Peach Pit Landlord
Chapter 338 Competition
? When a racehorse came from the stables to the racetrack, the audience cheered enthusiastically. After all, those who are qualified to participate in the World Series are all excellent horse racers in all aspects, and naturally have a large number of fans.
Only when the commentator introduced chocolate, the racetrack was silent. No one had ever heard of chocolate before, and certainly no one cheered the horse.
And when the narrator mentioned the jockey of Chocolate, some attentive viewers found that the jockey and the owner of the horse were the same person, which also made many people cry out.
After all, horse races of this level require professional jockeys to increase their speed. Generally speaking, horse owners do not have such skills. And it was the only time in the past ten years that Li Yuan was both a horse owner and a jockey.
Many people also looked at the odds of chocolate, and found that it was already an astonishing one to twelve. This also makes the vast majority of people completely disappointed with chocolate - such high odds can fully explain that chocolate has no possibility of winning the championship.
Only a few of the most adventurous gamblers, who pay small bucks for chocolates, win. They just do it for fun, but they will soon find that this will be the wisest choice in their horse racing career.
As one of the horse owners, Douglas also watched the race in the box. When he saw Li Yuan riding chocolate on the track, he couldn't help laughing.
Douglas also knew horses, and it was obvious at a glance that Chocolate didn't have the perfect body shape for a racehorse. Coupled with the fact that the jockey is still Li Yuan, who is tall and burly, this horse is already a loser in the eyes of insiders.
Douglas took a puff of his cigar and said to the beautiful woman beside him, Hehe, it seems that not only can I win the bonus this time, but I can also win an extra two million from this idiot.
The beauty gave Douglas a wink and said, Honey, I saw a bag yesterday...
I'll buy it after the horse race is over. Douglas waved his hand and said, Let's watch the horse race first!
Honey, you're so kind! The beauty hugged Douglas and kissed her, quietly waiting for the start of the race.
At this time, the riders also rode their horses to the starting line and entered their respective grids. Li Yuan asked Chocolate to stand on the starting line, touched his horse's neck and whispered: Come on, don't let me down.
Living in the peach pit space for a long time, the chocolate has become more and more spiritual. After hearing what the owner said, it let out a low hiss, as if saying that it will definitely work hard.
At this time, the referee issued a prepared password. Li Yuan focused his attention on the front, bent down and lowered his upper body, waiting for the game to start.
As the beep sounded,
The fence in front of Chocolate suddenly opened. It didn't need Li Yuan's urging at all, it rushed out like an arrow off the string.
Hold on, hold on! Li Yuan let go of the rein, and kept reminding Chocolate at the same time.
After all, there will be a long-distance race later, so Li Yuan doesn't want Chocolate to exert all his strength and save some energy.
However, even so, Chocolate still ran ahead of most of the opponents, and was only half a horse away from Black Lightning, who was the most vocal in winning the championship. The two horses were almost neck and neck, and the audience stood up involuntarily.
And Douglas was also full of surprise, muttering to himself involuntarily: No wonder this Chinese dared to bet with me, it turns out that he does have some strength.
But that being said, Douglas isn't worried. Black Lightning's advantage lies in the second half, and it will speed up when it crosses the 600-meter line, and it will definitely leave all opponents far behind.
The world record for a one-kilometer horse race is fifty-seven seconds. For a horse in a race, it is only a blink of an eye to finish the first 600 meters. Black Lightning crossed the 600-meter line first, and its jockey began to urge the horses to speed up.
Chocolate followed closely behind and passed the 600-meter mark. The other participating horses followed closely behind, but it could be seen that they had no strength to run faster, and the champion could only be born between chocolate and black lightning.
Unexpectedly, the chocolate that entered the competition for the first time had such strength, and the audience also stood up to cheer for it. Although the vast majority of people did not buy chocolate to win, seeing the emergence of a dark horse always makes people excited.
Come on, Black Lightning, run! Douglas couldn't sit still at this time, and stood up to cheer for his horse.
And Black Lightning did not disappoint its owner, the final 400-meter sprint was excellent. I saw it running faster and faster, and it was really worthy of the name Black Lightning.
Seeing that the black lightning had passed the 800-meter mark, Douglas finally heaved a sigh of relief. Judging from his previous experience, as long as Black Lightning runs through the 800 meters first, the overall situation is settled, no matter how fast a horse is, it is impossible to pass it in the last 200 meters.
Win! Although Black Lightning hadn't crossed the finish line, Douglas had already celebrated in his heart ahead of time.
However, at this moment, Chocolate, who had been one and a half horses behind Black Lightning, suddenly went into a frenzy. I saw that its speed was suddenly much faster, and under everyone's surprised eyes, it quickly approached the black lightning, and then surpassed it inch by inch.
Bastard, how could this happen! The smile on Douglas's face disappeared immediately, he stood up and shouted loudly: Run, run!
However, no matter how Douglas yelled, Chocolate managed to surpass Black Lightning in the last 30 meters. Then it ran faster and faster, and when it crossed the finish line, it had surpassed Black Lightning by a horse.
Just within the last two hundred meters, Chocolate completed a beautiful counterattack, easily surpassing Black Lightning, who had the highest bid to win the championship!
This... this is impossible! Douglas yelled, and smashed the champagne glass in his hand to the ground. He never thought that this game that was sure to win would actually lose!
At this time, the racetrack was already full of cheers. All the audience gave a standing ovation and congratulated Li Yuan and Chocolate. Everyone loves to watch the dramatic reversal of the unknown, and this Marseille perfectly interprets this process. Although Chocolate won and those who gambled on horses lost a lot, everyone still applauded without hesitation.
Li Yuan rode chocolate around the field to greet the audience, and at the same time patted his beloved horse on the neck and praised it: Nice job!
Chocolate seemed to understand the master's words, raised his head and let out a long hiss, as if expressing his pride in his heart.
At this moment, the notice board at the racetrack read the grade of chocolate. When the spectators saw this result, the audience immediately became excited, and a set of numbers was clearly displayed on the billboard: 55.7 seconds! (To be continued.)
