sword sentient beings

Chapter 707 Huabiao

"Um……"

Hearing Tang Zhao say this, Che Lin frowned even more.

Trouble, trouble.

But there are traces to follow, and there is trouble that cannot be avoided.

"Although the Demon Sect may be able to kill two birds with one stone, it has to gain something from both the Heavenly Demon and the Wind Catching Sword, but now it seems that the one who has really put in the effort is the Wind Catching Sword."

"This line has been in ambush for a long time. They spread the name of Wind Catcher early, but they only pretended to be the helmsman. They even had to cover it up layer by layer. For example, they really hired a swordsman to pretend to be Wind Catcher, and then they didn't do anything Hesitantly sacrificed..."

What Tang Zhao was talking about was the swordsman he killed first, the one who shouted "Repent".

That swordsman is a serious swordsman, and he is also a swordsman whose sword intention is related to "wind". In other words, he can pretend to be the Wind Catcher Sword.

In fact, he also did this. Even when he was running for his life, he was walking against the wind, which shows that his sword intention should be like this.

Of course, he died happily in the end.

Although it was said that it was because of meeting Tang Zhao, even a swordsman could not escape from a sword attack, let alone a mere swordsman? But at the end, the moment when he shouted loudly to the Moon Goddess from the sky, it was more like a declaration before his death than calling out to the Moon Goddess for help.

At that moment, if he ignored his position, he could be regarded as resigned to death.

In fact, this is normal. Although the people of the Demon Sect are shameless and despicable, they are really not afraid of death.

Those who believe in the Moon God believe that they are on the right path and do not feel that they are pests to be eliminated at all. They also feel that they died for their beliefs, and they are quite generous in dying.

So the one who died so happily didn't seem strange to anyone at the time.

But if you think about it more deeply, what if he had expected the end, or was rushing to die?

Sacrifice him and use it as a cover-up to make the Wind Catching Sword completely disappear. Then the real Wind Catching Sword will be completely safe.

This is very effective, it just comes at a huge cost.

A decent swordsman would be willing to die in his stead.

Judging from his piety, he must be a true member of the Demon Cult, not a temporary scapegoat.

This at least shows that what the Wind Catcher Sword wants is indeed very big. It's so big that the swordsmen of this sect have to die for him, the devil has to make way for him, and it's even easier to trap a guardian envoy.

Can this level of conspiracy be low?

If it's less, it affects one state, if it's more, it may affect the security of the whole country.

But he died too simply and couldn't take the answer directly from his mouth. But that doesn't mean that everything will be fine once he dies. Knowing that the Demon Cult has this plot, if they can't get to the bottom of it, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles later. Even Tang Zhao can't say it. Anyway, it's not my Yunzhou's business. You Youzhou can find a way to go there on your own. He knows the meaning of death and coldness.

Of course, no one would accuse Tang Zhao of attacking too quickly and not leaving anyone alive: Can a swordsman of the same level expect to easily capture his opponent alive? If you have the chance to kill, naturally you should kill first and then explore slowly.

Now the most valuable clue left to follow is actually Che Lin.

Still for the same reason: With such a big conspiracy, why should Che Lin be dealt with first?

If it was because he was in the way of the devil's cave in front of him, then there was no need. Without Tang Zhao, Che Lin wouldn't be able to play any role here. A Bean Sprout Heavenly Demon combined with a Demon Cult Swordsman is enough to make him unable to eat and walk around, and the same goes for adding Chi Qianli. Spending a lot of time in advance to alert the enemy may not be as good as directly tricking someone into the devil's cave and killing them.

Chi Qianli, who was similar to him, seemed to have nothing wrong with him.

If it is for the purpose of catching the wind sword in a spacious and convenient place - then the purpose of catching the wind sword is huge. It must not be for the purpose of wandering around in Kuancheng, right? Do you want to develop in Youzhou? Or even rush out of Youzhou and go to the court?

What did it have to do with Che Lin at that time?

