Qiu Xinggong was originally inspecting the training of sergeants at Yizi Camp. Before Li Zexuan arrived at the camp, he had been responsible for the daily training of the Xuanjia Army. Just now, one of his personal guards suddenly came to report that Li Zexuan was going to demonstrate archery skills on the school field. Qiu Xinggong immediately became energetic.

Li Zexuan studied under Master Lingxu and had excellent martial arts skills. This was something that everyone in Chang'an City and even the whole world knew. But at the same time, everyone also knew that the weapon Li Zexuan was good at was a sword, not a bow. You must know that there are many types of bows. The horn bow used by the Xuanjia Army is completely different from the Orion bow among the people. Even if Li Zexuan has used bows and arrows before, it is impossible for him to adapt to and become familiar with the army in a short time. This characteristic horn bow!

Therefore, Li Zexuan's archery demonstration was undoubtedly a fooling around in Qiu Xinggong's opinion. How could he miss such a good show?

"It's not a show, but the general has never used a crossbow before. Now that he has joined the Xuanjia Army, he should learn the art of riding and shooting, so he asked someone to get a crossbow and wanted to try it. Ichiban!"

Li Zexuan was a human being in two lifetimes. Not to mention that he had become a human being, but his emotional intelligence was definitely not bad anymore. Why couldn't he see Qiu Xinggong's little intention to see him make a fool of himself? But after all, he had never touched a crossbow before, and he was not sure how he would perform later, so he didn't say anything big.

He doesn't like to install pens that are uncertain.

"Haha! Li Shenjun is so humble!"

Qiu Xinggong walked up to Li Zexuan and said with a smile: "Who in the entire Chang'an City doesn't know that Li Canjun is a descendant of an immortal and has unparalleled martial arts skills? How could he be stumped by a mere crossbow? Oh~! This is still the case. A three-stone bow? Tsk tsk, Li Canjun really has amazing arm strength!"

But it was this old guy who couldn't help but sigh when he saw the horn bow that one of Duan Zhixuan's personal guards had handed to Li Zexuan.

One stone in the Tang Dynasty is equivalent to about 106 kilograms in modern times. A three-stone bow requires more than 300 kilograms of arm strength to draw. This requirement is not too high for most people. For most modern people, For people who have been in sub-health all year round, this arm strength of more than 300 kilograms is simply out of reach, but for those who practice martial arts, it is not difficult, especially a master-level martial arts master like Li Zexuan!

In addition, soldiers in the Tang Dynasty generally had a "hard condition" to join the army, that is, they must be able to pull at least a stone bow!

"General Qiu has experienced hundreds of battles and has unparalleled archery skills, so why bother teasing a junior general?"

Li Zexuan was too lazy to talk to Qiu Xinggong, a "hermaphrodite" (a person with strange yin and yang temperament would not be called a hermaphrodite). He pulled out an arrow from the quiver on the back of the soldier next to him. On the other side, there was naturally a soldier setting an arrow target. At a place thirty feet away from Li Zexuan.

Thirty feet, more than a hundred meters, a hundred steps away. This distance is not far, but it is definitely not close! The maximum range of ancient crossbows was almost two hundred meters, and the effective range was only more than one hundred meters.

"Hey~! Ugly Cow, look! What is the chief doing?"

On the other side, at the Wuzi Camp training ground, Yuchi Baolin, who had just finished the military formation training and was taking a short break, saw a circle of people surrounding Li Zexuan in the middle of the school field. He quickly pushed Cheng Chumo's arm and pointed to where Li Zexuan was. said in the direction.

"What~?"

Cheng Chumo didn't react at first, but when he looked in the direction of Yuchi Baolin's finger, he was suddenly shocked, "Damn, what is Xiaoxuan doing with a bow and arrow? Are you trying to compete with someone in archery? I've never heard of it before. Can he use a bow?"

"Archery? Does the mountain chief know how to bow and arrow?"

Hearing this, Yuchi Baolin was also confused. It was true that he admired Li Zexuan, but an excellent archer had to go through years of practice. Could it be that Li Zexuan had started practicing archery a long time ago?

"Let's go! Go over and take a look!"

Cheng Chumo waved his hand and greeted.

"But what if the captain wants us to gather for training later?"

Although Yuchi Baolin also wanted to go over and have a look, thinking that this was a military camp and must abide by military regulations, the silly big man suddenly hesitated.

"Are you stupid? Let's just go there for a while, and didn't you see Colonel Sun passing by too? Go, go, go!"

Cheng Chumo patted Yuchi Baolin's arm in disbelief. It happened that at this moment, the captain of their Wuzi camp, Sun Zhiping, was also walking towards Li Zexuan, wearing plate armor. His eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't help but say, He directly dragged Yuchi Baolin and ran over there.

