Chapter 35 The Hidden Weapon Arrives
So when the work was done, it was already evening.
Du Ruo ate something casually in the restaurant. For some reason, Du Ruo always felt that he was getting hungrier and hungrier recently. Even if he ate a few bowls of rice during the meal, he always felt that something was missing.
When he returned to the yard of the B&B, two express parcels had already been placed there. This was the order he placed yesterday, which contained sewing machine needles. The B&B was filled in as the express address. After receiving it, Yang Ling helped Du Ruo put it in the yard.
Seeing the express package, Du Ruo couldn't wait to open it.
One hundred sewing machine needles were simply packed in several layers of plastic bags. Du Ruo took one out with his hand, and there seemed to be some oil stains on it.
The needle tip is very sharp, with a small groove of about two centimeters pressed out above the needle tip, and an oval hole in the middle of the small groove. The hole of a sewing machine needle is different from the hole for threading an ordinary embroidery needle. The hole of a sewing machine needle is in the front and is larger.
The back half of the needle is thickened, originally to make it easier to be fixed by the sewing machine, but now it is also easier for Du Ruo to grab.
What surprised Du Ruo even more was that the thickened part of the back half was wrapped with a layer of thin thread. Du Ruo tried it and found that it should have been fixed with glue as Du Ruo said. There was no sign of the thin thread falling off. The whole needle was originally made of steel, so even if the back half was thickened, it would not be convenient for fingers to clamp and apply force.
It is okay to use it with the yang hand, but if the yin hand uses the smooth steel and the equally smooth fingernail to rub, it is easy to slip and cause mistakes when force is applied. With the fine wire wrapping, there is an extra layer of friction, so slipping can be completely avoided.
Du Ruo played with it in his hand for a while, and became more and more satisfied. It was worth the higher price he paid. Otherwise, if he took it back and wrapped the thin thread around it himself, he really wouldn't be able to make it so firm and fine.
He quickly opened another package, which was a proportional acupuncture point map commonly used in medicine. The knowledge about hidden weapons that Du Ruo had obtained included a small amount of acupuncture point knowledge.
After all, many hidden weapons are small and lack certain lethality, so only by accurately hitting some acupoints can the power of the hidden weapons be increased to the greatest extent.
The purpose of Du Ruo buying this acupuncture point map is to use it as a target. When he can use the Yin hand to hit the acupuncture points within three meters and hit the target every time, or use the Yang hand to hit the vital points of the human body within ten meters and hit the target every time, then he will have mastered the art of hidden weapon skills.
Du Ruo couldn't wait to stick the acupuncture point map on a wooden board in the yard. He grabbed a hidden weapon on the table and flicked his finger. The hidden weapon in his hand flew out silently. Then the wooden board made a "thump" sound. The hidden weapon in Du Ruo's hand was firmly nailed to the wooden board with the acupuncture point map, and it was three feet deep into the wood.
The accuracy is still not enough, and it is impossible to accurately hit the red dots on the acupuncture point map. There is no accurate size for human acupuncture points, because the sizes are different depending on the body shape and each acupuncture point. But one thing that can be confirmed is that once the difference exceeds one centimeter, it can be basically determined that the acupuncture point has not been hit.
Du Ruo was not discouraged. He continued to pick up new hidden weapons and continued to throw them towards the blueprint. This was a long-term training program. Moreover, Du Ruo practiced this just as a hobby. In a society ruled by law, illegal and criminal things were not allowed.
"Ding dong~"
Du Ruo, who was practicing, heard the message alert tone of his mobile phone. He picked up the phone and saw that it was from Li Qiyao.
"Boss Du, according to what you said yesterday, I have redrawn the blueprint. Are you free now? If you are free, come to the tavern and take a look."
"almost there!"
Du Ruo replied, then washed his hands and walked towards the tavern.
When Du Ruo arrived, Li Qiyao seemed to have just arrived and was sitting in the old seat with Xiang Yuanyuan. Xiaojuan had just poured her some boiled water.
"Xiaojuan, give me a glass of water too." Du Ruo said to Xiaojuan who was about to leave, and then sat down opposite the two beauties without any hesitation.
"Come to the tavern to drink boiled water. If all the customers are like you, my tavern will have to close soon."
Xiang Yuanyuan must have been drinking for a while and had already eaten a lot of the side dishes on the table. Seeing that the two of them were just drinking plain water, she seemed to find it boring and pouted her lips and muttered.
"Hey, I have something to discuss with Ah Qi. It won't be too late to drink after we finish the work."
After saying that, he took the drawing handed over by Li Qiyao and looked at it carefully.
The more Du Ruo looked at it, the happier he was. Overall, this drawing was very consistent with the Panlong silk design in Du Ruo's mind, except for some minor differences. With some slight changes, there would be no problem at all.
"This is my first time drawing a design like this. I learned a lot of things on the spot. It was a good experience."
There was a hint of laziness in Li Qiyao's words. When she saw the smile on Du Ruo's face, she knew that her painting must be good.
"Professional things should be done by professionals. Ah Qi, you can just make some minor changes to these places. This... this..."
Du Ruo complimented, and then took the opportunity to point out some flaws that needed to be corrected. It was not that he was nitpicking, but the Panlong Silk was a very sophisticated weapon and a deadly weapon. This kind of thing could not tolerate any carelessness. Once the silk thread suddenly got stuck while in use, the owner might lose his life, so it could not tolerate any carelessness.
"Well, the parts you mentioned are very simple and can be modified quickly. After seeing your drawing, I already have an impression of this Panlong silk. I can draw a finished product drawing for you tomorrow. Do you have any requirements for the color of this Panlong silk? If so, I can also help you design it."
Li Qiyao didn't find it cumbersome. People like Du Ruo were much easier to deal with than some parents. Moreover, she could see the sophistication of this thing, so it was understandable that the other party had higher requirements.
"Oh?... Forget it. Please try to make the finished product look low-key. This is not jewelry, just a cutting tool. It doesn't need to be too conspicuous."
Du Ruo became interested after hearing this, but after thinking again, he shook his head. This was a combination of weapons and hidden weapons, and it was completely unnecessary to make it so beautiful or colorful.
"Okay, I'll give you both the design and the finished product."
Li Qiyao nodded lightly, and the matter was settled.
"Xiaojuan, as usual, bring some wine. Ah Qi, would you like something to drink?"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Du Ruo was in a good mood. He waved his hand and asked Xiaojuan to serve him wine. As for the side dishes, forget it, Xiang Yuanyuan still had some, so it would be okay for them to eat some together.
"I don't need to...eh?"
Li Qiyao shook her head to refuse, but as she shook her head, she saw a man coming in from the door. When she saw the man, Li Qiyao almost subconsciously frowned and shrank her body, as if she wanted to hide herself.
