Chapter 93 Promise (500 per order plus extra updates)
It was noon, and the sun shone into the study through the half-open window, coating the face of the young man lying by the window with a thin layer of golden light.
Under the golden light, the young man's face became soft and warm, his brows relaxed, and the cold aura that had persisted all year round was gone.
"Teacher Si, how about noon." Tang Zhao came in with food, breaking the quiet time at noon.
Si Liyu raised his eyelids slightly and hummed.
Noon is the time when the sword torture is at its lightest, and the nerves that have been tense all day can be relaxed a little. Even Si Liyu, who has always believed in "seizing the day and night," can't help but greedily enjoy a moment of ease at this time.
Si Liyu also didn't expect that his most leisurely time in several years would be stolen during the most tortured days.
Tang Zhao prepared the meal three times, five by two, and there was a lot of chicken, duck, and fish. There was only one meal at noon in the day. Si Liyu had no choice but to taste the taste, so he could only eat some liquid food in the morning and evening to satisfy his hunger. Tang Zhao also asked him if he needed to drink.
Being drunk would relieve the pain, but Si Liyu refused, saying: "I would rather suffer the pain of scraping my bones than lose control."
"Zhaozi, it's already the third day. I made an appointment with the guardian tonight. Are you ready?" Si Liyu took two mouthfuls of rice and stopped. Although he can eat now, his appetite will be tortured sooner or later.
Not much better.
Tang Zhaodao: "I may never be ready for it, but I feel much better than before. The Haechi Sword is very powerful, much stronger than a magical weapon. The more I use it, the more powerful I feel."
Si Liyu said: "How can this be compared? The Xiezhi sword is the sword of the judge, and it is also one of the best in our inspection department. If you can display half of your previous level, you will be no less than..."
He said nothing more halfway through, but Tang Zhao guessed that he was talking about the death penalty.
I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but he always felt that Si Liyu didn't really respect Xing Ji.
Tang Zhao asked: "Have you ever followed the judge?"
Si Liyu said: "I don't have that blessing. I was too young when the judge was here, and I only heard about his deeds in the training camp. But I admire him the most in my heart. I entered the Prosecution Department just because I wanted to be like him.
People are impartial, selfless, and clear-sighted. They are neither childish nor stern. They shine like the red sun and are as majestic as the mountains."
This time Tang Zhao was sure that Si Liyu really didn't respect the death penalty.
Si Liyu sighed: "It's a pity that I saw blood in the training camp and never had the chance to become a sword wielder. I heard that the sword can be used to the extreme, and it can even appear the swordsman's phantom when he was alive. I wonder if I am lucky enough to see him today?"
"
Tang Zhao said: "I don't know, I haven't activated the Quan Sword with all my strength. This sword needs to be inspired by righteous indignation. It's difficult to devote yourself to it without an enemy in front of you. Maybe you can do it after entering the devil's cave? I also want to meet the judge.
Sir." He shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm a little looking forward to the arrival of the Demon Cave and the end of this month's preparations for the war."
This month was too long and there were too many things. He was nervous and exhausted. He really wanted to overcome this disaster and start a new life again.
Si Liyu nodded and said: "I have ambition. Unfortunately, I was injured this time and could not use the magic weapon to go to the battlefield. The guard told me that I would not be assigned to the front line this time. I will do it then."
Use your magic weapon to follow the formation and fight according to the situation. When you enter the devil's cave, you should follow me. I will protect you and practice your skills by killing two phantom beasts and the like."
Tang Zhao thought to himself: Just your magic weapon that uses violent blood? It doesn't have to be just right, and said: "Okay. I'll go with you, a veteran. How many times have you entered the devil's cave? What's it like in the devil's cave?"
Si Liyu said: "This is my first time entering."
…
Seeing Tang Zhao's expression, Si Liyu said: "But I am in the reserve camp. I have been on duty at the perimeter several times during the Battle of the Devil's Cave. I have seen demons and even killed phantoms."
