Chapter 203 Qi Hui's Petty Actions, Bloodshed
Chen Kun frowned when he heard that the two were going to compete.

Horse riding is unlike any other competition; it carries inherent risks. If you fall off your horse, things can get very complicated.

Zhao Wei fell a few days ago, but fortunately it wasn't serious.

Moreover, archery must be added.

Reality isn't a movie; on a horse charging at high speed, a person can't react in time.

Without specialized training, it's impossible to shoot arrows on horseback.

Moreover, archery is a skill that requires long-term training.

Zhou Xun also frowned, somewhat worried that Qi Hui would win the match.

The swamp eel clearly has ill intentions!

"Isn't it a bit dull to just have a competition like this?" Zhao Wei suddenly spoke up, smiling, "How about adding some prizes?"

As expected of a stock market guru, he immediately wanted to increase his bet.

"Haha, not bad!" Wuershan laughed heartily.
"If I lose, you can decide on your vacation schedule as you like, as long as it doesn't interfere with the filming."

Qi Hui smiled and said, "If I lose, then whatever you say goes, and I will no longer object."

He had seen the horses on set, and every single one of them had been doing a lot of exercise during the filming.

The only one with full strength was the one that Wuershan rode over.

Horses are delicate creatures; they can run for long periods, but they must stop frequently to drink water and eat.

Because their stomachs cannot store that much food.

If it were during wartime, exploitation would be acceptable, no big deal.

But it's just a simple competition now, and the props team wouldn't bring the horses back just because of this.

In other words, Qi and Wuershan are going to share a horse for the race.

"Oh? You said it yourself!" Wuershan's eyes lit up, overjoyed.

This fourth-class person is so sensible today... Urshan's smile gradually became more unrestrained. This kid probably doesn't know how powerful Genghis Khan's descendants are, right?

Ulsan was overjoyed; he was already imagining how he would order Qi Hui to do some fun things after they won…

not far away.

Producers Pang Hong and Wang Zonglei strolled over slowly.

Looking at the two who had made the bet, Pang Hong chuckled: "Their relationship isn't as tense as we thought."

"Men often have minor disagreements, but they can be resolved by talking it out."

He was very satisfied with Wuershan's initiative and also with Qi Hui's carefree attitude.

This kid is good, he's talented. If I have the opportunity, I'll continue to cast him in movies.

Wang Zonglei chuckled, feeling somewhat gratified, just like Pang Hong.

He certainly hopes for peace within his film crew, free from infighting and disputes.

He also hopes that everyone will focus their energy on their work.

On the other side, watching the delighted Wuershan, Qi Hui felt increasingly amused.

As expected... he still pulled this stunt to rebuild his so-called prestige and authority.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; Wuershan wanted to get back the face it had lost in Qi's hands.

However... the scope of this project is pitifully small!

Does Wuershan think I agreed to play games with him?

"In that case, shall we begin?" Qi Hui said, taking the bow and arrow from his hand.

“Alright,” Wuershan said. “Props: Find a good horse and bring it over for Qi Hui.”

"This..." The prop master hesitated for a moment: "Director, the horses have been filming all day and are drinking water and eating hay."

"There are only two people, so using one horse shouldn't be a problem, right?"

As Qi Hui had expected, the props team raised objections.

Wuershan frowned, somewhat displeased.

"One horse it is," Qi Hui chuckled. "I'll trouble you to make a few targets."

"Alright, alright!" Master Ma was overjoyed and left quickly, without even waiting for Wuershan's consent.

Qi Hui is much easier to talk to!
This also shows how badly Wu Ershan's authority was damaged. After being slapped by Qi Hui, his authority as a director really plummeted.

Soon, five targets were placed, each twenty meters apart.

The onlookers dispersed and watched from a distance.

"You go first," Wu Ershan said generously, confident in his skills.

Qi Hui did not refuse, as this was exactly what he wanted.

Stepping on the stirrups and grabbing the rope, Qi Hui skillfully mounted the horse, wielding a bow and riding with unparalleled ease.

The simple action had already shown everyone that Qi Hui's horsemanship was not bad.

Yang Mi took out her phone, ready to film what was about to happen.

"ready, go!"

At his command, Qi Hui slapped the horse's rump and squeezed his legs tightly against the horse's back.

Immediately, the rapid sound of hooves rang out, and the horses galloped off.

On horseback, Qi Hui drew his bow and began to aim.

