men's volleyball

Chapter 34 Frustration
Teaching and Research Building.

Wei Xiao, Gong Cheng and Lu Ming ran all the way into the volleyball team's office.

Looking at Coach Hong who was sitting deep in his seat and meditating like a thinker, the three teenagers walked up to the coach with a little excitement and said hello.

"sit down!"

Coach Hong withdrew his complicated thoughts, looked at the three of Wei Xiao, and gestured with his hand.

On the long wooden chair, the three teenagers sat down according to the order, and looked at Coach Hong expectantly in their eyes.

With a rare gentle smile, Coach Hong said, "Don't be nervous, it's a good thing! The list of the provincial youth team has come down, and you are on the list. Next month, you will report."

The smiles on the faces of the three teenagers were extraordinarily bright, and they kept nodding and shaking their heads. They were not nervous, they were only happy.

Wei Xiao is in a very good mood now, very good.

This is the third time he has walked into the coach's office since he entered the sports school.

The first time, when he was about to transfer to the volleyball team, his parents brought him along.I remember that at that time, he was afraid that the coach would not allow him to join the volleyball team, and he was afraid that he would not be able to be in the same class with his good buddies in the future.That day, he was anxious the whole time.

The second time was that night he and Lin Mu came together to ask the coach for extra practice.What he remembered was that he was a little cautious, a little nervous, and his palms seemed to be sweating. His good buddies stood in front of him, opening a new chapter for him and his life in the sports school.

Now it is the third time, he is full of joy and anticipation, and his mind is full of longing.

The side of the seat faces the outer window, and light green venetian curtains are hung in front of the window, blocking the wind outside the window, and shaking gently from time to time.

It may have been quite a long time, and the light green color of the curtains has already been tempered by the years and faded a little.

The hinges of the window pages are often adjusted, and the color is severely worn. Although the overall appearance is still neat, it just always feels a bit decadent and old.

At this time, the window is half open, and the sunlight outside the window is projected in through the gap. The light shines on the body one by one, and the warm temperature makes the whole body feel comfortable.

Wei Xiao felt a little emotional.

It seems that in his short period of two years, Lin Mu has become an important role in his life. For friendship and hobby, he joined the volleyball team.

For the sake of friendship, Lin Mu accompanied him to practice during the summer vacation, took him to find a coach for additional training, and led him to train hard.Urge him, guide him, let him not relax for a moment.

Point out the direction for him, accompany him to hone, and constantly improve his skills.

Won the top five in the assessment and defeated the provincial youth team.

Now, the future he had envisioned was finally broken by hard work and persistence.

After the excitement passed, he always felt like crying when he thought about it.

He tilted his head back, blinking his eyes.

Coach Hong relaxed his body while speaking, leaned on the back of the chair, raised his head slightly, and looked at the three of them, but he seemed to be a bit empty.

After a while, he sighed with a smile: "You are about to step onto a higher stage! You are about to enter the most intense sports competition circle, and I don't know if I should say something to you."

Coach Hong shook his head lightly, took back his sighs and exclamations, and said solemnly: "You are the best students in the volleyball team of the sports school in recent years, and you have come to the present through hard work and talent.

I hope you can remember that your talents have given you the opportunity to go up, but if you want to go higher and further, hard work and persistence are the most important.

No matter where the future is, your partners can help you, and your coaches can guide you, but there is a limit after all, and ultimately you have to rely on yourself. "

Coach Hong's words seemed to have something to say, his solemn expression and deep eyes seemed to be telling the three teenagers.

Don't be proud and complacent just because you are talented, don't give up your persistence because of good times and adversities, and don't think that you can take shortcuts in other ways.

There are no shortcuts in sports!

Seeing the three teenagers nodding their heads thoughtfully, Coach Hong smiled slightly.

Maybe their thinking is immature now, maybe what he said was completely forgotten by them, but as a coach and teacher, he still wants to say it.

The old coach once told him and his former classmates, and also told Lu Lin.

He thought about when he was young, he seemed to forget a lot in the end, and because of this, he ended up being blocked from the provincial team.

And the only one who hasn't forgotten is Lu Lin. It must be an exaggeration to say that Lu Lin's talent is several dimensions higher than theirs.At that time, there were even many so-called talented people who were more favored than Lu Lin.

But Lu Lin just insisted on learning volleyball, played volleyball as always, practiced steadfastly, and stepped onto the big stage firmly in line with his original intention.

Although in the end Lu Lin persisted until he was a little stubborn and stubborn, and got his head broken, but more people would only sigh with emotion that Lu Lin was born at the wrong time.

"Okay, that's all for now, come, get the report card and the comment file for you!"

Coach Hong smiled, sorted out a page of paper and a sealed khaki file bag on the desk, and stretched out his hand to the three teenagers.

The three teenagers hurriedly stood up, stepped forward to take it, and couldn't wait to unfold the page and read it.

The heads of the provincial teams, and a few lines of text with their names printed on them.

The eyes of the teenagers narrowed with laughter, full of joy.

Coach Hong waved his hand and said with a smile: "After the training in the afternoon, you call your family, and discuss with your family how to arrange the period before the report! Go!"

"Coach Hong, thank you!"

The three greeted each other again.

Wei Xiao and Gong Cheng didn't speak any more. Lu Ming said with youthful vigor and confidence on his face, "Coach, don't worry, we will definitely be the talented and hardworking people you said."

