Chapter 766: Riding a horse and howling the west wind

PS: It's the second change, and I will give a few more monthly passes, thank you.

Before the Qing army entered the customs, the Manchus often used deer bone wrenches, which were yellow, and turned light brown over time, and were valued for having eyes.

Yu Feibai understood this truth, so he directly selected a deer bone wrench with eyes, and tried it on, feeling that the size was moderate and the feel was really good.

"There's a wrench guard."

At the same time, Wang Guan smiled and said, "Do you want to continue to test the bow?" ”

"Forget it."

At the right time, Yu Feibai said stupidly: "If you have the ability, you can try it, it is estimated that it is very reluctant." ”

"Brother Wang, you try it too." Murong Guang also had some expectations, he just felt that Wang Guan's strength was great, so he took out the bow, and he didn't know if Wang Guan could pull it away.

"Okay."

I feel that this longbow is good, and Wang Guan doesn't mind trying it. At that moment, he also picked a bone wrench and put it on, and then took the longbow in Yu Feibai's hand, and then used it little by little, and the process was a little difficult, but in the end, he still pulled the bowstring by half, forming a full moon that was not perfect, but had already taken shape.

"No, it's really opened."

For a moment, Yu Feibai and Murong Guang were amazed.

"It's pulling away, but it's still a little difficult."

At this time, Wang Guan lightly moved his hand, and with a bang, the bowstring trembled at a speed invisible to the naked eye. The sound of the air cracking is enough to make people imagine that if the arrow is on the string, it must be very powerful.

"This is normal, the last time Fang Kai came over, he also took this bow to hunt. It had only been a morning, and he began to cry tired. Murong Guang smiled: "But I have to admit that this bow is extremely powerful. Fang Kai tried, standing seventy or eighty meters away, directly piercing a goat and killing him with one arrow. ”

"Brother Yu's physical fitness, it must be much stronger than me." Wang Guan said with a smile. This is also the truth, after all, people exercise every day in the barracks, and their comprehensive quality will definitely blow up his street.

"It doesn't matter, just take this bow with you, maybe I'll use it too." I didn't believe it, and I couldn't shoot a bow or an arrow with all my might. ”

While speaking, Yu Feibai suggested again: "You feel struggling, it's a big deal to take an extra light bow for backup." ”

"It's fine."

Wang Guan nodded, and then said with a smile: "Brother Mu." You should have a place to practice archery here. We'll go hunting tomorrow, and now we'll have a chance to hold on to our feet. ”

"That's right, grinding guns in battle, not fast and light." Yu Feibai thought so, and at the same time said unashamedly: "Besides, with my talent and intelligence, no matter what I learn, I can become a sharpshooter with a little practice." ”

In this regard, Wang Guan and Murong Guang smiled and did not comment.

"Next to the ranch. There is a dedicated archery range. ”

At the same time, Murong Guang reminded: "But just practice casually, don't overdo it, otherwise your arms will definitely be sore tomorrow." You can't take part in the hunt. ”

"Yes, we also understand the truth of overreach......"

After a while, when they came to the archery range, the two of them really shot an arrow in moderation. Just stopped. Murong Guang has a lot of experience, and under his guidance, the two have also improved a lot. It looks like it's getting the same thing.

Of course, the practice is just an appetizer, and the real test of the results will be tomorrow's actual battle.

A day passed, and the next morning, the trio completely changed their outfits. The cuffs and trousers are completely tight, he wears a hat on his head, hiking boots on his feet, a longbow in his hand, and a quiver on his back, and his whole body is full of heroic spirit.

"Let's go, let's go."

At the sound of an order, the three of them galloped on horseback and experienced the taste of riding a horse and whistling the west wind. After a long time, under the guidance of Murong, they came to the foot of a rolling mountain.

"This is part of the Qilian Mountains." Murong Guang said with a smile: "We have contracted a radius of dozens of miles from this mountain range, and recruited special staff to manage it. I was playing by myself, but I didn't expect it to develop into a new project......"

At the beginning, Wang Guan didn't understand what Murong Guang meant. But when I walked to a nearby site similar to a mountain village, I found that there were quite a few people here. At a glance, there are at least hundreds. Everyone was dressed up in the same way, holding bows and arrows, gathering in groups of three or five, chatting happily.

"These people, all of them are here to participate in the hunt?" Wang Guan was a little surprised.

"That's right."

Murong Guang was a little helpless, and said with some joy: "Originally, a few of our friends were playing, but one day I felt that this was not lively enough, so I simply called friends to come over and have a good time." Unexpectedly, those people became addicted and called their friends over. This cycle continues, and gradually more and more people know that there is a place where they can go hunting. ”

"In this part of the Northwest, there are quite a few people who like to hunt. Seeing that the more people participated, you can imagine what happened later, and some people proposed to simply expand the scale, and then run it as a business, and set up a membership system. ”

Murong gestured and chuckled: "Then it became like this, every time a hunting activity is carried out, it is very lively, and the number of people who signed up for this year has exceeded 100." ”

"Then we didn't sign up, can we participate?"

