Chapter 61: Archery Gets Better
Guanyin was thinking in her heart.
In the blink of an eye, Li Shimin rode back from the east side of the square at a gallop.
Before reaching the earthen platform, it does not slow down.
Li Shimin got up from the saddle, stood on the horse's pedals, and fired three times in a row with his bow and arrows.
That sassy and heroic posture has a kind of unrestrained and free and easy that cannot be described in words.
In Guanyin's young heart, a trace of inexplicable ripples was aroused.
Guanyin's eyes were only chasing Li Shimin's figure, and she even forgot to see if the arrow had hit the target.
Suddenly, I heard Xin'er and the others cheering, "Three more arrows hit the bull's-eye."
Guanyin came back to her senses, and secretly felt happy for Li Shimin in her heart.
During this time, his riding and archery skills became more and more sophisticated.
-----
Li Shimin shot it, and in the end, the eldest grandson was arrogant.
So all seven men had finished shooting, and the whole round was over, and all seven of them handed over their horses to their attendants.
Several people walked to the east side of the Tutai, each pulled over a Hu bed, sat together, and summed up the experience and shortcomings of this round of training.
Changsun Hong, Changsun Wuji, Changsun Gradual, and Changsun Wuao, this time they didn't all hit the bull's-eye.
The four of them couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
Changsun Hong was the most annoyed, only one arrow hit the bull's-eye, he wondered in his heart, I don't know what the problem is? After shooting the first arrow, you can no longer find your target.
The eldest grandson Wuji blamed himself for being slow to pick up the arrows, so every arrow shot was in a hurry.
The eldest grandson gradually and the eldest grandson Wuao also felt that their problem was that the arrow was too slow.
------
Li Shimin suggested, "I think we should carefully experience the mantra left by the eldest grandson and uncle."
"Really do what the mantra says, and then practice according to their weaknesses."
Then he asked, "Have you ever memorized the mantra?"
The eldest grandson was a little helpless and replied:
"Who can't remember those few words? The point is to mess up as soon as you get on the field."
Li Shimin advised everyone to take a closer look,
"I'll memorize the mantra again, let's compare it sentence by sentence, and see which one hasn't been done?"
Then, he memorized the riding and archery mantra taught by Changsun Sheng again,
"Don't think about yourself, don't be drawn to the enemy, pay attention to a little bit, like planning a circle. Take the arrow quickly, draw the bow to be full, and wait for the enemy to come, decisively loosen the string. If the fighter plane dies, it will be in front of the enemy."
------
After reciting the mantra, Li Shimin patiently explained,
"The enemy cavalry mentioned in Uncle Eldest Sun's mantra refers to the target we use in practice, do you understand this?"
Everyone nodded.
Li Shimin saw that several people understood what the enemy cavalry meant, so he continued to explain sentence by sentence.
The meaning of this mantra is that when practicing riding and archery, don't care how you move or look for targets everywhere.
It is necessary to focus your attention and target on a point that the target will pass through.
This point is like using a compass, drawing the center of the circle, and the eyes should always be fixed on this point.
Before the target reaches this target location, it is necessary to quickly take the arrow and draw the bow to be ready.
Seeing that the target is almost at the target position, it is necessary to decisively loosen the string and shoot the arrow.
If the target has already entered the target position, it will be too late to loosen the strings.
If the target has reached the target position and the arrow has not been fired, it is necessary to choose a new point on the route of the target to wait.
Therefore, when the target is turning, do not look for the target, but wait for the target.
------
Guanyin saw Li Shimin and a few people talking on the edge of the earthen platform, so she said to Xin'er and Jia Luo:
"Let's go over and see what they're talking about."
After speaking, he stood up and took the lead to walk towards Li Shimin and the others.
Guanyin went down the earth platform along the steps on the east side and walked to the place where Li Shimin and the five of them were talking.
The three of Changsun Hong, Changsun Zhan, and Changsun Jian saw Guanyin coming, and hurriedly stood up and greeted him, "Hello, little aunt."
Guanyin smiled and nodded to the three of them.
The eldest grandson Shunde likes to tease Guanyin, pretending to start picking gifts,
"Little aunt, I don't know how to salute when I see my uncle."
Guanyin sneered at each other, "Auntie knows that Uncle Shunde has the smallest heart, how can he be rude in front of you?"
As he spoke, he walked up to the eldest grandson Shunde, curtsied, and said, "Auntie asks Uncle Shunde how is it."
The eldest grandson, Shunde, laughed and said in a loud voice, "No courtesy, no courtesy."
-----
He continued, "A-maid is smart, she can say something about anything, you can tell me who shoots the best."
Guanyin was very modest, "I don't know archery, how can I tell the truth?"
Li Shimin stood up and said to Guanyin with a smile:
"Sister Maid, the authorities are fascinated, the bystanders are clear, Uncle Shunde asks you to say it, you can talk about it."
Guanyin looked at Li Shimin with a smile, and couldn't help but say what was in her heart,
"Brother Shimin is not only good at horseback, but also good at arrows. Let me comment, isn't it a hatchet?"
Guanyin said that she didn't comment, but in fact, she had praised Li Shimin.
------
The eldest grandson Zhan thought that his riding and archery skills were also good, and when he heard Guanyin praise Li Shimin, his heart was a little itchy.
