Chapter 5: The Eldest Princess's Curiosity
Anyone who knew that the emperor was on a northern tour knew that the emperor was in a hurry. e^See leaderboard}
And because he knew that this was a dispute between the academy and the emperor, and it was impossible for the academy to deliberately delay for any time, Tong Wei did not train Lin Xi and Bian Linghan to the point of complete "jīng" exhaustion on this day, for fear that the two would not be able to adjust to the best state in the already approaching competition.
However, Lin Xi did not immediately return to the Ge Xinsheng Palace, but casually found an excuse to be alone to be quiet and have more perception of the wind and water vapor between heaven and earth, and found a higher mountain in this wasteland alone and climbed up.
"It's almost exactly five hundred and fifty steps here, isn't it?"
Climbing to the edge of a cliff near the top of the mountain, Lin Xi gasped slightly, looked at the wasteland below the mountain, and couldn't help but muttered in admiration.
It's really high, it's far away.
The admiration in Lin Xi's tone was admiring his archery skills.
In this world with many powerful cultivators, his archery skills at the moment may not be particularly amazing, but for the modern world he was familiar with before, it is estimated that no one can "shè" arrows more accurate than him, especially with this ordinary standard longbow.
What restricts the accuracy of the arrow from hitting the target is not only how to eliminate the subtle effects of the bowstring and the flutter of the arrow itself on the arrow when the arrow is out of hand, but also how to perceive and use the flow of the mountain wind, and how to correct the deviation of the water vapor and the center of gravity of the arrow when it falls... Even eyesight has become a big limitation.
Now, at such a distance, the small tree at the bottom of the mountain, which is about the same height as a person, is only a small dot.
Fortunately, the cultivation of soul power has improved the overall physical fitness of the cultivator, and Lin Xi's eyesight has also improved greatly now compared to when he came out of Lulin Town, otherwise I am afraid that if I look down on this mountain, I will not even be able to see such a small tree as tall as a human clearly, let alone be able to aim at Shi ''shè'.
Lin Xi casually picked a leaf, threw it forward, breathed deeply, stretched out his hand, and sensed the flow of the mountain wind.
Then he chose a small tree under the mountain as a target very casually, took off the black "sè" longbow he was carrying, twisted out an arrow with great skill, slowly inhaled and exhaled, adjusted himself to the most calm and peaceful state, and then shot an arrow towards the sky in front of him.
"Huh!"
A black line appeared in the sky, first as if a new mountain wind had been added between heaven and earth, and then as the speed of the arrow became faster and faster, the sound of the arrow became more and more aircurrent, and a looming white "sè" air flow appeared around it.
Now the arrowhead and tail feathers of each arrow used by Lin Xi have been transformed by the heart of "jīng", the arrow is carved with several deep and shallow grooves, the tail feathers are dyed harder with gum, and the unique grooves on the arrow make the arrow rotate violently when it flies rapidly, which makes the arrow itself "dòng" piercing force stronger.
According to Tong Wei, there are many kinds of arrows designed for cultivators in the academy, and this modified arrow is a simplified version of one of the cloud-piercing iron feather arrows.
The entire body of the arrow, including the tail feathers, is made of strong "hún" composite steel, and the texture of the whole body and the dense weight distribution of "jīng" make this arrow not only spin more violently when it falls sharply in the sky, but also "jīng" will be more accurate. Book mí group 2']
Theoretically speaking, if you can use the simple transformation of the arrow "shè" in the current way, you will naturally be more accurate in the future with the arrow that pierces the clouds.
......
The rudimentary version is a rudimentary version after all, and Lin Xi's archery skills have not reached the level of defying the sky after all, so when this arrow fell to the ground in the terrible scream of breaking through the sky, although the "jī" shattered countless blades of grass, and the wind flow brought up caused the broken blades of grass to form a cloud of green mist, it was at least more than twenty meters away from the small tree that Lin Xi was aiming at.
"This arrow is Bian Linghan's 'shè'. ”
Lin Xi carefully watched the trajectory of this arrow, and at the same time as he muttered to himself, the second arrow had already flown out of his hand.
