Chapter 23: Possessing a sharp weapon, murderous intention arises
Mr. Xing was also stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "This town is the fifth-level guardian envoy of the imperial court. It controls the evil spirits of heaven and earth for thousands of miles, and protects the people of Li. Would you hide in the bushes and shoot cold arrows?"
Tang Zhao said unceremoniously: "If it were any other adults, I would never guess like this, but you...are you, right?"
Lord Xing chuckled: "Even if it's me, do you think this town will admit it?"
Tang Zhao could only marvel. The lower limit of this fifth-rank official was really low.
"why?"
"what why?"
"You are a fifth-rank official, why are you hiding in the grass?"
Lord Xing smiled and said, "Didn't you just say that this isn't strange?"
Tang Zhaodao: "I mean you can do such a thing, but you have to have a reason, right? Just like you pretending to be the person from Black Spider Villa today, you have a purpose, right?"
Master Xing smiled and said: "Guess what? Since you thought it was me, you should have thought about the cause and effect, right?"
Tang Zhao said helplessly: "Didn't you ask me to ask? In the end, you still want me to guess? I guess it's for... for expulsion?"
Lord Xing nodded and said, "Yes, I patrol the ginkgo forest to expel idiots, unlucky people and annoying people who come in."
Tang Zhao pointed at himself, and Master Xing said: "You are an unlucky guy, you are rare, so I will let you go. The other two are mostly the ones."
Tang Zhao frowned and said: "Yang Yishi..."
Master Xing wrote lightly: "He is a fool. If he had made some preparations in advance and went to the county to inquire, he would have known that the imperial court had issued an official document on the transfer of the place of exchange, and that the Xue Mansion had long been unable to exchange the place, and it was useless to leave. If he had been more cautious,
When you see that the bridges on the river are all broken, and they were cut down by humans, you should guess that something happened on the other side, and you should retreat. How can you cut down trees and build bridges? If you don't do anything, you can see that you are a heartless person. So.
Also a nuisance."
Tang Zhao said feebly: "Yang Yishi is a foreigner and came from a long way..."
Mr. Xing said: "Isn't that even more stupid? He came all the way without any preparation? It's fine if he is a child. He has grown a lot. Apart from stupidity, he has no other advantages. For example,
The courage to fight to the death in the face of threats? The courage to bend and stretch? The calmness to analyze problems? Even if it means rushing towards an arrow? I will let him go and maybe give him a benefit, just like I did to you. It's a pity that he
He is really mediocre and boring, and I don’t know what to say. If it weren’t for your sake, I would let him jump into the ditch with that stupid donkey.”
Tang Zhao said in disbelief: "You just said he was a fool, and now you say you hope he will rush forward regardless of life or death?"
Mr. Xing smiled and said: "At least different, right? I hope to see people who are beyond ordinary people, people who can do things that others cannot. Even if it is stupidity that is beyond ordinary people, great stupidity is almost brave. If it is true thinking, the courage to risk one's own life
, is particularly precious. I will especially like such a person." He stared at Tang Zhao.
Tang Zhao could understand his hint, but he still found it difficult to accept it, and said, "Could it be that you deliberately insulted a righteous man and forced him to almost commit suicide because you personally despise him?"
Mr. Xing was stunned and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Tang Zhao continued: "You have great martial arts skills. You can hate the person who doesn't attack you and humiliate him to your heart's content. You can also hate the person who attacks you and kill him if you think it's too stupid. Isn't this all based on a thought? I know Jianghu
A strong man can do whatever he wants. But aren't you an official of the court? Isn't he a truly righteous man of the court?"
"As a righteous man, shouldn't he get a little respect from the court? As an official, shouldn't you give him a little respect? Even if it's just an ordinary 'This road is blocked'?"
"There's no reason to argue between the court officials and the court's righteous men? I...I really think it's wrong for you to be like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, the power that had gradually calmed down in his body began to boil again.
The snow-white sword blade flashed with an arc of light, filled with awe-inspiring meaning.
That cold light was hesitant and ready to come out!
In an instant, an emotion surged out of Tang Zhao's heart, which was close to indignation. He was extremely impulsive and was about to swing his sword out——
Xing Ji stood upright with his hands clasped tightly on the table, like a cheetah ready to attack, but he still glanced at the scabbard in his busy schedule.
The silver unicorn beast on the scabbard is lifelike, its eyes are getting brighter and brighter, the silver is almost dazzling, and its wide-open eyes look like angry glares!
Dang clang——
Tang Zhao threw the sword into the sword case and stood there, breathing heavily.
The long sword was released from his hand, the power was instantly withdrawn, and the uncontrollable anger gradually subsided.
Xing Ji stared at him and said: "Since you are filled with righteous indignation, why don't you draw your sword? Didn't you feel it just now? You have the strength to draw your sword."
Tang Zhao gasped: "Can you draw a sword if you have the strength? That's not my strength, and it's not just my anger."
