After careful communication, Chai Yan understood that it turned out that Shangguan Peining was not proficient in archery, but she still knew a little bit about it, and she could also let Chai Yan practice archery in his own mind space.
However, Chai Yan had to get his own longbow and feathered arrows, and of course, the target!
As for the effect of learning, it depends on Chai Yan's own understanding.
Although the hope of reaching the target was slim, Chaiyan still made up his mind to give it a try.
In an assessment of "bow", Chaiyan asked himself that it was impossible to meet the standard for the "mounted archery" event, but it didn't matter. As long as the other two events, "riding archery" and "long stack", met the standard, he would be considered qualified!
As long as you pass the "bow" level, there will be plenty of opportunities for Wushendou to show off his prowess in the "force" and "wu" levels that follow. Chai Yan is not worried at all!
After thinking carefully, Chai Yan rushed to the side door without stopping. He had to hurry up and go to the street to see if he could buy some longbows and arrows.
On the way, Chai Yan met Xia Qi. Xia Qi saw Chai Yan walking in a hurry and stopped him immediately.
"Brother Chai, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Chai Yan did not hide anything and said directly: "Brother Xia, Master Duanmu ordered me to take the assessment in three days, so I want to go out and buy a bow... You know, sharpening a gun in battle will make it shine even if it is not bright...
....."
Xia Qi immediately laughed and said: "Brother Chai, there are things like bows and arrows. We have plenty of them in the Wude Division's warehouse. Why do you need to pay for them yourself? Haha..."
"Brother Xia means that I can borrow bows and arrows from the warehouse?" Chai Yan said in surprise.
Chai Yan thought it would be great if he could borrow it. Buying it outside would not only be time-consuming, laborious and expensive, but the quality might not be as good as those at Wudes.
The most important thing is that the bows and arrows used in the school assessment must be those in the warehouse. If the ones bought are different, a novice like me will lose all the feeling when changing bows and arrows before going on the field!
"Of course!" Xia Qi patted his chest and said, "Come on, I know the person in charge of the warehouse. I'll take you to talk to him. There won't be any problem..."
Chai Yan immediately expressed his thanks and said that it seemed that the big meal yesterday was quite useful.
Then, Xia Qi led Chai Yan towards the warehouse.
When they arrived at the Wude Secretary's warehouse, Chai Yan heard their conversation and realized that Xia Qi and the warehouse guard were from the same hometown, and that Xia Qi and the man on duty lived in a neighboring village.
After Xia Qi briefly explained his purpose, the warehouse guard readily agreed.
Chai Yan was also very sensible, so he took out some money and quietly handed it to the warehouse guard to express his gratitude.
Being a warehouse guard was a low-paying position, and when he suddenly received the benefits from Chai Yan, he was immediately elated and praised Xia Qi repeatedly for his ability to make friends and his foresight.
Xia Qi felt comfortable and gained face after hearing these words.
As a result, the warehouse guard gave the green light and personally accompanied Chai Yan and Xia Qi to select bows and arrows.
Xia Qi and the warehouse guard were chatting softly as they walked. Chai Yan pricked up his ears and listened for a few words. It turned out that they were talking about something that happened in their village.
Chai Yan stopped listening and turned his head to look at everything in the warehouse.
There are many types of weapons placed in the warehouse, including swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks, and many more weapons that Chaiyan can’t name. In short, there are eighteen kinds of weapons!
Not long after, Chai Yan and Xia Qi followed the warehouse guard to a room dedicated to storing bows and arrow feathers.
The warehouse guard said: "Brother Chai, all the bows and arrows are here..."
Chai Yan looked at the room full of bows and arrows and asked the guard: "What kind of bows and arrows are used in the assessment?"
The warehouse guard understood what he meant, so he went to search among the bows and arrows, then picked out a recurve bow and said, "That's it, the Moon Chasing Bow!"
"Chasing the Moon Bow?" Chai Yanxin said that the bow looked ordinary, but the name was quite nice.
After handing the bow to Chai Yan, the warehouse guard pointed to the depths of the room and said, "Brother Chai, the arrows and quiver are all inside. You can take as many as you want. Xia Qi and I are waiting for you outside.
There’s no rush…”
After saying that, the guard and Xia Qi went outside to chat.
Chai Yan tried to pull the bow string, but he was stunned as soon as he started to use it. With his own original strength, the extent of pulling the bow string was completely negligible!
The standard Moon Chasing Bow of Wu Desi is a stone bow. In Dasheng, one stone is equal to about 120 kilograms. In other words, Chai Yan needs to have a drawing force of 120 kilograms to draw the bow.
His current arm strength is simply not enough...
But Chai Yan is not worried. After all, with Wu Shen Dou here, the problem of insufficient strength can be solved.
Putting down the Moon Chasing Bow, Chai Yan walked to the innermost part of the room. He took down an arrow pot from the wall, then took twenty more feather arrows and put them into the arrow pot, and then slung them behind his back.
It's enough to borrow these on the surface, and then it's time for Chai Yan to load his personal belongings into the storage bracelet!
After walking around the house, Chai Yan got a total of two moon-chasing bows, two large bundles of feather arrows, and an archery target from the storage space.
When Chai Yan came out of the house with a moon-chasing bow and an arrow kettle, Xia Qi and the guard were chatting happily, with deep smiles on their faces.
Seeing Chai Yan come out, the warehouse guard stepped forward and said: "Brother Chai, please remember to return the bow and arrow before dark. I will keep it for you alone. If you need it tomorrow, just come back and borrow it. Don't take it back to your residence."
....."
Xia Qi also came over, nodded and said: "Brother Chai, you can use bows and arrows in the school grounds, but you must not take them back to your residence, lest... Anyway, remember, this is the rule of Wude Division...
..."
"Understood." Chai Yan agreed neatly, thinking that fortunately I had the foresight and saved some private goods!
After coming out of the warehouse, Xia Qi was worried that Chai Yan had gone the wrong way, so he took him to the school grounds again.
There were not many people on the school field at this time. Xia Qi raised his hand and pointed to the area where a row of arrow targets were erected and said: "Brother Chai, you can just go over and practice. I won't accompany you anymore..."
After saying that, Xia Qi left.
Chai Yan walked to an archery target on his own and said in his heart: "Shangguan Peining, please give me some martial arts beans, otherwise I won't be able to shoot this bow..."
"Thankfully you are still a man. Look next door, there is a woman who is much better than you..." Shangguan Peining felt ashamed for Chai Yan.
Chai Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned around to look. Sure enough, in a parallel position not far away, there was a tall woman dressed as a warrior standing.
The woman was dressed in a smart outfit. Not only was she tall, she also had a beautiful face, and her temperament was heroic, free and easy.
