Chapter 29: Blood Splattered on School (3)
Soon, someone handed over the prince's longbow, and a black dragon on the blood-red vermilion bow hovered upward, flamboyant and gorgeous.
The prince took his bow, bowed his head and whispered a few words in his attendant's ear, and the man turned and walked towards me. Walking up to me, his inverted triangular eyes stared at me, but he reached out and grabbed the little tiger tooth beside me, and handed him a feather crown.
"Boy, put it on your head and run around the yard!" The attendant said with a sneer.
The little tiger tooth was frightened, and he was pushed to the center of the school field by someone wearing a feather crown.
"Hey, why don't you run yet?" Prince Gong wound his arrows and aimed at the little tiger tooth in the center of the school field, "If you don't run again, I'll shoot you now!" ”
Wu Feng looked at the young man in a daze, opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it again.
"Boring people, what's the use of leaving you!" The corners of his mouth curled and he smiled contemptuously.
My heart suddenly burst into my mind, and I hurriedly yelled at Little Huya: "Run-"
With my shout, a feathered arrow slammed off the string and shot out towards the little tiger's teeth. The boy remained motionless as if he had been nailed to the ground by something, and watched as the feathered arrow plunged into his throat.
With a thud, he fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his throat and mouth. His eyes were wide open in fear, and his body twitched violently, but after a few moments he stopped moving. He died, in the inexplicable farce of the crown prince. The boy who had been talking to me just now was turned into a bloody corpse.
Two of the prince's retinue walked over and carried the body out of front of me with expressionless faces.
"Hey, this kid is so boring. Quick, find me another one! I want to explain the rules of this competition to General Wu. ”
"No need, thank you, Prince." Wu Feng raised his hand to stop the entourage who wanted to continue to arrest people, "The prince wants the minister to shoot the long feather on the runner's crown?" ”
"Hahaha, smart! But your target is the people I sent, and Yu Di's target is yours, how about it? ”
"Good!" Wu Feng replied.
Since Xiao Huya was shot in public by the crown prince, two flames lit in Gong Shixi's eyes, and he took a step forward impulsively, but I grabbed his sleeve.
Tall and a little less flexible, such a challenge was not for him. But if it were me...... I glanced at the prince, and a thought flashed in my heart, and before I could catch it, the person had already walked out: "The maid is willing to wear this crown!" ”
My words really startled Wu Feng, and even the prince Yan showed surprise on his face. However, he quickly regained his composure and laughed loudly: "Interesting, she is indeed an interesting beauty, and it is not in vain that I have spent all this effort for you." Come on, bring Cao Nu in for me! I'd like to see who is more beautiful with this crown. ”
The crown prince was in a good mood for a while, but I didn't have to look at it, and I knew that Wu Feng beside him must be eager to eat me now.
I humbly avoided Wu Feng's gaze and silently tied the feather crown. The feather on its head is more than two feet long, and if a person moves slightly, it will sway from side to side with the wind. If you want to hit it, in addition to accurate archery, correct prediction is also important.
When I tied the feather crown, I saw a beautiful woman dressed in a bright peach-colored curly robe, supported by the temple people, walking slowly to the side of the prince. The prince took her into his arms with one hand, and became intimate as if no one was around. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Na Liren did not feel the slightest embarrassment, but leaned down in the arms of the prince and smiled.
"Master, can I start the competition now?" Yu Di, who had been silent, suddenly asked.
"Heh, Yu Di is in a hurry. Okay, Cao Nu, put this crown on quickly. ”
The crown prince took the feather crown from the hands of his entourage and handed it to Cao Nu.
"What is this?" The woman said suspiciously.
The crown prince explained the cause and effect to Na Liren, and Na Liren's face changed instantly, and her pale and frightened appearance looked a little familiar.
Oh, it turned out to be her!
The beauty in front of her turned out to be the slave girl Mi Cao that Gongzi Li bought from the slave trader that day. Thinking that she must be a beauty like a flower, delicate and gorgeous, Dr. Lou was reluctant to enjoy it himself, so he transferred her to the prince.
