Chapter 264: A Hundred Steps Through Yang
Ruan Lei smiled and said, "I understand, I understand, this is called "weak water will not flow from outsiders." Since the generals look down on them so much, I think they will be of great use. I will see you tomorrow morning, open your eyes, and then test them.
Are they really qualified to join our Lion Fire Army?”
Jiang Lie smiled and said, "That's right, and the village chief said he would do his best to encourage young and middle-aged people on the mountain to join the army and serve the country. Since he wanted to join the army and serve the country, it would be better to let them all join our Lion Flame Army."
Ruan Lei grinned: "It's you, the handsome man. This is too thief. He will bring his strong men under his command."
Jiang Lie shook his head and smiled, "You can't say that you are a thief. Anyway, we will help them defend their country. It is natural to recruit some of their troops. It is both reasonable and reasonable, and there is nothing wrong with it."
As they said that, they laughed together and leaned back and forth.
The next afternoon, Jiang Lie invited Ji Cheng and Ji Ping to the headquarters tent and handed them a cup of hot tea. In the Lion Flame Army, which usually prohibits alcohol, tea is indispensable, so no matter what you arrive.
Wherever there are, the best tea leaves are part of the Lion Flame Army's baggage.
"This is the general of the Lion Fire Armour Army of our Lion Fire Army, who is also the headquarter general Ruan Lei and General Ruan." Jiang Lie pointed to Ruan Lei beside him and introduced.
"Let's go down to Ruan Lei." Ruan Lei stood up and saluted to show his identity as a soldier.
Jiang Lie smiled and said, "I still don't know. Is it Ji Cheng or Ji Ping who can't catch up with me? Now can you tell me the answer?"
"It's me." Ji Cheng and one of Ji Ping's people giggled.
However, Jiang Lie still didn't know whether it was Ji Cheng or Ji Ping who said "it was me".
After blinking a few times, Jiang Lie asked embarrassedly and politely: "Then are you Ji Cheng or Ji Ping?"
"I am Ji Ping." Ji Ping replied, scratching his head.
Jiang Lie smiled helplessly and shook his head: "Is there any way I can accurately distinguish between you two brothers?"
Ji Cheng beside Ji Ping nodded: "Marrior Jiang, there is still a way. Look carefully. There is a difference between my brother's chin and me."
Jiang Lie's eyes swayed back and forth, and finally found the clue - Ji Cheng's chin was clean, while Ji Ping's fair chin had a not-so-conspicuous black mole. Now Jiang Lie finally realized it.
It is not too difficult to distinguish these two brothers. Just remember that those with ambition will succeed, and those with a mole will be judged.
"Is this mole the only difference between you two?" Jiang Lie immediately became interested.
Ji Cheng shook his head and said, "In terms of external appearance, this mole of my brother is indeed the only difference between us brothers, but if we want to talk about other aspects, the difference between us is not just a mole.
”
"Oh?" Jiang Lie said excitedly, "How do you say this?"
Ji Ping quickly answered: "Although my brother and I were born on the same day of the same year, month and day, and we look almost the same, but we are actually very different in personality. If you become familiar with us, you will naturally recognize us at a glance.
It’s like this, the villagers are familiar with us, and they will never admit their mistakes no matter what. Maybe the temperaments we exude are completely different."
Ruan Lei smiled and said, "Since it's so interesting, I can't wait to open my eyes and see what abilities you two brothers have."
While talking, Jiang Lie and Ruan Lei led the Ji brothers to a clearing ground, attracting many soldiers and villagers to watch.
Ji Cheng smiled and said, "General Ruan, what do you want to see? Even if you speak, show it to you whatever we can."
Ruan Lei kept smiling: "You have been hunting since childhood. You may often need to hit rabbits, pheasants, and some cunning prey that runs fast, so you must be perfect for archery shooting, and I don't
What difficulty will increase to you? If we don’t play, we will shoot the target. If we don’t play, we will shoot the target. What do you think of the two little brothers?”
"Target shooting?" Ji Ping laughed, "General Ruan looks down on us brothers a little bit. It would be too easy to let us shoot a target!"
"I can't find anything that can move for you to shoot for a while. It's okay, shooting a target can also open our eyes." Ruan Lei said, "Come on, get on the target!"
Several soldiers immediately brought two targets and pasted the target paper.
Ji Ping looked around and said, "General Ruan, we didn't bring any bows or arrows. Why don't we go home first and take the bows and arrows, and you can wait for a while."
Ruan Lei quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, you don't need to go home to pick it up. I have prepared a good bow and a good arrow for you. Everything is ready. Come on, give these two people.
Little brother, I’ll send you a bow and arrow!"
After a while, Ji Cheng and Ji Ping hung up the quiver and pulled the bowstring to adapt to the feel.
