Li Yue smiled slightly and said: "This is nothing. Anyone who has practiced bow and arrow for a few days can almost hit the target."

Huang Li shook his head and said: "If it were really that easy, if you rely on the mountains and eat the mountains, wouldn't you have meat to eat every day?"

He has learned a lot about what life is like in the village in the past few days. He can barely eat enough. To say that he eats well is out of the question. Of course, he is also aware of the special preferential treatment given to him.

"Hunting is not an easy thing. Sometimes I come back empty-handed after wandering around for a whole day." Li Yue explained: "I am lucky today. It should be the good luck brought by Mr. Huang."

Huang Li shrugged his shoulders, feeling that Li Yue had gone astray. He was talking about archery, which had nothing to do with luck.

"Mr. Huang, do you want to learn?" Li Yue noticed that Huang Li's eyes were wandering on the bow and arrow, and patted the bow on his back.

Huang Li thought for a while and said with a smile: "There are many arts that don't overwhelm me. My young master is willing to teach me, so I am willing to learn."

Li Yue was very enthusiastic and said: "Let's do it now. Look at my posture, I want it to be like this..."

Huang Li listened attentively, watched carefully, and studied humbly.

"The hand holding the bow mainly uses the thumb and index finger to hold the bow, place the arrow on the curve of the index finger, and the string-pulling hand to open the string with three fingers, and hold the arrow between the index finger and middle finger..."

Li Yue explained and demonstrated at the same time, with his feet spread apart and the soles of his feet between the T-shape and the eight-shape, he pulled the string under his chin and slightly aimed at loosening the string.

Ancient bows did not have a bow window, a scale, an arrow rest, or a sight, which greatly increased the difficulty of accurate shooting.

Li Yue demonstrated and explained twice, then handed the bow to Huang Li with a smile.

Huang Li chuckled twice, stretched out his hand to take it, recalling Li Yue's actions just now in his mind, holding the bow in his left hand, spreading his feet, and pulling the string with three fingers to his chin.

Li Yue pointed and corrected from the side, "If you are tall, please spread your feet further; your shoulder blades should be flatter; take a deep breath when pulling the string, push with the front hand and pull with the back hand, don't use force with one hand..."

Huang Li adjusted his movements according to the instructions and drew the bowstring again.

"After you have reached full draw, turn your face slightly away from the string-pulling hand. You can figure it out by practicing more and more. This is called positioning, and it is one of the two most difficult steps..."

Huang Li practiced it several times, and he didn't stop until Li Yue nodded.

"Mr. Huang has such great strength." Li Yue saw that Huang Li was not tired or out of breath, and his eyes flashed with surprise, and he praised: "The understanding is also high, and the movements are already in shape."

Huang Li grinned twice and said: "My young master taught me well, but I dare not say that I have any understanding. I am stupid and have only a few kilograms of strength."

Li Yue shook his head and said: "Although this Kaiyuan Gong is a soft bow, it still has four or five powers. You haven't mastered all the skills, but you can draw it continuously without losing your breath. It's really amazing."

Could it be that I have a talent as a marksman that was not discovered before and is only revealed now?

Huang Li scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise, and said, "Thank you very much, young master. I am very strong, probably because I can eat."

Li Yue chuckled and walked back to the village with Huang Li, chatting seemingly casually as they walked.

"You're probing me again!" Huang Li cursed. He just answered based on the fabricated story about his overseas travels and his recent return to China. He felt that there were no flaws.

There were already many people who got up early in the village, and they looked so simple. When they met Li Yue and Huang Li along the road, they all saluted respectfully.

There are also some children playing and running around. If you put aside the tragic history, it feels a bit like a paradise.

It's a pity that this place will become a battlefield and ruins, and countless people, including the innocent and lively children that day, will also die in the war.

Huang Li dodged a naughty kid who ran past him. Hearing him giggle, his mood became heavier.

Li Yue sent Huang Li to his residence and handed over the pheasants and hares to the two people who took care of Huang Li. After chatting casually for a while, he said he still had something to do and turned to leave.

When Li Yue returned to the main village and saw his father Li Laiheng, it was already three o'clock in the morning. After listening to his son's story, Li Laiheng, the Duke of Linguo, was silent for a long time in deep thought.

"Father, he revealed his intention to leave today." Li Yue reminded: "What do you think should be done?"

Li Laiheng raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "Invite him here tomorrow. As a father, I want to have a talk with him."

Li Yue asked tentatively: "Father, can you confirm his identity?"

Li Laiheng glanced at Li Yue, pursed his lips, and said: "As a father, I can tell that he has an unusual background. He should be pampered or have a noble status. Even the most common hand gesture seems unfamiliar or even wrong.

What do you think is the reason?"

Li Yue thought for a while and said: "Either he seldom salutes to others, or no one teaches him."

"It's probably because no one dared to teach him." Li Laiheng was very imaginative and felt that he thought more carefully than his son.

If it was the third prince Zhu, he should be the eldest except his father, Chongzhen, who was hanged. Naturally, he would not have to bow down to anyone.

"He can still read. If he was really a scholar, he would not be like this." Li Laiheng continued to use his imagination and said: "If he were a refugee, he would not be so accustomed to delicious food."

Li Laiheng's delicacies are just wine and meat, but for Huang Li, when he traveled around, he ate a lot of delicious food from various places.

As for meat and eggs, they are even more commonplace. Of course, there is no need to be hungry, gobble them up, or express praise.

Li Laiheng had tried his best to treat this suspected "third prince" who fell from the sky, but the food at that time was just that.

Huang Li thought it was normal according to his own standards. He even criticized the chef's skills. The taste was really unflattering.

In addition, Huang Li's clothes and shoes are of styles and materials that Li Laiheng and others have never heard of or seen before.

As for Huang Li's inability to write calligraphy, Li Laiheng has already figured out the reason for him.

During the Jiashen Incident, the third prince was only five or six years old, and he had only practiced calligraphy for a few years. After that, he was homeless and precarious, so how could he still have the mood to persevere?

"Then, maybe it's as he said. He returned from overseas travel and is not familiar with Chinese etiquette and customs." Li Yue blinked and raised another possibility.

Li Laiheng shook his head and said: "Then tell me, with his strange clothes and all kinds of suspicious things, how did he come here after returning from overseas?"

Li Yue was speechless.

Indeed, as my father said, this is not a coastal area, but inland. With what you are wearing, it is estimated that it will be difficult to land ashore.

Moreover, it is impossible to think that all the Qing troops along the way were blind, or that he could cleverly avoid all interrogations.
