Chapter 21 Get what you want

Zhou Yong said it right. It is indeed not difficult to learn archery, at least it is not as difficult as relying on a driver's license.

Even if a person who has never learned to shoot archery, he can still shoot the arrow out, while a person who has learned can shoot archery better. This better place is in the following aspects: standing, holding the bow, tying the arrow, pulling the string, pushing the bow, opening the bow, filling the bow, leaning on the position, aiming, and scattering. There are only ten steps and actions in total.

These movements are like playing golf or tennis. They have a set of tried and honed rules and techniques. These techniques are not complicated and are even simpler than learning a set of radio gymnastics from beginning to end. Usually, it is said that you put the bow on your hand and try it and someone corrects it. It is not difficult.

It took only ten minutes in total. With Zhou Yong on the side, Yan Liqiang could learn it almost as soon as he learned it. He quickly remembered the key points of the ten movements of archery, which made Zhou Yong praise him.

After mastering the basic principles of archery, Yan Liqiang spent the whole morning hanging out with Zhou Yong with the soldiers in the barracks of the soldiers, practicing archery, observing the sergeant gun formation practice, and exchanging experiences in martial arts and practicing with everyone.

Many soldiers asked Yan Liqiang for tips on horse stance. Yan Liqiang did not hide his own personal information. In addition to not telling everyone the Yijin and Marrow Cleansing Sutra, he calmly shared with everyone some of his feelings when passing the horse stance, such as the state of breathing, the floating and sinking spiritual experience, and the feeling of tightness on the outside and looseness on the inside when passing the level. He communicated with everyone, which benefited many soldiers a lot and were very grateful to Yan Liqiang. You must know that these things are not something you can learn from anywhere in this era.

In the blink of an eye, the morning passed. When the sound of lunch was heard, Yan Liqiang came to the cafeteria with everyone. After lunch, Yan Liqiang said goodbye to Zhou Yong and others. He returned to the small courtyard where he lived, came to the attic hut where he lived, closed the door, took out the bow bag that Zhou Yong gave him, put it on the table, then opened the bow bag, took out the horned python bow inside, and admired it carefully.

This horned python bow is shorter than the long bow bag, but it also looks very prestigious. When held in the hand, it is heavy and very weighty, giving people a very down-to-earth feeling.

When he was in the camp in the morning, Yan Liqiang was always very calm. In fact, after getting this horned python bow from Zhou Yong, Yan Liqiang's little heart kept pounding, making him so excited that he couldn't do it.

This is a horned python bow, an extraordinary horned python bow!

Coincidentally, in the last life, he was on Earth. Just the month when he broke up with Lu Jiaying, Yan Liqiang happened to have contact with bow and arrows. One of his clients liked archery, so he invested in a bow and Taoist club in the city where he was. Once, Yan Liqiang visited that client, and the client took Yan Liqiang to play in the bow and Taoist club for a while. Since then, Yan Liqiang has become obsessed with archery.

Before he came into contact with archery, Yan Liqiang had contact with other sports, golf, tennis, basketball, etc., but he was not very interested. But for some reason, from the beginning of contact with archery, Yan Liqiang fell in love with the feeling of arrows flying out of his hands.

For Yan Liqiang, the moment the bow and arrow flew out of his hand, his heart was always filled with tranquility joy. He felt that he was not shooting an arrow, but like watching a prisonered bird fly out of his hand. From then on, he was free, the sea was wide and the sky was everywhere, and there were all kinds of forests.

Yan Liqiang didn’t know if this feeling was Zen or if he had psychological problems.

It was the first time I went to the bow club. There was no coach on the arrow. Yan Liqiang took a pulley bow handed to him by the client and shot a few arrows crookedly. It felt like he had taken poison and could not extricate himself from now on.

The membership fee for joining the Gongdao Club was 150,000 yuan. The client was only a high-end member. Yan Liqiang, who was short of money, could only hide the joy and throbbing in his heart. He did not tell anyone, but just quietly added another content to his life's goal list.

Unfortunately, before he could realize his life goals, he was reborn.

...

Yan Liqiang gently stroked the black bow body, and his mood was even more excited than when he touched Lu Jiaying for the first time. The black bow body was smooth, delicate, full of texture, and there were circles of spiral strange patterns. When touching his hands, he felt like he touched metal.

In the eyes of many people, a horned python bow is more than a bow, just like a Rolex is more than a watch.

The general production of a qualified war bow requires dry, horn, tendon, glue, silk, lacquer and other materials. Not only is the material expensive, but the production process is even more complicated, but it also takes into account the influence of various weather conditions and climates. In winter, the stem of bow is analyzed and the horn is treated in spring; in summer, the tendon is treated in autumn, the materials are closed, and the bow arm is placed in the bow box in the cold winter, and the appearance is repaired when the cold winter is extremely cold. It takes at least three years to complete a war bow, which also determines that the price of a qualified war bow will be very expensive.

