Chapter 948: Archery

The Shen Workshop is the property of the Qin family, and it is also regarded as Qin Suhui's dowry. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Most of the employees in the info workshop are related to the Qin and Mu families. Ming Qin is nominally Mu Qingjue's apprentice, and Qin Suhui is Mu Qingjue's stepmother, and the relationship between the two is suspended, so naturally they can't get too close.

Mu Qing finally found some clues, and led the soldiers of the Investigation Division to search the mountains on a large scale, but unexpectedly, the Songwen Daoist turned against him and colluded with the poisoner, not only did he not capture the poisoner and the mourning star, but lost a lot of manpower.

Mu Qing never dared to slack off, and was still trying to find the whereabouts of the poison master, so that he would not come out to harm people again.

The crimes committed by the Mourning Gate Star did not have much impact, the Heart Eroding Gu had little effect on ordinary people, and most of the objects of the Mourning Gate Star were scattered cultivators who traveled everywhere, and it was appropriate for the Immortal Dao Festival to be held in Fuxian City, and there were many and miscellaneous monks in the city, and it was difficult to arouse the vigilance of ordinary people if they were lost.

Shen Gongfang is in the Fang City, there are shops selling all kinds of immortal treasures around, in just a few years, the efficiency of the Ling Xi Pei has been greatly improved, Ming Qin bought a few pieces in Dihuang County, in addition to giving them to Jiang Lin sisters and Wen Zhu, he also kept a piece. Later, when I went to the Cliff, there was no altar on the mountain, and the Lingxi Pendant lost its effectiveness, and when the Shenguang Sect attacked the mountain in a big way, I didn't know where it was lost. Even if it's still there, it's almost the same as Gu Dong.

Ming Qin had to go to the branch of the Psychic Dao and choose a piece of Lingxi. Tonglingdao is one of the chaebols of Donghua Kingdom, which has the nature of a monopoly.

There is a saying that 'the world is big, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers'. The government monopolized the benefits of the mountains since ancient times, and in ancient times, there was a history of governing the mountains and grains, and the young government was in charge of the benefits of the mountains. The former was government revenue, and the latter was the emperor's private property.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was eloquent and strategic, and he managed the four yi, making the people poor and wealthy, so he took the salt and iron industries into the official camp, and later generations basically followed this policy. This is also due to the Confucian idea of valuing agriculture and suppressing commerce, no matter how developed the merchant is, his social status is not high, and he can only rely on the government to seek financial gains.

This kind of government-run business is often fat, Cao Xueqin's family relied on the relationship with Kangxi, and did it in Jiangning weaving for decades.

Some industries that have a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood are incapable of being operated by private individuals, and it is understandable that they should be run by the government. It's a pity that the people can't enjoy the benefits, and they only raise one generation of rats, and the lost country and the defeated family are all from this generation.

The most terrible thing in the world is not the decay of the way, but the depravity of the human heart. When the two are also cause and effect of each other. The more corrupt the Tao is, the more depraved the human heart becomes. The depravity of the human heart has given the way of decay.

On the contrary, 'the hearts of the people are united, and Mount Tai moves'. The hard work of people's hearts will surely be able to blow away the dark clouds in the sky and create a good situation. Things in the world are extremely difficult, but no matter what the circumstances, people can always choose to realize their own value.

Ming Qin was a relatively pure practitioner and was relatively indifferent to money. This is just the opposite of the atmosphere of the fairy world, most of the monks in the fairy world are very utilitarian, and their dependence on medicine and spirit stones is very serious, so although they can shorten the cultivation cycle, they must have considerable financial resources.

Traditional monks often struggle to achieve anything in their lifetimes, and in order to avoid the dissipation of their spirits, they need to go out of their bodies and find a new body to continue their practice.

The cultivation of the immortal world does not pay so much attention to immortality, and longevity is too far away, and it cannot be achieved without great perseverance and great wisdom. Immortal cultivation focuses more on strength and fame, and the effect of cultivation may be compensated for by various methods, such as beautification, beautification, false pills, and skull replacement.

To be sure, the study of various methods by Daoists does enrich the practice of Taoism, and it is not all useless. But this kind of quick success and quick profit practice inevitably fell behind, Lao Tzu said, 'out of the distance, its knowledge of the less', these practices and the road of immortality inevitably have some opposite meanings.

Although Ming Qin did not deliberately seek wealth, his luck was not bad, and he got a lot of valuable things in the Imperial Tomb Underground Palace and the Shenguang Sect, and he always had tens of thousands of dollars on him.

I bought a piece of Lingxi Pendant in the Psychic Dojo, equipped with a Psychic Talisman, took out the talisman left by Du Fangxi, took a photo of the Hue Bead in the Lingxi Pendant, and sacrificed the talisman letter, and after a while, I heard Du Fangxi's voice: "You are ......"

When Du Fangxi saw the unfamiliar sigil, she faintly looked forward to it, but she was not sure.

