125 Archery

In the early morning, the air in the cottage is extremely fresh. Xue Yi took a deep breath, feeling a little intoxicated in his heart.

In this cannibal cottage, there are not so many things to worry about, everyone is only for one thing - food. As long as there is enough food, there are no more worries. In a certain way, this kind of life is what Xue Yi yearns for.

But he can't do that yet, he still has something to do, he still has someone to worry about.

Xue Yi wandered around the cottage and saw that the men, except for the old man and the children who were too young, all carried a black bow on their shoulders.

Xue Yi suddenly remembered that the old man who made the weapon had reminded him a long time ago to let himself learn archery, but he had not learned it because he didn't have time. Now there is a strong bow on top of that gauntlet, and it would be a waste not to learn the art of bowing.

Thinking of this, Xue Yi immediately walked towards an open space behind the stockade.

It's a training ground where many kids and young people are just starting to train.

Woo Woo -

Xue Yi saw an adult cannibal in the distance firing three arrows in a row, and all of them hit the bull's-eye.

The people around them all laughed and screamed, apparently praising the man for shooting the arrow.

The man put away his bow and said a few words to the children, who nodded their heads and each of them drew his bow, mounted his arrow, and shot at the target. Fifty meters away, everyone can get on the target, and none of them miss the target. This was an eye-opener for Xue Yi.

The archery of these cannibals is much stronger than that of the outside world.

The adult who taught archery to the children saw Xue Yi coming, and he called Xue Yi a few times, probably to say hello. The children also turned their heads and shouted to greet Xue Yi.

However, no matter how Xue Yi looked, he felt that the gaze in their eyes was like looking at delicious food.

Xue Yi also nodded and greeted them, and then called the black lock in the distance over, and said to the black lock: "I want to learn archery, you help me be a translator." ”

Hei Suo, like Wu Yingzi, never questioned Xue Yi's words. He spoke to the cannibal who taught him the art of arching. The cannibal seemed to look at Xue Yi with interest.

The children gathered around Xue Yi curiously.

The cannibal who taught archery asked a child to take out a black bow and a black arrow from a stone house and give it to Xue Yi.

The black bow was made from a tree branch near the cottage, and it was tough and resilient. The bowstring is made of the tendons of a beast, and with Xue Yi's strength, even with only one percent of the strength, it is constantly pulled. The black arrow is also made of that kind of tree branch, and the tip of the arrow is extremely sharp, and the body of the arrow is extremely thin, so as to ensure that the arrow encounters as little resistance as possible when flying.

Of course, these black arrows used for practice are non-poisonous.

The cannibal said a few words to Xue Yi, and the black lock translated to Xue Yi: "Aim at the arrow target, the eyes, the arrow body and the target, three points and one line." ”

Xue Yi did so, pulled out the black bow, aimed at the arrow target fifty meters away, and followed the body of the arrow with his eyes to look at the arrow target.

The cannibal said a few more words, and the black lock translated: "Keep your hands steady, release the arrow!"

As soon as Xue Yi's right hand loosened, the black arrow roared and flew fifty meters away.

Not surprisingly, the arrow was a bit off-the-beaten.

The children around laughed. Isn't it funny that even these children can shoot at the target, and this adult is so far away?

The cannibal who taught the bow also shook his head slightly, and then said a few words with a smile.

Hei Suo said: "The first time you practice archery, it is inevitable that there will be deviations, as long as you work hard and practice more." One more arrow. ”

Xue Yi put the arrow on the wind, his eyes aimed at the arrow target. But somehow, he always felt that it was difficult to shoot at the target like this, and even the right hand that drew the bow was a little unstable.

Xue Yi simply didn't aim at it, but extended his soul.

Now his soul could stretch for hundreds of meters, and he could easily reach the target.

Under the deliberate attention of his soul, the target was incomparably clear, almost as if it were right in front of him.

Xue Yi's right hand loosened, and with a bang, the arrow went like a meteor, snapped on the ground, and hit the red heart of the arrow target.

Those cannibals were all stunned.

Xue Yi hit an arrow, his heart was happy, he took three arrows in a row, and released three arrows in a row.

Bang Bang - all three arrows hit the heart.

......

The cannibal's eyes suddenly fell to the ground. Just now, I saw that Xue Yi's first arrow didn't even hit the target, how could he hit three arrows in a blink of an eye? And the arrow hit the red heart. Could it be that he knew archery in the first place?

The cannibal who taught the archery looked at Xue Yi in surprise, and denied his guess in his heart.

In terms of Xue Yi's posture with a bow, he was obviously a layman, and at a glance, he knew that he hadn't touched a bow much before.

But how to explain that the three arrows in a row hit the heart?

He has lived in the cannibal since he was a child, and he has seen more than five or six talented archers, and there are also those who can accurately hit the heart with the first shot, but he has never seen an arrow like Xue Yi hit the red heart.

