Qin Mu walked out of the balcony and looked back. Wei Yong stood blankly on the balcony, looking at the iron piece.
The butcher strode forward, walked side by side with him, and praised: "Your Taoist cultivation is so high that your sword skills are so good that even a piece of iron can be used by you with the power of a divine weapon.
"
Qin Mu was stunned and shook his head again.
This is not something worthy of praise. Compared with these ordinary magical power users, he is far beyond them in terms of vision, knowledge, Taoism, and background. Even if you give him a small stick, he can cut off the magic weapon.
.
The butcher smiled and said: "This time you have enlightened me and understood the sword of the law. It is clear that you are cutting off my prestige and calling me a brave man. But I walk with the sword and live happily in the world without the constraints of your rules and regulations. Your law
The sword cannot be better than my sword skills."
Qin Mu was silent, and after a moment, he said: "Grandpa Tu should have known about Wei Qinghe for a long time. Why didn't you kill him with a common man's knife, instead of keeping him waiting for me to kill him personally?"
"When I do it, I am always showing off my courage, and when you do it, you represent the direction of Yankang."
The butcher smiled freely and said: "In these years, you have been in Heaven and I have been in Yankang. I have seen too many similar things, and I have killed many with the bravery of an ordinary man, but what can I do? An ordinary man's knife cannot solve these things.
.Yankang is so big, and a single person cannot investigate the right and wrong of the entire Yankang. It needs Mu Tianzun to establish the law. I have been waiting for you to come back."
"There are always places in this world that Yankang's sword of law cannot reach. Maybe it still takes five steps of blood splashing like a common man's wrath."
Qin Mu thought for a while and said: "The imperial court needs to shine the sword of law and rectify the administration, but no matter how it is rectified, there are still some people like Wei Qinghe. Grandpa Tu, you are right, I am too close to the sky and too far from the earth.
Yuan, it’s time to reflect on myself. All my abilities originally came from the worldly world. After arriving in heaven, I began to study the innate way, trying to catch up with the Ten Heavenly Lords in a short time and give Yankang a chance to breathe and develop. These
Years ago, I had forgotten where my ability came from.”
The way of a saint lies in the daily needs of the people. He always thought that he was still on this path, but suddenly he looked back and found that he had deviated. It was not too late to come back now.
"You haven't changed your original intention, but you are still a good boy."
The butcher patted him on the shoulder and took him to the blacksmith shop in the new city. This is a place for making farm tools, not spiritual weapons. The blacksmith shop is hung with hoes, iron plows, kitchen knives and other items.
"A good shot."
The butcher sat down and said to the blacksmith: "I want an iron knife. Two pounds of iron for this boy."
He pointed at Qin Mu, who was also sitting on a long bench. The blacksmith brought the coarse tea and said, "I don't have the black iron, but I have the coarse iron."
"It's better if you don't have any iron. This guy can chop the magic weapon into pieces with just a piece of iron. Bring two kilograms of thick iron, and don't use one or two more, lest he be too good at cutting people and let this guy do it himself."
The butcher was drinking tea. The crude tea was bland, but he drank it with relish and said, "You blow the bellows for him and start the fight."
The blacksmith looked at Qin Mu suspiciously and saw that he was wearing unusual clothes. He smiled and said, "This is your noble master. How can he do such simple work?"
Qin Mu drank tea and said with a smile: "I was also a blacksmith back then. Why do you still have these farm tools in your shop? Aren't there daily soldiers?"
"I eat abalone all year round, but also eat simple meals."
The blacksmith smiled and said: "Besides, the people are not very rich. In recent years, the price of food has been too low. Asking people with supernatural powers to help harvest or asking daily soldiers to harvest is too high. Not everyone can afford it. These years
, Those people with supernatural powers have money, how can ordinary people have any money? Using these farm tools can also save some expenses."
Qin Mu drank tea silently, not finishing the bowl of tea for a long time.
Suddenly, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, put down the big bowl, stood up and said, "Come on, you blow the bellows, and I'll forge the iron."
The blacksmith selected some thick pieces of iron and made them for him.
