Chapter 137 During the Games [Part 2]
"Wow, Daddy~ Look at those puppies, they are so interesting." Lingdang sat on my lap and pointed happily at the underworld hounds performing fire hoops in the center of the sports field and said.
I could only nod perfunctorily, this child was too noisy. From now on, all the opening performances of the sports festival made him very excited.
But it's understandable that he would be like this.
I remember that a long time ago, I had a long all-night conversation with Lingdang. He told me that after Gao Changgong, his biological father, was killed, his mother took him and escaped from Kyoto.
Not long after, Lingdang's mother also died of illness. The young Lingdang made a living by begging, and not long after, she ended her life in a heavy snowfall.
Transformed into a ghost, he secretly ate the incense offered in the local earth temple. Then, by some strange combination of circumstances, his soul that was about to fly away solidified and began to wander in the world of the underworld all day long.
I don't know how many years have passed, but one time, he accidentally met the most famous Yin-Yang Mr. Han Xin at that time. Han Xin saw that he had strong Yin energy and strong resentment, so he subdued him in the barrier.
When Bell finally broke through the restrictions of the barrier and saw the light of day again, he was already in Han Xin's tomb. After that, hundreds of years passed, and he was alone, lonely and helpless.
In Han Xin's tomb, the yin and resentment of the bell became stronger and stronger, causing him to change from a soul state to a physical entity.
It wasn't until Xiaochen led us to visit Han Xin's tomb that he was rescued from the 'cage' that would never see the light of day. Then, because I was the reincarnation of Gao Changgong, he stuck to my side.
Refuse to leave.
"Next, please invite the athletes participating in Cuju to come on stage! Only thirty-two people are required to build the ball! The winning team will get the benefit of going to the fifth hall hot spring and soaking in the hot spring!" As the ghost lamp hosting the sports festival shouted
Shouting, the audience immediately exploded.
All the young and energetic ghosts pushed each other and rushed towards the center. I shrugged contemptuously. I just wanted to go to the hot springs. Why were I so excited?
Seeing me like this, Lu Fa, who was gearing up at the side, gave me a white look.
I looked at her movements in confusion: "What? Are you going too?"
"Of course, I like to play Cuju the most." Lu Fafa said, showing the eight white teeth in his mouth and smiling sweetly.
After that, Lu Fafa stopped talking to me. She pushed away the ghosts who were blocking her way and pushed her way towards the center of the sports meeting. Lu Fafa was also unstoppable. When all the ghosts saw her momentum, they were so frightened that they all ran away.
She made a way.
I chuckled and looked at Lu Fafa's back. The first impression she gave me was not like this. She seemed to be a different person when she came to the sports festival.
Somehow, I subconsciously looked towards Lingdang. Lingdang was nestled in my arms, looking at Lu Fafa with two big eyes, full of excitement.
It wasn't until Lu Fafa rushed all the way and successfully reported his place in Cuju in front of the ghost lamp that Ling Dang waved his little hand vigorously and shouted to Lu Fafa loudly: "Aunt Lu! Come on!"
I don't know if I heard the sound of the bell, but I saw Lu Fafa standing there, waving at the bell vigorously, like a child.
"Come on." I compared my palms to the shape of a trumpet and cheered for her.
After Gui Deng introduced some rules, the Cuju competition began. I sat on the audience stand with great interest, staring at the entire stadium. Watching the Cuju competition was just like a football match, it was exciting.
Although I am not very good at playing football.
The Cuju game is divided into three games, with a best-of-three game system. The rules are also very simple, just kick the ball into the opponent's goal.
The game started, and the team formed by Lu Fafa was also very brave. They won two games in a row, and the third game was canceled without any competition. According to common sense, Lu Fafa and the others already had an overwhelming advantage.
If the competition continues, only the losing team will be slapped in the face.
"Ah, I won, hehe."
Lu Fafa held a hot spring roll in her hand and walked back to the auditorium. She casually touched the sweat on her forehead and sat down. Then she said to the bell with a happy face: "Little bell, aunt will bring it tomorrow."
Would you like to go to the fifth hall to soak in the hot springs? Children are free."
"Okay, okay, thank you, auntie." When Lingdang heard this, his little face turned into a smile. He abandoned me as a 'father' and instead got into Lu Fafa's arms, regardless of the sweat on his body.
He hugged Lu Fafa's arm hard and rubbed his little head affectionately.
Humph, you have no ambition! I said angrily.
The competition continued, and the unexpected methods and content of each competition made me exclaim again and again. It was like swimming in boiling hot water, fighting with giant hounds, and competing to see who could kill more evil spirits.
The sound of cannons is used as a preparation sound for running races, etc.
All the competitions not only attracted my attention, but also opened my eyes as a newcomer.
After the final long-distance running event ended and more than two hundred participants returned to their respective positions, the host, Gui Deng, cleared his throat and continued: "Now, it's the most exciting moment again! That's right,
The final event of today's competition - desperate escape, is about to begin! Those who want to participate, please come to me to sign up quickly! The winner's reward is the best in history!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Guideng finished speaking such attractive words, the entire auditorium fell into a deathly silence, and no one dared to say a word.
Even the noisiest audience during the game kept their mouths shut.
"What's going on?" I asked quietly to Qiu Bai beside me.
Qiu Bai covered his mouth and whispered: "I told you, there are many people killed and injured in this desperate escape. Not only those injured by falling into the oil pan, but also many people who have not completed the game.
They were slapped with thirty boards on the excuse of "poor physical ability". In the words of King Yama, these boards were to warn them so that they could train themselves more.
So now very few ghosts are willing to participate in that game, after all, they don’t want to get beaten for no reason.”
When I heard this, I thought to myself: It turns out that this game not only has attractive rewards, but also vicious punishments.
The thirty-board cliff was very painful, otherwise it would not have scared all the ghosts into what they are now, and no one would dare to step forward.
Lu Fafa, on the other hand, looked around, grinned, and then walked carelessly towards the center of the venue. Before leaving, she didn't forget to turn back and wink at me to remind me.
I nodded, let Ling Dang sit in his seat, and started walking towards the center of the venue.
Chapter completed!
