nosy on you

Beach Volleyball Ⅰ

After returning to the hotel, Gu Xi dragged the small coffee table on the balcony into the room, then took out the packing box from the bag and spread it out on the top. The moment the box lid was opened, the scent of chili oil and cumin immediately diffused in the air.

Along the way, he was pondering how to answer rigorous doubts.

When he was in college, he once represented his class in the school's volleyball game. Although he was not the tallest, technically speaking, he was among the best in terms of jumping ability and explosive power.

The coach of the school team invited him to join the main attack several times, but Gu Xi flatly refused.

He is really not interested in this kind of team sports that requires the cooperation of all members. It is okay to play a ticket once in a while. Let him train on time and on time, and then fight hard on the court with a group of teammates who don't know each other. , I feel embarrassed even thinking about it.

The two of them opened a can of beer, and Gu Xi casually picked out a bunch of grilled squid and slowly ate them: "The five basic technical movements of volleyball are serve, pad, pass, buckle, block..."

"I know that." Yan Jing raised the jar and took a sip.

"Have you played indoor volleyball before?" Gu Xi looked at him.

"Beat." Nodding rigorously.

"Then what are you asking..." Gu Xi clicked his tongue, "What position are you playing?"

"There is no place..." Yan Jing smiled a little embarrassedly, "I just played casually by myself in physical education class, and I didn't get to play games or anything, but Mu Xue taught me for a while, she is very good. "

"Mu Xue can still play volleyball?" Gu Xi took two sips of beer, "I can't tell."

"She was a tomboy when she was in high school, and she knew all kinds of balls..." Yan Yan said, "The school's basketball team and volleyball team both wanted to recruit her, but in the end she rejected them all, saying that neither side should offend."

"It's quite individual..." Gu Xi leaned on the back of the chair and laughed, "Then your class should have practiced separately, right?"

The smile on the corner of the rigorous mouth froze, and he was stunned for five seconds before he spoke: "After practice, after the boys were divided into teams, there were two more people. I have always been a substitute and never played."

Gu Xi felt quite uncomfortable in his heart, and was particularly annoyed at how he would ask such a stupid question. Since childhood, Yan Jing had been excluded by his classmates because of the gossip caused by his "parents" suddenly abandoning him.

Anyone with a wrinkle in the brain can expect this to be the result.

"It's okay..." Gu Xi cleared his throat and changed the topic, "Beach volleyball has much less rules than indoor volleyball, and it's more about leisure and entertainment. Maybe the company can't even find a professional referee."

"Then tell me, what are the rules?" Yan Yan picked up a scallop and put it to his mouth to suck it.

"There are no rules..." Gu Xi thought for a while, but was afraid that speaking too complicated would cause too much psychological pressure on him, so he turned a blind eye, "You can kick with your feet if you want."

"Nonsense..." Yan Jing listened happily, "Isn't that football?"

"Really, let's do this..." Gu Xi turned on the TV, took out his phone from his pocket to find a video, and then projected the video on the screen, "While watching, listen to my explanation. ask."

"Yeah." Rigorously moved the chair closer, staring at the screen intently.

Although it was just a small competition, he showed his heart. This serious attitude fascinated Gu Xi. Not only that, but his enthusiasm for work and life is very rare in this impetuous era.

"Your strength is not enough. Tomorrow you will be mainly responsible for passing and saving the ball..." Gu Xi said, "Each team cannot hit the ball more than three times. When passing the ball, you must pay attention to it. The trajectory of the ball must be in line with your shoulders. The line is vertical."

"What do you mean the line connecting the shoulders is vertical?" Yan Jing turned around with a confused expression.

Gu Xi raised his arms, opened his hands naturally above his head and bent them into hemispheres, leaned his wrists back slightly, and with his thumbs facing each other, he spelled out an upside-down Chinese character horoscope, and then pushed up twice.

"If you connect your shoulders into a horizontal line, the trajectory of the thrown ball will be a vertical line..." Gu Xi made a gesture with his arms crossed, "The two lines must be perpendicular."

"Understood..." Yan Jing said OK, "I don't care if it's offensive or not."

"Of course not..." Gu Xi's confidence quickly deflated like a discouraged ball, and he felt exhausted even if he wanted to get angry, "If I attack alone, I will easily be blocked when I encounter a stronger opponent. die."

"Then what should I do..." Yan Jing stretched out his hand and stroked his hair twice, "Didn't you say I can't do it?"

"Hey..." Gu Xi sighed, "I'll teach you a secret move, I guarantee you will master it as soon as you learn it."

After studying the tactics and videos for most of the night, they drank a dozen beers. In the end, the two of them fell asleep on the bed without taking a shower. The "X-Men" they planned to watch didn't even release the opening credits. .

When he woke up, his eyes were hurt by the sunlight, and he moved his body rigorously, feeling a little heavy on his back and legs. He turned his head to look, and almost fainted in fright.

