I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 166 You wild bastard, you also deserve the surname Liu? (seeking subscription)
Xu Guanghan is very familiar with this place, he went to look for it one by one, and would ask one or two acquaintances from time to time.

Liu He followed him forward, looking curiously at the people passing by.

Most of these young people were around his age, and they either came out of the cockfighting hut with red eyes and shirtless arms; Win big money cockfights yourself.

When Liu He was immersed in this magical environment, Xu Guanghan's shout suddenly came from ahead.

Liu He saw that Xu Guanghan was standing in front of a cockfighting house and waving at him.

Liu He, who was in a daze, suddenly became more awake, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly followed.

"Mr. Chu, Liu Bing is already inside, do you want me to call him out?"

"No, I'll go in by myself."

"This...the people in the fighting chicken house are full of miscellaneous eyes, they are all some prodigal sons, I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't matter, Guo Xia will accompany me in."

"Hahaha, this place is really wonderful, why didn't there be such an interesting place when I was young?" Guo Kai became even more excited.

"walk into!"

Liu He took a deep breath and walked into the crowded cockfighting room.

……

Liao means a small thatched cottage.Every cockfighting house is very unseemly.

It looks crooked from the outside, but it's even more frowning when you walk in.

In the cockfighting house, which is less than two feet square, there is a cockfighting garden surrounded by bamboo rafts in the middle, which takes up almost half of the space.

A dozen shirtless or bunted men crammed into the remaining space.

They gathered around the cockfighting garden, yelling "Kill, kill, kill" loudly with their thick necks, and occasionally they could hear a cock crowing or two.

Most people still hold bamboo pieces painted green or red, which must be chips.

A few other people stood on the periphery, looking at the group of gamblers indifferently. They were the croupiers and thugs in the cockfighting house.

As soon as Liu He came in, he smelled a strong stench—the smell of chicken feces and sweat, which was disgusting.

He frowned, endured the disgust, and took another two steps forward.

Noisy and smelly, double torture.

Unlike Liu He, those gamblers are like crazy.

At this time, it should be the critical moment of "two chickens fighting each other". Those gamblers were completely focused on the two chickens fighting in the nursery, and they didn't notice anyone coming in at all.

On the contrary, the banker and the thugs looked at Liu He viciously, and two people walked up from the left and right sides, and stretched out their hands to stop Liu He from continuing to walk in.

"What's the matter with you?!" A burly bearded man said in a low voice, with a bad tone.

Although Liu He was wearing an ordinary silk robe, he was very conspicuous among the group of people in sackcloth.

In Dahan, cockfighting and running dogs are a national entertainment, not only the heads of Guizhou will participate, but officials and officials cannot be left behind.

It's just that the place to participate in cockfighting is different.

"I also want to go in and have fun," Liu He said.

"This game is decided to leave, we have to wait for the next game." The bearded man seemed to soften his tone.

"Is there anyone like you waiting to open a dormitory and set up a trap? Do you still have to keep people out? Do you understand the rules of opening a dorm and setting up a trap!?"

Guo Kai also walked in with Xu Guanghan, and he stepped to Liu He's side in two or three steps, holding the sword hilt and looking up at the bearded beard without any fear.

Evil people have their own evil people, and rangers are the most evil people.

The bearded man didn't recognize Guo Kai, but he recognized the sword in his waist, and even more recognized the violence on his body that would draw a sword to kill someone at the first sight of a disagreement, so he didn't say much, moved out of the way, returned to his original position, and a few The companions began to whisper.

"Here, don't put on an appearance of a modest gentleman, but show a fighting spirit." Guo Kai said contemptuously, and went straight into the crowd, as if he was also quite interested in cockfighting.

Liu He asked Xu Guanghan in a low voice, "Which one is Liu Bing already?"

"The one over there that screams the loudest." Xu Guanghan pointed to a young man opposite the cockfighting house and said.

Because there were no windows in the cockfighting hut, and the young man was crowded inside, Liu He couldn't see Liu Bingji's appearance clearly. He could only see from his appearance that he was a thin, tall young man.

He was shirtless at the moment, his whole body was flushed red, his hair was a little loose, and he was holding two green chips tightly in his hands, stepping on the bamboo strips in the cockfighting garden, waving his hands and shouting loudly. Shouted "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Well, don't disturb him, wait until the result of this game comes out."

"promise!"

Liu He and Xu Guanghan also squeezed in from Guo Kai's side, and finally saw the situation in the fighting cock nursery.

……

Cockfighting is an activity that has been around for a long time.

From Shang and Zhou to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States to the Qin Dynasty, from the Qin Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, it has never declined, and the atmosphere is getting better every day.

In "Zuo Zhuan", it is recorded that two doctors of the State of Lu, because during the cockfight, one sprinkled mustard powder on the wings of the chicken, and the other put spikes on the paws, cheating each other. A turmoil caused Duke Lu to flee to other countries.

