Yan Yufeng's heart

The sky is already a little gray, and the players on the Huyun Stadium are gradually getting a little thin, Songzi is still practicing alone, and he is used to leaning back, and the ball paused in his hand and then rolled out, drawing a very large arc and falling into the basket.

"Smack!" A crisp applause rang out behind him, and Songzi wiped the sweat from his face, turned his head to look, and couldn't help but sigh.

Yan Yufeng stood behind with a smile, looked at Songzi and said, "Long time no see!" ”

Matsuko returned to normal, smiled, and said, "Well, long time no see!" ”

After Yan Yufeng got out of the Flying Arena, he walked around the street alone, his mind was full of the figure of No. 15, the elegant dunk, and the lightning-fast break, if it was me, could I prevent him? Yan Yufeng asked himself.

How would I know? Suddenly, Yan Yufeng felt a sense of discouragement in his heart, since he started to pick all the courses in Hanshan a year ago, he has been recognized as the king of football in Hanshan, and he has never thought about failure in his heart, the phrase "I am the best" often appears in his heart, but when he saw the performance of No. 1 and No. 15, he was very excited, but he also felt a little more vaguely empty. What does that feel like? Afraid? No! I've never been scared.

A bus drove by, Yan Yufeng immediately avoided it, looked up and saw that it was a No. 9 bus, glanced at the words of the Huyun Community, and his heart moved: I haven't been there for a long time, I remember that I once said that I was going to go there to learn from the pine nuts and leaned back, looked at the sky, anyway, it's fine, and it's boring to be at home alone.

Thinking of this, Yan Yufeng stretched out his hand to stop a taxi and rushed home.

I want to learn as soon as possible, I can't be defeated by others! Yan Yufeng shouted to himself.

"Remember our agreement?" Yan Yufeng walked over, bent down and grabbed the basketball that rolled to his feet, and said.

"Agreed?" Matsuko thought for a moment and asked.

"This!" Yan Yufeng raised the basketball, made a backward shooting action, and blinked his eyes.

"Oh! You're serious! Matsuko smiled after suddenly realizing it.

"I don't really like jokes!" Yan Yufeng threw the spinning ball basketball, and the basketball flipped upwards and fell back into Yan Yufeng's hand.

"Hey, hey!" Songzi smiled and said, "Why do you have to learn this if you have such a height!" ”

Yan Yufeng threw the ball out at will, the ball rolled and fell into the basket, looking at the basketball playing on the ground, Yan Yufeng showed a solemn expression on his face, and said, "Because I want to be better!" ”

Songzi was stunned for a moment, recalling Yan Yufeng's words just now, walked to the basket, grabbed the ball, and said, "Do you want to learn now?" ”

"Yes! Time is running out! If you don't mind, I hope to be with you these days! Yan Yufeng nodded and replied.

"Running out of time?" Matsuko asked.

Yan Yufeng glanced at the sunset that had already set on the West Mountain, and said leisurely: "The league is about to start!" ”

"Oh!" Although Songzi still didn't understand a little, in the face of such a frank treatment of the new ball king in this cold mountain area, he still readily agreed: "Okay, anyway, I live alone, if you don't mind, let's have a good chat today!" ”

Yan Yufeng didn't hesitate, nodded and said, "Okay, I also live alone, it's the same wherever I sleep!" ”

Songzi laughed, beckoned, and said, "Come on!" ”

"First of all, don't always think about leaning back, which means that you don't deliberately go backwards to shoot, this is called looking like a god!" Matsuko explained with a basketball.

"It should be thrown from nature, take off lightly, slowly stretch the whole body, especially the waist, the upper body slowly lean back, the feet should be naturally extended, the front and back should be opened, and the whole soles of the feet should be arched! Oh, that's it! Songzi said this, picked up the ball and jumped the ball easily, leaned back naturally, tilted his head down, and held the ball with his right hand, protected the ball with his left hand, raised it to the front and above, paused, and then dialed the ball out.

The ball is rowed out at a very slow pace and hollowed into the basket.

