Chapter 12 A Figure Forever Moving Forward

Chang Sheng found himself in the tourist-filled Plaza de España again, right in front of the statues of Cervantes and Don Quixote, but this time, he was no longer squatting, and he did not have a single hand in his hand. Bite out of the bread.

He felt strange.

Turn back time?

His first reaction was: Damn it! I haven't archived it yet!

But soon he reacted.

He remembered that he was very excited because he was hit by a pie falling from the sky, so he called up the system again to study, and this study lasted until midnight.

I was so sleepy that I fell asleep.

Then……

By the way, I should be dreaming now!

Chang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But why am I dreaming of this square again?

At this time, Chang Sheng, who was in awe, found that there was darkness in front of him.

His eyes refocused on the person in front of him.

It's not a beggar, at least in terms of clothes... Although it's not a beggar's clothes, it's still very strange.

Chang Sheng felt a little familiar.

Then he looked up, saw this man's face, and was stunned—isn't this the old beggar?

Absolutely!

Chang Sheng is quite confident in his memory within a few days. The old beggar left a deep impression on him at that time, so he still remembers the appearance of the old beggar until now.

The person in front of him is the old beggar who gave him the cheat back then!

But what he's wearing...

Chang Sheng felt that the old beggar's attire was also somewhat familiar...how familiar?

Chang Sheng's eyes turned to the group of statues behind the old beggar.

He saw on the statue the exact same clothes as the old beggar's now!

And that statue is... Don Quixote!

"We meet again, young man." The old beggar... oh no, now Don Quixote said to Chang Sheng with a smile.

Chang Sheng opened his mouth wide, unable to accept this reality for a while.

The old beggar turned out to be Don Quixote?

Did I cross, or did Don Quixote cross?

Even a football geek, Chang Sheng knows who Don Quixote is. That is the most famous literary image in Spain...

"Glad you've found your job again, young man, I think you now have a chance to realize your dreams."

Chang Sheng came to his senses - he has encountered such things as time travel and cheating, and a mere Don Quixote is not a big deal...

After reacting, he remembered what he should do.

"I want to thank you, er... what should I call you, Monsieur Don Quixote?"

"I think 'Old Man' is a good title." Don Quixote laughed.

Chang Sheng also smiled: "I must thank you, old man. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have this opportunity..."

"You have won this opportunity yourself, young man," said Don Quixote, smiling.

"You fought for it yourself?" Chang Sheng thought for a while, and then found the key, "You mean if I didn't give you half of the bread in my hand at the beginning, but just waved you away, wouldn't there be no future? story?"

Don Quixote pinched his goatee and laughed.

He didn't give the answer, but Chang Sheng already knew the answer.

But he still has questions: "Why you, old man? I thought it was God at first, old man..."

"God is very busy. There are so many people asking him to do things all over the world. He can't be busy at all. So I'm the only one who has more leisure... Who in the world would pray to a fool who charged at a windmill?"

Don Quixote was laughing at himself.

But Chang Sheng didn't laugh along with him,

Instead, he shook his head: "You are not a fool, old man."

"Oh?" Don Quixote was not surprised by Chang Sheng's reaction, and when he heard Chang Sheng say that, he looked at him with interest. "Why?"

"Although it's really stupid of you to charge at that windmill, but that's the average person's opinion. Because normal people would never do it... But the reason they wouldn't do it is because they know they have no chance of winning. Doomed to lose What is the point of the battle? But because you are stupid, only you dare to launch such a charge when facing an enemy that is too powerful to be defeated at all. I think so, I admire you very much, this kind of Courage is not something everyone can possess.”

"But I still failed, didn't I?" Don Quixote spread his hands.

"But those who dare not charge are not even qualified to fail, and naturally they are not qualified to win." Chang Sheng said.

"Your statement is quite interesting, ha." Don Quixote nodded and smiled in satisfaction, and then said to Chang Sheng: "But this is why I am willing to help you."

"Isn't it because I gave you half a slice of bread?"

"That's just a test for you. The reason is that the two of us are fools in the eyes of others. Hahaha!" At this point, Don Quixote laughed happily.

"I challenged the windmill, but what about you? You spat at Real Madrid, and you challenged Real Madrid as well. For you, Real Madrid is probably a more terrifying monster than the windmill?" Don Quixote looked at Chang Sheng said.

