Chapter 418: Show your true strength, the old man plays tricks on the naughty boy
This *** is none other than the eldest lady of the Yan family in Hebei.
Perhaps it is the sadness of the times, or perhaps this is the law of the times. Almost every era has one or two brother-supporting demons.
Wei Min's wife is like this, and Tong Yuan's wife is also a big helper.
The Yan family was considered a famous family in Jizhou, but in Yan Yun's father's generation, they could not give birth to a son.
In the end, I adopted one from my uncle. Because she was young, Yan Yun was looking after her as both a sister and a mother.
Now the younger brother is already in his thirties and has inherited the position of head of the family, but because of Yan Yun's strength, he behaves very cowardly.
It can be said that the Yan family's housework, large and small, is now directed at the eldest sister Yan Yun, and the head of the family is nothing more than a fertility machine.
However, I don’t know if it’s due to some kind of curse.
The younger generation of the Yan family are actually all women. Although they are all as beautiful as flowers, how can they inherit the position of head of the family without a handle?
Yan Yun was gloomy and had not thought about food and tea for several years. Until this year, I heard that Zhao Feng, the disciple Tong Yuan least expected, had made a big name outside and even won the honor of the God of War. Yan Yun planned
Come to mind.
The second generation is not good, but the third generation are all women, so I can train the fourth generation, right?
Isn't it just to practice the trumpet? I have already practiced it twice, no less than the third time.
Miss Yan, who is over forty years old, is also worried about her mother's family...
At this moment, seeing my niece looking like a nymphomaniac, she was naturally furious.
Compared to his brother Zhao Feng, this Zhao Yun is just a cavalry officer who made a name for himself under the King of Zhenbei. You are blind, you want to leave the flying general God of War and the deputy commander-in-chief of the Longshan Army, just look at your face.
Already?
Yan Yun always speaks straightforwardly, but she didn't know that what she just said directly offended Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun.
Fortunately for Tong Yuan, he was protected from injury by magic.
Zhao Yun was not happy. He had always been proud of his appearance. Among the three thousand white horses, his appearance was always recognized as the best. Even Zhenbei Prince Gongsun Zan felt ashamed.
But now that I have arrived at Master’s wife’s place, I have been given the title of a melon rind, which is unbearable!
"Master, my disciple wants to go to the martial arts arena first and wait." Zhao Yun stood up and said with his fists clasped.
Tong Yuan looked at his most proud disciple and wondered what he was thinking.
He turned back and glared at Yan Yun, patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, and said: "Go ahead, remember as a teacher, this martial arts competition will be the best opportunity for you to become famous as a great man. Don't be careless and neglectful."
Zhao Yun glanced at his master Yan Yun sideways, and said solemnly, clasping his fists: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."
Tong Yuan nodded happily, "Okay, let's go."
Zhao Yun said "Hmm" and saluted Yan Yun with his fists raised. He nodded with his elder brother and turned around to leave.
As for the girl from the Yan family who has been secretly looking at him, he did not hesitate to look at her. I, Changshan Zhao Zilong, also have a backbone.
Bang~
Shortly after Zhao Yun left, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren on the field also decided the winner.
Both brothers used the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear taught by Tong Yuan and fought for more than a hundred rounds before reaching a verdict.
After all, Zhang Ren was not as good as others, so senior brother Zhang Xiu found an opportunity and shot him to the ground.
Seeing this, the referee stepped forward to stop the two of them, and said loudly: "Three landings, the competition is over, the winner: Liangzhou Zhang Xiu."
It’s not that Zhang Ren is not strong, it’s just that Zhang Xiu’s understanding of Bainiaochaofengqian is better. Knowing himself and his enemy, Zhang Ren is naturally full of flaws. The longer he fights, the more flaws he will have. If it weren’t for the brotherhood, Zhang Ren would be full of flaws.
Xiu has already won.
This is also the main reason why Zhao Yun left without watching the game. He is also proficient in the Hundred Birds Shooting Phoenix Spear, so he naturally saw the results.
At the same time, Zhao Yun felt a little anxious in his heart.
Senior brother and eldest brother are equally proficient in the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear as I am. If I want to defeat them, I must make some changes...
Zhao Yun paused in his steps, and flashed through his mind some of the marksmanship he had used when killing enemies in Wuhuan.
···
As night falls, the lanterns begin to light up.
On the first day, there were a total of 900 contestants, and half of them were eliminated, that is, 450 contestants.
The remaining winners each got a rest room and gathered together around the Nine Palaces martial arts arena.
Among them, the largest force is undoubtedly Xu Huang, Zhao Feng and others led by the Longshan Army.
There were more than 40 members of the Longshan Army competing this time. Seven were eliminated on the first day, and the rest all advanced.
Among the seven eliminated, some were unfortunate enough to encounter masters, and some were inferior in skills. But if they lost, they lost and were transferred directly to the logistics.
Responsible for serving tea and water to the brothers who were promoted today, it can be regarded as a small bet for a few people in the army, and it is harmless.
