Although Zheng Yi and others had heard of Wang Xue's reputation on weekdays, they only knew that Wang Xue was skilled in boxing and grappling, but they never thought that Wang Xue's archery skills were also very good, and the four elders saw that Wang Xue was a thin woman, and only she and Liu Ang were challenged in the house.

The disciples under the house threw more than a dozen quivers one after another, some of which were picked up by Liu Ang and thrown back under the house, and some were shot away by Wang Xue's arrows. At this moment several more quivers flew up from under the house, and the elder of the west head shouted to the elders of the north and east heads, "Let's go separately and get the arrows!" The three elders picked up the quivers in three directions. Liu Ang ran in front of the Elder of the North Chief, and kicked down the two quivers that had fallen in front of the Elder of the North. Wang Xue released an arrow, knocking down several arrows that had fallen in front of the East Elder's eyes, and then released another arrow and shot it towards the West Elder. The West Chief Elder only cared about grabbing the quiver, but he didn't notice Wang Xue release the arrow, and was hit by Wang Xue's arrow on the top of the head. Elder Xitou's face changed color, and he muttered, "I lost." Wang Xue bowed and said, "The younger generation is rude. Elder Xishouna waved his hand and jumped out of the house.

Liu Ang kicked down the quiver in front of Elder Bei's eyes, and hurriedly ran towards Zheng Yi, but it was a moment too late. The head of the four elders of Zheng Yishi, the light archery skill is the highest, grabbed a quiver in front of Liu Ang, and pulled out two feather arrows to shoot at Liu Ang. Liu Ang was shocked, hurriedly dodged and avoided, and shouted: "Senior Wang Xue, be careful!" Wang Xue turned around suddenly, the wooden bow in her right hand was aimed at Zheng Yi, and her left hand reached behind her back to touch the feather arrow, but she didn't know that this touch was empty, it turned out that the arrow she shot at the head of the west was the last one, and she was really shocked, and she hurriedly looked around, wanting to pick up a quiver for emergency, but she didn't know that the quiver was kicked clean by Liu Ang, and there were only tiles around the roof, and there was no quiver. Zheng Yi laughed and said, "Little woman, this is called self-inflicted evil fruit, and today I will also let you taste the taste of only having a bow but no arrows." He knew that Wang Xue had done a good job, and the feather arrows could not hit her easily, so he grabbed three feather arrows from the quiver at once, put them on the bow, and shot them at Wang Xue. Wang Xue had nowhere to hide, and he didn't have time to think about it at the moment, so he hurriedly removed the quiver behind his back and blocked the quiver in front of him at will, hoping that he would hit the big luck, and the small quiver could just block the incoming arrows. Coincidentally, one of the three arrows shot by Zheng Yi was blocked by Wang Xue's quiver, and the remaining two were shot right in Wang Xue's quiver. Wang Xueping had two more arrows for no reason, and his heart was very happy, and he immediately put the two arrows on the bow and shot them at the elder in the north. The elder of the north head was completely defenseless when he saw that Wang Xue had no feather arrows, where could he have thought that Zheng Yi gave her two for nothing, and when he saw Wang Xue shoot arrows with a bow, he wanted to dodge but it was too late, and he was hit by an arrow in the chest. Wang Xue said apologetically: "Offended!" Elder Bei shook his head and sighed lightly, and jumped off the roof.

The audience around the house saw that the four elders had gone to the second, and they expected that Wang Xue and Liu Ang would most likely win this battle, and they all praised it, only Ah Da sat in the distance and sighed, and scolded Wang Xue's whole family in his heart, just ask God to bless him, don't let Wang Xue win, otherwise he has been practicing hard for many years and finally getting the position of the head of the house to fly away.

