Chapter 0746: A Bad Joke
Chapter 0746 A Bad Joke
At this time, if there is a master who practices Dongying martial arts here, and when he sees Xie Zhengkong's posture, he will definitely think of one of Dongying's most famous sword techniques, the sword drawing technique, or the Juhe slash. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Indeed, Xie Zhengkong's current posture looks really easy to mistake people for Dongying's knife drawing technique.
With his knees slightly bent, his whole body is bowed, his left hand holds the scabbard, and his right hand holds the handle tightly, looking ready to attack. This does look exactly the same as Toei's sword drawing technique when it was brewing, so even if someone mistakenly thinks that this is Dongying's knife drawing technique, it is a normal thing.
Because on the surface, the two are too similar. But like Guixiang, it is only similar in appearance, in fact, what Xie Zhengkong is showing now cannot be regarded as a pure Dongying knife drawing technique. But he did draw a sword.
A hundred years ago, the Eastern World and the Western World were in a war, and Dongying actually participated in it, but the strength of Dongying was really nothing compared to the Eastern World and the Western World, so no one generally calculated it alone.
At that time, although Dongying was also in the country of the Eastern World, although it had also received the influence of the Eastern World since ancient times, no matter from which aspect, the Dongying Kingdom should belong to the combat power of the Eastern World. But when the East and West were in the war, Dongying exposed his wolf ambitions.
The warriors of Dongying also participated in the original war, but the forces chosen by the warriors of Dongying at the beginning were the Western world. Because of Dongying's group of people, although the country is not big and the population is not large, there are even fewer martial arts masters. But they don't know why, they just have the ambition to occupy Shenzhou.
For this purpose, they actually took refuge in the forces of the Western world in this war, which added some pressure to the Shenzhou side, but fortunately, the martial arts world of Shenzhou is really profound, and one after another peerless masters stood up, and finally beat the entire Western world back on the Dongying side.
That war really hurt the vitality of the Shenzhou Martial Arts Realm, but it is impossible to say that there is no gain at all. After all, on that kind of tragic battlefield, countless strong people will not have the slightest reservation, and they all say that war is the best way to promote the progress of civilization, which is indeed true.
Although the price to be paid will indeed be very heavy, but if you want to talk about the harvest, although it cannot catch up with the losses suffered, there are still some gains. First, after the war between the Eastern and Western worlds, countless strong men fell into it, and on the battlefield, countless strong men fought each other.
This also knocked out the arrogance of the Shenzhou martial arts world back then, before that, the Shenzhou martial arts world had always believed that Shenzhou was the largest piece of heaven and earth, and most of the strong people in this world were from Shenzhou. As for those realms outside of Shenzhou, aren't they just some barbarians?
Not to mention the distant western world, even the Dongying Kingdom, which is relatively close to Shenzhou, has never been looked down upon by the Shenzhou martial arts world, although Dongying also has some masters. But most of the Shenzhou warriors back then fought with the idea that Dongying was a small country with a small projectile, and what strong people could there be.
This kind of thinking made many warriors who fought against the strong people from the Dongying Kingdom suffer a big loss when they fought for the first time, and even many people didn't have time to change their stupid concepts, so they fell directly on the battlefield and died at the hands of the Dongying warriors they looked down on the most.
In fact, a hundred years ago, the Eastern world and the Western world were equally powerful, logically speaking, it should have been impossible to start such a large-scale war, but this war still broke out, and there is a reason for this.
At that time, the Shenzhou martial arts world looked down on the powerhouses from the Western dark world at all, thinking that this was just a group of foreign barbarians. I don't think this group of barbarians can achieve any climate at all, after all, in their cognition, barbarians are not yet civilized, and they just drink blood. How can there be any strong people in such a place? No one would believe that the Western Dark World and the Divine Martial Arts Realm were at the same level of power.
After all, Shenzhou has been influenced by Shenzhou for 3,000 years, and Confucianism pays attention to the education of saints. And the history of Shenzhou in ancient times is thousands of years, because the people in power need Confucianism to help them rule.
Therefore, Confucianism has always been the most prosperous doctrine in Shenzhou, and it is precisely because of this that all aspects of Shenzhou have been influenced by Confucianism, and the martial arts world is the same. After all, no matter how transcendent the martial arts world is, its establishment is fundamentally in Shenzhou, so it is naturally inevitably affected by this kind of thinking.
Therefore, such drawbacks came out, and in that era, there was originally only a small force of the Western Dark World, and they wanted to take root in the Eastern World, and by the way, they explored how powerful the Eastern World's dark world was. But the people in the Shenzhou martial arts world, although they know that these Western people have come.
