She wants to come to the crossbow competition?
Master Liang looked at her inquiringly. Cheng Lisu whispered, "Master Liang, is there anything comparable to this bow and crossbow?"
Coach Liang shook his head, "I don't know." In terms of bows and crossbows, there are actually many things that can be compared, but they are similar. He Yan has already shot a flying bird, so the rest should not be difficult. But what she meant by this was that she must beat Wang Ba without a doubt. But what else can Wang Ba not do, but she can do alone?
Wang Ba was stunned at first, then he sneered, "Ask it if you want!"
The worst that can happen is just one more draw, he thought.
He Yan smiled slightly, she walked to Cheng Lisu's side, suddenly reached out and pulled off the headband that held up Cheng Lisu's long hair.
Cheng Lisu was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, his long hair had already fallen down. He asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry, brother," He Yan said with a smile, "Since you want to be my sworn brother, I think you won't be stingy and lend me a headband."
“But you can…” Cheng Lisu twirled her hair with her hands and muttered softly, “This is too sudden. Besides, why don’t you use your own headband?” He Yan obviously has one too.
"I noticed that your headband is much more exquisite than mine. Maybe it's because of your good luck, so I'm lending you some of the good luck." He Yan lied without changing his expression.
Who doesn't like to hear nice words? Cheng Lisu immediately smiled and said, "Okay, okay! Just use it!"
No one understood what he was doing with Cheng Lisu's headband. He Yan slowly wrapped the headband around his hands and covered his eyes.
“He is…” Everyone gradually understood what he was going to do.
The yellow headband covered her eyes tightly. She reached behind her head and tied a knot gently before saying, "Okay."
In fact, He Yan didn't use his or others' headbands because it was a hot day, and they were running and practicing archery, so they were already stained with sweat. The people in the barracks were not particular, and their headbands were more or less stained. But this nephew of Xiao Jue was different. His clothes were brand new and fragrant, and his headband was also clean and new, just like his uncle who had a cleanliness fetish. I think it would be much cleaner to use.
Maybe it's cleaner than He Yan's own clothes. As she tied the hairband, she thought, sure enough, it even has a faint scent of pine.
What a fastidious young master, He Yan sighed in his heart, they are indeed uncle and nephew.
"He Yan, what are you going to do?" Wang Ba asked with a frown. He had a guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to admit it.
"Let's have a blindfolded archery competition," she said.
The martial arts arena gradually became quiet. The summer breeze blew, blowing the long ends of her hairband behind her head, making the young man in red clothes look a bit elegant. She also had a smile on her lips, holding a longbow, and pointed in the direction of Wang Ba, "This round, I will definitely beat you."
She said these four words lightly and decisively, as if she had already anticipated the ending.
Wang Ba's face turned pale and changed several times. Before he could speak, someone spoke first, with a tone full of doubt, "Blindfolded archery, what are you shooting at? A straw target?"
He Yan shook her head and raised it slightly. She covered her eyes and should not be able to see the sky, but when she raised her head, she seemed to be able to see the traces of a tit flying in the sky. She said, "Same as before, hunting tits."
The crowd roared.
She is so conceited, but is this really conceited?
He Yan turned around and faced Wang Ba. She asked with a smile, "Is it okay?"
Is it okay? Just like when Coach Liang asked her, she answered "yes" readily. Now, the word "yes" has reached the tip of her tongue, but Wang Ba can't say it.
Whether he was a bandit or went up the mountain to hunt and kill people, it was all for a purpose. He was not blind and doing blindfolded archery was meaningless, and he was not a rich kid who was just playing for fun. If he was very confident in his bow and crossbow skills, then the competition method proposed by He Yan was the one he was least confident in.
He can't do it at all.
Wang Ba looked at He Yan, but He Yan did not urge him to give him the result. But the new recruits around him also looked at him with various eyes, which made Wang Ba feel that he was in a difficult situation. Could it be that he would be humiliated by a yellow-haired boy here in front of everyone today, and then he would be accused of being the leader of a mountain bandit and not daring to respond to the words of a child?
"Okay!" He gritted his teeth and said. But he felt a little lucky. Maybe He Yan was also deceiving him. This kid was always cunning and evil. He might not be able to do it himself. But he deliberately pretended to be very confident, just to trick him into giving up and admitting defeat before him.
Hey, he won’t be fooled!
"You go first in this round!" Wang Ba said to him.
The young man smiled again. She nodded gracefully and said two words, "Okay."
…
Next to the flagpole at the martial arts arena, there is a pavilion next to the Liangzhou Guard Station. The pavilion is located on a high ground and offers a panoramic view of the martial arts arena.
Two people stood in front of the attic railing, looking from afar at the young man who was surrounded by the new recruits.
The man wearing a red outfit and a black cloth belt around his waist was Shen Han. The young man next to him was as cold as ice and snow, with an indifferent expression. He was Xiao Jue.
"I didn't expect that there would be two such good talents among this batch of soldiers." Shen Han sighed, "Let's not talk about Wang Ba. Although he was born a bandit and is unruly and difficult to tame, his bow and crossbow are indeed very sophisticated and he has great strength. But the most surprising thing is the young man named He Yan. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he is so outstanding. He has a gentle and lovable temperament. After growing up for a few more years, he will definitely become the best among this batch of new soldiers."
He thought about his previous conversation with Liang Ping. Liang Ping was very optimistic about He Yan at that time, but Shen Han didn't take it seriously. In fact, he thought He Yan's qualifications were too ordinary and not worth paying attention to. He didn't expect that he almost missed a good seedling.
Seeing that Xiao Jue did not respond, he cautiously asked, "What do you think, Governor?"
"Gentle?" The young man repeated slowly. After a moment, he sneered, "You may have made a mistake. The unruly one is not Wang Ba, but He Yan."
He Yan? Shen Han was a little skeptical. He had seen the boy several times before, and he always had a smile on his face. Wang Ba had provoked him several times, but he had never gotten angry. To be honest, kids of this age are just hot-blooded and would fight over a disagreement. For He Yan to be like this, he was already very cultured and gentle.
The governor actually said that He Yan was unruly and difficult to tame? For the first time, Shen Han began to doubt the vision of his superior.
"Then..." Shen Han changed the subject, "Does the Governor think that He Yan can win this round?"
The young man curled his lips and spoke in a faint voice.
"able."
