Bastard’s Resurgence

Chapter 77: The dragon boat is prosperous!

"This little brother, my dear Luo Chenghuai, haven't asked the name of the little brother yet?" The one-armed drummer said to Lu Zheng very politely. Seeing his serious and respectful expression, he had obviously taken a look at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng replied: "My name is Lu Zheng, from Xinhe County, Brother Luo, I can help you in this dragon boat race today!"

Lu Zheng is not very old, but his speech and behavior are very mature. He aroused the emotions of the men on the dragon boat with a few words casually.

Luo Chenghuai is the drummer, and he is also the leader of this dragon boat. The Xinhe Luo family is a family that negotiates business on the water and has been good at navigating the boat for generations.

In the previous dragon boat competitions in Yangzhou, more than half of the drummers were Luo's children. In Luo Chenghuai's generation, the family was weakened. Luo Chenghuai went to battle with one arm, and he had no intention of winning in his heart.

In fact, the current dragon boat race has long lost its original meaning. For the Dragon Boat Race on the Slender West Lake, the focus of attention of the adults is on the ranking, because the ranking is determined by the level of the Hydrological Society.

In the dragon boat race itself, only the people in the market are still paying attention. In the end of the dragon boat race, who wins and who loses, the top official does not care, where is the motivation of the people below?

Lu Zheng seemed to be from an extraordinary background, and he was a scholar. It was rare that he cared so much about the game, which naturally moved Luo Chenghuai and others.

"Lu Gongzi is really talented. He didn't expect to understand dragon boats. Cheng Huai wished to hear more!"

Luo Chenghuai’s family learning origin is naturally an expert in boat manipulation. Lu Zheng’s understanding of dragon boats is based on the results of human scientific and technological research. Lu Zheng said his concept of dragon boat races, and Luo Chenghuai was stunned. , Stunned and speechless.

Every point Lu Zheng said was true. The so-called experts would know if they were there as soon as they reached out, and Luo Chenghuai quickly understood what Lu Zheng meant.

In fact, Luo Chenghuai is very clear about how to race the dragon boat, but it is one thing to understand the truth, but it is another thing to implement it.

There are more than a hundred men in the huge dragon boat. How can it be neatly and uniformly, how can it be changed in frequency, and hundreds of people are like arms. This is not easy to do, and it has to undergo rigorous long-term training.

However, a dragon boat race has limited attention itself, and the time and funds given above are not enough, and there is no time for long training. The reality is that the situation is not satisfactory.

However, the method Lu Zheng came up with was very characteristic. He avoided many difficulties in an incredible way. The boatman only needs to read poems and master the movement of the pulp according to the tone of the poem. It will naturally be neat and uniform.

Luo Chenghuai listened to Lu Zheng's narration, and then immediately organized everyone to practice once. Except for a few people who were not allowed to recite the poem, none of the others made a mistake.

This effect is much better than that of Luo Chenghuai's training for half a month. For a while, he regarded Lu Zheng as a celestial being. His Luo family relied on the water to make a living. Today, Lu Zheng was able to give him a trick, and it was an understatement. With one move, Luo Chenghuai was really unsatisfied with the problem that plagued the dragon boat.

Lu Zheng watched Luo Chenghuai greet the men for a few rounds, and watched the line of scattered sand become tidy. He couldn't help but smile. He raised his hand and greeted the boat operator to lean to the shore, and then he abandoned the boat and landed. Quickly integrated into the crowd.

...

Jiang Xindao, Qin Yue and Chen Gui's argument has reached the point where they disregard each other's gentleness.

The two were originally opponents, but now both sides hold different opinions, and there are countless followers behind them. There is only one topic, and that is whether the poem just now was written by Lu Zheng.

The debate on this issue is far from fruitless. The adults and masters on the high platform are also divided into two factions. Although there is no such fierce dispute as Qin Yue and Chen Gui and others, the secret struggle between each other is even more intense.

The significance behind this argument is far greater than the argument itself. For Qin Yue and Chen Gui, Chen Gui has been quibbling, and his purpose is to fight for the position of the leader.

As for the adults, they are thinking about the ranking of the counties. Now that Nie Yong and his Xinhe County are at the bottom, no one wants to let Nie Yong have a chance to stand up.

The two sides argued. Time passed. The crowd on the lake had been waiting for a long time. The crowd began to commotion. As the master of today's overall situation, Lord Liang needs to make a decision.

The reason why he hasn't made a decision for a long time is because everyone's dispute is about the issue of dragon boat ranking. The dragon boat in Xinhe County is now at the bottom!

If he wants to support Qin Yue, the dragon boats in Xinhe County will be ranked from the back to the top. This is bound to cause an uproar. This is why Chen Gui's concept is obviously far-fetched and why so many people support him.

Things can't be delayed endlessly. Liang Quanyi glanced at Nie Yong sympathetically and said:

"Well, the hour has passed, pass my token down, and the dragon boat race will start!"

