On Saturday afternoon, the Lizhong basketball team boarded the high-speed train to Xi'an for their final expedition before the national competition.

Gao Jing disagrees with this competition for a reason, not to mention anything else, from Licheng to Xi'an, it takes at least five hours to take the high-speed rail, and after arriving, you have to transfer to the hotel, all the way to the boat, get up the next day to compete, and take a five-hour train back to Licheng in the evening, and get up early to go to class on Monday, the itinerary is too tight, and the physical strength and energy of the young players are a great loss.

Gao Jing knew in her heart that Lao Zhu, this guy, must have received benefits. The invitational tournament is different from the challenge tournament, the challenge is a commercial competition, there is a prize pool, and you can get a prize money for winning the game; the invitational tournament is a warm-up tournament, and the team has no income, but sometimes in order to warm up with some strong teams, the school will be given some financial compensation, which is also an unspoken rule in the circle.

Not to mention anything else, the round-trip high-speed rail tickets and accommodation fees are tens of thousands of yuan, and it is still necessary to pay a lot of price for inviting Lizhong to Xi'an to play the game.

Although I was not happy in my heart and felt that this game should not be played, but since I got on the train, Gao Jing didn't think much about this problem, and turned to thinking about whether she could use this game to get some gains.

In any case, Xi'an High-tech is indeed a well-known strong team in the country, and its talent is notoriously good.

But more than half a year has passed, and at this time, Gao Jing feels that Lizhong can wrestle with Xi'an High-tech, which is a touchstone for Lizhong before the national competition, try how many catties they have and how much gap they have with the top teams in the country.

And Gao Jing still has a thought, that is, to see how far Lu Yuan's kid has progressed.

In the past week, Lu Yuan has participated in the team's training, and he can obviously feel that he has not only grown taller, but has improved in all aspects. In the past, because the contact with basketball was too short, some bad problems were formed, and they were basically invisible, and the body became very strong, and the ability to fight was greatly enhanced.

Gao Jing organized one or two confrontation matches in the team, Lu Yuan played a light weight, almost no one could stop one-on-one, and sometimes there was no two-person pinch, and at the same time, this guy didn't seem to be doing his best at all.

Tomorrow and Xi'an High-tech will fight, and then you will be able to see how this kid's level is.

Gao Jing thought in his heart, and looked at Lu Yuan, who was sitting next to him-Lu Yuan, who returned to Lizhong, still had such special treatment, and now this kid was sitting in his position, putting down the small table in the front seat, and writing his homework with his head down.

Lu Yuan is a lot taller, close to 190, and the high-speed rail seats are relatively crowded, he is nested there, looking very awkward, but he is still very serious, because compared with the competition, Lu Yuan is more concerned about the final exam now.

"Coach Gao, look at it, how to solve this problem? I have been reading it for a long time, but I have no idea. ”

Lu Yuan suddenly took the homework book and handed it to Gao Jing and asked her a math problem. Gao Jing took a look, this topic is to know her, she doesn't know this topic, how many years have she graduated from high school, where will these things be.

Gao Jing shook his head and said, "If I want to go, where will I go." “

When Lu Yuan heard this, he showed a disappointed expression on his face and said, "Don't you all say that mathematics is taught by physical education teachers, why can't you, a physical education teacher?" “

Gao Jing didn't bother to pay attention to this kid, but asked, "Hey Lu Yuan, let me ask you, have you met any particularly powerful people in the United States?"

As soon as Lu Yuan heard this question, he stopped asking the question, and began to brag to Gao Jing, saying that he had met a powerful basketball player in the United States.

The most awesome is of course Kobe, but that is the version of him who has been retired for many years and has a bigger belly, as well as Blake James, and various masters from other high schools in California.

Since Lu Yuan made a big show at the Poly Arena and led Wilson to defeat Oak Hill High School by more than 50 points in a single game, the giants of California are gearing up to compete with Wilson High School.

As a result, Wilson High School was beaten back to the prototype at once, and Lu Yuan's performance was still excellent, but he could no longer be as crazy as he was against Oak Hill High School, and Wilson still lost more and won less.

Lu Yuan had the opportunity to play against many California masters, which not only enriched his game experience, but also learned a lot from his opponents.

After listening to this, Gao Jing asked Lu Yuan another question: "Do you think who is the most powerful among so many high school players you have met?"

Lu Yuan thought about it, and felt that the most powerful person was actually Blake James, although he defeated him in the game, but in the private confrontation between the two later, Blake showed excellent ability in many aspects, which was indeed difficult for Lu Yuan to match in a short period of time.

So, Lu Yuan said: "It should be a person named Blake James, he is LeBron James's youngest son! It's really amazing, I can't beat him alone, his breakthrough steps are really, fast for a while and slow for a while, I can't find the rhythm, like a crab." “

Gao Jing listened to Lu Yuan's description and knew that Blake James must have beaten Lu Yuan's time difference, and this description was really speechless.

At the mention of Blake, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered one more thing, so he asked Gao Jing mysteriously: "Coach Gao, who is the best high school player in China?"

