Chapter 472
(Thanks to Tiankoushan Gui, Sweet Potato Vine, and Xingziyun for their monthly ticket support!)
Players on both sides were running like horses, running on the court. Ju balls were flying in the air, sometimes white robes were dominant, and sometimes brown led. Seeing that half an hour of the first game was about to come, both sides were still in a stalemate.
At this time, the score on the field was scored by Xin Xi alone, Shi Haiwan and Shi Jingcun and Qi Bizhang each scored one goal, and the Bai team had already planted six small flags. Although no one from Shen Ce Army scored three goals alone, the comparison also reached six points.
Liu Xun and others had already received Li Jing's instructions before they came on the court. They did not need to score goals. Their task was to try to prevent the opponent from scoring, grab the ball and pass the ball to Xin Xi, and create a goal opportunity for Xin Xi. In addition to his good polo skills, Xin Xi was also able to score three goals, and he also had the repeated wonderful passes of Liu Xun and Gao Siji. However, Li Cunxiao and Wang Yanzhang were not good at the ball. They were completely a messing stick on the court, specializing in destructive actions.
Grab the ball, bump, intercept, and block the position, these are the roles they play.
At this time, Niu Xu, the striker of the Shence Army who was staring at by Li Cunxiao, roared angrily, waved his moon staff and hit Li Cunxiao and others. His ball skills were the best among the Zuo Shence Army, but he was stubbornly troubled by Li Cunxiao and Wang Yanzhang. He had not yet scored a goal, and he was completely angry.
Seeing his fierce movements, Li Cunxiao not only did not give in, but instead showed a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth. He also made a move to grab the ball, lifted up the moon staff and swung it away. However, the staff was just aimed at the ball, but directly towards the people.
The two moon rods collided violently. Under Li Cunxiao's huge power, the heads of the two sticks broke directly. The moon rod in Li Cunxiao's hand continued to exert force, and finally hit Niu Xu's forearm. With a snap, Niu Xu screamed and fell off his horse. At that moment, he felt that his arm bones had been shattered.
"This is a foul!" Chen Jingxuan jumped up and shouted, while pointing fingers.
Tian Lingzi also immediately stood up and said to Li Yan on the viewing stand of the front pavilion: "Your Majesty. This is intentional injury!"
Li Yan leaned on the soft couch and watched the game on the court with concentration. When he heard Tian Lingzi's words, he didn't look back, "This is indeed intentional injury."
Tian Lingzi was happy and was about to let the emperor punish Li Cunxiao, but he heard the emperor say, "Niu Xu's swing was obviously aimed at Li Cunxiao. But he didn't expect that Li Jing's four disciples were indeed worthy of being a powerful general who had killed the big insect with bare hands. Not only did he avoid it, but instead counterattacked. Niu Xu, this is really a stealing chicken and losing a lot of rice. Playing basketball is just playing basketball, although collision is inevitable. But such intentional hurtful intention is wrong. If you suspend the game and carry Niu Xu down, it is estimated that his arm will be broken, and the following game will not be played. Tian Gong and Zuo Shence team will substitute."
"Your Majesty, then Li Cunxiao?"
Li Yan snorted coldly and didn't say anything. Tian Lingzi quickly shut up. He knew that he had suffered a big loss now. Niu Xu is a polo master of Yi Fang and is now defeated in the first game. What's more important is that with this beginning, I'm afraid no one will dare to attack the other party in the future.
After a brief timeout, the game continues.
Starting over, Xin Xi's team immediately played a wonderful cooperation. Liu Xun and Gao Si followed one by one and broke through the interception of Shen Ce team and had already reached the vicinity of the hole. At this time, Xin Xi had also escaped from the interception of Shen Ce team and arrived on horseback.
Yang Shili of Shence team was shocked and several people surrounded him separately. At this time, Luo Yuangao, who was in front, found that there was no one in the middle, and a gap appeared. He was anxious and shouted: "The middle lane is empty, hurry up and return to defense, return to defense in the middle lane."
As soon as Luo Yuangao finished calling, Li Cunxiao had already urged the horse to come over.
At the same time, Xin Xi, who had been surrounded, did not continue to try to score the goal, but directly hit a very beautiful back-knock. The polo flew out of the gap between Shen Ce team's several riders and landed directly next to Li Cunxiao, who was unguarded. Li Cunxiao's fierce move just now, directly brought Niu Xu off the field. Therefore, the new Shen Ce Army players did not dare to get too close, and they also saw that Li Cunxiao, a guy who was not good at polo except for making trouble. Therefore, he slightly adjusted his tactics and they were the main focus on Xin Xi, and then Mi Haiwan, Liu Xun and others, who ignored Li Cunxiao and Wang Yanzong.
The ball was right in front of the horse. Li Cunxiao had been on the court for so long. This was the first time that the ball had been passed in front of him. He couldn't help but be excited, so he rode his horse forward and rushed forward with a fierce swing. When Luo Yuangao was less than 1 zhang away, he hit the ball out.
The colorful ball drew a beautiful arc, flew past Luo Yuangao in a straight line, and landed in front of Wang Yanzhang's horse.
Luo Yuangao quickly rode his horse to intercept Wang Yanzhang, who was unguarded. Wang Yanzhang laughed: "Can you stop me?"
