sword sentient beings

Chapter 163 Chatting in the Rain
There was a sound of rain, and drops of water dripped down from the entrance of the cave, like a water curtain.The air is filled with the smell of fresh rain and earth, and it is safe and quiet, a good time for small talk and company.

Jiang Shenyi's voice was also very peaceful, without any emotional ups and downs, at most, there was a little doubt.

"Before we reviewed the game, you accused him of choosing the wrong sword elephant. You said that he was not really happy to get the gold ingot, but just to satisfy his desire. Once the desire is satisfied, he will no longer be happy. If it doesn't suit the sword's intention, the sword elephant will decline. But what is not like this? Isn’t the happiness in this world all limited? What about eating and drinking, men and women, people’s great desires? Eating good food will also get tired of eating a day, and beauty will also have a day of getting tired of looking at it, isn’t it? No one can match Joy's sword intent forever?"

Wu Suntong frowned and said, "Isn't there really a drunkard? A good drinker, a lustful person, a liking from the bottom of his heart, a love of his life, willing to die, always liking."

It is true that there are not many such people, but choosing a swordsman is one in a thousand, one in a thousand, why can't you choose such a talent?
Che Sha had another idea, and said: "Or can we set a lofty ambition? For example, be invincible in the world. Only when the goal is achieved can one be truly happy. And every small step towards the goal, such as defeating an enemy, has a small joy. Then To be able to be happy all the time, and to keep going.”

Several people nodded one after another, this is a good move.

As for if the big goal is achieved and you are stagnant—you are invincible in the world, it doesn't matter whether you make progress or not.

If it doesn't work, you can still make a great vow such as "Hell is not empty, and you will not become a Buddha".

Jiang Shenyi even thought of meeting the master Zhang Rong on the road.Nostalgia, like joy, is also a state. It may not be as difficult to maintain as joy, but it is also a part of emotion.Zhang Rong's nostalgia will last forever. One is that his homesickness has become more and more intense with age, and the other is that his hometown has been destroyed and can never be found again. It can only exist in nostalgia.To put it bluntly, the country was unfortunate and the poet was lucky, but this actually helped him.

And if, as Jiang Shenyi said, entrusting his nostalgia to a woman, there will be a big change.Even if it is the seed of infatuation, it will not change until death, but the woman is always alive, if there are some accidents - such as a collapse of moral corruption, then the nostalgia may deteriorate overnight, and it will never be found again.

Tang Zhao pondered and said: "I think it's a bit narrow to only understand the sword intent as my own joy, and it's really too difficult. Joy is an emotion. We all know that emotions are the material for explosive fluctuations. , far less stable than will and mind. If you go around in circles and understand joy as making other people happy, wouldn't it also fit the sword intent of joy?"

This idea comes from the Haechi sword. The sword intent of the Haechi sword is fairness and justice. The judge's understanding is not to maintain justice, but to realize and implement justice. The swordsmanship developed in this way is powerful and consistent.

Of course, the judge's ending is not good, but that's not the problem with the sword elephant in the beginning.There are many problems faced by swordsmen, and there are difficulties at every stage, and there may be a catastrophe at any time.

Jiang Shenyi said: "If it is to help people achieve joy, the sword elephant might be Xingmu? Folding fan? Used by actors?"

Tang Zhao suddenly laughed and said, "Actually, it can also be gold ingots. You don't like gold ingots when you see them yourself. Don't they like it when you give them to others? And there will always be people who like them. There is no problem with the binding of joy and money. As long as you change it slightly From the point of view, when you are a boy who spreads money, this way will go through.”

Wusun Tongwen said in a low voice: "These thieves only want to steal money, when will they spread it? He never thought of this."

Tang Zhao nodded, and said: "That can only be blamed on his lack of education. In fact, the sword's intention is very broad. The sword elephant said it was his own intention, but in fact, he really saw the moment of Wujian's perception, and sometimes he couldn't help it. It's just that The Sword Elephant has been accomplished, so it should be used as the cornerstone, cultivate more, realize more, communicate and integrate with the sword intent more, if something happens, it is just wishful thinking to be lazy and change the Sword Elephant."

Several people nodded, but Che Sha said: "Before you told me that the sword elephant was washed away, you would no longer recognize the original swordsman? You also said that the sword and the swordsman are like a husband and wife, and they can't stand each other's betrayal?"

Tang Zhao said "Oh" and said: "I was talking nonsense to disturb his mind. Actually, I don't know if the sword that has been washed once can match the original swordsman. But it's not right to say that you can't stand betrayal." , too anthropomorphic."

He doesn't know because it's rare.Washing swords usually waits for the swordsman to die to wash off the traces of the previous generation, so as to match the new swordsman. How can a swordsman be washed if he is alive?Which swordsmith would take on such a job?It was all his nonsense that stimulated Ai Xin and made his sword heart collapse further.The metaphor is always straightforward and vulgar, because Ai Xin can only understand it when he says it that way.

To the enemy, there is no need to tell the truth.

Wusuntong nodded and said: "I also heard that swords have no emotions, they are too ruthless, and will not screen swordsmen because of grievances. Maybe he can match the reforged sword again."

