my lord is sick

Xiao Chengzhou temporarily joined the competition, which was unexpected by many people.Because in the eyes of everyone, Xiao Chengzhou has always been a loner, he has never participated in the Jujutsu competition in previous years, and he does not look like someone who will participate in such group activities.

Probably only Xie Yan understood that if it wasn't for him, Xiao Chengzhou would not have played this year.

After the teams enter the arena, lots are drawn to determine the order of appearance.Zheng Peng went to draw lots, and Xie Yan took their spare jerseys and exchanged them for Xiao Chengzhou. When they came back, they saw Zheng Peng and the others frowning again.

"What's wrong?" Xie Yan asked.

Zheng Peng unfolded the tag in his hand, smiled wryly and said: "We won't be eliminated in the first match." To be honest, even if Xiao Chengzhou joined, Zheng Peng just felt that the loss would not be so ugly at best.

"You're so unlucky!" Xie Yan first said something disgusting, and then patted Zheng Peng on the shoulder, "Don't let other people's ambitions destroy your prestige, with Brother Zhou joining us, we will definitely win."

Xie Yan really thinks so, in his heart, Xiao Chengzhou is basically omnipotent.He has reversed the same negative mentality as Zheng Peng before, and now he is full of confidence.

Lu Yu and Wang Rui also comforted each other and said, "Xiaoyan is right, even if you lose, it's better than not being able to play at the beginning."

There was a sound of heavy drum beating, which was the sound to remind the opponent who was going to play first that the game was about to start.

After Xiao Chengzhou joined, he directly took over the baton from Xie Yan. When the drums fell, Xiao Chengzhou also drew everyone's attention back, leading them to warm up, and at the same time telling them what to pay attention to on the field later.

When changing clothes just now, Xie Yan had already told Xiao Chengzhou how they trained before, such as who was in charge of dribbling, who was in charge of passing, and who was in charge of hitting and shooting. Now that Xiao Chengzhou joined, there must be a temporary change .Xiao Chengzhou only made some small changes. If it was too big, he was afraid that the team members would not be able to react.

In the end, Lu Yu and Wang Rui are responsible for guarding the midfield and dribbling the ball. Zheng Peng and another player with a stronger body are in charge of the rear and hinder the opponent from passing the ball. However, Xiao Chengzhou needs them to be both offensive and defensive. While blocking the opponent, they also need to pass the ball to the players.

Xie Yan is in charge of batting and attacking, Xiao Chengzhou is in charge of batting and shooting, and the rest are guarding the rear. When they are in charge of passing the ball, they also need to interfere to prevent the opponent from scoring.

Of course, these are not fixed. When necessary, Xiao Chengzhou will change positions with the players in time after giving an order.Moreover, the most important point is that during the competition, one must not fall off the horse. Every year in the competition, people fall off the horse and get injured. This is very dangerous.

After the explanation was almost finished, Xie Yan and the others rode into the arena one after another. Red flags were planted around the arena. Outside the red flags were wooden railings, and outside were stands.Xie Yan and his team's dilapidated state is known to everyone, even with Xiao Chengzhou in the arena, the people watching outside the arena couldn't help booing after another.

"Shhh you uncle!" Xie Yan booed back without showing timidity, and said to Xiao Chengzhou: "Brother Zhou, let's win a good game and let them see!"

Xiao Chengzhou smiled gently: "How can one match be enough?"

Seeing Xiao Chengzhou's smile, Xie Yan was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly felt that Xiao Chengzhou's smile looked good. He didn't know when he changed from being afraid of seeing Xiao Chengzhou smile to being afraid of not seeing Xiao Chengzhou smile...

The drums fell densely, which shocked Xie Yan immediately.

The game has officially begun.

Because horses are used in Juju, and they must be good horses, this kind of activity is generally only affordable by nobles.Although Xiao Chengzhou has not participated in the Juju competition for so many years, he still knows it, and he is very good.Sometimes it is like this, misfortune and fortune go hand in hand, losing a little fat man in exchange for Xiao Chengzhou, Xie Yan and his team's strength has risen by more than one level.

Because of being surrounded by too many people, some players were very nervous and made mistakes again and again, which led to the score falling behind and the gap gradually widening.Fortunately, Xie Yan and the others were not grumpy, they didn't scold them, they just kept comforting them.Gradually, the nervous people calmed down, and slowly forgot the boos outside the court, and devoted themselves to the game.After being so serious, the score started to catch up.

Seeing that the score was no longer one-sided, the audience outside the court became even more excited. As Xie Yan and the others continued to score upwards, people began to applaud Xie Yan and the others, and then as the deadline for the game approached, the scene began It was more difficult for Xie Yan and the others to score in the stalemate, but the voices of cheering for them outside the court were louder and louder, and almost half of the audience supported them.

And Xie Yan and the others lived up to expectations. When the gong sounded to stop the game, Xiao Chengzhou made a precise shot and scored a point, just overtaking the opponent.

They narrowly won!

Zheng Peng and the others jumped off their horses and threw down their clubs, hugging their nearby teammates and cheering.The same is true for Xie Yan, he immediately ran to Xiao Chengzhou and hugged him.He was so happy that he jumped up and down with excitement, "Brother Zhou, we won! We actually won!"

