Chapter 29: Sunmen Change (Part 1)
the next day.
The sky is a little cloudy and the wind is a little cool.
From the morning, there was an inexplicable solemn atmosphere floating in the air.
As we all know, in ancient times, after the autumn harvest, the people were generally relatively idle, so...
Before the day came, the 100-day striking crowds were already crowded.
Since Song Xiang put out this arena, it has been more than fifty days since he was the most lively today.
Not to mention that it only took a day, the anecdotes about this gambling battle spread throughout Runan City in just one morning; the streets, alleys, teahouses, restaurants, stories from stories to waiters, from worker to gangsters... are all chewing on this matter.
Everyone knows that just before today, Sun Yixie, who became famous in Luoyang not long ago, wanted to teach the evil young man Song Xiang in Runan City a lesson in the 100-day campaign.
The people were so happy to hear about this. Over the years, Song Xiang relied on his family's power to bully men and women in the city, acted as a domineering man and blessing, and did countless evils, but no one helped the people stand up.
There is no way to do this, because bullies like Song Xiang who have official backgrounds are usually not managed by people in the Jianghu Road, but by Green Forest Road. However, because his father was too powerful to invite the masters to come to protect the house, even "swordsman" level on the Green Forest Road, like Zhao Tiaoteng, have been killed, so over the years, no one on the Green Forest Road has dared to touch the young master of the Song family...
If Song Xiang did something a little more, it would really reach the point of "disastering the country and the people", then it would be easier. At that time, there would be many Green Forest masters who were more powerful than Zhao Tiaoteng to do it. Unfortunately, he did not achieve that.
Until today, everyone finally waited for it.
Even if Song Xiang had nothing to do after the ring today, as long as he could see him being defeated, the people would be happy.
"Come!"
"Hey, here we come!"
"Everyone, let's make your debut soon, the three young heroes are here!"
As soon as the Wei Dynasty arrived, Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai and Lei Buji just walked to approach the arena, and the people cheered.
The masses not only took the initiative to give in, but also cheered up next to them.
"Young Master Sun pleads for the people, he is really a hero!"
"Young Master Sun stands out for us!"
"Young Master Sun, be careful. That Song Xiang is a despicable villain. Don't be plotted against by him!"
In addition to those who praise him, there are also many people who say he can remind him to worry about him.
Sun Yixie just smiled all over his face, did not respond, and moved forward calmly; Lei Buji also followed him and had fun.
Only Huang Donglai, with a clear eye, complained in his heart: "You are really simple and simple. In my opinion, you should remind Song Xiangbe that he was plotted against by Brother Sun..."
In this way, the three of them came to the ring with the support of the masses.
Because the people were so popular, even the evil slaves of the Song Mansion were swaying on the side of Taiwan, they could not suppress the call.
"Hmph..." At this time, Song Xiang could not wait to stand on the stage. Seeing Sun Yixi and the others approaching, he immediately snorted coldly and said loudly, "Do you really dare to come?"
"That's right, can I still be afraid of beating a rooster like you?" Sun Yixie replied with a smile.
After saying that, he took a few steps forward, waved at the Song family servants who were surrounding the Taiwan side, and signaled them to get out of the way with a move like driving away the flies.
Those people didn't dare to stop him, so they could only give up a corner of the ring.
Then, Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai and Lei Buji walked upstairs from the stairs in the corner of the arena one after another.
When Song Xiang saw that all three of them were coming up, he smiled: "Ha, what are you doing? Do you think one can't beat me, do you want three to go together?"
Sun Yixie said, "Take care of you... I am enough alone. My two brothers are just coming up to watch the battle." As he said, he pointed to the platform next to the ring, which was the same height as the ring, where Ma Zhao and Zhao Tiaotiao were sitting. "You can arrange two seats for them there."
"Ah?" Song Xiang tilted his cheeks and twisted the corners of his mouth, "Why?"
"Yes." Sun Yixie seemed to have guessed that this guy would respond like this, and immediately continued, "Why can your people sit on the stage and watch, and my brother has to stand on the stage? Are you doing something shameful on the stage, afraid of being discovered by others?"
