Chapter 55: The Wolves
If you don't aim, you can't hit every shot just by feeling.
But Song Shixing has already achieved five shots and five hits.
As for the fifth shot, although he didn't use both hands and feet like before, it was too difficult to maintain such a high accuracy at this rate of fire.
Luo Bai couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the strength of these veterans of the empire who have survived until now is so terrifying?
Zhang Shiqi said: "Brother Lu, my father used to be a member of the army, and my kung fu was taught by him. My father has been a county magistrate in the local area for almost ten years, but he can still teach soldiers like me, you can imagine how terrifying the strength of those veterans who have experienced life and death battles! ”
Luo Bai looked at Song Shixing again and said coldly: "This is the best!" If the empire wants peace and the people want stability, they must have a division of battles to defend it. These people can be called the army of a hundred battles, can we, as successors, be worse than them? ”
Zhang Shiqi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Brother Lu's thoughts are really different. ”
Between the two talking, it was another mile away.
Song Shixing did not urge them to hunt, but the two of them bent their bows and arrows in unison and began to hunt.
Bend the bow in your left hand and hold an arrow in your right hand, calm your mind, and after two breaths, shoot the arrow.
Twenty feet away, a running wolf fell to the ground, wailing incessantly.
Luo Bai looked at the wolf, smiled slightly, and heard Zhang Shiqi's voice: "Good archery!" ”
Luo Bai turned his head to see that there was also a wolf not far away that fell to the ground.
Both were shot with one stone.
"Hahaha, I'll just say that you two boys are good, this archery skill is already considered to be in the house."
Zhang Shiqi snorted coldly: "In front of adults, our archery skills are not worth mentioning. ”
Song Shixing laughed again and continued to move forward.
This time, neither of them spoke, both of them were waiting for the last part of the road.
In the middle, Song Shixing shot two arrows in a row, two shots and two hits.
So far, he has shot seven times and hit seven times, showing unparalleled archery skills.
Zhang Shiqi said in a deep voice: "He asked each of us to have ten arrows before, and he said that he would shoot six shots out of ten. But looking at him like this, he is ready to shoot ten shots. And six of the arrows were shot at wolves. ”
Luo Bai looked at Song Shixing's back from beginning to end, as well as his peerless archery skills, not only did not flinch, but showed endless fighting intent: "Don't you think it makes sense to pull such a person off the horse?" ”
Zhang Shiqi scolded with a smile: "You are really a madman! ”
"Captain Wu, I don't know if you have found it, no matter what Lord Song's purpose is in doing this, if the veterans who come down to select are all so strict and impersonal, then what kind of existence will the newly formed champion battalion be?"
Zhang Shiqi's eyes lit up: "It's hard to be ......"
Luo Bai immediately strengthened his belief: "Rush forward!" ”
But at this moment, Song Shixing's speed suddenly slowed down.
This change caught the two off guard, and the two immediately reined in the horse's reins and kept their distance from Song Shixing.
After all, rushing over now, Song Shixing can chase it back at any time. The reason why they made a move at the end of the road was that they didn't want to give Song Shixing a chance to turn around.
But why did he slow down?
"What are you two muttering along the way?"
Song Shixing's first sentence made Luo Bai and the others tremble.
Luo Bai snorted coldly, uncooperative as always.
Zhang Shiqi also sneered: "The speed of the adults is like wanting to eliminate all of us, Brother Lu and I don't want you to succeed, and we are discussing how to catch up with you!" ”
Sometimes, instead of telling a lie that is not clever, it is better to tell a part of your plan to be more credible.
Luo Bai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he understood what Zhang Shiqi meant.
Song Shixing said disdainfully: "You don't have to. According to your current strength, even if you don't catch up with me, I recognize you: you have been selected. ”
This sentence was unexpected by Luo Bai and Zhang Shiqi.
"What do you mean, sir? Isn't the selection still going on? ”
"The commander asked me to come down and select, so I have the final say on who can do and who can't, and who doesn't choose who to choose. Besides, I don't want to choose this team to represent the champion battalion to participate in the autumn festival is too bad, it is not only you who are ashamed, but also the people who lose the entire champion battalion, and lose the face of the general! ”
I don't know how much Song Shixing said is true, and how much is big. It was heard in the ears of Luo Bai and the others, but they were powerless to refute it.
"It's in the middle."
In the rapid attack, the ten-mile journey is just fleeting.
This time, Luo Bai did not concentrate on riding, but looked at Song Shixing.
Archery is not only a test of arm strength and wrist strength, but also mentality, eyesight and perception.
The most important thing is the ability to accurately calculate the target after it is captured.
Both the wind and the surrounding environment can have an impact on the arrow and the target.
If a fast-moving target changes, it can lead to a situation where the skin is passing by.
Song Shixing's legs clamped the horse's belly, stabilized his body, and while maintaining the same rhythm as the horse's jumping, he bent his bow and arrows, holding his breath.
One breath, two breaths.
At this moment, Song Shixing, who was incarnated as a shooter, was calm and behemoth, which shocked Luo Bai.
Now Luo Bai can concentrate at most, regardless of external interference. But Song Shixing has already entered a state of mystery and mystery, with only bows and arrows in his eyes, only goals!
At the moment when Song Shixing was about to let go of his hand to shoot the arrow, a scream came from not far away, and the targeted prey suddenly stopped, then changed direction, and rushed towards Song Shixing and the three of them.
