Chapter 3 The Funeral Valley Beauty Meets Strange Fate, True Love Is Hard to Collect (20)
He Zihan continued: "In the 'personal hidden weapon', the more typical ones are 'handguard', 'hand thorn', 'barb', 'three-pointed nail', etc., the 'handguard' is a semi-circular or oblate iron ring, held in the hand, the iron ring is generally the thickness of the little finger, and it is very convenient to use when fighting with the enemy; Barb' is a hard iron sheet with holes, tied to the palm of the hand, the flat side is against the palm, the sharp side is facing outward, you can use the spikes on the iron sheet to scrape the enemy's skin when fighting, the 'barb' can also be two-sided, with two iron sheets on the hand, there are thorns on both sides of the palm and the back of the hand; The three-pointed nail is a fist in the hand, and the three-pointed nail can assassinate the enemy, and the threat is very great. ”
"The 'three-pointed nail' is indeed terrifying, very aggressive, and difficult to guard against, and it seems that some of the 'personal hidden weapons' are also very threatening. Aoshan said.
"Each type of hidden weapon has several are very threatening, for example, in the 'shot hidden weapon', the threat of the 'meteor hammer' is also very large, an iron ball, tied to steel, etc., when fighting the enemy, it can be used to split, tease, entangle, hit and other various attack methods, offensive sharp, varied, it is different from the hammer, can carry out a turning hit, it is difficult to prevent, and it is easy to carry, strong concealment, can attack by surprise. In addition, similar to the 'Meteor Hammer', there is the 'Sleeve Hammer'. A rope of more than three feet, one end is tied to an iron ball, the other end is put on the wrist, the end of the rope is grasped in the hand, and the hammer is suddenly struck when fighting with the enemy, which can pose a great threat to the enemy. He Zihan said.
"Master, compared to this kind of 'Secret Weapon', is the 'Hidden Weapon of Hands' more powerful in attack? Aoshan asked.
"Among the various types of 'hands-off hidden weapons', the most common is the 'flying stone', which is actually the simplest and most primitive hidden weapon. According to each person's different requirements for the weight of the stone. It can be made of 'flying stones' of different sizes, of course, other hard objects can also be used as 'flying stones', and the flying stones can fly to more than 30 zhang away. And. Flying stones can also have multiple shots. Such as straight line flying stones, arc flying stones, fluttering flying stones, sound flying stones, child and mother flying stones, etc., originally, stones are very ordinary hard objects. With it as a hidden weapon, it can exert such great power, it can be seen that if the 'hands-off secret weapon' can be used skillfully, the lethality is very strong, of course, the use of 'flying stones' such a hidden weapon, you must have very good kung fu, without a long time of training, it is difficult to use the 'flying stone' well. He Zihan said.
"In this way, even if it is a small stone, once it is used as a hidden weapon, it will have a wonderful effect, it seems that no matter what kind of hidden weapon is used, as long as it can be used smoothly and skillfully, it can exert great lethality, the key is to be able to practice skills, in this sense, what object to use as a hidden weapon is not the most important, the key is to have superb skills in using hidden weapons, Master, is the disciple's view right?"
"That's right, the use of hidden weapons, on the basis of the same internal force, the key is to have skilled technology, not to use which kind of secret weapon, of course, some people use such a secret weapon is more convenient, and some people use another secret weapon more conveniently, as long as you choose what you think is appropriate, you can use it for a long time, so that you can practice superb skills. He Zihan said.
Ao Shan listened to her master's analysis, she felt that there were too many hidden weapons, she didn't know what kind of secret weapons to choose to practice, and she didn't know if the master had already chosen a secret weapon for her, she thought about it and said: "Master, do you mean that all kinds of hidden weapons are actually the same, as long as you practice diligently, you can practice skilled skills, what you choose, in fact, there is not much difference, right?"
