Chapter 150: Mo Dao
Chapter 150: Mo Dao
In the next few days, Zhao Shi calmed down, according to Mr. Chen's point, sorted out what he said that night, his words are unsightly is true, and Mr. Chen has no way to do it, but it is also strange, this young man is not a stupid person, but this hand can not progress, the literati of this era have always had a saying that they look at words as if they were people, but this statement is completely inaccurate when it comes to Zhao Shi, Zhao Shi himself is helpless, since he came into contact with the knowledge of this era, This character is also practiced diligently every day, but the hand just doesn't listen to his own call, if he teaches him a calligraphy master, he has to be angry half to death.
These are all digressions, not to mention for the time being, this is to present the article of today's holy imperial review, after Zhao Shi sorted it out, it was written by Mr. Chen, and the kung fu cited by the circumstantial evidence in the middle had to be added by the old man himself, among them, Zhao Shi did not add a little bit of things into it, he also thinks about it now, what kind of martial arts has nothing to do with him now, too much, according to Mr. Chen's words, it is suspected of grandstanding, under the old gentleman's point, Zhao Shi can be regarded as having a preliminary understanding of the principle of being cautious in the officialdom.
After doing this, life seems to be calm again, Zhao Shi no longer thinks about others, taking advantage of this kung fu to be a good student under Mr. Chen's door, after so many things, I don't understand that with some memories and knowledge brought by the previous life, just like in this era to gain a foothold in the spirit is simply a fool's dream, I don't understand poetry, I don't understand the Four Books and Five Classics, and even the text has to be learned now, even if you have more than a thousand years of knowledge than these people, it is in vain, fortunately, he is still young now, It's not too late to learn. If it is still the age of the previous life, it seems that only the profession of killer is the most suitable for him, not to mention the general, it is a seven-grade county order for him to be the one, and it is estimated that it will be a mess to do.
Such days passed in a flash, and during this time, Zhao Shi went to see the Li Bowen who picked it up a few times, this person has some ability to be at ease with what he encounters, although he was a little surprised when he came to King Jing's Mansion. But after that, he stayed in peace of mind, and never proposed to escape again, but a poisonous tongue was really annoying, and after a while, he spat venom in the middle of these palace guards, disgusting these guards half to death, and after that, no one could get along with him unless necessary. When he stepped forward to find himself, he was not very comfortable, but he was happy, he stretched out his hand for his clothes, and opened his mouth for food. I didn't see it for a few days, and I got fat, and it seems that I am quite nourishing to live here, and this kind of ability is really difficult for people to do, but fortunately, these days because King Jing was in charge of the army. The discipline of everyone in the house is also very strict, and everyone is trembling, otherwise with the rudeness of these guards, they may be able to tear this poisonous-mouthed Mr. Li into pieces.
King Jing Li Xuanjin hasn't seen much people these days, it is estimated that he is busy hitting the back of the head, Qi Ziping, Hu Shenzhou and others have been transferred to the military department, and they all have official titles. It is also King Jing's private person, and it is natural for the military department to help the ministry affairs, and no one will make irresponsible remarks about it.
More than a month later, the news came, King Jing used thunderous means to get six or seven military officials into the prison, not to mention, the next guys who fought on the streets of Chang'an also did not fall well. Finally two were chopped. Five were exiled, and the rest of the official positions were all taken to the end. Plus a sentence that will never be used.
Although the status and official positions of these people are very low, but on the one hand, they are the people of the Fold Family, and on the other hand, they are the subordinates of the King of the River, so harshly disposed of, which makes people think about it, but they are also shocked by the means and courage of King Jing, the officials of the Criminal Department are deeply touched in this matter, let's just say that the people of the Fold Family, since the arrest of those few gentlemen, this relative and friend came to the door to cry, and the noisy people who went to the door to intercede were as big as a fight, and even the heads of the Criminal Department were secretly scolded in their hearts, why are the people of your military department locked up in our Criminal Department? No, you go to Dali Temple, this hot potato is in your hand, it's really uncomfortable, I wish the military department would hurry up and come up with a charter, whether the punishment is or can't control that much, there is a general on it, and the king of the river is pressing, who wants to touch this moldy head?