At the main seat, Commander-in-Chief Xu Huang took the tea cup handed by a team member and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, according to the tournament arrangements, we will play two games in a row tomorrow, one in the morning. If you win, you will directly advance to the afternoon game, so you must
Don't underestimate the enemy; whenever you have the chance, you must win with one strike."
The man serving tea and water was the one who lost a game and was eliminated today. Hearing this, he said loudly: "I just went to see the contestants in several other districts and found that many of them have suffered losses. In other words, these
Everyone will definitely be eliminated tomorrow, brothers, don’t be like them and lose because of carelessness.”
Xu Huang nodded slightly and agreed: "Yes, if your skills are not as good as others, that's fine, but if you lose because of carelessness, humph, don't blame Xu for practicing too hard when you look back."
When all the soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but shudder, and even Zhao Feng also hid back with a guilty conscience.
Unexpectedly, Xu Huang stopped him directly and said in a deep voice: "Zihu, I heard that there are many people from your sect participating in the competition this time. I also heard that today, in order to take into account the friendship between the same sect, your senior brother decided to join the competition with you.
Senior brother, did you fight for more than a hundred rounds?"
Zhao Feng smiled bitterly, took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "General soldier, don't worry, if I encounter them, I will go all out."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu Huang looked at him and frowned: "It is right to go all out, but as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Longshan Army, you are still being beaten by Wei Jun
Given the honor of being the God of War, it would be unjustifiable if we cannot crush him and win."
Zhao Feng was stunned for a moment and whispered: "But, after all, we are from the same sect..."
Bang!
Xu Huang slapped the teacup in his hand directly on the table, frightening everyone present into silence.
"If you have such thoughts again, just admit defeat tomorrow. Don't forget that what you represent now is no longer your personal honor and disgrace. Don't be like Lu Fengxian. For the sake of so-called fairness, he didn't even use weapons. That's not humility.
, is stupid!"
The news that Lu Bu gave up using the Fang Tian Painted Halberd and defeated his opponent with his bare hands had already spread throughout the world during the lunch break.
Many people said that Lu Bu did this act of heroism and did not hesitate to bully the weak.
But some people say that he is just toying with his opponent. He can obviously defeat the enemy with one blow, but he has to chase them all over the field.
Xu Huang belongs to the third type of person. He believes that with Lu Bu's character, he will suffer big losses on the battlefield sooner or later.
Therefore, after learning that Lu Bu did not use weapons, Zhang Xiu took into account the friendship between his fellow students and repeatedly gave in, and waited for some more bizarre game situations.
Xu Huang immediately called everyone over to prevent them from learning these mentally retarded behaviors.
Xu Huang was very lucky at this time, fortunately he did not need to do anything.
Otherwise, looking at Zhao Feng's behavior, if he were to meet his fellow disciples tomorrow, he would definitely be in trouble.
Only Xu Huang, who has been on the battlefield together, knows best how strong Zhao Feng really is. He is an unreasonable man.
The flying general only had the wrong name, not the wrong nickname!
"No matter what, you must show your true strength tomorrow."
Xu Huang said seriously.
···
The next day.
The second knockout round will be held as scheduled.
This time it is no longer decided by drawing lots, but by
A more ornamental way to determine the order of entry.
Early in the morning, the outside of Jiugong Martial Arts Arena was crowded with people waiting to enter.
A ticket only costs a penny, and almost everyone in Luoyang who can spare some time will be there.
One venue can accommodate 15,000 people, and nine venues can accommodate a total of 135,000 people, which is almost two-fifths of Luoyang's permanent population.
At this time, everyone was not in a hurry to enter the venue, but looked eagerly in the direction of Mang Mountain.
Directly north of the Jiugong venue, a wooden tower more than thirty meters high was built overnight.
At the top of the tower, there is a wooden shelf with gongs hanging on it in the form of nine palaces.
Xu Ding stood on the balcony of the tower and shouted through the loudspeaker: "The person who hits the gong will enter the venue according to the nine palace positions. If he misses the target, he will be eliminated on the spot. The first two people to enter the arena will start the competition directly. The loser will be eliminated.
The rules are that simple."
Directly in front of the tower, there are nine squares. Standing inside are the 450 players who advanced yesterday.
There are fifty people in each square.
As soon as Xu Ding finished speaking, some people who were not good at archery frowned. Unexpectedly, there was a fist and kick kung fu and an archery competition.
However, some people who are good at archery are already eager to try it. There are various bows and arrows to choose from, including wooden bows, iron-tied bows, ox-horn bows, and even crossbows. Different models of various types of bows are also prepared.
Long bows, short bows, curved bows, piano bows, you name it.
"Now, starting from the middle palace players, come forward one by one according to the order of promotion in yesterday's competition."
Xu Ding looked at Lu Bu, who stood like an iron tower in the crowd. As the first person to advance to the palace martial arts arena yesterday, Lu Bu's archery skills could also stand the test.
I saw him step forward and choose the heaviest iron-tied bow. After testing the tension, he took an arrow with satisfaction.
