Chapter 071-072
Chapter 071 Da Mian Ji
At 5 p.m. on September 30, the Chinese delegation of the first World Carnival arrived at the New York airport on time, and Chairman Nan Jiangang personally led the team to take the contestants to the hotel designated by the organizing committee.
The accommodation in the hotel has already been arranged in advance, Ling Xuefeng and the chairman live in one, Su Guangmo and Tan Shitian live in one, Lou Wushuang and Chu Yan live in one, and Liu Xiang's sister lives in one room......
As a result, when I arrived at the hotel, I found that there were so many people who brought their own "family members"!
Su Guangmo had to take his junior brother Yu Pingsheng with him wherever he went, Tan Shitian was followed by Xiao Chengwei with an excited face, Lou Wushuang also took his younger brother Zhang Shaohui, and Chu Yan brought his apprentice Zhu Qingyue with him...... Even Liu Xiang brought his best friend Yang Muzi, saying that it was a good companion for two girls.
Chairman Nan Jiangang had a big head like a cow, and immediately communicated with the person in charge of booking the hotel of the organizing committee to see if he could add a few more rooms, but he was told that the hotel designated by the organizer was already overcrowded.
In desperation, Nan Jiangang had no choice but to say: "Look, do you want to squeeze it, or find another hotel to live in?" β
Cheng Wei immediately raised his hand actively: "I can sleep on the ground!" β
Zhang Shaohui took the initiative to stand up and said: "I sleep in the same bed with my brother, we have always slept together when I was a child." β
"......" Lou Wushuang turned his head in embarrassment.
Everyone was very speechless about Zhang Ersil - how old were you when you were a child, and how old are you now? Can you squeeze a quilt with your brother?
In the end, Ling Xuefeng was more reliable, and said calmly: "I know that there is a hotel nearby, why don't you go there and book a few more rooms?" β
Everyone had no opinion on this, and the six contestants who participated in the carnival went to the front desk to check in first, signed in at the reception, received the carnival contestant tickets, and settled their luggage.
Originally, according to the arrangement of the organizing committee, Tan Shitian should have lived in a room with Su Guangmo, but Tan Shitian did not take the luggage, but secretly stuffed the door card into Su Guangmo's hand, leaned over and said: "Team Su, why don't you live with Deputy Team Yu, and I will accompany Cheng Wei to another hotel." β
Su Guangmo patted Tan Shitian on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's exactly what I want." β
Zhang Shaohui wrapped his arms around his brother's shoulders and said, "Brother, I'll live with you, let Xiao Zhu share a room with his master." β
Lou Wushuang handed over his room card to Zhu Qingyue, and said expressionlessly: "Living together in the same team is convenient for communication." β
On the issue of accommodation, everyone quickly reached a consensus.
After Ling Xuefeng settled his luggage, he took Tan Chenglou and Zhang to a nearby hotel to book two rooms, everyone rested for a while, and then met at the door of the hotel.
Ling Xuefeng said: "I have already decided on a place to eat with the cat, do you want to go over now?" β
There was a lot of trouble in the group before, and everyone was used to Ling Xuefeng calling the cat god "cat cat". However, it is one thing to watch him type, and it is another thing to hear him call out in person, for some reason, there is always a very strange sense of intimacy when I hear Ling Xuefeng call him "cat".
Even if Li Cangyu is really a "cat", it is also a sharp cat that comes to slap the opponent to death!
***
The place to eat was not far away, and Ling Xuefeng built yì everyone walked over directly.
Cheng Wei, who was about to see the cat god, was very excited, and rushed to the front quickly, Tan Shitian helplessly grabbed his wrist: "Don't go so fast, what if you get lost?" English is so poor, I definitely can't find my way back. β
Cheng Wei glared at him: "I'm not that stupid, how can I get lost?" There's navigation too! β
Tan Shitian dragged him over with a smile: "Okay, good, you are the smartest, in fact, I am afraid of getting lost, I have to follow you." β
Cheng Wei raised his chin and said, "Then you follow closely!" β
Tan Cheng and the two of them took the lead in the navigation, and a group of people followed them enthusiastically - thanks to the fact that this is abroad, if it is placed in a certain city in China, so many gods will definitely be chased and intercepted by paparazzi or fan groups.