After this disposition, in addition to the people in the criminal department, they are secretly happy, but the people next to them are also gloating, but it is disappointing that the general who returned to Beijing to report on his work did not have the thunderous anger, I heard that at the banquet in the prince's mansion, he also talked with King Jing very happily, and then the king of the river, now the Yongyi Uncle in the river is no longer the first person who returned to Qin for thousands of miles and was covered in blood, Han Wei is old and has not heard of the world for many years, Now this Yong Yi Uncle still has the heroic style of the old man, and some clues can be seen from this incident, and there seems to be no reaction in the river.
In this way, not to mention anything else, the people in the military department have all recognized the means of this prince, in addition to disposing of a few people in the Zhejia and the river, more than a dozen people in the military department are locked up in the prison, from the request to arrest people, even a day's work is useless, and then a few people were arrested in the forbidden army in front of the palace, all of which are related to Gong Yi's assassination, and it is estimated that at least it is a crime of dereliction of duty, and then it is bigger, if you really have anything to do with those assassins, it is light to raid the family and exterminate the clan, this action down, The military department was immediately in order, and Li Yanchu, the left attendant of the military department, who was not yin or yang, also shrank his head at this time, not to mention the others.
According to Li Xuanjin's thoughts, he actually expected to beat these people, but what he didn't expect was to pick up the radish and carry the mud, and the matter was a little uncontrollable.
However, although the reputation is a little more urgent, and the reputation is a little bad, it is really handy to do things later, but at this time there are only benefits.
Zhao Shi has heard of these things, in his life, what has changed is that there is more and more trend of servants in the place of residence, plus the original few rough subordinates, but now there are two more boys waiting for him, and there are also two cooks in the house, and a wooden house has been converted into a kitchen, so there is no need to send food from the house every day.
There was also a gentleman in charge of the accounts, and the rough maid also came six, and after a while, Zhao Shi suddenly found that it seemed that this place was really about to become a big family. The prince's intention to let him live here forever is obvious.
On the morning of this day, Zhao Shi got up and finished washing, but it was the boy who came to report, and the manager Dong asked to see him, this manager Dong was beaten by Zhao Shi before, and he always avoided Zhao Shi after that, not as a last resort, even if he met on the road, he immediately found a way to turn to him. I thought it was because I was afraid that Zhao Shi would come to him again to discuss it.
But I came to the door early this morning, and I guess there was something.
Sure enough, the manager of Dong didn't turn around when he saw him, and said directly: "Wuju is approaching, Zhao Dutou doesn't have any weapons to take advantage of, and the prince and his mother are also worried about it, but the prince has been too busy recently, so he has to ask our family to help pick it." What did Zhao Dutou usually do? ”
Zhao Shi didn't expect such a thing, now he already knows the matter of martial arts, martial arts is divided into four stages, the first is archery, this level Zhao Shi is not the slightest bit sure. Anyone can shoot archery, but it is extremely difficult to shoot accurately, do not understand this archery as a project in the later games, and aim at the target for half a day. The bow used is also bells and whistles, advanced is advanced, but when encountering the soldiers of this era, I am afraid that the bow has been shot into a hedgehog before the bow is raised, this level has the distinction of mounted archery and foot shooting, and the target is held in the hands of some well-protected large living people, like a mobile target, and those who are hit by all eight arrows enter the next level.
The second is cavalry warfare. Mr. Chen said some rules, and when Zhao Shi heard it, he felt that it was a knight duel in the Middle Ages, and it was also very similar to the generals in the novel.
The third level is a foot battle, which is still a duel between two people, and the stronger one wins.
As for the end, it became a group station, and everyone chose a hundred soldiers to start a melee in the Xishan Royal Hunting Ground. The last one left is the winner. Champion, leader. Tanhua and Jinshi are naturally determined according to the table of each field.
Except for the first level of archery, which is an elimination system, the rest have to determine the winner, as for the scoring criteria, it is naturally determined by the ranking of each person's game.
In Zhao Shi's view, these things are also full of loopholes, among which there are a lot of fortunate factors and artificial things that affect the results, but there is nothing strange to think about, after all, it is impossible to be as accurate as the champion of the sports meeting, and there is only one martial champion, such a four-level down, even if the final selection is not bad, besides, according to Mr. Chen, the martial arts of the southern countries are even more rare, as long as the individual is strong enough, it is extremely easy to grab a martial champion.
