MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 154 Why epee (8000)

  Chapter 154 Why is it an epee (8000)

  In the quiet room, Ye Zi's words sounded softly and slowly.

  When Ye Zi finished speaking, Xu Bai's eyes narrowed slightly.

   "Soul Control Master?"

   This is the first time he has heard of this profession. To be precise, it is the first time he has heard of many professions. After all, his knowledge reserve is still a little shallow.

   Being able to fight is one thing, but it doesn't mean he knows a lot.

  Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "There is such a cautious business in this world?"

   Cautious?

   No, this is just for Ye Zi to understand. To be precise, this profession is very stupid.

  The so-called soul control master is a profession of energy.

  They can extract the soul of a person, leaving only a part in that person's body.

  The spirit that they extracted was the way they controlled that person.

  The extracted soul will become exactly the same as the person being extracted. They use a special method to condense their energy into silk threads, so as to control the person being extracted by condensing into a soul that looks the same as the person being extracted.

  Anyone who is controlled can exert their full strength through their control.

  The reason why this profession is so special is that they will never appear in front of the world, and will always appear in front of everyone with the people they control.

   More importantly, this business has special methods that can avoid detection and tracking by many methods.

  Controlling a soul master is a disgusting profession.

   Those who are controlled by them, most of them will never be able to get rid of it.

   It is precisely because of this that many people feel their own crisis and stay away from this industry.

  If the difference in strength is huge, you can directly extract the soul, if the difference in strength is not big, there is one more condition.

  The premise is that before they extract the soul, they must let the extracted person fall into a state of chaos.

   To put it more bluntly, the subjects must be comatose and not resist them.

   Even if you fall asleep, you must be completely unconscious.

"My lord, there are many wonders in the world, and this business is also disgusting, because a long time ago, they used this method to control people who have nothing to do with them." Ye Zi explained: "Through this method, they want to become One side is the overlord, but it is precisely because of this that it has aroused the vigilance of many industries and was attacked by groups."

   "This is really self-inflicted." Xu Bai said.

   Indeed, there is a method that can control others, and it can also make the person under control exert their full strength. The ability of this kind of business is like a sword hanging over the heads of other businesses.

  The most important thing is that even if there is a big difference in strength in their profession, they only need to make the other party unconscious. As long as this prerequisite is met, they can extract the soul.

   There are many ways to make a person unconscious, and this is the most important thing.

  If these guys are honest, others can't find a reason, but once they take a wrong step, the reason will come out, and after the reason comes out, they will definitely not end well.

   "According to what you said, it is difficult to detect their whereabouts. It seems that this time they have tricked me." Xu Bai thought.

  Let him go over to talk about things, not to mention what to talk about, just this kind of scene is like a grand banquet.

   "Sir, do you want to go there?" Ye Ziliu frowned slightly.

  She has learned these things, of course she knows the disgusting aspects of this profession, and she also understands that there are many ways to implement the prerequisites.

  When Ye Zi said this, the worry in his words was obvious.

  Xu Bai nodded, and said: "Of course I want to take a look, but I won't be so stupid as to run over alone, after all, the other party obviously came prepared."

   "Young master, do you have any countermeasures? How about I go for you." Ye Zi bit his lip and said.

  Xu Bai touched Ye Zi's face, smiled and said, "It's not your turn to do these things for me, don't worry, I have my own way."

   Ye Zi saw Xu Bai saying that there was a way, of course she believed it unconditionally, so after hearing this, she felt relieved.

  Xu Bai took out the second grade divination book, didn't think about these things, and continued to play the progress bar.

  Since the other party wanted him to go to this banquet, of course he would go, but he already had a plan, so he didn't think about it any more. He continued to hurry up, gain the same skills, and have the same means.

  Ye Zi stood quietly by the side, waiting quietly.

  …

   In the blink of an eye, a night passed slowly.

  The next morning, Xu Bai woke up very early as usual.

  As usual, he went out to have a meal with Ye Zi, so he didn't stay on the street, and returned to the room, continuing to work on the progress bar in his hand.

  Ye Zi was also very curious, not knowing exactly what Xu Bai was thinking, but seeing that Xu Bai was confident, he didn't ask any more questions, and stayed with him with peace of mind.

