Shura Dao: That is, the way of bloody killing, Shi Qingyi used the method of blood sacrifice blades, blood sacrifices are also divided into many kinds, and the most cruel and dangerous one is the method of raising knives in Sanqi, that is, at the beginning, at a fixed time to kill three baby boys at regular intervals, and seventy-seven forty-nine brides, after that, the demonic nature of the knife is initially awakened, and then in order to reach its extreme, the owner of the knife needs to continue to kill people and take blood, until the magic knife is completed or killed by the enemy.

The other is the method of blood nourishment, that is, to feed the weapon with its own essence and blood, so that the weapon gradually merges with itself, and finally it is like one, the human sword is one, of course, the skill of the sword is to the extreme, and it is not impossible to be close to the Tao. Of course, this method also has huge flaws, making the sword like a part of the body, so when the sword body is damaged or even destroyed, the owner of the sword will definitely be counterattacked, at least the skill will be damaged, and the worst will be a life.

Shi Qingyi used the third method, the method of sacrificing with animal blood, so during the period when Shi Qingyi practiced the knife, most of the beasts, insects, birds, and fish in the valley became the sacrifice of Shi Qingyi's knife practice. Although this method cannot dramatically increase the power of the knife like the first one, nor can it make the skill of the master of the blade reach the extreme like the second one, but it is the safest and most secure method, to put it bluntly, the reason why people live is to constantly feed themselves with other creatures, no matter how many animals are killed, Shi Qingyi is just a powerful butcher, not a murderer with a twisted mind, and the state of mind is naturally not shocked. Moreover, using animals to practice knives is also a kind of actual combat exercise, and it is not much worse than the second method from the actual situation.

Although the method of blood sacrifice can bring about an increase in the power of the weapon, it will strictly reduce the quality of the weapon, and ordinary materials simply cannot withstand the infinite infiltration of blood and gas, although Shi Qingyi's red silk is made of cold iron, but in terms of the solidity of the sword itself, it is far inferior to the sword made of the same cold iron.

***

Shi Qingyi went out of the mountain gate, did not see the figure of Gao Shuyun's family of three, there was only one person dressed as a servant waiting there at the agreed place, and when he saw Shi Qingyi approaching, the servant hurriedly asked: "But Miss Shi who is with Mrs. Changsun?" Shi Qingyi nodded, and then asked the man why he knew his surname and where the eldest grandson's family of three was. The servant who ordered him to say that his wife and Mrs. Gao were old acquaintances, and that he had been invited by his wife to enter the temple together, and specially ordered himself to wait for Shi Qingyi here. This is unexpectedly in Shi Qingyi, there is a way that the rich have distant relatives in the deep mountains, and the poor in the downtown no one asks, and now when Gao Shu Yuna and her daughter are in trouble, the relatives and friends of the past should be far away, but there will be a mysterious lady who came up without taboos, so that Shi Qingyi's heart couldn't help but have great curiosity about this lady.

Although Buddhism treats all living beings equally and preaches the equality of all living beings, even a large temple such as the Jingnian Zen Temple has to leave a special guest room specially prepared for dignitaries, Shi Qingyi followed the servant around and around, and finally came to an elegant and exquisite courtyard in front of the door, walked in, in the guest room, Gao Shuyun was talking to Dou, the eldest grandson Wuji was taking care of his sister, Rong'er had fallen asleep on the bed due to physical reasons, Shi Qingyi entered the room, and saw such a picture. Gao Shuyun saw Shi Qingyi arrive, immediately got up and took her hand, and introduced her to the Dou family, Shi Qingyi looked at the woman in front of him, and his first impression was that this was a gentle and generous aunt.

This woman is not an ordinary mortal, Shi Qingyi defined Dou in his heart, and when Shi Qingyi looked at Dou, Dou also looked at the girl in front of him in surprise, a very young girl, Dou guessed that this girl was no more than fifteen, an ordinary face, but always with a calm expression that did not match her age, and the most special thing on the girl's face was her extraordinary, bright eyes. Is it a girl who has experienced ups and downs to mature, and it doesn't feel like a ...... Like Shi Qingyi, Dou also gave Shi Qingyi a not low evaluation. Shi Qingyi's purpose in coming to the Jingnian Zen Monastery is to find a void to treat the eldest grandson Wurong, and now that the void has agreed, Shi Qingyi will not drag mud and water, and after taking a look with Dou's family, he told Gao Shuyun about it, Gao Shuyun was of course overjoyed, so he immediately said goodbye to Dou to find Kong, but Dou decided to go together, and then ordered his entourage to set up a stretcher, and to carry Rong'er directly to the location of the empty west courtyard. "It's been a long time since I've seen the Sky Master. How about we go together? In this way, Shi Qingyi, the eldest grandson's family, plus the Dou family and her servants, came to the West Courtyard together and met with Kong.

