Chapter 116: The Living Dead Section 4: The Living Dead
After three rounds of drinking, the peanuts and rice on the plate are gone, and the allusion of this wine doctor will be almost over, and as soon as the lunch is over, the big gong on the high platform will ring! This gong is opened, which means that the wrestling meeting is about to begin.
On this stage, it is a sitting person and an appearance, not a venue for wrestling competitions, the open space in front of the high platform is enclosed with a white curtain tent with a diameter of about 30 meters, paved with washed and screened yellow sand, and various colored flags are planted on the side, of course, the flags of the little Japanese devils account for more than half.
Under the high platform, there were Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers, and there were many policemen who separated the ordinary people watching the excitement. After the three-way gong, the deacons came out and announced the start of the wrestling meeting with the microphone!
It was the Japanese national anthem again, and the drum band played the military song, and the deacon announced it, saying that the wrestling meeting would be together for three days, the third day of the junior high school, the fourth day of the junior high school, and the fifth day of the junior high school, from two o'clock in the afternoon to six o'clock in the evening, the first two days were the knockout rounds, and the winner was determined by one game, and the voluntary registration! Zuihou is the finals on one day, and the first, second and third places are compared.
Those who sign up for the competition will be rewarded with ten catties of millet, and those who pass the first round will be rewarded with ten catties of pork! If you are not eliminated in the competition of the day, you will be rewarded with a bag of white noodles!
That's a reward! Ten catties of millet was considered fine grain that year! Who is willing to boil thick porridge, it is a good thing to put aside a little to make millet soup! And those ten pounds of pork! How many poor people in Baoding City have to buy a tael of meat during the New Year! The pigs hanging under the high platform are so tempting!
Needless to say, a bag of white noodles can survive a few months for a family of four mixed with miscellaneous grains and vegetables!
The most enticing is yet to come, a gold-plated trophy for the first place. Two envelopes from the ocean are two hundred pieces. It's real hard currency. It can be used everywhere in China! Buy a bag of white noodles for a piece of ocean!
The second place is 100 oceans, and the third place is 50 oceans. The deacon also said that the top ten Baoding Chamber of Commerce hires, goes to work at the Chamber of Commerce, and gets a salary!
When the people heard this, they all exploded! Since the devil entered the city, this time to hold this wrestling party, the whole is such a generous reward, no one is blushing! I will squeeze forward a few times to sign up. No, the bold ones also want to mix ten catties of millet and go home to make porridge and drink.
The man squeezed forward, waiting, but before the deacon could finish speaking, he shouted, saying that in order to enhance the friendship between the army and the people, the Imperial Army specially selected soldiers from the garrison of the Great Japanese Empire, as well as wrestlers from the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry units, to participate in the competition.
As soon as he finished speaking, he beckoned these devils and the Manchurian cavalry to come out and appear, and they left on the stage. Those who still wanted to sign up just now don't squeak!
It is said that the cavalry of the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry wings are all dressed in the traditional outfits of Mongolian wrestlers. Big boots, horse crotch pants, thick jackets, at first glance, it is a good wrestler among the Mongolian people, with big shoulders and round waist, that head and muscles, it is really ashamed to look at it in the sun in winter!
In those years, the common people couldn't even pull out the heterozygous noodles of, they couldn't eat enough if they wanted to, how many muscles could they grow on their bodies, why did the devils enter Baoding City, the wrestlers in this city were almost extinct, and half of them were bloody to join the national army and the eight roads to do it with the devils, and some of them couldn't go because of the small family, so they changed their careers to do small business or take care of the home or something for the big family.
It's not good to open a wrestling ring, you can't eat or drink, and the hungry ones are all big heads and thin necks, how can you wrestle! If the wrestlers don't change their careers, they will starve to death.
There is no comparison with the Manchurian cavalry who took refuge in the devil, what people eat and drink, this size is poor, and the confidence is insufficient!
This is not over, the Mongolian wrestlers finished their appearance, and the little devils also came out, ten devils lined up in a row, bowed in all directions on the high platform, don't look at the tall and mighty Mongolian people, but one by one is also full of spirit, the feet are very stable, and the practitioners all understand, this is not a Japanese judo master or a karate master.
The deacon came out and shouted several times, and let the people sign up! The people on the black ground surrounded by the three layers inside and the outer three layers are buzzing and discussing, but none of them have gone out to sign up!
shouted around the high platform a few times, but still didn't come out to sign up, and a few young men who were eager to try wanted to go over, but were stopped by their own masters or relatives or something.
Zuihou came out and a translator said, saying that the imperial army on the stage said that he was very disappointed, but there was no Chinese in Baoding City who looked like a master!