  Chunyu Pavilion is only open at night. After all, it is a romantic place, and there are no people in broad daylight.

  Although the mysterious person did not agree on a specific time yesterday, but only said that today would be the past, the Chunyu Pavilion will not be open during the day, and it is definitely not the day.

  So Xu Bai continued to watch the progress bar during the day, and he didn't put down the book in his hand until night.

   "Is the young master going?" Ye Zi sat aside, put his hands on his chin, leaned his elbows on his knees, and looked up at Xu Bai.

   "I won't go." Xu Bai said, "I'll go."

   As he said, Xu Bai took out a stack of paper from the cabinet in the house, took out a pen and wrote a long paragraph on it, and then handed it to the fourth-rank puppet.

   "This... so, the young master let the puppet pass." Ye Zimei's eyes were full of surprise.

   This fact surprised her a little. She thought that Xu Bai was going to go there in person, but she just found a way, so she was confident, but she never expected that it would be a puppet.

   "I'm not a fool, how could I go there by myself? If it's head-to-head, I still have some ideas, but his ability is really weird. It's better to be steady." Xu Bai smiled.

  Ye Zi came back to his senses, and said, "But my lord, what if you don't get through, what if they don't tell you?"

  Xu Bai shook his head and said: "He called me over to communicate with me, or directly assassinate me. There are only two possibilities.

  If they want to talk to me, my puppet can satisfy them. If they don’t want to talk, then it can only be assassination. In this case, it doesn’t matter whether they control the puppet or not. "

  This situation is nothing more than two situations of assassination and conversation. The puppet can replace him in the conversation. What he wants to say and ask is written on that piece of paper, and the other party can also write it on the paper if he wants to say it.

   This seems to be the safest method at present, which is both safe and efficient.

  The other party uses control methods to meet him, and he also controls puppets to meet him. Isn’t this the same?

   "Master is brilliant." Ye Zi had a sweet mouth, and praised with a smile.

  Xu Bai stuffed a few more silver tickets into the fourth-grade puppet's arms, let the puppet cover his figure, and went straight out the door.

  After the fourth-grade puppet walked out, it walked straight towards Chunyu Pavilion.

  Because of covering the figure, the fourth-grade puppet at this moment looks more like a person, even the face is tightly covered, only a pair of eyes are exposed, but they are covered by the hood on the top of the head.

   If you don't look carefully, you won't find it at all. What is walking on the street now is a puppet.

  Chunyu Pavilion is not far from the inn.

   At this time, it was already dark, and there were no people on the street. Most of the people who were busy during the day were doing entertainment activities at home. As an entertainment venue in Fenghua Prefecture, Chunyu Pavilion was full of people at the moment.

  At the gate, there are either gorgeously dressed rich businessmen, brightly dressed young people, or scholars holding folding umbrellas.

   On the second and third floors, gorgeous girls are leaning against the railings, and their glances from time to time can attract people's souls away.

  There is a taste of extravagance and nature here. Although it is in the hands of the Ninth Princess, it is one of the important sources of income for the Great Chu Kingdom, and it is also an important financial channel formed by the emperor through the hands of the Ninth Princess.

  The fourth-grade puppet stepped out of the darkness, stepped into it with flexible steps.

   Around, many visitors and girls looked over. They saw that the fourth-grade puppet was not dressed properly, but there was a biting cold aura on his body, so they all turned their heads away and did not look this way.

   This person is not easy to mess with at first glance, and people who are sensible hide away, but it doesn't prevent Chunyu Pavilion from making money.

  The old bustard swayed with a sense of prostitution, walked over with a still charm, and said, "Master, is there a girl you like?"

  She is considered a person with sharp eyesight, after all, she hangs out in this place.

  When you meet a weak scholar or a rich young master, you call him a son, and when you meet someone who looks like someone from the world, you call him a master.

  Different titles can bring different effects. After all, everyone likes different titles, and this is the details.

   In this respect, Jiang Tong, who called him a blood butcher swordsman, was not even as good as an old bustard.

  The fourth-grade puppet can't speak, but it doesn't hinder Xu Bai's previous arrangement.

