Should he show some real skills to his father-in-law? That way, he wouldn't be underestimating him. Sitting in Mo Henian's jeep, Yang Yi pondered in his heart.
"What kind of guns did you play with in the army? Rifles? Pistols? Or a machine gun? "Mo Henian asked casually.
They were heading to the shooting range of the biggest gun club in Big Grassland Town. There were more types of guns than gun shops and supermarkets, and they could experience shooting different types of guns.
"I've played with all of them," Yang Yi answered simply.
When he was in Battle Wolf, his predecessor had even trained with heavy machine guns on tanks and even artillery shells. Mo Henian's question was too childish!
Of course, Yang Yi thought it through. He didn't show off in front of his father-in-law. If he showed his qualifications, Mo Henian would know that he wasn't an ordinary retired soldier, and he wasn't a pushover. However, there didn't seem to be any benefits in slapping his father-in-law's face!
When they arrived at the shooting range, Yang Yi realized that this shooting range was a little interesting. One part of the shooting range was indoors, and they had to wear headphones to shoot. Another part of the shooting range was built in the wide and open countryside. Not only could they shoot target paper, but they could also shoot various objects — bottles, Apples, and so on.
Mo Henian was obviously a regular at this gun club. When he came in, the manager greeted him warmly. At the door, there were a few fashionable old men in shorts and polo shirts shouting, "Mo! Your cows … "
These fashionable old men looked like they had just come back from playing golf. They chatted with Mo Henian cheerfully. Originally, they had played enough and were ready to go back. Now that they saw Mo Henian, they put their arms around each other's shoulders and excitedly prepared to go back for another 500 rounds.
Originally, Yang Yi thought that these old men were like Barea and Mo Henian, farmers nearby. However, when Mo Henian introduced them to him, Yang Yi found out that they lived in town and did different businesses. Some ran supermarkets, some ran bars, and some sold cattle and sheep. However, they mainly did it in the nearby Arlington City.
"Pick a gun and see what you want to play with." Mo Henian's face was cold but his heart was warm. He didn't neglect his son-in-law just because he saw his friend. He handed over the gun list and showed it to Yang Yi. "Pick one to practice first. You can change later if you want to try something else."
The names of the guns in this world were very different from those in Yang Yi's previous world. Yang Yi took a few glances and picked an automatic rifle that looked like an M16.
As Yang Yi was a newcomer, he couldn't use the gun on his own. An instructor came over to teach him how to use the rifle, as well as some rules to follow in the outdoor and indoor shooting ranges.
The old men didn't play by themselves. They were chatting on the side and watching Yang Yi, the "rookie", being trained with relish.
"Mo, I thought your daughter would marry an American. I didn't expect her to marry a Chinese."
"Hmph, this brat is so lucky!"
"I think he's alright. As far as I know, there aren't many in China who are as tall as him."
"Oh right, Mo, I heard your daughter is a celebrity in China?"
As the old men chatted, Yang Yi patiently listened to the instructor's instructions. He didn't tell the instructor that he actually understood everything. After all, this was a whole new world. It was more meaningful to watch someone else's demonstration to make sure he didn't misunderstand or make any mistakes than to rush to show off.
"You can try it with me." The pot-bellied middle-aged instructor nodded at Yang Yi.
Yang Yi finally picked up the black rifle. The slightly worn texture on the gun gave Yang Yi a wonderful touch. The cold feeling also made Yang Yi a little absent-minded. It was as if his spirit had traveled through two different worlds.
"Pick up a gun. What do you need to do?" The instructor saw that Yang Yi was in a daze and thought that he didn't know how to use the gun, so he reminded him.
Yang Yi came back to his senses. He smiled slightly and his hands began to move.
Yang Yi pulled the handle of the gun with familiarity and checked it. A series of complicated operations were completed smoothly. Then, he inserted the magazine.
"Kacha" a soft sound was heard, as if it was a starting gun.
Suddenly, Yang Yi felt that the sounds of the whole world became clear. He could acutely perceive the movements around him, the positions of the old men who were talking, walking, smoking, and the positions of the gunmen in the distance.
He was completely in combat mode. It was as if he could immediately choose the right target to shoot if a criminal appeared!
The instructor originally thought that Yang Yi would need to train for a while before he could understand how to use the gun. However, now that he saw Yang Yi's skillful operation, he swallowed back the words he wanted to say.
"You know guns!" The instructor said, somewhat speechless. "Fire a few shots for me to see? I don't think you need any more training! "
"Where should I shoot?" Yang Yi asked.
"A hundred-meter target, A8." The instructor pointed to a target in the distance.
Yang Yi followed the instructor's instructions and walked to the A8 position. He gently pushed up the safety device, which was the fast and slow trigger, and selected the single-shot mode. Then, he skillfully leaned the butt of the gun against his shoulder, tilted his head, aimed, and fired.
"Bang!"
The gunshot interrupted the old men's conversation. They all looked over.
"They've started shooting so soon?"
"How's the result?"
Mo Henian was also curious. He followed his friends and walked toward his son-in-law and the instructor.
Now, the target paper in the shooting range was changed electronically. Moreover, there were cameras that could check the bullet traces. The instructor quickly brought up the A8 target paper on the display beside him.
Yang Yi's bullet hit the bottom left of the target paper. It was still some distance away from the bullseye. However, the bullet didn't miss the target. This made the old men laugh and clap.
"Not bad. You're already so good at your first shot! Keep up the good work! "Mo Henian encouraged. In fact, he was very satisfied with his son-in-law's performance. To be able to hit the target paper, he could boast to his friends about Yang Yi's talent!
Yang Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In fact, he wasn't completely familiar with the gun. The first shot was just a test. He wanted to see the gun's recoil, the bullet's shooting speed, and the degree of drop.
Now, he had the basic concept in his heart. He silently counted some corrected data and fired another shot at the target paper in the distance.
The bullet hit the top right of the bullseye. It was still a little off, but this time, the distance to the bullseye was much shorter!
After two tests, Yang Yi had already figured out the gun's performance.
However, no one watched his performance. The instructor saw that he was already very familiar with the gun. He gave a box of bullets to Yang Yi and went to check on the other people in the shooting range.
Meanwhile, Mo Henian and his friends were chatting. They felt that just watching wasn't enough. Under someone's suggestion, they took a double-barreled shotgun and went to shoot a flying saucer!
Yang Yi changed to a two-hundred-meter target. However, he still shot while standing and easily hit a few bullseye. Unfortunately, no one saw his good results.
Yang Yi didn't mind. He also came to have fun. To Yang Yi, guns were just a simple skill. In comparison, he preferred cold weapons for assassination in his previous life.
However, when Yang Yi was practicing, something happened on his father-in-law's side.
"Mo, how about we make a bet?" Three old farm owners walked over. The one in the lead had a cigar in his mouth. He laughed and said, "You have to give me a chance. I've liked your Remington for a long time!"
