He is wild and cowardly

Brother Huang and Lao Chen made an appointment on a dark and windy weekday night for a month. They had a conversation in a hidden corner of a cafe in Hu Lane that no one knew about.

No one knew what they said, nor did they know what agreement was finally reached. All in all, after returning, Brother Huang no longer had the worried expression all day long that he was afraid that Xiao Qiang would be troubled. Basically, it was up to Tao and Shu. up.

The semi-final of ER?VS?ANX officially kicked off at the old place - Haicheng Meiben venue.

Since the team that wins the game will go directly to the final, the attention of this battle is very high.

At six o'clock in the evening, the people staying in front of the guild hall had already filled up the two aisles.

The security guards struggled to maintain order, organizing people with tickets to line up for ticket inspection, and those without tickets to stand aside. Unfortunately, the effect was not satisfactory—in order to see their idols more, everyone tried their best to stretch their necks Old and long.

The atmosphere in the venue is also very lively.

The supporters of the two teams held up their banners and waved them wildly at the camera when they saw the right opportunity. Many people painted "ER must win" or "ANX competition high" on their faces and arms. "The words.

The semi-final is a BO5 competition system,? until nine o'clock in the evening,? the game has just entered the fourth game.

This game is crucial,? Because it is related to whether the game can continue to the fifth game.

The transformation of ANX this season is obvious to all, from the top [-] of the summer split to the semi-finals, but the current score of [-] to [-] still makes many people sweat for them.

Especially in the fourth game, the Ban&Pick session made a mistake, releasing Wu Zi's signature hero, Big Mouth.

Dazui is a hero who became famous when Wu Zi was a rookie, and it matches his playing style very well. Unfortunately, as the major teams become more operationalized, the coordination required has changed a lot. Dazui's damage Heroes who are tall but have no displacement will gradually lose many opportunities to play.

ANX let out his big mouth, the team was stunned at first, and then Chi Ying asked him: "Do you want to take it?"

Wu Ziya gritted his heart and said, "Take it!"

Chi Ying took an angel as a jungler, and the four-guaranteed-one lineup around the bottom lane in this game was officially determined.

Playing his signature hero in the final game of the semifinals, Wu Zi must have been excited, but the excitement did not affect the operation due to hand tremors—it turned out that he secretly practiced this hero in private.

At 23 minutes, the first wave of team battles broke out in the bottom lane.

Xi Fengyu manipulated the old man Time to go up and deal a wave of damage first. When he retreated, the support immediately gave a shield. At this time, the angel and the top laner resisted the firepower, forcing the opposite double C's big move and flash, and the big mouth hunt The moment has come.

They haven't practiced this routine in a training match for a long time, but when they took it out temporarily, they were not familiar with it at all.

In the 38th minute, ER opened the big dragon, and with the blessing of the buff, he pushed all the way to the high ground. In the 43rd minute, the crystal broke.

So far, the semi-finals came to an end with ER winning [-]-[-].

The screams in the hall continued like a tsunami. Most of the fans of ER were congratulating the home team for winning. The fans of ANX were not discouraged, after all, it was not easy to reach the semi-finals. ER under the first lineup had back and forth confrontations, and the game was stretched to more than 40 minutes, which has greatly proved the progress of ANX.

Commentator A: "Congratulations to ER for winning the semi-finals!! Hey, my palms were sweating when I watched the last round. It was wonderful, really wonderful. Wu Zi's big mouth is still the same as before. .”

Commentator B: "Yes, and why do I feel that ER's cooperation is much stronger than in the previous game?"

Commentary A: "Continuous cooperation and continuous improvement. (laughs)"

The camera focused on the competition seats, the two teams got up and were about to shake hands, and the commentators chatted for a while.

Commentator A: "...Hey, why did Chi Shen take out his mobile phone before he got off the stage? Is this already calling to announce the good news?"

Commentator B (looking at the competition seats): "Chi Shen's expression is rare, although I don't want to speculate... But this is calling my sister-in-law, right? It's a joke."

This scene happened to be captured on the big screen as well.

