Chapter 53: The Children's Winter (2)

  "Hehe, hehe, brother and sister, come catch me! Hehe, hehe." A crisp laughter echoed through the snowy field.

  The sky of the Tang Dynasty is so blue, the winter of the Tang Dynasty, the snow is so thick, and the air of the Tang Dynasty is so fresh. Listening to the laughter of brothers and sisters in the distance, Yang Heng was a little drunk, but he still didn't have time to indulge in nostalgia. He also wanted to experience the snowy land of the Tang Dynasty. He remembered that when he was young in his previous life, one winter after it snowed, some friends said that if you twisted two iron wires on a wooden board, you could walk on the snow. Yang Heng was so foolish that he immediately went home to find a square wooden board, twisted two iron wires on it, and put it on the snowy ground outside, but somehow it still couldn't slide. At that time, the snow was very thick, and there was no TV yet. Later, when there was TV, he also knew what ski boards looked like, but the winter snow wasn't as thick as before.

  "Here I come, little ones!" Yang Heng shouted loudly, pushing off with his ski pole and sliding forward. However, it seemed easy for others to ski, but he found it difficult himself. He was no exception, just like the big kids who had lost control on their first try and fallen into the snow.

  "Hehehe, Brother Heng is also a big fool, not even as good as Little Niang at skiing!" A burst of clear laughter echoed from the front, accompanied by Little Niang's teasing voice. Only Little Niang and Chou Chou were still standing, being the smallest ones. They were using single-board skis, which were essentially toys for kids. If these toys were too complicated to play with, they wouldn't exist.

  The control of this ski was simple: one foot on the board, both hands holding the handle, and then pushing off with the other foot on the ground. The ski would slide forward quickly if the foot could keep up. Yang Heng had learned this from the kids in his previous life who used dry-land skateboards. The only difference was that there was no change in direction.

  This didn't affect the kids' interest, so at this moment, the big kids and even the adults were all watching Little Niang and Chou Chou shouting and quickly flipping their feet, rapidly sliding across the snowy ground.

  "Hey, little girl, wait till I master this skateboard, don't cry and say your skateboard is no good." Yang Heng smiled slyly, then got up from the ground and continued to practice. He was no longer in a hurry, thinking of the skiing scenes he saw on TV in his previous life. His knees slightly bent, body slightly leaning forward, then slowly pushing off with his hands, okay, moving, moving, just a bit slow."

  "Brother Yang, this is not fun. We should use the smaller skateboard." The kids were unhappy, looking at Yang's movements on the snow, feeling that it was even slower than walking, what's the fun in that? Moreover, they couldn't even move forward if they took big strides, and the skateboard was too long to be convenient.

  "You guys really don't want to play anymore? Haven't you seen that your uncles are watching from the side and they also want to play?" "We won't play, you guys be happy, you continue playing." These uncles really have no face, it seems they haven't seen the benefits of this skateboard either.

  "From now on, you don't have to skateboard anymore, the uncles said it's not fun. And aunts, you don't have to keep making gloves either, the uncles won't use them." Yang Heng shouted out loud, I want to take control of you all and make you say that my inventions are no fun.

  "Ah, fun, fun! How can something invented by my nephew not be fun? Come on, kids, since you don't want to play anymore, let us play instead." And so, the uncles shamelessly changed their tune, fearing that Yang Heng might not tell them anything in the future.

  "No giving, if you want to play, let Xiao Shu do it for you, we haven't played enough yet." Although the kids thought this thing wasn't fun, but if someone snatched it, they wouldn't give it away either.

  They learn by example, and these kids have a strong ability to imitate. Although they don't know why Yang Ge is in this pose, they think that since Yang Ge did it, there must be a reason for it. Slowly but surely, the kids are also able to slide on the snowy ground now, but for now, it's still hard to see what's so great about this game. When the adults aren't paying attention to Yang Heng, he has already slipped out of everyone's line of sight. Once you master this move, your speed will naturally increase.

  "Ah ha, be careful." Suddenly, Yang Heng appeared out of nowhere and rushed towards the children, scaring them half to death. Originally, he wanted to give them a surprise, but instead of surprise, there was plenty of fright. "Ah, Brother Heng is so fast, so fast!" Yang Heng was frightened, but the children were excitedly shouting. They had seen the benefits of the snowboard. At this time, Yang Heng had no choice, how could he brake? It was too late to think about it now, so he could only use the most suitable move - fall down. This way, he could avoid hurting anyone.

  "Ah......" With Yang Heng's long shout, he stopped tightly in front of the children with snowflakes, and at this time, the children were also frightened and didn't care about being happy anymore. How could Brother Heng fall down suddenly?

  "Brother Heng, are you okay?" Niu Zi threw away the skateboard on her feet and ran over. "Nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong. It's just that my braking technique isn't good enough yet. You guys listen up, don't be like me, you can't withstand such a crash. You must learn how to brake first."

  "Okay, we need to learn how to brake first. But how do you brake?" Yang Heng still had to figure out the braking motion himself. He was trying to recall it from memory. "Ah, yes! You see, when you're sliding like this and want to stop, you have to do it like this, like this, and then you'll come to a stop."

  So, that winter, the kids had a great time, or rather, a fun sport. The fields of Yang Heng and his four neighbors were large enough for the kids to play in, and on the snowy grounds, they would occasionally hear a soft voice saying, "Slow down, wait for me!" This was Xiaoniang, who could no longer tease the other kids because she couldn't use the big sleds. So, she had to restrict everyone's speed to accommodate her own. But as soon as she wasn't paying attention, the kids would speed up again. Meanwhile, not only did the kids learn how to ski, but also their uncles and even their dads. The aunts were eager to try too, but in the end, they didn't take action.