The people around him were outraged! They are talking about it, and some of them are shouting and scolding, but they can scold and scold, and those who have cornmeal batter in their stomachs and other people's meat-eating people still can't call that board!
"Lao Tzu counts one! Move! Sign up! "There was a thunderbolt from the crowd! Someone yelled, separated the crowd, and strode outside the circle to sign up!
"Good! Balls! Someone in the crowd cheered! Everyone shouted one after another! Many people who were coaxed were moved and wanted to squeeze over to sign up!
"Lord is here! Count me as one! "This one is not as loud as the big man's voice, but it can be regarded as a gunshot sounding on everyone's heads, why is it overhead, because this person shouted on the second floor!
It's none other than the one who listened to Dr. Jiu's story about the legend of Baoding wrestling! The military commander spy Ma defeats the enemy!
How did he think of wading into this troubled water, originally he came to see the excitement, but when he heard what the translator said just now, he was excited, and the appearance of the big black man in the crowd provoked him again, why? He knows this big man! It's the one who slashed the traitor with his sword last night!
Since the eight roads dare to go up to compete, Lao Tzu is a dignified major of the national army, can he still lose face for our Hebei people! stood up at the moment, shouted, put his hands on the edge of the window, and jumped down!
Everyone got out of the way, and Ma Kedi tucked the placket of the cotton robe into his waist, strode forward, came to the outside of the circle, and arched his hand towards the big man and said, "Don't come unharmed." ”
Yang Stick was stunned, he was despised by the devil Chinese, and he couldn't get angry to come out to compete, but he didn't expect that the people of the national army who met in the Jufu class were actually here, and they followed themselves to sign up, grinned, hugged his fist and said: "No harm!" ”
Didn't this kid take the letters and greetings that the red jade girl gave him, and follow the little girl? Why did you come here again after only half a day?
It is said that from the secret passage specially prepared for prostitutes in the Jufu class, it is a secluded path, and a sedan chair has been prepared here, and the little guy let Yang Bangzi sit in the sedan chair, and instructed the sedan chair driver to say a few words, and closed the curtain of the sedan door, and Yang Bangzi was carried away.
I don't know how many turns I turned, anyway, I stopped slowly, Yang Bangzi listened, I didn't encounter a road card or a patrol, this is called a fish road, a shrimp road, a sedan chair man eats this bowl of rice, and those who dare to carry guests in Pingkang at night are all masters who walk the streets and alleys!
When I came to a courtyard, I got off the sedan chair in the dark shadow of the door hole, opened the door curtain, let Yang Bangzi come out, and told the ground. Yang Stick lowered his head and came out, and looked up to see what kind of place this was, gloomy, with two white paper lanterns hanging on the black lacquered gate. I asked the palanquin man if this is the land? Make no mistake.
The sedan chair man smiled and said yes, this is it, you go in quickly, we have to rush back.
Yang Bangzi watched the sedan chair man disappear into the dark shadow on the corner of the street in disbelief, saw that there was no one around, stepped forward, and slapped the door knocker a few times with his hand.
After a while, there was a movement behind the door, a crack opened, and someone asked who to look for? Yang Bangzi hurriedly handed over the letter and the letter to be handed over, and the person in the door whispered to let him sit down at the stone ridge outside the door, and he went to report.
A bag of cigarettes, the door rang, opened a small half of the fan, beckoned Yang stick to go in, this in, good guy, darker than the door, the door doesn't care about the white lantern looks uncomfortable, but it's two lights, this one goes in, closes the door, it's dark!
The man who greeted him took out a foreign fire, lit a white candle, placed it in a glass lamp, put it on, and let Yang stick follow him.
Not to mention, this big courtyard can vaguely be seen to be not small, through the courtyard through the door, at least three courtyards, but there is one thing, none of the rooms are lit up, all are dark, look so panicked!
I followed the old man to the depths of a large courtyard in Zuihou, and was led into the only place with lights in the courtyard, and at the table of the eight immortals in the main room, there was a thin old man with all white hair, one hand on the table, and one hand resting on his lap.
It's okay if this Yang stick doesn't look at this old man, and when I see him, my heart is even more drumming! Such a gloomy and terrible courtyard, there is no vitality at all, what is the difference between this old man and the living dead!
If it weren't for the movement of his arm, it wouldn't be wrong to say that he was a zombie! Before the old man could speak, Yang Bangzi heard a slight sound from the corner of the house, and followed the movement to take a look! The hairs are standing on end! There was a big black lacquered coffin in the corner of the house, and the coffin lid was clearly moving slowly! (To be continued......)
