Chapter 142 Killing Cattle and Eating Meat
Li Shimin used the continuous archery technique "Chasing the Wind Arrow Method" taught by Changsun Sheng, and shot three arrows at the top of the "robber's" head, but he did not draw the bow to the fullest, and the arrows shot did not reach the fastest speed.
When the man saw the arrows flying, he did not hesitate, shook the lance of the horse in his hand, and shot down all three arrows.
------
According to the bet, it is said that this game is won by that person.
But the man was not smug, but a little frightened.
It was the first time in his life that he had seen someone shoot three arrows in a row at such a fast speed. Moreover, the other party reminded in advance that he should shoot his head on the head, hold his lance in front of his chest, and shoot three arrows in the same direction, when the arrow comes, he only needs to move the lance slightly, and the three arrows can be shot down.
If the opponent does not warn and the arrow is fired at three different places on his body, after shooting down the first arrow, when the second arrow is struck, the range of movement of the lance will be much larger, and it may be too late, let alone dodge the third arrow.
So the man couldn't help but be frightened, and secretly praised Li Shimin's excellent archery skills.
------
Li Shimin shot three arrows, and when he saw that the other party had shot down all three arrows, he also secretly praised the other party's martial arts, not only with bright eyes, but also with fast hands.
Guanyin had seen Li Shimin practice this kind of archery before, and knew the power of these three arrows, she originally thought that the man could not block the three arrows, and when she saw that he shot down all the three arrows, she actually shouted for the man.
Li Shimin turned his face and looked at Guanyin with a smile, "Do you think this person is a talent?"
Guanyin also cherished her talents, and said with a smile, "It should be well deserved, don't hurt him."
Li Shimin nodded, "I know this, but I must let him know that I am powerful, and he will be convinced."
------
After seeing Li Shimin shoot three arrows, the man ignored himself and talked to the girl next to him.
He shouted impatiently, "You said you were betting on two rounds, why don't you shoot the next one?"
Li Shimin stopped talking to Guanyin, and said to the man with a smile:
"It seems that Mr. Martial Arts is not bad, you won the first round and kept your BMW."
"But don't be too happy, I didn't draw the bow to the full force just now, and I won't be polite to you in the second round."
"I'm going to, you have to be prepared."
------
The man was also obedient, and held a lance in front of him.
Li Shimin said, took out the momentum of the competition in the Chang'an East Campus, only to hear the bowstring sound, and the three arrows were shot almost at the same time.
This time it was not as easy to defend as last time, and the three arrows flew towards the man at full speed.
The man actually shot down the first arrow, but when he struck the second arrow, he did not have time to return the fire with the lance in his hand.
He had to watch the second arrow pass through his head, and then he went straight to the third, but fortunately it landed on the tail, which was deflected and flew to one side.
------
After Li Shimin shot three arrows, he saw that the man could block two arrows.
At such a close distance and such a fast arrow speed, even if Li Shimin was allowed to block it himself, he did not dare to guarantee that he could shoot down all three arrows.
Li Shimin made a comparison with himself in his heart, just talking about the moves of the horse lance, that person's martial arts should be on par with himself.
------
At this time, Guanyin whispered behind Li Shimin,
"Brother Shimin, you have to find a way to keep him. Or give him this horse, and he will be tempted to give him a horse when he sees that you have won."
Li Shimin believes that what Guanyin said is indeed a good way, and it is also worth exchanging a BMW for a brave general. He wanted to see how the other person reacted, and if he turned away, it wouldn't be too late to call him again.
------
The man seemed to be shocked by the arrow shot by Li Shimin, and he was stunned for a moment, maybe he was stunned, or he was thinking about what to do next.
Then the man did not hurry to hang the lance behind the saddle, and took off the hood on his head, and the hair that had been broken by the arrow was scattered to the ground in the wind, and he looked at the hole in the head, and then gathered the loose hair, put it back together, and put the pierced head on his head again.
After arranging his hair, the man looked at Li Shimin, Guanyin and others, as if he had no intention of leaving, but saw him turn over and dismount, leading the horse steadily towards Li Shimin and the others.
------
Walking to a distance of one zhang, the man stopped and said to Li Shimin,
"Erlang Jun of the Tang State Mansion, as expected, his archery skills are unparalleled in the world, and Liu Hongji of Chiyang did not take the liberty to come to visit."
Li Shimin couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that this person who called himself Liu Hongji actually recognized himself.
Li Shimin hurriedly dismounted, and also bowed his hand and said, "Shimin is young, lonely, ignorant of human affairs, and ignorant of heroes, I hope to forgive me."
------
Liu Hongji introduced himself, "Under Liu Hongji, a person from Chiyang, Yongzhou, the son of the former Hezhou Thorn Shi, his father scolded Liu Sheng."
He only said his father's original official position and name, but also to gain Li Shimin's trust, so that Li Shimin knew that he was also from a famous family and was not a scoundrel in the market.
Li Shimin listened to his introduction, and bowed his hand again and again, "It turned out to be Brother Liu, disrespectful, disrespectful."
He then asked Liu Hongji, "Where is Brother Liu going, and is it convenient for him to go with him?"
Liu Hongji replied, "There is no fixed place to go in Xia, this trip is really for Erlangjun, if you don't give up, I am willing to walk with you in the next place, and talk about the purpose of this trip while walking."
