Chapter 14: The Arrow of Sanniang
When I turned around, I saw Lai Xue standing at the gate of the courtyard cheering, and next to her, there was a tall and beautiful young woman wearing a red power suit.
After straightening the somewhat wrinkled robe, he came to the woman in red and hugged his fist: "I don't know if there is a distinguished guest coming, I am disappointed, and I will atone for my sins!" â
The woman in red was not restrained, and she also clasped her fists with both hands and responded: "Brother in the next life is polite, come uninvited, and look at Haihan." â
Lai Xue looked at it in surprise, then turned her head to look at the woman in red: "Sixth brother, Li Xiaosan, what's wrong with the two of you today?" Politely like this? â
came to the whole story, and it is known who it is: it is the leader of the famous "Women's Army" in later generations, Princess Pingyang, Li Sanniangzi-Li Xiuning.
However, the current Li Xiuning is still just a cardamom little girl, although she is heroic and sassy in a strong suit, she does not have the majesty and domineering spirit of commanding thousands of troops in the future.
Playing drums and playing piles, obedient and listening, from Lai Xue's words, Lai Cheng knew that his predecessor and Li Sanniang should have known each other, and the relationship may not be bad, otherwise Lai Xue would not have brought her directly to her own courtyard, let alone said, 'Be polite like this'.
In this case, it would be too fake if he was polite, so he leaned sideways and clasped his hand: "Then you're welcome, Sanniang, please come into the house and talk." â
Li Xiuning didn't move when he heard this, his eyes stared at the three-stone bow that came to his side and asked, "Is this a three-stone strong bow?" Brother in the next life is practicing shooting? â
It seems that everyone is not good at shooting, and he is surprised to see a bow and arrow beside him.
Let's laugh: "I'm bored, I found a bow to practice my head." â
Li Xiuning smiled like a flower: "Brother in the next life, let's be too humble, people in Luoyang City, who doesn't know that Rongguo Mansion Lai Liulang is a gun like a dragon and a horse with the wind, and there is also the first kung fu in the Eastern Capital with one hand." â
came and waved his hand again and again: "How can you say so exaggerated, there are so many talented people in the world, Luoyang City is even more Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, my little juggling skill, how can I get on the stage, and I dare not claim to be the first." â
Li Xiuning's eyes were shining, and he said in his heart: This Liulang was originally fierce, even if he could defeat a hundred, it was just the courage of a horseman. The courage of the puppet is unstoppable, but now it seems that this man still has great wisdom that knows how to hide clumsiness. In this way, the future is limitless!
With a roll of his eyes, Li Xiuning said: "Brother in the next life is really polite, he is obviously full of tiger skills, but he wants to hide it deeply. Xiuning is not talented, but also knows a little riding and archery kung fu, I want to learn from the world, I wonder if the world brother can appreciate the face? â
came to rectify the embarrassment and hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand, Sanniang, it's not that I don't want to, it's really that I can't shoot my marksmanship." â
Lai Xue suddenly answered on the side: "Sixth brother, it doesn't matter if your archery skills are not good, you can let Li Xiaosan teach you." Her bow shot was passed down by Tang Guogong himself. â
Come and see the whole thing, yes, Li Yuan is a master of archery, and it is said that the reason why he was able to marry Mrs. Dou back then was because of his excellent archery skills.
Li Yuan's wife, Dou Shi, was the beloved daughter of Dou Yi, the Shenwu Duke of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the eldest princess of Xiangyang. It is said that when he was young, he was better than Shih Tzu, and the person who came to ask for his relatives stepped through the threshold.
Shenwu Gong Dou Yi was so annoyed by being harassed that one day he couldn't bear it anymore, so he drew two peacocks on the gate screen and drew a line a hundred steps away from the screen.
Then he gave two arrows to all the nobles who came to propose marriage, and said, "When everyone is on the line, whoever can shoot the peacock in the eye, I will marry my daughter to him." â
Dozens of people who came to ask for relatives stepped forward one after another, but they didn't shoot, and finally it was Li Yuan's turn to appear, "swish" two arrows, each hit a eye, Shenwu Gong Dou Yi saw this, overjoyed, and immediately decided to marry his daughter to Li Yuan.
