"Wei Yong" You are the Hua of Twilight Ice

Chapter 56 Claudio's Fantasia

The current Yuuri doesn't know all of this, he is doing a group of combined rotations mainly with squat spins, the boy is completely shocked by Shakespeare's magnificent world, but his confusion has not subsided just yet.The world is too vast, he stood up and changed his feet smooth, the boy's puzzlement was slowly hidden, and he started to get in touch with his surroundings.Every jump represents another point of his understanding of this side of the text world.

Axel's triple axel was performed lightly and gracefully by Yuuri, but the subsequent quadruple jump was not stable on the ice because he did not control the landing when changing feet.After the habitual nervousness, Yuuri silently warned himself not to be nervous, if the emotional expression of the whole show is broken, it will only have a worse effect.

While comforting himself, he continued to perform.From here on, the program entered the final part. The young man in the East is like a fish thirsty for water, taking everything that the classical world wants to tell him in his heart.Now, the boy is trying to understand the weirdness here with his own eyes.

The voice of the brass group gradually strengthened, and the violin's long chants were drawn out like clouds and moon.Here, the choreography is a Yan-style spin followed by a foot-changing squat spin. Yuuri then turned around with a stunned expression on his face. After sliding out the outer edge of his right foot, he switched feet to the left rear inner edge.This Mohawk is very beautiful, which is the best illustration of Yuuri's good footwork, but at this time, many viewers are obviously not thinking about footwork, they are all paying attention to Yuuri's last quadruple jump, which is a joint jump.

Putting the joint jump so close to the end, I have to say that it is a bit risky, but Yuuri insisted on such a change so resolutely and stubbornly, Coach Yakov, who knows part of the truth but can't say anything, is staring at Yuuri After a week of training, seeing that his physical strength could sustain him, he stopped dissuading him and left an annoyed sentence, "You can figure it out!" Even if he acquiesced to such an arrangement.

It can be said that thanks to the high-intensity continuous training for the past six months, Yuuri's physical strength has improved a lot.

If it was put a year ago, even with Yuuri's "super physical strength", this is not an easy task!

After he accelerated, he switched to using the blade of his right foot to touch the ice.Almost everyone held their breath as they watched Yong use his left rear inside edge to take off—

"Okay! I jumped around the backside, and there was no obvious mistake in landing the ice." Mr. Zhuoka, who was broadcasting the live broadcast, clenched the microphone in his hand. Triple axel, no mistakes in connection!"

The reaction of the anchor Zhuoka means that although the joint jump at the end is not particularly good, it is also surprisingly free of mistakes. For Yuuri, it was already a very pleasant surprise.

Usually at the beginning of the season, all Yuuri asks himself is to not fail in jumping.Now that he has achieved this, it is really a great improvement compared with before. He will work hard to improve the quality of jumping in the future!

While everyone was still excited, Yuuri's performance had already entered the last technical movement, which was a group of butterflies followed by swallow-style rotations, followed by squatting-style rotations, and finally an upright rotation at the end, and the final movement was fixed on the left hand Right chest, turn slightly to the right and look down at the left arm, and withdraw the right foot in a gentleman's posture behind the left foot.

The audience seemed to realize what happened at this time. They cheered and threw various food-shaped dolls from the stands. Mr. Moroka also took the time to continue explaining: "Very good ending, Katsuki Yuuri completed his In the short program, the quadruple jump did not fail, let us look forward to his next performance!" Yuuri's mood is very complicated now, both happy and a little sad.He picked up the rice ball doll beside him, slid towards the edge of the ice rink, then took the skate cover from Yakov, and walked towards the K&C area with him.

While waiting for the score to come out, Yuuri finally started to get nervous, he grabbed the black hair by his ear with one hand, and tightly grasped something below the collarbone that he had touched before going on stage with the other hand.In his opinion, this short one or two minutes is like a year or two.

