Chapter 62 Konjac Sauce
"Um?"
Pei Jing frowned slightly, and stopped leaving. Others subconsciously stopped to watch.
The girl with Liu Yemei didn't seem to realize that she was the center of attention, she still picked up the short bow expressionlessly, stood upright, and hit the arrow.
"duh—"
The sound of hitting the target sounded, and the white feather arrow hit the bullseye of the short-range target accurately.
"duh—"
The sound of hitting the target was continuous, and the girl with willow leaf eyebrows methodically fired twelve arrows in a row.
"oh?"
Pei Jing raised her eyebrows. From his eyes, she could see that the other party was using a light bow with a small number of stones.
Being able to shoot so steadily and accurately is entirely due to skill, experience, and calculation.
Snapped!
The willow-browed girl put down her short bow, inserted the tail of her long bow into the soil, and untied the silk hairband on her head.
Use a hair tie to firmly tie the middle end of the bow body to the stake on the ground,
Then put the arrow on, half kneeling on the ground, pulling the bowstring vigorously with both hands, squinting his eyes, and staring at the silk hairband fluttering in the wind on the stake and the archery target in the distance.
"Duh!"
The girl let go of her hands, the bowstring rebounded suddenly, and the white-feathered arrow shot out rapidly, drawing an arc trajectory in the air, and hit the bullseye of the far-end archery target accurately.
‘Due to the low strength, I chose to open the longbow with both hands to improve the shooting range and reduce the influence of wind on the arrow.’
Li Ang said in astonishment: 'But this is a bit unscientific, right? Can you really use the flying trajectory of the silk hairband to calculate the wind speed and wind force to correct the compensation angle? Humanoid computer?'
The people around gathered more and more, but the girl with the willow eyebrow eyebrows was still not in a hurry, she drew her long bow and fired arrows continuously.
Thirty rounds hit thirty, of which twenty-nine arrows hit the bull's-eye.
The jaws of the students surrounding Pei Jing were about to drop from shock, and only the students recommended by the Ministry of War were left in the audience to applaud loudly.
A student murmured: "Hiss, this score can be ranked in the top three in the entire history of the school."
"If only the accuracy is counted, it is the fourth in history."
Holding a booklet to register the results, the professor of the Goatee Academy said in admiration: "It's really amazing."
"Twenty-nine hit the bull's-eye and the fourth?"
A student asked in surprise: "Are the top three arrows a bull's-eye?"
"certainly."
The goatee teacher curled his lips and said: "The top three archery subjects in the first entrance examination in history are Su Zi two hundred years ago, and the first Xuegong Siye who explored the 100,000 barren mountains one hundred and fifty years ago. Learn from Miyayama.
All three of them had thirty arrows, each with a bull's-eye, but Su Zi was even better—in order to convince those students who thought he was recruited into the academy without taking the exam, he specially opened a strong bow, and every arrow pierced through the bull's-eye . "
"this"
All the students were dumbfounded,
The girl with willow leaf eyebrows seemed dissatisfied, stood up silently, untied the ribbon wrapped around the stake, glanced at Li Ang, turned and left.
Why are you looking at me? Is there a flower on my face?
Li Ang curled his lips, greeted Song Shaoyuan and others, put the bow and arrow back on the shelf, and walked towards the mathematics examination room.
——
"Can't see again."
Chai Cuiqiao watched Li Ang disappear into the pavilion, smacked her lips, tilted her head and calculated silently.
Li Ang's results in scriptures and policy questions are definitely good. Judging from the speed of the bay red horse, Yuke should also be among the best.
Even if the archery department is only at the middle level, overall, it will definitely pass the preliminary examination.
The next step is to see how many extra points you can get from optional subjects such as mathematics, and how many places you can rank on the list for the re-examination.
"It's good to be able to live, it's good to be able to live."
Chai Cuiqiao breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed, and subconsciously sniffled.
The aroma of food.
She turned around to look, but saw the end of the long corridor at the far end, pushing a dining cart filled with wooden food boxes. The types of food ranged from Biluo, soup cakes, dim sum, to meat and vegetarian dishes.
