Chapter 54: 9 Darts and the Draft
"I'll compare with you and talk about the rules!" Liu Han's calm performance aroused everyone's curiosity, and Liu Han before that was a silly and innocent teenager in their image.
"Don't bully rookies, keep it simple, 501, boss, would you like to be a scorekeeper? Draw five percent. LaBeouf's friends and the barkeeper's bravery finally shocked the Dallas cowboys, who invited the barkeeper to be a scorekeeper and take a five-percent commission on the winner's prize.
"As long as you don't make trouble, I'll do my best to meet your requests." The bar owner readily agreed to the cowboy's invitation, and there was money to be made, so why refuse.
"The basic score of 501 points per person, ten rounds, each round of each person three darts, the score will decrease with the score thrown, the first to reduce 501 points to 0 points wins, if no one in 20 rounds is reduced to 0 points, the score is smaller wins. Do you understand? After agreeing to the cowboy's invitation, the bar owner gave Liu Han a brief explanation of the rules.
"Thank you boss, I see, can I start?" Liu Han roughly understood the meaning, and then he began to count silently in his heart to see what kind of dart order he could use to reduce the 501 points as soon as possible.
"Yellow Skin, I won't bully you, let you come first." The denim in Dallas still has a stinky mouth.
Liu Han ignored their ridicule, but boldly walked to the target plate and picked up the darts originally prepared by the bar.
Because his right arm was injured, Liu Han only picked up a dart with his left hand, and then shot without the slightest hesitation, the speed of the dart was very fast, and the power was also very large, after hitting the target plate, the whole target plate shook a little, everyone looked towards the target plate, Liu Han's first dart did not shoot the triple area of the highest score of 20 points, but shot the double area of 12 points.
"Haha, it's really a rookie, my hands are shaking." The Dallas cowboys didn't pay much attention to the etiquette of the game, and they kept mocking Liu Han's first shot with words.
Liu Han didn't seem to have any reaction to these ridiculed words, and he seemed to have concentrated his mind on throwing darts as if he was in a basketball game.
Liu Han then picked up the second dart, still shot quickly, this time hitting the triple zone of 20 points, the ridicule of the cowboys finally quieted down, in the darts competition, anyone who can accurately hit the triple zone should have good strength.
Liu Han picked up the third dart and hit the triple zone of 20 points again, so that Liu Han threw the target three times and scored a total of 144 points, so his remaining score now is 357 points.
The cowboys sent out one of them, named Jack, and Jack said to Liu Han, who was walking to the target board to take down the dart he had shot on the board: "Wow, it's still one hand, what's the matter, did someone grab and break your right hand when you were stealing something?" Ha ha. ”
Liu Han ignored this guy who looked like a mad dog.
This cowboy named Jack is the guy who won LaBeouf yesterday, and his darts are very good, hitting the double zone of 18 points and the triple zone of 20 points twice in his three darts, so that he scored 156 points in his first round of darts, and he has 345 points left, 12 points ahead of Liu Han.
Liu Han once again came to the target board, picked up the dart with his uninjured left hand, and threw the first dart of the second round without the slightest hesitation and aim, the dart plunged into the target board with a strong rotation, and shot the triple zone of 19 points, and then Liu Han hit the triple zone of 20 points twice in a row.
Liu Han's performance of hitting the triple zone in a row finally made this group of arrogant cowboys shut up, they all silently counted Liu Han's score in their hearts, Liu Han's first dart hit the triple zone of 19 points, so he got 57 points, and hit the triple zone of 20 points twice in a row, so it is 120 points, then Liu Han's total score in the second round is 177 points, and Liu Han has 357 points left at the end of the last round, so now Liu Han still has 180 points left, as long as the next round hits three times the triple zone of 20 points, Then this oriental yellow guy who made them very angry will stage a miracle of nine darts to end the game, you know, such things are rare in official darts competitions.
Liu Han, who finished his second round of darts, walked to the target board and picked up the darts he threw after the bar owner read out his score.
Cowboy Jack finally felt a little nervous, losing money was a small thing, but it was too embarrassing to lose to a yellow guy he had never looked down upon. Cowboy Jack, who began to fluctuate in his mentality, made a mistake in his second round of darts, he was going to hit a 20-point triple in a row, but he hit a 20-point triple on the second throw, and the other two darts hit the 20-point triple zone very accurately, Jack's strength should not be underestimated, he scored 140 points in his second round of darts, and there are 205 points remaining.
