120. God of Arrows
As the people of the Tianchao Dynasty who like to watch the excitement and love to gather and carnival, when encountering a big festival like the Dragon Boat Festival, they generally refuse to stop without making an all-night festival, so when the dust settles on the military dragon boat race, the audience is still unsatisfied, so there will be some programs on the lake to help the aftertaste, such as a game to win the championship, which is divided into fish standard, duck standard, Iron standard and so on, the wives rowed the dragon boat to fight, the onlookers on the boat or on the shore there are people to bid in the lake, the person who grabbed the bid is the winner, and even the wreaper jumps directly into the lake to rob, there are people who throw ducks into the lake, throw earthen bottles, throw piglets, the most difficult to grab is money and ducks, money is easy to sink to the bottom, and ducks fly and swim around as soon as they get out of the water, this time it depends on the swimming skills of the whims, from the boat to the water, fighting wits and courage to fight fiercely, until the waves are boiling.
The finale program is to shoot the horn millet, that is, to shoot the zongzi, the zongzi is a small rice dumpling, with a string of threads hung high on the bow of the boat, choose volunteers to make the bow and arrow shoot it on another boat far away, because the dough zongzi is both slippery and small, the difficulty of shooting is already very high, and the other is not allowed to scatter the zongzi rotten, only one arrow through the heart, the requirements for the mastery of power are even more demanding, so the archery is not high or people who are not confident in their own archery, they dare not sign up indiscriminately for a while, and those who sign up and win will be awarded the first archery master of the current dynasty - A chance for someone known as the "God of Arrows" to take on a challenge.
It is said that this arrow god does not compare arrows with others, so this opportunity is very rare.
"Xiao Qi, you go, you go, you try!" Wu Yue instigated Yan Qi.
"No, I think the people who signed up are all soldiers," Yan Qi looked at the boat carrying the applicants in the distance, "all of them have big shoulders and round waists." ”
"You're no worse than them. Cui Xuan said.
“……”
"The case of the Piercing of the Shell of the Shell of the Sword, the case of the Defeat of the Sword,
"The first one will bite you!" Cui Xuan glared at his younger brother, holding the coquettish fan that had been cut in half by him.
"Calm, why is it too anxious to fry each other. Yan Qi persuaded.
"The second one will bite you!" Cui Xuan said.
"Oh, Xiao Qi, look at you, it's slow, the registration is closed!" Wu Yue paused regretfully.
There are a lot of fans who want to have close contact with the arrow god of the world, and they can't always think about it, so it is estimated that it will not be finished than going to June, so the registration is limited to one stick of incense time, and the registration deadline is after a stick of incense, and the master who has not reported it can only regret to watch.
Thirty or forty of the men who had been named in the report were counted, and they all boarded the boat used for archery, which was a two-story painting boat, and stood on the top of the boat when it shot horns, aiming at the horns on the other boat from a distance.
Thirty or forty people lined up in order, one by one to shoot up next to each other, in fact, it was also carried out quickly, one person went up and only shot one arrow, according to the requirements of the shot to stay, did not meet the requirements and did not shoot the elimination, left to continue than the second round, just round by round to brush down, until the final winner remained.
"Why are there three girls?" Wu Yue found three slender women in the middle of a group of big men on the boat, "Wait......! Xie Fei! It's actually Xie Fei!"
It's normal, with that girl's personality, with such a rare opportunity, she must want to challenge a higher mountain. In addition to her, isn't there Cheng Baini, and the third one, what is called Qin.
"Qin Zhiyu. Cui Xi said.
Three flower-like girls mixed into a group of men to challenge the world's arrow god, this gimmick made all the spectators on the shore of the lake excited, and the noisy discussion became louder and louder, and finally it simply became a coax: "Old men all go down! Let the girl get on!
A group of gentlemen on the top of the boat couldn't help but look at each other: Do you think we should have a good comparison, or should we carry forward the spirit of a gentleman, grit our back molars, and give this rare opportunity to this girl?! It's so tangled! That's the arrow god of the world, hey! Rare species, rare phenomenon! Who doesn't want to try to defeat it, and take advantage of this to become popular and famous all over the world? What kind of fun do you think you girls are making up with it?!
Later, everyone decided to compete with the female comrades in a fair and open manner, after all, beautiful women are easy to meet and arrows are hard to see, and these young and bloody people still prefer to challenge heroes rather than chasing beauties.
