I loaded the dream game

Lily replied as a matter of course.

Only then did Xia Zhi notice that she was actually wearing a cool swimsuit under her casual clothes.

It seemed that she had been prepared for this.

But, didn't we agree to row a boat? Why did we suddenly jump to learning swimming?

"That way, even if the boat capsizes, I can still swim to the other side on my own... This is the backup plan B."

As Lily spoke, she threw her skirt aside and folded her socks and stuffed them into her shoes.

"Why does it sound so unreliable?"

Also, even if there is no one else here, don't throw your clothes around, or they will be filled with sand.

Xia Zhi walked forward helplessly and helped pick up the clothes that the girl had thrown on the ground.

"Don't underestimate the potential of human beings. I have looked up information and found that in the Western calendar, there were many people who could swim across a strait that was dozens of kilometers long."

The girl proudly stated that she had done her homework on this.

Xia Zhi felt that she might have misunderstood what he meant.

I don't look down on human potential, I just look down on her.

Just because other people can do it doesn’t mean you can do it...especially if you’re a novice.

And

"Why don't you go to a swimming pool first to learn how to swim?"

"A complex and realistic environment can better push out one's potential."

As Lily spoke, she came to the beach and tentatively stretched out her toes to test the water temperature, but the sea water splashed up and submerged her ankles.

She immediately shuddered and let out a cry of "Ah", subconsciously wanting to step back, but quickly held it back.

Lily turned around and looked at Xia Zhi. She seemed to have mustered up her courage. After taking a deep breath, she simply walked into the sea.

The sea water submerged her knees, and the force brought by the rising and falling waves made her stand a little unstable, but as long as she paid a little attention, she could still keep her body steady.

It seems that there is nothing to be afraid of.

Rather, the cold sea water and the rough sand under her feet made Lily, who seldom went to the beach, feel particularly novel.

"Xiazhi, come down quickly!" She turned around and greeted the boy happily.

"..."

Looking at the petite girl with red-blond hair waving at him in the sea, Xia Zhi felt something inexplicably in his heart.

Could it be that she just wanted to take this opportunity to go to the beach and play in the water?

While he was thinking this, he saw a wave hit Lily's head and the girl disappeared from the sea.

Summer Solstice:…

.......

Chapter 1162 Summer Solstice: Why not just not do it?

“Ahem…ha…ha…”

After coughing the sea water out of her lungs with great effort, Lily collapsed on the beach, gasping for breath.

It sounds nice to call it "stress resistance training", but when the pressure comes, people just collapse.

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

"That's why I need you to help me."

After catching her breath a little, Lily stood up from the beach, took a deep breath, and cheered herself up again.

"Okay, let's get on with it!"

This indomitable spirit really gives me the feeling of a brave warrior.

"We'll try to get it done in the morning so we can officially start the action in the afternoon!" Lily said with great momentum.

"So your action plan for today includes study time as well?"

Xia Zhi couldn't help but complain.

I still have so much confidence in myself.

"What can I do? Tomorrow is Monday. If I miss today, I'll have to wait another week."

Lily walked towards the sea while pouting.

On the road to exploring the truth of the world, going to school has become the biggest obstacle.

Xia Zhi thought, and before he could pay attention, he saw another wave coming and submerging the girl's figure again.

"..."

……

"Try to keep your body level with the water... Then move your limbs as I taught you just now... Remember to point your head toward the other side of your paddling arm to breathe."

Xia Zhi supported the girl's petite body and helped her adjust her swimming posture in the sea.

"Yeah, I see...it's very simple."

Lily tried to move her arms and legs, creating white waves on the sea.

Sure enough, this level of study is nothing to a genius like her.

She thought proudly, and turned back to look at the boy proudly.

"How's it going? Summer Solstice?"

The posture is quite standard, but...

Xia Zhi tried to loosen up his hands a little

Without any hindrance, the girl sank completely, leaving only a string of bubbles floating on the sea surface...

“Puff… cough cough…”

After being pulled out of the sea by the boy, Lily coughed violently twice, with an expression as if she had been saved.

