Ugly human nature

 

The crazy sport of bullfighting can be said to be the most cruel battle for survival in the history of animals. The bullfighter does not care about the life or death of the bull, and only shows off his own force and glory. There are many people in human beings who love to show off their wealth, power, and self-righteous achievements, but there are not many real winners.

Mr. Bridge bought a ferocious bullfighting "Kunlun" from the former famous bullfighter Mr. Philly, and registered the bullfighting "Kunlun" to participate in the bullfight. Mr. Bridge also invited Mr. Feeley to watch the bullfight.

Mr. Bridge and Mr. Feely came to the bullfighting venue together, and Mr. Bridge handed the bullfight "Kunlun" to the organizer of the competition. The organizers of the competition paid Mr. Bridge an honorarium.

Mr. Bridge and Mr. Feeley sat together in the spectator stand. They are waiting for the matador to appear.

Mr. Feeley, who was a bullfighter, told Mr. Bridge: “In the 16th century, matadors generally wore red clothes with gold rims and some gold ornaments on them to make them look shiny when performing movements in the sun. Bright and dazzling. Because people in the 16th century were accustomed to wearing their hair in a bun, all the main matadors wore headdresses. This tradition has been continued, and gradually, the headdresses became a kind of decoration. And the main matadors are in the ring. The only one who wears the headdress, which in turn evolved into a symbol of the matador’s identity.”

Mr. Feeley said: "Bullfighting is an inspirational activity that shows strength and courage. It allows people to cultivate a brave spirit while watching the fierce bullfighting competition. This is a national spirit that leads to the straight ahead. Unfortunately, in 18 In the middle of the century, during the reign of the Bourbon dynasty, the first king Felipe V actually hated this sport and believed that this cruel sport that could easily cause harm to members of the royal family should be banned. Since then, this traditional aristocratic patent has It spread from the imperial palace to the people."

The snowy bullfighting competition that Mr. Bridge and Mr. Feely sat watching together in front of the viewing platform was the first time that it was held by local people. But officials and wealthy businessmen who watched the game were still the main players. Of course, the audience all bet their money, and the bullfighting arena is actually a casino.

The matador's attire continues the tradition. The red cloth and the cloak are two very important tools. The red cloth is the patent of the main matador. In fact, the so-called red cloth has one side red and one side yellow, which is exactly the same color as the Xizhou flag. The three matador assistants hold cloaks. The difference between the cloak and the red cloth is that the red side is replaced by pink. ​

The full set of matador's tools also includes: a spear, six emblems, four different swords and a dagger. In the initial stage of the performance, the main matador usually uses a sharp sword without an elbow and supports it with a red cloth to lure the bull. In the final assassination stage, a short sword with an elbow is used, and the matador stabs it into the bull. Heart on the back. In addition, the main matador is also equipped with a cross-headed sword, which is used to stab the bull's central nervous system.

Mr. Bridge said to Mr. Feeley: This bullfight consists of three matadors fighting six bulls, each with two rounds. Bullfighting performances are all scheduled in the afternoon.

However, the matador has not yet appeared, and Mr. Bridge's bullfighting "Kunlun" has not appeared either. The audience was already excitedly singing the famous "Bullfighting Song". Facing a life-and-death battle between man and beast, what do people expect?

 

In the crazy bullfighting arena,

In the face of war and killing,

At the scene of violence and repression,

There are always many onlookers,

No tears will be shed for the dead,

In fact, this is human nature.

The ugliest and evil side,

Hypocrisy pollutes social justice.
