Chapter 209: Bronze Sword

In these days, it is not easy to find people.

A few Jibei villagers were sent out, they were all well-trained children of the Yang family, but no matter how well-trained, they had to know where to go to report the news - they only knew that Du Chengfeng had gone to the Jiankang Imperial City, and they didn't know anything about the rest, so how could they find it?

"The monsters flying in the sky can directly find Mr. Liu, can't you find Mr. Du?"

These were the words of Carpenter Li before they set off, and for the first time the good old man lost his temper at the crowd.

So these Yang family disciples can only go to the Jiankang Imperial City first to see if they can encounter some luck.

But their luck is obviously not very good, just because Du Chengfeng doesn't know where he is at the moment - he only knows that he is in Lijia Village, but he doesn't know which county Lijia Village is in, which state capital this county belongs to, and which state capital this state belongs to.

Patronizing the gray and black fire phoenix, where did he ever think of asking these things, not to mention that he didn't have the heart to ask these things now.

He was studying the two bronze shards.

These two pieces of fragments were still knocked down from the bronze sword, one was picked up by him, and the other was taken out of the stomach of the gray-black fire phoenix, although it was only a fragment, but Du Chengfeng always felt that this thing might also be able to be sharpened - but before that, he had to deal with another thing first.

"Can you get out of here?"

Du Chengfeng turned his head and looked at the gray-black fire phoenix squatting in front of him.

"This is my bedroom, who let you in?"

"Let's have a fight."

The gray-black fire phoenix stalk raised its neck.

"Since I don't want to back down, let's ......"

Poof.

Before the gray-black fire phoenix could finish speaking, the phantom sword in Du Chengfeng's hand had already stabbed it into its stomach.

A sword stabbed into it was not over, Du Chengfeng slashed left and right, and even chopped violently, directly slashing the gray and black fire phoenix to the ground, and even cut it into a slash.

But even after all this, Du Chengfeng's face was still quite ugly.

Just because the moment he put away his sword, this gray-black fire phoenix actually condensed its body again.

"Oh, oh! That's it! Again! Come again! ”

The gray-black fire phoenix's expression became more and more crazy.

"Thoughts can't be killed! Thoughts can't be killed! Come again! Poke your sword in again! ”

“…… Never mind. ”

Du Chengfeng shook his head, after all, he didn't bother to care about this birdman. Although theoretically he could indeed chop this birdman again to vent his anger, this kind of beating method in his eyes looked like rewarding this gray and black fire phoenix.

Of course, theoretically speaking, if he kills a few more times, he may really be able to kill this gray-black fire phoenix, after all, he has seen that after recondensing his body, the fire light on this gray-black fire phoenix is obviously dimmed, but at the moment he has no time to follow the birdman, and he still has more dangerous enemies to face.

"Forget it, if that's what you want."

Using the Illusory Sword to nail the gray-black fire phoenix to the wall next to him, Du Chengfeng picked up the two bronze fragments and put them on the whetstone.

The first fragment was the stubble of the blade, the old blade was obviously unusable, but through the slender edge, Du Chengfeng could still vaguely feel how sharp this thing was at the beginning.

It is not the sharpness of the axe, the angle of the axe is relatively large, which makes the axe stronger and more powerful to chop, and the edge of this knife is closer to the "knife", although it can also be used for chopping, but it is obvious that this relatively thin edge is more conducive to cutting.

Or, rather, cutting meat.

When the fragments of the knife were placed on the whetstone, the ancient and mysterious things that were sealed in the past came one after another.

And Du Chengfeng also vaguely felt something.

Unlike the forging of later generations, this bronze sword was cast in one piece. The bronze knives that had just been polished were not the green rust they are now, but the golden ones, and only the noble warriors were qualified to use these shining golden instruments, which would make them appear more brave and extraordinary.

Yes, utensils.

This bronze knife was originally only used to cut meat.

However, this is not the usual use of cutting meat, but the cutting of sacrifices during sacrifices. Those who gathered around the altar would smear the blood of the sacrifice on their bodies and paint them with sharp ornaments, and the flesh and blood of the sacrifice would be offered to the spirits of the underworld in exchange for powers far beyond the mundane.

"In exchange? Not a prayer? ”

Du Chengfeng vaguely sensed something, but that hint of inspiration was too weak.

But he knew at least one thing, that is, these people around the altar, that is, the so-called "Yin people" in the past, when dealing with ghosts and gods, they did not treat the ghosts and gods with the attitude of believers - this is not so much an offering as a transaction, the Yin people offer sacrifices, and the ghosts and gods have to give back.

"Is there really such a thing as a ghost?"

Du Chengfeng always felt as if something was wrong, after all, if there was such a thing as ghosts and gods in this world, he didn't know it at all. At least from his own experience, he really didn't find anything in this world that could be called a ghost.

If there is really a ghost or god in the world, let alone him, even if the nameless giant is already happy to run to fight, how can he suffocate himself to death in the imperial tomb?

But if ghosts and gods don't exist, then what he sees next is completely inexplicable.

After the sacrifices were made, these Yin people who performed the sacrifices actually gained strength.

The inexplicable power surged in the patterns on the surface of these Yin people, which made the already strong Yin warriors even more fierce and fierce, and after gaining this power, these Yin warriors danced wildly and shouted at the altar, as if thanking the ghosts and gods for their blessings.

But in Du Chengfeng's view, how does this look like a warm-up exercise before doing it.

And things turned out to be as he expected, after these warriors finished dancing, they went to take out the spears, and they looked like they were in groups, obviously going out to cut people.

And the picture brought by this bronze fragment also ends here.

"Hmmm......"

Du Chengfeng, who regained consciousness, frowned for a while, and he vaguely felt as if something was wrong.

