Chapter 129: Muay Thai Gym
"Savadika ......"
At the hotel reception, a smiling girl folded her hands and greeted everyone. She was about twenty-three or fourteen years old, with her hair coiled high, wearing a traditional Thai dress, and the long-sounding word "Ka" was gentle and tactful, which was sweeter than honey.
Wow, beauty!
A funny scene appeared, the brothers were first extremely amazed, and then they cast their eyes to scan people's necks...... Well, I guess I want to find out if there is an Adam's apple at the bottom.
"Distinguished Chinese guests, welcome to Chiang Mai, my name is 'Na Lin', I just answered the phone, and your reserved room is ready."
But if you do business in Thailand, you can't know a few words of Chinese, which is really enough, listening to the proficiency of this girl's pronunciation, daily communication is absolutely no problem. Interpreter Lao Sun immediately greeted and communicated, and Na Lin's posture was very respectful, answering various questions while leading the way.
Jiang Xingchen raised his eyebrows at Xiao Wang: "What's the matter, buddy?" ”
"Uh, what?" Wang's attention was on Qiu Di, but he didn't look at it carefully.
Senior Brother Jiang whispered sheepishly, "According to my experience, this Na Lin is a 100% woman!" ”
Wang Jin couldn't express his emotions, and glared: "Rely on ......"
The Palm House is a two-story wooden building, more like a homestay than a hotel, and there are palm trees planted everywhere, and the green area is astounding. Some of the country's specialty hotels try to create a garden atmosphere, and they are good enough to open the hotel directly in the garden.
"Wow!" "Ahh "Look!"
Woody small buildings, purple parasols, blue deck chairs, green casual coffee tables...... As far as the eye can see, it is still a typical Chiang Mai style, but with so many bright colors put together, it is actually very integrated, and there is no abrupt feeling.
The girl was quite calm, but Meng Meng couldn't stop shouting, marveling at this, marveling at that, and her face was flushed with excitement. There was a fat cat at the intersection in front of the road that stretched out its legs to bask in the sun, its cute eyes lit up, and it ran over to hug people, but the little thing was scared to meow and scream, and it was lifeless everywhere.
The Palm House has an ingenious layout in the shape of an English "Z", and their residence is right around the corner, with a drop-shaped swimming pool not far from the building.
"Oh!"
"Hooray!"
"Oh heaven, this is!"
Everyone cheered!
Wang Jin's room is on the east of the second floor, with about 20 square meters inside, the main color is warm, the light is particularly sufficient, some wooden decorations and furniture are quite ethnic characteristics, and the bed is large and comfortable. After a brief inspection, he found free drinking water in the fridge, a TV with a few Chinese channels, a small balcony and even a view of the pool...... Nothing to say, the conditions are already quite good.
At around 12:40, everyone finally had their first meal in Chiang Mai.
Thai people don't like braised pork and avoid beef, and their eating habits highlight sour, spicy, salty and sweet, with unique flavors: charcoal-grilled pork neck, tom yum soup, crab curry, salt-grilled fish, green papaya salad...... In addition, fruits are abundant here, and those freshly squeezed juices are indispensable, such as strawberry juice, coconut juice, mango juice, apple juice, pomegranate juice...... Dazzling, renovated.
The hotel restaurant environment is very good, but unfortunately the table is relatively small, and everyone has to fight on their own.
The overall feeling of the dish is okay, the tom yum soup (hot and sour shrimp soup) is unexpectedly delicious, the shrimp body is very large, the curry flavor is quite strong, and with high-quality specialty rice, Xiao Wang is dazzled and smiling. When you go to Thailand to play, it would be a pity not to taste fresh juice, Wang has a soft spot for pomegranate juice, and he actually went down three bottles in one go!
Jiang Xingchen watched Wang Jin feast, his expression was extremely envious.
As a small and medium-level boxer, his most difficult daily task is to maintain his weight, with less oil, less sugar, and less food all year round, and he is at most full at each meal, this kind of pain is by no means imaginable by ordinary people.
