Hearing this, Young Master Zhuo raised his bow and said, "Okay! Then let me show you how good I am at archery."
At this moment, drums sounded from the high platform, indicating that the two sides could start the duel.
Mu Sheng patted Feng Wei on the shoulder. He pulled the reins and the chariot turned back to the starting point, ready to charge. The trombone sounded from the high platform, and Feng Wei shouted "drive" and the chariot sped out quickly.
At this time, Xia Chuan, who is on the right side of the chariot as the long-armed hand, has been watching Gongzi Zhuo's chariot getting closer and closer, holding the wooden spear in his hand nervously. He has seen the strength of the long-armed hand on Gongzi Zhuo's chariot, and knows that he may not be his opponent. Go on the defensive, hoping to catch the blow.
In an instant, the chariots of both sides passed each other, and there was only a muffled sound. Xia Chuan was knocked out of the wooden spear in his hand and hit in the chest. Xia Chuan sat down directly in the chariot, and there were cheers from the stands again.
Mu Sheng helped Xia Chuan up and asked, "How are you? Are you okay?"
Xia Chuan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can still fight."
Mu Sheng glanced at the opponent's team and thought to himself, it seems that he still can't go head-to-head, so he simply relied on his own archery skills to win. He patted Feng Wei on the shoulder. Feng Wei understood it and quickly pulled the reins and turned the car around. He clashed head-on with Gongzi Zhuo's chariot.
Mu Sheng looked at the chasing chariot from behind, with his bow and arrows drawn, his eyes like an eagle, and he only heard "Whoosh!" call out! call out! Three consecutive arrows hit the driver of the opponent's chariot, causing him to fall backwards and almost let go of the reins, causing Gongzi Zhuo's chariot to almost lose control. It can be seen that although the arrows did not have arrowheads, they were surprisingly powerful. .
The bow and arrow in Mu Sheng's hand was a ten-stone infantry bow, which required an astonishing amount of arm strength to draw. Mu Sheng did not care about hiding his clumsiness. After his own chariot pulled away, his opponent who fired with a strong bow did not dare to pursue with all his strength. Everyone on the high platform also cheered for Gongzi Sheng's chariot.
A sinister look flashed in Young Master Zhuo's eyes, and he fired several arrows in an attempt to suppress Mu Sheng's long-range firepower. However, the bow in his hand only had six stones. Although he could barely reach the range, the power was far behind. After a few arrows, he It didn't have any impact on Mu Sheng's crew, and a few arrows were actually shot down by the opponent's long-range hand. It was obvious that the opponent was well aware of his advantage.
Mu Sheng fired more than ten arrows in one breath. Even with his body as a monk, it was really hard for him to fire such a hard bow, so he had to retract the arrows and wait to hit them from a distance.
When Master Zhuo saw Mu Sheng put away his arrow, he knew that he was taking a breath.
Young Master Zhuo shouted, "Hurry, hurry up and catch up with them. Our advantage lies in close combat. We must get close to them before we have a chance to win. Hurry!"
Hearing this, the driver nodded repeatedly, waved the reins, shouted loudly, and chased Mu Sheng's chariot.
Young Master Zhuo could clearly feel that the opponent was shooting a hard bow of more than eight stones. He never expected that this fourteenth brother was not only first-class in shooting skills, but also had such amazing strength? How can you actually shoot such a hard bow?
After a while, the horn sounded from the high platform, reminding the two sides that they had fought for five rounds, and there were still five rounds left to decide the winner.
Mu Sheng slowed down and took a deep breath. He drew his bow and aimed an arrow at Gongzi Zhuo. He only heard a whoosh sound and Gongzi Zhuo was hit in the head by the arrow. Although it was through his helmet, the powerful force hit him and caused him to fall backwards. , the commander on the right side of the car was shocked when he saw this, and quickly pulled up his young master.
Young Master Zhuo was so shocked that he sat down in the car. It took him a while to slowly wake up from his dazed state. He looked around the arena and saw the voices cheering and shouting for Lord Changping, feeling resentful in his heart.
