ice emperor

'The next player to play was Joel Duroc from the United States. '

Hush huh huh.

The announcer announced the athlete's name and nationality, and the audience applauded. The 30-second countdown ended, and the time for An Yi to play was getting closer and closer.

His eyes shifted, and he took one last look at Russian veteran Ilya Ivanov. He stood up from his seat, nodded to his father An Zexian, jumped on the spot twice, took off his upper body sportswear, and revealed It is hidden below, matched with pure black trousers on the lower body, the chiffon texture is slightly loose, and the color gradually fades from the waist and abdomen, until the shoulders and necks are completely white performance clothing tops.

Then, he handed over the sportswear jacket to Joyce for safekeeping, rolled his eyes at Johnny who was staring at his waist and hips in a daze, took the jelly water from An Zexian, sprayed some, and combed the hair hanging on his forehead. The top of the head is fixed, making the already quite regular hairstyle closer to perfection.

1 minute, 2 minutes, after the staff of the national team helped him take care of the annoying ponytail on the back of his head, he raised his eyebrows to signal his departure.Saying goodbye to Johnny, accompanied by An Zexian, Joyce and others, he did not forget to complain when he walked to the frontcourt, because he was really fed up with his sissy long hair style.

"Dad, I have decided. After the World Championships, I will cut my hair short and change it back to the previous broken hair. Now this length is a torture every time I wash my hair. Huh? What are you talking about? Advertisement? Don't use that Help the French to whet my appetite. If Dior really wanted to find me to shoot commercials, they would have been looking for me eight lifetimes ago."

"Tch~ What reliable news? I haven't seen Julian for more than a year and has been busy with this matter? Hehehe, then he really worked hard. He not only needs video communication to help me arrange the program, but also contacts friends to help you. If my employer doesn't give him a salary increase, it's a bit unreasonable, isn't it?"

Talking all the way, in short, no matter how An Zexian tried to dissuade An Yi, he has unilaterally decided that your son, I can't stand my too perfect personal image, and decided to be a rough guy.

An Zexian smiled as he listened, and secretly sighed that it was his kind that was smart.

My little devil probably guessed what he asked Julian to find someone to do, otherwise he wouldn't have said whether Julian Pat was working so hard and busy, so he should be given a raise.

but.

Let's put it this way, it's not a fool to shoot commercials. When he and Julian and Joyce, why have they always limited the number of commercials for this brat, and why do they always downplay or erase his tricks when they participate in this work? The identity of the skater?

It's not for the brat's future plans, and he wants him not to shoot those silly advertisements that have something to do with sports.

Who would have thought that this little guy not only didn't cooperate, but also hated this and that! ?Well, if you want to cut it, you can cut it, whether you want to shoot it or not, you can do it in Chengdu.

Anyway, with all the savings of their family added together, they will definitely be able to live a very prosperous life in this life.

'Joel Duroc. '

'Ah ah ah ah! ! ! '

At 40 minutes and [-] seconds, the game started and the game ended. An Yi walked out of the athlete's passage with his front foot, and the American performance came to an end.

The applause, cheers, and fairly enthusiastic audience response are enough to show that the Texas Cowboys just performed pretty well.Otherwise, European ice fans with high vision will not let go of their reservations. After all, the lessons learned by the Germans are still vivid.

That's, uh-

Mr. Cowboy, please, can you stop looking at me with bright eyes, isn't it just combing your hair back?If you like it, you can try it yourself. Pay attention to the impact, so many pairs of eyes are watching it.

"...Okay, get ready to play. Dad knows your strength, and he also believes in your state. Unlike the hateful Joyce, who knows your level but..."

'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! an! ! !

'Louis!Louis!Louis! '

'Oh, God!Louis you are so handsome today!look at me, look at me!The third seat in the sixth row of the north stand!please!Seat No. [-]! ! '

Inside and outside the ice rink, the Americans passed by and looked at each other. After thanking the audience for their support, the Americans sat in the first class seats. An Zexian took the skate cover that An Yi took off, and was about to encourage his son to cheer up. He had noticed An Yi a long time ago. As soon as the silhouette of the audience slowed down, there was a burst of shouts that had never been seen before by all the players on stage, covering An Zexian's weak voice.

Glancing at him with a sneer, he patted An Yi on the shoulder and sent him to the arena. James Joyce ignored his old friend's gaze like a knife, and watched his beloved little disciple accompanied by 3 spectators Cheers gliding around the field, making the final pre-match preparations.

