Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Hundred Steps Through the Yang
Sima Chao knelt on the ground, proclaimed the command, stood up and said loudly to Lan Yu: "General Lan, the little courage, I will ask for advice on the bow and arrow." ”
Lan Yu nodded coldly, but did not speak.
A moment later, an arrow target was set up about 180 paces away from the school grounds.
Sima Chao held the four-stone strong bow in his left hand, and his right hand pulled out a feather arrow from the quiver on the side of his waist, opened the bow to lead the arrow, and shot an arrow with a "whoosh".
The three feathered arrows were like flying, and after three "poof, poof, poof" three sounds, they all hit the target in the distance.
Seeing that Sima Chao had such a means, Lan Yu couldn't help but be quite unexpected, and said in his heart: A guard in King Ning's mansion has such a method, it seems that he is bent on searching for strange people. From this point of view, what the sour Confucian Fang Xiaoru said is not chasing the wind.
After Sima Chao bowed down to thank him, he walked back behind Zhu Quan with a smug face. Zhu Quan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Sima Chao give him a long face like this, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I will reward you when I return home." ”
Jing Jun looked at the Yan King Zhu Di in the distance and looked at Zhu Quan coldly, and said in his heart: The second brother is bent on showing off his means, but I am afraid that it may not be a good thing to fall in the eyes of His Royal Highness the King of Yan.
Zhu Yuanzhang also practiced bow and arrow skills when he was young, and he had some insight into this way, and at this time he saw that Sima Chao's feather arrows could fly out of one hundred and eighty steps, and he already knew that the bow he used was only more powerful than the ordinary longbow, and he couldn't help but be amazed by such a clever beaded arrow technique, and nodded and smiled: "I don't want to have such a good shooter in Quan'er's mansion." He turned to Lan Yu and smiled, "It's up to you to do it." ”
Lan Yu made up his mind at this time to suppress King Ning's prestige, so he bowed down and said, "Weichen has always been used to shooting arrows right away. After Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and agreed, he came to the front of his red horse, turned over the horse, ran dozens of steps, turned his horse, galloped in front of everyone, raised his hand and raised his bow, and the feather arrow flew out of the string, but it was towards the air.
The spectators thought that he was going to shoot the arrow target at a gallop, but when they saw him shooting diagonally on his back, they couldn't help but look into the air. But I saw the arrow fly out, and with a soft "poof" sound, the feathers flew in the air, but it turned out that the arrow hit a flying bird flying in mid-air.
The fist-sized dead bird fell to the ground with a feathered arrow that pierced through, causing dozens of onlookers to secretly breathe.
Sima Chao shot with a strong bow and hit the arrow target, which was already commendable, but the arrow target was a half-human-sized static dead thing after all, but the blue jade horse galloped and shot the bird with an arrow, which was naturally obvious at a glance.
Although Zhu Quan was very unaccustomed to Lan Yude's arrogance, he couldn't help but be secretly convinced at this time: this kid was fighting with his bare hands on the ground, and it turned out that he was so powerful immediately, no wonder he was so arrogant, he really had the means.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing and said: "Di'er, Quan'er, if you and other subordinates are not convinced, you can compete with Lan Yu." ”
Sima Chao didn't expect that his hard-working bow and arrow skills were like child's play for Lan Yu, and he couldn't help but blush and embarrassed, and when he saw Lan Yu's cold gaze again, he couldn't help but step forward to fight, his sleeves tightened, but he was pulled by his righteous brother Jing Jun beside him, and he only heard him whisper: "Your Majesty is talking about the two highnesses, and look at the skills of His Royal Highness Yan Wang's subordinates, don't be too sharp." ”
Zhu Quan heard what Jing Jun said, "the edge is too exposed", and his heart sank, and suddenly remembered that if Sima Chao and Jing Jun showed their strength too much today, it really did not match the identity of the palace guard, if so, not only the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, but also Zhu Di would be wary of himself, thinking of this, he immediately smiled and said to Zhu Di: "Fourth brother, the younger brother has already lost for a while, so I will look at the fourth brother's methods and help the younger brother find the field." [East^Fang&网 .com]" He spoke at this time, as if he was sharing the honor and disgrace with Zhu Di.
Zhu Di saw that Lan Yu was so tricky today, and he knew in his heart that he was loyal to the prince Zhu Biao, and wanted to use martial arts to subdue himself and Zhu Quan. If he should not fight, he will be underestimated again. Thinking of this, he turned his head to a guard beside him with flashing eyes: "Zhu Neng, you and Zhang Yu will fight against General Lan together, even if you lose this king, you won't blame." ”
Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng are Zhu Di's confidants in the Yanwang Mansion, loyal to him, and planned to fight to the death even if he gave his life, but when he heard Zhu Di say this, he couldn't help but be grateful, and after bowing down to receive the order, he found two war horses and turned over.
Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Di say this, remembered Lan Yu's bow-opening skills, and turned his head to the three people in the field: "The martial arts competition is not a battlefield fight, don't use a bow and arrow to hurt people." ”
Zhang Yu had no power to fight back against Zhu Quan before, and he was deeply resentful, but at this time, when he saw that Lan Yu Yaowu, he was even more furious, and he slapped his horse forward and galloped towards Lan Yu. Zhu Neng followed with a prancing horse, holding a big knife to cover Zhang Yu's left side.
Lan Yu held a spear to meet him, and when Zhang Yu's right hand just raised the whip, his legs slammed into the horse's belly, and the red horse slammed forward, and a horse gun stabbed towards Zhang Yu's back heart as quickly as a poisonous snake out of a hole. His riding skills were extremely exquisite, and at this time, the mount accelerated violently, and before Zhang Yugang's whip fell, he had already passed him, and naturally dodged the opponent's earth-shattering whip slam.
Zhu Neng's martial arts were still above Zhang Yu, and seeing that the blue jade prancing horse was in a hurry, he knew that it was not good in his heart, so he slashed it down without thinking about it, and went straight to the blue jade head.
Zhang Yu heard the sound of the wind behind him, and knew that it was powerful, but he didn't have time to turn around at this time, he hid in a kick, left the horse pedal with his left foot, and his body was lying on the right side of the mount. Immediately afterwards, the big knife in Zhu Neng's hand also narrowly brushed against Lan Yu's shoulder, cutting the armor on his shoulder and almost chopping off his arm.
The three horses staggered past, galloped dozens of paces, and then turned their heads to face each other. Lan Yu looked down at the crack in the armor on his right shoulder, and he was also secretly frightened, it turned out that the fierceness of Zhu Neng's knife just now was also beyond his expectations, if it wasn't for the fatal knife to dodge, Zhang Yu would definitely not have escaped his thunderous and lightning shot just now.
Zhu Quan saw that these three people were only in this staggered room, and it was extremely thrilling, and he couldn't help but move in his heart, and whispered to Jing Jun beside him: "It seems that the fight on this horse is superb in riding and martial arts." When he said this, he couldn't help but think in his heart: Lan Yu, this kid is fighting with his bare hands on the ground, he is not my opponent, he is like a pig's head, but he is so powerful immediately. If I were to fight him like this, I would be afraid that in one or two moves, I would have to kill this kid.
Jing Jun bowed slightly and said: "That's right, the knight has a limited place to show his horse, and it is difficult to make all kinds of actions such as flashing and moving, and the advantages and disadvantages of riding skills and horsepower are the way to win." ”
That Zhang Yu was an extremely brave person, just now escaped from the blue jade spear, not only was he not afraid, but even aroused his ferocity, the horse ran towards the blue jade again, the steel whip hit the opponent like a storm, and made up his mind to take his life.
Zhu Neng was wandering around Lan Yu at this time, and from time to time he saw Lan Yu's vital point and swung his knife to slash hard, attack it and save it, and resolve Zhang Yu's danger. Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng often learn martial arts in the Yanwang Mansion every day, and they are familiar with each other, at this time, one is completely against Lan Yu's killing moves, and they are in a posture of wanting to die together, but the other is disturbing the enemy's mind, true and false suddenly come so suddenly, Rao is Lan Yu's martial arts are superb, but they are also helpless, more than a dozen moves have passed, Zhang Yu and Lan Yu are in danger again.
Seeing that the two subordinates and Lan Yu were killed, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, couldn't help but come to Zhu Yuanzhang's side and said in a low voice: "Father, the son admits defeat." He said this because he didn't want the two right-hand men to make a mistake and give their lives, but it was also heartfelt, Lan Yu's amazing archery skills revealed just now gave Zhu Yuanzhang a strict order not to use it, if it weren't for this, with the red horse under his crotch, if he opened the distance and opened the bow and arrows, he was afraid of Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng had already died.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard his son admit defeat, he waved his hand and shouted, "Stop." ”
The three of them in the field heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, so they had no choice but to give up, separated from the horses, and glared at each other hatefully.
Zhu Quan saw that this blue jade was actually a black hand that took people's lives, and decided in his heart that he would no longer let Sima Chao and Jing Jun compete with him, so he immediately looked at this blue jade coldly and was silent.
Zhu Di saw that this Lan Yu was bent on getting along with his two brothers today, and couldn't help but be annoyed, turned his head and saw that Zhu Quan was silent, and looked at Sima Chao standing next to him with an angry look at Lan Yu, his heart moved, but he smiled at Zhu Quan with a smile on his face: "Brother Fool's subordinates are useless, you can only look at Brother Quan's means." After a pause, he looked at Sima Chao again and said with a smile: "In the opinion of a foolish brother, your two guards are still one or two enemies, so as not to give up their lives in vain." It turned out that he had seen Sima Chao's archery skills quite superb before, and he already had a jealousy and hatred for Zhu Quan, seeing that Sima Chao was a person who was impatient, he deliberately made provocative remarks, hoping that he would sacrifice his life to fight alone with Lan Yu and give his life under his hands, so that his fierce brother would inevitably tie up with Lan Yu and Tie Liang Zi.