Ruan Leilang said: "The archer shooter is fifteen feet away from the target. Each person shoots ten arrows. The ten arrows are shot at one time. There must be no time interval except for taking arrows, placing arrows and aiming at the target!"
Although he has long been accustomed to the living habits of this world and this era, every time Jiang Lie encounters some ancient unique units, he will silently convert that unit into a modern international general unit that he is more familiar with: on the bone-eating continent
The 1000 zhang is about three meters and three meters of an international unit, which means that the distance of fifteen zhang is equivalent to fifty meters.
The distance of fifteen feet of archery is not far away, but not near. In fact, hitting a static target is not necessarily easier than hitting an animal in motion. After all, if you hit an animal or an enemy, the purpose is to hit it and shoot it.
The key part is to kill it, and shooting it into a non-critical part is also to injure it. As long as it hits the other party, it will be considered as achieving its goal.
However, if you shoot an archery target, the purpose is not just to hit the target, but to make the arrow finally nail as close as possible to the bull's eye. Moreover, the size of the target paper is only twice that of the face of a normal adult.
Little by little, in Jiang Lie's eyes, who rarely uses bows and arrows, aiming at the target outside the target is a very difficult challenge.
Even so, Ji Cheng and Ji Ping were still chatting and laughing freely, looking at ease, without showing any psychological pressure.
Ji Cheng and Ji Ping's movements were abnormally synchronized, just like a mirror between them, and one of them was like the other reflected in the mirror.
call out--
After the first arrow was shot, everyone present stared at the target, all of whom were dumbfounded.
Both arrows were exactly the same as they were unbiased, just like they were just the same as the bull's-eye.
Especially the crossbowmen present, they couldn't help but feel ashamed, because when they shoot archery and targets in their daily training, the first arrow often deviates from the bull's eye, and even fails to hit the target is a common thing.
Generally speaking, they need to shoot two to three more arrows to gradually find the sense of direction and sight.
However, Ji Cheng and Ji Ping both hit the bull's eye with the first arrow, which is something that most of the well-trained crossbowmen from regular army present could not do.
If one arrow can be called accident or luck, then the next nine arrows are even more amazing and praiseworthy.
Although Ji Cheng and Ji Ping did not both hit the bull's eye, and although they also missed, the ones they shot the most in the ten arrows were eight rings, and most of them were just hitting the ten rings.
The twenty arrows that the two men had already shot together were shot. Ruan Lei was stunned for a while before he came to his senses and said loudly: "Come here, count the number of rings!"
According to statistics, the final result was announced - Ji Cheng shot the 95th ring and Ji Ping shot the 96th ring. The full score was only 100 rings.
Ji Ping put down the bow, untied the quiver, shook his head and smiled, "The bullseye is too small to hold ten arrows. There is really no way. I have to shoot a few arrows on purpose, otherwise the arrow will touch the arrow feathers!"
Jiang Lie didn't know whether Ji Ping said it was intentional or false, but he was still sincerely admired him and was overwhelmed with all his heart.
Ruan Lei applauded warmly: "Ji Cheng Ji Pin! You two are really impressive! With your archery level, you have surpassed most of the crossbow soldiers in our Lion Flame Army! At least they have surpassed me!
I was once the top martial arts scholar in the Divine Lion Kingdom, and my technician scores at Shinanwu Imperial College were also the best. Even so, I have never shot such excellent results of 95 rings or above at this distance! You really let me
I opened my eyes!"
With only twenty arrows, it can be regarded as an excellent visual feast. Jiang Lie couldn't help but think: "Maybe this is the legendary master among the people."
Ji Cheng smiled and said, "General Ruan was joking. Bows and arrows are the guys we eat. We can't remember when we started learning this craft. Just like learning to walk and speak, it was a relatively long time.
When we don’t have any memories, we can already shoot arrows. Archery is as important as eating and drinking water. We have to catch prey to have meat to survive the bad season when food is short.
How do you say one sentence? Practice makes perfect, yes, that's the reason!"
Ruan Lei raised his thumbs up: "Now I have seen your mastery of ejaculation, and it has really opened my eyes. I heard that you are omnipotent in hunting and catching fish in the water. Since that's the case, it's better to do this.
Let me show you your skills in the water. I wonder what you two mean by thinking?"
Ji Cheng and Ji Ping smiled at each other and replied in unison: "No problem!"
I did it as soon as I said, and I missed the gossip. Let’s talk about it. Everyone went down the mountain and came to the ferry where the boats were moored at the foot of the mountain.
It was winter at this time, but Ji Cheng and Ji Ping took off all their clothes as soon as they arrived at the ferry, leaving only a pair of close-fitting shorts.
