Chapter 109 Her actions (1)

Zhao Zimu slowly drew a feather arrow from the arrow barrel. She touched the feather of the arrow tail. Zhao Zimu couldn’t help but smile.

Because Zhao Zimu didn’t smile usually, Situ Yuanxiao was a bit dumbstruck by this faint smile and cursed in his heart, “Little fair face.” No wonder Ningan was so enchanted by him.

After Zhao Zimu drew the arrow, she didn’t shoot right away. Instead, she had the target moved fifty steps further away and placed it one hundred and fifty meters away.

Situ Yuanxiao’s eyelids jumped uncontrollably. He started at the person in front of him and wanted to ridicule her, but he felt that this person was not the kind of arrogant person. So, he suppressed the restlessness in his heart and waited quietly for her to release the arrow.

She turned her head to Situ Yuanxiao and raised the corners of her lips slight. Situ Yuanxiao almost jumped up and suddenly want to tell her, what are you smiling at? If you continue to smile, I will sell you to the male brothel!

Zhao Zimu’s body looked pliableand tough, and thin and weak at the same time, but it let people feel that there was a magical aura coming from her body. She lightly raised the longbow in her and put the arrow against the string. Her gaze immediately became sharp with a movement of her hands like the arrow in her hand that became one with her.

Some soldiers who were veterans in shooting couldn’t help but exclaim when they saw this imposing manner of Zhao Zimu. Their hearts couldn’t help but stir up a bit because they were clear that if someone could use a bow and arrow to this degree, his skills had already reached the level of the gods.

This kind of shooter may only appear once in a decade. If there was one now, what kind of sensation would that be?

Someone who thought that Zhao Zimu was deliberately mystifying things began to boo and jeered at her, “Hey, you are deliberately mystifying things because you know that you will lose, right? We won’t fall for this, right?”

He asked the person next to him.

“Right, wasn’t it just losing. What is there to be afraid of? At worst, take off your clothes and offer His Highness a humble apology and ask His Highness to spare you. Perhaps, His Highness will be magnanimous and will let you off this time.”

“Hurry up, if you are not sure, then, admit defeat. Stop procrastinating like a coward.”

There were really people who would speak everything. Zhao Zimu looked once at Situ Yuanxiao and smiled again. Then, she moved her gaze to the target a hundred and fifty meters away. Her face tensed. The arrow in her hand flew out.

Boom! Boom!

Two sounds could be heard almost simultaneously. Afterwards, everyone was shocked to find that the bow in Zhao Zimu’s hand was broken. A feathered arrow still shook and was stuck firmly in the center of the target a hundred fifty meters away. Everyone’s hearts trembled as if the arrow was stuck in their hearts.

She broke the bow to get a sharp arrow. No one knew how she did it, but everyone was shocked. The whole military ground fell silent for an instant and just stared at the person in the field.

Before they could react, Zhao Zimu quickly scrapped two bows and shot two arrows. Each on hit the center of the target a hundred and fifty meters away.

All three arrows hit the center and the range was much longer than Situ Yuanxiao’s. The expression on Situ Yuanxiao’s face changed countless of times. Yet, Zhao Zimu left after shooting. She didn’t care about other people’s reaction at all. She just looked once at Situ Yuanxiao and walked away unhurriedly. She didn’t mention the bet with him and was calm and collected.

However, her calm and collected leaving figure was firmly imprinted in Situ Yuanxiao’s eyes, making his eyes flicker non-stop.

Some people who made fun of her just now seemed to have been scalded with fire and their faces flushed. This also showed that disposing of a matter was always better than only talks.

Chen Jin request for Zhao Zimu’s merits was approved. What had happened on the grassland caused her to be promoted smoothly to the commander of a troop of hundred. From then on, the soldiers of a troop of hundred were under her command.

When there was nothing to do, Zhao Zimu would take her people to stroll around the border. Then, she drilled the troop like all the other commanders. There was nothing different.

However, after some days, everyone found out that the horses in their camps had increased and the equipment also got better. Their weapons were different from the soldiers of the other troops. If one looked closely when they draw their sword, one would be shocked to find that the weapons they used were all made of refined iron by craftsmen. One could even feel the coldness of the weapons under the sunlight.

Many people who had seen it were very puzzled. This troop used such fine equipment, could it be that their commander gave them special treatment?

Therefore, some of the commanders of a troop of hundred went to ask Yun Sen. Yun Sen’s answer was simple. He shooed everyone who dared to come to his door away. He only left them one sentence, “I don’t have money. If I have money, will I take it out and spend it to equip a group of hundred?!”

Hence, all the commanders of a troop of hundred stopped looking for Yun Sen and instead focused Zhao Zimu’s troop.

Furthermore, many people found out that aura of the Zhao Zimu’s soldiers became different from those of other troops. Just by looking at them, people would feel a murderous aura and ruthlessness coming from them.

This kind of murderous aura and ruthlessness were impossible for people who didn’t fight often in battles to have.

No one were able to find out what was going on because Chen Jin issued an order that no one could meddle in Zhao Zhong’s affairs. Therefore, even if some people knew a bit, they didn’t understand thoroughly. That was even the case for her direct superior Yun Sen.

At one point, on a not far away place on the grassland, a ghostly black troop appeared that caused people to be terror-stricken. They beheaded the brave Xiongnu warriors, plundered their valuables and were lewd with their women. They were the monsters that had appeared suddenly on the grassland. They didn’t shrink from any crime and brought fear and nightmares to some tribes on the grassland.

This ghostly black troop often appeared on the grassland in the middle of the night and roamed at the border. Because they were small in number, quick and were adept in concealing themselves, no one was able to catch them.

This troop of hundred was like a ghost. Everyone wore black clothes, black armor and the faces were covered with a black mask. they wouldn’t fight the Xiongnu directly. They would use the cover of the night and give them a fatal blow when they were caught off guard.