Looking at the pride on the ice rink, he couldn't help thinking that from 1999 to 2, five years have passed, so short and so long.

He has always been like today, standing on the sidelines and watching his beloved disciple set foot on the field, experience criticism, go to success, and become a recognized emperor in the field of figure skating men's singles.

In this process, their master and apprentice have gained a lot. The big one has become a miracle in the coaching world, and the small one has become an idol in the athlete world.

To be honest, how much he wished that time would stop at this moment, how much he wished that his disciple could always stand at the top, and wherever he slid like now, he would be surrounded by applause and cheers.

In this way, he can talk himself out of thinking about problems that are still somewhat distant.Don't think about those, too successful will inevitably encounter balance worries.

'Joel Duroc, a skater from the United States, scored . '

‘技术分：105．０3。节目内容分：92．38。自由滑总分：197．41。大奖赛总分：292．０5。rank：3。’

Hush huh huh.

After waiting for a while, the score appeared. The rough Texas cowboy sat on the equal score bench, accepted his score and ranking with a smile on his face, and hugged the head coach sitting beside him.

after that.

He let go of his arm and turned his gaze to the familiar yet unfamiliar figure on the ice rink.

The thoughts in his mind flowed back uncontrollably back to the day of the first meeting, feeling that who would have thought that the handsome boy who made his heart excited could grow to his current height in just a few years.

Sign.

symbol.

The favor of the referee, the love of the audience, and thousands of loves are all in one.Olympic gold medal, World Championship gold medal, Grand Prix gold medal, no one can ignore his status and existence.

Looking back on the past, he can always present classics in the most critical games of each season, so is it the same this time?

Backcourt?Back to the backcourt.If that little guy dares to skate badly this time, he will definitely complain to the organizing committee!

Hahaha.

Thoughts were intertwined, the past and the present overlapped, and under the watchful eyes of the American Joel Duroc, An Yi returned to An Zexian and Joyce.

look at his expression.

Calm, serious, and focused, when the skates under his feet stopped, his intimidating aura spread out, and the divine light in his azure blue eyes was fierce and frightening.

Looking at Joyce and An Zexian on the outside of the protective wall of the ice rink, they were obviously quite satisfied with An Yi's performance status so quickly.Just as he didn't say much just now, he patted An Yi on the shoulder encouragingly, and signaled him with his eyes, let's go, kid, conquer this arena.

next interest.

An Yi turned around, An Yi stepped on the ice, the announcer's voice sounded, and the screams from the stands on all sides of the scene burst.

It definitely belongs to the finals of this year's ISU International Skating Union Grand Prix, and the most important competition of men's singles free skating is coming.

'The last player to play is Louis Watts (yian), from China! '

'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh' '

'Louis! '

'Louis! '

'Louis! '

'an! ! ! '

'...'

"!! wow!!! Listen to the amazing screams at the scene, Louis Watts, who dominates the figure skating men's singles field, stands on the ice rink!"

"For him, I don't need to worry, I don't need to say much, I just need to calm down and enjoy the performance he brings. This season, his slide music comes from the French composer, Charles Camille Saint-Saëns. The classic symphonic poem "Dance of the Skeleton". As God bears witness, this explosion of anticipation makes my heart beat so fast!"

Shouting and cheering, skating on the ice, during Joe Baker's passionate commentary in the cbcsports live broadcast room, An Yi, dressed in a black and white performance costume with a simple and elegant style, spun the skates on his feet and came to the center of the ice rink to stand facing the referee's seat to the north.

Exhaling and inhaling, he straightened his chest, retracted his abdomen, and straightened his legs. He placed his left and right hands on both sides of his body and slightly raised his palms outward. , unexpectedly closed his eyes.

Four seconds, three seconds.

Two seconds, one second.

He stood and held his breath as the 30-second countdown ended and slide music began.

Deng!

Deng!

Deng!

As if announcing the arrival of midnight, the keys representing the chiming of the bell were struck, a full twelve times per second, and he remained motionless in the opening and sliding posture.

13 seconds!

No.13 under!

thump——

Pressing the deliberately emphasized strong voice, the eyelashes of his face, which was closely watched by the live camera, trembled slightly, his two slanted sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and the closed eyes below him suddenly opened.

In an instant, the clear blue, the frightening blue, and the blue that pierces people's hearts rushed into the vision of hundreds of millions of viewers.

