Chapter 155: Offensive and Defensive

"Boy, don't turn around and scold me, I'm complimenting you. Dou Sheng said.

"That's not to scold you, this Taoist priest is a master of the world, a hermit who practices and sees through all mysteries. I said.

"It's not as mysterious as you said, since you can already control the spiritual power of your hands, then I'll accompany you through a few tricks first. Dou Sheng said as he picked up a stick.

I hurriedly threw away the stick in my left hand as well.

"What are you doing?" asked Dou Sheng.

"I've done two tricks with you. I said.

"Increasing the difficulty of controlling spiritual power can accelerate your spiritual power even more. Dou Sheng said.

As soon as he said this, I looked at the sticks that I threw on the ground, and attached spiritual power to the two sticks at the same time, which did add a lot of difficulty to me, but Dou Sheng's words made a lot of sense.

"But I'm just a knife. I said anyway.

"Who says you can't double swords, can't you have three swords and four swords?" said Dou Sheng.

"That's right, anyway, my feather iron must be enough to fight a few knives. I said as I bent down and picked up the stick.

"Come on, you attack first. Dou Sheng said.

"Okay. I said and swung my stick at him.

I suddenly discovered the benefit of holding the stick in both hands, and the spiritual power was already sensing each other, but it made my originally clumsy left hand more dexterous.

But in front of Dou Sheng, I still can't break his defenses.

"Stop. Dou Sheng suddenly took a step back and said.

"What's wrong?

"You've got a knife in your hand. Dou Sheng said.

This is obviously a stick, how can it be knifed?

Seeing that I was confused, Dou Sheng continued: "You are practicing the sword technique, but you have been dancing the stick technique. ”

"It's... This is indeed a stick. I said strongly.

"The stick is a hit, it stops when it touches something, the knife is different, the knife must have penetrating power, think about it, will the knife in your hand stop when it touches the enemy's body?

Penetration, yes, penetration, I said how I haven't been able to exert their power, and I still haven't been able to change my mind, holding a stick, just like a stick, but what I'm learning is obviously a knife technique.

In this way, why are their punches so powerful, they are also penetrating, I only look at the target, but they are penetrating the target.

"I see, penetrating, I have a knife in my hand, not a stick. I said excitedly.

"Come again. Dou Sheng said.

But this time, Dou Sheng didn't just defend, he also attacked me.

I suddenly remembered why I could see the shadow of the knife on the stick of the Dou Huang, and why I couldn't break their defenses, because I was fighting with other people's knives with a stick.

I don't have a knife in my hand, but I firmly believe that it is a knife, and my spiritual power seems to have transformed into the shape of a blade.

Obviously, both sides were holding wooden sticks, but when they collided together, there was a clanging sound of metal colliding.

Dou Sheng's offensive looks unpretentious, but there is a secret hidden in it, which can be said to be the kind of fatal move.

I opened my bow left and right, constantly blocking his blades, and even I started to master some variations, I attacked left and right, and right and left.

I kept changing the direction of my attacks and blocks, which disrupted the rhythm of the fighting saint a bit.

But this is only temporary, I saw Dou Sheng's charming smile, and the quick left and right pick instantly shook my double knives, and when I was still fighting back, the stick in Dou Sheng's hand was already against my throat.

"I lost. I said with a wry smile.

"If you win, that's scary. Dou Huang said and walked towards us.

"That's right. I said with a smile.

"Good progress, I'm here to play with you. Dou Huang said and picked up a stick.

"We're just going to keep fighting?" I asked, puzzled.

"What you will face in the future is actual combat, and the best way to improve your actual combat ability is actual combat. Dou Sheng said.

"What the master said is very true. I folded my hands and said to the Dou Sheng.

Dou Sheng was about to speak, and Dou Huang rushed towards me first.

"Okay, I'll teach him a lesson, and one day he says something we don't understand, and I don't know if he's scolding or boasting. "The Dou Huang said with a stick, no, a knife stabbed at me.

Before, his moves were mostly slashes, but this sudden stab, I lost an inch, and I instinctively held the knife with my backhand to block the stab.

