Chapter 57: Wanbaolou 3
In Wanbao Building, under the explanation of the maid on the side, Tie Xuan had a more detailed understanding of all kinds of weapons, but his mind always came up with what Master Mo had said to him that night, "Knives don't kill people, because the person who kills people is you, not the knife, when you have killing intent in your heart, it doesn't matter whether you have a knife or not."

Seeing that the young man in front of him seemed to be in deep thought, the maid looked happy, knowing that the purchase of weapons was done, so she did not bother, and stood silently on the side, waiting for the young man's decision.
After a long time, Tie Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed at a short knife that was as black as ink and more than a foot long, and said, "That's it." ”
"This one, Childe is really good-eyed. The maid picked up the knife from the wooden frame and smiled at Tie Xuan, "Although this knife is not a Yuan weapon, the material is made of fine steel, and then a small amount of meteorite iron is added, the material is strong and not easy to break, it can be described as a fine product under the Yuan weapon." ”
"yes, I just look more pleasing to the eye. Tie Xuan said in a low voice, hanging his head, he was really embarrassed by the maid's praise.
"That's why I said that Childe's vision is good, and if you pick it at will, it will be a high-quality product. The maid said with a smile.
"Xiao Xuan, have you chosen?" Mo Zaiti walked over, looked at the knife in the maid's hand, and said with a smile.
"Master Mo, I have chosen, this is the knife. Tie Xuan replied.
"It's a knife, but most people in the village use knives, so you can learn without a lot of detours. Mo Zaiti said with a smile.
Tie Xuan didn't know how to answer Mo again, so he had to still hang his head and be silent.
"How much?" Mo asked again.
"Because this knife has a small amount of meteorite iron added, the price is slightly high, it is 1,200 taels of silver. If the two of you really buy it, the store will also send a warranty certificate, voucher, if the knife is damaged within one year, you can repair it for free. The maid smiled.
"One thousand two hundred taels, it's indeed too high, but as you said, if you add meteoric iron, it's worth the price, not to mention after-sales service. Mo Zai nodded and said, then turned his head to look at Tie Xuan and said, "Is it it, do you want to take another look, as a gift for your coming-of-age ceremony, I don't mind if you choose a better one." ”
"No, Master Mo, that's it. Tie Xuan said softly, raised his head, and looked firm.
"Okay, since you like it, so be it. Mo said again, then took out a golden ticket from his bosom, handed it to the maid, and said, "That's it, you go and issue a receipt." ”
"Take the two of you a little, and the little maid will go back when she goes. After receiving the golden ticket, the maid bowed, and then took the knife and went to prepare.
"Waiting here is waiting, let's take a look around. Mo Zaiti laughed.
"Yes, Master Mo. Tie Xuan said.
Immediately, the two began to wander around the first floor, and when Tie Liang came out of nowhere, Tie Xuan and Mo Zaiti had already collected the knives and sundries sent back by the maid, and they also walked around the hall on the first floor of Wanbao Building, looking at many weapons.
"How's it going, it's done?" Mo Zaiti asked with a smile.
"Yes, Master Mo, everything is going well. Tie Liang said with a smile, with a red face, but there was no meaning in his words.
"Then let's go. Seeing this, Mo Zaiti smiled indifferently.
"Master Mo, since the matter has been completed, let's leave it at that, the people in the village are still waiting for me to go back as soon as possible." Out of Wanbao Tower, Tie Liang glanced up at the sky, and said with a slightly anxious face.
"Well, be careful on the road, tell Tie Ming when you go back, I will help him with that matter, so that he doesn't have to worry, just go into retreat. Mo said again.
"Master Mo's words, Tie Liang must tell his brother when he goes back, and I also wish Master Mo and the three of them a smooth journey and an early return. Tie Liang said solemnly.
In front of the post station, Tie Xiaosan's face was a little anxious and kept looking at the streets on both sides, and from time to time he looked up at the sky, walking back and forth in circles.
Finally, when two familiar figures who were getting closer and closer appeared in sight, Tie Xiaosan's face immediately changed with joy and hurriedly greeted him.
"Master Mo, Tie Xuan, it can be regarded as waiting for you, if you don't show up again, I can't help but go to you. Tie Xiaosan said with a smile.
"Hey, Tie Xuan, do you have the knife you just bought, come, show me. Tie Xiaosan caught a glimpse of the pitch-black scabbard that Tie Xuan was holding tightly, and said with a smile.
"Wow!", the knife quickly unsheathed without hindrance, and under the sun, the pitch-black knife body did not shine at all.
"Hey, that's good. Tie Xiaosan's fingers lightly touched the blade, and immediately retracted it like lightning, then looked at Tie Xuan and said with a smile. "How much?"