It has been a long time since I walked down the street in casual clothes without wearing a mask or sunglasses to hide my identity, enjoying the warm sunshine in the evening, and the expressions on everyone's faces were very relaxed.
In order to facilitate the meeting, Li Cangyuding's restaurant was only one street away from the hotel arranged by the organizing committee, and Ling Xuefeng and the others soon came to the place to eat and found the private room number mentioned in Li Cangyu's text message.
Bai Xuan went to the airport to pick up Xiao Gu and Uncle Zhang, and did not participate in this party, so Li Cangyu waited for everyone in the restaurant alone.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Li Cangyu got up and opened the door to take a look, and was stunned.
ββI'll go, isn't there only six contestants at the carnival? Why did there be more than a dozen, and the team size is so huge?!
As soon as a certain little guy saw him, he pounced on him, hugged him excitedly and said, "Cat god cat god cat god!" β
Li Cangyu: "......"
Li Cangyu, who was almost knocked down, rubbed his forehead helplessly.
--Roaring so loudly, and repeating it four times, he is worthy of Cheng Wei, the number one brain-dead fan in the alliance.
was preempted by brain-dead fans, and Ling Xuefeng, who originally wanted to come forward and hug her, had to hold back for the time being.
Li Cangyu reluctantly pushed Cheng Wei away and said with a smile: "Why are you here too?!" β
Cheng Wei said happily: "The boss approved me to come with Team Tan, I haven't been to the United States yet, I just came to see you!" β
Li Cangyu stretched out his hand and rubbed the little guy's hair, and a rare doting smile appeared on his face: "I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you still frizzy and haven't grown up?" β
Cheng Wei was unconvinced: "I have obviously grown two centimeters taller, when I first met you, I was 1.73 meters, and now I am 1.75 meters." β
Li Cangyu looked him up and down: "Do you have one meter seventy-five?" How do I feel like you're retracted and shorter than before? β
Cheng Wei: "............"
Cheng Wei, who was bullied, glared at the cat god depressedly, Li Cangyu was soft-hearted by him, smiled and said, "Don't stare at it, I admit that you have grown taller, okay?" β
Cheng Wei became happy and said, "I'm not only taller, but also stronger than before!" As he spoke, he showed off the muscles on his arms with the cat god, but unfortunately, his thin arms really didn't have many muscles to show off......
- The big cat and the kitten got along happily, and Tan Shitian and Ling Xuefeng exchanged a look knowingly.
Among the few people who came in later, Chu Yan and Su Guangmo were both players who debuted in the second season, only one year later than Li Cangyu, who had fought many times on the field that year, and was more familiar with Li Cangyu, so they took the initiative to come over and say hello to him.
"The cat god still hasn't changed much!" Chu Yan said with a smile.
"You too!" Li Cangyu said with emotion, "I haven't seen you for several years, and it's still the same." β
"Haha, we old players haven't changed much, but the newcomers are growing fast." As he spoke, he dragged the apprentice over.
Zhu Qingyue was a little embarrassed, seeing this man who made him "cry and become famous" back then, he couldn't help blushing slightly, and said weakly: "The cat god is so ......"
Li Cangyu found the little boy crying, and immediately became interested: "Xiao Zhu also came over?" β
Zhu Qingyue stubbornly said: "Well, I'm here to be an audience." β
Chu Yan explained: "Xiao Zhu hasn't been abroad yet, so I'll take him to meet the market by the way." β
Li Cangyu agreed: "Yes, it's good to come out and go around." β
"This time, many people brought their own followers." Su Guangmo interjected, "There are a lot of people here today, will the cat god feel a lot of pressure?" β
Li Cangyu said briskly: "It's okay, I brought the card here, you can eat as you like." β
Yu Pingsheng was not very good at communicating with people, and followed behind his senior brother like a ghost, and only smiled lightly at Li Cangyu, which was regarded as a greeting. The smile is faint, if there is nothing, and he walks quietly - Deputy Yu is really amazing, if it is the middle of the night, it will definitely be able to stage a "midnight terror".
