Chapter 113: Gambling for All

I looked at my own black wooden card, which was as heavy as iron, and there was an ancient character engraved on it, which should be the word "羯" of "羯人", which is the so-called "羯牌".

Gao Jie stood outside the barracks with a red face, squinting his little eyes at the already noisy [Baoqu Camp] school field, playing a palm-sized black wooden card in his hand, which was their "team card", it was obvious that Gao Jie had already participated in the process of "touching cards", and was paired with another team of people, just waiting to play.

A large number of forts marched into this temporary camp of the Qiang people, and scattered to defend each barracks, and a group of soldiers also came in front of the broken barracks where Gu Yi and the others were.

The warriors in simple kudzu robes, crookedly holding spears, gathered together and whispered something, obviously talking about the topic of fighting the horse, and obviously planning to make a few handfuls for a while.

These fort songs, which only have the power of seven or eight tantalum, have no deterrent effect on the karma who are above the worst [karma], which can be seen from the fact that only one or five fort songs are sent to a barracks, which is completely symbolic.

These fort songs, which are of the same nature as security guards, are used to maintain order, and when they face the fierce people, their only reliance is the rights given to them by the lord of the fort behind them.

Although they looked very lazy and lazy, the spear-wielding forts still completed their task, restraining all the people and forbidding them to leave the barracks.

At the same time, rows of long wooden sheds were also erected on the school field of the temporary camp to enclose the huge school field, and a large number of wooden collapses and low tables were placed to look like stands.

Some wealthy businessmen and peasant owners in [Iron Furnace Castle] also entered the [Baoqu Camp] school field under the support of their family members and servants, and these "upper class people" of [Iron Furnace Castle] entered those wooden shed stands according to their status, and sat down on the seats that matched their identity proudly.

Then he smiled reservedly at the person who was sitting on himself and was lower than his status, and then bowed his back and smiled flatteringly at the person who was sitting on his own hand and was higher than himself, in exchange for a cold chin.

After these businessmen and farmers with small status or wealth sat down, a large number of burghers also poured in, filling the huge school field with water, and for a while the people were boiling and noisy, but the bleak night was very lively.

This is also due to the fact that the [Fort Quying] is one of the largest buildings in the [Iron Fort Fort], and although it is only open to the public, it can still accommodate a large number of burgers to watch this rare event.

I am afraid that the main reason why Bao Zheng, who regards the common people as ants, and those high-ranking nobles who are so magnanimous and friendly to the people is that these common people are waving gold cakes in their hands, and no one will be too harsh on the people who give them money.

A large number of ordinary people were not allowed to get too close to the school grounds, so as not to disturb the nobles, so outside the wooden sheds around the school grounds, the forts held spears and isolated a section of open space of more than ten meters, and the common people could only look out from the area outside the isolation zone.

Fortunately, although it was already night, a large number of oil basins were supported by wooden forks, and long poles were used to provoke clusters of oil oil suspended by iron chains, which illuminated the school field as bright as day, and could be seen clearly even from a distance.

However, the burnt smell of grease and the blazing fire emitted when the oil burned made the huge school field decorate the fiery atmosphere, and the atmosphere was already quite excited before the battle began.

On the isolation belt behind the wooden shed, a long piece of the case was erected by the fort, and a large number of large wooden boxes were placed behind the case, which was under the instruction of the fort, and the Bu Bo stall was openly opened.

If someone pays close attention, they will find that these cases correspond to the school field, which is painted by grass and wood ash one by one, a total of five rows, ten in each row, and a circle of several square feet.

I heard the sound of a leather drum with tom tom, and the crowd of onlookers erupted into a tsunami-like cheer, and this first fight was considered to be the beginning.

Gu Yi was stunned and looked at the crowd that stuffed the entire school yard with water, and said, "Once people pass a thousand mountains, there are no boundaries." There are nearly 20,000 people around this school!

Not counting the rich people such as the Baoqu and the merchants, farmers, and other wealthy people who were sitting under the shed and preparing to participate in the Dou Kabu Bo, the periphery was completely overwhelming, and it was impossible to tell at a glance how many people there were!

Faced with the crowd that could not be seen at a glance, even Gu Yi, who boasted of having seen people in the market, couldn't help but be stunned: "I'm afraid there are 50,000 people, right?"

"Fifty thousand, at least 100,000!"

The man who was lying idly on the barracks ground, pillowed his thick arms, and was hindered by the mine Zhenggao who was standing outside the barracks, lowered his voice and smiled: "The area pulled up by ropes behind the stalls of Nabu Bo is about a thousand people, and if you count how many stalls there are, you can estimate how many people there are!"

Gu Yi heard the words and looked, sure enough, after those cases, they were pulled up one by one by a phalanx with thick ropes and wooden stakes, and the common people who watched the fighting were encircled, there were a total of fifty stalls around the school, which was 50,000 people, and a large number of people were isolated outside the stall area.

These people are really strong gamblers, which is almost a national gamble.

Glancing at the wooden sheds around the school yard, Gu Yi was curious: "Why didn't you see the castle coming out?"

Qi Qiu said lazily: "This messy 'pre-fight', the old man of the castle can see how kung fu the field is, even the people sitting under the wooden shed now are just small and wealthy merchants and farmers in this [Iron Furnace Castle], the real wealthy businessmen and nobles will not come together with them by surrendering their identities, and they will only come out when the 'Zhengdou' is coming, and there is their place at that time..."

Pointing to those Bu Bo stalls, he smiled and said: "Even those Bao Qu that put up the stalls are only the Wu Fu Chang and Shi Fu Chang of the various songs in the Bao Qu Weili, and those who specially collect Bu Jin for Shangfeng can be regarded as the reward given to them by Shangfeng, and when those wealthy businessmen and nobles come to Bu Bo, there will be high-level Qu Chang out." ”