He couldn't hold it in his heart, and wanted to get the praise of Guanyin,
"Little aunt, please give me a comment too."
Guanyin looked at his proud appearance and knew that she wanted to praise him.
deliberately teased him, "Ah Zhan......
Then, look up at the sky and pretend to think.
Eldest Sun Zhan was anxious, and then asked, "Little aunt, how did I?"
Guanyin looked serious and said:
"I'm going to tell the truth. You haven't practiced well enough, you need to learn from your uncle."
------
Hearing Guanyin say this, the eldest grandson Zhan was unconvinced.
But he didn't dare to argue with Guanyin.
Eldest Sun Zhan knew that this little aunt was not easy to mess with.
From childhood to adulthood, he has suffered a lot in front of Guanyin, and if he is not careful, he may touch a gray nose.
This time too, the eldest grandson Zhan wanted to be praised, but he didn't expect it to backfire.
He accompanied the smiling face to lift Guanyin, "I hope that the little aunt can give you a lesson or two."
------
Guanyin looked at the insincere appearance of the eldest grandson, and secretly laughed in her heart.
I thought, let me say, I'll convince you, you can't get to the point, and you'll be sure to raise the bar with me in a while.
And she told the truth what she saw.
"When Brother Shimin came to the earthen platform, the horse did not slow down."
"When you were about to get to the earthen platform, you reined in your horse, and the speed was noticeably slower, and then you shot, don't you say?"
Eldest Sun Zhan didn't expect that Guanyin had observed so carefully and found out his own fault at once.
He had to admire and admit his own problems,
"My little aunt is right, I'm afraid that the horse will run fast, and I won't have time to shoot three arrows."
Guanyin saw that he was soft, but changed her tone,
"Except for Brother Shimin, Ah Zhan shoots the best, that is, when he picks up the arrow, he has to be faster."
After waiting for a long time, he finally got the praise he wanted, and Changsun Zhan couldn't help but be overjoyed.
------
When the eldest grandson Shunde heard this, he was a little unhappy,
"I said, little girl, why did you forget Uncle again?"
When Guanyin heard the secret scream, she complained in her heart that the eldest grandson Zhan came out to fight for merit.
She really forgot about her eldest grandson, Shunde.
After a moment's turn of thought, she had an idea again.
She smiled and said, "How could I have forgotten Uncle Shunde? It's just that you are an elder, how can you compare yourself with a junior?"
The eldest grandson Shunde was happy, "It's still a maid who can speak, I love to hear this."
Guanyin then commented, "Uncle Shunde, the strength is big and the bow is round, and the archery skills are also accurate, and he can shoot arrows faster, and he will not be inferior to Brother Shimin."
Guanyin's evaluation of the eldest grandson Shunde is indeed not flattering, and his archery skills, in a sense, are better than Li Shimin.
If the distance of the arrow target is farther, it is possible that the eldest grandson Shunde can shoot it, but Li Shimin can't shoot it.
-----
After saying that the eldest grandson Zhan, Guanyin flashed her bright eyes again, and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a smile,
"Fourth brother, can I also comment on the four of you?"
The eldest grandson Wuji looked at this smart, witty, and somewhat naughty sister kindly,
Encouraged, "Just say it."
Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji agreed, Guanyin was no longer polite,
"Ah Hong's biggest problem is that when others shoot, the tip of the arrow doesn't shake."
"Only the tip of your arrow moves back and forth, as if you're chasing a target."
"The fourth brother, the arrogant brother and the elder brother are all slow to take arrows and shoot in a hurry."
------
After listening to Guanyin's comments, Li Shimin and others had to be convinced.
Although she said that she didn't know archery, she was to the point in every sentence, and she hit the nail on the head.
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "Ah Wan can see it so accurately, or you will be the head of our sect in the future."
Guanyin knew that the eldest grandson Wuji was laughing at herself, and suddenly became shy,
"How can I be your leader, but I can just play tricks, like you practice hard day and night."
The eldest grandson, Shunde, continued, "I think we must not only practice hard, but also practice skillfully."
"As we do today, it's important to look for deficiencies from time to time."
"It is much better for everyone to practice according to their own shortcomings, which is much better than blindly practicing hard."
"During these days, Ah Hong has to practice aiming more, and Ah Zhan, Ah Gradual, and Wu Ao and I have to practice more about taking arrows and the coherence in the middle."
After hearing this, several people agreed.
The eldest grandson Wuji said, "Then we will practice separately according to what Uncle Shunde said. Ah Hong practiced aiming at the target, a few of us practiced quickly taking arrows, and the people of the world arranged it according to the situation."
------
Guanyin took the opportunity to beg the eldest grandson Wuji,
"Fourth brother, how about letting Brother Shimin take me on a horse?"
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "I can't be the master of this, you need to ask the people."
Guanyin saw that the eldest grandson Wuji did not object, which means that she has agreed.
She walked up to Li Shimin, took his hand, and raised her face to plead,
"Brother Shimin, take me on a horse."
Li Shimin likes this elf-quirky little sister very much.
From the first day I saw her, I felt that the two of them were very compatible.
Listening to Guanyin begging to ride a horse, Li Shimin didn't want to ruin her interest.
He said to Guanyin, "This side will affect their archery practice, let's go to the threshing floor on the east side of the road."
