[Short track speed skating] From academic master to Winter Olympic champion

Xu Qing seemed to use a lot of force this time, but he didn't really use any force. He was still very measured.

But even so, the soreness that went straight to the brain made Gu Ran almost cry out.

Gu Ran raised her head, not only her ears were red, but her face was also red, even her eyes were red and sparkling, as if there were tears in her eyes.

He stared at Xu Qing viciously, he didn't care about respecting the teacher, he opened his mouth to scold something, but Xu Qing pushed him back with quick eyes and quick hands: "Lie down, don't move!"

He also ordered the team doctor: "Relieve him thoroughly, so as to save him from being injured in the game later."

The team doctor nodded: "No problem!"

Gu Ran said aggrievedly: "I just got you a silver medal, and you're doing this to me?"

Xu Qing immediately corrected him: "Your silver medal is not for me, but for yourself. Also, what did I do to you? I don't care about you, I'm afraid you will get hurt."

He glanced at the field again, Gao Ziyi's game was about to start: "Okay, you can enjoy it slowly, I'm leaving."

Gu Ran stared at his back and walked down the steps quickly, and finally cursed out the sentence she didn't scold just now: "Mr. Xu is a real dog."

The team doctor happily worked while watching the master and apprentice hurt each other, mainly to see Xu Qing hurt the younger apprentice.After Xu Qing walked away, he sighed: "Director Xu is actually not easy."

"Huh?" Gu Ran didn't understand. "He relies on his identity as the head coach to bully us weak and helpless players every day. What's so difficult for him?"

The team doctor switched sides and began to relax the muscles on the other side: "Why do you think he cares so much about the physical condition of each of you, and hurried up to ask about the situation when he heard that you were at risk of injury?"

Gu Ran also knew that they, Xu Guidance, had nothing wrong with this person except that he hid his knife in his smile, was full of bad taste, liked to practice corporal punishment, never counted his words, sarcasm, revenge, and cunning.

The 1500-meter final is going on on the field, with 6 athletes participating.Besides Gao Ziyi, another player from Province J also entered the final.

But his strength was mediocre, and he fell to the end as soon as he started, and he had already opened a long distance from the first few people, so he couldn't help Gao Ziyi much.

Province H also has two players entering the finals. Jiang Hongyi is Gao Ziyi's old opponent, and his teammates are not weak.

The two of them now occupy the first and second positions, and Gao Ziyi can only slide behind them.

Gu Ran's muscles are still relaxing, and he can only watch the game through the gap in the aisle of the stands.I don't know if the cramped muscles have been relieved, or he was too absorbed in watching his senior's game. In short, the soreness that hit his forehead just now has eased a lot.

Gu Ran has always believed that among the four people in their dormitory, Gao Ziyi is the one with the strongest ability to withstand stress.

He has a kind of toughness that no one else has. No matter how hard or tired the training is, he never complains.

He looks mediocre, taciturn, and has nothing outstanding, but he is more hardworking than anyone else, and has a firm goal.

In a sense, he is the one most likely to succeed.

Gao Ziyi has always been very patient, following his own rhythm steadily.It was only on the ninth lap that he started to speed up, looking for opportunities to overtake his opponents at every corner.

His performance is very stable, so stable that when you watch his game, you won't feel thrilled.He is a person who rarely makes mistakes, without absolute certainty, he will not step forward easily.

On the tenth lap, Gao Ziyi overtook the player from Province H who was assisting Jiang Hongyi.The remaining three and a half laps are a contest between two old rivals.

Jiang Hongyi is also very strong. He and Gao Ziyi are not only opponents in domestic competitions, but also teammates of the National Youth Team, and they are quite familiar with each other.

He knew that Gao Ziyi would not act rashly if he was not fully sure, and he was not in a hurry, so he kept his own route and skating at his own pace.

So, he led the race from the very beginning to the end, until the straight before the finish line, Gao Ziyi went up to grab the finish line, but he was still a bit slower and only took second place.

This game was lackluster, and the result was no surprise. This made other people sitting in the stands watching the game feel mediocre, and it was not as exciting as the 1000-meter final just now.

In other words, as long as there is Gu Ran's match, even if it's just the semi-finals, quarter-finals, or even the preliminaries, it will be exciting.

This 14-year-old fledgling young athlete can always bring unexpected performances.Regardless of whether he is a member of the National Youth Team or the champion of the World Youth Championship, he is fearless and dares to give it a go.

"Okay!" The team doctor slapped Gu Ran's buttocks, "Get up."

Gu Ran got up and helped him put away the yoga mat.The two walked down, and the team doctor asked, "How do you feel now?"

Gu Ran stood on tiptoe to feel it, frowned and said, "The muscles feel much more relaxed, but I still feel weak all over."

"That's right!" The team doctor put the yoga mat on his back, "How can the overdrawn physical fitness recover so quickly? Let's take a good rest."

Gu Ran sighed: "I still have a 500-meter race in a while."

