Chapter 14: A Broken Knife
οΌ
"Wow!" Chi Chao put the knife into the scabbard, then looked at the old man and said, "Then what is the old gentleman going to do to give me this rogue knife?"
"I have a very good relationship with you, and you are also an easy-going person looking at your face. Then give you a thousand taels of silver, and I will give you this rogue knife." The old man said as he caressed the pine-sheathed rogue knife.
"A thousand taels?" Chi Chao lowered his head and thought about it.
"You have to be rare, if you pass my village, there will be no store for me. If you make a decision, you will be ready to participate sooner." The old way is "follow the good path".
The corners of Chi Zhuan's mouth rose slightly, and then calmly said one of his thoughts to Lao Dao.
"What do you think, old man? This rogue knife should be borrowed from you first, and then I will return it to you when I win the crown of the selection conference, and the value of this knife will be immeasurable. What do you think?"
When the old man heard this, he was so angry that his beard was crooked.
Your sister, want to prostitute for nothing? Want me to generate electricity with love? Why don't you just ask someone to give you the title of champion of the selection meeting?
"Since you can't afford it, it means that you and I have no chance. See you later."
Lao Dao turned his head and didn't speak directly, not as enthusiastic as he was just now.
He was about to leave, but Chi Chao suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
"Sir, I only have ten cents on me, and I don't have any more. If you sell it to me today, I'll give you all my money, or I'll be empty-handed." Chi Chao pulled the old man down and begged humbly.
"Shiwen?" Lao Dao almost "spat out the fragrance", "You want to eat fart!" My Ancestral Rogue Knife is only worth ten yuan?"
The old man originally thought that Chi Chao would still hold him and beg him to sell him a few hundred taels of silver less than the Rogue knife, but what he didn't expect was that this kid's bargaining was a cliff-like cut. Directly cut back more than the purchase price.
This rogue knife is a wholesale mass production goods from Lao Dao's blacksmith shop friend's shop in Xiguo, each one is seven yuan, and every ten years he relies on reselling these fake rogue knives to those foreign wronged leaders, and then get the money that can enjoy ten years of quality life.
But today, the old man met a strange thing.
The strange thing is that this person directly cut the price to about the purchase price, which relative taught him this bargaining method.
"Then forget it, bother the old gentleman." Chi Yan bowed to the old man.
Chi Chao said goodbye to Lao Dao, turned around and left, not giving Lao Dao time to react at all.
When the old man reacted, Chi Chao had already walked out more than ten meters, today was the first day of opening in the old land, how could there be a reason that he couldn't sell things on the first day?
The old man gritted his teeth and made a big decision.
When Chi Chao walked out for dozens of meters, he was pulled by his sleeve, and when he looked back, he found that it was the old man chasing him.
"What's wrong? Old man?" Chi Chao calmly looked at the panting old way.
"Look, young man. You and I are very fateful, I will be a favor with this rogue knife, and I will sell it to you for ten cents. But the requirement is that you can't tell anyone that you bought this knife for ten cents."
The old man enthusiastically drew the rogue knife from the pine scabbard at his waist.
"Thank you, sir." Chi Chao took the rogue knife, took out ten cents and handed it to the old man.
"I wish you the crown, young man." The old man weighed the money in the palm of his hand a few times, and carefully put it in his pocket. "I'll go first."
The old man is gone, and he goes to find the next wronged man.
Chi Chao smiled, and after watching the old man leave, he took out the tattered Rogue Knife and scanned the blade of the entire Rogue Knife.
Although this rogue knife is a shoddy product, it is extremely in line with the style of the Xiguo rogue knife in terms of structure, as long as you sharpen it on the whetstone a few times, you can still make an ornamental and collectible.
But to take it to the ring and fight, it is to find death.
Any other person's Rogue knife, as long as you cut it down with force, you don't need to pick it up skillfully, you can cut this Rogue knife in two.
Pond Chaos
smiled, the purple light in his eyes flashed, and the rust on the rogue knife in his hand disappeared in an instant, and in his hand, he was holding a brand-new rogue knife.
The pine scabbard's rogue knife was held in Chi Chao's arms, and he squeezed through the crowd and into the empty realm next to the ring.
Chi Chao held the rogue knife with the scabbard of the pine tree in his hand, and he couldn't help but accept the contemptuous eyes from others, and it was simply wishful thinking for a hillbilly to want to get a ranking in this selection meeting.
Just by looking at your sword, I know I've won. This is the idea of many Xiguo students.
I don't know when, Xiguo students have developed a habit, that is, whose knife looks very luxurious on the outside, or there is an emotion that feels that their knife is not as good as others after seeing other people's knives, then the owner of this knife will win without a fight.
This is also related to a tradition in the Xiguo country, which also starts with a story.
The name of this story is [Changji Gift Knife], Changji is the most powerful rogue in Fanbang, and no one in the entire Fanbang is his opponent, and he has a habit.
