The training content of the splendid people in the military camp the next day was the same as the day before, Yan Qi and Xiao Chen still went to practice "two into one", standing in front of the target road, Xiao Chen was not in a hurry to shoot the arrow, staring at the arrow target in the distance seemed to be thinking about something, Yan Qi did not urge him, stood silently next to him, and heard him for a long time: "In your opinion, what is my lack of archery skills?"

"Your basic skills are very solid, your skills are also very good, you have concentration and sharpness, and there is almost nothing to find fault with. "Yan Qidao.

Xiao Chen turned around and looked straight at Yan Qi: "I don't need to listen to kind words. ”

"It's not a kind word, it's a fact," Yan Qi also looked at him, "Your advantage is that all aspects of your archery skills are very balanced, there are no obvious deficiencies, and your mentality is also very good, this is already perfect, if you have to let me pick a bone in my eggs, I can only say that your archery skills are a little less jumpy, you are too calm- If this is a shortcoming, I don't think it's a deficiency, it's just a personal style, and it probably has something to do with your personality, you know, people with different personalities, the archery he uses will have different styles, even if they are all taught by the same master. Compare the archery skills shown by you and Yuan Chang at the Houyi Festival......"

Xiao Chen: "Who is Yuan Chang?"

Yan Qi: "......"

Xiao Chen: "You go on." ”

Yan Qi: "...... I don't want to say anything...... It's the one who turned you back in the end, remember?"

Xiao Chen: "Oh. ”

Yan Qi: "Compared with the performance of the two of you that day, your archery skills are actually not worse than his, in my opinion, it is probably between the best, so why did he win the game in the end?

Xiao Chen: "The way his arrows fly in the air is not normal. ”

Yan Qi: "Does it make people feel caught off guard?"

Xiao Chen: "Yes." ”

Yan Qi: "This is the style of archery he has learned, it is this arrow that caught you 'off guard' for a moment, so that the last arrow was preempted by him, and why are you defenseless against that arrow? is because you didn't expect that arrow to shoot from that angle and in such a rhythmic way, right?"

Xiao Chen nodded silently.

Yan Qi: "So I said that your archery skills are less jumpy, for example, your archery faction is like Shaolin authenticity, one board and one eye, rules and regulations, relying on purity and righteousness to win, and Yuan Chang's archery faction is a wild way in the rivers and lakes, not according to common sense, relying on randomness and diversity, you think, such two factions, against each other, which faction is easier to be recognized by the opponent?"

Xiao Chen lowered his eyelids silently.

Yan Qi: "Just like the martial arts book says, the world's authentic martial arts all originate from Shaolin, and the same is true for archery, after all, the arrows that everyone learns are authentic and passed down from generation to generation, and there are very few people who can create their own wild paths, since others also learn the same faction of archery as you, they can naturally anticipate the law of your arrows in advance, and it is different for wild roads, because there is no way to predict, and the opportunity is often in this instant, whoever catches it first may become the ultimate winner." If you add something 'out of the ordinary' to your archery skills that can catch your opponent off guard, I think it will probably be even more impeccable. ”

Xiao Chen nodded thoughtfully, and then looked at Yan Qi firmly: "Your archery is also a wild way?"

Yan Qi: "Hmm. ”

Xiao Chen: "What's the difference with Yuan Chang's archery?"

Yan Qi: "The only difference is probably that I have a lot more experience than him, so the surprise attack that seems to the opponent is easy for me, but for Yuan Chang, it is a flash of inspiration, easy and a flash of inspiration, it is the subtle gap between the two, which can become the key to determining the victory or defeat." ”

Xiao Chen looked at Yan Qi, his eyes moved lightly: "You mean, your archery skills are stronger than Yuan Chang?"

Yan Qi: "How embarrassing you are asking, how can I answer, will it seem that I am too arrogant to be honest?"

Xiao Chen: "...... You don't have to answer. ”

Yan Qi: "Yes. ”

Xiao Chen turned his head to look at the arrow target in the distance, turned his head and looked at Yan Qi again, looked at it for a long time, seemed to be hesitating about something, and then said in a deep voice: "You, can you teach me to practice the wild way?"

Yan Qi: "Yes, but I can only teach you the number of paths, but experience can't teach you, this thing takes time and experience." ”

Xiao Chen: "What kind of experience can accumulate experience?"

