When Hu Lai came out after changing his clothes in the locker room, he found Mao Xiao and Meng Xi standing outside the door who had changed into school uniforms and carried schoolbags, two big men on the left and one on the right, making Hu Lai think that he had seen the door god.

"Wow, what are you two doing?"

Mao Xiao frowned and said to Hu Lai: "We are here to cheer you up......"

Meng Xi pointed at Mao Xiao and said, "No, it's you, yourself." ”

Mao Xiao didn't care about his friend's words, he looked at Hu Lai very seriously and said, "I know that the coach is too strict sometimes, and I also know that this is a little unfair to you...... You're just a beginner and you're facing such high standards...... But either way, don't give up, Hulai. Be sure to keep it up! ”

Hu Lai was confused by Mao Xiao's serious tone and the content of his words: "What's the matter, this is?" ”

Meng Xi pursed his lips and explained, "This kid is worried that you will take the initiative to choose to quit the team." ”

"Huh? Why do you have such an idea? Hulai asked in surprise.

"The rest of the team is betting on when you're going to quit?" Meng Xi further explained.

Hearing the word "bet", Hu Lai's eyes lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly asked Mao Xiao: "Then did you participate?" ”

This made Meng Xi, who was next to him, have an illusion that Hu Lai was tiptoeing up, looking at Mao Xiao with stars in his eyes, and asked this sentence......

Mao Xiao also felt Hu Lai's sudden enthusiasm, he didn't quite understand why Hu Lai came to his senses when he heard this, he shook his head suspiciously: "No." How could I take part in that boring gamble, they're mocking you in this way, Hulay. ”

Hearing that Mao Xiao didn't participate, Hu Lai looked very disappointed, and his head hung down: "You missed a great opportunity to make money, Mao Xiao ......"

"Make money? What makes money? Mao Xiao was confused.

Meng Xi saw it on the side, and he heaved: "A gambling game without money, Hu Lai, everyone is just having a good time, and they don't even have the bet of inviting guests to dinner." ”

Hearing Meng Xi say this, Hu Lai showed an expression of disappointment and disgust on his face: "Hey, a bunch of stingy ghosts! I'm going to let you get involved, aren't they all betting on when I'll quit the team? If you bet that I won't quit the team, won't you eat all of their money in the end? ”

Mao Xiao was shocked by Hu Lai's brain hole, and he asked, "Are you short of money, Hu Lai?" ”

Hulai thought of the huge sum of 350,000 yuan that his parents had borrowed to send him to this school, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't hate money. ”

"So for the sake of money, you can actually endure such training and coaching, you are amazing!" Meng Xi gave Hu Lai a thumbs up next to him.

Hu Lai pouted: "Two different things. I'm not going to quit the team, I finally came in, what is it to quit? I just thought I could make some money by the way...... Forget it, maybe I'm short of gold in the five elements, and I don't have any money in my life......"

He shook his head and said in a very vicissitudes of tone.

He thought of the hundred yuan that was lost by Li Zhiqun again, although he had a killer weapon to make Li Zhiqun shut up at any time, but he was missing a hundred yuan, and it was really not worth it now when he thought about it......

Because he is not afraid of scolding and quarreling with Li Zhiqun, but he really lacks the hundred yuan!

Another week and three days of training went by quickly, and in the process, Hulay gradually noticed that his body seemed to be less responsive to the intense training.

At first, he could barely get out of bed on the second day of training, and his whole body was sore, as if he was beaten by ten big men with sandbags when he slept at night.

But now he only needs a carp to jump off the bed, without hindrance, and his body movements are natural and smooth like flowing water.

He knew that the soreness seemed to be caused by something called lactic acid, which was an inevitable situation that would occur after he had not exercised for a long time.

And as he trained more and more, his body gradually adapted to the intensity of this exercise, and the lactic acid accumulated in his body naturally plummeted, and his body no longer sore.

Anyway, it's a good thing that his body doesn't ache anymore, and he doesn't have to try to pretend that everything is normal in front of his father, lest he find out that there is a problem - you must know that after the training on the last three days, he went home and acted in front of his father, no matter how uncomfortable his body was, he definitely didn't show the slightest abnormality in his body movements and facial expressions.

This requires a strong ability to control one's body, and if it were the former Hulai, I am afraid that it may not really be able to do it.

However, after this period of training, as well as the effect of the two bottles of [Pulp Cleansing Elixir], Hu Lai did not show the slightest flaw.

He felt that the effect might not be as obvious as the [Smart Potion], but the [Pulp Cleansing Potion] really improved his coordination, and he didn't make any mistakes due to uncoordinated movements in such a uncomfortable situation.

It's nice to have a plug-in!

Hulay praised the system from the bottom of his heart.

This weekend, the Dongchuan High School football team will play their first national qualifier against the city's 50th High School on their home turf.

The specific time is 3 p.m. on Saturday.

As a member of the Higashikawa Middle School boys' soccer team, he had to attend, even though he probably wouldn't be able to play at all.

Football games for middle school students are not the same as professional games, and there is no such thing as a big squad. As long as you're part of the team, you can participate, and if you can't play, you sit on the bench, and if you can't sit on the bench, you can stand on the sidelines next to the bench.

What are you doing there? Cheer on the team and give the team a hand, such as carrying things, helping to organize and guard things. When the players on the field were at halftime, they were handed mineral water and towels to wipe their sweat in time. If it's too hot, these guys also fan the players with towels to cool them down.

China's middle school soccer team does not have the manager system in Japanese manga, and the players do all the chores themselves.

This is the task and responsibility of being part of a team. It is also a necessary part of cultivating students' cohesion.

In this way, both those who play and those who do not play can have a "team" concept. Only then will there be a situation where those players who can't play feel that the game has nothing to do with them, the team's honor has nothing to do with them, and they don't have to do their best in training.

Football is a team sport, team awareness is very important, if a team is separated from Germany, everyone can not be united, even if the individual combat effectiveness is strong, it is difficult to go far in the competition.

Running to school without classes on Saturdays is naturally suspicious. But Hulay was not very worried, because Saturday happened to be his father's work, and although it was not a late shift, it was six or seven o'clock when he came home from work, which was perfectly avoided.

Despite not being named for the tournament, Hulay is looking forward to the game and is looking forward to coming on Saturday afternoon.

Because this is the first time he has participated in an official competition as a member of the school team.

This had never happened in the previous sixteen years of his life.

It can be said to be the first experience in life.

PS,I found that the word shengzhang cup in the previous chapter was automatically replaced with a high-ranking cup.,Originally, shengzhang cup and shizhang cup were objectively existing middle school football events.,So this name is also used.。

It looked awkward after being replaced with the Senior Officer's Cup, so I just changed it all.

It was directly renamed "Anton Cup".

It is hereby clarified.
