————————————————————————————————————

After walking all night in the tank and falling hundreds of times, Tu Shi lay on the ground, sore all over, and never wanted to get up again. He learned a truth: as long as you lie on the ground, you will never fall.

Damn, this truth is really nonsense within nonsense...... But why do people wrestle when they stand and not when they lie down?

Tu Shi thought about it very seriously and found that it was a "fulcrum" problem.

Man stands on the ground and presses his whole body on two points (feet), which are the fulcrum; When a person walks, one foot in front and one foot behind, the fulcrum moves alternately, and the center of gravity is kept at the waist and hips. Once one of the feet is tripped, the balance of force is broken, and the foot left on the ground cannot support the full weight of the person, and the body will naturally tilt and fall. When a person is lying on the ground, the fulcrum is the whole body, and he will not fall at all.

Although a person can walk on one foot (a single fulcrum), it is more convenient to walk on two feet because he has to burst out with enough force to offset the weight of his body and maintain balance every time he jumps. Some people with leg disabilities use crutches as a fulcrum instead of the injured leg to support their weight.

In the rickety buses and subways, it is common to hear the radio "Please stand firm", which sounds like a nonsense: if you want to stand firm, you can only rely on your feet, why do you need to hold on? In fact, because the balance of force is easy to be broken when there are too few fulcrums, passengers need a third fulcrum. As long as the passenger feels like he is about to fall, he or she pulls the ring or handrail to stand firm. Using hands as fulcrums seems to be off the ground, but the reason why the rings and handrails can allow passengers to borrow force is only because the source of force is still the ground.

The more fulcrums, the more stable the object will be when it moves. Why do most mammals run faster than humans? Because they are on all fours, they have four fulcrums that allow them to run with all their might. On the other hand, the fewer fulcrums, the more muscular the limbs that act as fulcrums, so there are also martial arts that use this theory to train local limbs, such as Shaolin's two-finger Zen, which requires the martial artist to use only two fingers to support himself for a handstand - think about it, two fingers! It's torture! What should I do if I break with a snap while practicing?!

……

Thinking too far away, back to the point.

Tu Shi always can't stand on the tank and has to wrestle, this is because his skills are not enough, and he can't maintain the balance on those two small fulcrums. However, through this reflection, he determined another very important thing: how to launch the [Arrow Step] with a single fulcrum in any position without wrestling.

When a person is tripped up, he leans forward, but before he has time to react, the tripped foot will subconsciously raise and exaggerate a big step forward to stand firmly. The same goes for the Arrow Step, as long as the step is large enough, you can rebalance your body in the process and finally land steadily.

If you want to not wrestle, the key is not the first step, but the last step.

…………

Being trapped in a swarm and facing a swarm on a wall are not the same thing at all. If the poison ivy is compared to goose feathers, it means that there are goose feathers flying in all directions, Tu Shi not only needs to take care of the behind, but also from time to time rush left and right to avoid being surrounded to death. Rao is like this, and his circle range is getting smaller and smaller. The soil was full of juice, and Tu Shi felt like he stepped on the oil every time he stepped on it, not to mention how disgusting it was.

Without leisure to rest, Tu Shi felt that his arms, legs and feet were a little tired, and even a pair of eyes gradually dried up. True Qi is not omnipotent, and whichever part it runs to, which part begins to overload, in fact, accelerates muscle fatigue. Especially the wrist, the reaction force of each sword is eaten solidly, which is a real "killing soft". He also wanted to take a break, and he knew that the monsters wouldn't allow him to rest.

Thankfully, he is still uninjured.

He slashed the poison ivy within five meters of his side, stood still, and breathed a sigh of relief. After mastering the "Fire on the Tongue", although [Dragon's Breath] can be activated anytime and anywhere, it must stop the intense movement when activating. He had just taken a full breath when more than a dozen tail hooks came to him, annoying him. He finally found that in the boundless sea of worms, his chances of finding the entrance to the tunnel were very small, and it was difficult for him to deal with the Moon Demon.

Could it be a mistake to jump?

Tu Shi flashed the splash of poisonous juice, his mind froze, and he immediately eliminated his negative self-doubt, and then took a [arrow step]. It's just unfortunate that he walked away for a moment just now, but just like that, he didn't grasp the direction and rushed straight towards a big poison ivy. The big poison ivy was also smart, and he took two steps back, and he actually judged the limit distance of Tu Shi's sprint, and waited for Tu Shi to send it to the door! It cocked its long tail, and the tail hook that shimmered with cold light stabbed diagonally from the lower right, threatening to stab his ankle!

The ankle is always the most difficult place to protect the human body, in ancient Greek legend, a hero named Achilles was invulnerable, but the ankle was his weakness, and the most important tendon of the ankle was also named Achilles tendon because of this allusion. The enemy wants to sneak attack the ankle, this angle is really tricky, and Tu Shi's best thorns and splits are difficult to deal with, because the thorns need to shrink the elbows and the splits need to raise the elbows, and it takes preparation time! However, by the time he was ready, his ankles were gone!

