sword sentient beings

Chapter 45 Direction
After an unknown period of time, Tang Zhao woke up slowly.

Blinking to refresh the dizziness in front of his eyes, his thoughts and spirit returned from inexplicable places and stuffed them into his buzzing head again.

what time is it now?
The sun shone in through the window paper, and it was already high in the sun.

Isn't it... something bad?
buckle -

"Who?"

"Brother Zhao? Breakfast."

It was Wei Changle's voice.

Tang Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Come in, Changle."

Wei Changle came in with breakfast, saw Tang Zhao sitting on the bed with staring eyes, looking hopeless, his heart tightened, and he closed the door behind his back.

Tang Zhao took the porridge in a daze, drank it down, and didn't know what he ate.

Wei Changle sighed silently, and said, "Brother Zhao, are you alright?"

"Forehead?"

Tang Zhao sat for a while, his IQ gradually returned, and said, "What? What's the matter?"

"Brother Zhao——" Wei Changle moved the only chair opposite him, "Last night, there was a whole night of chaos outside. In the middle of the night, all the teachers in the grape yard were called out, and even many students were called out. Master Guan Not now. Today's homework has been cancelled."

Tang Zhao said "Ah?" and said, "That's great. Last night was too chaotic, there were enemies, bugs, and big spiders. I was being chased around..."

He won't talk about it here, he hasn't made up a whole set of experiences that can be told outside, even if he does, he doesn't have to lie to Wei Changle.

In fact, there is really no need to lie, just cut off the second half of the experience.

But the prosecutor's side, you want to report safety, right?
And that magic weapon... where did it come from?

Tang Zhao suddenly remembered the magic weapon, it was not his property, it should be returned.It was so confusing before going to bed that he forgot where the sword was, so he hurriedly got up and opened the bed to look for it.

Wei Changle saw him in a hurry and was confused, and almost thought that Tang Zhao was looking for his lost brain again, and asked, "What are you looking for? Let me find it for you?"

Tang Zhao hurriedly said: "A sword, a dagger..."

Wei Changle helped him lift the sheet and found it under the sheet.

He couldn't help shaking his head and said: "Brother Zhao, if you stretch your legs while sleeping, you might escape this time because of your disability..." He picked up the sword as he spoke.

……

Tang Zhao put his fingers against his head and murmured, "Did I forget something?"

right!
The judge seemed to give him something yesterday, a centipede?
Good guy, let the bug sleep in the same bed with him all night!

He found the centipede from under the quilt. It was a foot long, and it didn't look like a centipede when viewed closely in the daytime. It looked like a bug with many legs.

This bug was big and disgusting, if it wasn't for all kinds of visual bombardment all night, he would have been thrown aside a long time ago, and now his threshold has been improved, and he can still see the bug body carefully.

There was a gash on Worm's back, and there were subtle fluctuations in the crack that disturbed his spirit.

The sword mark is a magic weapon.

There was also such a mark on the Longevity Locking Artifact that Xing Ji gave Tang Zhao back then, and it recovered after it was released.The traces on the worm's back are also very short, accounting for only one-third of the worm's back, and it is likely that it has been consumed.

Tang Zhao took out his glasses and looked at the bug.

"Artifact: Middle Grade"

Middle grade?

Is this still a good quality weapon?

"Yuanli: light

Technique: Unstiff (1/3)

Substrate: Inferior ferocious beast black gnat"

Is this a bug or a beast?It is far worse than the spider ancestor, no wonder it is inferior, so it can only be left in the soup pot.

This is not stiff...

He continued to stare at the word "buzhi", and sure enough, he stared at another comment.

"Not stiff, get rid of the out-of-control state, forcibly restore consciousness and mobility. Symbol:..."

A lot of the latter is to explain how to express this "art" with symbols, which is equivalent to heavenly scriptures for Tang Zhao.But he understood the opening sentence.The technique of not freezing is to relieve the abnormal state, as long as it is not dead, it will not be controlled.

No wonder Sun Sheng was able to hear Si Liyu's words after being knocked out by himself, and he was able to relieve himself after being acupointed by the judge.

"A centipede, dead but not stiff."

Having said that, a mere surgical tool obviously cannot guarantee "dead but not stiff", and it is already very good to be able to guarantee "not dead but not stiff".

This is a very practical tool, although it seems that there is only one chance left.

After figuring out this magical weapon, it seems that I have not forgotten it...

"Brother Zhao!"

???

!!!

Tang Zhao stared at Wei Changle who appeared suddenly, then glanced at the magic weapon that had just been placed on the bed, and asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Wei Changle said: "I should ask you? What's going on? You suddenly sat on the bed and talked to yourself, but you didn't answer me when I asked you. What's wrong with you? What's wrong with me?"

Thinking about the scene, Tang Zhao couldn't help being embarrassed for a while, feeling hairy all over, and said, "Wait a minute...it's true that the magic weapon is effective, but the magic weapon should have failed!"

……

Neither Guan Lei nor the teacher from the Grapeyard came back that day.Tang Zhao exercised for a day by himself.I don't know if it's because of his psychology, but I always feel that the atmosphere in the villa has changed, and the already ubiquitous sense of depression has become more serious.

Especially those grey-clothed disciples in the grape yard looked even more ugly, as if they had been bankrupt overnight, and everyone wanted to fight.

Several people hurried past him, and Tang Zhao vaguely heard words such as "It's only a few days", "Advance assessment", "The loss is too great".

It seems that the loss of Black Spider Villa is not small this time, and the backup children in these vineyards have to make up for it in advance.

