Thinking

Chapter 73

Qi Si didn't understand her anymore, but she was very generous, and she didn't hold grudges against this little servant who stole her limelight.

Jiang Xuan whispered: "Look, women are like this."

Qi Si smiled and said, "If she's interested in you, it's easy to handle. Within a quarter of an hour, she can leave without being sad or imaginary."

Jiang Xuan almost choked on the tea: "I can't bear it."

In the first round of each competition, there are extremely exquisite lottery heads. Before the start of the first horseback riding, the horseman will hold up the lottery head and show it around the field as usual. The treasure amazed everyone's eyes.

The holy artifact of the Tocharian religion?The treasure worn by the legendary beautiful Luna boy?

Everyone was convinced that such an exquisite and glamorous item matched the origin of this legend.

The widest part of the armband is about one palm wide, and the arc tail gradually narrows, like a crescent moon. There are two silk-carved layers, the inner layer is pure silver, and the inner layer is slender silver wire and silver foil. Sitting connected.The outer layer is gold, which shines faintly in the sun, engraving the laurel branches of the moon god.

And a red gemstone carved into sharp edges and corners is embedded in it, and several sapphires as clear as deep space serve as the inner layer of foil.

The whole arm bracelet is one piece, without any sinking, but it is really as delicate and pure as a moon god.

Obviously it is gold, silver and precious stones, but it can carve out a pure and light texture, and Qi Si can't help but admire it.

After the horseman showed the treasure, the drums and drums were beating on the field, and the vastness filled the sky. Only then did people regain their senses from the light of the treasure.

There are already a dozen good horses and warriors waiting at the starting point on the field. They are all the bravest archers and horse trainers in the world. The horses are also of pure blood, with a rustling mane, and their fur is healthy and lustrous in the sun, with their heads held high.

From a distance, I saw Yuan Feng among them, and a pure black horse under him, probably led a war horse from the camp. He sat on the horse and nodded and talked with the people beside him. Many acquainted nobles wanted to come to participate in the competition. children.

His skin was extremely white, and his mixed-race facial features were profound. Facing the sun, his whole body seemed to be covered with a faint light.

There was a commotion among the crowd, King Daliang on the viewing platform smiled and said, "It's been a few years since I've seen Ji Huang play, this kid is getting more and more low-key."

The courtiers next to him echoed.

With the horns together, people focused their attention, and the horses stomped lightly on the spot, ready to go.

The bright red flag in the referee's hand "swished", the sound of the whip was like lightning, and the divine horse galloped forward with high hoofs, and the most noble horses on the Great Liang Grassland shot out like sharp swords in an instant, clanging their hooves Where the sound passed, a cloud of golden dust was raised.

The crowd boiled all of a sudden, shouting for the horses of the contestants. Many people set up bets and bet heavily. As powerful as ever, he was tempted by the high odds and bet on other players.

Asgu slapped his forehead: "Ah! I forgot to place a bet."

Yan Jisi glanced at Jiang Xuan, and said lightly: "The banker is his own, and there is still time to make a supplementary note."

A Sigu was stunned for a moment, followed Yan Jisi's eyes to look over, and said pleasantly, "You opened the order?"

Jiang Xuan was sitting lazily watching the fun, but as soon as Yan Jisi said something, he turned his attention away, looked at Yan Jisi, and nodded at A Sigu: "Well, do you want to raise?"

Qi Si: "..."

Asigu was overjoyed, and dragged Jiang Xuan to place a bet, feeling elated.

The horse gallops all the way, along the route marked by the colored flags, and it takes [-] miles to go back and forth. First, you will fight for your foot endurance, and then you will go to the field as soon as you return.

There were only a few good horses of various colors left behind. People stared into the distance and waited anxiously for their return.

Finally, a black Wusun horse from the leading town returned first, followed by a golden brown horse with a tall head, and Yuan Feng's pure black horse was in third place.

A Sigu was anxious: "Jiang Xuan, you didn't make a secret appointment with him, did you trade in the competition?"

Jiang Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No!"

After returning to the paddock, they went straight along the track. The rider and the horse seemed to be in one mind, and they cooperated tacitly.

The further back, the higher the wooden fence, which made everyone's hearts rise to their throats. The riders and horses in the back were inevitably exhausted after running back. From time to time, the horse kicked the wooden fence and stopped regretfully.

Princess Jin Xi closely followed the people on the field, and the silk handkerchief in her hand was wrinkled.

Yuan Feng took his time and gradually passed the second golden brown horse.

As soon as the wooden barrier passed, there was an obstacle at the same height as the riders in front of them. They either crouched on their horses or jumped off the saddle, Xianshu avoided the obstacle.

But the next item is not easy. Thirty archers beside the track have been shooting arrow feathers non-stop since the competitors passed by. The arrows are naturally removed, and the arrow tips are painted with colored paint. , if there is a little more paint on the body, points will be deducted.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuan Feng didn't like to participate in the competition. He disliked walking through the rain of arrows stained with oil paint.

Yuan Feng took off the longbow on his shoulder with his backhand, swung it away with the bow body, blocked all the arrows, slipped sideways from time to time, used the horse's body as a cover, and shot several straight arrows with the backhand bow.

After rushing out of the rain of arrows, Yuan Bing's clothes and black horse were all clean, except that the horse's hind legs were stained with red paint. I was distracted and missed it.

After passing through several obstacles, there were several remaining riders on the open field, most of them were covered in oil paint, and they were a little embarrassed. Everyone didn't mind, and they all laughed.