Of course, he would not say that the first time he killed a phantom was when Tang Zhao saw the beast phantom on the back of the killing spider.
But it is true that I have seen a demon.
Tang Zhao nodded and said, "Have you ever seen a demon? What does it look like?"
There are also references to demons in the literature. In short, they are ever-changing and come in all shapes. Most of them are weird and confusing.
Si Liyu recalled: "I have seen that one that looked like a mountain with eyes all over it. Its eyes would pop out. One eyeball once fell in front of me. It was as big as a person's head and could jump around on its own.
I wanted to stab it to death, but a brother next to me was faster than me, and it exploded in one fell swoop. It was covered with mucus and was poisoned. I was unconscious at the time. Later, the guardian killed the demon and the poison was removed.
, nothing happened, it’s just that I couldn’t see clearly for a few months.”
Tang Zhao couldn't help but feel hairy all over when he imagined that situation.
Si Liyu said: "You don't have to worry about not being able to tell the difference between the demons. There is only one demon in the small demon cave, and they are all very big and conspicuous. Their strength is at least swordsman level. The rest are servant phantoms, and even worse beasts.
, evil spirit. Generally, the heavenly demons are dealt with by the guardian envoys. You are qualified as a swordsman. At that time, the guardian envoys may ask you to fight the heavenly demons in a group. You can try to see if you can land the final blow - the guardian envoys will not.
Mind you. If you really make the first contribution, your future... your future will be limitless."
As he spoke, his face changed again and his speech became hoarse. It was obvious that the sword species was being tortured again.
Tang Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to support him and tapped a few acupoints on his body. These acupoints numbed the nerves and had a slight pain relief effect.
Si Liyu shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I only have half a day left."
Tang Zhao sighed and said, "Why don't you just sleep for half the day? I'll wake you up at the appointed time."
Si Liyu shook his head and said, "The sun is so good, I want to bask in it."
He sat back in front of the window, enjoying the warmth in pain.
Tang Zhao sat next to him and said: "Creating sword slaves and subjecting living people to such torture is considered unscrupulous, right? What great benefits can be produced to keep those people tossing?"
Si Liyu closed his eyes slightly and said: "Sword slave...I heard that the earliest people were not called sword slaves. The reason why they put sword seeds in their bodies was to avoid the devil. At that time, the battle on the front line was very difficult and there were very few swordsmen. Every day
Every sword species is very precious. But if the sword species leaks a little bit of its aura, it will attract the covetousness of the demon. In order to escort the sword species back to the swordsmith, some loyal people take the initiative to hide the sword species in their souls to isolate the demon.
He sacrificed his sight for this. So he was respectfully called a sacrifice at that time."
"Later, it was passed down from generation to generation, so it was called Sword Slave. Then I didn't know where I thought of beasts, and then it was associated with ancient slaves, and finally it was called Sword Slave."
The more Tang Zhao listened, the angrier he became, saying: "It was obviously a noble act, but now it has become a contemptuous term. What kind of bullshit is this?!"
Si Liyu curled his lips. He didn't have the energy to be angry, but he was disdainful and said: "Later, we discovered strange stones that can cover the breath, so there is no need to sacrifice. But I don't know which swordsmith discovered that the sword can be planted from the soul.
After it is taken out, it will become purer. Especially the sword of the deceased swordsman. The sword skills of those earlier sword elephants have remained, and the personal traces are too heavy, which is not good for future swordsmen. Originally, many methods were needed to remove them, but later they only needed to be removed in person.
A walk around the inspiration can make it clean and clean, so I started to deliberately create sword slaves."
"Later on, I became more and more crazy, and found that inspiration can not only refine sword types, but also refine materials collected from outside the territory, the devil's cave, wash away the sinister atmosphere, and make the materials look better. There is also a special word called...
Soul refining. When it develops to the end, all materials must be washed inside the sword slave."
Tang Zhaodao: "Aren't all sword slaves invaded by sword species?"
