Health Martial Saints: Start With Soaking Your Feet

Chapter 42: Forty-two: The Peaceful Envoy

Mu Zhou asked: "Is it the intruder last night? How many people did you kill?"

"……one."

Mu Zhou smiled, poured himself a glass of wine, and said something nonsensical, "Brother Li, do you still remember what I said when I taught you sword skills?"

Li Suian thought for a long time, "Which sentence?"

"'I hope you can use this knife technique to save more people in need', and Brother Li's response at that time was also very interesting."

Li Suian didn't understand, "Is this necessarily related to Dao Gang's mutation?"

Mu Zhou said in a leisurely manner: "I believe Brother Li has already noticed something. You are amazingly talented in the way of the sword. You can master the basic sword arts as soon as you learn it, and you can become good at it once you practice it. Yue Dao Gang is progressing slowly."

Li Suian thought to himself, where do I have any talent for Dao of the Sword?

Regarding what Mu Zhou said, he didn't want to admit it, but it was the truth.

The reason why one should focus on basic sword techniques when practicing swords now is because the proficiency of Zhanyue sword technique increases slowly. In fact, at the very beginning, he worked much more on the latter than the basic sword art.

Before, I only thought it was an advanced knife technique, so it was so time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Now it sounds like that doesn't seem to be the case at all.

I just heard Mu Zhou continue to say: "This is still the early stage, and the more difficult it is to practice the Moon Zhan Dao Gang at the later stage. Do you know the fastest way to practice the Moon Zhan Dao Gang?"

"Isn't it step by step?"

"It's murder."

Li Suian was at a loss for words.

"After a person dies, the energy of the body does not dissipate immediately, but disintegrates into the integration of Qi and blood. It will disappear in the world with the passage of time. The Zhanyue Saber technique has a unique feature, which can The qi and blood before death tempered the knife. The more people you kill, the stronger the knife. If you can't resist the temptation, you may become a murderer in the future."

"However……"

Mu Zhou hesitated to speak.

"But what?" Li Suian asked impatiently.

I hate the Riddler the most.

"You will kill a lot of people in the future. But when you push Dao Gang to great success by killing people, you will not be far away from death."

Li Suian felt a little resentful, "Is there a fatal flaw in the sword technique?"

"No! Someone will come to claim his life. He will devour your sword gang, make your sword gang a part of his sword gang, and eventually become a stronger him."

"Who?"

Mu Zhou showed melancholy, "It's my master, known as Yuesou."

"Yuesao... Yuesao?"

Isn't this a furnace? Fatten up before slaughtering? What about raising pigs?

Li Suian was a little annoyed, the name "Yuelao" was completely inconsistent, shouldn't it be called the sword demon or something.

"So you came to the Northland to escape for your life?"

"Yes and no."

"How strong is your master?"

"Very strong, so strong that I can't guess. I'm just one of his many disciples. I know what you think in your heart. I didn't come to the Northland because I wanted to avoid the master. The master does not restrict the freedom of the disciples. Freedom does not prohibit the outflow of sword skills. If you meet a good talent, you will even take the initiative to send sword skills. But as long as you use this knife skill to achieve great success by killing people, he will sense it. Then you will travel thousands of miles away. Find you. No matter where you hide, he will find you and hack you to death."

"Back then, I had other reasons and had no choice but to take the initiative to ask Master to teach me. My aptitude for the Dao of the Sword is not good, and it took me so much hard work to be able to bestow this Dao of the Sword."

"Brother Li, don't worry, if you just use the Zhanyue Dao to kill ghosts, evil spirits, and monsters, nothing will happen. The power of the Zhanyue Dao is absolutely worth it. And you only killed one person , After a long period of time, using your own strength to temper repeatedly, when the strength of the sword exceeds the current level again, the blood will naturally fade away."

Li Suian is skeptical about Mu Zhou's remarks.

But after knowing that it could be resolved, I was relieved.

"Brother Mu, you should have told me sooner?"

Hearing his complaint, Mu Zhou smiled wryly and said, "At that time, I wanted to sell knives instead of saber skills, and you were the one who pestered me to learn saber skills. And if you don't experience it yourself, you may not believe me no matter how much I tell you. .In case you are a person whose will is not firm, I told you in advance, but it will make you take the initiative to go astray. I am afraid that it will be hard to get back, and it is really my fault."

Hearing this explanation, most of Li Suian's frustrations dissipated, "Okay! I was mistaken by my cleverness, so I won't be able to kill people with a sword in the future."