Zheng Yi took out the feather arrow from the quiver, circled behind Wang Xue, and aimed the feather arrow at Wang Xue's vest. Liu Ang flashed to Zheng Yi's side not far away, and shouted to Zheng Yi: "Master, the disciple is here, you send arrows to hit me!" Zheng Yi knew that Liu Ang intended to disturb his mind and worry about Wang Xue, so he ignored him at the moment, and as soon as his hand was released, the bowstring collapsed, and the feather arrow on the bow flew towards Wang Xue. Seeing that this arrow was about to hit Wang Xue, he saw Wang Xue suddenly jump up, turn his head in mid-air, hook his left arm, and use the key to grasping in the Haba technique, and grasp the feather arrow in his hand. Zheng Yi didn't expect Wang Xue to catch his arrows, and saw that Wang Xue's method of catching the arrows made it clean and neat, and the volley somersault also made him extremely handsome, and his heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but praise loudly: "Good kung fu!" When the onlookers under the house saw Wang Xue's kung fu, they originally wanted to applaud, but it was inconvenient for anyone to speak regardless of Zheng Yi's face, and at this time, Zheng Yi took the lead, and everyone applauded together.

Wang Xue jumped and turned over to dodge and take the arrow in one go, the figure seems to be chic and handsome, but in fact it is also a helpless move to be forced to a hurry, Wang Xue only hoped to avoid Zheng Yi's arrows when she jumped, with Zheng Yi's archery skills, Wang Xue didn't expect to catch the arrow, and then grabbed the arrow in her hand, she herself didn't come back to her senses, she was stunned for a while, and then hurriedly put the feather arrow on the bow and aimed it at the East Head Elder. When the elder of the east saw Wang Xue put on the bow with an arrow, he hurriedly bent his legs and bent over, only waiting for Wang Xue to dodge on both sides when he sent the arrow. Wang Xue saw that the elder of the east was already prepared, and knew that if this arrow was only shot like this, he would miss it, so he had a plan, put the arrow back into the quiver, jumped up, raised the wooden bow and slashed at the forehead of the elder of the east head. The crowd exclaimed in unison. The elder of the east head was really shocked and at a loss for what to do, and shouted: "The Golden Arrow Sect has always only tested archery skills, and never fights in close combat, do you understand the rules?" I didn't want Wang Xue to raise his bow and split it just to make a false move, and the wooden bow was split halfway, and when he saw the elder of the east head avoiding to the right, he immediately drew out his feather arrow and shot it to the right. Wang Xue shot an arrow in his busy schedule, the force is not very big, this arrow is not very fast, with the martial arts cultivation of the elder of the east head, it was not difficult to dodge, but he saw Wang Xue slash with a wooden bow, only that Wang Xue did not understand the rules to fight in close quarters, and when he saw Wang Xue shoot arrows with a bow, it was too late to dodge, and his chest was hit by a feather arrow. Only then did the onlookers under the house understand Wang Xue's plan, and they all laughed. Elder Dong's face turned red, and he said gloomily: "Good strategy, good kung fu." Wang Xue didn't want to offend people, seeing that the elder was angry, she grinned, and said with a smile: "The younger generation is talented and incompetent, if you don't use a little trick, I'm afraid you won't be able to beat the senior master." After this hard fight, the elder of Dongshou knew that Wang Xue was not under him whether it was martial arts or archery, even if it was a bright competition, he might not be able to win, seeing Wang Xue's humble and polite words, his mood was peaceful, and he said: "The good girl is really amazing, and the little old man is convinced." "Let's wave my hands and go down to the house.

Wang Xue beat another person, her heart was overjoyed, and she was smug, when she suddenly heard a majestic voice behind her say: "Little girl, you have lost, don't believe it and look back." Wang Xue was startled, and hurriedly turned around, only to see Zheng Yi standing not far in front of him, opening his iron bow and aiming it at his chest, with three feather arrows buckled on the bow. Zheng Yi smiled: "Your strategy to break the formation is quite interesting, if you want to take away all our arrows, we can't release the arrows, so we can't win." Then his face showed a serious face, and he said: "It's just that your strategy is a child's trick, not real kung fu, even if you win in the end, I'm afraid it won't convince people." Wang Xue was less than a few feet away from Zheng Yi at this time, and she couldn't turn over and avoid it like before, if she took off the quiver and blocked it in front of her, she wouldn't have such good luck to let Zheng Yi shoot the arrow in the quiver again, and said at the moment: "Zheng senior's words are bad, martial arts competitions, many times the rules are rules, and the rules of your faction are only allowed to win with arrows, so why can't I find a way to break your feather arrows in order to win?" On the rivers and lakes, some people win with martial arts, and some people win with stratagems, what kind of martial arts schemes, who will laugh in the end and who is the winner. Zheng Yi said: "That's right, dare to ask Wang Xue Woman, who is the winner in today's competition?"

