At the same time, the martial arts field of the palace on the other side had also set up the arrow target, and Zhang Rang specially found a general surnamed Dou to sparring him, saying that he was afraid that Lu Bu would be bored alone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The drunkard's intention is not to drink, the sparring is fake, and it is true that he wants to make Lu Bu ugly.

Before the competition, Zhang Rangchao told the general 'extremely kindly': "Dou Wei, Your Majesty and so many ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are watching, you can't break the royal face." ”

"Please rest assured that Gong Zhang will not be dishonored in the end." The armor-clad general, who had extraordinary archery skills, responded with a clenched fist with great confidence.

Then, Lu Bu and Dou Wei faced the Son of Heaven and stood side by side, with the courtiers on the right side, and soon the palace guards placed their bows and feathered arrows in the designated positions.

"Two generals, these are two stone carved bows and thirty white feather arrows." Zhang Rang made a brief introduction to the two of them, and after a pause, he said: "The rules of the competition are very simple, the one who hits the most arrow targets wins, can you understand the two?" ”

The two nodded, and Lu Bu looked at the position of the arrow target in front of him, which should be a distance of a hundred paces, and under the bright lights hanging, the entire arrow target was exactly the size of a small disc, and the red bullseye was even more invisible.

The average archer in the barracks used an eight-bucket bow, while the wolf cavalry camp used a powerful one-stone hardwood bow. 100 paces is a very interesting distance, for example, in the Wolf Cavalry Camp, most soldiers can only hit the target at about 80 paces, not hit the bull's-eye. Being able to accurately hit the bull's-eye at a distance of 100 paces can be called a marksman, and at the same time, people also praise them with a nice word, called '100 steps through Yang'.

"Your Majesty, the minister requests that the target be moved to one hundred and twenty paces." Dou Wei bowed to the emperor.

There was an uproar on the military attaché's side, unlike the Wenchen who was purely watching the excitement, they all knew some martial arts to a greater or lesser extent, and some were even proficient in the doorway. Archery is not as good as melee combat, when the distance between the two is more than 100 steps, every step back, the difficulty will increase a lot, not to mention that it will move back as many as 20 steps at once.

The surprised reactions of the military attachés, Dou Wei was all in sight, and when he was proud in his heart, his face couldn't help revealing a little disdain, he looked at Lu Bu, who was about ten years younger than himself, and sneered in his heart: Boy, don't think that you can go sideways everywhere with a loss of archery, and if you want to get an axe in front of me, you are still a little tender.

At a distance of one hundred and twenty steps, Dou Wei was confident that he would be able to hit the bull's-eye with all of them, and even if he moved back ten steps, he could still shoot all the arrow feathers into the target battlement.

Liu Hong's eyes flashed with excitement, he had also learned to ride a bow and shoot when he was a teenager, so he knew very well what the distance of one hundred and twenty steps meant.

"Lu Qing, what do you think?" Liu Hong opened his mouth to ask Lu Bu and wanted to hear his opinion.

Dou Wei's words just now clearly wanted to give Lu Bu a dismount and embarrass him, how could Lu Bu not know.

In this case, it's a big deal that you do the first year of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth.

Lu Bu thought so in his heart, and replied in his mouth: "Back to Your Majesty, there is no difference between the ministers. However, since General Dou is interested in this, and Chen Jiuju Biansai also knows a little about the bow and crossbow, and the effective shooting distance of the two stone bows is one hundred and fifty steps, so it is better to move the arrow target to one hundred and fifty steps and then compete. ”

One hundred and fifty steps!

The military attache's side was completely boiling, if Dou Wei's one hundred and twenty steps were conceited, then the one hundred and fifty steps that Lu Bu said was simply complete arrogance.

Shooting a target with a bow and arrow at a distance of one hundred and fifty paces is almost beyond the scope of what a human being should be.

originally wanted to make Lu Bu retreat in a difficult way, but who would have thought that he would be countered to the army. One hundred and thirty steps was already Dou Wei's limit, and he was not too sure of one hundred and fourteen, let alone a distance of one hundred and fifty steps.

