Liang Chuan has never seen a dogfighter before. He has only seen it in books before, calling the rich dudes as cockfighters and dogfighters. Looking at these fanatical ethnic minority brothers, few of them are dignitaries. Likewise, Obsessed with this event!
As night falls in Malipo, the central venue becomes the protagonist. The three circles inside and outside are all filled with people.
The two dogs were very fierce, one was a black dog and the other was a yellow dog. They were both larger than ordinary domestic dogs. They bared their teeth and let out a dull growl from their mouths.
Seeing the black dog, some extremely unfamiliar pictures suddenly appeared in Liang Chuan's mind!
In these scenes, there is an earthen house, an old dog basking in the sun in the yard, and a young man smiling innocently at him.
He tried hard to recall, but then there was a blank again, and the memory seemed to be fragmented, cut into pieces.
Who is this young man who suddenly appears in my mind? It is not the person in my previous life memory at all, because this person is wearing a standard Hanfu, linen clothes and linen trousers, with patches everywhere, and has long waterfall hair that makes women envious. Fa, the standard appearance of an ancient person, but I just can’t remember it at all. Who is this person?
In a moment of confusion, the fight on the field began.
The black dog suddenly pounced on the yellow dog, and its sharp teeth rushed down the neck. The yellow dog jumped up to avoid it, grabbed it with its front paws, slapped the black dog away with one paw, then turned around and opened its mouth, aiming at He bit the dog on its back!
After the bite, the two dogs immediately rolled on the ground. The black dog was in pain, but had a chance to get close, so he decisively stared at the yellow dog's neck and bullied it with his mouth!
The yellow dog knew the bite was serious, so he decisively let go of his mouth and jumped back. The two dogs distanced themselves. In a blink of an eye, the black dog was at a disadvantage!
The game is getting more and more intense, and some bank dealers are shouting loudly: "Hurry up and place your bets!"
Not long after, the table in front of the banker was filled with copper coins, divided into two piles, and piled up like a hill.
After the bets were placed, the two dogs carried a heavier mission. People shouted at the top of their lungs to cheer for the dogs they had placed bets on. The sounds on the field were heard far away in the Xiushan behind them, and the echoes came back again. The scene was quite What a spectacle!
Damn, you said this damn place is poor, look at how rich the people here are, making money is like begging, spending money is like running water, and just throw this wasted money to the dog farm without blinking an eye! This money is really easy to make. It would be great if I could have such a place to go!
The world in the distance was dark, with only the fire in front of me. Everyone was concentrated in this small world. It was very lively. The atmosphere gradually heated up with the fierce fighting on the field, and the atmosphere in Malipo became even more exciting!
Liang Chuan was somewhat infected by this atmosphere.
What is a festival for the common people? When they face the loess and turn their backs to the sky every day, and their busy work never stops all year round, fortunately they give themselves a holiday. At this time in this place, they can relax and roar to their heart's content.
Liang Chuan once heard a saying before that the Chinese New Year is the only festival that belongs to the common people. It is what everyone is looking forward to. Only on the Chinese New Year day can we put down the hard work of the year, review our achievements in the past year, and start anew. Having new expectations for the new year will prevent people from giving up on themselves.
The big gathering in Malipo is just like the Chinese New Year.
Liang Chuan was not interested in gambling. When he saw it was two dogs fighting and the fight was covered in blood, little Ah Yue immediately lost interest. She twisted Liang Chuan's ears left and right, signaling Liang Chuan to leave this noisy place quickly!
"Let's go quickly!"
"Yeah, it doesn't look good. Let's go see what's delicious!"
The two of them walked down the slope, away from the dog farm. The rest was the night market, which would be held until the sun rose, and then turned into a morning market, which would last for three days until the end of the Malipo Fair.
God knows how these people could be so energetic and survive for three days.
But the excitement is real. Who would have imagined that there would be such a big event in such a corner of the horizon. As for other places in the Song Dynasty, the scale of the folk rush would definitely be larger than here. In such an era, it is indeed not possible. No matter how strong it is.
There were many fruits and vegetables on the stalls on both sides that Liang Chuan had never seen before. The mid-summer season is the time when the products on the mountain are most abundant, because in autumn, the climate at high altitudes in Dali gets colder earlier than in other areas, which means that the cold will come earlier, and the harvest is usually in the summer.
There were raspberries, tamarinds, goat's milk fruits, snow peaches, and sweet persimmons that I had never seen in my hometown. They looked very fresh, so Liang Chuan picked them as well. Quite a few, a bag full for Ah Yue.
Wild fruits are a natural snack these days. Apart from this teething festival, children can hardly eat other delicacies!
Liang Chuan didn't dare to let the little girl eat it directly, so he found a place, spent money to buy some water, and asked Ah Yue to wash the fruits by herself!
Ah Yue didn't know why it was so troublesome, but after following Liang Chuan, the water he drank and the food he ate were either cooked or cleaned, and his stomachaches were not as frequent as before!