In the evening, Tang Zhao went to the playground with a half-used magic weapon as usual, wanting to see if Si Liyu would come.

Si Liyu didn't come, but a female military officer from the District Prosecutor's Department came, she was about twenty-five or six years old, wearing similar clothes to Si Liyu, and said: "Wei Si Feng can't come today, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to come in the future."

Tang Zhao was stunned for a moment, then realized that "Feng Wei" was probably Si Liyu's official position, and after careful identification, he vaguely remembered the woman's appearance. She was the district inspector military officer who pretended to be a maid last night and then surrounded and hunted down giant spiders. : "Are you Mai Qianhu? Teacher Si's class is over? Haven't said goodbye to him yet."

Hearing that Tang Zhao knew her, the female military officer smiled, and suddenly became more cordial, and said, "It's me. I'm Mai Yitan. Your course might have been a day or two away, but Xiao Si was injured and needed more time." Rehabilitate for a few days, and it’s almost the critical time when you recover, let alone come here. He also said that you have almost learned, and told you to practice hard and not slack off.”

Tang Zhao was shocked and said, "Injured? How did he get hurt? Didn't I see that he won last night?" He saw half leave last night, but when he left, the overall situation was clearly settled, why did he get injured again in the blink of an eye?

Mai Qianhu wrote lightly: "Xiaosi asked you to watch the battle? You didn't watch the whole thing. In the end, the phantom used a unique trick and made the beast explode. That scene——I didn't want to see it, and I didn't want to see it." recall."

Tang Zhao asked anxiously, "Is the injury serious? Is there anything I can do to help?"

Mai Qianhu said: "It's not a serious injury, even if there is a serious injury, there is still a guard, so where can I use you?" After finishing speaking, he took out three wooden swords and handed them to him, and said with a smile, "Tang Zhao, let me see the guard The envoy and Si Fengwei both like you very much, I think your talent and character are not bad. In the past half month, you have to work hard and don't begrudge your resources. After passing this test, good days are yet to come."

Tang Zhao took it, thinking of something, and said: "Although I don't know if it's still useful, the abnormality of the landlord is hidden in the hair. There is a white hair that is wrong. It may be a magic weapon or a magic weapon. I didn't look carefully."

Mai Qianhu pondered: "So that's how it is. Let's check and check." He explained, "Although the person who was attacked did not catch up with the spider beast, his fate was not good. Master Tao was captured by the Iron Scorpion Castle. He intercepted it and hid it in the villa."

So he was captured by you instead?
Mai Qianhu said: "It seems that there is indeed a swordsman behind him. This is not good, the task will be much more difficult."

Tang Zhao sent the magic weapon in the box again, and said, "Yesterday, this thing suddenly failed and left me halfway, but it took a lot of effort to escape."

Mai Qianhu laughed and said: "That's really a coincidence. This is a magic weapon. It is not like a magical weapon that anyone can use casually. It needs to be activated by the corresponding swordsmanship, otherwise it will fail after a while. We didn't expect you to hold it like this." How long?"

Tang Zhao confirmed: "Is it necessary to control swordsmanship? If you don't know how to control swordsmanship, it is absolutely impossible to exert that effect?"

Mai Qianhu said: "It's not absolutely impossible. If you are particularly suitable for the swordsmanship here, you can directly exert the effect. Do you have this ability?"

Tang Zhao shook his head, and Mai Qianhu said: "It would be great if you have one. It means you have found the direction of the sword. Even if this sword already has an owner, you can choose a sword with the same direction in the future, which is much better than looking for a needle in a haystack and waiting for favor. We must know that there are many talented people in the District Inspection Department, and whoever finds his own direction first will have the upper hand and have a bright future."

Tang Zhao asked again: "Is everyone's direction born? It's only related to talent? How to test it?"

Mai Qianhu said: "Well, it's mainly talent, and it's also related to personality, desire and even the practice of sword control. The test is very complicated. You will have a set of tests when you enter the inspection district, but it may not be accurate. Our test methods are constantly improving. Now it is second to none, but the field of the sword is unfathomable and cannot be perfect. The wider and more common the direction is, the easier it is to detect, but the competition will be more intense. It is true that some partial directions are difficult to match, but once you have the opportunity, you can No one but me." She touched her waist, where there was also a sword.

Suddenly, Tang Zhao went back to Wei Changle, told the situation one by one, and asked, "Do you want to tell the District Prosecutor about your talent?"

Wei Changle hesitated.

Tang Zhao continued to analyze: "If you say so, maybe the prosecutor will directly hire you. I think it has a brighter future than the Black Spider Villa. But there are also dangers. There is a catastrophe in front of you, and there happens to be a magic weapon here. Maybe it will catch you up."

Wei Changle groaned again and again, raised his head and said, "Brother Zhao, please take me to meet the procuratorial officers. I don't want to stay in the Black Spider Villa."

Tang Zhao understood clearly, people don't want to associate with insects, is there anything wrong with that?

He agreed without hesitation, and said, "I'll take you to see Teacher Si tomorrow."

When Tang Zhao left, Wei Changle relaxed and spread out on the bed. The relief after the surprise made him a little dazed, and said softly: "Disappear? No one sees me, no one remembers me, no one needs me...that's me want."

After confirming his friend's future, Tang Zhao rushed back to the house excitedly, then was so stunned that he almost dropped the surgical instruments he was holding on the ground.

Holding the surgical weapon tightly, Tang Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "Why is it you again?"
