C29 Misunderstanding

"How can I fight with this?" Bailiu asked as she stretched her body. The joints on her body creaked, making her unable to use her family's martial arts. She couldn't help but complain.

"This is another problem." Chen Xing kept her from answering. After paying more than seventy gold coins, he walked out of the combat clothes shop and entered the cold weapons shop. He looked at the weapons in the shop and said, "You should learn to use weapons."

Then, he continued to explain in front of Bailiu's puzzled eyes, "Most of the creatures in the wilderness carry a virus. Unless you have no other choice, don't attack with your bare hands."

Bailiu nodded and listened seriously.

"I don't know what the martial arts of the Yeyang family are like, but I feel that they are mainly used to strengthen the body and not to kill the enemy. There is an old saying in my hometown that says 'even if you are skilled in martial arts, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife.' Although the fist and palm techniques are powerful, their lethality is far inferior to weapons." Chen Xing smiled and asked deliberately, "Are you sure?"

Bailiu rolled her eyes and ignored him.

Chen Xing stopped teasing her and continued to analyze, "You have a basic foundation in martial arts, so you can be considered to have a natural grasp of weapons. You just need to practice it a little and it will be effective."

"I learned Taiji Sword." Yeyang Bailiu said.

Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's fine …"

Yeyang Bailiu caught the change in his expression and said unhappily, "You want to say that it's useless?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant …" Chen Xing quickly waved his hand and said, "Taiji Sword is very good, but it's mainly used for duels. It's not very useful for field exploration. You should know that the vital parts of wild creatures are different from humans. There are even many that don't have any vital parts. For example, the 'One Sword Slits Throat' in the Taiji Sword Style. Even if you can cut off the throat of a living corpse, it can still bite you because their body structure is completely different from ours. Unless you directly cut off the head, you won't lose your ability to move. "

"You know a lot …" Yeyang Bailiu couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Xing nodded slightly, indicating that he had accepted her praise.

"Then what weapon do you think I should use?" Yeyang Bailiu asked.

Chen Xing did not answer and picked up a cold weapon that he had already chosen.

Seeing the thing he was holding, Yeyang Bailiu was unhappy. She tightened her face and covered it with a layer of frost. Her gaze was like a living corpse that was about to pounce on him, and she would bite him to death on the spot.

The thing in Chen Xing's hand was a rough one-handed iron hammer. It was nearly seventy centimeters long, and the cylindrical hammerhead was as thick as an adult man's arm. It emitted a black light that was ferocious and terrifying. It could not help but remind people of the consequences of being hit in the head.

It was not hard to imagine that the watermelon must have splashed on the ground.

"You... you bastard!" Yeyang Bailiu's lips turned white as she clenched her fists and scolded. The other party was bullying her too much. Not only did he take her body, he also humiliated her. Using such a thing to treat her as a burly man or a muscular man?

"Don't be angry first. Listen to my explanation." Chen Xing said sincerely, "If you think it's not appropriate after listening to it, then let's change it. What do you think?"

Under his persuasion, Yeyang Bailiu finally calmed down. She said with an unfriendly tone, "Then say it."

"First of all, you are not familiar with the creatures in the wild. You don't know where their weaknesses are. So using swords, spears, or daggers are not suitable. Secondly, your actual combat experience is very little, and you have not been specially trained to use them on the battlefield or in a narrow terrain. Thirdly, your weapon proficiency is still very low, and you can't unleash the full power of most of the weapons. However, the use of the Warhammer is very simple. With a single hammer strike, regardless of whether it's a living corpse or a necrophagous dog, the Sickle Beetle or the jumping centipede, the skin will be split open, the flesh will be torn, and the bones will be shattered. You will die."

"Think about it, if I were to be hit with such a hammer..." In order to persuade Yeyang Bailiu, Chen Xing had even put himself at risk. "To be honest, I don't even dare to think about it..."

