Chapter 209: Fierce Tiger Shen Ke
The appearance of the fierce tiger Shen Ke undoubtedly refreshed Tang Ying's three views, like him, he is sitting upright, he can be described as a demon who can be described as 'upright', even Tang Ying is the first time the eldest girl has seen it in a sedan chair.
In addition, the identity of 'Jinyiwei' is enough to make Tang Ying staggered.
Compared with the blood of the Qing Dynasty, Jinyiwei is definitely a thunderous title in history, although it is a military officer, even the ministers in power in the court are afraid of it.
And as far as Tang Ying knows, Jin Yiwei is not as swaggering as in the movie performance, on the contrary, Jin Yiwei is very low-key when he goes out to do things, and he has many functions, such as the power of the 'honor guard, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and the Three Law Divisions'. It can be said that in that era, from the pillars of the country to the common people, no one wanted to be targeted by the brocade guards.
During the day, they are ornate honor guards, and at night, they become dark dancers, and blood and carnage are nothing more commonplace for them.
In the official history, there is no record of the 'Four Beasts'.
But Tang Ying had read a wild history, and the top-level Jinyi Guard would be promoted to the Four Beast Messengers.
In the traditional impression, the four beasts are the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu. However, the four beasts of Jinyiwei are slightly different, and they are changed to black dragons, fierce tigers, fire phoenixes, and panwu.
To understand with current thinking, if Jinyiwei is a special soldier, then the messenger of the four beasts is a special soldier among special forces, similar to the king of soldiers, sharp knives and the like. Cold-blooded and ruthless, killing people invisibly, he is not so much a spy as a top killer. And Shen Ke had already clearly said just now that his nickname was 'Fierce Tiger'.
In other words, he almost stood at the pinnacle of human force value during his lifetime and became the top Jinyi guard.
In retrospect, when he said that he had killed everyone and that the first person to be killed was Jingyan, it turned out that he was not arrogant, let alone exaggerated, but definitely had the ability.
What made Tang Ying most unbelievable was that when he checked the information of the Ming Dynasty before, he accidentally found a local stall of literature, and the name had been forgotten, but he did remember that there was a character in it, whose name seemed to be Shen Ke, and the official worshiped the fierce tiger Jinyiwei.
Could it be that the book is not fiction? Or is there really a person like Shen Ke in history, but it has not been recorded in the official history?
If that's the case, that's a big deal.
According to the literature of the stall, Shen Ke was literate at the age of three, could read military books at the age of five, practiced martial arts at the age of eight, and fought invincible opponents within a radius of fifty miles at the age of twelve. Later, by chance, he entered the Jinyi Wei errand and became a fierce tiger, when he was only twenty-four years old! It is simply an expert in the field of hard work, a representative of absolute force.
When he was a Jinyi guard, there were hundreds of people who were directly killed by him.
After becoming a Black Lotus Cultist, there is no accurate concept of how many people he killed.
It's a pity that even this kind of killing machine is trapped by the word 'love' in the end, after performing a secret mission to kill the target's whole family, Shen Ke suddenly found that the target's daughter turned out to be a woman he never forgot and dreamed of.
All day long, grief-stricken and sick, he chose a cliff to take medicine and commit suicide, and went with her.
It is impossible for a person like him to be buried after death, and no one even looks for the corpse, drowning in the torrent of history.