However, the martial arts of Daqin are also quite dangerous, although they are all wooden knives and swords, but there have been deaths and injuries in martial arts over the years, Zhao Shi is not surprised by this, even if he used chopsticks in his previous life, he can use chopsticks as a killing instrument, not to mention now, the wooden knife and wooden sword are similar to sharp weapons, and he will go down with all his strength, although the stone will not be broken, but I believe that he can still cut off other people's heads, which also shows the fierce competition in Daqin Wuju.
"Isn't it a wooden knife or a wooden sword or something like that? Can you still use a steel sword and a sword? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and asked.
"That's not it." Manager Dong smiled on his white face, since the last incident, he was a little uncomfortable standing in front of this young man, and this smile was also a little reluctant, but he still patiently explained: "But Niang Niang said there, let you take a weapon and practice first...... Well, this emperor's big birthday performance must be very grand, maybe someone will take the opportunity to make trouble, and the royal competition is also made of wooden swords, but it may also fight with life, or be prepared. ”
As soon as Zhao Shi heard it, he understood that this matter did not seem to be simple, maybe the princes who were staring at the throne would have no other signs, but their lives would have to be fought by the people below.
"Well, Zhao Dutou doesn't have to worry too much, after all, it's the emperor's birthday, and it won't be too embarrassing to make trouble......" Seeing Zhao Shi frowning, Manager Dong hurriedly comforted him, but it didn't sound convincing.
However, since Zhao Shi came here, in addition to the horizontal knife beside him, he really didn't know what to make it easier, and now this horizontal knife from the county lieutenant of Gongyi County is in his hand, and there is no weight at all, which really makes him a little helpless, and it is just right at this time to see if there is a suitable blade for him to choose.
Manager Dong took Zhao Shi to the back of the palace, which was an important place for the treasury, and there was a special person to guard and guard it, and there was a small official called the treasury supervisor, who led him to the door of a house that looked more like a warehouse.
Wait for this old man, who seems to have been miserable all day, to open the door lock. Pushing open the heavy door, the two of them took the lead and walked in, this is indeed a warehouse, but it is not the same as Zhao Shi thought, it is clean and refreshing, and it looks spotless, and it is obvious that someone often cleans it up here.
But the contents of this storehouse were all kinds of weapons, some of which were placed on shelves. There are hanging on the wall, all kinds, dazzling, very much like an ancient weapons exhibition, some weapons even Zhao Shi can't name them, these weapons are very well maintained, the blade is open, the cold light flickered. The decorations on some weapons are even more luxurious, with swords, guns, swords, halberds, and everything else, as for the quality, the things in the palace will not be bad.
"This is the arsenal of the palace, and the prince liked to collect these murder weapons when he was young. It has today's scale, and some of the blades are even from the arsenal in the palace......" Speaking of this, Manager Dong picked up a box on a table, opened it and took out a long sword with a strange style. After rubbing his hand a few times, he looked at Zhao Shidao: "This sword weapon is an antiquity of the Qin period, although it is only a copper sword, but the sharp point is no less than the stainless steel long sword, the most special thing is that it has been immortal for more than a thousand years, and only this long sword is a rare treasure." ”
He put the long sword that was more like an antique back and pulled out a halberd from a shelf, the black halberd body. I don't know what material it is made of, the crescent moon on the head of the halberd is cold, obviously very sharp, he danced, the wind was fierce, it didn't seem to be light, "This is the long halberd used by the generals in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and it is rare in the army now." At that time, only the children of the gate valve family were able to use the land......"
This Dong manager knew that Zhao Shi was from a poor family. I don't know much about weapons, so I'll introduce them one by one here. It really made Zhao Shi gain a lot of knowledge, especially the two huge hammers hanging on a shelf, which reminded Zhao Shi of Li Yuanba, who was known as the world's number one fierce general.
But he naturally won't use this somewhat nonsensical thing, with Mr. Dong's side, he took out a dagger in the east and waved it, and fiddled with it in the west, all he paid attention to was the knife, but the knife was generally not very heavy, it was the machete that was specially widened and thickened, and the ring knife felt too light in his hand, so he wandered around for a long time, but none of them satisfied him, so he picked up a dagger and inserted it in his waist, and then took a horizontal knife, but replaced his own random one.
Manager Dong just smiled bitterly, this is not polite, it seems that I don't know how much glory it is to be able to come here and pick weapons at will, unhurried, not very polite, and a little funny, the horizontal knife is also forgotten, but the dagger is known at a glance for women's self-defense, more like a plaything, he is good, without hesitation inserted into the waist, a big man, get a dagger, inevitably a little nondescript, well, the red eyebrows in his room, it seems that he has done something with him, is it to give away? If this is the case, this person will be a little unprofessional, such a great opportunity, and still thinking about women and women, it is really a hard work for the prince.
