Chapter 36 - Preparations for War

At the north gate, Chen Ke and his two bodyguards Ding San and Ding Si joined together and flew out of the city.

The flying army of the demon clan mainly attacked the southern city line, and there was almost no fighting in the north city.

However, for safety reasons, Chen Ke bought four flares from the city defenders, so that he could send out a signal for help in case of danger.

The spring scenery outside the city is just right, the spring days are warm and the spring scenery is boundless.

The hills are large and small, far and near, high and low, like moldy steamed buns, covered with green hair.

The paddy fields between the hills are like mirrors inlaid in the ridges, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.

The walking farmers seem to be plowing the sky, and they seem to be planting seedlings on the white clouds.

  "Rabbit!"

After passing a small forest, Chen Ke's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly put on the ring and took off the bow and arrow.

  With his head tilted and his eyes squinted, he clumsily pulled the bowstring and suddenly let go.

  Woof!

The bowstring trembled violently, and the arrow was as fast as a meteor

  and disappeared in an instant. Eh, I missed it.

Chen Ke was very disappointed and pulled out another arrow from the quiver on his back.

Ding San and Ding Si pretended that they saw nothing. Tie Niu held his forehead in pain, turned over and dismounted, and came to Chen Ke's mount.

He picked up an arrow from the ground and handed it to Chen Ke:

"Master, use this one, don't waste it!"

Chen Ke smiled embarrassedly, I was thinking, how come the arrow disappeared in a flash.

He took the arrow, and a cluster of electric currents suddenly jumped in his mind.

The purple electric current rushed down, quickly dispersed, and flowed to the whole body.

The mystery of archery was truly activated at this time, allowing Chen Ke's body to form memories.

Pull the string, raise the bow, pull the string, aim, and release the arrow!

A series of actions, smooth and seamless, all done in one go.

  Woof!

The arrow flew through the air, the arrowhead flashing a little cold light, and accurately pierced the hare's neck.

  Hit!

Chen Ke looked at the rabbit lying on the ground, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, with a sense of comfort all over his body.

Tie Niu was dumbfounded, actually, he hit it? !

Ding San and Ding Si also looked surprised. It was not uncommon to hit a rabbit at this distance, but it was rare for Chen Ke.

And they found that Chen Ke's archery skills were the standard archery skills of military archers, very standardized.

Ding San asked:

"Mr. Chen, the one who taught you archery was the son of a general in the Northern Army, right?"

  Can you see that?

Chen Ke nodded. Fan Daocheng's father was the general commander of the northern military, so there was nothing wrong with that.

Ding San suggested,

"Shuzhou is located in the southwest, with a humid climate. Bowstrings are mostly made of smooth, elastic silk and bristles.

The best material for the ring that holds the string is the horn of a unicorn. The hole is large and rough, so it is easy to sweat and will not slip when the string is wound..."

  Chen Ke and Tie Niu listened on the side, amazed.

They didn't expect that there were so many details in archery.

Chen Ke wrote them down one by one. These little details were all useful for him when he took the exam.

  At any time, attitude is very important.

It's the same windfall, some people use the money to live a life of luxury, and some people use the money to start a business. This is the difference in attitude.

Although Chen Ke has a golden finger and has no intention of starting a business, it doesn't mean that he doesn't need to learn.

On the contrary, in order to live a life of luxury in the long run, he still needs to learn what he should learn.

Several people chatted and shot arrows along the way, and were not in a hurry to travel.

When they arrived at the Chen family farm, Chen Ke had already shot five rabbits, and Tie Niu had also harvested three.

The housekeeper Chen Xiaofu had been waiting at the gate of the farm for a long time, and welcomed everyone in with a smile.

"Uncle Chen, is the chariot ready?"

"Everything is ready. I have arranged it carefully, just like the examination room in the academy."

.. .. ..

At noon, Lichun and Liqiu came chattering, followed by three large carts.

The first cart, books and exam preparation materials.

The second cart, daily necessities for a short stay.

The third cart, a small coffin containing dead fish.

While the two maids were preparing for the funeral, Chen Ke completed the first chariot charge.

To be precise, the chariot rushed over and Chen Ke was thrown out.

  "Master, are you okay?"

Tie Niu ran forward and shouted loudly in the wide open space.

  Chen Ke was stunned by the fall.

He blinked hard a few times before he could see the Tie Niu who was close at hand. He got up from the ground with a grin on his face, and looked at his torn trouser legs with horror.

Fortunately, he had dragon scales to protect him, otherwise, his thighs and calves would be bloody.

With the powerful defense of the "Dragon Scale Swirling Armor", Chen Ke was completely relieved and could work hard.

Rejecting Tie Niu's help, he moved a few times and limped towards the chariot.

The ancient chariot had two tall wheels and a short wooden box in the middle, where people stood.

On the handle, there was a large wooden pole, which was equivalent to a steering wheel, to control the two horses pulling the chariot.

Ancient chariots did not have rotating axles, let alone shock-absorbing springs. In order to drive the chariot steadily, not only did they need great strength, but also skills were indispensable.

Moreover, the examination in the academy adopts a three-in-one assessment. Candidates have to drive, shoot arrows, and sprint with spears.

What originally required the coordinated efforts of three people had to be completed by one person.

The reason why Chen Ke was thrown out just now was that he was anxious for a moment. After letting go of the handrail, he wanted to grab the spear stuck on the side.

  Coincidentally, the carriage just passed a bump, and then he flew out.

I can't be anxious this time. Well, I have to eat one bite at a time.

Chen Ke rubbed his shoulders, jumped up, and jumped onto the chariot again.

  Go, go!

The two fast horses ran again, faster and faster, and Chen Ke's ears rang with a whirring sound.

After running three laps and experiencing countless bumps, Chen Ke finally activated his memory.

His legs relaxed and bumped with the bumps of the chariot. The hands that controlled the "steering wheel" also relaxed, no longer twisting, but going with the flow.

Chen Ke looked up at the scarecrow on the side of the road ahead, and his body gradually stood up.

  Ten meters, eight meters, five meters!

With lightning speed, Chen Ke pulled out the spear that was inserted beside him and thrust it forward.

  Puff!

The spear whizzed out, accurately piercing the scarecrow's chest and directly picking up the scarecrow.

  Hahahaha.

  Ah...

  Bang!

The consequence of getting carried away was that Chen Ke was thrown out again.

  ...

  Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three consecutive arrows hit three scarecrows. Chen Ke grabbed the handrail and finally stood firm.

Electric currents surged in his body, bringing a tingling feeling.

What was puzzling was that the skill collection of "Six Arts of a Gentleman" was still not activated.

  Chen Ke thought about it and suddenly realized.

The six arts of a gentleman are etiquette, music, charioteering, archery, calligraphy, and mathematics.

There is also a "music", which he has not activated yet.

The instrument that Fan Daocheng is proficient in is the flute, which is easy to find and there is not much difference.

Soon Tie Niu found a bamboo flute, handed it to the young master, and stood aside and watched curiously.

The young master is not crazy today, but has become magical.

Maybe, perhaps, maybe, Haotian Academy is a place that breeds magic.

Sure enough, after a period of pig-killing-like howling, beautiful music finally floated out between the flute holes.

  Ding!

"Congratulations, you have activated all the skills of the "Six Arts of a Gentleman", increased the upper limit of mental power by 1,000 points, and rewarded the upper limit of mental power by 300 points!"

  1,300 points!!!
