Chapter 65 Finding Faults

After three rounds of wine, the dishes were full of flavors.

"Master Fang, I heard that you are only eighteen years old this year?"

When they were enjoying the wine, Luo Kezhao suddenly looked at Fang Zhixing and asked indifferently.

Fang Zhixing was slightly shocked, and he cheered up and replied: "To answer the second young master, I am eighteen years old."

Luo Kezhao nodded and said loudly: "You are good at archery, which is obvious to all, and everyone is convinced.

However, knowing archery does not necessarily mean that you can teach others. This requires a lot of experience.

And in terms of accumulated experience, you don't have any at all."

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly became quiet and the atmosphere suddenly changed.

Ding Zhigang, Lu Anfu and others put down their wine glasses one by one, restrained their smiles, and sat upright.

Luo Peiyun played with the wine glass and looked down at the delicacies in front of him.

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Second Young Master, what you said is that being able to do something yourself and teaching others are two completely different things.

However, since you trust me so much, I will do my best to teach you everything I know, and I will never disappoint you."

Luo Kezhao snorted and sneered, "Everyone can talk big, but how do you plan to teach others? Show us a rule."

Fang Zhixing remained calm and asked, "How is Second Young Master's archery?"

"Me?"

Luo Kezhao was stunned for a moment, then hesitated, "I mainly practice martial arts, and I don't practice archery much."

Fang Zhixing smiled and said, "If Second Young Master doesn't mind, I would like to teach you some archery on the spot, how about it?"

"This..."

Luo Kezhao hesitated, glanced at Luo Peiyun next to him, and stood up and said sternly, "Okay, I'll give you a chance. But if you can't teach me, you can stop being a coach."

Fang Zhixing smiled faintly.

Then, three servants brought props, including bows, arrows, targets for archery practice, and a scarecrow.

Fang Zhixing had seen this thing on the training ground. Archers drew their bows and shot arrows at the scarecrow.

The hall was about thirty meters long!

The scarecrow was placed at the door.

Luo Kezhao picked up an arrow, put it on the bow, and asked, "How do you want to teach me?"

Fang Zhixing replied, "Please shoot an arrow for me first, second young master."

Luo Kezhao immediately raised the longbow, pulled it to the full, aimed, and released it!

Whoosh!

The arrow flew forward for a distance, passed by the scarecrow, and fell outside.

It was too far away.

This Luo Kezhao's archery skills were terrible.

Fang Zhixing sneered in his heart.

Speaking of which, he had seen more than one person shoot arrows, each with his own posture.

However, no one adopted a standard archery stance. Everyone relied on their feelings and did whatever was comfortable.

In other words, this world has no popular science books like "Archery Classics". People are ignorant and do not know the best standing posture.

Archery can be done either standing or on horseback.

The most important key point of standing archery is the standing posture.

Unfortunately, people in this world do not understand.

"That's great!"

Fang Zhixing was calm and commented openly: "Second Master has good arm strength and good physical condition. You only need to improve two points to greatly improve your archery skills."

Luo Kezhao did not believe it and asked in surprise: "Which two points?"

Fang Zhixing said seriously: "One is your standing posture. The standing posture of archery requires 'not Ding, not Ba'."

Luo Kezhao frowned and did not understand. He shouted: "Not Ding, not Ba, what is that?"

Fang Zhixing walked forward and asked Luo Kezhao to stand upright, with his feet apart at the same width as his shoulders, and at the same time facing the bull's eye sideways, so that the extension line of the two shoulders pointed directly to the bull's eye.

This is not over yet.

The front foot must be moved back half a foot, and the extension line of the front toe and the hips should also point to the center of the target.

Once this standing posture is adjusted, it immediately gives people a brand new feeling.

Very cool!

Everyone looked at it carefully and immediately realized that there were many tricks in it, which were worth savoring.

Fang Zhixing smiled and said, "This is the standing posture that is neither Ding nor Ba. It is neither Ding nor Ba!"

Luo Peiyun twisted his beard, nodded repeatedly, and showed an appreciative smile.