Sure enough, after hearing that, Bailiu laughed and took the hammer from Chen Xing's hands. She carefully examined it, and no one knew what she was thinking. For a moment, Chen Xing's back was cold and sweat was pouring down his back. He subconsciously took a few steps back.

As if she had sensed his small movements, Yeyang Bailiu raised her eyes and glanced at him. Her almond-like eyes were filled with an inexplicable meaning.

"You should have a shield." As he spoke, Chen Xing walked to the other row of shelves and picked up a standard-sized guard's round shield.

Since he had already used the iron hammer, he did not care about the shield. Yeyang Bailiu accepted it happily and put it on her left hand.

"I dare say..." Chen Xing looked at Yeyang Bailiu, who was holding the iron hammer and wearing an alloy armor, a pair of red goggles, a short ponytail, and armed to the teeth. He said, "Now that you are standing in the bar, not many people will dare to approach you."

"Besides!" Yeyang Bailiu glared at him with a domineering aura, scaring Chen Xing to take a few steps back. Although it was an act, there was a part of it that was real.

*Beep! Beep! Beep!*

A moment later, with an electronic notification, Chen Xing's account was emptied of seven gold coins.

The amount of gold in his account: None (in cash), 216 gold, 7 silver, 3 copper, 9 credits (Bank)

The debt: 1 (Aaliyah): 100 gold, repayment date: 2612-6-20

After leaving the weapon shop, Chen Xing brought Yeyang Bailiu to the small garden behind the Inn and taught her how to use it.

Chen Xing took the Warhammer and retreated a distance away. He turned his body and gripped the hilt of the hammer tightly. Then, he spun around and swung the hammer from the top right to the bottom left.

"This is a fierce strike..." Then, he kicked forward with his foot. "This is a direct kick..." Then, he swung the shield forward. "This is a shield strike..." After demonstrating it a few times, Chen Xing returned the hammer to Yeyang Bailiu and instructed, "Just these three movements. Practice these movements here for the next few days."

"Alright." Yeyang Bailiu took the hammer and nodded seriously. She did not look down on it because of the simplicity of the movements.

She was a martial artist and knew the way of martial arts. Every simple movement needed to be tempered a thousand times before it could be used in a battle.

"Hah!" "Hah!" "Hah!"

After a while, Yeyang Bailiu started practicing. Her foundation was good and her movements were elegant and smooth. She was full of strength. Even though she had just learned it, she was already very powerful and shocking.

However, this was only on the surface. In fact, it was just a show. It was only good-looking but useless. Only when one formed an unconscious movement or even integrated it with their instincts could they unleash the greatest power in a very short period of time and form effective damage.

Chen Xing squatted at the side and watched silently.

While Yeyang Bailiu was practicing, she was focused and meticulous. In fact, every successful person had some characteristics that were similar. For example, they were humble and respectful towards the unknown, they were focused and serious, they were not arrogant and impatient, and so on.

At 7 PM, the sky was completely dark. The moon rose to the top of the wall, and the starry sky was bright and sparkling.

Chen Xing used the Black Watch to contact the driver, Yang, and asked him to come downstairs. Then, he called Yeyang Bailiu and went to the bar to have dinner together.

Yang had never seen Yeyang Bailiu before. When they first met, he did not see her clearly, so he just greeted her, "Big brother, hello!"

Chen Xing was instantly amused, but he did not dare to show it. It was as if he did not hear it. His face was still solemn and serious. At the same time, he saw from the corner of his eyes that Yeyang Bailiu's entire body trembled, and then without saying a word, she turned around and walked into the bar.

Yeyang Bailiu was half a head taller than Chen Xing. She was also a big skeleton, and she was wearing a thick alloy armor and a pair of dark red goggles that covered half of her face. She looked no different from a man, so it was no wonder that Yang would mistake her for a woman.

"What's wrong?" Yang asked blankly, "Did I say something wrong?"
