17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎Free skating is a new battlefield. ◎

Magnolia leaves sway in the spring breeze at night, whispering unspeakable stories in the dark.

Deng Chang hooked his trouser pocket casually, tapped the hem of his trousers twice with his slender fingers: "I have nothing to do during the break, so I just looked around."

"Oh." Lucy was a little strange, "Didn't the coach tell you not to search for yourself online? Many people on the Internet just spray you for the sake of spraying you, and watching it will affect your mentality."

"I know." Deng Chang said, "So I'm searching for you."

Lucy:"……"

Searching for yourself affects your mentality, and searching for him is used to relieve boredom, right?

"You are awesome." Lu Xi gave a thumbs up unhappily.

"Thank you." Deng Chang said.

This person has a long mouth now, but it is better not to have a long mouth.

At this point, Lu Xi didn't want to talk to him at all, and walked downstairs to the dormitory with a slumped face, thinking that regardless of Huang Bin, Cui Xiao or dog Deng Chang, he would tease him whenever he saw him.

-

The corridor was very quiet, only the footsteps of the two could be heard.

Such a scene seems to be the same every morning and evening, even in different cities, making it difficult to tell which year and which month you are walking in.

Lucy felt in a trance that it was still the year of the 15-year-old training camp. After the training, the two of them walked to the dormitory together.

Until the door of the dormitory, the doors of the two of them faced each other. Lu Xi took the key, and heard the click sound of Deng Chang turning the key to open the door behind him.

It's just that after the door was pushed open with a "squeak", there was no footsteps of Deng Chang. Instead, after a short silence, he heard him say, "Come on tomorrow."

Lu Xi was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that the refrigerator would say good things, he turned around, "Come on, too."

After a pause, he suddenly smiled at Deng Chang again. In the night, the boy's eyes sparkled and his smile was touching, "But don't try too hard, after all, I still lose 6 points to you."

Deng Chang: "..."

He stared at Lucy expressionlessly, as if he was speechless, and finally said nothing, and entered the room without looking back.

-

Tomorrow's competition is free skating, the highlight of men's singles.

The free skating is twice as long as the short program regardless of the duration or the number of jumps required, so usually the final score is also twice that of the short program.

So whether you want to lose points or score points, it becomes easier.

This is why Lucy still thinks he can win even though he is 6 points behind in the short program. This season, his strength is in free skating.

In the World Youth Championship, Lu Xi scored 81 in the short program and 185 in the free skating. When he only ranked fourth in the short program, his scores in the free skating smashed the front row of chrysanthemums, and finally successfully staged a great victory.

In horizontal comparison, Deng Chang's results in the Four Continents Competition are 96 in the short program and 192 in the free skating.

Although Deng Chang's free skating score in the Four Continents Competition is higher than that of Lucy, the men's adult group has one jump more than the youth group. That is to say, the premise of this score is that Deng Chang has done one more jump than Lucy.

A jumping technical score is 10 points, but Deng Chang's score is 6 points higher than Lu Xi's. What does this mean?

Lucy is modest, but Lucy doesn't know what to say.

-

The next day, the process was the same, and I got up early in the morning to meet the coach.

They went to see Chen Qi together again, received a lecture together, and then entered the arena together.

Zhu Sibai also came over today, but he was purely watching the competition, the youth group competition will not start until the adult group is over.

So Chen Qi reluctantly didn't grab him to lecture him, and only explained some movement essentials to Lu Xi and Deng Chang alone.

When they arrived at the venue, they still warmed up first. Yesterday, He Wenbo's final ranking in the free skating was 25th, and he was one place short of qualifying for the free skating. Crane City's men's single seedling died prematurely.

However, he and Huang Bin went to the match in the morning together, of course to cheer for Lu Xi.

During the game, except for the ice rink and locker room, other areas are open to athletes freely.

Lucy found a mat in the land training room, carried it to the empty cubicle next to it, and stretched his legs.

Before the free skating, he would only do the necessary warm-up, and then he would play dead as a dead body to save as much energy as possible.

Since he wasn't doing heavy training, He Wenbo came to the training room, sat on the ground next to his mat, and chatted with him.

"I didn't know you could jump back and forth." He Wenbo said, "Amazing, Xi."

Lu Xi lowered her vertical fork, bent forward, hugged her left toe, turned her head and said to He Wenbo, "That's a secret weapon, I really can't tell you."

"Bad." He Wenbo laughed, "Brother didn't mean to complain about you, but he just thinks you're really good. They're all from the same year, and you're going to be the third kind all around. I haven't figured it out for three and a half weeks."

"Some people are almost ready for the fourth type, but I'm still falling for the third type." Lucy clicked his tongue.

"Huh? Who?" He Wenbo was stunned for a moment, "Oh—you mean Deng Chang?"

Deng Chang is not in the land classroom at the moment, so Lu Xi can forcefully say good things about him, but he doesn't quite understand why he mentions Deng Chang.

Anyway, Lucy nodded with her face pressed against her calf: "Yes."

"Brother Deng is so good? Are you rushing to 4th floor?" He Wenbo was surprised, "But..."

He looked around and saw that there was no one else in the cubicle, so he leaned over and whispered, "I think you can win this free skating, your program is too good."

"Really." Lucy turned around, facing the wall, and pressed on with another leg.

He Wenbo turned the cushion under his buttocks, followed by turning 180 degrees on the spot, and nodded repeatedly, "Yeah, let me tell you, don't be nervous, that little killer really—"

"Actually, I also think I can win." Lucy said.

He Wenbo: "..."

Why did he feel that Lu Xi, who grew up from a madman to a big player, would be nervous if he fell behind by 6 points?