He said this, paused for a moment, and before Song Xiang could reply, he immediately turned to Huang Donglai and said, "Hey~ Brother Huang, I saw that the brother was beaten from the stage yesterday, and it was a bit strange. Could it be that there was something wrong with this?"
"That's right~" Huang Donglai also answered sarcastically, "How could this one be installed for more than fifty days?"
They sang together like this, as if they were hinting that all the competitions in the fifty days before Song Xiang were won by some kind of fraudulent means.
The people below came with a standpoint, but when they heard this, they immediately started to make a fuss.
"I'm afraid there's a fraud on this station!"
"Did you, who is surnamed Song, make the fraud afraid that someone will be seen?"
"What fair fight? It turns out to be a lie!"
Once this public opinion is brought up, the truth is actually not important.
But there is still a saying here... Song Xiang himself did not cheat on subjectively. Even in the fight with Tang Weizhi yesterday, he didn't know that Zhao Tiaotiao was secretly helping him.
Since everyone around him coaxed Song Xiang, including his two masters and bodyguards, also served their Song family's food, and kept face for the young master everywhere, Song Xiang always felt that his martial arts skills were really good. His words "The magical powers are the best" yesterday were sincere.
Maybe you will think he is very mentally retarded, but if you think about it from the perspective of others, you will find that this is normal.
In that era when information is blocked and communication is underdeveloped, if a person lives in a pampered life since childhood, he will hardly suffer any setbacks. Most people around him only say good things to him. If he makes mistakes or even violates the king's law, someone will help him cover up the environment. This is how he will.
For a child who grew up in a palace, it is natural to have people to take care of all his food and daily life; for a child who grew up begging on the roadside, it is natural to go out to beg for food every day and often go hungry.
You can tell the children who grew up in the palace that there are people in this world who are still begging for food, or you can tell the beggar that there are people in this world that are clothes to reach out to eat, but they can only imagine but cannot understand what they hear.
And if no one ever told them that there are people in this world who are completely opposite to their situation, they are likely to think that kind of person does not exist.
Song Xiang is a person who is used to the "giant baby environment", so his cognition is different from that of most people.
If he really had self-knowledge, he would never have been able to play a "100-day striking game". He would have been back and practiced hard long ago. Let's try to catch up with Master Ma Zhao, a second-rate player in the world...
"You fart!" Sure enough, after being led by Sun and Huang, Song Xiang jumped up in anger.
He, the bully of Song, usually does evil and is not afraid of being criticized, but he can't stand it.
If you say that he beat someone to death, he would recognize the thug woman, but he would not be responsible. In other words, the "responsibility" in his cognition is to be scolded by his own son, and then his father sent someone to threaten others, bribe the government, and pay some money...
But if you want to wrongly accuse him of making a falsification, he feels aggrieved because he really doesn't have one.
"Okay! Come and bring them two stools! You want to see it, right? Let's see enough!" After Song Xiang finished scolding, he immediately instructed his servants to move the stools.
The evil slaves in the Song Mansion were quite efficient. Soon after, they "borrowed" two stools from the nearby teahouse and placed them on the empty seat next to Ma Zhao and Zhao Tiaotiao.
Huang Donglai and Lei Buji greeted Sun Yixie and sat down.
What are they doing? To put it bluntly... this is to prevent the scene from happening yesterday.
Ma Zhao and Zhao Tiaotiao also knew what they meant - there were such a close place where the young master of the Yellow Sect and the Young Master Lei were sitting. If you two do those small moves, it would be awkward to say it.
"Two seniors, I didn't come up to say hello to you yesterday. I'm so rude. I'm sorry, thank you." Huang Donglai was very polite when he sat down, and he even smiled and greeted Ma Zhao and the others with a smile.
Lei Buji also imitated Brother Huang and bowed to the two of them.
As the saying goes, if you don’t hit someone with a smile, Ma Zhao and Zhao Tiaotiao looked at each other, and after thinking about it, they felt that they could not be as nervous as these two juniors.
So both of them returned the gifts more politely.