Sure enough, isn't it too difficult to start freestyle swimming directly? Xia Zhi thought.

...How about starting with the doggy paddle?

Speaking of...

"Didn't you learn to swim in swimming lessons at school?"

"Of course I have learned it!"

Lily retorted nonchalantly

"I can also swim ten meters on a floating board, and three meters freestyle~"

I see. So you decided to start with freestyle because you already have the basics?

only……

"When my sister first started learning to swim, she could swim three meters just by splashing her feet," Xia Zhi complained.

"Why do you use your sister as an example?"

Lily puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction and tried to flatten her body to swim again. Xia Zhi saw this and supported her body in time, so that she did not sink into the water again.

"Strange...why can't the human body float naturally in water?"

After a few more attempts, she still couldn't naturally keep herself above water, Lily muttered in confusion.

Xia Zhi felt that she might have forgotten the fact that humans are terrestrial creatures.

"How about just putting on a swimming ring?"

After thinking about it, he made a suggestion.

"It's too dangerous for someone who can't swim to rely on a swimming ring in the rough sea." Lily shook her head and said.

It's really strange that she even knows how to write the word "dangerous".

Noticing the boy's surprised gaze, Lily puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction: "Why are you looking at me like that? At least I took all the safety measures before I started practicing, right?"

Xia Zhi looked around but didn't find the so-called "safety measures" she mentioned.

and many more?

He lowered his head and looked at himself, and fell silent.

"…The security measures you're referring to, aren't they referring to me?"

The girl's cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't refute it, which was considered as her tacit agreement.

"Clatter, crash, crash -"

She lowered her head again and buried it in the water. With the help of Xia Zhi, she continued to swing her slender white limbs vigorously, creating waves on the sea.

Although it can be seen that she wants to work hard, judging from her current rate of progress, it is obviously impossible for her to complete her studies within her originally planned time limit.

If she could only swim three meters at the beginning, she could probably swim about four meters now if she tried hard... After all, she had made some progress after choking on so much saliva, especially in terms of holding her breath.

If you hold it in longer, you should be able to struggle a little further.

"Why not just go across the bridge?" Xia Zhi asked.

"That's the backup plan C."

Lily raised her head from under the water again, took a few breaths, and then answered.

Xia Zhi felt that this backup plan was much more reliable than her original plan.

Although it seemed impossible to her, from the perspective of an ordinary person, if she wanted to get to the other side of the wall, compared to her idea of ​​going through the wall from underwater, the plan of going directly from the bridge to the wall and then climbing over the wall would obviously have a much higher success rate.

But, if you climb over the wall...

Xia Zhi couldn't help but recall the girl's performance on the top of the mountain yesterday.

"...Are you afraid of heights?" he asked after hesitating for a moment.

"..."

Lily's expression froze for a moment, and she looked away guiltily.

It was said right.

Xia Zhi thought.

.......

Chapter 1163: Furong Yuna is not a hero

Until the end, Lily still couldn't learn to swim.

Although according to her own words, she was almost an excellent student in school, but at least in terms of athletic talent, she was much worse than Victoria.

Considering that there was only a one-day "window period"... and she had to go to school tomorrow, Lily finally gave up her plan to study. After returning to the shore to repack her luggage, she tried her best to push the boat out of the shallow tank.

"Anyway, you're still here, right?"

It looks like they have given up. Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

Without even having time to eat lunch, the girl pulled him onto the inflatable boat and officially began her journey to explore the boundaries of the world.

"Wouldn't it be better to just ask for leave?"

Sitting on the swaying inflatable boat, Xia Zhi took a bite of the rice ball that the girl brought for lunch and suggested out of curiosity.

"No... that's not possible. I've already asked too many times this semester. Besides, it's almost the end of the semester. The teacher will definitely not agree... huh..."

Lily shook her head and answered breathlessly while paddling.

It turns out he is already a habitual offender.

Xia Zhi thought to himself and took another bite of the rice ball in his hand. It was filled with egg yolk... He didn't know if it was made by the girl herself, but it tasted pretty good anyway.

"Is it really okay for you to just sit there and not come to help?"