Everyone spontaneously lined up, and shot horns at the top of the boat in turn, because the registration was not selected according to the results but according to the order of registration, so the skills of these people were uneven, needless to say, the shooting was not bad, and some did not even shoot enough distance, and one was too nervous in front of everyone, and with a shake of his hand, he actually shot the arrow to his feet, which caused a roar of laughter on the shore of the lake.
The audience's eyes were more focused on the three girls, after the first round of the competition, everyone found that the three girls really didn't deliberately run to make trouble, the hand holding the bow was actually more stable than one another, and the arrows that shot were more accurate than one another, and when it came to the second round, everyone began to pay attention to these three girls, and they didn't think that the archery skills of these three people were no worse than men!
"Xie Fei, come on!" Wu Yue supported his idol as always, and tried to spread the cheers no matter how far away he was, and after shouting twice, he turned his head and asked Yan Qi, "Do you think who of them can win?"
"It's hard to say," Yan Qi also looked at it very seriously, "Xie Fei's archery skills are not worse than Cheng Baini, but there are too many variables in the riding and archery competition, compared to Cheng Baini's calmness, Xie Feixun is a little anxious at this point, and like now, just standing there and shooting a static target, who is higher and who is lower of the two people, can only see whose concentration is stronger, and can ensure that there is no mistake in the stalemate." Qin Zhiyu's words, her advantage is that she has practiced internal strength, and she can grasp the power of arrows more finely, as long as she can endure the temperament, these three people will be entangled for a long time, until someone is distracted or tired due to fatigue or other things. ”
"If you're up there, are you sure you'll win?" Wu Yue asked relentlessly.
"The simpler the rules, the harder they are to compare, I'm not sure. "Yan Qidao.
As he spoke, five or six rounds of competition had passed on the boat over there, and there were fewer and fewer people left, but the three girls were still on the boat to continue the competition. It's not that the soldiers of the Heavenly Dynasty can't even compare with the three little girls, but the ship where the soldiers of the Divine Arrow Battalion are located is too far away from here, and the registration is closed before they have time, and most of the people who can register are the closest people to the registration location, some of them are for fun, some of them are purely self-explanatory, and some of them are holding the worship of the arrow god, and there are not many really good archery skills.
Besides, Xie Fei and the three girls are the best among female archers, and in addition to their absolute strength, they may not be much worse than men.
At the end of the race, there were fewer and fewer men left, and after seeing the archery skills of the three girls, self-aware people simply gave up the game, or were embarrassed to compete with the women on the same stage and took the initiative to withdraw from the competition, so in the end, there were really only three people left on the boat, Xie Fei, Cheng Baini and Qin Zhiyu.
With the archery skills of three people, the competition method of shooting horn millet is not a problem at all, and the winner may not be indistinguishable, but it will probably take a long time, who wants to always watch this monotonous game until the night, so when the three of them failed to decide the level after four or five rounds, the rules of the game changed - hang ten horns in a row, and the one who shoots through the most arrows wins!
The difficulty was suddenly raised, and the audience, who were already a little interested, were mobilized again, and their eyes widened to see how the three girls responded.
The next result was even more surprising - these girls were still evenly matched!
It's amazing!
What amazing little girls are now!
Round after round, the girls' persistence and calmness and superb archery skills conquered all the spectators, and everyone could not help but shout in unison, "Arrow God, Arrow God!" Xitu summoned the legendary great figure to fulfill the wishes of the three girls who had worked so hard to achieve.
The sunset in the sky has begun to set in the west, the brilliant sunset will be reflected in the blue waves of Guixu Lake, the beautiful shadows of the three girls are embedded in this colorful background, although they are doing the bow and archery such a sharp action, but the kind of confident, determined, steady, and strong aura, has just made the hustle and bustle of the lake calm and calm down for a whole day, the sun has stripped off the scorching coat, leaving only warmth to the world, the lake has rounded the edges and corners of the waves, and the earth is deep and gentle. On the lake and on the shore, all the people were quiet, silently enjoying this strange and wonderful picture in front of them.
"How long will it take to go on like this?" The relatively youngest girl named Qin Zhiyu couldn't hold her breath in the end, and raised her voice and said to the other two, "Why don't we decide the winner in another way!"