Wang Xue saw that the three feather arrows in front of Zheng Yi's bow were facing his chest, even if he suddenly jumped to the side and dodged the three feather arrows, but Zheng Yi still had dozens of feather arrows in his quiver, and he couldn't dodge them all, and he didn't have a single arrow in his quiver, so he couldn't win no matter what. Wang Xue was arrogant by nature and unwilling to admit that he was invincible, listening to Zheng Yi's question, he didn't know how to answer, he was hesitating, and at a glance he saw Liu Ang behind Zheng Yi, and quietly stretched out his hand and pointed to the left a few times. Liu Ang's gestures were very subtle, his left hand hung down at will, and he only stretched out his index finger and pointed lightly, not to say that Zheng Yi couldn't see his gesture with his back to Liu Ang, even the hundreds of onlookers under the house were all looking at Wang Xue, and no one paid attention to other places. Wang Xue squinted and looked in the direction of Liu Ang's finger, and saw that a tile in the corner of the house was broken, revealing a little tile crack, and a feather arrow was stuck in the tile crack, and it did not roll down the roof slope to the bottom of the house. Wang Xue thought that although only one feather arrow could not compete with Zheng Yi's whole feather arrow, it was better than nothing, and shouted: "It is not certain who will kill the deer!" Zheng Yi hurriedly released the arrow, but failed to shoot Wang Xue, and hurriedly took out three more feather arrows from the quiver and aimed at Wang Xue. Wang had taken the opportunity to pull out the feather arrow in the crack in the tile, put it on the wooden bow, and turned back to Zheng Yi. Zheng Yi sneered: "The mantis arm is used as a car, do you think this little trick will work? You only have one arrow, but I have a whole tube." Wang Xue had another plan, and said with a smile: "Of course it works!" suddenly put an arrow on the bow and jumped behind Zheng Yi. Zheng Yi was afraid that Wang Xue would shoot an arrow at his own skill, and no matter how many arrows he had in his quiver, he would be defeated, and his body was shaking, and the two-handed bow and arrow moved away with Wang Xue's body, only to shoot her after Wang Xue landed. When Wang Xue jumped in mid-air, she suddenly shot an arrow at Zheng Yi. Zheng Yi's bow and arrow skills are good, and he can see at a glance that Wang Xue's arrow is out of direction, at most it can only shoot at the corner of his clothes, but he can't shoot his own flesh and skin. It turned out that Wang Xue's arrow was not deliberately missed, but to let the feather arrow fly past Zheng Yi's iron bow, and cut the iron bowstring in Zheng Yi's hand, so Zheng Yi had a tube of feather arrows, but there was no arrow weapon, although he was not defeated, but he could not win. Wang Xue was holding a wooden bow in his hand, but he didn't have a feather arrow, and he couldn't win, Wang Xue smiled: "Senior Zheng Yi, you and I can't win right now, I don't know how to care about this battle?"

Zheng Yi saw Wang Xue's martial arts, and he originally had the heart of tolerance, but he couldn't win at this time, so he felt even more recognized in his heart, called Liu Ang in front of him, and asked: "If I hand over the position of the head of the Golden Arrow Sect to you, can you take care of the Golden Arrow Sect?" Liu Ang heard Zheng Yi's tone and already agreed, his heart thumped, and he said on the ground: "The disciple swears that he will live up to the master's orders." Zheng Yi nodded, and said loudly to the people under the house: "In today's martial arts competition, Liu Ang is recognized as the thirty-seventh generation heir of the Golden Arrow Sect. Everyone in the room had already vaguely guessed that this would be the case, and no one was surprised. Zheng Yi, Wang Xue, and Liu Ang jumped out of the house. An elder walked out of the house with a big golden bow in both hands and handed it to Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi took the golden bow and handed it to Liu Ang, who knelt down to take it.

