Chapter 853
For Tang Yin, this seven-stone bow is still light, but if he is picky, he will appear to be too pretentious. Read the full text. He took it with a smile and said, "Thank you very much."
"Ah! Your Highness, King Feng, is so polite." This royal guard was much more polite than the noble disciples. As he spoke, he took off the arrow pot and handed it to Tang Yin.
The arrows in the quiver are all made of steel, and even the arrow feathers at the tail are made of fine steel. Such a steel arrow weighs almost two or three kilograms. If you use an ordinary bow, you can't shoot it. .
After Tang Yin put away all the bows and arrows, Xiao Xiang greeted everyone around him with a smile, and then took the lead in galloping towards the north to read the full text. The aristocratic children followed closely behind, shouting and making long and sharp whistles from time to time.
Tang Yin didn't rush to be first, but still followed leisurely. Sure enough, they ran to the north for a short time before they found a herd of deer. As far as the eye could see, there must be hundreds of deer.
Xiao Xiang and the noble disciples were overjoyed, and they even accelerated their horses and chased forward. The sound of horse hooves soon alarmed the deer, who then fled north. Xiao Xiang twisted his bow and arrow on his horse, spotted a deer lagging behind, and shot an arrow.
Riding and shooting is not an ordinary skill. It requires years of hard work on horses to master. Xiao Xiang's riding and shooting ability is average at best, especially when the horse is running wildly, he loses his accuracy.
She shot three arrows at the deer, but all three arrows missed. When she was about to release the fourth arrow, an arrow suddenly flew from the side and hit the deer's neck.
As soon as there was a splash, the deer fell down immediately, rolled forward a long way before stopping, its hooves twitched, and it fell to the ground.
A young man in his early twenties gave a long laugh and ran forward on horseback. When he got close to Xiaolu, he reined in his horse, then turned back to Xiao Xiang and smiled: "Princess, I'm a little ahead of you!"
Xiao Xiang's teeth were itching, and without even stopping, he urged his horse to run over, looking for the next target.
Soon, the deer ran into the mountain forest. At this time, the speed of the deer slowed down, and the speed of Xiao Xiang and others was also greatly reduced due to the obstruction of the trees.
Taking advantage of the break from tracking the deer herd, Xiao Xiang took a closer look at the noble children. Almost everyone had gained something, but she had gained nothing. How can Xiao Xiang, who has an arrogant temperament and is always competitive, not be anxious.
She speeded up her horse and ran wildly through the mountains and forests without care. The guards behind her were frightened when they saw this, and they all shouted: "Princess, slow down, princess, slow down!"
It is very dangerous to drive fast in the forest. First, there are many trees, and you may hit a tree if you are not careful. Second, there are many grass, vines and rocks, and the horse may be tripped at any time. Whether hitting a tree or tripping, it is life-threatening for riders on horseback.
Xiao Xiang also had a bad temper. He didn't listen to the dissuasion of the guards behind him and just kept working hard.
She didn't know how long she ran away, but she felt that there were fewer and fewer people around her, and she was getting closer and closer to the deer. She raised the corner of her mouth, thinking that no one could beat her this time.
She still had no intention of slowing down her horse. As she was running on horseback, she spotted an adult sika deer lagging behind, nocked an arrow, raised her hand and shot an arrow.
Whoosh! The arrow broke through the wind and made a sharp whistling sound. Only a bang was heard. This arrow hit the deer's butt just in time, but it was not fatal.
The sika deer was in pain and ran faster. Xiao Xiangxiang gritted his teeth in frustration, then accelerated his horse speed and chased after it. When she was riding forward to catch up, there was rapid sound of horse hooves behind her, and the sound got closer and closer. Not long after, a man rode up to catch up. When the two were level, the man reached out his arm. He grabbed her reins, slowed her horse down, and said in a deep voice, "Are you crazy? Do you want to break your neck?"
Xiao Xiang turned around and saw that the person catching up was Tang Yin. She was so anxious that she repeatedly slapped Tang Yin's hand that was holding her reins and said, "Let go, I've already shot the deer, it's going to run away!"
Tang Yin followed her line of sight and looked forward. Sure enough, there was a sika deer flying forward with an arrow hanging from its hip. He narrowed his eyes and asked without any intention of letting go: "Is that sika deer more important or your life?"
"Winning is the most important thing!" Xiao Xiang answered simply. Seeing that she couldn't hold Tang Yin's hand away, she turned to look at him and said, "Why are you holding me back? Go and chase him!"
Tang Yin secretly shook his head, Xiao Xiang was really competitive!
He finally let go of his hand. Xiao Xiang didn't waste a moment and rushed out immediately. However, no matter how fast she was, she couldn't move faster than the arrows flying from behind. There was a whooshing sound, and a bolt of lightning passed by her side, flying straight towards the injured sika deer.
The electric light was impartial, and it was also nailed to the sika deer's buttocks, but the force was too great, and it directly flew the sika deer weighing about 200 kilograms, and then nailed it to an old tree.
Xiao Xiang took a breath, ran closer, and took a closer look. It turned out that what hit the sika deer was a steel arrow. This steel arrow not only penetrated the sika deer's body, but was also deeply embedded in the tree, causing the entire sika deer to be damaged. Hanging from the tree.
