6. Sit and talk about the "Tao" [42/100]
At midnight, Xiao Si was silent in the courtyard of Nantong.
The two of them had already fallen asleep, and if they calculated the time, Xiao Si should wake up from a brief coma.
I don't know if the little couple is in the mood to come tonight, trying to make a person or something.
It's just that in the wing room at the back of this house, something terrible is happening.
Medical dissection was not liked in the era of Shen Qiu's hometown, let alone this feudal antiquity.
The people here pay attention to the dead, and if tonight's incident is revealed, Shen Qiu will really become a generation of demons.
Even worse than the reputation of the people in the Demon Cult.
But he didn't feel much of it.
As the sharp short knife in his hand slashed through the cold flesh, he even felt a faint nostalgia in his heart, as if he was back in the dissecting room that exuded a strong formalin smell.
"I look at your knife technique, in your Mo family heritage, there must be a complete anatomy.
It's just that you didn't learn it well. ”
Shen Qiu dealt with Xiuhe's corpse calmly with his eyes, and said to the Qingyang Demon Monarch beside him, who was holding his head and not saying a word:
"To say that you haven't learned well is not to say that you are not good at your craft, but that you don't pay attention to details.
Just like those chicks in my hometown, I think that the details are useless, and everything is generally good. ”
"Smack"
The slender large arteries in the legs are carefully stripped of their flesh.
While doing "handiwork", Shen Qiu said to Ai Dacha:
"I was the same when I first learned, but I was severely reprimanded by my mentor and master, and then I understood the importance of those details."
He glanced at Ai Dacha, who did not speak and had a gloomy face, and said:
"The accuracy of the details is the biggest difference between slaughter and art.
A skilled butcher can easily kill people, but no matter how good a butcher is, he can't save people."
"You hit the streets!"
Ai Dacha gritted his teeth and said:
"Lao Tzu admits that your hand is really powerful.
But don't think that you have the qualifications to sit and talk with Lao Tzu! Also, where did you learn this? Isn't he from a family? ”
"Hey, you guessed it."
Shen Qiu chuckled.
He said nonsense:
"My father starved to death in Yanjiao, but at that time, Yanjing was the first on the list.
This is a family heirloom, the next thing is to deal with small blood vessels, it is estimated that you will need to use true qi to maintain, I can't do it, you can only come. ”
He took a step back and handed the dagger in his hand to the Demon Lord.
The latter snorted, stepped forward, and injected the subtle true qi in his body into his fingers, making them as sharp as knives.
began to use a technique that dazzled Shen Qiu to completely peel off the meridians and small blood vessels on Xiuhe's corpse.
The living dead, the mechanism of the Mo family's secret arts, can use true qi, and its secret lies in these blood vessels and meridians in the body like spider webs.
Although Shen Qiu deliberately belittled Ai Dacha's craftsmanship.
But he also had to admit that in addition to the gloomy and terrifying style, watching the Demon Lord deal with these is like an art performance that only exists in a dream.
This secret technique of the Mo family, no matter how you look at it, does not look like the level of Jianghu martial arts.
Shen Qiu looked at Ai Dacha's movements, and he couldn't help but think that maybe this Mo family inheritance also came directly from those who cultivated immortals.
"I have a question that I can't figure out."
Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and tapped on Xiuhe's cold skin, the person has been dead for more than ten days, and his muscles can still maintain a certain degree of elasticity.
It's not scientific!
The Demon Lord smiled, as if he was showing off his skills, and as if he was deliberately intimidating Shen Qiu, he said:
"You're wondering why this corpse doesn't rot, right?"
"Hmm."
Shen Qiu nodded, and Ai Dacha said proudly:
"Herbs are one thing, but more because Lao Tzu used Gu worms.
The Gu worm obtained from the Wu Gu Dao in Miaojiang, Xiangxi, is called the Burial Gu, which was cultivated by Sister Tongtang herself, and the natural effect is amazing, and it is normal for people like you to be curious. ”
"That Miao Jiang's funeral is peculiar, when Lao Tzu was young, he also saw the hanging coffin in the mountains, after being implanted with a burial Gu, the body that died for more than a hundred years without decay.
What is this? ”
Shen Qiu blinked.
He can accept martial arts, true qi, and even flying sword immortal arts.
But this Gu worm, even in his hometown, only exists in legends.
He asked:
"You control the witch of the witch Gu Dao, one of the seven sects of the Demon Sect, and Mrs. Tongtang, who makes the rivers and lakes change color, call the eldest sister? Do you have a good relationship with the Miao Jiang witch who is said to be indifferent and ruthless and makes good use of demon Gu? ”
"Of course!"
Ai Dacha smiled, waved the small braids scattered around his hair, and said:
"We're a big deal, but it's Sister Tongtang's own person.
