The Wule warriors formed a circle with a human wall in front of the camp, shouting and cheering one after another, and those who were eager to try clenched their fists and rolled their sleeves.
In the circle, two strong men with most of their upper bodies naked were hugging each other and wrestling with each other. Their veins were exposed, their blood vessels were protruding, and their muscles were tangled together.
"Brother Xing...if you can't hold on any longer, just give up!" Delehei panted heavily, his breath so heavy that it could almost hit the opponent's face, and his two arms were tightly strangling Brother Xing's back.
"You brat, you're still far away!" Brother Xing suddenly got up, using his legs as the foundation and his waist as the axis, he stretched out his arms and tore through Delehei's restraint, and then committed himself to grab and hold him, trying to Pulling up Delhei's strong body from the air.
Delhei's way of dealing with it was very clever. He took advantage of the fact that his right half was still in the air, stretched out his left foot and tripped Brother Xing.
Although this trip method is not fancy, it is extremely practical. The rule of Hu's wrestling is that if the part above the ankle touches the ground, it will be a loss. In order to maintain his own balance, Brother Xing could only give up the idea of pulling up Delhei. The two sides once again returned to the original stalemate with four arms crossed. situation.
The arm strength of Delhei and Xingge is about the same, and they are evenly matched on the scene, but warriors who are good at wrestling can already predict the outcome in their hearts.
Brother Xing...will lose because his physical strength cannot keep up.
That one move with all his strength was already Xing Ge's ultimate move. It was precisely because he realized that a long battle would be disadvantageous that he chose this gamble to achieve success in one battle.
It's a pity that as time goes by, people's energy will also decrease. If Brother Xing was ten years ago, he would never have used this strategy, and he would never have had enough reaction speed to avoid this stumbling block.
The final result was not unexpected. Brother Xing was still hampered by lack of physical strength and was knocked to the ground by Delehey's left hand.
"Teaching disciples, the master will starve to death!" Brother Xing suddenly sighed after being helped up by Delehei.
In fact, the relationship between the two is very good. The wrestling skills of Delehei and Talai, who are the same age as the Wule aristocratic children, were both trained under the guidance of Brother Xing.
"Brother, do you want to give it a try?" After the greetings, the atmosphere could not be cooled down. As the winner, Delhei, standing in the center of the circle, stretched out his hand towards Asier. "Let me see if you neglected to practice in Shengguo!"
Asier nodded happily and approached his eldest brother. The two hugged each other to show friendship, and then started a fierce competition.
To say "intense" may not be quite appropriate, and everyone who thought the brothers would have a fierce battle did not expect that - a moment later, Asier was knocked to the ground by Delhei's beautiful back throw.
"I lost." Asier stood up and patted the dust on his body, but his expression was very unnatural, as if he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and withdrew from the circle with a crooked mouth.
"Ah this..." There was a sparse discussion in the crowd. Although Asier's defeat was not surprising, after all, Delhei himself was a strong general in the Ule tribe who could be ranked in the top three, but this defeated Is the speed a little too fast?
But as the person involved, Delhei's thoughts were completely different from those of the audience. He watched in silence as Asier squeezed out of the crowd, but he rarely began to think deeply in his heart.
He truly felt that Asier's power should not be underestimated. Even if he couldn't defeat him, he would never be knocked down by his crushing back kick in such a short period of time...
What Delhei thinks in his heart can be described with such a prosperous word - hidden clumsiness.
In fact, Azir not only hid his clumsiness in the wrestling match with his eldest brother, but also in front of his second brother Ta Lai.
A few days ago, Ta Lai invited Asir to go hunting with him. The two of them went out with two horses, each carrying a long bow and a pot of arrows.
Ta Lai's purpose is also very simple. On the one hand, he wants to bring the relationship between the two brothers closer, and on the other hand, he also wants to see how Asile's riding and archery skills are.
But the result was obviously beyond Da Lai's expectation - Asier's shooting skills are amazing. One arrow can hit the body of a hare more than ten feet away, but it can also hit the body of a deer that is close at hand. If you don't show off your missed hits, it's not an exaggeration to describe it as "a blind cat encounters a dead mouse"; as for riding skills, at least you won't fall off the horse, but if you want to shoot the bow on horseback, it will be a big mistake. The arrow is accurate and the arrow misses the mark.
