Chapter 175: Peach Blossom Luck? Peach Blossom Tribulation? (c)
"According to our habit of Siamese trading, the items sold must be genuine." The black mole man said.
"My black gold is genuine. If you don't believe me, you can inquire about the players in the capital who don't know its name. Shen Weijing said.
"No, no. The so-called hearing is false, and seeing is believing. We have to see for ourselves what it can do. The man with the black mole said.
"That'...... How do you want to see what it does? Shen Weijing asked.
"It's simple. We have come this time to bring a cockfight of our own. Let the two of them compete for a while, and you'll know. As long as your black gold wins our cockfight, we are willing to pay a thousand taels of silver to buy it. The man with the black mole said.
"And what if my black gold loses?" Shen Weijing asked.
"I'm sorry then. We can't buy a loser. The man with the mole shrugged his shoulders and made a look of helplessness.
"So you have come prepared. However, I don't think you're here to buy chickens, but to challenge you. Shen Weijing felt that something was wrong.
"Lord Shen, don't get me wrong. It's just a trading habit for us Siamese people. The black mole man explained.
"So what if I don't sell it?" Shen Weijing said.
"If Lord Shen doesn't have confidence in his cockfighting, we can't do anything." There was a look of disdain in the eyes of the black mole man, and he seemed to be using the agitation method.
The black mole man's disdainful eyes did strongly stimulate Shen Weijing's nerves, and he forced himself to calm down, and his eyes kept turning around the three guests. Finally, his gaze rested on the petite and delicate woman among the three guests.
Shen Weijing stared at the woman's pretty face for a while, and then said, "Where is your cockfight?" Take it and take a look. ”
"Third sister, you go outside the gate of the courtyard and bring the lightning from the carriage over for Lord Shen to see." The man with the black mole said to the woman next to him.
"Yes, big brother."
The woman turned and walked out of the courtyard. After a while, she walked back with a delicate wooden cage in her hand.
"Big brother, I brought the lightning." The woman said, placing the cage in her hand at the feet of the black mole man.
"Lord Shen, this is a Siamese that we bought from a Siamese man at great expense. This chicken is known for its speed, and people give it the nickname 'Lightning'. The black mole man uncovered the piece of red silk that was covering the wooden cage, pointed to the white-feathered fighting in it and said to Shen Weijing.
Shen Weijing looked down and saw that inside the cage, a long-tailed fighting with white feathers and red neck was staring at the people outside the cage, looking at the people outside the cage, and there was a "clucking" sound in his throat from time to time.
"Yes, it's a good chicken." Shen Weijing pretended to compliment the other party in his mouth, but his brain was quickly thinking about how to deal with it below.
For this Siamese white-feathered fighting, Shen Weijing is no stranger. In his cockfighting experience, his black-feathered cockfight, known as Black Gold, fought against three Siamese fighting cocks successively, and the record was a complete victory.
Shen Weijing knows very well that this kind of Siamese fighting has bright feathers, is very ornamental, and also has strong combat effectiveness. But compared with the black feather fighting, there is still a big gap in combat effectiveness. It is known in the market that "white feathers see black feathers, and chicken feathers fall all over the ground". In a way, the Black Feather Fighting is the nemesis of the Siamese White Feather Fighting.
"You gentlemen, who don't know the height of the sky, have taken the initiative to send them to the door. I, Shen Weijing, have eaten this piece of fat today. Shen Weijing weighed it again and again, and made up his mind, so he said, "I can promise you." However, since you have put forward additional conditions for buying chickens, I will also mention an additional condition. ”
"Lord Shen, please speak." The black mole man said.
"You see if this is okay, if my black gold loses to your cockfight, I will stick you a thousand taels of silver. But if it wins, the black gold will be yours, and I will not take you any silver taels, but you will leave her to me. Shen Weijing said, will
Pointing to the woman.
"You ......" Shen Weijing's condition was obviously unexpected by the other party. After listening to Shen Weijing's words, the black mole man opened his eyes wide, looked at Shen Weijing in surprise, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
"What? Isn't it only for you to make demands for a deal that presupposes cockfighting, and not for me to mention my own terms? Besides, I'm okay with that. Originally, you came to buy chickens, but now it has completely become a cockfight, and it is you who are the best deal. Let's think about it. Shen Weijing didn't give the other party any chance to think, and then said.
"It's just that we didn't expect your condition." The black mole man said.
"I didn't expect the conditions you proposed." Shen Weijing said after him.
"But you ...... the conditions" The black mole man obviously hasn't come up with a suitable countermeasure yet.
"What's wrong with me? Not bad. Once I lose, I'm going to drop a thousand taels of you. Besides, I am a guerrilla general who is a righteous fourth-grade guerrilla general, although I am more or less older, but I am also passable. She followed me, so she couldn't be wronged, right? Shen Weijing continued.
Shen Weijing took a room for his wife when he was young. In the few years when he went to the Wa Kingdom to do business, because the two of them got together less and left more, his wife could not bear the loneliness of the empty house in the second year of his business trip, and the red apricot went out of the wall.
After his friends in China told him about the situation, Shen Weijing immediately returned to China and beat his wife severely. Then, with a letter of resignation, the woman who did not keep her husband's way was divorced.
From then on, Shen Weijing had a great disgust with the women of the Central Plains and did not remarry.
Because in the process of doing business, he often came into contact with some foreign women, and Shen Weijing had an inexplicable good impression of these foreign women with unique charm.
When he saw the Siamese woman standing next to the black mole man, he was immediately attracted by her pretty face. Almost instantly, Shen Weijing made the decision to exchange the woman for that woman.
"That'...... I have to ask my third sister if she is willing. The black mole man couldn't think of how to reply to Shen Weijing for a while, so he had to turn his head to his third sister.
