Li Ye jumped into the Feng River. As soon as he sank to the bottom, his feet were covered with soft mud and water plants. Suddenly, a strong current rushed in. He suddenly lost his balance and rolled several times under the water. With great difficulty, he finally Keep your posture steady.

He started to swing his sword underwater, but he couldn't hold it up after only a few swings. The bottom of the river and the bottom of the well were completely different. The bottom of the well was a still world. His body was very stable, while the river was turbulent. , his body could not stabilize and he had to spend a lot of energy to stabilize his body.

Li Ye only waved four times before he could no longer survive. He rushed up to the water with his feet and ran out of energy before he even reached the surface. 'Gudu! Gudu! ’ He drank two mouthfuls of river water.

His head shot out of the water and he took big breaths.

"How many times did you wave?" Pei Min asked.

"Look around!"

"No!" Pei Min shouted sternly: "At least six times!"

Li Ye plunged in again, but it was still the same as last time. He struggled to stabilize his body and struggled with the rapids. He still couldn't hold on after only five swings. He was forced to take a sip of water and rush out of the water.

"Fool!"

Pei Min couldn't help but roared: "How can you fight against a river that lasts hundreds of millions of years?"

A bolt of lightning rushed into Li Ye's brain, and he had an epiphany.

Li Ye plunged into the bottom of the river for the third time. This time he no longer fought against the river water and allowed the current to hit him. He maintained his shape in the turbulent current and kept slashing, striking out twenty times in one go.

When he rushed out of the water and took a deep breath, he realized that he had drifted a mile away with the water. Pei Min was no longer where he was. Li Ye looked up at the night sky, filled with stars, and a bright full moon hanging in the sky. Hide and appear.

The full moon disappeared into the thin clouds, and Li Ye also disappeared into the water.

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

At dawn the next day, Li Ye was running in the streets and alleys. He ran home from Fengshui in one breath last night. He was not tired at all and was extremely energetic.

After only two hours of sleep, he got up again.

Maybe running is also a form of exercise.

Li Ye ran against the morning light. The morning sun shone on his face and body. His body was dyed golden, as if all his pores were breathing the morning air.

Li Ye ran faster and faster, running from the southwest to the northeast, passing through the entire city of Chang'an, running for twenty miles in one breath, and finally arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion.

Li Ye rushed to the steps of Prince Ning's Mansion. He bent over and panted slightly. Although he was a little tired, his heart was extremely happy.

Each side of a polo match consists of five players, divided into interceptors, passers and shooters. However, the game changes rapidly, and each person's role will change at any time, without any rigidity.

Each team has ten white-ball players and is allowed two foreign players, with a maximum of twelve players.

On the court, the biggest difference between foreign players is the color of their protective leather armor, which is only black and white, while the uniforms of the Ningwangfu Polo Team are blue.

Training has only one purpose, and that is to hone the cooperation between each other. Through countless training games, each player can reach a tacit understanding.

The Ningwang Polo Team has been established for almost 30 years, and the players have changed countless times. The players of this generation have been working with each other for three years, but the results are not very good. They are eliminated in the first round every time and have never entered the semi-finals. , and has never entered the qualifying round.

This time Li Lin introduced Li Ye, a talented golfer. His goal is to enter the top ten in the semi-finals, that is, to qualify in the group stage.

The Polo League has similarities with the modern football world. For example, there is a group stage. The top two points in each group enter the semi-finals, which is the top ten, and then they eliminate each other to enter the top five. The top five is also called the attack. Qualifying round.

The final winner is qualified to attack. This is the difference from modern football.

The challenger was the leader of last year's league. It did not participate in the competition and had been watching the battle, waiting for the final winner to challenge it after passing five levels and killing six generals.

Although Li Ye performed extremely well in the individual martial arts competition, he may not be able to perform well in the team martial arts competition.

Among all Ningwang polo players, he only knew one alternate player, Qi Yong, but Qi Yong acted as if he didn't know him and never said a word to him.

"Beware of flying sharks!" shouted the nine-headed bird in the distance.

