Chapter 411 During the Games (2)
As for this sports meet, it is just an experiment and an opportunity to promote it, not a real sports meet, so it is still a bit rough.
After the Circus Tour ended, it entered an audition period. What is the second major event? Archery, yes, is archery, especially in the Tang Dynasty at this time, almost every male family can shoot archery, even women, there are some who can shoot a few arrows. Moreover, because of the women who ran with them in front, many women also participated in the audition.
The auditions are mainly based on the yard, that is, each yard has a competition venue, each brings its own bows and arrows to participate in the auditions. If nothing unexpected happens, each yard will select at most two people. If there is a special place, you can report it. After another special selection, you will select the right candidate.
This is a carnival for the whole nation, this is a special sport. "Old man, you are here too," "Here, come, I was a sharpshooter back then, and I followed Emperor Yang back then, and I fought in the north and south." How old is he? At least he has to be the same age as Li Yuan.
"Little guy, are you here to participate in the competition?" "What, you are allowed to participate, so I am not allowed to participate. Look, I even have bows and arrows." He raised his little bow.
"Big girl, too." "What's wrong, what's wrong, I look down on us women, right? There was Mulan in ancient times, and there was a long-distance running champion in front of me. No one has seen Mulan before. You have seen the long-distance running champion, and that was the award given by the Queen himself." This seemed to be a little bad, but the hot girl said it well.
Fortunately, she did not speak to the goddess in the Romance of the Gods. Otherwise, some would have said it.
This is really not enough. It was because several women ran away with their husbands, and some elderly and children were added, so the auditions that were supposed to be planned for one day were held for four days. After four days, it was not finished. Several workshops actually had more than a dozen more outstanding contestants. So they added another special selection.
This little kid, the old man, is always a so-called soybean, so after the audition, the elderly and children were basically eliminated, but many women were selected, and some even had two women selected, directly eliminating the man.
However, for this reason, Yang Heng did not let Yang Hu change the rules. Perhaps, in the next game, there will be a group of men and women. But this time, even if it is a compound game, will women eliminate men not be more distinctive? Especially this time the theme is to bless Changsun.
The official archery competition was held at the Wuhou training ground. Although the auditions were very slow, the official competition was very fast. From the qualifiers, semi-finals, and finals, the competition was over in just one day. The most strange thing is that the champion of the competition was actually a woman. Her name was Sai Mulan. Yes, her surname was Sai, and she had forgotten her original name. Since the Yang family sang the play of Mulan, she has changed her name to Sai Mulan. Sai Mulan is only 28 years old. She didn't say anything, so she booked it for Yang Li, but a good result. She was a little worried about choosing a wife for Yang Li, so she was here to eat. Although she was just a woman from an ordinary family, the little girl was generous, especially with ambition. Even if she won the championship, she didn't see her as excited, but she seemed quite mature.
When it comes to the Yang family, choosing a relative is rather casual, not a matter of being a match. As long as it is suitable, it is enough. When Sai Mulan stood out in the auditions, she was noticed by Yang Heng. After careful inquiry, she finally called Yang Li to the scene on the morning of the official competition. After Yang Li nodded, she negotiated with Sai Mulan's family at noon. In the afternoon, she heard Sai Mulan's meaning and officially entered the marriage and marriage program. This is really a competition to choose a wife, which is an unexpected gain.
Sai Mulan was also quite satisfied. She had no idea of participating in any competition, but after listening to the long-distance running, she became very excited. She had never found a suitable husband. She was low, she looked down on others, and high, but she couldn't run, but she was so anxious that if she couldn't find her child, the official family would have to be appointed. The designated age was not very big, but due to Yang Heng's suggestion, there was no marriage between men and women, and if there were more than eighteen, the official family would force a marriage partner.
This competition is naturally not only a sport for civilians, but also a sport for wealthy families. Next, it is a sport for wealthy families. This is a coordination between people and horses, which is some competitions for dressed horse stance. This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do. First, it is clothing, and then horses. These are not conditions that ordinary people can have.
The so-called dressing naturally has the characteristics of the times, including the Hanfu horse riding event of literati, the full body armor of military generals, and even the full body armor of horses. Next is some student horse riding competitions. In short, this has been done in the Yang family many times. There are some people who want to be familiar with the Yang family, but they are not familiar with it. Don’t there be others who know it?
As a result, many people participated in this project, and even attracted the attention of the entire Chang'an City. Once again, Yang Heng earned enough advertising space fees.
Similarly, the Yang family did not participate in the competition this time, but the scene was still there, and they were the opening exhibition match.
In order not to be too conspicuous, Yang Heng arranged for the baby to perform seven dolls. As a result, they became the stars of this game. You should know that the dolls and Xiao Ma cooperated very well and were quite beautiful.
So, a game was completed in a boo, as if Yang Heng had offended all the rich people in the city. This was really not something Yang Heng could have imagined. He really didn't know that the children actually had such a move.
"Brother, we heard about our rewards. We didn't know that the whole game was better than the ones we rode on?" "Okay, okay, I'll give you a reward, but you have to tell me first, how did you train and when did you train?" Yang Heng was very curious. He originally wanted to teach a few children a few moves and let them go up and ride a few laps. As a result, hello.
"We have done it a long time ago. We learned to control horses with the children on the grassland. By the way, it seems to start with controlling sheep." Well, I was negligent and didn't pay attention to what you little kids are doing. It's such a mistake.
Next, it was Marseille, but this time it was an obstacle course. This time Yang Heng didn't dare to let his family do it, so he didn't let others make a fool of himself. Moreover, Yang Hu repeatedly promised that his family would not participate. In this way, he had just found enough candidates to participate in the competition, but they didn't know that this was not the strength of the Yang family. So it was normal for the Yang family to not participate, but they didn't know that, so Yang Heng once again gained a good reputation. In short, Yang Heng was just profitable.
The obstacle crossing was held outside the north gate because the site was relatively large and it was easier to set up some obstacles. Originally, Yang Heng planned to ask Yang Hu to arrange it on Zhuque Street, but after argumentation, it was not possible. One was a bit messy, the other was to destroy the road surface, dig a hole, design a pool, and even bury wooden piles. Finally, it was chosen to be held outside the city. The participants this time were mainly the families of military generals, because this obstacle crossing was basically a battlefield project. For civil servants, this was really not their strength.
"Haha, Cheng Rang, Cheng Rang, this champion, let me give you old Cheng a chance, haha, hahaha." After the game, Cheng Yaojing laughed so lewdly. Aren't you just a little more than the runner-up?
Chapter completed!
