Chapter 218: Thick Armor and Heavy Bow

Chapter 218: Thick Armor and Heavy Bow

In competitions such as the Olympic Games, the athletes' bows are quite high-tech products, with sights to determine the position, allowing the installation of stabilizers or flight shocks to ensure the smooth flight of the arrows, clickers and balance bars to assist the shooter, and the side pads of the arrows are so professional and meticulous that the ancient archers could not understand them at all......

In fact, there are better equipment, the clicker can be replaced with an electric bow indicator, the sight can be equipped with prisms, lenses and other amplifiers, and the level and the corresponding electronic components are even more excessive. 【】Also for aiming, the bowstring can also be equipped with a "peephole......

All in all, all modifications of modern bows and arrows are in pursuit of extreme precision. The corresponding power requirements are much smaller, basically as long as you can shoot through a target as much as 70 meters and 90 meters away. If needed, the Kyudo Federation could even advocate changing the hardness of the target so that the carbon arrow could pierce the target with less gravitational potential energy.

The athletes present used such high-tech bows and arrows, they had seen traditional bows and arrows, used traditional bows and arrows, and even learned the methods and principles of using such bows and arrows, but they rarely saw others shoot with traditional bows and arrows.

Shoot 10 arrows in 25 seconds, which is an absolute stupid performance in modern bow and arrow competitions.

But She Lei's performance was amazing. This is slightly faster than his usual speed, but the accuracy has not decreased, which can be described as an extraordinary performance.

He was also confident that such a performance had reached the limit, and answered Wu Jingjing's question with a smug smile, and raised his head proudly and said, "I am a second-level student of the Chen Martial Arts Gym. ”

The Chinese in Southeast Asia are very familiar with the martial arts hall, and she immediately asked, "Who is the director of the martial arts hall?" ”

"The curator is Chen Yi." When She Lei said his name, his legs straightened unconsciously.

"Chen Yi." Wu Jingjing's memory is excellent, and her mind suddenly conjures up the handsome young Chinese, who has a considerable study of antiques, and who presided over the trading of securities companies in Malaysia - and now the profits are more than twice as much, let alone a billion dollars, and the profits are still rising...... It's a pity that the rich investment banks were unwilling to take risks, and the investors were also suspicious, and he was the only one who found the Sultan of Malaysia...... He's also a quirky merchant who wants to buy pure wood pulp, which is less striking than the previous highlight.

She thought about it for a long time, and the male athletes around her asked again and again: "Jingjing, Jingjing." ”

There are a lot of Malays who learn Mandarin, and his intonation is basically normal.

Wu Jingjing came to her senses, turned around disapprovingly, and didn't answer him.

It's just that her assistant came over, stopped the male athlete and said, "Mizan, please call Wu Jingjing or Miss Wu." ”

In this way, She Lei noticed Mizan and found that it was a slightly handsome young man of the same age as himself, and his heart was very vigilant.

Chasing beauties is really difficult

"I'm going over the mountains"

She Lei cheered himself up.

At this time, Wu Jingjing ended her memories and asked with a smile, "Can you do it again?" ”

"Of course, I'll show you my stunt, 20 shots in a row." She Lei was drenched in sweat, but from the perspective of sports, it was just the end of the warm-up. He wiped his forehead, asked for another pot of arrows, and said, "Remove my armor." ”

"Your martial arts hall is quite pompous......"

Before Mizan's words fell, he heard a "bang", and hundreds of pounds of leather armor fell on the wooden floor of the gymnasium.

It is said to be leather armor, but the thickness of the skin of the animals in the Western Continent, especially the density of the outer skin, is almost comparable to that of steel and entertainment stars, especially the weight is excessive, full of sunlight and rich vegetation, giving birth to too many wasted energy. They have thick skin, eat dozens of times the fresh and fat grass of cattle and sheep, leisurely walk in the forest, and when they encounter ordinary bow and arrow shooting, they will scratch their backs without pain......

