Yunzhou Volume Chapter 43 The Test of the Eagle (2)
Ah Lin subconsciously turned his head, only to see that Su Jingchen's arrow target had fallen off the tree, and his arrows were all inserted into the trunk of the tree, nearly an inch into the wood.
How can it be?! Ah Yu's face changed, looking at Su Jingchen's eyes like looking at a monster, this young man looked only three or four years older than Ah Lin, but at the age of sixteen or seventeen, how could he have such arm strength? Not to mention that he fired fifteen arrows in a row, even if he was placed in the angry cloud village where the archer was like a cloud, it was also a leader.
Who is this teenager?
Ah Shan was also a little surprised, although this young man still needs to be improved in some small details, his strength is basically on par with himself. Ah Shan has never used all his strength in practicing archery, but just follows the rules and completes the task assigned to him by the master, and this young man obviously used all his strength, it seems that this young man wants to see the master no matter what.
Ah Lin looked at Su Jingchen, and then at his arrow target, still with a look of disbelief, so he walked towards Su Jingchen angrily and said loudly, "Show me your bow!" ”
Su Jingchen hesitated for a moment, but still handed the bow to Alin, Alin put Su Jingchen's bow in his hand and looked at it, and then raised the bow in his hand, it seemed that he was going to pull it away and try it, but he only opened it less than half before giving up, threw the bow back to Su Jingchen, pouted and said, "Your bow is a three-stone bow, and mine is only nine buckets, no wonder you can shoot the arrow target so quickly." ”
Su Jingchen smiled and did not speak.
Alin turned around again and walked to the tree full of Su Jingchen's arrows, he looked down and touched his chin, counting the arrows stuck in the trunk one by one.
"One, two, three......" Ah Lin suddenly stood up straight, turned his head and looked at Su Jingchen incredulously, "You only shot fourteen arrows?!" ”
"Well, Fourteen Arrows," Su Jingchen scratched his head and smiled, and asked, "It should be, qualified, right?" ”
"Qualified," the man's voice came from the hut again, "Now you and Ah Yu each take a hundred steps back, and then aim at each of their respective targets, and be sure to hit the bull's-eye." ”
Xie Chao subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the arrow target, the bullseye was nearly three inches in circumference, this competition sounded simpler than just now?
"But," the man changed his words and said to Su Jingchen, "Your arrow must be closer to the bullseye than Ah Yu's, otherwise it will be regarded as unqualified." ”
Hey, you old thief, it's bad enough, if your beautiful apprentice hits the bull's-eye with one arrow, or the middle one, then what will you do if you let my brother Su? I see that you just sincerely want to embarrass him, Xie Chao scolded in his heart, he looked at Su Jingchen and the girl, and then looked at the position of the arrow target, and sighed softly.
Let's go pack our bags.
Su Jingchen and Ah Yu stood in their respective positions, Ah Lin put away his bow and stood on the side of the arrow target, intending to look at the target for them, while Ah Shan replaced Su Jingchen with an arrow target, and then returned to the same place, waiting for the two to shoot arrows.
Ah Yu took a deep breath, she drew her arrow, put it on her bow arm, and slowly pulled it away, but she didn't shoot it for a long time.
One hundred steps, plus the previous eighty steps, one hundred and eighty steps, a distance of nearly two hundred steps, a person who can still hit the bull's-eye at such a distance, must be a well-deserved archer.
But unfortunately, the archers of Nuyun Village are all natural archers, and the three of them are been
The people that Eagle fancies are the best among those archers, even if they may not be as good as some of them now, but with their talent and Eagle training, they will definitely be able to become real archers in the future.
Ah Yu is waiting for an opportunity, she wants to maximize her chance of hitting the bull's-eye, the leaves in front of her rustle, her hair also swayed with the breeze, this is the wind from the southeast, which will affect the accuracy of her arrows to a certain extent, she is waiting for the wind to stop, and the moment the wind stops, it is when she shoots.
What she has in her hand is a two-stone bow, which is indeed smaller than Su Jingchen's bow, but with her current arm strength, the two-stone bow is the most suitable for her.
At a distance of nearly 200 paces, the eagle rarely trains them to shoot long, and such a distance may not be trained once a month, because the eagle has said that the distance of 200 paces, to shoot at your place, depends not only on your archery skills, but also on luck.
Although Su Jingchen took out the arrow, he was not in a hurry to put on the bowstring, he just held the arrow, his hand pulled the bowstring at will, his eyes were closed, and his ears moved slightly.
Listen to the wind?! Xie Chao was a little surprised, and said no? Brother Su, do you even use that kind of thing that only appears in romance? Or are you just trying to be handsome, deliberately putting on a show, so that that beautiful little sister is attracted to your handsomeness, distracting her, and then shooting arrows inaccurately? But no one heard Xie Chao's inner monologues, so he could only stand alone and pout, shaking his head and smiling evilly and whispering, "I didn't expect that Brother Su, at a young age, you already know how to use such a good plan as a 'beautiful man's plan', which can be made!" Buildable! ”
The shadows of the trees are about to stop, and the wind has stopped.
