Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 173: Seal of the Sword Emperor
Chapter 173 The Seal of the Sword Emperor
It is quiet at night.
Zhao Changhe was lying on the bed, fascinated as he watched the battle with the sword guard displayed on the gold foil.
I don’t know if the actual picture is over the top or not.
What was in my mind was that after sending Sisi back to Tang Wanzhuang and explaining her thoughts to her, Tang Wanzhuang's expression of surprise suddenly became so obvious in her always indifferent body.
Just talking about this thinking from the perspective of diplomatic united front is not the brain circuit that ordinary Jianghu people have. This is what a prince does, and he is also a prince who is determined to consider the country.
But Zhao Changhe knew that he just wanted to help Tang Wan with some makeup, and the pressure on his frail shoulders was too much.
People are very strange. The more she insists, the more Zhao Changhe dares to say that he has turned against her and disappeared. However, she is so generous and doesn't say anything, leaving it up to you to decide. Instead, Zhao Changhe appreciates it and feels that he should do something. What.
Sigh.
There is another thing... Although he is disgusted with Sisi's behavior and does not intend to have any more interactions. He is serious about "severing ties", but in fact, his anger is lighter than Sisi imagined, not at all. The headache that often occurred in the past was that of angry outbursts.
It has nothing to do with Sisi, it’s still because of Tang Wanzhuang.
It must be admitted that the practice of Blood Evil Technique has more or less affected his temperament. Zhao Changhe reflected on many of his previous performances and found that he was indeed a bit irritable and irritable.
The tranquility of that song is still effective all day long. I always feel that my heart is like a flat lake with no ripples. No matter it is anger or desire, it is very light.
During the entire process of exploring the mausoleum, and even now, Zhao Changhe felt a sense of detachment, as if he was watching what he was doing, so he observed more carefully. All the details were like the moon reflecting on the water, but he was even less involved in the drama. Not much emotion.
This is peace of mind.
He is slightly angry and has no desire, so forget it. He doesn’t even feel regret, nor does he have the sense of closeness brought by having fought side by side with Qiaoxiao Qianxi. Zhao Changhe always feels that he is watching Sisixiang tonight. Like a stranger, he can use the calmest attitude to make a decision that thinks from the perspective of the empire.
Although this may be an exaggeration and not that outrageous, it is probably a bit like this.
I wonder if Sisi would feel better to get angry and beat her up, or to be like this now?
Maybe this is how Tang Wanzhuang’s calm temperament came about? Has she been looking at everything around her with a detached attitude? So I always felt that my interactions with her were too businesslike.
I’m afraid it’s really difficult for a woman like this to have the urge to fall in love. No wonder she’s twenty-eight years old and doesn’t even think about getting married.
The most serious thing that has broken her defense so far is the magical Tang Buqi...
In any case, her study of music, calligraphy and painting is indeed meaningful and should be continued.
Forget it, don’t think about this for now, and talk to her when we meet tomorrow.
The battle with the sword guard on the gold foil does not have much research value. After all, he is a "zombie" person with little sense. Looking back at this low-sense battle situation, it has little significance for self-correction and improvement. If you want to learn swordsmanship, you can still take a look, but now there is a sword seal.
Zhao Changhe took out the sword seal. It was a small sword that looked like it was made of withered jade. It was made of an unknown material, but it exuded extremely strong sword intent. You could feel all kinds of swords with just a few touches. Such an idea comes to mind, as vast and vast as the ocean. This is a typical seal of inheritance.
It can be noticed that depending on different people’s cultivation levels, different understandings of swordsmanship, different temperaments and styles, each person may get different gains from it and understand different swordsmanship. Take a corner of the magic sword intention.
Sisi said that this can be regarded as the general outline of swordsmanship in the world. It is a bit exaggerated, but it is also in line with the positioning. If she takes it back to the clan and lets everyone learn their own swordsmanship, the clan's strength will be greatly improved. Now it is the same for the Demon Suppressing Division. Tang Wanzhuang can cultivate more swordsman seeds, which is of great significance.
But Zhao Changhe had a problem, and he didn’t need to learn any suitable swordsmanship on his own... He didn’t even want to learn swordsmanship.
He took out the gold foil and put it together with the sword seal.
Gradually, the gold foil shone softly, encompassing the sword seal and Zhao Changhe.
Zhao Changhe suddenly felt like he was "in a dream" again.
The scene in front of me completely changed, as if I was at the top of a steep and dangerous peak, with an old man in white robe sitting cross-legged.
Suddenly he stretched out his hand and pointed, and the shadow of an ancient sword penetrated the sky and went straight thousands of miles away.
With a "boom", a mountaintop in the distance was flattened, mountains and rivers collapsed, and waves surged into the sky.
The sword shadow reappeared, and the angry sea separated, revealing a deep ravine. Wild waves swept from left and right, but could not break through the barrier of the sword energy, and the sea was divided into two halves.
One sword opens mountains and one sword divides seas.
This is just a finger, no one else has moved yet!