The skin that was finally peeled off was simply painful to wear on a normal person, not to mention She Lei, even a naked bear with three poles of physical skills, and he didn't dare to say that he could move freely in armor, but the armor itself was really eye-catching, especially the huge sound.

Mizan took a step forward, stretched out his hand and smiled, "Armor that sounds so heavy......"

Two bowstrings stopped in front of his fingers.

Li Changning and Sang Chengqiang held the bow in one hand, pressed the short stick on their thighs with the other, and said in unison: "Keep your distance." ”

This is something that has been trained for a long time, has standard procedures, and belongs to the type that cannot be violated.

Mizan looked at him, disappointed, and withdrew his hand, saying, "It's just an armor." ”

"How much does it weigh?" Wu Jingjing asked curiously.

She wanted to know under what burden the other party had shot those 10 arrows.

Li Changning and Sang Chengqiang glanced at each other, and before they could speak, the impatient She Lei said first: "75 kilograms, it's a small meaning." ”

Wu Jingjing made a rough calculation and exclaimed, "165 pounds? ”

"You're carrying 165 pounds of archery on your back?" Everyone gathered around. With such a large weight, it would be too bullying for an athlete to be able to carry it on his back, and to do the action of leading the string after carrying it.

"What a brutal training."

"This kind of martial arts hall should be very famous."

"Does archery require weight training?"

"They were carrying bows and arrows that seemed to have real lethal power......"

There was gossip around, which made She Lei dizzy when he heard it.

He decided not to participate in it, but only half-knelt on the ground, and placed the feather arrows in the quiver in front of him, one by one, in the direction of the main feather.

A line of 20 feathered arrows, with a long hardwood body, is pleasant and peaceful. Sharp bone tips, intoxicating and surrendering. Brightly colored feathers, intoxicating and exciting.

The voice in my ears naturally became lower and disappeared.

She Lei had no distractions, gently adjusted his posture, put on a feather arrow, buckled the tail of the arrow with only his thumb, and then raised the bow, led the string, aimed, and loosened the string, all in one go. I saw 20 arrows, almost connected together, and flew out.

The target 70 meters away made a ping-pong sound.

50 minutes, 20 arrows, this is almost the limit of She Lei.

When all the bone arrows hit the target, She Lei was already sweating, and beads the size of beans hung on his face. He didn't care about this, and asked Wu Jingjing first, "How is it?" ”

"That's good."

Wu Jingjing assured that there was nothing false in what she said. Not to mention modern archers, the ancient English longbowmen, 1 minute of rapid fire is 12 arrows, and the hit rate is required to exceed 90%. Although that was only the standard of a soldier, the English longbowmen of the 15th century were time-tested soldiers, trained from small to the point of twisting their spines, far better than modern times in terms of time and intensity. And this martial arts hall student, it is indeed not easy to speed up by 75% on this basis.

Mizan was also speechless in surprise, so he could only say: "You are drawing a bow in the Mediterranean, but there is a little difference." ”

"It's a little better." She Lei barely managed to move his physical movements, raised his legs and feet for two or three minutes, and then straightened up and said to Wu Jingjing: "We usually train bows and arrows, but this is the first time I have seen a professional player. ”

He really didn't have anything to talk to, so he had to talk about common hobbies.

A group of athletes smiled awkwardly, their accuracy must be higher, but seeing such a cool 20 arrows, they used a bow with countless accessories to aim for 30 seconds, no one was embarrassed to come out and show ugliness, after all, it was not a competition, and the gap between several rings was not interesting.

Mizan rolled his eyes and asked, "Can I use your bow and arrows?" ”

He felt that with such a fast rate of fire, there must be something special about the bow.

She Lei hesitated, and in order to show his generosity, he handed it to Mizan.

The latter is in the hand, and the first feeling is light.

Although it is a longbow made of hardwood, the weight of a piece of hardwood is less than 10 kilograms. The bow and arrow in the men's competition are made of all-metal materials and have various external plug-ins, weighing up to 22 kilograms.

