◎Be each other's stars◎

Here Lu Xi picked up two and a half weeks, and on the other hand, the national team entered a state of intense pre-match training.

Like every time before, the players participating in the competitions will go to the competition hall to participate in joint training in order, and they will train in the training hall at other times, and no one else is allowed to enter the arena casually.

The only exception to "anyone" is Lucy.

He watched not only Deng Chang's training, but also Liu Xinyu and Zhu Sibai's training.

-

That night Liu Xinyu tried a symbolic 4Lo and fell, got up, suddenly a head popped out from the side of the locker on the ice rink, blinking a pair of dark eyes looking at him.

Liu Xinyu: "..."

Lucy made a comparison to him.

"What are you doing here!" Liu Xinyu said angrily.

"I think there is something wrong with your take-off movement from the back and the outside." Lucy said.

"Nonsense, of course I know I have a problem! No problem, can I do this! If there is nothing wrong, you can go!" Liu Xinyu shouted angrily.

Lucy opened the door of the ice rink and came up, slid in front of him and said seriously: "I think although you can't do other moves, you should be able to jump from the back and the outside. Didn't you realize that your land class is different from the take-off on the ice?" ?"

Afterwards, Lucy gestured for a take-off movement. Because he would not really jump when doing the movement, each decomposition was very slow, like a slideshow played frame by frame. Finally, on the eve of take-off, Lucy's center of gravity was very low. He reached out and gestured between his left calf and right calf, "Try to adjust to this posture when you take off?"

"Out—" Liu Xinyu's third call got stuck following Lu Xi's gestures.

Liu Xinyu's level has always been like that, between the second echelon and the third echelon.

In fact, for many years in the past, the second position of the national team's men's singles has been at this level, and the first position has been hovering between the first and second echelons.Including before Lu Xi and Deng Chang joined the team, he and Cui Xiao were the first and second positions respectively, and there was no problem.

But both Lu Xi and Deng Chang were too powerful, and they rushed directly to the front row of the first echelon, which made him, the third position of the national team who was far behind, very embarrassing.

In fact, I haven't practiced the third quadruple jump for so many years. Liu Xinyu is already in a bad state. Gao Zhuoxiao is here. He is going to retire after skating this year.

Why not retire?In the World Series, there are at most three people.

4Lo is advanced four weeks, Liu Xinyu's thinking is probably that I can't jump out anyway, just practice casually.Lucy told him so seriously, but he was stunned.

"Try it." Lucy said, "You have so many competitions to participate in this year."

-

After this day, Chen Qi was very curious to find that Liu Xinyu's daily training time was greatly extended. He used to be the most fishy among all the contestants, but now the training intensity is almost equal to the two groups of popular players this season, Deng Chang in the men's singles and the doubles. Qin Shu/Hu Muyu.

This made him quite surprised, and he sighed, "This kid changed his sex before retiring."

Zhu Sibai really gave up. He was not selected for the national team at all, because at the age of 16, he still hadn’t mastered a quadruple jump.

There are many players like this, and they can be found everywhere in the major provincial teams. This year, Zhu Sibai is promoted tactically to collect headcounts, and he probably won't be able to make it in the free skating.

On Deng Chang's side, the situation is not so optimistic.

What needs to be known is that although there are three players participating in the national team this year, only Deng Chang can actually play.

And at the mobilization meeting before the season, the goal set for the men's singles by the higher-ups was still "to keep three in the big competition and win one."

It is equivalent to saying that this pressure and responsibility fall entirely on Deng Chang alone.

However, Deng Chang's condition was not good in the last season, and Bao Zhongjie's affairs were not over yet. He would be arrested and questioned from time to time. Telling Deng Chang "I'll have a meeting with you later" is already a great deal of face.

Because of the height problem, the new single jump 4Lz that he has not been able to practice has still not made progress this season, so it is still the same as before, relying on the advantage of explosive power, and focusing on difficult jumps.

But this means that every time Deng Chang's show will empty out his stamina bar, there is no room for opportunism.

This season, Lao Wa retired, and the strength of the Russian men's singles is slightly weaker, but the American team's Geers lost badly in the World Championships last season, and this season he clearly wants to take revenge.

