149. Chapter 149(3/3)

Jiang Chao no longer had the rage that was a moment ago, rolling out layers of white foam, completely surrounding her.

She floated in it, wandering around, as if she had received the gentlest care from the mother and the fetus.

In her breath, the last thing she smelled was the faint fishy smell unique to the spring river tide.

This smell reminded her of the last breath left to her by the man who died on her back then.

It was the breath of blood.

Memories, for the last time, called her back to the late spring of Jiangnan ten years ago.

That year, she was twenty-five years old, just in her age, but she had been widowed for seven years.

The Gao family is a top family in Jiangzuo and a high standard for the gentry.

Gao Luoshen's father Gao Qiao was famous for his purity and elegance throughout his life. He served as the leading general of the court, the general of the country, the minister of the court, the sacrificial minister, and the title of county duke, and was famous all over the world.

My mother Xiao Yongjia, the eldest sister of Emperor Xingping, and was named Princess Qinghe.

In addition to family background, Gao Luo people are as famous as their name, and their talent and appearance are well-known in Jiankang. For seven years, there have been endless suitors, almost all of them are the children of Jiejun, a gentry who matches the Gao family.

But Gao Luoshen's mind is as quiet as water, and he lives in a quiet place.

Until one day, she was summoned to the palace.

A peaceful life was broken.

Lu Jianzhi arrived first, took the bow and arrow, and arrived at the point of shooting, stood for a while, then rolled the arrow, pulled the bow, and opened it into the shape of a full moon.

The tenons on both sides of the bow tips were too much force from his arms, and gradually made a slight trembling sound.

Just as the bowstring was tense and seemed to be about to break, he suddenly let go of his thumb, which was tightly pressed on the arrow shaft.

The arrow broke free from the bondage in an instant, left the string, and went straight forward like lightning, hissing through the air. In the blink of an eye, with a "pop", it was nailed into the money hole in the center of the target opposite.

A shot hit!

Not only that, during the whole process, his archery movements, whether it was steady bow or aiming, were also done in one go like flowing water, without any stagnation, which was extremely beautiful!

The target guards on the opposite side stepped forward to inspect and used the flag to indicate the passing.

In an instant, a burst of applause broke out in the shooting range.

In addition to the disciples and disciples of Gao and Lu families, those who were in conflict with these two families on weekdays had to accept Lu Jianzhi's bow shooting after seeing Lu Jianzhi's bow shooting with their own eyes.

The eldest son of the Lu family is indeed well-known.

The cheers in the shooting range behind him were still coming one after another, but Lu Jianzhi seemed to be silent at all.

He lowered his bow and arrow, looked up at the third level, which was the direction of the clear debate field, and rushed away.

However, after only ten steps out, his ears suddenly became quiet.

This is a strange feeling.

It seemed as if the throats of hundreds of people in the shooting range behind him were suddenly pinched by a giant hand at this moment.

Collective sound silence!

Lu Jianzhi subconsciously stopped and turned his head.

Li Mu followed him and arrived.

Not only that, he had already fired an arrow in the blink of an eye when he had only been running for more than ten steps.

An arrow was deeply nailed into the bull's-eye money hole at the end of the trajectory.

The arrow shaft was still trembling slightly with the remaining force that had not yet been exhausted.

Lu Jianzhi seemed to hear the special buzzing sound it made.

The shooting range, which was filled with cheers a moment ago, was silent with Li Mu's appearance and the arrow he shot.

Almost no one saw how Li Mu shot the arrow with a bow, and the arrow had already emerged from the string.

Not only is it fast, but its strength is like holding thousands of thunder, with a faint murderous aura.

Perhaps they didn't have time to react, or perhaps, they were caught off guard, and they didn't know whether they should have cheered Li Mu, who shot such an arrow, or should have turned a blind eye to such a dramatic scene.

...

There is an essential difference between this kind of murderous arrow practiced in the chaos of the battlefield and the exquisite archery techniques that the children of the gentry practiced since childhood.

In the battlefield where red-eyed killing, there is no time or opportunity to make a bow and crossbowman always release his arrow at the best angle.

