Chapter 63: Have Fun on Your Own

After buying clothes and shoes, Hong Tao and Carl were still dressed in short clothes and barefoot, and nothing changed. There is no finished product, they are all custom-made, I can't wear them at the time, and I have no choice but to buy two pairs of hemp shoes to wear first, so that I don't have to be afraid of others stepping on my feet when I go shopping.

Further north, it is not a commercial street, it has become an entertainment street, and there are not merchants selling things on both sides, but artists selling art. There are jugglers, puppet shows, storytellers, and storytellers, but most of them can't be understood, so they didn't go to this scene. On the northernmost side of the street are two large dirt fields, with a group of people watching a wrestling match on the left and a circle of people watching keju and shuttlecock kicking on the right.

Wrestling and kicking rattan balls were popular in the Song Dynasty, and this Hong Tao knew something, and Luo Youde took out a rattan ball to play a few kicks when he was fine on the boat. This thing is said to be the origin of football, called Keju, but Hong Tao feels that there is still a big gap between this thing and football, and it is more similar to rattan ball, or it is a kind of large shuttlecock, mainly in tricks, supplemented by competition, and is a kind of performance project.

Wrestling, Hong Tao is more interested, because he himself can, as a semi-professional, he naturally has to take a good look at the technical and tactical level of his peers in the Song Dynasty. Corner arrives, this is the sign hung out on the wrestling field, two people fight on the wooden platform, the organizer will also open the odds on the spot, sit on the spot, each game can participate in gambling, a penny can be bet, wrestling is wrestling, sitting in the village is sitting in the village, two groups of people, no one delays anyone, it is estimated that it is a cooperative relationship. As for whether there is an insider inside, whether there is a deliberate release of water to eat big and small losses, Hong Tao is not clear, anyway, the Song people are really good at gambling, as long as they have the opportunity, they have to gamble, and they don't distinguish between rich and poor, just like buying lottery tickets in later generations, all ** move.

"Help me carry my shoes, and watch me go up and earn the money for our shoes." After watching the audience for a while, Hong Tao probably figured out the rules of wrestling in the Song Dynasty, and made two small bets, both of which he won, so he began to be restless again. Seeing that there are audience members who can also compete on stage, and can bet on themselves, he also wants to go up and try it. Winning money is a trivial matter, the main thing is to be happy, I have been in Da Song for several months, except for drinking too much once, there is no entertainment. This person can't just work all day long, and he has to vent and vent, so he has fun for himself if he doesn't have fun.

"Good ......" In addition to being good at gambling, Song people also love to watch the excitement and coaxing, and they belong to the kind of people who are not afraid of big things when they watch the excitement. As soon as Hong Tao came on the stage, he immediately attracted a burst of applause from the audience, but it didn't sound like real applause, and he was a little looking forward to him being beaten quickly.

Hong Tao was not too enjoyable, he simply took off his shirt and threw it directly on Carl's head in the audience, and then posed on the stage for a few bodybuilding competitions, so that the audience could take a good look at the tendon meat on his body, as well as the colorful big mouse head on his back, mainly for the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the audience. The status of women in the Song Dynasty was not very high, but this was relative, and if compared with the Tang, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, it was much higher. At least you don't have to hide your little feet at home and be depressed for a lifetime, whether the women of the Song Dynasty are married or not, they can go to the streets to wander around, and they can also go down to the restaurant to eat and go to the corner to play in this kind of entertainment venue, no one will talk nonsense.

"Good...... Oh...... Good craftsmanship! "Have the Song people ever watched a bodybuilding competition? Definitely not. Have the Song people ever seen such a tall and toned figure as Hong Tao? Can't say no, but very little.

As soon as Hong Tao appeared like this, it immediately attracted more applause, this time it seems to be a bit reliable, there are a lot less elements to coax and watch the excitement, and most people are really applauding. However, this cheer is not for Hong Tao himself, but for the tattoo of the big rat's head on his back. The Song people also liked tattoos, but they were all black and cyan, not as many colors as in later generations. Hong Tao's tattoo is a stunt at this time, the five colors are also gorgeous, very attractive, a few little ladies in the audience have begun to throw flowers on the stage, and their eyes are full of enthusiastic worship.

By the way, here are two more verbose sentences, in the Song Dynasty, don't use the words girl, miss to call women, these two words are all professional and technical personnel, and sitting on the stage in later generations is a meaning, you call a good family woman to protect yourself and play with you. So how to call the women of the Song Dynasty, they are called Niangzi, whether they know each other or not, and those who are too different in age are all called Niangzi. If you are too young, you will be called a little lady, it sounds a bit hooligan, but it is indeed called that, and the Song people will not blame you.

There are also special addresses between men, and men and old men don't scream indiscriminately, it's considered to be scolding. When you meet a man of the same age, you can call it brother or brother, and if you are an older man, you can call it an old man, but they can't understand it.

A woman can be called a lady, but can a man be called a husband? No, the ministers of the Song Dynasty could not be called not only between ordinary people, but also between husband and wife. At this time, Xianggong was an honorific title, with an honorific title of official position, except for the prime minister of the dynasty, only particularly respected officials were qualified to use this word. For example, Yue Fei can be called Yue Xianggong.

What is the skill of the Song wrestlers? It's okay, in Hong Tao's view, the horns of the Song Dynasty are more like a combination of Greco-Roman wrestling, international wrestling, and Mongolian-style wrestling, and there are certain routines, but they are not too fine. The study of various joints and centers of gravity of the human body is not too thorough, the upper limb strength is used more, and the way of using all parts of the body to exert force is not mature.

"Good...... Oh......" It took less than three minutes for Hong Tao to throw the one who was facing him out in a kneeling position, and then he didn't get up immediately, he kept the posture of kneeling on one leg and lifting his buttocks upwards in the same place, tilting his head and throwing flattery at the few little ladies in the audience. It's hard to say whether he's a flattering person who can see or can't see, mainly because his eyes are too thin. However, the audience's reaction was very strong, and countless flowers were thrown up, including two sachets, and I don't know what they contained.

In the first game, Hong Tao won 80 yuan, and he was not very satisfied, this feeling of being recognized by others was too good, Hong Tao planned to enjoy it for a while, so he bet the money he won on himself again and started the second game. made him so noisy, and many spectators watching other projects in the vicinity also came around, and the whole street was the most lively here.

In the second game, the opponent did not learn the lesson of the loser in the previous game, and launched an active attack when he came up, but he couldn't take the lead in the face of Hong Tao, who was tall and long-armed, and was cracked by Hong Tao several times. In a hurry, he was a little aggressive, but Hong Tao grabbed his left arm, and before he could break free, Hong Tao lowered his body and leaned into his arms again, and then he flew up from Hong Tao's side, and a sturdy shoulder car fell on the wooden platform.
