There is nothing unusual in the afternoon riding and archery textbooks, Mr. set up a competition as usual, but this time the color head is special, it is a colorful parrot, which is a novelty, so some people who boast good archery skills have raised their bows and arrows, the academy is boring, and it is not bad to have a starling to play.

Xin Xiran also brought his own bow and arrows, found Gongyu Bei, stepped forward and said with a smile: "I am relieved to see Brother Gongyu in his chest." ”

Gong Yubei carefully wiped his bow and arrows, "Since I promised Brother Xi Ran, I will do what I say." ”

"Brother Gongyu, I can naturally trust it. Xin Xiran smiled.

The two chatted again, and it was not until the gentleman called for a gathering that everyone stood in line with bows and arrows.

"Those who practice virtue are not shot, so the holy king is in charge. The gentleman has nothing to fight, there must be, shoot. Let it go up, go down and drink, and its contention is also a gentleman. You are classmates, first courteous and then fighting, fighting and then respecting, only for the gentleman. Don't hurt your classmates because of a small competition, and don't hurt anyone. ”

Mr. was still babbling on the precautions, but Xin Xiran sneered: "These saints like to engage in this Laoshzi face-saving work, and they want us to be polite, why bother to set up a lottery for us to compete for, this is not a contradiction." ”

"Archery is one of the weekly rites, and what is valued here is the virtue and cultivation of the shooter. Qiu Zhan explained coldly behind Xin Xiran.

Xin Xiran shrunk his neck, turned his head and rolled his eyes: "I think it's just a blind toss, and it also requires to cooperate with the rhythm, what is taught in this way is just a show, and the enemy on the battlefield will not be polite to you." ”

This ----- different circumstances, so naturally it is not the same. Qiu Zhan laughed.

Gong Yubei looked back at Luo Meng, but didn't see the latter holding a bow and arrow, and said strangely: "Brother Luo doesn't plan to compare?"

Luo Mengxiao shook his head: "I'm not good at archery, so it's better not to be boring." ”

Gong Yubei smiled and said to Xin Xiran: "I probably know what level the people in this are here, but only two people don't know the details, one of them is Brother Yan, I see, I can't say that he is the most powerful among us." ”

"Young Master Gongyu, don't make fun of me. Yang Meng smiled bitterly: "I can only do some fist and foot kung fu, and archery skills are really not worth mentioning." ”

The crowd began to disperse, and at this point, several people pulled away from each other, and finally the contestants formed a large circle, and countless arrow targets were placed in the center messily, and the music gradually sounded on the field, but someone was playing the piano on the high platform.

This competition, as Qiu Zhan said, is an archery salute, which is both a competition and a ceremonial friend, and all the disciples must step on the point of the rhythm to shoot the arrow, and the moving body, the posture of the archery, and even the pace of walking are counted in the judgment.

Those who move with the rhythm of the music, the body is free and elegant, the least moving pace, and the most targets are the winners.

The music sounded at first, slow and long, no one moved, after a while, the rhythm was raised in vain, the speed accelerated, it was the best time, for a while, most of the disciples began to act, stepping on the rhythm to move closer to the middle, aiming at the target of the arrow, and then seeing that the arrow was about to hit the target, but was intercepted by another arrow.

Arrows flew around on the field, some people were afraid of being injured, so they quit stupidly, and some people repeatedly missed, and they had to get off the field.

The slow rhythm is not suitable for movement, and everyone waits for the rapid rhythm to sound again, but while waiting, they see the two of them stepping on the slow rhythm point and starting to move.

Qiu Ji followed the rhythm of the music to bend the bow and set up the arrow, and with a whoosh, the arrow shot at the target like a broken bamboo.

And at the moment when it was about to be shot, another arrow came from the side, hitting the previous arrow, and immediately the arrow was cut in two, and then the one was also swished into the ground, and the tail of the arrow shook frequently, and the dry and cracked ground surface was even shaken out of a crack.

Gong Yubei looked at Qiu Ji with a smile and apologized: "Young Master Qiu, don't blame, I am entrusted by others, I will get this bird today, and if I offend, I will go to apologize when I am offended." ”

Qiu Ji turned a deaf ear, still leisurely bent the bow and shot arrows, the movements were smooth and smooth, it was not only an arrow dance, but it was also sharp, elegant and pleasing to the eye.

This is the first time Qiu Ji has come back to show it in front of everyone, although the rumors say that he is superb, but in the eyes of most people, if he does not have the title of the son of the first assistant, he Qiu Ji is just an ordinary person.

Even in the crusade against the rebels in Mu'anshan, many people are skeptical, who knows if he Qiu Ji will only hide behind as a shrinking turtle on the battlefield.

Now, when Qiu Ji finally made a move, everyone had the mentality of watching a good show, whether it was a donkey or a horse, and they would soon be able to see the difference.

As soon as Qiu Ji moved, Gong Yubei naturally followed, but the rules of the competition could cut off other people's archery, so no one said anything.

Qiu Ji fired three arrows in a row, all of which were cut off by Gong Yu Bei, the people outside the field were anxious, but the two people on the field were still calm, Gong Yu Bei smiled and apologized to Qiu Ji, but the latter didn't look at it, pulled out three arrows from the quiver, and put them on the bow together.

"I want to shoot three arrows in a salvo, but don't swallow the fat man in one bite. ”

"But no, Gong Yu North is the arrow king of the book club, his archery skills are undoubted, I think this color must be Gong Yu Bei's. ”

"Maybe, since you dare to draw a bow and arrows, you may really have some ability. ”

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, Xin Xi looked at the two people on the field for a long time, and said proudly: "Look at these two, no matter who wins or loses, I am happy." ”

Qiu Zhan was also very curious, "Since you have known Qiu Ji since childhood, who is more powerful between him and Gongyu Bei?"

"Just because you knew you when you were a child doesn't mean you still know you now. Xin Xiran smacked his lips angrily.

In fact, he didn't know which of the two was better, so he was curious.

Over there, Qiu Ji had already drawn his bow, and the three arrows were aimed at three different directions. Gong Yubei sneered in his heart, it seems that someone is out of line, he wants to be opportunistic, just three arrows at once, but it is not difficult for him, so he also took out three arrows and aimed.

What he has to do today is not only to win the jackpot, but also to suppress Qiu Ji's momentum, Gong Yu's family has been a general for generations, and the current head of the Changfang family, Gong Yusha, is a general second only to Tai Lieutenant, if you talk about status, his Gong Yu North is not much lower than Qiu Ji.

But in today's court, there is Qiu Wanao in the text, and Xin Zhongqiao in the martial arts, under the strength of these two people, the other courtiers are a little unworthy of their names, take the Gongyu family as an example, although they are generals, the military power is concentrated in the hands of the Taiwei, and they are restrained everywhere.

Gong Yubei can't stand this nest in his heart, he is clearly the pride of the sky, even though he has endless glory and wealth, but he can't get the dignity he deserves, but he was asked by his old man to please Xin Xidye that waste, how can he be willing.

From the first day of entering the academy, Qiu Ji and Xin Xiran are the hottest characters, with strength alone, he can do everything in Gongyu Beiwen Taowu, but because of the current situation in the imperial court, he has lost the honor he should have, how can he not hate.

Qiu Ji aimed at the three targets, the strings were already tight, I saw him concentrate, swishing three sharp arrows out, followed by three arrows in the other direction also shot out, the six arrows were all ruthless, after colliding in the air, each deviated from the original route, and finally settled on the ground.

There was an uproar in the audience, these two people were of equal strength, and no one was hit, but at that moment, a silver light broke through.
