Close the ring
The man who entered the shooting event not long after them was named Zhang Qing.
He just refused to talk to anyone, and the name was only seen through the electronic display on the screen.
He doesn't look very old, probably in his early thirties, but his body is a little disproportionate.
It seems that he is extremely passionate about training the muscles of his upper body. His arms are as strong as bullfrogs. Even though he is wearing loose sportswear, his thick arms can still be seen clearly.
His chest muscles are also very obvious, and his body is shaped like an inverted triangle. He looks like he can break someone's nose with just a light punch.
The legs are actually the same as those of ordinary people, but when connected to the upper body like this, it looks like the wrong parts are installed.
There is basically no expression on his face. How should I describe it? A faint sense of death.
Ding Can felt that what he did was correct. If he just wanted to survive, he only needed to practice a single skill, and he should be able to handle most of the ring tasks.
She watched Zhang Qing's repetitive movements, and later felt that he didn't even look like a human, but rather a programmed machine.
Those who are undergoing other training programs on this self-cultivation island are probably in the same situation.
No wonder these people are called patients. Even those with the best mental attitudes will probably become walking corpses once they arrive on the island.
Ding Can stared at the red dot in front of him for a long time, and his gaze began to diverge outward.
Beginning to be affected by the floating results screen, she felt that it was probably also produced by some inconspicuous spotlights on the ground.
It is also connected to a sensing device, so as long as an arrow is shot, it will move forward a certain distance accordingly.
Naturally, nothing was found on the ground, but above the ground, in some hidden corners, there was something wrong.
It is normal for the rainforest to have lush branches and leaves. The sea breeze blows to every corner of the island, even the plants that are tightly connected are no exception.
The leaves swayed in the wind, and the sounds of them colliding with each other were lost in the sound of the waves.
It is a normal natural phenomenon. There are some leaves that are also blown by the wind, but their movements are different.
Although it fluctuates with the wind direction, there is basically no curling.
After careful comparison, it was found that there were indeed subtle differences between the leaves and the real leaves next to them, with a different luster on them. Every time Zhang Qing shot an arrow, a tiny ray of light flashed on it very quickly, and the red dot followed forward.
In fact, the red light spots do not move directly and evenly, but rather jump from point to point.
The distance from the starting point to the target is several dozen meters. We can see some of it from where we are standing now. In order to maintain the movement of the red dot, there must be quite a few on the treetops along the way.
But you have to spend some time looking to fully distinguish them.
Ding Can slowly turned his arms to relax his muscles, then tapped his sore shoulders: "See?"
She pointed out a few points to Yu Fu, but unexpectedly, he quickly understood what she meant and found them accurately.
"You have such good eyesight."
Yu Fu curled his lips: "No, you are more accurate."
Ding Can was more self-aware. He only glanced at the height of the leaves he had locked onto and quickly gave up the idea of doing it himself. "Go pick one and we'll study it."
Yu Fu raised his foot, walked around Zhang Qing's back, and came to the side of the archery area. He raised his hand and pulled. Without much effort, the leaves were pulled down lightly.
He tilted the branch sideways and saw the cross section of the branch he had torn off. There were spider-like electronic circuits inside. When he touched it with his fingers, it seemed to still have some residual warmth.
Seeing him picking leaves, Zhang Qing, who was wearing headphones and shooting arrows not far away without blinking, was finally willing to pay some attention to him.
Zhang Qing took off his headphones: "What are you doing?"
He must be very confident in his upper limb ability, which is why he came here directly and chose this sport. And looking at the current situation, the latecomers are ahead and are indeed about to overtake them.
It will probably be basically completed in less than an hour.
Yu Fu glanced at him and thought about his impolite behavior just now. He actually ignored a word Ding Can said.
I had originally decided not to speak, but I heard Ding Can speak first: "We are tired, so we picked some leaves to play with. Do you need some? I'll pick one for you too."
Zhang Qing was speechless, thinking that these two people must be crazy.
Then he thought it was normal. There were so many crazy people on this island every day. He ignored it and put on his headphones again. The heavy metal music entered his ears and the world finally became quiet again.
The quiver has now been replenished, and the dawn of victory is just around the corner, but today's task is not easy.
What he didn't know was that the two of them were chattering behind him.
Yu Fu handed the leaf over: "Take a look and see if you have found anything?"
Ding Can took it and held it in his hand. Although there were veins and lines on it, it looked like a business card and had good ductility and memory function.
