Julia stood pretty on the spot, facing Lu Ke's gaze calmly, her eyes flashing with a narrow light, not hiding her mischievous intentions at all, her upright but cunning and playful demeanor, the kind that I have a daughter in the family. The grown-up agility shines in the vast expanses of red.
But such a pediatric prank really has no effect on Lu Ke...
At this moment, before Lu Ke had time to react, Logan rushed forward, squeezed Julia out, raised his right hand high, and shouted cheeringly, "Holy Saint Disciples! Of course they are saints!”
Julia didn't notice for a moment, she staggered on her steps and stumbled towards the side.
Seeing that Julia was about to hit the wall, Lu Ke stepped forward and stood between Julia and the wall to avoid the tragedy. Then Julia made an emergency brake and controlled the ground. He slowed down his steps and stood still in time before running into Lu Ke's arms, narrowly avoiding an embarrassing "idol drama-style" encounter.
Logan, who was standing next to him, didn't notice such a small accident at all. He jumped twice on the spot and thought about it seriously, "Forget it, I'll choose the Lions. I still hope to face the Lions again!" His footsteps crossed, and he bumped into Julia's body. The next moment——
"flutter".
Julia's whole face fell into Lu Ke's chest, and there was a hot and moist heat in her ears, as well as the thumping heartbeat, which was hitting her eardrums powerfully, and the impact was clearly felt The rhythm was transmitted to his heart, and inadvertently, the rhythm was completely disrupted.
"Ah! Sorry, sorry!" Only then did Logan realize that he was in trouble, and quickly supported Julia with both hands, "Julia, are you okay?"
Julia's eyes widened and she glared at Logan fiercely, "Logan Newman! Are you crazy?" In panic, she covered up her slightly hot cheeks and raised her voice, "It's not about choosing. Have you become a saint? Since you have already chosen, you are not allowed to change it! How can you change it back and forth?"
"Bambi hasn't made a choice yet. Of course I can change him before he chooses!" Logan began to retort without showing any weakness. The quarrels between brothers and sisters always have an unreasonable childishness. For parents, To say, this is a disaster; but to outsiders, it is actually an interesting thing.
Lu Ke quietly came to the other side and chose the New Orleans Saints. "No need to argue, I will choose the Saints. If possible, I want to play against Drew Brees and try the elite four points." The power of guard." The expression of eagerness and eagerness to try made other adults watching the excitement start to cheer and cheer, and the atmosphere was instantly ignited.
In the midst of the excitement, the eyes of Lu Ke and Julia accidentally collided.
Lu Ke looked calm, but Julia looked away as if her hands were hot, but then turned her head again, boldly faced Lu Ke's gaze, and deliberately raised her head and chest, as if just to prove herself. Be confident, fearless, and not shy at all.
But such an action made Lu Ke chuckle, "I just want to ask, what is the bet?"
Julia realized that she had misunderstood. She suddenly blushed, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes began to panic. But luckily, Lu Ke was not aggressive. Amidst the noise of the crowd, Julia hit him again. Pull yourself together, raise your voice and say, "The bet is a bucket of water!"
What?
Lu Ke and Logan were both stunned, and they couldn't think straight.
Austin Newman walked out and explained with a smile on his face, "It was supposed to be alcohol, but considering that you have more important tasks ahead, alcohol should be reserved for the offseason."
The real reason was that they were severely scolded by Tiffany Newman and Jiang Youning, who reminded them that the playoffs were not over yet. Drinking too much casually was definitely not a sign of professional sportsmanship, so Austin did this I just touched my nose and could only give up with regret.
"So we prepared a bucket of mineral water, and the losing side must drink it all with a water pipe." Austin said excitedly.
The so-called water pipe is actually a water pipe in the literal sense. One end is stuffed into a person's mouth. There may be nine twists and turns in the middle. The other end is held high by another person, usually standing high. place, then put it into the funnel, and pour the alcohol down continuously, so that the person at the other end of the water pipe can continue to drink alcohol without interruption.
This activity is not just as simple as blowing bottles. Young people holding one side of the funnel often deliberately mix all kinds of alcohol and pour it down; and there is far no end. As long as there is alcohol, the water pipe will It won't stop, and there have been many tragedies of drinking people to death at university fraternity events.
However, after the revision of today's bet, only mineral water is used, and the fun is directly cut in half.
