The track was set up on the streets of Xiyun County.
Since the teams are organized by towns, each town will first organize its registered personnel to compete.
The events include sprint, long and short distance running, high jump, long jump, iron ball throwing, relay race, etc.
Those who practice martial arts are not allowed to participate. If caught, they will be punished with three hundred strokes of the cane!
All residents of Xiyun County and surrounding areas can participate, regardless of the disaster situation.
Each town can elect representatives to participate in various sports.
Not only can you win the Royal No. 1 Thresher in the relay race, but the town that wins the overall points will receive eight threshers, the runner-up five, and the third place winner three!
Therefore, teamwork is particularly important!
Yuzhong - around noon, that is, around 10 am.
The first group of competitions begins.
It is a 30-zhang (1 zhang = 3.3 meters) sprint, and the participants include Liang Erhu, Xiaolian’s seventh uncle, and many others!
The track was surrounded by a huge crowd of spectators, making it impossible to get through!
"Seventh Uncle! Come on!" Xiaolian shouted!
"Erhu! Come on!" Erhu's mother also shouted!
"Tiedan! Come on!"
Everyone is shouting for their own people!
Liang Qiuyu didn't want to shout at first, but Xiaolian "encouraged" her to join in! She kept shouting "Come on, Erhu!" and "Come on, Uncle Qi!"
"Ridiculous! Ridiculous!" Some people couldn't stand it. "We just suffered a disaster, and the scars haven't healed yet, but you've already forgotten the pain!"
Someone retorted, "My family can't even grow enough rice for one Royal No. 1, let alone ten. Besides, the disaster has already happened. What can we do by mourning?"
Someone responded, "That's right! If you don't like it, you can just go home! No one will stop you!"
With the bang of the gong, the competition begins!
The street is big enough for eight people to compete in the finals at the same time!
The three fastest figures were Liang Erhu, Uncle Qi and Tiedan!
Liang Erhu had only one thought in his mind: if he won, his mother would use the money to find him a wife as beautiful as Sister Qiuyu.
In just three or four breaths (one breath is about two or three seconds), the winner was decided!
Champion: Tiedan! Runner-up: Liang Erhu! Third place: Qishu!
Brother Erhu couldn't accept this result. How could he lose to the silly Tiedan? Fortunately, he could still participate in the 120-meter race!
"Erhu, don't be discouraged! Tiedan will never be able to outrun you if you run far!" Liang Qiuyu stepped forward to comfort Liang Erhu.
"Sister Qiuyu... Madam..." Liang Erhu was still not used to calling Liang Qiuyu Madam Liang Fei. But he no longer had any "improper thoughts" about Liang Qiuyu. His Majesty was his savior!
Xiaolian brought a bowl of water to Liang Erhu, and her younger brother was also there.
Not far away, Chao Man'er, disguised as a woman, saw Liang Qiuyu and the others. Next to her was a fair-skinned scholar named Pang Hai.
"Miss, you see, even though this woman became the concubine of a tyrant emperor, she still disregarded propriety and morality and had affairs with other men," Pang Hai said.
"Humph! I'm not blind!"
In fact, it is not difficult to assassinate the tyrant, as long as she can get close to him and be alone with him - I, Chao Man'er, am much more beautiful than that hypocritical peasant girl!
Got it! Chao Man'er was overjoyed.
The competition is in full swing.
Mr. Zhang had already thought of his idea, so he went out for a walk.
It would have been fine if he didn't come out. Once he came out, everyone looked at him—
The idol is coming!
Especially those girls who were waiting to be married, they showed shyness towards him.
Frightened, Lord Zhang quickly went to find Lord Wang, where there were soldiers who could protect him.
Grandpa, if I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have sung that song! I have a feeling that Your Majesty did it on purpose!
"Boss, why can't we participate? I'm afraid we'll never see such a competition again!"
Captain Li patted the head of the excited yamen runner and said, "Although you have only mediocre skills, you are still martial artists after all. Do you want to go and compete with General Meng and the others?"
Although Captain Li was a very smooth-talking man, he had a kind heart. If he hadn't been dealing with Xiyun County over the years, the people of Xiyun County would probably have been exploited even more severely by Jia Shidao.
The neighboring Dongyun County is a living example.
Although Dongyun County is low-lying, it is not so extreme that such disasters occur every year, some large and some small.
Why, then, did the people of Dongyun County seem so helpless in the face of disasters? It's because they have too many thatched houses, making them vulnerable to strong winds. After repeated occurrences, the people of Dongyun County have become numb to it.
Like many people, before meeting His Majesty, Captain Li thought that His Majesty was a tyrant. But if such a people-loving His Majesty is still a tyrant, then he is not blind in sight, but blind in heart!
What is ridiculous is that in the northern Yanyun Road, there are people who say that Your Majesty has killed loyal people like Jia Shidao and indulged in reveling every night... Your Majesty is clearly eliminating harm for the people!
It's ridiculous!
Captain Li was thinking while acting as a referee for the long jump!
At this time, a man had already jumped out of a distance of two meters and immediately won applause.
The women's group was also very exciting.
Erhu's mother also came to participate. Erhu's mother wanted to bring Qiu Yu's mother along, but Qiu Yu refused. Now she was bringing the women from Liangjiazhuang to cheer Erhu's mother up.
In ancient times, women were not allowed to show their faces in public. However, this was a barbarian land, and all the participants were women. At first, some women were unable to run freely, but in the end...
Who wouldn’t want to take fifty taels of silver?
In Xiyun County, assuming that one acre of rice can produce 350 kilograms of rice and 250 kilograms of rice, ten acres of rice can only produce 2,500 kilograms of rice.
