Chapter 16: Sweeping the Seven Star Park (Part I)
Seven Star Park is located near the Seven Star Island Scenic Area, by the lake, not connected to the scenic spot, is specially built for the citizens of Xinghu Lake to enjoy the cool and leisure, usually there are nearby residents, most of the tourists will not go to play.
At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the sunlight was no longer so strong, and you could see the old people on the road, holding a small horse and a fan, walking towards Qixing Park.
Yu Le rode a small electric donkey, and soon came to the gate of Seven Star Park, after parking the car, he took out a small cage containing crickets from the basket, put it in his small bag, and then walked towards the park with a high spirit.
He has already inquired about some forums in Xinghu, some old men who like to fight crickets, they like to go to Seven Star Park to make an appointment when they have nothing to do, they don't gamble money, winning or losing is just a pack of ten yuan of cigarettes, fighting is fun, and playing is traditional culture.
It's okay to be idle, the old people who raise birds and crickets are all retired and have spare money in their hands, and in the eyes of their children, the old people have nothing to do to raise a bird and fight a cricket, which is better than being stuffy at home, and similarly, it is better than being deceived by those health care product salesmen.
When Yu Le came to Seven Star Park, he was ready to use the best cricket students he had cultivated to sweep through the old men of Seven Star Park and let them feel the fear brought by the magical pet store.
Entering the Seven Star Park, you can see the old men and grandmothers who come to enjoy the shade everywhere, there are also some young people, the park is full of trees, and it is close to the lake, and a gust of wind blows from time to time, which is very comfortable.
Some sit on chairs in the park, others sit on the lawn and play poker with friends, and in some quiet areas surrounded by trees, there are also those who play mahjong with the sound of crackling.
Along the way, Yu Le did not stop, and went straight to the northeast corner of the park, and the information he got on the forum was that these old men who love crickets will go to this place to fight.
When he arrived at the northeast corner of the park, he looked around for a while, but he didn't find any particularly densely populated places, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
At this time, Yu Le saw an old man with a cricket jar in his hand and a dejected face walking out of a forest, and immediately asked, "Uncle, where is the place where these crickets are fighting in Seven Star Park." β
"Where the crickets are fighting, do you see it, just turn a corner behind the woods. The old man turned to the woods not far behind him.
Then, he glanced at Yu Le, and said earnestly: "Young man, you also like crickets, this line of water is too deep, you can't come in easily, you can't find a good cricket if you are inexperienced, not to mention, you may suffer." β
"Look at me, no one can beat the crickets that I bought for five hundred, and I was bitten into a cripple, and I lost two packs of cigarettes, and I felt sorry for me. β
"Yes, uncle, there are too many black-hearted businessmen now, you must be careful, I'll just take a look at it and learn from the side. β
Looking at the half-crippled cricket in the old man's jar, Yu Le showed sympathy on his face, nodded and agreed, and did not rush to tell his magical pet shop, be patient, and put a long line to catch more old man.
"The young man has a good mentality, let's go, I'll go with you to have a look." The old man beckoned and said, with a relieved smile on his face that he had saved a teenager.
"Okay, thank you, uncle. Yu Le thanked him, walked through the woods with the old man, and turned a corner, at this time, there was a commotion ahead, he raised his eyes and looked, his face showed a touch of surprise, it was really a mountain and a river with no way, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village.
Behind this wood, there is a clearing, surrounded by trees, and people who don't often mingle in the park don't know that there is such a place inside.
At this time, the whole open space, there are several places surrounded by the crowd, and the sound of cheering and cheering comes from inside, making the scene very lively, and at the same time, there are some bird calls mixed with it, and his eyes look ahead, and there are some bird cages hanging on the trees next to the crowd.
"Come with me, young man, and be quiet. The old man beckoned again, took Yu Le to stand on the edge of one of the crowds, and stretched his neck to look inside.
Seeing that the old man was as careful as an underground party joint, Yu Le was a little funny, standing next to the crowd, looking inside, and sure enough, a small table was placed in the center of the crowd, and in a ceramic jar above, two crickets were fighting hotly.
Then, he went to the place where the other crickets were fighting, and also used Xiao Shuai's glaucoma, most of which showed green light, but one or two showed red light, and in the end, as expected, he was quickly defeated in the battle.
After watching for a while, he returned to the old man's side, and when he was about to find a chance to appear, an old man's teasing voice sounded next to him, "Wang Shunhua, weren't you angry just now, why did you come back again, are you going to feed your half-limped cricket to feed my bird." β
Yu Le fixed his eyes and saw that the old man's eyes were on the old man who brought him over, and now he knew why the old man came in cautiously.
"Li Haochang, let go of your shit, I was cheated, your cricket cost five thousand, and my one only cost five hundred, and it is natural that you can't beat it, it's interesting to hold on to it." The old man Wang Shunhua was naturally unconvinced, and retorted a little angrily.
"Haha, the vision is not good, and if you want to save money, you have to give up the capital when you play crickets, why don't you feed the cricket to my bird, give you five yuan, and you can get some money back. The old man named Li Haochang didn't intend to let the old man go like this.
"Yes, Lao Wang, anyway, your cricket is not saved, it is better to use it. Another old man also smiled and agreed.
"Don't get too complacent, and soon your crickets will be killed by others. Wang Shunhua cursed angrily.
At this moment, Yu Le stood up without hesitation, "You guys are too much, form a group to bully the kind-hearted Uncle Wang, I want to duel with you and vent my anger for Uncle Wang." β
Seeing Yu Le's appearance, the crowd of onlookers suddenly burst into laughter.
"Young man, you are so young, we can't beat this old bone, this is the old king's own fault, don't blame us. Li Haochang looked at Yu Le with some amusement, waved his hand and said, such an interesting young man, I don't know where he came from.
Yu Le walked to the table with a cold look on his face, took out the cricket cage from his bag, and put it on it, "I'm talking about the cricket duel, everyone who bullied Uncle Wang came over today, I want to defeat you one by one and be angry for him." β
Seeing Yu Le take out a cricket cage, everyone burst out of laughter again, looking at him with interest on their faces, this young man didn't know where to buy crickets, so he wanted to fight with these senior players, a little too naΓ―ve.
Wang Shunhua also hurriedly walked over, looked at the small cage covered with black cloth, and persuaded: "Young man, this is my business, you don't care, these guys take out a cricket at random, it's all thousands of yuan, you can't win." β