And his younger brother Nick, the champion of this year's World Youth Championship, has a very strong momentum. He participated in the world's first B-level event this season, and he performed a set of 5 quadruple jumps. When he won the championship, he was ahead of No. .280 plus points.

Generally, top players would not participate in the B-level competition so early, at least not so difficult. Nick's move was clearly a high-profile demonstration to other players.

On the other side, Orihara Chisato is still at his peak, and Asano Subaru has also become stronger.

邓畅的「保三争一」在这样的围追堵截下变得更难,所以他这赛季上了难度,把原本4F+3T+3T的连跳升级成了4F+3Lo+3T,在连跳系数的加持下能有接近2分的技术分加分。

4F+3Lo+3T, before last year, it was a jump that only Laowa could do in the world.

Deng Chang's training situation is not optimistic.Less than a month before the start of the first round of the Grand Prix, he still failed to cleanly complete this combo in the Hele.

The coaching staff considered whether to lower the difficulty.

Because Deng Chang's state this year is indeed not as good as last year. It is not easy to face such a challenge.

But Deng Chang refused.

It is said that if you still feel that it is not enough on the eve of the competition, you can temporarily report a low price, but in the Grand Prix final and the World Championships in February next year, under the premise that the stability of the single jump cannot be guaranteed, if you want to achieve the goal of "guaranteeing three and competing for one", He had to figure out this difficult combo jump.

-

At the end of October, the coolness of late autumn filled the air, and it rained heavily in the city that day.

Just after dinner in the afternoon, Deng Chang was called over temporarily, saying that he had a very important question.

The person in charge of the inquiry was not in the same group as the coaching staff, so he would not take Deng Chang's training time into account, but because Chen Qi was the coach, he could attend and bring an assistant, so Lu Xi went as that assistant.

Every time the questioners didn't save any face, they questioned Deng Chang in a tone like extorting a confession by torture. It seemed that Bao Zhongjie brought out evidence that was very beneficial to him. The questioning time this time was very long.

Later, Lu Xi couldn't remember what he said, but only remembered that the other party asked repeatedly.

"Are you sure you're not involved in this?"

"Are you sure you're completely ignorant?"

"What Bao Zhongjie said is all lies, you mean that, right?"

Deng Chang listened quietly, nodded after asking questions, and said the same sentence again and again: "I'm sure, I'm innocent."

The lights on the recording equipment stayed on.

After nine o'clock in the evening, the inquiry was over, and Deng Chang had to go to training.Lu Xi followed, logically speaking, he couldn't follow, but the team member or Chen Qi gave Lu Xi the green light.

It was too late, and Cui Xiao was not allowed to stay here to accompany him. Lu Xi took the tape recorder and played music with the most primitive equipment.

Zhou Yuanxi was supposed to be interviewing today, but Lu Xi thought he had withdrawn after so long, but he still hadn't left. He was sitting in the lobby of the gymnasium waiting for the two of them. When he saw Lu Xi coming over, he asked, "Can I still record today?"

Lu Xi thought that he had waited for a long time, and said, "Okay."

So, together with reporter Zhou, they entered the ice rink with the video camera and tape recorder.

Deng Chang was training on the ice, while Lu Xi and reporter Zhou chatted one after another, looking at Deng Chang all the time.

"I can't tell from this, but I heard that skating a whole program is very tiring, isn't it?" Zhou Yuanxi asked.

"Yeah." Lucy affirmed, "It's just that it's not so obvious because of the inertia. Jumping is really tiring, and your legs will go weak after a few jumps."

Deng Chang is in Hele on the ice rink. Sometimes Hele only does dance moves and it is not difficult, but this time it is difficult.

"The next one is the top jumper, right?" Zhou Yuanxi also almost remembered Deng Chang's movements.

"That's right, you have a very good memory..." Lu Xi just nodded, before his words stopped abruptly.

After 4F+3Lo on the ice, Deng Chang failed to do the third ice jump. When he landed on the ice, his foot became unstable and he fell hard.

-

After Deng Chang fell, Lu Xi didn't feel anything at first.Wrestling is so normal.

But for a full two seconds, he remained motionless.

During these two seconds, Lucy's heart twitched violently, and all the bad imaginations rushed into his mind, and it almost felt like his heart stopped beating.