The eldest sister, like me, doesn't care about the affairs of the Demon Sect at all, and the two of me are willing to join the Demon Sect because of Brother Zhang.
Now that Brother Zhang is gone, then the two of us and the Demon Sect naturally have nothing to do with it. It's a pity that the eldest sister has a deep love for Brother Zhang, but she is a step late, and even regrets it for life. ”
The Qingyang Demon Lord couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and for a moment, Shen Qiu felt as if he had regained his senses.
But soon, he reverted back to his crazy and vicious voice.
"Why do you ask so much?"
He waved his hand impatiently and said:
"Stay and go, it's about to be dealt with at dawn, go and give Lao Tzu the wind, if someone comes, kill it!"
Although the Demon Lord's tone was impatient.
But Shen Qiu could feel that this Ai Dacha was indeed a little more patient with himself.
Actually, it's quite easy to deal with these Mo family members who play tricks.
They are essentially a group of craftsmen, and they have a lot of respect for people who have crafts, and it is not difficult to talk to them as long as they show their craft.
Obviously, the skills that Shen Qiu showed just now couldn't convince Ai Dacha.
But at least it made him approve of it.
"I've seen the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Four Guards, they can understand orders and react, they really don't look like people who have died."
Shen Qiu leaned against the door, and he asked:
"Could it be that your Mo family really has the ability to bring people back to life?"
"No, messing up life and death, that's a story that only exists in the book of immortals, how can Lao Tzu do it?"
Ai Da said without looking back:
"Lao Tzu uses other methods, if you want to know, you can see it in a few days, don't ask too much now, Lao Tzu is busy, very annoying!"
Shen Qiu didn't stop talking.
He added:
"You keep the blood vessels and meridians, and the following dantian and heart knots continue to circulate the true qi, which I probably understand, but do you want to use those organs and artifacts to ensure the operation of Xiuhe's limbs?
If you don't exert an initial force on her, even if she has true qi, she won't be able to move at all, right? ”
"The secret is there!"
Ai Dacha pointed to a few boxes on the edge of the house, where the assembled mechanism artifacts were placed, and he said:
"If you want to know, just go and see for yourself!"
Shen Qiu's gaze fell on those artifacts.
One of the longest of them is clearly modeled after the assembly of the human spine.
He walked over, crouched there, reached out and touched it.
There was a slimy substance like engine oil on the fingers, and there were many intricate structures connected by tough leather ropes on those objects.
Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and turned it, feeling a little struggling, and after a little thought, he understood the general principle.
He said:
"These, are they winches?
Use gear linkage and lever transmission to accumulate power? It's like a clockwork doll on a music box, it's really exquisite. ”
"You know a lot."
Ai Dacha glanced at Shen Qiu and said:
"This is not something that a family should understand, right?"
"I have a good relationship with Wujiu Juzi."
Shen Qiu said casually:
"I've also seen some Mojia organs, and I probably understand the function. But why do you need to use such a backward way of accumulating power as a winch when you can design such an ingenious structure? ”
Puzzled, he said:
"Isn't it easier to use a clockwork and take up less bearing?"
"Clockwork?"
Ai Dacha was stunned for a moment, and he said:
"What's that?"
"Huh?"
Shen Qiu's eyes were also round, he pointed to the precision mechanism in the box, and said:
"You can all design something like this, and you don't have a clockwork yet?"
"The Heavenly Secret Technique was developed by the ancestor of the Mo family."
Ai Dacha said in a deep voice:
"But after the aura was depleted, a lot of the inheritance was lost, perhaps, there were. In short, you say, what is clockwork? ”
"Clockwork is"
Shen Qiu was about to speak, but suddenly stopped.
His eyes rolled, he pointed to his shoulder, and he said:
"I know about this secret art of the Mo family occasionally, but the law cannot be passed on lightly. I don't ask you to give me anything, I tell you, how about you take the needle out of my body? ”
"Okay!"
Ai Dacha laughed cruelly, and with a wave of his fingers, he clamped more than a dozen small needles between his fingers, and said:
"Lao Tzu won't force you to hit the street.
You say it first, it's okay, Lao Tzu will help you get the needle, but if it's nonsense, Lao Tzu will give you a dozen more needles and make you a waste, so good? ”
"Okay, that's it."
Shen Qiu took out a finger-wide iron plate from the box, threw it to Ai Dacha, and said:
"Roll it up, don't break it."
The Demon Lord snorted, grabbed the edge of the iron piece with two fingers, and flicked it casually, and the true qi was injected, and the iron piece was rolled together and thrown back.
Shen Qiu took it in his hand, pressed the iron pieces together until they were rolled together, and then put them in front of Ai Dacha's eyes, and his fingers were released.