"Big brother, we, the people of Siam, have always been reluctant to easily admit defeat in anything. Necessary sacrifices must be made in order to achieve the goal. If our lightning loses, I'm willing to stay. The woman said almost without thinking.
"But this is too wronged for you! No way! Big deal, we don't want that black-feathered cockfight. "It seems that the black mole man can't bear to trade his sister.
"Big brother, little sister didn't feel wronged. You see that this Lord Shen is dignified, and he is also a fourth-grade official in the court. Little sister, I'm not too young, and it's time to find a suitable person. The woman said.
"That is, I can swear to God, if I have the fate to marry your third sister, I will definitely let her live a good life." At this time, Shen Weijing, after hearing the woman's words, was a little excited, he secretly thought: "I, Shen Weijing, are the great virtues accumulated by my ancestors in which life, why have there been good things in the past two days?" ”
"Okay. Since the third sister agreed, I don't have to say anything. Why don't we start cockfighting? The black mole man said to Shen Weijing.
"Okay, let's get started. Old wood, open the cockfighting arena in the southeast corner of the yard and put the black gold inside. Prepare some tea, water, melons and fruits and put them on the long table next to them. I'm going to enjoy cockfighting with a few friends over tea. Shen Weijing instructed Lao Mu, the servant who had been standing beside him.
"Yes, master." Lao Mu turned around and went to prepare.
Everything is ready to go.
Lao Mu carried the wooden cage and took the lead in putting the black-feathered fighting called black gold into the cockfighting arena.
Black Gold couldn't have received more about this venue. On this field, it has defeated the challenge of many fighting cocks such as Luxi Cockfighting, Zhangzhou Fighting Cockfighting, and Turpan Fighting Cockfighting. Now on the battlefield again, Black Gold took a vigorous step in the field, and let out a powerful "cooing" sound from his mouth, which seemed to be sent to the opponent who was about to appear
Intimidating sounds.
"Third sister, put our lightning inside." The black mole man sat on the chair prepared by Shen Weijing and said to the woman, and at the same time, the black mole man quietly glanced at the woman.
The woman immediately understood, walked to the fence in front of the cockfighting arena with a wooden cage in her hand, reached into the wooden cage, and with great speed, stuffed a small pill into Lightning's mouth.
The Siamese white-feathered fighting, known as Lightning, seemed to enjoy the taste of the pill in its mouth and immediately swallowed it.
The woman's methods were extremely hidden, so that Shen Weijing did not notice it in the slightest.
Lightning was placed in the field. It seems that it is also battle-hardened. Facing the black gold that was larger than himself in front of him, the lightning did not have the slightest timidity, only to see that its powerful thick legs were tightly grasping the ground, its tail was raised high, the white feathers on its neck were erected like steel needles, and its two alert eyes were staring at the black gold in front of him, who was also threatening and testing him.
The two fighting cocks were in a stalemate, and neither of them had the intention of taking the initiative to attack.
"Black gold, up!" Shen Weijing, who was sitting on the chair, couldn't hold back anymore and shouted an order to his cockfight.
Hearing the master's order, Heijin immediately launched an attack, only to see it kick the ground hard with both feet, and its whole body rushed towards its opponent, its thick long beak pecking at the eyes of lightning.
Lightning seemed to have been prepared for the heavy blow of black gold, and when he saw the other party pecking at him, his body immediately jumped up like lightning, dodging the other party's heavy blow, and at the same time, stretched out two sharp claws in the air and grabbed the opponent's head with all his might.
Seeing that the lightning grabbed him from the air, he quickly rolled on the spot, dodging the claws of the lightning, and then quickly stood up, and without waiting for the lightning to stand firmly, he pecked at the lightning neck from the side.
The lightning couldn't dodge it, and was pecked the neck by black gold.
Black Gold pecked at the other party tightly, and tried to put the other party on the ground with all his strength.
Seeing that he couldn't break free, Lightning simply turned his head and pecked at Black Gold's neck.
The two fighting cocks, which were also pecked by each other, showed no sign of relenting, and both twisted together and rolled on the ground.
The venue was suddenly dusty and feathers flying.
This stalemate lasted for a long time, but fortunately, the two sides rolled to the corner of the field, and the two sides were able to break free from each other with the help of the courtyard wall.
After a slight adjustment, the two sides chased me to the center of the field, each exerting their own kung fu and fighting fiercely.
"Lightning really lives up to its name!" Shen Weijing saw that his black gold was difficult to see for a while, so he had to cover up his inner anxiety by complimenting the other party.
"Where, where. Lord Shen's black gold can be regarded as a master with full stamina. The man with the black mole seemed to have a winning look.
"Come on, drink tea." Shen Weijing saw the black mole man sitting there steadily, showing a look of disdain, and he became even more uneasy in his heart.
"Well, that's good. Good tea. The black mole man looked at the scene of the fierce fight in the arena, took a sip of the tea handed over by Shen Weijing, and exclaimed.
Lao Mu stood behind Shen Weijing, paying close attention to the battle situation on the cockfighting ground. He saw that the opponent's fighting was flying up and down, becoming more and more courageous, while the master's did not see any chance of winning at all, and suddenly sweated nervously on his forehead.
The two cockfights for dozens of rounds, and it is difficult to tell the winner.
Shen Weijing began to get nervous.
According to the previous record against the white feather fighting, the black and gold will often show a clear advantage after 30 rounds. Judging from the current battle situation, Black Gold not only does not see any advantage at all, but is also slightly weak.
The next scene on the cockfighting arena made Shen Weijing's heart even colder, only to see Heijin's feet slip and his body fall to the ground. Lightning seized this opportunity and flew forward, pecking at Black Gold's neck and pressing Black Gold to the ground. Black Gold struggled, but it was difficult to turn over.