Zhao Xiaocao. Hu Xiaochen and Chang Long walked to Wang Xue's side, and Chang Long said happily: "I didn't expect that Master, you are not only strong in martial arts, but also so good at archery, even the Golden Arrow Sect is also compared." Wang Xue was afraid that these words would be heard by the disciples of the Golden Arrow Sect on the side, and then he was talked about, so he hurriedly shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, children, where can I compare to others." But he thought in his heart: "Although Zheng Yi and the three elders' archery skills are good, they are still far worse than the gang leader of the Liangshan Gang in the past, Bo Shanyuan, I am not even afraid of Bo Shanyuan, what are I afraid of the Golden Arrow Sect?"

The matter of promoting the head of the house has been over, the Golden Arrow faction held a banquet and invited guests from all over the world, Wang Xuezi was also invited, but Wang Xue did not like to socialize, and told Zheng Yi that he was in a hurry to attend the Zhenwu Conference, and returned to the inn to pack his luggage and set off on the same day.

The Golden Arrow Sect's feast was celebrated from noon until sunset. After Liu Ang was decent, he was familiar with the disciple rules since he was a child, and understood the principle of "young people, don't drink, drink drunk, the ugliest", and only drank one or two cups when entertaining guests at the banquet, and he was not drunk at all. After the guests and disciples all dispersed, Liu Ang waited for Zheng Yi to go back to his room to sleep, and it was already unitary time, and the full moon was in the sky.

Liu Ang returned to the room, put the quiver on his back, picked up the iron bow, and came to the backyard of the martial arts hall alone. Liu Ang cut down three short branches with the thickness of his arms in the woods in the backyard, and then came to the empty archery training ground, raised his arm, threw the short branches into the air, and then removed the wooden bow, dragged it steadily with his left hand, without the slightest shaking, and grabbed three feather arrows from the quiver with his right hand, and put them on the bow together, seeing that one of the three short branches was directly above his head, and the remaining two were on the left and one on the right. I saw three feather arrows shot in three different directions, and each shot three short branches, which was the mastery of Liu Ang's father, Liu Changfeng, and had three short-lived arrows. Liu Ang put away his bow and arrows, looked at the bright moon in the sky, remembered his senior sister's kind smile and his father's strictness, smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "I must practice arrows well and become a generation of heroes." ”

Wang Xue took Zhao Xiaocao and the other three disciples to drive and came to Bozi Town in a day. Wang Xue stood at the gate of Bozi Town, looking at the gate in a daze, she had left Bozi Town for more than 20 years, and then returned to her hometown, thinking only in her heart: "Li Hao is also coming to participate in the Zhenwu Conference, and Li Hao is also coming to the Zhenwu Conference." The four of them walked into the town and stayed at a large inn in the town. At that time, Wang Xue, Li Hao, Bu Ziyi, Wu Tian, and Zhang Guanhua were here to negotiate with the wandering witch doctor Liu Junma, and thus met Lin Tikun.