Li Cangyu nodded to Yu Pingsheng, and saw Zhang Shaohui behind him take the initiative to come over and enthusiastically stretch out his hand to Li Cangyu: "Cat God!" I haven't seen you for a few years, and I'm really getting more and more handsome! β
Li Cangyu said: "You are really getting better and better at talking. β
Zhang Shaohui smiled: "Of course, if you are the east today, I will praise you more!" β
Lou Wushuang's personality has always been relatively cold, he walked over and nodded to Li Cangyu, and then consciously stood beside his younger brother.
The remaining two sisters of the Red Fox team and Tan Shitian are all young generation players who debuted in the fourth season, and Li Cangyu is the first time to see these three real people today.
Ling Xuefeng intimately introduced: "This is Liu Xiang, the current captain of the Red Fox team, and this is Yang Muzi, the deputy team. β
Li Cangyu took the initiative to stretch out his hand and shook hands with the two girls, and said, "I am more familiar with Yu Bing, and I haven't seen the main and deputy teams of the second generation of Red Fox yet." β
Liu Xiang smiled very gently, and after withdrawing his hand, he said generously: "We often hear people talk about the name of the cat god, and today is the first time we meet, please take care of it in the future." β
This girl is very calm when she encounters a big scene, and she is generous and decent, Li Cangyu also praised her a lot, and said with a smile: "Team Liu is polite, turn around and say hello to Yu Bing." β
"yes, it will." Liu Xiang and Yang Muzi stood next to him.
"Hello cat." The last person to shake hands was Tan Shitian, who was the youngest captain in the group.
Li Cangyu glanced up at him, Tan Shitian had been standing with Ling Xuefeng just now, he was young, but he was not weak at all in his aura, unlike Ling Xuefeng's indifference and toughness, Tan Shitian always smiled, which would give people a feeling of "like a spring breeze" - this joker god has a full sense of humor, and he is not afraid of the cat god he met for the first time.
Li Cangyu has a good impression of this young player, he is not impetuous at all when he plays, and he is much more stable than Cheng Wei.
Cheng Wei actively introduced: "Cat God, this is the new captain of our time, Tan Shitian. β
"I know." Li Cangyu nodded, shook hands with Tan Shitian, and said with appreciation, "Team Tan is indeed young and promising. β
Tan Shitian smiled: "The cat god has won the prize." β
ββIf you want to abduct a kitten, you must have a good relationship with the big cat. Tan Shitian thought so, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
was robbed of the lead by Cheng Wei, and Ling Xuefeng decided to play the finale.
Unlike shaking hands with Li Cangyu politely like the players in front of him, Ling Xuefeng stepped forward, directly hugged Li Cangyu into his arms, and whispered in his ear: "Long time no see." β
Li Cangyu was hugged with a full heart, thinking that it wouldn't take long, right? Didn't we just meet in Shanghai before?
However, it was not easy to dismantle Ling Xuefeng's platform in front of so many people, Li Cangyu could only hug him cooperatively, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, let's find a place to sit first, you're welcome." β
Because there were too many people coming, Li Cangyu couldn't sit at the table of 10 people, so he asked the waiter to temporarily add two stools and two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and everyone sat around the table, although it was a little crowded, but it was also more lively.
Li Cangyu found a place to sit down and said, "This shop is opened by Cantonese, you just came to New York to adjust the time difference, it is better to eat some hometown food, so I will invite you to eat some light Cantonese food tonight." β
Cheng Wei was completely brainless in support of the cat god's decision, and immediately said: "Cantonese cuisine is good!" I don't like spicy food, and I'm not used to eating half-cooked Western food, Cantonese food is light and not greasy, and it tastes just right. β
Su Guangmo also said: "The cat god is bothered, eat something light to digest better." β
Li Cangyu is indeed very thoughtful about the problem, some people are easy to adapt to the soil and water when they first come abroad, and it is safest to eat some light hometown dishes.
Ling Xuefeng asked, "Do you want to order food first?" β
"Well, let's take a look at the menu and order what you like." Li Cangyu handed the ipad used for ordering to Ling Xuefeng next to him, who glanced at the menu, first found the page where he found the fish, and said, "There is only steamed fish here, is it enough to order three?" β
Li Cangyu said: "Four copies." β
Zhang Shaohui said suspiciously: "Is there so much steamed fish in four parts?" β
Li Cangyu raised his head, smiled and said, "Well, two copies are mine, and two copies belong to everyone." β
Everyone: ".................."
