Chapter Forty-Eight: Martial Arts Examination

After distributing the three sets of armor, Tong Yuan was not in a hurry to show off, but looked at the three apprentices who had grown up with a satisfied face, and wore the armor clumsily.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the three of them finally appeared neatly in the grass house with the help of their wife Yan.

Facing the changed apprentices, Tong Yuan stood up and punched the strong chests of the three of them before saying: "Yes, there are indeed some little generals, but how can there be armor without a blade, go!" Inside the box is a soldier for you. ”

Hearing the master's words, the three brothers' eyes widened again, and they couldn't help but hurry up to a few long boxes.

In a box engraved with his name, Jiang Qi got a cross plum blossom gun. The gun is eight feet eight inches long, the head of the gun is more than one foot long of the sword body, the connection between the gun body and the head of the gun is the snake spit core, and there is a hook three inches long on the left and right above the connection mouth to form a cross. The whole gun weighs more than 60 catties, which is suitable for Jiang Qi's wide opening and closing martial arts and the huge power of his arms.

At the same time, Zhao Yun, who opened the box, got a silver spear, the name of the gun - gentian. The gentian gun is about eight feet five long, the body of the gun is engraved with dragon patterns, the head of the gun is one foot long and diamond-shaped, the head of the gun is narrow before and after and wide in the middle, and has two blood grooves, which has great lethality. The gun weighs more than 40 pounds, which is not light or heavy, which is suitable for his tricky spear piercing skills.

As for the spear that Tong Fei got, it was different from the two senior brothers, Jiang Qi and Zhao Yun. He got a long wooden spear with a wooden body, and the name of the gun was Blaze. The gun is more than nine feet long, the body of the gun is deep wood, the body of the gun is lightweight, and the flexibility is strong. The head of the gun is more than a foot long, it is a single arrow-shaped, the red gun is like a flame after dancing, so it is named, the gun weighs more than 30 pounds, a bit of a horse lance, and the light gun body is suitable for Tong Fei to exert the power of the bird and the phoenix gun.

I have to say that among the three brothers, the spear skills Tong Fei is really a tiger father without a dog, his spear skills have almost been passed on, and his one move and one style are almost the same as his father, naturally don't look at his youngest but the most powerful in marksmanship.

As they opened the box, Zhao Yun and Tong Fei also divided a pair of male and female bows. Shooting the sun and chasing the moon are all three-stone bows and arrows, seeing this, Jiang Qi just pouted, and he didn't want to fight, after all, giving him a three-stone bow and arrow would only be a waste.

Seeing that the eldest apprentice was in a somewhat depressed mood, Tong Yuan smiled faintly and walked into his bedroom. Quickly took out a dusty wooden box, gently blew off the dust, Tong Yuan took out a delicate composite bow more than six feet long and the bow arm as thick as a child's arm and threw it to Jiang Qi.

"This bow is called the overlord, according to legend, it was used by Xiang Yu, and it has not been opened after the teacher got it, you take it to see if you can pull it away, if you can, you will be its owner."

"Shall I try it then?" Looking at the quaint bow body, Jiang Qi was eager to try, and immediately picked up the bow that was a little pressing.

Feeling that it was at least seventy or eighty pounds, Jiang Qi couldn't help but be interested. As he spoke, he grabbed the bow with his left hand, pulled the string lightly with his right hand, and with a strong 'poof' of his arm, the bowstring just bent slightly and then bounced back again, not giving him face at all.

"Hey、、、、 can't cure you yet." Seeing that there was a bow that couldn't be pulled away for the first time, Jiang Qi was immediately excited, smiled and scolded, then rolled up his sleeves and prepared to do real kung fu, saying that Jiang Qi's left foot was in front, and his right foot was in the back of the luck dantian, and his center of gravity fell slightly and shouted 'open'.

In an instant, Jiang Qi's arms, which originally looked like they were only strong, became concave and convex because of the exerted muscles, and the armor was full at once, and even green tendons appeared on his neck.

At this moment, after finally being silent for hundreds of years, the overlord bow couldn't stand Jiang Qi's thousand catties, and the bow arm made a trembling 'squeak' sound, and soon the bowstring slowly turned into a full moon.