"Japan's Katsuki Yuuri, his score is..." Yuuri raised his head after hearing the announcement, and looked at the display screen in the center of the ice rink.

——"110,04 points. Although Katsuki's own short program record has not been broken, it is very congratulatory to break through 100 points in the first game of the season!" During the broadcast, this sentence was repeated twice in English and Japanese.

Indeed, such a result is very rare for Yuuri to break through the 109.97-point mark. It was in the last season, and it was only later that he gradually got better, scoring [-] points and breaking his own record.And such a result was not able to maintain well in the final finals.

So, this can be regarded as something to be happy about.

Yuuri's hand slowly relaxed, and moved down from under the collarbone, where a round object could be vaguely seen, perhaps many people would not know, it was the one that Yuuri took from Minako's finger following Minako's suggestion gold ring.Although he decided to test whether Victor was still angry, he was reluctant to put the ring away from him.Even the corner of the safest drawer is not at ease.

So Yuuri wears a golden round ring on a silver chain as a pendant, so that the spell that blesses him can always be by his side, right?That proved to be the case, Yuuri came in second after the short program.

In fact, Yuuri's heart was complicated until he went back to his room, took a shower, came out of the bathroom and climbed into bed.Although it was a happy thing, he suddenly felt a little sad in his heart.His hard work in the past six months has not been in vain, and he can play well without Victor. More importantly, he can tell anyone with confidence that Victor did not waste time because of himself.

But now, there are so many things that should be happy, but I can't share them with the person I want to tell them the most!

The night in Philadelphia always comes so early, when Yuuri walked out of the bathroom, the lights outside the window had already lit up high and low into a colorful appearance.Just now in the steaming mist, Yuuri suddenly figured out something.

That is, for me, it's too early to think about anything now, didn't I think about it long ago, and only when I entered the finals and stood on the field with Victor, was I qualified to find out the truth?

Yuuri persuaded himself to go to sleep for the first time, which surprised Yakov who had planned to come over to take care of Yuuri, because in his impression, Yuuri was just a child who loved to think too much.

This night, Yuuri slept much better than that time in Beijing, and he didn't feel anything other than the unexpected hotness at night, in short, it meant that he was in a good state the next day.

This is probably a forced and helpless habit!

When Yuuri showed up at the rink the next day, Yakov was already there.He saw that although Yuuri was not in a good mood, there was no such thing as dark circles under his eyes, so he nodded secretly and didn't say anything else.

In today's free skating, Yuuri set up four quadruple jumps in the program. To be honest, Yakov doesn't quite agree with it, but Yuuri did complete the movements programmed in the program during the usual practice, not to mention whether the level can be reached Very good level, in short, there has been no fall or complete failure of the jump in the past three months.So Yakov felt a little relieved.

If anything has changed for Yuuri this year, it is that now it is easier for him to enter the state of being serious and not easily disturbed by the outside world.After warming up, he started to practice by himself, ignoring JJ's ridicule of "why didn't your nanny come along".

He divided the practice time into two, one part was used to practice 4T, 4F and 4S that appeared in [Claudio Fantasia]; the other half time was used to find the feeling of Scherzo.In the past two days, he has been listening to several excellent scherzos recommended by Yakov and his own repertoire repeatedly with headphones on in his free time, to recall the story of General Claudio—he is A hero in Shakespeare's comedy "Much Ado About Nothing" is full of dramatic colors.

Now Yuuri seems to have grasped some feeling, he slid on the ice with ease, "Key point! Point! What point can we grasp?" Yuuri said to himself silently in his heart.

He has been thinking about this question for a long time.

Is it emotion or narrative?

Or style?

still is……

Just when Yuuri was starting to get a little frustrated, a word Viktor once mentioned in a book with him jumped out of his memory.

Perspective!The word is "perspective"!

Thinking of the melody of his [Claudio Fantasia] again, Yuuri confirmed his thoughts even more.

