Chapter 257: The Magic Horse
[Today is August 16, this book will be written for a while, and it will be finished, and it will be written to the finale of the crown prince Zhao Hanjun in the world, tomorrow is the National Day, I wish you all a happy National Day! ] I wrote 15,000 words today, and my hands hurt so much! 】
The smell of gunpowder on the field became stronger and stronger, and King Zhao said, "Okay, now our referee Lord Lu will preside over this game."
After speaking, King Zhao subconsciously hid behind the scenes.
King Zhao knew that having him would make Zhao Han worry about some things, so he hurriedly retreated behind the scenes, so that Zhao Han would let go of his fists and feet to compete with the three princes.
Lord Lu stood on the stage.
A few years ago, it was also this Lord Lu who presided over the competition, and everything was like a dream, which made Zhao Han feel like he had returned to the previous failed race, and he still clearly remembered that the horse a few years ago became weaker and weaker in the process of the race, and even fell down in the end, so that he also ate a.
A wild burst of laughter ensued.
The laughter, as in my ears, still lingers!
And this Lord Lu, instead of helping Zhao Han up, he also followed others to ridicule Zhao Han for being a waste.
This made Zhao Han's heart hate everyone at that moment, and he also remembered Lord Lu's extremely ugly face.
"Could it be that Lord Lu is Zhao Heng's person? Otherwise, how could the horse I got before be a waste horse? It must be the case, today, he is presiding over this competition again, so there is no so-called fairness at all, hum! It's really disgusting, but I don't know, the horse I rode today will be another pegasus? “
Thinking of this, Zhao Han glanced at Lord Lu coldly, which made Lord Lu's body tremble!
"Prince, are you ready?" Lord Lu said with some horror, thinking to himself, Zhao Han couldn't have found something, right?
What if Zhao Han asked him to change horses?
Lord Lu has no doctrine at all.
However, to Lord Lu's surprise, Zhao Han actually agreed directly and said, "Lord Lu, I'm ready, I can get on the horse now, and then start the race." ”
At this time, Lord Lu gasped heavily, glad that Zhao Han didn't find out that the horse assigned to him for the race was a waste horse, he hammered his chest several times, and breathed a sigh of relief before saying: "Okay, very good, since you are ready, let's start getting on the horse to start today's race!" ”
The three princes are already winning.
He had already concluded in his heart that Zhao Han and Zhao Han would lose this time, and he was already fantasizing about Zhao Han kneeling in front of him, as pitiful as a dog, kneeling three times and knocking nine times!
Zhao Han, on the other hand, was unusually calm.
"Okay, now I announce that the competition between the third prince Zhao Heng and the crown prince Zhao Han, horse racing and archery, has officially begun, and the one who shoots more targets wins."
Immediately, Zhao Han and Zhao Heng got on the horse at the same time.
As soon as he got on the horse, Zhao Han felt that something was wrong with his horse.
"This Lord Lu, who is really the person of the third prince, actually gave me a waste horse, wanting to make me make a fool of myself again in the process of the game, in order to win this game, you are really calculating!" Zhao Han said secretly in his heart.
But at this point, the race has already begun!
Zhao Han deliberately slowed down the horse's speed, did not use the horsewhip to drive it away, and was carefully observing which part of the horse's body was wrong, so that he could have a strategy to deal with it in the future.
Soon!
The horse of the third prince flew out like a bolt of lightning, and the arrow in his hand also landed on the target, and this arrow hit the bull's-eye.
"Wow! Right in the bull's-eye, ten rings, ten rings! ”
The audience was completely blown away by his performance!
Only fierce cheers and exclamations remained.
Everyone was cheering for the three princes' superb archery skills.
"This is not only the victory of the three princes, but also the pride of our Zhao Kingdom!"
An elderly spectator stood up excitedly, the fan in his hand shaking with excitement.
His words immediately resonated with those around him, each with a smile on their faces and a glint of pride in their eyes.
"Look at that arrow, it hit the bull's-eye, and it didn't deviate at all, it's amazing!"
A young man pointed at the target, his eyes full of admiration for the prince.
His companion immediately responded: "This is the great thing about our third prince, his wisdom and courage make us all deeply awe-inspired. ”
And in the corner of the shooting range, the third prince stood there quietly, with a triumphant smile on his face, as if everything was expected by him.
A proud face!
The cheers of the audience became louder and louder, and their admiration for the three princes could no longer be expressed in words.
In the cheers, the third prince slowly walked to the target, he looked at the bull's-eye he shot, his heart was full of joy.
Arrogant self-confidence, this time he felt that he could definitely win.
The other side.
The arrow in Zhao Han's hand hadn't been shot out yet, and everyone couldn't wait!
"Hey, as expected, he must not have the confidence to shoot out, if you want me to say, he will definitely not be able to win, the three princes are all on the bull's eye, even if the prince can hit the bull's-eye, it will only be a draw."
"Hurry up, okay? Grinding, or just admit defeat, don't be embarrassed here! ”
Zhao Han's horse slowed down very slowly, and finally Zhao Han discovered the abnormality of the horse, this horse, the leg was injured, and the wound would rupture as long as it was tossed.
"Good guy, you really want to frame me here, but this time, I, Zhao Han, will never be fooled again! I am not what I used to be! ”
Soon!
Zhao Han came to the target, he gently raised the arrow in his hand, deliberately let the arrow miss, but at the same time, the horse also fell directly to the ground.
