Li Xiu was about to taste the dishes sent by the restaurant, but he didn't expect Li Jin to suddenly point out the window and shout excitedly, which made him a little curious, so he turned his head to look, only to see that in a vacant land not far from the window, there were a lot of people gathered, and there were a few men dressed as Hu people in the middle of the crowd, who were performing archery, and from time to time shouting something to the people around them, which looked very lively. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Xiu was also a little curious when he saw this, so he called the guy and asked, "What is that gang doing outside?" ”

The guy looked up, and immediately replied with a smile: "The guests don't know, this group of Hu people has been here for several days, among them there are two marksmen, shouting everywhere to compete with others for arrows, and there are ten ingots of gold in the lottery, as long as you can win them, you can take away the gold, of course, if you want to compete with them for arrows, you must also pay money, a person has always money, but speaking of this group of Hu people's archery is really powerful, even the two archers didn't shoot much, just with a few other Hu people won a lot of money!" ”

Li Xiu immediately understood when he heard this, it turned out that this group of Hu people relied on the ability of archery to make money, and this kind of behavior was also very common in later generations, such as playing chess on the street, of course, in contrast, these Hu people still rely on real skills to eat, after all, archery is a technical job, and it can't be faked at all.

"Okay~" When he was talking, a Hu man in the field performed a horse pedal to hide, and also threw his hand to shoot an arrow straight to the target, which made the surrounding crowd also burst into a sky-high cheer, such a big momentum, naturally attracted more people to watch.

Maybe it was because he saw that the time was almost up, so someone Hu came out to lobby the people around him, and he still held a tray in his hand, although he couldn't see or hear it clearly from a distance, but Li Xiu estimated that the tray was the legendary gold, which could be guessed from the greedy eyes of the people around him.

Maybe it's the gold that touches people's hearts, maybe it's not convinced by the archery skills of these Hu people, so soon someone will go to the game, the first one to go down is a young man, looking at the dress should be a Han person, but not necessarily, after all, in Taiyuan, a place where Hu and Han are mixed, many Hu people like to wear Han clothes and speak Chinese, and even the settled Hu people simply change their Han surnames to let their descendants be Han.

The first young man who came off the field had good archery skills, and he hit the arrow target with three arrows in a row, which also made the people around him applaud, but soon a Hu man came on the field, and he was also hit by three arrows, and he was closer to the bull's-eye, which made the young man also retreat gloomily, and the consistent money he had just handed over naturally also lost.

The prestige of the Tang Dynasty is all relied on the soldiers from all over the country, so the country is also full of martial arts, and the failure of the young people did not deter others, but some people came on the field one after another, but since these Hu people dared to use archery to make money, they were naturally all hard hands, and almost all of the people who played on the field returned with feathers.

Li Xiu shook his head secretly when he saw this, he really didn't agree with the approach of these Hu people, because in his opinion, although the archery skills of these Hu people are good, but their brains are too stupid, according to their gameplay, no one will dare to compete with them soon, if you want to do this business for a long time, you must let the guests occasionally taste the sweetness, otherwise who will play this kind of game that must be lost?

However, although Li Xiu was not interested in archery, Li Jin watched it with relish, and finally turned his head to him and asked, "Father, my archery skills are not bad, why don't we go down and try it with them?" ”

"What are you doing with a little kid?" Li Xiu couldn't laugh when he heard this, Li Jin is very talented in martial arts, he has been practicing riding and archery kung fu with Princess Pingyang since he was a child, it is not an exaggeration to say that his archery skills are much stronger than Li Xiu's father, but no matter how good his archery skills are, he is just a child, so in Li Xiu's opinion, it is impossible to compare with those Hu people below.

"I'm not young, I'm about to be ten years old, and my archery skills are unparalleled, Chu Liang and Huaidao and their brothers can't compare to me, and even the guards in the mansion are no one who is my opponent, and it's not easy to deal with these Hu people?" Li Jinnian was stingy, but at this time he was very unconvinced.

Li Xiu almost laughed out loud when he heard Li Jin's words, he admitted that Li Jin's archery skills were good, and he could indeed be called the first among his friends, but the guards in the mansion were all veterans who survived from the corpse mountain and sea of blood on the battlefield, and some of them had excellent archery skills, which was definitely not comparable to Li Jin's child, but he usually lost to him in order to make him happy.

But at this time, Li Xiu saw his son's conceited expression, but his heart suddenly moved, maybe it is not a bad thing to let him suffer a little setback, after all, those Hu people will not let Li Jin, and he has also seen it just now, almost all of the Hu people who ended up are excellent in archery, I heard that there are still two archers who have not appeared, with Li Jin's archery, I am afraid that if you go down, you will definitely lose!

