Tibet

Everyone obviously understood the rules, and they were all eager to try. Li Ye also vaguely guessed that it must be an iron pill or a stone pill.

At this time, two servants brought a table and placed it two feet away. The butler placed three porcelain bottles on the table.

"Just two feet away!"

Qiao Xingzhong stood up and walked down the steps, with several stone pellets the size of table tennis balls in his hands.

He smiled slightly at Li Ye and said: "I throw stones, and you hit them. The one who breaks the most porcelain bottles wins. Do you understand?"

Qiao Xingzhong glanced at the young man again and said with a smile: "Wang Shun, you beat me often, you go first! Set an example for Brother Li."

The young man took off his outer robe, revealing his muscular upper body. He moved his muscles, and the muscles on his arms were particularly plump and strong.

"Ashun, show your true skills!"

Several polo players cheered the young man up. They were all servants of the palace who practiced martial arts together and were very familiar with each other.

The young man picked up the polo club and took a good stance. Qiao Xingzhong suddenly threw a stone pellet, much like playing baseball in later generations. The young man swung the club and the stone pellet flew out, 'Bang! ’ A porcelain bottle was smashed to pieces.

Everyone cheered loudly, "Well done!"

Li Ye also nodded. He played well and must have worked hard. Qiao Bin was particularly nervous. This Wang Shun was recommended by the palace early this morning. He ranked third among the polo players of King Si Ning's servant. He has real ability. Qiao Bin Bin was worried that Li Ye could not suppress his aura.

"Come again!"

Qiao Xingzhong threw another stone pill, and the young man hit it with a swing, only to hear 'Dang! ’ There was a sound, and the bottle was hit, but the bottle was not broken, it was just shaken.

This is a stoneware bottle specially used for polo practice. Although the quality is poor, the wall of the bottle is very thick. It must be hit on the front to shatter. If hit on the side, it will easily slide over.

"Wang Shun, this doesn't count!"

"I know, please ask Manager Qiao to vote again!"

The young man swallowed, his hands kept holding the club, his body swayed slightly, he was a little nervous.

Qiao Xingzhong threw the third stone ball again. The young man swung hard and the stone ball hit in a straight line, which was very powerful. Unfortunately, it just missed the ball and missed the porcelain bottle.

Young's face was immediately filled with frustration, and he could not hide the disappointment in his eyes.

Several polo players cheered him up, "One out of three is pretty good. That kid couldn't hit any of them."

Qiao Xingzhong sighed secretly, feeling a little disappointed. The shooter he was looking for was Qi Yong, the number one player in the palace, who could hit seven out of ten shots at the porcelain bottle.

"Brother Li, it's your turn!"

Li Ye nodded, carrying his half-old club and walking forward, half-crouching on horseback, his heart was still and his mind was empty.

After the butler placed the three porcelain bottles, Qiao Xingzhong shouted loudly and threw the stone pellet, much faster than before.

Li Ye was as still as a mountain, Ishimaru came in front of him, and swung the club out like lightning, with a crisp sound after hitting the ball, followed by 'Bang! ’ There was a sound, the speed of the ball was too fast, and before everyone saw Ishimaru, the porcelain bottle on the far left had been smashed into pieces.

"Okay!" Qiao Bin clapped his hands excitedly. He was the only one in the yard who cheered. The other polo players looked uncomfortable. This shot was so beautiful and impeccable.

"The second one is coming!"

Qiao Xingzhong threw the stone pill, and secretly shouted in his heart, 'Oops! ’ He missed the throw, and the stone ball hit Li Ye’s body. He should have moved forward a little bit before Li Ye could swing. Now that it was thrown toward his body, how could he still swing?

Qiao Xingzhong was about to say that the shot did not count, but Li Ye turned his body 180 degrees and hit Ishimaru accurately with a backhand shot. Ishimaru shot hard, 'Bang! ’ The second porcelain bottle was smashed to pieces.

"Beautiful!" Everyone couldn't help but cheer. This turn around and backhand shot was really brilliant, and no one else could do it.

Wang Shun's face was burning. This guy was indeed better than him.

