The next day, Cheng Yu got up early, ate breakfast made by Grandpa Ruan, and then wandered around the school.
The swords, guns, swords and sticks on the weapon racks, the sandbags and wooden stakes on the training ground...touch here, look there.
"Dong, dong, dong, choke, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong…" The sound of gongs and drums came from the playground.
Groups of students, led by their coaches, ran towards the playground.
Cheng Yu followed him. He was not a student and couldn't get too close, so he returned to the concierge and stood beside Grandpa Ruan to watch.
The playground is full of students, wearing red and yellow sports uniforms, neat and tidy, with a mighty spirit.
There is a platform in front, one meter higher than the playground, called the martial arts field. The rostrum is located on one side of the martial arts field.
A middle-aged man gave a brief opening speech and reported that the performance had begun.
In the middle of the martial arts arena, dozens of tables and stools set up a high platform, which is a full twenty meters long. The tables and stools look chaotic, but are actually scattered in an orderly manner.
A balloon floated on the top of the high platform, and a scroll hung under the balloon, swinging in the air.
The sound of gongs and drums started again, and two lions came from both sides, wagging their heads and tails, stepping on the drums, and twisted up. It turned out to be a lion dance, kicking high and picking green flowers.
The two lions were very playful, sometimes jumping up and down, sometimes blinking and shaking their heads, which attracted bursts of applause and cheers from the audience.
"good!"
"One more!"
"Look at the eyes of that lioness, she can even wink!"
...
The atmosphere at the scene became tense, and the lion began to climb up the legs and feet of the tables and stools, rising and falling to the beat of the drums, and made several dangerous moves from time to time, which attracted exclamations of surprise.
"Oh, you scared me!"
"I don't dare to do this action."
"Hurry up and pick green leaves. Don't play too much. This, this is too dangerous." Someone urged worriedly.
...
Gradually, the two lions climbed higher and higher, and people also looked up to watch.
One of the lions jumped up to the top of the high platform, and the other lion cooperated to guard it.
The lion on the top of the stage continued to sway left and right to the beat of the drum, showing off proudly, making the audience burst into laughter and applause.
Suddenly, the lion jumped up, bit the rope on the scroll, and wah---, as the lion's upper body fell down, the scroll unfolded smoothly.
Swish----a red banner with ten big white characters on it: "Second Brother Martial Arts School Freshman Report Performance", thunderous applause broke out on the playground.
Bang bang bang, bang----
"Okay!----" Bang bang bang bang...
"No!" Cheng Yu, who was concentrating on watching the performance, heard Grandpa Ruan next to him suddenly shout.
I saw the green lion head with both feet on the edge of the table, swaying from side to side, turned over and fell from the top of the table.
There were exclamations on the playground. The principal stood up quickly on the podium and said, "Tianjiao----" with his mouth wide open.
The audience exclaimed again, and chaos suddenly broke out.
"It's not good. It's going to be bad. Be careful."
"What's going on..."
The timid person covered his face and did not dare to look any further.
"Oops! Oh my god!" A girl screamed in shock.
...
The coaches sitting in front had already stood up and were ready to rescue him.
It was too far and too late. Some shook their heads and sighed.
If you fall off the 20-meter high platform, you will die.
.......
At the critical moment, Cheng Yu thought and shouted: "Fengjuan, go away!" and then waved out his right palm.
A gust of wind suddenly rose up, quickly rolling up the table in front of the principal on the rostrum, spinning towards the high platform, and arrived in an instant.
An astonishing scene happened. The table flew to the high platform and happened to be under the student, supporting the student and slowing down its descent.
The student turned somersaults, stood firmly on the table, clasped her fists towards the audience, smiled and nodded frequently, and turned out to be a very pretty girl.
.......
No danger!
The audience immediately burst into warm applause.
People regained their composure.
"What kind of situation is this? I thought there was going to be an accident, but I didn't expect it to be a planned move."
"Wonderful. This lion dance performance is perfectly designed and is truly amazing."
"Is there a silk rope on the table? How do you control it? It's so precise!"
"Teacher Sun, I think this program from your class can be used as a repertoire in our school and can be shown on every large-scale occasion."
"Teacher Wang, I think not only reserved programs, but also all programs can participate in the competition. I will definitely get a place at the provincial level."
"Not only in the province, I think if you participate in the national competition, you will also have to get a ranking."
...
"Look, everyone, that lion head is the girl of my dreams, Song Tianjiao, Tianjiao, my goddess! I love you!"
"Taiwan compatriot, stop shouting, be careful, the principal will fire you."
"That's it, stop shouting, you dare to offend the principal's daughter!"
