"Interesting, interesting." Nangong Qing stroked his palms and smiled.

He kind of understood why the arrows had to be wrapped in white paper.

Once the arrow is caught in the rain, water stains are left on the white paper, so you can tell if you win or lose.

Li Feibai sneered in his heart.

This He Yingwu is the secretary of the military department, and he is extremely skilled in bow and arrow.

And Zhao Qiancheng is just a person in the rivers and lakes, this way of competition is actually unfair.

But Nangong Qing also seemed to want to raise the prestige of the court in front of Zhao Qiancheng, so he agreed without thinking about it.

"Well, whoever wins, I will reward 100 gold."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He Yingwu bowed and saluted.

"It's too hard, no one can do it, right?" The officials in the audience began to discuss.

"If you can't do it, how dare Lord He bring it up?"

"Although this Zhao Qiancheng's cultivation is superb, this kind of kung fu is probably not as good as Master He."

"I agree. This kind of competition method not only tests the speed of the arrows, but also has to listen to the wind and defend the position, so that the arrows can avoid the heavy rain that keeps dripping, which Zhao Qiancheng may not be able to do."

"Yes, looking at his invincible appearance, I just want to wait for him to make a fool of himself."

Everyone was talking, but Zhao Qiancheng stood still.

"Pavilion Master Zhao, are you coming first, or am I coming first?" He Yingwu asked with a smile.

He looked a little smug, as if he had a chance to win.

"You go first!" Zhao Qiancheng replied lightly.

"Okay." He Yingwu is extremely confident.

He backhanded his bow and arrow, aiming at the gazebo opposite.

The forbidden army immediately surrounded Nangong Qing.

Although the arrows did not have arrows, just in case, they still used a human wall to protect Nangong Qing behind him.

He Yingwu didn't shoot the arrow immediately, he closed his eyes and his ears twitched.

Listening.

Listen and argue.

He's looking for a suitable route and shooting the arrow at the right speed so that he doesn't get caught in the rain.

The action of the arrow lasted for a long time, and everyone waited with bated breath.

Finally, He Yingwu's eyes opened and his right hand loosened.

"倏」

The arrow passed through the rain like a meteor and slammed into the pillars of the pavilion, its tail shaking.

"Okay."

Some civil officials began to applaud, and the arrows without arrows and stone pillars seemed to them to be very powerful.

These literati didn't know that any master above the Xuan rank could do this.

"Someone, go...... Go check Lord Ho's arrows and see ...... See if it rains?" Nangong Qing shook her head and stuttered in her mouth to order.

"Yes." Feng Songfei turned his head to Wu Hongxian and said, "Go and have a look."

Holding an umbrella, Wu Hongxian took a few eunuchs to cross the arch bridge and arrived at the pavilion opposite.

They took a closer look at the arrows wrapped in white paper.

"Your Majesty, Lord Ho's arrows have not been stained with a drop of rain." Wu Hongxian shouted loudly in the gazebo.

Hearing this, Nangong Qing immediately praised loudly: "Okay, it's worthy of me...... The military department is still in the book, and he has the skills."

At this moment, the generals in the field just gave their applause.

"Lord He has good means, and he is already invincible."

"I want to see how Zhao Qiancheng wins?"

The crowd talked.

With a grin, He Yingwu glanced at Zhao Qiancheng defiantly.

"Pavilion Master Zhao, it's your turn."

Slowly stepping out of the ranks, Zhao Qiancheng picked up another arrow, and gently slashed the arrow with his right hand.

He didn't take the bow.

"Lord He, Zhao has a question."

"You say."

"Isn't it true that if someone's arrow gets caught in the rain, it will be lost?"

Hearing this, there was a burst of boos from below.

The rules have been explained very clearly, and the ministers don't know why Zhao Qiancheng still asks again.

Sitting

Li Feibai smiled slightly, he knew that Zhao Qiancheng would have a way to win, and he was not worried at all.

"Not bad." He Yingwu still responded.

"You said it."

After that, Zhao Qiancheng shook his hand casually.

The arrow disappeared into his hand like a ghost.

"Whew"

The crowd heard only a scream, and the next moment, his arrow had been nailed to the stone pillar of the pavilion.

However, at this time, there was only one arrow on the stone pillar, and it was still the position that He Yingwu shot at just now.

Seeing this, Nangong Ding's face changed slightly and stood up silently.

Perhaps he was the first to see the clues.

"Where are his arrows?" Seeing that there was only one arrow on the stone pillar, the civil and military officials who didn't know why opened their mouths one after another.

"yes, why is it gone?"

He Yingwu didn't react for a while, and looked at it intently.

And Wu Hongxian in the pavilion was already so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

Feng Songfei stepped forward and shouted at the pavilion, "What's the matter?"

Coming back to his senses, Wu Hongxian hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, Pavilion Lord Zhao's arrow shot at the location of Lord He's arrow, and the latter couldn't stand the force and had already passed through the stone pillar and fell to the ground. At this time...... On the stone pillar at this time is the arrow of the Zhao Pavilion Lord."

"What?"

Hearing Wu Hongxian's explanation, the officials were shocked.

"This ...... How is that possible?"

Some of the ministers were sharp-eyed, and they saw an arrow lying on the ground outside the pavilion, and the rain was pouring madly on it.

"Look, Lord Ho's arrows are on the ground, already wet from the rain."

Everyone followed the prestige and successively learned what happened.

Zhao Qiancheng didn't raise his eyes, didn't say a word, and walked back to his position silently.

Wu Hongxian checked Zhao Qiancheng's arrows again and found that the white paper had not been rained.

"Your Majesty, Pavilion Master Zhao's arrows are clean and have not been stained with rain."

As soon as this statement came out, it was tantamount to announcing that He Yingwu had lost.

His face was flushed, his teeth were clenched, and he arched his hand at Nangong Qingyi, and returned to his seat in a panic like a lost dog.

How proud I was before the competition, how embarrassed I am now.

But after all, he was the secretary of the military department, and the ministers did not dare to ridicule him.

But the silent silence made He Yingwu even more embarrassed.

Nangong Ding solemnly looked at Zhao Qiancheng, who was also a Heavenly Rank master, and he thought that he couldn't do it like him.

I can't help but think a little higher at him.

It's a pity, it's a pity that the coach of the trip to Baijiang is not me, otherwise Zhao Qiancheng is now my person, not his Nangong Mountain.

Nangong was resentful in his heart.

Nangong Qing, who was slightly drunk, couldn't help but be impressed by Zhao Qiancheng's methods when he saw him.

He propped up the desk with one hand and stood up with a shaky voice: "Okay, Pavilion Master Zhao has a good means, I can be regarded as an eye-opener. Someone will be rewarded with a hundred gold."

"Your Majesty, he's cheating."

Zheng Gongquan, the squire of the military department, stood up.

Anyone can not speak for He Yingwu, but he can't, after all, He Yingwu is his top boss.

"Tricks?" Nangong Qing asked.

"Wei Chen believes that according to the rules, Lord He has done that the arrows are not wet, and they have accurately shot on the stone pillar, at most the two are tied, and there is no win or loss."

As soon as the words came out, among the hundreds of officials, some people of insight couldn't help but boo.

This performance, which is higher and which is lower, is clear at a glance, and Zheng Gongquan has to force He Yingwu to regain face.

As everyone knows, this is the biggest failure.

"When I made my move, I asked Lord Ho if anyone's arrow caught in the rain would be considered a loss, and he replied yes." Zhao Qiancheng said coldly.