"This is my first time shooting an arrow. I hope General and General Qiu won't laugh at me!"

On the other side, Li Zexuan took a deep breath and said something to Duan Zhixuan and Qiu Xinggong next to him. Then he took two steps back and stood still, bending his bow to nock an arrow. All his energy was concentrated on the arrow. At this moment, there was only The center of the archery target thirty feet away!

In this moment, many sergeants have noticed the movement here. Those who have training missions only dare to peek here secretly. Soldiers like the Wuzi Battalion who happen to be taking a "halftime break" are leaning in. Come here to see how Li Zexuan's archery skills are.

After all, Li Zexuan was already a famous figure in the Tang Empire before entering the Xuanjia Army camp. Now that he was going to show off his archery skills, how could the soldiers not be curious?

Qiu Xinggong secretly laughed in his heart, because judging from Li Zexuan's action of bending the bow and setting an arrow just now, Li Zexuan is definitely a complete novice in archery! It's hard to say whether such a "rookie" can hit the target at such a long distance, let alone the center of the target!

At this moment, Qiu Xinggong really hoped that all the soldiers in the army would come and take a look. In this case, Li Zexuan would definitely become the laughing stock of the soldiers in the future, and he might even lose face and continue to stay in the Xuanjia Army!

Duan Zhixuan's heart sank slightly. Apparently he also saw that Li Zexuan's bow and arrow movements were a bit unfamiliar. At first, he just wanted to see how Li Zexuan's archery skills were, but then Qiu Xinggong came and his nature completely changed. , if Li Zexuan does not perform well, Qiu Xinggong is likely to use the topic to suppress Li Zexuan's reputation in the Xuanjia Army!

But now, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. Duan Zhixuan can't stop it even if he wants to. He can only wait and see what happens!

Li Zexuan, who was in the "center of the storm", did not have Duan Zhixuan's worries at all. At this moment, he only had the target in his eyes and the arrow in his heart, the weight of the arrow and the ejection force of the horn bow. He had just bent the bow and set the arrow He had already sensed it. At this time, he was relying on his strong mental power and knowledge of physics and mathematics to deduce and calculate the trajectory and landing point of the arrow in the sky. In the eyes of others, there was only one in the field at this time. A Li Zexuan with a bow and an arrow, and an archery target in the distance. But in Li Zexuan's "world", there are many invisible parabolic lines between the arrow and the target. Different strengths and shooting angles will correspond to one Different movement trajectories and landing points!

A simple engineering man may easily calculate the trajectory and impact point of an arrow with a known speed and launch angle, but unfortunately this engineering man cannot pull the bow; a highly skilled martial artist can easily pull the bow. He had a three-stone bow, but when he shot an arrow for the first time, he would definitely not be able to hit a target thirty feet away because he lacked experience and could not calculate the landing point of the arrow.

And Li Zexuan happens to be the perfect combination of the two. He is an engineering otaku with strong martial arts skills!

"That's it! This is the intensity and angle!"

Deducing and calculating the trajectory and impact point of an arrow is a relatively complicated process, but for Li Zexuan, who has extremely strong mental power, it only takes a few breaths to complete, and he quickly "... "Trajectory Line", a perfect parabola was found!

With a "whoosh" sound, Li Xian's feather arrow made a sound of breaking through the air and flew rapidly towards the target thirty feet away!

At this moment, everyone's hearts were in their throats. Qiu Xinggong's face was ready to laugh out loud, while Duan Zhixuan's face was solemn, and he was already thinking about how to help Li Zexuan out of the situation!

Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin arrived just in time. They could only look at the arrow that had left the string and pray in their hearts that they would hit the target!

"Bang~!"

The distance of more than thirty feet was only a blink of an eye for the arrow that shot out. Under everyone's gaze, the arrow hit the target hard, making a dull sound.

"Hit! Shot!"

Yuchi Baolin couldn't help but said excitedly.

"It's a pity that I almost hit the bull's-eye!"

The feather arrow hit the fourth ring (most archery targets in the Tang Dynasty only had five rings, which is different from modern times), and it was only a few inches away from the bullseye of the fifth ring. Cheng Chumo said with some regret.

On the other side, the smile that was about to release on Qiu Xinggong's face suddenly froze. Although the arrow did not hit the target, it was close to it! You must know that this is Li Zexuan's first time shooting archery. It is definitely not embarrassing to achieve such a result! You know, among the Xuanjia Army, there are very few people who can hit the target at a distance of thirty feet. At first, he thought that Li Zexuan would definitely miss the target when he shot an arrow for the first time, but now he is like this In the ending, how could you make him laugh?

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay!"

Qiu Xinggong was stunned, but Duan Zhixuan was happy. He was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help stroking his hands and laughing: "Li Canjun's first time shooting an arrow, he was able to hit the target near the target from a distance of thirty feet. Such talent, It’s really rare!”

