During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, in order to gain military merit, a sergeant would cut off the enemy's left ear after killing the enemy to prove the number of enemies he killed.
This word often appears in oracle bone inscriptions of the Shang Dynasty, which shows that merchants were warlike.
When the word "阘" appears, there must be something to kill the enemy!
The so-called art of killing is the art of killing enemies.
It is a real killing technique.
In this era, most of the skills and knowledge came from the royal family.
The art of killing is no exception.
Kong Si learned the art of cooking when he was a member of the royal family.
"Does a gentleman know how to judge a soldier's military strength?"
Kong Si asked.
Xin shook his head again, he really hadn't thought about this problem.
Number of murders?
Martial arts?
strength?
He doesn't know.
"It's physical strength." Kong Si replied.
"Strength?" Xin didn't understand very well, but after thinking about it, the warriors recorded in history books always seemed to have "excellent physical strength."
He had never thought about this sentence carefully before. Now that he thinks about it, is it possible that strength is the first condition to become a master?
Isn't it a secret book?
Isn’t it a sharp weapon?
"That's right. The foundation of any enemy-killing technique is physical strength. Therefore, when recruiting warriors, physical strength is the first test." Kong Si said: "Without strength, no skills can be performed."
Fall in one fell swoop
Ten meetings.
Xin suddenly thought of this truth.
Even in later sports competitions, the strength of core strength determines whether top athletes can exert all their skills.
For those talented rookies who have just entered the league, the most important thing in the first few years is to gain strength and build strength!
"So that's it. After all, killing skills are also techniques that use the body, which are similar to various sports in later generations."
The lower limit is determined by pure power!"
"When tigers and leopards compete, the winner is always the tiger. No matter how ferocious the tiger is, it is still difficult to defeat the rhinoceros. The same is true for ferocious beasts, and the same is true for humans." Kong Si expressed his point of view.
The entire nature is divided into combat effectiveness based on strength.
It has more blood, thicker skin, and higher attack, but it can be done even if you have less agility.
The blood is thin and the skin is brittle. It moves quickly and dies from an unknown AoE.
That's what it means.
On the real battlefield, it is better not to show off your operations. If the show dies, there is no way to restart.
"Can my strength be that of a tiger?" Xin asked again.
His brute strength seems to have not met his opponent yet.
Except for the weirdo Kong Si.
"Of course you can." Kong Si said: "After the eldest prince, I am afraid that the gentleman will be another person who inherits the eldest prince's divine power."
"Ancestor...divine power?"
"In this world, when it comes to strength, there are a few people who are considered to be divine powers. Among their clansmen and descendants, there are also people with such innate divine powers." Kong Si said.
"I'd like to hear the details," Xin said again.
"One of them, Prince Peng Sheng of Qi State, shocked the world by crushing the ribs of Duke Huan of Lu with his bare hands.
"The two of them, Chang Wan of the South Palace of the Song Dynasty, were good at using a single halberd. He threw it several feet in the air and caught it with his hand without any damage!
"The third one, Wei Ji, one of the five wise men of Lord Wen, the overlord, single-handedly controlled the tapir beast and bravely defeated the three armies.
"The fourth one is Xin Yumi, the ancestor of the gentleman, who was extremely powerful. King Zhao ordered him to be on the right side of the chariot. When King Zhao was cutting bushes, he and Cai Gong accidentally fell into the water. Xin Yumi fell into the water alone and killed the two of them.
The body was carried out, and then the emperor also named him 'eldest prince'."
"In addition, there is a clan whose descendants will definitely have people with supernatural powers beyond ordinary people. However, they are of noble birth and rarely show force."
Kong Si paused for a moment, he rarely spoke so much.
Xin asked again: "Could it be... the descendant of evil?"
"A gentleman is wise. It is said that the evil comer has the power of a rhinoceros and is brave enough to fight bears and tigers. His descendants are the royal family of the Qin Dynasty. There must have been such figures. However, Qin is located in the west, and the evil comer's descendants are in the royal family.
