Chapter 68 Surveillance
"Bunny, don't run, I'll shoot!"
The ten archers were very enthusiastic and kept shooting arrows.
To be honest, shooting rabbits is much more interesting than shooting scarecrows, and it greatly stimulates people's desire to kill.
"You should practice well. On the day of the competition, the more rabbits you shoot, the more reward money you can get. Do you understand?" Dong Xianrong said.
"clear!"
The ten archers were very excited.
They were the ten best archers among the three hundred archers, and they had live rabbits to practice shooting, so the conditions couldn't be better.
On the other side, Huang Dashun and his group were not very good at archery, and they didn't have any live rabbits to practice with.
All in all, the advantage is mine!
"Don't worry, Lord Dong, we will definitely win!" The ten archers were full of confidence.
After hearing this, Dong Xianrong sneered in his heart. He had never placed his hopes on these ten archers.
He turned his head, waved his hand, and called out, "Lao Gao, come here."
Gao Daxing came running over, forcing a chrysanthemum-like smile on his old face, and bowed and said, "Master, what do you want me to do?"
Dong Xianrong glanced at Fang Zhixing and ordered, "Sort out the 'good records' of those ten people and send them to my father."
The household registration system in the Great Zhou Dynasty was divided into four categories.
The first class is the noble class, that is, the aristocratic families; the second class is the good class, that is, the ordinary people; the third class is the slave class, that is, the slave status, such as those who sold themselves to wealthy families as slaves; the fourth class is the lowly class, that is, prostitutes, actors, beggars and the like, and their lowly class is passed down from generation to generation, and their descendants are still lowly and cannot become officials.
Those who are qualified to be selected into the Archery Camp are all from good families.
Hearing this, Gao Daxing rubbed his hands together and said with embarrassment: "Master, the records of the Archery Battalion are confidential. I..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Dong Xianrong, who said directly: "If you handle this matter well, my father will give you a reward, enough for your retirement."
Gao Daxing was overjoyed and ran there happily.
Dong Xianrong turned his head, looked at Fang Zhixing for a while, sneered a few times, and turned away.
Soon, he left in a carriage, passing through the streets and alleys, and entered Hanxiang Tower with ease.
"Cousin, come quickly!"
As soon as Dong Xianrong entered the door, he heard Luo Kezhao's wild laughter.
A group of girls in fancy clothes surrounded him, singing and dancing, and the air was filled with fragrance.
"Cousin, you are so cool!"
Dong Xianrong laughed heartily, opened his arms and immersed himself in the joyful atmosphere.
…
…
In the blink of an eye it was afternoon.
In the shooting range, a new thing caught everyone's eye and attracted the attention of a group of archers.
Fang Zhixing found a piece of wood, smeared a layer of lime powder on the surface, and then drew concentric circles with soot from the bottom of the pot.
Finally, the center of the circle was painted red with borrowed rouge.
He stood the board upright.
Just like that, a "rotating bull's eye" was born.
"Master Fang, what is this?"
Huang Dashun and others widened their eyes, their faces full of curiosity.
Fang Zhixing smiled and said, "This is the target I made for you. You used a scarecrow to practice archery before, but the scarecrow was too big and lacked a focal point. With this target, you only need to aim at the red dot in the center when practicing archery, which will definitely greatly improve your shooting accuracy."
Everyone suddenly understood and found it magical.
Afterwards, everyone worked together to help, and soon made dozens of targets and laid them out in a row.
Huang Dashun and his team abandoned the scarecrow and instead used a rotating bull's eye for practice.
Before I knew it, it was evening.
Fang Zhixing finished a day's training, returned to the villa, had dinner and took a bath.
Xigou couldn't help but ask in a voice transmission: "Are you serious? Are you really going to teach those people everything you know?"
Fang Zhixing replied: "What do you mean by teaching them everything I know? I only taught them the basics. You don't think archery is easy to learn, do you?
The quality of those archers is very poor, most of them are mediocre, even if they practice diligently for ten years, only a small number of them can reach the level of ordinary archers. "
Xigou was puzzled and asked, "If that's the case, why are you so serious? What's the point?"
Fang Zhixing replied unhappily, "Can you please use your brain? This competition is not my stage, nor is it Dong Xianrong's stage. It is a game set up by Luo Peiyun. Everyone is his pawn, and everyone's every move is under his control."
Xigou's heart skipped a beat and he asked in surprise, "Are you saying that we are being monitored by Luo Peiyun?"
"You just realized it. You're a fucking dog, but you didn't realize that I was being monitored the whole time? What's the point of keeping you?" Fang Zhixing was speechless.
The dog was extremely embarrassed and said angrily: "Although I am not a human, you are a real dog!"
…
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
…
Night falls.
Wen Yuwen walked into Luo Peiyun's study.
"master."
Wen Yuwen walked up to Luo Peiyun and respectfully handed him a document.
Luo Peiyun opened the document and read it carefully.
The document clearly recorded all of Fang Zhixing's actions today, including when he got up, what he ate, what he did in the training ground, what he said, etc., every detail.
"Oh, he made a new kind of target?"
Luo Peiyun's expression changed, he was surprised and delighted, he said: "This boy is really talented, it seems I have found a treasure!"
Wen Yuwen smiled and said, "Half a year ago, 'Li Banxian' told you that you would have great luck and good fortune. It seems that what he said has come true."
"Hahaha!"
Luo Peiyun couldn't help but laugh. After a moment, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How's the investigation going on with that matter?"
Wen Yuwen said seriously, "Master, you only informed Songlin Temple two days in advance that you were going to burn incense and pray, but the pirates had already made preparations for the assassination before that, so the person who leaked the news was not someone from Songlin Temple."
Luo Peiyun's face darkened and he said coldly, "That is to say, the person who leaked the news has indeed been with us all along."
Wen Yuwen nodded and said, "Well, there are only a few people who know about this in advance. There are only five people who are responsible for your travel safety, namely Chief Constable Ding Zhigang and four constables."
Luo Peiyun asked: "Have you identified who it is?"
Wen Yuwen lowered his head and whispered.
After hearing this, Luo Peiyun looked irritated and slammed the table angrily.
"The last time pirates robbed our money, I suspected there was a spy among us!"
Luo Peiyun's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The matter of military pay was extremely confidential, and there were only a few people who knew the inside story, all of whom were close to him.
After a brief investigation, Luo Peiyun found out who was the most suspicious, but he could not be completely sure due to the lack of conclusive evidence.
This time, the other party finally showed his true colors.
"Master, can we start arresting people now?" Wen Yuwen asked.
Luo Peiyun suddenly calmed down and said calmly: "No hurry, we have to fill the hole in the salary first, this is the top priority."
Wen Yuwen understood and nodded, "Then follow the plan you set before and proceed with the next step."
"Well, go ahead and do it."
Luo Peiyun sat down slowly, picked up the document again, and read through Fang Zhixing's action records, with admiration in his eyes.
