Chapter 159 Stone Lock
In fact, what Ling Tao asked the villagers to prepare was not a good thing, but after learning that there was a mason in the village, he asked him to help cut some stone locks. That's right, Ling Tao wanted to test his strength with this kind of thing.

Two days ago, Ling Tao found the stonemason, and after expressing his requirements, the other party confidently told Ling Tao that there was no problem, and it could be done in a few days, even if he was satisfied.

"Mr. Ling, you are here, haha, I have prepared everything you want for you, are you satisfied?" The mason, a short, fat and cheerful man, smiled after seeing Ling Tao.

"Brother Zhou Gui has worked hard." Ling Tao nodded and said. He has always held a respectful attitude towards craftsmen. After all, people create things with their hands. This is craftsmanship, and it can also be said to be the inheritance of civilization.

In today's era when all kinds of crafts are replaced by industrial objects, craftsmen who still retain ancient crafts are rare.

"Mr. Ling, according to your request, using the scales you brought back, I made a total of ten stone locks, namely fifty catties, eighty catties, one hundred catties, 120 catties, 140 catties, 160 catties, and 180 catties. Two hundred catties, 230 catties and 260 catties, I was thinking about getting some heavier ones, but now I only got so much, are you satisfied?" Zhou Gui patted his head and pointed to a Paishuo said.

Following the direction of his fingers, sure enough, a row of stone locks made of bluestone were placed on the side, from small to large, although a little rough, they looked pleasing to the eye.

These stone locks were all weighed with the scales that Ling Tao and the others found from the villagers' homes. The weight may be a bit surprising, but it's not a big deal for the first time, and it can fully meet Ling Tao's requirements for testing the strength.

"Satisfied, satisfied, it's really great, thank you, Brother Zhou Gui." Ling Tao walked to the edge of the stone lock, looked at this and that, and nodded repeatedly.

"Haha, as long as you are satisfied, as long as you are satisfied. By the way, Mr. Ling, I, Zhou Gui, am a rough man. I can probably guess what you want me to do with these stone locks. Now, can you show me your strength?" , Zhou Gui looked at Ling Tao expectantly and said.

Even Zhou Taigong next to him looked at Ling Tao, wanting to see how strong this young man who had brought him so many surprises was.

"Hehe, what's the point, it's just right, I'll also see how many kinds of stone locks I can lift," Ling Tao said, without refusing, it's not something shameful, it's okay to show them.

Then, under the expectant eyes of Zhou Gui and Zhou Taigong, Ling Tao put the broad sword beside him when he went out, and came in front of a row of stone locks.

After looking at it, he first tried the lightest fifty-jin stone lock, lifted it easily, and then held it high above his head. Although it was heavy, he didn't feel the slightest effort.

"Okay, although there are quite a few villagers who can lift this [-]-jin stone lock, they can't find a few who can lift it as easily as Brother Ling. Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy." Zhou Taigong watched from the side Lao Huai said with great comfort.

Ling Tao smiled and said nothing, put down the [-]-jin stone lock, directly passed the [-]-jin stone lock, stretched out his right hand and grabbed the [-]-jin stone lock, then exerted force on his waist, and let out a soft hey, [-]-jin The stone lock was lifted by him with one hand, and with a flip of his arm, he lifted the one hundred catty stone lock above his head, as if it had taken root under his feet, and remained motionless.

"Okay..." At some point, a large circle of villagers surrounded Ling Tao and immediately burst into applause when they saw Ling Tao easily lift the one-hundred-jin stone lock.

Ling Tao smiled and didn't say anything. He could feel that although a stone lock of one hundred catties was very important to him, he didn't find it strenuous. It was far from his limit.

Then, he tried the 140-jin one again, and he lifted it up with ease, but felt a little bit hard. When he put down the 140-jin one, he tried the 180-jin one directly, exhaled loudly, lifted it up, and lifted the 180-jin Although Ling Tao felt the heavy stone lock was strenuous, his body remained motionless, as if roots had taken root under his feet.

Ling Tao lifted the 140-jin stone lock, and the villagers cheered, and the 180-jin stone lock, the villagers cheered even more, but after he lifted the 180-jin stone lock, the villagers stopped talking and all looked at him like a monster. You know, he was holding a [-]-jin stone lock in one hand, so the villagers looked at Ling Tao as if they were looking at a monster.

Putting down the 180-jin stone lock, Ling Tao heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he set his eyes on the [-]-jin stone lock, his eyes shone with excitement. Lifting the [-]-jin stone lock meant that he stepped into the The threshold of a first-tier fighter, if he can persist for half an hour, he will have half a foot into the strength of a first-tier fighter. As long as his speed reaches the average speed of [-] meters and [-] seconds, he can be completely promoted to Tier [-] warrior.