He possesses the skill "Proficient in Firearms and Shooting" and believes that rapid firing while on the move is not difficult for him.

However… Qi Hui underestimated the difference between bows and arrows and firearms. He could indeed aim while moving, but he used a traditional bow and arrow, not a modern composite bow.

Traditional bows require continuous force to maintain the arrow's potential energy.

Qi Hui didn't react in time; he missed the first target and shot the second one off target.

This drew a chorus of boos.

Wuershan scoffed. "So weak, how dare he compare to me?"
On horseback, Qi Hui dared not be negligent and immediately decided to abandon the third target in preparation for the fourth and fifth.

There was a distance of forty meters, which was enough for him to adjust.

He immediately gripped the horse's back with both legs, drew his bow and arrow, ready to fire.

Offstage, Chen Kun frowned: "Something's not right..."

Why is Qi Hui keeping his legs crossed?
With stirrups on, you don't need to squeeze your legs together...

Soon, the fourth target arrived.

Qi Hui loosened his grip, and the arrow flew out.

Benedict!
Hit the bullseye!

Whoosh—thud!

Before the onlookers could react, an arrow had already been stuck into the fifth target.

Although I wasn't used to it at first, I quickly adjusted later.

clap clap clap!
Soon, applause erupted, cheering for Qi Hui.

Regardless, he was hit by two arrows.

Qi Hui gripped the horse's back with his legs and pulled on the reins to ride back.

"Hahaha, it's my turn!" Wuershan laughed.

Qi Hui coughed lightly, clenching his fist, and said, "Be careful, this horse is not easy to ride."

Zhao Wei scoffed, "You blame the horse for a bad shot? Could it be that your technique is bad?"

She disliked Qi Hui, who always hovered around Zhou Xun and ignored her.

"I'm telling the truth!" Qi Hui's face flushed slightly, and he subconsciously shouted out loud.

The voice was quite loud, and coming from a high position, so everyone present subconsciously quieted down.

"This horse is indeed a bit bad!" he continued.

Before he could finish speaking, the horse snorted and turned in a circle, seemingly disdainful of Qi Hui's words.

"Hahaha, in the hands of us Mongols, a bad horse or a good horse are the same," Wu Ershan laughed loudly.

Qi Hui dismounted, still saying, "Director, you'd better be careful, don't be careless..."

"Alright, I understand," Wu Ershan interrupted Qi Hui.

This was exactly what he wanted: to refute Qi Hui in front of everyone.

Upon hearing this, Qi Hui was not angry and stepped back with his bow and arrows.

Wuershan mounted the horse, his thick thighs straddling it, rubbing against a spot on the right side of the horse's back.

The horse froze, then suddenly went berserk, kicking its legs backward and attacking the air inexplicably.

The sudden change startled Wuershan, who instinctively grabbed the reins and the mane on the horse's neck.

Hee hee hee hee—!
The immense pain caused the horse to neigh. As soon as its hind leg landed, its two front legs rose high, and its head and neck shook and struggled.

"Ah, ah—!"

Suddenly, Wuershan fell off the horse.

He was not prepared at all; the horse first kicked backward, then reared up.

Twice in a row, he completely lost his balance, and before he could grab on, he fell straight down.

With a thud, Wuershan fell to the ground, and the horse's hooves, which had fallen high above, were trampling on him.

"careful!"

"Get out of the way!"

The continuous shouts made Wuershan's heart pound.

However, he was skilled in horsemanship, familiar with horses, and well aware of his current situation.

He immediately rolled over and hid away.

But... it was too late.

Click!

The crisp sound echoed in his mind, followed by a tsunami of excruciating pain surging from his thigh.

"Ah—!" Wuershan screamed, but still did not give up. He rolled on the ground repeatedly, allowing him to quickly escape the horses' range.

However, his thighs were bent into a strange arc.

The swamp eel has a broken bone!

On the other side, the horseman pounced forward, quickly grabbed the reins, and brought the horse under control.

The horse was quickly brought under control. It was a domesticated animal with a gentle temperament; it had simply been frightened.

"Ahhh—!" Wuershan rolled around on the ground, the pain of his broken bones making him wish he were dead.

Master Ma was still in shock, the actors were screaming, and the doctor was rushing over... In the crowd, Qi Hui calmly watched all of this.

Human joys and sorrows are not universally understood, and a triumphant smile spread across his face.
