Chapter 21: The Nameless Blade (2)
"What? Is it hard to understand? Seeing Shi Cheng's eyes widening when he looked at him, the old man looked at Shi Cheng and shook his head with a smile and said, "When I say servants, I mean those ancestors who are lying here. As for you, you want me to serve you when you come back here when you're dead! As for now, we are just brothers. ”
"Ugh! ……”
The old man's words were like a large bone stalk in Shi Cheng's throat, choking Shi Cheng speechless. Shi Cheng never thought that the old guy in front of him was talking about the relationship between master and servant
"Alright! That's a lot of nonsense, and it's time for me to give you your stuff too. As he spoke, the old man suddenly stood up from the futon. Then, walking up to the wall behind him, he raised his right hand and pressed it on a square brick on that wall.
"Quack ......"
As a tooth-souring sound came from the wall, the square brick that the old man was pressing with his right hand suddenly recessed into the wall, revealing a hole.
"This is the keyhole of the storage cabinet." The old man talked to Shi Cheng without looking back, and then stretched his right hand through the hole in the wall.
Judging from the old man's whole arm inside, the hole was very deep.
And as the old man stretched his right arm into the hole in the wall, the old man turned his head to look at Shi Cheng and said, "Here, any mechanism needs a key to open and close. And the key is the arm of the two of us. ”
"Click! ......" As the old man's words fell, there was a sudden crisp sound in the wall. And with that crisp sound, the wall to the left of Shi Cheng suddenly and slowly slid into the wall on the left.
"This is ......" Shi Cheng couldn't help but stand up from the ground and take two steps in front of the wall that was retracted into the wall on the side. No, it should be said to walk in front of the storage cabinet where something is placed.
Because, he saw that in a storage cabinet, there was a large bow with a black light.
This big bow is as thick as an arm, and the bow is about one and a half meters long. On the body of the worker, the seal is engraved with something that I don't know whether it is a talisman or a pattern with some meaning, or something that is a font. And what surprised Shi Cheng the most was that although the bow body of this big bow was as thick as an arm, the bowstring was as thin as a hair. In Shi Cheng's eyes, the bowstring of this big bow looked so incongruous. Shi Cheng felt that this bowstring should not be so thin......
I don't know if the old man can really see through Shi Cheng's thoughts. When he found Shi Cheng's eyes looking at his big bow, he smiled and asked Shi Cheng, "What?" Do you think that the bow and strings of such a strong bow are incompatible? ”
"Hmmm! ……”
Hearing the old man's question, Shi Cheng nodded at the old man and said, "The body of this bow is so thick, but the bowstring is so thin, how do I look at it, how do I feel awkward!" ”
"Hehe......" Hearing Shi Cheng's words, the old man chuckled, and then said, "When I first saw this bow, I also saw this bow awkwardly. But now, how I see how much I like this bow. ”
As the old man and Shi Cheng spoke, the wall had completely tightened into the wall on the side.
Pulling his right arm out of the hole in the wall, the old man walked over to the storehouse where the big bow was kept, and reached out to take it off a hook.
"This bow is a weapon left to me by my ancestors. It's called 'Haoran'! ”
When the old man said this, he held the handshake of the bow with his left hand, and gently stroked the patterns engraved on the bow with his right hand, and said softly: "The bowstring of this bow, recorded in the information left to me by my ancestors, is made of silk spit out by an ancient ice silkworm in the belly of the Tianshan Mountains for nearly 10,000 years. Although it looks very thin, it has a lot of power. And the bow body of this bow is recorded in the information that the ancestor was sharpened from the keel of a unicorn in the deep sea. Although it seems that the bow body and the bowstring are very incongruous, the arrow feathers shot from this bow have the power to collapse the mountain. ”
"Here, I'll show you." After the old man finished speaking, he handed the "Haoran Bow" in his hand to Shi Cheng.
Listening to what the old man said, Shi Cheng really wanted to ask for this bow to come over and take a look. However, because the old man didn't speak, and Shi Cheng was almost angry at the old man before, he thought for a long time when the old man was talking, but finally didn't open his mouth. Now seeing that the old man actually handed the bow to himself for a closer look, Shi Cheng stretched out his hand to the bow without thinking.
"Cool! Chill to the marrow! This was the first sensation that came back to Shi Cheng's mind when the tip of his right finger touched the bow. And as Shi Cheng's right hand held the bow, a comfortable feeling of Nan Yiyan instantly drove away the coolness that had just been taken into the bone marrow. Holding the bow, all Shi Cheng could feel was the refreshing coolness transmitted from the bow, and an incomparable sense of comfort. However, as the old man opposite Shi Cheng released his right hand, an extremely cold chill suddenly came from the bow again. This time, Shi Cheng even felt that the blood veins in his hands and arms were frozen like pins and needles. And as the old man let go of his right hand, Shi Cheng suddenly felt that the bow in his hand suddenly became as heavy as a mountain.
