Princess Consort Is No Pushover

At this time, Chu Xuanchen and Xian Wang had already taken their bows and arrows, and they took a step forward one after another.

Chu Xuanchen coldly glanced at the two rows of red lanterns on the opposite side, took the lead in placing an arrow on the bow, and aimed at the top row of lanterns.

The row of lanterns at the top was about ten feet higher than the row at the bottom, and the difficulty was also higher. He likes challenging challenges, so he gave the row at the bottom to King Xian.

King Xian's archery skills are extraordinary, and he originally wanted to challenge the high difficulty and shoot the row above.

Seeing that Chu Xuanchen took the lead in aiming at the upper row, he had no choice but to aim at the lower row instead.

As soon as Chu Xuanchen took aim, he coldly wanted to draw the bow.

Suddenly, he found that the bowstring was very difficult to pull. He tried again and found that the bowstring was extremely strong and very tight, and it was very difficult to pull it.

He took a closer look at the bowstring, and found that the material of the bowstring seemed to be different from that of King Xian.

Xian Wang's string is made of ordinary beef tendon, but his string is thicker and tighter than Xian Wang's, obviously not the same material, he looked carefully and found that it was actually made of tiger tendon.

Tiger tendons are generally used to make two-stone (dan) bows because of their strong endurance, strength, and toughness!

And tendon is generally used to make a stone bow!

The virtuous king has one stone bow, so his is two stone bows!

One stone equals 120 catties, and two stones equals 240 catties.

That is to say, King Xian's bow only needs 120 jin of arm strength to pull it, while his needs more than 240 jin of arm strength to pull it!

-

As soon as he raised his head, he saw King Xian slowly draw the bow.

This stone bow can't be opened by ordinary people, but the sage king can pull it back, which shows that the sage king has real skills.

Chu Xuanchen gave Eunuch Liu a cold look, no wonder Eunuch Liu would give him the bow first, it turned out that there was something wrong with the bow.

But he didn't say anything, just stopped his hands, stood there quietly, glanced at the row of lanterns, and began to observe the wind direction around him.

-

At this time, King Xian had already shot the first arrow, and the arrow shot past with a "swish", and immediately hit a red lantern in the lower row.

The arrow pierced through the lantern, and the lantern shattered at the sound, and the little white mouse inside rushed to the ground with lightning speed, seemingly safe and sound.

"Good!" Everyone applauded immediately!

Yun Ruoyue saw that Chu Xuanchen didn't shoot the arrow, but stood there and looked around.

She quickly called him, but he didn't seem to hear it.

A strong north wind blew in gusts, making his hair and robe flutter.

When the queen saw this, her heart skipped a beat. Chu Xuanchen must have discovered the mystery of the bowstring.

But found no use.

The appearance of the bow string is the same as that of an ordinary string, but the material is different, and ordinary people can't tell the difference at all.

Chu Xuanchen's is a two-stone bow, which requires twice as much strength as that of the virtuous king.

Even if he makes trouble, Eunuch Liu can say that he took the wrong bow and arrow.

However, he was also known as the God of War anyway, if he couldn't pull the two crossbows, he wouldn't have the face to say so.

At this time, King Xian shot three red lanterns one after another. When the arrows pierced through the lanterns, all the mice inside ran out and ran nimbly on the ground one by one without being hurt at all.

"Okay! King Xian's archery skills are really good!" There was another burst of cheers from the side!

"But why doesn't King Li still shoot arrows?" The others asked suspiciously.

"I don't know, is it because King Li's archery skills are just a vain reputation, and he is not good at archery at all?"

"Impossible. How can a soldier who fights a war know how to shoot arrows? I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd!"
