Chapter 2: A Bow

While everyone was talking, the sky had already darkened, and a girl with a silk scarf on her face in the crowd said to the middle-aged scribe, "Daddy, it's getting late, let's settle down first." ”

This girl has a graceful figure and beautiful lines, and her whole body is covered in the wind and sand, and it is estimated that she has long been uncomfortable and impatient. She wasn't very interested in swords, she just wanted to find a place to wash up as soon as possible.

The middle-aged scribe looked around for a moment, and said with a smile: "What Jing'er said is that everyone is destined to meet each other, but unfortunately there is no wine shop inn here, otherwise the old man will make an east banquet to invite everyone, for now, let's find a place to live first." Then he stared at Li Chengtang and said, "Anyway, Brother Li has already found it." The meaning of the words is nothing more than that he can't escape.

Li Chengtang looked at the "swordless old man" He Yan and said, "Senior Qin, why don't we still live in Ah Ge's house." "When they first went out of the customs, they lived together in Ah Re's house, Li Chengtang was inexperienced and not good at communicating, and Qin Haotian and Ah Ge talked very well when they borrowed it that time.

Age is the owner of the yurt on the other side of the pond, the owner of the water weeds, the patriarch of the Kazakh tribe. Azhe's original name was Azhestan, which means steppe lion in the Kazakh people, but everyone is used to calling him Azhe. He was a very passionate person.

The middle-aged scribes and their gang had no place to live, so they accompanied them. Ah Ge and his family had already heard the voice and came out, and leaned over with his right hand to his chest to greet everyone. This is a welcome gift for the Kazakhs, and everyone returns the greetings.

Na Age was tall, burly and strong, with a square face and a slight beard on his face, which really looked like a steppe lion. I was very happy to see them coming, and said in a loud voice to Qin Haotian: "Brother went to Shazhou smoothly this time?!" Looking at Li Chengtang's appearance again, he smiled and said, "A handsome young man has become a gray boy!" "He often interacts with Han Chinese and speaks Chinese fluently.

Next to her, a little Kazakh girl wearing an otter skin sunshade hat secretly looked at Li Chengtang, the little girl was wearing a dress with thin shoulders on the outside. The dress is colorful and has multiple layers of ruffles on the hem. Xiao Man's waist is tied with some colorful ornaments, accompanied by the tinkling of the slender waist. Big eyes and long eyelashes look like grass growing on the banks of two pools of clear water. There was a touch of plateau shame on his face, and he looked like he wanted to speak.

Ah Re smiled: "Yiyi, don't say hello to the guests yet." "This Yiyi is the daughter of Azhe, and her name is Ayiyi, which means moon in Kazakh. The last time she went out of the customs, Li Chengtang talked to her the most, and the little girl was enthusiastic and lively to ask questions, and she liked the things of the Central Plains very much.

Ayi Yijiao said in a coquettish voice: "I've seen Uncle Qin." Then he said hello to everyone, then he turned around and said to Li Chengtang happily: "Brother Li, I see that your face is sunburned, I have a special sunscreen here, I will go and get it for you." With that, he ran away.

Kazakhs value friendship and hospitality, and everyone greets each other. Ah Ge welcomed everyone into the courtyard, fetched clean water, and asked everyone to wash up. Then invite everyone to sit down in the yurt and bring out the best food in the house and be entertained. Aje told everyone that today happened to be the "Eid al-Adha" of the Kazakh people, and invited everyone to participate in the evening activities. After a while, the Kazakhs gathered and selected yellow-headed and white-bodied sheep to slaughter and prepare for dinner. Guests are free to move around.

Ayiyi found sunscreen and sat next to Li Chengtang, and applied it to Li Chengtang's face like a little sister. Li Chengtang didn't have so many rivers and lakes, and felt that Ayiyi was as amiable as a little sister, so he let her play around with her face. Get along like a family.

In fact, Li Chengtang is not a ruthless person who rejects people, but he doesn't know how to interact with people when he first enters the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't talk much. His ancestor's family motto is "Dust with light, with the times, help the people of the world, and the king of the country." ”

This is the law of their Li family's accession to the WTO from ancient times to the present. Li Chengtang has been nurtured by his family since he was a child and knows the meaning of this. Their family has lived in seclusion for generations, and the rules for joining the WTO are very strict, and the direct family members are only allowed to enter the WTO for generations without the arrangement of the patriarch, and there are four inheritance principles of "not entering the prosperous times, entering the troubled times, not entering the unsupportable king, and entering the world if there is a decline and death". Since Li Chengtang has entered the WTO, he naturally adheres to the heart of harmony and light and dust to travel the world. It is his principle to help the people and make friends and treat others gently. It's just that after all, I am young and have little experience, and I don't know how to deal with things when I encounter them, so I sometimes feel anxious.

Everyone sat around and communicated, and Li Chengtang probably knew the origin of the middle-aged scribe group. The middle-aged scribe's name was Ran Fei. The veil girl is his daughter named Ran Jingjing, at this time Ran Jingjing took off the veil, she looked round and jade, and she was also a pretty beauty. The young man with the tiger's back is his nephew, his name is Meng Lang, as his name suggests, he does have some Meng Lang between his actions, but his personality is also a bold man.

The rest of the people are the disciples and entourage of Ran Fei's family, and they are all first-class masters in the rivers and lakes. The Ran family is also a big martial arts family in Daozhou, Henan, and they have all kinds of businesses on the rivers and lakes. Although Ran Fei himself is not a top master in martial arts, he is a righteous and squandering money, making friends with heroes in the world, and people in the rivers and lakes can sell him a little affection. The reason why Ran Fei led everyone to visit the Mogao Grottoes this time is also related to the origin of family learning.