"Come on, you try, don't worry, take it easy, just like you normally pitch!" Songzi walked over, picked up the ball, and passed it to Yan Yufeng.

Yan Yufeng nodded, caught the ball, pondered carefully, lifted the ball, his body obviously had a feeling of leaning back, the ball flew out of his hand, and the three did not stick to the ground.

"You're too deliberate, take it easy, as usual, remember, the wrist has to be forced, but you have to force it gently, don't force it suddenly, it will make the ball lose its crosshairs." Songzi shook his head, took the ball and passed it to Yan Yufeng.

Yan Yufeng nodded, took the ball, snapped a few times, and threw it again.

The ball landed again, and Yan Yufeng shook his head.

Songzi encouraged: "It's okay, it's like this at first, take your time, let your hands get used to exerting force like this, remember that the whole person must relax, don't think that shooting like this is intentional, let yourself believe that shooting like this is very normal, let the heart get used to it, and feel it!" ”

Yan Yufeng took the ball again, gently played with the basketball, jumped up slowly, leaned back slightly, and the ball rolled out after a pause in his hand, landing on the basket and bouncing down.

"Okay, that's it!" Matsuko slapped his palm and said encouragingly.

"Let's do it!" Yan Yufeng opened his hand to ask for the fairway.

The stadium gradually became less crowded, and the headlights on the telephone poles on the sidelines finally flashed, and after a while, they finally brightened.

Under the illumination of the lights, two long figures were printed upside down on the court, and there were constant shouts and applause.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the temperature was gradually cooling, but Yan Yufeng's face was covered with sweat, and he threw the ball out again, and the ball bounced back a few times on the basket and fell into the basket.

"Good! Take a break! Holding the ball, Matsuko wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

"You rest first, I'll practice again!" Yan Yufeng opened his hand to pass the ball, and walked into the basket again, Songzi said, the backward jump shot came slowly, first from the position close to the basket, and slowly moved out.

Songzi sat on the ground very casually, holding the ground with both hands, looking at Yan Yufeng, who was contemplative after throwing once, and the admiration in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He is a very hard-working person, I have seen it for the first time, I didn't expect a Hanshan ball king who is worshiped everywhere to be so serious in order to learn to lean back.

He was not proud that he was already so powerful, but more humble to learn what he had not mastered, if it were me, would I still be so hard? Maybe I've been intoxicated with being sung for a long time, but what is he thinking? "Because I want to be better!" Yan Yufeng's low and firm voice sounded in his ears, Songzi shook his head and looked at Yan Yufeng, Yan Yufeng threw another ball, the ball did not touch the basket and landed, he didn't say a word, walked over and took the ball and walked back to the original position, thought about it, made a gesture to shoot again, thought about it again, picked up the ball and jumped up and threw it.

Songzi suddenly remembered that he was laughed at when he first started to shoot backwards in the game, and he himself knew that leaning back is not something that can be learned generally, in fact, he thinks that leaning back is a nirvana in basketball, a weapon that makes the opponent invincible, and it is the safest way to score.

"Are you thirsty? I'm going to buy water! Matsuko exclaimed.

Yan Yufeng turned his head and said, "No need, you go buy it, I'll practice again!" ”

"Let's go together, and by the way, I'll tell you about your mistake just now!" Matsuko waved his hand and said.

Yan Yufeng paused, finally nodded, and said, "Okay, rest!" ”

Songzi smiled secretly, if he didn't say this, he would definitely not stop, got up, and walked with Yan Yufeng to a place with lights in the distance.

"Boss, two bottles of Coke!" Matsuko said while taking the money.

Taking the Coke handed by Songzi, Yan Yufeng said: "I should have paid for it, but I must ask for it next time!" ”

Songzi fell, laughed, lifted the cover, and said, "You also care about this!" ”

"Hey, hey!" Yan Yufeng now feels that Songzi is a bold person.