The contestants made their own decisions, but they also got the consent of their superiors, so they removed the horns and let the three of them discuss the duel method themselves.
"It's according to the rules of the riding and archery competition," Qin Zhiyu said, "The three of us occupy the top of a painting boat, let people catch ducks and throw them on the lake, and then the three of them shoot ducks together.
Xie Fei and Cheng Baini had no objections, so some people immediately ran to the shore to collect ducks, and some people who were anxious to see the excitement came up to help.
Qin, Xie and Cheng have stood on the top of a two-story painting boat, each carrying a large basket of arrows, standing with a bow in the shape of a product, waiting for the ducks to be in place, someone lit the time incense, opened the cage door, each cage kicked a kick, the ducks flapped their wings and screamed and flew out of the cage, or jumped into the water or flew into the air, or took the opportunity to chase the boatman, or plunged back to the cabin, the lake suddenly became lively.
Seeing the three girls on the top of the boat without saying a word, they shot their bows, one arrow after another, and the arrows were not missing, and the branches won the bid, which aroused the applause of the onlookers. However, ducks are different from rabbits, the key is that these goods can still fly, and there is no fence around it, the more cunning ducks will flee to the distance, or even swim around the painting boat, so that the three girls on the top of the boat with arrows follow the straight circle, of course, the speed is not as fast as when shooting rabbits, and the sky is getting dark, and the vision is very affected.
Xie Fei's characteristics are still fast, Cheng Baini is still calm, but Qin Zhiyu is very lively, relying on his martial arts, moving and flipping on the top of the boat, picking angles and targets that are difficult for the two to shoot.
The wonderful performance of the three people made the audience dizzy, and they were fascinated, and suddenly heard a coquettish cry, when they saw Qin Zhiyu raising his head and wanting to shoot a duck that was about to go to the sky, he didn't notice that he had already stood on the edge of the top of the boat, and the undulating water of the lake led to the hull of the boat, and the feet suddenly slipped under his feet, and the whole person fell from the top of the boat when he boarded, and what was even worse was that- The arrow in her hand that wanted to shoot the duck had no time to relax, and in the process of her falling, she randomly broke out of the string, and looked at the castration, which actually went straight to the great dragon ship that the emperor was riding!
Everyone was stunned and frightened, and at that moment the tens of thousands of people on the shore of the lake did not make a single breath - all of them held their breath in horror and waited helplessly for the terrible consequences that were about to happen—
At the moment when the color of the sky and the earth changed and everything was silenced, a cold arrow seemed to be born from the void for no reason, and suddenly came like a ghost, and before everyone could react, they heard a "ding" sound in the sky above the lake, which was crisp and slender, but it was clear and distinct.
- However, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes have seen clearly how this arrow is incomparably accurate in the air against Qin Zhiyu's rapid arrow, and how this arrow is intercepted in such an unbelievable way - two flying arrows, the tip of the arrow is on the tip of the arrow!
Qin Zhiyu's sudden, unexpected arrow that can scare everyone, what kind of god-like reaction and hand speed, what kind of calm mind and mood, what kind of strong self-confidence and technology, what kind of precise angle and eyesight can be stopped in such a way?!
The people who had been stunned were then stunned by the arrow, and the whole world continued this strange silence, until someone was the first to come to his senses and let out a long and indescribable exclamation, and everyone began to exclaim, and the earth shook and shook deafeningly!
"What's going on......" Lu Rong couldn't believe his eyes.
"That arrow just now—God! That arrow just now—" Wu Yue was so excited that he couldn't help himself, staring at the direction of the suspected arrow flying out of the dragon boat in the distance, and desperately pulling Yan Qi's sleeve next to him with one hand and shaking, "-It must have been that person's shot!It must have been that person--arrow god!It's the arrow god!Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi!It's the arrow god!"
Wu Yue's voice changed tone, in fact, everyone around her was as excited as her, the boat was full of screams and exclamations, and even Cui Xi, who had never been very interested in anything, was looking in that direction to take a closer look!
He is not an ordinary person, he is a god!
Wu Yue felt that his whole person had fallen into madness, and after being confused, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong, turned his head to look at Yan Qi beside him, and saw her standing there motionless, thinking that she was also stunned by this magic skill, and couldn't help but smile and pull her hand, but once he held it, he was surprised to find that Yan Qi's palm was cold.
