At half past five in the morning, the sky on the Pearl River was just dawning.

As soon as Liu Yun woke up from his deep sleep, there was a knock on the door outside the gatehouse.

Liu Yun rubbed his sleepy eyes and pushed the door open. Outside the door stood his physical trainer Zhang Yuanshan.

Zhang Yuanshan is dressed in sportswear and has a stopwatch around his neck. Holding a bottle of milk in his right hand. In the left hand, he holds a slip. The list lists Liu Yun's training items today.

Zhang Yuanshan stuffed the milk to Liu Yun: "Hurry up and drink it." Immediately after drinking, go on a 3,000-meter aerobic endurance run! ”

Liu Yun was stunned for a moment. The so-called devil's training, is this the beginning?

Liu Yun drank the milk and followed Zhang Yuanshan to a highway by the sea. Zhang Yuanshan rode a bicycle and looked at the stopwatch: "Okay, now let's start today's first training, 3,000 meters of aerobic endurance running!" Begin! ”

Liu Yun obeyed the order and began to run on the road. Zhang Yuanshan followed closely on his bicycle.

At this time, the morning sun has just risen above the horizon. The air by the sea was fresh, and the warm sea breeze blew on Liu Yun's face. Liu Yun is in a good mood, this is simply the plot of the movie "Chariot of Fire", the protagonist is running training on the picturesque seaside.

Liu Yun adjusted his breathing and ran excitedly. Occasionally, he glanced at the sea and the rising sun beside the road.

However, his leisure did not last long. After a thousand meters, he was already running out of breath. The steps of the legs also became heavy.

Zhang Yuanshan had a black face and shouted behind him on a bicycle: "What are you doing?" How did you slow down? It's only a kilometer! Speed! Speed! Do you still want to play in the Chinese League? If you want to play in Huajia, you have to be willing to endure hardships! If you can't hold on to the 3,000 meters, you might as well go back to Handong to be your cleaner! ”

Liu Yun now finally knows why others call Zhang Yuanshan the head of the Devil Sect! When this old guy arrives at training, it's like a different person. has simply changed from a kind and kind old man to a ruthless old landlord!

After 1,500 meters, Liu Yun's legs were a little unbearable.

Zhang Yuanshan shouted: "Persistence, persistence!" Speed! We're halfway through the 3,000 meters! How can anyone quit the game after kicking a ball at half time? If the manager doesn't make changes, you have to stick on the field even if you're tired, understand? Keep up with my bike and don't lose to a seventy-year-old man! ”

Zhang Yuanshan rode his bicycle around Liu Yun. Liu Yun gritted his teeth and increased his speed. Sweat poured down his forehead.

Huhai head coach Zhao Qiyou once said to Liu Yun that everyone has an unknown side. Zhang Yuanshan, an old guy in his sixties and seventies, is an American country music lover. He has a speaker on the right side of his bike. He pedaled the bicycle hard, stared at Liu Yun, and said, "Okay, come up, come up to the state, come to some music." ”

Bob Dylan's "Answers in the Wind" song came from the speakers: "How many roads must a man walk down." Before they call him a man？ How many seas must a white dove sail. Before she sleeps in the sand？ How many times must the cannon balls fly. Before they‘re forever banned？ The answer， my friend， is blowing in the wind!“ (How many journeys does a person have to walk to be called a real man?) How many seas does a white dove have to fly over to sleep in the dunes? How many times does it take for a cannonball to skim the sky before it can be banned forever. Answer, my friend, in the wind. ）

Playing music during training is Zhang Yuanshan's innovation in training.

Liu Yun had never studied English and did not know what the lyrics meant. His legs didn't seem to be able to take the next step. And yet he persisted. The melodious singing voice sounded, and he said to himself, "Just think of every next step as the last step!" ”

Liu Yun's complexion turned from white to red, his breathing was short, and the beads of sweat left on his forehead even fell from his eyelids to his eyes.

Hang on! Hang on! He cheered himself up.

Zhang Yuanshan rode a bicycle and shouted at the side: "Yes, that's it!" Liu Yun! Who says you can't play in a professional league at forty-five?! Who said that forty-five years old is middle-aged and elderly?! It's time to play chess and poker?! Run! Keep running! Keep it up! And the last kilometer! Run, keep running! ”

Zhao Qiyou once told the players in Huhai Dongxing that after people were seriously injured on the battlefield, they would be in severe pain at first. Then you will fall into numbness.

Liu Yun is numb now! It was as if he had lost sensation in his legs. It's just running mechanically. The vision of his eyes was obscured by the sweat left behind, and he could only vaguely see Zhao Qiyou's bicycle in front of him. Gradually, he couldn't even hear Zhao Qiyou's hoarse shouting clearly. You can only hear your own breathing.

He said to himself: Run, Liu Yun! Zhang Yuanshan is right, how can anyone retire after kicking a ball at half time? As long as the manager doesn't change, you have to keep going! Life is a ball game, the forty-five-year-old has just reached halftime, for the sake of her daughter Xiaoyan, for those who have helped you, persevere!

In the last 500 meters, Liu Yun persevered with his own extraordinary will.

Zhang Yuanshan glanced at the electronic meter tied to his wrist, and suddenly he slowed down his cycling: "Okay, slow down." Speed down! Right! ”

Liu Yun slowed his pace.

Zhang Yuanshan got out of the car, pushed the car and said to Liu Yun: "Okay, don't run, go!" Walk slowly! Right! ”

After walking more than 50 meters, Zhang Yuanshan said to Liu Yun: "Stop!" The aerobic endurance run is over! ”

Hearing the word "end", Liu Yun sat on the ground. He lay on his back and glanced at the rising sun on the seashore.

Zhang Yuanshan put down the bicycle, walked to Liu Yun's side, and massaged his calves: "This is the first time you have run aerobic endurance in so many years, right?" Do you feel like your body is no longer your own? It doesn't matter, it's the first time. In a month's time, I'm sure the aerobic endurance run will be a piece of cake for you! ”

Liu Yun wanted to speak, but the sound of heavy breathing made him unable to open his mouth.

After resting on the ground for ten minutes, Liu Yun felt his soul come back. He wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Zhang, Zhang Lao." After these 3,000 meters, the only feeling I have is that the parts on my body are not my own. ”

Zhang Yuanshan smiled slyly: "Three thousand meters? Haha, the physical training standard of C5, aerobic endurance training is 4,000 meters! You've just run a full 4,000 kilometre aerobic endurance distance. ”

Liu Yun was shocked: "Four thousand meters? Didn't you say it's 3,000 meters? ”

Zhang Yuanshan said with a smile: "If I don't tell you three thousand meters, I'm afraid you won't be able to persevere!" ”

Zhang Yuanshan got up and ordered Liu Yundao: "Get up and walk back to the training base slowly!" After breakfast, it's time for the next workout! ”

Liu Yun got up, Zhang Yuanshan pushed the bicycle, and the two walked towards the training base.

The loudspeaker on which the bicycle hung came the song "The Answer Floats in the Wind": "How many years must a mountain exist? Before it is washed to the see。 How many years can some people exist？ Before they‘re allowed to be free. How many times can a man turn his head? And pretend that he just doesn‘t see。 The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind" (How many years does it take for a mountain to be washed into the sea?) How many years does it take for a person to survive before they can be free? How many times does a person have to turn their head before they can pretend they don't see anything? Answer, my friend, it floats in the wind. ）
