72. Time conflict

Don't look at Wu Zichen who is dying at the moment, looking like he doesn't want to. Who knew that the next morning, Wu Zichen appeared in front of everyone again, so angry that Jiang Shuiyuan's teeth itched!

The next two days of the sports meeting are the most relaxing days for Jiangshuiyuan this semester, you can temporarily put aside the burden of all your schoolwork, devote yourself to this school-wide carnival, run with everyone, shout together, sweat with youth, and bloom the most innocent smile together.

Although Jiang Shuiyuan reported the four events of 4×100m relay, 800m, 3000m and badminton men's doubles, before the official opening of the Games, he had completely said "goodbye" to the badminton court, and because of the conflict in the game time, he automatically gave up the 800m event, so he only needed to participate in two competitions in these two days to be fine. At other times, you can take the cheerleaders in your class to cheer for the players, buy fruits, distribute drinks, do some logistics support work, and sneak to the competition venue in the second and third years of high school, and be an onlooker who does not know the truth from the facts.

Of course, what he liked most was to lie alone on the grassy hillside, watching the light clouds change for no reason in the blue sky, doing nothing, thinking about nothing, just quietly in a daze, letting time slip silently in front of him, on his body, under his feet, and between his fingers. What a pleasant life it is!

It's a pity that at this time, there will always be people who come uninvited and interrupt his thoughts that have finally quieted down, such as Wu Zichen, such as Pu Xiaoxiang, and then the chaos of Tiannan and Haibei will tear Jiang Shuiyuan's thoughts into pieces. Occasionally, Cai Xiaojia would come, but she would only sit more than ten meters away, looking at the clouds in the sky for a while, and looking at the river water source in a daze for a while, and she wouldn't say a word.

As for Liu Chenyu and Liu's squad leader, he decided not to find time to accompany Jiang Shuiyuan in a daze. In Jiang Shuiyuan's impression, whenever there is a sports meeting or any other class group activity, Liu Chenyu, as the class leader, has always been busy from beginning to end: fruit drinks, slogans and banners, etc., will be properly prepared as early as a week before the competition; will take the lead in participating in the competition, and pick the most difficult and unreported items to participate; if there is no competition, she will take the cheerleaders to each arena to cheer for every player in her class; and when the competition is over, she must be the crowd cleaning and sorting out the equipment. In short, she didn't have a time to stop at all.

Sometimes Jiang Shuiyuan thinks that he is also the class leader, and he was appointed by the class teacher completely because of his grades, and he was promoted by the girls by virtue of his appearance, but in fact, there are many people in the class who are not convinced, but there is no way to overturn himself, so he can only acquiesce to the status quo. And Liu Chenyu, who was born to be the material of the class leader, has a strong aura there, not only the girls are convinced, but also the boys, not only the students are assured, but the teachers are also assured. As long as she is there, she will be the class leader!

That's the difference between people!

Although Jiang Shuiyuan could not endure hardships like Liu Chenyu and take the lead everywhere, he also signed up for at least three events, many of which were regarded as challenging problems such as 3,000 meters, which were regarded as daunting by everyone. And with his uninterrupted physical exercise and good reflexes for a year, he has performed well in the men's 4×100m relay and 3000m races, and has won a lot of glory for the senior one (2) class.

The sports meeting is an annual carnival in Huai'an Fuzhong. At the end of the carnival, everyone will face the cold and cruel reality: for the senior high school graduates, it is the college entrance examination for thousands of troops to cross the single-plank bridge; for the second year of high school, it is divided into classes of 369 according to their grades; and for the freshmen who are just familiar with the rhythm of school life, they will usher in a major fork in the road in life: arts and sciences!

Since Sun Yuanqi, the founding father of the country, came to power, although sixty or seventy percent of the members of the National Assembly and cabinet members have science and engineering backgrounds, even the civil service recruitment examination will consciously mix some science knowledge points such as advanced mathematics and quantum mechanics, which seems to deliberately discourage liberal arts students. Coupled with the exemplary role of the political world through the lineage, as well as the promotion of major science and engineering colleges, the concept of "literati make mistakes, science and engineering govern the country" has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people, and "official fathers, rich fathers, it is better to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well", "learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you are not afraid to go all over the world" has also become a well-known slogan.

Take Huai'an Fuzhong as an example, among the 16 classes in each session, no more than 4 classes will choose to study liberal arts in the end. Except for a few subjects such as Chinese, history, law, and philosophy, the others feel that physics, chemistry, etc. are boring like heavenly books, and they can't love and can't keep up with the rhythm of teachers and classmates, and finally can only choose liberal arts that can at least understand what to say.