He yelled "Brother Deng" with a blank mind, opened the door of the ice rink and rushed up.

Fortunately, when he was on the ice, Deng Chang stood up and waved at him, meaning he was awake.

-

"How is it? Are you injured?" Lu Xi rushed to Deng Chang's side and knelt down eagerly, "Do you want me to call the team doctor? Is the bone okay? Where does it hurt?"

Deng Chang sat up slowly, the light outlined his thin figure on the ice, and the pale arcs on the ice were scratches left by Deng Chang's skate blade.

There is an indescribable depression.

"It's okay, don't worry." Deng Chang shook his head.

While lying down, the body temperature melted the ice, and the sleeves and trousers were wet.

At the first moment, Lu Xi felt grateful for his survival after the catastrophe, but then that emotion turned into anger, and he wanted to ask Deng Chang why he kept still to scare people when he was not injured.

But this thought just passed away in a flash, and it turned into a thin pain on the tip of his heart.

Compared with the injuries Deng Chang encountered recently, it seems that there is no difference at all.

-

Deng Chang also felt that Lu Xi would be angry, because he was in a hurry for him, so he was angry.

Holding the ice surface with one hand, he explained in as relaxed a tone as possible: "Xiaoxi, don't be angry, I'm just a little tired all of a sudden. I want to take it easy. I made you worry, I'm sorry."

Not injured, but hurt and frustrated, so I didn't get up immediately.

It's good to want to lie there and pretend to be dead, even for a while.

But Lucy has been injured before, and he is more afraid of getting hurt than anyone else. He should at least do something to prevent Lucy from worrying.

Just thinking about it, a hand landed on Deng Chang's shoulder, and gently squeezed him.

"It's okay." Lucy said softly seriously, "I understand."

Deng Chang turned his head to the side, and Lu Xi looked at him, with a warm smile on his face, but there were faint tears in his eyes, with a kind of sour tenderness in his expression.

Yes, of course Lucy will understand.

Because they are the only twin stars standing side by side on the top of the world, only they understand all the encounters of each other.

Whether it is excitement or anticipation, whether it is lonely or pain.

-

The light reflected in Lucy's dark eyes, making his pupils a deep grape color.It is clear that Lu Xi's position is lower at this time, and his face is raised, but in Deng Chang's eyes, he is like a god from a high place, only he can give tenderness and love.

Without thinking too much, Deng Chang grabbed Lu Xi's wrist.

Lu Xi glanced in Zhou Yuanxi's direction, and the red light of the camera "recording" went out when he turned his gaze, and the automatic door slowly opened and closed. Reporter Zhou looked at them with distressed and gentle expressions. Look, exit the training area.

No need to say anything.

There was heavy rain outside the gymnasium, and the heavy rain fell on the semicircular roof and poured down again. The rain and fog seemed to add a soft light curtain to the stadium.

The melody of "The Tempest Sonata" was still playing on the recorder, and the tone of the first movement was anxious and eager, as if it brought the dark clouds and pouring rain outside the stadium into the stadium.

The only light on the ice rink seemed to be the only halo on a rainy night. The light scattered into lines and spread out on the mirror-like ice surface.

All the light fell on the people on the ice rink, and everything else was pitch black like night. The ice surface formed a dream world, and there were only the two of them in the world.

Lu Xi raised her head, leaned over, and kissed Deng Chang gently when she closed her eyes.

When Deng Chang held Lu Xi's face, there was still water from ice on the gloves. The temperature in the training ground was very low. The lips of the two were cold at first, but they finally became warm when they touched each other.

On a night of heavy rain, in the rapid and chaotic movement of the sonata, two teenagers knelt on the empty ice of the training hall, embraced and kissed delicately.

It is the comfort in despair, the silent and passionate entanglement of the heart.

Lu Xi and Deng Chang have been together for nearly ten years. They are rivals, comrades-in-arms, confidants, and lovers. At no moment have they been closer to each other than they are now.

The low temperature of the ice rink, the torrential rain outside the pavilion, and even all the storms and thorns in the past few months have all become footnotes to this scene.

In the endless night.

both you and me.

Be each other's stars.
