Book of Disaster

Chapter 175: Searching for the trace, the art of archery

"Mr. Bai is highly respected and virtuous. He is truly admirable. I understand now. He must have deliberately concealed this from his family because he was afraid that his descendants would abuse his power and do evil. Mr. Bai is a man of high moral character, and he is truly incomparable to ordinary people."

However, Xu Xuansu did not expose it and continued. At the end, Xu Xuansu could not help but stand in awe.

"Miss Xu is right. Mr. Bai's mind and courage are indeed incomparable to ordinary people."

Li Yi, Zhang Chi and others were also in awe and spoke in agreement.

"..."

Bai Qi.

He was very sure that the truth was not like this, but looking at the situation before him, he estimated that nothing he said would be of any use.

However, having such a strong grandfather in the family made Bai Qi feel more or less at ease.

"…Father is busy with government affairs, and my eldest brother's whereabouts are uncertain. When the new recruits finish their training and return, I must find a way to find them and ask them about family matters. Especially grandfather, he knows nothing about his own family affairs, which is a big flaw."

Bai Qi said secretly in his heart.

Next to my ear, Xu Xuansu's voice continued to come:

"That's why I find the whole thing a little weird."

"There has been peace between the Yuan Dynasty and the Dayu Dynasty for more than ten years. There has not been a major war for a long time. It is too unusual for Dayu's scout cavalry to appear in our southwestern hinterland of the Yuan Dynasty. I am a little worried that they are planning a major operation. Given Dayu's style of doing things, once a war breaks out, I am afraid that the entire southwest, and even the Yuan Dynasty, will be involved."

Xu Xuansu's eyes were sharp. She had obviously inherited her mother's military acumen perfectly.

"Bai Qi, are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

"Ah."

Bai Qi nodded.

"That's strange. It makes sense for them to enter the southwest of our Yuan Dynasty for reconnaissance, but why did they appear in the barbarian territory?"

Xu Xuansu frowned slightly, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"Whatever the truth is, just find them."

Bai Qi pondered:

"The only thing that makes me feel strange is that even if Wu Meng and his men are incompetent, with so many cavalrymen dispatched, it doesn't make sense that they haven't discovered them yet. Either their men have already withdrawn in advance, and this is just a tentative reconnaissance, or... their commander is very powerful and is not someone who can be easily defeated."

At the end, Bai Qi raised his voice.

Everyone nodded slightly. It was obvious that they had the same inference as Bai Qi. If this was true, they would have to be careful on this trip.

"Everyone, spread out and see if they left any clues. A long time has passed, and many traces are probably gone. And if the enemy commander is really as powerful as we think, he might have covered it up. Anyway... let's give it a try and do our best."

Bai Qi said.

"...Sir, there is no need to be so troublesome."

Just when Bai Qi was about to order everyone to disperse, suddenly, Zhang Chi took a few steps forward and stopped Bai Qi.

"Oh?"

These words caused everyone to turn their heads and look at him.

"Our Zhang family is a family of archery. As an archer, the first requirement is sharp eyesight. The family has a special skill that is specifically used to track and search for the opponent's whereabouts, but it just takes a little time to prepare."

These words surprised Bai Qi greatly, and he was amazed.

The Kyudo family is indeed worthy of its reputation!

Bai Qi couldn't help but feel fortunate that he brought Zhang Chi with him.

"Very good, now it's up to you."

Bai Qi patted Zhang Chi's shoulder and stood aside.

Soon, Zhang Chi thought for a moment, opened his eyes, and then, in the shocked gaze of everyone, Zhang Chi pulled the golden bow in his hand with his bare hands.

As waves of internal energy surged out of his body, a force gathered between the index finger, middle finger and thumb of his right hand and quickly turned into milky white arrows.

Looking closely, there are actually dozens of such internal force arrows densely packed together.

Zhang Chi exerted force with his right hand and pulled the golden longbow in his hand directly into a full moon.

boom!

The jungle shook, and the next moment, in full view of everyone, dozens of energy arrows shot out, transforming into countless rays of light that shot in all directions.

For a moment, the sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard continuously.

"!!!"

Although he knew that Zhang Chi's archery skills were superb, Bai Qi still couldn't help but be deeply amazed when he saw this scene.

This is too awesome!

In the darkness, it was as if there was a thin veil like moonlight, surging across the entire area like a tide. At that moment, the entire world became much brighter.

Bai Qi and the others looked up, and everything in their field of vision suddenly became much clearer at that moment, just like reading a book in the palm of your hand. Many details that were previously unobservable were now clearly visible in their eyes.

At the same time, Bai Qi observed that Zhang Chi beside him was not looking around like them, but had his eyes slightly closed, faintly resonating with something.

"found it!"

But in a moment, Zhang Chi quickly opened his eyes, his eyes were extremely bright.

"There is a trace just to the southeast. Compared with the other traces, it is relatively new. It should have been left by them."

Everyone was greatly inspired by these words.

"Come on!"

In an instant, everyone jumped on their horses and, led by Zhang Chi, quickly headed towards the location he sensed.

This was a dense forest, filled with lush shrubs and huge trees that were so thick that a man could hug them. Bai Qi dismounted from his horse and walked forward with Zhang Chi.

At first glance, everything seemed normal, with no sign of anything unusual. There wasn't even a horse hoof print, and it didn't look like any Daewoo cavalry had been there.

However, Bai Qi knew that Zhang Chi would never do anything without a purpose.

Arriving at the location, Zhang Chi didn't say much. He put away the golden longbow in his hand and took out the long sword from his waist. As an archer, he must be prepared for close combat with the opponent at any time. This is also the most basic training of the Zhang family.

Zhang Chi inserted the sword in his hand into the soil and threw it with force, immediately lifting the bushes and soil covering it to the side.

At first glance, everyone didn't take it seriously, but the next moment, when they saw a piece of blackened charcoal exposed under the fresh bushes, everyone's heart suddenly jumped.

“It’s a stove. They used to live and cook here.”

Xu Xuansu leaped over, squatted down, and his eyes became extremely sharp.

"Bai Qi is right. The enemy's generals are very powerful. Our actions should have alerted them. Their war horses...if nothing unexpected happened, their hooves should all be wrapped with cloth and cotton."

Xu Xuansu turned around and looked at Bai Qi behind him, a hint of admiration flashed in her beautiful eyes. The others also looked at Bai Qi with the same expression.
