After more than two hours of climbing, the members arrived at the first rest stop. From here onwards, they needed to carry helmets and safety ropes all the way. There were seemingly bottomless cliffs on both sides.
It can probably completely cure everyone's fear of heights.
While walking forward in the rain, everyone's physical strength was slowly exhausted; Ms. Ikuta, who said she wanted to protect Oda at the beginning, was also gasping for breath step by step. The most important thing was that her breathing sound also had a bel canto function.
Makes you laugh out loud.
However, there was an outlier among the five. Oda, who had controlled the size of his steps and breathing from the beginning, did not expend a lot of energy, nor was he frightened by the scary-looking cliffs on both sides.
He looked to both sides with interest and pointed down to let the photographer take a picture of the scenery.
"Aren't you scared, Oda-san?" the guide couldn't help but ask after seeing Oda's appearance.
"I'm not afraid." Oda admitted decisively, "Don't you think it's great to look like this? It would be better if there was a bungee jumping point or a cable car point here. Thinking about being able to jump down in such a beautiful scenery would make you feel good.
very excited."
Three black lines hung from the guide's head.
Perhaps aware of Oda's boldness, the guide decisively let Oda take the lead in crossing the iron bridge in the next move - compared to other people's method of crossing the iron bridge by bending down and crawling step by step while holding on to the handrails.
, Oda seemed particularly comfortable. She accurately stepped on the steel bars at the strongest connection on the iron bridge, walked straight over, and even put her head to the edge of the railing and used the GoPro on her head to record what she saw.
Come to the scenery that is extremely beautiful and in the eyes of others extremely exciting.
Finally, in front of the members was a chain consisting of one or two seven-meter-long iron rings. The members were about to climb up from here to reach the place of worship. Without waiting for the guide's arrangement, Oda took the initiative to raise his hand and became the first
A crab eater.
"One, two, one, two." It was not as scary as imagined. The members below were all shouting and worried because of Oda's too fast speed. Oda himself had no problem at all; the exciting emotions were very disturbing to other members.
For people, it may be a trigger of fear, but for Miss Oda, this emotion is like a stimulant, allowing her to explode with more power while keeping her brain awake.
With admiration and shock in his eyes, Oda arrived at this somewhat dilapidated small shrine very smoothly. But maybe because Oda's climbing process was too smooth, it made the other four people feel scared.
I don’t know if you have ever had such an experience. When faced with a difficult problem, if a person with a similar level to you spends a lot of time to solve it and finally solves it, this will give you the motivation to solve the problem; but when a
People who are much better than you have solved it very easily. If you still say "don't be afraid of it being very simple", it will kill your desire to solve this problem.
"How about I..." Qiu Yuan really wanted to take the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere, but Nishino raised his hand first and stood up, "As a Ter, I should have been the first to board, but Xiaoichi did.
Then I can't fall behind." Although the smile on her face was no different from usual, the fear in her heart could be seen from the slightly trembling hands holding the iron ring.
"Come on Na-chan!" Akimoto shouted loudly, and Nishino turned his head and smiled at her after hearing Akimoto's words, his eyes full of determination. Although Nishino Nanase usually looks soft, but when
When she decides to do something, she will burst out with infinite power.
Akimoto suddenly felt that at this point, Nishino and Oda were inexplicably similar.
"Na-chan, come on!" Akimoto, who was thinking like this, suddenly heard a somewhat distant shout. He looked up and saw Oda, who had climbed into the shrine, sticking his head out and looking at Nishino and shouting loudly.
, as if nothing had happened between the two of them before, as if the two were still the best friends they were when they first met.
During the fireworks display, Akimoto and Oda said that she and Nishino needed an opportunity, maybe an opportunity to reconcile, maybe... and this opportunity, maybe today.
Suddenly, a gust of mountain wind blew by, and the already swaying iron chain swayed even more. Nishino let out a scream, and clenched the iron ring with heavier strength with both hands, for fear of slipping; while squatting in the cave.
Oda also had a nervous look on his face, frowning and shouting "Hold on!" while trying to help Nishino stabilize the chain, but was stopped by the guide because it was too dangerous.
"With the safety rope attached, there will be no safety problems." The guide comforted Oda, "Although this section of the road seems difficult, anyone who is willing to climb can successfully pass it. After all, this is a prayer to God.
God will watch all your efforts in heaven as you go along the road of your dreams." At this point, the guide paused and continued to add: "How about you trust her a little bit?"
"Yes, you should believe her." Oda whispered to himself, but still stared at Nishino carefully, for fear that she might make a mistake.
"Are you two good friends?" the guide asked curiously.
"...Yeah." Oda nodded, "My best friend."
——
On the last step of Nishino's climb, Oda stretched out his hand and pulled her up the small steps in front of the shrine, and Nishino also put his hand on Oda's shoulder very habitually, as if nothing had happened.
"I'm coming!" Nishino showed a bright smile.
"Welcome." Oda nodded and helped Nishino to the inside of the shrine.
It took about half an hour for all the members to successfully climb to the interior of the shrine: "Ota Shrine". Although it is known as the most difficult shrine to visit in Japan, the layout of the shrine's interior does not seem to be very consistent with this famous name.
The dusty wooden shrine is filled with colorful candles that look like they have aged well, although they are rich in color.
At this moment, maybe God saw their efforts. The sky that had been drizzling suddenly cleared up, and the sun's rays shone on the distant sea, like a mirror that encompassed the most beautiful scenery in the world.
The rainy day is like lying.
He stretched out his hand and shook the bell. The five of them clasped their hands together, closed their eyes and lowered their heads.
"For thirteen orders, we can sell a lot!"
"I want to be a lifelong best friend with Na-chan." Oda secretly said in his heart: If God can really see it, he should give a special reward to the bravest child.
