51. Asking the Heart Knife(1/2)
The empress ascended the throne and the Great Chu was rebuilt. This news was quickly spread throughout the world in the legends of the Beggars' Sect, the Five Elements Sect, the Tianji Pavilion, and the major sects.
Just like a gust of wind, sweeping the world, and for a while, the people were surging. No matter in the south or north, there were changes. The governance systems everywhere are still being rebuilt, but now the northern country has been destroyed and the Great Chu has a great reputation.
Some small forces that were swaying from side to side before had only one way to go.
There were also northern soldiers in various parts of the south who put down their weapons and chose to surrender. The march speed of Miao and Miao soldiers in the Miao army was several times faster at once. On the marginal areas, such as the South China Sea, there were also sects in Jianghu who took the initiative to attack the cities and serve the Great Chu.
The world that had been divided for nearly 30 years was filled with signs of reconciliation overnight.
Everyone is saying that this is the birth of the Great Chu in accordance with the destiny of heaven, and it is the destiny of heaven. But in fact, this kind of success, perhaps the people of the world have had enough of the chaos over the years.
There is also an urgent hope in the hearts of billions of creatures in the world that this scattered sand will have a day to reunite.
Rather than saying that Qingqing obeys the will of heaven, it is better to say that Qingqing follows the will of the people. In short, in addition to the disputes in Liaodong, Western Regions, Yizhou and other places, all affairs in the world have already been on the right track.
Qingqing issued several edicts in succession, opened the imperial examination, recruited literati and poets from all over the world, served the Great Chu Dynasty, and also had special edicts to the martial arts world.
It is clearly stated in plain language.
The Great Chu Dynasty would not suppress the martial arts world, nor would it forbid people from all over the world to practice martial arts.
He even classified the corps of the martial arts world into the governance of the court, and specially set up a Tianshi for the National Protection. He also recognized the position of the leader of the martial arts world from the official position, and also gave the first-rank official a rank.
The nine leaders in the world are under their jurisdiction, and they are all divided into martial arts affairs in the Jiuzhou world. They also have the ranks of court officials, and they will reset the jianghu system.
All sects reported to the court can receive a piece of money and grain supplements from the official every year according to the persons divided in the system. It is even clear that the official will hold a martial arts conference in Yanjing City next year to elect the leader of the martial arts alliance who will succeed Hao.
This system sounds fresh, but it also incorporates the affairs of the world into state affairs. There has never been such a law before. It seems that the world and the government have always been in opposition.
Now the Great Chu has set a precedent, and I don’t know whether it is good or bad.
However, everyone in the world knows that the Qingqing Queen was born in the martial arts world and was a serious hero in the martial arts world. Now she is sitting on the dragon throne and taking care of the people in the martial arts world more often. That is just a matter of saying.
In this change that shrouded the world, the Mohist treasure ship had left Yanjing and carried a group of people to the Western Regions in a completely different way of travel.
"alright."
Mo Hei, wearing a black and white mask, took an object similar to a combination of a wrench and a screwdriver, and took a step back and said to the worry in front of him:
"Try it."
The latter glanced at his shoulders, and there was an "arm" under the originally empty sleeves.
The black one is shining with a trace of metallic luster, which looks like a skeleton made of steel. Because it uses materials secretly made of Mohist schools, the prosthesis is not heavy while ensuring strength.
It is different from the prosthetic limbs that the Mo family often use. It does not have so many clever hiding mechanisms, and it looks extremely simple. It has made very delicate locks at the connection between the elbows, wrists, and five fingers, so that it can move freely.
Young people can feel that in the invisible details of the metal arm, there are threads hidden in steel, connected to the muscles and bones of their broken wounds.
He followed the already strange feeling and wanted to lift his arm up. As soon as this thought appeared, the black arm, which seemed a bit ferocious and unique, raised it up.
It feels weird.
It is completely different from the flesh and blood body.
He put his hand in front of him, watched the black five fingers move one by one, curled up, clenched into fists, and stretched out again, very flexible, as if steel had its own life.
But he couldn't feel the touch of this hand, nor could he feel the rebirth of his broken limb.
Although, he did take his arm back.
In the past few days, You Wuming has been accepting the "transformation" of the Mo family. Chen Qiu asked Mo Hei to remade this arm for him.
Because of the revival of spiritual energy, many secret techniques of the Mohist school that were unable to be used before can be tried now. The black prosthesis of You Wuming now is the result of this attempt.
Not only did the Mohist school's previous skills, but also the engraved Mohist talismans inside the steel shell, using Gongshu's skillful hands to make this prosthetic limb manipulated with true qi and is also more flexible than before.
It can even be used to accumulate power through spring cables that have been replaced several times before casting.
Through magical martial arts and self-sacrifice techniques, this steel arm can burst out with greater power when necessary.
"How does it feel?"
Mo Hei kept watching You Wuming's performance, and he asked:
"Do you need to make any adjustments? If you like those with strong destructive power, I can add some gadgets such as explosive bombs, sting blades, hidden weapons, etc."
