in the edge

Chapter 335 The power of belief

Shan Bing originally thought that this master was just talking.

After all, sword moves of this level are considered a unique skill anywhere. You must know that these days, if an apprentice learns a craft from a master, he has to work hard for three years for nothing. It is just an ordinary folk craft. , can only earn a job for himself - and this Sun-falling Sword move is a powerful move that can kill lives. It is an understatement to say that it can destroy an army with one move.

Would such a move really be taught casually?

It really does.

Such a terrifying move was actually taught casually by the master in front of him who called himself Huang Tian.

"Use the sword as a guide, and move the sword to control the energy."

He cut a piece of bluestone and sat down, and the expert began to explain.

"Use people to guide you, connect the yin and yang of heaven and earth, people and swords are combined, Qi and mind are combined, and the sword becomes like an arm."

"..."

Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan were dumbfounded.

When they didn't listen to this guidance, the two of them could still get a glimpse of the sword's technique. For example, the moment the sword energy hit the ground, it was like using the landing point of the sword as the center of the circle to conduct high-frequency attacks on the nearby area. Cutting - but obviously, judging from the expert's explanation, that's not the case at all.

So the question is, what is this expert’s explanation?

I don’t understand, I don’t understand.

They had no idea what this was saying.

"Don't you have the root of wisdom...that's fine."

Seeing that both Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan were staring at each other, the master could only sigh.

"I'll demonstrate it again, please watch."

Saying this, the master raised his hand and pointed.

"Excalibur falls into the sun!"

The ancient long sword flew up again, and then fell to the ground, just like before, it landed quietly, but the remains of the monsters piled aside were cut into even finer pieces.

Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan were shocked again.

If they just had a rough look just now, then when they saw this move for the second time, they realized more things that they had not noticed just now - there is no doubt that this is the most brilliant move they have ever seen. It is not an exaggeration to say that this move is the strongest sword move in this world.

Then, even if you can’t learn it, you can understand it.

After all, this thing is really powerful. As we all know, whether it is powerful moves or powerful weapons, these are only owned by the strong. It is impossible for ordinary people to learn these things, and it is impossible to hold them - of course. If ordinary people could become strong men, that would be another matter. But do the two of them look like they can become strong men?

Indeed, in the eyes of civilians who have little military power, or in the eyes of those warriors who have just entered the body with evil spirits, they who can be listed on the Hundred Arms List are unattainable existences, but those who are on the Hundred Arms List are unattainable. In fact, they have always known that they are still far behind those who are ranked higher.

Not to mention, facing the current combat power that is beyond the scope of judgment.

Compared with the master in front of them, they have become ordinary people with little military power.

But in general, it was worth asking for advice this time. Although they failed to learn this master's peerless sword skills, after observing the sword skills twice in succession, they also had a better understanding of their own tactics. More ideas, as the saying goes, stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade, and inspiration is also a real gain.

But besides this, they still have one last, small question.

"That...Your Majesty Huangtian."

After hesitating for a moment, Shan Bing finally asked the doubt in his heart.

"Do I have to shout the name of this move?"

"Ok?"

The master holding the sword frowned slightly.

With just a frown, Shan Bing's back began to sweat. Obviously, this was not a good question for the master in front of him - so he stepped back for the time being, not daring to continue asking. He was afraid that this master would kill him with a sword.

But after a while, Shan Bing finally couldn't hold it in any longer.

There was no other reason. The master directly raised his sword to cut off the monster's body. The ancient sword rose and fell. Every time it fell, the master shouted "Excalibur falls to the sun" - yes, this sword move is indeed very powerful. , but the problem is, you have to shout like this before drawing the sword...

What is this picture for?

"You don't know at all?"

After Shan Bing bravely expressed his doubts, the master's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Then when you usually fight, don't you have any moves?"

"...Move?"

Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan looked at each other.

It should be, right?

