Chapter 105: A Little Difference
On a snowy day, a stonemason wearing a sheepskin jacket, holding a carving knife, concentrates on carving a stone tablet. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A hundred paces away, a bloodied man raised his hand and made a motion to pull the trigger towards the air.
The invisible wind, with the intent to kill, pierced through the vast expanses of flying snow and headed straight for the craftsman with his head down.
The arrow is invisible, but it has a sound.
When the chilly wind came into his ears, the craftsman suddenly raised his head and subconsciously raised the stone tablet in his hand, on which he had already carved the word "flower".
The stele shattered in the wind, and the craftsman's head tilted slightly to the left, but the cold wind stung the craftsman's cheek, and a trace of scarlet appeared on the craftsman's face, which was left by the wind tail of the arrow.
He dodged the arrow.
"Alas, the Hidden Arrow is no faster than the Longbow."
The stonemason looked at Hua Rong, and then looked at the stone tablet in his hand. It took a long time for the stonemason to throw away the small stone tablet that had been half carved but had been broken by an invisible arrow, and took out another stone tablet in his bag and carved it again.
Hua Rong shook his head and said, "Do you want to kill me so much?" ”
The craftsman bowed his head and carved the stone tablet in his hand one at a time.
"I taught Yan Xiaoyi archery, he taught me crossbow arrows, although I can't exert the power of real crossbow arrows, but it's still no problem to shoot through your stone tablet, so, do you think you can kill me?"
The craftsman stopped what he was doing and looked at Hua Rong.
Hua Rong smiled: "If I guessed correctly, your ability needs to work at a certain distance, otherwise you would have killed all of us in Liangshan if you sat in a corner that we couldn't find." ”
The craftsman nodded, he didn't need to hide this, normal people could guess it.
"Also, I thought about it, it took you a short time to carve my name before, and it took a long time for the last one to be sculpted, why?"
The craftsman looked at Hua Rong silently, and Hua Rong smiled: "At first, I thought it was your voice that followed my footsteps, but now I feel wrong, it is my footsteps that follow the sound of your tapping, so you carved quickly." After that, because we have moved, so you carved slowly, and you deliberately spoke in that uncomfortable language, just hoping that I would take a few steps quickly, so that you could finish the carving, and you also persuaded me to turn back, hoping that I could take a few steps, but I didn't move, so it took you a lot of effort to finish the carving, so now that I'm sitting here, how hard do you think it will be for you to finish carving a person's name! ”
The craftsman was silent for a moment and said, "With your qualifications, it's no wonder you can become a marksman." ”
"So, do you still think you can kill me?"
The craftsman said: "I want to give it a try." ”
Hua Rong smiled: "You have lost the opportunity. ”
The craftsman stopped the carving in his hand and seemed to be in deep thought, and after a while, he said: "I remember when I was an apprentice for the first time, the master's team received a project from a rich man to build a castle, which was a very large castle, and I asked the master, how many stones were chiseled to build this castle?" The master said that tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, are needed. I sat next to it and thought, do you need that much? Can we chisel it out? Can we build it? But in the end, we actually built it. ”
Hua Rong quietly listened to the craftsman finish his past, and said, "You still want to say that as long as you insist on killing me, you can kill me." ”
The craftsman smiled: "I want to say, I am a skilled, I have seen the world, the master craftsman has experienced more difficulties than you think, but I have survived, now how can I give up like this!" ”
Hua Rong's smile slowly faded, because, from now on, he and this craftsman will enter a protracted battle, a competition of mental and physical strength, if anyone can't stand it, who will lose.
However, can your body last until the moment when the craftsman has no energy?
The craftsman finishes his story and goes back to work, just as Hua Rong is an apprentice who wants to give up halfway, and he encourages him with his own personal experience.
In the wind and snow, the carving knife slashed through the stone monument, making a clear sound.
Hua Rong watched silently like this, until he saw the craftsman make a horizontal stroke, raised his hand, and pulled the trigger again towards the air.
The craftsman bowed his head, as before, until the invisible arrow reached the front door.
He lifted the stele, which shattered and tilted his head to the right.
"Why bother, your abilities are indeed terrifying, you can kill people and be invisible, but as long as your stone tablet can't be carved, you can't kill people, right?"
The craftsman looked at the broken stele, threw it in the snow again, took out another stele, and said, "It's still not hard enough." ”
Hua Rong said: "As long as you carve the stele, I can guess from your actions that you engraved my name on that stroke, such as the first small stone stele, after carving the word 'flower', you carved the word 'Rong' you carved the first horizontal, the second time, you carved the word 'wood' under the word 'Rong', so if you want to fight a protracted battle with me, you will always suffer a lot, because I will destroy the stele before you spend the most energy, but you don't succeed, you will never be able to kill me." ”
The craftsman took the stele in his hand, looked at Hua Rong's confident expression, and said: "I envy you smart people, you can understand many things at a glance, and you will learn them, but those of us who are not as smart as you also have our methods, that is, study hard, start from the apprentice, start with the simplest lines, it took me thirty years to learn how to carve, and it took three months for me to learn how to carve birds and beasts, so the only thing I believe is that thirty years of accumulation is better than a glance, It is much thicker and more reliable to learn. ”
The craftsman chattered and talked about his past, but Hua Rong got too much information from that simple time, from lines to carving, it took thirty years, but the most difficult birds and beasts took three months, what is this concept? This is a concept of an epiphany and a master. There is also a saying that it is accumulated steadily.
