Chapter 235 Playoff
Chapter 235 Playoffs
Qin Yao stared at Liu Ji gloomily.
She asked why this man suddenly said he wanted to watch a dragon boat race last night, and he was waiting here!
In just ten seconds, the situation in the stands changed.
The prefect declares the white flag to be the first. The person who opened the village and pressed the yellow flag will not be recognized. The person who pressed the double flag and won the first place will not be recognized.
But if the yellow flag is said to be first, neither the white flag nor the double flag would agree.
The prefect thought, OK, since they all don’t agree, let’s have another contest.
You should be satisfied now, right?
No!
The contestants in the competition said in unison that they were too tired and could not compete again today.
"What should we do? We can't come back tomorrow, right? The Dragon King's Banquet in Dengyun Tower has already started today!" Some people on the other side of the river shouted dissatisfied.
Liu Ji's heart tightened and he quickly turned his head back, his heart beating like a drum.
But when he looked at Liu Jishi again, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The captain handed over the oar, and he quickly grabbed it, thinking that he was going to die, so he had to beat her once and then die.
All the oarsmen turned their heads and looked at Liu Ji. They thought that the best man in the county must be at least eight feet tall. Who would have thought that he actually had a face that was more beautiful than a woman's? They were all stunned for a moment.
Liu Li was furious, he still wanted the title of Qi Xianguan!
“I, I, I, I know how to paddle, and I even won the first place in our county!” Liu Ji started telling lies.
After hearing this, the people felt even more satisfied. This was the most interesting thing, and they all agreed.
The evil woman Qin Yao is just strong, but dragon boat racing cannot be won by one person with strong strength. It depends on teamwork, and individual advantages will only be continuously diminished by the team.
It is dangerous for a child to stay on such a high treetop, so Qin Yao immediately moved the whole family and Liu Li and his servant to the stone bridge.
“No!” Miss He shouted loudly, and all the people on the opposite side drank it up.
Qin Yao watched Liu Ji get on the dragon boat from a distance. Her first reaction was to see who among the children was watching. She was relieved when she saw two adults, Liu Li and Da Zhuang, nearby.
The captain of the white team raised his lips slightly when he saw that there were actually seven or eight female rowers on the yellow team's dragon boat. He felt that he was sure.
At this time, a calm voice with a childish tone sounded.
He Zhanghua shook his head, "No need, I, the yellow team member, are very good."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was noisy all fell silent. Right, wouldn't it be nice to find someone to compete with?
The drummer and captain of the yellow and white teams also nodded and said they could continue to help lead the team and take the lead.
The rowers of both teams were all in place, and the dragon boat rowed under the stone bridge, waiting for the order.
He Zhifu: "."
The guard of the Qi family pointed at Liu Ji, "The one who won the first place, come up!"
The maid also nodded excitedly and continued to recruit people.
Liu Jicai doesn't care about them. As long as he can get on the ship, there is still hope for his private money.
Magistrate He looked at Qi Xianguan who proposed the solution with admiration, and then helplessly looked at his noisy and jumping daughter, thinking that people are really more irritating than others.
“Everyone, please stop arguing! Since no one is satisfied no matter how the decision is made, and the members of both teams are not willing to play an extra game, wouldn’t it be good to find someone else to replace the two teams and play again?”
Well, it seems that the only way is to start over.
This was written by the famous child prodigy Qi Xianguan himself, and there are many people who are willing to pay high prices to buy it for the collection. At that time, there were people who didn't know how to paddle, so they rushed to get on the dragon boat just to get the title of Qi Xianguan.
In order to keep private money, I risked my life!
Compared with the excited spectators, the members of the yellow and white teams were not so persistent. After all, their bodies would not be able to bear another competition.
Now there are actually seven or eight female rowers in the Yellow Team. They are far behind in strength and their speed is definitely not as good as theirs.
Liu Ji came to the important position of the dragon's tail with the title of the first rower in Kaiyang County. As soon as he sat down, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
Yes, they can definitely win! Liu Ji silently brainwashed himself and became extremely confident.
“If our yellow team wins first place, my lady will give each person a reward of one or two silver coins!”
“Hey!” Liu Li was stunned and wanted to call someone to stop him, but Liu Ji had already rushed to the white team’s dragon boat.
So, gritting his teeth, he pushed the four Dalang brothers and sisters in front of Liu Li, who was eager to try, "Brother Liu Li, please!"
Qin Yao pushed San Lang and Si Niang in front of Liu Ji, immediately raised her hands and jumped off the stone bridge, "I'll come!"
The audience can still accept this, at least the result is clear. No matter who comes first, the loser is also convinced.
Liu Ji watched Qin Yao successfully enter the yellow team on the stone bridge. He was anxious, he was anxious!
The guards hurriedly took the captain of the white team to screen the people, leaving only the tall, strong and powerful ones.
Women's arm strength is not as strong as that of men, and what rowers need most is arm strength, so there are so many strong men.
Miss He saw the woman jumping directly from the bridge onto the Yellow Team's dragon boat. She looked at the maid in surprise, "She is a martial arts lady!"
If Team Huang wins, he will never get back the personal money he bet.
I saw the prodigy Qi Xianguan, who had been sitting next to the prefect’s wife, stand up and say loudly:
Now everyone knows that there is still a playoff, and by the time they react and want to return to their original good position on the stone bridge, it is already too late.
Miss He stood up immediately, without waiting for her father to say anything. She waved to the maid behind her, and the maid announced loudly:
“Any rower who is willing to join the yellow team and help our yellow team win first place, regardless of success or failure, will each receive a reward of one tael of silver!”
Whatever comes first is not as important as your own life.
Because they occupied the space quickly, the Qin and Yao families now directly guard the center of the stone bridge.
"Is there any silver reward?" Qin Yao, who had moved from the tree to the stone bridge, raised her eyebrows. She can do this job!
Just now when everyone was arguing about who would win first among the yellow and white teams, the stone bridge that was originally crowded with people became empty.
In the stands, Qi Xianguan couldn't help but glance at his confident cousin, thinking that she would definitely cry if she lost in a while, so he reminded her loudly:
“Cousin Zhang Hua, it’s not too late for you to change someone now. We can wait until you change someone before we start.”
"In that case, why not Mr. Qi and Miss He form a team each and have another game to determine the outcome?" the official nearby suddenly suggested.
“Then let’s maintain the original decision!” the people who held down the white flag shouted excitedly.
Looking back subconsciously, he saw Qin Yao standing on Team Huang's dragon boat next to him, pointing at him, and then coldly raised his hand and made a faint scratch in front of his neck.
So Liu Ji felt that his team's probability of winning was very high.
Looking at Qi Xianguan again, he directly wrote a few poems on the spot and gave them to the rowers who were willing to help the white team win the championship.
“After all, women are not as strong as men.” Qi Xianguan thought that she did not understand his reminder, so he said it clearly.
How could He Zhanghua not know this? She selected all the team members on the ship, and she favored them, regardless of gender.