Qiao Bin raised his arms with excitement, "Two hits, two hits, Brother Li wins!"

Qiao Xingzhong was stunned. He didn't expect that he made a mistake in throwing the ball, but the opponent could still hit it. This was the first time he saw it. His son was right, this guy is really smart!

His eyes gradually glowed, and he laughed loudly: "Brother Li, how about we do a double jump for the third hit?"

Everyone around was in an uproar!

Li Ye bowed slightly and said, "Uncle, please explain, what does double jumping mean?"

"oh?"

Qiao Xingzhong was even more surprised, "Is this your first time?"

"It's my first time for you to fight, you don't understand the rules!"

Qiao Xingzhong gave a thumbs up, "It's so great for the first time. It's like you have been tempered for thousands of times. You are so talented!"

In fact, he misunderstood. It was his first time to hit porcelain bottles, but Li Ye had been hitting Ishimaru since he was four years old. It was really hard work. Of course, talent is another matter.

Li Ye didn't explain deliberately and listened quietly to him explaining the rules.

"Double jump means that if the stone pill moves, the porcelain bottle will also move. Do you understand?"

Li Ye nodded. He was just shooting sports targets. He didn't know if he had practiced it before, but he had completely mastered that wonderful control and could hit anything.

He took up his posture again, held his breath, and felt calm, but the corners of his eyes were catching the movement of the porcelain vase. The third porcelain vase was currently in the hands of the butler.

"start!"

Qiao Xingzhong threw the stone pill violently, the position was right, and there was no deviation this time. At the same time, the butler also threw the porcelain bottle high.

Hitting the moving stone pill to break the moving porcelain bottle is more than ten times more difficult than the static bottle just now. Of course, there are masters who can do it, but none of the hundreds of servants in the Sining Palace can do it.

Li Ye narrowed his eyes. At that moment, a wonderful feeling of control came from his heart. He swung the club and said, 'Pop! ’ Ishimaru flashed a gray shadow in the air, ‘Bang! ’ With a sound, the porcelain bottle disintegrated in the air and was smashed to pieces.

There was a roar of cheers in the yard, it was so wonderful.

Qiao Xingzhong's eyes shone, he stroked his beard and smiled, "This boy is a rare creature!"

Li Ye was invited into the study, Qiao Xingzhong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Please sit down!"

But there were only a few couches, which really bothered Li Ye. He was most afraid of visiting rich families. Unlike poor people who sit on benches or long benches, rich people sit on couches and have to kneel down. How would his knees feel? Come on?

Qiao Xingzhong noticed Li Ye's embarrassment, chuckled, and sat down cross-legged, "Young Master Li, feel free to do whatever you want!"

Li Ye also sat down cross-legged, which was more or less the same.

"This is what happened!"

Qiao Xingzhong told him the reason for playing polo, "Steward Tian of the Sining Palace has gone back to his hometown to retire. I am the second steward. Normally I should be promoted to the chief steward.

but! There is also a third steward in the palace, named Hu. His wife used to be the princess's personal maid. He took the wife route, and the princess wanted this third steward Hu to be the chief steward.

The prince didn't want to break the rules, but he didn't want to make the princess unhappy, so he thought of a way. The prince liked polo the most, so he asked me and the steward Hu San to organize a polo team. Ten days later, the winner would be the winner. As a big steward, the princess agreed.

There is a difficulty here. There are hundreds of servants in the palace. The prince’s intention is to select polo players from the servants and not to hire foreign aid. Brother Li, do you understand? "

Li Ye said sadly, "Uncle, what you mean is that even though I won just now, I still can't play this game for you?"

"No! No! Mr. Li misunderstood. I think the prince meant that you are not allowed to invite professional polo masters from outside. But you are not, so there is still a glimmer of hope. I want to invite you to be a substitute, even if you have no chance to play. , I will still give you 20 guan of money. If you can play, it will be 50 guan of money, no matter you win or lose, how about it?"

What else? I still owe Qiao Bin thirty taels of silver!

Li Ye nodded, "Then we will make an agreement!"

I called him Little Brother Li at first, and it felt good, so I changed my name to Young Master Li.

Please vote for everyone!