Maybe those wild boys really don't pay attention to their moves, but the two of them are not wild boys. Although Shan Bing has committed crimes and been in prison, he is also a serious soldier, and Jiang Wenyuan, who has a background as a head catcher, has experienced professional Training, whether it is close-quarters grappling, iron ruler swords, or even long weapons such as spears, spears, and clubs.

But after practicing for a long time, they would not call out the names of any moves during the fight.

No matter how you think about it, that kind of fighting style is too stupid. You have to say a few words before taking action, for fear that the opponent doesn't know what you are going to do. If you really have such a desire to perform, you might as well just sing a big show and fight with this person. In this kind of thing, the sword has no eyes, and the head falls to the ground in the flash of lightning. How could anyone be stupid enough to announce the name of the dish before wielding the sword?

"So you...do you all think this way?"

The master who called himself Huang Tian frowned even more tightly.

"No wonder, no wonder you can't see the mystery of this sword..."

"Ok?"

This time, it was Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan's turn to frown.

Is there any other way to say co-authorship?

"Use the sword to control the energy, and use people to control the mind."

The master who called himself Huang Tian thought for a moment and then spoke.

"You all know the most basic spirit, right?"

"I know this."

Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan nodded repeatedly.

Although it is no longer known when this statement was mentioned, there is no doubt that it is basic common sense - for example, if a person is in good condition, he will be said to be very energetic, even if he is not a doctor He martial artist also knows this word.

For doctors and warriors, these three words must be read separately.

Jing, that is, energy, is a rather broad concept, but it is mostly used to summarize the state of the body itself. When a person is said to be energetic, it actually means that the person is in excellent condition and not very tired. This is related to whether the body is strong or not. It doesn't matter, thin people can also be energetic and busy all day long, and strong people can also be exhausted and fall asleep. This is the so-called lack of energy.

As for qi, each has its own explanation. Doctors will describe the feeling of blockage in the body as blocked qi pulses, while warriors will use qi to describe the feeling of exerting force. Many scholars People would think that Qi fills the entire world, but evil spirit masters like Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan directly understand it as evil energy.

As for God...

“God is the sum total of everything.”

The master who called himself Huang Tian opened his mouth to explain.

"God is the embodiment of will and the commander of everything. He uses people to control the will, which is the spirit, and uses the sword to control the energy. The sword and the energy combine... But after all this, God must control everything, and this will be A complete whole.”

"That is to say..."

Having said this, how could Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan not understand what this master was saying. Obviously, this master’s understanding of “Yong Shen” is to shout out the name of the move loudly.

"With a name, you have charm, and with charm, you have a complete move."

Seeing that Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan understood somewhat, the master nodded.

"So, do you understand?"

"..."

Actually I still don’t understand.

Although they could understand what the master in front of them was trying to explain to them, they couldn't accept this set of logic - if they had to shout in front of someone who was being slashed, even the weakest evil spirit could enter their bodies. He wouldn't have cerebral palsy to this extent.

Yes, under their martial arts system, this kind of behavior is no different from cerebral palsy. If you have to shout the names of moves while fighting, it is equivalent to giving up the opportunity to take action.

This is perhaps the biggest difference between them.

"You... don't mind."

The master shook his head, then raised his hand to make a move.

The pieces of meat that had been roasted floated over from a distance.

"Let's eat something first. It's all good meat."

"...?"

Looking at the pieces of meat in front of them that exuded the aroma of burnt oil, Shan Bing and Jiang Wenyuan looked at each other, but neither of them dared to move their mouths.

Just because they all knew that this was clearly cut from the bodies of those monsters just now.

Fortunately, they thought that those monsters were hunted because some masters wanted to improve their martial arts and find enough opponents. But now it seems...it was just the master in front of them who came out to hunt to earn some meat.

But therein lies the problem.

"It's...not good to eat this, isn't it?"

Jiang Wenyuan forced a smile.

