Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 445 Come on, Mom!

In the afternoon, they climbed the ladder for a while, and then took the cableway. Generally speaking, it was quite interesting.

The so-called sky ladder means that some iron pipes are set up on an extremely smooth rocky cliff surface, which can be stepped on and climbed up.

The cliff face is very steep, almost ninety degrees, and the rocks protrude in some places, resulting in a negative degree, which looks very challenging.

Of course, they will not just go up with bare hands like this. Everyone is tied with a rope. Even if their feet slip, they will not just fall off. Safety is still guaranteed.

Many mountaineering enthusiasts choose to climb up from here. The vertical route is the most time-saving.

In addition to labor saving, exercise decompression is also an aspect. Many people use this kind of stimulating exercise to achieve the purpose of decompression.

Looking at this climbing ladder, Bai Qian looked eager to try. After all, if she came out to play, if she didn't dare to try anything, wouldn't it be in vain?But when he looked up at the height, he was instantly frightened again.

"Up? Or not?" She hesitated and struggled for a while.

As for Cheng Xinxin?She didn't know how to be afraid at all. Anyway, with her father around, she didn't have to be afraid of anything.

Cheng He looked at Bai Qian and said, "Didn't you say last time that you are not afraid of heights? How tall is this?"

When talking about Xiaolian Mountain last time, Bai Qian also suggested that there should be a large glass bridge directly from Taohua Village to Xiaolian Mountain.

At that time, I said that with great pride!She said she was not afraid of heights and dared to walk on the glass bridge.

Bai Qian glared at him and said, "How tall is the glass bridge? How tall is this one? And there's only a little room to hold it."

Besides, she is a little woman, so why not be afraid in front of men?This man doesn't understand women at all!

Seeing a person walk by in front of her, tie the rope and start to climb, she is not ready yet.

Cheng He asked her: "for a while, am I on top, or are you on top?"

What kind of words are these... Bai Qian couldn't help but blushed and glared at him again.

Then she coughed dryly and said, "I'll go up first. With you below, I feel safer."

There was really no one behind, and the staff just watched the family helplessly.

Bai Qian took a step forward, tied the rope according to the staff's instructions, and then turned around and asked, "Then what should you do?"

What should Cheng Xinxin do?

Cheng He said: "You can go up to yours with peace of mind. Don't worry about the rest, I'm here."

When Bai Qian went up, Cheng He also started to tie himself a rope, and he specially tied a small pannier to hang Cheng Xinxin on his back.

The hill was a bit high, and Cheng Xinxin couldn't reach the top with her own strength. Cheng He tied a rope for her in the shape of a pannier, so even if she didn't grab her back hard, it wouldn't fall off.

Seeing him skillfully tying the knot, the staff were all surprised.At first they wanted to stop it, but the knot was very secure at first glance, and they couldn't object.

In fact, this is just an insurance policy. With Cheng He's current skills and speed, it is impossible for him to put the child in danger.

Cheng Xinxin lay on his back, watched him climb up step by step, and whispered in his ear, "Come on, Dad, come on, Dad! Let's surpass Mom, shall we?"

Cheng He burst out laughing, the ladder is only so narrow, it is just enough for a person to put two feet, how can it be surpassed?Are you going to step on her mother's back?
So he said to her, "Baby, let's protect Mom from behind, shall we?"

After hearing this, Cheng Xinxin raised her head and saw her mother's heels, so she shouted loudly, "Mom, come on, mom, come on..."

Cheng He immediately stopped her in a low voice: "Baby, don't yell, don't yell, don't let mom be distracted, mom is not protected by you, she is a little scared."

This kind of exercise is much safer than rock climbing. At least the feet can be completely stepped on, and the hands can be completely grasped, and there is just one grip for each step, just like climbing ordinary stairs. As long as you are not afraid of heights, generally you will not what's wrong.

Generally, in high towers or high substations, there are such ladders. Some people climb up directly without using ropes.

But after all, Bai Qian is not very courageous. If there is a sound from below that distracts her, she misses her foot, and then panics, maybe she will really slip out of her hand.

Although it is protected by a safety rope, there will be no real accidents, but if this is the case, it will always be bad.

When Cheng Xinxin heard it, her mother didn't have her own protection, so she was a little scared?At this moment, the little girl's aura of a little adult came out, and she said loudly: "Mom, don't be afraid, I will follow you below."

Cheng He couldn't help but suppress a smile and shook his head.