The eldest grandson Wurong's condition is actually much stricter than Shi Qingyi's estimate, although it can be cured, but it is not something that can be completed overnight, there is no way, the eldest grandson Wurong had to stay, living in the Zen courtyard, Dou is very enthusiastic, not only for his own yard to Rong'er, but also left two maids to take care of her, these practices, not only made Gao Shuyun and the eldest grandson Wuji secretly grateful, but also made Shi Qingyi can't help but have a little affection for her. As time went by, it was not early, and the number of pilgrims in the Jingnian Zen Monastery was becoming smaller and smaller, and the Dou family was also going back to the house.

At night, Shi Qingyi lay quietly on the bed board of the inn, but he couldn't sleep, not only because the battle in the Zen courtyard during the day consumed most of the true qi guide zhì's physical discomfort, but also because he was thinking about things all the time in his heart, the Duchess of Tang Guo Dou Shi, Shi Qingyi always appeared in front of his eyes The face of the noble lady in the daytime, for this woman, Shi Qingyi couldn't ignore her existence, although it was unusual to have this lady itself, but more importantly, it was her husband, and later an even more amazing son, Li Shimin.

Needless to say, even if he did not become the later Tang Gaozu, with Yue Shan's friendship with him, Shi Qingyi had to call him uncle respectfully, as for the three words Li Shimin, they represent a myth: Tang Taizong, Emperor of the Ages, and Tian Khan...... Whether it is the real history or the world of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin represents an insurmountable mountain. If he can be reborn as a man in this life, maybe he will rise in the troubled times like the Tang Shuanglong, and use heaven and earth as a chess game with this young god of war, what will be the situation at that time? Shi Qingyi didn't know, but it was definitely a completely different life from now, but unfortunately, this was just imagination after all. Shi Qingyi looked at his hands, slender skeleton, white and tender skin, and even his ten fingers were as crystal clear as jade. With a wry smile, Shi Qingyi clasped his hands on his shoulders and closed his eyes. Why bother, what is the use of missing the most precious emotion, that is, having the country.

Different from the quiet and dim environment where Shi Qingyi of Yuelai Inn is located, the Tang Guogong Mansion is brightly lit at this time, plus chickens and dogs jumping. Li Shimin took his third brother Xuanba to hunt for a day, and he didn't know how to go back until it was dark, plus the place where they hunted and Luoyang City had a long way to go, so it wasn't until it got dark for a long time that our second son Li rushed back home in a hurry in the anxious waiting center of the family, Dou was angry and hateful, Li Er has always been her favorite son, because this son is not only smart, both civil and military, but more importantly, Dou has always felt that he is similar to his uncle (Yu Wenyong), Therefore, the attitude towards Li Shimin far exceeds that of other children (which also makes other children jealous). But Dou didn't expect that as Li Shimin gradually grew up, this child's personality became more and more unrestrained, and every day he either fought with the children of other families in the city, or took a group of fellow party members to hunt and play in the mountains and forests, or soaked in the bright lights of the city, attracting a group of brothers to eat and drink...... It's not today, Li Shimin forgot the time again, and it wasn't until it was very late at night that he saw him rushing into the house with his third brother Xuanba. "Daddy, we're back!" Li Shimin shouted loudly, as if no one would know that they were going home without shouting, and then Li Shimin's footsteps stopped, and he realized that Li Yuan and Dou were looking at him in the courtyard, and suddenly his voice withered: "Ah, Daddy, why aren't you in the house, you see that the sky is dark, and the night is quite cold......" Seeing Li Shimin's current appearance, Dou's anger really doesn't hit one place, because of drilling in the forest for a day, Li Shimin's body is now not to mention how dirty, messy, and poor, Especially he also carried a lot of trophies such as pheasants and rabbits on his back, making all kinds of messy things with rabbit feathers and bird feathers on his body, which looked very funny, Dou looked angry and laughed, and then saw Li Xuanba behind Li Shimin, this time, Dou's face was really completely black, unlike his brother, Li Xuanba chased his life because he didn't see his prey, so his body was quite clean, but, but, but, although he could tell Dou Shi, What is this honest boy carrying: it turned out to be a huge wild boar with black hair and fangs that could no longer die, no, the long fangs were dragging on the ground and were dragged into the yard by Li Xuanba. While dragging it, Li Xuanba also complained, Second brother, this guy is so heavy, you won't come to help me .......

