From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 4 The Hunting Competition Begins

After Chen Qiye and Liu Qin registered their information, they came to an open space and waited for the hunting competition to begin.

At this time, almost all the people who came to participate in the hunting competition had arrived, and quite a few people gathered at the venue, most of them were young men in luxurious clothes.

The rules of the competition are very simple. It's about who can catch more prey within the specified time. You can bring your own bow, but the arrows are provided by the organizer because there are marks engraved on the arrowheads for easy scoring.

"Are you Chen Qiye?"

A man in a white robe rode a white horse and came up to Chen Qiye with a stern face. Chen Qiye, who was chatting with Liu Qin, turned around and looked at the man in confusion. He seemed to be young, probably only fifteen or sixteen years old.

She is dressed a bit extravagantly, with a white horse and a white robe, and looks like a prince charming. But she grows up a little too fast.

"who are you?"

Although Lezhou is not big in Qing Kingdom, it is not that small either. It is impossible for Chen Qiye to know everyone.

Liu Qin rode his horse close to Chen Qiye and whispered, "Brother Chen, he is Bai Chengxuan, the third son of the Bai family. He is the most beloved youngest son of the Bai family patriarch. He was very young before so he rarely showed up. He has only appeared frequently recently."

The Bai family? The most powerful family in Lezhou.

However, Chen Qiye was curious about why Liu Qin was so nervous. It was just a greeting. No matter how powerful the Bai family was, they could not be scared by just a name.

The other party's tone was arrogant and his eyes were unfriendly. Naturally, Chen Qiye would not be in a good mood. He said calmly: "I wonder what Mr. Bai wants to see me about?"

Bai Chengxuan looked at Chen Qiye coldly: "Chen Qiye, I will only say this once. If you dare to approach Sister Fei'er again in the future, I will never forgive you."

"That's all I have to say. You can decide for yourself."

After saying that, he pulled the reins and turned away.

It turned out to be the follower of the Oiran.

After hearing the other party's threat, Chen Qiye finally understood what was going on.

The news of which girl in a brothel was accompanying whom, especially a famous girl, would definitely spread very quickly, and it would not be surprising for others to know about it.

Chen Qiye wanted to laugh. These young masters were so hypocritical. They wanted to play with women but pretended to be gentlemen. This Third Young Master Mao Bai was probably not even fully grown yet, and he came to him to help a courtesan. He was still a big family...
The bicycle you were reluctant to ride made me so wet that night. If I see it next time, I will stand up and pedal.

Although the Bai family has the greatest influence in Lezhou, they are not so powerful that they can cover the sky with one hand. Chen Qiye does not need to be intimidated by the younger generations fighting over a woman, and naturally he will not pay attention to the threats from the little brat.

Seeing Chen Qiye's indifferent look, Liu Qin was terrified.

"Brother Chen, he is the young master of the Bai family. Don't make enemies with him. It's not worth it."

"This is also my fault. I just found out that Mr. Bai seems to like Miss Fei'er very much, otherwise he would definitely not let her appear next to Brother Chen that night."

Chen Qiye waved his hand: "Brother Liu, don't panic. We don't need to be afraid of him. He is a young master after all."

Liu Qin was even more anxious after hearing this: "Brother Chen, don't be impulsive, it's not worth it!"

"It's okay. This is my personal matter. It has nothing to do with Brother Liu. I suddenly have some interest in Miss Fei'er and I really can't bear to let her go."

If the other party hadn't done this, it would have nothing to do with him whether he looked for Fei'er or not, but now... Chen Qiye really wanted to test the quality of this car.

Liu Qin thought that Chen Qiye was too deeply tempted by beauty. He knew that he couldn't persuade her to change her mind. He could only sigh and say, "Well... OK, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"But Brother Chen, you should be careful and try to stay at the level of peaceful competition between the Oirans. Don't use violence or hurt anyone."

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Liu." "Everyone check your bows and horses. The hunt will officially begin after one stick of incense."

While the two were talking, all the people who wanted to participate in the competition had already registered, and the hunting would officially begin next.

There were more than twenty people participating in the competition. At this moment, they were all riding horses and waiting behind a straight line drawn by a red cloth, ready to attack at any time.

After a stick of incense, with the sound of a gong, more than twenty people rushed forward and backward, swinging the reins and riding their horses towards the dense forest ahead.

Hunting is about archery skills, not whose horse is faster. Running fast does not mean you can hit the target. Chen Qiye did not compete to be the first like others, but walked slowly at the end.

He took off the longbow from his back and carefully observed the situation around him.

As the crowd charged on horseback, a group of birds in the dense forest were startled and flew away, and everyone began to draw their bows and arrows in preparation for being the first to take the lead.

Before the game started, Chen Qiye noticed that Bai Chengxuan looked at him with a look of wanting to cause trouble, and he would most likely cause trouble for him during the game.

If you still keep an eye on your movements from time to time, then you basically can’t run away.

Rather than waiting for this kind of "ghost fire" boy to cause trouble, it is better to strike first.

Judging from Bai Chengxuan's technique, his archery skills were pretty good. Chen Qiye felt that if he didn't take the lead, Bai Chengxuan would easily take it to show off.

But now Chen Qiye was not going to give him this opportunity. The moment the opponent drew the bow and shot the first arrow, Chen Qiye immediately took action, pulled the bow into a full moon and shot an arrow, taking the lead in shooting down the opponent's prey.

"What a handsome archery skill."

In the back, several leaders of the Lezhou Ye family sat together, drinking tea and watching the hunting competition, and many people placed bets on who would come out on top.

More than 80% of them bought from Bai Chengxuan.

But before the bets were placed, the results came out.

Bai Chengxuan shot the first arrow, which was aimed directly at the belly of the bird. Both the speed and the force were perfect. The people who bet on Bai Chengxuan began to raise their glasses to celebrate, but who knew that in the next second another faster and more powerful arrow flew out, which successfully snatched Bai Chengxuan's prey and also took the title of the first place.

If you hit the prey, the most you can say is that you have good archery skills.

But he shot the arrow later and stole someone else's prey. With the reference for comparison, he seemed much more skilled. Ye Renxin, who took the lead in organizing this competition and recruiting talents for the Ye family, immediately waved his hand and praised the excellent archery skills.

"Whose family is this young man from?"

Ye Dan, who was just in charge of registering personnel information and preparing to trade skills with Chen Qiye, stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Sir, this young master is Chen Qiye, the young master of the Chen family."

Ye Renxin glanced at him and said, "Oh, you know him?"

Ye Dan nodded: "Yes, sir, I have a good relationship with Mr. Liu Qin and Mr. Chen."

"Well, since you know him, if his performance is good, you can contact him. If you can find a good talent for the Ye family, you will definitely benefit from it."

Ye Dan bowed his head happily: "Yes, sir."

In the forest.

Seeing his prey being snatched away, Bai Chengxuan looked at Chen Qiye angrily.

"Mr. Chen, what do you mean?"
