Chapter 31 (22)

Jiang Yanchen said: "That's not it. When he trained me, he was very strict. When I was younger, I was like you, and I had a grudge. But when I got older, I realized that it was actually very good. The outside world has spread the word that I am a god, saying that since my debut, I have experienced a hundred battles and have never tasted defeat. After this, it is indeed true. But before I became famous, my skills were still insufficient, and I was sent by the first sect master to fight in many ways. I don't know how many injuries I have suffered, but no one has ever known. The most serious time was to fight with the Heavenly Sword Venerable for the Blood Seal, giving him a knife from the front chest to the back, and fainted on the spot. Later, I didn't know how to get lucky, but I was able to survive. But I had never suffered such defeats, and I was both competitive and vengeful, so I waited until I was able to do so, and went back to him. He didn't take me to heart at first, but in the end, I was still ashamed. Even the knife was around his neck, and he couldn't believe that he would lose to me. It's ridiculous to say, in the two battles between me and the Heavenly Sword Venerable, no one knows about the first fiasco, but the second victory, everyone says that it was I who defeated the Heavenly Sword Lord in one fell swoop. Sometimes the reputation that is not very substantial, and this is how it is piled up. ”

Xuan Shuang smiled dryly: "If he knew that he was defeated by the Seven Evil Saint Monarchs, who would be the number one in the world in the future, he would have died in vain." ”

Jiang Yanchen sneered slightly, although he didn't show it on his face, but after listening to his praise, it seemed to be quite useful. Then his face turned gloomy again, and he said: "You are just a little ghost who has been raised in a honey pot since you were a child and has never really suffered hardships, how can you understand the true meaning of martial arts? It's like you've never experienced an endless decisive battle with your opponent." You and him, only one of the two can live, so all the efforts are to kill the other. ”

Xuan Shuang said: "I don't understand. Isn't the competition just about learning from each other? Why is it so serious?"

Jiang Yanchen said: "That's it, if you only compete with people with this kind of mentality, it is impossible to improve." The real strong man is to climb up by stepping on the corpses of others in the massacre. Let me tell you a story, back then, the First Sect Master had to play a game every few months. Divide the subordinates into groups of two, lock them in a secret room, and let them kill each other. Eventually, one person must fall and the other survive. If the time limit is exceeded and the winner is not decided, then the two will be executed together. In order to survive, they can only do their best to kill each other. Those are all companions who usually practice martial arts together, but at this moment, they are going to become enemies who share the sky. Therefore, the people in the Shadow Cult should not have any feelings. Only ruthlessness can be unfettered at this time. What kind of people are invincible, the strong are invincible. A strong man without emotion is truly invincible. ”

Xuan Shuang said: "But if there is no emotion, only a moving body, wouldn't it be a void to live? Didn't your Sect Master have any warmth at all?"

Jiang Yanchen said: "Yes, he is indeed completely unhuman. In his eyes, we are nothing more than tools that he raised and killed him. Since it is a tool, it is enough to know how to execute orders, and there is no need for any emotion. Even if I am a young master of the sect, every time I play that Shura game, I can't be an exception. ”

Xuan Shuang frowned and said, "Aren't you his most important talent?

Jiang Yanchen sneered: "What is there to be reluctant to? I, the young master, have a little power in the sect, but I can't turn it over to him. The only characteristic is that the training is harsher than others. If I can't even defeat an ordinary subordinate, but kill him, then how can I be his pawn? He has enough confidence in me and can be completely reassured. And there is another unknown reason why he dares to be so confident.

At that time, Zasaktu escaped from the palace with the little prince after the transfer of the contract, and fostered him in a peasant family, in order to use him to vent his anger when he was successful.

Although Nurhachi died early, it is not unthinkable that he had ordered himself and his brother to be killed, and his authority was exerted. At this time and then, now his son has been raised by himself and has become a dog that is dominated by him everywhere and driven by him at will, and finally orders this child to destroy the Qing Dynasty. Nurhachi, as the ancestor of the Kai Dynasty, asked him to see it underground, and the hegemony he created became a cloud of smoke, and the root of all this was due to the actions of his youngest son, so that he still couldn't close his eyes underground.

This plan is ill-intentioned, and Zasaktu has been on the run for many years, always relying on the hatred in his heart and this faith. He never dreamed that there would be a change in stealing beams and changing pillars, and that the child he had painstakingly raised was nothing more than a wild seed of unknown origin. In the end, he fell short step by step and died tragically in a dream he had made up.

When Jiang Yanchen was a child, he didn't know everything about his complex conspiracy, but he heard that the child who was fostered at home was a little prince, and that mysterious person was so interested in him, it must have a lot to do with him. After that, he pretended to be him, followed Zasaktu's side, and sometimes spoke and acted unscrupulously, because he believed that he either really loved himself, or he had other plans for himself, but he would not kill him easily.

