"As a martial arts competition, there must be some rules."

Zhang Shun stood on the high platform and waved his hand at the city wall, and the two handymen who had been prepared on the wall put down a huge white cloth and hung it on the city wall, and the cloth was full of words, which was the rules and rewards of the martial arts competition.

The moment the cloth on the city wall was lowered, another person appeared on the city wall and began to loudly announce the rules of the game.

The person who reported it was none other than Zhang Shun's doorman, and now his master, Qiao Shan.

When Qiao Shan finished his loud announcement, the people below were all talking, and the soldiers and officials were also gearing up, all of them excited.

"10 taels of silver!"

"The twentieth place will have 1 tael of silver!"

Zhang Shun gestured to Qiao Shan on the city wall again, and then sat on the chair on the high platform, Liu Yi and Guo Mingjian on the side also sat down immediately, and Zhang Tie stood next to Zhang Shun, protecting Zhang Shun.

Today's Zhang Tie's outfit is a little special, wearing a Taoist robe, which is the best equipment obtained during the Princess Ping'an incident.

The weapons are also only worn with broken troops and small steel shields, and the longbow and eternal palace that usually do not leave the body are not worn.

Looking at the minimap from time to time, Zhang Tie stood next to Zhang Shun expressionlessly, observing the excited soldiers below.

"Dang!"

A gong sounded, coming from the city wall, attracting everyone's attention, and the person who struck the gong was naturally Qiao Shan on the city wall.

"Now, soldiers and officials who want to participate in the competition can draw a number from the wooden barrel in the center of the martial arts field in turn, and then go to the front to register their names and the numbers drawn, the time is only one stick of incense, please hurry."

After saying this, Qiao Shan stepped aside, waiting for the soldiers to draw the number.

As soon as the soldiers below heard that the time was only one stick of incense, they all walked to the middle of the martial arts field, drew a number plate, and then reported their names and plates to the person on the side.

One after another, people stepped forward to draw number plates, and soon the time of a stick of incense passed, and there were about 300 people who signed up for the competition.

Among them, 150 soldiers from the North Gate Barracks participated in this competition, and the number of participants in the other three barracks was very small, less than 50 people participated, and the remaining 100 people were all caught in the government.

Some people who know that there is no result are directly giving up the opportunity to sign up, and the rest want to take this opportunity to exercise themselves, if they are lucky, the opponents drawn are weak people, maybe they can also get a bonus.

Yan Beichen played with the number plate in his hand and looked at Zhang Tie on the high platform, his eyes were full of curiosity. The number plates are made of ordinary wooden plates, and the twelve are written on them with a brush (I know that in ancient times, they were all used to pick up two, but to save trouble).

As soon as the time came, some handymen stepped forward to carry away the wooden boxes and tables, while the collectors took the list to the bottom of the high platform and handed it to Qiao Shan, who came down from the city wall.

The list is filled in order, and all the battle orders are clear at a glance.

Qiao Shan took the list, first glanced at Zhang Shun, and Zhang Shun also happened to be looking at him, and nodded to him, meaning naturally to let Qiao Shan start to preside over the game.

With a light cough, Qiao Shan strode forward, came to the center of the martial arts field, and shouted loudly to the list of two people who were going to compete.

"No. 1 Wang Da Niu, No. 2 Xiangyang, please come to the martial arts field and take the wooden weapons you have on the weapon rack."

"Please get ready for No. 3 Ning Youchu and No. 4 Wu Lin."

Now because the venue is limited, and the event is also very sudden, it can only be one by one, however, a competition does not take much time, and it is different from any competition on the blue planet.

There is less than a bowl of tea (fifteen minutes) for a tournament here, and at most half a cup of tea (five minutes) can end the game.

After a while, the two people who were called took their own weapons, both of which were wooden sticks, the one on the left and the number two on the right.

After the two of them walked to the center of the martial arts field, Qiao Shan came to the middle of the two, raised his right hand high, and glanced at the two of them seriously, "I'll repeat the rules, it's forbidden to insert the crotch and pull out the crotch, kill and cripple, etc., stop at the point!" ”

Qiao Shan's right hand swiped down hard, and shouted the word start in his mouth at the same time, and after finishing speaking, he immediately retreated and came to the bottom of the high platform.

The two people in the field should also be acquaintances, hugging each other's fists, which is regarded as a greeting, both of them pressed their horse steps, slowly moved their steps, and pulled each other into each other's distance.

The sticks in his hands are all placed smoothly in front of him, and he looks like he can attack at any time, obviously he has a certain martial arts foundation.

When the distance was only more than a zhang, the two sides attacked almost simultaneously, and the wooden sticks in their hands swept out towards each other.

A dull sound sounded, and the two wooden sticks struck each other in mid-air, and were immediately retracted by the owners of both sides in an instant, and the speed of the No. 2 stick on the right was significantly slower.

No. 1 Wang Da Niu took advantage of the speed and immediately followed up with a backhand again, and No. 2's Xiang Yang was still in his hand, so he could only put the wooden stick in front of him and block No. 1's attack.

As the saying goes, once you are passive, you can only be passive, and it is difficult to have a chance to turn around.

Not everyone is the protagonist, that's a novel, the author made it, in reality, there are so many opportunities to turn the tables, and others are not stupid.

No. 1 continued to hit the wooden stick in No. 2's hand one after another, forcing No. 2 to retreat step by step, and under the continuous attack, No. 2's hand holding the wooden stick was obviously trembling.

There is an old saying that there must be a mistake in long-term defense, and the No. 1 Wang Da Niu was another heavy sweep, directly hitting the No. 2 Xiangyang's wooden stick.

This time, No. 2 Xiangyang failed to block No. 1's attack like the previous times, and the wooden stick in his hand slapped No. 2's chest directly under No. 1's heavy sweep.

No. 2 Xiangyang was directly knocked to the ground by this blow, and the wooden stick in his hand rolled to the side, and No. 1 stepped forward at the same time and pointed at No. 2 lying on the ground with the end of the wooden stick.

No. 2, who was lying on the ground, looked at the wooden stick in front of him, sighed and exhaled, slowly raised his right hand, and said at the same time: "I admit defeat." ”

No. 1 put away the stick, came to No. 2, stretched out his right hand, and smiled slightly, "It's made a lot of progress!" Xiangyang, that's good. ”

Grabbing Wang Da Niu's hand, Xiang Yang stood up, and a group of people hung down to Wang Da Niu's chest, "Okay, you Wang Da Niu, it's really heavy, don't give me a chance to fight back." ”

And when No. 2 Xiang Yang raised his hand to admit defeat, Qiao Shan, who was on the high stage, picked up a bunch of brushes on the table and drew a stroke on No. 2's name, and after putting down the pen, he came to the middle of the martial arts field again.

"The first game is over, and the winner is the No. 1 Wang Da Niu, please let the two go."

"Next is No. 3 Ning Youchu and No. 4 Wu Lin, the first two will go on the field after taking their weapons on the weapon rack."

"Please also ask No. 5 Zhang Kaihua and No. 7 Cai Wen to get ready."