  It stretched its hand into its bosom, then took out a few bank notes and stuffed them into the bosom's bosom, and waved his hand impatiently.

  Under Xu Bai's control, a particularly familiar movement took shape.

   It's like being a regular customer, and you don't need others to bring you.

  The bustard was also slightly taken aback. She has been in this place for so long, and she has never seen such a weird person.

   But looking at the banknote in her arms, she thought that maybe this person knew someone, and maybe she just came here to take a look.

  Anyway, there are enough banknotes in his arms, and the man just now was obviously impatient with her.

"Master, then you go shopping first. If you need to give me an order at any time, I will walk around this floor." The old bustard is also a discerning person. It proves that the person in front of him is definitely not poor, nor does he have the behavior of eating Bawang chicken.

   After a while, the bustard left, very simply.

  The fourth-grade puppet was even more straightforward. He came directly to the stairs, slowly raised his feet, and walked towards the third floor step by step.

  According to the agreed location, after reaching the third floor, the fourth-rank puppet found the corner room and knocked on the door lightly.

  Accompanied by a creak, the door opened from the inside, a girl with heavy makeup, dressed very silky, looked up at the fourth-grade puppet.

"Who are you…"

   This sentence was not asked, only two words were said, and the fourth-rank puppet raised his hand to interrupt. There was a stack of papers in his hand, and the fourth-rank puppet turned out one of them, and pointed at the girl.

  There is only a simple line of words on it.

"I am coming."

  The girl was stunned, and after a while, she silently turned sideways and let the fourth-grade puppet enter the room.

  The fourth-grade puppet did not hesitate, stepped into it, and even sat on the chair in the room.

"Snapped!"

  A crisp voice came, and the naked woman closed the door.

   Immediately afterwards, her shape became extremely weird. There were dense silk threads appearing in the air at the joints, and she was hanging in the air, which looked very strange.

   "Master Xu, there are rumors in the world that you are a reckless man. I didn't expect you to be very cautious. You didn't even come to see me sincerely. It seems that Master Xu is worried that I want you to deal with you secretly."

  A voice that is neither male nor female, but also male and female, reverberates in the room, and the specific tone and gender cannot be heard.

  In terms of caution, soul control masters have their own methods.

  The fourth-grade puppet did not answer, but turned out another piece of paper, and the content on it emerged.

   "I can't say, I can't see, and I can't hear. You'd better write down everything you know, including what you want to talk to me today. You can write it down on paper."

woman:"…"

  What the **** is this familiar déjà vu?

   Isn't this a trick I often use, and the other party has learned it and sold it so quickly?

  Looking at the fourth-grade puppet in front of him, he placed the paper in his hand on the table, apparently for him to write on it.

  The woman gritted her teeth, obviously knowing that no matter how much she said at this time, it would be useless.

  Under the pull of the translucent silk thread, she took out a pen from the table, and wrote on the paper.

  She wrote very fast, and after only a moment, she wrote two full pages, and finally stuffed them into the hands of the fourth-rank puppet.

  After finishing writing, the woman sat on the chair directly, and the translucent silk thread on her body disappeared, without even looking at this side.

  When she wanted to come, this puppet couldn't see or hear it, so it was useless to talk, just write what she wanted on the paper and let the puppet take it back.

   What I didn't expect was that the fourth-grade puppet didn't leave, so why did it stay where it was?

  The woman hesitated, looking at the fourth-grade puppet from time to time.

   This woman is only controlled by the soul master.

  What I just wrote was also manipulated by the soul control master through the silk thread, so I don't know what to do now.

   Unable to speak, the fourth-grade puppet just stayed here.

  The woman didn't speak either.

   Time passed by every minute and every second, and there was no sign of going away.

   But this woman couldn't say much, and the person who manipulated her didn't manipulate her anymore, so she could only stay in a stalemate.

  Time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, the whole night passed like this.

  As daylight approaches, the number of people in Chunyu Pavilion is getting less and less. After all, Fengyue Pavilion is only open at night, and most of the doors are closed during the day. The girls also need to rest.

   At this time, the fourth-rank puppet suddenly raised his foot, and left Chunyu Pavilion amidst the woman's astonished expression...

