Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Search for the Root Treasure

On the morning of the weekend, Wang Feipeng found the home game venue of the Shanghai Oriental Sharks basketball team: Yuanshen Gymnasium, there is no game today, the stadium is open for a fee, there are very few people, Wang Feipeng walked around, did not see valuable people, think twice, if you want to show yourself, you have to go to the training base to find the coaching staff to have a chance, to the door of the stadium to inquire about the team training place: Shanghai Meilong Basketball Training Base, mobile phone search address, the distance is very far, southwest of the city, it takes more than an hour to take a car.

In the end, I decided to go to Chongming Island first, go to Xu Genbao Football Base to go around, is there a chance to meet the old man, the address and route have been checked. First take the subway, then take the car, it took nearly 5 hours to find Xu Genbao football base, the green trees in front of the door, came to the gate of the base, the old man of the gatehouse did not let in, Wang Feipeng learned from the experience of the previous visits, no longer long-winded with the old man, went directly to a remote place, looked at the lack of monitoring, breathed a sigh of relief, a little tiptoe, the figure from the ground to the trunk, from the trunk to the treetops, the probe looked inside, there was no one inside, from the treetops to the wall, and fell into the wall lightly.

Wang Feipeng walked around, the base covers an area of more than 100 acres, the scenery is very beautiful, a Lingbi stone is written on Xu Genbao's handwritten "to create China's Manchester United", which also shows the ambition of the owner to set up a football base. The training base consists of three semi-standard football fields, an indoor football field and a football hotel. Many teenagers in the football field are divided into different age groups in training, each group has a teacher to guide, I didn't see the old man, if the old man is here, he must be in the football hotel, Wang Feipeng found the hotel bar and asked where the old man lived? Because there was no appointment, the waiter categorically refused, hoping not to disturb his rest casually, it seems that there are many people who usually look for this old man.

In desperation, Wang Feipeng had to go around again, there is an independent balcony on the third floor of the hotel, the room sits north and faces south, so that the room is unique, the base is founded by the old man, if you live here for a long time, you should choose the best room, Wang Feipeng carefully observed from a distance, there is monitoring around, there are a lot of people coming and going, or wait for dark to touch in and see.

Wang Feipeng came to the football field, looking for an opportunity to inquire with the resting players, and confirmed that the old man lived in the room with a balcony, Wang Feipeng settled down, it is now more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and he has not eaten until now, and his stomach is a little hungry, so he finds the commissary to buy some food and waits for dark.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, several monitoring points have long been figured out, Wang Feipeng tightened his belt, toes on the wall a little bit of strength, the figure rushed up to the second floor, and then took a breath, floating from the second floor to the balcony on the third floor, the balcony door was closed, Wang Feipeng listened to the movement inside, and quietly entered the house from the side window, only the living room light was on, Wang Feipeng looked inside sideways, and saw an old man nesting in the sofa watching the live TV broadcast of La Liga games with relish. The old man is the same as the photos on the Internet, but his spirit is obviously much worse.

Wang Feipeng retreated to the balcony, raised his hand and knocked on the balcony door, but there was no response, knocked a few more times, and finally an old voice came from inside, "Who?" Wang Feipeng replied, "It's me, Coach Xu." There was a sound from inside, and I heard the old man open the door, probably not seeing anyone, Wang Feipeng knocked on the balcony door again, "I'm on the balcony, Coach Xu, please open the balcony door." ”

In the middle of the sound, the balcony door was opened, and the old man saw Wang Feipeng standing outside the balcony, obviously stunned, "Who are you?" How do you climb onto my balcony? ”

Wang Feipeng bent down slightly, putting on a smile on his face, "Coach Xu, can I go in and talk?" ”

The old man hesitated for a moment, thinking that he was a bad old man, what was so terrible, and turned around to let Wang Feipeng enter the house.

After coming to the living room and taking a seat, the old man had sharp eyes and stared at Wang Feipeng, "Tell me, who are you, why did you climb the balcony, if there is no suitable reason, I will call the security guard." ”

Wang Feipeng continued with a smile on his face, "I looked for the bar waiter, but they refused to contact without an appointment, for fear of disturbing you, so I had no choice but to come in over the wall to find you." ”

"What are you looking for from me?" The old man continued to look like a knife.

