This skill is difficult for others, but it is trivial for Zhang Yongsheng. He only needs to use traditional hidden weapon techniques on playing cards to achieve this effect. So when everyone was urging Zhang Yongsheng to perform, he showed off his unique skills of playing cards and darts, which immediately shocked everyone.
Zhang Yongsheng claimed that he could shoot a lit birthday candle with a playing card from five meters away, and he could also extinguish it directly or chop the candle into pieces. What he said immediately aroused everyone's interest. They had all watched the God of Gamblers movie and started talking about it.
Some people even started a bet on whether Zhang Yongsheng could extinguish the candles and how many candles he could extinguish at one time. Liu Yaqiang was very interested in this and even went to help. Jin Kai and other rich second generations also joined in. The scene was very lively, and they all looked like they were watching a good show.
After a while, Zhou Lanbing arranged Bai Zhixuan's remaining birthday candles in two rows, nine in each row, for a total of eighteen. Every two candles are five centimeters apart and look particularly eye-catching in the dim light after being lit. Zhang Yongsheng stood five meters away with the playing cards and began to prepare.
After Zhang Yongsheng was ready, he said: "I will perform a trick first. I will fly my cards directly to extinguish the light of a row of candles without knocking over any candles."
After speaking, he took out a playing card and weighed it. Then with a flick of his wrist, a black shadow flashed across the sky, and then all nine candles were extinguished, leaving only a few green smoke. The playing cards passed over the candle flame wick, the fire was immediately extinguished, and the playing cards fell lightly to the ground.
In an instant, there was silence in the private room, and the strange scene in front of them made everyone present stunned. This situation is completely unique in the God of Gamblers movie. "Wow! Bang bang bang bang!" There was thunderous applause in the private room, and everyone's eyes almost fell out of their eyes in amazement. They were so amazed.
They had thought that Zhang Yongsheng could extinguish one or two candles, but no one thought that he could extinguish a row of candles in one go. Amid everyone's admiration, Zhao Yunfei stepped forward proudly and quickly lit the candle, and then Zhang Yongsheng was about to perform the second round.
Zhang Yongsheng looked at everyone and said with a smile: "The two rows of candles are extinguished at the same time, and I only use one playing card. Keep your eyes open and watch."
Liu Yaqiang was puzzled: "How can you destroy two rows with only one card? Did you tear up the card?"
A person next to him said: "If you tear it up, it will only be two cards. How about just using two cards?"
Zhang Yongsheng said mysteriously: "No need to tear up the cards, you just have to watch!"
He shook his right hand, and a playing card flew out, turning into an afterimage and extinguishing the nine candles on the left. But this time the playing cards did not fall to the ground lightly. Instead, they drew an arc in the air, flew back, and passed over the flame wicks of the row of candles on the right, extinguishing this row of candles as well.
Everyone was doubtful at first, but now they were just amazed. Zhang Yongsheng's hand is so powerful. The playing cards in his hand are like boomerangs. They can fly out and come back again. It's a unique skill. The applause in the private room thundered again, and everyone looked at Zhang Yongsheng in surprise.
"The following is a performance of cutting off candles. This performance is quite dangerous. If you miss it, you will hurt someone. Please don't stand behind the candles, try to lean to both sides." Zhang Yongsheng greeted.
After everyone took their positions and Zhao Yunfei and Zhou Lanbing lit the candles again, Zhang Yongsheng continued his performance. This time he held a playing card in each hand, and with a flick of his wrist at the same time, the two playing cards turned into two black shadows and flew out, heading towards the middle of the birthday candle.
Everyone only heard a "pop" sound, and the playing card passed through the middle of the candle. Without stopping at all, it continued to the second, then the third, and the fourth... The situation of the two rows of candles was exactly the same, just like As agreed upon, the whole process was completely neat and tidy.
In the blink of an eye, the playing cards flew past the nine candles and flew another meter away before falling lightly. The candle did not fall, but shook slightly when the playing cards passed by, and the flame did not even go out. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing whether they succeeded or failed.
Zhang Yongsheng walked forward with a smile, and everyone gathered around. He motioned to Zhao Yunfei to pick up a piece of candle, and Zhao Yunfei reached for it cautiously. The next moment, everyone was shocked again. Zhao Yunfei only picked up the first half of the candle, while the second half still stood firmly on the table.
Under everyone's incredulous gaze, Liu Yaqiang also tried to pick up one, but the result was the same as Zhao Yunfei's, the candle was cut off by a playing card. The next moment, several people came forward to try, but the results were the same, and the fracture was very smooth, as if it had been cut off by a sharp blade.
"Wow, bang bang bang bang..." There was another warm applause in the private room. Everyone was so amazed that they were incoherent, and various descriptive words came out of their mouths. If people hadn't seen such a powerful stunt with their own eyes, most people would probably think that the cards had been tampered with.
In fact, this deck of cards was the one they played just now. They were very ordinary cards. They had only seen it in movies using such playing cards to cut off candles, and Zhang Yongsheng replicated this scene before their eyes. Zhang Yongsheng immediately became a star among the crowd, and everyone came up to make friends with him.
After Zhang Yongsheng's performance, several more birthday party attendees performed. Although they all worked hard, they were far less amazing than Zhang Yongsheng's performance. Bai Zhixuan's birthday party ended in such a lively atmosphere, and Zhang Yongsheng also left a deep impression on everyone.
The next day was Monday, and the sun was very bright in the early summer morning. The students of No. 2 Middle School returned to school one after another and began a boring week of high school life. The classmates met at the school gate or in the classroom and talked about their weekend life. The atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Soon the bell rang for the flag-raising ceremony. The students decisively put down what they were doing, put on their school uniforms and gathered in the playground to participate in the weekly flag-raising ceremony. Zhang Yongsheng and Zhao Yunfei are both tall and were placed in the last row of the class, waiting for the flag-raising ceremony to begin.
The flag-raising ceremony is all routine, and the two of them are very familiar with it after participating in it for more than ten years. In addition to the sense of ceremony, this kind of activity is for the school leaders to summarize the school situation for the week, either to praise outstanding good people and good deeds, or to criticize and educate some students who have violated school rules.
This kind of thing basically has nothing to do with Zhang Yongsheng and the two of them, so they chatted quietly in the back and reviewed last night's birthday party. This birthday party left a deep impression on them, especially Zhao Yunfei, who is still excited to this day.
Zhao Yunfei has finally entered Bai Zhixuan's circle, bringing him one step closer to the goddess. Although there are still many competitors, Liu Yaqiang, Jin Kai and others are not fuel-efficient lamps. But at least it is much better than those in school who only ask people to send flowers and notes, and it also has the advantage of being close to the water, first come first served.