Yuan Feng was on equal footing with the Bise horse player who arrived at the paddock first.Asgu said: "That man is the horse trainer of Niruwin's department, and he has won the first place in riding and archery in recent years."

The man looked lean, tall and thin, and his movements were agile. He controlled the reins with both hands, as if the reins were alive.

There was a moment of silence on the field, and then several attendants brought several large cages, and several falconers led several eagles with sharp eyes and shiny wings, and they were separated in several places in the paddock.

Yuan Feng took off the longbow and held it in his hand, drew an arrow with his backhand, and hung it loosely.

An order broke through the field, and the attendants opened the cage door in unison, and countless starlings in the cage flapped their wings and flew out, like pieces of dark clouds floating in the air.

The falcon trainers around also raised their arms high and whistled sharply. The eagle's huge wings spread out, setting off a gust of air and heading straight into the sky.

Among the countless starlings, about [-] have their tail feathers painted. The contestant must shoot the most marked starlings to win.

Starlings are small in size, and they always gather in groups in the sky. It is not easy to find the marked ones. However, several goshawks circled in the sky, following orders, and drove the clusters of starlings back and forth. Download faster.

Riding their horses and bows, the riders scattered in all directions following the direction and rhythm of the flock of birds.

Yuan Feng didn't move, he sat on the horse's back and raised his eyes to see the target. First he drew a sword, and the bow opened six points. The arrow was injected with internal force, pierced the clouds and went straight up, directly splitting the flock of birds in two with an invisible force.

The flock of birds was divided into two batches, so it was easy to find the marked ones, and they would not be in a mess. The falconer also changed his order.

At this time, a contestant spotted a starling and quickly shot it down, and the crowd cheered.

Yuan Feng took another pair of arrows, bowed eight points, facing the sun, half of his face was covered, his tall nose bridge and deep gray-green eyes were so handsome and dazzling.

The two arrows were fired at the same time, and the flock of birds was divided again. The eagle drove away the starlings, and four gray clouds rolled in midair.

The horse trainer of the Neruwin tribe also saw the right moment, drew his bow and shot down the two starlings.

Yuan Bing turned around, turned his back to the sun, changed his bow from vertical to horizontal, held the longbow in front of his arm, raised his chin slightly, clamped the horse's belly, and the black war horse under him neighed and hoofed, and he shot an arrow at the same time Arrows one after another, the arrows go out, the backhand draws the arrows and sets the bow, the arrows fly one after another, half of them startle the flock of birds, half of them spot the marked ones, and shoot them accurately.

The horse archers in the paddock followed him one after another, shooting again and again, and the competition was extremely fierce for a while.

On and off the pitch, Hongji Rawang is clearly more dazzling than a few years ago.Princess Jinxi was fascinated, and Bai You's eyes followed Yuan Bing deeply.

Seeing the expressions of these two people, Jiang Xuan thought to himself that this is a good show.

Asgu applauded again and again, and finally his heart fell to the ground, and he began to calculate how much he had earned from this game.

At the end of the competition, Yuan Feng won the first prize without any surprise. The contestants on the field did not return disappointed. They each gained a little.

The Moon God bracelet was bestowed on Yuan Biao by the King of Great Liang himself, Yuan Biao leaned forward, put his hands on his shoulders and saluted, with an elegant posture and a natural rebellion, even when he saluted, he was not humble.

The Luna arm bracelet was wrapped in snow-white fine silk, and the maid carefully put it into the box.

This competition started another round of the climax of the Nayar event. Until the next round of riding and shooting began, people were still talking about it. The troubadours had already plucked the strings and sang the songs of the new work. The inspiration was natural. It is the brave figure of the young and handsome King Hongjira riding a horse and holding a bow.

A Sigu was very happy and made a lot of money.Jiang Xuan, the banker, also made a lot of money. Before the start of the game, he spread the news, which aroused people's speculation that Yuan Biao hadn't participated in the Nayar event for a long time, and might not be as good as before, which scattered the bettors.

He has always made money in a silent voice, Yan Jisi's eyes swept over him as if there was nothing.

The corners of Jiang Xuan's eyes twitched slightly, with a flirtatious spirit: "It seems that you also remember me very clearly."

Yan Jisi smiled lightly, like melting snow: "You made a lot of money in the Western Regions in silence, and the method of sitting in the dark is naturally unforgettable at first sight."

Jiang Xuan bent his eyes and asked, "Is that all you remember?"

After I finished speaking, I regretted it again. Why did I forget my appearance as soon as I was proud?

Yan Jisi smiled: "Of course it's more than that. I'm afraid there are still many people in Palu City who still miss your mercy back then. Young Master Du's tearful farewell by the Feiyu River, which one is not memorable?"

Jiang Xuan didn't care at all, leaned on his head with one hand, smiled lazily and slyly, looked into the distance and said: "It's just a thing in the past, people will always be different."

Yan Jisi looked at him, avoiding his naturally affectionate eyes, and stopped talking.

Yuan Feng came back, and the eldest prince happened to come over too, saying that he wanted to take a closer look at the Tochara's moon god arm bracelet, and seeing Princess Jinxi sitting here, he said strangely: "In previous years, you would have looked at it for at most one morning before leaving. , are you very interested this time?"

He looked at Yuan Feng again, his eyes wandered between the two of them a few times, and he said with a smile: "Linhuang spreads everywhere that the father wants to order mandarin ducks, I think it really makes sense."
