Chapter 169: Reward
Xiao San suddenly saw a person, and that person was Xiao San's father's subordinate, General Zeng.
General Zeng was sitting in the upper position and watching this archery competition with several other generals, and he was also fascinated by it. Xiao San told Ding Xiang about this major discovery, and Ding Xiang looked at General Zeng, and then turned his head to look at Xiao San.
"Now there is only one way, that is, you go to the competition and attract General Zeng's attention, maybe he will recognize you."
Xiao San felt that what Lilac said was very reasonable, just at this time, the winner of the previous game was looking for the next opponent, Xiao San rushed forward without the slightest hesitation.
The winner is a veteran who has won seven in a row, which shows how good his archery skills and experience are.
He saw a hairy boy come up and test his archery with him, and couldn't help laughing, and said: "Where did you come from, you dare to come up and test my archery, if you don't want you to lose ugly, go back to your mother to drink milk now, hahaha......"
The veteran's words caused laughter, and everyone was shouting for Xiao San to hurry up, but Xiao San smiled indifferently and said, "Oh? Is it? Does anyone rule that children can't compete?"
After speaking, he picked up his bow and arrow and raised it to the veteran, "Without further ado, let's start." The veteran wanted to say something, but was blocked by this sentence, so he had to pick up a bow and arrow to match. Xiao San successfully attracted the attention of General Zeng, who was sitting above, and General Zeng carefully looked at Xiao San's appearance, words and deeds, and always felt familiar, but he couldn't remember it.
The first to shoot an arrow was a veteran, and he was just about to shoot out, but was interrupted by Xiao San: "How about a game to decide the winner?" Do you dare to play?" The veteran replied, "Yes, you can wait to be my subordinate!"
The veteran had a serious expression on his face, and it was clear that he was desperate to win. Lilac, who was standing on the sidelines, didn't seem to be in a hurry, because she believed that Xiao San would definitely win. The veteran holds a bow in his left hand and an arrow in his right hand, ready to shoot, thinking to himself, "I want to win the red heart, I want the red heart." ”
Listening to the sound of "boom", the arrow shot steadily on the target, but did not hit the bull's-eye. The veteran scolded secretly, blaming himself for not shooting well. In fact, the bullseye shot by the veteran was only a little bit away. Then it was Xiao San's turn, Xiao San rested the arrow on the string, clamped the end of the arrow with two fingers, pulled it back hard, and aimed at the arrow target, he closed his eyes, and as soon as his hand was released, the arrow flew out. Everyone present exclaimed, "Hit the bull's-eye!" Lilac rushed forward and looked at Xiao San happily.
"I knew you were going to win!"
Xiao San still kept smiling: "It seems that I didn't disappoint you!"
Xiao San looked at the veteran, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth......
"The ultimate winner of this archery competition is this young man!"
Someone in the crowd took the lead.
Although the veteran was still not convinced, the rules of this game were set by himself, and the person who lost was also himself, so he couldn't say anything more, so he had to admit defeat.
"I can't imagine that the contemptible person has no eyes, the disrespectful words just now, I hope the young man will not go to his heart, this game, the contemptible person will lose convincingly." The veteran said slowly, with a little helplessness......
Xiao San didn't think so, he knew that the veteran would say this, but polite words still couldn't be avoided.
"It's just a chance to win, and it's not as good as you think."
Xiao San won the archery competition this time, but the soldiers present were shocked, they didn't believe that the sharpshooter they had admired for a long time actually lost to a yellow-haired boy, which was still unbelievable.
Everyone present couldn't help but feel sorry for the veteran, and sighed one after another.
General Zeng naturally knew that Xiao San had won, so he summoned Xiao San after the crowd gradually faded away.
Xiao San and Ding Xiang went to General Zeng's military tent together. In addition to General Zeng, there were also people in the military tent who thought they didn't know the soldiers, and the first one in his line was a general lieutenant. Of course, Dawa is also in General Zeng's military tent.
