Li Yuchen and I didn't say a word, but also helped move things together.

Opening a grain and oil store is a small business, and you can't make much money, especially in the slag area, and you lose some goods from time to time.

I saw Xie Kai's father in the house, a very gentle middle-aged uncle, always with a smile on his face, taking the initiative to pour us water, thanking us and the like, never leaving his mouth.

After finishing the work, we sat in front of the small shop, and Li Yuchen explained his intentions.

After hearing this, Xie Kai showed an embarrassed and a little scared expression, and said, "I, can I do it?" The last time I fought was in the sixth grade of elementary school, and other than that, I was beaten by others, will it hold you back!"

Li Yuchen smiled gently, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Armor, we grew up peeing and mud since childhood, you have a kind personality, I know, but when you were a freshman, Yuan Kaiyu and his group rode on your head to pee, so that you couldn't hold your head up and be a man, and made your classmates laugh shamefully, we are all gentlemen, we can't be people with our tails between our legs, my brother Ye Fan, you should have heard of it, right?" A month ago, he was just like you, but a month later, he will do his best to kill Yuan Kaiyu, this is his chance to make a name for himself, and it is also an opportunity for you to raise your head again as a man. ”

I played the role of an observer, but I was surprised by these words, riding on the head to pee, how insulting is that?

Xie Kai used to study physical education, when he was in high school, the shot put won a prize in the province, and he got into our school with extra points in the college entrance examination.

Xie Kai's family is not in good condition, and they are all honest people, he didn't tell his family about this, and later quit the school's sports team in order to avoid trouble.

"The day after tomorrow, five o'clock in the afternoon, right? Then, let me think about it, I need time to think about it!" Xie Kai lowered his head in shame.

This kind of thing can't be forced, Li Yuchen persuaded a few more words, and then got up to leave.

Before leaving, I turned my head to look at Xie Kai and said: "Armor, people live for a lifetime, three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work, no one is born to be pressed by others, the physical pain does not matter, the trauma of the soul is the most deadly, before, I was the same as you, but now, I want to live my own life, I can do it, I believe you can do it too." ”

Xie Kai nodded dumbly, we walked far away, and he waved goodbye to us at the door of the store.

In a few hours, we found two people, but instead of giving us a little hope, we were exhausted and in pain.

"Maybe two days later, only the two of us will face Yuan Gou's artillery fire!" Li Yuchen said with a bitter smile.

"Hehe, this time, if we don't get sent to the hospital, even if we win!" I said jokingly.

Li Yuchen's fist hit me in the chest, and I wrapped my hand around his shoulder, a common movement between brothers, as if there was some kind of magic, swept away the loss in our hearts.

We walked side by side on the dark and damp streets of the slag district, and saw the sunset about to fall in the distance, radiating a golden dawn, so dazzling.

"Years and months turn possession into loss, and tired eyes carry expectation!"

Li Yuchen suddenly hummed a familiar tune, "Glorious Years" by the band Beyongd, his favorite song.

I held my head high and shouted to his rhythm: "Today there is only a remnant of the body, welcome the glorious years, and hold on to the ...... of freedom in the wind and rain."

Music is a cry from the soul, and at this moment, it gives us a certain emotion that is most lacking.

"After a lifetime of hesitant struggles, self-confidence can change the future, who can do it?"

We sang loudly, attracting the eyes of passers-by, but we never tired of it.

After a lifetime of hesitant struggle, self-confidence can change the future!

Aren't the people and things written in the words exactly who we are now?

Speaking more, the meaning of the beyond band translated into Chinese is: transcendence.

At night, I stayed at Li Yuchen's house, don't think crookedly, of course I slept in the living room with Li Yuchen, and Yuyi slept in the bedroom by himself.

She made us a late-night snack, and I cherished the rare warm moment, because I didn't know if the sun would rise as usual in two days.

The next day, the last day of the Games, finally arrived.

After two days of competition, both the contestants and the spectators were already very tired, and the atmosphere was not as high as before after the whole day.

But when it came to the last event, the atmosphere in the stadium was more solemn than ever.

The men's 5,000-meter run is about to begin.

This event will be used as the finale of the Games every year, testing the persistence of human nature and physical endurance, and is the most difficult and high-profile event.

Especially this year, Su Zichen, known as the emperor of long-distance running in Liao, is about to graduate.

He has won the 5000m championship for three consecutive years in four years of college, and if he can win this year, he will set a new record for the long-distance running of Liaoning University and draw a perfect end to his college career.

"Su Zichen can be called a legend of Liao University, and his prestige is very high in his junior and senior years, although he is not the boss of the school, but even if he is the king of the school, he has to give him three points, so this year's contestants are all competing with the idea of competing for the second, because there is no suspense about the first. ”

Li Yuchen introduced Su Zichen's background to me.

To sum it up, it can be summed up in one sentence: the family background is strong, talents are rare, and the rich and handsome worthy of the name are veritable.

"Brother Fan, I know that your strength is not bad, but in the 5000-meter project, Su Zichen's strength can only be described as terrifying, so you should also pay attention to this when you run, and you can keep the second place!"