"After all, they are all monsters..."

"What happened to the monsters? They are what they eat."

As he said this, the master picked up a large piece of thick meat with the tip of his sword.

"Look at how this piece of heart meat can be killed by ordinary cattle and sheep? It takes these monsters to have such a big heart..."

"..."

Jiang Wenyuan's expression became more subtle.

Yes, the piece of heart meat in front of him was very big, almost the same as a large piece of tenderloin, but what he knew better was that the heart was not that big originally - after all, all the evil monsters were those The lunatics who have entered their bodies with evil spirits have changed, but the master in front of him is killing monsters to eat, that is, eating...

"I have learned a lesson today. We two brothers still have important matters to attend to. See you another day."

Saying this, Jiang Wenyuan held up his hand and pulled Shan Bing away on the spot.

It was impossible not to leave. If he continued to read, he might vomit on the spot.

As a head catcher, it was not that he had never seen the tragedy of cannibalism. Even during the days when he was pretending to be a refugee, he also saw some inhumane things - although in theory, he should be used to it. Yes, but some things are still physically uncomfortable after all.

Shan Bing on the side understood it, so he didn't say much. However, compared to Jiang Wenyuan, who had a bigger reaction, Shan Bing was fine - after all, he was originally a soldier stationed in the south, and those in the south were Barbarians have done more serious things than this. It is common for human bones to be used as utensils. Some earth kings even drink from their hollowed-out heads.

"Anyway, it's normal for the master to have some quirks...at least he only eats monsters, right?"

With a sigh, Shan Bing patted Jiang Wenyuan on the back.

"Don't think too much, we can just find the experts ourselves."

"Well, I'm fine."

Jiang Wenyuan nodded. He also understood the meaning of Shan Bing's words. On the one hand, it was to reassure him, and on the other hand, it was to remind him that there was no need to bear grudges against someone he couldn't afford to offend because of such a trivial matter. Master.

After all, those monsters were originally prairie cavalry who wanted to kill them. For such a thing, it was really unnecessary to set up a completely unbeatable enemy for themselves for no reason.

"But I do know why you became a head catcher. Your temperament is only suitable for being a head catcher."

Seeing that Jiang Wenyuan was fine, Shan Bing also laughed.

"Okay, no matter how big a deal it is, just pretend that you haven't met that master today... What should I say next? Where can I find him?"

"What's next..."

Jiang Wenyuan started to have a toothache.

Obviously, the side method didn't work. Originally, he thought that as long as he gathered enough monsters, he could wait until Grand Master Du came out, but who would have thought that this method attracted other masters—— Looking at it this way, there seems to be no need for them to continue pretending to be refugees. After all, a group that gathers in large numbers and has little combat effectiveness is almost a food bank for the monsters.

"It's better to go to the nearby city to have a look."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Wenyuan finally chose the most normal method.

Zhoucheng, which is the transportation hub and cargo distribution center in this area of ​​​​states and counties, is also the place with the most information because of the complicated flow of people. Although this is also an act of finding a needle in a haystack, it is always better to collect intelligence in places with dense crowds. There is nothing wrong with that.

"Just treat it as a vacation at public expense."

With a sigh, Jiang Wenyuan finally, like his partner next to him, chose to show off for the time being.

It's really time to take a break, at least to replenish their travel supplies. After all, they have been running around since they were kicked out of Songzhou. Now that they have run out of food and water, it is really time to take a break. Take a break.

What the two of them didn't expect was that when they arrived at Dengzhou City, the soldiers guarding the city surrounded them.

"What a good boy! You actually dared to lie to us last time and said you were some kind of knight errant!"

The leading soldier directly raised his gun and forced him over.

"There is news from Jiankang City. You two are actually the lackeys of the eunuch!"

　Updates are coming, today is also a day for health.

　　Another: Thank you for your recommendation votes and monthly tickets, thank you for your encouragement and support.
