150 Training 3 (1/2)
For the next two days, besides continuing to burn water and chop wood, also make the clean and continue to work as a servive servicemen. I spend almost all the rest of my time studying that wooden figure!
Like a madman, I spend almost all my time on a wooden figure every day. I watch it from feet to the head, from head to the feet, and I recite them one by one.
Be sure to mark them in your heart!
This is an order that I keep in mind.
In fact, it's not difficult to recite a thing, but it's not so easy to recite it into your heart. His requirement is that when you are fighting with others, you don't need to deliberately think about it. These things have to come out of your mind like conditioned reflexes.
Make these things and skills become a part of my mind! It's like opening your mouth to eat. It's like the natural habit of breathing.
To achieve this level, it is not easy!
I've memorized it for two days and thought I had remembered it, but when he examines, I'm immediately miserable.
His examination process is very simple. I stand beside the wooden figure. He holds a dagger and plays with it. He says any part at will. Then I have to find it in a second and tell all the information about it at the same time!
I only insisted on seven or eight parts, and the speed obviously failed to keep up.
Conditional reflex!
But how difficult it is to achieve such level!
Just as he speaks of the eighth part, I think about it for a few more seconds, and immediately I heard a snap!
A white light shines over! Bang! The dagger sticks on the wooden figure. It is the part he has just asked me! Exactly correct!
”I know you've memorized it, but you can't turn it into your conditioned reflex yet! I ask you, can you stop and think when you are fighting? Will your opponent give you this time?! What I'm asking is that you get rid of the process of thinking! When can you do this, you are qualified!”
…
I spend two more days, this time with wooden figure almost day and night. I put it near my bed almost even when I'm sleeping. Even dreaming is like watching a wooden doll with words on his body is moving around me.
Moreover, even when I look at them during the day, my eyes fall on them. The first reaction in my mind is to wonder where the part is, what the weaknesses are, what the key is and what the effects would be after be attacked.
These two days, my eyes are like a bloodthirsty wolf!
Two days later, I finally pass the examination.
”Now I can teach you something new.”
I finally got the names of these two weirdos. This sneering man is nicknamed Old Cat. And that cold fellow is called Konny, which is a nickname too.
”There are many tools for killing people.” After I passed the examination, Old Cat's expression is a little more satisfied. ”The tools of human killing are all kinds of. War is the best stage to show all of this, from cold weapons to hot weapons. In fact, is the improvement of human killing skills. Of course, if conditions permit, give you enough weapon, you can kill a man with a knife. Give you a knife, you can kill an empty hand man. But the problem is that the situation is always changeable. We can't always get the tools to kill people when we need them. And sometimes, some places, some situations, the traditional killing tools, simply can not be carried.”
I understand what he means. He means there are many places where you can't go in with guns and knives.
”For example, the target you want to kill is in a place with strict security. It is impossible for you to bring a gun close to him. At this time, you need to quickly find the best tools, with the most effective way to kill the target!”
His tone of voice is very cold. It is a kind of totally marblehearted cold!
It's like the word ”killing” to him, just like ”eating” or ”sleeping”.
Over the next few days, Old Cat has showed me a myriad of killing techniques! I can hardly catch sight of all kinds of these things! As if anything could quickly become a killing tool in his hands!
Ropes, chopsticks, a book, a chair, a spoon, a toothbrush, and even a toothpick are enough to kill for him!
”I teach you these things, in a short period of time you can not learn them all. I can only teach you a general. The specifics need you have the opportunity in the future to explore yourself. You can learn all the things I show you first, but this kind of thing is not memorized by rote, but of live learning and live using! When you arrive at a strange occasion, you can immediately find at least three or five killing tools from all kinds of things around you, then you are qualified, barely qualified.”
”Old cat... My last question.” I can't help asking, ”You... How many people have been killed?”
”…” He takes a look at me and says coldly, ”I don't remember.”
The next morning, it isn't Old Cat to get me up. It's Konny this time!
This is a very depressing thing for me. They always wake me up every morning! No matter how alert I am, they can just quietly stand by me and let me wake up in a cold sweat.
No matter how do I prepare, they always have a way to quietly come by me, not to let me notice, unless I stay awake all night with my eyes open! But I've been used to it. In the words of Old Cat, if I want to be able to detect their quiet approach, I at least need to learn for a few years. Obviously, they are all latent masters!
Watching Konny wake me up instead of Old Cat, I know in my heart that Old Cat's lesson is over!
Konny is a speechless person. He always has a cold face and often jumps out a short sentence half a day.
Fortunately, I'm not the first time meet a person with such a personality. When I was at home, I was trained to be strong enough by Wood.
Konny takes me to the back of the farm today. I see the wooden figure I had been studying for the past two days standing in the distance. Then he comes over with a traveling bag, which he had brought when he came.