Mu Sheng still refreshed his own record with long-distance arrows one after another.
Gongzi Zhuo saw more and more red spots on his crew members, and Mu Sheng's bow was heavy and powerful. The chariot operations were seriously disrupted and he could not catch up with them. His own close combat ability could not be used. He knew that in this way, They fly kites and beat them, and their side will definitely lose.
Young Master Zhuo couldn't help but get up to his tricks and shouted towards Mu Sheng's chariot, "Chang Pingjun, if you are a good man, you can fight with us in close combat, so as not to lose your true qualities as a man."
Mu Sheng laughed and said, "It's a joke, why should I use my own shortcomings to attack the other's strengths? Isn't it stupid?"
After saying that, the only response to Master Zhuo was another powerful and heavy arrow from Mu Sheng. Chang Ge blocked it with his shield due to his quick hands and eyes. In an instant, there was another arrow, and this arrow hit the driver of Master Zhuo's chariot. The driver's mask was directly shattered by the front door. The driver fell over and fell unconscious on the spot. If the arrow was a real arrow, it would have been pierced through the head on the spot.
At this time, Young Master Zhuo lost control of his chariot instantly. Two horses pulled the chariot and rushed straight to the outside. Everyone on the high platform saw it and screamed in surprise. Young Master Zhuo quickly pulled the reins and managed to control the chariot. Everything in this game was Everyone can see that Young Master Zhuo will definitely be defeated.
Prince Zhuo handed over the chariot to Chang Ge's hand, and drew his bow and arrows to shoot at Mu Sheng. He only heard a whooshing sound, and an arrow hit Mu Sheng's left arm, interrupting his action of opening the bow and unloading the arrow.
Mu Sheng secretly thought that although he was not as good at shooting as himself, his level was still first-rate. Mu Sheng simply took out two arrows from behind, put them on the bowstring and aimed at his opponent. With a whoosh, two dragons came to attack, and only one arrow was seen. The bow and arrow fell out of Gongzi Zhuo's hand, and the second arrow hit Gongzi Zhuo's chest with such force that he fell down in the car again.
At this time, the drums and trumpets sounded on the high platform, and the competition was over. Mu Sheng saw that he had already won the championship. The high platform was filled with cheers for Lord Changping. This sound made Master Zhuo achieve good results in both chariot competitions. The people were furious. Thinking of their previous heroic words, but this time they were only in the top eight, Young Master Zhuo felt that he had completely lost his face.
At this moment, Mu Sheng's chariot was about to turn around and stop for the referee to record the results. Young Master Zhuo stared at the opponent's chariot with sinister eyes. He suddenly snatched the spear from the long hand and threw it with all his strength. The wooden spear directly hit the opponent's chariot. It was inserted into the wheel hub of Mu Sheng's chariot, causing the chariot that was traveling at high speed to flip over. The chariot rolled directly to the ground. Mu Sheng and other crew members were thrown away directly, and all three of them were thrown to pieces. Extremely embarrassed.
Mu Sheng and others did not expect that Young Master Zhuo would be so cruel and he could not afford to lose, so he directly and openly attacked them. Everyone in the stands was stunned by this scene, and a needle could be heard in the stadium.
Mu Sheng himself was dizzy after being thrown. He slowly stood up and shook his head, feeling for a while, secretly thinking that he was lucky. He was just stunned by the fall and had some scratches on his hands, but nothing else was serious.
He turned to look at the other two people and walked forward to check their injuries. The guard captain Xia Chuan's left arm was hanging down. Mu Sheng knew that he had broken his arm as soon as he saw it. A surge of anger arose spontaneously. He stepped forward to help Xia Chuan up. Asking “How are you?”
Xia Chuan waved his hand, forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty, I'm fine. The minor injury is nothing serious."
Mu Sheng looked at the new driver Feng Wei again, and saw that he had also been thrown badly. He sat on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. Mu Sheng quickly stepped forward and said, "Feng Wei, what's wrong with you?"
