Following the sound and through the green trees, Liu Lang actually saw a sports ground surrounded by students.
To be more precise, it's a basketball court.
Liu Lang couldn't help but feel dizzy. In this era, there is actually basketball on Chinese university campuses?
Liu Lang is naturally familiar with basketball. As a competitive sport that does not require large venues and personnel, almost all military camps in the Republic have basketball courts.
In their spare time during the holidays, Liu Lang and his comrades would inevitably divide into teams to compete in a few games.
But Liu Lang didn't expect that basketball had already started to be played in the Republic of China in the 1930s. Although the venue was not very good, it was just a piece of yellow land. Liu Lang even saw that as the players on the court shot the ball,
Clouds of dust were rising, but the basketball stands and baskets on both sides of the field that were almost identical to modern basketball proved that this was a basketball court.
This is because Liu Lang does not understand the history of Chinese basketball. Not to mention that it is already the 1930s. In fact, after the American James invented basketball in 1891, only four years later, in 1896, American missionaries invented basketball.
It was introduced to China and successfully built China's first basketball court.
Some of the most famous universities in China have already popularized basketball. Even the Red Army will organize basketball games for exercise and entertainment after arriving in northern Shaanxi. If it were replaced by Ji Yanxue, who went to college
Come, Liu Lang will definitely not be surprised. Basketball is nothing if it has not yet entered the elegant hall. Tennis and football are also available on the campus of the Republic of China University.
The Republic of China was by no means a desolate place as most people in the future imagined.
Seeing Liu Lang's surprised face, this time it was the little foreign girl's turn to gain knowledge.
"Dear Liu, have you never seen basketball?" The little foreign girl's blue eyes finally filled with pride.
From being invincible in marches and battles, to almost knowing everything when walking and shopping, Liu Lang puts a lot of pressure on American girls. This time, he finally saw a trace of confusion in his eyes, and the little foreign girl couldn't even think about it.
Disaster.
"This! I've actually seen it before." Liu Lang shook his head again and told the truth.
Blow, you keep blowing, the little foreign girl gave Liu Lang a "contemptuous" look, determined to attack a certain man who boasts a lot about this sport invented by the United States of America.
"Then can you fight?"
"You must be able to play." Liu Lang recalled his heroic appearance on the basketball court and not only raised his hand and spread his fingers.
Liu Lang is only a little over 1.7 meters tall. The long-legged little foreign girl is almost as tall as Liu Lang wearing high-top cowhide shoes. Liu Lang's hand is held in a virtual position, and that position is exactly on the little foreign girl's chest.
Location.
The two people chatting probably didn't feel anything, but looking from Sun Wenfa's angle, they happened to see the little foreign girl smiling and saying something to Liu Lang, and the fat group seat looked... extremely wretched.
made a motion of pinching the ball.
Shocking, how can I put it? It can only be shocking. Although Sun Fufa, who was covered in cold sweat, came from a wealthy family, he also molested a maid in his teenage years, but that was only when he was looking at no one.
Or just pinch it with a claw, what about the waves like Lang Tuan Zuo? In front of so many people, are you prepared to do this?
Not only Sun couldn't see it, but even the taciturn Tyson took a breath of cold air. Since entering this ancient eastern country, although the people here are a little backward and ignorant, most of them are still extremely conservative and traditional. What will happen?
Colonel Liu is so dissolute? Maybe this is because he is a very human being! After carefully considering the combat effectiveness of the open-type fat man, Tyson decided that as long as the lady is happy, it will be fine.
But Miss Laura was not very happy.
Not only was Liu Lang stubborn and refused to admit defeat, but the students there also saw that she was a foreigner. The little foreign girl who was proficient in Chinese was called either "foreign devil" or "foreign girl", but none of them were pleasant to her ears.
of.
The competition in the field also gradually stopped due to the arrival of two Westerners, one black and one white, Little Foreign Girl and Tyson.