Facing Emperor Liu Hong's expectant gaze, Dou Wei, who lifted a stone and hit his own foot, had to bite the bullet and respond with a fist: "The minister is willing to give it a try."

"Good!"

Liu Hong happily slapped a slap, one hundred and fifty steps with a bare hand bow, he had never seen it so far, and even his tone became a little impatient: "Two Qing family, then let's start quickly, I'll wait and see!" ”

Lu and Dou bowed down to answer the order, took two steps back, turned around and went to their respective positions.

During this period, Dou Wei whispered to Lu Bu and scolded him: "Boy, be careful that the cowhide blows through the sky, and I'll see how you end up when the time comes."

Lu Bu laughed when he heard this, as if he didn't take it to heart, and made a polite gesture, "General Dou, please." ”

After receiving the order of the Son of Heaven, although the guards did not understand what the two generals were pumping, they still honestly moved the two arrow targets back by a distance of fifty paces.

There used to be a target stack the size of a disc, but now it is as small as a copper coin. Many old ministers, even after rubbing their cloudy eyes several times, still couldn't see the location of the target.

Dou Wei walked to his position, two feet away from Lu Bu, he glanced at the distance of the arrow target, and sighed in his heart for no reason, it was really out of reach.

I don't know how many of the thirty arrows can hit, if none of them hit......

Dou Wei hurriedly shook his head a few times, not daring to think about it anymore. At this time, he glanced at Lu Bu, who was not far away.

Lu Bu didn't seem to notice Dou Wei's gaze, picked up the Huadiao bow with his left hand, checked it in his hand, and didn't rush to load the arrow feathers, but stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand and buckled them on the string, ready to try the elasticity of the bow first. It's just that Lu Bu just pulled it open a little, and then he loosened it again, frowning slightly. The bow skills of the wolf riding camp were taught by him, and he knew the strength of the bow as soon as he tried it, but this bow was clearly not the strength of the two-stone bow.

Seeing this, Dou Wei was already overjoyed in his heart, and said with a smile: "Boy, you are a three-stone bow, don't think about pulling it away without two hundred catties of arm strength." Even if you're really lucky, thirty feather arrows, I'm afraid that before you use half of them, your entire arm will be useless! ”

Martial arts practitioners know that archery is extremely depleting to the arm, and if you are not careful, it can easily lead to muscle strain, or even the arm is scrapped, so most people are reluctant to study archery in depth.

No longer caring about Lu Bu, Dou Wei held the hard bow in front of him, twisted a feather arrow from the quiver, put it on the bowstring, and began to drag his right hand back slowly, when the bow was stretched to a large arc, Dou Wei squinted his left eye, aimed at the position of the arrow target, and his mood fluctuated slightly.

He wasn't sure he would be able to hit the target, let alone the bull's-eye, but everyone watched with bated breath. Therefore, he must not make any mistakes.

After the whole body was stagnant for three breaths, Dou Wei unconsciously swallowed his saliva, and with a finger, with a 'whoosh', the arrow feathers that had long been ready to shoot out.

Click!

This slightly dull sound sounded like heaven to Dou Wei's ears at this moment.

Whether or not you hit the bull's-eye is put aside for a moment, just shooting the target in one hundred and fifty steps is already a very big deal.

In this regard, Liu Hong slapped his leg and praised it regardless of his image, and laughed: "Dou Qing, you did a good job!" ”

To be able to get the praise of the Son of Heaven, it must be a spring breeze on his face to be someone else, but Dou Wei's heart was not too happy, but there was a hint of cringe. Only he knew that the arrow just now was able to hit the target, it was all based on luck and feeling, and it was by no means as easy as it was to come easily.

