Chapter 222 True Name: Sword Techniques and People with Strong Qi(1/2)

 "What a madman!"

Inside the cottage, Wei Shaoxuan was stunned for a long time and cursed in a low voice.

He picked up the tea cup and drank it down.

Even though the sixth son of the Wei family has a deep sense of calmness, it is difficult for him to remain calm and elegant.

The Sui Crazy Emperor, who has been buried in the dust of history and criticized by historians, is even more crazy and outrageous than he imagined.

"When the Southern Dynasty royal family forged a cauldron sword, they had already exhausted the material resources of the Southern Kingdom and tried their best. Following the mad emperor's misfortune, they added another cauldron sword to the Butterfly Creek Sword Furnace and forged two cauldron swords at the same time?"

Wei Shaoxuan suddenly felt that compared with Sui Crazy Emperor, he and his father were too merciful. Well, so was the current Holy Emperor.

It seems that everything must be contrasted.

Happiness comes from unevenness.

"Historical books say that the creation of the 'Wen Emperor' in the Northern Dynasty had almost exhausted the country's power, and the world had just been unified. This mad emperor was not busy appeasing his generals, winning over the people's hearts, and slowly trying to figure it out. Instead, he was obsessed with the art of refining Qi.

Forge a tripod sword with two mouths. If this person does not perish his country, who will perish his country?"

Wei Shao

"Oh, a lunatic who fishes for nothing."

Qiu Shenji nodded:

"The stolen cauldron sword should have been unforged by the Southern Royal Family that year. Most of the sword was cast by the Southern Royal Family, so Sui Mad Emperor should have given priority to casting it.

"It's just that it's unknown whether the sword had been forged before it was stolen.

"The ancestor of my Qiu family, who was an official and a general on horseback, once said that the mad emperor was furious that day, blocked the news, and executed many people involved in the incident, including many precious swordsmiths. His blood and

The head rolled into Butterfly Creek, and the water dyed it red for half a month, but it was not washed away...

"Why did this lunatic kill the swordsmith?" Wei Shaoxuan was curious.

"It seems that the swordsmith and the sword thief cooperated internally and externally, so that the tripod sword was lost."

"The inside should be in harmony with the outside?"

Wei Shaoxuan's face showed some thoughts.

These secrets that have long been hidden in the dust of history may not even be recorded in the secret treasury of the Wei Palace. It is estimated that they can only be passed down orally from the families of military strategists and qigong practitioners such as the foster father.

"Do you know, my adoptive father, that no one can be a thief? He would dare to steal even the mad emperor's sword."

Qiu Shenji looked at him and shook his head:

"Liu Lang, don't think too much. This happened nearly a hundred years ago. There are many powerful Qi practitioners who know about this matter. The clues that can be found have been searched all over by smart people. I wonder if there is a cauldron made of it."

The sword has long been missing, and no one knows who stole it.

"But he must be a Qi Practitioner with good cultivation. There are indeed many Qi Practitioners on the mountain that the Mad Emperor offended back then, not to mention those top Qi Practitioners who once supported the Southern Kingdom's royal family."

Speaking of this, Qiu Shenji glanced out the window to the south, where there was a hidden sect.

Wei Shaoxuan nodded, sighed, and stopped asking.

He mused:

"So, the embryo of the tripod sword currently being built by the Liu Family is the new tripod that the Mad Emperor found after he lost his sword?"

Qiu Shenji nodded slightly:

"When I was reading history books, I had doubts as to why the Mad Emperor was so late in forging the sword. Later, when I heard about this secret, I suddenly realized that a secret incident had indeed occurred along the way."

Wei Shaoxuan was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed and softly chanted:

"It's a pity that I press gold thread every year to make wedding clothes for others..."

He turned his head again with emotion on his face:

"However, foster father, just imagine if this sword-stealing incident hadn't happened. With the mad emperor's Qi training and his army possessing multiple tripod swords, even if all the heroes came together, it would be uncertain who would belong to the world in the end.

"After all, just one word of 'Wen Di' has already made the heroes of the world fearful. Emperor Taizong Wen even had to temporarily avoid the edge in the military formation..."

"However, Qing Shi has no ifs. In the end, dust will return to dust, dust will return to dust, and Da Sui's fate and the sword will all belong to Da Qian.

"'Emperor Wen' was also added to the title by the Lord of Daqian, and was renamed 'Emperor Wen'... I think it was a twist of fate.

"By the way, foster father, have you ever seen that 'Emperor Wen' among the border troops in the North? What does it look like?"

Qiu Shenji nodded slightly.

Hearing this, a look of awe flashed in his eyes.

That's right, the Great Zhou Dynasty, or the Great Qian Dynasty before it, also had a tripod sword.

Although Emperor Taizongwen of Daqian Dynasty prohibited future generations from forging tripod swords again, the swords that had been forged in history did not say that they were not allowed to be used.

In the Zhou Dynasty that succeeded Da Qian today, the most world-famous cauldron sword is ‘Emperor Wen’.