"Okay," Tong Yuan, who was very aware of its hardness, couldn't help but exclaim, "Haha, this bow has finally found its owner!" ”

Finally pulled the bow into a full moon, Jiang Qi was satisfied to let go of the bowstring, but he didn't expect to let go of the bow at the same time as he only heard the sound of "touch", and the huge echo of the quickly restored bowstring shook the room and people's ears hurt. The dozen or so steps of the wooden wall pointed by the bow and arrow were even more injured by the arrow qi that was shot, and a crack appeared.

"Good thing, the master has nine stones with a bow!" Seeing this scene, Jiang Qi touched the simple carving on the bow arm with affection.

"Nine stones, isn't it?" Without waiting for Tong Yuan to reply, the bow in Jiang Qi's hand was snatched away by the anxious Tong Fei, and he also wanted to try to see if there was a bow with such heavy pulling force.

"Drink, drink, drink" As a result, Tong Fei was deflated, only to see that he had been "drinking" for a long time, and he was exhausted, so he only bent the bowstring a little, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.

Seeing that his junior brother was deflated, Zhao Yun couldn't help but want to try it, but it turned out that his strength was almost the same for a long time, his arm was numb, and he didn't pull it into a full moon, and in the end, he only had envy.

"Hehe, the two junior brothers are not doing their hard work." The triumphant Jiang Qi took the bow and arrow in Zhao Yun's hand with a smile, raised his hand and pulled it hard, and the powerful bowstring in Zhao Yun's hand was easily pulled away continuously, making two crisp sounds of 'bump' and "bump".

After being happy, Jiang Qi couldn't help but say: "After looking for a long time, Qi can finally have a bow to use, but this bow is worthy of nine stones, and Qi is afraid that it will be scrapped if you open the bow fifty times in a row." ”

"Fifty is already unique, I'm afraid that there is no one in the world who can use this bow?" Tong Yuan looked at a few proud disciples with a proud face, and smiled comfortingly: "Okay, let's go and get familiar with your blades!" Remember that after half a month, you will be able to test your martial arts, and whether you can go down the mountain in advance depends on whether your martial arts are good or not. ”

After choosing the weapons, the three people also listened to what the master said, and ran out of the grass house excitedly. At the moment, the sky was not too dark, and the battlefield was set up outside the door by the faint light of the oil lamp. The three brothers come and go, and for a while the sound of weapons is endless, and tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

The short half month passed quickly, and in this half month, the martial arts of the three brothers improved again under the guidance of their master Tong Yuan. Early in the morning, in the rising morning light, the three of them began their final test.

The first test is naturally the three brothers' own martial arts, the degree of learning of 'Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear'. The method of testing the effect is very simple, the three brothers practiced, the master Tong Yuan observed on the side, and with an order, the three brothers who were fully armed jumped into the battle formation one after another.

Although the three brothers have a set of marksmanship, the results of their practice are different. Among the three brothers, the true inheritance is naturally Huzi Tong Fei, who has a degree of advance and retreat in one move, which is quite popular with everyone. Marksmanship is slightly inferior to Zhao Yun, his marksmanship can be said to be a collection of the essence of the bird and phoenix gun, especially the most quintessential of the piercing and stabbing technique in the marksmanship, the marksmanship is like a snake spitting letters, the dragon soaring, and the power is endless.

As for Jiang Qi, he is of course the most unprofessional guy and has the worst marksmanship. However, it relies on infinite strength, and the martial arts are the best among the three brothers, and a spear is open and closed like a tiger descending the mountain, and Mount Tai is unstoppable.

Although this time, the three brothers tested martial arts and practiced martial arts, and the three of them attacked each other. However, the situation in the field after thirty moves has changed, and the three brothers who originally attacked each other have become one against two, and Jiang Qi monopolizes Zhao Yun and Tong Fei.

Of course, this is also the usual practice method of the three of them, but despite being attacked by the two junior brothers, Jiang Qi, who can't be splashed with water with a spear dance, still advances and retreats in a certain way, and greets him unhurriedly, and the sound of the three of them shouting from time to time comes from the sound of weapons ringing.

Looking at the three apprentices who were skilled in marksmanship in the field, Tong Yuan also nodded with satisfaction. Although he knew that there was still a lot of room for improvement for several apprentices, Tong Yuan also knew that it was not something that could be taught at the moment, and whether they could achieve success depended on how they understood it in life.

Compared with Zhao Yun and Tong Fei's spear skills, Tong Yuan only thought a little after seeing his eldest apprentice Jiang Qi, thinking that maybe Jiang Qi was not suitable for using guns, if he changed to heavy weapons such as halberds and sticks, he should be able to give full play to his own advantages.

