The formula of gunpowder was not used in any way, and Yan Liqiang was not disappointed, but quickly accepted this reality. On the contrary, for some reason, Yan Liqiang felt relieved in his heart, and he saw more clearly his future path.

A world where thermal weapons can never be possessed may not be a bad thing. When going down the mountain, Yan Liqiang thought in his heart that there are no thermal weapons in this world, and at the same time, this world lacks the necessary conditions for producing and using electricity, which means that there will be no atomic bombs or nuclear weapons in the future. There are so many strange things that can allow humans to easily destroy themselves. Of course, there will be no so many pollutions and diseases...

When it becomes more and more difficult to kill a person, it means that the possibility of human beings destroying themselves is decreasing, and the cost of slaughtering each other is increasing. There is nothing wrong with this, isn’t it?

From the perspective of productivity development, the peak of the future productivity development in this world is equivalent to the first industrial revolution on earth. The utilization of steam and the invention of steam engines may be the most powerful force that humans in this world can conquer nature.

The principle of the steam engine is actually not complicated.

When Yan Liqiang thought of the steam engine, the 3D animation of the steam engine structure principle he saw on the Internet in his previous life appeared in his mind.

Yan Liqiang, who was walking on the mountain road, shook his head.

He came to this world not to be a craftsman. In fact, the craftsman has a high status in this world. Even if he takes out the design drawings of the steam engine now, the drawings will not make much sense to him and cannot change anything. There is no such thing as invention patents in this world. If the steam engine is really useful, it can be imitated by others after buying it, and it has nothing to do with him. Perhaps the wealth brought to him by the drawings of the steam engine is not as good as one-tenth of the rewards given to him by the Lu family.

One hundred taels of gold is a huge wealth for any craftsman. At least Yan Liqiang has never heard of any craftsman who invented something and can get a reward of hundreds of taels of gold. For Yan Liqiang now, a few hundred taels of gold cannot solve the real problems he has to face, and it is even more impossible for the Hong family and him to turn enemies into friends.

Therefore, in this world that is always destined to be ruled by cold weapons, if you want to do well in this world, avoid being mermaid meat, and have the ability to protect yourself, the most important thing is to practice, and practice is the king!

When he was down to the foot of the mountain, it happened that Yan Liqiang met the sergeant in the morning again. It seemed that the sergeant was also preparing to go back to the cafeteria for dinner.

"Hahaha, brothers, it's a coincidence..." Yan Liqiang smiled and took the initiative to say hello to the sergeant.

"Ah, how is Mr. Yan practicing?"

Yan Liqiang deliberately rubbed his shoulders with a frown, "Brother Zhou's horned python bow is too strong. I can't pull it after only a few times. It seems that I have to take it slowly..."

"Hahaha, this is a five-stone strong bow. Young Master Yan can pull it open now. It's already amazing..." The captain of the sergeant who spoke looked at the horned python bow that Yan Liqiang was carrying enviously, "I believe that Major General Yan will be able to fully exert the power of this horned python bow in the future. Brothers, don't you?"

"Yes!" A bunch of sergeants burst into laughter.

"Thank you, brothers Ji Yan, let's go, let's go, let's go and have dinner..."

"Hahaha……"

...

After lunch, Yan Liqiang continued to return to the mountain.

In order to verify the formula of gunpowder, he had wasted a whole morning. Now what should be proved has been proved and what should be clear has been clear. Yan Liqiang naturally returned to the track of cultivation and started practicing harder.

Say less nonsense...

Yan Liqiang gave himself a refreshing muscle cleaning meridian under the scorching sun.

After practicing the exercises once, Yan Liqiang felt that his whole body was washed by the spiritual energy and energy of heaven and earth. After completing the exercises, he felt refreshed and energetic. What’s even more strange is that even under the scorching sun, in addition to sweating, Yan Liqiang did not feel hot, but instead felt the feeling of wind in both axillary axillary.

It's time to perform the real technique... cough... cough...

Yan Liqiang, who had finished warming up with Yijin marrow washing, then opened the bow bag, took out the horned python bow, and began to practice archery.

Bows and arrows are definitely the most powerful weapons in the era of cold weapons, no doubt about them.

Once on Earth, the Mongols, with a population of two or three million and a total of only hundreds of thousands, swept across the entire Eurasian continent with their iron hooves under their crotch and bows and arrows on their hands, destroyed countless countries, and established the Yuan Empire with the widest territory in human history.

As long as you have the strength to shoot arrows, a rash man can easily kill people dozens of meters away, and it is hard to defend against. This is the power of bows and arrows, which is also incomparable to any other weapon.