"Smack"
The rolled iron piece bounced violently.
"That's clockwork."
Shen Qiu said:
"It's a simple thing, but I think if you make it big enough and craft it with some good steel, the power it builds up when it's rolled up.
Maybe not as big as a winch, but at least it's convenient to use, and it takes up much less space, and it can be reloaded with many.
Add them up one by one, and the final force generated is definitely much stronger than that of a bulky winch. ”
The Qingyang Demon Lord didn't speak.
He stretched out his strong hand, picked up the clockwork in Shen Qiu's palm, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, and after a while, Ai Dacha suddenly slapped a palm, hitting Shen Qiu's shoulder.
With a whoosh, a small needle burst out of the body, and was sucked by the wolf stick in Ai Dacha's hand like a magnet.
"Not bad."
Ai Dacha glanced at Shen Qiu, and for the first time there was no contempt in his eyes, but he quickly changed back to his evil voice and crazy appearance.
He shook the needle in his hand and said sharply:
"What else do you know besides this clockwork! Say it all!
There are also five needles, if you say it well, Lao Tzu will help you pull them all out, anyway, with your kung fu, in Lao Tzu's hands, you can't turn over the flowers. ”
"That's right."
Shen Qiu moved his shoulders, he racked his brains in his mind to think about the mechanical knowledge in his hometown, and said to Ai Dacha:
"There is also a spring called spring, I see that you also have something similar in the Mo family's machine technique, but the material is not enough, and it is not useful."
Shen Qiu used his fingers to draw a spring shape on the coffin, and he said:
"Although this human still has muscle tissue, it is not as flexible as a living person.
If you add a spring to it, then whether it is dodging, punching, or flying, the speed will be much faster. And your tricks.
I think it's ingenious enough, it's ingenious, it's ingenious, but it's too ingenious. ”
Shen Qiu spread out his hands and said to Ai Dacha:
"Shouldn't these agency people be cannon fodder to replace the consumption of human lives?
Cheap, easy to use, large in quantity, and fast to build, this is the biggest advantage of the agency people, if I were you, the Demon King, I would change my thinking.
I'm not going to go all over the world to find good materials, but to use those bad materials to make more inferior people.
Anyway, the cost is low, and it doesn't hurt if it's broken. First of all, the more energetic the number, he talked eloquently about Ai Dacha:
"Also, why do you have to be a humanoid puppet?
From a biological point of view, human evolution is simply too bad, and the real lethality should be the worm-type puppet!
No matter how bad it is, the beast form is much better than the human form. ”
"Wrong!"
Qingyang Demon Lord shook his head, and he said to Shen Qiu seriously:
"Insects and beasts, they can't use their true qi, and they can't be a heavenly martial guard, as for the reason. I'll tell you later, but if it's the quantity:
"Indeed, if you want to be cheap, fast, and not distressed, then there is really no need to be attached to humanoid puppets, you go on!"
Shen Qiu smiled and said nothing.
He gestured to his shoulder.
"Shh
Ai Da snorted disdainfully, slapped another palm, and forced out two needles.
Shen Qiu felt that the true qi in his body had recovered a little, so he continued:
"According to the Demon Lord, only humanoid puppets can be heavenly warriors, but why do you have to be exactly like humans?
Can't you make a puppet with three heads and six arms, or wings behind it, and six spiders with long legs? ”
He said:
"Imagination limits the play of you craftsmen!
And, Demon Lord, you're a waste! ”
Shen Qiu pointed to Xiuhe's corpse and said:
"In my opinion, this kind of delicate mechanism of the living dead should not be taken out and used directly, if I were to design it, I would add another exoskeleton to her periphery, you can imagine it.
In a big organ, set a small organ. ”
Shen Qiu stretched out his hands and gestured:
"Even in Xiuhe's body, you can also place smaller and more concealed assassination agents, and put four or five of them, this one Xiuhe is equivalent to a walking legion!"
"It's like a matryoshka, as long as you are willing to design it carefully, it is an infinite nesting doll."
Shen Qiu opened his arms and said to the Qingyang Demon Lord:
"With Xiuhe's appearance and figure, even if he is made into a machine, in my hometown, if he takes it out, he will be robbed by a group of fat houses and shouting at his wife
Demon Lord, Demon Lord, what a waste you are! ”
Adachamo rubbed his stubble chin and didn't speak.
His eyes kept searching back and forth between Xiuhe's corpse and the pair of mechanism creations in the corner, and after a while, Ai Dacha made up his mind, and he said to Shen Qiu:
"Early tomorrow morning, return to Suzhou!"
"Lao Tzu wants to borrow the Mo family forging furnace of Tianji Pavilion to use, and then borrow your wonderful idea to make a machine person that is different from the secret art record!"
