Chapter 106: Questioning
The three of them flew out almost in unison, like sharp blades, and shot fiercely into the yak's head and face.
Two arrows hit the yak's left and right eyes, causing it to suffer another blow to its blindness, and one arrow hit the yak's hall.
Because the arrow was too fast, except for Lu Dongzan and a few of them themselves, no one knew where the arrow hit the eye and where the arrow hit Yintang.
The yak, which had been hit by three arrows in the vital part, ran forward a few more steps, crashed into a large stone fence, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
Seeing that it was dead, there was a cheer all around.
The referees were Gong Dun, another thousand household chiefs of Tuyuhun, Marli, and Lin Haibo, a lieutenant of Datang.
After the inspection, Marley said: "In the end, this cow was killed by the three arrows of Datang, Tubo and Tuyuhun at the same time, and it cannot be listed in the Datang competition results. ”
After listening to the translator's words, Lin Haibo lowered his face and was unconvinced, "If it weren't for the two of them seriously injuring this cow, even if there were three arrows in the back, this cow wouldn't have died, besides." This cow was only hit by one arrow each of Tubo and Tuyuhun, so why can't it be considered a Tang Dynasty? ”
Gong Dun listened with a smile on the side, and made a thin mud, "The emperor of the Tang Dynasty married his daughter to our Zampu, we are like a family, Tubo is willing to count this arrow on the head of the Tang Dynasty, and this cow should be counted as what they shot to death." ”
Marley sneered, "What is it better than that?" It's good that our credit is on the side of the Tang Dynasty, not only the Zanpu of Tubo married the princess, but our Kehan also married the daughter of the Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Jingheng, who came over, heard this and said in a deep voice: "This cow doesn't have to be counted, the guest is as good as the host." ”
When he said this, Lin Haibo naturally didn't want to fight anymore, so he only looked at Marley angrily and said, "You have set the rules, and naturally follow what you say." ”
No matter how thick-skinned Marley is, he is a little impressed after listening to the translator's words, this is Tuyuhun's territory, and when people say this, they almost don't say that they are Laipi.
After all, strictly speaking, even if this cow didn't have the three arrows behind it, it would die sooner or later.
The reason why Li Jingheng didn't want to fight was that Marley was not wrong, if there were no three arrows, most of the yaks would break the stone fence and run to the outside of the paddock and die of exhaustion, then it would be out of the ground, although the previous rules did not say it clearly, but the competition was in the paddock, and naturally the yak should also fall to the ground in the paddock.
If you bite this point, the second one will die of blood, and the one that dies outside the paddock will not be counted.
Although Marley was a little calculus, he didn't go too far, and Li Jingheng didn't want to hurt the harmony.
The final result was that Datang killed two yaks with seven arrows and a short sword, and seriously injured one.
The stone fence has been broken, and it has to be rebuilt before the competition, and the battle between the Tubo and Tuyuhun warriors and the yak was postponed to the afternoon.
After lunch, when Tuyuhun came on the stage, I thought that there would be many fewer viewers because of the previous tragedy, but as a result, there were more people than in the morning.
Seeing that Li Yuntong was stunned, Li Danyao smiled and said: "After all, this is Tuyuhun, there are many girls who like these three warriors, and when they look at it, where there are many girls, there are always teenagers, plus their families...... There are also small merchants and vendors doing business, and there are naturally more people, but you see, there are many fewer children, which means that although the soldiers who were injured in the morning were guards, everyone still had some scruples. ”
The two sisters are chatting, and the mid-field match has begun.
It is probably because the Tuyuhun people are familiar with the habits of yaks, although this scene is also very intense, but it does not take long, and there are no casualties.
In short, it was the warriors of Tuyuhun who killed three yaks, and also went around the field majestically to accept everyone's cheers.
They killed three yaks, using six arrows.
Compared with them, Datang had a slight injury, a serious injury, and the one that was not injured was also covered in mud...... It looks like it's going to be a lot more embarrassing.
Because it was still early, after a short rest, the Tibetan warriors went on the field.
Because Tota is so boastful, he was provoked by the people on Tuyuhun's side, and he was also one of the three warriors.
Of the three, he is the weakest, of course, not really weak, after all, he was able to be a slave and be appreciated by Gondon and become a warrior because he was strong enough and not afraid of death.
Having fought several battles, each battle was safe and sound, and Tota had some real skills and luck.
However, the gods of fate did not always favor him......
Not long after he came on the field, he was carried down like Guan Feng.
But his injuries were much more serious than Guan Fengke's, the yak chased him like crazy, his ribs were trampled on a few times, and he kept vomiting blood from his mouth, and he couldn't live.
Although the Tibetans also killed three yaks, two of them were seriously injured, one was lightly injured, and one of them was seriously injured and may not survive until tomorrow.
To kill three yaks, they used eight arrows and a waist knife.
No matter how Datang and Tubo rank, Tuyuhun won this competition.
Before the results were announced, Gong Dun's face was gloomy, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly said: "How can I look at the warriors of the Tang Dynasty, as well as our warriors, the arrows are not very good?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
The weapons for this competition were all provided by the Tuyuhun people, and Gong Dun's words were clearly accusing the Tuyuhun people of taking advantage of the convenience of being the master to make things bad for the Tang Dynasty and Tubo.
