Chapter 9 Throwing the Pot and Throwing the Arrow
According to historical records, throwing pots was a throwing game played by ancient scholars and officials during banquets. It was quite popular during the Warring States Period and was re-produced by the Tang Dynasty.
The King of Qin issued an order and acted immediately on his left and right. In a short while, the two throwing pots were carried into the large tent by the maid. The throwing pots, the neck of the pot was seven inches long, the diameter was two and a half inches high, the height of the pot was one foot and two inches, the load was five liters, and the belly of the pot was five inches.
After careful calculation, the diameter of this throwing pot is very small. It is probably not a simple matter to put arrows into it at a long distance, and it is even more difficult to win today by overcoming the heroes.
Especially Li Shimin, Yuchi Jingde and others are all masters of throwing pots, while Li Chunfeng heard about the game "rolling pots". With this alone, Li Chunfeng was far behind and could not see any hope of winning. If Li Chunfeng wanted to win the final victory of the throwing pot game, he would be lucky.
Li Shimin and Changsun left their seats and came to the center of the tent with everyone. Looking at the throwing pot that was placed ten feet away, Li Shimin smiled and waved his hand, "It's too close, too close."
Yuchi Jingde instructed him, saying, "Come on, put the pot farther away."
The two waiters stepped forward and pushed the pot forward one foot away.
Li Shimin looked at the two throwing pots and said, "It's still too easy to throw two throwing pots."
So Yuchi Jingde spoke again and said, "Come on, remove a throwing pot."
Therefore, under the "hosting" of King Li Shimin of Qin, a very difficult pot throwing game is about to begin.
"Let's do this, we have so many people, let's just throw a pot together." Li Shimin suggested again.
"I will receive the order."
So, in the next time, the waiter distributed four arrows to each person, while Li Shimin and Changsun, as "hosts", did not participate in this pot throwing game.
"The rules of the game are very simple. The more arrows you put into the pot, the better the prey you get," said Yuchi Jingde, "Low, start throwing the pot."
With the order of Yuchi Jingde, the civil servants and military generals in the tent, and the servants and maids walked forward in groups and threw the arrows in their hands towards the pot two meters away.
In the early stage of the game of throwing the pot, waiters and maids competed to take action, but Yuchi Jingde and others were not in a hurry, just watched the changes.
"Zhang Sanlang, enter the pot for 1 arrow."
"Liu Ermei, enter the pot for 1 arrow."
...
At the beginning, not many people could throw into the pot, not only because the placement of the pot was placed far away, but also because the arrows thrown by three people in groups had an impact on each other. However, there were many experts in the crowd. In the eyes of ordinary people, being able to enter the pot at such a long distance of 1 arrow is considered a good result.
More and more people have thrown pots, and fewer and fewer people have waited for throwing pots.
Finally, only Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang, Sun Simiao, Li Yida, Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin were left on the field, and the two arrows on the field were Qin Shubao's two arrows.
2 of 4 out of 4 is already a good result for Qin Shubao. After all, Qin Shubao is not proficient in the game of throwing pots.
On the field, if you want to talk about the masters of the pot throwing pot, it is Yuchi Jingde. Why do you say that? Because the pot throwing pot is particularly similar to archery, and Yuchi Jingde is definitely at the level of "Sharp Shooter".
