Chapter 40: Fiasco
The pent-up uneasiness exploded to the peak, looking at the arrow nailed to the six rings on the target paper, Kong Yixian felt that he was about to collapse.
From the bullseye to the six rings, such a contrast without warning made the audience in an uproar, and even the coaches of other teams hugged their arms and shook their heads, it seems that this Kong Yixian's strength is not very stable, and the good results in the first few games are probably just an occasional extraordinary.
But Chang Yi doesn't think so, who knows better than him what Kong Yixian's ability is.
He reminded Kong Yixian again not to be distracted, but this time, Kong Yixian's expression shocked him.
At a critical moment in this kind of competition, she actually broke down to the point of crying?!
Kong Yixian herself knew that she was embarrassed, but she was just uncomfortable, and the anxiety and panic in her heart could not be resolved, and she didn't even want to look at the target paper.
The bull's-eye that had always calmed her down had become a whirlpool that scared her at the moment, but the more she forced herself to calm down, the more panicked she became.
Although I don't know what happened to Kong Yixian, Lin Nengjin knows that even if she continues like this, she won't have any good results.
"Chang, do you want to quit the race? β
Chang Yi was a little surprised and withdrew......
He has never experienced retirement, neither has Kong Yixian, and he has never thought of retiring even if he strained his arm muscles in the previous game.
Is this time a rare opportunity to be wasted?
Lin Nengjin also knew that Chang Yi was reluctant to retire, but with Kong Yixian's abnormal state, there was really no need to persevere.
In fact, no matter which sport, it is not uncommon for athletes to suddenly appear in poor condition, and experienced players can quickly adjust back to their own state, while the situation like Kong Yixian today is not like an accidental attack, I am afraid it will be difficult to adjust back.
After shooting an eight-ring, Kong Yixian was stopped by Chang Yi, although he didn't want to speak, but he really couldn't bear to let Kong Yixian suffer in front of the track.
"Yixian, retire. β
Kong Yixian heard Chang Yi say this noun to her for the first time, but she also understood what these two words meant, she looked at Chang Yi in disbelief, and then looked at Lin Nengjin on the side.
Lin Nengjin frowned slightly, in his opinion, Kong Yixian really had no need to compare, "Forget it this time, don't put too much pressure on yourself." β
Kong Yixian looked at Chang Yi again, as if to confirm what he meant, but Chang Yi just pursed her lips and nodded halfway, signaling her to retire.
Kong Yixian, who was already in a state of emotional collapse, opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be blocked, her chest rose and fell violently, and she was obviously doing a fierce ideological struggle.
But eventually, she shook her head, and just as the second contestant had finished her move, it was her turn to draw the arrow.
Such insistence may not be meaningful, but she doesn't want to give up, at least ...... At least let her finish the game.
The roar in her head was uncomfortable, and the vision in front of her was a little blurred, she held the bow and aimed for a long time before letting go, the nine rings, barely pulled back a little bit.
Chang Yi saw that her arrow was not bad, and he was willing to let her finish the competition, but Lin Nengjin was still holding his arms, not knowing if she could survive to the end in such a good state.
After playing, Kong Yixian finally didn't collapse too much, but she never shot ten rings, such a bad or bad result made many people who paid attention to her gradually lose interest, and some people were secretly talking about her value.
"I've seen her fights before, and she's played ...... It's very inconsistent, and it often happens in the second half. β
"Maybe it's inexperienced, but every time I compete, the final result is good. β
"Hmm...... That's true, but you see she's in her twenties, she's not in a stable state, and she has to climb up...... Enough choking. β
"Isn't it, after all, it's a halfway monk, and it's still not comparable. I heard that her coach is a person with a bad reputation, what's the way to get it?"
"I don't know, I guess it's just an amateur who doesn't have a good personality, who knows. β
Chang Yi naturally couldn't hear other people's discussions, but Kong Yixian seemed to be quiet, not so much quiet as tired.
It's not that my arms are weak, it's that my heart is tired.
After continuous anxiety and nervousness, she was persuaded by Chang Yi to withdraw from the competition, and she was suddenly as powerless as weightless, and even the play of every arrow was almost broken.
Eventually, the first half ended with her results ......
Ke Ji put down his bow and was finally able to speak to Kong Yixian.
"Eh, I said you're too old to pull a bow. β
Kong Yixian raised her eyes and glared at him, she played abnormally, can she be ridiculed like this.
Before she could go back, Lin Nengjin went on stage to block in front of Kong Yixian, and looked at Ke Ji with a sneer, with a look of disdain, "You are the captain of the city team...... The professionalism is not very good, but also, as a coach who can only stop the city team for many years, I want to know where the level is. β
Coach Wu heard Lin Nengjin's words in the audience, and his face immediately turned pale, "Ke Ji, you come down and rest first, the second half of the province will be as embarrassing as having epilepsy." β
Kong Yixian, who was sarcastic, gritted her teeth, but couldn't find the words to refute it.