Teacher Li Dian said: "Take a rest after eating, and I will take you two to familiarize yourself with the venue at about three o'clock. ”
Jiang Xingchen was experienced, he only nodded his head casually, but Wang Jin next to him coughed dryly and spoke.
"Teacher Li, I want to ask you, after this fight, can I go to Banchai's gym and train alone for a while?"
Li Dianyi was stunned and said, "Banchai? That's an old friend. I'm glad you're able to take the initiative to ask for improvement! Well, as long as the invitational tournament is played well, everything is negotiable. ”
Wang Jin haha: "Don't worry, I promise to beat the opponent to death!" ”
Li Dian smiled and said: "But there is one thing, you will have to bear any training expenses, accommodation fees, food expenses or anything at that time." ”
Wang Jin said happily: "Of course there is no problem, how can personal expenses be counted together?" ”
Li Dian thought about it and said: "I don't worry about your kid staying in Thailand alone, let Hou Chao accompany you." Remember, don't cause trouble, don't run around, and make a phone call every day to report the situation! ”
The corners of Wang Jin's eyes twitched when he heard this.
Uh, as for it? Everywhere you go, you have to arrange a prison guard......
……
Thailand is the most prestigious country of Buddhism and the country of fighting that is famous all over the world, with large and small gyms dotted around and can be found anywhere.
Generally speaking, there are only the following types of people who learn boxing in Thailand.
First: Pure tourists.
These kind of heroes don't have any goals at all, they retreat immediately after a shot, they just run to the gym and pretend to take a few photos, so that they can go back and brag about it.
Second: enthusiasts.
"Ticket friends" are not professional enough, practicing purely to strengthen their bodies, and they don't want to get ahead through the competition.
Third: professional fighters.
This type of person is the real "cultivator", who is willing to endure hardship, endure loneliness, and improve his skills at all costs.
Of course, Wang Jin belongs to the third type, and he has come to the right place to "see the world" in Thailand. After the afternoon lunch break, Mr. Li Dian led the two fighters to break through the encirclement at the huge risk of "getting wet", and finally rushed to the "Endeavour" boxing gym in the north of the city.
The gym is set up in a nondescript alley, and there are not even advertising signs, but who knows that the owner of this gym is the former Rajamon Heavy Weight Champion, Muay Thai Championship Champion, two-time Fighter of the Year, and a professional record of more than 300 fights - "The Grinder" Bayu?
Many years ago, Ba Yu fought twice with Sanda King Li Dian in the "Sino-Thai Confrontation Match", and achieved a record of one win and one loss. In this "Asian Famous Players Invitational Tournament", Endeavor Boxing Gym is one of the partners of the column group, and it is also the designated training camp for participating fighters.
Walking through the alley, the space suddenly opened up, and the whole appearance of the gym was finally revealed.
Compared with the Golden Eagle and Warrior experienced by Wang Jin, Endeavor Hall is relatively "backward" and full of simple atmosphere: the whole venue is like a super greenhouse, very similar to the structure of the domestic "vegetable market", with a triangular iron roof on its head, unobstructed on all sides, and the environment is very general and the equipment is very old.
But here's the point, this is a "Ten Nations" legion!
Men, women, children, young children, all colors, all nationalities, all levels, and even a few MMA fighters who have been practicing Jiu-Jitsu hard! The weather was extremely hot, and dozens of fighters were sweating profusely, but none of them were lazy, and everyone was desperately dealing with sandbags, target fighters, and sparring partners, and the sound of blows and shouts was endless......
Wang Jin opened his eyes, where do you usually go to see so many foreigners?
Teacher Li Dian said, "Look, this is where the two of you will be staying for a whole week. ”
Jiang Xingchen said indifferently: "It's good, anyway, it's the same for training." ”
Student Wang carefully felt the temperature and said: "The weather is indeed very hot, I guess I will have to adapt to it for a few days, if you start with a high intensity, your body may not be able to bear it." ”
Li Dian said: "Well, take your time, go, follow me to meet Master Ba Yu......"
