C345 Xiao wens weapon location (2/2)
”It's footsteps!” It was a matter of pace. Anthony's previous steps were very void, but what was exchanged for was an increase in the speed of his sword. ” Sun Shangxiang quickly explained the theory behind Anthony using the Swift sword.
Hearing that, Xiao Wen nodded his head, and said: ”Indeed, when using Swift sword, don't think about the unstable situation. Speed was everything, and speed was the priority. All martial arts in the world were invincible. Only speed could break it. Don't try to slow down your attack speed for a solid lower half... Of course, this is only when you are using the Swift sword. ”
Hearing that, Guan Yu seemed to have thought of something, but Sun Shangxiang frowned. She asked, ”Since stabilizing the lower body is meaningless compared to speed, why is everyone so focused on the lower body instead of caring about speed? When I was practicing martial arts, my master made me ride the horse first. ”
Hearing that, Xiao Wen patted Sun Shangxiang's head helplessly, and said: ”I said, it's just that when using the Swift sword, you don't have to care about the footsteps.”
With that, he took Guan Yu's Swift sword and put it back into the sword sheath. Just now, another team of city guards was provoked because of Guan Yu's act of playing with his sword in the street. Xiao Wen was not used to looking for trouble, so he kept his sword.
Then, he looked at Sun Shangxiang and explained: ”The Swift sword s are actually the weapons the city nobles use in their battles. It was designed to revolve around this use. The more effective a principle was, the smaller the strength of the Swift sword would be. In the city, most of the floors are made of flat stone bricks like the one we're standing on. Even if it wasn't a stone brick, it was compressed yellow soil. Because, even if one's steps are a bit more light, it is still unlikely for one to fall down. ”
”However, our Central Plains is different.” Xiao Wen pointed at the city guards that were leaving, and explained: ”In our Huaxia, duels are not popular, even in the cities, we still try our best to keep a low profile and not cause a fatal battle. However, most of the battles were concentrated in the rural areas outside the city. ”Therefore, our traditional martial arts focus on stabilizing the lower body and lowering the center of gravity, so that we won't fall under harsh surface conditions.”
In reality, Xiao Wen had once gone to the dojo under the coaxing of his dorm mate who liked cold weapons. At that time, Xiao Wen had been practicing the horse stance for an entire day, but when he returned, that dorm friend complained in dissatisfaction, saying that the people from the dojo were just bullshitting.
He told Xiao Wen that even in the rural areas, there were very little muddy land in the China of the twenty-first world. Other than the green belt, there was not a single place that was not made of concrete or tile.
In this kind of environment, the traditional wushu practitioners were still struggling with their foundation, which was something they needed back in the rural areas. In fact, it was just bullsh * t.
Listening to Xiao Wen's explanation, Sun Shangxiang suddenly realized. Even though she had been requested by her master since she was young, the first thing she had to do when practicing martial arts was to get her lower plate. However, she didn't understand what was the point of practicing the next move. She continued to draw the gourds. Now that Xiao Wen had explained it to her, she immediately felt enlightened and enlightened.
However, there was one thing that Sun Shangxiang did not understand, and he asked: ”Why would Mister choose to use a Swift sword as a weapon? After all, this kind of sword has a single usage, but the battles in this world are all different. ”
Hearing this stupid question, Xiao Wen was too lazy to answer. He looked at Anthony, and indicated to her with his eyes.
Therefore, Anthony understood tacitly, and explained, ”Your teacher does not need to consider any other battle situation. In the wild, during assassins' assassinations, he even fought in the city or on the battlefield with enough guards to protect his safety. Therefore, there was no need to participate in these battles. In fact, if Mr. Xiao Wen had not made his move today, I would have been able to protect him, it's just a little inconvenience. ”
He paused, then said, ”However, there is an exception. Under these circumstances, no matter how many guards Mr. Xiao Wen had, or how strong he was, it was impossible to deal with them. That kind of situation was a one-on-one duel in front of absolute power and rules. And under that situation, Mr. Xiao Wen's Swift sword, will also display its powerful might! ”
