The game ended with the main team winning without any suspense. Under the watchful eyes, there could be no unreasonable miracles. Chu Yunsheng followed the tacit understanding with the guardian and Jacob's own insistence, and did not do anything too great. An outrageous thing, but even so, Jacob stole the show!
People sympathize with the weak, especially when the difference in strength between the two teams is too big. Just from the size point of view, it is obvious that the main force bullies the substitutes, which is an "unfair" game. However, this is the training game, in order to make the main force more competitive. Good training and coordination will not be deliberately broken up and reorganized. Such training is meaningless.
Therefore, more people actually want to see the sparring team play better.
Jacob's outstanding performance satisfied the audience's psychology. Perhaps with his performance today, if he were placed on the main team, he would not be particularly conspicuous, but on the weak substitute team, he would stand up like a chicken head!
He never gave up and protected the ball again and again, fell down and got up again and again, risked his life to knock over the bear brothers again and again, accelerated to get rid of the ace tiger of the main team, and galloped across the entire green field, blocking people and killing people. Buddha.
Although the black-faced coach Gru still stubbornly insisted that Jacob was never suitable to be a real rugby player, he could not deny that when the game went into the second half, when the training team members bombarded the main players indiscriminately, it was miserable For a moment, when Jacob, the only counterattacker, single-handedly charged into the main wolf pack like a lone hero again and again, the whole place was boiling, and everyone in the audience burst into waves for him. Huge crowds of people.
When Jacob was injured, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and even his mouth was bloodshot, but he still refused to give up the weak counterattack. When he almost single-handedly challenged the entire main team without a single player behind him, he charged again and again, and was beaten like a arrogant man by the tall main team. While pinned to the grass, he still fought back unyieldingly, with the dignity of a substitute and sparring partner for many years. Fighting back, even if his body was shaking and he was about to faint on the spot, he still fought back high-spirited and desperately!
Just to score a point!
Yes. Just to get one point, with such a huge gap in strength, the sparring team members couldn't even get a point.
At the beginning, Jacob was encouraged by Chu Yunsheng, perhaps for a place at the University of Pennsylvania. Maybe it was to show something to Emily, maybe it was to be coquettish, but in the end, it was all gone.
Time and time again, he comforted the team members who had been training with them for many years, encouraged them to muster up the courage, shouted with them, and realized the desire to play a real game on the court as a substitute for many years, not for proof or performance, but just for the sake of proof and performance. For the wish that has been in my heart for many years.
He knows better than Chu Yunsheng. Even Bigelow knows that this may be his last football game. Even in college, he will be eliminated and will never have the chance to play again. Therefore, today is his only and last green field, so , he insisted. Let yourself never forget today in this life.
Except for those substitute teammates who share his passion for rugby and are willing to serve as coaches for many years, no one can truly understand his mood at this moment, including Chu Yunsheng and coach Gru. Therefore, they are crazy, they are in tears, and they are fighting for a point!
Just to score a point!
When Jacob was dragged down by a bunch of main players and was only one step away from scoring a touchdown, he struggled to crawl madly and desperately. Everyone's hearts were clenched, even the eldest cousin Niles, who came to pick up girls under the guise of a pretense, was attracted, and his heartbeats were beating together with Ashley's and the entire Will family.
However, the reality is so cruel. The final whistle blew before Jacob was only a little away from the touchdown!
Chu Yunsheng originally wanted to help him, but he refused. In fact, from the second half on, Jacob has been relying on his own strength to fight.
The whistle echoed on the green field, but there were no cheers of victory. The audience was silent, and the winning main players also silently looked at the sparring partners they usually looked down upon...
Jacob knelt on the end line and shouted to the sky. The unwillingness, pain, loss, and farewell at this moment... were all vented at this moment.
The sparring substitutes cried, and so did the Will family. People in the audience covered their mouths and their eyes were wet. They understood that a young man’s dedication, a young man’s efforts, a young man’s green dream, so far, with such a cruel Way over.
Just to score a point, but not get it!
Maybe, he will grow up from now on, travel through Wall Street, and become a leader in another field. Maybe, he will have a child with the same dream in the future, maybe... But at this moment, there are too many young people in him. Memories and sorrows of the time.
The applause gradually sounded, from small to large, and gradually gathered into a river, and finally it was deafening!
Cousin Nils remembered the real purpose of his trip, ran to the railing, waved a small flag, and sang a low song for his dear cousin with a "rich" voice where Asher could definitely see it. Inspiring songs...
Jacob is today's hero. Although it was a bit tragic and he was finally carried into the school infirmary, Coach Gru, who was full of anger, still urgently interviewed Jacob's parents and expressed some kind of forced passion. ——Ba Yi was always staring behind him.
Before Seina and Jerry could get over the sadness from Jacob's yelling, they suddenly received a huge surprise from Coach Gru. After being stunned, they thanked each other repeatedly and said that they would comply with the school's request and leave for Philadelphia as soon as possible. Let Jacob visit and learn about the future university before applying for admission. For this reason, Seina Will said that the whole family will go back to celebrate Jacob.
