Gu Xiao's head was still hazy, and he looked at his palm. This simple short blade was lying quietly in his palm. Gu Xiao put down the short blade tightly.
"Young master, you have been sleeping for three days. Neither the master nor I can break the short blade from your hand, so I have to let you hold it and have a good rest. I will follow the master to your residence. By the time I arrive, you have already He is like a madman who refuses to recognize his relatives and keeps attacking his master." Lao Li was still frightened at this moment.
"Have I been comatose for three days?...I had a fight with the master? But I don't remember anything." Gu Xiao looked at Gu Jianyi and saw that Gu Jianyi was not angry because he did it. He was looking at him with a smile. .
Gu Jianyi said: "When I arrive, the true energy in your body has already overflowed from the Dantian. If it is not drawn out of the body, the two true energies will cause you to explode and die. I have no choice but to fight with you to draw out the true energy from your body. But you had lost your mind at that time, and the murderous intent was in the sky, so I could only knock you out, and then I could try to use the true energy to guide the murderous intent out of your body."
"Disciple is in trouble again." After hearing what his master said, Gu Xiao first opened the quilt and wanted to get out of bed to salute.
Gu Jianyi stretched out his hand to stop Gu Xiao and said, "Don't feel guilty. You were also affected by the murderous aura of this short blade at that time. But where did you get this thing from?"
Seeing that his master had no intention of blaming him, Gu Xiao frowned and tried hard to recall the events of that day. He told the story of chasing Ta Xue, burying Ta Xue's relatives, and how Ta Xue presented the weapons. He also told the story of how he was pulled by a short blade that day. All the scenes he saw when he entered the illusion were described to Gu Jianyi.
When Gu Jian heard about this situation, he couldn't help but sigh, while Lao Li beside him was speechless at this time, thinking that this young master had such an earth-shattering meal of barbecue.
Gu Jianyi thought for a moment and then spoke to Gu Xiao: "According to the illusion you mentioned, I may know something about short blades."
"Master, do you know the origin of this blade?" Gu Xiao ignored his weak body and became interested again, completely forgetting that he was almost killed by this short blade.
Gu Jianyi said: "I thought this thing was something evil, but after bringing you back to the thatched cottage, I used my true energy to explore your inner breath, and found that your true energy was surrounded by the murderous aura of this blade, but it didn't look like something evil. Something has invaded your heart, and this murderous aura should be the remnant of the master in front of this blade. If the person you get it is not recognized by this murderous aura, he will definitely go crazy, and it should be like me fighting with you, no, saying that I am fighting with you. , instead of saying that you are fighting with this blade, this blade is always protecting you, it must be that it recognizes you."
"Master said that this short blade is fighting with you?" Gu Xiao was shocked. Could it be that this short blade has become a spirit?
Gu Jianyi seemed to have noticed what Gu Xiao was thinking, and said: "This short blade is not as intelligent as a demon, it is just the residual murderous intention of the previous owner. When you and I meet again, it will be like a martial arts master cherishing each other after a few moves. Don’t worry, even though the murderous energy of this blade has entered your body, it can still be used by you. If you practice it properly, it will be your help, but you should not rely too much on it, otherwise it will cause it to bite you back."
Gu Jianyi paused for a moment, looked at Gu Xiao's face with worry, and continued: "Don't worry, you might as well give it a try. When you breathe in, you can release the lingering murderous aura. Come and see?"
After hearing what the master said, Gu Xiao relaxed and closed his eyes to his luck dantian. He felt that the Qing Yi Jue's true energy was like water pouring into all the acupoints. Although he was weak at the moment, his eyesight and ears were sharp and he could sense within ten feet. Living things, and after this Qingyi Jue Zhenqi, there is an ink-like Zhenqi that follows, but it is filled with a completely different feeling from Qingyi Zhenqi. This ink-colored Zhenqi is like the Hell of Hell, where no living thing can approach, like Mo Zhenqi gradually wrapped around the cyan Zhenqi, and the two strands of Zhenqi came out simultaneously.
At the beginning of Gu Xiao's luck, Lao Li couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that Gu Xiao's energy was full. But suddenly Gu Xiao's aura suddenly changed, and a killing intent filled the thatched cottage. Lao Li felt that his whole body was cold, as if there were countless invisible blades surrounding him. The whole body made him unable to move, and cold sweat gradually appeared on Lao Li's forehead and gathered in drops, falling down his cheeks.
Lao Li was now out of breath from this murderous aura, and suddenly felt a warmth spreading all over his body. Looking back, Gu Jianyi's sword finger was already on his shoulder without knowing it. It turned out that Gu Jian saw Lao Li trapped by murderous intent and helped him out.
