Blade of Glory [Figure Skating]

The scorching breath in this ice and snow space makes the heart speed up, and the mutual gasps seem to be the best aphrodisiac.At this moment, Naxiu's mocking words made the man stop.But if you think that he is going to let Naxiu go, you are wrong.In fact...after Naxiu said that sentence, the hotness of the man's lower body seemed to be stimulated by something, and it swelled even more, and it became... more hard as iron.But he didn't shy away from letting the meat blade stand against Naxiu through the cloth, and rubbed against it intentionally or unintentionally...

He looked at Na Xiu quietly, staring closely at Na Xiu's eyes, and used his sight to describe the face that he hadn't seen for many years.

"I just did what I wanted to do 19 years ago but couldn't do it."

After a brief silence, he suddenly picked up Naxiu and walked effortlessly to the room inside the ice rink.

After the two left, Qing Yue, who covered his mouth with his palms to silence himself, collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, cold sweat running across his young and delicate face.Qing Yue could hardly believe that what happened in front of him was real.He was so shocked that there was a fault in his thinking, leaving only the scenes of what happened just now kept crashing into his head, so that he couldn't get rid of those images no matter how hard he shook them off.

Standing up with difficulty supporting his knees, Qing Yue picked up his backpack and walked slowly towards home.That night, when he finished his homework and was lying on the bed, a phone call from Chu Xuan interrupted his cranky thoughts.Qing Yue, who was in pajamas, immediately ran to the hanger to answer the phone.

It is now the beginning of September, and the new season will start soon.Perhaps for Chu Xuan, he will go to participate in the season invitational tournament held by the IIHF in October.This means that he will set off to a certain country in a short time, and present his program for the new season to the international referees in the sub-station of the pre-season invitational tournament.It also means...they won't see each other for at least a long time.

In this regard, Chu Xuan was very unhappy that Qing Yue hadn't bought a mobile phone until now, and said that if you don't buy it again, I'll buy it for you, and then all the prize money you won in the national championship this year will go to you I'm sick, Ling Qing is more dumbfounded.Who doesn't know that even the third place winner of the national championship can get a bonus... It's enough to buy ten computers...

Just as he was talking nonsense and was about to hang up the phone, that extremely impactful scene crashed into Qing Yue's mind again.

"Chu...Chu Xuan...?"

"what's up?"

"Men...can also...can like men?"

As Qing Yue asked that sentence hesitantly, the other end of the phone fell silent.After a long time, that always energetic voice sounded again.

"Yes, but it doesn't make sense from the perspective of human evolution. But...how did your head grow...you can even participate in adult competitions, how can you lack this kind of common sense. You will let I'm very worried... don't you know that figure skating is the sport with the highest probability of being gay?"

"Figure skating...? The probability of being gay... is high?"

"Of course!" Hearing Qing Yue's ignorant question, Chu Xuan felt anxious, "No, I think I need to let you know the common sense in this area. First of all, do you know how men and men behave? ?It is to put XX into your OO to make piston movement. So, if you encounter a man who wants to put his XX into your OO, don’t hesitate to take the ice skates and hit him on the head!”

"Beep...beep...beep..."

"Eh... eh? Hang up? Cut..."

The idol of countless girls, classmate Chu Xuan occasionally had an outburst of conscience and wanted to tell his good comrades-in-arms about the precautions to protect himself while mixing in the figure skating world, but he was treated by being hung up on the phone and felt very irritable. I washed and went to bed early without even matching the clothes I was wearing.

But this night for Qing Yue, it was difficult to fall asleep after tossing and turning.

[Do you know how men and men do it?It's just...] Before the picture he saw before came out of his mind, Chu Xuan's voice sounded again.Qing Yue curled up tightly under the quilt and covered his whole body in it, tossing and turning inside, and after a long time, he suddenly overturned the quilt, and sat leaning against the head of the bed to breathe...

No sleep for one night.

A few days later, Naxiu found his parents when Qing Yue was away, and told them that there was an excellent coach from Jia Country who liked Qing Yue's talent and wanted him to go to Jia Country before next season Receive training messages.

This is a news that makes Qing Yue and his family feel too sudden.Qingyue's parents were very pleasantly surprised that he was spotted by the excellent coach of Jia Country.However, Qingyue understood that the coach Naxiu was talking about named Suo Lunjiaguo was probably the man who came to the ice rink that day.

