Volume 1 The Sequencer Chapter 42 Chopping Wood and Chopping Wood
In other words, Bai Zhimo took the two pieces of firewood and studied them carefully up and down, and then he exhaled deeply and finally decided to try it himself.
Bai Zhimo carefully put down the two pieces of firewood in his hand, he wanted to practice, of course he couldn't use these two pieces of firewood, which retained the exquisite knife technique, how could he destroy it at will.
These two pieces of wood alone can be called holy relics, and they can even be passed down as family heirlooms!
Bai Zhimo had already made up his mind, if he could, he would take these two pieces of wood with him and take them out to observe at any time, he felt that this thing could greatly improve his sword skills.
Well, Bai Zhimo's sword technique can't be used at all, but he feels that this thing also has a very important reference role in swordsmanship, and at this time, he remembered the sea-covering knife left by Zhou Donghai.
With these two pieces of wood, even if you don't become a blood chef in the end, it's worth the trip.
Bai Zhimo put a round piece of firewood on the wooden pier, he grabbed the handle of the axe with both hands and lifted it up, recalled the actions of Old Man Huo just now, and simulated the trend of his axe after it fell,
Get it on~
Bai Zhimo secretly shouted, and the axe raised above his head slashed towards the firewood.
Tuk –
With a very dull voice, the axe in Bai Zhimo's hand was directly stuck in the log, and the blade of the axe was only two inches into the log.
Bai Zhimo was dumbfounded, he never expected such a result.
Although it is definitely not up to the point of Old Man Huo, but this axe should also split the firewood!
Bai Zhimo raised the axe again with some helplessness, and of course, the firewood that was stuck in the axe was also lifted, and it was slashed down heavily, and with a 'click', the firewood was broken in half.
Bai Zhimo didn't even need to look at the two halves of the firewood, he also knew that it was definitely unqualified, he had a good idea in his head, but the axe really fell on the wood, but it wasn't like that at all!
The idea is plump, the reality is skinny!
At this moment, Bai Zhimo wanted to cover his face, the axe just now was really embarrassing.
Although, in the situation just now, a very important part of the reason was because the axe was too blunt, but even if the axe was blunt, could it still be blunt enough to be over Old Man Huo's palm?
Bai Zhimo knew that his level was very poor, but he didn't expect that the gap between himself and Old Man Huo was so big, like a moat, a difference between cloud and mud.
Of course, self-pity is useless, Bai Zhimo quickly adjusted his mentality.
He took Old Man Huo's firewood in his hand again, and at the same time picked up his own piece of firewood with his other hand, comparing the two.
Sure enough, there is no harm without contrast.
Bai Zhimo looked at the two pieces of wood in front of him, and his heart was suddenly hurt by 100 million points, he was really a good dish!
Bai Zhimo carefully compared, took the piece of wood of the old man Mu in his arms, stood his piece of wood on the wooden pier, and raised the axe in his hand again.
Click-
This time, the firewood was broken in half, but he secretly added three points of strength, otherwise it is really hard to say whether this axe can split the firewood.
Bai Zhimo's mentality suddenly collapsed a little, and he angrily stood the other half of the firewood on the wooden pier, and then slashed it heavily with an axe, and the axe was stuck in the wood again.
Bai Zhimo glanced back a little weakly, the old man shouldn't have noticed, right? What a shame!
Bai Zhimo knew very well in his heart that this old man asked him to chop wood, which was very likely to be a test for him, and the old man made a demonstration and made him look up, and his performance would definitely become an important criterion for this test.
Bai Zhimo hatefully slashed the axe down, and the firewood cracked in half with a 'click'!
He took two deep breaths, tried his best to calm himself, and then bent down to pick up the four pieces of wood and set them in the next place.
Although the first piece of firewood has been split into four petals, the performance of these three axes is so tragic and heroic, it is simply a heroic sacrifice!
It's definitely not the way to do it!
After Bai Zhimo pondered for half a stick of incense, he re-erected a log on the wooden pier, recalling Old Man Huo's actions just now, and chopping it down heavily!
Click-
Bai Zhimo shook his head, sure enough, it still didn't work, he picked up half of the firewood and put it on the wooden pier, he stared at the firewood, and the axe in his hand split it again.
Click-
Half a piece of firewood turned into half a half!
Bai Zhimo didn't stop, picked up the other half of the firewood and stood on the wooden pier, and the axe slashed hard.
Click-
Click-
Click-click-
The sound of the wood cracking rang out, and there was even a certain rhythm and rhyme.
Bai Zhimo's lips were pursed tightly, he no longer looked at his 'results' now, the more he looked at that thing, the more worried he became, it was better to be practical.
Not to mention reaching the level of Old Man Huo, he found that he couldn't even use the axe in his hand well, in fact, the chopping of the axe was somewhat similar to the knife technique, and there were not many chopping moves in the swordsmanship.
Compared with mastering the superb skills demonstrated by Old Man Huo, he felt that he should still be down-to-earth, and it was the safest choice to chop and eat this trick thoroughly.
And he's going to have to chop all the firewood before it gets dark, and he's going to be able to get the job done, and he's not going to get anything out of it in the end.
Although he didn't know what the consequences of failing to fulfill Old Man Huo's request were, he didn't want to try.