However, the method of cheating by the doctor of the State of Lu is already common among big men. During the cockfight, as long as no manpower is involved, they can do whatever they want on the rooster.

……

At this time, in the cockfighting garden were two strong roosters, with small and collapsed crowns, slender and long necks, sharp beaks, broad and broad chests, strong and thick legs, and long and sharp claws... ...twice as tall as an ordinary rooster.

Not only are these fighting cocks ferocious, they also wear polished iron spikes on their beaks and claws - to make fighting more intense.

It is said that these gamecocks have to be raised for two and a half years before they can be selected for the gamecock nursery.

The two roosters in the nursery must have been out for a long time, and the hair on their backs and wings has fallen a lot, and strands of blood are still oozing from their bodies.

Their combs were dyed red and green, respectively, to match the colors on the chips.

Under the constant provocation of the two thugs with bamboo spears behind them, the two roosters sometimes approached to fight, sometimes tossed and turned, and sometimes screamed and screamed...

The sharp claws are tearing, the sharp beaks are pecking frequently... like two top swordsmen, fighting to the death.

The fluttering feathers fluttered all over the room amidst the howls of the gamblers, mixed with the smell of blood, which made them even more frenzied.

After watching for a moment, Liu He also became a little nervous. He silently chose a side in his heart, and followed the gambler and shouted loudly.

"Kill kill kill!"

"Kill kill kill!"

……

The red game cock found the right time, flew up suddenly, and rushed towards the green game cock. It caught the green game cock with its iron claws and poked into the latter's eyes.

"Oh--"

With a scream, the green gamecock was completely defeated and had no strength to fight back. It was chased by the red gamecock and ran around in the gamecock nursery.

"it is good!"

"Ugh!"

Among the gamblers, there were two completely different voices, representing different moods.

Liu He found that he was drenched in sweat, and his voice became even hoarse after shouting.

The banker with a bamboo spear in his hand pierced the defeated rooster halfway through with a sharp and accurate stab, and blood flowed out.

The dealer stretched out his hand to pick up the chicken, and shouted angrily: "This chicken costs ten yuan, nourishing yin and tonifying yang, who wants to buy it?"

Several good-natured people immediately surrounded him and showed the five baht coins in their hands.

The rest of the gamblers also gradually dispersed. Those with red chips happily went to the dealer to withdraw money, while those with green chips threw their chips away and walked out of the cockfighting room cursing.

The people in the fighting cockpit gradually thinned out, and Liu He finally saw Liu's illness clearly.

However, he looks about seventeen or eighteen years old, looks upright, with a heroic spirit exuding from his brows, a sackcloth slung over his shoulders, and has an unruly expression.

Liu Bing had already cursed fiercely at the winner in the cockfighting garden, patted the chicken feathers on his body, and was about to walk out the door.

"My lord, he is Liu Bingji."

Liu He nodded, and was about to walk over with Xu Guanghan, but someone took a step ahead of them—the four or five thugs had already blocked Liu Bing inside.

"Why stop me?"

"You lost again?" the bearded man said.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, so what if you lose, just come back tomorrow!" Liu Bing was already standing obliquely, with a straw in his mouth not only from time to time.

"I won't talk about whether you will come tomorrow, but don't forget that you just borrowed another [-] yuan from us. What we owed earlier, including the principal and interest, is [-] yuan. I heard that you have a district in Shangguanli. Zhaizi, let’s use it to pay off the debt, and I’ll give you an extra [-] yuan when I wait for benevolence and righteousness.”

It turned out that Liu Bing had already owed his gambling debts.

Liu He held back a smile and looked at Xu Guanghan who was beside him. Liu Bingji, the old father-in-law who hadn't come to the house, was so angry that his lips turned white.

What a vertical!

"Are you crazy about wanting money? Didn't you promise to pay it back at the end of the month? What are you waiting for? Don't worry. At the end of the month, when the money and food are distributed, they will naturally come to exchange money."

"You are a small fight, and the money and food for a month are only seven dendrobium millet. Then it will be the year of the monkey, and I can't wait that long?"

"Then it has nothing to do with me. The things agreed can't be changed. You have to wait if you don't wait." Liu Bing had finished speaking, and he stretched out his hand to push those people away.

"I think you don't know how to live or die. In this fighting cock alley, no one dares to go out like this."

While the bearded man was talking, he already had a few more bamboo sticks in his hands—it seemed that he didn't intend to take Liu Bingji's life, but just wanted to make him suffer.

Liu Bingji was actually not afraid, took a step back, and said fiercely: "You can come here, but if you call out, my surname is not Liu. The house in that district is not mine, and I will definitely not give it to you."

"Hmph, you are also worthy of the surname Liu, a bastard with no father and no mother, who knows where his ancestors are, a rascal!"

This sentence angered the two people in the room at the same time.

Liu Bingji and Liu He yelled viciously almost in unison: "You say that sentence just now again!?"
