Chapter 12: The more strange the weapon, the faster it dies

The rivers and lakes were in chaos, and the court was happy.

Especially their old master, he finally felt that life was a little interesting, watching the Jianghu people fight every day, listening to the news of the Jianghu people killing each other every day, this day is comfortable.

Spread the edict to the imperial kitchen, add more dishes, serve more wine, and have a few more dancing girls, the emperor is in a very good mood, and he can't lose his interest.

Stone Mountain, Nameless Temple, Zen Room.

Senior brother, do you really want to let Ergou go down the mountain alone?

The abbot folded his hands, sat on the edge of the bed, closed his eyes and said, the rivers and lakes have been calm for 20 years, and everyone in the rivers and lakes is greedy for comfort.

Senior brother, why don't you go down the mountain?

The abbot said slowly, this is all fate, and there is no escape. The rivers and lakes are in civil strife, every now and then, there will always be someone who needs to stand up and stir up, let them know that the rivers and lakes are not peaceful, the martial arts are in an emergency, and the people in the rivers and lakes who can be united can be united, except for internal troubles, peace and external worries, so as not to let the rivers and lakes decline.

Then are you really relieved to let Ergou go down the mountain alone?

The mentally weak understands that the rivers and lakes at this time need to be united, and now they are scattered, and the imperial court is eyeing it, and it will die out one day. The people in the rivers and lakes are like running horses, they don't know when the danger comes, they need someone to whip a few whips on the butt from time to time, otherwise, where will there be the motivation to run, and when the horse reaches the end, it is safe, no longer running wildly, there is no need to whip, what will happen to the person who whips the whip?

As long as the second dog doesn't die, he will still come back sooner or later. My life still has a bit of weight. Twenty years ago, it still is. What the abbot said was categorical.

Ergou was very happy.

Because the master and the abbot finally allowed him to go down the mountain.

Ergou was very cramped and asked nervously, Uncle Abbot, do you want to have a name of your own, Uncle Shi, you see, what is the right name for me, the name Ergou has no momentum, or bother Uncle Shi, give me a new name. After speaking, Ergou rubbed his hands.

The abbot glanced at Ergou and said, It seems that you have not understood your own destiny, you don't need a name, and you don't need a loud name.

Ergou, of course, didn't understand why.

The abbot said that one day you will understand.

Master said, Ergou, don't be in a hurry to wander the rivers and lakes. I called you here this time to get you down the mountain to do something. Experience it, and by the way, see if you are suitable for the rivers and lakes.

Whatever the matter, the disciple must live up to the master's instructions. Although Ergou was a little lost, it was also good to think that he could go down the mountain alone to run errands.

The abbot said, "Ergou, you go to Redstone Town to help me get something......

The abbot and the master asked for a while.

Uncle Abbot, I went down the mountain alone this time, and I didn't take care of it, is it more appropriate to bring a guy for self-defense, now the world is so chaotic, and it is inappropriate to go down the mountain empty-handed. Ergou knows that the rivers and lakes are in chaos now, and even the mountain is not peaceful, and it is safer to have a guy next to him down the mountain at this time.

Master spoke first, Ergou, our temple is so small, there is no self-defense guy for you to take, don't think about it.

Without waiting for the second dog to speak, the abbot took the words.

The monastery is a little smaller, but when it comes to self-defense, if you look carefully in the monastery, you can still find one or two pieces.

The second dog was shocked, and then overjoyed.

Ergou thought to himself, could it be that the abbot has some secret weapons in his possession, and this is going to be given to me today. Ergou couldn't control himself a little when he thought of this, and he was going to be happy.

This sudden surprise lasted for no half of the pee, and then it was declared destroyed.

The abbot then said, "Senior brother, you go to the firewood room in the backyard to find a stick for Ergou and take it away."

The second dog's heart is like ashes.

Then the abbot smiled and asked, Ergou, can you play with a sword?

Ergou cheered up and said to his abbot, no.

The abbot said that it would be good to use a sword in the future.

Why do you want to use a sword? Ergou was puzzled.

