Chapter 70: Wang Lung's Wounds of Memory
Tony's suburban mansion is located in one of the few resorts in the efficiency-conscious city of Chicago.
The Chicago River is the lifeblood of the city, so his fishing grounds are also worth a lot of money.
After resting long enough, Zhang Yi stood up and stretched, as Tony said, he was now refreshed.
In retrospect, since he met Uncle Long, most of his time other than school was spent at the training ground.
At dinner time, there was no big fish caught by Zhang Yi on the table, and there was a raw fish steak in front of him.
"Is this the fish?" Zhang Yi picked up the fork as he said and observed it, and the blood veins on the fish were clearly visible.
The servant came from the side, picked up the igniter, and instantly lit the fish plate.
I saw the intoxicating aroma of the fish steak meat erupting in the beautiful flame.
Zhang Yi's index finger moved, and his saliva flowed out instantly, "Why is it so fragrant?" ”
Tony smiled smugly, "This fish dish is the only fish dish in the world that can be eaten here, so let's try it!" ”
Zhang Yi couldn't wait to pick up the knife and fork and put the fish meat in his mouth, the delicious and tender meat melted in his mouth, and his happiness exploded!
"Whew! Delicious! ”
After a bite of gentle fish meat, Zhang Yi's face seemed to be moistened by the sun, ruddy and shiny.
"Great! Anything else? Zhang Yi, who was eating, asked eagerly.
Tony slapped his hands, and another plate of fish was brought to him.
"That big fish should be able to cut a lot of meat."
Hearing this, Tony shook his head, "Ten pieces." ”
"What about the rest of the parts?"
"Discarded! Only pure things have the meaning of enjoyment. ”
As he spoke, Tony placed a slice of fish in front of him, and the maid lit a fire to cook it for him.
Enjoying the impact of food in his mouth, Zhang Yi's mind was Tony's words, pure?! Isn't it the same with basketball......
"Thank you for your call." Zhang Yi suddenly said this.
Tony was stunned for a moment, then looked at him with a smile, thinking that this kid was not only highly qualified, but also very fast.
He hasn't trained a player for nearly ten years, and he is very happy to meet such a great child as soon as he comes out of the mountain.
After enjoying a big meal, Zhang Yi returned to the bedroom to rest, and Tony also specially explained that he was not allowed to exercise at night, not in any form.
This made Zhang Yi, who was accustomed to jogging before bedtime, uncomfortable.
So he began to wander around the big room until he came into a study-like area with only Tony's oil self-portrait hanging on the wall.
Zhang Yi originally thought that the home of a trainer like Tony would definitely hang photos of countless stars or signed souvenirs and other things, but it was clear that Tony was a minimalist guy.
I briefly flipped through a few books, but Zhang Yi's English level was limited to conversation, and he couldn't understand the highly professional books at all.
When he flipped to a book on human knee repair, a photo fell out of the book.
Zhang Yi picked it up and looked at it, his eyes widened in surprise, "This person... It's a young Uncle Long..."
The people in the photo are young Tony and Wang Lung, and from their stiff smiles, it is clear that there must be a story behind it.
"Oh? I've been looking for this photo for a long time, and it turns out that it's stuck in a book. ”
Tony's old but powerful voice came from behind Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi looked at him suspiciously, and handed him the photo, "Wang Long is my enlightenment coach, did you know each other back then?" ”
Tony looked at the photo and was silent for a moment, "Want to have a drink?" ”
Zhang Yi nodded. The two sat down, and the maid quickly brought hot tea.
"Wang Lung came to me the next month after he announced his retirement... I'll never forget that man's eyes..."
As he spoke, Tony's face darkened.
Zhang Yi listened carefully, because it might be related to Uncle Long's revenge.
"He came to me in a wheelchair and asked if I could help him get back up... However, this is not possible..."
"When Wang Lung came here, his left knee had been completely removed......"
Zhang Yi was stunned, he couldn't understand why Uncle Long retired in a hurry, and was his knee injury really serious enough to be completely removed?
"I don't know why the doctor in Los Angeles is so determined, but in my opinion, if he keeps his kneecap, he really has a chance to stand up without the help of a mechanical prosthesis... It's a shame..."
Tony's words were like a knife inserted into Zhang Yi's heart, who the hell is it?! Is this a frame-up? But who would frame a basketball star!
Countless questions were entangled in Zhang Yi's mind, only to hear a bang, and the teacup in his hand was pinched into pieces by Zhang Yi's palm.
"I know what's going on in your head... Actually, after so many years, I can't figure it out, it's just that Wang Lung was silent back then, and no one knows what he went through..."
After speaking, Tony asked the maid to bring Zhang Yi a handkerchief.
Wiping the hot tea on his hands, Zhang Yi's eyes were empty and terrifying, Tony saw it in his eyes, thinking that Wang Lung had the same eyes back then......
When Zhang Yi came back to his senses, he didn't say anything but signaled to Tony that he would go back to the room first.
Along the way, his mind kept flashing Uncle Long's figure, as well as Uncle Long's left leg, which would make a mechanical noise whenever he walked.
Anger filled Zhang Yi's chest, but he realized that it was not yet time for revenge.
Because whoever framed Wang Lung, that person must have great power.
Wang Long couldn't change his fate back then, and Zhang Yi knew that he had to keep climbing up the basketball road.
Only in this way can he accumulate enough strength to become a gun in that person's hands when Uncle Long needs him.
The big bed here is comfortable enough, but Zhang Yi can't sleep.
By dawn, the servant had knocked on the door of the guest room, and he had already taken a shower and was in good spirits.
At around five o'clock in the morning, Tony put on a fisherman's hat again, and also prepared a pair of large swimming trunks for Zhang Yi.
"Going fishing today?" Zhang Yi asked suspiciously.
Tony laughed, "That's right!" Aim for fish that are more than two meters tall! ”
His words made Zhang Yi feel speechless, thinking to himself, isn't this person just an old man who likes fishing.
Seeing Zhang Yi's questioning look, Tony asked, "What are you here for?" ”
"Fitness?" He replied.
"Listen, I'm not trying to teach you how to play, and I don't know that, you can choose to go fishing with me, or work out at the gym here......"
Zhang Yi replied without hesitation, "Of course I'm going fishing with you!" ”
Although he didn't know if fishing would improve his fitness, he remembered that Wacker had told him to train with Tony, and Zhang Yi knew that this person was worth trusting.
The two of them took the center of the fishing ground in front of the dinghy, and the fish food prepared this time was much larger than yesterday......
It seems to be serious, Zhang Yi took a piece of fresh meat the size of a palm and said, a big fish of more than two meters? Isn't it really a shark?
Training starts on the water!