However, the horned python bow is more expensive than the battle bow made using this process. This is expensive, not just because the entire bow body of the horned python bow is naturally integrated and not something artificially processed.

The bow of the horned python bow is the head of the entire horned python.

The horned python is a kind of strange beast that only exists in this world. Compared with ordinary pythons, the head of the horned python will have a pair of long horns that are like cow horns. The pair of long horns and heads are connected to the head, just like a graceful and slender bow body. Because of this reason, the horned python has the name of the horned python.

The pair of horn-like things born on the head of the horn python are different from those produced on the heads of other animals. The two horns on the head of the horn python are completely connected to the bones on the top of its head, completely integrated and extremely strong. In addition to being strong, its two horns are also full of strong toughness and elasticity. Under powerful forces, their two horns will deform, but instantly, as soon as the power is released, their two horns will bounce back to their original position.

The characteristic of the double horns on the head of the horn python is even better than the bow body of the war bow made by the human bow. It is precisely this characteristic that the head of the horn python becomes the best material for making the horn python's bow body, and the python tendons of the horn python become the best bow string to match it.

It can be said that in the eyes of many people, a horned python is almost equivalent to a good bow.

The horned python lives in the wilderness. Not only is there a small number, but it is also very dangerous and aggressive. For three or five ordinary people, even if they hold weapons, they can only escape when they encounter horned pythons. In this case, the value of a horned python bow can be imagined, and they often cost more than 100 taels of gold.

Yan Liqiang could not have imagined that Zhou Yong would have such a good bow in his hands.

Holding such a good bow, Yan Liqiang couldn't put it down and his eyes swept over the bow inch by inch.

The bow and bow string of this horned python bow were carefully processed by craftsmen. The complete horned python skull could no longer be seen in the handle in the middle of the arch, and it was intercepted. It was covered with a layer of anti-slip leather, and a layer of tight silver wire was wrapped around the leather. The depression in the eye socket of the horned python skull was just turned into an arrow table after treatment, and the bow buckle at the tip of the bow was also wrapped in metal to facilitate the fixing of the bow string.

At first glance, the entire bow is very exquisite.

In addition to these, at different positions of the bow arms similar to cow horns at both ends, there are five beautiful dark red patterns. The patterns are not added by craftsmen, but are like the age on the trunk, representing the age of the horn python. Since a horn python was born, it was said that a circle of patterns will only be born on both corners every four years. The five circles of patterns represent the age of the horn python being twenty, and it also happens to represent this is a strong bow of five stones.

Every four years the horned python grows, its biangs have stronger toughness and elasticity, and it requires greater strength to pull it apart. Unfortunately, this power just now probably needs one stone.

Looking at the five circles of patterns, Yan Liqiang could only sigh for the horned python. You said that you are a good python, the horns on your head can be used as a bow body, the tendons on your body can be used as strings, and even the patterns that record your growth age can be used as a label for bow strength. How can you let others go?

Zhou Yong said that he could not pull the strong five-stone bow, so Yan Liqiang was naturally embarrassed to show off in front of Zhou Yong, so he used other bows when shooting archery in the camp just now, only two stones.

Thirty kilograms are one jin, and four jin is one stone. Each stone is one hundred and twenty kilograms, which is sixty kilograms. A strong bow of five stones is required to pull at least three hundred kilograms of strength in your hand. It is impossible to pull such a bow to an ordinary person.

After carefully playing with the horned python bow in his hand for a while, Yan Liqiang stood up, held the bow handle with his left hand, pulled the string with his right hand, took a deep breath, exhaled and opened the sound, supported his left hand, pulled the back with his right hand, and the strength on his legs, waist, and back was simultaneously stimulating, and the horned python bow was slowly pulled by Yan Liqiang.

After the horse stance was successful, Yan Liqiang had a rhino dragon horse's strength. The powerful bow of the five stones was not difficult, but just happened to be.

The bow was loose, and the sound of the thunderous sound of the air in the room exploded, like a firecracker...

"Hahaha..." Thinking that he actually got what he wanted here today, Yan Liqiang laughed in the room, extremely happy.

After trying the horned python bow, Yan Liqiang put the horned python bow back and put it in the bow bag, and the bow bag was placed in the room. Anyway, this yard is the most important place in the entire marshalling and mechanical camp. Countless people are staring at it, and no outsiders can come in in the marshalling and mechanical camp, so there is no need to worry about putting this bow here.