Although blond Westerners were not uncommon in China at this time, the tall black man with a height of 1.9 meters and the slender little foreign girl wearing jodhpurs and leather shoes were too eye-catching, and the students finally couldn't help it.
Focus on the two of them.
As for the fat Chinese man wearing an ordinary Chinese cardigan next to them, he was naturally ignored.
During this period of the Republic of China, the middle and upper classes wore suits for the more modern ones and mandarin jackets and robes for the more traditional ones. The progressive young people or the more thoughtful ones wore Chinese tunic suits. That is to say, the ordinary people at the bottom wore short-breasted shirts, and the civil servants at the lower levels wore blouses.
Wear short shirts.
It is really difficult for Liu Lang, a fat man with ordinary appearance and ordinary clothes, to attract people's attention. The Chinese ancestors invented the term "judging people by their appearance" after their deep understanding, and it has been used almost throughout the entire history of China.
Seeing all the Chinese students turning their attention to her, the little foreign girl felt a little unhappy at being called a foreign devil. She rolled her eyes a few times, smiled on her face, took a few steps forward, and said loudly: "Hi, how are you?
, Chinese children, I am Laura from the United States of America, nice to meet you."
At this time, some students who had been quiet quit. No matter which era, those who can enter Huaqing Garden are the proud ones of that era. Naturally, they don't want to be called children, especially by such a person.
Young western woman.
There were a few people who were a bit more impatient and started muttering. If it weren't for the big black man standing there looking domineering and powerful, he would have blurted out words like "yellow-haired devil".
A young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes who was sitting on a wooden chair by the sports field wiping sweat frowned, looked up at the enthusiastic little foreign girl, stood up and strode towards her, "Ms. Laura, welcome to China,
We are also very happy to meet you, but I must correct you for a Chinese grammar mistake. You should call our Chinese friends instead of children."
Obviously, the young man with thick eyebrows should be the leader of this group of students. As soon as he opened his mouth, the men and women stopped chattering to express their dissatisfaction.
"I'm sorry, my Chinese level is limited. Chinese friends, what you just played should be basketball that originated from my home country, the United States of America!" Laura apologized simply, and then changed the topic and asked.
"Yes, Ms. Laura, what advice do you have?" the young man with thick eyebrows asked in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"I'm really sorry to disturb your game. You played very well." Laura's smile did not diminish, her blue and beautiful eyes rolled a few times and then said: "But, this friend next to me thinks that you played very badly.
Already."
The students naturally cast their angry gazes on the big black man who had always had an expressionless face. As for the fat man on the other side, he was still ignored.
Although they were a little angry, the students felt a little scared when they looked at the sturdy black man who was 1.9 meters tall. The thick-browed young man was already very tall at nearly 1.8 meters tall. Compared with this man,
There’s still half a head left to go!
"No, no, it's this Chinese friend next to me. He said he is a basketball master and wants to play with you." Laura pointed her finger at Liu Lang and looked at Liu Lang with a cunning look.
The whole place was in an uproar.
Being told by a tall, muscular black man that your skills are bad is already very infuriating. But if you are told by a fat man, then...
Obviously, the proud men of heaven are even more angry.
Is this little girl so idle? Countless future heroes in Huaqing Garden are waiting for me to fool them. How can I have time to play with these children? Liu Lang glared at me for some reason, wondering why he was so troubled.
The little foreign girl is about to speak.
The little foreign girl suddenly put her head next to Liu Lang's ear and said, "Colonel, if you let me see your basketball skills, on behalf of the Ross family, I will invite a few more people to go to Europe for inspection. You decide the quota."
I don't know whether he was intoxicated by the fragrance of the little foreign girl's mouth, or whether the promise behind was very important to Liu Lang. Liu Lang pushed the little foreign girl aside and stood domineeringly in front of the thick-browed young man: "Yes, it's me.
Your basketball skills are so weak."
Then, the proud men of heaven completely exploded.