After watching for a while, she turned back in disbelief and looked at Tang Yin behind her. It wasn't until Tang Yin came closer on horseback that she asked with a slight stutter: "Did you... shoot this arrow?"
"Is there a third person here?" Tang Yin glanced at Xiao Xiang.
"I don't know, it turns out that your archery skills are so powerful." Xiao Xiang knew that his spiritual martial arts was very strong, but when he saw that he was not very careful when hunting, he thought that he was not good at riding and shooting. Unexpectedly, Tang Yin was deeply Hidden or not, his ability to ride and shoot was as good as any other marksman.
For Tang Yin, archery was just a common skill, nothing to show off. He raised his head to the sika deer nailed to the tree and said, "It is your prey, you can go back now!"
Xiao Xiang rolled her eyes, and suddenly smiled at Tang Yin, and said excitedly: "I only hunted one deer, how could that be possible! Since your archery skills are so good, just hunt a few more!"
Tang Yin smiled helplessly, sat on the horse, looked around, then waved his hand to Xiao Xiang and said, "Follow me!"
His horse was not very fast, but his tracking was extremely accurate. Through the hoof prints left on the ground and the traces of broken grass and vines, he quickly found another lone sika deer. Xiao Xiang didn't even see where the deer was. Tang Yin had already set up a steel arrow on his horse and shot it out.
flutter! Another extremely precise arrow shot a sika deer hidden in the grass to the ground.
It was only at this moment that Xiao Xiang could see clearly. Her eyes were shining and she was so happy that she couldn't help but rush over. She pulled out the steel arrows shot by Tang Yin and replaced them with her own arrows.
She doesn't care about the process, as long as she wins in the end.
With Tang Yin helping her, Xiao Xiang had successfully 'hunted' five deer in less than half an hour. Tang Yin put away his bow and arrows and said, "These deer should be enough for you to win. We should be able to go back now!"
Xiao Xiang nodded with satisfaction, marked the dead deer again, then remounted his horse and walked back side by side with Tang Yin. Not far away, she looked at Tang Yin and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"I'm afraid you won't come to help me until the next hunt."
Tang Yin smiled and said nothing. This time he came patiently, and of course there won't be another time.
"I heard that the hunting ground in Zhenjiang is also very big. If I have the opportunity in the future, I can also go to Zhenjiang to play!" Xiao Xiang's tone was not asking him.
Tang Yin shrugged, noncommittal.
As I was walking forward, I heard rustling in the woods ahead, as if there were many people coming towards me.
Xiao Xiang raised her eyes and looked forward. Sure enough, there was a figure moving in the woods. She curled her lips and muttered: "They found them pretty quickly!" As she spoke, she stretched her neck and waved: "I am here. …”
Before she finished speaking, Tang Yin, who was walking beside her, suddenly turned to the side and threw her off the horse.
Xiao Xiang instinctively screamed and closed her eyes in fear. The horse's back was not high, but if she fell headfirst, and with Tang Yin pressing on her, it was enough to kill her.
thump! The two fell to the ground, but Xiao Xiang did not feel pain. She opened her eyes and saw that Tang Yin was supporting her on the ground with one hand and holding her up with the other hand. Xiao Xiang was shocked and angry, and shouted: "You..."
Pounce, pounce, pounce - she just said one word, and muffled sounds were heard continuously around her. She turned her head and looked again, her face suddenly changed. She saw that her and Tang Yin's horses were like hedgehogs. It is filled with long spiritual spears.
There is an assassin! Xiao Xiang finally realized that the people coming in front were not his own guards at all, but assassins who wanted to kill him! She subconsciously grabbed Tang Yin's clothes and screamed: "There is an assassin! There is an assassin who wants to kill me! What should I do?"
"Shut up!" Tang Yin scolded angrily. He was aware of the murderous intent of the other party, but he didn't know how many people there were. Xiao Xiang's piercing scream was enough to attract all the nearby assassins.
Xiao Xiang wanted to speak again, but the second wave of spirit spears thrown at him arrived again.
Tang Yin had no time to think carefully and pulled away. The moment he retreated, a muffled sound could be heard. Spirit spears were inserted into the ground where the two of them had just stopped. There were dozens of them.
Such a familiar tactic! Tang Yin immediately judged that the tactics of these assassins were almost identical to those of the assassins he encountered in Shengping County.
The assassin is not from Shenchi, but from Sichuan! While Tang Yin's mind was changing rapidly, he picked up Xiao Xiang and backed away.
He retreated quickly, but the speed of the spirit spears thrown by the opponent was not slow. Soon, the spirit spears flew towards Tang Yin and Xiao Xiang's wings, and piercing whistling sounds came one after another.
Tang Yin had no choice but to change the direction of retreat and retreat deeper into the dense forest. Just as he was retreating rapidly, he suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet soften, and then his whole body suddenly sank.
There is a trap! Tang Yin was also startled and broke into a cold sweat. He held Xiao Xiang tightly with his left hand, and exuded spiritual energy with his right hand to cover the spiritual armor. Then without any delay, he aimed at the wall of the trap and inserted it fiercely.
Bang! With this claw, his five fingers were deeply embedded in the soil. Tang Yin was hanging on the wall of the trap with Xiao Xiang between his arms. Looking down, I saw that the bottom of the trap was densely packed with sharpened iron picks. If someone fell in, they would be stabbed into a hornet's nest on the spot.
