Forty-two: Pacify the envoy
Mu Zhou asked, "Was it the intruder last night, how many people did you kill?" ”
“…… One. ”
Mu Zhou smiled, poured himself a glass of wine, and said something mindless, "Brother Li, do you remember what I said when I taught you sword techniques?" ”
Li Sui'an thought for a long time, "Which sentence?" ”
"'I hope you can use this knife technique to save more people in need', and Brother Li's response at that time was also very interesting."
Li Sui'an didn't know what to do, "Is this necessarily related to the change of Daogang?" ”
Mu Zhou took a moment to say: "I believe that Brother Li has already noticed something. You have an amazing talent in the sword path, you can learn the basic sword tricks as soon as you learn them, and you will refine them as soon as you practice them, and you have already practiced to the realm of perfection in just a few days, but the progress of the Moon Slashing Sword Gang is slow. ”
Li Sui said with peace of mind, where do I have any sword talent.
He didn't want to admit it, but the proficiency of the Moon Slashing Knife did rise very slowly.
The reason why he focuses on the basic sword technique is because of the slow progress in the moon slashing knife technique. In fact, in the beginning, he worked more on the latter.
I only thought it was an advanced knife technique, so it would be so time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Now it doesn't sound like that.
I only heard Mu Zhou continue: "This is still the early stage, and the more you go to the back, the more difficult it is to practice. Do you know the fastest cultivation method for the Moon Slashing Sword? ”
"Isn't it a step-by-step process?"
"It's murder."
Li Sui'an was speechless.
"After death, the energy of the body does not dissipate immediately, but disintegrates into the qi and blood, and it will disappear in heaven and earth with the passage of time. The Moon Slashing Knife Method has a unique characteristic, which can temper the sword with the qi and blood of a person before death. The more people you kill, the stronger the sword will be. If you can't resist the temptation, you may become a murderer in the future. ”
"And yet ......"
Mu Zhou wanted to speak and stopped.
"And yet what?" Li Sui'an couldn't wait to ask.
Hates Riddlers the most.
"You're going to kill a lot of people later. However, when you rely on the murder knife to achieve success, you are not far from death. ”
Li Suixin was a little resentful, "Is there a fatal flaw in the knife technique?" ”
"Definitely! Someone will come to ask for your life, he will devour your sword, let your sword become a part of his sword, and eventually make him stronger. ”
"Who?"
Mu Zhou's face was melancholy, "It's my master, known as Yuesuo." ”
“…… Joking? ”
Isn't this a furnace? Fattened and slaughtered?
Li Sui'an was a little painful, the name "Yue Lao" didn't match at all, shouldn't it be called a sword demon or something.
"So you came to the Northlands to escape for your life?"
"Yes and no."
"How strong is your master?"
"It's strong, so strong that I can't guess. I was just one of his many disciples. I know what you think in your heart, I didn't come to the Northland because of Shizun, who does not restrict the freedom of his disciples, nor does he prohibit the outflow of sword techniques. If you meet a good talent, you will even take the initiative to send a knife technique. But as long as you use this sword technique and rely on killing people to achieve great success, you will be sensed by him. Then travel thousands of miles to find you. No matter where he's hiding, he'll come to the door and hack you to death. ”
"Back then, I was forced to take the initiative to seek the master's door because of other things. My sword skills are not very good, and it took a lot of hard work to be able to give this sword technique. ”
"Brother Li, don't worry, if you just use the Moon Cutting Knife Method to kill demons, evil spirits, and demon beasts, it will be fine. The power of the Moon Slashing Knife is definitely worth the price. And you have only killed one person, and after a long time, you have repeatedly tempered it with your own strength, and when the strength of the sword gang exceeds the current level again, this blood color will naturally fade. ”
Regarding Mu Zhou's rhetoric, Li Sui'an was skeptical.
But when I heard that it could be resolved, I was also relieved.
"Brother Shepherd, you really should have told me earlier?"
