Chapter 57: The Arrow
Compared with Chen Qi's calmness, Chen Qian seemed much embarrassed. His clothes were mostly damaged. He should have been scratched by branches in the forest and his hair was stained with weeds and thorns. However, his expression was as firm as iron, without any slight tide.
"Pretending to be strong, it's the end of the power!"
Chen Qi sneered, whipped his horse and galloped quickly, then took off the longbow from behind and took the bow and arrow.
Whoosh!
The sword turned into a shadow and hit the bull's eye that was fifty-step.
"Good arrow!"
Around the shooting range, some onlookers cheered.
"This guy has a good shooting skills."
On the high platform, Mr. Li also exclaimed.
"This is just the beginning. Brother Qi's strength is far more than that." Ma Qian'er smiled, and Wang Luofu on the side also smiled.
Only Chen Miao looked at Chen Qian and said, "The third brother has passed the first level, and it seems that he has made progress this year."
"Yes." Ma Qian'er also looked at Chen Qian.
suddenly!
There was another cheer around, and this time the sound was much louder than before. It turned out that Chen Qi's second arrow had already shot, and it also hit the bull's eye of the hundred-step target.
After hitting the 100-step target, it means that Chen Qi has passed the second level of the camp.
But he didn't stop, pulling the bowstring...
collapse!
Another arrow shot out, but this time he aimed at a target of 150 steps.
Bang!
The arrow hit the target and slightly deviated from the bull's eye.
However, the cheers around did not stop. These 150-step targets could not be shot just by wanting. In addition to skills, they also require some luck.
Chen Qi was really lucky today, so when he tried to shoot the target with a 200-step target, although the arrow had finished its exertion, it finally shakingly inserted the target and touched the edge of the target.
quiet.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone was so surprised that they couldn't speak at Chen Qi's performance.
"Brother Qi is so awesome! It's better than my brother and I! Neither of us hit the fourth target!" Ma Qian'er exclaimed, and Wang Luofu on the side also looked very comforted.
Mr. Li looked at Chen Qi with his eyes shining.
Chen Miao frowned slightly, but the corners of his mouth were smiling.
With one arrow, Chen Qi did not continue to try the fifth target, but put away the bow and arrow, raised his hands, and greeted the surroundings. The joy on his face could not be controlled. Today he did perform extraordinaryly.
He pulled the reins and did not go to the next level. He moved directly to the side, leaving the venue free of charge, and signaled Chen Qian to step forward.
"I want to see, how can you, a waste who doesn't even dare to take a bow, admit defeat in full view of everyone!"
In the distance, everyone on the stage also found that Chen Qian was carrying only a pot of arrows.
"This person is also a child of the Chen family? Why didn't he take a bow?" Mr. Li asked.
Hearing his question, a hint of unnatural flashed across the faces of the other people, and he followed Wang Luofu and said, "Maybe I was disappointed when I was riding a horse through the forest. I asked someone to send him one."
"Can you even lose your bow when riding a horse?" Mr. Li's face was different, and a hint of contempt appeared in his eyes when he looked at Chen Qian.
"My brother Qian lives in another place and cannot practice riding and shooting often. Even if there is a mistake, it is understandable." Ma Qianer was very dissatisfied with Mr. Li's tone. She took her own bow from the side and took a step. "It just so happens that the average bow is not as good as the one from Brother Qi. Why not let Brother Qian use my one."
But before she could finish her words, there was a sudden uproar around her. Then, with a "collapse" sound, an arrow was added to the bull's eye at fifty steps on the shooting range.
"What's going on?" Ma Qian'er just talked and didn't see the whole story. She just found that the people around her were frozen in place, with a shocked look on her face.
Chen Qian took back his right hand and moved his shoulders.
"These fifty steps are okay, equivalent to seventy-five meters in the previous life, but the target of a hundred steps is equivalent to one hundred and fifty meters. Be careful." Chen Qian thought to himself, and reached out to take out an arrow from the quiver, stretched out his rack, and then...
Throw it!
Swing your right arm!
In an instant, the force was transmitted, gathered on the wrist, and threw the arrow in his hand out!
The arrow drew a parabola with a very small arc in the air, and then steadily inserted the bull's eye of the hundred-step target.
"Um!" Chen Qi, who was watching the show next to him, turned pale, as if he had suffered internal injuries.
"So amazing!" This time, Ma Qian'er finally saw the reason clearly and exclaimed.
"What an amazing arm strength, so accurate head!" Chen Miao couldn't help but scream, and then smiled, "It seems that my third brother's cultivation has made great progress."
"Yes, throwing arrows with your hands is much more difficult than shooting arrows with a bow," Wang Luofu also sighed, "It seems that Xiao Qian is not losing the bow, but wants to surprise us."
When shooting arrows with a bow, it is determined by being tough and bearing the reaction force of the bow string when it crashes, and shooting out the sharp arrows. Chen Qian now directly used the force of his arm to drive the sharp arrows and adjusting the shooting angle with his wrist, which is indeed even more amazing.
However, Chen Qian was also helpless. His bowing skills were indeed not very good, but he had long experience in throwing long arrows with his hands. Not to mention anything else, most of the four great kings of the Dragon Shoushan bandits were hated by this hand.
"It looks good." Chen Qian shook his right hand and his eyes turned to the third target again, one hundred and fifty steps.
"One hundred and fifty steps are equivalent to two hundred and twenty-five meters."
Thinking about it, Chen Qian took out another arrow. Since Chen Qi shot four targets, he could not easily admit defeat. It is inevitable that those who practice martial arts have a competitive spirit. If they are not fighting fiercely, how can they step on others to reach higher levels?
Swish!
The arm swung, the arrow moved, and the arrow flashed, and it was firmly nailed to the bull's eye at 150 steps.
Seeing this scene, Chen Qi's face suddenly turned red. The third arrow he had just shot failed to hit the bull's eye, which was equivalent to being surpassed by Chen Qian.
The soldiers around were already silent, holding their breath, as if they were afraid of distracting Chen Qian, so they missed this rare scene.
Chen Qian frowned slightly, feeling that these 150 steps were already a bit difficult. He wanted to keep his head accurate and ensure the range. It would be fine if he was on the ground, his feet were pressing and his strength overlapped, so his explosive power was naturally amazing. However, when he was on the horse at this time, the force that the horse could withstand was limitless.
"Forget it, it's just an arrow anyway, I'm not going to break the fifth target."
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Chen Qian took a deep breath, stared at the fourth target in the distance, reached out to take out an arrow from the pot, secretly calmed down, and then slowly spread his arms.
Not far behind him, Chen Qi, with a gloomy face, was gritting his teeth secretly and cursing Chen Qian for failure.
Maybe it was really his curse that took effect. Just as Chen Qian moved his right arm and swung his arm hard, his mount suddenly had four hooves softened and collapsed towards the ground.
"Okay!" Chen Qi's eyes lit up.
"What a pity!" Chen Miao and Ma Qian'er felt regretful.
"It just happened to be a mistake at this time! Since that's the case, I won't pursue a correct head!" Chen Qian was moved by a mount and immediately lost his head. His heart became ruthless. On his swinging arm, his large tendons jumped quickly, stretched and bounced, and his arms swelled slightly!
