Chapter Fifty-Four: The Flowing Water Flows and the Flying Eagle Feathers

There's no better way to see mounted archery than on horseback. Therefore, while the fangs inscribed the names of the three men with their feathered arrows, the onlookers scattered in search of their mounts.

The mounts of Wang Fei, Wang Fei and Ashina Wenxia were not tied together, so they went separately to find them, and they met to take their mounts and meet at the arrow target.

Ayitengna was going to go with Wang Fei, but Wang Fei didn't want her to run back and forth, so he told her to wait where she was.

When Wang Fei rushed back to look for Chi Yanhua, he saw Bai Lianju running to the four-wheeled carriage at some point, and he was arching back and forth with Chi Yanhua, having a lot of fun.

"Why is Bai Lianju here?" Wang Fei was both surprised and happy in his heart, he was about to go up to hold Bai Lianju and help him find his master, when a faint fragrance suddenly wafted in the soft wind, Wang Fei put his finger on the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly, and suddenly his heart was beating wildly and blood was surging.

"Brother Fei is here to find Chi Yanhua?" The shadow flickered, Ashina's white skirt flew, wearing a brilliant spring mood, and came out from the back of the carriage.

"Chi Yanhua was originally ...... Oh...... Yes......" Wang Fei said incoherently.

"What a coincidence, I'm also looking for Bai Lian Pony, but I don't know when it came here to play with Chi Yanhua." Ashina Xiaoyun's fingers wrapped around a strand of hair, and he rarely bowed his head and whispered, which was extremely gentle and moving.

Wang Fei knew that Ashina Xiaoyun had come to him on purpose, but of course he would not be stupid and incomprehensible to expose her flawed lies. What's more, this is such a lovely lie......

"Sister Xiaoyun, then let's go over and watch Uncle Ma Lu and them test their archery skills." Although Wang Fei was reluctant to break the atmosphere more beautiful than the spring breeze, he knew that he had to say something.

"Brother Fei......" Ashina, who was standing in place and did not move, blushed slightly, hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice: "The army is marching westward, are you going with the army?" ”

"Well, my father has already agreed." Wang Fei was a little confused, and didn't understand why Ashina Xiaoyun asked this.

"Is Wenxia going to follow Ruyi to the west?"

"yes, I just knew." Wang Fei couldn't keep up with Ashina's train of thought at all.

"What is the situation on the battlefield and the two armies fighting?" Ashina's question is getting stranger and stranger.

"This? It's cruel, it's spectacular, it's shocking......" Wang Fei said three "very" in a row, but he felt that he still hadn't made it clear. He suddenly remembered the polo field, so he said: "Sister Xiaoyun, the battle between the tooth soldiers and the horse bandits on the polo field can be regarded as a small battle. It's just that the real war is much more intense than the conflict on the polo field. ”

"Brother Xie Fei, I understand when I say that!" Ashina smiled, and his expression gradually returned to its former brightness.

She turned around and rode on Bai Lian Ju, urging the horse to leave, and then stopped and said, "Brother Fei, in order not to make some people angry, I won't go with you." ”

Wang Fei was lost for a while, and was about to say something, Ashina Xiaoyun smiled mischievously and said: "Also, Fang Cai's words are a secret between the two of us, Brother Fei don't tell others!" ”

After finishing speaking, Ashina Xiaoyun patted Bai Lianju and left alone.

Wang Fei stood in place in a daze, chewing every word and sentence that Ashina Xiaoyun said, his heart was sour and sweet. Especially the "secret between the two" that Ashina Xiaoyun said at the end made him even more excited and leisurely.

I don't know how long it took, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and Wang Fei reacted from the fugue outside the world. He hurriedly mounted the Chiyanhua and galloped towards the sound of horses' hooves and feathered arrows breaking through the air.

Halfway through, when he met Ashina Wenxia and Ayi Tenggna, who were riding together in Qingmoqi to find him, Wang Fei embarrassedly explained that Chi Yanhua had run too far away, and he had to run to the grove before finding it.

Ashina Wenxia didn't think much about it, but just complained that Wang Fei came too late, and the competition had already begun. Fang Cai Wang Fei was also waiting for Wang Fei, but he was forcibly pulled away by Ashina Xiaoyun who popped out of nowhere.

Ashina Wenxia, who was anxious to watch the game, suggested that she should not let Ayi Tenggena transfer to Chiyanhua again, just ride Qingmoqi with her, and hurry up to chase Ma Lan and the others.

Wang Fei was also relieved of Ashina Wenxia's riding skills, so he agreed with Ashina Wenxia's opinion.

When Chi Yanhua and Qing Moqi were advancing hand in hand, Wang Fei felt that Ayi Tenggana seemed to glance at him meaningfully......

By the time Wang Fei and Ashina Wenxia caught up with the crowd, the game was already halfway through.

Gao Shetun, Ma Lan and Tong Luo Puli galloped while bending their bows and shooting arrows. But I saw the eagle in the air rising against the trend, and the wild geese responded like rain.

The tooth soldiers in charge of the count shouted loudly, driving the horses to rush to the landing point. They compete to see who can pick up the goose with just a beautiful bend.

The tooth soldier who picked up the wild goose raised his prey with his hands excitedly, waving endlessly. The tooth soldiers, who didn't seize the opportunity, hurried to the next landing point.

The fierce competition of the archers on the field and the lively competition of the tooth soldiers off the field pushed the atmosphere of the whole outing to the highest!