At the same time, the weird and unique sound of the violin was playing, but after the initial flash of light, Na Molan was a bit puzzled, his neck twisted with the rhythm of the music and looked in four directions, and began to look around in a smart and weird way environment of.

No. 30 seconds, the repeated single tone receded, the doubts in the blue eyes disappeared, and when the main chord of the background music sounded, he seemed to have finally remembered everything, accepted the reality, and remembered who he was.

As for the name?

It does not matter.

The important thing is now, the moment, the instinct to dance and slide when hearing the music, and the catharsis!

The violin bow was pulled, and the free skating started No. 40 seconds. An Yi left four subtly different expressions on the four sides of the stands in the order of east, west, and north. Ascending to the melody of the music, the left foot floats and the right foot supports the body, the front outer edge slides forward with a step, and the vibrato that scrapes the eardrums of the audience completes the turn. The left foot, left leg and right leg are crossed, and the outer edge of the left foot falls on the ice. The knee joints of the legs are slightly bent, and the center of gravity is lowered.

only!

This jump is more than that, just after he rotated his right foot around and the outer edge fell on the ice, the left leg placed in front of the right leg should have opened after the rotation, tens of thousands of spectators in the surrounding stands were about to applaud and cheer, he suddenly kept both hands After the legs cross the right foot, the outer edge slides out, take off for the second time and rotate the body for the second time.

In addition, the arms that should have cooperated with the force were lifted up and held together for the first time, and then rotated again for three weeks before landing on the ice and sliding out. As soon as the free skating competition opened, he dedicated an astonishing performance. Triple jump with rear outer knot ring.

In a gasp, look at the reaction of the audience.

If that's not enough, you can also look at the expressions of the athletes and coaches in the backcourt preparation area with their mouths wide open, admiring and shaking their heads but not knowing what to say.

It is really!

In fact, the quality of An Yi's 4loop then 3loop jumps on the ice rink was too high.Even if there is an opening and sliding link missing in the middle of jumping and jumping, the whole jumping process is still pleasing to the eye.

Take a look at his 4loop take-off, the right front outer turn, the right back outer kangte step that merges into the slide, the height after he jumps, and the details of the difficulty of raising his arms and crossing his palms when performing a 3loop.

oh!Why doesn't such outstanding technical strength belong to them! ?

"...I really can't imagine what height Louis Watts has reached, and I don't think I would be more surprised if he suddenly completed the Axel quadruple jump in a while."

“看到了吗尤金妮亚，第一个跳跃，惊人的12分加5．1分加goe执行分2．85。这太恐怖了！19．95分！？这简直疯狂！！”

After the take-off and landing, the combined jump ended, the audience in the front field exclaimed, and the athletes and coaches in the back field were caught by the details of the score displayed on the real-time screen, An Yi's free skating performance continued.

The second technical move is Axel's triple axel jump.

With smooth entry, sufficient number of rotations, and light and perfect jump completion quality, An Yi once again caused screams and went down to goe+3.

then.

After the single jump, he hopped and then changed the foot without changing the basic posture of the squatting rotation. The two feet before and after changing the foot rotated more than eight times, and included three different squatting changes, which brought a lot of applause.

In the first minute and 45 seconds, the step sequence that he cares most about in the whole set of free skating arrived.

After he slid out of the rotation, he made a small jump on the ice with knife-toothed steps, and his body rose and fell five times with the music. Standing on the legs, the lower body remains still, the upper body is tilted to the left_, and the palms of the hands are relatively close to the right. This obviously makes people feel distorted and weird at first glance, but it makes people's consciousness flicker again when they look at it again. I don't understand why You will feel that the very casual, graceful, and relaxed dance postures have opened up the step-by-step performance that has cost him and Julian Pater countless painstaking efforts.

bass!bass!bass!

Snapped!

Snapped!

Snapped!

The rhythm of the music intensified, the bow and the strings rubbed against each other to make a weird whistle, the night was dark and the wind gusts of ghosts, a stiff, swaying, clattering human skeleton danced wildly.

With the sound of the wind swirling, he slid from the west side of the ice rink to the east side, keeping a one-step squat position and not moving for three seconds.Then he tipped his head and peeped around, thought he was very careful but couldn't control the strength of his movements, turned and stood up and fell, the 'grass' attached to his scalp swayed in the wind, his right palm supported his head and his left palm supported his waist.