"All kinds of hidden weapons have their common characteristics, for example, the vast majority of hidden weapons are small, lightweight, easy to carry and hidden, especially ' Get rid of the hidden weapon', only the small size can be thrown farther, and, the hidden weapon is very targeted, it is aimed at a specific enemy, in the battlefield of thousands of troops and horses, it is difficult for the hidden weapon to play its important role, so, in the past, it is relatively rare to use the hidden weapon on the battlefield, on the contrary, in the martial arts, the two sides often compete with fewer people, sometimes even one-on-one fighting, the distance between the two sides is closer, therefore, the hidden weapon can play a very important role, which is a common feature of all kinds of hidden weapons, however, the difference between different hidden weapons is still very large, for example, generally speaking, the hidden weapons used by men are heavier, as mentioned earlier'Meteor Hammer', and ladies prefer to use lighter hidden weapons, such as the 'Sleeve Hammer' mentioned above. Also, the use of hidden weapons is sometimes correspondingly to the martial arts that the people who use hidden weapons are good at, there are quite a few strange and vicious people with martial arts, and the hidden weapons used are often very vicious and terrifying, for example, the special hidden weapon 'blood droplets', a long iron chain is connected to a round iron cap, the edge of the iron hat has many long knife teeth, the long knife teeth are fed with poison, a drop of venom can be fatal, when the iron cap is put on a person's head, the long knife teeth can pierce the person's neck, and the venom enters the person's neck, can this still be saved? Another example, the legendary secret weapon and medicine in one combination of the 'life and death charm', can make people 'can't survive, can't die', a sharp edge, borneol-like poison tablet, once it is injected into the human body, the pill will disappear instantly, the wound around the itch is incomparable, the body is like a needle-like pain, people can't stand it, this is not only a very terrifying secret weapon, but also a very terrible poison. He Zihan said.
"The wicked man's vicious scheming has also been used on the hidden weapon, they are all using insidious tricks, which cannot be prevented, it seems that we can only effectively fight against the wicked man's poisonous tricks with more proficient skills in using the hidden weapon. Aoshan said.
"You are really sensible, in those years, you followed your uncle to practice kung fu, experienced twists and turns, accumulated experience, it seems that the suffering is not in vain, as long as you study hard and practice hard, you will definitely have a great future. He Zihan was surprised by Ao Shan's maturity many times, and couldn't help but praise her a few more words.
"Thank you, Master, for your approval. Ao Shan just said what he thought of casually, where to talk about what kind of experience, I don't understand a lot of things, you just said that wicked people often use vicious secret weapons, then, chivalrous people use hidden weapons, is it considered unethical?" Ao Shan asked.
"Hidden weapons, like other weapons, have no good or evil nature, the wicked can use hidden weapons, and good people can certainly use hidden weapons. Merely. The chivalrous man in the martial arts, the purpose and the proportion he grasps with the hidden weapon are very different from the wicked, the wicked use the hidden weapon in a very vicious way, and put people to death at the first hand. Indiscriminate killing of innocents. They preach any morality. Although chivalrous people also use hidden weapons, they will not use hidden weapons by vicious means, and pay attention to reasonable proportions in the process of using hidden weapons. For ordinary opponents, the use of hidden weapons is mainly to give warnings; for threatening opponents, the use of hidden weapons against them, the attack will be heavier; only for the most heinous people, will use the hidden weapons to kill them, in short, chivalrous people use hidden weapons, like the use of other weapons, in order to eliminate evil and promote good, and maintain justice in the rivers and lakes. He Zihan explained.
"The disciple understands, just like sometimes the monks often say when they punish the wicked, 'My Buddha promotes the good and also eliminates the evil', that is, a good person does not mean that he does not kill people, but he kills all the wicked people who should be killed, right?" said Ao Shan.
"Yes, chivalrous people sometimes have to kill people, but they kill the people who should be killed, and the evil is to promote goodness, in order to make the justice of the world publicized, in fact, your Uncle Lin develops poison, which is the same as using hidden weapons, poison is not unusable, the key is that poison must be used to deal with evil people, and it is a last resort. He Zihan took the opportunity to talk about hidden weapons, and told Ao Shan that poisoning is also reasonable under certain conditions.