The second arrow slammed to the ground again with a terrible scream of breaking through the air.
What made him shake his head unsatisfied, the second arrow was far away from the right front, and it was nearly ten meters away from the small tree.
However, he did not stop, but shot at a stone, very calmly and steadily.
It was as if the sniper bullets in the world before him had fallen to the ground, and the grass around the small tree was constantly being filled with clumps of "luàn" and "mí" grass clippings.
Sometimes Lin Xi's arrow looked like it was about to fall on the small tree, but in the end, it was still a few feet away, and it passed by, and the air flow caused the leaves of the small tree to tremble for a while, and the next arrow may not be better than this arrow.
Because the vitality between heaven and earth is fluid, Lin Xi is not a robot, and it is impossible to guarantee that the adjustment of each arrow is perfect.
It took dozens of arrows to finally pass through the canopy, shattering the leaves of the small tree and landing diagonally on the trunk of the small tree.
The trunk of the small tree instantly burst into a circle of "hún" mixed with fresh wood chips, and then the small tree broke off directly from it and flew to the ground.
"Taking advantage of this wind, the height is two hundred meters higher, and the strength is really much greater..."
Lin Xi took a deep breath, exclaimed in his heart, but did not stop at all, and immediately shouted, "Go back!"
Time goes back to ten stops ago.
Lin Xi stood back in the same position, standing extremely carefully, without any deviation.
Then he didn't immediately "shè" the arrow like last time, but calculated the time extremely carefully in his mind.
Ever since he came to this world and discovered that he had the special ability to return to the front of the ten stops once a day, his calculation of time is probably more accurate than anyone in this world except Dean Zhang, and I am afraid that the stopwatch in the previous world is no more than that. Still, he was very careful.
He waited, for ten stops, and when the last two seconds flowed through his mind, he fired an arrow with an extremely calm "shè".
"This arrow is Bian Linghan's ''shè'!"
He still muttered in his heart, and at the same time there was still no stop in his hand, the arrow had almost just begun to fall from the sky, and he had already held the feather for the second time, and watching the trajectory of this arrow, he "shè" the second arrow.
"Huh!"
There was an extra wind between heaven and earth, and then it immediately turned into a sharp whistling sound.
The first arrow fell heavily to the ground, only a few feet away from the trunk of the small tree, and the green "sè" and "mí" bloomed on the ground.
A second arrow pierced the shallow canopy, severing half of the trunk, and the tree snapped and fell to the ground in a tremble.
"Whew..."
Lin Xi let out a sigh, just two arrows, because of the high tension of the god 'jīng' and the sudden relaxation of concentration, his whole body was already sweating, but his face was also blooming with a happy smile.
The wind of this world, like people's hearts, is constantly changing, but the trajectory of this world is the same.
With his cultivation and perception, as well as the limitations of this arrow, he could not clearly perceive the slightest change in wind direction five hundred paces away.
But he can know how the wind is flowing at this time, what kind of effect it will have on the arrows, and what kind of correction he needs to make.
In this way, as long as he does not have problems with the control of the arrow itself, the arrow is still very likely to hit his opponent at this distance.
In order to avoid the smallest deviation, the arrows that Lin Xi ''shè'' made at this moment were even the arrows that were used at the beginning and the last time.
"But this can still be done after all..."Lin Xi sat down on the cliff, looked at the world in front of him leisurely, and began to talk nonsense in a low voice like when he was in Lulin Town, "The people of your world think that people are born with the distinction between kings and ministers, and as the people of Yun Qin, you must be completely loyal to the emperor... But I was born different from you, and I don't have such an awareness. And you can't do it... But that doesn't mean I can't do it. The academy is subject to the emperor... This is really troublesome, one day, the emperor wants to listen to the academy, then it will not be so troublesome..."
......
......
Just when Lin Xi began to talk some rebellious nonsense, the emperor's northern tour had already passed through the main vein of mountains and seas, and the wheels of the dragon had already pressed on the soil of the Four Seasons Plain.
