Chapter 077: Dragon Boat Might!
"This little brother, the contemptible Luo Chenghuai, hasn't asked the little brother for his name yet?" The one-armed drummer said to Lu Zheng very politely, seeing that his expression was serious and respectful, he was obviously impressed by Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng replied: "My name is Lu Zheng, a native of Xinhe County, Brother Luo, I can help you in today's dragon boat race!" ”
Lu Zheng is not very old, but his speech and demeanor are very mature, and he casually said a few words to mobilize the emotions of all the men on the dragon boat.
Luo Chenghuai is the drummer, and he is also the leader of this dragon boat, and the Xinhe Luo family itself is a family that begs for business on the water, and has been good at manipulating boats and water for generations.
In the dragon boat race in Yangzhou in the past, more than half of the drummers were Luo's children, but in Luo Chenghuai's generation, the family was weakened, and Luo Chenghuai went into battle with one arm, and he had no intention of winning in his heart.
In fact, the current dragon boat race has long lost its original meaning, the Slender West Lake Dragon Boat Race, the focus of adults' attention is on the ranking, because the ranking is determined by the level of the hydrological society.
The dragon boat race itself is only the people in the market are still paying attention, who wins and who loses in the end of the dragon boat race, the officials above don't care, and where do the people who operate the boat below have motivation?
Lu Zheng seems to have an extraordinary background, and he is a scholar, it is rare for him to care so much about the game situation, which naturally moved Luo Chenghuai and others.
"Lu Gongzi is really talented, I didn't expect to understand dragon boats, and I would like to listen to it!"
Luo Chenghuai's family history, naturally an expert in boat manipulation, Lu Zheng's understanding of dragon boats, is based on the results of human scientific and technological research, Lu Zheng said his concept of dragon boat racing, Luo Chenghuai listened to his eyes wide, stunned speechless.
The main points that Lu Zheng said, every point is true, the so-called experts will know if there is one as soon as they stretch out their hands, and Luo Chenghuai quickly understood what Lu Zheng meant.
In fact, Luo Chenghuai is very clear about how to race dragon boats, but it is one thing to understand the truth, and it is another thing to implement it.
There are more than 100 men in the huge dragon boat, how to do it neatly, how to do the frequency change, 100 people like the fingers, this is not easy to do, you have to go through strict long-term training.
However, a dragon boat race itself has limited attention, the time and funds given above are not enough, there is no time for long-term training, and the reality is that it is unsatisfactory everywhere.
However, the method that Lu Zheng came up with is very distinctive, he avoided many difficulties in an incredible way, and the person who operated the boat only needed to recite the poem, and master the movement of the pulp according to the tone of the poem, and then it was naturally uniform.
Luo Chenghuai listened to Lu Zheng's narration, and then immediately organized everyone to practice once, except for a few people who were not accurate in reciting poems, none of the others made a mistake.
This effect is much better than the effect of Luo Chenghuai's training for half a month, for a while, he regarded Lu Zheng as a celestial, he Luo clan is living on the water, today Lu Zheng can give him a trick, and an understatement of a move, it solves the problem that plagues the dragon boat manoeuvre, this kung fu Luo Chenghuai is really unconvinced.
Lu Zheng watched Luo Chenghuai greet the men and shout a few rounds, and watched the originally scattered team become neat, he couldn't help but smile lightly, he raised his hand and beckoned the boat operator to lean to the shore, and then he abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, and quickly blended into the sea of people.
……
Jiangxin Island, the argument between Qin Yue and Chen Gui has reached the point where they disregard each other.
The two were originally rivals, but now both sides insist on their own words, and there are countless followers behind them to support, and there is only one topic, that is, whether the poem just now was written by Lu Zheng.
This issue was debated endlessly, far from being fruitless, and the adults and masters on the high platform were also divided into two factions, although there was no fierce debate like Qin Yue and Chen Gui, but the secret wrestling with each other was more intense.
The meaning behind this controversy is far greater than the controversy itself, for Qin Yue and Chen Gui, Chen Gui has been quibbling, and its purpose is to compete for the position of leader.
As for the adults, they are thinking about the ranking of each county, since Nie Yong and his Xinhe County are already at the bottom, no one wants to let Nie Yong have a chance to turn over.
The two sides argued, time went on, the crowd on the edge of the lake had been waiting for a long time, the crowd began to stir, as the controller of the overall situation today, Lord Liang needed to make a decision.
The reason why he didn't make a decision for a long time was because everyone's argument was about the ranking of dragon boats, and the dragon boats in Xinhe County were now at the bottom!
If he wants to support Qin Yue, the dragon boats in Xinhe County will be lined up from the back to the front, which is bound to cause an uproar, which is why Chen Gui's concept is obviously far-fetched, and there are so many people who support him.
It is impossible for things to drag on endlessly, Liang Quanyi glanced at Nie Yong with some sympathy, and said:
"Okay, the hour has long passed, pass my token, and the dragon boat race will begin!"