The lightheartedness and humor at the beginning is from the perspective of the audience or readers. As an outsider looking at Claudio, he will only find this person ridiculous.

In the middle part, it gradually becomes the perspective of Claudio himself, from returning to the camp in victory and meeting his lover; to believing in provocation and self-willedness; .

Then comes the end of the music. After the story belonging to Claudio is finished, people slowly come out of the world in the book, and only then can they see the heavy reality hidden under the playful appearance of the story.It is also because of this that the outsider regained his attitude of watching and began to think deeply...

Probably, this is the most special aspect of [Claudio Fantasia]!

The free skating started at 45:[-] in the evening. This time Yuuri didn't choose to go around the city. One reason was that he didn't have anyone he knew well with him, and the other reason was to recharge his batteries.He spent two hours earnestly catching up on sleep, and then arrived at the ice rink on time in good spirits.

The order of appearance in the free skating is determined according to the ranking of the short program of the previous day, so this time Yuuri is the penultimate appearance.In yesterday's game, JJ ranked first in the short program with a slight advantage of one point.Yuuri, who is not used to being looked up to like this, is not as nervous as last season. Most of his pressure now comes from going to the finals to meet Victor.But now, even this idea, he has temporarily forgotten it in a way that is almost brainwashed.

Looking at it this way, Yuuri's mental state is really much better than before!And all his changes are related to Victor.

But right now Yuuri doesn't have time to think about these questions, he's getting ready and watching the other contestants' performances seriously.

"That's amazing!" Yuuri always praised others like this.

Now it is Leo who is ranked fourth after the short program.

Leo is a Mexican-American, and he can be regarded as playing at home in this stop.This time he still choreographed by himself, and the track he chose was the episode [Battle For The Mountain] in the American movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies". I fell in love with this movie the first time I saw it.

This piece of music gives people a very grand feeling. The depth of time and space and the urgency of war are the first attempts for Leo.

After seeing Leo's performance, Yuuri didn't continue to watch, but started trotting back and forth along the side of the lounge.It is impossible to say that there is no pressure. Yong, who has experienced it once, uses this method to relax himself.

Yakov had never seen this behavior before, he just went out for a while, and when he returned to the lounge again, he saw Yuuri running around along a certain route with his headphones on.He frowned, and the wrinkles that were originally carved by a knife became more obvious.

Yakov just wanted to open his mouth to yell at Yuuri, but he was stopped by Mira, who had finished the game in the afternoon and won a silver medal, and now came to cheer for Yuuri, who happened to meet at the entrance of the lounge and came in with him .

Mira grabbed her coach and quietly "shushed".

"Yakov, this state is fine. It turns out that guy Viktor said that this is the performance of Yuuri slowly relaxing..." Mira thought about it and continued to whisper, "Although Yuuri's way of relaxing is more...uh, Strange, but Yakov can rest assured..." After that, she winked her eyes.

So Yakov finally gave up the idea of ​​calling Yuuri over, and then raised his eyebrows even more, "Well, let him be fine, what worries me?"

Hey, it seems that Yakov is really a duplicity old man!

Mira shrugged, then made a face at Yakov behind his back.

By the time Yuuri finds out about Yakov and Mira, the third-ranked contestant is about to finish his performance, and Yuuri will be next.

Standing in the middle of the ice rink, Yuuri was a little dazed, but he soon found his senses.Today's performance clothes are very different from the previous styles.The whole piece of one-piece clothing is divided into two parts from the position of the midline. The left side is a riding suit similar to that of a western knight, and the shoulders.The elbows and knees are designed to feel like armor, and the silver boot effect is imitated even above the skates.

And the transition to the right has turned into an aristocratic dress. Although they are all white, this is another completely different style.The "armor" on the left shoulder has become a mantle and tassels on the right, and the boot shaft has also become a more lifelike riding boot.

Yuuri combed his right sideburn smoothly today, and the original broken hair was styled obliquely back. This is Yuuri's new look.

