Chapter 0029 Learning Archery
Han Zhan, who went home alone, seemed a little depressed because he suddenly realized a serious problem: Although Zhao Yun is the most powerful force in the three armies, he is too young and does not understand the principle of eliminating evil. Zhu Zhen suffered such a big loss today and would never give up and would sooner or later take revenge. Zhao Yun is now a hundred generals of the Jizhou Army. He is not his own personal guard. It is impossible for him to be by his side for twelve hours a day. If he wants to be safe, it is better to rely on himself than on others. He also has to find ways to improve his martial arts.
When he thought of practicing martial arts, he immediately thought of his second brother Han Bing, who learned martial arts from others in the mansion every day, and he might be able to learn some life-saving moves. Thinking of this, he accelerated his horse and wanted to rush back to the mansion as soon as possible.
After coming to the front of the mansion, he turned over and dismounted and handed the reins to the servant at the door, Han Zhan asked casually: "Is the master who teaches the second young master's martial arts here?"
"Return to the eldest son's words," the servant replied respectfully, "The second son is practicing arrows in the garden at this moment." Han Zhan nodded after hearing this, walked into the mansion quickly, and walked straight to the back garden.
Han Zhan came to the back garden and stood at the door and looked around. He saw Han Jie wearing a black arrow suit, pointing at the target in the distance with a middle-aged man in the same dress, holding a bow and arrow. Two servants in green clothes stood aside. When the servant saw Han Zhan appear, he was about to say hello, but Han Zhan raised his hand to stop him.
As soon as he walked behind a few people, he saw the arrow master arching the full moon. With the sound of the bowstring, the arrow flew out like a meteor, and pierced it on the red heart of the target thirty steps away. Han Bing saw his master hit the red heart with an arrow, and immediately shouted loudly.
Han Zhan saw clearly that the arrow was inserted on the target and was inserted at the edge of the red heart, and couldn't help laughing. He thought that the arrow was probably covered, and his silly brother kept applauding. Then, the arrow master placed the second arrow on the bowstring and shot it without hesitation. This time the arrow master was stabbed under the red heart. Seeing this situation, Han Zhan almost laughed out loud, feeling that the arrow master's level was to shoot at the edge of the red heart.
Just as Han Zhan wanted to speak, the third arrow shot by the archer also hit the target. After seeing the position of the arrow, Han Zhan was stunned. The arrow was impartially pierced between the first two arrows, three arrows arranged in a straight line, and the distance between each arrow was exactly the same.
Seeing this, Han Zhan suddenly realized that this archer was not blindly fooling around, but had real talents and knowledge. Even if he found a few archers to shoot, he might not be able to reach his level.
"Master, good arrows!" After Han Bing and other masters shot three arrows, they immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "This is the legendary three-talent arrow of heaven, earth, man, right?"
The three-Cai Arrow sounded very advanced. Han Zhan quickly pricked up his ears and wanted to hear how the Arrow Master taught his second brother Han Bing. He only heard the Arrow Master say, "Second Young Master, I have just taught you the key points of archery skills, and I have demonstrated them myself. Now please try it!"
Han Bing agreed readily, pulled out an arrow from the arrow bag behind him and put it on the bowstring. He imitated his master's appearance and aimed at the target. Then he let go and the arrow flew out. But unfortunately, the arrow flew over the edge of the target.
Seeing that his arrow was not on the target, Han Bing waved his fist so much that he suddenly waved his fist, and pulled out the second arrow, preparing to try again, but Han Zhan, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but scream in surprise: "Brother, when did you come?" Then he looked at the servant fire who was standing beside him, "Since you saw the eldest son coming, why don't you call me?"
"Second brother, don't blame them," Han Zhan said with a smile: "I won't let them tell you, so as not to affect your practice of arrows."
"See the eldest son." The archer on the side hurriedly stepped forward to greet Han Zhan and said to Han Bing in a stern tone: "Second Young Master, you must focus on your mind when practicing arrows and continue practicing arrows. Don't be distracted by trivial matters."
When Han Bing heard the archer say this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, please wait a moment. After I shoot all the arrows in the archer's pouch, I will talk to you."
While Han Bian was aiming at the target to shoot archery, Han Zhan pulled the archer aside and whispered: "This master, I want to learn archery, I wonder if I can give you some advice?"
