In the Blade

Since he sharpened the Chu people's Overlord Halberd, Du Chengfeng has always had a question in his mind.

According to his original rough understanding of evil spirits, the fastest way to become stronger in this world is undoubtedly to kill people, accumulate evil spirits on the weapons through killing people, and then obtain this extraordinary power by holding the weapons - but according to everything he has observed recently, this is not the only way.

Whether it is the tomb robber's persistence in cultivating immortals in the Taiyin Mountain Temple, or Liu Bolun's persistence in brewing private wine, and of course the most obvious, Ruan Shantao became a strong man by studying by himself, these people all took a different route.

As recorded on the Chu people's halberd, a strong and firm will can even change reality.

So the problem lies here.

Since a strong and firm will can already change reality, why do people still need to use weapons? Everyone just thinks of a way to cultivate some magical spells that can do everything, and then use spells to bombard them, isn't it?

But it is obvious that the people in this world did not take this path. Do they really not like it?

Du Chengfeng always felt that there must be some other reasons that he didn't know.

Moreover, the fact that killing people can make you stronger also has some problems in itself - in the past, he was only considered ordinary strong, he had never really practiced anything, and his martial arts were relatively sparse, so he hadn't realized this, but now...

If he killed someone with his bare hands without a weapon, how should this evil spirit be calculated? Is it integrated into a certain weapon? Or is it accumulated in his body?

I don't know, Du Chengfeng is not very clear about the problem here.

Obviously, he has a lot of skills and has some understanding of this world, but as he knows more and more, he always feels that he knows less and less.

But if he wants to continue to become stronger and really get the skills to make a living, he must understand these things.

Of course, although theoretically, he could kill a few people at any time to try, there was always something wrong with using human lives for experiments. After all, he was still a peace-loving person, not a mad scientist. No matter how much he wanted to explore the source of power, living experiments were still a bit contrary to his moral concepts.

"So this kind of thing depends on fate. What if there is someone who needs to be killed?"

Although Du Chengfeng also wanted to figure out what was going on between the evil spirit, will, and even the weapons, he was always open-minded about the process.

After all, this world may lack other things, even some of them are immoral, but there is never a shortage of people who seek death.

And right now, there is just such a person.

"So you want to kill the emperor again?"

Liu Bolun frowned again when he heard Du Chengfeng, who was packing his luggage, say this.

"Can't you just be quiet for a few days?"

"Not for myself."

With that, Du Chengfeng drew out the sword without a blade.

If the regret of old man Ruan is that he was not brave enough to take action at the critical moment and could only practice his benevolence and righteousness by taking a step back, then the regret of this sword is why old man Ruan did not take action, why he did not carry the sword to let the emperor understand what benevolence and righteousness is like when he was young.

And now, as the inheritor of this edgeless sword, Du Chengfeng must certainly realize the wish of this sword.

He does not understand what benevolence and righteousness are, but this does not prevent him from going to the emperor to take action. As for the matter of benevolence and righteousness, let the sword speak for itself.

"The old man... hey."

Hearing that Du Chengfeng was just going to fulfill Ruan Shantao's last wish, Liu Bolun finally sighed and did not stop him.

"I thought you were greedy for the national defense magic weapon that the palace man said..."

"What greed? That was originally a reward for my restoration of order, and it is what I deserve."

Du Chengfeng looked serious.

"But if you say so, what's the explanation here?"

"That kind of thing won't fall into your hands."

Liu Bolun thought about it and explained it to Du Chengfeng.

The so-called national protection magic weapon is the fifteen magic weapons used by the Taizu of Dachen when he founded the country. It is said that these weapons are left by the brave generals who followed the Taizu of Dachen. After these brave generals died on the battlefield, their weapons still protected the country. No matter how precarious it is, as long as there are still people who can pick up these weapons, Dachen will still stand firm.

Of course, the facts have also proved that this kind of insurance may not be really useful. For example, if you encounter a treacherous prime minister who manipulates people's hearts, even the emperor can be bewitched to abdicate the throne. No matter how powerful the magic weapons are, they can't stop this.

But in general, at least when you need to take action, the status of these fifteen magic weapons is no less than the imperial seal of the Dachen royal family.

"So do you think this kind of thing could be given to an outsider?"

At this point, Liu Bolun sighed.

"General Wang Tong was loyal to the emperor and the country all his life, and he only used his own sword. Even such a person was not given a magic weapon, so how could you get it?"

"In other words, it might be a trap?"

Du Chengfeng thought about it.

"The emperor thought it was not good for me to kill the prime minister, so he planned to trick me over and kill me?"

"...I can't rule out this possibility."

Gnashing his teeth, Liu Bolun nodded.

Although he was a Chen man, he didn't want to talk much about this matter, but when he thought about the fact that the emperor had even abdicated the throne to a treacherous prime minister, it seemed that there was nothing he couldn't say.

"In short, this trip is dangerous. If you can avoid it, I suggest not to..."

"Great! That's what I want!"

Du Chengfeng was immediately happy.

He was just worried that he had no chance to verify his idea. Now someone might be lining up to send him off. Wouldn't this give him a chance to try?

Of course, it was precisely because this trip was dangerous that he was going to go by himself.

"In short, if the villagers have any problems, it depends on you to give them advice. When you need to take action, you go to Xiao Cui. If he doesn't want to help, then tell him that this is also part of the practice."

After that, Du Chengfeng loaded all his tools on the horse's back and hung the halberd wrapped in cloth on it.

He really didn't have any need to covet the national defense weapons. After all, strictly speaking, the halberd in his hand should be of the same grade.

He just wanted to try if he had the chance to take out those national defense weapons and polish them.

After all, the memory on the halberd was worn out too badly, and he couldn't really get the secrets of these magic weapons.

And these mysteries hidden in history often mean power itself.

The first update is here, and the second update will be before 12 o'clock.