He stood with his left foot as a supporting foot, and lifted the sole of his right foot, leaving only the toes touching the ice.At the same time, his right arm was bent and rested on the shoulder on the other side, his elbow was raised upwards with the angle of his head, and his other hand was clenched into a fist, slightly bent in an arc at the back of his body.

As all can see, the pose is very haughty, but it also seems impossible to take your eyes off it.

At the beginning, the rhythm was three-quarter time, and the audience who were not familiar with the musical form began to discuss in a low voice.Some are asking people around them, as if they have never heard such a rhythmic "Fantasia", and some are popularizing Claudio and "Much Ado About Nothing" to others. By the way, I would like to say a few words about Shakespeare's master deeds.

But there are also a few knowledgeable people who nodded after listening to a few bars.

Pressing his right arm back under the weight of his elbow, Yuuri raised his left hand and kicked his right foot off the ice.He turned sideways slowly into a back slip, then opened his arms.It's a swallow slide,

This Yan-style skating was unusually strong, and he shifted his left hand upwards. The thumb and the other four fingers formed a soft yet firm arc.

"According to the information provided by the composer Mr. Shostako, this is actually a scherzo. Let us see how Katsuki will perform. In addition, in this free skating program, Katsuki will challenge four weeks Jump!" said the synchronous commentator in the broadcast.

At this time, Yuuri's performance entered a series of steps.The point of view gradually changes from outside the story to the world in the story. The victorious general returns to the camp in high spirits, and meets the beautiful noble lady at the celebration banquet. Everything is so perfect.

He shifted his weight on the other leg, then twirled around and followed the Mohawk.He then slides along two graceful curves to the other side of the rink, and does a half-turn on the inside.This is the performance of the most talked-about hero-beauty bridge.Yuuri held up his right hand, his left hand passed behind his head, turned to the left and took a smooth step change.

The audience in the stands cheered excitedly when they saw Yuuri back on his side.But Yuuri didn't stay here for too long, he took a smooth and natural hook step and walked away in the original direction.

When he reached the middle of the ice rink, the young man took the three-character turn again and turned to the right side of his body. Here, it shows the scene of a proud general with a beautiful woman in his arms, dancing non-stop with the beautiful woman.The flute and violin changed the melody, and the rhythm in six-eighths was particularly passionate.

Afterwards, there was the connection between the Chasek step and the bracket step, and the tassel on Yuuri's right shoulder fluttered up one after another under the convection of the air current.When people look carefully, they will find that Yuuri's trace is the abbreviation of "Shakespeare".

Finally, Yuuri started to speed up slightly, and the audience who realized what happened fell silent, staring at the field closely.

Continuous internal hook steps, and then take off directly, Axel triple axel!This difficulty entered Yuuri and stabilized it very well.Including the previous step sequence can also be rated as a fourth level. In such an era where most players mainly score by jumping and spinning, Yuuri, who is good at footwork, is really a magical existence!

"Axel triple axel! Very good, this level of difficulty should be able to add 2 points to GOE!" Unsurprisingly, the anchor Zhuoka, who followed the live broadcast in Philadelphia, leaned forward and lay at the front of the media area On the fence, I couldn't restrain my excitement.

As the music enters the middle part, the duet of oboe and horn gradually replaces the easy and willful strings, while the plucked strings of viola and cello use a continuous triplet, dots and syncopation, which brings people a sense of unease .It seems that there are tricks and conspiracies being bred under the glamor of the surface, as long as the ground is broken, it will bring some bad results.

The general is still full of pride, here is a group of joint jumps, 4T+3T.Yuuri's feeling here is actually not very smooth, probably because he hasn't been able to transition his emotions smoothly and naturally.Perhaps the understanding is not deep enough.Yuuri, for example, couldn't understand why Claudio could trust his own thoughts so much when there were obvious signs that there was a conspiracy lurking beneath the calm.