Qin Mu exercised with the hammer. The blacksmith saw his skills and couldn't help but praise: "What a good blacksmith. If you open a shop, this old man's business will be destroyed by you!"
Qin Mu forged a thick iron knife, and the two kilograms of thick iron were tempered by him until they were made of dark iron, glowing with cold light and being chilly.
The butcher took the money and said, "No need to look for it. Mu'er, let's go. We have found our original intention. It's time to practice your knife for the next step."
Qin Mu did not follow him, but said, "I still have some things to deal with urgently."
The butcher's heart moved slightly, he stopped and looked up to the sky.
When the blacksmith saw that the two of them were generous, he was so happy that he suddenly raised his head and suddenly saw stars appearing in the sky.
It's a clear day and there are stars, and the stars are so dazzling. It's really strange!
The starlight was moving, and one of the big stars was surrounded by hundreds of small stars. As the starlight got closer and closer, the stars became more and more clearly visible.
Swish——
Stars fell from the sky and landed in Jiangling New City. They were the civil servants of the Yankang court, the officials responsible for the administration of officials.
"Officials of the Ministry of Personnel, please see the Imperial Preceptor!" The hundred or so officials hugged the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, bowed in unison, and said in unison.
"No need to be polite."
Qin Mu raised his hand, unlocked the seal of his own cultivation, and said to the dumbfounded blacksmith: "I will be rewarded for borrowing your shop."
The blacksmith hurriedly pushed it to the inner room. Qin Mu took the sacred gold and divine materials from the ancestral court and smelted and forged them in public. The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the gods of the Ministry of Personnel looked up and saw legal texts floating in the air.
This small blacksmith shop filled the air and spread throughout Jiangling New City. The text of the law was accompanied by the majestic sound of the law, which kept roaring and vibrating, as if an impartial judge was reciting a series of Yankang Iron Laws!
In Jiangling New Town, countless people walked to the streets one after another, listening to the voices of those who recited the law, and they felt enchanted.
Wei Yong and the few divine men from Jiangling never left. They looked at the legal texts falling from the sky and were in a daze.
Along with Qin Mu's forging and reciting, those legal words were smashed into a magic sword and turned into iron laws and the power of the magic sword.
After a long time, Qin Mu dispersed the divine fire, threw away the hammer, and holding a sword of law in his hand, his voice resounded throughout the city, and he said in a deep voice: "Officials of the Ministry of Personnel, come forward and receive the sword."
The officials of the Ministry of Personnel came forward, and the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel bowed and raised his hands.
"Is Yankang's law a rule of man or a rule of law? Is it a rule of law or a rule of law? Is the old law of Yankang still in line with today's times?"
"Yankang's Taoist and magical powers need to be changed. Do Yankang's laws need to be changed?"
"Have the good laws of the past turned into evil laws now? How to punish evil, how to promote good, and how to achieve justice?"
"It is impossible to completely abandon the rule of man. How to strike a balance between the rule of man and the rule of law?"
“Is the Lawman self-disciplined, heteronomous, or lawful?”
"Lord of the Ministry of Personnel!"
“The law is related to what the people want!”
"The people's heart is the sword. It is the most powerful magic sword. It can kill one or two corrupt officials, or it can destroy a powerful country. You, sir, care about the people's hearts for me."
"Today I give you the sword on behalf of the imperial court, and I entrust you with the reform of the law!"
Qin Mu bowed and presented the sword of law. The official minister came forward, held the magic sword in both hands, bowed his head and stepped back, joining the other officials. He said solemnly: "Where the law is, the officials will go through fire and water to live up to the hearts of the people of the world!
"
…
Qin Mu followed the butcher out of Jiangling New City and followed suit. This time, the new city's sword ceremony will cause a big shock in Yankang. The reform of the law will definitely be promoted, and perhaps a clear political situation will be restored to Yankang.
"Grandpa Tu, where will we go to the next level?"
"This mortal world is a great holy land, and it is also a great purgatory. All living beings are transcended in this holy land, and they are also sinking in this purgatory. There are too many injustices in the world, too many fights, overt and covert fights, intrigues, and countless intrigues. The way of the sword must be
Refining in the world of mortals also requires refining in the battlefield."