In the afternoon, Wang Xue had nothing to do, so she took Zhao Xiaocao and other disciples to the street. Wang Xue came to the door of Lihutang that year, Lihutang had long ceased to exist at this time, and had become a pharmacy, Wang Xue asked the pharmacy shopkeeper about Wang Lijie, Wang Taijiao, and brothers from Linsen Jungle, and the pharmacy shopkeeper only waved his hand and said that he didn't know. Wang Xue walked out of the pharmacy and told Zhao Xiaocao and others about the past of Lihutang, and finally said to Chang Long: "You have read a lot, is there any poem that can express my state of mind at this time." Chang Long said: "Thousands of sails pass by the side of the sinking boat, and there are thousands of trees in front of the sick tree." Wang Xue asked: "How do you say it?" Chang Long said: "The most famous masters on the rivers and lakes back then were the four true heroes, and later the four true heroes grew old, and the martial arts masters on the rivers and lakes were Master Liu Yue, Xiao Yuansheng, and Bo Shanyuan, and today Liu Yue and Xiao Yuansheng are also gradually aging, Master, you are already a contemporary martial arts master, isn't this a thousand sails on the side of the sinking boat, and Wan Muchun in front of the sick tree?" Zhao Xiaocao said angrily: "Master Liu Yue single-handedly defeated Jin Yunqi, Yu Duoli, Huang Qiangfeng and the others, how can you say that he is a sick tree in the sinking boat? I think you are a sick tree. Chang Long knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Xiaocao would definitely refute it, and he was already used to it in his heart, so he only smiled slightly, but did not answer her. Wang Xue sighed: "The words are not coarse, the old things always have to be replaced by new things, just like the head of the Golden Arrow Sect used to be Zheng Yi, and now it is Liu Ang." I may barely be able to be called a master in the martial arts today, but in another ten or twenty years, this position will fall on you juniors, and your martial arts in the future will always surpass me one day. Zhao Xiaocao, Hu Xiaochen, and Chang Long knew that their martial arts were far from Wang Xue's, and they never dared to think that one day their martial arts would surpass Wang Xue.

At noon, the four of them were hungry, and Zhao Xiaocao said, "Master, let's go back to the inn to eat." Wang Xue said: "Why do you want to go back to the inn to eat, I know a good place, I ate noodles at her house twenty years ago, but I don't know if her stall is still there." Chang Long heard Wang Xue say that it was a stall instead of a restaurant hotel, and he felt slightly unhappy in his heart, he was used to being a young master, and he was still dirty when he stayed in a first-class guest room on weekdays, and he had never sat in a booth with a tent, but he thought that he would be a hero in the future, and he would have to put down the glory and wealth of the society today, so he was also relieved.

The noodle stall Wang Xue said was a small noodle restaurant built by Ma Yanmei's friend Bao Fangnan in Bozi Town in the past. Wang Xue didn't know if the noodle shop was still there after more than 20 years, and even if it was still there, he might not be able to recognize Bao Fangnan, and even if he did, Bao Fangnan would never recognize himself, but after all, he still took his disciples to the noodle shop. Turning the corner, the noodle shop is still there, Wang Xue saw Bao Fangnan rolling noodles on the stall at a glance, Wang Xue only came to the noodle shop once 20 years ago, and only saw Bao Fangnan side, what Bao Fangnan looked like Wang Xue herself can't remember clearly, but in her heart she thinks that the woman who rolled noodles on the noodle stall is Bao Fangnan. Wang Xue stepped forward with three disciples, and when Bao Fangnan saw the guests, he hurriedly put down the rolling pin in his hand and beckoned Wang Xue and the others to sit down. Wang Xue sat down at a table and smiled bitterly in her heart: "You don't recognize me, it's no wonder." I was stunned, and suddenly heard Bao Fangnan's voice, and exclaimed: "Wang Xue, you are Wang Xue!" Bao Fangnan said and reached out to hold Wang Xue's face, and the flour on her hand rubbed Wang Xue's face. Wang Xue didn't expect Bao Fangnan to recognize herself, she was surprised and happy, and got up and shouted: "Sister Bao, I'm Wang Xue, you still remember me." Bao Fangnan said happily: "I have no other benefits as a person, that is, I have a good memory, and my little sister who met twenty years ago will not forget it twenty years later." Your Senior Sister Ma is in the back room, I'll call her. There was a row of low houses behind the noodle stall, and Bao Fangnan turned his head to the house and shouted: "Ma Yanmei, Ma Yanmei, come out to pick up customers!" Zhao Xiaocao, Hu Xiaochen, and Chang Long all felt funny when they heard this, what kind of words is this, and she is not a woman in a green building, how can she be called out to pick up customers? I saw a wooden door creak open, and a middle-aged woman walked out slowly, it was Ma Yanmei.