Mu Zhou heard his complaint and said with a wry smile: "At that time, I wanted to sell knives instead of knife techniques, and you asked to learn knife techniques yourself." And if you don't experience it yourself, you may not believe what I say. In case you are not strong-willed, I told you in advance, but it will lead you astray. I'm afraid that it will be difficult to return, and it is really my fault. ”
Li Sui's head was depressed for most of the time, "Gotcha!" It's because I'm smart but I'm mistaken by being smart, so I won't have to kill people without a knife in the future. ”
"I hope so. Although I didn't see that person with my own eyes last night, I also sensed his surging energy from a distance, and the realm of the peak of the quenching body is not far behind, and his strength is far beyond you. But you slash the moon with a sword, defeat the strong with the weak, and easily kill it. Just ask, how many warriors in the world can resist the temptation of the strength of the Moon Slashing Daogang. ”
Li Sui'an's expression was serious, "You're right. The Moon Slashing Blade is indeed extremely powerful, and it has helped me a lot. If I am in danger and urgently need to improve my strength to save myself, I may not be able to control myself from killing people and quickly increase the power of the sword. ”
In last night's battle, the biggest hero was naturally an instantaneous escape, and he didn't justify it.
After all, such a knife technique bought with money is naturally a lot of money. If you put on a look of being uneasy again, you will be a little ignorant.
"If only you could understand. Brother Li has time, you might as well read more Buddhist scriptures and Taoist books. ”
"Buddhist scriptures, Taoist books? Okay, I made a note of it. ”
……
Back home, Li Sui'an had an extra bronze token in his hand.
The token is engraved with a ghost head emblem.
[Messenger Decree.] Identity: Ghost cha. Merit value: thirty-five. 】
What the hell?
After hastily disposing of the body last night, such a thing was found on him.
Looking left and right, I didn't understand which organization's token it was.
But since this thing can bubble up words, I think it's also a magic weapon.
He remembered the strange body and martial arts of that person last night, and the inheritance should not be weak.
With some uneasiness in his heart, he turned over his hand and put the bronze token into the empty nest and continued to practice the knife.
Last night's sudden encounter with a gangster made the atmosphere in the house tense.
Fu Qingnian also lost the excitement of winning the championship at the previous wine tasting, and after finishing the work in hand, he found Li Sui'an, who practiced knives.
"Lin Qing is leaving?"
"Yes. He has passed the recruitment assessment of the Night's Watch, and as long as his military merits are sufficient, he can become a regular. ”
After Li Sui'an understood the situation, it was not easy to keep him, after all, the other party was going to pursue his own martial arts.
And the road to the "end of the universe" can be opened by him, as a civil servant, where can a small security guard in a restaurant compare.
Before leaving, Li Sui'an personally sent a hundred taels of silver to thank him for his contributions to the Li family over the years.
"When we meet in the future, I can't say that I have to call Lord Lin again."
Lin Qing was very guilty, because now was the time when Ruyifang needed manpower the most, but he offered to resign.
"Don't be cold to me, I've been taken care of in Ruyifang all these years. In the future, Dongjiadan has needs, although he comes to Lin. ”
Li Sui'an didn't take it seriously, just smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I have entered the Lantern Division and worked hard, and I will come back to drink when I have time." ”
A few days later, a lantern night watchman suddenly came to the door, and it turned out to be Song Yan, a former acquaintance.
"The pacification envoy is invited, and the shopkeeper Li, please come with us."
When Li Sui'an saw him, he just didn't know him.
Don't take a small flag and not be an official, it's good to be from the seventh grade.
"Wait a minute, my lord, I'll go change my clothes."
"No need, let's go now, the adults are waiting."
"Let's go, then."
Climb aboard the Night's Watch carriage and gallop all the way.
Passers-by avoided them one after another.
Although Lion Rock could be seen by opening the back door, he never came once.
The carriage went straight up to Lion Rock.
On the hill is a complex of ancient buildings, with a majestic tower in the middle.
The Lantern Division occupies the best part of the city, with a view of the city to the east and a bustling port to the west, with a steady stream of sailboats.
Entering the inside, a water of the Arowana suit.
The official uniform of the night watchman is known as the most handsome official uniform in fighting, which is the same as the ** military uniform.
They use color placket to distinguish grades, iron gray small flag, copper general flag, silver gray hundreds, gold thread thousands. Above the thousands of households, there are different colors of Arowana suits.
Walking all the way, I came to the main hall, where a middle-aged man in a moire was waiting.
Moire.
Obediently, the pacification envoy, the local leader of the lantern division.
"My lord, Li Sui'an has been brought."
Li Sui'an did the same, followed the salute, and knelt on one knee, "Grass people Li Sui'an, see adults." ”
"You go first."
"Yes."
Song Yan respectfully stepped back and turned around to leave when he reached the door.
"Get up, shopkeeper Li, feel free, sit."
"Master Xie."
This pacification envoy is not like a big official with great power in his hands, like a swinger from a family who has read all the world. In every gesture, the wind is light, as if nothing in the world is in sight.