The moment he landed, Tu Shi pointed to the ground on his toes - to be precise, the small half of the forefoot and only the thumb of the foot pointed to the ground, and used this as a fulcrum to explode his power! He felt a creaking rattle between his joints, and [Wildness] exploded in his body, filling every muscle of him, as if all fatigue had disappeared!

As soon as this force exploded, Tu Shi's entire knee swung to the right!

The swing of the knee actually made a whirring sound of the wind, and its strength was so strong that anyone could see it clearly, as if this swing was enough to drive the momentum of the whole body! However, the truth is just the opposite, Tu Shi's upper body movements are not too big, only his shoulders shook violently, and his right arm was pushed down......

What kind of flirtatious was that!!

It seems to be ordinary, but the flirtatious swaying through the soles of the feet, knees, shoulders, and arms already contains the strength of Tu Shi's whole body! A half-arc swept by, cutting off the big poison ivy tail hook, not to mention, but also disemboweling it from bottom to top, the bloody green juice was brought out by the sword for a round of crescent, but it didn't spill on Tu Shi's body at all, as if even the liquid was split by him. In the green stars, his eyes were blazing, his posture was straight, and his sword-like momentum was natural; With a swipe on the ground, the upgraded golden light shone on him, and then shattered and scattered and flew away with the wind!

One of the biggest benefits of leveling up is that the stamina bar restores to full value. He casually opened the menu and smashed all the attribute points he had upgraded into agility. Agility directly affects movement speed, attack speed, and indirectly affects hit rate and evasion rate, which is the attribute he needs to improve the most now.

A sword!

This sword is an unmistakable murderous sword! It's not that other swords can't kill, it's that this sword kills more efficiently and handy! The spine of the sword opened a blood groove dedicated to deepening the damage, and when the sword was sent and drawn, there was a deep blood hole in the enemy's body, which could not stop the bleeding at all! And the blood trough is also coated with poison that seals the throat with blood, which is so toxic that it can take effect in a few breaths, and it is even more difficult to resist, even if it is poison ivy, which is a natural poison, it can't bear it! This sword leaves no room alive, for he who is wounded by this sword will die!

Crimson: (Omitted) Dealing damage to the target has a 10% chance to trigger the "Bleed" and "Poison" effects. (omitted)

It's so cool!

This thrill of killing!

Although the scene was chaotic, Tu Shi was like a fish in water. He exerted his body technique to the extreme, and the [shrinking the ground into inches] and [arrow steps] were used alternately, and the connection was seamless; He avoided attacks at the most critical moments, and others looked worried, but he became more and more happy, he knew that nothing here could hurt a corner of his clothes! He dodged and attacked at the same time, without delay on either side, and wherever he went, the monster fell to the ground! He finally understands that his hard work pays off, and that although he doesn't have an attack skill, he is more lethal and outlasts a player with an attack skill! Thinking of this, he silently thanked the two mentors, who made him successful in their eclectic teaching.

It was as if hearing a passionate song, and every hair of his hair stood on end. He even felt that all the cells on his body were beating, ready to sublimate from his body and float into the unknowable air. Although it was a delusion, he enjoyed it so much that he was simply fluttering.

With a flick of his sword, he sliced off the head of a large poison ivy. The enemy's movements under [Bright Eyes] are like movie clips played in slow motion, and every move is a flaw! All he had to do was find the flaw, hand the blade up, and that's it! He is also not in danger of exhaustion, the unique long breathing method of [Dragon Breath] makes his true qi endless, giving him inexhaustible strength!

…………

"How does the 'Nine Mouths' use the various parts of the sword, and how does the 'Eight Methods' use the sword, combined, is it necessary to use the appropriate attack method, and the most suitable part of the sword for this method, to cause the most damage to the enemy?"

"That's right, but it's missing." Yi Wuya stretched out his hand and pointed at his temple: "When you encounter different enemies, you also have to judge which way to use, and which part of the sword to attack." The world's swordsmanship is ever-changing, and it always revolves around the four words of 'Nine Mouths and Eight Laws', if you know the 'Eight Laws', you will naturally understand the 'Nine Mouths', and vice versa. But no matter how high the swordsmanship is, it is only on paper, and when you use the wrong sword move against the enemy, you are looking for death. ”

Looking at the first skill in the skill list, Tu Shi thought thoughtfully: "In the final analysis, it is still the word 'flaw'. ”

…………

Tu Shi has finally found the way he should go! No, it shouldn't be said "found", in fact, he has been walking on the road, but he never knows it because of his shallow knowledge! He accidentally cleared the fog and discovered this broad road under his feet!

Use [Eyes] to find out the enemy's flaws, or see through the enemy's attack;

Move freely with [Arrow Step] and [Shrink into Inch] to attack or dodge;

Accumulate deep internal strength with [Dragon's Breath] for the above three skills to consume......

By organically combining "attacking" and "dodging", and always on the move, you can pose a threat to the enemy to the greatest extent and reduce your own danger. To put it simply, from now on, only Tu Shi will hit people, and no one else will be able to hit him!
