Chapter 17: A Little Bloated
When he woke up the next day, Li Liang was a little dizzy, but he was in a good mood.
Yesterday he successfully completed the mission, relying on a "trash talk" to disturb the mind of 19-year-old Durant.
This kid really started to have a crush on Scarlett Johansson when he was in college, and he has been unrequited for a long time! (It's a really smart system.) )
Otherwise, I wouldn't have said on social media that I wanted to drink other people's bath water in 2011, I couldn't hold it back!
Durant in '07 was still a child, and his hair didn't grow up, and now his hair is almost full, but Johnson still doesn't seem to be interested in him.
Sure enough, he's still not handsome enough.
Li Liang looked in the mirror and said in his heart that although he is not as good as Durant in terms of basketball talent, he is still two grades higher than Durant in terms of appearance.
Li Liang thought again, if Durant can change his hairstyle, maybe he can improve his appearance a little, at least by half a grade.
After a while, Wei Dazhi also got up.
This kid seems very excited, I don't know what time I went to bed last night, and I've been working on the strategy.
He now has two dark circles under his eyes, and Li Liang is very skeptical that he can drive.
Don't fall asleep on the road, if something happens, Li Liang's dream of entering the NBA will be in vain.
But Wei Dazhi seemed confident.
He went to the school gate first, and someone from the car rental company took the initiative to drive the car over.
Because he learned that Li Liang invited a girl, he rented a Mercedes-Benz E400 travel model with Wei Dazhi.
The rental price is not cheap, but it is excellent in performance, comfortable and safe.
Wei Dazhi drove the car downstairs and asked, "How is it, this car is good, right?" Hey, who did you invite, and where are you going to pick them up? ”
Li Liang packed up his things, asked him to drive the car downstairs in the girls' dormitory, and called Zhu Shu to ask her to come down.
After a while, Zhu Shu was still wearing the long-sleeved shirt and jeans from yesterday, and came down with a bag on her back, but her hair was much neater.
Wei Dazhi saw that it was Zhu Shu, his eyes widened and said, "Damn, is it a steel-toothed girl?" Big brother, you won't, right? I take this taste... You come for real. Hey, it won't be just a steel-toothed girl, right? ”
Li Liang said: "I also asked her to find someone to work with, I don't know who it is, you ask for more blessings." ”
Zhu Shu came to the front of the car, looked at the silver Mercedes-Benz logo, and said, "This car... Rent is expensive, right? ”
Li Liang said: "You don't have to worry about this, I can afford to buy this car, let alone rent, is there anyone with me?" ”
Zhu Shu said: "There is also Bai Xiaoting, but she has to dress up." ”
"Bai Xiaoting?" Wei Dazhi was in high spirits when he heard this name!
Bai Xiaoting is a recognized goddess-level figure among the international students at Ken University.
With long hair, long legs, a long face, an American-style bodybuilder body and tanned wheat skin, big watery eyes and a high nose bridge, the face is completely natural, and the boy who pursues him in Kentucky can form three basketball teams.
Li Liang frowned, remembering that at the celebration party that day, when he and Zhu Shu danced, one of the anger points collected was from Bai Xiaoting.
I don't know if she was the mastermind who teased Zhu Shu that day, wanting Zhu Shu to make a fool of herself at the party.
But it doesn't make sense to think about it.
In front of Bai Xiaoting, Zhu Shu is just an ugly duckling, and the limelight is completely overshadowed by Bai Xiaoting on weekdays.
There is no one among the international students who does not know Bai Xiaoting, her fish pond is estimated to be full, and she does not need to be fed, just post photos on Twitter, and bring her own dry food.
Li Liang has always disliked such girls, and the two do not deal with each other very much.
"Why did she come along?"
Li Liang was still wondering that Bai Xiaoting had already walked out of the dormitory.
The weather was still a little cool in April, and Bai Xiaoting was already wearing white draped silk cropped pants, exposing her slender feet and neck.
The top is lined with tights and a white half-sleeved jacket, with a rolled-up sun hat on his head and a pink suitcase at his feet.
When Wei Dazhi saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her carry the box and put it in the trunk of the car.