"One thousand two hundred taels of silver. Tie Xuan said.
"One thousand two hundred taels, oh, no wonder, usually the price of the knife is only about seven or eight hundred, and there are three or four hundred cheaper, this price has increased several times, and the knife is really not ordinary. Tie Xiaosan suddenly realized.
"Okay, don't be poor, have you chosen a horse?" Mo Zaiti said with a smile.
"I have chosen, they are all good horses that travel thousands of miles a day, but the price is really not cheap, a horse costs thirty taels of silver a day, and I talked to the steward about the price for a long time, and my mouth is almost worn out, until he knows that I am going to rent it for three months, and I am willing to pay five taels of silver a day. "Tie Xiaosandao.
"Hahaha, you are deliberately asking me for credit, and you are not satisfied with the loss of five taels of silver a day. Mo Zaiti said with a smile.
"How dare I, but the price is too expensive, and it's not to buy his horse, it's just to rent, and it costs so much silver, not to mention a deposit of 1,000 taels in advance. Tie Xiaosan explained with an embarrassed smile.
"There's no way around it, the world of martial artists is like this, you can make money, and you can spend money even more. Don't mention it again.
"Yes, I can make money, and I can spend money even more, Master Mo's words really went to my heart. Tie Xiaosan seemed to have some feelings.
"Okay, don't be emotional, hurry up and do something, two horses, one for me and Xiao Xuan, one for you and one for each person, this is a hundred taels of golden tickets, go." Mo Zaiti took out a golden ticket from his bosom and handed it to Tie Xiaosan with a smile.
"Understood, Master Mo. Tie Xiaosan took it with a smile, and then went to do his own errands.
"Xiao Xuan. Mo Zaiti turned his head and looked at Tie Xuandao.
"Master Mo?" Tie Xuan raised his head and said, a little panicked in his heart, not understanding what Master Mo wanted to say.
"Do you remember how much money I spent today?" Mo asked again.
"Five thousand four hundred taels of silver. Tie Xuan said without thinking.
"Well, you remember very well, you seem to be very interested in this. Mo Zaiti said with a smile.
"Nope. Tie Xuan said lightly.
"Haha, Xiao Xuan, do you know why I'm asking you this question?" Mo asked again.
"I don't know. Tie Xuan said.
"I'm trying to make you remember one thing, you don't have a prominent family background, and you don't have the cultivation of a sect, and the path of a martial artist is actually very difficult for you to follow. Don't mention it again.
"I didn't think about it that much. Tie Xuan lowered his head and said stubbornly.
At this time, he really wanted to plug his ears and didn't want to hear Mo Shi's voice anymore, because he had already guessed a few words that the other party was going to say next, and it must be a comforting word for him to suspend revenge.
"I know that you only remember your grandmother's revenge in your heart now, but don't forget, in addition to revenge, you are also a martial artist, eating, weapons, and traveling, everything needs money, and you, do you have this money?" Mo Zaiti's eyes burned, and he looked at Tie Xuan and asked in a low voice.
"I, I didn't. Hearing this, Tie Xuan was stunned, and with one hand couldn't help but touch the money bag in his arms, where there was all his belongings - two hundred taels of silver.
As for Master Mo's questioning, he only fully understood at this time, but he never thought that everything Master Mo did today had been calculated from the beginning, in order to wait for this moment to ask him questions.
"Think about it for yourself, in this world, without the corresponding strength, it is never so simple to do something. Mo Zaiti said lightly, looking at Tie Xuan with deep meaning, his eyes were incomparably soft.
Under the sun, Tie Xuan looked at his slightly thin shadow a little stunned, it looked so helpless, and it was alone.
After a while, Tie Xiaosan led two horses out of the gate of the post station, and said with a smile, "Master Mo, the matter has been done, you can go." ”
However, when his eyes skimmed to Tie Xuan, his face was a little puzzled, and he said, "Hey, what's wrong with Tie Xuan, his mood looks very low, haven't you ever ridden a horse, and you're a little scared." ”
"I don't mind if you shut up, when you're dumb. Mo Zaiti said with a smile, and then said to Tie Xuan, "Get on the horse, on a section of the town, you first get used to the feeling of riding a horse, and when you get out of the town, you won't have time." ”
"Yes, Master Mo. Tie Xuan said, his voice was a little hoarse, and he still lowered his head.
So on the next road, Mo Zaiti led the horse and walked on the street, teaching Tie Xuan some tips on horseback riding by the way, and Tie Xiaosan gaged on the side, and there was a lot of fun along the way.
It wasn't until he left the town that Mo Zaiti turned over and got on his horse, and then flicked his whip, and immediately the green horse galloped with his hooves up and galloped into the distance.
