Chapter 103: What the hell is evil qi?
"What the hell is evil?"
For most people in this world, this may not be a question to think about, after all, killing people will stain the blade with evil qi, which is almost the same as drowning if you jump into a well, and it has become the default common sense of everyone.
Common sense, naturally, is irrefutable, just like two plus two will definitely equal four, just like the leaves will still fall to the ground no matter how they drift, this is something that people are accustomed to, and few people will have doubts about common sense.
But less doesn't mean there isn't.
After all, if you delve into this matter, it may involve the fundamental operation of the world, and this level of information often means a strong force - so at any time, there will be people who are willing to spend time and energy to study this matter and try to explore the essence of this so-called evil qi.
And the best of them is the former Da Chu.
The Great Chu of the past can be called the dynasty with the most perfect application of evil qi, which can also be seen from their way of warfare, the kind of fighting style led by the vanguard general to charge the army into battle, almost completely relying on the evil qi system - perhaps it is because of such a skillful use of sword soldiers and evil qi that Chu people will be more confused by this power.
Why does the blade made of mortal iron condense evil energy? Why is the Divine Blade so powerful? If the evil qi is attached to the blade, then why is there such a thing as evil qi entering the body? What is the so-called evil spirit?
In order to find the answer to the question, Da Chu made a lot of attempts.
Many, many attempts.
"Really...... Bloody. ”
Xiang Rong, who was far away in the big tent of the grassland vanguard army, closed the scroll in his hand and threw it into the brazier.
It stands to reason that this kind of royal secret inheritance left over from the former Great Chu is a priceless treasure for anyone, but after Xiang Rong read it, he still felt that this kind of thing should be burned, at least this one should have been burned - just because even he, a descendant of the Chu royal family, after seeing the records of those related attempts, faintly felt that the reason why this Great Chu was overthrown was somewhat reasonable.
In order to distinguish whether the generation of sword and soldier evil qi is related to the material, the Chu people tried to use a variety of different materials to smash the target to death, and in order to understand whether the reason was in the construction process, the Chu people tried to use pig iron and blades to kill the target separately, so as to make a comparison. In order to explore the principle of the divine weapon blade, the Chu people dismantled hundreds of various divine weapons. In order to study whether the evil qi acts on people or on the blade, the Chu people are even more ......
"Hoo ......"
With a long breath, Xiang Rong drove those images out of his mind.
After all, the sages have said in the books that the gentleman is far away from cooking, and he doesn't need to remember how cruel those processes are, after all, what he needs is only the conclusion that the Chu people finally summed up.
"A strong will to change reality."
This is the Chu people's understanding of evil qi.
What really inspired the Chu people was to start by dismantling all kinds of divine weapons, although most of these divine weapons have killed people, but there are also many blades that have not been stained with blood, but they also have strong power - and this just points out another question of the Chu people, that is, how did Fan Tie become a divine soldier?
Obviously, killing is only a way, but it is not a necessary condition.
Therefore, the Chu people did more attempts.
Only the great Chu who used to be powerful in the world can do this, getting closer and closer to the truth of the origin in countless attempts—and after one attempt after another, the Chu people finally confirmed that the evil spirit of the sword soldiers was not caused by killing, but because of the extreme emotions of the killed when they were dying.
No matter who it is, when facing death, the will is always the most condensed, and after this will is condensed, it will more or less produce some power - perhaps this is why the manifestation of the evil spirit of the sword soldier is often killing, after all, the person who is killed often wants to kill back.
But is that all there is to it?
The sword and soldier qi can make people more powerful, more sensitive, and even make people master inhuman power, but how this power works, the Chu people are still quite confused about this - so in order to continue to explore this root, the Chu people have made more attempts, after all, this kind of power that directly acts on the human body, and can even make people become living immortals, no one can refuse.
Then Da Chu disappeared.
"It's a pity ......"
Thinking of this, Xiang Rong couldn't help but sigh.
On the one hand, he may be lamenting the destruction of the former Great Chu, and on the other hand, he may be lamenting the severance of the road to knowledge—but more importantly, he is lamenting that his books for half a day have been turned in vain.
The overlord halberd inserted in his spine is the essence of the Chu royal family's research on evil qi, in order to create this blade, Da Chu paid a swordsmith, a king, and more than 30 years of crusade to the east and west - but it is a pity that although the predecessors of the Chu State left this divine blade, but did not leave supporting maintenance measures, so that he, a descendant, can only look through the records left by his predecessors and do it himself.
"If it's him...... Ay. ”
Thinking of this, Xiang Rong couldn't help but think of Ruan Shantao again. Unlike him, who relied on the accumulation of the Chu royal family over the centuries to have a capable successor, Ruan Shantao, who could forge the "Founder Sword" with his own will alone, is a real talent.
If this old friend of his, came to read these materials, he must have been able to find a solution, right?
"Not necessarily, though."
Xiang Rong shook his head slightly.
If it was an old friend from the past, he might be able to do it, but judging from his visit a few days ago, his former old friend was still polluted by a group of stupid pigs in the Nanchen Dynasty after all, and he no longer had the appearance of a heroic man in the past.
The so-called sword is covered with dust, and this is probably the case.
Ruan Shantao, who once fought many students and beat everyone to the point where he didn't dare to speak, finally bowed his head to reality.
"What kind of students can you teach like this?"
Thinking like this, Xiang Rong raised his head and looked in the direction of Yanzhou City.
————————
What will Ruan Shantao not be able to do?
In the depths of the arsenal, looking at the strange sword in his hand, Du Chengfeng inexplicably remembered the days ago.
That was when Ruan Shantao turned into a monster, and the remorseful wail resounded throughout Ziyang Mountain—once upon a time, he didn't quite understand why this old man, who usually looked quite literate, actually showed such a style that people couldn't bear to look at.
But now, when he held this square sword in his hand, he suddenly realized.
That's going to be regretted, that's a lot of regret.
"By the way, Lao Liu, I want to ask you something."
Du Chengfeng raised his head slightly.
"Except for the commander of the army, who else in this Yanzhou City can speak?"
"I'll tell you what that drunkard can understand."
didn't wait for Liu Bolun to speak, but Qi Jinshan took the initiative to respond.
"If you talk about ordinary affairs, except for the governor, the one in charge is the master of a state. However, if you ask the military attaché, the ordnance chief will have more say, after all, if the ordnance chief does not agree, no one will be able to get the blade...... But why do you ask this? Do you think that the official position is too small? It doesn't matter, I'll let the master book cooperate with you throughout the whole process. ”
"Nothing else, I'll ask."
Du Chengfeng laughed.
He drew his sword.