He would be angry and impulsive, but there was an emotion in that anger that he had never seen before——
Killing intent!
The murderous intention was like a tight thread connecting his heart and the sword in his hand.
If you have murderous intention, you will kill someone!
"What the hell is this? I just said, it's wrong to kill someone because of your likes and dislikes!"
He had liked that handsome sword just now, but it seemed that the sword provided more than just power, but went straight to his heart.
Is it a twist?
No, he said what he thought, but it was amplified, like adding fuel to the fire.
Is this a serious sword?
Isn't it the evil sword mentioned in the story that breeds murderous intent and controls people's hearts?
Lord Xing was silent, looking at the sky, seeming to be sad and a little disappointed, but the most similar thing was still remembering, saying: "You don't want to kill me, but you still think I am wrong."
Tang Zhao nodded.
Without his strength, he seemed to have also lost part of his courage. He seemed to no longer dare to criticize a high-ranking and powerful person in a lengthy speech. But he was not yet willing to deny his inner feelings.
Lord Xing glanced at the scabbard, and the divine beast's eyes dimmed, and said: "You think I am wrong. The sword also thinks I am wrong. Then...it should be me who is wrong."
Tang Zhao was confused: Can the sword judge right from wrong? Doesn't it just follow my judgment? It still has independent thoughts?
Could it be that if he just said that Master Xing was wrong and Jian didn't think so, the murderous intention would not have arisen? His strength would not have skyrocketed?
Then it does not inspire murderous intent, but punishes evil and promotes good?
etc……
One horn, angry eyes, right and wrong...
Isn't that just...
Master Xing said: "Pick up the sword. It won't encourage you to kill. In fact, think about it for yourself, even with the power of the sword, can you kill me?"
Tang Zhao shook his head and said: "I don't know, just now I really felt that I was invincible. Sir, are you more powerful?"
Master Xing said: "No matter how powerful a sword is, it can't defeat the sword and the swordsman." He pointed to his waist, where there was a sword hanging, "What's more, this sword is sealed. Don't look at what you just thought.
It’s amazing, actually, maybe even if it hits me, I’ll be unscathed.”
Hearing what he said, Tang Zhao was disappointed. Just now he really felt that he had a sword in his hand that was invincible. Was it an illusion?
He doubtfully picked up the sword again, and the power came back. This time the power was no longer like a blazing flame, but like a quiet lake, calm but unfathomable.
Has such power been sealed before? What a miracle it would be to be unlocked?
Master Xing said: "Okay, do you have anything else to ask? The time you can ask is only when you pick up the sword, and there is not much time."
Tang Zhao obviously felt tired. That burst of energy came at a price. The power in his body was still strong, but he felt exhausted both physically and mentally. It seems that there is a time limit for mastering such power, and it was greatly shortened by the wave just now. He
Then asked the second urgent question: "Have I... met Master Xue?"
Master Xing had a neutral expression on his face and said casually: "Well, didn't you see him in front of Xue's house that day?"
Sure enough... that old man was Daxia Xue.
Tang Zhao had already guessed, but was still a little confused, and whispered: "He is much older than I thought... Mr. Chen was not that old when he passed away."
Mr. Chen also calls Mr. Xue Daxia my brother.
Master Xing said: "He was not like this two months ago." There was a subtle sigh in his tone.
Tang Zhao asked again: "Why did he, a great hero from the county, come to open the door?"
Master Xing said: "There is no one else in the house, who will open the door if he doesn't? Don't I patrol it myself?"
Tang Zhaodao: "Did we encounter some big trouble and evacuated everyone else? Only two bare commanders were left?"
Lord Xing simply said: "Yes."
"Could it be..." Tang Zhao then asked, "A sinister disaster?"
Mr. Xing said: "A sinister disaster...according to ordinary people's understanding, let's just say it is."
Tang Zhao said: "Is the Chief Inspector here to rescue him? Can he still be saved?"
The wording in that letter was clearly an explanation of the funeral arrangements, but Tang Zhao was so arrogant that he was arresting people and expropriating land, so it didn't look like he was hopeless?
He really hopes he can save it. There are not many people who are good to him in this world, and they are always withering away.
Mr. Xing said: "You are smart, and I won't hide it from you. The Prosecution Department is chasing evil. If we say that we are foolproof, where did those displaced refugees in the countryside come from? If we say that we are useless, I will wait.
We have actually saved thousands of ordinary people. It is the same this time. We, including Master Xue, prepared for the worst, but we did not give up our efforts. As the saying goes, do your best, listen..."
At this point, he sneered and said, "How can you say you obey fate? We have to act against nature."
He looked Tang Zhao squarely in the face and said, "Are you willing to join us?"
I've written this chapter several times, so I'm sorry for the late update.
This is the first sword I've written. I hope it doesn't sound too arrogant. Various swords will appear one after another in the future.