However, it is difficult to find a sword wielder who meets the "qi conditions" of this sword. At the same time, this object is already an important weapon of the country and is not owned by a single family. There is already a very mature set of official Qi practitioners around its use. system.

When necessary, Qi practitioners who dare to offend the imperial power will be killed, and the most elite battle formations of the surrounding armies will be borrowed from the bottom to sweep thousands of armies and expand the territory.

Even the powerful Wei family could not embezzle it privately.

Qiu Shenji still remembers that day in the northern part of the country where the sky was clear, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was filled with yellow sand. As far as the field of vision could be seen in front of him, enemy cavalry were densely packed, like a black tide coming from the horizon, about to engulf the right wing of Qian's army.

At a certain moment, a sword came from the east.

The black tide that was originally rushing was cut in half by a straight steel wire placed horizontally. It was as plain and simple as cutting tofu. The black tide was cut into two pieces of tofu, which fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Looking at it, it is a straight line of death. Anyone who dares to cross it halfway will have their upper and lower bodies separated, and even the passing sandstorm will be broken into two halves.

The fresh and strong smell of blood carried by the west wind was still fresh in Qiu Shenji's memory more than ten years later, and his nose seemed to be able to smell it faintly at this moment.

It is called "Emperor Wen", but his killing is not elegant at all, just like Emperor Wen of Daqian Taizong who was once invincible.

If the Wei family could suppress the Yingzhou rebellion not long ago with a cauldron sword, there would be no such mess!

Moreover, the Wei Palace is very suspicious that the rebellion in Yingzhou was not only the rebellion of the rebels, but also the secret assistance of Qi practitioners. It may not be related to the rival Xiang Wang's power... although there is no evidence yet.

Qiu Shenji was silent for a moment, nodded slightly and said:

"The true appearance of 'Emperor Wen' is a bit special. For some reason, the swordsmiths who made Dao Lineage started to deviate from the norm after they finished casting the 'Hanshi' in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They said it was a sword but not a sword.

A tripod is not a tripod, I don’t know how to describe it...

"But Rokuro will have a chance to see you soon. This time when you carry the sword back, you need to borrow the rare sword art of 'Emperor Wen'. The prince has made arrangements for you. Go back and observe once... This is a lot of money consumed by the palace."

Few human resources, in exchange for opportunities."

The man with the box on his back said coldly:

"On this trip to Dragon City, there are two things that must be obtained. In addition to the body of the tripod sword, it is the true name of the tripod sword. The true name is only known to the swordsmith who forges the sword himself, and it is also the most important thing.

"That's why I told Liulang not to offend that old gentleman for the time being."

"I know."

Wei Shaoxuan nodded slightly, as if he already knew these things, and he suddenly asked:

"Why is my adoptive father so sure that I need to use sword skills to conquer this cauldron sword? What if I happen to be a powerful person close to it? I can overcome it..."

"Maybe."

Qiu Shenji said casually, turning his head and looking out the window.

Seeing the expression on his adoptive father's face, Wei Shaoxuan twitched the corner of his mouth. His tone sounded perfunctory.

However, he felt that his adoptive father's reaction was normal. His adoptive father had always been cold and realistic, so how could he place his hopes on the identity of an arrogant person who was illusory and whose probability was extremely low.

It is better to honestly use another set of safe methods that have been explored by Qi practitioners for thousands of years.

Wei Shaoxuan took a long breath, stood up, walked around the room, and murmured:

"What should I call the old swordsmith? I remember he seemed to have a name. He called himself 'Wu Ming' or something like that."

Qiu Shenji shook his head: "It sounds like a pseudonym at first sight. Most swordsmiths are withdrawn and have weird temperaments."

Wei Shaoxuan smiled and said:

"I think so too, but this old gentleman's identity and experience are quite interesting.

"According to Liu Ziwen's original revelation, before the Mei family was wiped out, this old man was a registered disciple of the Guyue Sword Shop with a foreign surname, and was exposed to some sword-making skills of the Mei family. However, later, he seemed to have had a quarrel with the teachers surnamed Mei.

, it was a dispute over certain ideas that led to a complete breakup, leaving the school and never returning - of course, now it seems that this quarrel should be related to the Dingjian.

"But foster father, the fun is coming later."

Wei Shaoxuan folded his fan and clapped his hands, turned his head and said leisurely:

"More than ten years ago, Liu Ziwen set up a poisonous plan to wipe out the entire Mei family who refused to obey. However, after a hundred secrets, a Mei family disciple escaped from the tunnel with the embryo of the tripod sword. Liu Ziwen was in great distress.

There are huge rewards on the rivers and lakes, and people are wanted everywhere, but no one can be found for a long time, but my adoptive father, guess what?"

Qiu Shenji looked sideways slightly and raised his brows.

Wei Shaoxuan grinned, revealing three white teeth, and smiled brightly:

"Liu Ziwen did nothing. The old gentleman took the head of the escaped Mei clan disciple and the embryo of the Ding Sword and returned alone. He found Liu Ziwen to cooperate with him and made a three-part agreement. He ignored common matters and only focused on making swords. Liu Ziwen
