Tibet

At night, Li Ye came to Chanshui as usual. His practice these days was very different from before. Swinging the sword was very difficult and the resistance was surprisingly high.

He used to be able to swing at least twenty-five swords in one dive, but now he can swing five swords which is pretty good, not as good as when he first went down into the well.

Of course, it couldn't be a regression. Pei Min had told him a long time ago that it could only be that the number of times he swung his sword during each dive was getting more and more, not less.

Obviously, he has embarked on another path of Suzaku Mental Technique. It is very likely that just as Lie Feng judged, he will go back to Pei Xingyan's path and practice strong and vigorous martial arts instead of Pei Min's delicate and precise martial arts. .

But this feeling has just begun and is not yet so certain.

"Crash!" With a sound, Li Ye rushed out of the water and took a big breath of air.

But he found Pei Min on the shore. Li Ye smiled and said, "Why is uncle here?"

Pei Min smiled slightly and said: "You have practiced well. I just came to tell you that you can come to my house before 1:00 tomorrow morning. You know, Wubenfang!"

"Is there anything?"

"Of course there's something important. You'll know when you come here."

After saying that, Pei Min turned around and drifted away. Li Ye watched him go away, took another deep breath, and dived into the bottom of the river.

The next morning, Li Ye came to Pei Min's residence in Wubenfang. This was actually Lie Feng's residence outside the palace. However, Lie Feng rarely left the palace, so this place could basically be regarded as Pei Min's house.

Pei Min was waiting for him in the house. The two came to the living room. Pei Min asked Li Ye to sit down and said, "I came to see you today because I have something to tell you. In a few days, the emperor is going to go hunting in spring. I found that your name is actually there." On the list!”

Li Ye frowned, "Could they have the same name?"

"The address is correct, Lane 5, District 3, Changlefang, right!"

Li Ye scratched his head, "This is strange, why is my name on the list?"

"I don't know either. Didn't anyone give you a hint?"

Li Ye suddenly remembered that Lie Feng had told him that Feilong would meet him when the time was right, and that Gao Lishi had also said that there would be arrangements during this period, which probably meant Chun Shou.

"Gao Lishi seems to have hinted at me!"

Pei Min nodded, "That's right. He drew up the list. There are thousands of people, and many family members of princes and nobles also want to participate, so don't worry, but I am very worried!"

"What is uncle worried about?"

Pei Min sighed and said, "Spring hunting! What are you going to hunt with?"

Li Ye was startled, "Uncle, are you talking about bows and arrows?"

Pei Min smiled bitterly and said: "You have never practiced bow and arrow. When the time comes, you have to take the martial arts test in school. What will you do?"

“It’s impossible for everyone to know how to shoot an arrow!”

Pei Min shook his head, "Except for the eunuchs, palace maids and imperial concubines, everyone else can shoot, including young women. Suzaku and Falcon are both masters of mounted archery. They can shoot no arrows within a hundred steps. Other polo players They are all masters of riding and shooting, but you are the only one who is not.

Then all the generals will be there, the emperor will be there, and your grandfather will be there too. You say, ‘I can’t shoot arrows! ’ Where do you want me to put my face? Where to put your grandfather's face? "

"What should we do?"

Li Ye was reluctant, "I didn't want to go in the first place. I'm a commoner. What does Chunshou have to do with me?"

"You don't understand what I mean!"

Pei Min stared into his eyes and said, "You still have five days from today!"

"There are two types of bows and arrows, one is the walking bow and the other is the riding bow. The walking bow is the basis of riding the bow. Basically everyone starts training with the walking bow, but you are different. You are a polo master. Having practiced the Suzaku Mental Technique, you can definitely start training from riding a bow."

Pei Min took Li Ye to the Qianniuwei Campus and gave him his bow and arrows. "This is my Sirius Bow. I haven't used it for a long time. I give it to you."

Li Ye took over this simple-style bow and immediately fell in love with it. The whole bow had smooth lines and was full of the vicissitudes of time. There was even patina on the back of the bow.

"Is this a famous bow?"

"It's not a famous bow, but it was used by famous generals."

"Who?" Li Ye asked curiously.

Pei Min pointed at the end of the bow.

Li Ye saw it, and there was a line of words engraved on the end of the bow. Although the handwriting was a bit blurry, he still recognized it, 'Luo Shixin's Sirius Bow! ’

"Luo Shixin's bow?" Li Ye's eyes widened.

Pei Min nodded, "It's more than a hundred years old and the bow is very well maintained. I bought it at a weapons shop."

"This is Luo Shixin's bow. Why did uncle abandon it?"

Pei Min smiled slightly and said: "I'm not a weapons collector, so why would I want to give them up? I have three bows. Just like this bow, one stone costs five buckets. This bow is easier to use."

Li Ye nodded, and he sighed again. This is the bow of Luo Shixin, a famous general in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Luo Shixin must be Luo Cheng!

He followed his uncle's example, carrying the quiver behind his back, drawing arrows from behind his shoulder, holding the bow in his left hand, with the quiver on his right shoulder.