"Since Lu is a middle palace player, let's enter the middle palace today."
He raised his head, raised his chest, bent his bow and set an arrow, all in one movement.
Phew~
when!
On top of the tower, Xu Ding smiled with satisfaction and said loudly: "Catch."
Next comes the boring archery session.
After all, those who can advance are all famous warriors of the Han Dynasty. In this war era that emphasizes the integration of bow and horse, you may not know boxing and kicking, but you must know how to ride a horse and archery.
After all 450 people took a turn, a few people who were seriously injured yesterday were eliminated, and some people who were really incompetent in archery left.
In the end, only 412 people were able to advance to the second round.
Among them, the middle palace has the largest number of people.
There is no way, everyone is trying to be safe. The nine-sided gongs are just not far away. If you are lucky and miss the middle gong, you can still hit the other gongs on the four sides. Not to mention, there are a few gongs on the four sides.
I just have good luck, otherwise I would miss the target.
Gen Palace martial arts arena.
As the first warrior to enter, Huang Zhong waited for half an hour before he saw a figure coming from the entrance.
The anxious spectators who were waiting on the field stood up one after another to see who was coming.
"Hey, isn't that the young man who won by trickery yesterday?"
"What's your name? Ma Chao."
Many people on the field who had watched the Ma Chao match yesterday recognized him and began to introduce him to the people next to him.
In their opinion, Ma Chao won yesterday according to the rules of the competition. If he hadn't just rolled into the arms of his opponent, he would have lost long ago.
Entering the ring, Ma Chao was stunned and found that his opponent turned out to be a gray-haired old man holding a short bow in his hand and four arrows held between his fingers in the other hand.
Ma Chao came on stage with an epee in his hand and kindly reminded him: "Hey, old man, you'd better change to a weapon that's handy. Even if you're good at archery, you should know that you're faster if you're seven steps away.
I can cut your short bow with one sword."
Huang Zhong smiled and looked at the referee calmly.
The referee wanted to introduce Huang Zhong to Ma Chao.
Seeing this, he didn't bother to talk nonsense and directly announced the start of the competition.
Ma Chao raised his eyebrows and muttered: "In that case, don't blame me for not being able to win with force."
At this time, the two were about fifty steps apart. Ma Chao tightened his legs and rushed forward with his heavy sword in hand.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As long as you get within seven steps of the opponent, the advantage of the bow and arrow will be gone!
Ma Chao thought so, and even many people watching the game thought so too.
Huang Zhong looked at Ma Chao running towards him with a calm expression, and aimed an arrow at Ma Chao's feet.
When Ma Chao saw the flying arrow, he turned sharply, dodged to the side, and then continued to rush forward.
Huang Zhong's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ma Chao with a hint of admiration, but he kept moving his hands, bending the bow and setting an arrow again.
Boom!
Ma Chao paused again, this time a little frightened, because the arrow flew past his head.
If he hadn't ducked down to avoid it, he might have been pierced with blood just now.
At this time, the two of them were only twenty steps apart, and Ma Chao's pace quickened a bit.
call out!
Another arrow struck Ma Chao's ear, leaving a hot blood trail.
Ma Chao was overjoyed when he saw this, and shouted while running: "You have the last arrow left. I said, within seven steps I...ah!"
Ma Chao had already run into the range where the heavy sword could attack Huang Zhong. He raised the heavy sword and struck at Huang Zhong's short bow.
Ma Chao, who was in the air, saw that the heavy sword was about to strike down, but the old man did not dodge, but broke the head of the last arrow...
Then, with lightning speed, he quickly bent his bow and set an arrow.
Clang.
"Ah, my hands!"
The heavy sword in Ma Chao's hand fell to the ground with a sound, and the man also fell from the air, holding his palm tightly and wailing in pain.
Huang Zhong looked at Ma Chao who ran up to him in just three breaths and said with a smile: "Young man, you are very good."
Ma Chao first checked the injury on his palm and found that the arrow had only pierced a little flesh. The reason why he had to abandon his sword was because the bone was dislocated by the force of the arrow, so it was nothing serious.
Ma Chao pulled out the arrow and looked at the bamboo arrow without an arrow. His heart was filled with despair.
If the opponent hadn't broken off the arrow in the end, then this arrow would have directly destroyed his hand.
Ma Chao looked up at Huang Zhong and found that he had already walked off the ring with his hands behind his back.
"Xiliang Ma Chao, thank you for your mercy, senior." Ma Chao gratefully bowed his fist to Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong paused, scratched his head, and said leisurely: "You have good speed. Go back to Dingjunfang to find me. That boy Zihu should be very interested in you. He might be able to accept you as his disciple and teach you his weird rice-planting skills."
marksmanship."
Ma Chao:Planting rice seedlings?
Qiangong martial arts arena.
Ji Ling, Yuan Shu's number one general, was shivering in the midst of a spear array composed of more than a dozen spears.
"Flying General, Flying General...it turns out that this is the true strength of a God of War warrior!"