If it were Lu Ke, he might add salt, syrup, white vinegar, pepper and other condiments to the mineral water. There are many, many ways to have a good time without affecting preparations for the game; however, Before the result of the game came out, Lu Ke decided to keep his mouth shut for the time being, otherwise he would shoot himself in the foot accidentally.
"Wait a minute, guys, why don't you join in? Just watching, this is too uninvolving and doesn't feel like a party at all."
Adding condiments cannot be advocated, but Lu Ke has other ways to get everyone involved and make things happen together. Since it’s a party, it’s time to really have fun. After all, the playoffs are different from the regular season.
"You can choose Team Logan or Team Lu Ke. The two of us will represent the team in the war. We will not only guess the outcome of the game, but also guess the number of touchdowns, the score of each quarter, and even the direction of each offense. , I can only guess the Saints, and Logan can only guess the Lions, and then you can guess the outcome between the two of us, and the loser will be punished together, how about it?"
When it comes to clever ideas, how can Austin and Julia compare to Lu Ke?
After saying these words, everyone immediately started gearing up, and the party atmosphere really started to boil. The excitement of the playoffs was becoming real.
The two teams, the New Orleans Saints and the Detroit Lions, have met once before in the thirteenth week of the regular season this season. At that time, the Saints at home defeated the Lions "31:17"; this time in the season When they meet again in the post-game, the two teams that are good at offense are bound to start another scoring battle.
After the game started, surprisingly, the Detroit Lions took the lead. Matthew Stafford found his tight end Will Heller (ill-Heller) in the second wave of offense, and the latter completed the attack. A ten-yard touchdown reception gave them the lead in the first quarter.
Drew Brees, who has set a series of historical records this season, seemed a little slow after coming on the court, with a mediocre touch and a delay in getting into the state. In the first quarter, the game was shut out - not so much the Lions' defensive team. Playing well, it is better to say that Brees ruined many important opportunities.
This is not the playoff battle that people expected.
But after entering the second quarter, Brees gradually found his offensive rhythm. First, he used running back Darren Sproles to complete a rushing touchdown and tied the score; Stafford then Without showing any signs of weakness, he showed his good touch today and completed a 13-yard touchdown pass through "Megatron" Calvin Johnson.
Before the end of the first half, the New Orleans Saints successfully entered the red zone, but struck out and finally chose a free kick. A 24-yard free kick was successfully hit. The two teams took " Entering the locker room with a score of 10:14.
This was not a regular first half.
Brees' passing power has not been put into good use, and he has always been in poor condition, without a passing touchdown; and the wide receivers and tight ends have never been able to open up the situation, especially Jimmy - who swept all the games in the regular season. Graham, who was nearly invisible in the first half, was not good news for the Saints.
Stafford, on the other hand, played steadily. After scoring two touchdown passes, he did not intercept any interceptions. Instead, he was far ahead of Brees in terms of quarterback rating. At the same time, Calvin's performance was really eye-catching, becoming He became the key player in the Lions' offensive team and ended the first half with a four-point advantage.
Faced with such a situation, Logan had already begun to dance and chatter, discussing how to punish the members of "Team Lu Ke". The laughter of "Team Logan" could not be stopped.
But things changed suddenly after entering the second half.
It's not that Stafford's performance has declined. In fact, his performance on the field is still outstanding. He found Calvin Johnson twice and scored a touchdown in the third and fourth quarters. He clung to the score, but no matter what, Brees, who had recovered his passing touch, really felt like killing the gods.
Brees, who is getting better, first successfully activated Jimmy Graham, who was completely different from the first half; then he made full use of his running back Darren Sproles, using screen short passes and slot receivers many times. The blocking position allowed Sproles to find a gap to receive the ball, and he was caught off guard to advance forward, completely making all the changes on the court and unstoppable.
In the first quarter, zero points; in the second quarter, one running touchdown and one free kick; in the third quarter, two passing touchdowns; in the fourth quarter, two passing touchdowns and one running touchdown touchdown ball.
This is how Brees played in this game. In the end, the Saints scored 45 points, six touchdowns and a free kick. They defeated the Lions purely with offense. Following the regular season, in They also eliminated their opponents in the playoffs and advanced to the second knockout round with their heads held high. The final score of the game was "45:28".
When the New Orleans Saints won the game, it also meant that the first matchup in the divisional round was officially determined: "San Francisco 49ers VS New Orleans Saints"!