"Smack! ......" At the moment when the old man let go of his right hand, the "Haotian Bow" that should have been taken over by Shi Cheng to watch suddenly fell from Shi Cheng's hand to the ground, making a crisp sound. And at this time, Shi Cheng's shout came out.
"Ahh ……”
As if he had been electrocuted, Shi Cheng held his right hand in his left hand and jumped back sharply. Then, with his left hand, he rubbed back and forth between his right arm and right hand.
"What's wrong?" Suddenly seeing Shi Cheng's strange appearance, the old man asked with some doubts.
"This bow recognizes people!" Hearing the old man's question, Shi Cheng rubbed his arms while looking at the big bow on the ground and said.
"Huh?" Hearing Shi Cheng's words, and looking at Shi Cheng's way of rubbing his arms, the old man picked up the big bow that Shi Cheng threw on the ground with some doubts.
"I see!" Suddenly, the old man who was staring at the big bow suddenly looked up at Shi Cheng and said, "It must be that this bow already has an aura......
Shi Cheng listened to the old man's words like a book from heaven, and his head became two big.
Finally, just when Shi Cheng felt that his nerves were about to collapse, the old man ended his gushing, self-righteous speech. Then, pointing to a "small" knife with a sheath on a knife holder in a storage cabinet, he said to Shi Cheng: "This is the knife left for you by your ancestors!" ……”
Hearing the old man's words, Shi Cheng followed the old man's gaze and looked at the "small" knife on the knife holder, and his eyes couldn't help but straighten.
Why? Because, the appearance of the "small" knife with a sheath is too strange. Its handshake was actually on the back of the knife. As for the appearance of the blade, although the blade is still in the scabbard, Shi Chengguang can guess the shape of the blade just by looking at the square appearance of the scabbard. As for what it looks like, think of a kitchen knife without a handle......
"This ...... Is it the ...... 'knife' left to me by my ancestors? Looking at the kitchen knife without a handle on the knife stand, Shi Chengzhen didn't know what to say.
"What? Think this knife doesn't look good? Not as powerful as your broadsword, isn't it? Looking at the indescribable look on Shi Cheng's face, the old man asked Shi Cheng with a smile.
"Hehe......" Hearing the old man's question, Shi Chengqiang smiled at the old man twice. Then he turned his head to look at the "kitchen knife" and did not speak. Even a fool understands what he means.
"There are some things that can't just be looked at." As if he expected Shi Cheng to be like this after seeing the knife, the old man said a word to Shi Cheng with deep meaning. Then, looking at the knife on the knife holder, he whispered, "Take it down and take a look!" It's yours until you die......"
Hearing the old man's words, especially the somewhat disappointed look in the old man's eyes when he said that, and the tone of his voice when the old man asked Shi Cheng to take out the knife and take a closer look, all made Shi Cheng feel that the meaning he had just expressed was a little too direct. Just ask, the person who can build such a majestic underground palace, how bad will the knife left to his descendants? Belch! Although, this knife left for himself really looks a little ......
Under the old man's gaze, Shi Cheng stretched out his right hand to take the "kitchen knife" on the knife stand.
In Shi Cheng's opinion, this "kitchen knife" should not be too heavy. However, just when Shi Cheng's hand was held in the hollow handshake on the back of the knife and he wanted to pick up the kitchen knife, something unexpected happened.
Shi Cheng never thought that he would pick up the kitchen knife without it......
"Bang! ……”
With a dull thud, the kitchen knife on the knife holder fell back to the knife holder with a heavy impact. The second time, Shi Cheng used both hands to pick up the "kitchen knife". However, this time, although the "kitchen knife" was picked up by Shi Cheng with both hands, it was only two centimeters away from the knife holder, and it fell back to the knife holder.
"It's heavy!"
Seeing that Shi Cheng didn't pick up the kitchen knife twice, the old man who stood beside Shi Cheng and looked at Shi Cheng with a smile on his face said with a smile: "Remember! At no time should your mind be blinded by the superficial appearance of something! This time, even if it's my old brother, I'll teach you a lesson! ”
"Ugh! ……”
Hearing the old man's words, Shi Cheng almost died of anger. Feelings, this old thing has long known that this "kitchen knife" can't be picked up by himself at all, and he is playing with himself!
However, although Shi Cheng thought that the old man next to him was playing tricks on himself, he didn't dare to show it on his face. He didn't want this old thing to teach himself any more lessons.
Looking at the old man, Shi Cheng looked at the old man with a little more modesty in his eyes.
"Brother, you said that this knife was left to me by my ancestors, but I can't pick it up at all!"
This time, Shi Cheng, whose head finally opened up, began to have a relationship with the old man next to him......
