Chapter 172: Trust and Suspicion

The Khan of Mur Si always considered his son Yangwozhi to be the first archer of the Turks besides the Condor King, and he was always proud of it. Who knew that two people suddenly appeared today, and they could defeat Yang Wuzhi, how could this not surprise him.

Eke did not hide it, and told him the reason why he used to teach Li Yide archery.

"How's that okay?" The Silent Khan muttered to himself.

Sanger pondered for a moment and said, "The only way to do this now is to let the Condor King go out in person!" ”

"Good!" Mo Si Khan nodded and said, "It's decided, I'll let the Evil King come back!" ”

Sanger hurriedly dissuaded: "Khan, by no means! If we let the Hun Evil King come back at this time, not only will we destroy our prestige and increase the morale of the other party, but from now on, the Hun Evil King will never be able to raise his head in front of the grassland tribes! ”

"Archwizard, what do you say you should do?"

"Khan, if you can't do it......" Sanger whispered.

……

"Lao Li ......"

Li Tao thought about it and didn't know how to say to Li Yide that he would compete for him.

"Little master, you say!" Li Yide bowed his head and said.

Li Tao saw Li Yide's face depressed, and his words changed again: "Lao Li, you can go with confidence, it doesn't matter if you win or lose!" ”

"Little master, I ......"

Li Tao waved his hand and asked, "Old Li, do you remember what you once said about controlling arrows with will?" ”

Li Yide nodded.

"The wind moves from the heart, the clouds are born at will, there is nothing and no dust, what does it mean! If you have nothing but arrows, you can control them! ”

Li Yide bowed his head and pondered.

After a long time, he looked up and smiled.

"Got it?" Li Tao also smiled.

"Alright, there you go!"

"Yes, little master!"

Li Yide was about to turn around, but saw Mo Si Khan standing up from the observation platform, and said loudly: "In order to make this year's Stone Man Conference more exciting, Ben Khan has decided to increase the archery competition from one to three, and the side that wins two is the final winner. ”

As soon as Mo Si Khan's words ended, there were bursts of cheers from the audience, and the audience was thrilled that they could feast their eyes.

Li Tao frowned when he heard this, and he called Li Yide: "I'll go with you." ”

When he arrived, Li Tao saluted the Mosi Khan: "Your Majesty the Khan, I am Li Tao, a merchant of the Tang Dynasty, and I agree with the Khan's decision just now, but I have a request, and I hope the Khan will allow it!" ”

Everyone in the audience didn't understand until now that it turned out that the person who was competing with the same Russia was only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.

Mo Si Khan didn't know what Li Tao's idea was, but he couldn't help but answer Li Tao's words, he said in a deep voice: "You come on! ”

"Your Majesty the Khan, it is not appropriate for me and the prince of Tongrussia to be the two sides of the competition, but we have never shown up. I hope that His Majesty the Khan will agree to cooperate with the prince of Tongrussia in this first archery competition! ”

Mur Khan did not rush to answer, but asked: "How to cooperate?" ”

Li Tao said lightly: "I and the prince of Tongru are each the targets of archers, limited to three times, if I can do it with the prince of Tongrussia, I will admit defeat." ”

Li Tao's request was fair and reasonable, and the Silent Khan could not refuse, but he was still a little hesitant and set his sights on Tongrussia.

At this time, Tong Russia could not back down no matter what, he stood up and said to the Mosi Khan: "I accept the challenge, please ask my father for permission!" ”

Mo Si Khan nodded and said, "I gave permission, be careful yourself!" ”

……

The distance between the two stone pillars is no more, no less, exactly two hundred and fifty steps.

Li Tao leaned against one of the stone pillars with an apple on his head. Two hundred and fifty steps away, in front of another pillar, Li Yide was on the bow.

The surrounding spectators were shocked, and looked at Li Tao with bated breath with a smile on his face, admiring the courage of this young man in their hearts. Shooting an apple from 250 paces away may not be difficult for a sharpshooter, but it is a great test for a collaborator with an apple on his head.

"Whoosh!" Li Yide's arrow was out of the way, and he shot the apple above Li Tao's head cleanly and accurately.

"Good!" The crowd cheered.

Li Tao had a smile on his face from beginning to end, and he didn't even blink his eyes the moment the arrow was fired.

Suanna's eyes became shining, Li Tao's image at the moment has been deeply engraved into her mind, what more could she ask for when she met such a man who did not hesitate to fight for his life?

Li Tao's performance also made Mo Si Khan dare not underestimate this Tang Dynasty boy anymore, how could such a courageous and knowledgeable opponent be easy to deal with?

It was his turn to play, and he exhaled deeply and strode towards the stone pillar.

Tong's face was pale, and although he tried to show some anger, his slightly trembling legs betrayed him mercilessly.

Yang Wuzhi's face was solemn, he took out an arrow from his quiver, glanced at Tongru in the distance, and wound the arrow.

Yang Wuzhi's actions all fell into Tong Russia's eyes, and a thought suddenly flashed in his heart: If Yang Wuzhi took this opportunity to deliberately shoot himself to death, he would ......

The idea of Tongru is not imaginary, Yang Wuzhi is the third brother of Tongru, and is deeply loved by the Mosi Khan, and he is the most powerful contender for the succession of the Khan to Tongru. If at this time, Yang I used the excuse to shoot myself, at most I would be reprimanded by my father Khan, but wouldn't I die too unjustly?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Yang Wuzhi was suspicious, and he could even see Yang Wuzhi smiling at him, but he had no way to deal with it. Tong's Russia regretted a little, he shouldn't have been hot-headed just now to agree to Li Tao's challenge, pushing himself to the brink of death.

Yang Izhi, who raised his arrow to aim, reluctantly put down the bow and arrow in his hand, and shook like chaff in Russia, and the apple was almost about to fall down, which made him shoot this arrow.

When everyone watching saw Tongru's embarrassed appearance, they couldn't help but secretly despise it: it was not as good as a Tang Dynasty boy, it was simply a loss of Turkic face.

"What a bastard, it's in vain that I value him so much!" Tong's poor performance made Mo Si Khan feel unbearable on his face, and he scolded angrily.

Eke is a master archer, and he knows the subtleties of this competition. They are not comparing the archery's archery, but the psychological quality of the collaborator and the degree of trust in the shooter. Li Tao skillfully took advantage of the contradiction between Russia and Yang, and in terms of how could the two brothers trust, the outcome of this competition was decided before it was made. But even if you lose, you can't lose so ugly, thinking of this, Eke shook his head and got off the lookout, walked up to Tongru, and whispered something to him.

After hearing this, Tongru nodded, turned his back to Yangwuzhi, and there was no Yangwuzhi in his eyes, the fear in Tongru's heart was reduced a lot, and his body no longer trembled.