After Ayiyi smeared sunscreen oil on Li Chengtang, she screamed one by one of the Li family's brothers, asking him to tell what he saw and heard along the way to the sandbank, and the Kazakhs were unrestrained and did not see any twisting. Li Chengtang is a few years older than her, treats her as a little sister, and also likes her temperament, and relaxes physically and mentally. He took off the black bow on his body and put it at his side, and the heavy sword was still on his back.

"Brother Li, your bow is so beautiful, I've never seen it on the grassland!" Ayiyi changed the topic, looked at his bow and said suddenly. The steppe people rode horses and bent bows, and the Kazakhs naturally liked bows and arrows.

Everyone was talking about rumors and all kinds of gossip, and they were paying attention to the young man, but they were suddenly attracted by this sentence, and their eyes were on the bow. The "swordless old man" Qin Haotian was closer, staring at the bow next to Li Chengtang.

At this time, the sky has darkened, the torches around are gradually rising, under the firelight, the inky black ancient bow is presented with a touch of color, the color is gorgeous, there are faintly two colorful phoenixes from both sides of the bow body to the middle of the circulation, the gem at the foot of the bow exudes a sun-colored luster, shining.

Ayiyi looked very fond of it, picked up the bow, looked at Li Chengtang and said coquettishly: "Brother Li, what is this bow made of, why didn't you see you with arrows?" "I remember the last time she looked at this bow was nothing special, and now she can't help but be curious.

Li Chengtang smiled softly: "There are no arrows in this bow, my grandfather said that the archery method was lost, and this time I came out to find someone destined for this bow." ”

Ayiyi said strangely: "How can you shoot without arrows?" She tried to pull the bowstring and open it hard, but her pretty face turned red, but the bowstring did not move. What is this made of? I can't open it at all. Ayiyi felt very aggrieved, and obviously used all her strength.

Li Chengtang patted her on the shoulder like a brother and said, "I can't pull this bow, let alone you." ”

"Old man without a sword" Qin Haotian said in surprise: "Old man come and try it." Then he took the ancient bow from Ayiyi's hand, and pulled it with both hands, but the bowstring still didn't move.

Qin Haotian was a little embarrassed, but he had enough true qi internal strength and shouted: "Open." "I didn't know that the bowstring only trembled slightly, and still didn't open half of the bow.

Everyone was shocked, with the reputation of the "swordless old man" in the rivers and lakes, he must be a master of more than nine ranks, and he is already in the realm of a small grandmaster, but now he can't even pull this bow, what kind of material is it made of.

The warriors of the rivers and lakes use their strength to prove the Tao and evaluate the status of the rivers and lakes by their rank. Only those who have more than seven sections can be called ordinary masters of the rivers and lakes, and those who have nine sections can open a sect and become a hegemon. The ninth stage is cultivated again, and it is extremely difficult to improve, and he is called a grandmaster-level figure, who can sense the vitality of heaven and earth, and all elements are used, and there are only a handful of martial arts in the rivers and lakes. The grandmaster is called the Arhat rank in the rumors, and the abbot can form three thousand worlds by himself, and the magic of using it is in one mind. Further up is just the legendary sword fairy, traveling in the twilight of the North Sea, the green snake in the sleeve is bold, and this kind of realm can only exist in ancient legends.

Qin Haotian thought that he was at least a little grandmaster realm, but after exhausting his true qi internal strength, the bow did not move at all, and the true qi on his body was like a mud cow entering the sea, leaking without a trace.

Li Chengtang looked at Qin Haotian in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "This is the 'Sun Shooting Bow', which has been banned by the predecessors, just to find someone who is destined, not something that ordinary people can open." ”

Hearing this, Qin Haotian was even more shocked, and ancient books recorded, "Emperor Jun gave Yi Tong a bow to help the country, and Yao Nai made Yi kill nine babies in the sky." The meaning is that the Emperor of Heaven gave Hou Yi a bow, and Hou Yi was Di Yao's general, and Di Yao let Hou Yi shoot off the nine suns in the sky.

This bow is a godsend!

"Sun-shooting bow", one of the artifacts of the flood wilderness. These artifacts are just legends, but are they really alive? Qin Haotian's heart shook strongly, but his face was already pale. The rest of the crowd was shocked. This kind of immortal weapon is carried on this young man's body at will, who is this young man?

Everyone paid attention to the surprise of the young man's family background for no reason, and suddenly felt that Li Chengtang was very mysterious, and at the same time, they were full of great expectations for the sword he was carrying. The two girls also showed a mysterious and yearning look.

Li Chengtang saw everyone's expressions, guessed what they were thinking, in order to dispel everyone's different thoughts, and it was inconvenient to reveal his family history, he said casually: "The ancestors of my family also obtained this bow by chance, this bow is extracted from the sky and refined with thunder and fire, and it is not a fairy soldier treasure, but the power is too great, someone has set a ban, and it is useless to get it if you are not destined to get it, and this time I came out to find the owner of this bow." ”

Everyone is an old man, how can they believe his words, and they take turns to try the bow, all of them look frustrated, although they are unwilling, they are helpless. Ayiyi even "pouted" her little mouth with a look of grievance, muttering why she had no chance.

At this time, Ran Jingjing looked at Wang Qiushui, and said in a slightly shy and coquettish voice: "Childe is looking for someone destined for the bow, is it the same for Childe's sword?" ”
