Chapter 99: The Tricks of Fighting Grass
This yard is very big, and there is a wall next to the house. If you walk a few steps, you will find another small yard.
At this moment, Hou Cheng and others were sticking their butts out, looking for something in the grass nearby.
It can be seen that they are very scared.
And after counting carefully, there were only three people. One of them was the man in the hat. The other person was also looking for something. When he heard Liu Mao's voice, he looked up, and then his eyes lit up. Wait. When he saw Luo Xi and others coming over, he immediately made a gesture.
Ask them to look to the other side.
Luo Xi noticed the other party, and then found the guidance of the other party's fingers, so he turned around and looked.
Just under the eaves over there, there was a figure sitting.
Besides, there is another person.
It was the woman named Wang Tingting who was in Hou Cheng's team.
But at this moment, the other party looked very strange.
Wang Tingting was kneeling on the ground at this time, with a weird smile on her face. Then she reached out and grabbed the stones in a bamboo basket on the ground, stuffed them into her mouth, chewed them a few times and swallowed them. She grabbed another one and put it in her mouth and chewed it a few times
You could see that there was blood in her mouth and all her teeth had fallen out.
Chewing stones, no matter how hard your teeth are, cannot hold them.
Beside her, there was already a person lying down, Han Pengyu.
But at this moment, there was no sound at all, and he could no longer die. His exposed skin was pale and bloodless, and the veins on his neck and face were bulging, his eyes were protruding, his belly was bulging, and his death was miserable. His mouth was also filled with blood. All the teeth fell out.
As for the other figure, he is an old man sitting with his back to everyone.
However, the opponent's body was filled with gloomy energy and black energy.
Suddenly the old man spoke: "Is there someone coming again? Okay, as the saying goes, the spring of grass fighting is still young, and the green leaves and red flowers are fighting for their beauty. Carefully pinch the flower branches to compete for victory, and lightly pick the grass leaves to judge the short and long. Now that you are here, go find some grass stalks and fight me for grass. Look for it carefully. If you lose, you will have to eat stones."
The old man said in a dark voice.
Luo Xi glanced at Brother Mao, who knew what Luo Xi meant and nodded to him with a serious expression.
Mao Ge is certified.
There is no doubt that the old man is a ‘fierce ghost’.
Is this considered a self-inflicted trap?
When I came here before, I just couldn’t find the exit and left. Why did I have to run here?
So is it too late to run now?
Luo Xi looked at Hou Cheng, Chu Xu and the hat man who were looking for grass seriously, and knew that it was too late.
If they could run, they would have run away long ago.
Moreover, Han Pengyu, who is dead over there, and Wang Lingling, who is eating stones and is unconscious, are living examples of the consequences of being punished after failing to fight grass.
The scene is weird, but there is nothing we can do about it. We have come here and we still can’t run away.
Again, just looking at Hou Cheng and the others, they knew they couldn't run away.
Many people have played fighting grass when they were young. They just find stems and leaves of some plants, such as small leaf stems, and then grab the two ends and cross them with the opponent's leaf stems. Pull on your own leaf stem, and whoever's stem breaks loses, and whoever doesn't break is the winner.
Very simple.
Luo Xi remembers that he played with it when he was a child, and enjoyed it for a while. After finding a very powerful leaf stem, he would save it. Sometimes, he would also give the leaf stem a name like "Yum" Names like "General" or "Invincible King".
At this time Luo Xi gave Wu Rui and the others a wink. They were responsible for looking at the scholar, then squatted down and pretended to look for the leaf stems, while Luo Xi moved closer to Hou Cheng.
"What's going on?"
"Brother, don't mention it!" Hou Cheng said with a sad face: "I was fooled by this place. This ten-person haunted house escape is completely different from the previous version. , Zhang Lin died in the mourning hall. After the few of us escaped, we didn’t know how to go. By accident, Zhou Fang also died. Just now Han Pengyu was fighting grass If you lose, you will eat a bunch of rocks and die alive. Wang Tingting is probably going to die."
"Can't you run away?"
"Wang Tingting actually wanted to run away, but somehow, she couldn't run away. It's like a ghost, and if you lose your mind, you will die if you run away."
"Then, you can't win the fight with grass?"
"It's a bit difficult. Han Pengyu tried several and lost all of them. If he lost once, he would eat a handful of stones. When he ate the fourth handful, he collapsed." "Have you ever tried to flip the table?"
