Chapter 19: Comparing Arrows

Li Siliu does not believe in evil.

He wanted to see what a good arrow a man could shoot from a man who could not even bear the pain of a blow to his arm!

Xu Wenshan drew a target on a thick tree with a knife, pointed to the two circles on it and said: "3 points for shooting the circle in the center, 1 point for shooting the outer circle, and no points for missing the target." Each person shoots 5 arrows, and the one with the most points wins. ”

Li Siliu snorted and said, "Your method is also novel." ”

He took out a few arrows and asked, "Who will come first?" ”

Xu Wenshan gestured and said, "You invite first." ”

Li Siliu was not polite, stepped forward, and was about to shoot the arrow when Xu Wenshan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.

"What's wrong again?" At this time, Li Siliu's previous good impression of Xu Wenshan was completely gone, so he was not polite at all.

Xu Wenshan said: "We are a hundred steps apart. ”

One hundred steps!

Li Siliu's eyes widened in surprise, the distance of thirty steps was already very far, and he could only achieve seven hits out of ten in fifty steps, but this kid actually said a hundred steps in one breath!

Is he afraid that he will not be completely embarrassed?

But Xu Wenshan has already begun to measure his steps, starting from the target, he walked exactly 100 steps, according to modern standards, about sixty or seventy meters, a little worse than the Olympic standard.

Lu Ze stood beside Xu Wenshan, squinted at the target in the distance, and said, "Originally, the target was the size of a carriage wheel, but now it's only as small as a rice ball!" ”

After Li Dazhuang stood on the line, he also felt that this distance was a little exaggerated. Few hunters in Luhegou are sure to shoot their bows at this distance, even if their own fathers are not necessarily sure at this distance.

Li Siliu stood in the position demarcated by Xu Wenshan, but his heart was a little more settled, because Xu Wenshan's steps were relatively small, and this distance was closer than he imagined.

But the proximity is also limited. Li Siliu estimated that at this distance, the bow and arrow had already taken an arc, and he could only hit five arrows out of ten arrows.

Li Siliu guessed that the reason why that kid dared to take such a big breath was probably to scare himself, and he speculated that at this distance, the son of the Xu family would be hit by at most one arrow out of five arrows.

Shooting the outer circle is one point, shooting the inner circle is three points, be conservative, shoot four out of five, one point per arrow, and win him steadily, this Xu Gongzi seems to have been very lucky, even if he wins 3 points, don't be afraid of him.

That's right, Li Siliu didn't believe it from the beginning, Xu Wenshan was really powerful.

For others, archery may just be a means of earning a living.

But for Li Siliu, archery is everything.

"Juan'er, I will definitely hit the tiger in the mountain, give it to you as a dowry, and then take an ox cart to your house to marry you!"

"Juan'er! Why go with that man? Could it be that the rabbit I called you is not tasty? ”

"Phew! You only know how to beat rabbits for me to eat every day, and the tigers that I said were good didn't hit me, and after so many years of marriage, I haven't even drunk a decent millet porridge, I followed him into the county government, and I can drink millet porridge every day! ”

Li Siliu shook his head and dispelled the memory that rushed into his mind.

That snowy night was his eternal pain.

Yes, his wife Li Siliu and Li Dazhuang's mother ran away with a monkey from the county government.

Li Siliu thought about it for a long time and suffered for a long time, and finally decided that the reason why she would go, in the final analysis, was because she couldn't do bowing.

If he hit a tiger, if he didn't hit a rabbit every day, his wife wouldn't have run away.

So he kept grinding, and he kept grinding...... He wants to carve the art of archery into his bones.

Don't be afraid of pain, don't be afraid of tiredness, all just to shoot the best arrow.

When he finally came to his senses, the people called him:

The first archer of Luhegou.

No one knows better than him that archery is a painful science.

Only blood and pain are the correct prostrations.

Li Siliu bent his bow and arrows, telling himself in his heart to be calm and not to be carried away by anger, maybe this kid deliberately provoked himself in order to win.

Be sure to let him know that archery is a skill that takes time and hard work to hone, and it is not something that he can win by using some crooked means.

"Whew"!

The arrow flew out and nailed to the tree.

Li Dazhuang, who was doing a notary next to him, looked at the target and shouted, "1 point." ”

Li Siliu smiled slightly, glanced at Xu Wenshan next to him, and 1 point fell into the bag steadily.

Xu Wenshan was expressionless.

Li Siliu bent his bow and shot an arrow again.

This time, the target was slightly insufficient, and the arrow landed a little higher, outside the target, and missed the target.

Li Siliu let out a long breath, calmed himself down, pursed his lips, and shot two more arrows. This time, the performance was relatively stable, one arrow hit the bull's-eye, scored 3 points, and one arrow scored 1 point.

In the last arrow, he almost entered the inner circle, but unfortunately only 0 points.

Li Siliu shook his head, not very satisfied with his performance, although one arrow hit the bull's-eye, but only 3 arrows were hit, and he scored 5 points.

At this distance, the landing point of the arrow is not concentrated, according to Xu Wenshan's rules, it can shoot 5 points, Li Siliu thinks, it is quite good.

But he is Li Siliu, he should play better.

"It's your turn."

Although Li Siliu didn't play well, he didn't think Xu Wenshan could beat him.

Xu Wenshan stepped forward, still using his special posture to shoot his arrows meticulously.

Hook the string with the thumb, let the bowstring stick on the string groove of the wrench, and the index and middle fingers are bowed, this is the most standard Chinese method!

"3 points!"

Hit the bull's-eye!

"3 points!"

Another arrow hits the bull's-eye!

Li Siliu on the side was already like ashes.

Xu Wenshan looked at Li Siliu and said, "You don't have to shoot anymore, right?" ”

The first two arrows shot 6 points, and with only 2 arrows, he had already won Li Siliu by 1 point!

What Li Siliu experienced at this moment was not anger or disappointment.

It's desperation.

It is the despair of the belief that I have carried out all my life.

"Is my shooting really as wrong as he said?" Li Siliu thought to himself, "Could it be that my insistence is all wrong?" The bowstring doesn't have to hit the arm, and the fingers don't have to be misshapen? ”

Li Siliu had doubts about his life.

What is my life for?

"Nope! Go on! Li Siliu shouted angrily, "It must have been just luck just now!" You're done cumming for me! ”