That is, every time he defeated an opponent, he would set a gem in his Rogue knife, and more and more people would be defeated at his feet, and his Rogue knife would barely have a gem on it.
Until one day, an eighteen-year-old boy came to a township and county, and he challenged Changji with a broken knife bought from a blacksmith shop, which the boy had saved money from three years of hard labor, and he was very rare, and he slept with it every night.
Changji faced the battle, and it stands to reason that he could refuse this young man's challenge, but he wanted to take this challenge as his own battle of sealing the knife, and after winning this one, he would never draw his sword again, nor would he inlay gems on the scabbard.
On that day, the sun was shining brightly, and the sun was white and red.
Under the scorching sun, Changji's sweat soaked all the clothes on his body, and the boy opposite was the same.
The only difference is that the boy only has his knife in his eyes, not the clothes on his body.
The boy and Changji tried it several times, no matter up or down, Changji slashed the boy's thigh, bleeding all over the ground, and he himself was stabbed in the left shoulder socket by the boy, and the whole left hand could not be raised.
They all had only one last stab left, and if they used that last stab, both of them would fall.
The difference is that the person who falls first is the one who loses his life, and the one who falls last is just overexerting himself and passing out.
"Drink!" Changji held the knife in front of him and ran towards the boy.
The boy also yelled, "Drink!"
In the same way, he raised his broken knife in front of him and stabbed at Changji who ran over, and the two slashed at each other at the moment of their last and most powerful sword!
The moment they fought, "Chubby!" Bang.
In the end, Changji was the first to fall, but he stopped halfway with a knife to support his body and prevent him from falling.
The boy behind him had already fallen, breathing slightly on the ground.
Changji smiled bitterly, looked at his gem-studded Rogue knife, and turned to look at the Rogue Knife in the young man's hand, which had been broken in half.
If the boy was holding a good knife, he would probably be a corpse that couldn't speak by now, and Changji suddenly had an idea before he died, and he threw his rogue knife to the boy on the ground.
"What?" The boy looked suspiciously at the ornate rogue knife thrown in front of him.
"I gave it to you." Chang Ji said.
"Why?" The boy's eyes were full of puzzlement.
"I can't go any further, my sword is my way. From now on, you will continue my way." Changji spoke, and finally exhaled his last breath to sleep.
After the boy was cured, he took Changji's knife for a long time, killing many people, and the gems on the scabbard fell off in one battle after another, and finally became its original form.
And the owner of this knife, that young man, has become the strongest rogue in the worldββββ Tao Qian!
Whoever has a good-looking knife is the one who has been given a knife after defeating many people, this
The idea is prevalent in the cognition of some young cultivators in the Xiguo Kingdom.
Obviously, Chi Chao, who is holding a broken knife, is not taken seriously, and all the contestants do not regard Chi Chao as a real opponent.
However, the biggest dark horse in this selection conference is him Chi Chao.
"This classmate, can I take a look at your knife?" Chi Chao, who was meditating, was suddenly woken up by a voice.
He looked up and saw that it was actually the daughter of the Xie family, and the laureate recognized by the selection conference ----- Xie Lingxiu.
Chi Chao was very strange, why Xie Lingxiu would see his existence, maybe the knife in his arms did attract attention, but it would not let Xie Lingxiu put down his body like this and find him in front of him.
"What? You have a crush on my sword?" Chi Yan asked.
Xie Lingxiu felt a sense of familiarity when she heard this voice, but she was not suspicious.
Xie Lingxiu came to Chi Chao for only one purpose, and that was the rogue knife on Chi Chao's body. On this rogue knife, Xie Lingxiu sensed a special power.
This kind of power is different from the soul power of heaven and earth, although cultivators like to use the soul power of heaven and earth to refine their weapons, but how can there be heaven and earth soul power to give people a feeling of heart palpitations.
Xiguo's cultivation method is [Dao], and their cultivation threshold is something called [Heavenly Trench], and after stepping over a heavenly moat, you can see more things in your own original vision.
Xie Lingxiu has always hidden her Dao Realm, saying to the outside world that her Dao Realm only has three heavens, but in fact, she has already reached the six heavens.
It is only when you reach the Sixth Heaven that you can perceive the demonic energy emitted by Chi Chao, and the Dao Realm, like Buddhism, has a special perception of demonic nature.
Xie Lingxiu had never been in contact with demonic energy, and now he suddenly appeared in front of Chi Chao just because of a [curiosity], and he had nothing else to think about.
"Show me your knife, okay?" Xie Lingxiu said again, her tone was mixed with the taste of begging, coupled with her very close face, she was angry at Chi Chao, how could Chi Chao bear to refuse.
With a push of his hand, Chi Chao handed over the rogue knife in his arms to Xie Lingxiu's hand.
"Look, look, you can see as long as you want."