"What? Is this the first time Li Canjun has shot an arrow?"

The soldiers who were watching the excitement couldn't help but gasped when Duan Zhixuan said that this was Li Zexuan's first time shooting an arrow. Just now, they thought Li Zexuan had done a good job in hitting the fourth ring of the target from such a long distance, but when they heard Duan Zhixuan said this, how good is it? He is simply a monster! Who can shoot an arrow so accurately for the first time?

"Oh! What a mistake! What a mistake! I ignored the wind speed, what a pity!"

The crowd around him screamed in surprise, but our protagonist seemed not to hear the admiration and exclamation outside the field at this time. He was disappointed at first, because according to his deduction and calculation, the arrow should have hit the target perfectly. , but now he only hit the fourth ring, of course he was disappointed! After being disappointed, he looked for a reason. He squatted down, frowned and pondered for a moment. He suddenly understood and couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.

He initially considered the arrow's speed, angle and gravity, but ignored the wind speed! Fortunately, the distance between him and the target is not long, and the speed of the arrow is fast enough. Otherwise, if he missed it by a hair or a thousand miles, his arrow might miss the target directly, which would be a joke. Got it!

"Huh? What?"

Li Zexuan's voice was too soft and Duan Zhixuan couldn't hear it clearly, but he could feel Li Zexuan's regret from his tone.

Li Zexuan stood up and clasped his fists at Duan Zhixuan and said, "When I fired the arrow just now, I ignored the wind speed, so I didn't hit the target. I want to try again. I hope the general will allow it!"

"Huh? Li Shenjun wants to try again?"

Duan Zhixuan was shocked when he heard this, but at the same time he was also a little embarrassed, because who knew whether Li Zexuan's arrow was blinded or whether the next arrow would miss the target directly?

"Huh? Yes! You should shoot more! Archery is a matter of luck!"

Qiu Xinggong's eyes lit up and he quickly echoed.

Obviously, this old guy thinks that Li Zexuan's first arrow hit the target due to luck. If he tries a few more times, he will definitely not be so lucky!

As for Li Zexuan's statement that the first arrow missed the target because he ignored the wind speed, in Qiu Xinggong's opinion, it was just "pretentious talk". Young people don't know the heights of the world and don't give in when things are good. They will have to pay the price!

"This...good! Then Li Canjun will try again!"

Duan Zhixuan's face darkened. After Qiu Xinggong said this, he had to agree even if he didn't agree!

"Thank you, General!"

Li Zexuan clasped his fists, then looked at Qiu Xinggong, an old fool, with a smile. Then, without any nonsense, he squatted down and picked up a handful of grass clippings, then released his palm, and the grass clippings fell in the wind.

"Southeast wind, 3.5 meters per second!"

Soon, Li Zexuan estimated the wind speed at this time, and then he directly pulled out an arrow from the arrow pot carried by the soldier next to him. His powerful mental power began to "act", and countless invisible lines appeared in front of his eyes. This time the lines are different from before, a correction for wind speed compensation has been added!

"It should be almost done!"

Soon, Li Zexuan completed the deduction and calculation, and chose the best shooting angle and speed. The feather arrow shot out again, with a "whoosh" sound and a sonic boom in the air. Everyone held their breath. His eyes were fixed on the arrow that had left the string.

But Li Zexuan retracted his gaze at this time, because when the feather arrow traveled into the air, he was already sure that the arrow would hit the target. Without stopping, he quickly pulled out another feather arrow and shot it again at the same speed and angle as before. Shoot the arrow!

In this way, three arrows are fired in succession!

"Bang bang bang~!"

The movements of Li Zexuan's hands were as fast as lightning, and the speed of the arrows in the air was also as fast as lightning. Soon, three feather arrows hit the target, making three bursts of impact sounds.

"Hit! Three arrows were fired in succession, all hitting the target!"

Duan Zhixuan stared at the target with his tiger eyes. When the third feathered arrow hit the target, he suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost and couldn't help but exclaimed.

I saw three feathered arrows piercing through the center of the target one after another, and the one at the back just penetrated the one in front, which means that all three feathered arrows landed at the same point!

This kind of archery skill is simply amazing!

The scene suddenly fell into deathly silence, but after the silence, there was madness, and everyone was shocked!

"This... these three arrows hit the target in a row?"

"And all three arrows hit the same spot!"

"How can this be?"

"Li Canjun's archery skills are amazing!"

"Li Shenjun is mighty!"

The soldiers around him couldn't help but burst out in exclamations, but Qiu Xinggong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot at this time. His eyes were full of disbelief. He couldn't figure out why Li Zexuan shot an arrow for the first time. , can three arrows hit the target in a row?

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to damage Li Zexuan's reputation in the Xuanjia Army, but in the end he lost everything!
