Chapter 65: Pulling the bowstring
Early the next morning, I heard Lan Qi talking half-asleep, and I vaguely heard that I was still asleep or something. I sat up, rubbed my eyes, and asked her in a loud voice, "Lanki?" What's wrong? ”
Lan Qi hurriedly ran in and said, "Gege, it's the Fourteenth Master." ”
My brain immediately cleared up, and I opened my eyes and asked, "Fourteenth Master?" What is he doing here? "Running to quarrel with me so early, you must take revenge if you have the chance!
"The Fourteenth Master said to tell you to get up quickly, otherwise he won't teach you." Lan Qi said with some confusion.
Teach me? What to teach me? I slammed my head and said, "Hurry up, hurry up!" I've got to get up! ”
Lan Qi didn't know why, but she quickly helped me wash my face, I picked out a flag outfit that was easy to move, and combed a simple hairstyle. Running out of the big tent, the fourteenth master was waiting impatiently at the door, I hurriedly accompanied the smiling face and said, "Fourteenth brother is early!" ”
He glared at me, "It's early?" I've been waiting for you for a long time! ”
"Brother Fourteen, I must get up early tomorrow! Let's go? "Damn it, it's so fierce!
He snorted, lifted his feet and left, and I hurried to follow. The Fourteenth Master was tall, long-legged, and walked fast, and I had to trot after him, thinking in my heart about how I would fix him in the future.
When I arrived at the venue that had been prepared in advance, the Fourteenth Master grabbed a bow and handed it to me, and said to me, "You can practice drawing the bow first, don't be bitter!" His triumphant look made me grit my teeth when I saw it. But I couldn't help it, I asked him to teach me. I had to endure the unhappiness in my heart, raise the bow with my left hand, and pull the string with my right hand.
Then I heard a "pop" and I was beaten. I turned my head and stared at the Fourteenth Master, who looked at me condescendingly and said, "What are you looking at?" The right hand is raised too high, do it again! ”
I took a deep breath, raised my bow again, and pulled the string with my right hand. It took a lot of effort to pull the bow, well, I admit, it was harder than I thought.
"Hard! You can't even pull the bow, do you still want to hunt? ”
I struggled to keep the bow open, and my fingers hurt from the bowstring. Then, this morning's time was immersed in "pop", "no", and "restart".
When it was time to switch to lunch, the Fourteenth Master finally said kindly: "That's it for today, it's too hot in the afternoon, don't study!" With that, he turned around and left, and I handed the bow in my hand to the guard, and looked down at my right hand, which had been strewn with blood......
I silently walked back to the big tent, Lan Qi was looking at the door, and when she saw me coming back, she shouted happily: "Gege! ”
"What's wrong? Lanki? I asked listlessly.
"The Thirteenth Master came here just after you left in the morning, and you're still waiting inside."
I nodded, opened the curtain, and saw the Thirteenth Master sitting on a small chair looking at me with a smile.
The Thirteenth Master only smiled when he saw that I didn't enter the door, and couldn't help asking, "Silly girl, what are you laughing at?" I shook my head, lowered the curtain and went into the tent, took an apple from the fruit bowl with my left hand, took a bite, sat down next to him and asked, "Have you been waiting for me here all morning?" What's the matter? ”
The Thirteenth Master said casually: "It's nothing, don't you want to learn archery, I'll send you something." As he spoke, he took out a small bag from his bosom, and when I opened it, it contained a beautiful jasper wrench and a cowhide finger guard with good toughness. Before I could finish admiring it, my right hand was suddenly grabbed, I looked up in fright, and the Thirteenth Master took my hand, frowned and asked, "How did it get like this?" I saw that the blood on my right hand had stained five fingers red, and I hurriedly wanted to withdraw my hand, but the thirteenth master grabbed it tightly, and I couldn't break free, so I had to say in a sneering manner: "I went to draw the bow without bringing anything with me, and it turned out like this." ”
"Don't you know how to cry out in pain when you're like this?" The Thirteenth Master said angrily.
I shook my head and said, "It's okay, it just looks a little scary, it doesn't hurt very much!" Didn't you send me a finger guard, and I won't be like this again when I start wearing it tomorrow! Don't worry! I looked at him with a smile. The thirteenth master still frowned and said, "The fourteenth is looking at you like this?" Won't he see if you don't have anything on your hand and you'll get hurt? I'm going to find him! As I said that, he was about to stand up, but I hurriedly pulled him and said, "Don't go!" I'm fine! ”
"What do you mean by something? Is it something wrong to have your fingers choked by the bowstring? He shouted at me in a hurry, and when he finished shouting, he felt that he was a little excessive, and opened his mouth without saying a word.