"Brother Deng is amazing, our Luxi is even better." He Wenbo quickly switched his state, "The Light of the Western Crane City, let's sweep the championship."

"Of course, I will appoint a runner-up for Brother Deng." Lucy responded braggingly.

After finishing the leg press, he relaxed and stood up, stretched his waist and turned around, "I—"

Lucy got a shell.

The hand-picked runner-up, Deng Chang, had already stood at the door of the small classroom at some point, leaning against the door frame, with one long leg bent and kicked against the door, looking at him coolly with his arms crossed.

-

"I have such good expectations." Lu Xi finished speaking without changing his expression.

"Hey Xiaoxi, why are you so cowardly?" He Wenbo heard that Lu Xi's tone changed, and he didn't know what happened. He pushed the floor and turned back 180 degrees, including the person and the mat, "It's really not..."

When he raised his head, he happened to meet Deng Chang's expressionless eyes.

He Wenbo: "..."

He Wenbo swallowed sharply, and said with a dry smile, "There's nothing wrong with it, ahaha, right Brother Deng."

Deng Chang ignored him, and silently looked at Lu Xi again.

This person's appearance was sharply cold, and when he looked at him with a blank face, he was even more stressed.

Lu Xi was timid at first, but seeing Deng Chang's death staring face, he became more and more courageous.

He sat up straight, and said confidently: "You said you, why do you like to listen to people's corners?"

Unexpectedly, Deng Chang asked coolly, "I'm not staying here. Is it because I want passers-by to listen to your grand speech?"

Lucy was taken aback.

Although this small classroom is located in the back, it's not like no one will pass by.

But standing here, Deng Chang is like an artificial ice machine. People usually look at him from afar and in awe, and then they will never lean over here again.

In fact, it was nothing to be heard by Deng Chang, at most it was a little embarrassing, after all, Lu Xi didn't say anything that he shouldn't say, he was just bragging with his good brother, and it was just bragging about how awesome he was within his own ability.

But it is one thing to be heard by Deng Chang, but another thing to be heard by other provincial team players passing by.

It's hard to guarantee that you won't be talked about "Lu Xi can really pretend", after all, as a peer, you are a hundred times more dazzling, and it's normal to be jealous of some people in the dark.

So Deng Chang stands here...

It was even considerate.

In addition to being unscrupulous, Lu Xi's biggest characteristic is knowing good and evil, so although Deng Chang's tone was cold, after understanding his true intentions, Lu Xi still expressed his gratitude to him awkwardly.

The hand-picked runner-up was even more indifferent to this matter. He nodded, said nothing, turned around and drifted away like a ball of ice fog.

Lu Xi has long been used to Deng Chang's virtue. He has been like this since the earliest days in the provincial team, but He Wenbo is purely far-sighted towards Deng Chang and has never been in contact with him. An "O" shape froze in place, until Deng Chang disappeared, and he let out a sigh of relief: "This Brother Deng is really..."

After thinking about it for a long time, I don't know how to evaluate: "What a god."

"Isn't it?" Lucy said.

-

In fact, the free skating competition over there has already started, but because Lu Xi ranked second in the competition, he will not appear until the last group, and the waiting time is almost two hours.

After a long time, it was finally Lucy's turn to play the last group.

Among the yellow, blue and green training uniforms, only the national team's jacket is red and white.As soon as Lu Xi, Deng Chang, and Liu Xinyu played during the warm-up time, the atmosphere of the audience became lively.

After yesterday's short program, the attendance rate of men's singles today is even higher than yesterday, and there are scalpers selling tickets at high prices outside the venue.

Because yesterday Lu Xi and Deng Chang were on the trending searches again, and even Deng Chang's "Flying Apsaras" was even higher in the trending searches.

But free skating is a new battlefield.

The first four people finished skating, each of them took four and a half minutes, plus the equal time, almost half an hour passed, but it seemed like a blink of an eye to Lucy.

Liu Xinyu's free skating score has been displayed on the screen, with 165.60 points and a total score of 246.65, temporarily ranking first.

"It's time to play." Chen Qi patted Lu Xi's back lightly, "Don't be nervous."

Lu Xi nodded, took a deep breath, opened the door of the ice rink, and walked onto the ice. When a close-up of him appeared on the big screen, the audience cheered enthusiastically.

-

Lu Xi moved his limbs around the field, keeping his body in good condition.He took off his training jacket and put it on Chen Qi's side. The free skating Kosten was all in pure black with a very simple cut.

The slim top with a small round neck in pure black has almost no decoration, only a row of broken diamonds inlaid from the left shoulder to the right crotch, like a ribbon, shimmering as it slides.

Lu Xi stood still in the middle of the field, and his opening action this time was very special.

He stands up straight with his left leg, the back of his right foot is pointing to the ground, and his left hand is on his hips. This is a posture similar to "relaxing". A fairly casual style for a figure skating starting position.

After pressing his right hand to his face, Lucy tilted his head slightly to the left.

This movement is very playful, but the last fixed movement is that the boy raised his head, and the tip of his index finger was facing the small mole at the end of his eye.

In the close-up of the camera, the young man's right hand "gun" is pressed against his face, his light red lips are slightly pursed, his gaze is slightly downward, his delicate face has nothing to do with "baby baby" now, full of a sense of alienation and burnout.

The change in the temperament of the two people made the audience gasp in surprise.

"No. 2 player Lu Xi, the national team."

"Get ready for the free skating."

With a sound of "ding", the music started.

The free skating soundtrack is from the soundtrack of the movie "Kill Bill":

"The Flower of Carnage", "Main Title" and, "Battle without honor or humanity".

This is the set of free skating that Lu Xi stunned the entire Internet, smashed the hot searches, and chased four people to win the World Youth Championship.

In this set of performances, he will play a killer.