Although he thought like this in his heart, he didn't say anything about it, but he dutifully explained the advantages and disadvantages of these weapons to him, but where did he think about it, Zhao Shi was born in special forces in his previous life, and in this era, some of the skills of special soldiers are similar to those of assassins, this dagger is useful, if it is not for the current identity change, he still wants to choose a machete, but the machete in the jungle is a necessary tool.
After a long time, until Manager Dong said that his mouth was dry and his eyes were staring, and he wanted to stuff these valuable weapons into Zhao Shi's head, Zhao Shi's eyes lit up, and his eyes were fixed on a long knife with a strange style inserted in a shelf.
The reason why this is a strange style is mainly because it looks two or three meters long, saying that it is a long weapon, but the blade is much longer than the handle, the knife surface is wide, the back of the knife is heavy, slightly bent and arc-shaped, the handle has the thickness of an arm, and there is a circle of leather wrapped on it, in fact, it looks like an enlarged version of the horizontal knife from the appearance.
Zhao Shi stepped forward and picked it up, first weighed it, it was still too light, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry, but such a weapon in his hand was really a murder weapon, and with a swing of the knife, it was estimated that anything in front of him would be a knife or two, and the death would be extremely miserable.
"This is a Mo knife, and it is also something used by sergeants and soldiers in the Sui and Tang dynasties." Manager Dong was a little impatient, and when he saw that he finally had a weapon of interest, he immediately came over and explained: "The Mo knife is not available to those who are brave in the army, once it is formed, it is extremely powerful, and when there is an obstruction, under the swing of the Mo knife, the people and horses are broken, it is really a sharp weapon in the army, but my Qin army has been abandoned for a long time......"
"Why?" Zhao Shi couldn't help asking.
"First, the training of this Mo knife soldier is too harsh, if there is damage, it is not easy to make up for it, and secondly, the Mo knife soldier lacks protection, he can't form an army alone, and his action is slow, so he is gradually abandoned, but some generals still like to use it, what do you think of this?"
He has some ill intentions, this Mo knife is really a sharp weapon to kill in the army, but if it is a competition, it seems a little cumbersome, the duel between the two and the battle array are definitely two different things, just imagine a person holding an ash pole but let a person with a short knife get close, it is estimated that the result is that he can not die anymore, but who makes the eunuch's heart and eyes are not big, although there was some misunderstanding in the previous incident, but he has suffered a big loss, this feeling uncomfortable is inevitable, and then this opportunity, It is also reasonable to be insidious.
However, Zhao Shi shook the Mo knife in his hand again, shook his head, and when Manager Dong saw it, he knew that he had already moved his heart to this thing, but he was just a little dissatisfied, and immediately asked, "What?" Discord? ”
"It's too light."
Is this still light? Mr. Dong clicked his lips, thinking that he was still relatively lucky, he didn't let this guy come to his body that day, it was really thanks to God's blessing, although he is also a person who practices martial arts, he is also a little strange how Zhao Shi's strange power is practiced.
Although he thought like this in his heart, he immediately said: "Okay, this Mo knife is different from the Fang Cai bronze long sword, it doesn't need to be made by secret methods, and the handle of this knife is also wooden, so it is better to replace it with stainless steel, and then add some weight to the knife body, it is estimated that it will be about the same." ”
Zhao Shi nodded, but he didn't know that the other party's intentions were a little sinister, but he felt that it was very good to use this, his equestrian skills are also very proficient so far, but waving the horizontal knife on the horse, it does feel that it is not long enough, and the weight is not enough, this Mo knife is just right, as for fighting with people, he is now barehanded, and there is not much difference between holding a big knife, and then like those guards in the house to ask for sword skills and other kung fu.
In this way, the matter will be decided, Dong Zongguan went to the craftsman to customize weapons for him, not to mention, Zhao Shi also took care of the martial arts, and it was easy to say, only this first level was a little difficult for him, and he was familiar with archery, after all, in jungle warfare, sometimes arrows are better than firearms, but it is not easy for him to shoot the moving target openly.
So after that, in addition to listening to Mr. Chen's lectures, he found a longbow to practice archery......