Although Mi Cao was reluctant in every way, he did not dare to disobey the order of the crown prince, so he could only reluctantly put on the feather crown.
I smiled at her, but she turned her head violently. Last time, Gongzi Li exchanged her for innocence for me. Today, because of me, she has to do a live target again, and I am afraid that I will never be friends with her.
I walked up to Yu Di and whispered, "Later, can the archers be sure that the little girl is safe?" ”
Yu Di didn't expect me to talk to him, turned his head to look at me, and said coldly: "I won't hurt the noble girl." ”
"Oh, that's for the best. The prince wants me, and you hurt the person he wants, I'm afraid that neither the general nor he will spare you. I looked ahead and said lightly. The plan to attack the enemy, attack the heart first, I will not let go of all opportunities to disturb Yu Di's mood.
"General Wu, come first! I will beat the drum for you, and within ten rings the arrow will go off the string, and the one with the shortest feather left on the crown of feathers wins. A diminutive man walked up to a leather drum in the southwest corner of the school yard and began to beat the drum.
With a "bang", Wu Feng had already wound up the arrow, and Mi Cao also picked up the corner of his skirt and ran out. She kept looking back at Wu Feng as she ran, and unspeakable fear was written all over her face. The blue feathers on her head swayed from side to side because of this.
Wu Feng's eyes were half-squinted like a quietly lurking beast, he was waiting for an opportunity, the most appropriate time, a certain one-hit opportunity.
"Knock, knock, knock", the drum sounded three more times, Mi Cao quickly ran to the courtyard wall, she was slightly stunned and wanted to turn, just between the lightning and flint, Wu Feng's arrow had already grazed the crown and flew over, cutting off a bird feather.
Mi Cao collapsed to the ground in fright before he could scream, and the crowd burst into thunderous cheers.
Soon someone helped Mi Cao down, and the feather crown on her head was also presented.
"Stupid woman!" The prince glanced at the feather crown and cursed in a low voice, his face very ugly.
"Ah Shi, come here!" Wu Feng put down his bow and arrows and called, and I had no choice but to move in front of him. Wu Feng looked down at me and said softly, "When Yu Di shoots arrows later, don't run around." If you stand still, with his archery, I'm sure he won't hurt you. ”
Standing still? Doesn't he want to win?
"Did you hear that? Promise me! ”
"Don't you want to win?" I pressed the emotion in my heart and asked softly.
"I want your peace. Besides, in today's situation, wouldn't it be better to have no wins and no losses? Wu Feng looked at me and smiled.
"Hmm." He's right, maybe a draw is the best in today's game.
When I returned to Yu Di, the crown prince was explaining something to him, and when he saw me coming, he patted Yu Di on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Don't let me down!" Then, he turned to me and smiled, "Please, little beauty!" ”
When I had reached fifteen paces, the first beat of the drum had already sounded, and Yudira aimed a full bow at the feathers on my head. Just like Wu Feng explained before, I didn't run, just stood in place and looked directly at Yu Di. Yu Di frowned, as if asking why I didn't run?
We remained in a stalemate until the drum beat the seventh.
"Knock", another drum beat. But unlike before, Yu Di's hand with the bow sank suddenly, and he actually aimed a cold arrow at my chest!
I was shocked, but my feet felt as if they had been poured with copper water, and I couldn't move.
Seeing that Yu Di's arrow was about to be shot, my left knee suddenly felt a sharp pain, and the whole person suddenly fell to the ground.
The arrow flew against my forehead.
"Ah Shi-" A moon-white figure rushed up.
The burning pain of my forehead being cut by the arrows, and the back of my head hitting the ground was not light, but these were no more than the fear in my heart, and in the moment I was almost face to face with death.
Wu Feng carefully held me in his arms, and his breath was chaotic.
The order Yu Di received from the prince at the last moment was actually - kill me!