The two of them sat down on the stone bench in front of the store with Coke, and Matsuko took a sip of Coke and said, "How do you feel?" ”

Yan Yufeng thought for a moment and said, "I always feel that I can't master the correct way to exert power, it's too difficult!" ”

Songzi nodded and said, "I also studied for three years before I was a little careful, so I learned it so quickly, haha, Jordan also started to use it frequently in his early thirties!" ”

Yan Yufeng nodded and said, "It seems that I'm a little anxious!" ”

"Why, I always feel that you want to learn all at once and meet a strong player?"

Yan Yufeng sipped a coke, recalled the agile skills of No. 15 in his mind, and said with a sigh: "There are so many masters in Beiyang!" ”

"Hey, hey! That's natural, if you think about it, this is the base of the provincial team, I remember that many players of the provincial team are selected here, and the basketball atmosphere in Beiyang is much stronger than in other places! Matsuko said.

Yan Yufeng nodded and said, "One of my parents in my school is from the provincial team, I think he has been influenced by basketball very early!" ”

"Is he the one you want to deal with?" Matsuko asked tentatively.

"It's not him!" Yan Yufeng shook his head, "It's another person, he makes me feel a sense of oppression, I haven't felt like this for a long time!" It's amazing! ”

Songzi loosened his legs to his heart's content, and said, "There is no progress without oppression!" ”

Yan Yufeng paused and said, "You're right!" ”

"I think I started to like basketball or was played by a person, and then he scolded me jokingly: You are a short man, basketball is not played by you, haha, just say a word to him, I practiced hard for a year, and beat him hard, haha! If it weren't for him, maybe he wouldn't know what basketball is! Songzi said this, looked at the basketball at his feet, and laughed.

"I remember on the first day of the Lunar New Year, watching the sixth high school "Power Cup" basketball league in Beiyang, I saw a No. 10 player smashing the ball into the basket and standing on the court and yelling loudly, and then the audience stood and applauded him unwillingly, at that moment, I suddenly liked basketball! Yan Yufeng said as if reminiscing, with a yearning look on his face.

Songzi looked sideways at Yan Yufeng, raised his eyebrows, and said: "In fact, everyone's reasons for playing basketball are different, but the feeling of liking is the same, on the court, when you throw a ball, watch it fall off the basket, and row across the net, you will feel a huge sense of accomplishment stirring in your chest, the loud cheers next to you, and the fanatical eyes are so strong, I like this feeling, in this calm world, only this can make you feel who you are!" You stand on the pitch, you are the god of the pitch world, the god of victory! ”

Yan Yufeng looked at the serious pine nuts with surprise and excitement, and said after a while: "I didn't expect you to think so deeply!" ”

"Oh, really?" Songzi returned to normal and chuckled.

Yan Yufeng picked up the ball, spun around a few times, looked at the basketball flying on his fingers, and muttered: "The god who dominates victory!" ”

"It's been three years, and my efforts have finally been recognized by the whole Huyun, I am the king here, and with me, the team members are not afraid, and they will not think about whether they will lose, because in their hearts, I am God!" Songzi suddenly became excited, and continued: "I'm not tall, and I don't bounce well, but my heart is arrogant, since I was a child, I don't admit defeat, I have to be the best at what I do, and the same is true for basketball, I worked hard and won the respect of others with my own hands, in Huyun District, who doesn't know my name!" Speaking of which, Songzi stood up, looked at Yan Yufeng and said: "Friend, your talent far surpasses mine, and you have been with you twice, I feel that you are extraordinary, extraordinary in basketball, work hard, play your own piece of the world, it turns out that you are the king of the cold mountain area, then now you have to pursue a higher goal, the king of Beiyang, the king of the whole Jiangsu Province, cross one goal after another, make yourself stronger and stronger!" Friend, can you do it? Do you have such ambitions? ”

Yan Yufeng didn't know what kind of impact Songzi's words just now would have on him in the future, but he did feel that his heart was gradually excited, and the original unclear goal suddenly became so clear, right! Do your best! Beiyang Ball King, Jiangsu Ball King, and even further, what is the 15th? He is just a stone on my journey, and I will step over him and move towards a greater goal!

