There were ten people competing for the top spot in archery, and Yang Anxuan came up with the method of competition.

The archer stands on a stern boat and sends a straw boat down the river from upstream. Five straw figures are planted on the straw boat. The archer needs to shoot the straw figures with arrows at a distance of twenty steps in a straight line. The five arrows shoot at different objects. Five people.

When Liu Zhong heard this condition, his face turned pale. Zhou You also took a breath and sighed: "This is too difficult."

Yu Fei was unsure. He observed the speed of the water and estimated that it would only take three or two breaths for the boat to pass in front of him. It was not difficult to shoot a fixed target on land, but you must know that this is on the water, and the footing itself is unstable. Coupled with the ups and downs of the grass boat, if you can shoot one or two arrows, you are considered a master.

Meng Longfu complained in his heart, who came up with this ghost idea? Isn't this embarrassing? The person who came up with this weird idea could shoot a few arrows on his own. He didn't know that the person who came up with the idea was standing on the side walkway watching the battle.

"One arrow hit, two left abdomens", "Two arrows hit one head, left four shoulders", "Empty"......

Liu Zhong was the fifth to play. The performance of the previous players was poor, which made Liu Zhong feel panicked. Before standing in the shooting position, he took several deep breaths to calm down.

Zhou You, who was standing behind him, did not laugh. He was lined up behind Liu Zhong. The performance of the people in front made him feel nervous.

You must know that those people are all archery masters selected from nearly a hundred people. It is expected that the results of the shooting will not be so bad. The wind and waves today are a bit strong. I wonder if I can shoot well.

Holding the four arrows in his mouth, Liu Zhong put the remaining one on the string and raised his hand to signal the soldiers upstream to start releasing the boat.

The straw boat went down the river and was still several feet away from the boat. Liu Zhong let go of the string and shot out. The arrow was inserted diagonally into the straw man on the right.

Liu Zhong was relieved. If he won, at least he wouldn't be too embarrassed. He quickly took the arrows and shot again. When the straw boat passed by, all five arrows were shot out.

A target announcement came from downstream, "All five arrows hit, one on the left abdomen, two on the left leg, three on the left on the chest, four on the left on the right shoulder, and five on the left hit the head."

Liu Zhong pumped his fist excitedly, God help me, these five arrows were a bit lucky, they were extraordinary.

When Zhou You heard the report, he glanced at Liu Zhong in surprise. This guy hit all five arrows accidentally. He was so lucky.

He stood in the shooting position, closed his eyes, adjusted his breath for a moment, and signaled the boat to be released upstream. Four of the five arrows hit, but two of them hit the head. Although it was one less than Liu Zhong, his accuracy was a bit better. It's hard to tell the difference.

Meng Longfu had no experience in water shooting, and he only hit two out of five arrows. This made Meng Longfu very upset and felt a suffocation in his chest. The bow in his hand drew an arc in the air and screamed.

Yang Anxuan felt a little sorry for Meng Longfu. It could be seen that Meng Longfu had no experience in water shooting and had not mastered the rhythm well. However, he had the basics. Like Liu Zhong, he could improve quickly with a little practice.

As the last one to appear, Yu Fei is particularly eye-catching. Unlike Liu Zhong who held the arrow in his mouth, Yu Fei inserted the arrow on the ship's plank within arm's reach without hesitation.

I was so leisurely that I waved my hand upstream, signaling that the straw boat could be launched. The straw boat went down the river, and when it was about ten feet away from the boat, Yu Fei stretched out his hand to pick up the arrow, bent his bow and shot it.

The arrows were still flying in the air. Yu Fei reached out to pick up the second arrow. In one breath, all five arrows were shot out. At this time, the straw boat had just sailed directly opposite the stern boat.

The voice of the person reporting the target was a little more excited, and his voice became louder, "All five arrows hit, the first left arrow hit the head, the second left arrow hit the head, the third left arrow hit the chest, the fourth left arrow hit the chest, and the fifth left arrow hit the chest."

"Excellent shooting", "no arrows are missed", "Li Guang is reborn".

Yang Anxuan cheered loudly along with everyone, and heard Liu Zhong say that Yu Fei was a refugee from Yuzhou, and he usually worked as a guard for caravans. Such a talent cannot be lost.

Yu Fei calmly drew back his bow and glanced at Liu Zhong and Zhou You with a half-smile. The implication was that the two of them were not as good at archery as Yu, so how could they accept Yu as his subordinates.