The ice skates under the feet are changed, the right foot and the left foot are gliding in a lunge and leg press posture, the front outer edge of the right foot, the rear inner edge of the left foot, the lower back and the arms are raised upwards, laughing silently.

The seemingly hearty movements revealed a kind of loneliness abnormally, which couldn't stop the cold and dead silence from wrapping him up.

The wind blows, the cold wind blows, the leaves whistling, the bones knocking on the tombstone gurgling, only the cold moon in the sky hangs down a ray of compassion but seems to be absent.

brush.

For the third time, he danced and jumped up, and for the third time, he fixed his gliding posture in an extremely difficult posture.

An Yi slid and changed feet. After lowering his waist and bowing, he propped up his left foot and floated his foot. The front outer edge of his right foot twisted three times and turned to change. After changing the outer edge, his back slipped backwards. Lifting up, the back of the knife is hooked by the back of the left hand and pulled over the top of the head, and the palm of the right hand is pressed on the chest as if feeling the heartbeat.

The result is naturally to reap disappointment and let go, the fourth jump, the jump of venting, the jump of resentment.

The light of the knife was shining and the ice crystals were splashing. After skating backwards for five seconds in the swallow-style step with the knife, he let go of the skate and stamped on the ice with a silent cry. Stretch the arm diagonally behind and raise it upwards, pointing to the sky.

Accompanied by the sound of the violin sawing people's hearts, the strong grief and anger dissipated as he fell and hit the ice, and the helplessness followed his left foot twirled three times after landing on the ice, and his right leg kicked at the invisible enemy in the air and returned without success At that time, like the wounds and deep pits on the ice that were separated by ice skates, it was stuffed into the hearts of all those who were watching his performance.

"Dance of the Skeleton", this song obviously conveys cheerful music and cheerful dance, but this time it makes his skater feel lifeless, which makes people feel desperate after watching it.

"Oh God, this anger just takes my breath away."

"There is no doubt that Louis's 40-second step sequence will go down in the history books of figure skating. 40 seconds... I can't say more and I can't compare it with anyone. You must know that before him No one has the guts to do it. Our Louis Watts has done a miracle again!"

In the cbcsports live broadcast room, Joe Baker couldn't control his emotions, and rarely commented on An Yi's performance.

Similar to him, the commentators of nbhk and the sports channel of Russian national TV station, which broadcast the live broadcast of the isu ISU Grand Prix finals, all expressed the same exclamation.

Of course, there are also Russian guest commentators with broad artistic vision. On the live broadcast screen, An Yi jumped up for the fifth time and left a dance move to end the sequence. After a flash of inspiration, he said Martha Graham without hesitation. Dance founder's name.

During this process, An Yi's performance will naturally not stop. After the step sequence, the whole set of free skating entered the second half early. It seems that he has been dancing and hasn't danced for a long time. Jump to end this extremely long step sequence.

Immediately afterwards, kick off the ice twice, speed up the press step, turn the front inner edge of the left foot to the rear outer edge to draw a '3' turn, turn the body to change the edge, lower the center of gravity of the body to the left side with the blade of the right foot on the floating foot, and use the left rear The outer blade took off and jumped into the air, spinning around rapidly.

Lower the outer edge of the right foot and slide off the ice for one second, and then take off with the left foot with the knife teeth on the ice for the second time.

It is similar to jumping around the outer knot ring after the opening and then jumping three times around the outer knot ring after the opening, with arms crossed and hands clasped.This time, he completed a set of joint jumps that theoretically did not have any technical flaws in the same way that made the eyes of countless audiences shine.

"quadlutz, tripletoeloop!"

“gosh，又一次，19．69分加2．42分足足22．11分，真是让人恐惧。”

"I must emphasize that so far, Louis has only done four sets of jumps and has four sets left. Will he make mistakes? I don't think so. So can any of you tell me when he finishes all the free skates After that, how many points will you get?"

"..."

In the front and back courts, the preparation area was silent and no one answered, and An Yi's performances on the ice were staged one after another.

After the hook quadruple jump and then the outside ice three-week jump, in a very short period of time, he almost continuously performed a hook three-week single jump. There are three continuous jumps in the knot ring, and a quadruple jump on the back and outside ice that is extremely far away from the height.

Counting the technical moves, there are three left.

Look at the remaining time of the free program, 40 seconds.