"It's okay, as one of the shareholders, I still have the power of the two people......

While speaking, Murong Guang walked over with the two of them. There were quite a few people who greeted Xiang one after another, apparently he was not lying, and as one of the organizers, he was somewhat of a celebrity here.

"Boss Mu!"

"Mr. Mu!"

"Brother Rongguang!"

In the midst of the greetings, Murong Guang kept nodding his head, very proud. At this moment, someone suddenly laughed loudly: "Brother Rongguang, is this year's goal still the king hunter?" ”

"Aren't you a pot that you can't open and mention, Brother Rongguang has been three times in a row, and he will definitely fight hard this year......"

Hearing the conversation between the two, the smile on Murong Guang's face suddenly froze, and he immediately looked back, and said angrily: "You two don't pour cold water on me, and I will show you a hunting king this year." ”

"Then we'll see."

All of a sudden, many people had smiles on their faces. In fact, so many people participate in hunting activities, but there is only one king hunter, and there must be 99% of people who do not get this honorary title.

However, Murong Guang, as the first realm hunting king, failed miserably one after another in the next three years of activities. It's not that his grades are bad, in fact, his harvest is among the best among the crowd. But it's a pity that he just lost a little luck and couldn't realize his dream of winning a second consecutive year.

It's just that after knowing this situation, everyone made fun of him a lot. Note that it's just a joke, and it's not meant to be ridiculous. After all, people have good grades and harvest every year, which is definitely much better than people who return empty-handed every year.

It can be said that there are hundreds of people participating in the event, but at least more than half of these people are purely here to make soy sauce, just to join in the fun, and there may not be any gain. But even if you know that there will be such an outcome, they are happy to do it, and if you don't let them participate, they will definitely be anxious with you.

Ouyang Xiu said well, the drunkard's intention is not to drink, people are here to play, and they enjoy this process. It's good to have a harvest, and it doesn't matter if you don't. The key is to be happy, then it's worth it.

At this time, in the midst of everyone's laughter, Murong Guang introduced Wang Guan and Yu Feibai to a few of his partners, and after a few chats, the hunting conference officially began.

After three or four years of business improvement, the hunting conference is also relatively standardized, with judges and referees. At this time, when the judges announced the start, several employees immediately opened the cage, and then suddenly beat the gongs and drums, and one or two hundred pheasants and hares immediately rushed into the mountain, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

It's a bit like hunting in ancient times, where the prey was prepared before the emperor and nobles went hunting. Sometimes the guards deliberately make the prey half dead, and then let the emperor mend the knife, and the results will naturally be counted on the emperor's head. That's why an emperor through the ages hunted many fierce animals such as bears, tigers, and wild leopards in his life.

Of course, the people who participate in the hunt now certainly do not have such good treatment, although a new batch of prey has been released, but the mountains are undulating, and there are many places to hide. Therefore, whether you can find the prey and hunt it smoothly depends on your own ability and luck.

After the prey was released, it took another twenty minutes before the group was allowed to go up the mountain to hunt.

In the process of going up the mountain, Murong Guang also explained the scoring rules to Wang Guan and Yu Feibai, ten points for goats, twenty points for hares, and thirty points for pheasants...... Anyway, the larger the size of the animal, the lower the score.

"Of course, if you have the ability to shoot a bird directly, it can be calculated as fifty points."

Murong Guang sighed: "The year before last, there was a guy who stepped on dog shit luck, obviously wanted to shoot a squirrel, but inadvertently shot a small bird down with an arrow. Although everyone knew that he was lucky, it was really cheap to see him win the title of King Hunter. ”

"It does ......"

Wang Guan and Yu Feibai nodded in agreement, you must know that in modern society, bows and arrows have withdrawn from the stage of history. It is not that it is eliminated by society, but it no longer has the conditions for large-scale application. Either it appears in sports, or it belongs to the category of enthusiasts like Murong Guang and others.

Anyway, for the vast majority of people, bows and arrows are just a niche gadget that is both familiar and unfamiliar. Hunting pheasants and hares is still a combination of strength and luck, but shooting birds is definitely luck.

It's not that there are no such archers in real society, but people with this ability should have gone to the Olympics to win a gold medal a long time ago, and they shouldn't have appeared in this amateur hunting activity.

As for cheating, that's even more impossible. This activity itself is mainly for play, and as for the title of King Hunter or something, it is everyone's joke, and there is no substantial benefit at all.

In addition, the people who can participate in this event are more or less people of status, and it is impossible to cheat for a joke-like title. It is estimated that only bored people will be so full and have nothing to do...... (To be continued......)