Dou was very angry, and the consequences were very severe. So, the two brothers shrugged their heads and were severely reprimanded by the Dou family, Li Xuanba is an honest child, seeing his mother angry, he has already obediently bowed his head and admitted his mistake, but Li Shimin still doesn't care. Dou Shi angrily pointed to the big wild boar on the ground: "How many times have I told you, the mountains and forests are dangerous, don't go into the depths, you just don't listen, look at this, you say, next time you meet a tiger or a bear or something, what will you do!" Li Shimin opened his mouth and continued: "Just bring the third brother." As soon as the words came out, Li Shimin knew that it was bad, and sure enough, seeing the raging flames rising in the eyes of the old lady, Li Shimin knew that the next thing must be an extraordinary storm, and it was over!! I can't just tie my hands, I want to distract her, what should I do... What to do... Pregnant... That's it!! After making up his mind, Li Shimin immediately took action, "Dad, is there something going on today, otherwise you and your mother would not be waiting for me and my third brother in the courtyard!" Li Shimin was sure in his heart that there must be something today, otherwise, even if his father and mother were angry, they would stay in the room and wait, instead of being in the yard. Sure enough, Li Yuan spoke, he looked at his second son with a smile, and said, "Well, that's true, Shimin, you might as well guess who your mother met today!" If you guess correctly, Daddy will be rewarded! Seeing that the folds on his father's face were squeezed into a ball because of laughter, Li Shimin's stomach was a little unbearable, Dad, it's not your fault that you grow old, it's your fault to make such a disgusting expression, Li Shimin endured it and answered one of the most commonly used answers: I don't know. Li Yuan laughed.

After such a hiatus, Dou also put aside the matter of reprimanding the brothers and remembered today's business. So, she looked at Li Shimin again and told her what happened in the Jingnian Monastery that day. "In other words, that eldest grandson is my unmarried wife?" Li Shimin said in surprise. Dou nodded in acknowledgement. This marriage was made by an elder of the eldest grandson's family and the Dou family, and now many years have passed, and the second child of his family has reached the age of talking about marriage, so when Gao Shuyun took the children and the two met the Dou family, the Dou family naturally thought of this marriage, and today he is waiting for the second son to come back, just to say it to him.

Dou looked at Li Shimin with a smile: "You have also reached the age when you should start a family, don't let the girl wait too long, although the eldest grandson Sheng has died, and the girl is also in trouble, but our Li family is not the kind of family that tends to be inflammatory, if you marry someone, everyone will say that you are ......good" Dou Shiman thought that the second son would agree without hesitation, but who knew that he threw down a sentence, turned around and left, "I will not marry her." Dou was furious, "You stop me." Grabbed Li Shimin, "The girl of the eldest grandson's family is not good, why don't you!" Make it clear to me!! Being shaken by Dou's very much, Li Shimin's voice was a little low, "Because I don't like him, what I like is my cousin Ji'er, and I want to marry my cousin as my wife, so I won't marry any woman except my cousin." Dou was stunned, Li Shimin took the opportunity to break free from her clamps, opened a distance from Dou Shi, and looked at Dou Shi without fear.