Apart from being as stable, accurate and ruthless as possible, there is no other survival rule.

Therefore, those bows and crossbowmen who are still alive after many battles are all powerful tools for killing people.

Their body movements may not be wonderful, and their movements cannot be pleasing to the eye. However, they can shoot the most accurate and powerful deadly arrows in the shortest time. This is the only way they rely on to survive from the battlefield every time.

In the first few years of joining the army, Li Mu worked as a bow and crossbowman who had been a long time.

He was once one of the best bow and crossbowmen.

...

Almost just one round and one round, Li Mu lowered his bow and arrow.

Without a moment of hesitation, he turned around and headed towards Hushan.

Lu Jianzhi looked at his back towards Hushan, his eyes were frozen, and a trance-like look appeared on his face.

After a moment, he suddenly turned around and rushed towards that direction.

The two people, one in front and one behind, climbed to the location of Hushan.

This news was quickly spread to the observation deck.

The second level of the two is also considered to be in harmony.

But I don’t know what Lu Jianzhi thought, but at the last level, he abandoned the conversation and chose to go to Hushan with Li Mu.

This result is really surprising.

Lu Guang obviously had no preparation for his son's choice in advance.

He seemed very surprised and probably a little unhappy. But soon, he concealed his emotions, sat upright, and looked serious.

Gao Qiao looked in the direction of Hushan, frowned. The others were talking, stood up one after another, looking around, curiously waiting for the final result.

...

Tiger Mountain is called "mountain", but it is actually a cave naturally formed in the abdomen of the mountain. In the past, there were beasts that were used to fight each other to please the nobles. Later, it was abandoned, but the name was preserved.

And today, this place is re-activated.

The third level of blocking is a tiger trapped in a cave.

This tiger has not only experienced many similar battles, but has dominated the country to this day, but has not been fed in the past three days.

It's fierce, you can imagine.

The tiger's den is located in a deep cave that is sunk below. The mountain wall at the entrance is steep, but the strange rocks are rugged, so you can use the power to climb up and down. The light in the cave is dim, and people stand at the entrance of the cave and cannot see the scene deep in the cave. They can only faintly hear the dull sound of tiger roars, which keep coming up.

At the entrance of the cave, there was an orc tamer with a high nose and blue eyes. He was a Hu man. Seeing Li Mu and Lu Jian appear at this pass, he came up and bowed and said, "The tiger is in the cave below. Here is the entrance, and the exit is on the west side. The two men must enter from here and exit the west, and then pass. When they meet a tiger on the way, they can kill it, but not kill it. All of them will be listened to. If a man loses the middle of the journey, he can go back and knock on the cave wall. The man guards here. When he hears, he put down the rope ladder and help the man come up."

The orc tamer pointed to a weapon stand and said, "This is for self-defense. Please use it, two men."

There were only two long sticks placed horizontally on the shelf, and nothing else was left.

Lu Jianzhi and Li Mu each took one, used his hands and feet, climbed the mountain wall, and went down the cave.

If you want to go from here to the opposite exit, you can only walk along the terrain of the cave, but the cave is like a cave in the middle of the mountain belly. The deeper it goes, the lower it becomes.

In the narrowest hinterland, the width survey only allows two horses to pass side by side.

The space is limited, and the evil tiger blocks the way, and the only self-defense weapon in his hand is only a long stick, which has limited lethality.

Although the distance between the holes in the cave is not long, the difficulty of this level can be imagined.

Lu Jianzhi and Li Mu each held long sticks, one left and one right, walking slowly towards the depths of the cave.

Although a torch was inserted into the illumination at any distance along the cave wall, the light was still dim when it went deeper. The firelight reflected the figures of the two people on the cave wall. The shadows were wide and before walking a few steps forward, suddenly, a cool breeze with a fishy aura came to the depths of the opposite side.

Then, the shadow swayed, and a tiger suddenly jumped out of the darkness, blocking the two of them.

This is a huge adult male tiger, extremely strong, with two bright green lights emitted by the tiger's eyes, which is very scary.

Hunger makes it extremely anxious and excited.