This kind of thing, this kind of person, is very common in society, and people are accustomed to calling this kind of person a late bloomer, but they all ignore the hard and difficult years before being a late bloomer.
Hua Rong looked at the craftsman carefully, because in this craftsman, he saw a sharp qi, which was indestructible qi.
This kind of qi should have been the archer's, but he didn't have it, but the other party did.
"Still, I want to thank you for the reminder, because your reminder let me know that I can't carve in the normal way."
Hua Rong frowned, and instantly had a feeling that she was smart but was mistaken by her cleverness.
The craftsman bowed his head and began to carve, this time the trend of the carving knife completely changed, there was no obvious change in horizontal and vertical, it was a kind of flowing water.
Hua Rong's eyes carefully watched the wrist of the craftsman as he carved, watching the changes in the carving knife, however, he was not sure how far the other party had carved it, and the only safe way was to ......
Shoot the stone tablet in the stonemason's hand.
Hua Rong did this, and the stele was also smashed by him.
The craftsman took the damaged stone tablet and looked at it carefully for a long time before saying, "Actually, there is nothing on it. ”
Hua Rong looked at the stone plaque held up by the craftsman, and his heart slowly sank.
"Thank you for listening to my story, and thank God for letting me meet an opponent like you."
The cold wind passed, the snow and dust rose, and the sky was covered with snow, hazy the distance between the two people.
The craftsman took out a stone tablet again, and Hua Rong stared at the craftsman's hand without blinking.
Life and death are in the palm of your hand.
……
The atmosphere of the conference room in the Qingtian Building is as wonderful as where Hua Rong and Wang Yin are.
Wu Yong wants to uncover a mystery, but Cai Jing and Liu Min are skillfully avoiding or dodging.
However, the reality is in where the monitor is, see it clearly, and act it clearly.
"Fang Tianwang, do you think your people can win?"
Fang La stared at the monitor tightly and didn't speak, but Liu Min took over the topic of Wu Yong and said, "You think Hua Rong has won." ”
Wu Yong shook his head and said, "You, you are really a gambler's character, you will never admit defeat if you don't lose your pants, right?" Please your people play back the footage three minutes ago. ”
Three minutes ago, Wang Yin finished carving Hua Rong's name on the one-meter-five stone tablet, and three minutes ago, Hua Rong reached the ground and almost died.
Liu Min and Cai Jing didn't speak, and Fang La said in a deep voice: "Go back!" The staff in front of the monitor hesitated.
Fang La muttered again and said, "I can't hear it, I still can't understand it!" ”
"Rewind."
Liu Min spoke, and the picture returned to three minutes ago.
Wu Yong looked at Fang La and said, "Fang Tianwang, to be honest, Hua Rong should have died at this time, but it was almost there. ”
Fang La looked at the screen of the monitor and said, "Let's talk about the point." ”
Wu Yong said with a smile: "It's almost a little, please enlarge that stone tablet a little." ”
The staff enlarged the stele, and Wu Yong said with a smile: "Almost, it's just a little more under Rong, don't you see it?" ”
Fang La saw that when the word "Rong" was put into writing, at the last vertical time, there was an extra point, so the vertical was not vertical, but became a vertical hook.
This point is very small, and because it is under the stone monument, it is blocked by snow, so it is not visible at first, but when the wind blows twice, it becomes apparent.
Fang La firmly believes that this is not Wang Yin's mistake, but Hua Rong's hands and feet, but I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional.
"That's right, with this more, your people almost killed Hua Rong, but it was this poor point that made Hua Rong find the shortcomings of your people's ability, so you saw that Hua Rong could break your people's killing moves again and again."
Cai Jing and Liu Min smiled: "You are wrong, Wu Xuexue, your judgment of the situation is also a little worse." ”
Wu Yong didn't care about Cai Jing and Liu Min's words at all, but looked at Fang La, but Fang La didn't make any moves, just leaned back in his chair and sat quietly.
This shows that his judgment is still poor, at least he still hasn't pointed out Fang La's weakness.
Wu Yong moved his gaze to the monitor again, because he didn't see the battle between Hua Rong and Wang Yin in front of him, so his information was a little worse than Cai Jing and the others, and it was this that made him unable to move Fang La at the most critical time.
Almost, so what's the difference?
Wu pondered hard, but did not find the answer.
But on the long street, the fight continues!
