Chapter Twenty-Five: My Goal Is to Kill the Three Kingdoms!
Zhang Xin slept so long that he couldn't tell the difference between day and night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but Zhang Yi has been taking care of Zhang Xin these days, he has long been exhausted, and after lunch, Zhang Yi fell on the bed next to him, his head just hit the pillow, and he got up after a while. Although Zhang Xi followed Zhang Yi to take care of Zhang Xin, he was already young and energetic, and he didn't feel sleepy at noon.
Zhang Xin usually has the habit of taking a nap, but now he really can't sleep, and whoever sleeps for six days and then lets him sleep believes that he can't sleep.
Originally, Zhang Xin was idle and bored, and wanted to pose to regulate his internal strength and consolidate his cultivation at the beginning of the dark energy. But it is inevitable to move the dantian, and now Zhang Xin has a big hole in his lower abdomen, if he opens the wound again....... It's scary to think about.
Since he couldn't practice martial arts, Zhang Xin wanted to do some entertainment activities. But the entertainment life of this era was already poor, not to mention that he was still in the military camp, Zhang Xin couldn't help but sit on the bed, thinking hard about what entertainment items could be used.
In fact, it would be best if there was a leisure magazine, a novel, or something—but unfortunately now I am looking through the city of Liangzhou, and the pieces of paper that I write are not only military newspapers, but also the Analects University...... Or...... To get the Analects to relieve boredom? Zhang Xin immediately shook his head, and quickly threw this thought out of his head, he must be bored and crazy, otherwise how could he have such a terrifying thought.
After thinking about it, Zhang Xin still felt that the entertainment of the "natives" was really not suitable for him. So what else can relieve boredom.......
In an instant, Zhang Xin thought of the enduring entertainment project that swept the world - playing cards! It just so happens that Zhang Yi and Zhang Xi can get together enough people to fight the landlord. It's a game that's easy to understand and fun, but ...... He needs a poker hand.
When he thought of playing cards, Zhang Xin instantly made a difficulty, he didn't know what materials he could use to make him, and the materials that could be used at this time were nothing more than wooden boards, silk chips, linen, and raw straw paper. Silk, linen, and white straw paper were first excluded, and the thing was so soft that even if you painted a pattern on it, you couldn't play it at all! The planks are hard enough, but they ...... Get a dozen planks and play cards in your hand? Zhang Xin looked at his hands...... After a long time of drawing, even if the wood chips are thinned, human hands can't pick up nearly twenty sheets! Gorillas' hands are probably not big enough. Thinking about it, Zhang Xin couldn't help but be full of faces, what materials did the predecessors who traveled through countless novels use to make playing cards? Think about it, isn't it scientific......
Zhang Xin sighed helplessly, it seems that the great playing cards still need to be studied again. So what game can be played without having to pick up too many cards at once...... Suddenly, Zhang Xin thought of a table card game that later swept the country, yes, that is the legendary - three! Country! Kill!
As soon as he thought of this idea, Zhang Xin's eyes lit up instantly. In the past, Zhang Xin's band was composed of five people, and it happened that a five-person identity bureau could be put on during the break to kill, and such a game with history, depth, simplicity and connotation is of course more suitable for a young man in the new century than fighting the landlord! What's more, although there is no "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that is popular all over the country now, countless stories of the Three Kingdoms that have been handed down have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xin felt that if he didn't make a pair of Three Kingdoms to kill, it would be intolerable! Stopped Zhang Xi at the moment, "Happy...... Ah Xi, come, do my brother a favor. ”
Zhang Xi heard Zhang Xin call him, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, what's the matter with Brother Xin?" ”
Zhang Xin gestured at the moment: "Go find me some wood, no firewood, hard, strong, not too brittle after thinning...... After gesturing for a long time, Zhang Xin found that he couldn't say the texture at all, and couldn't help but say: "That's it...... Well...... Do you understand? ”
"Hard-pointed...... Sturdy ...... It can't be too brittle......" Zhang Xi heard this scratching his scalp, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, took out the waist card on his body and handed it to Zhang Xin, "Brother Xin, is this okay?" ”
Zhang Xin took the waist card and touched it with his hand, and found that the density of this wood was quite large, and he was quite pressed in his hand, and pinched it again, the length of fat and thin was just right, just him!
"That's it. Get more back, huh...... I want to think about it....... It is enough to make a dozen or so of these waist cards. ”
"Okay." Zhang Xi responded, took the waist card handed back by Zhang Xin, and walked out of the tent in a few steps.
After a while, Zhang Xi came back with a large stack of wood. In fact, this is an ordinary poplar tree, but it is just a wood made by soaking it in oil and exposed to the sun. Although the process is not simple, it is a necessary material for supporting tents, building ordnance, wooden horns and horses, etc., and this thing is everywhere in the city after the war.
Zhang Xin took a piece of wood and found that although the texture was not as good as the waist card just now, it was enough to think about it for the second card. At that moment, let Zhang Xi take his barrier knife over and start chopping it.
The barrier knife is also the standard saber of the Tang Army, but it is much shorter than the horizontal knife, about a foot long, and the shape is a long dagger. However, although the obstacle knife is short, it is indeed an indispensable weapon of the Tang Army, whether it is hand-to-hand combat or survival in the wild, it can play a huge role, so this thing is used as a tool knife in the Tang Army.
Datang's knife casting technique is worthy of being the world's first at this time, and the steel mouth of a small barrier knife is both hard and tough, and extremely sharp. Zhang Xin was very handy at chopping wood, and with a knife, he cut a piece of cylindrical wood into a rectangular piece of wood the size of a card, more than a foot long.
Zhang Xin looked at this rectangular piece of wood with satisfaction, and slowly scraped off the wooden thorns on all sides, and now as long as he cuts out a thin piece of wood along the section, the material of the brand is available. However, when he was about to do it, Zhang Xin suddenly remembered that he had seen Jin Dada's "Liancheng Decision" before, and there was a knife method called "splitting paper and cutting rot" on the blood knife door, and the practice method was to use a hundred pieces of tissue paper, fold them into a stack, put them on the table, and cut them horizontally with a knife, and split the first sheet on a stack of paper, but they were not allowed to drive the second chapter. Then the second knife splits the second sheet, and the third knife splits the third sheet, until a hundred sheets of paper are split. As for cutting the curd, it is to use a piece of tofu to put on a wooden board, and thin him with a knife, and to cut a two-inch thick piece of tofu into twenty pieces, each piece is intact and unbroken, which can be regarded as a preliminary small achievement.
Zhang Xin thought, speaking of which, isn't my cutting of wood chips the same as this "splitting paper and cutting rot"? What's more, the Tang army used the horizontal knife as the main battle weapon, and although Zhang Xin's marksmanship and spear skills were excellent, the knife skills were only average. Now that he suddenly discovered the practice method of knife technique, it was like inadvertently discovering a huge treasure, and Zhang Xin's palms were instantly excited - as everyone knows, Zhang Xin is in line with the gist of the national art "no desire is rigid", often the real national art is not to deliberately practice, but to integrate into life and transcend life.
Zhang Xin successfully broke through to the dark power after the battle with Dorjee, and other aspects have not yet been reflected, but he can obviously feel that he has made great progress in eyesight and control, in the words of the "Bajiquan Review", now it is the eye to the hand, the heart and the eye are one.
Zhang Xin soothed the right arm holding the knife a little, but fortunately, the wounds on both arms were relatively shallow, and now they have long since scabbed, so they did not collapse under the strenuous activity. At the moment, he stared at the moment, silently calculated the distance, and the knife in his right hand was like electricity, and instantly slashed towards the rectangular piece of wood.