Dou Wei picked up another one from the quiver, put it on the string, and opened a large arc again as just now, and after relieving the atmosphere twice, there was another 'whoosh'.

However, after the faint sound of the arrow feathers breaking through the air, there was no other sound.

Obviously, his arrow missed.

Damn it!

Dou Wei couldn't help but curse in his heart, and once again put the arrow feather on the bowstring.

Fine beads of sweat gradually oozed from his palms, Dou Wei gathered his mind and took a deep breath, he told himself that he must be calm, calm, just like the first time just now.

Maybe it was Dou Wei's insincerity, or maybe God deliberately wanted to joke with him, after the first hit, Dou Wei's five or six arrows in a row all missed the target, which made him almost crazy.

Zhang Rang saw Dou Wei's frequent mistakes, and while secretly scolding the waste in his heart, he was also ready to lead this disaster to Lu Bu, "General Lu, why don't you pull the bow, it shouldn't be that you can't pull the bow, then it's a big joke......"

Zhang Rang not only said bitterly and meanly, but also made it clear in his heart. Lu Bu's bow was replaced by him when he was preparing, in order to make Lu Bu embarrassed and let him know what kind of fate would happen to those who dared to go against the Ten Standing Servants.

In the face of Zhang Rang's ridicule, Lu Bu didn't say a word, and after activating the joints at the shoulders twice, he once again erected the hard carved bow in his hand in front of him, and the two fingers of his right hand clamped the white feather behind the arrow shaft, and gently put it on the string, slowly pulling this three-stone super tough bow away.

When the bowstring was bent to seven or eight points full, without any hesitation, Lu Bu directly let go of his fingers, snapped the string, whoosh~

I saw that the tip of the arrow was shining coldly, and in this night, a cold trajectory like lightning broke through the sky, and the so-called 'bow opened like the autumn moon in the sky, and the arrow went like a meteor landing' is probably so.

Click!

It was a very shocking echo, a little duller than Dou Wei's voice just now.

This powerful voice made Dou Wei's whole person stunned, and he reluctantly refuted loudly in his heart: How is this possible! Luck, it must be luck!

He grabbed the feather, put it on the bowstring, and shot it again.

There was no repercussion......

Damn, give it to me, give it to me!!

Dou Wei shot three arrows in a row, and roared angrily in his heart, why can Lu Bu shoot, but I can't!

Click~Click~Click......

A string of machine-gun-like sounds came into Dou Wei's ears, he twisted his neck very slowly, and looked at the young man who was not far away with a shocked face, only to see that he kept pulling out the arrow feathers from the quiver, and wound the arrow, without any hesitation or hesitation, he let go of his fingers, and then took out the arrow feathers like a ghost, put them on the bowstring, and didn't even look at them.

How is this possible!

The sound of 'da-da-da' still sounded in the ears without interruption, and there was only one voice left in the entire martial arts field, not only Liu Hong and a group of courtiers, but even the palace maids were already dumbfounded.

Most of the feather arrows in the quiver have gone, and the matter of Lu Bula's arm has not appeared, he is still constantly pulling the bow, loosening, pulling the bow again, releasing it, repeating it again and again.

His face was calm, there was no joy or sorrow, and such a breathtaking archery skill seemed to him as if it were a trivial matter.

There is no need for statistical reporting of the ending, and it is clear who wins and who loses.

Dou Wei lost badly, and from beginning to end, he only had the first arrow feather hit.

However, he was really unwilling, unwilling to lose to Lu Bu, who was much younger than him.

"If you can't win, kill him."

What Zhang Rang had said to Dou Wei at the beginning sounded in Dou Wei's ears again at this moment, like a demon with a bloody mouth wide open.

That's right, as long as you kill him, I am the one who wins, and Zhang Gong will definitely have a way to save me!

At this moment of despair, Dou Wei lost his mind, he seemed to grasp the straw that saved his life, anger rose from his chest, and evil grew to the side of his guts.

