Bab 1164: Second Kill

Knights had very strong vitality, which commoners might find unimaginable. 

Even a common fighter would not die right away after his head was chopped off on the battlefield. Actually, after an ordinary knight's head was chopped off, he would still be clear-minded for dozens of seconds, even a few minutes. Sometimes, he could still blink his eyes while trying to shriek miserably or say something. Even if one fighter suffered from an unimaginable, fatal wound, he might also stick to a few hours in a miraculous way. After experiencing so many battles, whether large or small, Zhang Tie had witnessed and encountered such similar occasions. 

Even commoners could display a strong vitality in emergencies, not to mention an earth knight.