"Master, does it all depend on skill to launch the hidden weapon? the stronger the internal force, the more powerful the hidden weapon is?" asked Ao Shan.
"For the usual hidden weapons, whether they are used well, it does have a lot to do with the user's skill, and the use of hidden weapons to achieve superior kung fu, no internal force can not be done, of course, there are some hidden weapons are not by the user's skills, but by some kind of mechanism to launch, by the mechanism of the launch of the hidden weapon, the most typical is the 'sleeve arrow' and 'back crossbow', the so-called 'sleeve arrow', is named because the arrow is hidden in the sleeve, the sleeve arrow is divided into single barrel and multiple barrels, that is, one-time launch and multiple launches. The barrel of the sleeve arrow is rolled with copper or iron, its middle is hollow, the inner diameter is more than half an inch, the body length is about eight inches, the barrel cover is equipped with a butterfly-shaped steel sheet, which is used to cover a round hole on the barrel cover, this steel piece is the trigger; the sleeve arrow is made of bamboo sticks or iron needles, the arrow is about seven and a half inches long, there is an iron cluster in front, there is a small missing groove under the arrow, the arrow body is loaded into the cylinder from the small hole of the barrel cover, the spring in the cylinder is compressed, the small missing groove is just the steel sheet of the cylinder cover is stuck in, the sleeve arrow thus enters the state of preparation, when the arrow wants to be launched, the steel sheet is started, the sharp arrow immediately flies out due to the effect of elastic force, and the person who is facing the cuff is shot; 'Plum Sleeve Arrow'. He Zihan said.
"The disciple has heard people mention the 'Hidden Arrow' before, but I don't know what it is, but when I heard from the Master today, I realized that it was originally hidden in the barrel and fired by a spring, which is a very small mechanism, in fact, the method of making the Hidden Arrow should be similar to the mechanism in the tomb in the tomb robbery story, right?" Ao Shan asked.
"Have you ever heard of the story of tomb robbery? There is a permanent mechanism in the ancient tomb, if someone invades the ancient tomb, once the mechanism is touched, it will immediately shoot sharp arrows or throw stones, etc., in this sense, the mechanism of the ancient tomb is very similar to the 'hidden arrow', in fact, the 'back crossbow' just mentioned also has a similar principle. The "back crossbow" is also a hidden weapon launched by the mechanism, the "back crossbow" has a long history, but now there are not many people who know it, the length of the "back crossbow" is about seven and a half inches, the length of the arrow body is about seven inches, and it is made of bamboo and iron. The person carrying the crossbow is tied to the back with two sections of rope, these two sections of rope are tied to the shoulders, one end of the other rope is tied to the crossbow machine, and the other end is tied to the belt of the user, at this time, the crossbow is back forward, the arrow is on the bowstring, and the crossbow machine is fastened, and the crossbow machine is fastened with a crossbow machine, and the user does not need to start the crossbow machine when firing, only the user bows his head and waist, and the rope on the belt will open the trigger due to the elongation of the waist and back, and shoot the arrow through the back of the user's neck, shooting the enemy in front, and often the killer pretends to salute the enemy, and uses the opportunity to bow down to the enemy to fire'Back crossbow', when the enemy was happy to receive the salute, was caught off guard, and was already hit by the arrow sent by the bower. He Zihan continued to explain.
"It is very shameful to shoot a hidden weapon to hurt people by pretending to be defeated and kowtowing to others, and chivalrous people will not do this, and the disciples believe that this 'back crossbow' is mostly a kind of bad trick of those insidious villains. Aoshan said.
"You're right, a chivalrous man will not launch a 'back crossbow' with a feint of defeat and kowtow, but a chivalrous man must understand the firing characteristics of this 'back crossbow' in order to avoid being plotted by vicious people. He Zihan said. (To be continued......)