ββLi Cangyu vs all the professional players of the carnival delegation, competition item: eating fish, competition result: Li Cangyu won completely.
ββThe cat god's dedication to "fish" is really convincing!
***
More than a dozen people ordered a table full of dishes, everyone chatted and ate at the same time, and the private room was full of joy.
The atmosphere in the Miracle League has not been as lively as in the first season in the past two years, and everyone has not gathered as many times as usual, but Tan Shitian, the best player in the new generation, has been very humble and polite since his debut, and other newcomers do not dare to be too arrogant, so the new and old players can also chat when they sit together.
Although people from different teams on the field have to fight to the death every time they meet, now that the regular season is over, the carnival is an entertainment party, and there is not much pressure on everyone's hearts, and young people naturally don't need to be tense when they get together.
Considering that the carnival will start on October 2nd, in order not to reflect everyone's state, Li Cangyu, who is the east this time, did not buy wine.
"Come, replace wine with tea, let's have a toast first, and have a good time in New York!" Li Cangyu took the initiative to take the lead and stood up.
Everyone stood up cooperatively and toasted each other β clinking glasses to this rare encounter and toasting to the common goal of all.
***
After dinner, everyone went back to the hotel, and some of them were more interested in the night view of New York City and went shopping.
Ling Xuefeng wanted to communicate with Li Cangyu alone, but found that Cheng Wei's big light bulb had been following Li Cangyu all the time, Ling Xuefeng glanced at Tan Shitian and said, "Team Tan, is Cheng Wei's luggage still stored in the ZΓ i Hotel?" β
Tan Shitian immediately understood, and walked over with a smile and pulled Xiao Chengwei away: "Go back to the hotel first, take your luggage back to the room, otherwise it will be too late for a while, and the hotel front desk may get off work." β
Cheng Wei was puzzled: "Isn't the hotel front desk on duty 24 hours a day?" β
Tan Shitian's excuse was exposed, and he added without changing his face: "Maybe it's here in New York, let's go get it in advance." β
While dragging him forward, Cheng Wei had no choice but to look back at Li Cangyu with a reluctant face, and said, "Cat God, then I'll go get the luggage first, and I'll see you another day!" β
Li Cangyu waved his hand at him: "Go, come to me again when you have time, I'll take you around New York City." β
Cheng Wei became happy and followed Tan Shitian obediently.
After the two of them walked away, Li Cangyu glanced back at Ling Xuefeng and asked, "You put Cheng Wei away, do you have something to tell me?" β
"......" was discovered by the witty cat, and Ling Xuefeng no longer concealed it, stopped and looked at him and said, "How is the situation of your team here?" β
"It's okay." Li Cangyu also stopped, turned his head to meet his gaze, and said seriously, "The assassin you met in the online game last time happened to be in Boston, I went to meet him with Bai Xuan a few days ago, he is quite talented, I plan to cultivate it well to see if there is any possibility of developing into a teammate." β
Li Cangyu didn't want to hide it, after all, Ling Xuefeng's concern for him was out of the position of a friend, not the opponent was probing the enemy, so there was no need to hide it, anyway, the team would always be exposed to the media in the future.
The trust he gave him made Ling Xuefeng feel very relieved, and his eyes couldn't help but be gentle, and he said in a low voice: "It's really not easy to find a powerful killer, there are many players in the league who play killers now, but there are very few players who are as good as Lou Wushuang and Zhang Shaohui, if this person can be cultivated, it may become your sharpest weapon against many teams in the future, take advantage of it." β
Li Cangyu laughed: "Well, I think so too. β
Under the street lamp on the side of the street, Li Cangyu's handsome face was illuminated by the light with a warm halo, and his lips that opened and closed when he spoke seemed to be coated with a layer of soft luster, making Ling Xuefeng couldn't help but want to hug him and kiss him fiercely.