The three of Gao Shetun are very proficient in riding, and the mounts under the crotch are all good horses in a thousand, so the speed difference between the horses is not big. Because they still need to be distracted from bending their bows and hunting, when the mound is far away, the three of them basically maintain a posture of advancing together.

The queue of geese in the sky had already become sparse, and the remaining dozen geese scattered in panic.

Seeing that the prey was decreasing, the three of them invariably reduced the number of times they opened their bows and arrows, and urged their horses to speed up with all their might.

At this time, the "shooting" of the riding and archery competition has basically been completed, and the rest is the "riding" competition. The geese have all but disappeared, and the tooth soldiers are no longer prey.

As the horses sprinted, Frost's advantage was revealed, and by the time they reached the mound, Frost had outgrown the body of the horse's mount. With Luo Puli's snow ink is slightly behind.

The crowd of onlookers stared at the three horses and shouted excitedly, and the atmosphere was so warm that it was almost more than the lantern viewing on the New Year's Day!

Seeing that Feishuang was about to step on the mound first, Ma Lu suddenly pulled the reins lightly and bent his bow to shoot towards the sky.

Seeing that Feishuang's speed was declining, Gao Shetun kicked his mount violently, trying to overtake Ma Lu; After shooting the eagle feather, Ma Ling did not check whether he had hit the prey, and hurriedly drove the horse to rush.

At the urging of their masters, the two horses stepped on the mound at the same time.

"Captain Ma, you didn't mean to give in!" The panting Gao Shetun asked with a straight face.

"Gao Changshi, whether to give in or not, we will know in a while." Ma Lan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Don't grind, hurry up and count the geese and see who shoots the most between Gao Changshi and Captain Ma. I've already lost anyway, so I might as well be in charge of counting. Tong Luo Puli, who arrived later, took a few deep breaths and suggested with a big grin.

Seeing that Ma Lan and Gao Shetun both nodded in agreement, the tooth soldiers began to take the feather arrows from their prey, and then carefully identified the names on the arrows.

Once the names were decided, the fangs gathered the arrows to Tong Luo Puli, who arranged the feathered arrows according to the engraved names.

After making sure that the geese were counted, everyone's eyes were fixed on the three piles of feather arrows. One pile is slightly less, and the other two look almost average size.

"At least the pile is mine, so I don't have to count!" Muttered to Luo Puli.

"Tongluo Niangzi, your strength is not as good as me and Gao Changshi, shooting geese on your back will definitely suffer, and it is normal to have a few less. Besides, since this competition, you must be the first goddess archer of Beiting! Ma Lan saw that Tong Luo Puli was a little stupid, and persuaded him.

I don't know if it was Ma Lan's persuasion that worked, or if it was with Luo Puli's own emotional ups and downs relatively quickly, her wonderful eyes suddenly flowed horizontally, and she began to count with a smile.

"With Luo Puli, shoot eleven geese!"

"Captain Ma, shoot fourteen geese!"

"Gao Changshi, shot...... Fourteen geese too! ”

As soon as Luo Puli's delicate report fell, the crowd of onlookers suddenly discussed. Gao Changshi and Captain Ma actually tied again, this game is really exciting!

"Captain Ma, are you afraid of a certain position of power?" While everyone was jubilant, Gao Shetun was a little annoyed.

"I have a lot of respect for Gao Changshi, but I have no fear." Ma Lan's expression remained unchanged.

"If you don't slow down, why count? I'm afraid you remember in your mind how many geese each person shoots! With such talent, why use it here? "Gao Shetun is not relenting.

"Gao Changshi, it should be here......" Ma Lan looked into the distance and answered the question.

"Huh?" Gao Shetun was surprised, and suddenly heard someone shouting in the distance: "Wait a minute, there is another prey!" ”

I saw the tooth soldier "Thin Monkey" holding his prey high and galloping over. When they got closer, everyone was shocked to realize that the prey in the hands of the thin monkey was not a wild goose, but a fierce golden eagle. The golden eagle's neck was directly pierced by a long arrow, and at this moment it was too dead to die.

"Captain Ma's last arrow shot down an eagle!" The thin monkey shouted brightly, as if he was also honored.

Chang'an and his party, the relationship between the thin monkey and Ma Lu is much closer. Therefore, when Ma Lan shot the last arrow before the finish line, most people's attention was focused on the final victory, but the thin monkey did not hesitate to follow the trajectory of the feather arrow, and then slapped the horse and rushed to the landing point of the prey.

The appearance of the golden eagle firmly locked the victory for Ma Lu. Gao Shetun took the golden eagle and looked at it twice, then punched Ma Lu's chest and praised angrily: "Good boy! Attaboy! This is my true character as a Tang man! ”

Without waiting for Ma Lan to be modest, Gao Shetun yelled at the tooth soldiers, "Sons, hurry up and make a fire, hurry up and stew goose meat and eat it!" ”

In the laughter of everyone, the festive atmosphere of the Shangsi Festival has reached the most. Whether it is the high-level dignitaries of the North Court or the ordinary tooth soldiers, they all open their minds and enjoy the joy of the festival.

And after the Shangsi Festival, they will set off for the west! Waiting ahead of them were the Gobi sands, the long distance, the increasingly estranged vassal states and their own tribes, the huge Great Food Empire and the mighty Khorasan cavalry.

However, the Tang Dynasty boy has never been afraid of anything! As long as there is a horse under the crotch, a lance in the hand, and a horizontal knife at the waist, the athletes of the North Court will charge towards all the enemies who stand in front of them! Charge! Charge!!
