Chapter 488: The Contest Begins
Wearing sunglasses is like putting on a protective shield, which makes me feel clean, the shining lights do not shine on my eyes, the crowd no longer dazzles me, and even, those loud voices can no longer pierce my ears, I only feel isolated from the world.
With this unique purity, I walked straight through the crowd and towards the door of the boxing gym.
It's an instinct of mine to keep a low profile, and while the crowd is talking about me, I don't want them to know that the main character of their discussion is right next to them.
However, sometimes, you can't be low-key if you want to, many of these people who come here know me Xu Can, or rather, there are many people who already know what I look like, so I squeezed into the crowd, and I was recognized at once, and in the noisy air, a scream suddenly broke out: "Xu Can is here!"
It was a girl's scream, loud and high-pitched, piercing the air, piercing through the hustle and bustle, and reaching the ears of many people.
Suddenly, countless eyes shot at me, an invisible chain effect spread, more and more eyes focused on me, screams overshadowed wave after wave, some people were crazy and some shouted, some people took pictures and some people squeezed towards me.
This moment. It was as if I had become a sought-after star, dazzling and glamorous.
It's just that now I am different from the second-generation Xu Can of the rich in the past, I now have another layer of mysterious identity, the son of Liu Longyin, this identity has covered me with a mysterious veil, I don't need to be publicized anymore, mysterious, low-key, is my ultimate true color.
I didn't look around, I just walked straight ahead, as if everything had nothing to do with me.
On the other hand, Uncle Tie and Uncle Ying did their duty, broke through the crazy crowd for me, and opened the way for me.
In the midst of the stars holding the moon, I came to the gate of the Hongwu Boxing Gym, where there were a number of security guards to maintain order, and a group of guards specially checked the spectators who entered with tickets.
I don't have a ticket, but my identity is a pass, and at the entrance of the check, I indifferently took off my sunglasses and took out my ID card.
As soon as the ID was revealed, the man in the suit who took the lead respectfully welcomed me into the boxing gym.
Uncle Tie and Uncle Ying, as my personal bodyguards, were of course also eligible to enter, but they were only welcomed into the audience. As for me, I took the VIP passage and went straight to the gym lounge.
When I arrived at the lounge, I was arranged to do some simple pre-match preparations, and the staff also prepared a black robe for me, this kind of clothing is specially prepared for the boxing gym competition personnel, wearing it on the body is domineering and mighty, and it is convenient to fight, but I did not wear it, for masters at my level, the clothes have not played an obstructive role, as long as they are not too thick, if they deliberately put on the robes, they will make me feel bad, or their own clothes are simple and casual.
After a little preparation, the time is almost up. Without further delay, I walked straight out of the lounge and walked leisurely towards the arena. ad_250_left();
Soon, I was in the middle of the track.
The moment I appeared, the audience immediately boiled violently like a boiling spicy pot, and all kinds of cheers and screams shook in this huge venue.
Of course, the sound of these ghosts roaring and screaming is only made by some young children, and those who are older are obviously much calmer, not to mention, these people are not ordinary people, they all have a certain identity and status, this height, so that they maintain a corresponding attitude, naturally they will not go crazy at will, will not easily show exaggerated expressions and movements, and will not yell and scream.
To be honest, this Hongwu boxing gym is indeed a large boxing gym, the building is very grand, especially this boxing scene, covering an area of very wide, the zenith is very high, the central ring is also magnificent, and the audience seats around are even more numerous, but even so, the whole audience is still full, and every seat is seated. Overcrowded.
Moreover, the people who can get tickets are all extraordinary people, either rich or expensive, white magnates, underworld tycoons, business giants, everything, many of them have been on TV, they are all interested in watching the game, but, don't think about it, many of them are selling the face of the Chu family.
As for me, there are also some die-hard fans, the most distinctive ones are Lu Feng and Zhou Xin under me.
At this moment, the two of them are sitting in the corner at the very edge, this is the worst seat, but it is also the ticket that Lu Feng got with great effort, they are on the periphery of the audience, but their cheering voice is the loudest, almost didn't break their throats, in order to cheer for me, it can be said that they almost gave up their lives, I feel that the atmosphere of the scene was ignited by the two of them.