He smiled to himself, tugged at the bowstring slightly, and said, "It's a single bow, why don't you use a recurve bow or a compound bow?" ”

She Lei shook his head, he was looking at Wu Jingjing, too lazy to pay attention to this Malay boy.

Mizan added, "The bowstring is made of animal tendons?" Your curator must have a great interest in returning to the ancients, it's too wasteful, you can achieve the same effect with synthetic fibers, well, the wood is also a very good wood heart, a little bit can't see the variety, but the texture is very hard......"

Looking at it, his competitive heart faded, but he became interested in this Chen Clan Martial Arts Hall. There are many people who like to play with retro weapons, and some people will even buy broken armor weapons, melt or repair them into their favorites, and it is normal to spend 100,000 dollars. Now this pair of bows and arrows, it seems that they are made according to the ancient method, try to find similar ancient materials, 100,000 US dollars are not necessarily, but 30,000 US dollars are indispensable.

Mizan looked at the same kind of similar bows and arrows worn by the other students, and couldn't help but think, could these be the defective products that were discarded to make a superb bow?

So, he couldn't help but ask, "What kind of bow and arrow did your curator use?" ”

"A little bigger than mine." She Lei is talking about the four-stone bow, which is nearly 400 catties of pulling force, which is equivalent to the level of divine power in terms of the weakness of modern people.

Mizan thought that his conjecture was correct, and couldn't help but sigh and pull the string: "It seems that he must have designed a good bow for himself." ”

Because he was talking, his spirit was not concentrated enough, and when he pulled the string, he didn't pull it.

Although Mizan immediately lunged down and raised his bow to deadlift, he still pulled it into a full bow, but all the people present were playing with bows and arrows, and no one could see it.

There was a burst of chuckles, and the sassy Mizan couldn't stay still, so he put down his bow and left.

Wu Jingjing showed a little surprise, raised it and tried it, it turned out to be a strong bow of more than 100 pounds. That's pretty much the limit for her.

Normal bow lovers are enough to show off with a 60-pound bow, and most of them are playing with a small bow of twenty or thirty pounds, and looking at a recurve bow of forty or fifty pounds - and this is equivalent to a three-bucket bow and arrow in ancient times, mostly made of bamboo. The gap between professional and non-professional soldiers is so huge, so the Eight Banners soldiers in the late Manchu Dynasty would play with bird bows all day long, and the arms they practiced with teapots could not hold big bows.

"20 shots with a 100-pound strongbow?"

Wu Jingjing felt unbelievable and said, "Your curator, are you as powerful?" ”

She Lei puffed out his chest, but soon collapsed again, and said weakly: "It's definitely much more powerful than me." ”

"How many pounds of bow does he use?"

The kind classical beauty asked, and the students' sense of secrecy was so weak that it was nothing, and the fat little fat man said first: "I saw that the curator used 4 stone bows. ”

"I've seen him use a 6-stone bow."

"6 stone bows, is it 300 kilograms of pulling force?" Wu Jingjing said in disbelief: "660 pounds? How can it be. ”

"Can he pull it all away? Don't be a crossbow. ”

"The curator can shoot 30 times with a 6-stone bow, and he will demonstrate it every time the students officially practice bowing and arrows." She Lei gestured and maintained: "The wooden shield after 30 centimeters can shoot through, we have all seen it." ”

The athletes looked at each other, and the people who exercised also stopped, looking at She Lei as if listening to a monkey show, and said with a smile: "If it's really so good, why don't you go to the Olympics." He can win weightlifting. ”

She Lei was worried about leaving a bad reputation of bragging in front of the beauties, so he said anxiously: "The curator is a student of Jiangning University, let's invite him." ”

"Please."

"We'll wait."

The athletes are practicing and attacking in groups.

Sang Chengqiang grabbed She Lei and said, "If we are like this, the curator will be unhappy." ”

"It's fine." At present, She Lei is out of the way.