"Sister Fangxi, it's me. Where are you?"

Ming Qin stayed bored in the Shen Workshop, there were many people during the day, Qin Suhui hid him far away, for fear of attracting gossip, Ming Qin Qing was idle, and wanted to go to Duanmu's house to find ancient miracles, but he didn't know where to start.

"You finally remembered to give me a letter. ”

Du Fangxi was overjoyed, "Senior Sister Xiao is going to participate in the archery competition today, do you want to come and watch?"

"Okay, where?"

Ming Qin took the initiative to contact Du Fangxi just to meet her.

"You come to Erxian Village. I'll go out and pick you up. ”

Erxianzhuang built a grand dojo in order to hold the immortal fair, and Ming Qin was not familiar with the path, so if there was no one to guide him, he might not be able to find it.

"Okay, I'll be right over. ”

Ming Qin turned to the streets and alleys where no one was, conjured up the golden wings of a phoenix, and rose to the sky. His Divine Flying Technique is faster than the Immortal Car, but the Immortal Car uses mechanical force, and it is always a consumption if you travel long distances, so it is not as convenient as the Immortal Car.

Erxian Village is not too far from the Divine Workshop, and Ming Qin is still used to using the Divine Flying Technique, without dragging his feet.

The newly built dojo in Erxianzhuang is full of people inside and out, and it is really a car like flowing water, and the river is endless.

Ming Qin saw Du Fangxi standing on the stone steps outside from a distance, she was wearing a snow-colored dress and a tulle hat, which looked even more pretentious and extraordinary.

"Sister Fangxiβ€”"

Ming Qin flew to Du Fangxi's side, Du Fangxi was caught off guard, took a step back in fright, patted his chest and glared at Ming Qin, and said lightly: "Why are you chattering, scare me." ”

"When did my sister become so timid? ”

Ming Qin grabbed Du Fangxi's arm and grinned.

Du Fangxi pursed her lips and smiled, "The archery competition is about to start, let's go in quickly." ”

There are different gyms in the dojo, the dojo of the archery competition is not very big, it can seat two or three thousand people, and there are tickets to enter the game, these tickets were sold out a few days ago, and it can be said that it is difficult to find a ticket.

However, Du Fangxi came on behalf of Tiannan Shenni, and Biwu Palace is one of the proprietors of the Immortal Dao Society, so she should naturally have a place.

Xiao Qi, as a contestant, can bring a few relatives to cheer on. Many canopies were set up around the arena for the players and relatives to rest, and Xiao Qi's mother Ye Fangqing, Duanmu Yi and Duanmu Yi sat under the canopy.

Ming Qin followed Du Fangxi into the awning and said hello with a smile, "Mrs. Xiao, Miss Duanmu ......"

Duanmuyi also politely gave up his seat to Ming Qin, and when he saw Ming Qin coming alone, he asked, "Didn't Sister Su come?"

Ming Qin shook his head and said, "The store is a little busy, and Aunt Su may not be able to leave." ”

In fact, he sneaked out to buy a spirit rhino pendant, and then contacted Du Fangxi, and rushed over directly, without informing Qin Suhui at all.

Qin Suhui and Du Fang didn't deal with each other very much, so Ming Qin would not be stupid enough to let them meet often and make trouble for themselves.

Duanmuyi was originally quite enthusiastic about Ming Qin, and she also felt very embarrassed when that kind of thing happened last time, but fortunately, Ming Qin was in a coma at that time, and she was just a dream, and she was not impressed.

Duanmu Yi secretly felt weak, and was afraid that Ye Fangqing would see the flaws, so he forced a smile and said: "I didn't know that the son was not strong enough to drink, and he didn't stop it, so he let the villains take advantage of it." It's a sin. ”

"Madame need not blame herself. This matter has nothing to do with you, I have heard that Caotou wine is the first wine in Donghua, and I am greedy for a cup, no wonder others. ”

In retrospect, Ming Qin also knew that someone had tampered with the wine, but he couldn't determine who did it and what his intentions were. In short, the people of Erxianzhuang are still a little careful, neither close nor offended.

At this time, an old man in a green robe walked into the middle of the field and announced the rules of the game. This archery competition is also simple, although the immortal dao will compete in its own strength, try to abandon the factor of magic weapons. After all, archery has been replaced by guns and has lost its value in actual combat. Rules that are too complicated don't make much sense.

Confucius said, 'If you don't shoot the main skin, it's a different family'. Everyone's material strength is different, for the sake of fairness, the competition is eyesight and accuracy.

Those who enter the archery competition are all temporary choices, many of them are rookies of the Taoist school, and there are also loose cultivators who are proficient in this way.

The competition is divided into three groups, with more than 10 people in each group, each of whom shoots 10 arrows in a row, and then ranks according to accuracy. After the first round of the competition, the distance between the targets will be lengthened and the difficulty will be increased. In the final round, moving targets are used to select the top three.