General Zeng saw Xiao San and Ding Xiang coming in, and hurriedly said politely, "Two young heroes, please take a seat."
After Xiao San and Ding Xiang thanked each other, they both sat down.
"Someone, bring the wine and helmet quickly."
General Zeng instructed, and the soldiers who received the order hurriedly brought a jar of wine and something covered with a red cloth, which should be the helmet in General Zeng's mouth. The wine looked like a jar of good wine from the outside, and you could smell the mellow aroma of wine from a long distance. Dawa is a person who likes to drink, he smelled the wine and sighed: "General, this is really a good wine!"
General Zeng said: "It's not a good wine, but it's also something that can be taken in the barracks, and this wine is also very strong."
When the soldiers filled everyone in the room with wine, General Zeng raised his glass,
"Come, let's congratulate this young man on becoming a new generation of marksman!"
"A new generation of marksmen?" Lilac asked with a puzzled face.
"In our place, there is an archery competition held every year, and every year the winner will be called a marksman by the soldiers, and the one who has just been defeated by this young man has been a marksman for three years in a row." said the general adjutant.
"Yes, the young man can be described as a hero out of a young man. By the way, dare to be a young man's surname. General Zeng looked at Xiao San.
"General Zeng is polite, the contemptible surname is Xiao, General Zeng can call me Xiao San."
Shaw? General Zeng was a little puzzled, and a question arose in his heart, could it be his son? But it was quickly dispelled, after all, there are more people with the same surname in this world.
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it so much, hurry up and taste this wine, it's very fragrant!"
Xiao San was reluctant to drink, but he couldn't live up to General Zeng's kindness, so he had to drink hard. Yes! It's so spicy, I feel that my throat is very hot, and after only one sip, Xiao San's face turned red, and Lilac only drank a little before putting down the wine glass, although it was only a sip
General Zeng saw that Xiao San and Lilac hadn't drunk much, but because they were still young, it was not easy to ask them to drink more.
Putting down the wine glass, General Zeng greeted the guard, and the guard brought the helmet covered with red cloth to Xiao San.
"Xiao Shaoxia, this is a reward that sharpshooters will have every year, please accept it." General Zeng said with a smile.
Xiao San and General Zeng are not related to each other, not to mention drinking his wine, he just won a game, and General Zeng will give him a reward, and he will not be rewarded for nothing, of course Xiao San can't accept it. Before the words of refusal could be spoken, the voice of the general lieutenant covered the military tent.
"General Zeng, he just won the marksman, and he replaced the position of the marksman, and the competition just now was not fair at all!" The general vice general was a little red-eyed, and General Zeng gave the helmet to Xiao San, which was obvious.
"Oh? Where is it unfair? Please tell me more about it. ”
"The marksman has been competing with Xiao Shaoxia for a long time before he competes with Xiao Shaoxia, and he will be a little tired more or less, so it is not impossible to be distracted in the competition with Xiao Shaoxia." The general seemed to be very unconvinced, and Xiao San replaced the marksman.
"It's like you said, but the competition is over, so what should I do?" General Zeng seemed to be a little displeased, his brows furrowed slightly, and he glanced at the chief lieutenant general.
The general did not take General Zeng's frown seriously, still
"It's better to let me compete with Xiao Shaoxia, if Xiao Shaoxia wins me, I will no longer be dissatisfied, but if I win, you Xiao Shaoxia will not be qualified to take the helmet!" The latter sentence seems to come out of an angry roar, which is a little scary.
Xiao San is also a smart person, so he naturally understands that the general wants this helmet, it seems that this helmet is worth a lot of money, and General Zeng is really generous.
Xiao San didn't speak, and Lilac didn't speak. After being silent for about three seconds, General Zeng eased his atmosphere and said: "Since the results of this competition have come out, it is useless to talk about them, and please dispel this idea from the chief vice general."
When the general lieutenant heard General Zeng say this, he knew that no matter what he said, he would not change General Zeng's decision, so he had to give up.