Therefore, this is the difficulty that Yuuri needs to overcome, because he is not a person who believes in himself very much. In Yuuri's view, understanding the psychology of a character like Claudio is indeed a task that takes some time.

But what he needs to do well now is technical issues, Yuuri put aside the doubts in his mind.

The next movement is to drag the knife supported by the left leg, and then follow up with the foot-changing squat and transfer to the knife-lifting swallow style rotation.After smoothing out, the middle part of the program has also reached the second half.The violin joins the plucked strings, and the timpani and cymbals send out a legato from time to time.The treacherous conspiracy gradually surfaced. This section is matched with large-scale knife-tooth steps, large inner blades, and different types of half-cycle jumps.Bewitched by the lies, the general walks away angrily and heartlessly. Seeing that tragedy is about to happen, the contradiction of the story develops to the extreme.

From this point on, the jumping gradually became denser.

After a set of choreographed footwork, when the drums in the music were replaced by strings, the young man slid sideways along the longer side of the ice rink and accelerated his jump.The falling ice of the triple axel jump was very clean.Then a group of 3A+1Lo+3S joint jumps was started again.

He quickly changed his foot to pick up the Chocta step. General Claudio, who was told the truth and still didn't believe it, was awakened. He didn't know that the lover he had hurt hadn't died.

The arc of the Choctat step connects to a single quadruple jump with the back and outer points. The main string and the accompaniment in the music also have a sense of hierarchy. Companion pulled out to go out in spring to relax.The sense of contrast between stillness and movement has an ironic meaning inexplicably.

The program has come to the last part after the quadruple jump on the outside ice.From positive smoothness to sideslip, Yuuri jumps after the swallow balance, then the swallow spin, then the phantom turn, and then turns into a leg-hugging squat spin. After he got up, the music suddenly became humorous again. Bing slid backwards in a relaxed posture, and then spread his hands in front of him, as if expressing the anxious and helpless mood of an outsider.Following Xia Saike's step was an upright rotation with a small range, and then turned around twice in a row, entering a direct 4S.

Scholars outside the office couldn't help laughing at the "great deeds" of the general's self-willed self-seeking.Yuuri clapped his hands lightly, opened his hands again and after the saber-toothed step, he jumped with his right foot on the ice.

This time, he still placed the quadruple jump on the backside at the end of the program.Now after nearly two years of training, it's no longer a big problem for him.But when changing feet and landing on the ice, Yuuri's hand still touched the ground, but the number of laps and success will still be recognized.

The ridiculous but thought-provoking story slowly freezes, Yuuri's last technical move - a group of joint rotations announces the complete end of [Claudio Fantasia]. He stands on the ice with his legs slightly bent, The right hand is behind the back, the palm of the left hand is facing outward, and the fingers are spread to cover the face representing Claudio.

The implication of this action is to reject arrogance and suspicion, and look at everything from a prudent perspective.This is also the connotation that this program wants to convey.

Stopping suddenly from strenuous exercise, Yuuri gasped for breath.Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead, and he suddenly felt his vision blurred, and the cheers of ice fans seemed to come from far away.Because at this moment, his eyes were covered with halos of sweat, while what he heard was Yuuri's own beating heartbeat.

When he sat down in the k&c area, he was still at a loss. He was dragged to that position by Yakov in a daze, and his name was remembered on the radio.

"Okay, now let's look at Katsuki Yuuri's score. The free skating score is 195.75 points, and the overall score is 295.79 points, temporarily ranking first!" Hearing this score, Yuuri could intuitively feel his own progress, and he had already figured out those things This time, Yuuri did not feel complicated because of the results of his hard work. He quietly clenched his fists and said to himself in his heart, "We must maintain this feeling, the final, that is the goal!"

On the contrary, Yakov showed a good mood, and the gully on his entire face stretched out.

"Very good, but you still have a lot to work on." Yakov said.
