

Her face turned pale instantly.

Lu Cheng followed her gaze and was stunned.

"A mirage?"

"Tsunami?"

Everyone stood up one after another and looked at the overwhelming wave rolling in, which was more than ten meters high!

"What are you still doing? Turn around quickly!"

Xiao Chu became anxious.

"That's too late!"

Mo Ziyun opened his mouth and said.

"What should we do?"

Lu Cheng asked.

"If we wait for the dragon boat to be smashed to pieces by the strong tide, we are likely to be scratched by the broken wood chips. We should abandon the boat immediately and jump into the river!"

After Mo Ziyun finished speaking, he arranged the life jacket.

"Are we going to swim in a tsunami this high?"

Lu Cheng said with a bitter face,

"There is nothing we can do about this!"

After Mo Ziyun finished speaking, he was the first to jump towards the water.

"Tons—tons—tons—"

People on the boat jumped into the water one after another, and finally only Lu Cheng and Xiao Chu were left.

"Shall we dance?"

Xiao Chu asked.

"you jump i jump!"

Lu Cheng replied.

Xiao Chu looked back at the big wave in front of him, turned around and jumped in.

"Hey...I'm not very good at swimming..."

Lu Cheng's legs were trembling a little and he muttered softly.

"Crash-"

A huge wave roared past in an instant.

"ah-"

Lu Cheng felt that the world was spinning, and the waves violently hit his face, like a pair of giant hands pushing him under the water.

"Xingtian! Help!"

Two fingers stretched out from under the huge waves, crossed them together, and snapped their fingers.

—————————————————————————————————————

"Oh, we saw that on the small boat at the front, a crew member and the boat were swept under the water. Now the fragments of the dragon boat are floating, but we didn't see that person!"

"The rescuers are on their way, I really hope he is okay!"

The host clasped his hands together and prayed.

"Lucheng! Lucheng!"

Xiao Chu's voice sounded near and far in my ears.

Lu Cheng's head was so dizzy that he could hardly feel his body, and there was gurgling water in his throat.

"Xiao Chu!"

He responded with difficulty.

"Lucheng, I see you! Grab my hand!"

Xiao Chu jumped down from the water, stretched out his hand, and paddled in front of Lu Cheng's eyes.

However, just when the two people's fingertips were about to touch, a turbulent flow rushed from the side, sweeping up debris and hitting Xiao Chu's forehead, rushing her body dozens of meters away!

"No! Xiao Chu!"

Lu Cheng exclaimed.

At this time, a red object in the sky dragged flames and fell into the river.

Ten seconds later, with a "bang" sound, a steel warrior holding a woman rose up from the water.

"Oh my God, that's a superhero, Captain Sky! He's here! He saved a girl!"
Chapter completed!