Bai Qian, who was a little above him, naturally heard their conversation.To be honest, seeing that the road above was almost endless, she was indeed a little scared, but when she heard the voices of Cheng He and her daughter below, she immediately felt much more at ease.

In fact, I said I was afraid, but when I really started to climb, it was not so dangerous, and there was nothing to be afraid of.After a sweaty journey, like the previous tourists, their family reached the summit safely.

When I reached the peak, I looked back and saw that I was at a high place, overlooking all the small mountains, and felt like I was in charge of my destiny. The hard work just now was really nothing.

From here, the scenery in Ohio is still very good, at least it is different from the scenery in many places in China.

On the hilltops here, there are basically tall trees growing, all kinds of fir trees, thick and tall, shaped like a tower.

Cedar trees are rich in oil, which is generally very easy to cause forest fires, so it is often seen from the news that a certain hurricane triggered a forest fire and how many days it burned.The United States has a very strong ability to fight fires in mountains and forests, and helicopters are used to assist in extinguishing fires.

Cheng He walked near the top of the mountain with the tourists in front, looked at these thick fir trees, and wondered how much such trees could be worth in such a large mountain range.

There are several families in the mountain forest who are looking after them. They usually log in the mountain or something. When tourists come, they also like to go there to have a look.

The old lumberjack was also very interesting. He made a very thick tree trunk, cut a disc similar to a chopping board and stood it there as a bullseye, and drew a red heart with paint in the middle, so that people could use an ax as a target.

The ax is a shape similar to that used by Indians. It is very small, and it is not like the big ax that Cheng He used to use. It looks a bit interesting.

People passing by also picked up the ax and threw it for a while, feeling the feeling of logging.

However, this thing is like throwing darts. It's fun for those who are good at it, but it's boring for those who are not good at it.

Not to mention hitting the red heart, he couldn't even hit the big disk. When he threw the axe, he didn't know where to throw it, which made the people around burst into laughter.

Cheng He also tried it, and without a surprise, he won the red heart and got some applause.

His current mastery of speed is unparalleled, throwing a dart is a piece of cake.After throwing away, he also encouraged Bai Qian: "Come on, play?"

The ax is very small, weighing less than a catty, and she can throw it.

Bai Qian was eager to try, but she was also a little worried that she would miss the throw.This is a character who will whine when he loses in the fight against the landlord, anyway, he is someone who can't see himself losing.

Cheng He encouraged her: "It's okay, just throw it away for fun, and you don't need money."

Cheng Xinxin also applauded her: "Mom, come on, mom, come on!"

Bai Qian plucked up the courage to throw an ax—as she expected, the ax flew somewhere.

She was so embarrassed that she covered her face with her hands and stomped her feet, wishing she could find a place to hide.

Cheng He said: "It's okay, there was someone like you just now, what's the matter..."

Seeing that she was still unhappy, he stepped forward, picked up the ax she had thrown flying, then went to the target, stuck the ax into the red heart, and said with an excited look: "Look, it's right on the head, right in the middle! Heart, well thrown."

Bai Qian was amused by him.

Cheng Xinxin clapped her hands and laughed happily when she saw her father cheating on her mother like this.And the expression on her mother's face when she looked at her was really indescribable.

Bai Qian looked embarrassed, turned around quickly, left this place, and walked with the pedestrians.

After a short walk, we arrived at a place where we took a cable car.

This park is adjacent to a tributary of the Ohio River, and the cable car goes all the way along the river. Sitting on the cable car, you can enjoy a series of scenery from the top of the mountain to along the river.

I feel that my physical strength is almost exhausted today, and now it is suitable to take the cable car for a while, and I can also go sightseeing and enjoy the scenery along the way.

Looking down from the top, it is really different.For example, there are a lot of birds flying on the top of a certain mountain. If you are on the ground, you can only see small dots, but now when you are sitting in the cable car, you can feel that those birds are close to you, within reach.

There are two types of cable cars here, box-type and open-air.The box type is just like the usual cable car, sitting inside and looking out through the glass wall.

But the open-air type is a pure zipline, fixing people with ropes, and then sliding all the way there.This looks more thrilling, and of course it is more exciting. Many people choose this way, feeling that they can have a closer contact with nature.

Cheng He naturally chose the box style, after all, Bai Qian and Cheng Xin were there.

The cable car slid through a forest full of fir trees, then slid across a wide river, and stopped on the other side of the river.Cheng Xinxin watched happily all the way.
