It's better to fall in love with an old enemy

Then the staff smiled and rejected Dylan's shameless request.

It's not a kid who just came out to participate in the competition, how could he ask such a question.It's the same when you go to the backstage waiting area to watch the game. Why do you have to wait on the sidelines and don't want to leave.

The staff really couldn't figure it out.

Dylan didn't insist after being rejected, and followed the staff to the backstage.

Xiyuan Temple on the field didn't know about this episode, he was waiting for the first note of "Moonflower" to sound.From the beginning of this season, almost everyone thought that Xiyuan Temple was an artistic player, but in fact he was not.He won't let himself immerse himself in the music, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about expressing the content and emotion of the music.These are related to the preparation of the music itself. He will work with the choreographer and coach Ono to spare no effort during the choreography process of the early stage choreography and between competition schedules.This is why two or three days is enough time for choreography, but he will spend a week or even two weeks to complete it.

In the early preparation and training process, Xiyuan Temple will try his best to master the emotions and description content of the music, so that he will have enough energy to think about how to complete his technical movements on the field. more subtle.

For example, now that the 15-second opening footwork has passed, Xiyuan Temple needs to jump off the ice within two seconds, and complete the four-wheel turn of the hook jump within one second of air time.This jump is the most difficult except Axel's quadruple jump, and it is also the jump with the highest score.Xiyuan Temple's 4Lz success rate is actually not high, so the two seconds of his preparation before take-off are particularly important.

"Now that you've decided you're going to do the upperhook, we'd better give the jump a little longer preparation time. Although you can sometimes jump the hook like any other jump, it doesn't take as long to prepare. Hand jumping, but that kind of success rate is not very good. Even if the 4Lz connection is not required, even if the falling ice is flawed, you are allowed, as long as you don’t fall.”

Ono Matsuhei kept telling him before going on the court. The era of GOE plus five and minus five is absolutely high-risk and high-return. The more difficult the jump, the higher the bonus points. Relatively, if there is a major mistake, such as falling or dropping the group, the loss is almost irreversible.

At the beginning of the era of plus and minus five, it was to limit the players from increasing the technical difficulty too crazy.It has been more than 20 years since it was first implemented. The players who have grown up one after another have tended to be stable in the mastery of the quadruple jump. Bring the layering up far apart.

This kind of situation is actually not good. Other players can catch the high income of adding five. If you can't catch it, then this game may not be able to stand up.The real technical gap is difficult to make up.

The advantages of Xiyuan Temple's "technical brain" are revealed.

The two seconds before the 4Lz jump are enough for him to decide the trajectory, angle and timing of using the blade.With a snap, he touched the ice with his right foot and took off with the outer edge of his left foot.The take-off axis did not deviate in the slightest, and he clasped his arms tightly to complete the four-round rotation within that second.There was another clear and audible sound of blade touching ice.Xiyuanji stretched his arms and landed on the ice in a gesture that looked very stretched.

After a change of edge and an upper body twist, he took a few simple but very challenging footwork to enter the first set of spins.While changing the difficulty posture and spinning, he complained in his heart: This ice is really hard enough.

The ice falling around the hook just now looked very easy, but in fact, at the moment of falling on the ice, the instantaneous impact force was all supported by the right foot, and the hard ice surface made this force even heavier, which excited Xiyuan. Si clenched his teeth so as not to exhale the pain.

It is easy for Xiyuan Temple to complete the fourth level with rotation, but the next Axel jump is another big challenge.

"He hates Axel jump very much." Xiaocheng, who was sitting in the background watching the battle, also looked at Xiyuansi who had completed the Yan-style turn, and suddenly said such a sentence.

Dylan White asked a little puzzled why.The Axel dance of Xiyuan Temple has always been of good quality, and it doesn't seem to be very annoying.

Xiao Cheng glanced at Dilan, seeing that he was so thirsty for knowledge, he reluctantly moved his buttocks to get closer to Dilan, and quietly revealed the old background of Xiyuan Temple to him.

"He was promoted to the senior group a year late, you know. In fact, the Ice Association planned to let him be promoted that year, but in the end they gave me the place."

"Yeah, I've heard about it, so why?"

"He was injured before he was promoted to the group. His right foot was broken and he couldn't compete. It was because of the A jump injury."

"Impossible. I've seen the video of the World Youth Championship at that time. He's 3A pretty solid. It doesn't look like he's going to break a bone." Dylan said with a shocked face.

Xiao Cheng shook his head, lowered his voice and said, "It's not 3A, he was practicing 4A."

Every time before reaching 3A, the "technical brain" of Xiyuan Temple always short-circuits.At that time, after missing the opportunity to be promoted due to a broken bone in 4A, he even had a reflexive resistance to 3A.

It's all because of the bad fall.