Shaking his head helplessly, the cannibals who taught archery could only attribute this to talent.

Although it is a bit far-fetched to explain it in terms of talent, how can it be explained otherwise?

One by one, the children surrounded Xue Yi in amazement, and said nonsense.

They have been practicing archery for a long time, but they can't hit the heart with an arrow, and they are already happy to hit once in a while. But it is strange that this foreigner learned archery for the first time, and he actually hit the heart with an arrow.

The cannibal who taught archery was surprised and said a few words to Xue Yi.

Black Lock Translation: "You are the most talented, he is going to teach the second stage. ”

Xue Yi was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately nodded in agreement.

However, this second stage is not as easy to learn as the most beginner. The second stage of archery is a series of arrows, one arrow is just out, and the other arrow is fired immediately after, and the emphasis is on speed. Although Xue Yi has a soul positioning, the first arrow can always be shot accurately, but when the second arrow is fired, he is a little in a hurry, either the arrow is off, or the bow is crooked, and there will always be such and such problems.

This continuous arrow originally requires a lot of practice, and when the action is proficient to a certain level, it is possible to shoot continuously and ensure the hit rate.

The cannibal who taught the archery technique was relieved to see that Xue Yi always had problems.

This at least shows that Xue Yi is still a normal person.

It would be freak to be able to make no mistakes even in the second phase at the beginning.

In the next few days, Wu Yingzi and Ding Li's injuries have recovered halfway. And Xue Yi and Black Lock's recovery power is amazing, in just four or five days, the injuries on the two of them that were scratched by the anchor claw are all healed, leaving only some red marks.

Xue Yi has seized the time to practice archery in the past few days, although there will always be mistakes in the second stage of practice at the beginning, but Xue Yi's practice is extremely hard, and in just five days, his archery has improved a lot. Although it is not as errorless as a normal cannibal predator, it is no problem to shoot ten arrows in a row.

In this way, even if the second stage is completed, you only need to practice regularly in the future, and you will naturally make more progress.

This is followed by the third stage.

The third stage consists of multiple arrows, which is simply a single shot that fires two or more arrows.

With a large number of basic exercises in front of him, Xue Yi has made rapid progress in multiple shots with one arrow, and in just three days, he can complete two shots with one arrow and accurately hit the target, although the hit rate is much lower than that of a single shot, but it is already commendable to progress to this point in three days.

On the eighth day, the content of Xue Yi's study changed again.

That's the fourth stage of the march – shooting a living thing.

First shoot some small animals when you run slowly, then shoot when you run fast. This is the hardest part of archery.

For two days in a row, Xue Yi spent the rest of his time on the fourth stage of practice, except for eating and contemplating. In two days, Xue Yi was already able to launch a moving prey in a single shot when running fast. Although the hit rate is only more than sixty percent, such progress has shocked all cannibals.

On the evening of the tenth day, the cannibal archery teacher couldn't help but scream loudly when he saw Xue Yi firing three arrows in a row and hitting three flying birds flying in the air while running fast, obviously applauding for Xue Yi.

Then he came to Xue Yi, patted Xue Yi on the shoulder and said a bunch of words.

Black Lock translated: "He said you were the most gifted person he had ever met. Ten days to practice archery, we are the first cannibals. You can now go out hunting, and after a long period of actual combat, your bow skills will be more sophisticated.

Xue Yi was a little puzzled.

He had also heard about archery before, and knew that in addition to these things, archery also had the skill of hand-to-hand combat with the bow as a weapon. Why is there no fighting skill among these cannibals?

After thinking about it for a while, Xue Yi thought, maybe it was because these cannibals didn't know any fighting skills, but they just relied on animal instincts to fight. Xue Yi was also relieved.

At this time, Ding Li and Wu Yingzi's injuries had recovered a lot, and Xue Yi and the others also planned to leave tomorrow.

However, at this time, something happened among the cannibals, which touched Xue Yi.

In the evening of that day, the two and a half children of the cannibal tribe were eleven or twelve years old, a boy and a girl.

They walked hand in hand to Hei Suo's father, the previous chief, and said something that surprised Xue Yi, Ding Li, and Wu Yingzi: "We love each other, and we want to get married." (Of course, these words were only understood by Xue Yi and Xue Yi, who were translated by the black lock.) )

Only eleven or twelve years old, this is just a child in the outside world. Even if the cannibals get married early, they won't get married at the age of eleven or twelve, right?

Hei Suo's father looked at Xue Yi and the others in surprise, laughed a few times, and said a few words.

Translated, it is: human beings are inherently animals, and mutual love is also the instinct of animals, and it is the ability given by nature. Therefore, as long as two people love each other, no matter how young they are, and no matter what their background is, they can be together.

When Xue Yi heard these words, his heart immediately fluctuated......
