Chapter 17: Bow and Condor Shooting
A group of black eagles pecked the white eagle to death and did not stop, and rushed to a hole on the cliff, only to see the mouth of the hole stretched out the heads of two small white eagles, it turned out that there were two white eagle cubs in the hole, the black eagle was to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
"Daddy, aren't you going to shoot fast? If you don't do it, the little white eagle will be pecked to death, Daddy, you will shoot the black eagle to death! Seeing that the two white eagle cubs were about to be pecked to death by the black eagle, Guo Jing and Hua Zheng were very anxious, and Hua Zheng was even more crying and screaming, and then turned his head and said to Guo Jing beside him: "Guo Jing, Guo Jing, you see, the white eagle gave birth to a pair of little eagles, why don't we know?" Guo Jing, don't you also know how to shoot arrows, shoot arrows to save the little white eagle! ”
Guo Jing was worried and anxious, his face was full of embarrassment, it was not that he didn't want to save the little white eagle, but he came in a hurry this time, and he didn't carry a bow and arrows at all, otherwise he would have shot arrows to help the white eagle before, how could he wait until now? And his surname was Lu Du, and he didn't think of borrowing a pair of bows and arrows from others for a while, so he could only watch here anxiously.
Temujin took the opportunity to observe the carving to teach his son, it was when he was in a good mood, seeing that his daughter was so anxious that tears fell, he smiled slightly, took a hard bow and an iron arrow to aim at the black eagle on the cliff, "whoosh", the arrow was like electricity, and it was shot into the body of a black eagle, shooting it to death on the high cliff, and everyone immediately cheered in unison when they saw this.
"You're going to shoot." After Temujin hit the arrow, he did not continue to open the bow, but handed the bow and arrow to his third son, Ogedei, but took the opportunity to consider his son's archery skills.
Ogedai took his bow and shot one with an arrow. Immediately afterwards, Temujin sent his bow and arrows to the mine, and the mine also shot one. Seeing that Temujin and the two princes had shot through, the Mongol generals and guards who came with them also bent their bows and shot arrows. It's just that at this time, the black eagles on the cliff saw that the momentum was not right and fled, but it was not as easy to shoot as before, as the black eagles flapped their wings and flew high, the sharp arrows shot by everyone were also strong crossbows, and the strength had weakened, and they often fell down before they touched the eagle body.
Temujin was also interested at this time, and shouted: "There is a reward for shooting." ”
Guo Jing's archery master, the archer Zhebei, deliberately wanted Guo Jing to show his skills, came to Guo Jing's side, picked up his own strong bow and handed it to Guo Jing, and commanded in a low voice: "Kneel down and shoot the neck of the black eagle." ”
Guo Jing has always been obedient, and when he heard this, he immediately took the bow and arrow, knelt on his right knee, held the iron bow firmly with his left hand, and did not tremble at all, and his right hand was lucky, and pulled a hard bow of about 200 catties away. He has practiced martial arts with the six monsters of Jiangnan for ten years, although the superior martial arts have not yet glimpsed the Tang Ao, but the strength of the arms, the accuracy of the eyesight, but it is extraordinary, seeing the two black eagle wings flying from the left, the left arm moved slightly, aiming at the neck of the black eagle, the five fingers of the right hand are released, the bow is really bent like a full moon, the arrow is like a meteor, and in an instant, a black shadow is drawn into the sky.
A black eagle let out a terrible long roar, and was immediately pierced by a sharp arrow through the neck, and the strength of this arrow did not wane, and then shot into the belly of another black eagle flying above the black eagle of the middle arrow, and an arrow pierced through the double eagle, falling sharply from a high altitude. The rest of the black eagles did not dare to stay any longer, and scattered and fled.
Seeing Guo Jing show his stunt of killing two birds with one stone, everyone present couldn't help but applaud in unison, even Ling Muyun's eyes couldn't help but light up. Although he had known that Guo Jing's archery skills were exquisite, he was still deeply shocked to see it with his own eyes. If this skill is used against people, even ordinary martial arts masters may not be spared. Now Guo Jing has only learned some foreign kung fu from the six monsters in Jiangnan, and he can only use foreign strength, and after he practices superior internal skills in the future, won't the power of the divine arrow be even more terrifying? At that time, I'm afraid that even the top masters will have to drink hatred under his arrows if they are not careful!
"In this era of cold weapons, this archery method is still very useful, if you practice it well, you will be a sniper in the era of cold weapons! Since they have come to the Mongolian steppe this time, they can't come in vain, and find an opportunity to learn archery skills, just to make up for the lack of long-range attack methods. ”
Just as Ling Muyun's thoughts were spinning there, Hua Zheng whispered to Guo Jing: "Don't hurry up and dedicate the double eagle to my father." ”
Guo Jing picked up the double eagle that was about to fall to the ground according to his words, ran to the Temujin horse with both hands, knelt on one knee, and held it high above the top, because of his clumsy words, Guo Jing didn't say anything, but everyone present understood what he meant.