Thinking of this, Li Xiu also nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, since you want to compete, then let's go down, but you have to eat something first, and I just took advantage of this time for me to get your bow, so that you can use it more easily!" ”

After all, Li Jin is a child, his strength and arm span are insufficient, so the bow he uses is also special, and he will find time to practice archery every morning, even on the way to Taiyuan, and even on the road, he also shot a few prey to improve the food, which attracted many people in the team to praise Li Jin as the son of Princess Pingyang.

"Good!" Li Jin saw that his father agreed, and he was also very excited at the moment, and then began to gobble up the things on the table, and Li Xiu also ordered the guards to fetch bows and arrows, and when Li Jin finished eating, the bows and arrows were also sent by people and horses.

Li Jin took the bow and arrow, Li Xiu also took him to settle the bill and went downstairs, and then walked to the open space, compared to just now, there are fewer onlookers now, after all, many people who were eager to try saw that the archery skills of this group of Hu people were so superb, they asked themselves that there was no chance of winning, and naturally they were not willing to stay any longer, only some people who watched the excitement still refused to go, resulting in no one ending now, it seems that these Hu people can't cheat a few dollars today.

"Who's going to compete with me?" Li Jin is a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, squeezed through the crowd and shouted to the Hu people in the field, the onlookers saw that a child who was not yet ten years old was going to compete with these Hu people, and they were all stunned at the moment, and then there was a commotion, after all, it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, but the more lively the better.

The grassland Hu people in the field were also anxious at this time, after all, they relied on this to make money, but the people around them did not end up, and they naturally couldn't make money, but they never expected that a child would come at this time.

At first, they thought that this child was joking, but after Li Jin finished speaking, a guard immediately stepped forward to take out the consistent money, and then Hu found that the child in front of him was gorgeously dressed, and the small bow in his hand was even more well-made.

"Okay, the hero is not old, little brother, you are really good, I'll try it with you!" At this time, I saw a middle-aged Hu man who stepped forward very happily, he was the organizer of these Hu people, but he was not the head, because his Chinese language was the best, so from the business just now to the communication with the people of the competition, he came forward, but his archery skills were not very good, but in his opinion, it was enough to deal with this rich child.

Li Jin looked the middle-aged Hu man in front of him up and down a few times, then snorted disdainfully, and then pointed to the two archers behind him who had been sitting on the blanket and said, "You can't do it, let's let the two people behind you come!" ”

"Haha~, the little brother's tone is really big, but don't underestimate me, although my archery skills are not as good as our tribe's archers, but they are definitely not bad, and as long as you win me, there will naturally be people with higher archery skills to compete with you, after all, not everyone can compete with our archers!" The middle-aged Hu Ren laughed loudly and said, he knew that the child in front of him was from an extraordinary background, so he didn't dare to offend too much, but he still pointed out that Li Jin wanted to compete with the archer, so he had to pass him.

"Hmph, then let you open your eyes!" Li Jin was also arrogant, and took off the bow and arrow at the moment, "Bang Peng Peng~" Three bowstrings sounded, and the three arrows all hit the bull's-eye, which made the people around them applaud, and it is estimated that they didn't expect this child's archery skills to be better than those before.

The middle-aged Hu people were also startled when they saw that Li Jin's three arrows hit the bull's-eye, and then he also smiled on his face, and he didn't even have the face to compare the arrows, because he knew that his archery skills would definitely not be able to compare with the other party, because he immediately admitted defeat, and then ran to the back to ask the two sitting archers for instructions, and the other Hu people did not dare to go down again, although they were also confident that the three arrows all hit the bull's-eye, but they were not sure of winning.

Li Jin saw that his three arrows shocked these Hu people, and his little face also showed a proud look, and even felt that he had almost won steadily, and the people around him were also full of admiration, but Li Xiu in the back smiled calmly, the higher he holds it now, the worse he will fall, but this can also make Li Jin learn some lessons.

After a while, the middle-aged Hu people invited a sharpshooter over, only to see that this sharpshooter was very young, looking at most about twenty years old, short and strong, and his legs were also a little loopy, at first glance, he knew that he had grown on horseback since he was a child, and his palms were extraordinarily thick, holding a horn bow in his hand, and he didn't seem to understand Chinese, so he didn't speak, but directly pulled out the arrow behind his back, but then he did something that everyone didn't expect!