Yan Yufeng stood up, raised his head and drank the coke, then threw it on the ground, picked up the basketball, and said, "Let's go, let's continue to practice, in order to be stronger, work hard!" ”

"Let's go, fight for us to be stronger!" Songzi laughed and walked side by side with Yan Yufeng towards the brightly lit court.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Have you washed it?" Matsuko shouted to the bathroom.

"Right now!" Yan Yufeng shouted loudly inside.

"Oh my God, I didn't expect you to take such a long bath, I didn't let you if I knew it, I washed it first! Dizzy, it's been almost an hour since you washed, why are you more annoying than a woman! Songzi felt that his body was slimy and very uncomfortable, looked at his watch, and shouted depressedly.

"Alright, alright!" Yan Yufeng walked out in his pants and answered while covering his hair with a towel.

"I'm so convinced!" Matsuko hurriedly picked up a change of clothes, soap and shampoo and rushed into the bathroom and shouted.

"Hehe, I usually wash at home for an hour and a half!" Yan Yufeng said casually.

"Boom!" It seemed to be the sound of someone falling to the ground, and after half a sound, the voice of the pine nut sounded: "Don't take a bath here with me in the future, I can't afford to pay the water bill!" ”

Yan Yufeng shrugged his shoulders, took a few unwashed clothes away from the sofa, stood down, and said, "Why is your home so dirty?" ”

"Damn, this is called a man's room!" Matsuko shouted in the bathroom.

“``````````````！” Speechless for a while, Yan Yufeng said: "But it can't be so messy!" ”

"Look at how well you play with men, why are you so feminine in life, men, it's natural to mess around!"

Yan Yufeng sighed, didn't refute anything more, picked up the table that he didn't know what was piled up, took out a basketball time and space, the cover was a poster of Kobe, and couldn't help but get excited, and said, "You like Kobe Bryant too!" ”

"I like it, I like Iverson!" Songzi's voice sounded behind Yan Yufeng, Yan Yufeng was startled, turned his head to look, opened his mouth wide and said, "You ''''''''''' you finished washing?" ”

"Nonsense, naturally the washing is finished, and the bath is not giving birth, does it take so long like you?"

Yan Yufeng looked at the pine nuts with a look that he washed them clean without believing them, and said, "I'm really convinced of you!" ”

"Alas, I just served you, look at you like this, it's really thoughtful, come to me to learn ball, what to bring, panties, towels, shower gel, shampoo, why are you such a woman!" Songzi looked at Yan Yufeng's bag of things, and frowned in admiration.

Yan Yufeng smiled hesitantly and said, "I'm used to being clean, and I don't like to use other people's things anywhere!" ”

Matsuko sat on a sofa full of clothes, took out a pack of cigarettes from under the table, took out one, and said, "You don't smoke!" ”

Yan Yufeng shook his head and said: "Smoking is harmful to health, and besides, we can't smoke when we play, and we shouldn't even drink alcohol!" ”

Songzi smiled indifferently and said, "Maybe you're right, but like us who play wild ball, we usually don't have any big moves, unlike you, we have to have high-intensity competitions, which is naturally not like this!" ”

Yan Yufeng looked at Songzi's somewhat lonely expression and said, "You also yearn for the professional league?" ”

"Who doesn't yearn for it, that's where the true meaning of basketball is reflected!" Matsuko took a puff on his cigarette and laughed.

"Yes!" Yan Yufeng glanced at the poster of Kobe Bryant in his hand and said, "Yes, that's the country of our dreams!" ”

"Why, don't you tell you you want to be in the NBA!" Matsuko laughed.

Yan Yufeng raised his head, looked at the smiling Songzi seriously, and said: "Now the NBA only has our Chinese center, although it is praised as a moving Great Wall, but I always feel that there is something missing, why don't we have excellent guards in China in the NBA?" ”

Song Zi fell, shrugged his shoulders and said: "China's current basketball system restricts the emergence of good guards, there is no way!" ”

Yan Yufeng snorted and said: "One day, our Chinese basketball will make the whole world break out in a cold sweat, and we will fight against the ancestor of basketball, the United States!" ”

"You don't have a fever, do you?" Songzi stretched out to touch Yan Yufeng's forehead.