After what happened, let Qing Yue go to Jia country with that man to receive training. Although he was pleasantly surprised, he still felt an indescribable awkwardness.But he was finally persuaded by Naxiu.Yes, his technique is not complete, nor skilled enough.If he wants to jump to the podium of the adult group from last year's No.4 in the youth group in this season's national championship, what he knows...is not enough.

So, not long after, Qing Yue boarded a plane to Jia country together with the Jia country coach named Sauron, who was still a stranger to him, and left his country for the first time.On the day of leaving, Naxiu didn't send Qingyue off in the future, but asked Jie Jie to send him another pair of ice blades specially made for him.On the car to the airport, Qing Yue looked at the pair of ice blades polished by Na Xiu himself, and was silent for a long time...

The journey to Jia Country is long.Even taking a plane will take more than ten hours.Jia country...it is a big country in the world of ice and snow that can frequently win awards in the Winter Olympics.Not only in the field of figure skating that Qingyue has gradually entered, but also in the field of snowboarding that Lesheng yearns for, Jiaguo is a daunting absolute powerhouse.

As for the man named Sauron in front of him, Naxiu said that he is definitely a first-class coach even in Jia Country.This made Qing more and more puzzled, how powerful he... is.But Qing Yue's long-awaited training was not as exciting as he imagined.It's just... boring like never before.

The footwork that had never been paid enough attention by Qingyue was almost retrained by Sauron from the most basic part like crazy.His requirements are extremely strict, so strict that... Qing Yue, who always skates casually, is at a loss.Although he was never sloppy in his skating training, nor would he deliberately be lazy, the completely different training styles of Sauron and Naxiu made him extremely uncomfortable.

According to Sauron, under the current scoring system, footwork is the same as spinning, and the degree of difficulty that can be obtained is directly reflected by the rating.Rather than jumping, each action can be completed with a very clear corresponding score.

Many figure skaters don't have a clear idea of ​​​​taking points.They only know that the points they can get from difficult jumps may make them jump from obscurity to the podium position in one fell swoop, so regardless of their own talent limitations, they practice quadruple jumps hard, which makes a group of second-rate talented figure skaters in the world. The body suffered a lot of damage while practicing quadruple jumps, and he could no longer continue skating.

But the points they paid so much to get could have been achieved by high difficulty ratings in spin and footwork.Among them, although rotation pays attention to training methods, whether it can gain an absolute advantage because of this, the innate talent of athletes is also very important.Then, all that's left is...footwork.

Although the grading of footwork is much more difficult than spinning if you want to get the highest level [-], and many requirements are more detailed.But once the level of footwork is raised, the points that can be obtained will be very impressive.That's why Sauron emphasized the importance of footwork so much.Because...that's the only part of it that can be achieved entirely through hard work.

Although that is likely to greatly reduce the excitement of the entire program and make many viewers who go to watch it purely for appreciation incomprehensible, it can indeed greatly increase the score of the same program.So Sauron will be almost paranoid and demanding in this regard.A series of footwork such as internal and external hook steps, 3-character step, bridge tower, Mohawk, brackets, twirling steps and so on have all been retrained by Sauron, even the smallest parts will be trained by him most strictly. Strict and detailed requirements.

It's not that he didn't want to escape home before, but Qing Yue could clearly feel that these... were what restrained him and made him stagnate in the competition.Therefore, he would say to himself every day when he was almost exhausted: just survive another day.

Qingyue didn't tell Naxiu that the training here was too intensive for him, but he kept in close contact with Naxiu, as if...he never left the small town at the foot of the snow mountain.

Because of this, Naxiu was often ridiculed by the Czech Republic.Perhaps there is a tacit understanding between him and Naxiu that does not require words.Qing Yue trusted Na Xiu and every decision he made.So even when he was training the hardest and felt that he was going to be unable to support himself, he never mentioned a word to Naxiu.But he remembered what Naxiu said, no matter when or where, never forget your own style.

Time turned the page day after day, just like that... until the October of the pre-season invitational tournament held by the International Skating Union.On this day, Sauron ended the training abnormally early and brought Qingyue back home.

"Interested in seeing my son skate? My son, Alek."

Turning on the TV, Sauron, who poured himself a small glass of whiskey and a glass of juice for Qing Yue, took off his coat, sat on the sofa and asked with interest.