"Young Master Huang doesn't have to be too polite. Zhao is just a bodyguard who uses money to do business on thirteen ways. He can't be considered your senior." Zhao Tiao said.
"Yes, Young Master Huang, Young Master Lei, Young Master Sun, and Young Master Sun, are all young heroes who have become famous recently. Ma compares with you and sighs that he is not as good as you." Ma Zhao also responded.
Both of them kept their figures relatively low, of course this was also what they deserved.
People like them who are quite capable in Taoism are not very glorious to be guests of wealthy families, but they are not enough to be harmful to the world...
"The two seniors are too modest." Huang Donglai still praised him after hearing the other party's words, "The name of 'Yan Hui Yizhu' and 'Shadowless Sword' is still very important when it comes to saying it, and it is not comparable to our juniors."
His words were also telling these two people that after this day, I had already found out about your two in the city.
Ma Zhao and Zhao Tiaoteng were not surprised by this. Their affairs in the Song Mansion were no secret, and many people in the city knew about it.
"Where are, in front of the 'Three Essences of Yellow Gate', our little tricks... can only be regarded as a trick of being a scammer." Ma Zhao said again.
He also has something to say, and the general meaning is - I know that Young Master Huang, you have a trick to play with poison, and you don't have to pretend to be a grandson with me. Since everyone has the ability, it is best not to make the situation stiff.
They were circling around openly and secretly, while the two on the stage were all openly.
"Did you bring Sanqianliang with you today?" Sun Yixie asked.
"Hmph...isn't it just three thousand taels?" Song Xiang was waiting for him to ask this, "Come on, bring it up."
Before he finished speaking, several servants who had already been waiting for the order came up with a small box.
The box was put on the ground and opened, and the white flowers were exposed, and it was filled with silver; including the box itself, at least one person weighed multiple people.
The people under the Taiwan were so straight that they could not see such money in their entire lives. Many people couldn't help but exclaim.
Song Xiang was quite helpful to the reactions of those people. He showed pride on his face and said, "Where is yours?"
Sun Yixie was calm and took out a few silver notes from his arms. This was the remaining part of the "Six thousand taels of motherly love" he carried when he came out of Hangzhou, which happened to be three thousand taels.
"Do you want to find someone to go to the silver number for verification?" Sun Yixie grabbed the silver note between his fingers and shook it gently.
"Then there is no need." Song Xiang did not care much about this. He wanted to fight Sun Yixi today, mainly for face. Money was just a concept to him and it was not important.
"Okay." Sun Yixie said, stepped forward a few steps, put his silver notes into the box containing the silver, and then closed the box.
After he finished all this, Song Xiang gave a wink at the servants and asked them to take the box to the place next to the ring where they were originally used to offer silver rewards and make it public.
Sun Yixie walked back to the side of the ring and continued: "The bet is fine, let's talk about the rules."
"Rules?" Song Xiang asked suspiciously, "What rules?"
"Don't you tell the rules clearly when fighting?" Sun Yixie said, "Besides falling out of the ring, what else can be done and cannot be done? We have to explain it clearly in advance. Otherwise, what if someone cheats after the fight?"
"Hmph..." Song Xiang sneered, "I have been fighting here for more than fifty days, and no one is as particular as you."
"So you are an amateur," said Sun Yixie. "If you don't explain the rules clearly, if someone gives you a shot, kick your crotch, and destroys you, what do you say?"
Song Xiang really never thought about this... Song Xiang was suddenly a little scared when Sun Yixie reminded him.
"Uh... Then don't insert your eyes and kick your crotch, everything else is fine." Song Xiang continued.
"All do it?" Sun Yixie said, "Will you make the 'guy' work? What kind of swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, hidden weapons, lime powder... can these be used?"
"No, no." Song Xiang had never learned weapons, and he didn't know any hidden weapons. He naturally would not agree, so he immediately denied it impatiently.
"The last question." Sun Yixiu said this, paused for a moment, and then said, "I will never do anything that hurts people's lives on the ring... But I have no eyes. What if I hurt you today... After ten and a half months, the more you think about it at home, you will become more angry. You will be pissed out of old blood and you will be so angry that you can't pursue me, right?"
