Chapter 25: The Private Fight
As she said, they came in easily, and there were no portraits of them in the city.
But Yan Qing thought too much about it overnight, and when he entered the city, he found that only the people in Anding County were basically holding a pot of flowers in their hands, and few people were paying attention to him, which made him not so uncomfortable.
Youzhou flowers are really worthy of their name, flowers that have bloomed elsewhere, or flowers that have not yet bloomed can be seen here, it is already early summer, and the spring flowers of narcissus are still blooming. There are not only single-petaled "marigolds", but also double-petaled "jade exquisite".
Among them, the shape is also strange, some let it grow freely, grow straight and high, look refreshing and neat, some from the end of the bud body concave knife, so that the leaf end is hook-shaped, or the leaf end is hook-shaped, and some are like the fluff of birds or the breast of birds, and can also be curled into rings, such as fish eyes and other shapes.
These are the unique carving techniques of Youzhou, just one kind of flower, can be carved and cut into a thousand strange appearances, very eye-catching.
Not only that, but even the chrysanthemum, which can only be seen in autumn, can be seen here. In addition to the unique environment of Youzhou, the technology of the flower farmers is also very important, and the delay or early flowering depends on the craftsmanship between the flower people.
"I've been here many times, and the flower club will take turns to report in the eight counties of Youzhou, and this year it's the turn of Anding County."
"Miss Jun often comes here?"
"That's right! My mother loves the flowers here and often asks me to buy flowers here. Jun Weiran looked left and right, as if he was looking for a favorite flower.
"I see everyone has a pot of flowers in their hands, I don't know what this is for?" Ye Yanqing said sullenly in Liu Yi's arms.
Jun Weiran's eyes suddenly moved to Ye Yanqing's body, and his eyes were full of inquiry.
But overnight, Yan Qing buried her head in Liu Yi's arms and didn't see it because she was shy. Liu Yi stiffened because of Ye Yanqing's movements, but he quickly returned to his nature.
"You want to know?" Jun Weiran deliberately kept a straight face, but the smile that couldn't be suppressed at the corner of her mouth seemed to say, "Come and beg me!" Ask me and I'll tell you. ”
Ye Yanqing was a little entangled, if she begged, she couldn't hold her face, and if she didn't ask for it, she would be curious. "If you don't say it, you won't say it." Ye Yanqing pursed her lips, it's a big deal that she doesn't listen.
Liu Yi saw Ye Yanqing's reaction clearly, suppressed the smile in his eyes and said: "I have heard that they hold a pot of flowers not to sell, but to fight flowers, if they win the fight, the flowers will be anyone's." Miss Jun, I don't know if what you said is right or not? ”
"Yes, this flower party is not only held to appreciate these flowers, but also to exchange some flower raising skills. More importantly, it shows the craftsmanship of the flower people, promotes their own signs, and mainly learns from each other, and rarely involves personal grievances. But it's just some fights, it's not much fun, and if you need to, I can take you to see the fights. ”
Jun Weiran said casually while admiring the flowers around him.
"Oh? I've never heard of this flower can also fight privately, and I asked Miss Jun to say it in detail. Liu Yi seemed to be interested and asked.
"This private fight is generally a struggle between two families, involving interests, basically endless, and ordinary people will not participate in it.
The rules are also very simple, both sides set a date and each breed a poisonous flower.
In short, it is to cultivate the flowers that are not poisonous into poisonous flowers, not only to defeat the other party in the three aspects of strangeness, strangeness and elegance, but also to remove the poison of the other party's poisonous flowers within one day, in order to win.
Very few people can come back alive, most of them died in the hands of the poisonous flower, and a small number of them lost in the three aspects of the poisonous flower's strange, strange and elegant, and were killed by the owner.
However, this private fight sounds very interesting, but it is actually very bloody, and the losing side is usually destroyed, not only to hand over the secret book of cultivating flowers, but also to lose the lives of the family. From eighty-year-old mothers to half-moon babies, they will all be killed. ”
When Jun Weiran said the last sentence, there was a trace of indifference in his voice.
"What if there is anyone who breeds poisonous flowers?"
Jun Weiran walked to a very inconspicuous stall and looked around.
Although the place is very small, there are many flowers here, and there are dozens of peony flowers alone. But unfortunately, they are some common varieties on the market, although there are many, but they are not worth much.
"If neither party has cultivated it, it will naturally continue, and if one party has not cultivated it, the owner will naturally remove this family."
Jun Weiran squatted down and smelled the flowers. Although these flowers are ordinary varieties and are not precious, but if you look closely, the people who raise flowers are still very careful, and the cutting is very appropriate, and they look pleasing to the eye and are worth appreciating.
"Is there really such cruelty?" Liu Yi was a little interested in this owner, and he didn't know what kind of person this owner would be.
"Naturally. However, there have been few private fights in the past few years, and these are still legends in the early years. ”
After standing here for a long time, and not seeing the boss come to greet him, Jun Weiran looked around suspiciously with a pair of light eyes, but soon lost interest and moved his gaze elsewhere.
Maybe it was because there were many people here, so Liu Yi put down Ye Yanqing, stopped an old man who was pulling an old donkey, bought it at a high price, and gave Ye Yanqing a walk.
"Why didn't you buy a donkey sooner?" Ye Yanqing was stupid for a while, she just cared about making trouble, and forgot that she could do this.
Liu Yi pulled the donkey with one hand, rubbed his arm with the other, and said helplessly: "You are too fat to hold it." ”
Ye Yanqing felt that he hadn't been angry for a long time, and now he rushed directly to his head.
No, Ye Yanqing seems to have remembered something, he is a man, what can he care about his weight as much as the vulgar fans outside about women?
So Ye Yanqing contemptuously forgot about Liu Yi, and the words "What do you know" almost written on his face.
Liu Yi, who touched a gray nose, honestly pulled the donkey.
"Bell!" "Bell!" "Bell!" There was a noise of gongs and drums, and when Ye Yanqing and the two didn't know what was going on, they were taken to the side by Jun Weiran.
"What is this?" Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, this group of people didn't look like the bad people of the government, although they looked ordinary, they belonged to the kind that they couldn't find if they were mixed into the crowd, but their appearance was still very upright, not some crooked melons and cracked dates.
There were dozens of people, divided into two teams, with a dozen people each. There are five people in front, five people on the left beat the gong, and five people on the right beat the drums. They are all wearing the same clothes, dark red clothes mixed with black decorations, which looks particularly weird.
The originally lively street, because of the appearance of these people, became extraordinarily quiet, and consciously retreated to both sides, leaving the middle aisle.
"The private fight between the flower lord of the Nie Mansion and Zhao Xue will be held in three days!"