The boy held his cell phone to his ear, lowered his head halfway, and couldn't see his expression clearly, but there was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.

All of a sudden, there was a screaming female voice in the audience.

Countless lines [my phone rang just now], [my phone rang too], [my phone is ringing because of my fart] quickly floated across the bullet screen in the official live broadcast room.

Commentator A acted terrified: "Don't play with the rhythm, you can't say such things casually, you listen to the voice from the audience—if you are caught by the fans later, whoever will be responsible."

Commentator B smiled: "Anyway, I'm definitely not the first person to play this rhythm, and I can't be counted on my head."

Chi Ying hung up the phone, and when he turned around, Xi Fengyu looked at him with a complicated face.

"what happened?"

"Is it that urgent? I can't go down and fight again." Xi Fengyu sighed a lot, "I'm afraid that if you win the game, you will come out on the spot if you are happy."

Chi Ying stood up, the smile on her lips still not fading, and said lazily: "What are you afraid of, it's not the final."

"...?"

When Xi Fengyu realized that something was wrong, Chi Ying had already packed up her things and left the stage.

After winning the semi-finals, the next thing to prepare is the upcoming summer finals in Yishi.

It is self-evident that the champion of the summer split goes straight to the S game. It is almost a battleground for the major teams of the LPL, and the popularity is quite high every year.

There are still almost three days until the finals, and there are fewer training appointments these days. In Lao Chen's words, the most important thing is to maintain the feel and state now.

The food was also quite light. Xi Fengyu had been clamoring to eat barbecue and drink beer since he came down, but was violently suppressed by Lao Chen—of course he could eat after the finals, but at this juncture, what should he do if he ate badly.

So when everyone returned to the base, looking at the soy milk, steamed buns and millet porridge in the restaurant on the first floor...they lost their appetites.

Xi Fengyu rubbed his hungry, growling stomach, and complained: "No, this is the treatment just after winning the semi-finals? No meat."

Old Chen invited them to come and sit down: "It's only a few days, bear with it, and eat whatever you like after the finals, okay."

Everyone sat down listlessly.

Chi Ying went upstairs and put something down, and asked Lao Chen, "Any other plans for tonight?"

"No," Old Chen paused, realizing something, "What, don't you want to..."

"Yeah." Chi Ying said, "I'm leaving first."

Old Chen looked complicated: "...don't be too late."

Wu Zi finished a basket of steamed buns and raised his head in confusion: "Why did Brother Chi go?"

Wu Zi missed a lot during his hospitalization, and he still doesn't know many things.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't." Xi Fengyu shook his finger secretively, "The less you know, the better for you."

"..." Wu Zi was confused, "Could it be that you went to eat delicious food behind our backs?"

Xi Fengyu almost spit out a mouthful of porridge with a "poof", laughed like he wanted to die, and nodded: "Yeah, yes, you can think so too."

Chiying already remembered the road from the base to Jiayuan Xiaozhu very well.

Before driving, he sent Tao Yushu a WeChat message, saying that he was leaving. Four or ten minutes later, he parked the car and was about to go upstairs when he stopped.

In the lobby not far from him, only the small lights on both sides were turned on. Under the gentle and clear light, a slender boy was standing there with his hands behind his back, slightly looking up at the notice posted on the wall.

He was wearing simple white short-sleeved and narrow-legged jeans. His calves were long and straight. The soft light cast a light yellow halo on his side face. Butterfly wings.

Chi Ying stood there without moving, watching him quietly for a while.

It was Tao Yushu who noticed a figure on the left, turned his head, met his gaze, opened his eyes wide, and instantly took on a happy look.

As if the person in the painting suddenly moved, Chi Ying suddenly realized that this was not another dream.

Chi Ying stepped forward and asked him, "Why did you get down?"

Tao and Shu jumped down from the steps in two steps, their smiling eyes crooked, "I want to see you soon."

Chi Ying was afraid that he would fall, so he opened his arms slightly, and Tao Yushu jumped into his arms accurately.

