Chapter 13: The Origin of the Command (Part II)

In the following thirty years, this "Si Ming" was resident in the kitchen of Guanglu Temple in the Tang Empire, and the Su family became its worshippers.

Later, Huang Chao rebelled and broke through Chang'an, and a large number of officials fled. At that time, the head of the Su family was the son of Su Jianshan, and he was also a prisoner, so Xiao Su Jianshan escaped from Chang'an with "Si Ming" and his family.

Unexpectedly, they encountered a small group of rebel rangers on the way.

At this critical moment, the desperate Xiao Su Jian Shan secretly prayed to the "Si Ming" and said: If my family is finished, there will be no one to support you in the future, if you have supernatural powers, save us quickly...... Yunyun.

This is also Xiao Su's helplessness, a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

However, a miracle happened......

As soon as Xiao Su's idea of supervising food fell, the kitchen knife with the "Si Ming" flew out. There was a burst of lightning, and all seven rebel rangers fell to the ground and died, and each of them was beheaded.

The Su family, who escaped, has been grateful to "Si Ming" since then and enshrined it as the guardian spirit of the family. Since then, this "order" has been kept in the family ancestral hall, and it has not been revealed.

In the period of Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, Taoism flourished, and there were really many cultivators in the imperial court. At this time, the Su family had the biggest official, and the contemporary head of the family became the official of the seventh grade. This Su Taiguan also participated in the cultivation activities with the crowd, and after coming into contact with some cultivation books, Su Taiguan was also wondering what the origin of this "Si Ming" was.

After consulting many Taoist friends to no avail, he found Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain through his connection. Unexpectedly, after Zhang Tianshi saw this thing, he was also dumbfounded. He could see the "Commander", of course, but he couldn't make out what it was. Zhang Tianshi found his own brothers to study together, and several old Taoists checked countless classics, and pulled their beards for a long time, but they couldn't say why.

In the end, Zhang Tianshi said a guess that was not very certain: since [Si Ming] can make the sword sharp and incomparable, and can also use the sword to fly up and kill people, it is likely to be a "golden soul" born of the aura of heaven and earth. The general "golden soul" is also called "sword spirit" and "sword spirit", which are all artificially made, condensed by the gas of heptojin, and some have to add the soul of a person.

Naturally occurring "Golden Souls", although very rare, are not very valuable. Because it is difficult to be driven by people, it is not as handy as the man-made "Golden Soul". If you want to recognize the Lord with a natural "Golden Soul", it is almost entirely based on character, and if the character is not good, it is not a strange thing to be eaten by the Golden Soul. So for cultivators, this thing is a very frustrating existence.

However, although Zhang Tianshi's speculation has some truth, it is not entirely satisfactory.

At least one of his junior disciples disagreed, he thought: I have never heard of the saying that the "Golden Soul" still eats, and I can't find this kind of precedent in the classics. So it's certainly not a golden soul. As for why it loves food, only God knows.

....................................................................................

Although he didn't get a satisfactory answer, Su Taiguan didn't come in vain. Probably out of embarrassment, Zhang Tianshi gave away a few books of cultivation secrets and taught some tips in cultivation. Although these cheats are not uncommon in the Internet era, they are quite precious things in that era.

It was in this generation that the Su family began to become the so-called "Xiuzhen family", of course, there is a lot of water in it.

Su Taiguan found that [Si Ming] is indeed not easy to communicate, although it eats the offerings of the Su family, but it can't be driven at will, such as asking it to make the sword take off, it doesn't even pay attention. This made his dream of cultivating flying swords come to naught.

However, according to Zhang Tianshi's conjecture, this thing may have been cultivated for a long time, and it may be able to become a magic weapon or something.

So the disappointed Su Taiguan followed the method taught by Zhang Tianshi and carried out worship. Specifically, on the fifteenth day of each month, sacrifices such as grains, five birds, five vegetables, and five fruits are sacrificed with certain rituals.

But this sacrifice did not have any effect until the death of Su Taiguan.

However, [Si Ming] also showed several magical powers in the back, namely in the Jin soldiers to break through Kaifeng, the invasion of Yuankou, and the invasion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

After the Manchu occupation of China and the sinking of Shenzhou, the Su family no longer went out of office, returned to their hometown to open a restaurant, and definitely did not serve the barbarians. The last time he showed his supernatural powers was during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, when he killed a Japanese squad that went to the countryside to sweep away.

It was after this time that the Su family found that the intelligence of [Si Ming] seemed to have risen a lot. However, it is still only equivalent to a two- or three-year-old child.

....................................................................................

After killing 6 Japanese devils, the intelligence has risen from the level of a one-year-old baby to the level of a two-year-old child?

Although Old Man Su swore an oath back then, Su Xue still didn't believe it. Because it sounds ridiculous. If it can become smarter when it kills people, then it used to kill more Tartars, at least no less than 300, why hasn't it become smarter? Could it be that the level of devils is higher than that of Tartars, and it provides more experience points?

What are you kidding, this is not a game, the character can also farm monsters to upgrade and increase abilities.

If it's yin and evil, it's almost the same, they grow by devouring souls, and they need a huge number of souls in the growth stage. But [Si Ming] is different from Yin Sha, it doesn't have the function of devouring souls.

Of course, Old Man Su's words can't be completely fictional, after all, there is no need for him to brag about this kind of cowhide with his grandson.

Therefore, Su Zhe combined some information and historical records and came to his own opinion: among those devils and puppet soldiers who were killed, there was some unusual existence. The most likely thing is that they have some kind of substance on them that can increase the intelligence of [Si Ming], and after [Si Ming] killed them, he absorbed this substance by the way.

Therefore, in the past ten years, Su Ze's biggest concern, in addition to cultivation, is to find this kind of substance that can make [Si Ming] smarter. So far, though, nothing meaningful has been discovered. After all, that was decades ago, and the bones of those Japanese devils are gone, and they can't even be sure what their names are.

Although the [Si Ming] is very powerful, it is only powerful in the family legends. At least in front of Su Ze, it had never used supernatural powers such as "lightning and stone fire, flying knives to kill". I don't know if it's because the intelligence is too low to understand, or if it's deliberately ignored, anyway, except for its few old abilities, it won't do much other things at all.

Therefore, for Su Ze, the current role of [Si Ming] is to provide "sharp techniques" and "precision techniques", as well as the effect of repellent rats and insects.
