Chapter 49: Sound Wave Power
The two centurions turned around.
When Cao Jinxing came back, his appearance had changed: the famous sword [Xue Po] that was originally hanging at his waist was now placed horizontally behind his waist, and there was an Xiu Chun Knife in the place of the sword.
Still a very familiar looking knife.
"This is……"
The two captains took a closer look and were both surprised. They stood up quickly. This was the sword of the "Thirteen Guardians"!
Not all Jinyiwei of Zhenfu Division learn swordsmanship. For example, Shen Xiang is from Shushan Sword Sect and only wears a sword unless necessary. Zhenfu Liu is from Longhushan Tianshi Mansion and never uses weapons. But he is invincible with his "Five Thunder Palm"!
Many of the Embroidered Spring Swords of the Jinyiwei, like the Feiyu Clothes, are just symbols of status and the materials used are not top-notch.
There are only thirteen weapons that can truly be called magical weapons, representing the Thirteen Guardians.
These thirteen people are all outstanding!
Two of the Thirteen Guardians are unshakable, they are the North and South Pacification Envoys respectively. The remaining eleven are selected from the twenty-eight thousand households, six from the North Division and five from the South Division, which means they are the most trusted among the trusted!
Liu Zhenyuan gave him the knife, and his meaning was self-evident.
The attitudes of the two centurions changed subtly.
Even though he is only a deputy captain, he might be promoted to a higher rank someday, and a meteoric rise to prominence is just around the corner.
After some politeness, he handed the prison guarding job back to Cao Jinxing.
Cao Jinxing watched them leave and looked at Sun Lang and Su Yunsheng: "How are they? Are they seriously injured?"
"Fortunately..." Sun Lang covered his chest and grimaced in pain.
Su Yunsheng smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I would be so seriously injured just by being swept by the wind from the stick... The Tongyou Realm is too terrifying..."
"So, practice hard."
Seeing that they only had superficial injuries, Cao Jinxing felt relieved and prepared to go down and take a look.
"Sir, wait a moment."
Su Yunsheng remembered something, walked to the table next to him, and took out two things, a golden stick with a coiled dragon pattern and a short knife.
The former is the weapon of the Ape King, and the latter is the rare sharp blade that Jiang Aqi brought into the imperial prison to help Xiang Qianli escape.
"This was handed over by the jailer. I'll leave it to you to handle..."
"Just leave it there first and wait until Old Shen comes back."
Cao Jinxing waved his hand. He had no shortage of weapons now, so he was not very interested. He had to go down to the second and third floors first to check, especially the third floor, to make sure that the mechanism was ok.
Everything is normal on the second floor.
The third-floor Han cell was being repaired, and the two Shenfu Sect disciples in the secret room had already taken out the [Red Dragon] that was stuck in the core mechanism.
Completely scrapped.
"How is it? Is it a big impact?"
"Nothing serious."
A disciple wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "The master had already taken precautions. The core mechanism was equipped with a thousand-year-old resin. After the red dragon entered the core, it was immediately wrapped in the resin before it could be destroyed. The damage is not serious. We just need to replace it."
"That's good."
Cao Jinxing breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you both."
"Your Excellency is too polite."
The two disciples said hurriedly: "After all, the Red Dragon is the lost sacred object of our Divine Axe Sect. Now it is being used by the criminals and almost destroyed the mechanism... We are also responsible."
“That doesn’t have to be the case.”
Cao Jinxing said: "Tools are neither good nor bad, the only difference is the people who use them, it has nothing to do with you. I'll leave it to you two."
He simply exited the secret room.
Xu Quan was sitting outside the secret room, playing the huqin. He nodded slightly when he heard his words and said, "If everyone is as reasonable as you, there won't be so many troubles in the world."
"That's not reasonable."
Cao Jinxing didn't take it seriously, thinking to himself that's because you haven't seen me turn against you.
He became interested in sonic power and took the opportunity to ask about some precautions.
The "Wind Blowing Lotus Leaf Evil" that was used last time to cause damage was not threatening at all, it was just an invisible sonic blade, but this time the "Mind-Captivating Piano Sound" affected the state of mind and was far more advanced than the "Sixteen Heavenly Demon Dance". Even he was hit and had to be on guard.
Xu Quan also became interested: "Do you want to learn, sir?"
Cao Jinxing thought for a moment and said, "I'm a little interested, but I've never studied music."
"No problem."
Xu Quan said: "The way of music is all about talent. Your Excellency is naturally intelligent, so it is not difficult to learn. You will also be prepared to face the enemy in the future."