Yan Qi: "Actual combat." ”

Xiao Chen: "Zongwu?"

Yan Qi: "Or a real battle." ”

Xiao Chen thought for a while: "If I go to the border to join the army now, what procedures do I need to go through?"

Yan Qi: ...... Am I saying something wrong...... Will Wu Twelve beat me to death? Will Lord Xiao fight with me?

"I think you'd better learn the number of roads first, and if you want to hurry, you can't reach it. Yan Qi dissuaded Geng Zhiboy.

"Good. Xiao Chen nodded, "Begin." ”

"Remember what I just said, personality affects the style of archery," Yan Qidao, "It is impossible for a person with a serious and rigid nature to dress up and swagger, and the same is true for archery, if you want to shoot an arrow that jumps out, you have to think of ways to make yourself jump out of the existing frame, such as that arrow target, how do you usually shoot arrows at it?"

Xiao Chen pulled his bow and arrow, and an arrow flew out, hitting the bull's-eye.

Yan Qi: "Then I'll leave you a homework now, or this target, you are still standing in this place, and then come up with at least five different ways to shoot the bull's-eye, let's start." ”

When Xiao Chen heard this, he really took the second arrow, but he didn't rush to release it, but held the bow in the direction of the target and fell into thought, Yan Qi didn't bother him, just stood next to him and accompanied him, until he came up with a way to shoot the arrow at the target.

"This arrow is too deliberate," Yan Qi pointed out, "it seems that a hand is forcing you to do it, and this effect will not be good, but it will slow down your arrow, because you spend time thinking about how to shoot the arrow, which is counterproductive." You know, we now use arrows to defeat the opponent, not to perform any shooting salute or performance, there is no need to focus on the posture and process of shooting, what we want is the result, as long as we can shoot the target, even if it is lying on our stomach and shooting upside down, it is not a problem. So you don't care about the posture of the arrow, try to shoot 'at will', don't think about anything, just have one target in your eyes and heart, look at that target, shoot the arrow directly, and use the fastest speed. ”

As Yan Qi spoke, Xiao Chen raised his bow and shot the arrow and released it instantly, the action was really casual, at first glance it looked a bit like Yan Qi's archery posture and style, the arrow hit the bull's-eye, and Xiao Chen's eyes flashed brightly - of course, it was not because he hit the bull's-eye, but the feeling of this arrow shooting out, which made him see a completely different style from his previous archery routine!

"The understanding is very high," Yan Qi praised him, "Okay, you can become a teacher." ”

"......" Xiao Chen immediately released another arrow, but this time he failed to hit the bull's-eye.

"It's not so easy to change the archery habits that have been practiced for more than ten years, take your time, just practice more, don't be in a hurry. Yan Qi said with relief.

Xiao Chen slowly lowered his arm and turned his head to look at her: "Can I ...... Practicing archery with you every day?"

Of course, he was referring not only to the training sessions of the Zongwu Society.

Yan Qi thought for a while: "Then it's probably only time in the morning, I get up every day and go outside for a run, do you want to come?"

"At the beginning of the day, see you at the mouth of Liuchang Street. Xiao Chen said.

At five o'clock in the morning in winter, it was still very dark, and a few stars were scattered in the indigo sky, reflecting the silence of the streets and alleys. Taiping City was still asleep, and the streets were empty, except for the occasional barking of a dog or two from someone's yard in the distance, and then fell silent again.

Yan Qi combed his scholar's bun as always, wore a men's power suit, and ran all the way to the entrance of Liu Changzhi Street, where he saw that Xiao Chen was already waiting there, also wearing a dark blue power suit.

"Let's warm up with a run. "Yan Qidao.

"Good. Then he ran along the street with Yan Qi.

For people with internal strength, as long as they don't run super long distances, they basically won't feel too tired, Xiao Chen deliberately controlled his steps, so as not to make Yan Qi have trouble following, he knew that this girl ran fast and light, but he wasn't sure how long she could last, so he had to accommodate her speed and stride, although doing so would make him feel a little unable to move his muscles and bones, and it would not play a role in exercising.

Two people walked side by side in the night, turning from the small street to the street, and from the street to the national highway, this is the route that Yan Qi runs every day, this national highway runs through the entire Taiping City, wide, long and straight.