"I hope so. Although I didn't see that person last night with my own eyes, I can feel his vigor from a distance. The state of the peak body quenching is not far behind. The strength is far superior to yours, but you use the moon-chopping knife Gang, defeating the strong with the weak, easily beheading him. Let me ask, how many warriors in the world can resist the temptation to quickly upgrade the Moon Zhan Gang with such a powerful saber technique in hand."

Li Suian looked serious, "You are right. Zhanyue Daogang is indeed very powerful and has helped me a lot. If I am in a dangerous situation and need to increase my strength to save myself, I may not be able to control myself Don't kill people to increase the power of the sword."

In the battle last night, the biggest hero was naturally Shun Dun, and he didn't make any excuses.

After all, spending money to buy such a knife technique is naturally a huge profit. If he puts on a look of wanting to be greedy again, he will be a little clueless.

"It's good if you can understand. Brother Li is free, so why not read more Buddhist scriptures and Taoist books."

"Buddhist scriptures, Taoist books? Okay, I'll write it down."

...

Back home, Li Suian had a bronze token in his hand.

A ghost head emblem is engraved on the token.

[Communication order. Identity: ghost. Merit value: thirty-five. 】

Ghost?

After hastily disposing of the body last night, this thing was found from the man in black.

Looking left and right, I didn't figure out which organization's token it was.

But since this thing can produce text bubbles, it must be a magic weapon.

He remembered that person's weird body skills and martial arts last night, the inheritance should not be weak.

I felt a little uneasy in my heart.

Flipping the bronze token into the empty nest, he calmed down and continued to practice.

Sudden encounter with a villain last night made the atmosphere in the mansion tense.

Fu Qingnian also lost the excitement of winning the crown at the previous wine tasting party. After finishing the work at hand, he found Li Suian who was practicing swords.

"Lin Qing is leaving?"

"Yes. He has passed the recruitment assessment of the night watchman, and he can become a regular as long as he has enough military merit."

After Li Suian understood the situation, it was hard to persuade him to stay, after all, the other party was going to pursue his own martial art.

Moreover, the road to the "end of the universe" can be opened by him. When he becomes a civil servant, there is nothing comparable to a small security guard in a restaurant.

Before leaving, Li Suian personally presented hundreds of taels of silver as a thank you for his contributions to the Li family over the years.

"When we meet in the future, I might even call him Master Lin."

Lin Qing is very guilty, because now is the time when Ruyifang needs manpower the most, but he bids farewell.

"My boss, don't look down on me. I have been taken care of in Ruyifang these years. If my boss needs anything in the future, just come to Lin."

Li Suian didn't take it seriously, but just smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "When you enter the Lantern Division, you should work hard, and come back for a drink when you have time."

A few days later, a night watchman from the Lantern Division suddenly came to call for him, and it turned out to be Xiaoqi Song Yan, a former acquaintance.

"Master Zhenfu envoy, please come with us, shopkeeper Li."

When Li Suian saw him, he acted as if he didn't know him.

Don't use a small flag to be an official. Anyway, you are from the seventh rank.

"My lord, wait a moment, I'm going to change clothes."

"No, let's go now, my lord is waiting."

"Then let's go."

Climb into the night watchman's carriage and drive all the way.

Passers-by and horses gave way one after another.

Although the Lion Mountain is just outside the back door of his house, and he can see it through the windows of the backyard, he has never been there once.

The carriage went straight up to the Lion Rock.

There is a group of ancient buildings on the mountain, with a majestic tower in the middle.

The Lantern Division occupies the best location in the city. To the east, you can overlook the scenery of the whole city, and to the west is the bustling port, and there are many sailing boats coming and going in and out.

Into the inside, a dragon fish suit of water.

The official uniform of the night watchman is known as the most handsome official uniform for fighting, and it is the same as the Japanese military uniform.

They use the color of the lapel to distinguish the ranks, the iron gray small flag, the copper color general flag, the silver gray hundred households, and the gold thread thousand households. Above the thousand households, there are dragon fish suits of different colors.

Walking around all the way, they came to the main hall, where a middle-aged man in a cloud pattern cloak was waiting.

Moiré.

Obediently, Zhenfu envoy, local leader of Lantern Division.

"My lord, Li Suian has been brought here."

Li Suian followed suit, saluted, and knelt down on one knee, "Grassman Li Suian, see you sir."

"You go first."

"yes."

Song Yan backed away respectfully, turned around and left when he reached the door.

"Get up, shopkeeper Li, be more casual and sit down."

"Thank you, my lord."

This appeasement envoy is not like a high-ranking official with the power to kill and kill, but like a swinger from a family who has read all the world's affairs. Every gesture was calm, as if nothing in the world was taken seriously.