They cast their grateful gazes on the unsuspecting Aixier, which made Ba Yi in the corner sneer, but there was nothing they could do.
Ba Yi comforted himself, as long as Chu Yunsheng knew about this kind of thing.
As a result, he originally wanted to see Chu Yunsheng in person, but in the infirmary, he saw Jacob who had received the good news. He took the confused Aixier's little hand and said sincerely: "Thank you very much. Got it!"
Of course, although he was a little rough and arrogant, it didn't mean he wasn't attentive. He knew it was Jacob and not Chu Yunsheng, but he still felt uncomfortable somewhere...
Jacob didn't see Ba Yi, so naturally Chu Yunsheng couldn't see him, but Chu Yunsheng knew that this matter had nothing to do with Ai Xier, and if he thought about it carefully, he could guess what happened to Ba Yi.
It's just that he has some doubts. He can roughly guess what the alienation is. But is the black-faced coach who is as burly as a hill also his accomplice?
After Jacob finished playing this game, things in Harlem Town were basically settled. Now that Seina decided to leave the family to Philadelphia as soon as possible, the safety worries were solved. And the battle like a dragon's den and a tiger's den is about to begin, and Jacob's road will be even more difficult than today.
At night, when Jacob fell into a deep sleep, Chu Yunsheng woke up and stood alone at the window. Looking at the dim street lights on the street.
Since it was stored in Jacob's body, the black energy needed to maintain the zero-dimensional space has been slightly reduced, giving him the opportunity to slowly accumulate more pure black energy. When he went to Philadelphia, he wanted to kill vampires and make up for his death. He delayed For such a long time, in addition to allowing Jacob to enjoy the last family life, the more important thing is to gather enough black energy.
There was one thing he didn't tell Jacob. He might not die for a while, but Jacob probably would.
He didn't know how many people there were in the Vampire Clan, and he didn't even know how many people came from Europe. On Earth, he had powerful force, but he also had obvious shortcomings.
He could not control Jacob's body freely, and the time to obtain the body was also very short. This was one of the reasons. Secondly, his lethality comes entirely from black energy and material fragments, and the material fragments are equivalent to his consciousness, every time he uses them. All will affect the zero dimension, and black energy is needed to stabilize it. Therefore, in the final analysis, you still have to rely on black energy to use the Wuzi Sword.
He could easily defeat Dill on the suburban road, except that his black energy was intact at the time. It is also because Dill was seriously injured before. Now that he is deep in Philadelphia, there may be countless enemies, and he does not have much time to fight. The only way to win is to use the black energy sword to kill the enemy instantly.
Originally, he could have continued to wait, continued to "hunt" in the suburbs to obtain death and decay, or quietly entered Philadelphia to take advantage of the civil strife of the vampire clan and fish in troubled waters, but the repeated silent disappearances of the guardians made him extremely uneasy.
He is a person whose good premonitions usually fail, but his bad ones always work.
This is also related to the fact that he is destined to be unable to trust the guardian. He has to have his own plans and cannot wait for the guardian's arrangements. As long as he reshapes his body as soon as possible, he will not be afraid even if the guardian comes up with any tricks.
It has now been almost proven that the fastest way to reshape one's body is to kill vampires. The cold aura contained in Ai Xier's body alone is enough to equal the wild animals he killed hundreds of times in the suburbs.
No matter what plans those old acquaintances in the Sixth Age have, or what the guardian's real purpose is in telling him how to make up for his death, whatever is useful and effective is good, and besides, he has no choice.
There was a slight knock on the door. Ashley, who was wearing pajamas, opened the door and came in. She raised her eyes and looked at Jacob's back in front of the window. She seemed to be able to tell at a glance when it was Chu Yunsheng and who was Jacob.
They are two completely different people, but they are similar in some aspects...Ai Xier walked behind Chu Yunsheng with complicated eyes, as if it was difficult to look at the person in front of her who had been quiet in the Jacob family in recent days. The Chu Yunsheng of life is connected with the cold-blooded Chu Yunsheng on the road that night.
"Nils has been pestering you all night. I saw that he has been talking to you since dinner." Chu Yunsheng did not look back and said calmly: "You probably didn't come to me for his business, there are other things. Bar?"
Aixier nodded slightly: "He is still a child, I will not hurt him."
Chu Yunsheng said: "It sounds like you are very big."
Ai Xier nodded and said: "At least older than him."
Chu Yunsheng turned around and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"They have contacted me." Ashley hesitated, bit her lip and said, "They already know that you are going to Philadelphia, and my mission is to take you to the ambush point."
Chu Yunsheng's eyes moved. He always thought it was strange that Ai Xier didn't take the opportunity to escape, so he said calmly: "You rebelled? Why?"
Ashley didn't say anything, walked to the door of the room, opened the door gently, and let in a sexy woman in black.