At that time, Xiyuan Temple was the first time to pick up the "fishing rod" and try to go around.Coach Ono originally didn't want him to jump so quickly, firstly because he thought the jump was too difficult to rush, and secondly because Xiyuanji's training intensity was already very high that day, and his body was already tired.All in all, Ono disagreed. He picked up the fishing rod and tried 4A.

However, the young boy of Xiyuan Temple, who was on the verge of 18, rarely showed his rebellious temper, and insisted on giving it a try.Ono Matsudaira annoyed him so much that he almost breathed fire out of his nose, but he let go of his resignation, put on his skates and accompanied him personally.Every player is a big baby, so don't break it.

Still something went wrong.

Ono Matsudaira's worries were justified. After jumping several times in succession, Xiyuanji really began to feel tired.He kicked forward with his floating leg and soared into the air, and his height and distance were actually very good.But the accident happened during the second or so when he was in the air.

Xiyuan Temple wanted this attempt to succeed too much. His muscles were too tense, and a muscle on the side of his waist suddenly convulsed when he turned in the air, causing endless pain.Immediately, Xiyuan Temple's eyes went dark, and in just a moment, he lost control of his body and almost fell straight down.

Just this time, keep your right foot off the ice.

Broken bones, bedridden, missed promotion.

Ono Matsudaira was almost frightened out of his wits by his fall.For the first time since Xiyuan Temple was brought into the club, Ono pointed at his nose and cursed.

Xiyuan Temple knew that he was wrong. He lay on the hospital bed with a plaster cast on his right foot and had to be hung up. He pitifully apologized to the coach.

After Dylan heard this classic story of "a rebellious teenager who eats his own blood on his own blood" from his childhood, he really choked a little.He wouldn't feel wrong at all if the protagonist of this story was replaced by someone else, but it turned out to be something done by the handsome beauty in his heart.This black history is too unexpected.

"Ah!" Dylan suddenly remembered something.

"Therefore, there is a reason why his 3A standby time is so long!"

After hearing what Dilan said, Xiao Chengnei became unhappy immediately for some reason: "Why is the standby time so long, it's obviously okay!"

Dylan was stunned by his protective tone: "Does Xiyuan Temple know that you speak for him like this?"

Xiao Chengnei also shut up, and added a "hmph" as a bonus.

When the backstage was making jokes, 3A at Xiyuan Temple saw that the take-off axis was crooked, and was on the verge of leaving.

Dylan looked at the shaft that was so crooked that it flew up, and grinned for him.

Everyone thought that the 3A in Xiyuan Temple would lose points when he fell down, but he insisted on pulling himself back when he fell off the ice, and managed to stabilize his body, but at least he didn't fall.

"Wow, this ancestral knee in your country really has nothing to say." Dylan applauded Xiyuan Temple, earnestly fulfilling his duties as a passionate audience.

Xiao Chengnei still didn't answer, he imagined the dangerous 3A just now into himself, and found out with displeasure that if such a situation really happened to him, he might not be able to save this jump.

Xiyuan Temple also breathed a sigh of relief on the court.This time I wanted to shorten the slide time a bit, but I got up too fast and almost collapsed.He quickly made a small calculation in his mind.Although this 3A was rescued, the number of weeks should be doubtful, just on the verge of being caught or not.

Originally, the planned combo in the back was 4T3T for stability. Xiyuansi planned to do it again, and immediately changed the composition of the program, using 4F3T to make up for the points that might have been lost earlier.

He jumped directly into Philip's quadruple with a Mohawk step, tapped the ice with his right foot, turned around, and landed on the ice steadily.Immediately, a triple axel with hands raised was also completed in a refreshing manner.

So far, the three required jumps of Xiyuan Temple's short program have all been completed, and the audience can't wait to cheer for him.He presented the first clean program in this men's singles competition for everyone, although it was only superficially clean.

After the remaining two sets of spins and grading footwork, Xiyuan Temple has won the game among the few players currently playing.

Holding the Totoro doll thrown to him by fans, he sat in the KC area with Ono Matsuhei and got his best result in the short program season.

Under the guidance of the staff, Xiyuan Temple went to the backstage to meet up with Di Lan and Xiao Cheng who are currently ranked second and third. He shook hands with them in a good mood.

"I beat you in the short program!" Xiyuansi said and shook the little chinchilla still in his hand, "I have more dolls too!"

"All right, all right," Dylan couldn't laugh or cry, "There's still tomorrow."

"You're going to have your hair cut!" Xiyuansi seemed to be in a really good mood, and even pinched the little tucker on the back of Dylan's head.

"Shut scissors, but you have to beat me first."

Xiao Chengnei also sat on No.3's small sofa and wanted to shrink himself into a ball. He felt that his previous impression of these two people had been refreshed again.

He stared at the two people's suspected flirting behavior, and secretly slandered: What's the matter, are these two brothers suddenly so hot-eyed now?
