21: Throwing knives

A knife is a weapon. Not only is it a weapon, but it is also ranked first among the eighteen weapons.

But in some respects, the sword is not as good as the sword. Because it does not have the elegant, mysterious and romantic temperament of the sword, nor does it have the dignity of the sword.

The sword, sometimes, is an ornate decoration. Sometimes, it's a symbol of status and status.

The knife is not. If the sword is an elegant nobleman, then the sword is a simple commoner.

The association of the sword is often in the court, in the mountains, and among the white clouds. It's usually very ethereal, as if it doesn't eat the fireworks of the world at all.

Knives are different. Everything about knives is actually closely related to the lives of ordinary people.

As soon as a baby is born, the umbilical cord needs to be cut with scissors. When I grow up, whether it is cutting vegetables, cutting farmers, cutting cloth, cutting hair, trimming beards, cutting nails, dividing meat, cutting fish, cutting tobacco...... None of these things can be done without a knife. Therefore, human life cannot be without a knife at all, just as human life cannot be without air and water.

But it is very strange that once many people think of knives, what they think of is often not these things that are closely related to their lives, but some words such as "cruel, tragic, fierce, barbaric, fierce" and so on.

When it comes to knives, there are many types of them. Single knife, double knife, horizontal knife, scimitar, simple knife, ring knife, serrated knife, mountain chopping knife, ghost head knife, goose steel knife, five winds Chaoyang knife, fish scale purple gold knife......

But there is no doubt that throwing knives are also a type of knife. Although there are few sects in the martial arts, there are few who specialize in flying knives. Normally, people in the martial arts just regard the flying knife as an auxiliary hidden weapon. But even so, no one can refute the ironclad fact that "throwing knives are also knives".

But many years ago, in an era full of violence, evil, and turmoil, a flying knife suddenly appeared in the rivers and lakes.

Its shape and style are actually very ordinary, and there is nothing special about it. But its power and speed are absolutely indescribable.

Many years ago, there was another strange person in the rivers and lakes, named Bai Xiaosheng. Does he really know more than anyone else in the world? No one can say for sure. But he does know a lot, and what he says, and the people he evaluates, are very fair.

Therefore, when Bai Xiaosheng arranged the seats for the masters of the world at that time and compiled a volume of "Weapon Spectrum", no one in the world could disagree with Bai Xiaosheng's ranking and comments on the masters on the spectrum.

This sentence is exactly Bai Xiaosheng's evaluation of the flying knife. Even though the flying knife was only ranked third on the "Weapon Spectrum", even the two masters who were ranked above the flying knife could not break Bai Xiaosheng's eight-character comment.

The owner of the flying knife is none other than Xiao Le Tanhua and Le Shengge.

Le Tanhua has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes all his life, believing that justice must defeat evil, and that justice must always be in the world. So if he encounters injustice, then he will definitely not hesitate to stand up as soon as possible.

It is precisely because of this that although the name of Xiaole Tanhua is called "Shengge". But what usually accompanies him is not a happy song, but just trouble.

But Xiao Le Tanhua himself usually doesn't feel that this is a trouble. He has always been willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of others, and often would rather shed his own blood than have others shed tears for him. Therefore, at that time, there was no one in the world who did not trust Xiaole Tanhua's promise, not even his enemies!

In the minds of many people in the rivers and lakes, the Tanhua Flying Knife is no longer just a knife, but almost a kind of demon incarnation! It has almost become the same meaning as "death".

However, later generations have also counted that the enemies who were defeated under Xiao Letanhua's flying knife were as many as 258 people. But seventy-three of them did not die even though they were defeated. The ones who really died were those who really deserved to die.

It's true, even though Xiaole Tanhua has had many enemies in her life. But he never missed a single one. Therefore, in the future, Xiaole Tanhua's flying knife has become the embodiment of a magical power. Or even a sacred symbol.

In people's minds, this flying knife is no longer just a weapon. It is a symbol of justice and dignity. And this kind of power, of course, is the greatest and the most strong, and invincible. In the same way, people with such power are the best in the world, and no one can match. With admiration and awe, everyone called Xiaole Tanhua "Sword Saint".

The appearance of the Sword Saint has gradually calmed down the violence, evil, and turmoil in the rivers and lakes. When everything was over, the Sword Saint disappeared with it, like a huge wave disappearing into a sea of peace and tranquility.

But calm is always short-lived. In this chaotic world, strife and turmoil are the eternal themes. But even if the Sword Saint has disappeared, the kind of power he represents, the kind of spirit he represents, can last forever. As long as this spirit exists, it will continue to give people endless confidence and hope.

The King of Shenzhou, the Sword Saint, and the Lonely Marquis. These three people have all obtained the glass sword, and they have all rewritten the fate of the world with their own strength. In the dream void world, they are also the three most special beings.

The king of Shenzhou, he has no desire in his heart, and he enters the Tao with this. He crisscrossed the rivers and lakes, just to fulfill his destiny. After the end of the destiny, he no longer cherished everything in the world, and walked away in style, leaving only a legend. Therefore, the king of Shenzhou is like an immortal god who is high in the sky and does not eat the fireworks of the world. Even everything he has done is worthy of respect. But there is a little less smell of red dust. Therefore, the world often looks at the king of Shenzhou like the gods and Buddhas in the sky. Respectable, but not amiable.