Chang Sheng chuckled and scratched the back of his head.

Before he left, he uttered such bold words to Real Madrid's deputy director of youth training: "You will regret it sooner or later!"

This means that he has issued a challenge to Real Madrid. One day, he will use practical actions to make Real Madrid regret their original decision!

This is the decision he made in his heart when he was kicked out by Real Madrid.

Don Quixote was right, for him Real Madrid was like a giant windmill, and he was poor, stupid Don Quixote. In the eyes of the world, there is absolutely no possibility for him to defeat this powerful enemy.

In the end, Don Quixote's spear was broken by the wings of the windmill, and he swept out with his horse and man.

What about yourself?

Will it end the same way?

But in any case, this is not the reason to shrink back in front of the huge windmill of Real Madrid.

Maybe Real Madrid won't remember humiliating a nobody.

But Chang Sheng will not let them go.

It's about your honor and dignity.

"...Of course, in the eyes of others, your decision must be as stupid as my challenge to the windmill. It is ridiculous, crazy, and unreasonable. But those are mediocre." Don Quixote continued. "You don't need to care about and understand what philistines think. Because they are philistines, and philistines are philistines because they can't even think, let alone try. We are knights, even if A crazy knight is also a knight. For a real knight, courage is the most important quality. When a knight faces a battle that cannot be escaped and must be fought, even if the enemy is a hundred times stronger than himself, he must stand up the spear in his hand. charge!"

Don Quixote grew more and more agitated, until at last he simply shouted.

Seeing his appearance, the scene that emerged before Chang Sheng's eyes was a man wearing strange armor, riding a skinny horse, straightened his spear, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and then rushed towards the spinning windmill. figure...

Such a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind, and he didn't know where he saw it.

"Don Quixote is the image of perpetual progress."

※※※

When Chang Sheng woke up from the dream, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.

He sat on the bed, the sunlight from outside the window slanted in and projected on the wall, shining brightly.

Looking at the real room in front of him, Chang Sheng's thoughts were still stuck in an illusory dream.

The last words of Don Quixote were still in his mind:

"Challenging the windmill and challenging Real Madrid are both a symbol of courage and the will to never admit defeat. This is determined by your character. There are countless possibilities in life, but you choose the one full of thorns, but what you see The scenery will also be unique. By your side, all kinds of human emotions will be staged in a more exaggerated way. Maybe someone hates you without asking why, and maybe someone loves you without paying back. But no matter what difficulties you encounter, think about it If you want a huge windmill in front of your road, that is your goal. But before you reach this goal, you will encounter all kinds of windmills, and you must defeat them. No matter how powerful and outrageous you encounter The enemy must show the courage to go forward and charge!"

"That's all I can help you with. You have to walk the rest of the way, young man. I wish you good luck. It's not easy to fight against windmills. You really need good luck."

He really didn't expect that it was the famous Don Quixote who helped him.

But... Don Quixote's words really have some truth.

Because both myself and Don Quixote are lunatics trying to challenge the windmill.

For the current self, Real Madrid is even more powerful than the windmill.

But so what? Could it be possible to admit defeat and go around?

But there is no getting around it.

Real Madrid is not the only windmill in world football. If you go around every windmill that you can't beat, then you should just stay in Getafe and don't go anywhere.

Some people are very rational and smart. When they find that this road does not work, they will choose another road, detour and detour, and they can always go around.

But in fact, there are always some situations that you can't get around. There is no other way but this way.

If you don't take this path, you have to go back the same way, and all your efforts will be in vain.

What should we do at this time?

Smart people will choose to stop, or simply go back the same way, they will say to others, but also to themselves: "Sometimes, it takes more courage to choose to give up."

Everyone believes what they say and praises their "courage".

But at times like this, fools and lunatics will choose to bump into it head-on. Then "win" the mockery of others.

"Look at that self-indulgent fool!"

If others think they are a Don Quixote trying to challenge the windmill, let them think so!

Because I want to move forward forever!

Chang Sheng jumped off the bed.

Today will be his first day as youth team coach.

A thousand miles begins with a single step.

His first step as a coach must be done well.

He waved his hand at the blue sky outside the window: "Chong—————!"