Three of the four competitions have ended, and the bounty will be distributed after the competition in the ring. Therefore, Yu Fei, Qian Lei and others did not leave, and everyone walked to the ring to watch the battle.

There was a huge crowd in front of the arena today. Not to mention Jingkou City, there were even people from Guangling City opposite who took a boat across the river to watch the excitement.

Liu Yu was wearing casual clothes and stood with several strong men under the A-shaped ring to watch the battle. They had just competed twice, and the people competing on the stage had good skills.

"These men are all good. Let's see if we can recruit them to the Beifu Army. They are all good men against ten." Liu Yu stroked the short beard on his chin and said with a smile, "Yang is doing this well. After returning, Yuhui suggested to General Sun that our Guangling Beifu Army might as well have a few such competitions to select useful talents."

Under the C-shaped ring, Wang Gong wore a green robe and a kerchief, dressed as a scholar, and He Sheng dressed as a personal attendant, accompanied by several muscular and round bodyguards.

After looking around, Wang Gong secretly nodded in approval. Yang Anxuan's method of recruiting troops through trials was really good. Not to mention that there were many people who joined the army, the quality of the soldiers was much higher than in the past. When Wang Gong saw what he wanted to see, his interest was gone and he turned around and left.

With the last three games left, He Sheng was a little reluctant to leave and wanted to watch the games before leaving. However, the governor set off and he could only follow him step by step and back.

…………

On the platform, Meng Long Fu was as powerful as a tiger, venting his frustration at his failure in archery. He fought three times in a row to drive his opponent down and win the first place.

Meng Long's intention was still not finished. He took off his arrow robe and exposed his strong chest. He patted it with his hands and invited the battle: "Meng has not finished his fun yet. Is there any hero who can go up to the stage and fight happily? I won't, those ten taels of gold Offer it with both hands.”

Before he finished speaking, two people rushed onto the stage and rushed towards Meng Longfu. Meng Longfu gave a long laugh, retreated slightly, made fists with both hands, and greeted the two of them respectively.

Liu Yu in the audience praised: "What a good man. Huaiyu, I think he looks a bit similar to you. He must not be your brother."

Meng Huaiyu gave a bitter smile and said: "Brother Liu, this person is my younger brother Long Fu. My younger brother has a rough temperament and hangs out with a group of rangers in Jingkou. I didn't expect that he actually came to patrol Jiangjian to compete and win the championship."

Liu Yu's eyes were shining, and he stared at the lively Meng Longfu on the stage, and said with a smile: "Huaiyu, your brother is very skilled, but I'm afraid you can't match this strength. Why not let him join the Beifu Army with you, Yu Xiangsun If the general recommends him, he will definitely not let him cast his talents in secret."

"Yu has tried to persuade him several times, but my younger brother didn't listen at all, and Yu couldn't do anything to him." Meng Huaiyu shook his head and sighed.

While talking, the two people on stage were forced to the edge of the stage by Meng Longfu. Meng Longfu squatted slightly and swept his feet against the fallen leaves. The two had no choice but to jump off the stage.

Cheers rang out, and Liu Yu shouted "hello" twice, then turned to Meng Huaiyu and said, "Don't be anxious about this. Huaiyu found an opportunity to invite your younger brother. I would like to invite your two brothers to drink."

As an assistant to Liu Yu, Meng Huaiyu knew that he loved talents as much as his life and was a person who could achieve great things. From the bottom of his heart, he also hoped that his younger brother could stay with Liu Yu so that the two brothers could spend more time together.

"Who else?" Meng Longfu shouted.

"Good man, let's fight." A loud shout came from the south. A man left the crowd, strode to the edge of the stage, jumped up and jumped onto the stage.

Meng Longfu took two steps back and looked at the person in front of him. The man on stage looked no older than him. He was wearing a green arrow robe and looked heroic.

Meng Longfu was good at making friends. He cupped his fists and asked with a smile: "Brother, please give me your name."

Liu Yu recognized the person on the stage and said softly: "It's Zhu Lingshi, a member of the Fujun Army of the Left Guard Army. This man is good at martial arts and is your brother's opponent."

Seeing that Zhu Lingshi was so happy, he didn't want Meng Longfu to worry about signing up. He smiled and said, "Brother Meng, after you and I waste our time, let's talk about friendship by name."