If such accusations cannot be proved to be false, Tuyuhun will not be despised.
The eyes of the three warriors of Tubo lit up together, and even Tota held on to his breath, staring at a few people on Datang's side with burning eyes.
Yes, it must be the Tuyuhun people cheating, otherwise, how could they lose to Tuyuhun?
There's got to be weird about that.
Tota even ignored the pain in his ribs, the blood gushing out, pointed at Marley and said, "That's right, if it weren't for the arrow, the arrow was not on the right head, I wouldn't have missed, no, wouldn't ......" He used his last breath, and before he could finish his words, his head turned off and he stopped breathing.
His death, coupled with the testimony before his death, the Tuyuhun people are already at a loss for words.
The smiling faces of Lin Haibo and the others gradually faded.
For the sake of fairness, before announcing the results, they not only had to interrogate the soldiers arranged at each point to report what they saw, but also took back all the weapons and checked how many weapons were used to kill the yak.
If Gongton's question is true, they don't need to use all the iron arrows as their hands and feet, just move one or two, their strength will be greatly reduced, and it is not surprising that the Tuyuhun people will win completely.
No matter which one Marley's answer is, it is not good for Tuyuhun, after all, the weapons are unified, and at this point there is no way to confirm which one is used by the Tang Dynasty and which one is used by Tubo.
But if this matter is not explained, they will quarrel, and after the last trouble, it will be Tuyuhun's reputation that will be ruined.
Gonton's question, Tota's accusation, can be described as ruthless, so that they don't even have room to defend themselves.
When Guan Feng heard this, he also said that there was something wrong with his arrows, and on weekdays, it was impossible for him, a sharpshooter, to shoot off.
As soon as they heard that there might be a problem with the weapons on their side, the people of Datang, Tubo and Tuyuhun almost fought.
It took several times for Marley to calm down the matter for the time being.
But when such a situation occurs, the Sangoku Guard, who was originally friendly and able to sit together and drink and talk, has become like a cockfight, and a fight can break out at any time.
Tota's body was disposed of by someone else, but the results of the competition were put aside, and the relevant situation was reported to Nuo Haobo, Lu Dongzan and Li Yuntong.
It's about Tuyuhun's reputation, and the people below can't be the master.
After listening to the cause and effect, Li Yuntong's eyelids drooped, and he put away the doubts in his eyes without a trace.
Tuyuhun really wants to do something, it shouldn't be so obvious, make it bad on the arrow, after all, before going on the field, all the weapons will be checked again by those warriors, and there is no problem before, how can it be wrong when it comes to the field?
As for shooting off, she has also practiced arrows, and the environment she is in, and different mentalities may lead to deviations.
Guan Feng shouldn't be lying, but it may just be that he was too nervous.
As for Toto, it is very unlikely that a person will tell a lie before he dies, but he is about to die, and he may not be talking nonsense out of resentment.
After hearing this, Li Daozong was silent for a moment and said: "All weapons must be checked before use, how can they be tampered with, after you have checked them, can those weapons pass through other people's hands again?" ”
Chen Douzi and the others all shook their heads.
Duoga, the warrior who had been slightly injured in Tibet, thought for a moment and said, "Even though we have checked all those weapons, if we only deviate the arrow by one or two points, we will not be able to see it when it is not used. ”
Listening to his words, Chen Douzi and the others also nodded in agreement.
Hearing this, Li Yuntong also frowned, in this way, it would be difficult for the Tuyuhun people to prove their innocence.
If this matter is not handled properly, she and Sister Dan Yao will be in harmony with the two Tibetan countries, not to mention the goal of stopping the war on the border, and it is possible to have enmity and resentment.
It seems that she will have to solve this problem by some extraordinary means.
Seeing that the few people sitting were at a loss, Li Yuntong said softly: "If the Khan and the Great Prime Minister believe it, I have an idea to find out the truth of this matter." ”
Lu Dongzan naturally believed her, and immediately said: "Tubo is up to Her Royal Highness the princess to decide. ”
Gong Dun sneered on the side, "Even if you can be the lord of Tubo, but the princess is already the daughter to be married, can she still be the lord of the Tang Dynasty?" I don't ask the prince of the county what he means. ”
Li Daozong respectfully saluted Li Yuntong and said: "Before leaving, the Son of Heaven explained that everything is important to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the ministers naturally obey Her Royal Highness the Princess's arrangement. ”
At that time, Li Daoming, the king of Huaiyang, was robbed of the throne after he missed that Princess Honghua was not the emperor's daughter, and was demoted to the history of Yunzhou Thorn.
There is a lesson from the past, not to mention the front of the people, even the people behind Li Yuntong and Li Daozong are rarely referred to as father and daughter, so that Gong Dun still does not know their identities.
Seeing that the provocation failed, Gong Dun pulled the corners of his mouth and was speechless for a while.
After waiting for a long time, seeing that everyone didn't ask, he couldn't hold back and said, "I don't know if the princess has any idea to find out the truth of this matter?" ”