Although this northern tour only used the statement of visiting Vice President Xia and other Yunqin heroes, and did not bring many powerful ministers, those nine elders and eight princes are still sitting in the imperial city, but since it is a holy car, the formation is naturally extraordinary, with columns of honor guards and entourage, dense banners and cloud covers and crowds, guarding the majestic large carriage in the middle, which is daunting.
In the large carriage, the emperor dressed in bright yellow "sè" plain clothes sat in front of a bookcase, and on a soft couch opposite him, sat a "NV" son with palace clothes and cloud temples, who was the eldest princess and eldest grandson Muyue who was assassinated in Rudongling.
Because of the strong cultivator's physique, because the stab was deliberately stabbed, at this moment, Eldest Sun Muyue could no longer see any traces of injury and weakness.
On the contrary, the emperor, who had to deal with some things in the carriage, was a little tired between his eyebrows, and there was indescribable tiredness in some subtle wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
Because there are only two people, he and the eldest grandson Muyue, so he has nothing to hide this tiredness.
The head of a family only needs to bear the pressure of one family, but how much pressure does the head of a country, who is the monarch of the most powerful empire in the world, bear?
And before the ministers, it is not easy to show some of the tiredness in the heart, all that can be shown is self-confidence and majesty... So kings tend to die young.
Suddenly, the eldest grandson Muyue on the soft couch suddenly put down a small roll in her hand and chuckled inexplicably.
The emperor raised his head and looked at the eldest grandson Muyue, who was smiling very suddenly, with some surprise, feeling that the god on the face of this sister he knew very well at the moment made him completely puzzled.
"Brother Huang, there is something you may never have thought of. The eldest grandson Muyue didn't play dumb riddles, raised the small scroll in his hand, looked at the emperor and said, "When I passed through Lulin Town, I had a whim, so I asked Lu Dongling Li Xiping to recommend a country boy there to participate in the Qingluan Academy test... But I never thought that now this teenager would actually become the natural choice of Qingluan Academy. He also became one of the five people who participated in the Qingluan Academy. ”
The emperor was slightly stunned, "The country boy in Lulin Town?"
"My parents were just ordinary businessmen and didn't have any experience in spiritual practice. The eldest grandson Muyue looked at the emperor and said, "I asked Li Xiping to recommend him to participate in the Qingluan Academy exam, just because I heard him shouting that thunder and rain will collect clothes." ”
"He would never have had contact with Dean Zhang. The emperor frowned, glanced at the eldest grandson Muyue, and said.
Eldest Sun Muyue nodded, "That's why I'm curious, he can really enter Qingluan Academy, and he can also become one of the five people in Qingluan Academy." ”
"Since you recommended it, and you can be regarded as having a relationship, after this competition, if he is still alive... You can show him some affection for him. The emperor sank slightly, and spoke.
Eldest Sun Muyue nodded, looked at the emperor's somewhat tired expression, sighed softly, and said, "You have also read the battle lists of the two sides, do you think the Thunder Academy side has a chance of winning?"
A layer of perseverance and perseverance suddenly appeared on the emperor's face, and he said slowly, "Most of the freshmen selection of Thunder Academy is based on cultivation and combat power, and I propose to compete with freshmen, which is actually unfair to Qingluan Academy, because I think that this kind of competition, it is the cultivation before enrollment that plays a decisive role in determining the "xìng". But Vice President Xia directly agreed, and agreed to this kind of competition, which is actually somewhat unfair... This is the pride of him and Qingluan Academy, and he must also want to prove me wrong on this point. In particular, if you say that a young man in Lulin Town who has never been in contact with cultivation can defeat the students I selected and deliberately cultivated since I was a child after less than two months of training, it will definitely give me a bigger blow. Naturally, this confidence of him and the academy will not be for nothing... But whether it is the students of Qingluan Academy or the students of Thunder Academy I selected, they are still immature after all, and no one knows if the specific performance will be the same as we think, so this competition, in the end, depends on the will of God, it depends on this day... Whoever wants to win is who wins. ”
After a slight pause, a deeper tiredness appeared on the emperor's face, and he lightly "róu" his sun "xùe", and said slowly, "But for me, I can't do nothing. Because even if it depends on the will of God, if you do too much, it is always impossible for one party to win.