Feng Wei pointed to his left leg. Mu Sheng stepped forward and touched it, and found that his leg was broken. At this time, Mu Sheng was so angry that his chariot competition was over, and all the crew members were useless. , Mu Sheng's fists tightened again and again.
Seeing this, Feng Wei quickly grabbed him and said, "Young Master must not act out of anger. He is your brother after all."
Mu Sheng's face turned livid and he whispered, "Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."
At this time, Young Master Zhuo was standing on the carriage, pointing at Mu Sheng and the others, laughing and laughing, getting carried away. At this moment, only a whooshing sound was heard, Young Master Zhuo fell off the carriage and screamed, and saw an arrow stuck in his mouth. , Master Zhuo's retainers were shocked when they saw this, and quickly helped him up. Master Zhuo took out the arrow feathers from his mouth with a twisted expression, and saw that it was the arrow used in the competition. If it was a real arrow, he would be dead in the morning.
Young Master Zhuo had a mouthful of cinnabar in his mouth, which also made him feel sick. He lowered his head and vomited for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice, "Water, give me water quickly."
Although there was no arrowhead, the arrow was very powerful. Listening to its hoarse sound, it was obvious that Gongzi Zhuo's throat was also injured.
After hearing the words, the attendant quickly fetched the water bag. Young Master Zhuo drank a few mouthfuls, rinsed his mouth and spit it on the ground before he regained his composure. He looked up and saw that it was Mu Sheng who was shooting his bow in the distance.
Young Master Zhuo angrily yelled at his followers, "Go quickly and teach this fool a lesson. Why are you standing there in a daze? Go quickly!"
All the attendants looked at each other and did not dare to step forward. After all, the other party was also a grandson of a phoenix, and he was a prince conferred by the emperor. Even if they were ten times more courageous, they would not dare to take action.
Young Master Zhuo turned to Chang Geshou again and shouted, "Meng Qing, don't you usually claim that you are brave enough to be worthy of all men? Take this fool down for me."
While Meng Qing was hesitating, Prince Dian, who was watching the game from the stands, personally came off the field and rode his horse to stop further conflicts between the two sides.
When Young Master Zhuo saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arriving, he was acting arrogantly and knowing what was good for him, so he quickly kept silent.
The prince and his entourage first came to Mu Sheng and said pleasantly, "Brother Sheng, how are you? Are you okay?"
When Mu Sheng saw the prince coming, he bowed respectfully and said, "Your Highness, my brother is fine. It's just that all my subordinates were seriously injured. I really didn't expect that Mu Zhuo, a bastard, dared to blatantly treat me like this." I'm going to find my father for comment right now."
The prince stepped forward, held Mu Sheng's shoulders and comforted him, "Brother Sheng, please be patient. This is a conflict between our brothers, and the civil and military officials of the entire court are watching. If it gets too big, it won't be good for anyone."
The prince turned his head and his face changed and said sternly: "Mu Zhuo, come here. You usually rely on Mrs. Li's favor to be lawless. I didn't expect that you dare to do stupid things to kill your brothers in broad daylight. You, the elder brother, don't even show any humility." Don’t you have a heart? Do you know your sin?”
When Prince Zhuo heard this, he felt even more resentful and aggrieved, but he also knew that he was in the wrong, and since the prince was now supervising the affairs of the country, he could not afford to offend him, so he had no choice but to give in and reluctantly said, "I know that I am guilty, so I will let His Highness the prince do what he wants. "
The prince said, "Let's do this. You can report to Zongzheng Mansion yourself and be punished by doing corvee service for a month."
When Prince Zhuo heard this, his face was full of displeasure, and he was so frightened by the prince's majesty that he had no choice but to accept the order and leave.
The prince turned to Mu Sheng and said, "Brother Sheng, you see, you are not really hurt. After all, he is your brother. Is it appropriate to deal with it this way? If you go to the father's side, the king's power is unpredictable and the consequences are unpredictable. .”
Mu Sheng also knew the importance of the matter, so he could only say, "Your Highness, you handled it very appropriately. I am sincerely convinced."
