Chapter 21 Getting What You Want

Zhou Yong said well, it is indeed not difficult to learn archery, at least it is not more difficult than relying on a driver's license.

Even if you don't learn archery, if you give him a bow, he can still shoot arrows, and those who have learned can shoot arrows better, and this better place is in the following aspects - standing, holding the bow, setting the arrow, hooking the string, pushing the bow, opening the bow, filling the bow, leaning on the position, aiming, scattering, a total of ten steps and actions.

These movements, like playing golf or tennis, have a set of tried and tested rules and techniques, these skills are not complicated, and even simpler than learning a set of broadcast gymnastics from beginning to end.

It didn't take ten minutes in total, with Zhou Yong on the side to guide him, Yan Liqiang learned it almost immediately, and soon remembered the essentials of the ten movements of archery, which made Zhou Yong praise.

After mastering the basic essentials of archery, Yan Liqiang spent the whole morning in the barracks of those sergeants mingling with Zhou Yong and those sergeants, practicing archery, observing the sergeants' gun drills, and exchanging martial arts and cultivation experience with everyone.

Many sergeants asked Yan Liqiang for advice on the trick of squatting on the horse, Yan Liqiang did not hide his secrets, in addition to not telling everyone about the Yijin Washing Sutra, but he calmly shared with everyone some of his feelings when crossing the horse step, such as the state of breathing, the kind of spiritual experience that is floating and sinking, and the feeling of tightness and looseness of the body when passing the pass, all communicated with everyone, so that many sergeants have benefited a lot, and they are grateful to Yan Liqiang, you must know that these things, in this era, can not be learned from anywhere.

In the blink of an eye, the time passed in the morning, and when he heard the sound of lunch, Yan Liqiang came to the canteen with everyone, and after lunch, Yan Liqiang said goodbye to Zhou Yong and others, and returned to the small courtyard where he lived alone, came to the attic hut where he lived, closed the door, took out the bow bag that Zhou Yong gave him, put it on the table, and then opened the bow bag, took out the horned python bow inside, and admired it carefully.

This horned python bow is a little shorter than the long bow sac, but it also looks very prestigious, and when you hold it in your hand, it is very heavy and weighty, giving people a very down-to-earth feeling.

When he was in the camp in the morning, Yan Liqiang had been acting very calm, but in fact, after getting the horned python bow from Zhou Yong's hand, Yan Liqiang's little heart was pounding, and the whole person was so excited that he couldn't help himself.

This is a horned python bow, an extraordinary horned python bow!

Coincidentally, in the last life on the earth, just in the month when he broke up with Lu Jiaying, Yan Liqiang happened to be in contact with bows and arrows, one of his customers likes archery, so he invested in a bow club in the city where he is located, once Yan Liqiang went to visit that customer, and the customer took Yan Liqiang to play in the archery club for a while, and since then, Yan Liqiang has been obsessed with archery.

Before he came into contact with archery, Yan Liqiang had been exposed to other sports, such as golf, tennis, basketball, etc., but he didn't have much interest, but I don't know why, from the beginning of his contact with archery, Yan Liqiang liked the feeling of arrows flying out of his hands.

For Yan Liqiang, the moment the bow and arrow flew out of his hand, his heart was always filled with quiet joy, he felt that he was not archery, but like watching a captive bird fly out of his hand.

Yan Liqiang didn't know if this feeling was Zen or if he had psychological problems.

The first time I went to the archery club, there was no coach in the archery, Yan Liqiang took a pulley bow handed to him by the customer, and shot a few arrows crookedly, feeling like he was taking drugs, and he couldn't extricate himself from it.

The membership fee for joining the archery club is 150,000 yuan, and the customer is only a high-end member, and Yan Liqiang, who is shy in his pocket, can only hide the joy and throbbing in his heart, and does not tell anyone, but quietly adds another content to his list of goals in life.

Unfortunately, before he could achieve the list of his life goals, he was reborn.

......

Yan Liqiang gently stroked the black bow body, his mood was even more excited than the first time he touched Lu Jiaying, the black bow body was smooth, delicate, full of texture, and there were circles of spiral strange lines, touching the hand, there was a feeling of touching metal.

In the eyes of many, the Horned Python is more than just a bow, just as Rolex is more than just a watch.

The production of a general qualified war bow requires dry, horn, tendon, glue, silk, lacquer and other materials, not only the production materials are expensive, the production process is more complicated, but also consider the influence of various weather and climate - analyze the bow stem in winter, treat the horn in spring, treat the tendons in summer, close all the materials in autumn, put the bow arm in the bow box in the cold winter, repair the appearance in the severe winter, a war bow from production to completion, at least three years, which also determines the price of a qualified war bow will be very expensive.