  …

  Leaving Chunyu Pavilion, the fourth-grade puppet did not stay, and went back to the inn directly, handing the paper in Xu Bai's hands.

   After all this was done, the fourth-grade puppet stood quietly guarding it, without moving a second time.

   This is the disadvantage of mechanism puppetry.

   If the distance is far away, Xu Bai's control power is also limited, and he can only make some rigid orders.

  He gave the order before, and the fourth-grade puppet came back before Chunyu Pavilion closed according to the time he calculated.

  It is equivalent to making an instruction, when and what to do, it is very rigidly stipulated.

  As for why they took out the bank notes when they met the bustard, it was also an order issued in advance.

  If someone stops the fourth-rank puppet, the fourth-rank puppet will take out the silver ticket in his hand.

   After all, in that kind of place, after entering, the only one who stops the fourth-rank puppet is the bustard.

  Xu Bai reckons that this range can only be expanded unless the skill of Mechanism Puppet Art is improved a little bit.

  But now is not the time to think about these things, Xu Bai picked up the piece of paper in front of him, and scanned the content on it with great interest.

  A moment later, Xu Bai had finished reading the first page, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

  The content on the paper is vivid in my heart...

  【Master Xu, I really didn't expect you to be so cautious, but this time you really guessed wrong, I am not against you. 】

  【Those two men who assassinated you were arranged by me. Yes, I was the one who assassinated you, but this time I met you because I wanted to help you. 】

  【Whether you believe it or not, soul control masters are just street rats in this world. I only hope that by helping you, we can walk on the bright road. 】

  【I joined an alliance established by the people who dealt with you. The purpose is to cooperate with you internally and externally, so that you can successfully overcome this difficulty. 】

  【The opponent is very strong, and I still don’t know what kind of business he is. He said that he will destroy you and the entire Fenghua State together. 】

  【I know, if you want to cooperate with you, you must have a good bargaining chip, and I have it. 】

  …

  The content is divided into two pages, and this is the content of one of them, but Xu Bai can see through many things.

  First of all, it is divided into two words, true and false.

   It’s not necessary to say that it’s fake, the other party played a Mission: Impossible with him.

  If you believe it yourself, it will cause a series of subsequent troubles.

   As for if it is true, then there is something worthy of scrutiny.

  The other party's purpose is actually to help him, and then bring the soul master to the royal family, so as to wash away the stains of the past.

   But what Xu Bai is more interested in is the bargaining chip the other party said.

  Xu Baisi reached here, touched his chin, and turned to the second page.

  The content on the second page is vivid on the paper.

  【My bargaining chip is actually very simple. First of all, I will tell you which forces are against you. 】

  【There is only one local family, and that is the Tong family. 】

  【As for those outside the local area, it is very complicated. These forces are actually not a threat to Mr. Xu. 】

  【The most important thing is our leader, he didn’t even tell us what he does. 】

  【But he has extremely high confidence that he can completely destroy you, including the entire Fenghua State. 】

  【Another point is that the leader seems to be waiting for an opportunity. If there are any changes in Fenghua Prefecture during this period, Mr. Xu must pay more attention. 】

  …

  Here, everything is over.

  Xu Bai handed the paper in his hand to Ye Zi: "Do you have any ideas?"

  Ye Zi took it curiously, and after scanning it up and down, put the paper on the table, her brows slightly frowned, as if she was thinking about it.

   After about half a stick of incense, Ye Zi opened his mouth.

   "Young master, I don't think what he said is true or not. We need to consider two aspects."

   "If what she said is true, then she is helping us. If it is false, she is leading us into the bait."

   "In any case, we need to investigate the local family in Fenghua Prefecture mentioned in the letter just now, as well as the leader and the recent changes he said in Fenghua Prefecture."

   "We all need to consider these points."

  Ye Zi spoke clearly and clearly.

  Xu Bai praised: "Yes, you and I think the same."

   Both true and false need to be considered in two aspects, but now there is an order before them.

   First go and see this so-called Tong family, and verify what the other party said, how much is true and how much is false.

Ye Zi asked: "My lord, should we investigate openly or secretly? If it is an open investigation, the two of us are enough. If it is a secret investigation, we need to monitor it all the time. The two of us, I am afraid Not enough, do you want to ask the state order to help?"