"If the senior is willing to teach, I am certainly willing to learn."
Cao Jinxing smiled: "Do you need a disciple?"
He was referring to the music teacher.
“No need.”
Xu Quan waved his hand and smiled, "The skills of our ancestors were meant to be passed down from generation to generation. Since you are interested, I will teach you everything I know."
Xu Yan is most famous for his erhu, but a master of music certainly would not specialize in one thing. When he reached that level, he was proficient in all things and was equally good at other instruments.
In addition to the Ji Qin techniques, there are also other guqin, flutes, and Xiaos, which Xu Quan has been practicing since childhood and is also proficient in. He allows Cao Jinxing to choose from a variety of musical instruments.
Cao Jinxing chose the flute.
The main thing is that this thing is easy to carry and looks cool!
Life in the imperial prison was boring, so Xu Quan prepared a lot of musical instruments to comfort himself. He went back to the secret room and took out a flute and gave it to Cao Jinxing.
The old and the young started chatting about music.
Cao Jinxing was a man of extraordinary comprehension. With just a little instruction from Xu Quan, he was able to apply what he had learned to other situations. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had digested the basic music theory. In another quarter of an hour, he was able to play short tunes with perfect fingering and pitch, and with a unique and spacious atmosphere.
Xu Quan was deeply impressed: "Your talent is so high, one in a million. If you focus on music, you will surely become a great master!"
Cao Jinxing smiled.
He was just curious for a moment, but he had no intention of becoming a musician .
Being able to play is only the foundation of the foundation of "Sound Wave Kung Fu". To reach a state that can captivate people's minds and souls, extremely high requirements are placed on the use of internal strength and the comprehension of the music.
Even if Cao Jinxing learns quickly, he won't be able to learn it overnight - fortunately he has this vacation, so he doesn't need to be too anxious.
When Shen Xiang returned to the imperial prison and went down to the third floor, he saw Cao Jinxing following Xu Quan's instructions very well. Combined with the previous battles, it was not difficult to guess his plan, and he couldn't help laughing.
"How is your study going? "
He held the Panlong stick and the short knife in his hands.
“So-so.”
Cao Jinxing put down his flute.
"Take these two things."
Shen Xiang directly threw the stick and knife to Cao Jinxing, pulled a chair next to him and sat down: "I heard from my elder brother that you like to collect elixirs. These two things should be able to exchange for a few good bottles."
"How many bottles?"
Cao Jinxing held a stick in one hand and a knife in the other, with an expression of "that's it" on his face.
“I have no idea.”
After this battle, the two of them were already very familiar with each other. Shen Xiang didn't care too much when he spoke, and pouted: "Ask your music teacher, what are these two things?"
Cao Jinxing looked at Xu Quan.
Xu Quan took the Panlong Staff, looked at it carefully, and said, "It is said that the Ming Sect Ape King practices the Shaolin Lingwu "Great Saint Staff Method" and holds the "Dinghai Shenzhen" in his hand. Seeing it today, it is really impressive. This should be a treasure from the Bodhidharma Cave, at least the upper sixth grade."
“This is for those who know what they are doing.”
Shen Xiang gave a thumbs up, and then said to Cao Jinxing: "Learn from this."
Cao Jinxing rolled his eyes.
"As for this short sword..."
Xu Quan picked it up and looked at it from left to right, but he was still unsure: "It can cut cold iron without any damage. The sharpness of this knife is rare in the world. Forgive my poor eyesight, I can only guess that it is a fifth-grade one."
"Five-grade lower level."
Shen Xiang nodded: "This knife is the Seven Star Knife, the legendary sword that Cao Cao used to stab Dong. It has always been the token of Liaodong Badao Villa. Five days ago, Yang Kaitian, the 'Blood Robe Buddha' of Maitreya Sect, killed the owner of the villa, Jiang Taichong, and took the knife away. I didn't expect it to be used here... Now you understand?"
The last sentence is asking Cao Jinxing.
Good guy...
The Seven Star Swords are out...
The corner of Cao Jinxing's mouth twitched, but he was used to planning tricks and didn't take it seriously.
"Thanks."
Cao Jinxing smiled and put them in his pocket without any hesitation: "Let's go to the ghost market tonight and sell them ! There should be a lot of people interested..."
Shen Xiang reminded: "Be careful, one is the weapon of the Mingzong Dharma King, and the other is the token of the Badao Villa. It's not easy to use either one."
"So, I'll go in my official uniform."
Cao Jinxing laughed and said, "Let's see who dares to attack me!"
“…”
Shen Xiang was speechless. You are so cruel!