Lord Liang set today's pattern in one sentence, and he did not obviously support either side, but chose to maintain the status quo.
"Whew!" Many people breathed a sigh of relief, including Jin Gyu.
Lord Liang maintains the status quo, and today's Wenhui will not be able to turn the sky upside down, Chen Gui and other talented people can maintain their dignity, and the adults of the counties can also maintain their own face.
"The dragon boat race has started, pass on my words, if our county can win the first place today, I will reward a thousand taels of silver!" Song Jin couldn't wait to throw out the reward.
Then the county lords of other counties also expressed their opinions, and the dragon boat race, which everyone didn't pay much attention to, now seems to have become meaningful!
"Master Nie, what's wrong? Don't you take a stand? There must be brave men under the heavy reward, reluctant to let the child not catch the wolf, today's dragon boat race, you have to dare to make a bloody investment! Ma Xuewang leaned in front of Nie Yong and said, his smile full of playfulness.
Nie Yong frowned slightly, and snorted softly, the dragon boat ranked at the bottom of Xinhe, and there was no possibility of winning or losing at all.
Besides, the reward thrown by Song Jin and the others was not to win the dragon boat championship, but to continue to ridicule him Nie Yong in this way.
In the officialdom, many things are very delicate, and they can only be understood beyond words, and Nie Yong's heart, which had just been soothed before, now felt the pressure from the surroundings again.
said a thousand, said 10,000, blame him Nie Yong is just a lonely ghost in Yangzhou, and he is excluded by people everywhere, he is really aggrieved!
Nie Yong swallowed his anger, and at this time, the Slender West Lake was already boiling, and the dragon boat race began.
The dragon boat race starts and ends at the same place, and eight dragon boats circle the lake, and the routes of the boats are already defined by red ribbons.
The first dragon boat started, the word Weiyang waved in the wind, and the first wave of cheers sounded instantly, and then the second dragon boat, and the third ......
The huge dragon boat rushed forward like a swimming dragon on the lake, and there were tens of thousands of people watching and shouting on the lake, with drums and shouts, and the atmosphere set off wave after wave of climax.
Eight dragon boats rushed forward, and the people of each county quickly found their goals, and the adults and talents on Jiangxin Island were also looking for their own goals.
"Ah......h
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, and then, I heard someone shouting: "My God, why is the dragon boat in Xinhe County ranked seventh?" ”
This shout attracted the attention of many people, because after the start of the game, many people's eyes were focused on the front, and there was a lack of attention in the back.
But now everyone looks at the back, but they find that the dragon boat speed in Xinhe County is very fast, at the front of the dragon boat, there is a one-armed drummer, although the drummer only has one arm, but he stands on the bow of the boat but is as unshakable as a boulder.
He beat the drum with one hand, the drum beat like muffled thunder, and each blow had a momentum that shook people's hearts, just when everyone was dumbfounded, and they were still doubting the dragon boat ranking in Xinhe County.
This dragon boat has continued to rush forward, and has surpassed half of the dragon head in sixth place.
Next, an even more shocking scene appeared in front of everyone.
On the dragon boat, hundreds of men who were the pulp suddenly shouted in unison:
"The red flag was held high and flew out of the deep willows."
This turned out to be a poem, and the tone of the poem was very strange when a hundred men read it, but that tone had a very magical connection with their movements.
Then the following verse reads, "The drums beat the spring thunder, and the smoke waves go far back." ”
Hundreds of people shouted, the momentum was mighty, and seeing the speed of their dragon boat was fast, it seemed to make the men who operated the boat more confident, and their shouts became louder because of this.
The sound of joy shook the ground, and the fighting spirit of thousands of people was repulsed.
Jinbi Lou West, won the first championship. ”
After the end of a poem, the dragon boat in Xinhe County has reached the sixth position, and it is catching up with the fifth dragon boat in front, and the distance between the two sides is rapidly narrowing.
This scene stunned everyone, especially on Jiangxin Island, where many masters, adults and talented people looked at each other one by one.
Liang Quanyi was stunned and said: "This is a good poem!" Good! ”
Several other adults moved their lips, but they didn't speak after all, the last sentence of the poem hurt them too much, a dragon boat at the end of the queue, even to win the first place in the bidding, Xinhe County put the other counties in their eyes?
However, the situation on the scene has been set off, and the morale of everyone in Xinhe County, whether it is the boaters or the onlookers, has soared to the top, and at this moment, they are already unstoppable.
The same poem is being shouted again:
"The red flag is held high, flying out of the deep willow ......"
A shout, seems to have a magical power, the dragon boat in Xinhe County is getting faster and faster, in the fierce drumming, in the loud shout, the dragon boat in Xinhe County all the way forward, riding the wind and waves, invincible.
Finally, at the big bend at the end of the lake, this dragon boat has caught up with the first-ranked Weiyang County dragon boat, and the two sides are going hand in hand.
"Rush over and overtake Viyan! The first place in the bidding, I will reward a thousand taels of silver! Nie Yong's eyes widened, his face flushed, and he let out a heart-rending roar!