Gu Xiao felt the lingering murderous energy. If he practiced Qing Yi Jue, his true energy was like an endless sea of tranquility. The murderous energy would be as turbulent as the ocean waves. After Gu Xiao circulated his true energy for a week, he felt murderous intention suddenly arise in his heart. Feeling agitated, he exhaled and adjusted his breath to disperse the two strands of Qi.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Jian looking at him solemnly, while Lao Li on the side looked at him as if he were a ghost.
"Uncle Li, what's wrong, you're looking at me like this." Gu Xiao was puzzled.
"Just now I was almost defeated by the young master's murderous intent. Fortunately, the master came to help." Old Li said to Gu Xiao with lingering fear.
"Master, tell me about the origin of this short blade. Do you know who made it and whose weapon it is?" Gu Xiao was secretly shocked that this murderous intent was so sharp. Li Shuruo was in the world, and his 'three swords' were also He could be among the masters, but according to what Uncle Li said, he was trapped by the murderous aura and couldn't move. He couldn't help but want to know the origin of this short blade.
As soon as Gu Jian withdrew his sword finger, Lao Li didn't want to try to feel the murderous aura all over his body again, so he said to the master and apprentice: "Master, young master, Lao Li doesn't want to get involved anymore. I will go to the room and take the medicine." The Nine Transformations of the Golden Spirit heals internal injuries.”
"You go ahead, I will help you heal your injuries later." Gu Jianyi said.
When Lao Li closed the door and walked out, Gu Jian reached out and picked up the short blade in Gu Xiao's hand, looked at the short blade like ink, and said slowly: "Our continent, China, has been in constant disputes since ancient times. In ancient times, the sky won over the dynasty. The soldiers and horses are strong and they want to dominate the world, but many small countries don't want to sit back and wait for death. The prince of one of the countries spent all the power of the country to find a famous knight from ancient times. This man is good at using double blades and has extremely high martial arts. To get this man, the prince did not hesitate to do anything. A famous person turns a cow into a horse, in the name of saving the people, I hope this famous person will win."
"In order for the people not to suffer from the war, this prince is kind-hearted." Gu Xiao couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
Gu Jianyi smiled and said: "If we are for the people, we should talk about peace. If we are really defeated, we can also let the people surrender. If we win against a strong country and a weak country, and the assassination is successful, we will definitely get monstrous revenge and massacre of the people. In the final analysis, these kings are just for their own selfish desires."
Gu Xiao thought for a moment and realized what Gu Jianyi said: "Yes, what about that hero? How did he do it?"
Gu Jianyi continued: "Of course the famous knight knew about the prince's selfish desires and didn't want to pay attention to it. However, the prince treated him with great courtesy and was willing to be a bully. The famous knight also felt the kindness of encountering him. So he smiled happily and accepted the assassination. .”
"How can you assassinate the monarch of a country and never come back, and the famous hero just smiled and agreed?" Gu Xiao sighed, this ancient famous hero was indeed a hero of his generation, and when faced with an act of life and death, he actually agreed so calmly.
"After the famous knight accepted the assassination and won the important matter, the prince's famous knight was good at using double blades and spent countless money to search for magic weapons all over the world, just for the famous knight to hit him with one blow. Finally, the emperor paid off, and he was in one of the kingdoms. I have found a famous swordsmith, and I am willing to win the sword for him." Gu Jian turned over the ink blade in his hand and recounted this ancient incident.
"The famous smith, in order to make a weapon to stab the enemy, ordered his people to search all over China and found two pieces of meteorite iron from the sky. The famous smith was very happy and reported it to the prince. He ordered people to dig out Xishan Mountain, connect it with the river, and take hundreds of iron yings to cast them. The huge furnace is used to calcine the meteorite and iron in the furnace." Gu Jian looked at Gu Xiao and listened with interest, and put the big cloak that had slipped on his body back on Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao was entranced by what he was listening to and couldn't wait to ask: "Then, is it finished?"