The spooky and lively notes bounced and fell, and the style changed suddenly. The creaking sound of bone friction became denser and more urgent. A warm gleam climbed into the sky in the intense, short and progressive melody, but the dead fell into fear. , Do not want to go back to the cold tomb, began to hide around.

but.

The boundary between the dead and the living, the past and the present is so clear that a single will cannot reverse it.

No matter how many weeds he puts on his body to disguise himself, passing away is passing away, decay is decay, no matter how strong he pretends to be, it is useless, and he will be ruthlessly exposed if he encounters a little 'test'.

and so!

Just run away!jump!But no matter how hard you struggle!

all your deeds—

It's all possible, please me.

chap!

"Louis, this is... an, is it my illusion? This kid is so aggressive now. Oh, look at this set of movements of changing feet and turning his palms around his neck, as well as the painful expression on his face. This Is it tortured by the burning of dawn, or who is he targeting? The action itself is wonderful, full of emotions and correct, but I don’t think my understanding is wrong.”

"..."

Speechless, or maybe he was not sure about An Yi's current thoughts, An Zexian shook his head and did not respond to Joyce's question, his eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but think of NO.15 in the morning, when he asked An Yi to wake up for training. to the scene.

Sweat stains, shoe prints, exhaustion, without even asking, he can tell that his kid has definitely experienced something when he didn't know it.

Considering the recent reaction of the Canadian little golden retriever and his family's attitude towards Russians, the specific reason is probably related to that Ilya Ivanov.

'Louis Watts! '

'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhly ! ! ! '

Jumping, spinning, running, unwilling, unwilling, but still unable to escape the judgment of fate in the end, the dead were burnt out by the dazzling brilliance of the newborn sun and stopped their movements, and stopped struggling with body movements that were exactly the same as when they woke up.

When the music ended, the on-site announcer announced An Yi's name for the second time, and the 3 spectators in the stands on all sides reawakened An Yi with louder and louder shouts than at the opening.Bouquets, dolls, candies, and rainstorms fell onto the ice rink. In the blink of an eye, the ice boys who came to help collect small gifts lost their footing.

On the other hand, An Yi, as always, thanked the audience for their support.

Still the same sentence, without their company, he would not be where he is today.

As an athlete, blindly pursuing audience love and popularity is putting the cart before the horse.But if there is no support and encouragement, when athletes encounter failures, doubts, and confusion, they will inevitably sink more easily, and it will be more difficult to get themselves out of the predicament.

'an! '

'Louis!Louis! '

'Ah ah ah ah! ! ! '

'...'

In 3 minutes and 4 minutes, the shouting and applause in the stands continued, and many young ice boys picked up too many gifts and cried.

After discovering this phenomenon, An Yi simply followed the group of little guys to help out after thanking the audience in the surrounding stands with a smile.Amidst the joyful laughter of the audience, they picked up one after another, the old gifts that the little ice boys accidentally dropped when they bent down to pick up the new ones.

At the same time, the referees scored, and the big screen began to replay the highlights of An Yi's free skating program just now.But what was surprising was that the TV's live camera was following An Yi, and more than 3 viewers were watching An Yi with smiles. Not many people cared about his performance after the free skating.

Of course.

The reason for this situation is not that An Yi's performance is too poor, but that he has been in an extremely stable state so far in his career, which is reassuring.

Anyone who knows his strength and watched his free skating performance just now knows how high his competitive level in that program just now is.

To put it bluntly, looking at the current figure skating and men's singles athletes, An Yi is definitely in the ruling class.

Want to beat him when he's playing normally?Canadian Johnny Wasenberg, who ranks second in the world, can't do it. After his comeback, the Russian legend, who has become more and more brave after his comeback, seems unlikely at present.

'Louis Watts (yian) from China, after free skating, achieved . '

As time passed, hundreds of millions of figure skating fans around the world watched An Yi's every move. He went back and forth to and from the ice rink five times. After collecting piles of small gifts, he just exited the rink and hugged Joe one after another. Ice and An Zexian accepted the congratulations from the two of them, and were about to walk into the waiting area with the skate set in their hands, but they did not expect the announcer's voice to sound.

Raising his head, he looked at the big screen showing the score in the free skating, and even wondered how many points the three quadruple jumps could help him get.

Although in the future, the era of quadruple jumps where difficulty is king will definitely come.But before that, let him try to see how far his artistic expression can go.

After all, he is burdened with so many challenging tasks related to artistic expression, waiting for him to complete.