Si Liyu hummed: "How can there be so many types of swords? How can there be such suitable sword slaves? Most of those children who are sold in large numbers just have a little inspiration. Not to mention swordsmen, they can hardly hold heavy weapons. They can't bear it.
You can't afford a sword species. At least you need the posture of a swordsman, like you and me, to be a sword slave of a sword species. If you just wash some Yin evil materials, it may not be so painful, and there are some coercive means to take out the materials and save a life.
, but it’s still very bad because it hurts their inspiration. Many children have become sword slaves. Not only have their bodies collapsed, but their inspiration has been polished away, and they have become mediocre.”
Tang Zhao was shocked and angry, and then said: "Then you..."
Si Liyu said: "It's okay, the sword species doesn't hurt the inspiration. Maybe it's because the sword species was nurtured by heaven and earth, and it's not an invasion from outside, and it adapts to the human soul. It's just that after long-term training with the sword species, it's easy to deviate from the direction of the inspiration. So it can hold on.
The sword slave has the opportunity to become a swordsman, not because the sword type is just right for him, but because he finally cooperates with the sword type."
"In fact, no matter whether it is grinding off the traces of the sword or cleaning the negative material, later swordsmiths have other methods of cleaning swords, which are even more effective. However, because the cost of using sword slaves is the lowest, many people don't let go. I don't know.
How many precious swordsmen seedlings were abolished. It was obviously a waste of natural resources and harmed our own foundation. Later, the swordsmen of this dynasty came forward, the national master presided over, and signed an agreement with a group of swordsmiths to completely abolish the sword slaves, and those who violated it would be killed. Those who did not
Those who were willing to follow the right path fled all the way into the Gangliang Mountain and continued to do their shameless deeds under the protection of the Gangliang."
Tang Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "It's really unethical and a heinous crime. Why don't you level the two mountains?"
Si Liyu said: "There have been several conquests, but firstly, Wangliang is indeed powerful. Secondly... you also know that people on our side are divided. There are always people who don't want to destroy Jiangliang Mountain and secretly make trouble.
One and two times will never end. The commander also said that if the DPRK is not at peace, the two mountains will not be leveled. But I believe that there will be a day when the clouds will clear. Sooner or later, we will have a decisive battle with the two mountains. There are more than swords in that damn place.
Slave, there are all kinds of monsters and ghosts, it is the darkest place in the world. One day, let the sun rise to the Gangliang Mountain and dispel all the shadows."
He smiled slightly and said: "By then, you might already be a swordsman and be able to fight."
Tang Zhao said: "Yes. When the time comes, you will also be a swordsman, and we can still fight side by side."
Both were tortured by the sword species, and the two of them had long shared a hatred for each other. After making a verbal agreement to fight side by side, they both felt their blood boiling.
After finishing lunch in a hurry, Si Liyu went back to meditate, and Tang Zhao continued to practice his sword.
The sun set quickly on the third day.
The time has finally arrived.
The timing of the arrival of the Devil's Cave is calculated, and only by releasing the sword seeds carefully can the advantage be fully utilized. Tang Zhao definitely didn't understand the detailed algorithm, so he just followed the plan.
Si Liyu fell asleep early, which was Tang Zhao's request. He hoped that Si Liyu would not be conscious when taking the sword seed.
"This sword is for you..."
The moment he took out the sword with ease, that chilling sense of crisis appeared again!
Tang Zhao quickly placed the sword in a box made of strange stone, tied it to an arrow, pushed open the window, and shot the arrow into the air.
The arrow is a rocket, drawing a dazzling arc in the dark night.
Countless eyes are focused at this moment.
Including the one in heaven!
"Come on, Teacher Si, let's get started -" Tang Zhao said something about Jianghu, and ran down the rockery with Si Liyu on his back.
As soon as I came down the mountain, I felt a bit of cool air coming from nowhere. This breath is generally called——
Yin energy!
When I looked up, in addition to the bright moon, there was also a blue-white light wheel in the sky.
Woeful month!
The devil's cave is coming!