The butcher said: "I will take you to the battlefield. Although you are my apprentice, you have never been to the battlefield. You have only experienced the war in Tai Huang Tian. Back then..."
He was in a daze, and then shook his head: "It's okay not to say anything."
Qin Mu asked curiously: "Since Grandpa Tu has said something, why doesn't he continue?"
The butcher hesitated for a moment and saw that he was not as dignified as before, so he awarded the official the sword of law. Qin Mu's Taoist heart became stronger again and became even better than before.
The butcher was also happy for him, so he didn't hide it from him and said: "I was considered a talented man back then. Although I was tall and burly, I was well-read in poems, books, articles, poems and songs, and I was well-known. At that time, I was a man of letters.
, indulged in debauchery and money, wandering among the flower streets and willow alleys. Until the enemy invaded, the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. I saw the tragic situation at that time, so I threw away my pen and ink, drew my sword and joined the army to go to the battlefield. Hundreds of Jiangnan talents who went with me returned.
of……"
He said solemnly: "It's just me."
Qin Mu patted his shoulder.
The butcher exhaled a breath and said: "The knives on the battlefield are different from the knives you come into contact with in ordinary times. The knives on the battlefield are both killing knives and salvation knives."
Qin Mu was slightly startled and asked for advice.
The butcher said: "The sword kills the enemy, but saves the country behind it and the people living in the country. A common man's knife will splatter blood in five steps, expressing gratitude and grudges. A battlefield knife will gallop thousands of miles, leaving blood on both hands and countless lives!"
Follow me to the battlefield to meet my comrades!"
Qin Mu was shocked and followed him.
They traveled for dozens of days and came to the battlefield in southern Xinjiang. After the Ten Heavenly Lords separatized the Yuan Realm, the pressure on Yankang increased greatly. The first wave of forces to attack Yankang was a mixture of humans and demigods under the command of the Fire Heavenly Lord of the Southern Territory.
, attack Yankang, seize the city and seize the territory.
These gods, demons and supernatural beings come from Southern Heaven and are the human race and demigods of Southern Heaven.
Butcher and Qin Mu each changed their names and signed up to join the army.
"The army on the opposite side is also a human being." A soldier looked at the army on the opposite side and said in a trembling voice.
"Don't think so."
A veteran comforted him and said: "Think about it, behind you, there is Yankang! It is the people of Yankang! If you treat the enemy on the opposite side as a human being, you will be the one who will die, and you will have to protect him."
the people!"
"Huchi, wheeze..."
Some people were panting heavily, swinging their legs, their faces were blue with nervousness, and they were a little out of breath: "This is my first time on the battlefield. I used to follow other soldiers in the university to practice. I never
I have never really been in battle..."
"Just follow me later."
A veteran with a scar on his face smiled and said: "Do you still remember what the teacher taught you in class? When you see someone waving a flag in the sky, stand up. When you hear the drum beat, if you beat the drum continuously, you will move forward. When the drum beat becomes louder, you will run and charge.
If you hear the sound of drums, you will stop; if you hear the sound of drums and cymbals, you will retreat. Furthermore, there will be people who are proficient in spiritual consciousness and will convey it to our minds with spiritual consciousness, and there will be no mistakes."
The scarred veteran looked at Qin Mu again, handed over the hookah, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are not nervous, are you a veteran? Smoke this, it tastes good."
Qin Mu took the hookah, took a sip, and said, "I once went to the battlefield of Taihuangtian and fought blindly for a while."
"The Taihuang Heavenly Battlefield? That happened more than twenty years ago."
The scar-faced veteran became energetic and waved: "Come to this brother later, our whole team is coming over!"
Several other supernatural power users gathered together, and the scar-faced veteran laughed and said: "Here is a veteran who has been to the Taihuang Heaven! When the fight starts, we will charge into the battle together. Follow him, and the chance of survival will be greater! Come on!
Come on, everyone remember each other’s faces and be sure to get familiar with each other.”
