Chapter 79: The exhibition match begins
After several days of preparation, the swamp boat race officially began.
The venue of this competition was set up near Lijia Village.
Through the efforts of Han Leng and the people of Lijia Village, there are many more obstacles on the swamp, including pumice stones, reefs, dead wood, tree stumps, stone mountains, big trees, and so on.
There are not many people around, because there are prohibitions set up around the venue, and you need to charge a tael of silver for admission to the venue.
Han Leng suggested not to set it up, saying that it would attract the audience first, and if it became popular in the future, then set up a quarantine area to charge.
But Aunt Li has a different view.
She felt that it was better to charge early, after all, so many people in Lijia Village had worked hard for so long for this site this time, and they couldn't help but pay for it. Moreover, the competition is really not attractive just for awarding rankings and trophies, so it is better to use one-tenth of the ticket price as a prize money each time.
Han Leng thought that others could also watch the game through the live broadcast, but Han Leng couldn't say this, because the system didn't allow it.
It didn't take long for the big bad wolf of the rising sun to arrive in the venue, and brought a lot of people, and the venue became lively.
"Brother Leng, I've brought someone to cheer you on!" The Great Bad Wolf of the Rising Sun laughed.
"Thank you." Han Leng said.
Seeing this, Aunt Li, who was standing next to Han Leng, smiled and said, "Where is this big brother from the outside world?" β
She should be able to see the details of the big bad wolf of the rising sun at a glance, what do you want to do with this extra question? Han Leng was puzzled in his heart.
"You're polite to the sacrifice, Xiaosheng is from the Sword Gate." Suddenly accosted by NPCs, the big bad wolf of the rising sun was a little surprised.
"Young and promising, are these your friends?" Aunt Li looked at the large group of people behind him and asked.
The Big Bad Wolf nodded: "It's all friends." β
"They are all outstanding talents with extraordinary bearings." Aunt Li stared at the equipment on those people and praised, "In the future, they must all be generals." β
The group of people behind the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf were also full of joy, after all, most NPCs were cold, and it was really rare to see NPCs that caught people praising like this.
What's so extraordinary? It's just that the equipment you wear is just some common red and purple outfits. Also a general...... This Aunt Li is too enthusiastic today.
"I have some beautifully made small objects here, do you want to come to one and leave a souvenir ......" said Aunt Li took out a bunch of clay handicrafts for everyone to see.
It turned out to be promoting its own products...... Han Leng smiled dumbly.
But I have to say that the clay gadgets in her hands are still quite exquisite, and the colorful zodiac beasts are vivid.
At this time, several villagers gathered around with their respective commodities and began to sell to the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf and his party.
After a while, Xiao Tianyao led a large number of people into the scene.
Aunt Li and the villagers also saw that they had already stuffed the packages of the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf and his party.
So immediately shifted the target and rushed towards Xiaotianyao and his group.
got rid of Aunt Li and her party, the big bad wolf of the rising sun came over and said with a wry smile: "I thought she appreciated me and wanted to issue me some good tasks." β
Han sneered: "She appreciates your money. β
Removing a large bunch of chili peppers from his neck, the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf sighed, "The NPCs here are also terrible, they are almost like the aunts in the farmers' market." The point is, I'm too embarrassed to turn them down. β
As he spoke, the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf handed a few jars and chili peppers in his hand to Han Leng: "These are for you, it's really inconvenient for me to hold them in my hands." β
"Don't, I'm going to participate in the competition later, I can't hold too many things in the backpack space, which will affect my performance." Han sneered and refused.
At this time, Xiao Tianyao, who was covered with things, walked over, and he smiled: "What are you talking about?" β
Then he saw the things in the hands of the Rising Sun Big Bad Wolf, and laughed: "Haha, it turns out that you also bought so many things. β
......
The race has finally begun.
The venue is a ten-ring mosquito coil track.
Han Leng and Zheng Xiaoyi were responsible for the opening exhibition match to liven up the atmosphere.
The hull of the swamp boat has been modified to include a light one-man boat, a two-person two-person double, a four-person medium-sized boat, and a six-person large boat. Of course, the so-called large ships are actually only several times larger than the small one-person boats.
Because it is an exhibition match, it is a random team, and it can be a single, double, or even four, up to six people.
Originally, Han Leng wanted to act alone, but Pa Qiu Ke had always relied on teaming up with Han Leng, and Han Leng could only take a two-person boat with her.
"Don't worry, big guy, I've practiced well during this time." Pa Qiu swore confidently, "I will not let you down later." β
Han sneered and didn't speak.
One by one, the brilliant fireworks exploded one after another, forming numbers in the sky.
10οΌ9οΌ8...7...3...1οΌ
With a loud bang, seven or eight large and small hulls rowed forward, but because swamps are different from waters, even if they are rowed the fastest, they are visible to the naked eye.
The hulls were of different colors and patterns to distinguish the different teams.
Han Leng and Pa Qiuke's green boat was one step behind at the beginning because of Pa Qiuke's nervousness. Fortunately, the adjustment was quickly completed and I chased after it.
"I'm sorry, big guy, I'm ashamed again." Pa Ball can paddle hard, sorry.
"It's okay, it's not just about who is faster." Han Leng looked at the chicken boat in front of him and said with a smile.
At the front of the line were Blackbeard and his three brothers. With their strength, they rowed their boats all the way through the swamp.
"Bang".
The ship seemed to have hit something, and actually flew up into the sky, and finally fell heavily into the swamp, and the hull touched the swamp for a moment, producing a strong repulsion, and several people on the ship were shocked into the flight and fell into the surrounding quagmire.
The four of them became little black men covered in mud and swam towards the hull of the boat on the side. But because the swamp doesn't look like a pool, they move slowly.
Immediately after, Zheng Xiaoyi and Zhong Le quickly overtook them.
It wasn't long before ships passed them.
"Hahaha... Theyβ" Pa Qiu couldn't help but laugh, "what just happened?" β
"They entered the second ring, and from here there were all kinds of accidents. They must have just hit the reef. Han Leng said.
"Then we have to be careful!" Pa Qiu Ke stared at the swamp in front of him with a cautious expression, and his hand slowed down.
"It doesn't have to be slow, as long as it's not a rampage, the danger of the reef isn't great. This is only the second level. Han sneered.
With Blackbeard's four lessons in mind, those who entered the second ring all slowed down.
But there are still quite a few people who capsized again.
Han Leng also hit several reefs, but they were all stable.