Sword King!
In a world where gods and demons were rampant in the last era, there was a being who could claim the throne with a sword!
This is the inheritance imprint he left in the sword seal, embodied by the heavenly book. No need to comprehend or analyze, the Sword Emperor himself will demonstrate it to you!
The sword shadow flew back, and the old man stood up, holding a long sword in his hand, and slowly began to demonstrate the simple sword technique of that day.
Zhao Changhe had seen this sword technique briefly before going to bed. He also tried to use it to fool the sword guards in the mausoleum, but he could only understand its shape. The main reason was that the sword technique embodied by the evil sword made people feel that it was too horizontal and vertical. Simple, no learning value.
But this moment was used by the Sword Emperor himself, and Zhao Changhe felt his heart beat wildly.
What is simple horizontally and vertically...
That horizontal line is like the line connecting water and sky, cutting the boundary between heaven and man.
That vertical line is the distance between the mountains and the sea, cutting through the continental shelves of each continent.
Endless mystery lies within, and all the changes finally merge into the original horizontal and vertical lines.
Is this more than just a sword?
The same goes for knives!
To be simple, to return to nature, is it not like this.
Zhao Changhe suddenly remembered the time when he was a novice in the village. He had turned around and chopped countless times, and smashed the wooden stake countless times, over and over again, but it was still the same.
It's a pity that this is not a basic sword technique, but a highly concentrated form of infinite swordsmanship. Zhao Changhe knew that he could not learn it, understand it thoroughly, or use it.
There is too much accumulation missing. This is something that can only be refined and summarized by learning thousands of sword skills and defeating thousands of opponents.
The Sword Emperor's figure changed, starting from simple sword moves, and gradually began to demonstrate countless different swordsmanship routines, from entry-level to advanced to high-end swordsmanship, hundreds of them.
Zhao Changhe memorized silently. He felt that the process of sorting out these sword skills was in itself a process of learning the principles of martial arts on a large scale, and it was also a process of making great progress in his own sword skills, and he benefited a lot.
…………
Early the next morning.
When Tang Wanzhuang arrived at the guest house, Zhao Changhe had already gotten up early as usual to practice swordsmanship.
Tang Wanzhuang watched quietly for a while, then suddenly said: "Have you ever thought about practicing swordsmanship at the same time?"
Zhao Changhe did not stop using his sword, and answered while practicing: "Maybe it's because swordsmanship in Jianghu is so good? People who can teach me, such as Yue Hongling and you, are all good at swordsmanship, but I have never been able to explore my swordsmanship. Who gave me advice, including this time, the sword seal inheritance is really good, but it’s a pity that I can’t use it much.”
"With your tone, you still have no intention of learning the sword?"
"Well, I bit off more than I can chew. I started late and have already lost too much time than others. I can't waste it on learning more other weapons."
Tang Wanzhuang nodded, continued to watch for a while, and then said: "Sisi is under the mausoleum, instructing the Demon Suppressing Division on the exploration, and has put forward very useful insights on how to re-seal - she has knowledge of the previous era's Things are too familiar.”
"Nothing happened, right?"
"No, she is very honest."
“Don’t believe it, she is so good at acting.”
Tang Wanzhuang tilted her head and looked at Zhao Changhe's expression. Zhao Changhe was concentrating on practicing his sword and had no expression.
Tang Wanzhuang burst into laughter: "Are we really going to end our relationship with her?"
"Of course, I'm not a bitch. Do you think you can still be friends after you cheated me? Just keep things official. Her knowledge and the special items of the Ancient Spirit Clan will be useful to you."
"Just to me?" Tang Wanzhuang's expression almost said: This is your kingdom.
Zhao Changhe did not answer this, but asked: "What restrictions did you give her?"
Tang Wanzhuang smiled: "My spring water ban. Do you want to learn it? You can use it on other girls in the future."
Zhao Changhe felt that Tang Wanzhuang's attitude was a bit strange today, so he finally put away the knife, stepped forward and approached Tang Wanzhuang, looking left and right.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm looking to see if it's Sisi pretending to be."
"I'm just in a good mood." Tang Wanzhuang smiled slightly: "I always want to reward you with something, but I don't know what you want."
Zhao Changhe glanced at her sideways for a long time and suddenly said: "Do you know what makes me most unhappy about you?"
"Huh?"
"It's this tone and mentality of elders looking at juniors, superiors looking at subordinates, that makes me want to break it and see what you look like when you are shy."
Tang Wanzhuang was a little helpless: "This is not a chivalrous idea, it is very bad."
"Who told you that I am chivalrous? I am a gangster." Zhao Changhe said: "If you want to reward me, then I will give you a reward."
Tang Wanzhuang had an ominous premonition and unconsciously took a step back: "What?"
"Continue to teach me the piano today, hand-in-hand." Zhao Changhe said and even added: "I'm not sure if I will touch it on purpose."
Tang Wanzhuang stood there with a weird look on her face.
You... are teasing me?
