Ping Pong Life

Chapter 13 The mentality is broken

Jiang Shan's small face became very serious. He glanced at Wang Chao and said, "I'm going to be serious."

Wang Chao felt familiar for some reason.

This sentence seems to have been said by himself in the Mingyue Pavilion last time?

It feels quite a bit of the effect of packing ratio.

So, kid, are you trying to imitate me?

"Come on, let me see how serious you are." Wang Chao was very interested.

Jiang Shan was really cautious about serving the ball this time, because he found that Wang Chao's ability to find opportunities was much stronger than he imagined. The short backspin, the landing point is very close, and it is biased towards Wang Chao's left hand.

This position is not good for attacking sideways, nor is it convenient for direct horizontal strikes. He is sure that Wang Chao can only pull the board first.

No accidents this time...

Wang Chao pushed the board without any risk, and the ball returned to Jiangshan's side. Jiangshan was overjoyed, stepped forward without hesitation, forcibly twisted his wrist, and pulled the ball up hard.

"Really cool!"

After being counted for four balls in a row, he finally got the chance to take the initiative to attack. At this moment, Jiang Shan was in desperate need of venting. As the ball was pulled hard, he let out a strange cry: "I hit!"

It does have a bit of the charm of the famous martial arts star Bruce Lee in the previous life.

Wang Chao withdrew his arms and blocked the ball.

But how can Jiangshan give up?
It was rare for him to get the opportunity, and he was already prepared for a multi-regimental attack. Seeing that one retaliation failed, he made another resolute retaliation.

He was blocked again.

He drew again, was blocked, drew again, was blocked, continued to draw, was blocked again, and drew to the seventh board in one breath. Finally, because of too much force, he pulled a bit reluctantly, the ball did not fall off the table, and flew directly out of the table .

5: 0.

Jiang Shan finally found out that something was wrong.

Obviously his basic skills should be better.

Although he lost four goals in a row just now, it was all due to various strategies and calculation mistakes. He admired Wang Chao's wisdom in playing, but he was not convinced.

But the fifth ball was different.

He has taken the initiative, hit the ball to the most hated spot for straight players, and launched a continuous attack, which can already be regarded as a huge advantage on the scene.

In the case of equal strength, if you play ten such balls, the attacking side can win at least seven of them.

But as the attacker, he didn't win?

Wang Chao defended passively, and his defense method was still the same straight backhand push and block, but he resisted it abruptly?
This can only be said to be a difference in strength...

"Brother, did you hide your strength that day?" Jiang Shan suddenly thought of the key point.

In the table tennis world, strength speaks for itself.When he first came here, Jiangshan's nostrils were turned upside down, as if Wang Chao's single name was "Hi", but now he found that Wang Chao is a master, so he started calling him brother.

Wang Chao smiled without saying a word.

He certainly gave it his all that day.

But what makes him different from others is that he is improving every day.

When he came out of the Mingyue Pavilion that day, he already knew the areas where he needed to improve the most.

physical fitness.

power.

And body control.

This body is malnourished visible to the naked eye, and can't keep up in terms of physical fitness or strength. It doesn't matter if he plays health balls with Han Feng and the others, but that day he played with Tian Zhengguang at the Mingyue Stadium. He was out of breath after only one round. , almost unbearable.

Therefore, he needs the most basic exercise.

It just so happened that his mother forced him to become an apprentice.

With just a few tweaks, he turned his barbershop apprenticeship into a physical exercise.

Haircutting is a meticulous job, the more detailed it is, the better the control over the body will be.

The business in the barber shop was not bad, he ran around all day, busy, and didn't even have time to sit down and rest.

It seems that I am trying to learn how to wash, cut and blow, but in fact it is to keep myself in a state of exercise and exercise endurance.

He eats two lunch boxes every day because he needs a lot of meat, eggs, vegetables and carbohydrates.

He needs to get a little fatter and gain some muscle.

In fact, he has been doing "off-the-ball practice" without interruption.

So he was not in a hurry to have a showdown with Wang Mei.

If Jiang Shan didn't find him, he wanted to work as an apprentice for a month first.

Anyway where is not practicing?It's more cost-effective to have the boss provide food here than to go back and spend my mother's money to buy meat.

"Wow, you hid it so deeply!" Jiang Shan was filled with righteous indignation: "It's too insidious! It's too despicable! But I like it!"

The little boy was full of anger: "Since that's the case, I'll let you see my trick!"

Jiangshan's serve was very short and flat. Wang Chao had no chance to make a move, so he stabilized the board. Afterwards, Jiangshan started directly.

He quickly adjusted his pace, leaned forward, twisted his wrist to the limit, like a tightened spring, and then swung it outward fiercely, drawing an irregular and smooth semicircular trajectory.

This is a technique called "screwing".

This is a standard backhand twisting position.

In fact, this is a technique that most horizontal board players in the international table tennis are most keen to use when facing a backhand ball.

The technology worked well and became routine in the shortest time after it was invented.

In theory, almost any ball can be screwed directly.

As long as your wrist is curved enough, the wrist strength is strong enough, the rubber friction is strong enough, and the sense of space is good enough.

A low-quality twist is just a bad topspin or sidespin, but a high-quality twist can directly kill the board.

There are even some top players who can develop ball twisting into their own unique ultimate move, which is so powerful that it is not inferior to the real smash.

Being able to do this level of twisting is called "overlord twisting".

Jiang Shan's ball was twisted and turned quickly, it seemed that one moment it was still stuck to the racket, and the next moment it had reached the other side of the table, and even flew out of the table.

This should be the fastest ball so far.

But Wang Chao still caught it.

He didn't expect that Jiang Shan would suddenly make a "twist", but the reaction speed of this body was too fast, he came after the serve, unexpectedly caught up with the ball, and hastily blocked it back.

Although the catch was very reluctant, and the quality of the return was not high, but after all, it successfully landed on the opposite table.

Jiang Shan was not superstitious about his twisting, and never let down his vigilance. When he saw the ball flying high, he rushed forward without saying a word, and raised his racket high!
Wang Chao retreated seven or eight steps and is still retreating.

After hastily catching the screw ball, he didn't hesitate at all, and stepped back.

This ball has been played into the current situation, and the choice is all in Jiang Shan's hands. At this moment, Jiang Shan only needs to put the racket flat on the top of the net, wait for the ball to fall quietly, take advantage of the situation, and make a short ball with a wide angle. If you exceed it, you will lose points.

But playing is not only about technique, but more about psychology.

Wang Chao knew how frustrated Jiangshan was with the first five goals, and he knew that Jiangshan urgently needed to vent.

And when it comes to venting, what could be better than a hard slap to death?
He was sure that Jiangshan's ball would not be short, and he would smash it vigorously.

He was right.

Jiang Shan buckled extremely hard, and the ball bounced high, flew five or six meters away, and then fell rapidly. Wang Chao waited there, and slashed the racket forward obliquely.

A nice side cut!

The ball drifted in the air for an ultra-long distance, with a beautiful trajectory. It fluttered over the net, lightly brushed against the edge of the opposite table, changed an angle abruptly, and flew out, which also made Jiangshan The next shot that was ready to go directly fell through.

This turned out to be a very lucky edge ball.

6: 0.

"I'll fuck you up! I've lost my mind!" Jiang Shan swears directly.