"No, how about you come, brother?" Hou Cheng picked up a leaf at this time and looked at the stem carefully, as if he had found a treasure.
Luo Xi shook his head. At this time, he looked at Han Pengyu, who was already cold on the ground over there, and thought that this man was also a ruthless person. A normal person could not even swallow a stone, but the other person could actually eat it. By the fourth time, it was amazing.
In other words, Han Pengyu has competed with that 'grass fighting ghost' at least four times.
Lost four times?
Baicao Dou, also known as Dou Baicao, is a popular game among Chinese folk and belongs to the Dragon Boat Festival folk custom. Its original origin is nowhere to be found. "Nian Hua Ji Li" writes, "Dragon Boat Festival knots the house to store medicine, fights with hundreds of grasses, and wraps five threads." The rules can be summarized as testing the toughness of the grass stems by intersecting the grass stems. To tie a knot, the two people each hold their own ends and pull back. The one who breaks the knot is the loser, and the one who breaks it wins.
And generally, the winner will not change the grass stem.
After losing four times in a row, is it because the grass stalks in the hands of the 'grass fighting ghost' are really tough, or is Han Pengyu just too unlucky, or is the grass fighting ghost cheating?
Luo Xi shook his head?
If it is cheating, it is not allowed according to the rules of the level scene.
That is equivalent to cutting off the possibility of the memory collector winning.
So the possibility of cheating is extremely small.
But if it is just a fair competition, no matter how tough the grass stem is, it will not last long.
Of course, putting aside the possibility of cheating, if you want to win in grass fighting, choosing the type of grass stem is the key.
Generally speaking, common grasses on the roadside are used, such as foxtail grass. But in fact, based on the winning probability statistics, the highest winning rate is cowgrass. Its leaves are similar to foxtail grass, and they are all long and slender. , the inflorescence is not in the shape of a fluffy brush, but has the shape of four branches and ridges. Goosegrass is also known as "cricket grass" among the people.
Luo Xi looked at the surrounding grass, and it can be said that there are various types of grass. There are various plants and trees, including cowgrass.
Took a handful and selected the tough and thick one.
"What kind of grass stalks did that ghost use?" Luo Xi asked at this time. Hou Cheng was stunned and shook his head: "I didn't pay attention, but every time when we fight with grass, that ghost always steals from the grass on the spot. I pulled a stick out of the grass next to me and compared it. I feel like it's not cheating, but I can't tell for sure. We don't dare to get too close. You don't know, that ghost has no front at all."
"There's no front. ?”
"Yes, no matter from which angle you look at it, it has its back to us. When fighting weeds, it stretches out its hands. It looks weird and scary."
Luo Xi was thinking at this time. Already have a plan.
He looked at the location of the ghost over there, and there was indeed grass around it. Because the light was relatively dim, the grass here looked pretty much the same.
But in fact, it is still different.
“That’s it!”
Luo Xi could already rule out the possibility of the other party cheating. However, although he did not cheat, he was still playing tricks.
There are many types of grass and trees here, and fighting grass is compared with the toughness of grass stems. Different types of grass have different natural toughness. If their toughness is regarded as 'data', then It's very easy to understand.
The one with a high tenacity value will naturally have a greater chance of winning.
The vegetation here can basically be divided into common green-leaf grasses, foxtail grass, cowgrass, red wood sorrel, etc. Naturally, even if these grasses and trees look alike, their toughness is different. If you are not familiar with these plants and trees, you will definitely not be able to tell who is who, especially if they grow together, there is me among you, and you among me, it is even more difficult to tell them clearly.
But Luo Xi could recognize it.
And what grows around the ghost sitting cross-legged is different from what grows in other places.
Plantain.
Grass stems are probably the toughest among these types of grass.
"You guys, what are you doing here and there? Haven't you chosen yet? If you delay any longer, you will still be punished. As for the new ones, hey, you still have some time, slowly. Take your pick, don't be in a hurry." At this time, the 'grass fighting ghost' over there said, with a hint of pride and provocation in his tone.
Hou Cheng, Chu Xu and the hooded man were all a little anxious at this time.
If you go up to compete, there is almost no possibility of winning, but if you don't go, you will still be punished, run away, and die even worse.
No matter what you do, this is a doomed situation.
While he was struggling, Luo Xi came over at this time, suddenly pulled Chu Xu up, and walked towards the Grass Fighting Ghost amidst the confusion and horror of the other party.