Ling Xuefeng's eyes were dark and deep, and there seemed to be a lot of unspeakable love hidden in them, Li Cangyu was stared at by those eyes, and suddenly felt a palpitation, and hurriedly looked away - coincidentally, he looked across the street, but found a same-sex couple kissing fiercely on the street, Li Cangyu touched his nose in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "Foreign countries are really open, cough cough, let's not be a light bulb." β
Li Cangyu pretended to be calm and walked forward quickly, the ambiguous atmosphere just now was completely destroyed, Ling Xuefeng had no choice but to smile helplessly, and took a step forward to walk side by side with Li Cangyu.
The backs of the two are elongated by the street lamp, and from a distance, it looks as if they are blending together.
ββββββββββ
Chapter 072 The squad assembled
Separated from Ling Xuefeng at the door of the hotel, Li Cangyu took a taxi back to his home - this time it was not his sister's house, but a small villa he had rented by himself in the past few days.
It's not very convenient to always live in my sister's house, and this time Xiao Gu Laozhang and Xiao Han have to come over, so Li Cangyu simply rented a bigger room and brought all his teammates here.
When I got home, as soon as I pushed the door, I heard the voice of a young man: "It's very big here, the cat god is so rich, two floors up and down!" β
Then followed by a very standard Mandarin voice full of temperament: "Don't run around, alas, what a little madman!" β
This is obviously Zhang Cassia Ming, Li Cangyu couldn't help but smile when he heard this, pushed open the door and said, "I'm back." β
Xiao Gu immediately pounced: "The cat god is back!" β
Li Cangyu, who was almost knocked down again, rubbed his temples helplessly - are all the young boys so enthusiastic and direct now?
"It's good that you've arrived, Bai Xuan has arranged the room for you, right?" Li Cangyu looked at Zhang Cianming and asked.
"Well, Deputy White cleaned up the room very cleanly." Zhang Cianming smiled, pulled the little boy back, and said, "What does it look like to hold the cat god and not let go?" The brain-dead powder qualification certificate has been issued to you, you now go and carry your luggage to the bedroom first. β
Xiao Gu was dragged aside by the uncle to sort out his luggage, Li Cangyu came to the living room, and saw that Bai Xuan was cutting fruit, so he walked to him...... Unceremoniously took a piece of apple and stuffed it into his mouth and asked, "Have you had dinner?" β
"I didn't have time to go home to do it, so I took the two of him to eat outside." Bai Xuan glanced at the gluttonous cat next to him who was busy eating fruit, smiled slightly, and asked, "How was your party with them?" How many people are here today? β
"It's a bit of an exaggeration." Li Cangyu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I originally thought that there were only six people from the carnival, but it turned out that there were twelve of them here today, and this group of people all brought their own followers." β
"So many people!" Bai Xuan was obviously a little surprised, "Is Cheng Wei also there?" β
"Hmm." Li Cangyu nodded, "There are also Yu Pingsheng, Zhang Shaohui, Xiao Zhu and Red Fox's deputy Yang Muzi." β
Bai Xuan sighed: "I haven't seen these people for a long time. β
Li Cangyu gently wrapped his arms around Bai Xuan's shoulders: "I'll take you to the next party." β
Bai Xuan glanced at him and said, "I'm not too interested in this kind of lively party, but tomorrow night's party of our own people, do you plan to be outside or at home?" β
Li Cangyu pointed to Bai Xuan's hands, and said with a smile: "Of course at home, with our Deputy Bai team personally cooking, they will not regret joining the team, and from then on, they will be even more desperate, closely surrounding Chef Bai." β
Hearing him say this, for some reason, Bai Xuan suddenly thought of a group of cats and dogs begging for food with their eyes shining around...... Khan, under the leadership of the cat god, is the team's painting style really going to become a foodie concentration camp?
***
The next day, Bai Xuan prepared a sumptuous meal in advance and set a full table in the restaurant.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Shurong arrived on time, and Uncle Gu Zhang and him met for the first time, but because of the frequent exchanges in the game, everyone chatted and was no stranger.
Xiao Han, who arrived last, looked a little cramped in front of this group of people.
Gu Siming looked at this mixed-race boy who was about the same age as himself, walked up to him very enthusiastically and said, "You are the assassin of the pants, right?" Hello, my name is Gu Siming. Is your hair dyed? β
Xiao Han: "......"
What is a pants assassin? Can you put away this weird title! Also, my hair is not dyed!