Naturally, I won't take action easily." Kong Si said.
"It is said that the King of Shang was also very talented and capable of handling ferocious beasts. But in the Song and Wei kingdoms established by his descendants, did their kings have anyone who was good at using supernatural powers?" Xin asked again.
Kong Si said: "Yes, but very few. After Wu Geng died, Emperor Xin's bloodline was cut off, and that kind of divine power never appeared again. The kings of Song, Wei and other countries did not inherit that kind of bloodline for some reason. Maybe they did not
Inherit the sacrifice of Xuanniao!"
These things cannot be explained clearly.
Wei Zi, the founder of the Song Dynasty, was the eldest brother of Emperor Xin, King of Yin Zhou, but we had never heard of him having any supernatural powers.
"People who bear these surnames have natural strength that is different from ordinary people. If they can be tempered, they will definitely become warriors." Kong Si breathed out a list of many famous masters in history, all of whom had courage that no man could match.
After hearing this, Xin You thought for a moment, and then said: "I heard that there is another clan who once had the manpower to hold up the city gate and became the most powerful general in the world! Gentleman, have you ever heard of this?"
"Lu Guo, Kong family, Shu Liang He." Kong Si's voice suddenly became deeper.
The Kong family, this family was not considered first-class in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it became famous in later generations.
This uncle Liang He was the father of Confucius, who was regarded as the "Sage of Heaven" and "Muduo of Heaven" in the world!
Confucius and Kong Laoer were also famous for their martial arts when they were young.
Among his disciples, there are many brave masters.
Therefore, many scholars in later generations once suspected that the so-called "Analects" were the rules of the world at that time, and should be regarded as "Wanyu".
There are more than 3,000 young and middle-aged men, which is more powerful than some small countries.
Xin remembered another sentence in the language of Luan: "Those who are not strong enough will give up in the middle way."
The meaning of this sentence is that those who are not as powerful as me can only be defeated by me on the road.
Doesn’t the concept contained in it coincide with what Kong Si said?
And Kong Si happens to be the Kong family, could it be...
"Kong Jun, are you from the same clan as Kong Qiu?" Xin You's mind of gossip arose.
"A long time ago... maybe."
Kong Si's answer was vague.
As if unwilling to talk about his relatives, Kong Si continued: "I just talked about the basics of the art of engraving. In addition, there are two requirements for the art of engraving."
"Which two?"
"The first is the desire to kill." Kong Si said: "The clan of gentlemen has been the historian of the past. Although there are warriors like the eldest son, can they really allow themselves to fight with people like wild beasts?"
Xin You was categorical: "What my ancestors could do, I can certainly do it. What's more, I learned the art of killing in order to survive. What's the fundamental difference between standing on a chariot and killing people, and fighting people up close? This is
You have nothing to worry about.”
It's the Spring and Autumn Period, and as a nobleman, Xin You will most likely go to the battlefield.
Instead of waiting until later to adapt, it is better to start learning now.
After all, Xin doesn’t know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.
Kong Si was silent. He could naturally see Xin You's obsession from Xin You's eyes.
"Speaking of which, what is the third request?" Xin asked again.
"The third one is the desire not to kill." Kong Si said to Xin.
"A desire not to kill?" Xin didn't understand.
Isn't this a killing technique? What is the intention not to kill?
"A murderer is a human..." Kong Si said something incomprehensible.
After Xin You heard this, he thought for a long time.
Finally got my answer.
"Kong Jun is saying that even if you are skilled in killing people, you should behave like a gentleman. You must not kill innocent people indiscriminately and become as bloodthirsty as a wild beast and be manipulated like a sword."
Kong Si's face showed a rare expression.
It's exciting and gratifying.
"Gentleman." Kong Si bowed his head to Xin again and said, "There is a successor to the art of embarrassment!" This chapter has been completed!