"Haha, good. I heard it, and I will remember what you said!"

Coach Hong smiled brightly and freely, completely different from the usual Banzheng coach image, and even added a little bit of kindness to his own children in his words: "Come on! I believe that as long as you can persist, even in provincial Youth team, you also have the ability to not lose to others. I will pay attention to you in school, and I look forward to hearing more good news in the future."

Coach Hong looked expectant and encouraging, and then warned: "Finally, you are classmates, and you have been training and training together all the time, and you have come together all the way.

Now the three of you will go to the province together. In the provincial youth team, you still have to maintain your unity, not for you to stick together to do something.What I hope is that you can continue this spirit of solidarity, mutual support and encouragement..."

"no……"

Wei Xiao, who had always been excited and happy, was startled when he heard what Coach Hong said halfway through, and the excitement and joy dissipated immediately.

"Coach, you said there are three of us? Then this..."

Wei Xiao stammered a little, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Gong Cheng and Lu Ming, he was a little disbelieving and uncertain.Did I hear it wrong, or the coach didn't express clearly.

But in the eyes of his companion, he saw the same doubt and surprise.

Wei Xiao couldn't help asking anxiously: "Where's Lin Mu? Coach, you're talking about the three of us. What about Lin Mu? Could it be..."

three?Lin Mu was not there, could it be that Lin Mu walked higher than them?The provincial first team or the second team directly asked for it?That's a good thing, but it would be a pity if we couldn't train together.

As for not being selected, from the beginning to the end, Wei Xiao and Gong Cheng never thought that Lin Mu would be inferior to them. The current situation made their thoughts fly a little bit, and they were very confused.

Unfortunately, the result was impossible as they thought.

"Lin Mu was not selected, it's not your turn to worry about him now..."

Coach Hong "drives" them out of the office after speaking.

But Coach Hong's words surprised them, surprised them, and made them unbelievably puzzled.

Walking out of the office, the three of them walked side by side, walking out of the teaching and research building unconsciously, and they seemed to have just realized it.

"How could it be? I and Gong Cheng can be selected, but Brother Mu is not here. How is it possible?"

Wei Xiao kept muttering, her voice getting louder and louder: "I'm going to find Brother Mu, what kind of broken team can't beat us, and can't choose Brother Mu..."

Without any scruples about the two classmates around him, Wei Xiao ran away. He wanted to find Lin Mu, so he had to ask him carefully.

Wei Xiao's figure walked further and further away, Gong Cheng looked at Lu Ming beside him with silence, thought and incomprehension, and ran after Wei Xiao.

"What kind of look is this?"

Lu Ming was also muttering in his heart, and Gong Cheng's look made him very uncomfortable.

Do you think that I asked my dad to help me in the teaching competition, which affected Lin Mu?

It really should be a little bit, otherwise, if you go to the training camp according to the original recommendation, the possibility of Lin Mu being selected into the team in the end should be very high.

But you can't say that.If it weren't for the teaching competition, the two of you might not even have the chance to be seen.

Lu Ming felt a little uncomfortable. Although he was a little selfish, he still brought some benefits to the students, didn't he?
Why wasn't Lin Mu selected?
After turning around in his mind, Lu Ming was still surprised by the fact that Lin Mu was not selected.

Give Dad a call and ask!

Thinking of this, Lu Ming walked away with doubts in his head.

……

At this time, on the other side of the campus, Lin Mu was also full of thoughts.

"Lin Mu, you are not included in the Provincial Youth Team roster this time!"

What Coach Lu said just now, a few sentences, a few simple words knocked on his heart one by one.

It's not that he can't accept such a result, nor does it mean that he must think that he is better than anyone else, and he will not be so cynical that he denounces and vents if he is not selected.

He just sighs!
He feels that he has never been unlucky, but he feels that he is very lucky.

His family is very poor, although life is very hard, but also very warm.

There always seemed to be twists and turns in his life, strange and subtle, but ultimately good.

Most of the time in elementary school was good. Although there were many episodes of teachers that made him feel a little uncomfortable, the head teacher was still good to him.

Because of the economic situation, he and his brother have their own ideas, maybe they will drop out of school and enter the society early.

But because of a sports meeting, he finally embarked on another path.

After coming to the sports school, more than a year of training in the track and field team gave him some blows, but he came to the volleyball team again, and fate once again favored him.

He has good friends, and he also has a very deep life memory. He also met Coach Lu who was also a teacher and friend who taught him everything and took good care of him.

He has a few more partners who surround him and train together.

Since he had a unique feeling for volleyball, it was more like he had been opened up to the two veins of Ren and Du. The level, environment and people get along smoothly all the way to the present.

He has even imagined a road, and the road seems to have been slowly laid out in front of him.

Sports schools, provincial teams, maybe the national youth team, or even the national team, playing small games, big games, or even international competitions...

Try to go further, go to a wider world, and spend ten or ten years in the first half of your life to create some passion and excitement that are not in memory.

He is usually silent, but he is not reticent. All the time, he feels that the sky is blue, the water is clear, and the life of a teenager is beautiful, but the reality has once again given him setbacks.

Perhaps, it was a blow!

It has never been difficult to be a poor man, and it is naive without being hit!
Oh, there are really too many unsatisfactory things in life!

Lin Mu smiled wryly!