Li Liang crossed his waist and looked at Bai Xiaoting, and said, "Hey, we're on a graduation trip, can you wear a sporty style?" What to wear silk clothes, it's easy to get dirty. ”
Bai Xiaoting glared at Li Liang and said, "If it's dirty, you don't need to wash it, can you take care of it?" I'm in civilian clothes, and I wear it when I go out to play, and I wear a new style in the spring, you know what. ”
"Cut ~ Chloei's new style, casual clothes, what kind of swimwear can't go into the water, right?"
Li Liang muttered a few words, he has always been dismissive of girls' luxury clothing.
The two were arguing, Wei Dazhi and Zhu Shu had already put everything in place and could go directly.
The United States is a country on wheels, with extremely convenient car transportation, a well-developed highway system, gas stations, Motel hotels everywhere.
The four got into the car and started their graduation journey.
Their first stop was Memphis, Tennessee.
Tennessee is right next to Kentucky, and driving all the way south, you quickly crossed the state border.
They arrived in Nashville at noon, where they had a lunch.
Wei Dazhi proposed to invite the two girls to dinner, but Bai Xiaoting insisted on AA, she said: "It's enough for us to rub your car, but if you don't want to eat, let's find something to eat." ”
This is exactly what Li Liang meant, he found a steak shop, ordered several steaks by himself, and a large glass of milk.
Zhu Shu was a little surprised to see Li Liang eating so much, Li Liang said: "Eat more to grow your body, especially drinking milk to supplement protein...... Hey, Piggy, you drank a lot of milk when you were a kid, right? ”
Zhu Shu shook her head and said, "No, I don't really like to drink milk, I'm a little lactose intolerant." ”
Zhu Shu didn't hear that Li Liang's tone was a little weird, and replied seriously, Bai Xiaoting on the side said, "Zhu Shu, don't pay attention to him!" Li Liang, don't make fun of girls. ”
Li Liang said: "What's wrong with me kidding? I'm Zhu Shu's good friend, do you say it's a steel-toothed girl? ”
Zhu Shu nodded and said, "Well, the two of us are good friends." ”
[Rage +20, from Bai Xiaoting]
Li Liang looked at it, I damn it, Bai Xiaoting was angry again, it seems that she can brush up a lot of anger points along the way.
It's a pity that her anger value is not weighted, unlike George Carr, which has a weighting of 5.
After completing the task yesterday, the anger value has risen to 490, plus the 20 points contributed by Bai Xiaoting today, it finally exceeded 500 points.
500 points, which is only enough to buy a three-point hit potion or an ability multiplier.
It's a pity that the value-added agent can only add 1 point, or add lateral movement ability, which has to be filled, I don't know how many people to anger and how much anger points to draw.
Li Liang is not too worried, there is never a lack of anger on the basketball court, what kind of basketball can he play without anger?
After arguing, Bai Xiaoting and Zhu Shu found a Chinese restaurant to eat a little.
Li Liang didn't expect that the relationship between Bai Xiaoting and Zhu Shu was actually good.
That night, it was not Bai Xiaoting who asked Zhu Shu to make a fool of herself, but several other girls teasing her, and Bai Xiaoting has always been very protective of Zhu Shu.
Therefore, Li Liang was a little puzzled, where did her anger come from that night?
After a short break at noon, they continued to drive southwest to Memphis, this time to change Li Liang to drive.
The tall man adjusted his seat back, adjusted the rearview mirror, and found that Bai Xiaoting glanced at him, and then lowered his head to avoid his gaze.
She still wears that hat in the car, it looks weird, and the sun is not enough, what hat is she wearing?
The three-hour drive from Nashville to Memphis was not fast, and he stopped and stopped along the way.
There are not many cars on the road, and the spring Tennessee scenery is beautiful, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the two girls have to come down to take pictures from time to time.
Wei Dazhi acted as the photographer of the two, and Zhu Shu was a little shy, and he said that he would shoot well.
And Bai Xiaoting's requirements are high, the light is not good for a while, the scenery is not right for a while, and she is always dissatisfied.
Li Liang was tired of looking at it, took the digital camera from Wei Dazhi, and said, "I'll take a picture of you!" If the photo is not taken well, first find the reason from yourself, why do those celebrities pose a little and look good in one shot? You can't shoot any matter how you shoot? It's not that the overall quality is not too hard! ”
Bai Xiaoting was so angry with Li Liang that she couldn't speak, so Li Liang clicked and took a picture of her.