"I have admired the name of Coach Xu for a long time, I admire your vision and sense of responsibility, and I want to ask you to give me a chance to try out for one thing today."

"What are you capable of, where do you want to try out?"

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, playing football since I was a child, combining martial arts and football, I have always focused on learning, so I rarely participated in competitions, and now I am admitted to university, my studies can slow down, I want to participate in high-level professional competitions, I found several professional clubs in Shanghai a few times, but they didn't give me the opportunity to try, so I came to you."

"I'm over 70 years old this year, and there are countless people who come to me every year to play football, and if I am responsible for everyone, it will not exhaust me to death."

"A real football player, I think you're still interested." Wang Feipeng's face was like a flower, and he picked up an apple on the coffee table, "If I sit and kick this apple into the bathroom toilet, can you give me a chance?" ”

The old man glanced at the bathroom, which was not in the same line as where the kid was sitting, let alone the toilet, unless Apple would turn the corner, "Okay, if you kick in, I'll give you a chance to kick in front of me." ”

Wang Feipeng raised his left foot, infused with internal force, and kicked out with the power of femininity, the apple flew to the opposite wall, bounced to the bathroom like a ball, and rebounded again on the wall of the bathroom, and then heard a sound of water! The old man got up from the sofa and rushed to the bathroom, confirming that the apple had fallen into the toilet accurately, and the old man walked back to the living room with a surprised face, "Stinky boy, Lao Tzu's apple was bought to eat, but you kicked it into the toilet, don't hurry up and scoop up the apple, if the toilet is blocked, Lao Tzu will break your legs!" ”

Wang Feipeng was stunned, his face was a little red, and he hurriedly rushed into the bathroom, scooped up the apple, and threw it into the trash. The old man watched him finish a qiē, and said slowly: "Since I have already agreed, I will give you a chance to show, if you can't satisfy me, don't think about getting a trial opportunity." Come with me to the indoor court below. ”

"Thank you, Coach Xu!" Wang Feipeng hurriedly followed.

The indoor soccer field is a steel-roofed indoor seven-a-side football pitch laid with artificial turf, and the dormitories of the students are located on top of the football field. There are still many children playing here at night, seeing the old man come in, several coaches hurriedly caught up, the old man stood 30 yards away from the goal near the sideline, asked for a football, and then took out a piece of cloth from his pocket, let Wang Feipeng blindfold his eyes, Wang Feipeng was stunned, "Lao Xu, you have been prepared, it's too treacherous!" ”

"Stinky boy, the hope of Chinese football is pinned on you, hurry up and blindfold!" After he was blindfolded, he handed him a football, "You turn three times, and then kick the ball into the goal, if you enter, leave the trial to me, if you don't score, get out of me immediately!" ”

"Lao Xu, you are too unkind, you make it clear that you want to drive me away!" Wang Feipeng hugged the football and complained.

"You martial arts practitioners don't see the six roads and listen to the eight directions, and what kind of strong Vajra legs and the like, what is this little thing?" The old man said triumphantly.

"Lao Xu, you have to talk about it, or I will turn over your balcony every day." After saying that, holding the ball and turning around three times, putting down the ball, raising his foot to shoot, everyone heard a loud "bang" at close range, the football flew to the goal in the distance like a cannonball, and the net behind the goal was hit by a high-speed flying football and seemed to fly!

The people around were completely stunned! Including the old man Xu Genbao, it took half a day to react! Wang Feipeng pulled down the strip of blindfolded cloth and came to the old man's side with a smile, "Dear Old Xu, please, leave a phone call for me, it's okay to chat with you, hehe..."

The old man glared at him fiercely, took out his mobile phone and wrote down Wang Feipeng's number and called back, after confirming that it was correct, "Get out of here immediately, I will contact you after making an appointment!" ”

Wang Feipeng had to leave in a sneer, it takes several hours to drive from here to downtown Shanghai, and now it is more than 8 o'clock in the evening, and he can't go back, so he has to open a room in the football hotel, and he is indignant: "Lao Xukai's hotel is expensive, and he has paid the introduction fee!" ”
