People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 49 Hundred Steps
It doesn't take long to string the bow, and Li Yao is very experienced, so it can be more relaxed.

It is not troublesome to wind the string, but it is troublesome to be familiar with the feel. Only if you know enough about it, can it shoot an arrow that is accurate enough and deadly enough when you need it.

The whole afternoon, Li Yao played with Chi Yan, it can be said that he couldn't put it down, for a person who loves bows, it is definitely the bow of love in his dreams.

It was not until night that Li Yao put Chi Yan back into the wooden box, and he himself, after washing up, went to bed.

By the way, in the process of washing Li Yao, he used the latest type of pancreatic soap, which not only has sufficient decontamination ability, but also suitable for washing hair, face, bathing... all can be used.

Regardless of its shape or color, even its taste, it is already close to soap...

Too bad pancreas soap is not soap!

As for the soap, neither plant ash nor saponin water can fully saponify the oil and turn it into real soap. Jiang Yuner is still thinking about new materials.

At present, pancreas soap is still used for personal use, mainly by the Qiang tribe, who are unwilling to replace edible livestock with inedible pancreas soap.

And these years, the winter is getting longer and longer, the wind and snow are getting bigger and bigger, and even survival is getting more and more difficult, who cares whether it is clean or not.

The market for this soap should still be in the Central Plains. At the same time, the sales target is not ordinary people, but the wealthy class. They have already met their survival needs, so they pursue the quality of life.

But now that he is not well-known, maybe he will find a great Confucian to speak for him in the future, and then he will be able to open up the Central Plains market in one fell swoop.

The next morning!

Li Yao had already arrived at the school grounds, holding the wooden box in one hand, and leading the war horse in the other, with an excited expression on his face, impatient to shoot his bow.

Now Li Yao didn't even eat breakfast, he just wanted to try to use the red flame riding and shooting as soon as possible.

He opened the wooden box again, reached out and took out the bow, and then turned over and rode on his horse.

"drive!"

Li Yao let out a soft drink, and at the same time clamped his legs slightly, and the horse under him began to gallop quickly.

Instead of rushing to open the bow, I kept changing the left hand for the right hand and the right hand for the left hand, feeling the difference from before.

Immediately, Li Yao thought in his heart:

"Sure enough, because Chiyan has more weight, and is longer and bigger, if you want to shoot left and right, you will not be flexible enough."

Then Li Yao really tried to draw the bow. He held the bow in his left hand, drew the arrow in his right hand, put the arrow in his hand and drew the bow, with his shoulders flat, three points and one line, the tail of the arrow, the arrow, the target...the three were all in a straight line, and at this moment he suddenly let go.

call out!
In a blink of an eye, the arrow brushed against the target and was inserted into the rejecting horse. Not surprisingly, the first arrow missed the target.

Moving his sore arms, the bow's pulling force was astonishing, and Li Yao had to use all his strength to pull it away.

Being able to have this kind of strength is also because Li Yao insists on exercising, and the nutrition he needs can completely keep up.

As for the arrow's miss, it was completely within Li Yao's expectation, and any reason may eventually lead to this result.

After a moment of reflection, he steered the horse and turned around. With his current superb riding skills, he can stabilize his figure and perform many difficult movements without using his hands but only his feet.

Change the left hand to the right hand, repeat the bow again, set the arrow and draw the bow, put the shoulders flat, three points and one line, and let go directly after aiming.

call out!
But this time it was the same, the arrow brushed the target and stuck in the rejecting horse.

The second arrow missed the target...

Repeat the bow again!
The third arrow missed the target...

Repeat the bow again!
The fourth arrow missed the target...

Repeat the bow again!
The fifth arrow missed the target...

Five arrows in a row, the arrow misses the target!
Li Yao frowned, but still didn't get impatient, and planned to continue to try, but at this moment, a servant suddenly came over.

Seeing Li Yao, he immediately saluted respectfully, and then shouted loudly outside the school grounds:

"Young Master, someone died last night, and his son only reported the news this morning. It was that Mo Chong. Mistress asked me to come over and let you know!"

what? !

Li Yao felt unbelievable, Mr. Mo was still talking to him yesterday, but why was it so sudden in one night.

His expression was a little numb, and he lamented that the fate of life is impermanent, he was alive one day, and died the next day.

Suddenly holding Chi Yan forcefully, even though Mo Lao is dead now, Li Yao can still keep him alive.

"drive!"

Li Yao galloped out again, and tried again to draw the bow, nock the arrow, draw the string, aim, let go...all actions were done in one go.

call out!
In a blink of an eye, the arrow shot across the sky and directly inserted into the target. Although it was slightly off-center, it did not miss the target this time.

And just now, Li Yao was in a moving state riding on the horse. He was nearly a hundred steps away from the target, and he was still able to hit the target.

He has almost mastered the hundred-step piercing!

Seeing the arrow finally hit the target, Li Yao was not as happy as he imagined, and immediately looked down at the strong bow in his hand.

Mo Lao will live forever, and his name will be accompanied by his works, and will be circulated among the world forever.

With the blood of the world's heroes, forge Chi Yan's unparalleled name in the world.

……

Mo Lao's death did not cause much impact. After all, his status was low, just an ordinary bow maker.

But as an old man, who is still loyal and has made contributions to the Li family, the Li family also gave him the last respect for such an old man.

Zhao Yan went there in person and gave a piece of silk to wrap the body for burial.

In fact, Zhao Yan still feels very sorry, after all, this is the best bow maker in the clan, but it is a pity that life or death cannot be decided by others.

In the end, the funeral was not extravagant, but very simple, and the best burial object was probably a piece of silk cloth given by Zhao Yan.

After all, Confucian etiquette does not have much influence in the grasslands. It is better to have a thin burial than a thick burial, leaving wealth to the living instead of taking it to the grave and handing it over to the dead.

Profound burial is filial piety.

Not burial is unfilial.

Filial piety has changed from morality to a method of oppression. Aristocratic families directly use it to seek official positions. Rich burials are filial piety, and filial piety brings prestige. If the prestige is high, you can be filial and honest, and finally you can enter the official career.

For example, Yuan Shao kept filial piety for his mother for three years and then for his father for three years, for a total of six years.

As long as this is the case, he can become a model for the world, and when he enters the official career again, he will naturally be a high-ranking official with a generous salary.

Not having a decent burial is unfilial. In order not to be poked in the back, many ordinary people can only grit their teeth and carry out a generous burial, first selling the house, then the land, and finally selling themselves... Bankruptcy only in exchange for a word of filial piety.

It is so simple to turn people into worthless people. These filial ordinary people will eventually become tenants, like cattle and horses, like slaves.

This etiquette, it really eats people.

In fact, the grassland is still good, and it’s okay if you don’t follow the etiquette. Everyone can live more easily.