  Xu Baidao: "In this situation, it is not good to investigate clearly. The state is different from the prefecture, and the situation in the state is more complicated, so it needs to be investigated secretly. As for how to investigate secretly, I don't need the help of the state order. I just need to go to the Jiang family."

He didn't want to go to the state order, because he didn't know whether the state order was those pedantic scholars. In this case, it was not beautiful to look for it, so it was better to go to the Jiang family. After all, the Jiang family had already stated that Show your heart, you want to join.

In fact, there is one thing he didn't say, whether it's open or dark, it's fine. Since the other party dares to spread this information, it must be very easy for Xu Bai to find out, so both light and dark are effective. .

  The reason why he wanted to come secretly was because he wanted to give the Jiang family a chance, to be precise, he wanted the emperor to reward some other people more.

   Not for anything else, just to make the emperor lose money.

  Going all the way to the present, at the beginning, Xu Bai felt that he made money, after all, there are so many unknown sword scriptures.

   But until now, Xu Bai felt that he had lost money again, especially last time when he entered the Yaogui City out of nowhere.

   And it's not him who awarded the reward, someone doesn't have to be a fool.

   "If it is discovered that this family is colluding with those people..." Xu Bai stretched out his hand and wiped it on his neck, the meaning is very simple.

   "Go, go to Jiang's house now."

  With countermeasures in place, Xu Bai will of course take action.

   Soon, he took Ye Zi to Jiang's house. After entering the house, the head of Jiang's family gave him a very warm reception.

   "Master Xu, come all the way to find me, what's the matter? Don't worry, as long as I can do it, I will go through fire and water, and I will do whatever I want." Patriarch Jiang patted his chest and promised loudly.

   Such a burly man made this kind of movement, which seemed extremely sincere and down-to-earth.

   But in Xu Bai's view, these guys are as smart as monkeys, so they can only watch for fun.

  At this time, before Xu Bai could speak, Patriarch Jiang grabbed Jiang Tong who was next to him, and brought him to Xu Bai: "My lord, I offended you so much last time, let him apologize to you now."

Jiang Tong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, looking at the young man in front of him who was about the same age as him, he still obeyed his father's words and said respectfully: "Master Xu, I shouldn't call you by your title rashly. I was wrong last time. Please, Master Xu." understanding."

  Xu Bai waved his hand. He has long forgotten about this matter. The most important thing now is to solve the matter in front of him: "Patriarch Jiang, how much do you know about the Tong family?"

Patriarch Jiang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head: "We have no business dealings, we only know that the Tong family is a big family here, and they are in the business of Yin bodyguards, specializing in special bodyguard business. Master Xu has something to do with them. ?"

  Xu Bai smiled and said: "It's nothing serious, I just got a piece of information by chance that they are related to the person who assassinated me. If Patriarch Jiang is free, you might as well keep an eye on them for me."

  Patriarch Jiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, before showing a serious look on his face: "Master Xu, don't worry, if they have any abnormalities, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible."

  Xu Bai nodded.

   I have to say that this Jiang family is indeed quite upright, as long as you say a word, they will agree.

   "In that case, then I will take my leave, and the Patriarch Jiang will be responsible for this matter."

  Xu Bai still has other things to do now, the most important thing is the liver progress bar. This time, he made things clear, and he will not stay any longer, and he doesn't want to waste time.

  He thought he could leave smoothly, but before he could stand up, Patriarch Jiang stretched out his hand to stop him.

   "Master Xu, wait a moment, Mr. Jiang has another unfeeling request, and I hope Master Xu will agree." The head of the Jiang family said.

  Xu Bai stopped, turned his head and looked at Patriarch Jiang with interest, expressing that he could speak out at any time.

"That's right, Master Xu, I'm a martial artist, and I can feel that Master Xu's aura is different. Master Xu, have you comprehended a special sword intent?" Patriarch Jiang hesitated when he said this After all, it is really not good to inquire about such things, but his heart is very hot.

  Xu Bai squinted his eyes and said, "That's true, Patriarch Jiang really has good eyesight, I don't know what Patriarch Jiang means by that?"

