Chapter 308: Maintaining Balance

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The guests fell silent.

Director Chen’s smile told them that this matter was not that simple.

Director Chen did not feel awkward at all. He raised the microphone and smiled at Liu Mian, who was wearing a traditional Chinese outfit. “Next, please demonstrate it yourself and teach us the key points of movement.”

The guests applauded in unison.

Liu Mian nodded slightly, “Floating on a single bamboo is also known as the solo bamboo boat, commonly known as rowing with a bamboo pole. The performer stands barefoot on a straight bamboo pole about 15 centimeters in diameter and more than 8 meters long as a water carrier. A straight bamboo pole about 5 centimeters in diameter and about 4 meters long is used as an oar. He alternates left and right and paddles on the water.”

Liu Mian picked up the bamboo pole and walked to the riverside. The river breeze blew her dress up.

She stepped on the bamboo pole on the river and explained while demonstrating, “The main principle of practicing floating on a single bamboo is to constantly change the angle of standing on the bamboo to fight the water flow until one finally reaches a balance. By constantly practicing, you can find an angle that matches your body shape and footsteps.

If one is heavier, standing in the middle will be better. If one is lighter, it will be easier to control if the bamboo pole has some water inside.”

Liu Mian spun gently on the bamboo pole, as graceful and elegant as performing ballet on the water. After returning to the riverbank, she looked at the guests and said, “You have never come into contact with floating on a single bamboo before. There’s no hurry to go into the water. You can practice your balance on the shore first.”

After Liu Mian finished speaking, the seven guests each picked two bamboo sticks, one long and one short. Then, they lined up on the flat ground to practice.

Ji Jingchi stood on the big bamboo pole and shook from side to side. Fortunately, he used the small bamboo pole to support himself off the floor and did not fall. “Over my dead body will I believe Director Chen that this can be done. It’s already so difficult to stand on the ground, let alone on the river.”

Ruan Chu’s situation was similar.

Gu Yang took off her shoes and tried to stand on the thick bamboo pole barefooted.

The original owner of the body had a foundation in dancing and had a good balance.

She had a foundation in martial arts before she transmigrated. Although her body was not her original body, she still remembered the techniques. It was not difficult for her to maintain her balance.

Ji Jingchi’s eyes lit up when he saw this. “Impressive, Little Fairy. How did you do it? Hurry up and teach me.”

When Gu Yang heard his words, she stepped on the bamboo pole and turned her head slightly. “The friction between the bamboo joints is slightly greater.

You can try stepping on the bamboo joints.”

Liu Mian saw Gu Yang standing on the bamboo pole from afar and walked over to take a look. She nodded. “Not bad. Practice more and you can change your footsteps.”

Gu Yang smiled. “Thank you, Ms. Liu Mian.”

“I got on as well!”

At this moment, Tang Qiaoqiao stood on the bamboo pole.

Fu Sheng and Wei Yuzhou applauded and praised.

The fans in the live stream also praised her.

After that, the other guests also stood on the bamboo pole one after another. Because they had a shorter bamboo pole in their hands, very few of them could not stand steadily and fell to the ground.

The seven guests stood on the bamboo poles, some even posing in front of the camera.

At this moment, Liu Mian came over with a bucket of cold water and splashed it on their feet.

Ji Jingchi, who was posing, slipped and almost fell.

Liu Mian glanced at them. “You have to stand on the water. The bamboo poles will be wet by the river, and the green bamboo poles will be slippery. You have to get used to the slippery bamboo poles first.”

Although the other guests were prepared, most of them also slipped off the bamboo pole.

Gu Yang stood on the bamboo pole, her body swaying a few times. She was still steady and even smiled at Liu Mian.

Liu Mian paused for a moment and splashed more water on her feet.

Gu Yang didn’t even sway. She was still very stable and could even move slightly on the slippery bamboo pole.