The team doctor patted him on the shoulder: "It's almost enough, don't work too hard, the injury will not be worth the loss."

Gu Ran said that she knew it, but she thought in her heart: I didn't meet that Meng Yuqiao in the previous qualifying rounds, and finally met in the finals, so I have to let go and have a good match.

This is the completely different side of Gu Ran and his senior brother Gao. Gao Ziyi seeks stability, while Gu Ran seeks pleasure. It is easy to get ahead in the game, but once the emotions get up, there is a kind of reckless madness.

At this time, in the stand opposite them, a total of eight athletes from the WE club came and sat in a small area.

One of them was also focusing on the opposite stand, and his thoughts coincided with that of a certain child.

Gu Ran took out the energy bar given by Team Leader Qian from his pocket, tore open the package and ate it, and took a carton of milk from his backpack. Now he has to replenish his physical strength as soon as possible to recover a little bit.

After about 10 minutes, the 500-meter final inspection began.While sitting and waiting in the inspection area, Chi Lang leaned over to care about him again: "Can you do it? I think you were so tired just now."

Gu Ranbai glanced at him: "Are you questioning me?"

Chi Lang took pleasure in other's misfortunes: "Your face has been hollowed out, I will be rude in a while."

Gu Ran sneered: "I want to see how rude you are."

Chi Lang leaned over and said viciously: "Squeeze you to the fifth place!"

Gu Ran pushed him away: "Get away for a while, so as not to fall again, it's stupid enough, if you fall again, you can only give up the treatment."

At this time, the women's 500m final was over and they were ready to play.Meng Yuqiao, who was sitting on the other side, stood up, not just intentionally or unintentionally, and glanced this way.

Gu Ran also stood up, followed by Chi Lang.

Gu Ran is used to putting on a helmet and goggles before playing, and he has always used a pair of dark goggles.After wearing it, the bright venue immediately darkened, allowing him to quickly enter the game state.

In the semi-finals, their results in this group were a little worse than the previous group, and they didn't get a good pass.Gu Ran was in the fourth lane, Meng Yuqiao was on his left, Chi Lang was on the right, and the two immortals Liu Fei and Ren Yongjie were in the first and second lanes.

With Gu Ran's current physical strength, first of all, when he started running, he had to ensure that he would not be knocked out by that stupid Chi Lang.

Sure enough, Chi Dali, a muscular man, rushed forward frantically as soon as he came up, and jumped directly in front of Gu Ran.

Although Gu Ran is physically weak, she has an advantage in the Tao, so she fought with Chi Lang without fear.

Meng Yuqiao next to him has advantages in all aspects. He didn't pay attention to the two younger brothers next to him at all, and aimed at the other two big brothers.

The five people became a mess at the bend, Meng Yuqiao was on Gu Ran's left, Chi Lang was on the right, and Liu Fei was in front of him. He was at a loss for a moment, not knowing where he should exert his strength.

Since you don't know where to exert your strength, just follow your own route.

Chi Lang worked hard for a long time, but he couldn't get ahead of him. Instead, the two had a small contact in the chaos. Although no one fell down, Chi Lang's own route deviated, and he had to Slow down a little and fall behind.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qing on the sidelines turned his head and looked at the H province's coach bench not far from him.

Province H is led by a very experienced old coach whose surname is Liu, the father of brothers Liu Fei and Liu Xu.

When he saw that Chi Lang clearly had the upper hand in the confrontation but fell behind Gu Ran in the end, he couldn't help shaking his head.

The child Chi Lang is really good in physical fitness, strong, with good muscle explosiveness, good flexibility, and a fast skating speed, but his skills and consciousness are a little weaker.

In the contact between the two, although Gu Ran lost to Chi Lang, he was able to find his route immediately, but Chi Lang couldn't.

This is the biggest difference between the two.

After this chaos, Gu Ran's poor physical fitness was even worse.

Only one lap into the race, he was a little bit immobile.

However, Meng Yuqiao was right in front of him.There is not a big gap between the two of them. As long as he works hard and works hard, he might be able to catch up.It is not impossible to catch up, look for opportunities, and surpass the opponent.

This little bit of hope is like the carrot that fell in front of the little donkey, constantly tempting him to squeeze out his little physical energy, speed up, speed up, speed up, and move forward bravely!

He had experienced a fierce 1000-meter final half an hour ago, and it was obvious that he was exhausted.

Although Meng Yuqiao was looking forward to a good match with him, it definitely wasn't today's match.

As the champion of this event in the first race, what he saw in his eyes was only the first, not Gu Ran behind him.

However, he never expected that this exhausted little guy would be so difficult to deal with.

Even though he has already fallen to fourth place, he still refuses to give up.

Meng Yuqiao is not the violent and rough guy like Chi Lang, his skills are very delicate, especially the cornering skills, and he didn't give Gu Ran any chance at all, so he opened the distance again.

On the contrary, it was Gu Ran who almost kicked the sign on the corner and threw himself flying.