From this, I know that Li Yuan's archery skills are absolutely exquisite, and it will not be bad to get the archery skills of Li Sanniang who has been passed down by him.
Not to mention that she can be taught by Li Yuan, even if Li Sanniang is willing to give advice, the improvement of her archery skills is definitely a hundred times stronger than her own blind exploration.
Thinking of this, he clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly: "Please also ask the third lady for more advice." â
Li Xiuning pursed her lips and chuckled, and calmly accepted the salute.
In this era, the martial arts skills of each family are not passed on, not to mention that it is impossible for people with foreign surnames to learn, and their own people are passed on to their sons but not to their daughters, and their daughters are not passed on to their sons-in-law.
Li Xiuning knew that Ming said that he would pass on the technique to the whole shot, and as a man, for the sake of self-esteem and face, he would definitely refuse to accept it. So she was smart enough to say that she was going to learn, which not only gave him a whole face, but also taught him archery.
This is the grace of passing on the art, no less than apprenticeship, so it is absolutely worthy of bowing and bowing.
Li Xiuning turned his head to Lai Xue and said, "Your sixth brother's three-stone strong bow is too heavy, I can't pull it away, borrow your bow and arrows and use it." â
"Okay!" Laixue jumped back to his boudoir to get his bow and arrows.
Lai Cheng picked up the three-stone bow and invited Li Xiuning to the backyard.
Seeing the feathered arrows all over the wall, but none of them hit the drawn bull's-eye, Li Xiuning couldn't help but laugh lightly.
Lai looked embarrassed and scratched his head: "Let the third lady laugh." â
Li Xiuning put away his smile: "Brother in the next life don't have to be angry, when Xiuning started practicing, he was not as good as Brother Shi." â
Li Xiuning paused, and then said: "There are two kinds of practice shooting: standing shooting and riding shooting, the world brother has just started practicing, so he starts from standing shooting, and he can practice riding shooting when he can shoot nine out of ten. â
Come and listen carefully, nodding again and again.
"Let's talk about drawing a bow and holding an arrow first." Li Xiuning continued: "Hold the bow with one hand and push it forward, and with the other hand, hold the arrow or twist the arrow, and use the wrench to pull back. â
Li Xiuning gestured with his empty hands as he spoke, and stood aside to watch carefully, learning from the same.
"The legs are slightly apart, the feet are on the ground, the body is straight, and the head is fixed, like a 'bow frame'. After pulling the bow full, the front and back hands are used in unison, one hand forward and the other hand close to the cheek. Keep your hands in a straight line with your eyes ......"
Li Xiuning turned his head and held up his arm that was a little drooping: "Stay still." â
After a while, Li Xiuning slapped Lai's arm vigorously, but he didn't move, and nodded with satisfaction: "Brother in the next life is really a martial arts wizard, just practiced, and he has already obtained the essentials." â
He didn't say anything to the whole thing, and continued to maintain the posture of drawing the bow, and his body did not move, like an old monk entering the meditation.
Seeing that Laixue had taken the bow and arrow, Li Xiuning said: "Brother Shi put it down, just raise the bow and shoot it for an hour every day, and you can get something after a month, Brother Shi will watch me demonstrate an arrow."
After receiving the bow and arrow of the snow, Li Xiuning took a hundred steps back, and then looked at the painted bull's-eye, which was already as small as a peach pit.
Holding his breath, he held the bow in his left hand and pulled out a feathered arrow in his right hand and placed it on the bow.
With both hands, push forward and pull back, and slowly raise the bow. Wait until the feather and arrow are eyebrows, and the bow is like a full moon. After a slight pause, the wrench was loosened, and Li Xiuning snorted lightly: "Medium!" â
"Whoosh!" The feathered arrow turned into a bolt of lightning and shot out.
"Poof!" When I looked at it again, the feather arrow had hit the bull's-eye, and the tail of the arrow was still "buzzing" and trembling.