Although Tang Zhao once felt that Che Lin was a bit like the original Xing Ji, they were too different, not only in terms of temperament, but only in terms of status - they were both guardian envoys, but their status was very different. Xingji himself said that his characteristic is that he has a "big backer". He has always been a close confidant of Marquis Gao Yuan. It is not an exaggeration to call him a "close minister". Being a guard envoy is just a transition. If he is just one step away from being a swordsman in his twenties, he will be considered a criminal. Even if you make a mistake, you can keep it and continue to reuse it. As a younger generation of swordsmen, you have been recognized as a high-level person in the future.

Che Lin was far behind, and his position as a guard envoy was no more than adequate. Che Lin's ideal is to become a decent inspector with a lot of money and a lot of work before he retires. Then he has to run the relationship activities himself, and he might not be able to get there.

In other words, Che Lin was not even qualified to be an undercover introducer or stepping stone. The Wind Catching Sword passed by him without even giving him a look.

So, why on earth would a swordsman like Chasing Fengjian have to arrange for Che Lin to take charge of him despite his busy schedule?

It can only be Na Huabiao.

What is recorded on the Huabiao, or what may be recorded.

After all, Huabiao's commendation is subjective, but Huabiao's records are objective. Che Lin is quite honest and will only use objective achievements to subjectively praise himself. Therefore, Hua Biao may have recorded something that he himself did not know. That thing caused great trouble for him.

Che Lin sighed and said, "I had known this before, why did I do it in the first place?"

Now that he thinks about it carefully, he feels that a sword that records external facts objectively and truthfully is particularly dangerous.

Especially since he is an official. Sometimes, there are things that should be turned a blind eye to but not heard, but as soon as he stops there, people will not believe it. Who doesn’t have secrets? How can you, a humanoid camera, not be suspicious?

This is still recorded by the devil, and he can kill him. If "one of our own" targets him in the future, he will disappear without a trace.

But now it's too late to regret it. The sword elephant cannot be changed - it's not that it can't be changed. You can change it when you get to the sword fairy. Every Sword Immortal has a chance to recast the Sword Elephant, which is why every Sword Immortal's Sword Elephant is so tall, as if they have been rushing to become immortals and saints since they were born.

But he also needs to be able to become a swordsman. Besides, he is already a swordsman, so what does it matter whether he changes or not?

Che Lin said helplessly: "I am also confused at this time, and I may not have the patience to take a good look at it. So, I will release it and you can help me take a look? But please keep it a secret for me."

Chi Qianli said: "Brother, you have such a big heart. Can people see this?"

Fighting side by side, he thought Che Lin was the one who said it so clearly - although the Sword Elephant is not as secretive as the Sword Intent, it is not for outsiders to study. As long as the other party has bad intentions, you will fight in the future. Always a dwarf.

Che Lin did not hesitate to release the sword elephant and punch it on the ground like a wooden stake. If he had not already known that it was Huabiao, he would have thought it was the foundation stake laid somewhere. He said, "I can't care about this now. I'm afraid I've been deceived. It's a big deal. And I can only ask you two to help me. Apart from you, I can't trust anyone else."

Chi Qianli was startled, and then suddenly realized: Huabiao does sound extraordinary, but his sword elephant is mainly used to assist in training, and is not always used on the battlefield. It also looks so "atypical". If he hadn't known the inside story, he would have been able to How many people have discovered on their own how it works?

If you know the inside story, you are one of your own?

Only my own people knew about it, so why did the devil know about it again? Can it still be targeted?

This already explains the problem.

Chi Qianli shook his head and said, "It seems like we have to pass our brothers through a sieve when we go back."

Tang Zhao suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Maybe that's true!"

Che Linqi asked: "What did you think of?"

Tang Zhao said: "I have thought of something. But this cannot be nonsense. I will wait until I find the evidence."

This is half said, but the most important thing is concealed, which is very annoying. Even Chi Qianli couldn't help but curl his lips. If this was in a koan script, if he didn't speak today, he wouldn't be able to speak tomorrow. That is to say, relying on his strongest strength, he can swallow the key clues without encountering plot death.

Che Lin said: "Then just take a look - I'm even pointing at you and giving you some guidance."