At this time, Chi Lang from behind also took the opportunity to catch up, on the right side of Gu Ran, planning to use his abundant physical strength to overtake him again from the outside.

too difficult!

Seeing this scene, some people in the audience couldn't help but sigh: "If it were me, I might have given up."

"If I'm so tired, I might not even be able to skate Chi Lang."

"What are you thinking, you can't skate in the first place."

"..."

Xu Qing, who was standing on the sidelines, also felt that it was too difficult for Gu Ran. No matter what, he had tried his best.Even if he ranked fifth in the end, he should be praised for his unyielding spirit.

But Gu Ran still didn't give up. He didn't know what the physical limit was, but as long as he survived the most sore and weak stage of his leg muscles, his legs even became numb. He didn't feel much, he just knew Mechanically doing continuous knife clamping action.

Meng Yuqiao thought that Gu Ran had already been thrown away by him, so he focused all his attention on Liu Fei in front, and at the last corner of the fourth lap, he planned to overtake with all his might.

But on his left side, that slender but nimble figure chased after him silently.

Meng Yuqiao couldn't help but glanced at Gu Ran out of the corner of her eye. At the moment of high-speed gliding, she only saw his handsome profile and a drop of sweat splashing from his forehead.

At this moment, this picture seemed to freeze in Meng Yuqiao's mind.After a long time, he and Gu Ran became teammates who were willing to sacrifice themselves to help each other, and he would often think of this scene.

So, at this corner, between the second, third and fourth, there was another fierce competition.

In the end, Meng Yuqiao fell to fourth place,

Gu Ran felt that the frequency of his heartbeat had exceeded the limit that his body could bear, but he surpassed Meng Yuqiao, and he completed this surpassing!

With the last corner left in the race, he is now dizzy and out of breath.

He didn't even have the physical strength to think, so he could only slide forward mechanically.

On the final straight, Meng Yuqiao still chased after him. Gu Ran didn't care about him, but instinctively stretched her legs forward desperately, trying to get ahead of the opponent and send the tip of the ice skate across the finish line.

After the game, the results have not yet come out.Gu Ran continued to slide on the ice based on his inertia. At this time, all the feelings that had been ignored just now surged up, and he almost couldn't hold on and fell on the ice.

Chi Lang leaned over from the side, put his arms around his shoulders, and slid him to the sidelines.

In this game, the athletes had multiple physical contacts, and the referee had to watch the video playback repeatedly to determine whether there was a foul.

Gu Ran propped her hands on the crash pad, still panting hard, feeling as if her lungs were about to explode, constantly sucking in air.

He tried his best to control his breathing rate and let his heartbeat slowly calm down.

Chi Lang patted him on the shoulder and said with concern, "Are you all right?"

Gu Ran couldn't speak, so she shook her head slightly as a response.

"You too," Chi Lang couldn't help scolding him, "If you can't do it, don't be brave, and face up to your physical fitness."

Gu Ran raised her head and stared at him, unable to speak, she also mouthed to scold him: "Stupid."

Chi Lang was not angry when he was scolded, but laughed instead: "Yo, I still have the strength to scold people, it seems that it will be no problem to skate the relay at the end."

He didn't mention Gu Ran and almost forgot that there was a men's 5000-meter relay race at the end.

God, didn't this kill him?

"Alas..." Gu Ran sighed silently, no matter what, the relay race can still take a few laps of rest in one and a half laps, gritted her teeth, and can always survive.

The results still hadn't come out. Liu Fei and Ren Yongjie on the side didn't wait any longer. They changed their shoes and walked out along the aisle one after the other.

For them, the result is actually not that important. As members of the National Youth Team, they can directly qualify for the National Short Track Speed ​​Skating Championships without having to work hard.

Besides, there is no suspense in the first and second.They didn't have much physical contact with others, and there was no penalty.

The contacts were mainly between Gu Ran, Chi Lang, and Meng Yuqiao.In that chaotic situation, everyone had physical contact, and in order to maintain balance, the hands moved more or less.No one can tell whether it is a foul or not, and whether the foul is actually him or not, it depends on the referee's decision in the end.

Gu Ran still kept his hands on the crash pad, leaning forward, trying to adjust his breathing and heartbeat.

Chi Lang put a hand on his shoulder and said half-jokingly: "The one who was punished must be you."

"Bah!" Gu Ran asked him: "Why is it me, it's almost you."

Chi Lang laughed badly: "It's you, you touched my thigh."

Gu Ran opened her mouth and almost couldn't spit it out: "Just your leg, if you ask me to touch it, I won't touch it."

Chi Lang immediately stretched out his long legs, straightened up, and the quadriceps muscles were clearly outlined under the tight-fitting jumpsuit: "Quick, come and touch it!"

"Go away."

They were bickering, and on the big screen, the results had already come out.

After careful consideration, the referee did not give any penalty, and all five players scored.

But the final ranking was beyond everyone's expectations.
