"Big brother, what's going on with my brother?" Wu Ya suddenly asked.

"Uh...... I don't know much about this, and I don't know how I'm doing with Lao Ling......" Ji Qing touched his chin.

"Oh...... , but Brother Ji Qing, you are really amazing, you made a face at a young age, and you can tell a lot of strange stories. Uya's eyes twinkled with many small stars.

"What's the face...... That's the leader, the leader!"

"If you don't be in front of people now...... I'm going to see my brother, who's always going to fight people as a diner, and it's dangerous......"

"Don't worry, although your brother's qualifications are not as good as mine, he is not a mediocre person, and over time, he will definitely be able to become a great thing. Ji Qing rubbed her little head.

"I know our family must be in trouble right now, so ...... I hope that the big brother will take care of my brother more. ”

"Well, you have a heart. Ji Qing smiled, the little girl was young but unexpectedly sensible.

At this moment, the gate of Yongcheng City.

A corpse with its eyes gouged out and covered in blood was packed in a sack and hung on the roof of Yongcheng, and passers-by looked at the tragic condition of the corpse, and they all talked and pointed.

"Who is this?"

"I heard that it was a diner named Wushiqi from the Diao family. ”

"Alas, you can't be buried in the ground after death, and it is too miserable to be exposed to the city tower like this. ”

"What do you know?

"Yes, this Uskie is simply a disloyal and unrighteous person, and he deserves such an end!"

For a while, the discussion was instantly divided into two factions, one faction insisted that Wushi was an unfaithful and unrighteous person who deserved such an end, and the other faction was to defend Wuqi and announce to everyone that things were not so simple, and Wuqi was forced to die.

As for why the corpse is exposed on the top of the city tower, it is also because of Yongcheng's own geographical environment.

Yongcheng at the beginning of the establishment of the mountains and rivers, with water as a barrier, three hundred years after the first construction of the city wall, after several generations of operation, the wall stands dozens of zhang high, such a city wall height, even the master of the ground lock nine times also do not want to come and go freely.

So even if someone wants to secretly take the corpse off the city gate, even if it is a ground lock nine times, it is not easy to use.

"We have a lot of friendship with Wushiqi, how can he be a traitor?"

"Heh, befriending the villain, with the intention of being detrimental to the master's family, the charges are now clear. ”

"Such ambiguity is not enough to convince me!"

"Tell me clearly, what did he do unfaithfully and unjustly?"

"That's right, if the traitor really seeks glory, what does it matter if I spit on him together? But you just talk about it, but you can't come up with real evidence, so how can you convince me to wait for it?"

While the two sides were arguing, a young man wearing a hat, ragged clothes, but blind in one eye, walked into the crowd and said something sonorously:

"Wu Shiqi, a diner of the Diao family, on the occasion of the regular meeting in Yongcheng, maintained the reputation of the main family, attacked Chaofeng in a row, and fell down with exhaustion. ”

This can be called loyalty. ”

"For many years, he has begged for medicine for his mother to cure her illness and poured out all his family wealth, is this filial piety?"

"Wushi has always acted above board, knowing how to repay kindness, isn't this righteousness?"

"In this world, how can there be a reason for such righteous people to die in vain? If it is spread out, will it not be ridiculed by the people of the world?"

As soon as these words came out, the faction that supported Wushi for a while immediately became angry.

"Yes, yes, yes, how can such righteous men be humiliated like this, and we should defend the Wushiqi. ”

For a while, the crowd that supported Wuski, thinking that it was innocent, instantly gained the upper hand, but the young man took advantage of the opportunity of the argument between the two sides, but quietly disappeared from the crowd.

At this moment, Ling Mansion.

Ling Hao was sitting in the study and was writing the bamboo slips, but every few words he wrote had to be carefully considered before he started writing again.

"Childe, this is a cockfight that I just bought back not long ago, and it is claimed to be an invincible opponent in Yongcheng outside, and it cost a hundred gold. Su Lie came in with a big rooster with a majestic body in his hand.

"Oh, that's just right, it's a little boring to write homework, and it's not bad to go out and fight cocks. Ling Hao immediately stopped writing.

Cockfighting is a very common folk entertainment in ancient China, with a history of more than 2,800 years.

Almost all parts of the world have a tradition of cockfighting, which takes advantage of the aggressive nature of chicken-like birds (and other purposes) during estrus to compete and compete.

