24 hours to save the world
Chapter 40: Coming Back Again
An afternoon passed, and Zhu Shijiu finally learned another skill - one of the fancy archery skills, multiple bow shooting!
Although he only learned it initially, thanks to his corrected posture, he looked quite good.
"You are really talented. Are you sure you don't want to consider becoming a professional archer? I think you have the potential to play in competitions, at least you can go further than me."
Du Fei's expression was both regretful and disappointed.
Zhu Shijiu said perfunctorily: "Forget it, I'm just playing with bows and arrows."
"Don't squander your talent casually." Du Fei patted Zhu Shijiu on the shoulder, "Also, don't read novels. No one can catch arrows with bare hands, so don't try it."
"...Haha."
Zhu Shijiu laughed awkwardly twice, then packed the bow and arrows into the bow bag and prepared to leave.
"Oh, right."
Du Fei suddenly seemed to remember something.
"I'll give you a suggestion about your archery... Actually, I've wanted to say it for a long time, but I'm afraid you don't want to hear it."
"What?"
Zhu Shijiu thought to himself, after so many rounds, is there anything else Coach Du can teach him about archery?
Du Fei sighed: "To be honest, your arrows are too lifeless."
"What?"
Zhu Shijiu was a little dazed.
"Maybe I'm talking too much, don't mind. But from my point of view, your arrows have no passion at all, which is not the attitude to learn archery. If you keep learning archery like this, you will never be able to shoot creative arrows."
It seems that Du Fei said something similar in the last round, and she said it more deeply this round.
"Creative arrows? What is that? Is it also a realm of archery?"
It sounds quite mysterious.
"No, it's not a state of mind." Du Fei shook his head and said, "Archery requires passion. As long as there is passion, even ordinary archery novices can occasionally shoot such an arrow-"
"--It's like a bluebird flying across the cloudless sky, a tender bud growing in the forbidden area of life, the first drop of rain falling in the sultry summer... It's an arrow that makes you feel that it can be called a 'stroke of genius'."
"But if you can't step out of your comfort zone and only have the target in your eyes, no matter how calm your heart is and how accurate your shooting is, the best result in the end is just 'hitting the target'."
"It is certainly worth rejoicing to reach the goal through hardships, but that is just the normal feedback from God for all the efforts you have made. But compared to this joy, isn't it more surprising when learning archery when you shoot an arrow that exceeds your level?"
An arrow that exceeds your level?
Zhu Shijiu was a little dazed.
He felt that Du Fei's words woke him up like a stick.
Isn't this what he pursued?
What he needs is not the perfect archery skills that can only be practiced after dying hundreds of times, but the arrow that surpasses the level as long as it is effective, even if it is a coincidence!
Zhu Shijiu asked: "Did your grandfather teach you this?"
Facing Zhu Shijiu's question, Du Fei rolled his eyes: "No! I figured it out myself!"
At this time, Zhu Shijiu knew that he was far from understanding the essence of Du Fei's archery.
When he realized this, Zhu Shijiu hesitated a little, and even the action of packing up the bow and arrow was much slower. He was thinking, should he spend one or two rounds to learn archery from Du Fei?
Zhu Shijiu had a hunch that if he could learn the essence of Du Fei's archery, then his archery would definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
However, Du Fei did not have too many twists and turns. She saw Zhu Shijiu's movements slowed down and asked casually.
"What's wrong? Don't you have something to do?"
"I..."
"If there is something important, do it first. Anyway, you are always welcome to come here. You can also sign up for a course at the archery hall. I can give you systematic training. If you apply for a membership card, the membership price can be discounted by up to 30%..."
Zhu Shijiu: "..."
He was speechless. Du Fei said so much and actually wanted to sell courses? He couldn't figure out which of the words this woman said was serious.
Zhu Shijiu waved goodbye to Du Fei with emotion: "Next time I see you, you probably won't recognize me again."
Du Fei shook her black hair: "How could it be! My memory is not that bad!"
The two parted in the grove.
When Zhu Shijiu said goodbye to Du Fei, Du Fei's expression was still reluctant, as if he was reluctant to see a sponsor leave.
Finally, Zhu Shijiu said.
"I'll come again tomorrow."
But that's for the next round.
...
Can this round successfully kill those men in black? Zhu Shijiu was actually pessimistic about this possibility. If he had really mastered archery now, he would have been very confident, but the successive deaths taught him to be humble and think about failure before victory.
In fact, he had more means in the last round. It was impossible for him to spend four thousand dollars just to buy a mannequin and a mobile phone, but none of the subsequent means were used because the plan had died in the first half.
Only by cracking the abnormal reaction speed of the man in black could we continue to talk about the follow-up.
In the process of repeated attempts, Zhu Shijiu noticed a sentence that Du Fei emphasized many times.
Before she first learned to be "quiet", Du Fei said, "If you think about how to hit the target every time you shoot an arrow, you will miss it most of the time."
After learning to be "quiet", Du Fei said, "If you only have a target in your eyes, no matter how calm your mind is and how accurate your shooting is, the best result in the end is just a 'hit'".
Du Fei simply meant not to aim deliberately, and Zhu Shijiu understood this. But now he extended his thinking based on Du Fei's words and thought of a question.
——Do you need to target your opponent?
You know your opponent's position every time, and just using your life to remember it has already cost you so many lives. Do you still need to aim?
To put it more simply, even if he can't see anything in front of him, he still knows which arrow should be shot in which direction, so why not take advantage of this?
No matter how strong the man in black was, could he aim and shoot at him while still being unable to see anything?
…
After dinner, Zhu Shijiu bought a few things with the last remaining money.
The mannequins used in the previous project, clothes with pockets, and the cheapest 100-yuan mobile phone from a street stall.
These are the most cost-effective props that have been proven in practice and can successfully deceive the man in black.
Next he bought something he couldn't use last week - firecrackers.
He originally planned to deal with the support staff after defeating the two men in black from the security team, but unfortunately it was too good to be true. He decided to use the firecrackers directly this week.
Finally, Zhu Shijiu bought two dry powder fire extinguishers for firefighting.
"Bastards, here I go again!"