Before Luo Yuangao could rush forward, Wang Yanzhang swung directly and actually hit the ball at Li Cunxiao who had already rushed forward.
Luo Yuangao hurriedly stopped Li Cunxiao again, but Li Cunxiao was about to get closer and hit another shot in front of Wang Yanzhang's horse.
Li Cunxiao and Wang Yanzhang's polo skills are indeed not very good, but no matter how good they are, they are brave enough to be brave. The batting is the same as riding and shooting. One method is the same as one method and a hundred methods are available. Without anyone to guard the ball, the two of them hit the ball alternately and pass the ball alternately.
Luo Yuangao was played around like a monkey, but at this time the others were dragged by Xin Xi and others. For a moment, he was exhausted, but he could only watch the two of them get closer and closer to the goal. In the end, he could only pray that their ball skills were not good, and they could not enter even if they were brought to the goal.
"Look at my goal!" Li Cunxiao looked at the field, Xin Xi and others were still entangling other members of the Shence Army, and they couldn't catch the ball for a while. After thinking about it, they simply shot by themselves.
After a loud roar, Li Cunxiao waved the crescent stick and hit the ball hard. The ball whizzed past Luo Yuangao again. Thirty steps away, the ball passed through the hole and entered the net.
There was a sudden thunderous joy outside the court, and everyone could see that when he first came on the court, this black man didn't know how to hit the ball at all, he just did things randomly. But now, he actually made such a wonderful pass with another black man, alternately receiving the ball, and then a decisive kill.
Thirty steps outside the hole, this is completely the level of playing ball. Many royal princesses, noble ladies and ladies in the stands screamed excitedly.
When Li Yan, who was in the stands in the front hall, saw this goal, he couldn't help but slapped his thighs heavily, jumped up and fisted and shouted: "Good ball, beautiful!!" Tian Lingzi next to him grinned because the thigh that the emperor had just slapped was his thigh.
Li Jing was also sitting on the side of the emperor at this time. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Duke of Qi, you disciple has a very personality and I like it very much. Why not leave him in the palace to play with me?"
"Your Majesty is a rude disciple. I am just a disciple from Dai Beiyi Fang's sheep kid, and it is very vulgar and difficult to control. The ball just now was just a blind cat hitting a dead mouse. If he lets him hit another ball now, he will definitely not hit. How dare such a minister stay by His Majesty's side with dirty eyes!"
The emperor heard that Li Cunxiao was just a shepherd boy, but when he saw Li Jing, he was reluctant to let him go, it would be fine now.
There was a gong on the court, and the first game was time. The score on the court was finally seven to six, and the local governor team was one point ahead of the Shence Imperial Army. However, anyone with discerning eyes had seen that the Shence team was already at an absolute weakness. Without Niu Xu, the following game would be even more difficult to play.
During the half-time break, the two teams of knights dismounted and rested, drank tea and water, and replaced the horses. The nobles watching the game also stood up to change clothes and drink tea, etc.
Taking advantage of this space, the emperor actually smiled and said to Li Jing and Tian Lingzi and other ministers: "This game is indeed exciting. One side is the Polo Power Team Shence Team. Last year, the Zuo Shence Team won the championship. However, although the governors here seem to have a few skills that are not very proficient in the ball skills, the victory is amazing. I have a suggestion that it is better to open a banker. My dear friends bet on the team they like each other. How about our monarch and ministers betting on each other's team together?"
Yang Fugong immediately smiled and said, "I wonder how the two teams are in this village, your majesty, are they? "
"If you bet the winner, you will be compensated one. If you bet the game, you will be compensated two. If you bet the number of goals, you will be compensated ten. If you bet the number of goals scored by a single player, you will be compensated twenty."
Seeing that the emperor actually opened a house to set up a bet, Li Jing, Zheng Congxian and others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Tian Lingzi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why not let the old slave come and build a village?"
Li Yan followed Tian Lingzi's gaze and saw that Zheng Congyi, Zheng Ting, Li Jing, Yu Guan, Yu Cong, Li Wei, Cui Anqian and other ministers all had bad expressions and knew that these ministers were opposed in their hearts. At that moment, Tian Lingzi came to build a farmhouse. Anyway, there was no difference between Tian Lingzi's farmhouse and he himself.
The gambling house was soon established, and Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong, Zhang Tai and others all placed a bet of 100,000 yuan, but they did not bet which team won, but directly bet whether Li Cunxiao could score another goal. The odds were one-on-one-ten accompanying ten.
Li Yan also gambled, but he was more professional, and bet on all the players on the field, betting on their goals. Tian Lingzi also called a lot of eunuchs and asked them to take the notebooks to find the nobles watching the game to bet. Arita Gong bet publicly, so naturally everyone bets.
"Duke of Qi, I wonder how you bet?" Tian Lingzi said with a sinister smile. Today, so many nobles participated in this bet, and those who opened the bank will definitely be the final winner and can make a big profit.
"Can I place bets at will?" Li Jing asked with a smile.
"Yes." Tian Lingzi smiled even more enthusiastically.
"Then I'll bet on the white team to win and bet five million pounds!" Li Jing smiled brightly, but Tian Lingzi was stunned for a moment.
Seeing that he wanted to deny it, Li Jing sneered: "Justice Tian just now, he seemed to say that he could bet casually. Could it be that he can't afford to play it now?"