"Look at how I'm going to cum?"

Pei Min spurred his horse to gallop, stirring up clouds of yellow dust on the school grounds. He pulled out a wolf-fang arrow, held the bow in his left hand, and pulled the string with his right hand. When he pulled the bow, he shot out an arrow.

The arrows are like lightning, ‘pop! ’ It hit the wooden target in the throat a hundred steps away.

Li Ye couldn't help but applaud and cheer, "What a great arrow!"

Several of Pei Min's men also cheered.

Pei Min urged his horse back and said: "Come and try an arrow. You are a polo master. Just like you swing a golf club, your body must be stable. This is the prerequisite for mounted shooting. I will teach you a few formulas and your eyes must be accurate. Keep your hands steady, draw the bow quickly, release the arrow tightly, and go!"

Li Ye held the bow in his hand and urged the horse to gallop. He was very fast. He also imitated Pei Min and drew an arrow. He stretched the bow and nocked the arrow. He almost missed the bow string. He drew the bow and released it. The arrow was very panicked and fell from the wooden target. Flying overhead.

Pei Min could see very clearly that Li Ye could control the horse easily with his legs, his eyesight was very sharp, his accuracy was unparalleled, and his hands were extremely steady. He didn't move at all when shooting, but he was flustered at the end and was not proficient in shooting arrows for the first time, which is normal.

Li Ye has no problem with the most important difficulties in riding and shooting. Some people have practiced eye training for many years, steady hand training for many years, and even riding skills for several years.

I taught him how to play polo since he was a child. In fact, it is related to archery. He also has the Suzaku mentality that ordinary archers do not have. It is the key to controlling power and accuracy.

Pei Min suddenly felt confident that he could let Li Ye ride out the army within five days.

Li Ye rushed back and sighed: "Uncle, I can't feel anything at all!"

Pei Min kept the three pots of arrows at his feet and said with a smile: "Shoot these three pots of arrows together with the pot of arrows on your back today, and you will feel it!"

"Too few, just over a hundred arrows, I can shoot them all in half an hour!"

Pei Min turned the horse's head and walked towards the military camp. He heard his voice coming from a distance, "Try it!"

As night fell, Pei Min came to the school grounds again and saw Li Ye sitting exhausted on a big rock with a pot of arrows at his feet. The wooden target in the distance was filled with arrows, from his ankles to his face. The yami is densely packed.

"Why is there a pot at your feet?"

Pei Min smiled and asked, "Didn't you say you would finish cumming in a while?"

"The bowstring broke, and it took me a long time to ask someone to replace it."

"Then what?" Pei Min asked.

Li Ye sighed, "This is more tiring than swinging a sword underwater. After shooting less than a pot of arrows, my arms are so sore that I can't move. It's the first time I know that archery is so tiring!"

Pei Min laughed loudly, stepped forward and said to Li Ye: "You have a stone and five buckets of bow. Pulling it once is equivalent to lifting 180 kilograms. Most people can't shoot ten arrows in a row. You actually shot more than twenty arrows in a row. Be content!”

"Uncle, I have to go to Chanshui tonight!"

Pei Min nodded, "Show me another arrow!"

Li Ye moved his arms and he was almost recovered. Li Ye got on his horse and galloped forward.

He trained to play polo at night, and his night vision was particularly good. He ran to the right side of the wooden target, drew out an arrow, stretched his bow and nocked the arrow, pulled the bow string quickly and fired, "Bang!" ’ With a sound, the wolf-fang arrow shot out quickly, and one arrow hit the wooden target’s right shoulder.

Pei Min nodded secretly. Although it was not perfect yet, he was much more proficient than at the beginning. He could string and draw the bow in one go.

Li Ye urged the horse back and said with some regret: "I feel that the hand-eye coordination is still a little bit poor."

Pei Min smiled slightly and said: "It's normal. If you practice for another day tomorrow, you can reach the level of a horse archer, but there is still a long way to go before you are proficient in horse archers."

"What is the level of proficiency with bow and horse?"

"Your proficiency with bow and horse is almost at the level of a cavalry colonel. This is also the goal of my five-day training for you."

"What about further up?"

Pei Min shook his head, "Martial arts are endless, and riding and archery is also a type of martial arts. Back then, my ancestor Pei Xingyan could fire a three-stone bow. He could shoot an arrow through five layers of armor from a hundred steps away. The arrow must penetrate the iron. It is the most basic requirement for him to hit the target 100 times. "

Li Ye nodded silently, Pei Xingyan was Pei Yuanqing!

"How far has uncle reached?"

Pei Min smiled and said: "I didn't practice polo for ten years like you. I focused more on swordsmanship. It's a pity! But I can't blame her. She wanted me to inherit her legacy instead of going into battle. Kill the enemy."

"But my uncle also said that there may be war in the world!"

Pei Min nodded, "This is my intention in training you. I hope my regrets will not appear in you."

"But I think uncle is already very powerful!"

Pei Min smiled bitterly, "That's because you haven't seen a real powerful general. When you see one, you will know what it means to be powerful."