Everything seemed to be fine, just the normal pre-battle prayer and then the expedition, and as for the killing of an unlucky ghost to sacrifice the flag, there was still the same, which was nothing strange - but the inspiration that flashed through his mind always reminded him that there was something else hidden in this picture.

Thinking like this, Du Chengfeng picked up the second bronze fragment.

The second bronze fragment is closer to the back of the knife, and there are relatively few blades left on it, and if you want to polish this kind of thing, it is likely that you can't use a whetstone - fortunately, Du Chengfeng is no longer a fledgling, he is now more complete, and after realizing that this thing is not easy to touch, he simply took out a deerskin from his arms and changed it to wiping.

And this time, what he felt was closer to the "human" part than the ancient mystery just now.

This picture should be after the expedition, the strong Yin soldiers returned victorious, but there will always be a dead and wounded in the war, after all, there are still two Yin soldiers who are unfortunately damaged, and they can't survive now.

"We brought them back intact."

The warriors laughed and cried, and the joy of victory made them smile, but no matter how heavy the joy was, it could not dilute the sadness in their hearts.

Dead is dead after all, it is impossible to come back to life, even the ghosts and gods in the underworld cannot make them continue to live.

But the spirits can keep them with the warriors.

"Please, priest."

"Hmm."

The priest with the bronze sword nodded, then took off his robes, revealing a body that was stronger than the warriors.

The strong priest carried the two corpses and led the warriors into the ancient valley, where several huge furnaces were burning day and night, and after directing the warriors to select two large baskets of ore, the priest asked the warriors to throw the ore into the two furnaces.

Immediately afterwards, the priest threw the two corpses into the furnace.

The heat burned the corpses completely, mixed with the molten metal from the ore, and they were indistinguishable from each other.

Accompanied by a long and intricate incantation, the hot molten liquid was poured out and poured into the prepared tools.

"You come, you come."

When the melt had cooled completely, the priest chose two men from among the warriors, with whom they had the deepest friendship and the saddest of the two deceased warriors.

After calling them out, the priest uncovered the tools and handed them the blades of the axes that had been forged inside.

"Go, bring your brothers back, polish your brothers well, and remember to wipe them every day...... They will continue to fight with you, they are watching you and do not let them down. ”

"Thank you!"

The warriors hurriedly took the precious treasure, and then offered a portion of their own booty as a price for the priest's hand.

Of course, in order to reward the spirits who had done all this, they also offered sacrifices.

"This ......"

After watching all this, Du Chengfeng finally found a little familiar feeling.

Isn't this just forging a slash soldier?

It's just that unlike what he thought, it wasn't about first forging a blade and then contaminating it with evil aura by killing people - the Yin priest's behavior was reversed, and from the very beginning of the casting stage, the corpse was thrown into the furnace, mixed with molten metal, and finally poured into the shape of the blade.

The difference is huge, even huge, both in terms of technique and thinking. The most important thing is that this Yin priest used corpses, not living people, but judging from the results, the fierce sword soldiers were still made.

"How is this done?"

Du Chengfeng felt that his common sense had been challenged again.

But he was used to this kind of thing, after all, his common sense was not challenged once or twice, and whenever he thought he had mastered some unbreakable truth, this hellish world could always bring him a little new surprise.

However, he was still a little skeptical, he always felt that the blade created by this method must be very different from the evil sword soldiers he had seen before.

And in the next picture, he did see those differences.

The difference is that the fierce sword soldiers made in this way are more ferocious and more powerful. Unlike the later fierce sword soldiers he had seen, these Yin people's weapons forged from the bones of their companions had incredible power from the beginning, and the Yin soldiers wielding these blades were like tigers descending from the mountains, destroying cities and villages.

As for why Du Chengfeng was able to see this, of course, it was because the priest holding this bronze sword also participated in the battle, and after realizing that the front line had lost manpower, the strong priest tied the knife to the pole and made it look like a big axe, and the appearance of wielding the big sword to slash the enemy was more brave than those warriors.

"Give me all your lives!"

While shouting like this, the priest slashed at the surrounding human bodies, and with this terrifying killing, those blood and qi actually gathered on the priest's body, flowing in the sharp patterns on the priest's body, injecting more power into his already strong body.

For a time, the priest became more and more courageous.

And beside this priest, the other warriors are also doing the same thing, they wantonly slash everything around them, slaughtering those enemies, just a moment's effort, this ancient city with a complete city defense structure has been slaughtered, this is the result of daring to harm the Yin warriors.

So, how many of these Yin warriors are there?

Five people.

Including the priest himself, the Yin people only used five people to kill an entire city.

This is the most accustomed tactics of the Yin people.

Platoon? No, you don't. Fierce generals? Nor is it required. The really strong don't need to drag themselves down with the weak, they can kill everything themselves.

But in Yin's opinion, this is still not strong enough.

"If I could be a little stronger, I could do this little thing alone."

This is the sigh of the priest of Yin after the bloody battle, it is obviously a big victory, but he is still blaming himself, and he is still blaming himself for not being strong enough.

"But it's okay, just a few more rituals."

The priest sighed.

"As long as I complete seven more rituals, I will definitely be able to do it, and as long as I complete seven more rituals, I will become a real ghost...... Unfortunately, I still know too much. ”

Do you know too much?

Why do you say that?

Du Chengfeng's whole person was suddenly stunned.

Inspiration, which had been elusive, suddenly became clear.

The first more of the increased amount will be delivered, and the second more of the increased amount will be in the morning.

Also: Thank you for your recommendation votes and monthly passes, and thank you for your encouragement and support.

I'm going to dinner, and everyone is going to rest early.