Tang Zhao knew what he meant. Before coming to Huabiao, he first released a light curtain to cover up the situation inside to ensure that the information would not be leaked. Then he said: "You enlarge the sword elephant."

Che Lin waved his hand, and the gorgeous watch suddenly expanded, reaching as high as a towering tree in an instant. Although it is still made of wood, you can see the reliefs on the pillars. The top is shouting to the sky, the bottom is the Xumizuo, and the handwriting engraved on the pillars is clearly visible.

Each of the handwriting is the size of a kidney bean. It is obviously a neat Guange font, but it is vigorous and powerful, with dripping ink and a sharp edge.

This is the atmosphere of Wufenhuabiao.

Tang Zhao looked up and admired secretly, then started looking from below.

Che Lin said: "Commander Tang might as well look at it from above. My recent achievements are all recorded from above, and the previous ones are below."

Tang Zhao said: "I want to look at it from the beginning. I'd like to ask Chief Che and Chief Chi to take a look at it. I'll look up and you will look down. It will be more efficient if you look at both sides together."

Che Lin said: "That's okay, but you can see it from the middle." He pointed to one of the heights, "These are all my achievements after becoming a swordsman. Those below..."

He hesitated for a moment and said, "The following are my old stories from childhood to adulthood."

Chi Qianli was a little strange and said: "How young have you been?"

Che Lin was a little surprised and said: "Just born..."

Chi Qianli exclaimed: "Okay..."

The sword elephant will automatically record the swordsman's previous experiences, even from birth. In addition to being a bit fun, it also shows that the swordsman and the sword are deeply integrated with each other and are a perfect match. Although everyone can become a swordsman only if they are successfully matched with the sword, in fact, the relationship also has different levels. If we use the metaphor of interpersonal relationships, some swordsmen and swordsmen are just partners with similar interests, some are even good friends who eat and drink, and some are soul mates. .

Matched by nature, worked hard the day after tomorrow, and the future is boundless.

Tang Zhao was also very interested and said, "What happened to you when you were a child, if you praise it, can you also bless it?"

Che Lin was even more embarrassed and said: "As long as I am embarrassed...even if I didn't wet the bed when I was a child, it will be considered a credit. But I haven't reached that point yet, so I always start to commend after the swordsman. The merits of the swordsman before I don’t even care.”

Tang Zhao was scanning. He was originally a person who studied and did research. He read text very quickly. As his cultivation increased, he could read ten lines at a glance or a hundred lines at a glance. He had read a lot at this time. He suddenly said: "Actually, you should go back and come back. Look more."

Che Lin said "Huh?" and suddenly felt something bad.

Tang Zhao suddenly changed the topic and said: "When you said you asked me to give you guidance before, you naturally meant not only the immediate things, but also the future things, right? Do you still remember when I told you to think about the ancient meaning of Huabiao?"

"The Huabiao was originally made of wood, also known as the Huan Biao and the Huan Biao. It was originally a wooden sign for the monarch to ask the people to give advice and self-examination. At first, it was just a piece of wood three feet high. Anyone could write down the monarch's faults on it. The monarch would not If you think you are angry, but humbly accept advice and be diligent and encourage yourself, only then can you lead the country and the people on the right path. I don’t know when it started, the tree of slander is getting taller and more gorgeous, making it unattainable for the people, and there is no way to do it anymore To put it bluntly. Huabiao has long lost its original role and has become a Huabiao that is only used for commendations and awards today."

"Che Zhenshou, we do not regard ourselves as monarchs, but it is inevitable to make mistakes when doing things. A wise man will make a mistake after careful consideration, not to mention that you and I still have a little power in our hands, and we are only mortals. If you only record your own achievements and savor them over and over again, I can't help but feel more and more that my achievements are outstanding, and I don't know why. How can I still tell the wrong path? Why not restore the Huabiao to the Huanbiao, record both the merits and the faults, encourage yourself for your achievements, warn yourself for your mistakes, and then support yourself, wouldn't it be better? Live up to the vow you made back then?"
