After all, the Yao Kingdom is located in the Shining Gold Plains and has retained some of its fierce customs. There is no taboo against seeing blood on the birthday of King Yao.
Because of the frequent occurrence of accidents, the imperial martial arts competition is the most anticipated event of every birthday ceremony.
As soon as the dance hall was cleared, two people rushed forward, first saluted the Yao King, and then hugged each other's fists, and the battle began without any nonsense.
The first group is often used as a warm-up for the subsequent fights. Yu Wenyong explained to He Lingchuan that one of the two people on the stage was a disciple of the Gu family and the other was a guard of the Bu family.
His two families had been at odds for many years, and they often looked for masters to compete with each other in Yaowang Shoudian.
King Yao and his ministers didn't mind this at all, and everyone watched the excitement. They settled their personal grievances, everyone got what they needed, and everyone was happy.
The competition in the first group was fierce but fast. The guards of the Bu family were superior in skills and won by breaking two ribs of their opponent.
From the very beginning, it is not just a performance, it also sets the tone of blood and violence.
After the warm-up, the atmosphere in Yuquan Palace has become lively, so the next group comes on stage.
The fight was lively on the stage, and all the officials in the audience were pointing their fingers. He Lingchuan did not expect that such a solemn occasion could actually open a handicap. Some people were betting on winning or losing, some were betting on the score, and they also supported betting against each other, just like a handicap.
The martial arts training hall in Longcheng.
Fan Shuang stayed on the sidelines and placed three or four bets in a row.
In fact, as soon as the imperial competition started, the station officials could leave. But almost no one left the scene, and no one wanted to miss the exciting fighting.
He Lingchuan, Yu Wenyong, and Qu Ruhai played two games against each other, and both resulted in one win and one loss. In theory, there was no loss or profit.
At the end of another competition, one of them had his right arm cut off, and blood spattered on the delicate white flowers, which was shocking.
There was a round of applause at the scene, and the atmosphere was immediately pushed to a climax.
He Lingchuan smiled and extended his hand to Qu Ruhai: "I won, give in, give in."
Qu Ruhai rolled his eyes, took out twelve taels of gold, and slapped it on the table: "Take it!"
They bet three times, and the other party won twice. Is the guy named He lucky, or does he have a poisonous eye?
At this time, General Chongwu went up to propose a toast to King Yao, who slowly said: "You are about to go to the north. Xue Aiqing's former opponents will also be your opponents. As the saying goes, know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle."
"Yes." General Chongwu's eyes flashed slightly, trying to figure out your intention.
Xue Zongwu and his opponent? What do you mean?
His position was requested by the Chief Supervisor, and others had long labeled him as Qingyang. The more tense the relationship between Yao Wang and the Qingyang Supervisor became, the more embarrassed Chongwu would be. Fortunately, he did not have to stay in Tianshui City for long, and he would spend most of his time in Tianshui City in the future.
All on the Northern Line.
King Yao had his eyelids drooped, but when he heard Qu Ruhai slamming the table, he took a deep look at Qu Ruhai and sighed: "They are all our country's warriors performing arts, as if they are entertaining themselves. It is inevitable for foreign envoys to watch for a long time."
It’s monotonous. It’s better to have fun alone than to have fun together. As hosts, we should always have a guest and a host to enjoy themselves.”
Even Yu Wenyong understood such an obvious hint. He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and was about to invite his wife. General Chongwu had already taken the lead and threw the glass onto Qu Ruhai's table.
Although it was thrown casually, the silver cup fell on the table very lightly, making a clanging sound and sliding forward half a foot, stopping just in front of Qu Ruhai's arm.
Throw a cup and invite a fight.
Qu Ruhai's eyes narrowed and he looked up.
General Chongwu smiled at him: "Zong Zongzhang, are we close and intimate?"
As the head of Zuo Zong of Luodian, Qu Ruhai became arrogant after coming to Tianshui City. Today, he also acted as if there was no one else around at the Yao King's birthday ceremony, talking and laughing loudly.
King Yao had long wanted to teach him a lesson, and he had a strong sense of martial arts, so he invited him to fight.
Qu Ruhai stood up and pinched his knuckles, nonchalantly: "Okay, but is this going to end, or is it a life and death fight?"
General Chongwu looked at King Yao, who didn't even move his eyebrows: "Zong Qu has been a guest for a long time. How can there be any reason to beat a guest to death?"
Although fighting with swords and spears is allowed in Yuquan Palace, Qu Ruhai has a special status and is here as a guest. If he is really killed here, how can the Luodian Kingdom be willing to let it go?
How can one recognize the rules of Yao Kingdom in Luodian?
Chongwu understood, and clasped his fists at Qu Ruhai: "Please."
Qu Ruhai laughed and strode away from the table.
Qingyang changed his sitting position, rested his forehead on his hands, glanced over General Chongwu, and glanced at He Lingchuan.
One is the newly promoted Zhenbei General, and the other is the Zuo Zongchang of Luodian Kingdom. Their status is not comparable to that of the previous groups of warriors.
What's more, these two people went to the northern front, and they are likely to be opponents on the battlefield in the future.
Now that they are going to see the real thing here in advance, isn't that always interesting? People on and off the court were rushing to place bets.
Gu Xuan moved over and asked He Lingchuan: "Who do you like this time? I'll play with you."
He Lingchuan asked Yu Wenyong: "Where is Brother Yuwen?"
It was really hard to choose. Yu Wenyong stroked his chin and hesitated for a while, then said: "I choose Chongwu."
These two people have outstanding cultivation and are both generals. Yu Wenyong is actually not sure which of them can win; and King Yao ordered "click until the end", so many killing skills on the battlefield cannot be used, let alone
Good assessment.
However, General Chongwu will soon become Yu Wenyong's colleague. The two of them are in the same town in northern Xinjiang, and they look down and don't see each other all day long. If he escorts Yu Wenyong like a sea to win, it will hurt the feelings of his colleagues.
He Lingchuan called the palace officials to investigate and found that Qu Ruhai's odds were astonishingly high. The Yao State officials behind him usually bet on the victory of the most powerful military general.
They may not like Chongwu, but they definitely hate Qu Ruhai even more. This is a matter of stance.
On the other hand, the odds of the Chongwu General are too low. If you bet on the Chongwu General, you will not make any money at most by investing one tael of silver.
"What's the point of this?" He Lingchuan shook his head repeatedly, "Well, I'm not a Yao person anyway. I'll bet Qu Ruhai to win. Is there anyone else who can compete with me?"
After that, he took out the banknotes and spread them on the table, arranging them one by one! "Here are two thousand taels of banknotes!"
Gu Xuan: "..."
So casual?
Two thousand taels can buy a good house in Tianshui City, but not in the central city. When everyone heard the sound, they saw that there was an opponent, so the officials below placed bets one after another, all betting on Chongwu to win.
It’s correct and you can make more money, why not?
He Lingchuan also smiled broadly. Asking again, Qu Ruhai's odds have increased to four times. In other words, as long as Qu Ruhai wins, He Lingchuan can earn 8,000 taels of silver.
King Yao and Qingyang both glanced at him and said nothing.
Gu Xuan said: "Brother He and I also have one thousand taels."
With a bang, one million dollars was deposited.
"Aren't you afraid that your money will be wasted?" He Lingchuan summoned the palace officials and took out a stack of banknotes, "Bet on a tie again, three thousand taels."
