Chapter 1663 - Do You Know the Secret of Shooting Well (2/2)
He had asked the question without much hope of getting an answer. He never expected Ninth Si to actually reply.
Having heard no response, Si Yiyan started to leave.
Jiang Hongjie finally snapped out of his trance. “Yes, I wish to know. Please tell me!”
At this point, Jiang Hongjie was extremely excited. His face was completely flushed and his heart raced wildly.
Si Yiyan threw a piece of black cloth at him. “Put this blindfold on.”
His cool voice was lined with an undoubted authority.
Grinning foolishly, Jiang Hongjie hurriedly blindfolded himself. “Is this alright?”
Without waiting for him to get ready, a series of gunfire sounds erupted. Eyes completely blindfolded, Jiang Hongjie was engulfed in darkness, such that his other senses became amplified. He could feel the bullets whizz by him one by one.
There was even one bullet that scratched the skin on his neck. The pain startled him and he started dodging wildly.
“Keep calm!” The cool voice commanded.
Jiang Hongjie’s body went limp as he cast aside all defenses.
“Do you want to know the secret behind shooting well?” Si Yiyan aimed his gun at Jiang Hongjie. He suddenly pulled the trigger and a bullet flew right by his ear.
Jiang Hongjie went stiff as fear arose in his heart. “It’s… it’s technique!”
At this point, Jiang Hongjie finally realized that there would always be someone better than you. His shooting skills, which he had been so proud of, were actually nothing at all.
From the moment he had blindfolded himself, the person had shot seven bullets in his direction. Four of them had brushed by his clothes while three had scraped past his skin. He was bleeding, but they were only superficial wounds. This precise level of control was awe-inspiring.
His instructor had told him before that a person was only a true sniper after he gained complete mastery of the gun.
However, he now had a new understanding. A person was only a true sniper when he could make the bullet go wherever he pleased.
“Technique only teaches you superficial knowledge. Let me tell you now what is called true shooting.”
Si Yiyan stepped heavily as he raised his sniper rifle and came before Jiang Hongjie.
“You must learn to feel.”
With that, he bashed his gun viciously against Jiang Hongjie’s leg.
“Crack!” The bloodcurdling sound of dislocating bones rang out.
Jiang Hongjie’s leg lost its mobility and he collapsed into a kneeling position. He was drenched in cold sweat from the pain.
Si Yiyan suddenly rammed his gun against Jiang Hongjie’s other leg.
“Ah—” Jiang Hongjie whimpered.
He had once broken his leg during training but had never felt such intense pain. He could vaguely understand Ninth Si’s intentions.
A blindfolded person would find his other senses amplified. Even pain would feel more intense. This was a person’s natural physical response.
Si Yiyan continued to use his gun to hit every single one of Jiang Hongjie’s joints, dislocating them all. Every strike was precise, quick and utterly vicious.
After losing all mobility, Jiang Hongjie sprawled on the ground in complete agony.