Dou Wei glanced at Lu Bu, who was focusing on the target, the distance between the two was only two zhang, not to mention a good archery like him, even an ordinary archer, at such a close distance, it was enough to successfully shoot Lu Bu.

Quietly touching an arrow from the quiver, Dou Wei's mood at the moment was excited and excited, thinking that he was about to destroy a divine shooting genius with his own hands, the pleasure that rushed straight to his heart was indescribable.

When Lu Bu picked up the last arrow feather in the quiver, Dou Wei knew that this was his last chance to turn the tables.

The arrow feather was on the string, this time Dou Wei completely pulled the hard bow of the two stones to a great consummation, aiming at the arrow target, at the moment of the final launch, Dou Wei's body turned abruptly, facing Lu Bu, the arrow was aimed at the young man's head, revealing a hideous smile, and his heart was even more twisted and rampant: You damn guy, give me death!

The arrow swooped through the bowstring that had expanded to the extreme, like a mad cheetah, and instantly pounced on Lu Bu's head.

Dou Wei's hand came too suddenly, Liu Hong and the courtiers were only immersed in Lu Bu's divine shot, and they didn't react at all, but Zhang Rang's face showed a strange smile that was not easy to detect, and it disappeared in an instant.

Lu Bu fell to the ground on his side with his back to the sky, and there was already a touch of scarlet on the tip of the arrow.

Hahaha...... Dead, dead......

Looking at Lu Bu, who was already 'dead' on the ground, Dou Wei suddenly laughed in his heart: "You made me so ugly, I deserve to die, if you want to blame yourself, you can't blame me." ”

"Dou Wei, you are simply a dog, you dare to shoot a courtier in front of me, and do you still take me in your eyes!" Liu Hong, who came back to his senses, was furious and slapped the table and scolded Dou Wei.

He is the Son of Heaven, and no one has ever dared to be so unscrupulous in front of him.

"Your Majesty, General Dou never dared to ignore you, maybe he wanted to test whether General Lu's reaction was sensitive, but he didn't expect to hurt him by mistake, it was really an accident!" Zhang Rang pleaded for Dou Wei on the side, but Dou Wei was also a dog under his door, and if he could raise it, he would raise it first.

After speaking, Zhang Rang gave Dou Wei another look, "General Dou, but like this?" ”

With Zhang Rang to show him the way, Dou Wei was not a fool, and hurriedly knelt down towards Liu Hong, kowtowed and admitted his mistake, "Yes, yes, it is true that as Zhang Gong said, the minister just wanted to try General Lu's reaction, but he accidentally injured him, please forgive your majesty." ”

The courtiers all watched the excitement, anyway, Lu Bu was not related to them, whether he lived or died had nothing to do with them, and they didn't have to worry about it, but it was a pity that the arrows just now were wonderful, and it was estimated that I would like to see it again in this life, I am afraid it will be difficult.

Even with Zhang Rang's plea, Liu Hong was still angry, and finally met someone who had the right appetite, but now he died like this, and he was still in front of him, watching him die.

"Try so-and-so's reaction, great!"

The cold voice did not carry a trace of emotion, cold as an ice cellar. He never thought about taking the initiative to deal with or hurt anyone, why do people always want him to die, it used to be like this in Bingzhou, and now in Luoyang, it's still like this!

Lu Bu, who was supposed to go to see the king of Hades, suddenly stood up at this moment, and there was an inch-long bloody mouth on Lang Yi's face, and the bright blood flowed slowly down the wound and slowly flowed down his cheeks.

Such a close-range shot actually allowed him to dodge.

Is this guy a monster!!

Dou Wei's face was full of horror, Lu Bu stepped forward and raised his leg is a kick, kicking Dou Wei in the abdomen fiercely, and after he covered his stomach and retreated a few steps, Lu Bu rushed forward and hit a right hook punch, hitting the left side of Dou Wei's head.