If the king of Shenzhou is a fairy god, then there is no doubt that the lonely Hou is the demon in hell! Moreover, he is the demon of the devil.

He was lustful and passionate, and he was once ambitious, trying to create an unprecedented ambition for hegemony. For this reason, he has done a lot of cruel things and hurt a lot of people who shouldn't be hurt. But Lonely Hou has never regretted this, let alone guilt.

It's just that when Lonely Hou finds that everything he has done, it is impossible to succeed after all. And in this world, after there are other things that are more worth pursuing, he also resolutely let go of everything and drifted away. From beginning to end, he was just alone, accompanied by loneliness. Don't say that people in the world, even if they are also demons of hell, will only feel that Lonely Hou is so terrible, terrifying, terrifying, terrifying, terrifying.

Only the Sword Saint is different. He is not a fairy or a devil, but a real, equally flesh-and-blood man with laughter and troubles. From beginning to end, he has never left the red dust, never left this world. Even though his person is gone, his spirit is still there. Because his flying knife was forged in this red dust, in this countless joys and sorrows.

If you have to sum up the person of the Sword Saint in one sentence, then "knowing that it cannot be done" is the most appropriate. Even if you have to sacrifice your life for this, you will not hesitate to do so. It's just that what he really believes most is not the flying knife in his palm, but a kind of "benevolent invincible" love heart. It is precisely because he has such a great realm that he can truly send out that earth-shattering flying knife.

Among the three former glazed treasure knife masters, Cheng Li admired the most was the sword saint. It also resonates with the state of mind and spirit of the sword saint the most.

Therefore, Cheng Li did not imitate the flying knife of the Sword Saint, he once again restored the flying knife that was once invincible in the world, must be killed, and was not a false occurrence according to his own understanding.

In fact, the true essence of the Dao Saint Flying Knife does not lie in the technique or internal force, but in the spirit. As long as you have the spirit of being willing to burn yourself for the sake of the people of the world, you will be a real sword saint flying knife.

This is not a pragmatic, false, generalization. On the contrary, the spirit harnesses the matter, and the mind controls the weapon. Make the flying knife indestructible with confidence, this is the biggest mystery of why the sword saint flying knife is invincible in the world.

Of course, there is not only one kind of spiritual power. As long as you can exert your spirit to the extreme, then even if its nature is diametrically opposed to the "benevolence" of the Sword Saint, you can also practice an invincible and killing flying knife. However, that kind of flying knife will never be the flying knife of the Sword Saint, and it is impossible to replace the Sword Saint and become the hope in people's minds.

Cheng Li's flying knife is the flying knife of the Sword Saint. Or more strictly speaking, on a spiritual level, Cheng Li is the true heir to the mantle of the Sword Saint.

Still, of course, there are differences. Just as Tongle Shengge is a unique and unprecedented little music exploration flower throughout the ages. Cheng Li will only be Cheng Li himself, not the second Sword Saint.

In terms of the greatness and sublimeness of personality charm, Cheng Li may not be as good as the Sword Saint. However, if the spiritual power is strong, then even if three more Sword Saints are added, and all of them are combined, they may not be able to compare to Cheng Li.

What's more, the flying knife of the Sword Saint is just a weapon created by a random blacksmith shop and a random master in two hours. It's not broken copper and iron, but in any case, it has nothing to do with words like divine weapons and sharp weapons.

Cheng Li didn't need to find any blacksmith shop at all. He took advantage of being a robber and directly launched the "Jizo Tribulation", condensing dark matter, as if forming a sharp and incomparable black flying knife.

The Dark Matter Throwing Knife is lighter, faster, and sharper than the Flying Knife used by the Sword Saint back then. And inexhaustible. It will never be like the Sword Saint back then, who faced the enemy several times, and even because the flying knives were exhausted, they were all defeated.

Hatred, without a doubt, is also an incomparably powerful force. If you can really brew this feeling to the extreme, and use it as a driving force, then it will definitely burst out with a huge power no less than the Tanhua Flying Knife. However, such an extreme affection does not exist in Lei Wanshan.

For the revenge of the Perak Hall, so you want to kill Cheng Li? However, the Perak Hall is rampant in the south of the Yangtze River, and the bad things are done in the fish and meat country. It has already reached a point where people are angry. The Perak Hall is not extinguished, Jiangnan is uneasy, and the anger in the hearts of the people cannot be quelled. Therefore, the person who destroyed the Perak Hall was actually not Cheng Li, but the Perak Hall itself. This is called the iniquity of heaven, which is forgivable, but the iniquity of oneself is not to live.

But now, Lei Wanshan and they are going to come to Cheng Li for revenge for this evil thunderbolt hall. Even if there are thousands of reasons, in the deepest part of their hearts, Lei Wanshan himself must know that his reasons are not strong enough at all and are untenable.

In contrast, Cheng Li was open and had a clear conscience. If they are worthy of selfishness, how can Lei Wanshan and the others not be defeated? How can they not die?