You Wuming shook his head.
He stood up and used his hand to hold the hilt of the crazy sand sword beside him. He used a set of sword techniques under Mo Hei's gaze. His movements were fierce, and at the beginning he was a little awkward.
But as the blood-colored true energy of the Blood Sea Magic Technique flows into the steel arm, the potential of this mechanical steel hand like a blood hand is also activated, making it as flexible as a real flesh-and-blood hand.
"Very good, no need to change."
You Wuming slashed forward, splitting the small wooden carving three meters in front of him into four, then put the knife in sheath, and turned around and smiled at Mo Hei.
He reached out his hand, touched the magical arm, and said:
"Thank you, Master."
“No need to thank.”
Mo Hei nodded, put all the tools at hand in hand and put them into his exquisite toolbox. He cleaned up while saying:
"I don't hide it from you, the lifeless boy, this arm is a test piece, and you are also a test piece of our Mohist family. If this trip is unimpeded, my Mohist school's attempt to move towards a new aspect will be considered as a success.
This arm should have been used on me, but it is not a shame to give it to you.
When you use it to fight, you should pay more attention to the advantages and disadvantages of all aspects. I will write letters to you from time to time, and I will inform you of these experiences so that I can make improvements to this."
"OK."
You Wuming did not feel angry just because he became a tool for the Mo family.
He watched Mo Hei leave, and with the Blood Sea Demonic Art, he had already noticed it when he came into contact with this person.
Mo Hei only has the torso and head, it is a flesh and blood body. His limbs have turned into mechanical prosthetic limbs, and even in the torso, his internal organs have been replaced.
He was following Juzi's path and heading towards the depths of the Tianji Forbidden Technique.
Moreover, among the more than 30 Mo family members who drove this treasure ship, most of them were like black and improved their bodies to varying degrees.
These elite Mohist scholars are really a group of reformist madmen and do not care about the integration of flesh and blood and mechanisms.
I was by the window and looked out at the sea of clouds around me. This was in the sky of thousands of feet. Since it was different from the ground scene, it had a very flavor.
But if you read too much, you will feel bored.
After a few breaths, he put away his thoughts, turned around and returned to the room, and took out a black jar that he had carefully packed from the box he carried with him.
What is placed inside is Brother Zhang Chu's ashes.
This time he took leave to Qingqing and followed Chen Qiu and his party to the Western Regions, he fulfilled Zhang Chu Ge's last wish and buried his remains at the foot of the Great Snow Mountain in the Zhang family cemetery.
It was buried beside Aunt Yuhan's tomb whom she had never met before.
You Wuming put the jar on the table, picked up the handkerchief, and wiped it carefully. He was not at peace. At this time, six or seven days had passed since Zhang Chu's death.
But in the past few days, as long as you close your eyes, you can see the scene of Brother Zhang Chu dying in the flames.
It is said that people are about to die, and their words are good. When Brother Zhang was dying, he also expressed his feelings to him and Brother Zhang Lan. He said that he was a lonely person, but before his death, two younger brothers came to see him off, but he was not alone.
That was what Brother Zhang Chu said in person, and he also regarded You Wuming as his younger brother.
Whenever he thinks of this, there is a twitching pain in his heart. He lost his mother when he was a child, and now he has lost Brother Zhang Chu, whom he regards as a relative.
It is like the beautiful things in life, everything he wants to keep, leaving him, just like sand in his hand, the tighter he holds, the faster he loses.
Is this really what life should be like?
You Wuming sighed. This young man sighed more and more in the past few days. In addition to sadness, he actually had a trace of speechless confusion in his heart.
If life is compared to the sea, then in the past, Woo Wuming was a warship escorting the flagship.
Wherever the flagship goes, he goes.
When the flagship puts down the order, he doesn't have to think too much. Just complete the order. His life is just to circle around the flagship and travel around the flagship.
But now, the flagship has sunk.
On this vast sea, only his lonely ship was left. His combat power was still strong and he was still not afraid of challenges, but he had lost his direction.
He didn't know where to go.
There was no order given to him anymore, so he could only stop and sit around, looking around, and was confused. There was also Qingqing, a new flagship, to take him forward.
But Qingqing did not give him a clear order like Brother Zhang Chu.
Qingqing didn't even treat him as a subordinate. Although she often talked about You Wuming's choices, Qingqing never forced You Wuming to do this and that.
So, he is very confused now. Life should enter a new stage, but should he move forward or retreat?
"Wu Ming, why don't you go for lunch?"
Half an hour later, Zhang Lan, holding the cat, walked into the cabin with a meal. You Wuming immediately stood up. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhang Lan's wave.
The latter put the still hot rice on the table, looked at Yu Wuming's newly replaced arm, touched his chin and looked around, and said:
"It's pretty cool."
You Wuming smiled. He had a good relationship with Zhang Lan, which can be seen from his name to Zhang Lan.
"Let's have a meal."