Hearing him say this, I really don't have the idea of competing with Su Zichen for the first place.

After all, people haven't offended me, so why should they add such a disgraceful stroke to his perfect college career?

But people are not as good as heaven, and the next thing happened that forced me to play the role of this contender.

Before the start of the competition, athletes need to check in at the check-in office and do warm-up exercises to prevent accidents such as body cramps during the competition.

I was on the sidelines when suddenly a couple of strange boys surrounded me.

"Ye Fan, right?" the leading boy called out my name with an unkind face.

I nodded vigilantly, and he put his hand on my shoulder without seeing anything and said, "Come, let's talk outside." ”

From the appearance to the tone of speech, they are not laymen, they are generally good at school, and they all have a madness in their bones, and there is a kind of heaven and earth, Lao Tzu's biggest feeling, they are.

Around the corner outside the stadium, the boy lit a cigarette, didn't mean to hand it to me, smoked it himself, and said, "Don't be afraid, we didn't mean to move you, I came today, someone dragged me to bring you a message." ”

"I heard that you are going to fight the storm tomorrow? Hehe, he is a little grasshopper in the sophomore year, and there is nothing to be afraid of, but there is a big backer behind him, you may have heard of it, Brother Xiang of the junior, Li Xiang, after our seniors are gone, he may become the new overlord of the school, Yuan Kaiyu's matter, Li Xiang will come forward to help, so no matter if you win or lose, offend Brother Xiang's people, don't want to mess around at school!"

Niu B coaxed him when he spoke, but he was not afraid of his jokes, what Brother Xiang, I really haven't heard of it, I didn't even ask the school about the rights and wrongs before, and it was useless for him to be in front of me.

At this time, the sound of the referee urging the players to take place sounded in the sports field.

I didn't have time to ink with these guys, and said, "Friend, if you came to reason with me, then I thank you, if you came to threaten me, I don't think there's any need for this, the game is about to start, I have to go in first." ”

The man smiled, intentionally or unintentionally blew a puff of second-hand smoke on my face, grabbed my arm, and said, "I haven't finished my words yet, why are you in a hurry?"

"Today's 5000 meters, if you can win the championship, you and Yuan Kaiyu's Liangzi someone will come forward to help you settle the level, to ensure that he will never dare to provoke you again, and if you can't do it, hehe, the result of tomorrow's appointment, there will be no suspense!

He patted me on the shoulder, turned around and walked away with a few people.

My mind fluctuated, and I couldn't guess the identities of these people.

Seeing that they were going to go away, I hurriedly ran over and asked: "Friend, how do I know if you have the strength to fulfill the promise you made just now after winning the championship, 5000 meters is not a joke, if you want to compete with a player like Su Zichen, you have to fight hard!"

The boy slurred his lips a little impatiently, and sneered: "It doesn't do us a dime good for you to win this championship, our boss just doesn't want to see the person you just said by name win the championship, you know what I mean, right? You can go to the school to inquire, what level of characters are the people who have a grudge against the kid surnamed Su, after inquiring clearly, you will know if we have the strength to help you settle the trouble of a small role like Yuan Kaiyu!"

A few people smiled disdainfully, the contempt that came from the confidence in their hearts.

I looked at their distant backs, pondered for a moment, and finally took a deep breath and walked briskly into the stadium.

At this time, the other runners were ready, and more than 30 people lined up on the track in turn.

The moment I stood on the starting line, there was quite a stir on the scene, but it wasn't all because of me.

"Look, look, 100 meters and 1,500 pairs of kings, about to compete against the long-distance running emperor Su Zichen, it's so exciting, this 5000-meter run is definitely the most exciting climax of this Games. ”

"Alas, I still like Ye Fan a lot, but Su Zichen is my idol, and I want to see him win the championship for the fourth time in a row and break the school record. ”

"That's right, after all, Ye Fan is the rising star of this Games, and Su Zichen is the legend of Liaoda, the title of the Emperor of Long-distance Running, it is definitely not covered, Emperor Su come on!"

I was standing at the outermost point, closer to the audience, and I could hear their discussions.

In the past two days, I am used to the feeling of being held high as a hero, and I feel a little lost when I hear that they value Su Zichen more.

I looked to the left-hand side, and I saw a handsome guy in the innermost row, wearing a golden sweatshirt and a white headband, doing warm-up exercises very seriously.

He seemed to notice my gaze, turned his head in surprise, and after being slightly stunned, he nodded politely to me and made a cheering lip shape.

To be honest, at the first glance of him, I understood why his popularity was so high, especially many girls, holding propaganda slogans in their hands, shouting his name, and simply worshipping him like crazy.

Because Su Zichen is indeed too handsome, tall, fair-skinned, with sharp edges on his face, and a pair of eyes like bright stars.

It is said that the eyes are the windows of the human soul, and his eyes are quite pure among men.

Elegant and not pretentious, it is completely from a family background, and it is a good habit that penetrates into the bones.

He's arguably the strongest competitor I've ever faced in the Games, and the outcome of this game is crucial, so I'm going to win anyway.

As the referee's starting pistol was raised, all the players were ready to go.