Liu Hongji's words were exactly what Li Shimin wanted, and several people were not in a hurry to get on the horse, but led the horse slowly, and Liu Hongji introduced the intention of this trip to Li Shimin while walking.
------
After walking for a while, Guanyin saw that it was past noon, and she said to Li Shimin,
"Brother Shimin, when you meet Brother Liu for the first time, you must have a lot to talk about, if it's past noon today, everyone is hungry, let's eat some dry food, take a look and leave, you can also talk while eating."
After being reminded by Guanyin, Li Shimin also felt that there was a feeling of hunger in his stomach, and he should eat something before continuing to hurry. He ordered Lu Zheng and Hu to take down the felt mat from the horse, spread it in an open place on the side of the road, and a few people sat on the ground, ready to eat something before leaving.
Li Shimin, Guanyin and Liu Hongji sat together, and Lu Zheng and Hu Cong sat together.
Qin Lan and Shiqin served Li Shimin, Guanyin, and Liu Hongji to dinner, preparing wheat cakes, bacon and buttermilk for them.
When Liu Hongji was dining, he gave a detailed introduction to Li Shimin and Guanyin.
------
This Liu Hong is basically a native of Chiyang County, Yongzhou County, and his father is the late Liu Sheng, the assassin of Hezhou, who is now five years old Chinese New Year's Eve, nearly 20 years older than Li Shimin.
When he was young, he was not engaged in industry, and visited famous teachers all year round to practice martial arts. After the death of Liu Sheng, the assassin of Hezhou, Liu Hongji inherited his father's grace and was awarded the right servant from the seventh rank.
When Yang Guang was conquering Liaodong, Liu Hongji was recruited to go on the expedition, but when he arrived in Fenyin County, Liu Hongji calculated the time and was unable to reach Liaodong as required.
According to the law of the Great Sui, if a soldier misses the deadline, he should be beheaded according to the law. That is to say, Liu Hongji and others, even if they rushed to Liaodong with great difficulty, it would be a capital crime when they arrived at the place.
------
In desperation, Liu Hongji discussed countermeasures with his subordinates, and there were three ways in front of them at that time:
First, he still rushed to Liaodong and was beheaded when he arrived at the ground.
The second is to flee separately, which will affect the family members to sit together.
The third is to commit a minor crime on the spot and be arrested and imprisoned by the local government.
------
After weighing the pros and cons, everyone felt that it was most cost-effective to commit a small crime on the spot.
So everyone teamed up to buy a ploughing cow in a nearby village, lest the government not know, so they slaughtered the cow in front of the villagers, and then Liu Hongji led his subordinates to eat a big meal.
According to the law of the Great Sui, it is sinful to slaughter ploughing cattle. Zhuang Shang Lizheng saw Liu Hongji and others killing cattle and eating meat in Zhuangshang, so he had to report to the government, and the government arrested Liu Hongji and his subordinates and threw them into prison.
When Liu Hongji's family heard that he had been arrested and imprisoned, they spent money to redeem him from prison a year later.
After Liu Hongji was released from prison, he died in the rivers and lakes, stealing horses for a living, and made a living from it.
------
Some time ago, Liu Hongji heard that Li Yuan had been arrested and sent to post a notice in Jiangzhou to recruit bandits, and that those who returned to the thieves could be included in the military register, and the leaders of the thieves could also be awarded official positions.
Liu Hongji thought to himself, he was also born in a famous family, and he has a martial arts, so he can't steal horses for a lifetime? How will there be faces to see the dead ancestors and fathers in the future?
He felt that this was an opportunity, so he wanted to go to Li Yuan, but he couldn't decide how to do it for a while.
If you surrender in the name of an ordinary thief, although you are exempted from the death penalty and have a military status, you can only be an ordinary soldier, but it is difficult to get Li Yuan's trust and reuse, and if you want to mix up your personal appearance, I don't know if it will be the year of the monkey.
------
In recent days, Liu Hongji has been wandering around the arrest embassy office, considering whether there is a good way to get promoted?
In the process of going back and forth, Liu Hongji saw that there was a young man with extraordinary bearing, who often went in and out of the arrest embassy office, so he bribed a guard of the official office and asked who the young man was.
The guard of the official office told Liu Hongji that this was Li Shimin, the second prince of Tang Guogong, and praised Li Shimin in a foggy manner, saying that he was strong in martial arts and praised him as a god.
------
Although Liu Hongji saw that Li Shimin was not an ordinary person, he did not fully believe that Li Shimin was as powerful as the guards of the official office. He wanted to try to get in touch with Li Shimin and wanted to give it a try.
This morning, Liu Hongji saw Li Shimin taking people out, so he secretly followed behind, wanting to see the opportunity to act, so he came up with the idea of blocking the road and robbing the horse.
------
Li Shimin and Guanyinwen, listening to Liu Hongji's introduction of himself, found that this person is not only strong in martial arts, but also very scheming. Judging from his cattle slaughter to evade military service, he was able to weigh the pros and cons of doing things, and was able to come up with appropriate strategies to deal with them.
Li Shimin saw that Liu Hongji was neither humble nor arrogant, calm and wise, and in the face of Li Shimin and Guanyin, he talked and laughed freely, without the slightest hint of flattery, and his bearing was not like ordinary people. He valued Liu Hongji more and more in his heart, and felt that this person was worth befriending.