Cowboy Jack, who began to walk to the target and was about to take out the darts he had shot, silently prayed to God in his heart that he would not let this Oriental boy hit the triple zone of 20 points.
Liu Han said to LaBeouf as he walked to the dart throwing area: "LaBeouf, I'm going to pack up and collect the money, and think about how I plan to spend the money." Liu Han's words made LaBeouf a little stunned, but it made the cowboys slap the table one after another.
Liu Han didn't seem to care about the cowboys' anger and threats, he picked up the dart as easily as he walked in his own home, and then threw it without the slightest thought, the first dart hit the triple zone of 20 points very accurately, and LaBeouf and his friends watched Liu Han's performance with bated breath.
Liu Han picked up the second dart again, and threw the second dart in the same relaxed way that made the cowboys feel angry, still in the triple area of twenty points, and at this time the cowboys began to sit still.
Liu Han continued to pick up the third dart, and this time he turned to the cowboys and smiled and said, "Pay for it, cowboys with smelly mouths." ”
After speaking, Liu Han threw the dart in his hand the moment he turned his head, and the dart pierced into the target plate with a strong rotation that seemed to be exactly the same as the previous two times, and it was an accurate twenty-third time area.
"Oh—" LaBeouf and his friends began to cheer, and it was rare for them to see this kind of nine-dart finish in real life.
The cowboys looked a little incredulous in the face of such a scene, they would not have thought that this Oriental boy with a plaster on his right arm was so at stake.
"Shell out, cowboys, don't let me down, there's five percent of me in there." The owner of the bar directly asked the cowboys for money, after all, LaBeouf's group was his regular customers.
The cowboys left the bar in despair at the sight of the barkeeper and LaBeouf, leaving two thousand dollars behind when they left.
"Old Jeff, I'm in for a treat tonight, everyone's wine, haha, but you have to get a juice for our hero first." Liu Han was happier than he was to win LaBeouf, and he took out the money he had won and was ready to invite the whole bar to drink.
"LaBeouf, I think you should take out half of it first, he won the game, do you plan to take it alone?" The owner of the bar stepped up at the right time.
"No, LaBeauf, I'm going to invite everyone to drink even if I take it out, so it's better to stay together, but you'll definitely leave five percent of it for you." Liu Han looked very angry.
"Well, thank you, young man, I have to say, you made us all look at each other today, and I've never seen a game that can be finished with nine darts, so I'm going to get a nine-percent discount on all of my drinks today." The bar's owner, Jeff's words, caused the crowd to start shouting with joy again.
"Haha, old Jeff, I really didn't misunderstand you, how about it, this is my little son-in-law, very good, right?" LaBeouf seemed very happy today, and even admitted Liu Han's identity in front of everyone.
When Liu Han and LaBeouf returned home, the whole family was waiting for the "unreliable" LaBeouf and Liu Han with an arm injury, LaBeouf was very happy today, and his face was inevitably flushed, of course, he couldn't avoid the "lesson" of his two daughters and his wife, and he took the injured Liu Han to the bar This matter seems very "unreliable".
Liu Han also received Safina's "lesson", of course, Liu Han knew that this was Safina's concern for him, so Safina's "lesson" did not last long in Liu Han's smile.
The next weekend, Li Rui was also resting at home today, and he received a call from his old classmate George, saying that Liu Han and Li Rui should go to him.
Li Rui drove LaBeouf to George's house with Liu Han, and he didn't quite know what George was looking for him and Liu Han.
"Li, Liu, come in and sit first. Today I called you and Liu to come to me to talk about Liu's participation in this year's draft. After George welcomed Li Rui and Liu Han into the house, he directly stated the purpose of calling them both here.
"George, do you think it's appropriate for Liu to participate in the draft this year? He's got a lot of injuries right now, and the draft prospects are certainly not going to be too good. Li Rui voiced his concerns.
"I know, so I'm looking for you and Liu to talk about this matter, seriously, I don't want Liu to participate in the draft this year, if he is there, I dare to guarantee that he can win the championship next year, but I think it's better for him to make his own decisions about this matter." George also cares about Liu Han very much.
"So Liu, I wonder if you have considered the path you should take in the future?" George left the decision to Liu Han himself.
"George, thank you for your concern, in fact, I would like to stay, I know what my own injury is, but I think I should participate in this year's draft, I don't think it is too challenging to continue to play in college, I want to go to a higher level to train myself, even if my right arm is not recovering well, but I believe I can definitely work on my left hand." Liu Han finally showed his gradual maturity at this time, and this injury experience made him begin to mature both physically and mentally.