The special material will return to the natural shape of the leaf no matter how you fold it.
She lifted the leaf above her head, hoping to find some clues in the sunlight, but no matter how hard she looked, it was just the veins of the leaf.
The only thing that is certain is that these different and special leaves can project light spots that represent scores.
"Are these trees real trees?" Yu Fu looked at everything in front of him and felt that it was very unreal. Every blade of grass, every tree, even the soil and stones were probably mixed with the same thing.
"Since we're all imprisoned on this island, it's normal for people to be constantly watching us."
Ding Can felt that something was wrong with him. He had gotten used to being monitored all the time.
She looked up at the sky, and it seemed that she hadn't seen any birds flying low in the sky since a long time ago.
If the bird grows wings, it will be possible for it to escape from the island. Does this mean that all factors that may leak information about the Xiushen Island can be avoided?
As the leaf in the hand rotates, the texture on it gradually changes slightly. When the palm is placed underneath, the small patch of light on the skin can be seen to be slightly different from the actual sunlight.
Although they are no longer affected by the circuits on the trees, the leaves themselves are made of special materials and can still emit different colors.
A light bulb went off in her head, and she suddenly thought of something: "We originally thought that the red dot would be a success if it could illuminate the number of rings on the target, right?"
Perhaps, the number of times is not important, as long as there is a light spot on the target.
Yu Fu understood what he meant: "Then let's give it a try?"
Ding Can glanced at Zhang Qing's back not far away. During the time they were studying the leaves, the light in front of him had gotten closer to the target. "Don't worry, he's almost at the finish line."
It's a good opportunity to borrow it to see how scoring is routinely done in archery.
Yu Fu agreed with her idea very much and regarded it as a punishment for Zhang Qing's bad attitude towards them just now.
Although Zhang Qing came with great momentum, his speed slowed down later. After half an hour, he was only one meter away from the target.
He breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and saw that the two men were still sitting under the shade of a tree on the side, and had not continued.
And it seemed that they were always observing his movements. When he turned around, he immediately caught the gazes of the two people, who were looking at him with encouragement in their eyes.
"What? You want to give up just like that?" Zhang Qing felt that the two of them had rested long enough, and it was a bit too lax to behave like this on the island.
It looked like someone who had just arrived on the island and had not yet grasped what Xiushen Island really represented.
"Yeah, I can't lift my arms anymore, so I'll save some energy for the afternoon exercise." Ding Can said this with his hands still resting on his legs.
"Okay, watch me show you an example." Zhang Qing did not dare to relax. In fact, his physical strength was about to be exhausted, and he almost gritted his teeth in the end.
With the last arrow, the red dot finally reached the circle and landed at the seventh ring.
The position of the light spot will also be slightly affected by the accuracy and force of the arrow, and the position where it lands on the target will of course be different.
However, Zhang Qing's requirements were not too high. As long as he could complete the exercise, it would be fine. After all, his strengths were not here.
The electronic screen showing the results flashed a few times before the results finally appeared for the first time.
Behind Zhang Qing's name, the word "seven points" appeared.
When someone achieves a result in this sport, a ranking will automatically begin, and the order of the names above will change. Zhang Qing will take the first place.
As for Ding Can and the others, they had no scores, so of course their ranking boxes were blank.
"I advise you not to rest for too long. Once you rest for too long, you will never be able to stand up again." Zhang Qing muttered a few words and put the bow and arrow on a tree beside him.
Thinking of the people who had arrived here at the same time as him, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he still reminded them: "Don't think the training is harsh. The consequences of failing to complete it will be much more difficult to accept than you expect."
After saying this, Zhang Qing wanted to leave, but was stopped by these two unfamiliar faces.
"I see you're quite familiar with archery. We could discuss it."
Zhang Qing found it a little hard to believe what she said. When he came here just now, he observed the two people's archery movements. They had no skills at all and looked like novices.
If you don’t know what kind of force is most effective, muscle strain is inevitable.
Now he actually wants to share his experience with me. If I ask for advice, he might believe me a little.
"You heard right." Ding Can looked at his speechless expression and could probably guess what he was thinking. However, considering that he had just said those words that seemed to be for their sake, he decided to let him stay and see.
If the method she came up with is really effective, she doesn't mind sharing it with others.
"We may have found a way to achieve high scores in archery without having to shoot thousands of times."
Seeing that the man spoke righteously and calmly without any sign of panic, Zhang Qing's originally lazy expression straightened up.
"Are you serious?"