"It's gone!" Yan Yufeng tilted his head sideways, dodging Songzi's hand.

"Dizzy, I just urged you to work hard and be the king of Beiyang, how could you want to go to an alien planet?"

"What are you talking about?" Yan Yufeng was a little angry.

"Isn't it? If you want to compete with the United States, that's impossible, think about the natural qualities of those black people and the basketball environment, how do we catch up? People are giants, we are still children, we must be realistic, step by step! ”

"That's natural, but you also have to have a big goal, do your best, that's what you say! Down with the United States, let's make China the number one in the world! Yan Yufeng clenched his hands.

"Next life!" Matsuko glanced at his watch and said, "Understand that you don't have to go to class?" ”

"You're ''''''''''!" Yan Yufeng looked at Songzi, who was not excited, and was a little speechless with anger, shook his head and said, "Tomorrow is Sunday, naturally there is no class!" ”

Songzi stood up and snuffed out the cigarette, threw it on the ground, patted Yan Yufeng, and said: "I know you are angry, do you think this is too unambitious, but I want to say that it takes too much time to beat the United States in basketball, we can only take our time, to learn, to learn, to learn all the good things in the United States, and then turn over to defeat them!" ”

"Now that you know, why didn't you care like this just now?" Yan Yufeng turned his head and said with a slight deflation.

"Haha, take your time, by the way, how old are you!" Matsuko suddenly remembered something and asked.

“16！ Why do you ask this? Yan Yufeng was puzzled.

"How tall are you?" Matsuko suddenly became interested, stood down again and asked.

"One meter eighty-seven!" Yan Yufeng said.

"Yes, it seems that you may grow taller, if you grow to 1.95 meters, then you may be able to make some contributions to Chinese basketball!" Matsuko laughed.

"Cut '''''''!" Yan Yufeng didn't believe it, but he immediately felt a little excited in his heart: Yes, he is only 16 years old, and he should still grow taller, I heard that many male voices are still growing in their third year of high school, and now I am 2 centimeters short of 1.9 meters, maybe there is really hope!

"What are you lying to?" Pine nut road.

"What if I did grow that tall!" Yan Yufeng said.

"If you really grow taller, then you want to climb to a higher level, if you continue to work hard, the technique is comprehensive, and the height is again, maybe you have the opportunity to enter the provincial youth team, or even the national youth team! That's where you contribute to the country! The more Matsuko spoke, the more excited he became, and he shouted with his eyebrows fluttering.

"Is that an exaggeration?" Yan Yufeng was skeptical.

"Boy, you'll have hope!" Matsuko laughed.

Provincial Youth Team! The national youth team? Oh my God, I never thought about it! Yan Yufeng shouted in his heart.

"Boy, come on, but it's bedtime, I have to sleep, by the way, will you sleep with me?" Matsuko covered his eyes and said a little sleepily.

"I won't sleep with you, I'll sleep here, I'm not used to sleeping with others, by the way, I'll help you tidy up your room!" Yan Yufeng stood up, looked around and said.

Songzi looked at Yan Yufeng with wide eyes, and said after a while: "You are a real woman, my God, I like to do housework more than my horse!" If you were a woman, I would chase you! ”

"Die!" Yan Yufeng waved his hand and said with a frown.

"Haha''''''!" Songzi walked to his room, and when he closed the door, he said: "Tidy up, it seems that there are still a few dragons, tigers and leopards on the sofa, if you want to see yourself, go and see it!" ”

Dragon, tiger and leopard? What? Yan Yufeng doubted.

The sound of the door closing sounded, Yan Yufeng glanced at the messy room, frowned and said to himself: "I didn't expect that I would have to volunteer here, cough!" Who calls himself clean?

I don't want to, hurry up and tidy up, I have to practice tomorrow! Yan Yufeng thought about taking action immediately.

Songzi was lying on his bed and faintly heard a voice from next door, shook his head and hummed: Simple boy!

Yan Yufeng's heart