Xie Yan yelled a few times but got no response from Xiao Chengzhou. When he looked up, he saw Xiao Chengzhou looking down at him with a smile in the corner of his eyes, and the doting in his eyes almost turned into reality.

Xie Yan was scalded by Xiao Chengzhou's eyes, and then he realized what he did just now. He immediately let go of Xiao Chengzhou, touched his nose, glanced around, and felt his face was burning...

Xiao Chengzhou sighed indulgently, at this time the team members who were hugging and cheering enthusiastically came over.Xiao Chengzhou and the others didn't dare to hug, so they took turns hugging Xie Yan.With a smile on his face, Xie Yan cheered with his friends, but his eyes couldn't help but follow Xiao Chengzhou, watching him standing sideways and straightening his saddle, standing alone outside the cheers, obviously not far away from him, but as if separated by the sky .

Thinking about it this way, the excitement of being eliminated without even appearing on the stage seems to have cooled down.

Xie Yan and his team ended today's match. Zheng Peng and the others said they wanted to find a place to celebrate. After a match, everyone had a bit of camaraderie, and their attitude towards Xiao Chengzhou became more natural. Someone said: "Your Majesty , you go too."

Xie Yan turned to look at Xiao Chengzhou.

Xiao Chengzhou shook his head and declined, "You guys go."

When Xie Yan heard that Xiao Chengzhou was not going, he didn't let out a sigh of relief as usual, but lowered his eyes a little bit disappointed.He stood in place, watching Xiao Chengzhou turn and leave. After walking for a while, seeing Xiao Chengzhou twist his arm uncomfortably, Xie Yan remembered that the opponent team fouled in the previous game and accidentally hit Xiao Chengzhou's arm with the club when interfering with Xiao Chengzhou .

Afterwards, Xie Yan returned to Hou's Mansion, changed his clothes, picked up a bottle of ointment and went to Cheng Wang's Mansion.But when he was at the door, Xie Yan was hesitant to go in, walked back and forth several times, and finally entered the palace.

It has been more than a month, and Xie Yan has visited the palace as many times as he can count on one hand. When he comes back today, he feels that this palace is a little strange.There is a reason for the trees in the autumn garden to wither, yellow and leaves, but in the final analysis, Xie Yan's mood has changed.

When Xie Yan saw Xiao Chengzhou, he was taking off one side of his clothes, exposing his arm for Kong Qing to apply the medicine, the place hit by the club was already blue

Xiao Chengzhou didn't question Xie Yan again why he still came to him in private, only asked: "Didn't you go to celebrate with them?"

"I'll go later."

Just as Xie Yan wanted to tell Kong Qing that he was coming to rub medicine on Xiao Chengzhou, he saw Xiao Chengzhou raised his chin to the stool next to him, "Sit down."

This tone suddenly made Xie Yan a little unhappy. In the past, when he came to the palace, Xiao Chengzhou would not speak so politely... That's why Xie Yan didn't sit on the stool, but sat next to Xiao Chengzhou, and silently took over Kongqing's job , rubbed the ointment on his hands to warm it up and began to rub Xiao Chengzhou's arms.

Xiao Chengzhou moved his arm and was immediately grabbed by Xie Yan, so he had no choice but to smile and said, "You can't do this kind of thing."

Xie Yan didn't say anything, but remembered that when he was injured, Xiao Chengzhou took the trouble to feed him medicine, prepared candied fruit for him three times a day, and was not too tired, and massaged him who was sore and stiff due to lying on his stomach Body.

Xie Yan didn't notice or think about it before, but recently he couldn't help thinking about the details of getting along with Xiao Chengzhou when he was alone. Looking back, he was kind to Xiao Chengzhou for other purposes, but Xiao Chengzhou was kind to him. Only willingly because of pure love.

Xie Yan didn't speak, Xiao Chengzhou let Kong Qing go down, and asked: "Are you angry?"

Xie Yan nodded and shook his head again. He nodded because he was really angry because of Xiao Chengzhou's obstinate unfamiliarity. He shook his head because he knew that he had no position to be angry. Xiao Chengzhou.

Both were silent for a while.

Xiao Chengzhou suddenly said: "Ayan, you can't be cruel to me."

Xie Yan depressedly pressed on Xiao Chengzhou's arm, "Even if I don't like you, at least we were good friends before. Breaking up with a good friend because of this kind of thing, it would be like this to anyone else!"

"So, what are you going to do with me?" Xiao Chengzhou turned to look at Xie Yan.

Xie Yan looked at him for a while, then let go of him and shook his head in frustration: "I don't know either."

Xiao Chengzhou pressed Xie Yan's heart, "Ayan, have you ever thought that you may not be as indifferent to me as you think, maybe you don't understand yourself, you actually like me a little bit?"

"Do not……"

"Don't shake your head in a hurry." Xiao Chengzhou pressed his shoulder, "If Zheng Peng and Lu Yu both say they like you, you will be so entangled, will you treat them like me?"

Xie Yan immediately shivered, exuding repulsion from the inside out, he didn't want to be liked by Zheng Peng and the others!

Xiao Chengzhou smiled slowly, "Look, they are also good friends, but in your heart, Zheng Peng and I are different."

So Xie Yan was at a loss, he didn't know what his feelings for Xiao Chengzhou were, whether it was just because of habit, or, as Xiao Chengzhou said, it was because of his subconscious liking for him.