Then, under the incredulous gaze of the villagers, he walked up to the [-]-jin stone lock. After a moment of silence, he stretched out his right hand and grabbed the handle of the stone lock.

"Drink..." Ling Tao breathed out, his feet stepped on the ground like old trees taking root, his waist was strong, his arms shook, and he lifted up the two hundred catties stone lock. The stone lock that weighed [-] kg was lifted up by him!

At such a scene, the villagers were silent for a while, and then burst into applause. They really did not expect that Ling Tao, who does not look strong, could lift a stone lock of two hundred catties with one hand. This is really amazing. Shocked them.

Different from the men's adoring eyes, the big girls and young daughter-in-laws in the village, after seeing Ling Tao so "mighty", their eyes lit up again and again. Women worship the strong because the strong will bring them a sense of security. At this time, Ling Tao If Tao wants to do something to those big girls and little daughters-in-law, he really shouldn't be too easy...

It's a pity that Ling Tao didn't pay attention to their eyes at all. He lifted the [-]-jin stone lock, and he didn't lift it up like before and put it down. Instead, he kept holding it with his right hand like this, wanting to see how long he could last. How far is there from a Tier [-] fighter?

Simply lifting heavy objects is not difficult, but what is difficult is lifting for a long time, let alone with one hand, it is even more difficult, and lifting two hundred catties with one hand is the standard for a first-order fighter. This is why there are only about [-] first-tier fighters among the millions of soldiers in China.

The so-called learned arts and martial arts are sold to the emperor's family. The elites selected from the thousands of troops can already be regarded as the vast majority of elites in the entire China. This shows how difficult it is to silence the first-order fighters.

Don't look at those international weightlifting champions who can gather hundreds of kilograms of barbells, but they lift them with both hands and put them down after only a few seconds. Let them lift two hundred kilograms with one hand for half an hour. Individuals can do it.

Sports competitions are just performances, and those who are truly capable don’t bother to be seen as monkeys. For example, Ip Man Huo Yuanjia and Chen Zhen in history, if it weren’t for the time when the country was ruined and their families were destroyed, how could they go to the arena Go to Dasheng and beat him to death?

Closer to home, Ling Tao lifted the 5-jin stone lock with one hand. At the beginning, he just felt a little strenuous, but he didn't feel much, but as time passed, his physical strength became more and more difficult. After 10 minutes, his forehead I started to sweat, and after 13 minutes, my whole body was sweating profusely. At 15 minutes, my face started to turn red. At 8 minutes, my arms started to tremble. After [-] minutes, my legs started to tremble. It made him want to throw away the stone lock in his hand, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted, wanting to see how far he was from a first-order fighter.

His condition made the surrounding villagers terrified. If the stone lock Lingtao, which was bigger than a millstone, couldn't lift it and fell, it would probably blow his head off!
But Ling Tao didn't speak, they could only watch, the more they watched, the more surprised they became, and they already regarded Ling Tao as a monster in their hearts.

About 25 minutes later, Ling Tao couldn't hold on any longer. He gritted his teeth and pushed his body hard. The stone lock shook upwards. He took the opportunity to take a step back, put the stone lock down, and hit the ground with a loud bang. Shock, but it startled the surrounding villagers.

Then, the villagers who came back applauded loudly, and their excited slaps were almost red.

"I persisted for about 25 minutes, and there is still a certain gap between the strength standard of a first-order fighter, but it is fast, and I will soon reach this standard. With my current strength, it is not difficult to grab a stone lock of two hundred catties , it’s hard to hold on for how long, in fact, if I simply want to grab the stone lock, I’m afraid I can lift three hundred catties now, but I can’t hold on for a while, it’s too much of a burden on my body,” Ling Tao panted On the one hand, he secretly said in his heart.

Knowing the level of his strength, he had a little bit of a bottom line in his heart, and he had a clearer understanding of the next action.

After thinking about it, Ling Tao frowned, and thought to himself: "Uncle Liao didn't explain clearly when he explained it. The strength of this level of fighters, is the left hand holding two hundred catties for half an hour or the right hand? Is it possible? Both hands must meet this standard to be called a first-order fighter? From this point of view, I am afraid that I am not far from a first-order fighter. Regardless, I have to practice with both hands to lift a two hundred catty stone lock. In this way, the strength standard of a first-order fighter is properly established, right? This group must be right... ".

It would be the most deceptive thing to say that the information is not clear enough. When Uncle Liao explained the standard system of Ling Tao and Wang Jun's first-level fighters, he didn't make it very clear. He just gave a general introduction. As a result, Ling Tao is now in a predicament, but this is a good thing for Ling Tao...
