Shennong Sequence

Chapter 8 There will be another round of screening tomorrow

After the small flag officer Cheng Hongan returned to his residence, the several subordinates who had previously escorted the yellow tax collector into the city also came back and were now surrounding his house.

"Brother, why do I feel that Zhao Yun is a little strange?"

"Yes, he was a dark and sickly boy in the morning, but when he went out to urinate at noon, he came back not only whiter, but also a little stronger. I'm afraid it's not good for Niu Baihu to play with him, right?"

"Maybe he washed his face, but it's a little white. Isn't this just the feeling that suits a pretty boy? Maybe Niu Baihu is happy when he plays with it, and feels like a conqueror!"

When the small flag officer Cheng Hongan listened to his subordinates' words, he felt the same strange feeling he had when he saw Zhao Yun again in the afternoon.

"Forget it. I'll go ask Captain Niu later. If he wants it, we'll send it over. If not, let Zhao Yun fend for himself..."

Li Zhiguang stood in front of the stone house and looked at Zhao Yun, who was fair and strong, not like the sickly pretty boy like Liu Fufeng...but who knew if the centurion's taste had changed.

"Also, how good is your archery skill, Brother Zhao? When I saw you came in, you were still carrying a bow and arrow."

Zhao Yun thought about it and gave an explanation:
"I have practiced archery at home. It is not a problem for me to hit a fist-sized object at a distance of forty steps.

As for the distance, the material of my bow is not enough, so I haven't tried it."

Li Zhiguang nodded. Now he knew why Cheng Xiaoqi looked at Zhao Yun differently.

Especially with a weak bow, being able to shoot at a distance of forty steps is quite a feat!
"Brother Zhao, there will be another round of screening in the guard station tomorrow morning. I wish Brother Zhao a successful start and a good place to go!"

"Also, when you're off duty tomorrow, you can come find me at the logistics department."

Zhao Yun thanked him again, "Thank you for telling me, Brother Li. I will definitely go and talk to you about it when the time comes."

After Li Zhiguang left, Zhao Yun took a special look at the other two rooms where people from the same village lived.

He saw that they were also receiving their meals and nodding in thanks to him.

Zhao Yun nodded in response, then took the lunch box back to his room and opened it.

Inside, there was a bowl of noodle soup, two flatbreads, a plate of pickles, and a dish of shredded radish and pork.

Very good dietary standards!
Moreover, the food here is much better than what he has at home.

This made Zhao Yun's appetite whetted.

Then I ate the noodle soup, some side dishes, and some pancakes...

After Zhao Yun finished his meal, he put the lunch box at the door temporarily, then returned to his residence again, pulled the bowstring, put on the arrow feathers, and shot lightly in the house.

He is preparing to make another progress.

Every time a progress value is generated, a little understanding of archery techniques will be ignited in his mind.

Therefore, even if he does not cross a large progress value node, it can still bring considerable benefits to his archery ability.

It was just getting dark.

During that long night, he stayed alone in this room. He couldn't just look at the ceiling and fall asleep... and he didn't feel sleepy at all.

boom!
An arrow was shot out and collided with the stone wall inside the cabin.

However, Zhao Yun still used the half-broken wooden arrow to shoot lightly.

What are the benefits of doing this?
It does not destroy its other arrows;

At the same time, the bowstring is only slightly pulled apart, so as not to cause excessive loss of muscle energy in the entire arm and spine due to frequent bow drawing and arrow shooting, which would lead to poor condition when demonstrating one's abilities tomorrow or when training.

Therefore, when brushing the progress value, you still need to train in moderation.

"bang bang bang"

As Zhao Yun put the broken wooden arrow on the bow and gently pulled the bowstring, he shot again and again into a small area drawn on the stone wall in front of him.

One by one, progress values ​​began to increase and climb up, and little by little, insights about archery came to my mind.

Moreover, Zhao Yun also discovered that the progress value given by pulling the bowstring and shooting arrows was much faster than those unorthodox methods, such as using stones. When using the same set of action methods to obtain the given progress value, the degree of decay was also very slow.

After gently pulling the bowstring twenty or so times, Zhao Yun felt his entire hand beginning to feel numb and sore.

In addition, these twenty or so arrow shots also increased the progress value of Zhao Yun's archery skill by 12 points.

These 12 progress points also brought back 12 memories and insights about archery skills to Zhao Yun's mind.

This was of great help in increasing his strength and correcting his movements in each subsequent archery attempt.

Of course, when I was tired, I had to stop for a while and take a rest.

After all, what Zhao Yun wanted was progress, not training himself to exhaustion.

Rest when you are tired.

That’s the best way to stay in shape.

"Alas, even though I pull the bowstring gently to shoot the arrow, my arm is starting to ache a little."

"Fortunately, the advancement of my archery skills at noon has made me stronger and my recovery ability has been greatly enhanced."

"Otherwise, given the headache I felt when I was awakening my wisdom, it would be difficult for me to survive in this military camp where the strong are respected."

Zhao Yun rested for a while and sorted out the new archery skills that emerged in his mind.

After the tiredness in his arms disappeared, Zhao Yun bent his bow and shot arrows again.

This time, he picked out a pretty good arrow with an iron tip from the quiver.

He gently bent the bow, aimed at a finger-sized stone at the corner opposite the house, and shot.

"Peng!"

The arrow flew at high speed and hit the target immediately, knocking the pebbles on the stone wall flying.

Zhao Yun walked forward, picked up the iron arrow that had fallen to the ground, and checked it.

He saw that the tip of the iron arrow had already been bent a little, and the pain made him feel like his heart was being cut by a knife.

In addition, the stone that was just hit by the iron arrow not only had a small hole pierced through it, but also had a crack created on it!
If this arrow hits an animal, it will definitely penetrate the flesh and nail it to the bones!
Therefore, at a certain distance, the power of the bow and arrow cannot be underestimated!

But the tip of the iron arrowhead is curled, which also shows that arrows are consumables.

If the arrow accidentally hits a particularly hard object, it will be broken.

Now this rolled iron arrowhead can only be repaired and sharpened before it can be used again.

Otherwise, because of the curled blade of the arrow, the entire arrow will be slightly erratic when it is shot out, which can easily cause the human body to be missed.

Then, Zhao Yun had to put the rolled iron arrow aside and picked up the worn wooden arrow, continuing to use it as a tool to increase his progress.

"Bang bang bang!"

Another twenty or so shots.

This time, when Zhao Yun's hands began to shake, he had to stop again.

He was afraid that if he ejaculated again, his entire arm would be in pain all night.

Zhao Yun glanced at the progress value:
[Skill: Archery (Beginner)]

[Progress: (26/100)]

[Effect: Strong physique, eagle-like eyes]

"This progress is not bad. In another day or two, I will be able to advance my archery skills once again... By then, I will become even stronger!"