Ta Lai half-jokingly asked Asier if he was not in good condition today, but Asier fooled him with an explanation like "You can practice archery by setting up a target, but riding horses is not allowed in the capital of the Sheng Kingdom."
And this kind of gaudy and eccentric expression is definitely not Asier's character. Needless to say, it goes without saying that He Nan taught him.
"Didn't you ask me to retreat and protect myself? Why did you make me behave so... strangely?" Asier was almost stunned by He Nan.
He Nan answered Asier directly, but like a magic trick, he conjured up a thin wire from nowhere. He kept moving his hands and mouth: "Let's use the analogy of folding a wire...you have to go back and forth over and over again." The wire will break only if you bend it, and just bending it once is not enough."
After finishing his words, He Nan had repeatedly folded the wire more than ten times with extremely fast hand speed. As soon as he finished speaking, the wire broke.
Azier saw He Nan folding the wire, but he didn't understand what He Nan meant. "Here, give me one."
He could not believe that Asier had understood his subtext, so he "changed" it out of nowhere.
"Just break it once." The wire broke into two pieces as soon as it fell into Asier's hand, and it seemed that it was not "broken", but "snapped" from both ends. of.
"Are you fucking trying to find trouble?" He Nan couldn't help but say at that time.
"Huh?" Asier scratched his head, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Azir is not stupid, but his character falls into the "comparative axis" category. In addition, Shengguo's language is more complicated than Hu's language, so it is naturally difficult to understand He Nan's weird metaphor.
"What I want to say is...the minds of your two brothers are like this iron wire. When they underestimate you too much, you have to show some strength so that they don't dare to take you lightly; when they value you too much, When the time comes, you have to restrain yourself or even act stupid to make them careless. Over time, even they themselves will not know whether you are a 'competent' or a 'mediocre', so they will be unable to adopt strategies to deal with you. ." He Nan held half of the wire in front of his chest with each hand, looking a little silly: "Although a lion needs all his strength to fight a rabbit, they themselves need to invest their energy into the opponent who is stronger than you. All you need to do is repeatedly involve their emotions and energy, making them feel uneasy and unable to exert any power on you, and you will reap the benefits."
"Hmm..." Asier seemed to have somewhat understood He Nan's guidance, and asked with interest: "What is this strategy called? And why did this result occur?"
He Nan pretended to be profound and said: "When the opportunity is not revealed, it seems to be crazy when it is quiet; if it is fake, it will not only reveal the secret, but also move around and make people suspicious; therefore, the person who pretends to be crazy will win, and the person who pretends to be crazy will lose... This One plan, 'Fake madness but not madness'."
"If I had to explain a reason, I think it's more like... a hint." He Jiandao said: "I once tried a method on a tough-mouthed prisoner - I blindfolded his eyes and covered his head. She pinched his nose, then lightly cut his wrist, and then dripped warm water on his wrist bit by bit - in fact, the wound caused by the knife healed not long after. , not even a few drops of blood came out, but his psychology collapsed..."
"Imagine that you have lost your vision and there is darkness in front of you; you have lost your sense of smell and can't smell anything; you can only breathe through your mouth, and what you hear in your ears is the sound of blood dripping on the ground. What you feel is the warm touch of the blood in the body slowly flowing through the skin..." He Nan's expression became very strange, and his smile was full of malice, which made Asier, who was sitting opposite him, shudder: "Even if It's water, and you'll feel like your own blood is slowly flowing out."
"Confidence, arrogance, calmness, anxiety, determination, doubt, uneasiness, fear... and never-ending random thoughts." He Nan is like changing his face in an opera, his expression changes rapidly, and countless exaggerated expressions follow him The description flashed across his face like a revolving lantern, until he returned to calm at this moment: "Emotions will eventually destroy everything, just like this wire, when it has been repeatedly bent dozens or hundreds of times. , there will always be a day when it collapses.”
"Asir... If you want to defeat your brothers, you must defeat yourself first. If your heart is fragile, then no matter how strong the outside is, it will rot like a dead tree." He Nan said.
To be fair, Azir's acting skills are very poor, but the effect achieved is surprisingly good.
Both Delhei and Ta Lai had already developed a completely opposite view of Asier than they had on the day of the banquet.
Then, it was agreed that the three of them would go on their own expeditions ten days later.