Airplanes~~~

Dou Wei fell to the ground almost the moment he was hit, only to feel as if his head had been hit hard by the bell hammer, and the buzzing sound echoed in his mind.

Dou Wei struggled to sit up, and a black shoe stepped on his chest again from above, stepping his hardly sat up body into the ground again.

The young man looked at Dou Wei with a downward gaze, casually pulled a feather arrow from Dou Wei's quiver, put it on the bowstring, and easily pulled the bow to perfection, his smile was indifferent, and there was no half human emotion in his voice: "Now, it's time to test whether the general is sensitive in your reaction." ”

The arrow was less than two feet away from Dou Wei, and even a blind man could shoot him to death.

A person who can pull the three-stone bow to such an extreme, his arm strength is simply terrifying, Dou Wei can be regarded as understanding at this moment that he has provoked a god who should not be provoked, and the feeling of his life in the hands of others is really uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to move, so he had to look at Zhang Rang and shout: "Zhang Gong, save me!" ”

"General Lu, what are you doing, General Dou was just joking with you just now, stop it quickly." Zhang Rang hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade.

Sou!

Lu Bu flicked his fingers on the bowstring, and the arrow shot directly through Dou Wei's head, nailing his entire head to the ground, and after a while, red blood flowed out of his eyebrows.

Looking at Dou Wei, whose eyes were white and dead on the ground, Lu Bu waved his hand and made a helpless look: "I'm also joking, I didn't expect this General Dou's reaction to be so bad, he couldn't even dodge arrows." ”

If someone wants to harm me, I will never be merciful, and Lu Bu's code of conduct has always been like this.

Lu Bu was desperate to kill Dou Wei, which made Zhang Rang feel very annoyed, so he called Lu Bu's name and shouted: "Lu Bu, you are presumptuous, you dare to deliberately shoot the court officials in front of Your Majesty, come here, capture this fang for me!" ”

Hundreds of palace guards received the order, quickly surrounded Lu Bu, and drew their weapons to face each other.

"Zhang Rang, is it possible that Dou Wei is only allowed to attack Lu Bu secretly, and Lu Bu is not allowed to fight back against Dou Wei, how can there be such a reason in the world." He Jin, the general of the dwarf dun's chariot cavalry, spoke, through Lu Bu's brave performance just now, He Jin decided to take Lu Bu for his own use, if there is such a powerful thug by his side, who else can hurt him in the future.

"What He Qing said is very reasonable, and he can miss at such a close distance, what is the use of me keeping him for such a waste!" Liu Hong waved his hand to disperse the guards surrounding Lu Bu, as soon as he spoke, it showed that the wood was already in the boat, and even if Zhang Rang wanted to make it difficult for Lu Bu, he could only wait for other opportunities.

"Your Majesty is wise." The courtiers chimed in.

Liu Hong was not angry with himself, and Lu Bu was somewhat relieved, after all, it was a great taboo to kill people in front of the emperor, so he bowed his hand and thanked him: "Your Majesty Lu Bu Xie is forgiving." ”

"Lu Qing, your archery skills are simply amazing!" Liu Hong praised without hesitation, "I have already sent someone to summon the palace painter, and I want to draw your heroic posture into a bow shooting picture and hang it in the martial pavilion, what do you think?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the courtiers present all showed surprised looks.

Where did Lu Bu know the meaning of the Martial Pavilion, but he thought that it should be no worse, so he bowed down and thanked: "All listen to Your Majesty's orders." ”

At this time, a person suddenly rushed out of the courtiers of the civil officials, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, no! ”

As soon as the decree was promulgated, someone came out to dismantle the platform and collide with it, isn't this a deliberate attempt to find fault?