After all, you only get one chance!
How is this old man's cooking skills, Bai Zhimo has no way to judge, but he must learn how to split wood with this trick!
Since this is the case, Bai Zhimo must complete the task assigned by Old Man Huo, at least he must not leave any excuse to drive him away.
As a result, the sound of 'clicking' and 'clicking' in the small courtyard is endless!
And Bai Zhimo is also working hard, and his movements are getting smoother and smoother-
Set up a log, chop, set up half a piece of firewood, chop, set up another half piece of firewood, chop, pick up four and a half pieces ......of firewood, and put it away! Then set up a log and chop, chop, pick-up, chop, pick-up, chop, pick
Cycle after cycle, Bai Zhimo feels like he is getting better......
I don't know how long it took, when he tried to touch the log behind him again, he touched a void-
Before he knew it, he had already chopped all the two hundred pieces of firewood, and now it was just past noon, and before it got dark, he had saved nearly half of the time!
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Just when Bai Zhimo was stunned, a cough sounded behind his head.
Hearing this voice, Bai Zhimo immediately became excited, he hurriedly stood up, turned around and said respectfully,
"Senior, hello, my name is Bai Zhimo, I am sixteen years old this year, and I have just been promoted to the first-order sequence not long ago, I ......"
"I'm not interested in who you are!"
Old man Huo coldly interrupted Bai Zhimo's self-introduction, and let Bai Zhimo's words go back directly.
Old man Huo's face sank like water, and he slowly paced to the side of the firewood that Bai Zhimo had chopped, his eyes swept over, and he even picked up one of the pieces of firewood and looked at it, but then threw it back,
Old man Huo turned around, put his hands behind his back, his face was full of disdain, and shook his head and said,
"What the hell!"
Bai Zhimo's face suddenly turned red, no wonder the old man looked down on himself, because the firewood he chopped out was indeed not a thing!
"Please give me more advice!"
Bai Zhimo could see that Old Man Huo didn't seem to be very satisfied with himself, so he didn't wait for him to say something more ugly, in case this old man directly asked him to get out, then there would be no room for maneuver.
So it's always right for him to preemptively ask questions, right?
"Hmph, it's a lot of thought!"
Old man Huo snorted coldly, he had seen too many people and experienced too many things, how could Bai Zhimo's little caution be hidden from him.
However, he doesn't hate Bai Zhimo, and it's not a bad thing to be flexible, of course, the main reason is because in the observation just now, Bai Zhimo gave him a pretty good impression.
At least it's much stronger than those crooked melons and cracked dates I've seen before!
Old man Huo has been silently paying attention to Bai Zhimo, Bai Zhimo did not rush to chop firewood at first, but observed the two pieces of firewood he left, planned and then moved, he was very satisfied.
At least it's much better than the previous group of kids who either honestly chop firewood or vent and chop firewood.
However, when Bai Zhimo chopped the first axe, he knew that this kid had no foundation, and he was not proficient in axe and knife techniques, so he did not have an advantage in this test.
However, he didn't expect Bai Zhimo to quickly adjust his mentality, and chop wood without arrogance or rashness, and later even fell into a state of almost enlightenment.
This kid has a good understanding!
Of course, Old Man Huo didn't expect someone to be able to chop firewood like himself immediately, because that was simply impossible, what he wanted to see was their heart and understanding!
Bai Zhimo's heart and understanding can barely enter the eyes of the old man.
"Now that today's mission has been completed, then you can leave, tomorrow morning is still this time, don't forget!"
After Old Man Huo said this lightly, he turned around and walked towards his house!
Bai Zhimo was seen through by the old man, and he was embarrassed because of this, at this time, when he suddenly heard the old man's words, he was stunned at first, and then there was a burst of ecstasy, and the smile on his face immediately bloomed!
Bai Zhimo knew that he had initially obtained the old man's recognition, although he didn't know the reason, but this result was still gratifying.
He bowed respectfully to Old Man Huo, and was about to turn around and leave, but just turned around and heard Old Man Huo's voice again,
"Well, by the way, you can find a set of sword techniques to practice after you go back, it should be a little helpful!"
Is this a guide to himself? Does this mean that he is going to start cultivating himself?
Bai Zhimo turned around suddenly, but helplessly found that Old Man Huo had already entered the house, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and he bowed helplessly to the door of the house,
"Thank you for your advice!"
It's just a small suggestion, but it's a great start, isn't it?
Bai Zhimo has already decided to practice the sword technique, because he has a ready-made sword technique cheatbook in his hand, and it is also a very powerful sword technique!
However, he has no plans to cultivate the Sea-Covering Knife for the time being, after all, that thing is from Zhou Donghai, and he has to figure out first, whether his own cultivation of the Sea-Covering Knife will cause any trouble!
If the sea-covering knife is unique to the Zhou family, then his cultivation of the sea-covering knife is definitely looking for death!
The Zhou family wanted to crush him, just like crushing a bedbug.
The matter of the sea-covering knife is urgent.
However, it is necessary to practice the basic sword technique, on the one hand, it is to respond to the guidance of Old Man Huo, and on the other hand, it is also to lay the foundation for cultivating the Hanhai Sword in the future!
[Note] Half of the half, half of the half!