Archery is a comparison of eyesight and heart, and there are no fierce and hot scenes.

Xiao Qi was divided into the first group, wearing a military uniform, dressed neatly. In the first round, she did not use the compound bow sent by Duanmu Yi, but used an ordinary single bow. First, the speed of the first round is lower, and the single bow is lighter, so there is more room for free play. And the requirements for the ranking are not too high, just make sure to enter the top 10 and not be eliminated.

When the players entered the field, the surrounding awnings immediately burst into earth-shattering cheers.

The contestants were very calm, smiling and waving their hands, looking very personable, which was probably related to the usual cultivation of the mind.

Everyone got up from their seats, stepped out of the canopy, and stood behind the railing to watch.

Du Fangxi tugged at the corner of Ming Qin's clothes, leaned over to him and whispered: "Senior Sister Li and I sent a message this morning, and the situation in Youbi seems to have changed somewhat. ”

Ming Qin was stunned, he hadn't heard the news of the country of the nose for a long time, he didn't feel that he had a bit of a fluke mentality, and he still had no clue about the arrangement of the formation, and he really couldn't help the war situation of the country with the nose.

"How?"

"Senior Sister Li said that Tieya went to Rock City. The junior sister wondered what kind of agreement Tieya and Morie had reached. ”

Li Ruoxin only talked to Du Fangxi about it, and asked her how the preparation of the magic circle was. The situation in the DPRK and China is still unclear, but Li Ruoxin and Dongyuan have been actively preparing for war, and even if the war resumes, they will not be defenseless and defeated.

Iron Cliff has a heavy army and has always been the object of all parties. Iron Cliff, the Elephant Lord, and Mori Jiang have the same attitude towards Pillow Ge City, and they all want to strengthen their control over Pillow Ge City, collect the armed forces of the Yi people, and establish the supreme authority of the Nose People.

There are quite a few descendants of the Heavenly Family and other tribes of the Nose Country, but they are scattered everywhere and do not belong to each other, and the Lord implements the strategy of division and system, forcing them to change to the customs of the Nose people, and they have achieved great results over the years. Only the Lianmin of the seven major city-states rebelled and still had considerable strength.

After the elephant lord escaped from Jingu Garden, he swept the city and was reinstated, and with the assistance of Yin Wuya and Mrs. Moyu, some immortal masters, Jinguyuan sat and watched the success or failure for his own interests.

Tieya is the confidant of the elephant lord, but he has a heavy army in his hands, and his ambition is not small. Now suddenly approaching the royal city, it is indeed a bit unpredictable.

"I plan to pay attention to Master Ming and return to Pillow City to assist Senior Sister Li. ”

Du Fangxi and Li Ruoxin have a close relationship, and have been helping Li Ruoxin to support the situation for many years, and now they have finally taken a turnaround, and the good situation is not easy to come by. If Tieya really colluded with Senjiang, the situation of Pillow Ge City would inevitably be very dangerous, and Du Fang couldn't sit idly by.

"I'll go back with you. ”

Although this trip did not achieve its goal, the alliance between Pillow Gecheng and Dongyuan is not weak, and no matter how Yin is there, it may not be impossible to make a difference. Besides, Gan Qianhe is still staying in Pillow City, and the war in the country must be completely resolved in order to gain a firm foothold and have no worries.

Du Fangxi stared at Ming Qin with a complicated expression, and said slowly: "After watching this game, let's go back to Biwu Palace to meet the master." ”

Du Fangxi is here on behalf of Tiannan Shenni, and Xiao Qi is a proud disciple of Biwu Palace, this game is related to the reputation of Biwu Palace, although she is worried about the war in the Nose Country, she can only calm herself and wait for the game to end.

With the players will shoot out a feather arrow, the field is thunderous, these players are good at archery, superb archery, after several years or even more than ten years of practice, the possibility of missing is very small, seven or eight out of ten can hit the bull's-eye.

However, the rules of the fairy road competition are very precise, and the production of arrow targets is very strict. There can be no mistakes.

After the ten feather arrows are shot, the accuracy is also counted, and the players can take a break. Xiao Qi's results are quite impressive, with an accuracy of 10 points as the best, and Xiao Qi's average score is 9.78, ranking first among 10 people.

Next, there will be the remaining two groups to shoot one by one, Xiao Qi has to walk on the canopy to rest, Ye Fangqing hurriedly stepped forward to comfort, looking very excited. Xiao Qi is quite calm, but this kind of grand event, can have a good performance, whether it is a great honor for Biwu Palace or herself, after all, she is a girl in her twenties, and she can't help but show a little self-satisfaction.

"Senior Sister Xiao, congratulations. The first battle was won, and I believe that the following performances will become more and more exciting. ”

Du Fangxi and Xiao Qi are in the same friendship, and they also stepped forward to congratulate with a smile.