Liu Hong was a little unhappy in his heart, and looked at the person, it was Taizhong doctor Li Hong, Liu Hong asked with a calm face, "Why not?" ”

"Your Majesty, since Emperor Guangwu, there have been two pavilions of virtuous and martial arts, which of the portraits enshrined in them are not sages and famous generals, which are not the talents of governing the world, and their merits are prominent, and Lu Bu is just a border martial artist, and his achievements are not shown, how can he hang his portrait in the martial pavilion." Taizhong doctor Li Hong quoted scriptures and classics, and said it with confidence, and he didn't care about Liu Hong's mood at all, who had already darkened half of his face.

Without waiting for Liu Hong to speak, Zhang Rang took the lead and scolded: "Li Taizhong, how can Your Majesty allow you to put your beak." I think that at the beginning, the general Wei Qing was just a slave herding sheep, and the champion Hou Huo was also from a humble background, but now General Lu can repel Xianbei at a young age, and his archery skills are superb, why can't he be hung in the martial arts? ”

Zhang Rang's words scolded Li Hong bloody, on the surface Zhang Rang was fighting for the opportunity for Lu Bu, but in fact, he wanted to make those courtiers angry with Lu Bu through this matter. Then it's good to watch the play on the sidelines and watch them fight to the death.

"Emasculation, what do you know!" Li Hong was not used to seeing the likes of the Ten Standing Servants, and he scolded angrily at this moment.

Hearing the quarrel between the two parties, Liu Hong couldn't sit still, and scolded Li Hong on the spot: "Bastard, get back to the wall for me, and wait until you think clearly before entering the court." ”

Lu Bu also understood what the Martial Pavilion meant, and took the opportunity to interject halfway: "Your Majesty, the minister's qualifications are stupid, and he has no achievements, so he really can't enter the Martial Pavilion." ”

"What can you get into, I can just take a good look at you." Liu Hong waved his hand, he is the Son of Heaven, and he has the final say in this world.

His Majesty the Emperor was iron-hearted, and the others could only comply with his wishes, and when Li Hong left, he glanced at Lu Bu with resentment, and there was a great tendency to die.

Soon, the court painter was summoned to the martial arts field, and the brown-shirted man with two beards greeted the emperor before he began to paint.

Under the guidance and traction of the painter, Lu Bu faced the arc moon high in the northwest sky, his left leg straightened, his body leaned back slightly, and the carved bow in his hand was full, like a full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Half an hour later, the painter stopped his ink pen and habitually touched his beard twice, obviously extremely satisfied with his work.

Zhang Rang ordered someone to present the scroll, and Liu Hong was completely attracted by the content on the scroll at the first glance when he opened it, and after reading it several times, he was satisfied to show it to the ministers.

On the white cloth scroll, a young man in a red court dress looks handsome, in the cold moonlight, with a bow facing the sky, a low brow, and a resolute face, looking at the posture as if to shoot a huge prey, even through this white cloth, that unrivaled momentum can still be felt.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for capturing such a fierce general, it is really a blessing for my great man, and Your Majesty is mighty." Zhang Rang's sycophant shot made Liu Hong feel refreshed.

Then, Zhang Rang continued: "But since General Lu has proved his skills, the old slave thinks that how can a good general do without a good horse, it is better to ask Your Majesty to give another good horse to show Your Majesty's love for talent." ”

Liu Hong was in a good mood, and felt that Zhang Rang was very reasonable, so he nodded and agreed: "What Father said is good, he should give Lu Qing a good horse." ”

The courtiers wondered in their hearts, wondering what kind of ecstasy Zhang Rang was selling in this gourd, and how he could suddenly ask for a reward for Lu Bu. Judging from their years of experience in fighting with Zhang Rang, there must be a conspiracy hidden in this.

Sure enough, Zhang Rang's next sentence completely confirmed their thoughts, only to see Zhang Rang leaning over Liu Hong's ear and coming up with an idea: "Your Majesty, three months ago, Dawan Kingdom paid tribute to a bloody horse, which was originally intended to be given to Dong Zhuo, the Taishou of Hedong, so why don't you give it to General Lu first, how about it?" ”

(Sorry for keeping everyone waiting so long.) ）