"How can the meteorite iron from the sky be so easily melted into ordinary things? I saw that the meteorite iron had been in the giant furnace for three days and three nights without melting at all. So the master forger reported it to the prince. The prince was furious and ordered the master to do it for ten days. The sword that can stab you is forged. If it fails, the three tribes of Yi will be killed. The famous master took the order and left, crying and kneeling under the steps of the famous hero, hoping that the famous hero would save his family. The famous hero said: "You go away, I have a way to help you succeed." '. After the master caster left, he ordered the accompanying craftsmen to burn a thousand pounds of charcoal for seven days and seven nights. The iron in the furnace was still not damaged at all. Just when the master caster was desperate, a famous hero came to visit. The master caster was overjoyed and attracted a lot of attention. The famous hero looked at the furnace. He saw that the famous hero did not even take a look at the giant furnace. He climbed up to the high platform alone, bowed to the sky, and said: "The world is in chaos and the people are suffering. I am sent as an envoy to save the people of the world. How pitiful God is. If God has pity on me, and today I use my blood as a guide, please help me to make a weapon.' After the hero said this, he took a sharp weapon to cut the blood and put it into the furnace. In an instant, the wind and clouds surged, the color of the sky and the earth changed, the gods in the sky came to the world, and the rain master swept, The Thunder God struck the coffin; the dragon held the stove, and the Emperor of Heaven filled the charcoal. A moment later, the meteorite iron from the sky and hundreds of iron heroes were soaked and melted into molten iron." At this moment, Gu Jianyi seemed to be fascinated by the heroic spirit of the ancient heroes and the scene of the immortal sword-forging. Suoran continued.
"When a famous smith saw that the molten iron had melted, he ignored the appearance of a god. He hurriedly ordered people to pour molten iron into the tool, and he forged it with his own forging hammer. He stayed awake for three days and finally made two short blades, one ink and one white. The magic weapon was completed. , the famous swordsmith looked up to the sky and laughed three times and died." Gu Jianyi told Gu Xiao this ancient legend.
Gu Xiao's blood boiled with excitement at this moment, and he sighed: "Using blood as a guide, gods to help, and life to become a sword, how magnificent this is. What happens after that..." Before Gu Xiao finished speaking, he suddenly thought of his dreamland In the scene I saw, could it be that the robed figure was the famous ancient hero?
Gu Jian opened his mouth and said: "What you think is right, you were pulled into the illusion by this blade, and what you saw was the scene of the famous knight from ancient times stabbing and winning. If you hadn't told me about the illusion I saw, I would never have thought of it. "
"But...but the winner of the country is not a person with high martial arts skills. I vaguely remember the scene in the illusion. The knight was about twenty steps away from the winner, but the winner only lost his sleeve. Regardless of whether it was Master, even if it is me, the winner will die with one blow." Gu Xiao murmured to himself, wondering why the assassination failed despite the magic weapon and being ten steps away.
Gu Jianyi's eyes were full of respect at this moment, and he said: "Now that he has obtained the magic weapon, the prince used the head of his enemy as a reward for his audience. He also hid the black and white swords in the scroll of the map of the country's passes, urging the famous knight to assassinate him. Ying, before going out as an envoy to win the country, at the bank of the national water, the prince, hundreds of officials and the famous knight's friends were all dressed in white to see off the famous hero. The famous hero's friends were building and singing, and the famous hero was singing "The wind is rustling, the water is cold." "When a hero is gone, he will never come back." The two people's sad songs made heavy rain pour down in the clear sky instantly, like the sky shedding tears. Everyone was in tears, and then the famous hero left freely and carelessly. After more than a month, the famous hero stabbed News of Ying's failure and death came, followed by Ying's cavalry, and then the country was destroyed, and the prince also died in the rebellion. But what was unexpected was that after Ying's cavalry destroyed his country, he did not hurt the people. one person."
"Could it be that?..." Gu Xiao seemed to have realized something and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Gu Jianyi smiled brightly and said: "You are right. When the prince first asked for the famous hero, the famous hero was already known. The world was divided and the princes attacked each other. It was the common people who suffered. So what if I killed the winner? The people in the world are still suffering from the war. If the winner unites the world, then the people can live in peace. However, he has received the favor of the prince Zhiyu. He is in a dilemma between loyalty and righteousness. The famous knight has no choice but to assassinate Ying to repay the favor of the prince with his life. The assassination failed. It can achieve great justice in the world, so it can be said to be the best way to achieve both ends." After saying that, Gu Jianyi handed the black short blade in his hand to Gu Xiao's hand.
Gu Xiao was disappointed, with a respectful expression on his face, and looked at the short blade in his hand: "What a man, a hero of the country." Then he wiped the tears from his eyes and asked: "Master, is this blade the weapon of a famous hero?"
"In order to commemorate the famous forger, the two short blades were named after Mrs. Xu. Later, in order to commemorate the great hero and righteousness of the famous hero, the white blade was still named after Mrs. Xu, and the ink blade was named after Mrs. Xu. The name of the song that the famous hero sang that day is: Yishui, the blade in your hand should be the Mo blade in the famous hero's double blade, Yishui." Gu Jianyi said.
Gu Xiao stroked Yi Shuihan in his hand and said to himself: "What a handle of Yi Shui, what a tragic story. Am I really worthy of using such a righteous weapon?"