"Why are you expelling me? I came to school, and my dad spent a lot of money. My dad came all the way from Taiwan to live here, and the officials are very polite."
"Stop talking, if you do, I'll beat you up now!"
...
The principal's fright now turned into embarrassment, and the table was gone.
Next to him, Grandpa Ruan looked at Cheng Yu in surprise, with his mouth wide open. This child is not simple, and what he just did was not solved by martial arts.
Someone quickly cleared the stage and the reporting performance continued.
It's not good for the principal to stand on the stage, so he comes down and sits next to the coaches.
.......
"Principal, that show just now was really amazing. This is an opportunity for our school to show its face." The coaches and teachers did not miss this opportunity to impress.
"That is, who is our principal? He is the true descendant of Song Gong and Ming Dynasties."
"Principal, how did you get that table? It flew up, so fast, so steady, so accurate, so awesome." The martial arts coach was really at a loss for words, and finally said this.
The principal smiled bitterly in his heart, but couldn't answer, so he pursed his lips and smiled.
"Principal, you can be considered an actor in this show." Seeing the principal smiling happily, some dared to tease him.
.......
Soon, the two-hour reporting performance ended.
The students went to class and the playground became quiet.
The concierge, Ruan Xingquan, walked up to Cheng Yu and patted his shoulder affectionately, "My child, please report to the principal."
"Grandpa, I have no money, will your school accept me in this situation?" Cheng Yu looked a little embarrassed.
"You go and try it first. If you don't go, how will you know the result?"
Seeing that Cheng Yu was still hesitating, he continued, "You go first, and I will go there later. Grandpa promises to let you stay."
The old man said this, Cheng Yu felt uneasy and walked towards the principal's office in the direction pointed by Grandpa Ruan.
I said in my heart, you are just a gatekeeper, and you guarantee that I can stay, who will believe it?
The principal's office is the first room at the corner of the stairs on the second floor of the teaching building.
Cheng Yu quickly came to the door, feeling even more uneasy and trying to calm down.
If you risk it all, you'll probably go somewhere else.
"Dong dong dong" raised his hand and knocked on the door softly
After pausing for a moment, I heard a voice coming from inside, "Please come in!"
Cheng Yu pushed open the door and walked in, standing cautiously at the door.
Principal Song was standing behind his desk. He had just poured himself a cup of tea and was about to calm down when someone interrupted him, making him feel uncomfortable.
I looked up and saw a child standing at the door. He was wearing ordinary clothes and his cotton-padded jacket was a little shabby.
Leng Yan asked: "Which class are you in? Is there anything wrong?"
"Principal Song, I'm here to register for school. I..."
"Register to school. I'm not a student. Where are you adults? Are you the only one?" Principal Song interrupted Cheng Yudao with some displeasure.
"I'm alone and it's a long way to go. My father and mother didn't come, so they agreed that I would come alone."
"I'm here alone, and so are the adults in your family. Don't worry, then, go to the teaching office to pay the tuition and sign up. Classes are divided into classes. The office is in the middle of the west." Seeing that Cheng Yu's answer was reasonable, the principal changed his tone.
Everyone who comes is a God of Wealth, and those who don’t make money are fools.
"I, I don't have tuition fees, my family has no money, principal, I, I can work for the school, any kind of work can be used to offset the tuition fees, you can think of it." The principal mentioned the tuition fees, Cheng Yu felt embarrassed and begged hard.
Tao, the words are incoherent.
"Oh, what about your situation..." the principal pondered.
"Well, I don't have money to pay for tuition..." He looked embarrassed.
"Our school basically has no shortage of school staff. Let's go back first. If you really want to learn, ask your parents to raise the tuition fee and then send you here. Our school is still very formal."
"Principal, I..."
"Go out, I still have something to do." As he spoke, the principal walked up to Cheng Yu and extended his hand to see the guest off.
"Principal, I..." Cheng Yu continued to beg.
"Let's go. This is a boarding martial arts school. The poor are poor in culture and rich in martial arts. My child, please go back quickly."
Seeing the resolute attitude of the principal, Cheng Yu turned around and walked out of the door helplessly. She might as well try her luck elsewhere.
"Wait, kid, wait." Grandpa Ruan turned around from the stairs and stopped him while going up the stairs.
"Father-in-law!" The principal met Grandpa Ruan head-on, "Why are you here?"
"Father-in-law!" Cheng Yu blurted out, surprised to think that Grandpa Ruan was the principal's father-in-law.
"Child, please wait outside the door for a while. Don't be impatient." Ruan Xingquan settled Cheng Yu, followed the principal into the door, and closed the door. (To be continued)