Running and running, Xiao Chen was surprised to find that the speed of this girl was getting faster and faster, since she ran on the national highway, she began to spread joy as if she was unrestrained, her steps were still so light and silent, but the frequency was gradually accelerating, listening carefully to her breathing, it was no different from when Fang Cai was slow, there was no hurry!

Doesn't she know how to do internal strength? How can she understand the method of pranayama? Isn't she born and raised in the boudoir since she was a child? How can she have such good stamina and be able to run faster and faster? How many other things about her will surprise people? She ......

"Hey...... I've turned a corner, don't run any further. Yan Qi's voice came from behind him.

“……”

The longer he ran, the more Xiao Chen found that he still underestimated this girl, not only did he run faster and faster, but he also had the strength to sprint in the end, so that even he had to take a big stride and struggle to keep up, and after stopping, he finally heard her slightly heavier and slightly urgent gasp, blowing white breath from her mouth and nose, her lips were cold red and moist because of the temperature, and her skin was lined with more and more white.

Like a female ghost, she specializes in absorbing people's yang energy and using it to practice Dan. Xiao Chen thought to himself.

The female ghost pursed her cool red lips, gasped and asked him, "Where are you going to practice?"

“…… I have a shooting range at home. Xiao Chen looked at her.

"Okay, don't alarm Ling Zun Lingtang and the rest of your family, otherwise it will be easy to lead to misunderstandings, and besides, can you guarantee that I won't be seen by outsiders when I leave your house?" Yan Qi asked.

"Yes. "Outside the back door of Xiao's Mansion is a public alley, and there are not many pedestrians, but there are often people who pass through that alley for a super-shortcut, so even if Yan Qi comes out of that alley, she will only be considered to be a super-close road, not to mention that she is still dressed as a man.

Xiao Chen took Yan Qi to climb into his house from the back door wall, the shooting range was built in the back garden, and the garden gate would not be unlocked until dawn, so there was no need to worry about someone coming at all, the shooting range was also a long distance from the inner house in front, and no one would hear the two of them even if they shot a symphony with archery in the shooting range.

The bows and arrows used for practice have been prepared, the two of them went over and took their own hands, standing in front of the target road, Yan Qi took the arrow, and was not in a hurry to release it first, but said to Xiao Chen, who was looking at her next to him: "The martial arts book says that martial arts in the world are only fast and not broken, and the same is true for archery, and how to shoot fast? However, it is easy to shoot without thinking, and it is difficult to shoot at the target without thinking, which requires not only a certain familiarity with any kind of archery posture and angle, but also a super feel, both of which do not require a lot of practice. Now let's practice a thousand arrows first, and we must complete it in a quarter of an hour. ”

Shooting a thousand arrows in two quarters of an hour, with an average of more than 30 arrows per minute, requires that you cannot swing the arrow in a proper manner, but can only shoot the arrow without thinking.

The two of them each began to practice a thousand arrows with a target, and the sound of "tuk tuk" on the empty shooting range sounded one after another, and these sounds were blocked by the stone mountains and trees in the garden, and only a faint sound was left behind the rockery that Xiao Tianhang erected.

Xiao Tianhang stood and watched from afar for a long time, and finally sighed deeply: "Is this nature, or is it the will of heaven?"

……

Young Master Yan Jiu's cold and flu took a few days to recover, and on the morning of the day, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed wrapped in a quilt and drinking the medicine brought in by the red pottery, and saw his sister come in with the Wanglou plum blossom buns and Granny Cao's meatloaf bought from outside, and she was still holding the hot bamboo shoot fern wonton that the gang had just made in her hand: "Drink the medicine and eat it while it's hot." ”

Young Master Yan Jiu slowly drank the bowl of Chinese medicine, and when Hongtao took the bowl and withdrew from the room, he slowly got off the bed and glanced at his sister: "Where are you going with Xiao Yayuan?"

“……”

"Could it be that Lord Xiao gave up his child to trap the wolf?"

“……”

"Why bother so much, you can do it with a pot of braised pork. ”

“……”

Rest assured, the child seems to be really well.

However, Yan Qi is not allowed to watch the second leg of the home game against Jiamu in the afternoon, as long as Jinxiu wins this one again, he can enter the quarterfinals and face the Ziyang team of the king's division, after a whole week of devil training, the Jinxiu team members are full of energy and confidence at this moment, and in the enthusiastic shouts and cheers of their own alumni and fans, they will be able to cut down the Jiamu team again with an unstoppable attitude!