Many family members of candidates have already started to spend money to buy meals from the dining car.
Just a little hungry.
Chai Cuiqiao weighed the purse and purse, hesitating which food box to buy.
"that."
Li Leling's voice sounded from behind,
Chai Cuiqiao turned her head and found Li Leling sitting behind two long tables with a smile on her face. The tables were filled with all kinds of snacks, pastries, fruits, and drinks. "Can you eat with me? I am alone. Can't eat it."
"Well"
Chai Cuiqiao blinked her eyes, logically speaking, she shouldn't eat free food, but this is the school palace, the safest place in the entire Yu Kingdom, so she should be fine, not to mention wasting food is an intolerable sin.
"Well, respect is worse than obedience."
Chai Cuiqiao thought for a few seconds, then happily sat next to Li Leling, picked up a small piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and threw it into her mouth, then pointed to a small jar with agate-colored bright red jam next to her, "What is this? "
"this is"
Li Leling thought for a while, "It seems to be the betel sauce from Nanyue Kingdom? It is used to mix soup cakes at home. Try it, it is a little spicy."
"Konjac sauce? I seem to have heard of it. Is it expensive?"
Chai Cuiqiao was not too polite, and poured a spoonful of bright red jam into the bowl, "It tastes sweet and spicy, and it's quite delicious."
"It shouldn't be very expensive."
Li Leling tilted her head. She knew that Konjac sauce was a rare tribute from the Nanyue Kingdom to the royal family of Yu. There was a small bowl of 2,000 guan in the market, and it was often priceless.
But she is not sure whether something worth two thousand pennies is considered expensive - she hardly needs money.
"Let my Dalang buy a few bottles some other day."
Chai Cuiqiao nodded and praised the taste of the betel sauce, then looked at another plate of green cold vegetables, "What is this?"
Li Leling recalled for a while, "This is the wave ridge, which comes from the Langqiong edict of the six imperial edicts in the southern border of the state of Zhou."
"Oh, the taste is okay."
Chai Cuiqiao nodded approvingly, and asked in confusion: "But why did the people of Langqiong choose a vegetable as their country name? Do they like to eat this kind of vegetable?"
"Hey, didn't we use vegetables as the name of the country?"
Li Leling was amused by Chai Cuiqiao's strange question, and explained with a smile: "Because the bolen vegetable comes from Langqiong, that's why it's called Langqiong Boleng."
Maybe because he laughed too hard, Li Leling's face turned pale for no reason, and he subconsciously stretched out his left hand to press the table to support his body.
The maids and servants on the side were scared out of their wits and rushed forward one after another, but Li Leling hurriedly waved his hands away, "I, I'm fine."
She took a low breath while sitting on the seat, her face gradually turned rosy, and she leaned back on the back of the chair.
"Are you OK?"
Chai Cuiqiao looked at Li Leling worriedly, "Are you going to call the teacher from the academy?"
"No, I'm just... not born with good health."
Li Leling forced a smile, but the sadness in his eyes was still lingering.
"If you are not in good health, you should seek medical treatment if you are sick."
Chai Cuiqiao said seriously: "My Dalang is the best doctor in the whole country of Yu and even in the whole world, he can cure any disease, come to our Baoan hall.
Cough, I almost forgot that the security hall is not open yet.
Anyway, someday you come to Huaidefang Twelfth Street and let my Dalang show you. "
"It's really not necessary, my disease cannot be cured by a doctor."
Li Leling smiled slightly, looking at the lively and noisy pasture in the distance,
The helpless expressions of the imperial doctors and the sighs of the parents appeared in my mind.
Congenital heart disease, hard to cure,
Li Leling didn't know either. Yesterday, she begged her mother several times to allow her to go out of the palace to watch the first exam of the school. It was really to observe the environment of the school in advance.
It is still to see those peers who are full of vigor and can run and jump freely on the grass field.
At any time, it is possible to die from a broken heart.
Pollen is spinach, which was introduced from Tianzhu in the early Tang Dynasty.
Betel sauce is also a sauce that has appeared in history and is made of betel leaves from South Vietnam, and the price is extremely expensive