Zhu Lingshi's words were very much in line with Meng Longfu's wishes. Meng Longfu smiled and said, "Please."

The two figures hovered on the stage like a whirlwind, the fists were blowing, and the dust they raised fell on the faces of those watching the battle, numbing and itching.

Meng Huaiyu clenched his fists subconsciously, worried for his brother.

Yang Anxuan stood on the side of the ring, feeling the strong wind stirred up by the fight between the two, and his pride seemed to be gradually awakened in his chest. He wanted to stand up and join the battle group.

After colliding with Meng Long Fu several times, Zhu Lingshi found that he could not fight with him, so he used his exquisite hand-wrapping skills to wrap, pick, frustrate, and lean on Meng Long Fu to fight closely.

Meng Longfu felt that his hands were tied, his opponent was like a loach, his hands were slippery, and his strong blows often landed in the air, or he was relieved of his strength. If he hadn't been so energetic, he would have been out of breath.

As his arm moved forward, Zhu Lingshi turned sideways to avoid it. Meng Longfu retreated a few steps and stood still. Zhu Lingshi did not follow him. He knew that a strong wind and rain would follow.

Sure enough, Meng Longfu exerted his strength and rushed straight towards him like an angry bull. Zhu Lingshi tapped his right toe on the ground, turned his body, and dodged sideways lightly.

Unexpectedly, Meng Longfu had already anticipated this. He stamped his right leg forward hard to stop his forward movement. He reached out his arm to the right and grabbed Zhu Lingshi's front.

Zhu Lingshi raised his left hand and moved outward, and aimed his right hand at Meng Longfu's wrist. According to his previous experience in fighting, Meng Longfu would shrink his wrist and move forward, then hit him with his left hand, and then he could turn his palm and slash his face.

His right hand was placed on Meng Longfu's right hand, but he didn't hide. Zhu Lingshi was delighted, and used his right hand to twist Meng Longfu's right wrist, looking for an opportunity to capture it.

Meng Longfu exhaled and said something. His right wrist was as strong as steel. Zhu Lingshi couldn't twist his wrist even though he used both his left and right hands at the same time.

Zhu Lingshi secretly thought something was wrong and was about to let go and retreat. Meng Longfu's left hand stretched out and grabbed Zhu Lingshi's left hand. The two held each other's hands and stood still.

Meng Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face. He knew that his younger brother was born with supernatural powers, and Zhu Lingshi should not be his opponent.

His hand was so painful that Zhu Lingshi gritted his teeth and refused to let go. Yang Anxuan saw that his face was distorted and pale, and he secretly thought that Zhu Lingshi's hand might be injured if the stalemate continued for a while.

Meng Longfu was not having a good time either. His eyes were wide open and his face was red. Zhu Lingshi's fingers gripping his wrist were like iron pliers clamping on his veins, which was painful.

Yang Anxuan pushed through the crowd and came to the edge of the stage. He jumped up and shouted in the air: "Good skills. If two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. Let Yang help you untie it."

The figure fell beside the two of them, and Yang Anxuan stretched out his hands to pat the four entangled hands.

Both Zhu Lingshi and Meng Longfu felt an influx of heat, and their hands felt as if they were burned by fire, feeling pain and weakness.

Zhu Lingshi took the opportunity to pull back and break away from Meng Longfu's hand.

Seeing that victory was imminent, Meng Longfu was furious and struck Yang Anxuan away with his arms.

Meng Huaiyu saw that Yang Anxuan easily untied the two men and knew that Yang Anxuan was a master. He said in surprise: "Who is this young man? He is so skilled."

Liu Yu stared closely at the erratic Yang Anxuan and responded: "General Fubo, patrolling the Yangtze River is engaged in Yang Anxuan."

"Oh," Meng Huaiyu heard Liu Yu mention Yang Anxuan. Liu Yu spoke highly of Yang Anxuan, whom he met for the first time in Shazhou, but he didn't expect it to be this person.

On the stage, Zhu Lingshi was already hiding aside, watching the fight between Yang Anxuan and Meng Longfu.

Yang Anxuan also used the fighting method, using his fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, waist, etc. to exert force, causing Meng Long Fu to roar continuously.

Taking two steps back, Meng Longfu said angrily: "If you are a man, let's compete with someone for real. You can't be considered a hero just by fighting."

Yang Anxuan was determined to subdue Meng Longfu and said loudly: "Okay, just follow Brother Meng and come again."