In addition to the two of them, my other popular figure is Fengchen, of course, Fengchen is different from Lu Feng Zhou Xin, he is also a gang boss, with his identity and status, he will not scream and shout like the two of them, he will not do anything that is out of his identity, and more importantly, his relationship with me is still in a hidden state, no one knows, so he didn't show anything, just nodded at me when I looked at him.
In addition, in the VIP audience seats near the ring, there are also many familiar faces, most of these special seats are occupied by the people of the Hong Gang, after all, this is the territory of the Hong Gang, and almost all the big men of the Hong Gang appear in this VIP seat.
Among them, sitting in the VIP main seat, it is Xia Gang Leader and Xia Xiaoxiao, Xia Xiaoxiao is the heroine today, naturally she is treated differently, and it can be regarded as the focus of the audience, the moment she saw me appear, her look became different, but because her father was on the side, she was not good at doing anything, just using her eyes to constantly convey emotions to me.
It's just that up to now, her eyes are still very complicated, all kinds of colors are intertwined, among which the color of worry is the worst, no matter how hard she tries to encourage me, believe me, in the end. She is still worried about me, her confidence is very weak, so weak that she is wavering, which shows that she has no confidence in me at all, but she expects me to win so much, this contradiction makes her too nervous and too worried.
Seeing her like this, I couldn't help but grin at her and smile at her, my expression was very calm, indicating my mentality, and it was also a comfort to her.
But, to my surprise, after I swept Xia Xiaoxiao, I saw a familiar person again.
The audience in the audience, no matter how awesome the characters appeared, I was not surprised, however, when I swept the ponytail on the VIP seat, I still felt shocked, completely shocked, ponytail, she is the least like this kind of lively occasion, especially in a noisy place like a boxing gym, her physical condition, is not suitable for this kind of place, but she still appeared in a low-key manner.
Although, she wore a baseball cap on her head, and half of her face was in the shadows, but I still spotted her at a glance, she came here desperately, obviously because she was too worried about my safety, in the ponytail's opinion, once I lost, it was very likely that I would die here, maybe it was because of this that she appeared, for her affection, I don't know how to respond, but my heart is inexplicably warm.
I didn't stop at her, I quietly looked away, as if I didn't see her, and then, I looked elsewhere, my steps didn't stop, shuttling on the track, my eyes wandered, my eyes were like scanners, constantly scanning the boiling crowd. Glancing at the faces inside.
On the way here, I have actually adjusted my mentality to the best, and I have seen a lot of things, and I have also dealt with the upcoming competition with a normal mentality, and I can be pampered and not surprised.
It's just that when I am really immersed in it, especially, when I walk to the ring and condescendingly feel the strong and exciting atmosphere of the scene, my heart still can't help but surge, this is the natural tumbling of blood in the body, and I can't control it.
I finally understand why so many people like to fight boxing, and so many people like to watch boxing, in the final analysis, it is because of the atmosphere of this scene, it can completely ignite the blood in the human body, and make you feel unprecedented excitement and surging.
Just when my beast's blood was boiling, the audience suddenly made an uproar, and in an instant, the screams became louder and denser, like a bombardment cannon.
This sudden movement made me suddenly come back to my senses, and my gaze couldn't help but follow the eyes of the whole audience and shot towards the entrance of the track, and I realized that it was Chu Jie who appeared.
His arrival set off a huge wave at the scene, the boiling crowd became more and more boiling, and the noisy scene became even more noisy. Obviously, his influence is much greater than mine, I can only set off a small wave, but he can bring Da Gao chao, I am alone in the ring, behind him, but almost with a group, there are more than a dozen heavyweights following him, which invisibly, adds infinite domineering to him.
When he came to the ring, he didn't go directly to the ring, but walked to Xia Xiaoxiao, who was the VIP seat.
Today's Chu Jie is dressed very decently, obviously after a careful dress, he looks more handsome and elegant than me, which gives me the feeling that he doesn't care about the game at all, he is not here to compete, but to pretend to be cool, he also holds a bouquet of gorgeous red roses in his hand, which is quite eye-catching, for this reason, people's screams are even worse, and there are many nympho girls who can't help but call his name.
