Shennong Sequence

Chapter 5 Introduction to Archery
Zhao Yun's behavior of continuously throwing stones seemed a little strange among the crowd.

But the official in front did not say anything, and the fellow villagers behind him, who did not know where they would be sent as exiles, looked at Zhao Yun's leisurely appearance and felt very angry.

I just regret that it’s not Zhao Yun.

Everyone's future is bleak, but you are the only one whose future seems slightly brighter...

However, this does not affect Zhao Yun's joy in improving his archery skills.

After a while, the progress value of archery changed greatly.

[Skills: Archery (Not yet started)]

[Progress: (51/100)]

[Effect: Not yet introduced, not derived]

However, at this point, the rapidly growing progress value suddenly decreased a bit.

Zhao Yun compared the growth rate of the progress value and his own behavior and summed up some experience.

If those stones can be hit 10 meters away and accurately hit the preset target in the mind, the progress value will be +1, and a slight understanding of archery will arise in the mind.

But if it only hits a tree trunk within 10 meters, or the stone is launched at a distance of 10 meters but does not hit the preset target in the center, then there will naturally be no increase in progress.

And as Zhao Yun continued to experiment.

He gradually discovered that the progress value would gradually decrease as the same project was used for longer periods of time.

This means that the difficulty of training must be continuously increased in order to continuously obtain higher progress values.

Just like on a long journey, we need to continue to climb to the top...

After a long while and after passing five houses, Village Chief Zhao finally caught up with the slowly moving tax collectors, panting and hurrying.

With him leading the way, the entire tax collection team moved forward more smoothly and was able to more effectively find those families who had not paid taxes by the final tax payment period.

During this period, Zhao Yun was like a transparent man, silently practicing his archery skills.

For him,

He doesn't need to do anything to collect taxes.

Of course, he does not have that responsibility and corresponding rights.

Therefore, the process of collecting taxes is also a special time point when he can accumulate progress the fastest, advance his archery skills to the entry level, and impress the big shot introduced by the flag officer Cheng Hongan.

But the act of lifting stones is also very simple, so the further you proceed, the harder it is to gain progress points.

In addition, Zhao Yun cannot directly bend the bow and shoot arrows in the team, even if he tries to draw the bow!

Because even if he had no intention of hurting anyone, the display of his weapon represented danger and was enough to scare the officers and soldiers in front of him.

If you fail to do it properly, you will not only be scolded, but your bow and arrow will also be taken away.

If you have nothing, then you will never be able to improve your archery skills.

Zhao Yun had no other way to gain progress in archery, so he could only continue throwing stones.

He worked very hard and practiced very hard for a long time before he finally raised the progress value of his archery from the beginner's level to 90.

There are still 10 points of progress left to reach the perfect .

But Zhao Yun felt that if he continued to throw stones, the points would be like crossing a chasm, and he would have to throw many, many times before the progress value could increase.

Everything needs to return to archery itself.

We can't use any unconventional means anymore.

"It seems that I need to find an opportunity to actually pull the bowstring a few times and shoot the arrows. Maybe I can quickly get the last 10 progress points."

Zhao Yun frowned and thought to himself.

By noon, everyone had already walked out of Zhaojiazhuang and came to another place called Niujiao Village.

The flag officer Cheng Hongan and the tax collector Huang were being warmly received by the village chief Zhang of Niujiao Village.

In addition, those who were to be sent into exile could only eat the food they brought from their homes.

As for those who didn't bring any food, they had to starve. Zhao Yun, whose legs were weak from walking, was lucky enough to sit together with several officers and soldiers and eat a hearty lunch filled with fragrance.

"Brothers, I'm going to go to the bathroom, you guys continue..."

Zhao Yun quickly finished his meal, said hello to a few soldiers, and then followed the people next to him to ask where the toilet was.

After using the toilet, he walked alone to a place with trees.

He took out his bow and arrow, found a tattered wooden arrow from his quiver, and prepared to bend the bow and shoot.

It is also worth mentioning that the arrow is a consumable.

If you use too much force, or the object you hit is too hard, the arrow shaft can be damaged and broken after a few shots.

So in this current practice, Zhao Yun only used the worst arrows to practice first.

See if you can get the progress value to 100 quickly.

Let's also take a look at what kind of wonderful effects will be produced after you really master the art of archery.

Zhao Yun stood steadily two meters away from the tree, held the bow, put the arrow on it, pulled the bowstring slightly, then let go and shot the arrow out.

However, the arrow was flying very fast and flew right past the tree...

"Damn, this is too outrageous. He can't even shoot accurately at such a close distance. It's just the outline of a human body!"

Zhao Yun couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

But then there was another surprise.

Even though the arrow missed the target, it still added a progress value to the "Archery" skill.

"It seems that throwing stones before is indeed an unconventional way to increase the progress value of archery."

"If you want to improve your archery skills quickly, you have to do it with archery!"

"Come again!"

Zhao Yun picked up the worn-out wooden arrow that had not been shot very far and had not been pulled very far.

This time he took a step forward and came within one meter of the tree.

"I don't believe it this time. I can shoot it directly in the face. How can I miss the tree?"

Zhao Yun took a deep breath, put the arrow on the bow, and gently pulled the string.

"boom!"

This time the wooden arrow hit the big tree straight.

However, since the arrow was made of bone and Zhao Yun's pulling force was not very strong, it was just a small attempt.

So the arrow only left a slight wound on the tree and then fell directly to the ground.

Even so, this shooting still added a progress value to Zhao Yun.

"Not bad!"

A slight smile finally appeared on Zhao Yun's face.

Then he continued to concentrate on feeling the unique feeling of bending the bow and shooting the arrow that emerged in his mind.

When Zhao Yun pulled the bowstring again, a new round of shooting began...

"Huh, this progress value has finally reached 100."

While Zhao Yun was delighted, the illusory yellow cloth that appeared before his eyes was shining with golden light, intertwining and entwining with each other, shining brightly.

[Skill: Archery (Beginner)]

[Progress: (0/200)]

[Effect: Strong physique, eagle-like eyes]

At the same time, Zhao Yun only felt a powerful force emerging from his brain and quickly flowing throughout his body.