With a single sentence, Lord Liang settled today's situation. He did not clearly support which party, but chose to maintain the status quo.

"Huh!" Many people breathed a sigh of relief, including Chen Gui.

Master Liang maintains the status quo, and today's literary meeting will not turn the sky over. The talents of Chen Gui can maintain their dignity, and the adults of each county can also maintain their own face.

"The dragon boat race is on. Let me pass on. If our county can win the first place today, I will reward you with a thousand silver!" Song Jin couldn't wait to throw out the reward.

Then the county lords in other counties also expressed their opinions. The dragon boat race, which was not very much concerned by everyone, now seems to have become more interesting!

"Master Nie, what's the matter? Don't you express your opinion? There must be a brave man under the reward. You can't bear to let your child not be wolves. For today's dragon boat race, you have to dare to pay for it!" Ma Xuewang approached Nie Yong and said with a smile on his face. It is full of playfulness.

Nie Yong frowned slightly and snorted softly. The dragon boat ranked Xinhe at the back, and there was no possibility of winning or losing.

Besides, the rewards that Song Jin and others offered were not about winning the first prize in the dragon boat, but about continuing to taunt him Nie Yong in this way.

In the officialdom, many things are so subtle that they can only understand that Nie Yong's heart that has just soothed before, now feels the pressure from the surroundings again.

Say one thousand, ten thousand, blame him Nie Yong is just a lonely ghost in Yangzhou, everyone is squeezed out, really aggrieved!

Nie Yong swallowed his breath. At this time, the Slender West Lake was already boiling, and the dragon boat race began.

The start and end of the dragon boat race are at the same place. Eight dragon boats circumnavigate the lake once, and the routes of the boats are all set with red ribbons.

The first dragon boat started, and Wei Yang waved in the wind. The first wave of cheers sounded instantly, then the second dragon boat, the third...

The huge dragon boat rushed forward on the lake like a swimming dragon. There were tens of thousands of onlookers on the lakeside shouting, drums bursting, shouting into the sky, and the atmosphere set off a wave of climax.

The eight dragon boats filed forward, and the people of all counties quickly found their own goals, and all the adults and talents on Jiangxin Island were also looking for their own goals.

"what……"

Suddenly someone exclaimed, and then someone shouted: "My God, why is the dragon boat in Xinhe County ranked seventh?"

This shout attracted the attention of many people, because after the start of the game, many people's eyes were focused on the front, and there was a lack of attention from behind.

But now everyone looks at the back and finds that the dragon boat in Xinhe County is very fast. At the forefront of the dragon boat, there is a one-armed drummer standing. Although this drummer has only one arm, he stands on the bow like a giant stone. Generally unshakable.

He played the drums with one hand, the sound of the drums was like thunder, and every blow had a moving aura, just when everyone was dumbfounded and still wondering about the dragon boat ranking in Xinhe County.

This dragon boat has continued to rush forward and has surpassed the sixth-ranked half dragon head.

Next, a more shocking scene appeared in front of everyone.

On the dragon boat, hundreds of men who worked on the paddle suddenly shouted in unison:

"The red flag is held high, flying out of the deep Yangliuzhu."

This turned out to be a poem. The tone of hundreds of men chanting this poem is very strange, but that tone has a magical connection with their movements.

Then the following verse is "Drumming the spring thunder, breaking the smoke and returning far away."

Hundreds of people yelled in a mighty voice. Seeing their dragon boats were so fast, it seemed that the boat-handling men had become more confident, and their shouts became louder because of this.

"The cheers shook the ground, and thousands of people were repelled from fighting spirits.

Jinbilou West, won the championship first. "

After a poem was finished, the dragon boat in Xinhe County had reached the sixth position, and it was chasing the fifth dragon boat in front, and the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed.

This scene made everyone stunned, especially on Jiangxin Island, where many masters, adults, and talented people looked at each other.

Liang Quanyi said startledly: "This is a good poem! Good!"

The other adults lifted their lips, but they did not speak. The last sentence of this poem hurt them too much. A dragon boat at the end was going to win the bidding first. Xinhe County put the other counties in the bidding. Ever put it in the eyes?

However, the situation on the scene has risen. Whether it is the boat riders or the onlookers in Xinhe County, everyone's morale has soared to the top. At this moment, they are already unstoppable.

The same poem was shouted again:

"The red flag is held high, flying out of the deep Yangliuzhu..."

With a shout, it seems that it possesses magical power. The dragon boat in Xinhe County is getting faster and faster. Amidst the fierce drums and loud shouts, the dragon boat in Xinhe County moves forward, riding the wind and waves, and invincible.

Finally, at the big bend at the end of the lake, this dragon boat has caught up with the dragon boat of Weiyang County, which is ranked number one, and the two sides are in a situation of advancing side by side.

"Come over and surpass Weiyang! I bid for the first place, I will reward the silver!" Nie Yong's eyes widened, his face flushed and he shot up, let out a heartbreaking roar!