Seeing the strength of the two mothers not admitting defeat to each other, Li Yuan, who was on the side, finally couldn't sit still, he sighed, and said to Li Shimin: "There are so many women in the world, why do you have to be Princess Ji'er?" Li Shimin replied, "Because my son likes her and wants to be with her." Li Yuan kept sighing, and said Silly, Princess Ji'er is the most favored pearl of the saint's palm, although our family is also the right noble family of the times, but if you want to marry Her Royal Highness the princess, it is not a fool's dream, and it is difficult to ascend to the sky. So give up your unrealistic idea, even if you don't marry the girl of the eldest grandson's family, don't want to marry the princess, that's not what we are qualified to fight for, Li Shimin is not happy, saying Dad, what are you doing to retreat, everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as I keep working hard, I will definitely succeed, just like this, the father and son have been grinding their mouths for a long time because of this matter, Li Yuan's mouth is about to wear out, but he still can't convince Li Shimin of this tough egg, Li Shimin is admitting death and can't listen to anything.

Until the end, Li Yuan's head hurt, "Hey," Li Yuan looked at his stubborn son, "It's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow, you go back and clean up your body first," Li Yuan pointed to the paint suit that was still on Li Shimin's body. "Then take a shower and go to sleep!" And so ended the conversation. Li Shimin was also a little sleepy, so he didn't hesitate, pulled the third brother who had been a passer-by for a long time, and left, Li Shimin didn't notice that outside the side gate of the courtyard, there was a pair of eyes full of hatred that kept watching him.

Li Shimin and Li Xuanba left, and only Li Yuan and his wife were left in the courtyard, Li Yuan smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect Shimin to like Ji'er so much, and she didn't marry her, so it's troublesome." Dou Shi glanced at her husband fiercely: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, don't you see that Changsun Sheng is dead, and the eldest grandson's family is about to decline, so I dislike other girls' families, I sue you, there is no door." When there were only two people there, the Dou family finally faded from its gentle appearance and revealed its fierce side, Li Yuan could only lose his smile in front of such a wife: "Hey, I'm also thinking about the people, think about it, with the conditions of the people, except for Princess Jil, which girl is not worthy of the people, although the eldest grandson Wurong is also a good child, but now he has been kicked out of the house, and there is really not much help for the people in the future!" Dou sneered at Li Yuan: "Then when you first made up your mind, why didn't you object, it seems that you were quite happy at that time, didn't you?" "Wasn't Changsun Sheng still there at that time?" Li Yuan defended himself, "Who knew that he would just leave like this, and his son was not angry, and he actually did the funeral thing of driving away his little mother and younger brothers and sisters, and the decline of this eldest grandson family is certain." It's just that I pity the orphans and widows. Speaking of Changsun Sheng, Li Yuan's tone also became lonely: "Among the generals of the Great Sui, the only one who can surpass me in archery is Changsun Sheng!" It's a pity that he was a hero, but no half of his children could inherit his prestige, and when he was gone, no one would be able to use the overlord bow again. "Heroes cherish heroes, especially Li Yuan and Changsun Sheng, who are also outstanding in archery, Changsun Sheng kills two birds with one stone and shocks the various tribes of the grassland, but Li Yuan also relies on the best archery, shoots the peacock screen, and gets a good wife, these things are warmly spread by people, but unfortunately one has become the pillar of the country, and the other is just living a very happy life, and the evaluation is naturally mixed, but some things are not until the end, how can they not get an answer, such as now, Li Yuan is still the enviable Tang Guogong, the husband and wife are harmonious, and the eldest grandson Sheng is dead, and the family is in a mess, the world is impermanent, it is really difficult to explain clearly. Both Li Yuan and the Dou family felt very sorry for the decline of the eldest grandson's family.

"Sister Shuyun should have informed the old lady of the news that she came back with her children." Dou said to Li Yuan, "Tomorrow I will go to see the old woman and tell her about this casually." In fact, in addition to her temper, the old lady is very similar to her father Dugu Xin, as the so-called father must have his daughter, since the death of Queen Dugu (Yang Jian's wife) The old lady has become the first lady of the Dugu and Li Tang families, even if it is the same generation as her and married into the Dugu family, when she sees the old lady, she has to respectfully call her sister, and the old lady's prestige can be seen from this. And Li Shimin is her beloved turtle grandson, for such a big event as marrying a wife, the old lady will participate in it no matter what, since Shimin himself strongly opposes this marriage, it is better to ask the old lady to make a decision, for this kind and strict grandmother, Li Shimin has been respectful and afraid since he was a child. The couple had made up their minds, and decided to go to bed at once, and go to the old lady early tomorrow morning to say goodbye.