Gao Jing glanced at Lu Yuan and didn't answer him this question, although she had the answer in her heart, she didn't want to discuss this issue with Lu Yuan, once a player was entangled in who was the strongest, it would not be a good thing for him.

However, Gao Jing misunderstood Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan asked this question not because he wanted to be the strongest player, but because when he was playing with Blake in the United States, Blake and Lu Yuan told a story.

When Blake was in eighth grade, the second year of Chinese junior high school, he went to San Francisco one summer vacation to attend a basketball camp, and in that year, Blake also met a player from China.

The player had only been in training camp for one afternoon and hadn't been seen since, but that afternoon, Blake was very impressed with him.

Because for the first time, Blake discovered that a player from China could be so strong, and in the confrontation match, the Chinese player led his teammates to kill all sides, beating Blake's team to pieces.

At that time, Blake didn't care too much about who this person was because he was still young, and when he met Lu Yuan, he remembered that there was such a powerful person, and wanted to ask Lu Yuan if he knew him.

Where will Lu Yuan, a nerd, know, he has only been playing basketball for a few months, and he can't figure out what strong teams there are in the country, of course he won't know.

Blake just said that this person plays center, hook is very powerful, almost no one can defend, and is unique among many new American centers who focus on defense and can shoot three-pointers.

After mentioning this person, Lu Yuan remembered it in his heart, and today Gao Jing asked about the United States, and Lu Yuan thought about it again. He thought that this person was so powerful in the United States, and if he returned to China, he would definitely be the strongest person in the country, so he asked.

As a result, Lu Yuan saw that Gao Jing ignored him, and thought that he would better ask Bai Ye in the future, this physical education teacher didn't know anything, so he continued to do his homework.

……………………

In Xi'an, night has fallen, and the lights on the ancient city wall are shining, reflecting the brilliance of this thousand-year-old capital.

However, in the old railway station in Weiyang District, Xi'an, it is crowded and a little messy, and the railway station has always been a mixed place, and anyone who comes must play with the spirit of 12 points.

Taxis stop near the station, waiting for the departing guests. However, not all passengers are welcome, and some short-distance guests, taxi drivers feel that they are too disadvantaged to carry passengers, but continue to wait for long-distance guests.

There is a car in a good location on the side of the road, but the driver has turned away several customers in a row, all of whom are afraid that the place they went to is too close to the train station and makes too little money, so they would rather turn off the engine and continue to wait here.

The driver was waiting in the car and yawned a little, thinking that if a slightly nice guest came, he would go straight away, and he didn't wait.

At this time, someone knocked on the window, only to see a young man carrying a big bag, bowing his head and asking if he was leaving, the driver asked where to go, and the young man said: "Go to the middle school of the high-tech zone." ”

When the driver heard that the job was not bad, he was outside the South Third Ring Road, and the distance was quite far, so he agreed to set off, so the man sat in the back seat.

As soon as this person sat up, the driver found that this person was really tall, sitting there, there was nowhere to put his legs, his head had reached the roof of the car, and it was estimated that he must be two meters up, but he looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old, just an adult.

So, the driver did not take the nearest Taibai South Road, but went directly to the east, got on the Xi'an Ring Expressway, went around a big circle, got off the Xi'an High-tech Interchange, and arrived at Xi'an High-tech Middle School, and stopped near a flower bed on the side of the road.

The passenger looked down at his phone from beginning to end, and didn't seem to care about the driver's detour, and when he arrived, the driver said, "It's 45 in total." ”

The passenger took out his wallet, but only handed the driver thirty yuan, and then opened the door and got out of the car, and the driver hurriedly said: "Hey, hey, don't give enough money, 45!"

The passenger got off the train by himself and replied: "Enough, it's only thirty from the train station to middle school, and it's your own problem to take a detour." “

The driver was annoyed and got out of the car directly, but when he saw this person's height, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just stopped and didn't let him go.

The passenger smiled and said, "Well, I'll do you a favor later, even if I make up your 15 yuan." ”

The driver was a little confused, what is called a favor later, not the 15 yuan.

Just thinking about it, this person walked to the back of the car, squatted down gently, supported the butt of the car with his hand, and then lifted it hard, and actually lifted the rear wheel of the car into the air!

This frightened the driver enough, and stammered: "You, you, you don't pinch the monkey!

The man ignored the driver, but slowly moved the butt of the car to the right, and finally put the butt of the car directly on the flower bed on the side of the road!

The driver finally knew what he was doing to help him, the frame couldn't be driven away on the flower bed, and the driver had to beg for mercy: "Oh, you don't know Mount Tai, Brother Xiao, raise your hand, raise your hand!"

Hearing what the driver said, the young man nodded, walked to the edge of the flower bed, stepped on the flower bed with one foot, and lifted the car down again.

After putting the car down, the young man only blushed slightly, and there was nothing else unusual, clapped his hands, said goodbye to the driver, and walked away with his bag on his back.

The driver hurriedly checked the car, found that there was no other problem except for a slight scratch on the rear of the car, hurriedly got into the car, and drove away.