But the Dou Huang suddenly changed his wrist, and then my blocking momentum slanted towards my wrist from the bottom up.

The speed was too fast, I didn't have time to react, my wrist was hit hard, and the wooden stick in my left hand fell off my hand.

"Your left hand is gone. The Dou Huang said and attacked me again.

I didn't care about the pain in my wrist, and I raised the knife in my right hand and tried desperately to block.

"If you block it for a lifetime, you can't kill your opponent. Dou Huang continued.

This is for me to attack, but in front of him, where do I have a chance to attack.

But what he said was the truth, I gritted my teeth and smacked him, and I stabbed him like him, and I felt that I was fast enough, but he avoided it with an easy sideways turn.

At the same time, his knife was once again on my neck.

"Your head is gone. Dou Huang said.

"I'm sorry, I'm dead. I said with a smile.

"Hahaha. Dou Sheng leaned back and closed while laughing.

I don't even know what's funny.

"That's right, you have to realize that after leaving here, you are facing life and death. The Dou Huang said and put down the "knife".

"I'm tired, I want to take a break. As he spoke, the Emperor threw his stick and sat down on the steps.

I was just about to ask for help from Dou Sheng, but Dou Sheng also threw his stick and sat down on the steps.

"Two, I've just had some results, why are you suddenly like this, did I do something wrong?" I asked anxiously.

"You can all know the basic moves, and today is the twelfth day, so let's consolidate the foundation. Dou Sheng said.

"If you don't practice with me, how can I consolidate. I said anxiously.

"Well, that half of the stone pillar is your opponent. The Dou Huang raised his eyes and pointed to a half-collapsed stone pillar in the courtyard.

"You also said that the best way to improve your actual combat ability is to fight in actual combat, and now you are asking me to hit the stone pillar. I said depressedly.

"It's a cut, it's a knife in your hand, remember. Dou Sheng said.

I still wanted to speak, but Dou Huang preemptively said: "Although we have always said that there are no tricks to win, but the more clinker masters the action of chopping and stabbing, the greater the improvement will be for you." ”

"I get it, muscle memory, it's like boxing. I said.

That's pretty much what it means. Dou Sheng said.

"What about parrying? how do you block stones?" I asked.

"From the time you came to the trial, the most you used was dodging and blocking, and it was time to practice your offense. Dou Sheng said.

"Today you will practice with the stone pillar, and tomorrow we will try your skills. Dou Huang said.

"And what are you going to do?" I asked, a little displeased.

"Let's go barbecue. Dou Sheng said with a smile.

If it weren't for the fear that he would have informed me, I would have really wanted to curse at this time.

The two of them left one after the other, and I had to practice against the stones, leaving me with little time.

In my mind, I kept combining the angles and strength of the Dou Huang and Dou Sheng's shots, and kept recalling the arcs left by their knives in the air.

I'm afraid that my brain is almost like a computer at the moment, and if I hadn't learned math well, I would have been able to calculate some angular force data.

But after practicing against the stone, I understood their intentions, this stone does not seem to be an ordinary stone, hitting, no, I have some arm numbness when I cut it directly on it.

But instead of reducing the strength of my attack, I slashed at the stone harder and harder, because this is also the best tempering of my spiritual power.

I can't let the stick in my hand break.

I practiced against the stone until late at night, and the enhancement of my spiritual power allowed me to overcome the shock of the stone pillar, and my hands were no longer numb, but the strength was greater, and the speed was faster.

The stone pillars, which had been unscathed, gradually began to leave traces of my chopping.

I lowered my arms and just stood in front of the stone pillar and closed my eyes, yes, I want to sleep for a while, and by the way, sublimate my spiritual power.

Today, I'm afraid it's the only day I didn't eat leaves to heal my wounds.

In the morning, Emperor Dou called me directly to the palace.

The two eldest brothers were looking at me and smiling maliciously, and I suddenly remembered what they said yesterday to try my skills, and I just felt my scalp tingle.

Sure enough, as soon as they misturned, I saw more than a dozen white-haired orangutans armed with wooden sticks.