"It's really a waste, the third prince hit the bull's-eye, and he, as the crown prince, didn't even hit the target."
The ridicule and questioning voices of the audience echoed around Zhao Han, who stood there, facing the target, at a loss in his heart.
He has experienced such setbacks, and has been questioned and ridiculed by so many people.
He could feel their disappointed gazes, their words piercing into his heart like sharp blades.
"He's not our crown prince, he's just a loser!" Someone shouted.
Zhao Han held the bow tightly, and the hardness and coolness of the bowstring came from his fingertips, which made him sober up a little.
He looked at the target, and then at those who were laughing at him, and the anger and unwillingness in his heart burned violently like a fire that had been kindled.
"I won't give up!"
Although Zhao Han's voice was not loud, it was full of firmness and determination.
At this time, Lord Lu saw that many viewers were persuading Zhao Han to give up the game directly, so he said to Zhao Han: "Prince, do you want to give up the competition?" ”
Zhao Heng looked at Lord Lu angrily, and thought to himself: "Lord Lu is really a good dog, and now persuade me to give up the competition, isn't this equivalent to letting the third prince win directly?" Since you are a dog raised by the Third Prince, I have to let you open your dog eyes to see how the Third Prince lost later, but I don't know, I deliberately missed the target this time. ”
"If it weren't for this horse, I wouldn't have missed the shot, and although I lost this time, I still have a chance, and I want to try again." Zhao Han said,
As soon as these words came out, it caused an even more crazy ridicule from the audience.
The audience's ridicule poured in like a tide, and they shook their heads, puzzled by Zhao Han's stubbornness.
Some people even shouted: "Prince, be sober!" It's impossible for you, it's time to throw in the towel! ”
Another viewer sneered meanly: "Prince, you are nothing but a useless fool, your horse may be your only merit, but now that it is useless, what else do you have?" What else do you have to win? ”
Lord Lu couldn't help but shake his head and said to Zhao Han: "Perhaps, the audience's eyes are bright and stubborn...... Sometimes you make yourself worse later! ”
However, Zhao Han looked at Lord Lu firmly and replied, "Lord Lu, but I haven't lost yet, I still have a chance, isn't there still nine arrows?" I just shot an arrow this time. ”
The ridicule of the audience became louder, they pointed at Zhao Han, and shouted almost in unison: "Give up, Zhao Han!" You've already lost! Hahaha......"
However, Zhao Han ignored them.
He just silently stroked his horse, as if looking for confidence for the next race.
Seeing that Zhao Han didn't have the heart to give up the game, Lord Lu didn't have anything to say.
At this time, Zhao Han squatted down, gently bit his fingers, and then dripped his own blood on the horse's wound.
A sharp ache!
A hiss!
The original waste horse suddenly felt a sharp pain, as if frightened, and rushed forward.
"Zhao Han, what are you doing?"
Zhao Heng said worriedly.
Zhao Han smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, this horse is injured, I'm just going to take a look." ”
Hearing this, the third prince breathed a sigh of relief, the third prince thought that Zhao Han was going to kill the horse directly, but the frightened horse was grabbed by Zhao Han with one hand, he is now in the condensation realm, and it is too easy for him to catch a loose horse with one hand!
However, the horse was frightened and was grabbed by Zhao Han with one hand, and these things were not visible in the eyes of others.
"That's good, we have rules for the competition, and you can't change horses during the competition, of course, you can also admit defeat directly." The third prince said.
Zhao Han replied: "Of course I know this, I won't change the horse, but I still want to give it a try......"
This feeling of dying somehow made the third prince's heart feel dark.
"Okay, since you want to give it a try, I'll give you a chance, everyone is optimistic, I'm going to shoot the second arrow, this second arrow, I deliberately let him, even if I let him give him an arrow, he can't win, he can't even shoot the target, but he still has to compete with me, so when the prince loses, you can't say that I bullied him." Zhao Heng said loudly to the audience.
The audience nodded one after another, they knew Zhao Heng's strength and also understood the prince's weaknesses.
However, Zhao Han was not modest, and he had to compete with Zhao Heng, which was undoubtedly humiliating himself.
"Zhao Han, don't be too crazy, although you are the prince, you shouldn't be so unsightly. Zhao Heng gave you a chance, but you couldn't even shoot a target, it's really embarrassing! A spectator said.
"That's it, what's so great about the prince, who do you think you are, you have no real ability, and you dare to compare with Zhao Heng, it's really beyond your strength." Another audience member chimed in.
For a while, the audience belittled the crown prince Zhao Han, thinking that he was not qualified to compete with Zhao Heng.
At the same time, they also constantly praised Zhao Heng's open-mindedness and generosity, believing that he was a real hero.
And the crown prince Zhao Han was belittled to nothing in the hearts of the audience, and everyone disdained him.
Zhao Han patted his horse and said in a low voice: "Ma'er, this time you can give me a good fight, I have already fallen into the devil, I have demon blood flowing in my body, just now I dripped my blood on your wound, so you have also fallen into the devil, let me, a person who has fallen into the devil, win this game with you, a demon horse." ”
Zhao Han said, reaching out and gently stroking the horse's mane, his eyes full of trust and encouragement.
The horse seemed to feel his emotions as well, and its front hooves gently scraped the ground and neighed in response to his anticipation.
Looked at! Zhao Han smiled slightly.