Tang Zhao nodded, he also learned in this way.The sword is an existence that is closer to the "Tao". The Tao is mysterious and only suitable for fate.Talking about betrayal and hurting feelings is to underestimate the sword.

On the contrary, the sword elephant is more likely to have feelings, because the sword elephant is jointly created by the swordsman and the sword, and may inherit part of the swordsman's emotions.And it will grow independently, and in the end it may not have the same temperament as the swordsman.If the swordsman betrayed the sword elephant, it might really cause fluctuations in the sword elephant, but it would not affect the sword itself.

At this time, Jiang Shenyi suddenly said: "Maybe I won't recognize it."

The other three looked at him, and Jiang Shenyi said, "Master washed it once before, but it wasn't that the swordsman wanted to change the sword, but that the sword was polluted by the demon, so that the outer layer had to be replaced entirely. A swordsman's sword The elephants stay on the surface, so the sword elephants can only be washed off together.”

"Later, after washing, the swordsman held the sword again, and was no longer recognized by the sword."

Che Sha frowned and said, "Why is this? Even if Jian cares about betrayal, isn't it an accident? Washing away the pollution is not betrayal, so can't you admit it?"

Tang Zhao sighed lightly: "Maybe it's not that I mind betrayal, it's simply that I don't match anymore."

The sword was first recognized by the person who held the sword at that time.After many years of separation, the swordsman's experience, thinking, and temperament have all changed. Although he grew up with the sword, he is completely different after all.Originally, they were in love with each other, but the sword was washed back to its original appearance, can you still recognize the swordsman in front of you?
After leaving for many years, how many people came back as teenagers?

The rain gradually stopped.

Several people packed their things and continued on the road.

After going through a big battle, everyone is a little tired, and they don't want to continue fighting for a short time.Even Jiang Shenyi didn't have the mood to kill all the way through Lingzhou.

It's not that I'm cowardly, it's that I'm tired.

So according to Boss Wan's suggestion, they went to the city to find a "Huiyuan Escort", paid a certain amount of money, and followed the caravan.

Not to mention, this escort agency really has something.Regardless of the expensive price, poor conditions, and poor service, wherever the escort car passed by, all the thieves, big and small, gave way, and arrived in one town after another safely.

In those states and counties that are safer, escort cars may be robbed when going out. In Lingzhou, where thieves are everywhere, escort cars are extremely safe. It can be seen that the world is very interesting.

A few people walk for a while, and take a dart car for a while.The thieves were cleaned up several times intermittently, and after a few days of small troubles, they finally entered Yanzhou.

In Yanzhou, the air is different.

This place is divided and occupied by two warlords, who have been fighting each other for decades, but the imperial court doesn't care about it.Although each warlord only occupies half of the state and is not as powerful as Yunzhou Gaoyuanhou, but after all a grass-roots team is set up, the power may not be as powerful as Baixiong Mountain, which nominally occupies Lingzhou.

Along the way, they saw the scorched earth where the warlords fought, and also saw the battlefield where the two armies confronted each other.The troops sent by the two major forces in Yanzhou have more than one swordsman sitting in the town, coupled with the boundless sea of ​​soldiers, the situation is not something that a few talisman sword masters can intervene.

According to the guidance of the old Jianghu, several people bypassed the canine-toothed dividing line between the two forces, and took another cross-state passage reserved by the tacit agreement of all parties.The two sides of the road can be described as solid walls and clear fields, and there are not many grasses growing on the ground.Poverty can be seen in a few villages.They didn't even go to the village to spend the night in Yanzhou, they just camped beside the road, and they really couldn't bear to disturb them.

On the road, I entered several fortress-like cities, and I could see an official notice for purchasing magic weapons.The price is very high, especially for long-term purchase of weapons.But a few people were not in the mood to make war fortune.

After passing through Yanzhou in a hurry, we arrived at Yongzhou.Yongzhou is the old capital of the Jin Dynasty, and its imperial aura is overwhelming.There is also Xijing, one of the six capitals, which is half of Gyeonggi.This place is peaceful and the land is fertile, so it stands to reason that it can be regarded as a paradise.

It's a pity that the local disaster is extremely serious. In order to maintain local stability, there are a large number of district inspectors and heavy taxes.The common people are afraid of evil, and they evade taxes.In such a huge Xijing, the surrounding area is actually very desolate.

But no matter what, seeing more man-made disasters, but natural disasters, everyone's mood is slightly better.

On the way, Tang Zhao met the district inspector several times.Because the district inspectors in various places are all under the local authority and do not interfere with each other, Tang Zhao's identity is not easy to use, and it is inconvenient to approach.After careful observation, I only feel that the local inspection department is well equipped, even luxurious.And uniform clothing, clothing and the logo of the District Inspection Department-Sword Cutting Yin and Yang.Tang Zhao has been in the job for several years, but only received a similar official uniform, which he has not worn a few times, and it is far less exquisite than others.

The bottom line, this is the bottom line.

There are ten magic caves that are open along the way, but the time limit is getting closer and closer, and the few people wander around more and more carelessly. They walked through Yongzhou for a few days without stopping.

The southwest of Yongzhou borders Kungang, and their destination is in the endless snow-capped mountains of Kungang.