Chu Jie's influence, in high society, is indeed unusually loud, but for this kind of scene, Chu Jie seems to be commonplace, and he doesn't care at all, this moment. In his eyes, there was only one person, and that was Xia Xiaoxiao, his gaze stared at Xia Xiaoxiao with infinite tenderness, and his steps were firmly approaching her.
As soon as he came to Xia Xiaoxiao, Chu Jie immediately handed the roses to Xia Xiaoxiao in a very handsome posture, and said softly: "Xiaoxiao, happy birthday!"
Chu Jie's voice, extremely magnetic and courageous, was able to penetrate such a thick hustle and bustle, and miraculously came into my ears.
Hearing his words, I suddenly remembered that today is Xia Xiaoxiao's birthday, it is precisely because of this that Xia Gang Master set the competition today, I really didn't expect that Chu Jie was so hearted, he actually put Xia Xiaoxiao's birthday in the first place, and I, I regarded the competition as the first priority, and forgot about Xia Xiaoxiao's birthday, this point, it really made me feel ashamed of myself, and I faintly felt guilty in my heart, I was ashamed of Xia Xiaoxiao's deep love, she only had me in her heart, and I was in my heart...
Involuntarily, I set my eyes on Xia Xiaoxiao, her at this moment. Her expression was very entangled, it was obvious that she didn't want to accept Chu Jie's intentions, but in front of the audience and her father, she couldn't refuse Chu Jie, and in desperation, she had to turn her helpless eyes to me.
It stands to reason that Xia Xiaoxiao and I are boyfriend and girlfriend, but my performance today is not as good as Chu Jie, he behaves more like a boyfriend, it can also be said that he has the ticket to win today's competition, and he is also determined to win Xia Xiaoxiao.
Chu Jie's self-confidence and high-profile really made me very unhappy, how to say it today is also a fair competition between the two of us, but he did such a thing before the competition, perhaps, he really has a heart for Xia Xiaoxiao, but at the same time, this is also a way for him to show off, he is showing off his self-confidence, so that I lose to him in confidence, I can't show weakness, and I can't watch Xia Xiaoxiao fall into embarrassment.
Therefore, when Xia Xiaoxiao threw me a look of help, I immediately jumped down from the ring in a domineering posture, and then went straight to Xia Xiaoxiao.
On the way to her, I picked off a fake flower used for decoration next to the audience seat, and then went straight to the other side of Xia Xiaoxiao's seat, and I handed the small fake flower in my hand to Xia Xiaoxiao without hesitation. And said with affection: "Xiaoxiao, happy birthday!"
Chu Jie and I did the same thing, said the same thing, and the discerning person knew at a glance that before we fought martial arts, we were fighting spirit, and before the game started, we had a silent contest, but in this contest, in the end, I took the advantage, because Xia Xiaoxiao's heart was on my side.
She hesitated to take the large bouquet of roses that Chu Jie handed over, however, for the fake flower I handed over, she immediately reached out and took it. And showed a happy smile, smiling like a flower.
In Xia Xiaoxiao's eyes, the fake flowers I picked casually were much more precious and beautiful than the bright roses carefully prepared by Chu Jie, and after she took the flowers, she replied to me gently: "Thank you!"
Xia Xiaoxiao's actions were like a loud slap, slapped Chu Jie's face heavily, and the audience present couldn't help but be dumbfounded when they saw this scene, many people were optimistic about Chu Jie, but they didn't expect that the result of the competition was undecided, but Xia Xiaoxiao's own mind was determined first. The implication of this is self-evident.
Of course, Chu Jie, the eldest and youngest of the Chu family, is most proficient in disguise, his heart is also extremely strong, and his endurance is not to mention, although Xia Xiaoxiao's actions made him fall into embarrassment and made him lose face in front of so many, but he didn't get angry, let alone burst out impulsively, he just showed an embarrassed smile, and then took back the rose and handed it to the person behind him.
Many of the people who came with Chu Jie this time were heavyweights, and it was estimated that they were also very powerful in the Chu family, they saw Xia Xiaoxiao so unreasonable, and they obviously showed displeasure, and even, some people wanted to step forward and say something, but they were stopped by Chu Jie.
At this moment, Chu Jie only focused the anger in his heart on me, and said to me lightly: "The game is about to start, see you on stage!"
After speaking, he walked straight to the ring, and his movements were still so free and easy.