But when he first learned martial arts, he was extremely humble and hardworking, and he would not be stupid enough to annoy the sect leader. In the future, when he thinks that his skills are superior and he intends to usurp the throne, his attitude towards him will plummet, and that is another matter.

Now that he is in power, he feels sick when he thinks of the humble times when he obeyed Zasak's words. said lightly: "I said a lot, but I just want you to understand that if you just learn the moves passed down from your ancestors, even if you practice them correctly, it won't be of much use when you play tricks with others in the future." Moves are dead, people are alive, since one move has an endless style, you can derive thousands of moves infinite changes, only when you really fight with the opponent, can you gradually accumulate experience. I don't advocate point-to-point fighting, if you know that you have no worries about your life, you won't do your best to make a move, and even the defense will contain slackness, and when you have to fight to the death, you still remember the inherent routine in your mind, and you will inevitably suffer. The so-called destruction of the cauldron is precisely to cut off all retreats. So I directly asked you to go to the Extinction Villa, firstly, to see how your basic skills are, and on the other hand, just like the methods of the first sect leader back then, let you risk your life at any time. When you understand the infinite burst of potential in your body, you really remember how to use it, and when you face the enemy in the future, you can also use this power freely. ”

Xuan Shuang listened to him as if he didn't understand, nodded lightly, and said, "I don't really understand, and I don't agree with your approach." But it does sound a little reasonable, just now in Anjiazhuang, my mood when I resisted the enemy, and the agility between the moves, is really the same as before...... It was very different from what Master Li felt when he was practicing. It seems that I have also become a master of martial arts, a master who can control the life and death of others. This momentum, to be honest, is still good. No wonder you have one mind, that is, to be the supreme in the world. However, I still have a question......

Jiang Yanchen was very happy when he heard this, although he has been in power over the years, he is often extremely lonely in his heart, and there is rarely the initial humble and nameless, and when he is on a mission with Meng Lin, he has the kind of happiness that comes from the bottom of his heart. At this time, he seemed to have regained some inexhaustible joy, and said: "Very good! It seems that this kind of training has really had some effect." You only need to try it once, and your mind will be clear. Hmm? What doubts, just say. ”

Xuan Shuang heard him say "only once", and immediately thought that in order for him to cultivate himself, there would inevitably be "more times" in the future. He swallowed his saliva, knowing that what he said later would be extremely disappointing, and he had some strange thoughts of "not wanting to disturb his good mood."

But no matter how unbearable many things were, I still had to do them, and asked: "Those people who were killed don't know us, why should they ask people to test my sword with their lives, so that I can make some progress? Is it too selfish for me to practice alone, but to sacrifice so many innocent lives?"

Jiang Yanchen's face really sank, but then he thought that it was at the juncture of his vacillation that more persuasion could make him completely convinced. After a little calculation in his mind, he re-spoke: "Don't talk to me about selfishness or not, there is no need to question this matter." Born between heaven and earth, vainly trying to retreat and have no quarrel with the world, it is simply an unrealistic luxury. A person who is strong in martial arts has his own people who admire him to compete with him, and anyone who is not skilled in martial arts can easily kill him. Zhuang Zhong was killed and injured, and the only way to blame them for not practicing good kung fu and having no way to protect themselves is not to be ashamed. You should think that you yourself are the most noble in the world, and that other people's existence is at best to make you strong. Their life and death are like mayflies for a moment, but now they can make some contributions to you, and they can be regarded as a well-deserved death. The world is filthy, for profit, old friends may turn their faces into enemies at any time, only you will always be good to you, no matter how unbearable your status is, you will not be poor and abandoned. Therefore, there is only one person who is worthy of love. ”

Xuan Shuang said: "Why do you have to fight for the first place in the world? Even if you win, you have to worry day and night about whether you can hold it, and you have to guard against the martial idiots who come to the door from time to time to invite you to fight, and your life is strangely uncomfortable." I still think it's best to live as you want. ”

Jiang Yanchen said: "That's the same truth, only if you are a strong person, it is possible to do what you want." The first in the world, in addition to glory, is also a status symbol, proving that you can command others at will, no one dares to rebel against you, all have to serve you, with your favor as a lifelong honor. When your strength really surpasses heaven and earth, then you don't have to worry about this name changing hands. Because you deserve it. ”

What he said was thoughts that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, and this was the first time he had confessed to anyone. After recognizing Xuan Shuang, his words seemed to have a lot more. He said with enthusiasm, and continued: "Do you think that there is really a so-called genius in the world? There is talent, but you still have to pay a hundred times more hardships than ordinary people. Therefore, if you want to kill me, you have to surpass me, and you have to do more than me. You can have scars, but as long as you cover them with an aura from the outside world and never know them, you can still attract blind reverence. In your eyes, I feel that this seat is invincible and powerful, but I have never seen it, and in order to get this, I have been lower than you, and I have endured it longer. If you lose, you can still get back on your feet. It's different for me, in my eyes, failure means destruction, because I've gambled everything and I can't afford to lose. ”
