"The game is about to start. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In the midst of the chat, Tony saw the scene in front of him on the left and shouted excitedly, and the surrounding audience responded with cheers, confirming Tony's suspicions.

Turning his head, he could see that on the starting line diagonally ahead, the riders were already on horseback and adjusting their positions, the horsemen next to them were putting the final touches on the horses, and the two referees were checking the horses from compartment to compartment, and the tension and restlessness of the race about to start began to fill the air.

Many of the spectators stood up, cheering and shouting.

At this point, the audience can see interesting things about British culture. Some spectators waved their coats or hats and screamed as if this were a nightclub party, others rolled up their horses, tapped the palm of their other hand in anticipation, looked intently at the horses they bet on, and had heated discussions with their partners from time to time, while others raised their heads gracefully and reservedly with their hands behind their backs, looking at the starting line in the distance......

This is the United Kingdom.

The aristocratic culture was retained, the commoner culture was derived, and the elite class also had its own culture. Contradicting each other, conflicting with each other, but merging with each other, and finally forming their own unique culture. Just one racecourse, you can see all kinds of life.

Lu Li also joined the ranks of everyone, standing up together, waving his right hand, and shouting loudly, the whole audience was like a powder keg that exploded, deafening, shaking the mountains, and the noisy heat wave swept in, even compared to Madison Garden Square.

Gradually, the shouting calmed down, and Lu Li also sat down, and then saw Catherine with a smile on her face. Lu Li realized that he seemed to be a little out of shape, and laughed twice, but Catherine clapped her hands with laughter, "Young man, it's a good thing to be a little energetic, a good thing." ”

As he spoke, the race was about to start, and everyone's eyes were on the starting line.

The air at the scene suddenly froze, everyone's eyes were cast in the same direction, there was no sound at all, the faint neighing of animals in the distance seemed to have dissipated, all the air currents were surging towards the horses and riders on the starting line, and even the trajectory of the sunlight was clearly visible.

Instantaneous solidification, instantaneous bursting, and a "bang" gunshot, breaking the deadlock. Race, start.

Pedaling and kicking, the boiling and tumbling sand and dust created a scene of thousands of horses galloping, even from a distance, you can see that the muscles of the horses and riders are tense to the extreme, the sharpness that is ready to go is like an arrow from the string, breaking through the air, at the moment of departure, all the horses go hand in hand, the turbulent air waves make the brain and breath fall into a state of stop, jaw-dropping.

Lu Li had watched a speed race at a cowboy convention before, but it was only a one-horse time trial, and the venue was only half the size of what he was looking at, so there was no comparison at all.

At this moment, Lu Li knew what shock was, and he could even clearly feel his insignificance, obviously they were sitting in the stands watching, but they had the illusion that they were standing on the runway, as if the mantis arm was a car, and the shock spread along the soles of their feet to every corner of their bodies, and they could be shattered by the collision at any time.

"Whew", like a tornado, the horses swept in front of the eyes, Lu Li's sight involuntarily firmly locked on the horses, quickly swept over, the light and shadow that evolved into an assembly line, the extreme speed of the extreme real and clear in front of the eyes. It's really shocking!

Lu Li is not alone. Even those seasoned fans couldn't help but clench their fists and cheer on the horses in the race, and the excitement of the scene rose again, and you could even see someone standing up in the audience on the next floor, constantly waving his right fist, hoarse, and shouting violently.

After the first corner, the horses gradually opened up and divided into front and back order. However, Lu Li knew that this was just the beginning, just like the 10,000-meter race in the Olympics, the ranking of the first 200 meters was not accurate at all.

But at this moment, the unexpected happened.

When a racing horse was turning, the rider seemed to be brushed and lost his center of gravity, and then the whole horse fell heavily on the track, raising a large cloud of dust, "Oh!" Lu Li's excited emotions suddenly froze into ice, and he involuntarily gasped, and he was not alone.

The surrounding pumping sounds were continuous, and the audience, which was still boiling one second ago, reached freezing point a second later.

