Accompanied by the figure crossing the finish line with great momentum,
"qualified--!"
…
Then came to the Archery Club
Open the Japanese-style wooden sliding door, walk into the dojo, and then close the door.
The hustle and bustle outside was immediately isolated, and in the Zen-like quiet atmosphere, only the occasional aggressive sounds came from inside.
"Sorry to bother you," Kato Yusuke stood at the entrance and shouted looking inside.
A figure soon appeared at the end of the corridor. A short-haired woman in archery uniform walked over and asked with a gentle smile on her face: "Can I help you?"
"Hello, I am Kato Yusuke from Class E of the first year. If possible, I would like to participate in your department's assessment."
"...Huh?" Facing his straight-to-the-point statement, the woman in Kyudo uniform first turned her head in confusion, her eyes paused on Kato Yusuke's face for a moment, and then returned to the right angle, "I understand, then please follow me.
."
"So easy?"
Kato Yusuke raised his eyebrows. You must know that the sports clubs he went to before all took it as a provocation after hearing his intention.
In comparison, this girl was a bit too talkative. Another person's face could not help but appear in his mind, and he asked: "Who are you?"
"Nakano Ryoko, a third-year student, is also the commander and director of the Kyudo Club." The short-haired girl responded.
"Buchou..." Kato Yusuke murmured, and followed her through the entrance corridor.
The field of vision immediately broadened.
The dojo is semi-open, half indoors and half outdoors, and the Japanese-style decoration is full of Zen.
"Minister." x6
The two men and four women sitting on their knees bowed slightly to Ryoko Nakano, and then cast curious eyes on Yusuke Kato.
Ryoko Nakano paused slightly and introduced to everyone: "This is Kato-kun. He wants to come and learn about the work of our Kyudo club. Don't worry, please continue training."
"Yes!"x6
After hearing this, everyone started doing what they were doing again.
Ryoko Nakano took Yusuke Kato to the storage room on the other side of the dojo.
"These are the clothes left by the students who resigned from the club before, but the footbags are brand new. If you don't mind, just wear this, Kato-kun." Nakano Ryoko took a kyudo uniform wrapped in velvet from the shelf and handed it to
Kato Yusuke.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have to go to such trouble. Just let me take part in the assessment."
Nakano Ryoko smiled and said nothing.
Seeing this, Kato Yusuke was stunned for a moment, then sighed slightly: "...I understand, I will change now."
Nakano Ryoko:(^-^)
"Nakano-senpai?"
"Um?"
"I'm going to change clothes."
"OK."
"...You want to stay here?"
"Kato-kun." Nakano Ryoko pointed to the clothes in his hand, "Can you wear the Kyudo uniform?"
"It's just clothes, I will study it myself-"
"What about the so-called Kyudo spirit?" Nakano Ryoko interrupted him: "One of the trainings is etiquette and mind training. The purpose is to exercise people's mental power and willpower, so that we can experience the "quiet" world."
"...In other words?"
"Let me help you put it on."
"Senior...do you know what you are talking about?"
"knew."
After about three seconds of silence, Kato Yusuke nodded.
"good."
"I only have one sportswear anyway."
With this in mind, he unzipped and took off his white short-sleeved sports coat.
Nakano Ryoko:(^-^)
Not yet?
Kato Yusuke frowned, then stretched his hand to the hem of his clothes, and then slowly pulled it up. His well-defined body and eight-pack abs on his lower abdomen were gradually exposed, and when it was pulled to about one-third of the way -
—
"That's enough." Nakano Ryoko stopped her, and the color of her face changed slightly. "First put on your footbags and gown."
"Oh." Kato Yusuke did as he was told.
The so-called footbags are white tabi socks. In addition to being used with herringbone clogs, they are also worn in some formal occasions such as tea ceremonies. Men usually wear black footbags, and women wear white or patterned ones.
foot bag.
After seeing that he was dressed, Nakano Ryoko reached out and picked up the black horn belt (belt), wrapped it around his waist twice, low in front and high in the back, then tied the belt behind his waist and inserted the tail end.
Finally, the drop skirt
After asking Yusuke Kato to put his feet in first, Ryoko Nakano helped him combine the front and back parts of the skirt with the previous corner straps.
Then he brought a shè, a kind of glove made of deerskin, which can effectively protect the thumb, index finger and middle finger of the hand that pulls the string.
After everything was put on, Ryoko Nakano looked at him carefully and then nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, let's go."
The two walked out of the storage room one after another, and the members of the team all looked at them, and then——
Their eyes were attracted by the tall figure behind.
Wearing a white gown, a black dropped skirt, and her exposed forearms are slender and fair.
Under the fine short black hair, a pair of black eyes were as quiet and deep as the night sky. When the young man stepped forward, even the sunlight seemed to be affected, coating him with a layer of golden-orange light.
Like a handsome young man stepping out of a painting.
Perhaps at this time, the charm value of 7 is truly deserved.
"What are you looking at?" Ryoko Nakano looked at the club members with a smile, and said to one of the girls with the most obvious gaze: "Sami, what are the "Eight Sections of Shooting Techniques" in Kyudo? Can you please explain?
For a moment?"
The tone was very polite, but it gave people an irresistible feeling.
"Yes, yes!" The girl named Zomi stood up immediately.
"The so-called "Eight Knots of Archery" refers to a series of eight movements. It is a theoretical knowledge formulated by the Japanese Kyudo Committee that every beginner must learn."
"These eight actions are stepping on the feet, settling down, setting the bow, raising the bow, stretching the bow, aiming, shooting, and paying attention. The key points of each action are..."
3 minutes later
"Above!" the girl who finished answering in detail said loudly and bowed slightly to the general.
"Correct answer." Ryoko Nakano clapped her hands in praise, then looked back at Yusuke Kato, "Do you understand, Kato-kun?"
"Yes, everything is clear." Kato Yusuke nodded and said thank you to the girl named Sami.
The other party immediately blushed and responded "You're welcome" a little shyly.
Ryoko Nakano watched this scene with a smile. After the two of them finished speaking, she led Yusuke Kato to the bow stand.
"If you don't mind it, just use this."
The commander took the girl down from the shelf and handed it to Kato Yusuke.