But the horned python bow is more expensive than the war bow made with this process, this is expensive, not because of anything else, but because the entire bow body of the horned python bow is naturally integrated, not artificially processed.

The bow body of the horned python bow is the head of the entire horned python.

The horned python is a kind of exotic beast only in this world, compared with ordinary pythons, the head of the horned python will have a pair of horns like horns, and the pair of horns and the head are connected together, just like a graceful and slender bow body, because of this reason, the horned python has the name of horned python.

The two horns on the head of the horned python are completely connected with the bones on the top of its head, completely integrated, and extremely strong, and in addition to being strong, its two horns are also full of strong toughness and elasticity, under the strong force, its two horns will be deformed, but in an instant, as soon as the power is released, its two horns will spring back to their original positions.

This characteristic of the double horns on the head of the horned python is even better than the bow body characteristics of the war bow made of human bows. It is precisely this characteristic that the head of the horned python has become the best material for making the bow body of the war bow, and the python tendon of the horned python has become the best bowstring to match it.

Suffice it to say that in the eyes of many, a horned python is almost equivalent to a good bow.

Horned python lives in the wilderness, not only the number is not much, and it itself is also very dangerous, aggressive, ordinary three or five people, even if they hold a weapon, encounter the horned python and only escape for their lives, in this case, the value of a horned python bow can be imagined, often more than one hundred taels of gold.

Yan Liqiang couldn't have imagined that Zhou Yong would have such a good bow in his hand.

Holding such a good bow, Yan Liqiang couldn't put it down, and his eyes swept over the bow inch by inch.

The bow body and bowstring of this horned python bow have been carefully processed by craftsmen, and the bow in the middle of the bow can no longer see the complete appearance of the horned python skull, and it has been intercepted, and it is also covered with a layer of non-slip leather, and the leather is wrapped with a layer of tight silver wire, and the depression in the eye socket of the horned python skull has just become an arrow platform after processing, and the bow buckle at the tip of the bow is also wrapped with metal to facilitate the fixation of the bowstring.

At first glance, the whole bow is very sophisticated.

In addition to these, at different positions of the bow arms at both ends of the bow, which resemble horns, there are five beautiful dark red patterns, but the patterns are not added by craftsmen, but like the age on the trunk, representing the age of the horned python production, a horned python from birth, I heard that every four years on the double horns will give birth to a circle of patterns, the five circles of patterns, not only represent the age of the horned python is twenty, but also happen to represent this is a five-stone strong bow.

Every four years that the horned python grows, the toughness and elasticity of its double horns are stronger, and it takes more strength to pull it apart.

Looking at the five circles of patterns, Yan Liqiang could only sigh for the horned python, you said that you are a good python, the horns on your head can make a bow, the tendons on your body can make strings, and even the pattern that records your growth age can be used as a label for bow power, how can you let others let you go.

Zhou Yong said that he couldn't pull away this five-stone strong bow, and Yan Liqiang was naturally embarrassed to show off in front of Zhou Yong, so when he shot arrows in the camp just now, he used a different bow, only two stones.

Thirty catties is one jun, four jun is one stone, each stone is one hundred and twenty catties, that is, sixty kilograms, a strong bow of five stones, it takes at least three hundred kilograms of strength to pull it in the hand, and it is impossible to hand over such a bow to an ordinary person.

After carefully playing with the horned python bow in his hand for a while, Yan Liqiang stood up, held the bow handle with his left hand, pulled the string with his right hand, took a deep breath, exhaled and opened his voice, supported with his left hand, pulled back with his right hand, and the strength on his legs, waist, and back shook at the same time, and the horned python bow was slowly filled by Yan Liqiang.

The horse step is successful, Yan Liqiang has the strength of a rhinosaurus horse, and the strong bow of five stones is not difficult in his hand, but just right.

As soon as the hand was loosened, the bow was like a thunderbolt, and the air in the room exploded with a bang, like a firecracker......

"Hahaha......" Thinking that he actually got what he wanted here today, Yan Liqiang laughed out loud in the room, extremely happy.

After trying the horned python bow, Yan Liqiang put the horned python bow back away and put it in the bow sac, and the bow sac was also placed in the room, anyway, this courtyard is the most important place in the entire craftsman camp, countless people are staring, and no outsiders can come in the craftsman camp, so don't worry about putting this bow here.

After putting the bow away, Yan Liqiang looked at the pile of sulfur in the corner of the room, and finally remembered something in his head, and then he closed the door, left the courtyard, and came to the place where Qian Su lived.