The abbot said that this was to confuse the other party and not let them know your true identity. The fists and feet are less exposed, so that others mistakenly think that you are a Taoist priest, just play the sword.

Uncle Abbot, I won't do anything? Ergou is also desperate.

The master said next to him, just use it as a stick.

Is this okay? Master, have you used it too?

Master said, "That's not true, I just think that the eighteen kinds of weapons are born from the same root, and they are almost the same to use." It doesn't matter if I haven't used it this way, you can try it, maybe it will be done.

Ergou was completely desperate after hearing this.

Ergou thought about it and asked, Master, is there any special style of weapon that I can use, if I want to confuse the other party, I don't necessarily have to play with a sword.

The abbot looked at Ergou and shook his head, alas, Ergou, you are still too young. Wandering the rivers and lakes, don't use too evil and weird weapons, that's not good, it's easy to die quickly.

Ergou looked puzzled.

The abbot shook his head and said to the mentally weak, "Senior brother, you tell him about it."

The mentally weak master said to Ergou, Ergou, you remember, in the rivers and lakes, anyone who practices strange weapons either has very high martial arts skills, and has unique weapons and unique routines, which makes people unguardable, and I don't know how to deal with it, few people can beat him, and he is a powerful character. Either it's a special scum of kung fu, in order to bluff people with a thing that no one has ever seen to scare others, don't stretch out your hand and don't know, only to find out that it is the degree of passers-by A, B and C. But no matter how high or low the martial arts are, they can't become a big climate, because they are not accepted by everyone, they can't get the permission of the people in the rivers and lakes, and they even want to be ridiculed. But those who can be called chivalrous are famous in the rivers and lakes, and most of the weapons used are also upright, ordinary, not evil, and not weird.

Do you know why there are fewer and fewer people using strange weapons on the rivers and lakes? Master asked Ergou.

Of course, Ergou couldn't answer.

The abbot said that this truth is very simple, they are all dying, what else can they do. Otherwise, there are only eighteen kinds of weapons that have been passed down from ancient times to the present, not nineteen, not twenty. Because all the weapon users except the eighteen are dead. No one will use it, and what kind of strength will it inherit.

After saying these words, the abbot asked Ergou if he understood.

Ergou said, almost understood.

The abbot asked again, "What do you understand?"

Ergou said that the stranger the weapon, the faster it will die.

So what weapon are you going to use?

Juggling the sword!

The second dog went down the mountain, full of spirits, and went straight to Redstone Town.

Hongshi Town is only a dozen miles away from Mud Village, and the two dogs are fast, so they naturally arrive easily.

Bite...... Bite...... While...... While......

There's a blacksmith shop on the inconspicuous corner at the end of Redstone.

When the two dogs heard the sound, they stood in front of the door, and looked at the rows of various weapons of various lengths hanging under the eaves of the blacksmith shop, and the stove in front of the door was still blazing, and an old man was beating the iron that was burning red and white in his hands.

Young man, do you want to build weapons? There are ready-made ones, they look good, they feel convenient, and the price is negotiable. The old man did not lift his head, nor did he stop the work in his hands. Just said a few words to Ergou like talking to himself.

Ergou said, I don't have any eyes.

The blacksmith asked again, what kind of weapon do you want?

I want a sword, a sword that can be used as a stick. Ergou said.

The blacksmith was stunned, the work in his hand suddenly stopped, threw the iron into the hearth, raised his head to look at the second dog, and his eyes were complicated.

The blacksmith asked, "Is it okay to use a whip?"

No way.

Is that okay with a mace?

No way.

These two weapons are much easier to use as sticks than swords.

No. I just want a sword, a sword that can be used as a stick.

The old blacksmith lowered his head, took out the pieces of iron from the furnace with his iron tongs, and continued to beat.

Bite...... Bite...... While...... While......

In the middle of the night, as soon as the hand stopped, the old blacksmith raised his head and said, come and pick it up at this time tomorrow, and you are satisfied...

Bite...... Bite...... While...... While......

The sound of striking iron sounded again.