Suddenly Liang Chuan unexpectedly discovered something incredible!
There was a hawker carrying two baskets of eggs. He thought they were ordinary eggs such as salted duck eggs, but when Liang Chuan took a closer look, he realized that the eggs turned out to be preserved eggs!
Liang Chuan picked up the preserved egg in the bamboo basket. Yes, if I remember correctly, this thing should be called preserved egg!
The Great Song Dynasty could still eat preserved eggs!
Did I remember it wrong again?
My own historical memory is confused again! ,
No, it’s definitely not that my memory is confused, but that there really is a time traveler!
When he saw cigarettes for the first time, Liang Chuan felt strange, how could there be cigarettes in this era!
Now I even saw preserved eggs! These things all existed in history, but they were definitely not in the Song Dynasty!
Liang Chuan's heart skipped a beat, as a chain of things touched his nerves!
The vendor didn't know which ethnic group he belonged to, but it didn't matter. He was just a businessman at this time. He watched Liang Chuan looking at the egg in a daze, and immediately introduced him diligently: "This is a sacred bird egg brought from the Song Dynasty. According to legend, They are fairy eggs laid by the phoenix on the Nine Heavens Sacred Tree. Eating one can extend your life by one year!"
Ah Yue was stunned for a moment after being deceived, and immediately asked: "Does that mean that if you eat all the eggs in this basket, you can live a long life?"
It’s true according to what the hawker says!
But the hawker himself didn't believe it. If this thing could prolong life, would ordinary people be able to enjoy this blessing? This was not a wishful dream. What made him disbelief the most was that this egg had nothing to do with gods. This egg cost dozens of pennies each, and that one would extend his life forever! A stick of ginseng is more than this price!
Xiao Ayue's words obviously meant to ruin the situation. Liang Chuan also saw the hawker's arrogance showing on his face. He was about to fall out due to his previous attentiveness, and immediately smoothed things over: "You know what the kid is talking about?" Magic bird eggs, no matter how good the food is, eating too much will have side effects. We are short-lived. If we can eat a few to extend our life by a few years, it is God’s grace. How can we expect to live for a hundred years?”
Liang Chuan took out a bunch of money from his pocket and asked, "How can I sell these magical bird eggs?"
"An egg costs fifty cents!"
Ah Yue said anxiously: "It's too expensive, more expensive than meat!"
Liang Chuan smiled. He might believe in some kind of magical bird egg, but it was definitely not this magical bird egg worth fifty cents. What kind of magical bird egg was this? It is simply an insult to the divine bird!
"Two of them!"
The vendor quickly handed over two preserved eggs.
Liang Chuan touched his forehead lightly, and then slowly peeled off the hard shell, revealing the black egg kernel inside. Liang Chuan smiled to himself: Damn, it's really a preserved egg.
He took a bite, and the familiar taste rolled on his tongue. He only took one bite and threw away most of the remaining egg. What a bullshit bird. Egg. .
But an egg can be sold for fifty cents each, which is really a money grab. He also knows how to make preserved eggs, and one day he will also make some magical bird eggs to fool others!
Definitely a good business!
This can be discussed from time to time!
"Dad, why don't you eat it? Isn't it delicious? It would be a waste to throw it away. One of them costs so much!"
Ah Yue peeled the egg open by herself, and the weird taste in her mouth almost made her spit it out. She looked at Liang Chuan with a complaining look on her face: "Dad, you are so bad, you don't even say that this egg tastes so bad!"
"Aren't you afraid of waste? If I told you, you would also throw away the eggs like me!"
The two looked at each other and laughed. Ah Yue's teeth were all stained with preserved eggs, which made her look terrible.
The two of them were walking slowly, and suddenly they heard the sound of fighting again!
Ah Yue was riding on Liang Chuan's neck, her legs swinging rapidly, urging Liang Chuan: "Dad, let's go quickly, there's another fight over there!"
Liang Chuan just glanced at it and immediately recognized that among the crowd, the group of people squatting on the ground and being beaten were the group of Bai people he brought, the descendants of Baijia Village!
A group of about a dozen people, using their fists and kicks together, greeted the Bai family members who were surrounded in a circle like raindrops. These people were like lambs and could only endure the heavy rain of punches and kicks. These sissies were still Some people cried loudly, crying loudly.
Fighting is not prohibited in Malipo, and even in the southwest border, fighting is very common!
Because the government doesn't have that much energy, they can't mediate those fights and troubles every day. If they kill each one, they will be counted as one, and if they die, they will be pulled down!
The basic principle here is that the weak eat the strong!
Although Liang Chuan didn't know who these people were and why they were beating up the Bai family, he felt a sense of pleasure in his heart when he saw these sissies being beaten to the point of crying. He hadn't felt so relieved for a long time. If it hadn't been for Bai Bao He couldn't explain it, so he wanted to go up and help!

Liang Chuan only saw one person in the crowd holding his head tightly, trying to avoid injury. He took a closer look and found that it was the young man Bai Dai!