Song Shixing immediately put away his bow and arrows and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
A figure had already ridden off into the distance.
Song Shixing said angrily: "What's going on? ”
Before he could finish scolding, Zhang Shiqi had already shouted: "Wolves! Wolves! ”
Song Shixing immediately went to see that the wolves that were originally free-range together rushed towards the fence at this moment.
Looking at the more than fifty wolves gathered, Zhang Shiqi and Luo Bai, who had been calm and calm before, were shocked for a moment. Zhang Shiqi's face turned even pale, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes!
Luo Bai fortunately experienced two life-and-death battles with real swords and guns, and immediately returned to his senses and said, "Lord Song, what's going on?" ”
Without waiting for Song Shixing to answer, he asked again: "Is this also the content of the assessment?" ”
Song Shixing said angrily: "I'm here for the assessment, not for your life!" ”
Luo Bai realized that he was thinking too much, and immediately said: "My lord, whether you want to fight or withdraw, hurry up and give the order." ”
Thirty zhang distance, that is, two or three breaths. If it weren't for a one-man tall wooden fence in the middle, they might not even have a chance to escape.
After all, they have too few bows and arrows.
Song Shixing immediately said: "You can't withdraw." If we let this group run out, in case they rush to the barracks or nearby villages and towns, then we will be guilty of a great sin. ”
When Luo Bai heard the meaning of this, he immediately bent his bow and shot an arrow.
"Lord Song, I still have five arrows here!"
Song Shixing's face was ugly and said: "Three! ”
In order to pretend to be forced before, I used two more arrows, which is really damned!
At this time, Zhang Shiqi finally sobered up.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, trembled slightly, and said, "I still have six arrows!" ”
Fourteen arrows, even if they are all hit, can only kill thirty percent of wolves, what about the remaining thirty or so?
Song Shixing glanced at it and immediately said to Zhang Shiqi: "You go back now to pick up the rest of the people and tell them to let them come here as soon as possible to kill the wolf." Whoever can shoot a wolf, I'll count him qualified! ”
Is this to leave two to deal with these wolves?
Zhang Shiqi reacted immediately and shouted: "I will also stay ......"
"Give this kid the rest of the bow and arrows, and go!"
Song Shixing said, grabbed an arrow, picked off the bowstring, and then gave Luo Bai the three bows and arrows on his body.
"It's yours to hunt, I'm going to lure the wolves now!"
Looking at the decisive Song Shixing, Luo Bai was just about to speak, but was blocked back by Song Shixing: "The order doesn't need to be explained!" ”
This is as heavy as a thousand words, blocking everything in the throat.
Luo Bai could only watch Song Shixing rush over.
"Lord Song, be careful!"
No matter what happened between them before, at least now, Song Shixing's performance is worthy of respect.
"Brother Zhang, the order has been given, and now is not the time to hesitate. The sooner you bring someone back, we'll be safer sooner!" ”
He snatched Zhang Shiqi's feather arrow, then bent his bow and arrow, and hit it again.
Zhang Shiqi completely understood the situation in front of him, he had not experienced a real war, and he was not used to the sudden battle.
If he really encountered a surprise attack, maybe he had been stunned before and had died eight times.
He immediately cleaned up his mood and said in a deep voice: "Wait for me to come back!" ”
The growth of a warrior often takes time.
After experiencing the attack on Luojia Village and the attack on the Champion Battalion, Luo Bai has initially possessed the qualities of a qualified soldier.
His strength, mentality, and war mentality have already been initially reflected in this raid by wolves.
On the other side, Song Shixing held a bow arm as a weapon, guarding the side of the fence, waiting for the wolves.
"Boy, shoot accurately!"
Luo Bailang said: "Don't worry, Lord Song, you are so annoying, I still want to beat you with my own hands, I won't let you die here!" ”
Hearing such frank words, Song Shixing suddenly laughed: "That's good, I'll wait for you to beat me out!" ”
While we were talking, the wolves had already rushed over.
Looking at the scarlet eyes, as if he had been hungry for several days, Song Shixing once again remembered the figure that was far away before.
But he thought to himself, but he didn't slack off in his hands.
A bow arm that constantly picks off the wolves who want to climb over the fence.
But he was only one man, and the wolves rushed over, not just at the point he guarded.
Luo Bai has been in a state of bending his bow, and when he saw the wolves rushing out from other positions, it was an arrow.
Finally, the first wave of the wolves' attack was stopped.
Song Shixing didn't look a little relaxed: "Don't take it lightly, boy. This is the first dozen wolves, and the next wave is the most difficult! ”
Lang Bai said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my lord, I have been pressing the arrow!" ”
As he spoke, the second wave of wolves arrived.
Luo Bai immediately looked at the ten-zhang wide area of the raided area, ready to release arrows at any time.
Just then, there was the sound of horses' hooves.
Luo Bai's heart moved: Help is coming? So fast?
He pulled the bow and arrow forward a little, looked behind, and sure enough, he saw that Zhang Shiqi was back, but there was no one behind him.
Could it be that he didn't call for help, and ran back by himself?
This idiot!
Luo Bai relocked the ten-zhang fence, but shouted, "What are you doing when you come back?" Hurry up and call for help! ”
"I'll kill you!"
A chill instantly enveloped Luo Bai's whole body!
