Thinking of this, Li Sanbai couldn't help but shudder, looking at these wandering girls on the street, he suddenly felt a lot more pleasing to the eye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The two of them played around on the street, Wuyan took Li Sanbai to eat a lot of snacks, and took him to visit some scenic spots, just passing by a willow forest, he stopped and said to Li Sanbai: "Sanbai, let's go to that woods to have a look, there are often people trying to shoot archery, let's go and see the excitement, how about it?"

"Good!"

Li Sanbai agreed, and then walked towards the forest with Wuyan.

This willow forest is located at a corner of the Han River, and the wind is so strong that the willow leaves on the trees are swaying.

In the woods, dotted with cloud lanterns, hung high on the tops of some willow trees, in front of the willow trees, there was a clearing, on the open space was erected a row of arrow targets, and many people were bending their bows and arrows, shooting arrows at the target star.

Wuyan smiled at Li Sanbai and said: "Most of these people are soldiers in the army, and they often come here to try archery in their daily leisure, and over time, this willow forest has also become a scenery in Fengdu." ”

Li Sanbai nodded and looked at the people who shot arrows, only to see that most of them had resolute faces and a battlefield aura on their bodies, which was indeed as Wuyan said.

The bows and arrows held by these people are not famous weapons, but they have been specially forged, and one arrow can shoot up to 300 steps, which is not much better than ordinary flying swords.

One of them, dressed in a scribe's robe, with a white face and beard, held a black iron longbow in his hand, twisted the bow and set up arrows, and the arrows hit the target, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen arrows had been shot.

A group of people gathered around him, talking and applauding, but he was also slightly moved, and when he turned his eyes, he was suddenly surprised, and thought in his heart: "It turned out to be him! He also went to this willow forest to shoot arrows." ”

While she was thinking about it, she heard a laugh from the side, and the young scribe she had seen in the day walked up from the street on the side, saluted the man, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be General Cai Xie! No wonder there is such a skill!"

Cai Xie glanced at him, smiled slightly, handed the bow and arrow in his hand to an attendant next to him, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Qin! Mr. is not studying crafts at home, why did he come to this willow forest? Could it be that Mr. Qin also has attainments in archery?"

Mr. Qin shook his head and said, "Archery is one of the six arts of a gentleman, but I, Chu Qin, am a contemptible person, how can I be accomplished in this? ”

After saying that, he said to a big man in cloth beside him: "Tie Li, you go and try the power of the crossbow." ”

"Good!"

Li Sanbai walked out from behind Chu Qin with the iron force he had seen in the daytime, holding a bow in his hand, flattening it in front of him, aiming at the arrow target in front of him.

"Why is this bow like this?"

Cai Xie was taken aback when he saw the crossbow in Tie Li's hand, Li Sanbai looked at the crossbow with no face, and saw that there was an arm in the middle of the bow, and there was a trigger under the arm.

"Whew!"

In the midst of everyone's astonishment, Tie Li pulled the trigger and shot an arrow, "Du", and hit a target three hundred steps away.

"Good archery!"

Li Sanbai exclaimed, the cultivator urged the flying sword with his true qi, like an arm and a finger, he could easily stab a distant target, but the use of a bow and arrow was all thanks to his own archery skills, and the iron power could hit the target star three hundred steps away, and the archery skills were already outstanding.

Cai Xie also nodded slightly on the side, only Wuyan frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "No, the crossbow in his hand is much easier to aim than an ordinary bow and arrow!"

Chu Qin smiled slightly, and said to Tie Li: "Tie Li, take two hundred steps back and shoot another arrow!"

"Good!"

Tie Li agreed, and according to Chu Qin's words, he took two hundred steps back.

When the onlookers saw this, they were in an uproar, some people were shooting arrows by themselves, and when they saw Tie Li like this, they were also surprised, and they couldn't help but come over.

Someone shouted: "This brother, if he can draw a bow at 400 paces, he is already a marksman, and he can fight against flying swords!

"Yes, if the bow and arrow are so powerful, how can the Jin's Divine Machine Battalion be so terrifying?"

"Not bad!"

For a while, everyone shouted, all of them did not believe that iron power could shoot at an arrow target 500 steps away.

The reason for this is that the distance of archery is more than 300 steps, and its difficulty rises sharply, and if it can exceed 400 steps, it has reached the distance that an ordinary monk in the foundation building period can use a flying sword to injure the enemy. At that time, he will be able to use his bow and arrow to fight against the monks of the foundation period.

However, this is only a theoretical possibility, in the actual battle, the flying sword is more agile, and the monk's methods are endless, but it is not something that a simple bow and arrow can compete with.

However, in any case, the distance of 500 paces is very terrifying, and it can even make the monks in the foundation building period jealous.

In the face of everyone's doubts, Chu Qin didn't care, and said to Tie Li: "Tie Li, shoot arrows!"

"Hmm!"

Tie Li responded, raised the crossbow, took aim, pulled the trigger, and with a "snort", an arrow was fired!

The speed of this arrow was extremely fast, and the sound of "snorting" had not yet fallen, and the sound of "tuk" when the arrow did not enter the target had already sounded, and the tail of the arrow trembled sharply, making a crisp sound of "endless".

Everyone looked at it and saw that the arrow was still on target.

"Really shot!"

The onlookers suddenly let out a burst of exclamation, revealing an incredible expression, looked at Tie Li, and said, "What is the name of this person? When did my Chu State have such a marksman?"

"Yes, and the bow in his hand, which is strangely shaped, I don't know what kind of bow it is?"

Even the general Cai Xie also saluted Tie Li respectfully, and said: "The strong man's name is Tie Li? Cai has eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and I don't know your skills, please forgive me!"

Tie Li shook his head, handed the crossbow in his hand to Chu Qin, and said indifferently: "Everyone, it's not that I am good at archery, but that the range and accuracy of the crossbow in my hand far exceed that of ordinary bows and arrows, so I can do this." ”

"Crossbow?"

When everyone heard this, they became more and more surprised, and looked at the crossbow in Chu Qin's hand, Cai Xie's expression moved, and he said to Chu Qin: "Mr. Qin, can this crossbow be mass-produced?"

Chu Qin smiled slightly: "Compared with ordinary bows and arrows, it is naturally more troublesome." However, if the craft is skillful, a craftsman should be able to make one in two hours. ”

"Two hours!" Cai Xie perked up when he heard this, and bowed his hand to Chu Qin: "Mr. Qin, I am willing to pay a lot of money, please teach you the skills of making this crossbow bow!"

Chu Qin smiled slightly, held the crossbow in his hand, and bowed and said, "General Cai, forgive me!" Chu made the crossbow just to improve the combat strength of our Chu army, and he didn't dare to take a penny for it. ”

With that, he greeted Tie Li and took him away.

After the two of them left, Cai Xie looked at their departing backs, and his eyes were shining.
