Chapter 52: Defeating the Strong with the Weak
"Hurry up, there is nothing to bet on, the competition will start soon!" The person in charge of the banker stood on the table and shouted to everyone.
"Yes! And me! Wu Ming hesitated for a long time, and finally the hook nose flashed with oil, and he auctioned out a nine-cent coin, "I bet, bet on Liu!" ”
It stands to reason that Wu Ming is Wu Shihao's brother, and he must support his eldest brother no matter what the situation, but so many people all buy Dali Liu to win, and Wu Ming himself does not believe that Brother Hao really has the strength to win, knowing that he will lose, of course he is not willing to invest his money in it.
Morality is one thing, it involves the level of interests, or should we follow the good as the flow.
"It's on, it's on, they're on!" Someone shouted, and the surging crowd crowded into the circle at the same time.
"Don't crowd everyone, don't go beyond this bench!" The person in charge moved a large bench to block the outside of the circle to prevent the crowd from continuing inward, leaving enough space for the two people to compete.
"Boy, dare to challenge me, you are simply beyond your strength, and it is too late to regret it now, you wait to be knocked off a leg." Liu vigorously demonstrated triumphantly to Wu Shihao.
Challenging the foreman's living signboard also has a price, winning the natural bonus, reputation and double gain, can replace the failed person to become the new signboard of the dock, but once you lose, at least you have to leave a hand or a leg, which is also a warning to those who deliberately want to make trouble.
In addition, Dali Liu has become a dock signboard for more than three years, his nickname is not for nothing, this guy is not only big, but also tall, the average adult can grow to more than one meter seven in the era of lack of food and clothing, even if he is superior, but this guy has a height of nearly two meters, naked body, a body of tendon meat, pulling to be a fitness coach is simply a live advertisement.
In addition, he has always been a signboard as a foreman, usually eating fragrant, drinking spicy, and raising it as strong as a yak.
On the other hand, Wu Shihao, although our brother Hao is also a dignified seven-foot man, but he works as a coolie, usually lacks food and clothing, and there is no nutrition when he eats, and he can judge which is stronger and which is weak just by looking at the hardware of his body.
However, now that the challenge has been delivered, there is definitely no way to lose in terms of momentum.
"Dali Liu, I haven't started the comparison yet, it's too early to boast about Haikou now." Wu Shihao said with a calm expression, although he said it calmly, but he was still a little panicked in his heart, if it weren't for Chen Xijiu's gambling curse and vowing to guarantee that he would win at the cost of his life, he would not have done such a ridiculous thing.
He looked at Chen Xijiu in the crowd.
Chen Xijiu was standing on a high place, giving a thumbs up, cheering for him from afar.
"As long as I can really win this time, then in the future, you Chen Xijiu will be my Wu Shihao's lifelong brother." Wu Shihao made a decision secretly in his heart.
"Are you ready?" The foreman Ju Ye personally made the referee and ruled on the spot, but to be honest, he didn't think Wu Shihao would win, Ju Ye's eyes were very poisonous, and whoever did the coolies had a few catties and a few taels, and he could see it at a glance.
Master Ju already plans to knock off one of Wu Shihao's legs after the challenge fails, so as to set an example, so that the coolies who dare to make trouble can take a good look at the fate of wanting to get ahead.
"Master Ju, I'm ready to start at any time." Wu Shihao said calmly.
"To win you, you don't need to prepare at all, you just wait to lie down." Dali Liu's face was contemptuous.
"Okay, since there is no problem with both of you, then we will officially begin," Master Ju waved his hand, "and put sacks on them." ”
Wu Shihao squatted on his horse, and two people brought a sack of rice grain, shouted, and rested it on his shoulder, his knees were slightly bent, and his cloth shoes sank into the mud, and he was ready to bear the best posture, so that he could carry enough sacks to the maximum extent.
He was already in a weak position, and if he wanted to defeat the strong with the weak, he had to go all out, although he didn't know how Chen Xijiu judged that he would definitely win.
Dali Liu sneered, pushed aside the two people who were carrying the sack, grabbed the sack with one hand, and threw it on his shoulder casually, without bending his legs and stomach, and carrying the weight of a sack of rice grain was as simple as carrying a pillow for Dali Liu.
Which is stronger and which is weak, you don't have to guess it is already clear at a glance.
"One more bag."
Master Ju gave orders to his men.
Immediately, two people brought another sack of rice grain, and as soon as the two of them used their strength, they folded the sack on top of the first sack, Wu Shihao's face suddenly began to swell and red, and his legs and stomach sank down again.
Although Dali Liu still wanted to grab the sack with one hand and pretend to be forced, he already carried a bag on his shoulder, and his movements were not very convenient, so he could only barely pull down some face and let the other two lift the sack to his shoulder.
However, even with two sacks, Dali Liu's face was still not red or panting, and he didn't even bend his legs, but his brand-new cloth shoes sank down a little.
Dali Liu looked at Wu Shihao with a provocative expression, "Boy, two bags are already not good, right?" Admit defeat as soon as possible, kowtow to my brother to make amends, and I can still help you say something good in front of Master Ju. ”
Wu Shihao gasped, "It's early, it's too early to admit defeat." ”
"Hmph, if you don't see the coffin, you won't shed tears, then let's continue, Master Ju, you can add more." Dali Liu took the initiative to ask for further sacks, and his record was to resist ten sacks, like a small mountain, and now only two sacks have not even reached a third.
Dali Liu can also judge that Wu Shihao, a kid who can bear five sacks at most, will fall down, and he doesn't know where he got the courage to challenge him.
Burst! Burst!
There were two muffled sounds, and another sack was added to the shoulders of Wu Shihao and Dali Liu respectively, and the two of them were already carrying three sacks each.
Wu Shihao's forehead was dripping with sweat, and his body was already a little shorter, but Dali Liu only maintained the posture of a horse, and the three sacks were enough for him to take out the corresponding posture to bear.
"Ah Long, you didn't buy too much of Wu Shihao just now, did you?" The fat boy Ma Rubao has already seen that Wu Shihao is dying.
"No, no, I only bought a dollar." Ma Rulong said with a smile, but he was secretly scolding in his heart: Wu Shihao, you bastard, hurry up and hold up Lao Tzu, don't let Lao Tzu's 100 yuan go down the drain.
With a full two months' salary, if the game is over, he will have to rely on his brother to help him live.
Chen Dawen glanced at Chen Xijiu silently, and didn't say anything, unless there is a miracle, Brother Hao will definitely lose.
Chen Dawen had long guessed that Brother Hao would not succeed in the challenge, and the reason why he had to use one day's income to buy Brother Hao to win was because no matter what, he would support Brother Hao.
If Brother Hao is killed or injured because of failure, he Chen Dawen will not let Chen Xijiu go first, regardless of whether he escapes from the mental hospital or not.