The place where the accident occurred was so close at hand that Lu Li could clearly see the fallen horse breathing heavily, a low neighing moaning in pain, and the rider was also thrown to the side, lying motionless on the ground. Even if there is no burst of blood, the simple picture reveals a tragic tragedy, and even some cruelty, which makes people unbearable to look at directly.

Lu Li was stunned in place. This was only the first time he had watched a horse race, and although he had heard that racing was prone to accidents, he had heard that it was a completely different scene.

The two girls in the front row covered their mouths in surprise, and suddenly the tears slipped down, and they sobbed uncontrollably, and a sad atmosphere slowly spread.

After the horse fell to the ground, he was never able to get up, but just lay in place, gasping for breath, and the situation was not optimistic.

In just 30 seconds, the race crew had already entered the course and used a small crane to transport the horses to the grass in the center, and a group of staff members quickly set up a makeshift black tent to treat the horses.

At the same time, a stretcher trotted in the direction of the rider, but the rider regained consciousness and relied on his own strength to slowly stand up, although the situation still seemed uncertain, but at least it was not worse, which made the audience breathe a sigh of relief.

However, looking at the black tent, it still makes people feel a little heavy.

All of this happened in the middle of a flash, and by the time the track was completely cleared, the riders who were still racing were already at the end of the track, about to finish the first lap. They had a total of three laps today.

After a brief accident, the atmosphere calmed down a little when the horses came galloping again, but the experienced spectators quickly returned to normal and threw themselves into the race again, enthusiastically shouting for their horses.

Lu Li had seen something similar at the Rodeo before, and he had also heard that horses should be classified into different categories, such as racing horses, riding horses, or agricultural horses. If it's a race, it's simple, if you can win the race, you can continue to gallop, if you can't, you will be eliminated, and you may even be humanely destroyed if the average competitiveness cannot meet the requirements of the current stage of the race.

He knows that this is a world of natural selection.

However, seeing the process of survival of the fittest with my own eyes and seeing the screening of interests first, it is inevitable that I am a little embarrassed.

With a slight sigh, Lu Li once again focused on the game. The three-lap race was over quickly, and the round was so close that it was just a difference of a horse's head, and in the end a brown horse called the Naughty Clown won the eventual victory.

Neither Brandon nor Tony bet on the right one, "That's an upset." Brandon explained, "Everybody is bullish on the Chevon Lightning to win. "The Chewen Lightning were overtaken at the last turn, and even though they were in full pursuit, they only finished third, and the margin was very narrow.

"You say, will it be okay?" After celebrating the victory of the naughty clown, Lu Li's eyes still couldn't leave the black tent, and he couldn't help but ask.

He doesn't like animals, and even now, he still stumbles with them. But life on the ranch gradually changed his outlook, and he began to learn how to get along with animals.

"We can only pray that it's okay. Catherine replied, "But that's what life is, isn't it? so fragile." From the moment we are born, we are avoiding death, but one day we can't avoid it. ”

Lu Li knows these truths, but many times, life is not composed of "truths", and many wisdom can only be given by the precipitation of time. Looking at Catherine's calm side face, Lu Li still sighed softly.

Then another round of racing was held, and then Lu Li saw that the black tent had been withdrawn, and the horse had stood up again, and two staff members guarded its side, gently stroking its back, patting it slowly, it shook its head, shook its body, step by step, step by step, and took a step.

An irrepressible excitement surged into his heart, Lu Li "Huo" stood up immediately, looked at the horse in disbelief, the joy of life was rampant in his chest, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and he couldn't even make a sound.

At this time, the voice of the announcement came from the radio, "Gentlemen, ladies, the horse that was injured in the race just now, the dancing Huntington, after a preliminary examination, is not in serious trouble for the time being......" The words of the explanation were still echoing, but the audience could not bear it, applause and whistles rang out one after another, and everyone applauded enthusiastically in the direction of the horse.

Lu Li was no exception, he looked back at Catherine and exchanged glances, Catherine's face was also filled with a happy smile, which made the corners of Lu Li's mouth also rise, and then applauded vigorously.

Immediately afterwards, Tony and Brandon also stood up, and the audience applauded. In sight, the dancing Huntington walked briskly around his surroundings twice, the sun shining down, gilding his shiny hair with a layer of gold.