Everyone was training for a game. The opponent's tackler, Triangle, swung his club and hit Li Ye hard. The opponent might have hit the ball, but the ball and Li Ye were on the same line. If Li Ye didn't dodge, the shot would definitely be missed. Hit him.

This shot was hit extremely hard, creating a sound of wind, and there was a hint of coldness in the eyes of Triangle Snake.

How could Li Ye let him succeed? He turned slightly to one side and the club passed by him, ‘Pop! ’ The ball was also knocked out.

"Idiot, what did you do? The ball flew away!"

Several companions glared at Li Ye angrily, and two opponents said angrily: "This is a five-hundred-polo match for a famous polo player. I think it's nothing more than that!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

On the field, the nine-headed bird on the team rushed over and shouted at several players: "If you have the ability, go to the 100-step line. If you don't have the ability, just shut up!"

All the players turned around and left angrily. Nine-Headed Bird smiled at Li Ye and said, "These are rough people. They talk like farts. Don't take it to heart!"

"Thank you Captain!"

Li Ye could clearly see the ferocious look in Triangle Snake's eyes when he slapped himself with his club just now. This could not be explained by the word 'rough man'.

At this time, team leader Gao Lian shouted from the sidelines: "Flying Shark, please come over!"

Li Ye urged his horse to run towards the sidelines. He turned over and dismounted, walked forward and said, "What's wrong with the team leader?"

Gao Lian sighed and asked, "Is this your first time participating in a professional football match?"

"yes!"

"No wonder you don't know. The situation just now happens often during matches, but it complies with the rules. The rules allow reasonable fighting."

Li Ye said calmly: "I know all the rules of polo!"

"The rules on paper are one thing, but the rules in actual competition are another matter. I'm afraid you don't understand the meaning of the word 'reasonable'."

Li Ye bowed and said: "Leader, please tell me, I'd like to hear the details!"

Gao Lian said earnestly: "Fighting for the ball during the game is called reasonable. This is allowed and even encouraged by the rules. The polo match is originally a battle of cavalry, so it is called a martial arts match. When two people fight for the ball, the key is to fight fiercely immediately. , knock the opponent off his horse, or the opponent shows weakness and retreats, then you can shoot the ball calmly.

There is only one situation that is illegal. If the opponent does not have the ball in his hand, you cannot provoke the opponent. If the opponent passes the ball away before you attack, you must stop immediately. If a fierce fight occurs when both sides do not have the ball, the provoking party must Got a free throw. "

At this time, the leader of the team, Jiu TouNiao, also stepped forward and added: "In fact, no one wants to fight with each other. Everyone is passing the ball while running at high speed. As soon as the ball comes to their hands, they must pass it away immediately without giving it to the other party. When there is an opportunity to take action, there is often only one situation where a fierce fight will occur. When two people are chasing the ball at the same time, there is also a situation where it is a tactical trap. The opponent wants to knock you off your horse and deliberately keep the ball in your hand. At this time, you must be special. Be careful."

"Thank you to the team leader and team leader for your guidance. Actually, I just want to say that there should be enough protection during the game!"

"Of course, during official competitions, everyone's armor is very strong, especially the neck and head. That is the focus of prevention. You have to get used to wearing armor to compete."

"Although it is training now, it is also a competition. We are not wearing protective armor. What should we do if we are injured?"

"How can it be?"

Gao Lian felt a little displeased and said, "This is just a training match, so everyone will naturally act appropriately!"

"But what if someone can't bear to see me winning five hundred guan in a game and accidentally losing my control?" Li Ye responded coldly.

Gao Lian's expression changed, and he suddenly understood what Li Ye meant.

He immediately said to the Nine-Headed Bird: "Let everyone put on formal armor and train!"

When Li Ye signed the contract, only three people were present. As a result, everyone knew how much money he received. Only the team leader Gao Lian leaked it, so Li Ye was very dissatisfied with him.

Other team members can only receive dozens of guan in a month, but Li Ye only gets 500 guan in one game, which will definitely cause controversy and dissatisfaction. It will be difficult for Li Ye to gain a foothold in the team, and the competition will not cooperate with him.

Therefore, leaking income is an extremely serious matter. If an opponent seizes this handle, they can easily sow discord.

I will write about this issue later.