Soon, as the three of them made more than 100 moves, Tong Yuan stopped them from continuing to compete. There is no point in comparing this kind of sparring, and in the end, I am afraid that it depends on whose strength can support it to the end, and then it will no longer be a competition between martial arts.

After testing the martial arts, Tong Yuan began to check the apprentice's riding and archery skills. For Tong Yuan in his life, in addition to his favorite spearmanship, the rest is archery, and the biggest killing move is naturally the continuous bead archery, when he is at his peak, he can use three stones to ride a bow and release twelve arrows in a row, and the arrows are enough to make the enemy avoid them.

However, for the kung fu of archery, the only trick is hard practice, as for how a few apprentices can be, Tong Yuan also knows that it is only up to them.

With the beginning of the inspection, the three brothers wore helmets and armor, and each rode a war horse to the horse farm majestically. The first to strike was Tong Fei, who had the worst archery skills, he was dressed in black armor and a red robe, and as soon as he came out of the battle, he looked at his father who was riding a war horse in the distance and carrying a spear.

Although there is no regulation on the shooting distance for this test horse shooting, the distance of the bow is strictly required, and it is only ten paces away. If you ride on a high-speed horse, you can run between two suctions at most, so the test requires high riding skills and archery speed.

Therefore, for Tong Fei, who is not good at riding and shooting, he finally gritted his teeth and chose to be a hundred steps away, and the three stones in Tong Fei's hand were quickly pulled by the moon chasing bow during the run, and the three arrow feathers of the '、、、whoosh' were nailed to the arrow target a hundred steps away, and the third arrow had already stepped out of the specified distance after the war horse.

Seeing this situation, Tong Fei could only look at his stern father timidly, and when he saw his father's expressionless appearance, Tong Fei became even more worried.

"Senior brother saw you?" Tong Fei said to Zhao Yun who was about to step forward in front of the two senior brothers who were beating Ma Lai with a dirty face.

"Senior brother doesn't have to be like this, it will be better to practice more in the future." Zhao Yun slightly encouraged the depressed junior before rushing out.

Compared with Tong Fei's loss, Zhao Yunjin, who had just received a new bow, felt in good condition. Taking a deep breath, Zhao Yun sped up his horse speed and rushed to a hundred steps, his silver shining armor looked even more dazzling in the sunlight, and everyone he saw sighed What a handsome little general.

Naturally, Zhao Yun's skills are also matched with his outfit of burning bags, 'swish、、、、', the five white feather arrows quickly formed a circle and were nailed to the arrow target a hundred steps away, and Zhao Yun also went out of the shooting area after the five arrows were shot, although he was still unsatisfied, but Zhao Yun himself was very satisfied with such a good result. Today can be regarded as overplaying, and looking at the master's satisfied jaw, Zhao Yun walked back with a relaxed face.

"Senior brother, it's your turn、、、、" Back in the formation, Zhao Yun smiled and clenched his fists and said to Jiang Qi.

"Not bad, Zilong, it seems that he has a strong rival for his brother!" Jiang Qi smiled calmly, then took out the overlord bow hanging on the horse's neck, knocked the horse's belly, and flew out with a roar of snow.

As the mount flew out, Jiang Qi also put away his smile, first pulled out two heavy arrows and bit them in his mouth, and then continued to urge the horse to accelerate. Soon the speeding snow came to a position one hundred and fifty paces away from the wooden target.

Seeing that Jiang Qi no longer stayed at this distance, he leaned into the quiver in front of him with one hand and quickly bent the bow 'pop 、、、' five crisp bowstring sounds, and the five white feather arrows flew like beads in an arc towards the red heart of the wooden target.

The five white feather arrows hit the same spot one after another, and when they hit the same spot, they also broke the previous feather. In the end, only one white-feathered arrow remained on the target.

This is not the end, just when the last arrow feather hit the red heart, two heavy arrows with cold light followed, and with a loud 'snap', the heavy arrow target was smashed into several pieces by the heavy arrows and scattered all over the ground.

It turned out that just as Jiang Qi's war horse was about to step out of the prescribed shooting ground, he shot a heavy arrow in his mouth with two arrows in one hand. Under the power of the nine-stone strong bow, the heavy arrow flew towards the arrow target with the power of a thousand catties, as for the fate of the arrow target, it can be imagined.