Xiao Han looked at Gu Siming with some unhappiness, and the latter looked at him curiously, the eyes of the two young men were bigger than the other, but one had pure black hair, and the other hair was beautiful gold.
Bai Xuan looked at this scene, his heart was about to sprout, he hurriedly walked over, stretched out his hands and rubbed the heads of the two of them one by one, and said softly: "Okay, don't quarrel when you two meet, go to dinner first, and try Dad's craftsmanship." β
After coming to the restaurant, Xiao Han's eyes lit up when he saw a young man in a shirt.
"Are you...... Dryads? No matter how calm he was, seeing the idol with his own eyes, Xiao Han's voice was a little uncomfortable.
Xie Shurong showed a handsome smile, put on a great look, and said, "Hello, I am Xie Shurong, and I am also a member of the new team of the Cat God. β
Xiao Han: "............"
Xie Shurong pointed to the seat next to him and said generously: "Xiaohan, come and sit." β
Xiao Han sat next to him flattered,
Bai Xuan couldn't help but laugh, Xiao Han, just look at Xie Shurong's pretend, he will definitely pretend to be a bad worker later.
***
The dishes on the table looked really full of color, flavor and flavor, and when Li Cangyu saw that everyone was here, he said, "Come, everyone move, you're welcome." β
Then, Xiao Han saw a strange picture - I saw that the four people except for Chef Bai suddenly began to fight for food, the captain snatched the fish in front of him, the tree god snatched the braised pork ribs in front of him, Gu Siming grabbed the eggplant into the bowl with a fast hand speed, and the man who looked the oldest was not to be outdone, and took the largest chicken wing with a chopstick.
Xiao Han: ".................."
How many days have you been hungry?!
Bai Xuan saw that Xiao Han was frozen there, so he smiled and brought a piece of braised pork to his bowl, and said, "Eat quickly, if you are polite to them, you won't have to eat it later." β
ββ¦β¦ Thank you. Xiao Han observed the gobbling up of the group of people while silently chewing the braised pork.
He was not very familiar with everyone, and he was still a little shy when he ate the food, but later, he found that if he didn't move quickly, he really couldn't keep up with the speed of this group of people, and the plates of meat were almost snatched up, and most of the vegetarian dishes were eaten...... Seeing that there was only the last piece of chicken wings left, and he hadn't even tasted it, Xiao Han had no choice but to stare at the chicken wings with the sharp eyes of a killer, picked up the chopsticks and quickly shot out, and accurately sandwiched it into the bowl.
On the table full of gunsmoke, he successfully grabbed the last piece of chicken wings, and he suddenly had a strange sense of accomplishment......
He said he was a professional player, but he used his hand speed to grab food...... That's all this team is about!
And the god of trees, can you eat a little slower, how is this image completely inconsistent with the personable swordsman in your imagination?
***
Basically no one spoke at the dinner, because everyone's mouths were stuffed with delicious food, and they couldn't take care of it when they were busy eating, so who still had time to chat?
It wasn't until after the meal that everyone came to the living room to chat with their bellies.
Li Cangyu asked with a smile, "How is the cooking skills of our white deputy team?" β
Zhang Cassia immediately gave a thumbs up: "Sure enough, it's the legendary chef!" β
Xiao Gu also licked his mouth and said, "It's so delicious, I've never eaten such a delicious eggplant!" β
Xie Shurong wrapped his arms around Bai Xuan's shoulders and said proudly: "I joined the team for our white vice team, and our white vice team is not only a god milk, but also a god chef!" β
Bai Xuan glanced at him with a smile and said, "You can't escape the fate of washing the dishes if you pat me on the back." β
Xie Shurong immediately hugged Bai Xuan and coquettishly: "Bai Xuan, good Bai Xuan, you are the best, can I not wash the dishes today?" I've been washing for a month! β
Bai Xuan said, "No, hurry up and wash it." β
Xie Shurong had no choice but to run to the kitchen in frustration, but as soon as he entered the kitchen, he said excitedly: "Great, there is a dishwasher here!" β
Xiao Han: "............"
Don't think of a tree as an idol. In order not to wash the dishes, he actually hugged the white deputy team and was shamelessly coquettish, and seeing the dishwasher was like winning the lottery...... Is there a bit of a great god? What a disillusionment!