After looking up and down, the Arrow Master Han Zhan asked tentatively: "Have you ever shot arrows before?"
Han Zhan shook his head and replied with a wry smile: "No."
After hearing what Han Zhan said, the archer's face showed a embarrassed expression. After a while, he said tactfully: "Young Master, if you want to practice arrows, you can't see results overnight. Look, the second master has been practicing for more than half a month, but now my target can only reach the level of 10 or 10 out of ten..."
Han Zhan raised his hand and interrupted the archer's words behind him, and said humbly: "I hope Master will teach me!"
Seeing that Han Zhan was determined, the archer could only sigh, walked to the weapon stand, took an iron-tied bow, handed it to Han Zhan, and said bluntly: "Please pull a full bow for someone."
Han Zhan took the iron-tied bow from the archer's hand, held the bow arm with his left hand and stretched it forward. He held the bowstring with his right finger and pulled it backward, but he could not pull it after only half of it.
Seeing Han Zhan pulling the bow, the archer shook his head in disappointment, and then pointed at him: "Young Master, you have never learned to take a bow and arrow, and you can't pull it like you."
"Master," Han Zhan quickly put away his bow and arrow, bowed and bowed to the other party, and asked modestly: "I don't know why the correct bow pulling posture is the correct bow. Please give me some advice."
Seeing that Han Zhan was so polite to him, the expression on his face also softened: "The eldest young master held the bowstring in his right hand and kept it still in motion, and held the bow arm in his left hand and slowly pushed forward with force. In just a moment, the bow will be like a full moon."
Han Zhan tried to pull the bow according to the way the archer said, and he successfully pulled the bow open. Seeing that the first test was successful, he quickly tried it twice in a row, and successfully pulled the bow that could only be pulled half into a full moon.
The archer nodded with a smile and said with praise: "The eldest son has a high understanding and has mastered the skills of drawing bows so quickly. Next, I can teach the eldest son to shoot arrows."
When the two returned to Han Bing, he had already shot all the twenty arrows in the archer's bag. Seeing the archer coming, he said proudly: "Master, how do you see your disciple's archery skills?"
Han Zhan looked at the target in the distance and saw that in addition to the three three-tale arrows shot by the archer, there were four or five arrows inserted near the edge of the target. Seeing this situation, his heart suddenly became halfway. Han Bian had practiced his bow and arrow for so long, and shot an extra target with thirty steps. The target rate was so low. If he had changed to himself, his grades would be even worse.
But the Arrow Master nodded and praised Han Bing's level: "It's not bad, the second young master's level has improved greatly. Yesterday, he could only get one or two out of ten, but today he can get two or three out of ten. In time, the second young master will definitely become a sharpshooter."
Flatter! After Han Zhan commented on the archer in his heart, he asked with a smile: "Master, I wonder when I can learn archery?"
"The eldest son has learned to draw the bow," said the archer with a blank expression: "Just put the arrow on the bowstring and you can shoot the arrow out."
Han Zhan put the arrow on the bowstring and pulled the bow into a full moon. He aimed at the target thirty steps away for a while, then held his breath and let go of his hand suddenly. The arrow flew out like lightning. But the arrow had no accurate head or strength, and it fell down seven or eight steps away from the target.
The archer seemed to have been accustomed to this result, and the expression on his face was ineffective at all. Han Bing shouted and said, "Oh, brother, you are not strong enough. Look, you are still so far from the target, and you fall down."
"Young Master, when you take a bow and shoot arrows, you should raise the arrow slightly." The Arrow Master was afraid that Han Zhan would not understand, so he explained to him: "For example, on the battlefield, the arrow you shot fell before it flew to the enemy. The enemy will think you are timid, and in the next battle, he will be extremely fierce. If you raise the arrow a little, even if you can't hit the target, you can still startle him when the arrow flies over the enemy's head... Do you understand what you mean?"
"I understand, thank you for your advice." After hearing the archer's guidance, Han Zhan felt enlightened and quickly said respectfully: "Master's teachings have benefited a lot."
He tapped his bow again, and the arrow was slightly raised. When the arrow broke out again, although the force was still a little weak, it successfully penetrated the target.
The archer nodded slightly and said in praise: "The eldest son has a good understanding and has mastered the skills of archery. If you practice more, you will definitely improve."
