There are three entrances here. In addition to entering from the antique street, there is also a tourist entrance at the diagonal. It is mainly provided for people who drive here by car. It is also the parking lot of this small attraction.
In addition to these two tourist entrances, there is also a relatively tall gate that will probably not touch the head of a small truck entering.
Chen Xing and the others came in through this door.
It can be said that this is the entrance for employees, but it is also the entrance for bullfighting.
Before the competition started, the cattle were brought in early. This should be under the stepped seats. The space is quite large. You can see some particularly strong cattle being kept in a stall alone.
The one Chen Xing saw was about to be led in.
Bullfighting has the word "fight" in it, but this bull does not look aggressive now. Its shoulder height is about one meter three to four meters, and the outline of its muscles is hidden under some fat, but it is still clearly visible.
This cow, especially the muscles around its butt and thighs, looks very powerful.
One person was feeding it with grass, while someone else spray-painted it.
'Liangdu Youth'
Is this cow from Liangdu?
He just came from Liangdu in the morning, and he didn't expect that one of the cows competing today came from the same place as him.
The old man took Chen Xing around here in a big circle, and Chen Xing also looked around. In ancient times, this kind of place was definitely a business secret in the arena. The staff were busy here, preparing for a while. bullfighting match.
There is a lot of space here, but maybe because it is winter, there is no smell.
If it is summer, when the southwest is very hot, there should be some peculiar smell in this place. After all, there are such big cows inside, and it seems that the ventilation conditions are not that good.
After finally passing through a door, light poured in. Chen Xing's eyes took two seconds, and then he saw himself appearing in the bullfighting venue.
Lively sounds came from all directions.
There were about thirty people in this circular competition venue. They didn't wear the same uniforms. They were very casual. They shouted some slogans and seemed very passionate. Looking behind me, there are people standing or sitting on the stairs in various shapes, row upon row, wearing all kinds of clothes.
Chen Xing has never applied the word row upon row to people. This word means to be arranged in an orderly manner like fish scales and comb teeth. It is generally used to describe houses. For example, the Miao village is a perfect interpretation of this word.
But now it seems that Chen Xing can only find row after row to describe them.
It's almost three o'clock, and there are about four to five thousand people here to watch the game.
The local young men and beauties have returned from working. There are too few things to do at home, and they can’t find any good entertainment methods. After all, this place is far away from the big cities, such as bars, libraries, and art galleries in Chengdu. , cinemas and the like, nothing like that.
So coming here to watch bullfighting for free when you have nothing to do can be regarded as enriching spiritual civilization.
The most important thing is that it is free. For the locals, they only have to pay a little for travel expenses and food expenses for eating out. They are still happy to pay this money.
The proportion of tourists among them is about four to one, so there are few people, but because of this, it is easy to be emotionally affected by the locals.
Fighting is originally an ancient word spread.
The Han people have accepted Confucian culture since childhood, and usually value peace. However, this has also been the case in the past few thousand years. Going further back, people at that time could be said to be fighting against the sky, the earth, and wild beasts. The battle was constant. Emotions in human genes.
Therefore, before the official start of the game, there were already cheers in the stands.
The old man said to Chen Xing:
"Buffalos generally don't hurt people. If one side is defeated and wants to run away, just be careful not to block their way. It's very safe. But if you don't want to be here, there is a ladder over there. You can get there. Go up to the auditorium and watch.”
"Then I'll be right here. Thank you, uncle."
"no big deal."
He happily smoked a cigarette and looked at the young men shouting slogans.
Once upon a time, he was so young.
It’s just that the venue at that time was not so modern. The bullfighting venues a few decades ago only had dirt floors, which were extremely uneven, and the walls were made of stone, which looked unstable. At that time, many people died because of bullfighting. .
There were a lot of people in the middle venue, and there were only about a dozen people who really belonged to one side of the bullfight. The rest were all spectators like Chen Xing.
The people in the auditorium didn't know it, and thought they were filled with relatives and friends of both sides.
Chen Xing checked the camera and increased the shutter speed.
When the camera is shooting moving objects, it needs a higher shutter speed to capture clear moving content.
For example, when a boxer punches in a boxing match, the shutter speed must be set above 1/250 second. Otherwise, even the other person’s fist-pumping hand will be blurred, which is equivalent to taking a useless picture. This also has to take into account the strong sense of dynamics and speed brought by the slow door, and cannot be turned up blindly.
Therefore, mastering this degree is a very profound skill for a photographer.
In a competitive sport, there is usually only one decisive scene, and there is no second chance for you to make a mistake.
The audience also quickly noticed Chen Xing in the bullring. After all, while others were taking pictures casually, Chen Xing adjusted the camera and found a position to take pictures of the door where the bull came out. His movements were very professional.
Or maybe it was the handsomeness of standing upright that attracted them. In short, even before the protagonist appeared, Chen Xing still attracted a lot of attention here.
After a few minutes, the protagonist appears.
The one who came up first was not the 'Liangdu Youth' that Chen Xing saw before, but a cow with 'Zhangjiazhai' written on it. This cow was also all black, with two big horns that were curved, sharp and big. Look. It's very difficult to mess with.
Chen Xing took some photos and was slightly worried about the cow named 'Liangdu Youth'.
Liangdu is the city that Chen Xing went to when he first came to Guizhou. He stayed there for two days and took a set of photos that can be regarded as his works. There is still some emotion in his heart.
However, the second person who appeared was not the 'Liangdu Youth' but a cow called 'Yinong Company'.
Judging from the body shape, they are all about the same size.
The audience and people inside the venue cheered, applauded, and shouted, as if they were cheering for the players they supported. The two cows didn't know what happened. As soon as they saw each other, they immediately took an attack posture.
A commentary voice came from the loudspeaker.
"This is the third week of the game in the Ancient Thirty-Six Village. It is currently pitted between the Bull King of Zhangjiazhai and the Bull King of Yinong Company. Here we see that the two Bull Kings have discovered each other. Let's take a look. Who will win this round of competition..."
It was a little late, but it was so fast. As soon as the two cows met, they seemed to be facing the enemy who killed their father, or they had the hatred to take away their wives. For a moment, sparks hit the earth, and they ran towards the opposite side with their heads lowered.
The person who had been holding the cow also let go.
Chen Xing was close, only a few meters away from them. When the two cows ran, it seemed as if the ground was shaking. Then a loud clang was heard. The horns of the two cows came into contact, and then they pushed forward at the same time, trying to push against each other. Turn over the cow on the opposite side.
Damn it!
Chen Xing shouted in his heart.
So exciting?