Even if you hate them, even if you want to slap your face, you have to have strength, but today's performance is ...... Even she couldn't stand it.
Such an unsightly achievement, what to use to ridicule each other.
She walked off the stage in a dejected manner, closed her eyes and sighed, "What the hell is going on......"
Chang Yi patted her on the back, trying to calm her mood, "It's okay, it's just an occasional malfunction, it's okay......"
Kong Yixian shook her head, but she didn't know how to describe that restless mood, and at this moment, it was different from the nowhere to vent just now, she really felt so tired.
Seeing that she still couldn't calm down, Chang Yi gritted his teeth and hugged her.
During the game, it is normal for a coach to hug an athlete, even if it is the opposite sex. At this time, Kong Yixian was in no mood to think about it, covering her face and hiding in his arms, feeling the short-term warmth.
Lin Nengjin was disgusted by the face of the city team, and he still had some concerns when he stepped down, "Yixian, can you really hold on? If it really doesn't work...... Once in a while, no one will say anything about you. β
Kong Yixian raised her face and looked at Lin Nengjin with some grievance. Lin Nengjin pursed his lips and sighed, "It's better than ...... It's better than being ridiculed for your shots. β
Chang Yi glanced at him, Yixian was already in a bad mood, wouldn't it be even more shocking to her if she said such a thing.
Lin Nengjin had no choice but to shut up, and suddenly had the illusion that Kong Yixian was Lao Chang's biological daughter, and protecting others like this really opened his eyes.
The ten-minute intermission passed quickly, and Chang Yi held Kong Yixian's face and instructed again, "Don't think too much, no one can laugh at you, just compare yourself." β
Kong Yixian, who was empty in his heart, nodded weakly, turned around and walked to the front of the track, and lifted the amazing good bow.
Is she really worthy of such a bow......
But as soon as this idea popped up, she immediately shook her head and dispelled it, the most important thing now is to concentrate on the game, and don't think about anything else.
The brain, cooled by the feeling of powerlessness, shielded the gaze and low coaxing from the surrounding her, at least allowed her to play quietly.
Ke Ji she was facing was also a very annoying guy, paying more attention to her every arrow than anyone else, and I didn't know if I thought he was Kong Yixian's coach.
Forget it, the key is that every time he turned his head to look at Kong Yixian's results, he would turn around and sneer at her.
He is not a foul in this way, so even if the referee feels that it is inappropriate, it is not good to say anything, and Kong Yixian simply ignored him, fortunately, the previous anti-interference training was not practiced in vain, and her performance was not bad throughout the second half.
But even so, it couldn't save her poor performance in the first half, and she ended up in fifth place.
For her unprecedented ranking, many viewers who pay attention to Kong Yixian can't help but sigh, is it another short-lived Zhongyong, after all, he is just a little famous in the city.
Kong Yixian, who had already expected the result, was not too surprised, and walked off the field with a bow weakly, Chang Yi smiled at her, "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, don't care too much." β
Kong Yixian nodded, but she didn't have the strength to listen to his words. The other players also got off the field, and they couldn't help but look at Kong Yixian twice.
In addition to Kong Yixian, who played abnormally, they were also looking at Chang Yi, and some people who knew the details were whispering something, such a scene made Kong Yixian and Chang Yi very uncomfortable.
Lin Nengjin held the two of them one by one, "Why are you here, Yixian, don't be too frustrated, you can still have a fifth place if you played so badly in the first half, what do you let the one at the bottom think." β
Kong Yixian raised her head and wanted to stop him, after experiencing frustration, she really didn't want to hit other people, and it was really boring to laugh at fifty steps and take a hundred steps.
But some people don't have the same consciousness as her.
"Oh, Coach Chang, I haven't seen you for a long time, what have you been busy with lately, and you don't even care about the older young women you focus on cultivating. β
The three of them chose to ignore Coach Wu's cynicism, but Ke Ji was obviously more rampant than his coach, and he shouted at Kong Yixian when he won the first place, "Eh, old aunt, can you still lift the bow in the next competition." I'll just say you're not worthy of the bow. β
Kong Yixian took a deep breath, although she didn't pay attention to it, she still cared about Ke Ji's words.
Chang Yi paid so much for him, and gave her such a jealous bow, but she went to compare it to such a bad result.
Under Ke Ji's coaxing, the huge city team also shouted, but they were soon glared back by Lin Nengjin.
"Oh, you like to come out very much, come and let me remember you, maybe I can still say a few nice words for you when I go back to the provincial team, this honor is given to you, do you want it?"
The other team members were silent, only Ke Ji was fearless, and he was not afraid of being squeezed out by the captain when he entered the provincial team in the future, but choked up, "What's the matter, it's hard to say, what do you think about when you're old, and you still want to be a professional athlete." I didn't see how talented he was, if he was really that powerfulβ"
"It's endless, isn't it?"
The person who interrupted Ke Ji with a roar was Kong Yixian, who almost used up all her strength, and almost attracted the attention of the audience.