His anger is hidden invisibly, and on the surface, he can always be calm, calm, and confident. But I know that his heart is already full of anger, and his indifferent words are enough to show that he will burn all the flames on my body, and the ring is the place where he burns me, and the competition is the way he burns me.
With Chu Jie's departure, the group of heavyweights behind him also left one after another, sitting in their exclusive seats.
And, the Xia gang leader next to Xia Xiaoxiao, his face was also cloudy at this time, and he did not show obvious anger at Xia Xiaoxiao's actions. But his gloomy color revealed the displeasure in his heart, and his heart must be full of dark clouds.
Xia Xiaoxiao didn't care about the Xia gang leader, but the happy smile on her face had faded, and there was only worry left in her eyes, just now Chu Jie put down a cold sentence, Xia Xiaoxiao must have heard the murderous intent inside, so she was scared, panicked, and couldn't help it, so she whispered to me: "Xu Can, be careful!"
I smiled slightly, my expression was free, and I said in a bold tone: "Hmm." Wait for me here, after the fight, I'll spend a good birthday with you!"
As soon as the words fell, I turned around directly and strode to the ring.
After the invisible battle between me and Chu Jie, the atmosphere of the scene has obviously changed, becoming more lively and noisy, especially the looks of everyone in the field, becoming more and more colorful, they read the story behind this ring competition from the incident just now, many people have guessed that Xia Xiaoxiao and I are Lang has a concubine, but Chu Jie's identity is extraordinary, and he and Xia Xiaoxiao have an engagement contract first, that is, our love triangle. There is a fierce secret battle hidden in the faint background.
The entanglement of feelings will make people's emotions extreme, and the love between me and Xia Xiaoxiao must have stimulated Chu Jie. The audience in the field, even if they didn't see the change in Chu Jie's expression, they must have felt Chu Jie's invisible anger, that is to say, this competition will be more exciting than they imagined, of course, they will become more expectant, and the atmosphere in the field will become more and more boiling.
In a fiery atmosphere, I stepped into the ring and stood opposite Chu Jie on the stage.
A moment later, the referee came on, and he came. I introduced Chu Jie and me as the two contestants, although we both knew the identities of the two of us, but, when the referee added some adjectives, it sounded passionate, and invisibly covered us with a stronger brilliance.
After a wonderful introduction, immediately after, he roughly said the rules of the game, the rules are very good, point to stop, in fact, it is at all, in the ring of this underground boxing gym, many people have died, and they have been fooled by accident, and the field of the Hong Gang will not be checked by ordinary people. Therefore, those rules are just listened to and cannot be enforced.
It seemed that after a long time, the referee's nonsense was finally finished, and then, he consciously withdrew from the ring, leaving me and Chu Jie to stand on it.
Up to now, the two of us still maintain a posture opposite each other, with indifferent expressions, even if the two of us hate each other in our hearts, but our identity is not ordinary, we will not show our emotions on our faces at will, especially Chu Jie, this hypocrite, even reached out gentlemanly and shook hands with me in a friendly manner.
I couldn't shirk it, I could only hold it together, at this time, Chu Jie took the opportunity to put his mouth to my ear and said softly: "Xu Can, you can make headlines tomorrow, but unfortunately you can't see it, don't blame me, it's all your own fault!"
Sure enough, Chu Jie really moved on with killing intent towards me, and before the duel began, he directly announced my death sentence, his self-confidence, and his killing intent were all reflected in this sentence.
When I heard his words, my expression was still as calm as water, and my eyes were. But it became firm and unruly, I glanced at him slightly with my peripheral vision, and then, sonorously: "Don't talk nonsense, let the horse come!"
The moment my words fell, the two of us let go of each other's hands almost at the same time, and then, we each took a few steps back, leaving a safe space.
Our figures, standing proudly in the ring, our eyes, looking directly at each other, our faces, cold and ruthless, like two statues.
The atmosphere of the scene also slowly fell silent with the silence of the two of us, no one screamed anymore, no one shouted anymore, no one made a little noise anymore, and the huge boxing stadium was only infinitely lonely.
Everyone's expressions seemed to freeze, staring intently at me and Chu Jie in the ring, at this moment, everything was silent.
Suddenly, a voice broke the silence and exploded in the air.
It was the horn above the ring, and four words burst out: "The competition begins!"