Temujin's favorite in his life was a good general and a warrior, and when he saw Guo Jing's arrows penetrating the two eagles, he liked it very much. You must know that the northern eagle eagle is extraordinary, the wings are spread out to be more than a zhang long, the feathers are as hard as iron, and they can pounce down, and they can grab the whole pony and big sheep into the air, and the end is extremely powerful, even when the tiger and leopard encounter the eagle, they have to dodge, and it is a first-class powerful thing on the grassland.
Therefore, the warriors who are good at shooting eagles on the grassland often like to show off their martial arts by shooting eagle eagles, and those who can shoot down eagle eagles are called eagle shooters and are highly respected. And Guo Jing not only shot down the eagle, but also killed two birds with one stone, which is extremely rare. So Temu's personal soldiers put away the double eagles, and praised Guo Jing with a smile: "Good boy, your archery skills are very good!" ”
Guo Jing smiled and said, "It was all taught to me by Master Jebe." ”
Jebe was the one who taught Guo Jing archery, and he was also a general under Temujin. In fact, in Mongolian, Jebe is the meaning of the archer, not his real name, but he is famous for his archery, and the Mongolians call him Jebe, after a long time, his real name is forgotten, and he simply changed his name to Jebe.
Temujin laughed and said, "The master is Jebe, and the apprentice is also Jebe. ”
At this time, I heard Tuo Lei say to Temujin: "Daddy, you said that you will be rewarded for shooting." I replied with two birds with one stone, what do you reward him? ”
"Hahaha, you can reward anything." At this time, Temujin was in a happy mood, so he let out a big talk.
Tuo Lei said: "Can you really reward anything?" ”
"It's really a child's words, can your father and I be a hero, and still deceive children?" Temujin laughed when he heard Tuolei's words, lowered his head and asked Guo Jing: "Guo Jing, you say, what do you want?" ”
Guo Jing has lived according to Temujin for many years. The generals liked him for being simple and kind, and did not discriminate because he was a Han Chinese, and at this time, seeing the Great Khan's expression was very happy, everyone looked at Guo Jing, hoping that he could be rewarded.
Even Ling Muyun also shifted his attention, wanting to know what reward Guo Jing received, although he said that he had read the original book in his previous life and was probably familiar with the plot of the original work, but after all, he did not memorize the entire original work, the memory of those important plots was quite profound, and some innocuous plots were vague.
I listened to Guo Jing and said: "The Great Khan treats me so well, my mother has everything, so you don't have to give it to me anymore." ”
Temujin smiled and said, "You kid has filial piety, and always remembers his mother first. So what do you want for yourself? Say whatever you want, don't be afraid. ”
Guo Jing groaned slightly, knelt down on his knees in front of Temujin's horse, and said, "I don't want anything myself, I just want to ask for one thing on behalf of others." ”
Temujin smiled and said, "Say, what's the matter? ”
Guo Jing said: "Wang Han's grandson Dushi is evil and bad, and Hua Zheng must suffer after marrying him." I beg the Great Khan not to marry Hua Zheng to him. ”
Ling Muyun shook his head secretly, this Guo Jing is really stupid and cute, Wang Han is Temujin's father-in-law, and he is also the most powerful Khan king on the grassland, Temujin married his daughter Hua Zheng to Wang Han's grandson obviously out of political considerations, how could this political marriage be changed because of the plea of an insignificant young man?
Sure enough, Temujin couldn't help but be slightly stunned after listening to Guo Jing's words, and then laughed and said, "It's really a child's words, how can it be done?" Well, I'll reward you with a treasure. ”
As he spoke, Temujin untied a short knife from his waist and handed it to Guo Jing. The Mongol generals who were with Temujin were all appreciative and envious when they saw it. It turned out that this was a saber that Temujin loved very much, and he had used it to kill countless enemies, and if he had not spoken it before, he would never have given it so easily.
Guo Jing thanked the reward, took the short knife and played with it in his hand. Ling Muyun peeked at it, only to see that the scabbard of the short knife was made of gold, and a golden tiger head was cast at the end of the handle, which was hideous and powerful, although the blade was hidden in the sheath and never exposed, but since it was Temujin's saber, it must be extremely sharp, otherwise it would not have been worn by a heroic figure like Temujin who often came to battle.
A thought suddenly surged in Ling Muyun's heart: "I remember that in the original book, Guo Jing was named the Golden Sword Horse by Temujin, wouldn't it be because of this knife that he got this title?" ”
I listened to Temujin's words: "Guo Jing, this is my portable sword, and I will reward you today, and in the future, you should use my golden sword to kill the enemy for me." ”
Guo Jing responded: "Yes." ”
Hua Zheng suddenly cried bitterly, jumped on horseback, and galloped away, but because he saw that Temujin rejected Guo Jing's request, apparently insisting that she marry Wang Han's grandson, he was extremely disappointed, so he cried bitterly and left.
Temu's heart was as good as iron, but when he saw his daughter so sad, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, sighed slightly, fell off his horse and returned to the camp, and the Mongolian princes and generals hurriedly followed. The other Mongols who had come to see the excitement saw that the carving fight had died down and that the Great Khan had gone, so they no longer stayed here, and rode back on their own horses.