Su Jingchen suddenly opened his eyes, he immediately raised his bow and shot, and Ah Yu's arrow also shot out at the same time.
But in an instant, the two arrows came out together, and the air sounded two sharp arrow whistling sounds, the arrows moved slightly, and the wind carried the two arrows, and in an instant they were one hundred and eighty steps away, and almost at the same time, they hit the arrow target hanging on the trunk of the tree.
"Kid, look at who's more accurate!" Xie Chao was too lazy to run with his burden, so he shouted at Alin from afar.
Ah Lin turned his head and glanced at Xie Chao, and said angrily, "You are the child!" I'm thirteen years old! In two years, I will be an adult after the Shenmu Festival! ”
According to the rules of Yunzhou, Yunzhou men, fifteen years old for adulthood, adult men, on the day of the Shenmu Festival, will be blessed by the respected people in the village, and get gifts from the elders, after the Shenmu Festival, it is considered an adult.
Twelve years old, right? This year's Shenmu Festival hasn't arrived yet, Xie Chaoxin said, but he quickly raised his head and smiled, and said, "Okay, okay, little adult, hurry up, see whose arrows are more accurate." ”
Ah Lin turned his head with satisfaction, he first took a closer look at Ah Yu's arrow target - an arrow hit the bull's-eye, there was no suspense, Ah Yu should have won, but when he walked in front of Su Jingchen's arrow target, he suddenly felt embarrassed again, how can this ......
"How's it going?" Xie Chao couldn't help but urge.
"This ...... I can't tell," Ah Lin scratched his head, turned to everyone behind him, and said, "You better take a look for yourself, Brother Ashan, you will preside over it." ”
"Oh?" Ahsan couldn't help but laugh, "This is."
What's wrong? Can't you tell who's winning? ”
"What's going on?" Xie Chao stepped forward, he was close to Ah Yu's arrow target, so he looked at Ah Yu's first, and then went to see Su Jingchen's, while Ah Shan was the opposite.
"I look at these two arrows...... Isn't it all the same, ah no, it should be the same, this is all a real 'bull's-eye', isn't it undecided? Xie Chao turned his head to look at the young man on the other side who was looking at Ah Yu's arrow target.
"No, it's not. The winner has been decided. Ahsan shook his head.
"What's that?!" Xie Chao was shocked in his heart, and said in his heart, "You kid shouldn't be biased in favor of that little girl, right? You can't engage in this kind of shady scene just because you have a crush on someone! Young man, I'm going to educate you, you do this, although you may let the little girl win, but you lose her favor, and the gains outweigh the losses! You can't do it! Shouldn't this situation be recompared? You have to be fair, if you dare to engage in shady scenes, I will dare to go to your master to sue you!
"But didn't I see that both of them hit the bull's-eye? How to divide it? Xie Chao didn't say what was in his heart in the end, after all, he might be beaten badly.
"That's right, Brother Ashan," Ah Lin also agreed with Xie Chao's statement, "Aren't Sister Ah Yu and that brother both hitting the bull's-eye with one arrow?" ”
Ah Shan still shook his head, then pointed to Ah Yu's arrow target and said, "Look, Ah Yu's arrow target hit the bull's-eye, but only the arrow was inserted." ”
Then he walked up to Su Jingchen's arrow target and said, "If you look at this brother's again, he also hit the target with one arrow, but his arrow completely missed the target by nearly an inch, so it should be that this brother won." ”
As he spoke, Ah Shan raised his head and smiled at Su Jingchen, but Su Jingchen just stood in place, not knowing what Ah Shan's smile meant, whether he won or lost?
"You've won!" Xie Chao shouted at Su Jingchen.
Su Jingchen was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, and then said "accept" to Ah Yu in Zhongzhou, but he immediately realized that Ah Yu couldn't understand Zhongzhou dialect, and wanted to say it again in Yunzhou dialect...... He didn't know how to "concede" in Yunzhou dialect, so he had to stand in place in embarrassment, and his face couldn't help but turn red.
If you win, you win, why are you blushing? Xie Chao glanced at Su Jingchen, but he looked at Su Jingchen, and then at Ah Yu, and said in his heart, I go brother, you shouldn't be in love with this little girl, right? Although people are also good-looking, but there are people who like people, you see, standing next to me, a handsome guy in Yunzhou who is stronger than the two of us combined, and the young sister is not bad, and she is also good-looking, I said why don't you blush in front of others?
Ah Lin ran back and forth between Su Jingchen and Ah Yu's arrow targets twice, and still had to admit that it was indeed Su Jingchen who won, but he raised an objection again, "That person used a three-stone bow, and my sister used a two-stone bow, what if they used the same bow?" ”
Ah Shan had no choice but to turn his head to Ah Lin and explain, "Your sister uses a two-stone bow, and that brother uses a three-stone bow, because that brother's arm strength is stronger than your sister's, and it is also up to her to decide what bow to use, and your sister can also use a three-stone bow, but she may not be able to pull it away, so it is that brother who wins." ”
Alin had no choice but to nod and reluctantly say, "Okay then." ”