But they don't look down on these people in the Western world at all, and they completely treat them as monkeys. If anyone really does that, then it can only be said that person is really boring to a certain level.
It's a pity that there is no force in the Divine Martial Arts Realm that is so boring. In their eyes, these shadows sent by Western forces can't get into their eyes at all, let alone take action against them, which is a complete matter of loss in their eyes.
Therefore, in the face of the provocation of the Western dark world forces, no one in the Shenzhou Martial Arts Realm responded at that time, in their eyes, this was like a crab, frantically waving its big pincers at people, provoking human beings. However, in the eyes of people, his behavior is actually just a joke, and he doesn't think about dealing with anything at all.
In the face of their provocations and the idea of testing their own strength, although they saw it in their eyes, they saw it as a joke, and the Western forces were nothing at all in their eyes at that time, and it was not even worth them to make any moves for this, and it felt like a waste of energy.
However, the people in the Shenzhou martial arts world thought so, so they directly ignored the provocations of the few Western forces who had just landed in the dark world of Shenzhou. However, the culture of the Shenzhou world is different from that of the Western world, and Shenzhou pays attention to subtlety, the golden mean, and humility and courtesy.
So, even if they are not afraid of those people in the Western world, but they simply look down on those guys. But those Westerners sent by the Western world to test the strength of the Eastern world do not think so, and the recognition of the Western world does not talk so much, let alone any subtlety, nor does it pay attention to anything such as humility.
In their concept, strong is strong, weak is weak, and there is no such thing as implication. They saw that the dark forces of the Eastern world did not respond to their provocations, and this gave them the wrong message.
In their understanding, the dark forces of the Eastern World are actually not strong, so after facing their strong forces, they don't dare to stand up and fight back, so this is how they behave. So, a big, big misunderstanding arose. It is precisely because of this misunderstanding that it has led to heavy losses in both the Eastern world and the Western world.
Since they received such information, the pioneers of the Western world naturally transmitted these messages back to the Western world, and then caused a sensation in the Western world. Countless forces are crazy about this, because a world with dark power is not strong, for them it is equivalent to a big cake, waiting for them to mouth.
However, people in the Western world still have brains, and of course they will not determine the strength or weakness of the Eastern world just because of a temptation, so they have sent several waves of vanguard troops to test again, and the final results are all similar. So, this drives those forces in the Western world crazy.
After many temptations, they all got roughly the same results, and these results all pointed to the fact that the forces of the Eastern World were very weak, at least they did not even dare to resist when facing them, which can show how weak these forces are.
However, they didn't know that it was not that the strength of the Eastern Martial Arts World was weak, but that the people of the Eastern Martial Arts World looked down on them from the bottom of their hearts, and there were no masters who could be on the stage, and they didn't even want to pay attention to their provocations.
It is precisely because of this that such a misunderstanding has arisen, and if the Eastern world had not been influenced by such a wrong atmosphere at the beginning, it would naturally not have reacted to the provocation of the vanguard of the Western world because of contempt, and as a result, people in the Western world have misunderstood.
And it is precisely because of this response from the Shenzhou side that the people in the Western world mistakenly believe that the power of the Shenzhou world is very weak, so they dare not respond to their provocations. After all, this is also a misunderstanding caused by the cultural and ideological differences between the two worlds. After all, there is no such thing in the Western world.
Those forces in the Western world, as long as someone dares to provoke them, it doesn't matter if they are too stupid and too unable to recognize the difference in strength between the two sides. Maybe they will also find this thing ridiculous, but he will not turn a blind eye to such provocations, in their style, in the face of such provocations, whether they look down on the other party or not, or even think that the other party is just a joke.
Even if so, so what? They will not let go of each other, so this is where the two sides are different, and in the face of different situations on both sides, the two sides will not deal with each other in the same way. It can even be said that it is the opposite of the opposite. People in the Western world substituted their own thinking into the Eastern world.
To think that the reason why they will do this, they will endure their own provocations is only because they are not strong enough, they do not have the strength to respond to such provocations. They couldn't think of anything, it wasn't that the strength of the Eastern World was not strong enough, it was just because the people in the Eastern World thought differently.
They didn't think it was a provocation at all, they just thought it was a few monkeys grinning at them, or throwing a few rocks at them, and that such a thing was nothing to them who were good manners? It's not a thing at all! It's just a joke.
This misunderstanding sounds like a very cold joke, but it really happened. This was something that neither side expected.