  Patriarch Jiang gritted his teeth, and said: "I am now in the third-rank realm, but I haven't comprehended the sword intent for a long time. If I can look at Master Xu's sword intent, I may be able to understand it by analogy, so I want to ask Master Xu to help me."

   As he spoke, Patriarch Jiang took out a book from his pocket, handed it to Xu Bai, and continued.

   "I know Mr. Xu is a businessman, he is a businessman, and he just wants to talk about business, so this is a deal. This book is my Jiang family's swordsmanship."

   "Although there is no matching mental method, it is still a second-grade book. As for the mental method, it is not that I am unwilling to give it, but my mental method is not matching. The matching mental method has long since disappeared in the previous war."

   "If Master Xu is willing, this book is yours."

  While speaking, Patriarch Jiang showed a pained expression on his face, obviously giving this thing was also a huge price for him.

  But there is no way, this world always respects strength, even if he hugs Xu Bai's thigh, the future will still depend on his own strength.

  If he can comprehend the sword intent, his strength will definitely get a qualitative leap, and it will be a good shelter for his family.

   "What did you say, swordsmanship?" Xu Bai listened well at first, but when he heard the word "swordsmanship", his eyes shone with excitement.

   Not just because of the progress bar, but because this is a book of swordsmanship.

  To be honest, which man does not have a dream of martial arts and fairy tales? What is the most brilliant weapon in martial arts and fairy tales, and that is the sword.

  For Xu Bai, he prefers swordsmanship, but helplessly, he is all swordsmanship along the way, even Gu Yuefei's swordsmanship, and finally merged into Huifeng Liuxue.

  Swordsmanship! That's swordsmanship!

  When Xu Bai was young, he was the one who claimed to hold a wooden stick, and within a radius of one mile, there were no rapeseed flowers left.

  Xu Bai took the book in his hand, looked at the blurred characters on it, gently flipped through two pages, and suddenly asked in confusion: "Then why is Patriarch Jiang so tall?"

  A person who practices swords should be immortal, why does his body become so big and strong?

  Patriarch Jiang said boldly: "This is the method of the epee."

  Xu Bai: "..."

  Suddenly I don’t want it anymore, what’s going on?

  Give me back my Pianpian long sword, I don't want an epee!

  This uses an epee, and it always feels similar to a certain broken-armed hero.

  Patriarch Jiang didn't know what Xu Bai was thinking, and he showed his muscles there: "This is the swordsmanship of a real man. With one strike, the opponent will be smashed into a pulp."

  The corner of Xu Bai's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought to himself: "Then it's the Fucking Wind Hammer Technique!"

   Slashing down with a sword, smashing the opponent into a pulp, but it really doesn't conform to the agility and elegance of swordsmanship at all.

  However, the complaints in his heart belonged to the complaints. In the end, Xu Bai still agreed, which is also a progress bar.

   Immediately, Xu Bai drew out his black knife, which was full of cracks.

  The next moment, the black knife shattered into countless fragments, and each fragment carried a terrifying sword intent.

  When the sword intent came out, the audience fell silent.

  Patriarch Jiang felt it seriously, while Jiang Tong took two steps back, his face turned pale, and he felt the terrifying pressure.

  This man is about the same age as him, but he feels that he is like a little ant in front of the other party.

   "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't offend him at the time." Jiang Tong thought to himself.

   It took about a few breaths before Patriarch Jiang nodded and asked Xu Bai to put away the black knife.

   "Thank you Master Xu, I'm close to the edge." Patriarch Jiang clasped his fists.

   Next, the two have nothing else to talk about.

  After telling Patriarch Jiang to monitor carefully, Xu Bai and Ye Zi returned to the inn from Jiang's house.

   "In the past few days, don't go shopping. Let the people in the inn prepare food. I will stay here for a few days until there is news from the Jiang family." Xu Bai instructed.

  Ye Zi nodded and agreed.

  Xu Bai hugged his book and continued to get angry.

  …

  Time passed day by day, he didn't wait for the Jiang family's reply, but waited until the progress bar was completed, and the progress bar of the second-grade fortune-telling book in front of him had reached the last trace.

   Watching the progress bar in front of him reach perfection, Xu Bai waited for the light blue smoke to appear.
