There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Chapter 295 Invisible Knife

Lü Hu, who had gotten up from the ground, did not dare to look at the ghost pill again. Instead, he went out of the hall and carried Fazhao, who was still unconscious, into the hall.

Then he found a wooden box on the body that had fallen outside. The original pill inside was gone. It should have been swallowed when dealing with Fazhao before.

He took the wooden box and tore off the remaining cloth on the body, wrapped his palms tightly, closed his eyes in the hall, held his breath, and put the ghost pill from the broken bones into the wooden box based on the position he had seen before.

At this time, Lü Hu took a deep breath.

Then he began to walk around in the hall to explore, trying to see if there were any martial arts secrets.

He first came to the stone tablet in the hall.

He brushed off the dust on it with his hand and found that the words on it were the same as those in the present world. It seemed that the words in this world had also been unified. Although there were some rare words that he did not recognize, it was not difficult to guess their meanings based on the context of the text.

Lu Hu quickly read the inscription on it, and regretfully found that what was recorded on it was not the martial arts secret book he wanted, but the life story of the tomb owner.

Through reading, it was learned that the owner of this tomb, named Bai Xiao, was a military general in the middle period of the previous dynasty.

In the battle to quell the rebellion launched by the prince at that time, he commanded the mountain-destroying cavalry and made a lot of military exploits, so he was awarded the title.

But in the subsequent court struggle, because he chose the wrong team, not only was his title and official position taken away in the second half of his life, but he was also exiled to Yunzhou at that time and imprisoned for life.

He had to be a powerless rich man under surveillance, and he was not allowed to step out of Yunzhou for life.

Later, he accidentally discovered this natural cave in Kuishan Mountain, and secretly transformed it into his own mausoleum with the level and specifications of the title he obtained that year. When he was 80 years old, he sneaked into this place and committed suicide.

At the last moment of his life, he lamented that life was like a fleeting moment, and it came to an end suddenly. Martial arts cannot live forever, and in the end, it is still one of the means and tools to strive for fame and fortune.

And people like him who were awarded titles for military merits relied too much on and believed in the sword in their hands, and ignored the art of power and strategy, which is a more powerful, invisible sword that kills without blood.

Often, just a few key words at the critical moment can easily end a person's political life.

This is more painful than killing him completely.

After regret, he listed the battles he was proud of in his life.

And Lu Hu also saw that what he saw in the illusion was a battle where this person made his fortune, the Battle of Yanya.

In that battle, as a person carrying the big banner, he successfully saved the big banner from the strong man who came to cut the banner in the army, stabilized the army's morale, and made great contributions, thus crossing the big gap between grassroots officers and middle-level generals.

So far, a lot of training resources have been obtained, and martial arts and official positions have progressed at the same time!

Lu Hu was not very interested in these things. After reading them quickly, he walked back and forth in the hall again.

After searching the hall, he did not gain anything. Then he smashed the stone tablet with a punch, and there was no interlayer or anything like that as he thought.

"He was obviously a military general, but he didn't even bury his martial arts with him. Instead, he wrote a lot about his life. When people get old and face death, is this the way they are?"

Lu Hu couldn't help but complain in his heart.

In this way, the only gain in this tomb was the huge ghost pill.

But Lu Hu couldn't use this ghost pill. It was only useful when he was dying and wanted to take someone with him.

Lu Hu then immediately sat cross-legged in the hall to recover.

After about two hours, he heard Fazhao's breathing suddenly became heavy, and soon, he saw Fazhao slowly opening his eyes.

Lv Hu was knocked unconscious by Kong Le in the village before, and Fazhao was waiting for him to wake up.

Now the situation has changed, and it is Lu Hu waiting for Fazhao to wake up.

The things happening in this world are really so wonderful!

When Fazhao just woke up, his state was similar to that of Lu Hu at that time. They both started with dull eyes, then slowly focused, and then the pupils moved, and then they woke up.

He looked at Lu Hu who was sitting cross-legged not far away and looking at him.

"Donor Lu Lu, is this hell? It seems that the monk's practice is really too poor, and he is finally sinking in hell!"

Hearing this, Lu Hu's face darkened.

"Master, why do you feel that I am in hell when you see me? Can't I go to the Western Paradise?"

Fazhao just woke up, and his mind is still confused, so he asked this question.

Hearing Lu Hu's dissatisfaction, he had completely sobered up.

He rarely showed some guilt and did not respond to Lu Hu's words.

"Master Lu, did you kill Chu Feng?"

"No, I made a deal with Chu Feng and let him take away my martial arts and the ghost pill in the tomb!"

Fazhao's face became nervous at first, but soon calmed down.

"I offended Master Lu before, but it was unintentional. I apologize to Master Lu here!"

"It was unintentional that hurt people!"

Lü Hu shook his head and sighed, then burst into laughter, "Hahaha, I still can't fool the master. Is my lying skill so bad that the master can see it at a glance?"

"Master Lu, you lied without changing your face, but I saw that Chu Feng's behavior did not seem to be a person who kept his promise. Not a word of his words could be trusted. He would definitely not spare our lives. But now that you and I are still alive, I guess Chu Feng has been sent away by Master Lu!"

"Hahaha, yes, that dog thing was really full of shit, and I killed him. Master, look over there!"

Lü Hu smiled and pointed to the door of the hall.

Fazhao wanted to turn his head to look, but the injury in his neck suddenly affected his brain, making his brain dizzy. He could only move his body stiffly, and saw a headless corpse lying at the door of the hall.

Fazhao saw this, his pupils shrank, and his heart was shocked.

"Master Lu, did you kill Chu Feng?"

The best result he could think of was that Lu Hu would force Chu Feng away. He never thought that Lu Hu could actually kill Chu Feng.

After all, Lu Hu's condition was similar to his at that time, and he really couldn't support another fierce battle.

"How could this person do this? He is really an extraordinary person who can do things that ordinary people can't do. I can't beat him in a different place. No wonder the abbot values ​​him so much. Did he see that he has a trait that I don't have? And this trait is what allows him to survive in desperate situations again and again?"

Fa Zhao didn't know that Lu Hu had magical powers. Facing such a thing that made people feel impossible, he could only come to this conclusion.

Lu Hu was very satisfied when he saw Fa Zhao's shocked expression.

Let me just use the sentence I just read on the stone tablet, "Although the visible knife is sharp, it is ultimately no match for the invisible knife. Words can also kill people!

At the critical moment, saying a few key words will often have a greater effect than we imagine!"