Chi Ying helped him by the shoulders to make him stand up, and Tao Yushu handed him his hand.

In Haicheng in August, the daytime is still hot and dry, but the nighttime is somewhat humid and cool.

Chi Ying wore a long-sleeved jacket, the sleeves were slightly longer, just enough to cover the hands of both of them.

They held hands quietly under the clothes.

"Have you had dinner yet?" Tao Yushu asked, shaking his little finger.

"No." Chi Ying said, "Not too hungry."

Tao Yushu took his hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat."

Chi Ying bought the house earlier than him, but he is not as familiar with the neighborhood as Tao and Shu.

Tao Yushu lived in this house for a few months, which made him know which restaurants in the surrounding area have the best food, which side road is the least crowded...etc.

He took Chi Ying through several alleys to eat an oden restaurant that was open until late at night.

There were few people in front of the shop, and the old shop owner didn't know these two young people who are almost well-known on the Internet today. He only slowly fished out the fragrant meatballs from the pot, and when he handed them over, his glasses There was a layer of water mist on them, and they were told to "eat well".

After eating a bowl of hot oden, the stomach was greatly satisfied.

The dark sky is dotted with a few scattered stars, and they are strolling on the silent street.

"I haven't congratulated you yet." Tao and Shu said, "Win the semi-finals."

"Yeah." Chi Ying said, "The final is coming soon."

"Then are you nervous?"

"To be honest?" Chi Ying smiled, "A little bit."

Tao and Shu were a little surprised.

When Chi Ying is on the field, he is always confident and calm, not nervous at all.

Then I felt normal—after all, it was a championship game, and this game was too important.

"It's been a long time since I played in the summer finals." Chi Ying looked up at the sky, with tiny stars in his eyes, and a faint smile on his lips, "I don't want to leave any regrets."

"I will win," Tao Yushu said with serious determination, like a deceitful demigod, stretched out his hand and twirled his thumb and index finger, "I've counted."

Chi Ying laughed "Puchi" and rubbed his cheek, "Got it."

Another walk.

Tao Yushu suddenly asked: "Were you also nervous in games before?"

Chi Ying shook her head, "Rarely. When I first entered the LPL... I played games as I liked."

"What do you mean?"

"That's right," Chi Ying thought for a while before explaining, "I don't really care about winning or losing, as long as I try my best."

Tao Yushu nodded, half understanding, thinking for a while, and then feeling a little dazed.

Because in a way, he himself was like that before.

Tao and Shu don't know that they are actually very similar in many ways—people who lacked love when they were teenagers, but when they grow up, they have a lot of love from strangers by accident.

Countless strangers applauded for them, laughed or shed tears for them, each of which was genuine. Although it was not what they wanted at the beginning, it was hard to live up to.

They sincerely bow to these loves, and always feel more and more lonely in the grand glory.

Loneliness and indifference are sometimes synonymous, and they are not so easy to fill.

Before that, Tao and Shu felt extraordinarily cold during the Spring Festival every year, even with the warm heating in the big house, it was a kind of unpopular cold.

At that time, he was a little confused and didn't know what he was chasing.

But last year he had a mild winter.

"But when I was in middle school, if I was in a bad mood, I would go to see the sea." Chi Ying said suddenly.

"Where is the sea?"

"The sea over there." Chi Ying turned around and smiled lightly, "My hometown is in Pingshi."

Tao and Shu were stunned.

Of course he knew that Chi Ying's hometown was also in Pingshi, and he knew it a long time ago.

But for some reason, Chi Ying never took the initiative to mention it.

"My hometown is also in Pingshi. Did I tell you?" Tao Yushu thought for a while, and vaguely remembered something, but it was not real. "Pingshi seems to have a sea."

Chi Ying nodded, with a look of nostalgia, "Very small."

"Then do you want to go?" Tao Yushu looked at him suddenly, his eyes were dark and bright.

Chi Ying was startled, "Now?"

Tao Yushu nodded affirmatively, "Xiaozhu is going back to Pingshi tonight and help me get my things, why don't we... hitch a ride back together?"
