Chapter 1206 Challenge
There were about 30 students in this group, and none of them were familiar with Chen Zhao. They just knew his name.
He is not as naughty as Fang San, and he is quite famous in the academy.
Everyone only knew that he was Fang San's relative. He moved from another place and his parents died. He was very familiar with the classics in the book, but he had never seen him play, let alone activities such as ejaculation and monarchy.
"How come Mi Weiyi wants to compare archery with a newcomer?"
"This Mi Weiyi Yi is a master of archery. Could it be that he wants to bully this newcomer?"
"I heard that Chen Zhao is an orphan and Fang San's relative, so what kind of archery skills do you know? I'm afraid I haven't seen it before?"
"I heard that they came from the capital."
"Come from Beijing? Can he, a small person, come into contact with archery places?"
Many people are puzzled.
After all, scholars who can study in county academies all have some family property at home, either doing business or having a lot of fertile land.
In order to suppress his subordinates or tenants, the backbone of the family will have more or less skilled martial arts, and many of them are good at archery skills.
What's more, it is close to Bazhou, where the imperial court promoted horse administration, so people here can buy horses more or less, and even gallop on horseback and play a trick of bent bows and arrows.
However, no one in the young people in the capital would want to ride horses and shoot arrows unless they were a family of martial arts, because that would lose their identity.
So in the hearts of these young men in the countryside, the scholars from Dingxing County must be better than those from the capital in archery.
Only those who knew the inside story and had seen the scene at noon laughed gloatingly. Compared to Chen Zhao, who had only been here for half a month, they naturally support Mi Weiyi more.
Master Chen frowned and said:
"Are you sure you want to compete with Chen Zhao for archery?"
After saying that, he looked at Chen Zhao and said:
"Chen Zhao, if you understand archery, you can naturally participate. If you have never been in contact, you can refuse. After all, a gentleman's dispute can be laughed out and there is no shooting."
Mi Weiyi looked at Chen Zhao eagerly and said provocatively:
"A man surnamed Chen, aren't you very arrogant at noon? You don't even dare to attend the archery ceremony? If you are a scholar from Yuelai Academy and dare not shoot archery, would you want to be a weak scholar who doesn't eat grains, can't carry it on your shoulders, or can't carry it? Even if you pass the Jinshi, you're afraid you won't be an official for a few days, right? Hahaha..."
Seeing this, Zhao Detian frowned slightly. He just wanted to get up to stop him, but was pulled by everyone beside him.
"I have never participated in the ejaculation ceremony." Chen Zhao shook his head.
"It's okay, as long as you can shoot half of me, I will lose." Mi Weiyi was full of confidence.
"Oh?" Chen Zhao looked at him with a smile. "So, do you have to fight me?"
"What, are you scared?"
Mi Weiyi poked his chest with his fingers and said word by word.
"If you are afraid, don't talk big. Just shrank honestly! This Yuelai Academy is not someone like you who can make trouble."
Chen Zhao snorted coldly and said, "The Master said, "A gentleman has no dispute, so he must shoot! He bows and gives way and drinks, and he is a gentleman. If he has not yet played, you are so proud. What kind of gentleman is you?"
"Oh...hahaha, do you know a lot about Master's subtle words? I have heard a lot of your hard-mouthed words. Do you dare to come over to compete in the ejaculation ceremony? If you don't dare, just follow what I say and keep your back honestly in the future." Mi Weiyi laughed.
Chen Zhao's face was calm, and he seemed to not care about Mi Weiyi's sarcastic sarcasm: "What I'm afraid of is that you lose and you can't find the crack in the ground to get into it."
"I will lose to you?" Mi Weiyi simply suspected that she had heard it wrong.
He turned around and said loudly to the people around him: "This kid said that I can't compare to him in archery. Is it funny to say?"
As soon as Mi Weiyi said this, everyone was in an uproar.
"It's actually said that Mi Weiyi is not his opponent, he is too crazy."
"Mi Weiyi has been riding horses and shooting arrows since he was a child. Except for Mr. Zhao, who dares to say that he is firmly defeated him?"
"They come from the capital, maybe they can hide it? Haha!"
When people around saw that there was a good show, they came to watch it.
Many people had some pity for Chen Zhao before.
After all, Chen Zhao is an orphan, and he is a country boy like Fang San. Although he used to live in the capital, it was already a thing of the past.
In addition, Mi Weiyi was born in a wealthy family and was rich since childhood. He could ride horses and shoot arrows. He was a well-known playboy.
This natural contrast between strength and weakness naturally makes everyone sympathetic to Chen Zhao.
As a result, as soon as Chen Zhao said this, many people felt that he was a little ignorant of the world.
Anyone who has read books knows the allusion of "practice makes perfect". Although most people practice for years and years, it is definitely not as good as Li Guang practiced for a few days, but there is a huge difference between being able to shoot archers and not even touching bows and arrows.
Unless Chen Zhao really practiced archery skills and was very profound, so he was hidden, how could he be Mi Weiyi's opponent?
But those who are interested have long paid attention to Chen Zhao's hands.
It has fine skin and tender flesh, and it is not like an expert who has ever been exposed to weapons.
"Come on, see how you can't find the crack in the ground to drill." Mi Weiyi hooked Chen Zhao and said provocatively.
He stepped onto the field, took out his own bow and arrow, and after putting the target in the academy's servants, he immediately took the standard archery posture, bent his bow and put the arrow on, pulling the bowstring like a full moon. Suddenly, his hand relaxed, and the arrow suddenly disappeared like a meteor. He heard a "peng" sound, hitting the red heart of the target a hundred steps away.
"Okay!" The scholars cheered.
Anyone who doesn't understand archery can see that Mi Weiyi's arrow was made very beautiful from the beginning to the end.
After shooting this arrow, he looked at Chen Zhao, hoping that the boy would know the difference between the two.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhao snorted coldly with disdain:
"Pretending to be profound!"
As soon as this sentence was said, not only did Mi Weiyi's face change drastically, but even Mr. Chen and Zhao Detian next to him also looked dark.
When people say that they are "pretending to be profound" in the occasion of essay, it is not just Mi Weiyi, but involves Master Chen.
Master Chen just talked about the meaning and content of the archery ritual, as if he was not a gentleman and was not worthy of being a Confucian disciple.
Now someone says "pretending to be profound".
The spectators around him also completely lost sympathy for Chen Zhao.
The most important thing for a person is to have self-knowledge. At this time, he is still stubborn and will only make others look down upon.
"Go and shoot an arrow, give him some color." Someone shouted in anger.
"My surname is Chen, do you think my arrow is a coincidence?"
Mi Weiyi sneered, picked up another arrow, put it on the bowstring, and shouted, "Then let you see my skills."
After saying that, bend your bow and shoot arrows again.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
...
Mi Weiyi shot eight arrows in one breath, each arrow not only hit the bull's eye, but also at the center, each arrow is no more than one copper coin board thickness apart.
It can be said that among ordinary people, it is an extremely skillful archery technique.
But in Chen Zhao's eyes, he was just winning the favor of all the Chinese.
On the battlefield, drums are beating and killing sounds are shaking, and they are unable to defeat the three arrows. Where can I get time to shoot archery so calmly?
Not to mention Chen Zhao's current magical powers, when he was Liu A Dou, he had already mastered the superb archery technique on the battlefield, far above Li Guang.