In the Silver Continent, archery is called the bow Tao. After advancing to warriors, bow Tao is the first of the six arts. Because the way of practicing bow Tao is different from ordinary martial arts, many people even rank the bow Tao cultivation and martial arts cultivation. Some extreme people even believe that the importance of bow Tao is far above martial arts, which shows the importance of bow Tao.

When an unknown danger is approaching you quickly and someone wants to kill you, there are two choices in front of you. One is to find a master to practice martial arts, go to exercise, and learn Sanda martial arts. The second choice is to pick up the rifle or pistol in front of you and learn to shoot. Which one would you choose?

Yan Liqiang would choose the second one without hesitation, because the second one is the fastest and most powerful, so this is also the reason why he chose to start learning archery today.

Archery is a way to transform a person's power into lethality in the most efficient way. At this point, no martial arts can surpass it.

Yan Liqiang has nothing else now, he just has strength.

Practicing archery in the mountains and forests does not require any targets, you just need to find a big tree at will.

Yan Liqiang's goal is a big tree thirty meters away from him. The trunk of the big tree is as thick as a man hugging it. It looks a little thicker than a human body. And behind the big tree is a slope and grass. The arrows will not hurt people after they are shot, and there is no need to run too far to pick it up. It is the most suitable for practicing archery.

The first arrow, Yan Liqiang pulled a full bow. He aimed at the trunk in the distance, loosened his hand, and the bowstring of the horned python bow shook. Only a slight "swoosh" sound broke through the air was heard in his ear, and the arrow had already flew out, as fast as lightning, and disappeared in an instant...

The arrow shot really disappeared because Yan Liqiang's eyesight could not capture the trace of the first arrow shot. He didn't even know where the arrow shot, but he just felt that it was empty, because after he shot it, the trunk of the tree as the target was still empty and nothing.

The first arrow was shot empty, and the horned python bow was pulled too full and its power was too great. There was no need to fill the bow within such a close distance.

When shooting the second arrow, Yan Liqiang learned from the first arrow and only pulled the bow to about one-third of the position. Another arrow was shot. After the arrow of the second arrow was shot, it was still difficult to catch with the naked eye and its speed was still fast. However, Yan Liqiang still saw the arrow flying from the left of the trunk of the big tree and sank into the haystack on the slope behind it.

Yan Liqiang adjusted a little more, and the third arrow shot out...

This arrow is a little to the right.

The fourth arrow, go to the left again...

The fifth arrow, rubbed through the tree trunk...

For Yan Liqiang, archery is a completely strange enjoyment. When shooting every arrow, no matter whether the arrow hits the target or not, Yan Liqiang's heart will have a warm and peaceful joy. The arrows flying out of his hands are like birds that he opened a cage and released into the sky, or like small fish and loaches he bought from the fishing market and put into rivers and lakes. As long as he can watch these things return to freedom from his own hands, this itself is already a kind of enjoyment and satisfaction, just like a spiritual massage.

In Yan Liqiang's eyes, the lifeless horned python bow and cold arrow seemed to gradually become a life with warm body temperature when he started to pick up their first arrow, which naturally made him feel close.

...

The eighth arrow shot out, and finally, with a "snatch", the arrow of the arrow finally nailed to the trunk like a nail. The entire arrow was immersed in the trunk, and only the arrow shaft was still trembling after hitting the target...

The ninth arrow hits the target again, the tenth arrow hits the target still...

The first pot of arrows was thirty-six. Except for the seven arrows in front that did not hit the target, the twenty-nine arrows behind all hit the trunk and were firmly nailed to the trunk.

This archery didn't seem too difficult. Yan Liqiang muttered in his heart, walked over, and took back all the arrows he shot.

The arrows shot on the trunk must be cooperated with a knife to dig out the arrow. When the seven arrows shot on the soil slope behind were found, six of them were found. Yan Liqiang's first arrow was shot because of the great power, and the entire arrow completely disappeared into the soil slope. There was only a little feather at the tail of the arrow feather, which was still exposed. When Yan Liqiang wanted to pull it out, he found that the shaft of the arrow had already broken...

...

After all, the strong bow of Wushi is the strong bow of Wushi. After shooting thirty-six arrows, even though it was not full of bows, Yan Liqiang still felt that his arms were a little sore and his strength was consumed a lot. He ran to the mountain spring next to him, drank a little clear and sweet mountain spring, and rested for a while before continuing to practice archery...

In the second exercise, all thirty-five arrows shot onto the trunk thirty meters away, and no arrow was off the target and shot it in a crooked manner...
Chapter completed!