Cockfighting is characterized by a burly body, a strong physique, a well-proportioned and compact structure, a well-developed muscle, a strong muscle, a strong sex, and a good fight. The bones are well developed, dense and coarse. The head and neck are raised, and the neck, chest, and shin are almost in a straight line. The crown is red, and the crown, beard, and earlobes are underdeveloped. The eyes are large and sharp, the beak is stubby, hard and wedge-shaped, the tip is slightly curved and very sharp, the neck is thick and long and flexible, the legs are strong and powerful, the shin is long, the distance is developed, long and sharp, and the birth is upward. The claws are thick, hard and sharp. The plumage of the whole body is thin, coarse, short and close to the body surface, and shiny, and the feathers are diverse, mostly black. The wing feathers flapped powerfully.

Cockfighting was first seen in "Zuo Chuan: The Twenty-fifth Year of Zhaogong": "Ji and 郈's chicken fight, Ji's Jieqi chicken, and Ji's gold", that is, Ji Pingzi sprinkled mustard on its chicken wings (or clouds to glue its feathers to make it resemble armor), and Ji Zhaobo pierced a metal knife between his chickens.

Cockfighting games are also generally believed to have originated in Asia. China is one of the ancient countries in the world that domesticated cockfighting. There is also a record in "Liezi" that "Ji Zhuzi raised fighting cocks for King Xuan of Zhou". The style of cockfighting was more popular in the Spring and Autumn period. According to its geographical distribution, traditional Chinese cockfighting activities mainly include Henan cockfighting, Shandong cockfighting, etc., especially the Henan cockfighting produced in Kaifeng, Zhengzhou and Luoyang and other places has a purer bloodline and is more famous. In addition, there are cockfighting cockfights produced in northern Anhui, Turpan and Ili in Xinjiang, Xishuangbanna in Yunnan and Zhangzhou in Fujian. There are folk cockfights in the Central Plains, Zhangzhou cockfights, Turpan cockfights, Xishuangbanna cockfights and other "China's four major cockfights".

Ling Hao stepped forward and carefully looked at the big rooster in Su Lie's arms, majestic and high-spirited, both in terms of momentum and body shape are indeed superior, and this big rooster still has some old and new scars on its body, obviously, this is because of the trauma it suffered in the fight with other birds and birds, but looking at the bright color of its cockscomb, it seems that the age is not too big, it is the period of youth and strength.

Well, yes, yes, the occasional cockfight seems to be a good pastime.

"It's indeed a majestic rooster, and there are still new wounds on it, so let's go out and try it." Ling Hao was eager to try it for a while, and it felt very fresh.

"Yes, Childe. ”

"Also, now you can send the birds out to inform him that he's back. ”

"Husband, it's been arranged. Su Lie got the order, and immediately flashed out of the study, and Shan Ying also happened to enter the study at this time.

"Yo, little lady, you're back. Ling Hao leaned over with a smile and took her weak and boneless waist into his arms.

"Husband, the concubine is fortunate not to be dishonored, and got in touch with the third brother, and the third brother said that he would come over in the near future. ”

"Oh, Madame is really a personal little padded jacket for her husband, Madame has to talk about it to her husband at night. ”

"Also, Sister Wang has also brought back the news, all the materials about the impeachment of the Miao family have been submitted to Xianyang Palace, and she and Brother Yan are on their way back to Yongcheng. ”

"Oh, it seems that their purpose has been achieved, and it is time to return. ”

"The husband just asked Dingfang (Su Lie's character) to buy this famous big cockfight, does he want to go out to fight cocks?"

"Uh...... The little lady is really smart and smart, and she admires her husband. "Ling Hao is also worthy of being a brazen person, a toad jump can be done.

"Since you know all about Madame, there is one more thing that my husband wants to ask Madame to do for you. Ling Hao rubbed his hands and looked at Shan Ying very politely.

"What's the matter, husband?"

"The homework that my brother gave me before...... I'll ask Madame to help me with the last bit of content. Ling Hao said.

"Oh, you have to be careful, there were a few strange people following you when the concubine went out earlier. Shan Ying instructed softly.

"Hmm, someone is following you, Madame?" Ling Hao suddenly became serious.

"Yes, if it weren't for the guards, the concubine herself would have some skills, and I'm afraid it would be difficult to get rid of them. Shan Yingxiu frowned, she was already a fierce woman, and now that she was out of the house, there were still people secretly following her, so she bent her bow and arrow, shot an arrow at each of the four corners of her side, and shot down a full four tiles in one go, and the few people who were followed slowly disappeared .......

"If that's the case, Madame won't go out again during this time, just stay in the house, so that they won't be able to follow around anymore...... I want to meet them. ”

I didn't expect them to be so bold that they even had to follow their little lady when they went out, as for who instructed this person...... You can understand it when you think about it on your toes.