Luo Kezhao felt that it was not good. He found that Fang Zhixing was really good, and asked impatiently, "What about the second point?"

Fang Zhixing smiled, raised his hand to slightly support the bow and arrow, adjusted the crosshairs a little bit upwards, and smiled, "Please shoot the arrow, second young master."

Luo Kezhao was skeptical and let go of his hand.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew through the air, fell on the scarecrow, and sank into the chest.

Hit!

"Hey, there really is something!"

Iron Claw Ye Hengchang couldn't help but exclaimed.

Everyone nodded in succession.

"Good!"

Luo Peiyun was overjoyed and laughed: "Coach Fang is not only an excellent archer, but also knows how to teach. I really didn't make a mistake in him!"

Fang Zhixing said: "It's all thanks to your cultivation!"

Ding Zhigang immediately flattered him: "Your Excellency has a keen eye for talent!"

Lu Anfu was unwilling to lag behind and smiled: "Your Excellency has a unique eye for talent. We are inferior to you and admire you."

After a round of flattery, Luo Peiyun's mood couldn't help but get better. His face was very happy and his eyebrows were full of joy.

Luo Kezhao was a little confused. Looking at the scarecrow he shot, the expression on his face was very wonderful.

After a while, he dropped the bow and arrow and said loudly: "This is nothing great. I have seen this kind of standing posture a long time ago, but I didn't know it was called Fei Ding Fei Ba."

He rolled his eyes and suddenly said to Luo Peiyun: "Dad, you formed the archery battalion to form a capable army. The target is dead, but the people are alive. Even if your archery skills are better, it is not necessarily Just because you can shoot someone doesn’t necessarily mean you have good combat power. Therefore, I have a suggestion.”

Luo Peiyun was silent for a moment and asked with a smile: "What proposal?"

Luo Kezhao continued: "Instructor Fang randomly selected ten archers to train for ten days. I recommend an expert, and he randomly selected ten archers to train. After ten days, we will have a competition on the school field."

Luo Peiyun thought for a while and asked, "Both sides have ten shooters. How can we determine the outcome through a competition?"

Luo Kezhao said with a smile: "It's very simple, just let them shoot the rabbits running around. Whoever shoots more rabbits in the same time will win!"

After hearing this, Luo Peiyun turned to Fang Zhixing and asked with a smile: "Coach Fang, do you dare to accept the challenge?"

Fang Zhixing continued: "Of course, I am willing to accept any test from the Lord and the Second Young Master."

Luo Peiyun was very satisfied and nodded: "Okay, then the competition will start tomorrow. Ding Zhigang and Wen Yuwen, you two will supervise and ensure that this competition is fair and just."

"Yes, sir!" Ding Zhigang and Wen Yuwen said in unison.

Soon, the banquet was over.

Luo Peiyun and Luo Kezhao left the table first.

"Oh, I'm drunk." Ding Zhigang stood up, staggered, and quickly left the hall.

This guy should have a good drinking capacity, and with the county magistrate present, he wouldn't dare to get drunk.

Now he started pretending to be drunk.

Damn, he really knows how to act...

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing knew it well, so he caught up with Lu Anfu and said with a smile: "Palace Master Lu, I will see you off."

"Thank you." Lu Anfu smiled slightly and did not refuse the man thousands of miles away.

Fang Zhixing sent Lu Anfu all the way to the gate, and then asked: "Second Young Master doesn't seem to like me very much. Does Hall Master Lu know the reason?"

Lu Anfu lowered his voice and said carefully: "The master has three wives and concubines, and each of them gave birth to a son.

The eldest son and the third son were very talented in martial arts, so the master sent them to the county town to learn martial arts.

Only the second young master was less qualified and stayed in the mansion to learn martial arts.

The second wife's natal family is the Dong family, one of the three richest families in the city. The Dong family has always wanted to place members of the clan into government officials.

For example, Ding Zhigang is the chief catcher. He has four catchers under him, two of whom are members of the Dong family. They were forced in through nepotism.

Another example is that most of the infantry leaders under Commander Luo Kezhao were children of the Dong family.

Therefore, the Dong family is bound to win your three hundred archer camp. "