Gu Xi's face filled the entire screen, the edges even overflowing the eye sockets, and his right arm and leg were all pressed against his body.

You really shouldn't be drinking.

Why the hell are you sleeping together again?

Yan Yan took a look at the mobile phone on the bedside table, and fell asleep until 08:30.

"Hey, get up!" In order to avoid being misunderstood as a furtive maniac again, he first yelled against Gu Xi's ear.

"Fuck!" Gu Xi turned over and sat up, omitting even the steps of waking up, "What's wrong with you?"

"Hurry up, take a shower, change clothes, and have breakfast..." Yan Jin took a pair of underwear from his backpack and rushed into the bathroom ahead of him, "I don't want to do the money grabbing dance anymore."

The hotel provided a ready-made venue for the competition. When they rushed to the beach, most of the participating teams were warming up on the sidelines. Colleagues who did not sign up also came to join in the fun, gathering in groups of threes and twos to watch the competition.

As soon as they appeared, they became the focus of everyone's attention. Several female employees of the sending and receiving team waved and shouted: "Watermelon Eyes, sister supports you, come on!"

Rigorously pulled the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, and three black lines instantly appeared on his forehead.

Fuck, the WeChat username is completely exposed.

Gu Xi was wearing a loose white vest and dark blue beach shorts today. His graceful muscle lines had glowing effects under the sun. He pulled his bangs up and turned his neck smartly, which immediately evoked screams .

In contrast, Yan Jing's round-neck T-shirt and light gray sports shorts with a cartoon Mickey printed on it look much childish, but his fan base is no less than Gu Xi's.

After all the players arrive, they will be divided into groups by lottery, and men and women will compete in two different courts at the same time.

The 9 teams in the women's group will have a bye in the first round. A group of girls are more nervous than seeking marriage. They all want to be the lucky ones who win the gold medal.

When the host called the sixth group, Gu Xi pushed him from the side: "Go and smoke..."

"Me? No!" Yan Jin immediately shook his head and refused, "I have never won a lottery in my life, and I have almost never won a competition, so let it be my luck."

"Go if I tell you!" Gu Xi patted him on the back lightly twice, "Don't worry, I'm here this time."

Yan Jing was stunned for five seconds, feeling that the nervousness and the noisy surroundings seemed to disappear together. He breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists, turned and walked towards the logistics department.

This time it's me.

Although it was just five simple words, Gu Xi's words were full of power, because of these words, he firmly believed that the two of them could win this time, and this time was different from before.

But this idea was quickly shattered by the pinpong ball with the serial number written on it in his hand.

Fuck it different!

There are 16 table tennis balls in the lottery box, representing the 16 participating teams in the men's group. There are two for each serial number from 1 to 8. Those who draw the same serial number will be opponents, and they will appear in order according to the number.

The preliminaries adopt a one-round elimination system until the top four are determined.

In other words, if they lose any of the first two games, there will be nothing for them afterward.

Staring at the Arab number 1 on the yellow ball rigorously, he couldn't laugh or cry. After seeing the list of personnel posted by the logistics department, he just wanted to find a piece of tofu and hit him to death.

It's okay to make their first appearance, but unexpectedly they will face Zou Tianhao and the curly-haired man.

He doesn't know how strong these two people are, but their inherent advantages are obvious.

Zou Tianhao is about 1.9 meters tall, and the curly-haired guy is about the same height as Gu Xi. This combination can't find the second team even if you look at the entire men's group. Just looking at the appearance can give people a strong sense of oppression.

In order to shorten the game time, the referee made some changes in the rules, and the team that scored 11 points first was considered the winner.

If the two teams are tied at 10-10, the side with a margin of two points can win one game, two out of three games.

"Don't look..." Gu Xi came over and put his arms around his shoulders, "It doesn't matter who you compare with, brother will take you flying."

"Okay, brother..." Yan Yan looked at the self-confidence on his face for no reason, and suddenly couldn't help laughing, "You mustn't crash just after taking off."

"Can you talk?" Gu Xi pointed at him.

Before the game started, the referee confirmed again that Gu Xi and Zou Tianhao were No. 1. They had to guess the coin to decide the field and the right to serve. Gu Xi seemed to be lucky, and won on the starting line before the game started.

"Heads, Gu Xi chooses first." The referee showed the coin on the back of his hand.

"I choose to receive the serve." Gu Xi said.

The referee nodded, turned around and looked at Zou Tianhao: "You choose the field, and you will serve first."

"Let's go to the left then." Zou Tianhao's expression was a little displeased.

"How did you choose..." Yan Jing didn't understand what was going on, and when he followed Gu Xi to the right, he whispered in his ear, "Are we at a disadvantage?"

"I'll explain to you later..." Gu Xi rubbed his head twice, "It's time to play..."

This intimate move caused the young lady on the sidelines to be restless again, and the screams felt like they were about to trigger a tsunami of magnitude [-].