Looking at the effect, on the side of the road, under the blue sky and white clouds, sunshine and green grass, Bai Xiaoting frowned slightly, pouted slightly, and had a different taste.
"Look, you did a good shot, didn't you?"
Hearing Li Liang say this, Bai Xiaoting and Zhu Shu came up to take a look and found that the composition, lighting, and framing were quite good, and the expression was just right.
Bai Xiaoting frowned slightly, but she was still not convinced.
But then Li Liang took several photos in a row, all of which were quite perfect, basically without retouching, they could be posted directly on the Internet.
Zhu Shu looked at Li Liang with a little admiration and said, "Li Liang, you are quite good at taking pictures, and you are also good at dancing." ”
Wei Dazhi on the side said: "Let me tell you, except for basketball, Li Liang is all on top of one in all other aspects, but it's a pity that Liao, he has to play Raushzi's basketball, and he also fantasizes about entering the NBA, hey~"
Li Liang scolded: "You know a fart! Do you understand the barrel theory? The key to determining how much water a bucket can hold is the shortest one. Basketball is my weakest point, and of course I have to make this shortcoming longer! ”
Bai Xiaoting rolled her eyes when she heard this, and muttered, "Is this how the barrel theory is used?" ”
No matter how the barrel theory is used, in short, the four of them are very happy along the way, and the relationship is much more harmonious.
Wei Dazhi also sighed, why didn't he have in-depth exchanges and understandings when he was in school before, and he only came out to play when he was about to graduate.
When they arrived in Memphis City, it was already bright, Li Liang drove the car to the hotel parking lot he had booked, and the four of them got out of the car and entered the store to open the room.
Wei Dazhi booked two rooms, and after entering the room, Wei Dazhi lay down on the bed, and he was so tired from the day's journey that he didn't want to eat dinner.
Li Liang changed his clothes, as if he was going out, Wei Dazhi asked, "Hey, what are you doing going out?" ”
"I went to the gym, you forgot, I specially asked you to book a hotel with a gym. By the way, there's a basketball stadium nearby, right? ”
"Yes, there is a basketball hall nearby that you can rent. You're not, you're really going to get into the NBA, so hard. ”
"Nonsense, when do you think I'm joking about this kind of thing? Let's go. ”
After speaking, Li Liang went to the hotel's gym.
In the past, in high school and college, Li Liang didn't do much fitness, and Kalipari did not recommend college athletes to do strength training with weights too early, because students' bodies have not fully grown and are prone to injury.
But Li Liang is now 22 years old, and according to his plan, on the one hand, he wants to improve his three-point and defense, and on the other hand, he wants to improve his strength and confrontation ability.
If he wants to enter the NBA, he must show enough immediacy power, after all, his potential cannot be optimistic, so fitness is a must.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the gym, Li Liang actually met Bai Xiaoting, she was wearing sports tights and wanted to come over for a run.
"Why are you here?" The two spoke almost in unison.
"I came for a run, and I ate too much at night." Bai Xiaoting said.
"I'm going to work out, I'm going to the NBA." Li Liangdao.
"Cut, can you still make it to the NBA? You're not Yao Ming. Bai Xiaoting shook Li Liang and got on the treadmill.
"Yo, you still know Yao Ming, I thought you only knew Chanel and LV." Li Liang stretched on the side.
"Don't look down on girls and think they don't understand anything. And I warn you, don't bully Zhu Shu. Bai Xiaoting said.
Li Liang was a little puzzled and asked, "Why did I bully Zhu Shu?" I was supposed to bring her to play, but I didn't want to take you, you ass worm. ”
Bai Xiaoting sneered and said, "I inexplicably invited a girl to go on a graduation trip, but I didn't have other plans, I was just afraid that you would bully her, so I came along." ”
"Cut, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Li Liang stopped arguing with Bai Xiaoting, and began to carry out targeted reinforcement according to the strength training plan.
He decided to start two missions tonight.
Li Liang, who passed Du Xiaoshuai's task at one time, was a little inflated.