In any case, there will always be people in every class who choose liberal arts for one reason or another and then part ways with their classmates and friends who have been with them for the school year. Just familiar with the separation, and such a drama will continue to be staged in the next two years, which makes the immature and ignorant teenagers taste the situation of life a little. Therefore, after the sports meeting, the entire Huai'an Fuzhong campus was filled with a faint sadness and shallow melancholy.

In the blink of an eye, in May, the Huai'an Fu Middle School Students' Chinese Studies Difficult Selection Contest entered the final stage.

After outwitting the No. 1 middle school team, the Huai'an Fu squadron played triumphantly all the way and successfully reached the finals. To Jiang Shuiyuan, Chen Di and others, what surprised them was that the opponent they were about to meet in the final was actually an old acquaintance, and the first opponent in the qualifiers, Pingqiao No. 2 Squadron! This women's army was led by Chang Dihua with thin lips all the way to capture the flag, and narrowly escaped several times, but finally had the last laugh and successfully met with the Huai'an Fu Squadron in the final!

The road is narrow!

Jiang Shuiyuan, Chen Di, Fu Shouzhang and others first reacted with this sentence after learning the news. But after so many games, the Huai'an Fu Squadron is not the Wuxia Ameng of the past. Moreover, they have beaten them once before, and the players have a natural psychological advantage. Even Shi Xuan, who has always been pessimistic, was in high spirits at this time: "Fight, fight!!, fight!! since we can defeat them once, we can defeat them a second time! I only hope that after they lose this time, they won't cry like last time!"

Fu Shouzhang was cautiously optimistic: "Although we have defeated her, we have not been careless at all. Why? First, at that time, the debate between the two sides was evenly divided and was in a state of stalemate, and it was only because Minister Jiang and the opposing general's general made a bet that they would win or lose before the final victory was finally decided, and it was a bit of a victory in the first place; second, since the other side was able to pass five hurdles and six to enter the finals, their strength should definitely not be underestimated; third, they would definitely regard the defeat in the first battle and crying on the spot as a great shame in their lives, and everyone from top to bottom was holding their breath in their hearts.

No matter what Fu Shouzhang and Zeng Ping thought of Jiang Shuiyuan before, after so many games, they still recognized this young general, who was far above them in terms of both the breadth of knowledge of Chinese culture and the superb argumentation skills. And practice has also proved that at a critical time, it is still necessary for this junior brother to be able to turn the tide.

Jiang Shuiyuan nodded when he heard this: "Senior Brother Fu is right! The proud soldiers will be defeated and the mourning soldiers will be victorious, this is the truth proved by countless examples throughout the ages. None of us has any reason to be proud or arrogant until the final victory comes! No matter whether the enemy is strong or weak, new or old, we must be 12 percent cautious and be 100 percent prepared. In the finals, I still have the same old saying, the brave wins when you meet in a narrow way!"

"The ancients had a cloud: Farewell for three days, you should be impressed. After three days of separation, we still have to be impressed, not to mention that more than two months have passed since the original competition? Do you think that the Pingqiao No. 2 Squadron will be as fragile and vulnerable as it was then? Wrong! Big mistake! I might as well tell you the truth, every time we play after entering the knockout round, the Pingqiao No. 2 Squadron will go to the scene to observe as long as it is free. So to speak, they know everything about our moves and routines, and how much do we know about them? In my opinion, many of them are still at the same level as they were two months ago!" Chen Di added.

Shi Xuan suddenly blushed.

According to the arrangement of the organizing committee, the final of the Chinese Studies Difficult Selection Contest was held on the morning of the second Saturday in May. Before she could open her mouth, Fang Dongmei took the lead in announcing: "I have just received the latest notice that the singing competition will be held at the Provincial Culture and Arts Center next Saturday morning, and all the cultural celebrities in the province will attend. I hope you will adjust well in the past few days, and strive to appear on the stage of the competition in the most perfect condition, and win the championship. Questions?"

Of course there is a problem!

On the morning of the same day, a singing contest for middle school students in the whole province and a final round of the contest for the difficult selection of Chinese studies in the whole province had already made Jiang Shuiyuan feel that he was lacking in skills. The key competition venues are also one in the Provincial Culture and Art Center and the other in the Hall of the Provincial Museum of Culture and History, which are three or four kilometers apart.

What is the auspicious day of the zodiac on the second Saturday of May, and why are the games held on that morning?

Jiang Shuiyuan sighed in his heart, and raised his left hand with Fang Dongmei's threatening eyes tremblingly: "Teacher, I have a problem!"
