Chapter Twenty-Six: The Blade of Infidelity - Fish Intestines

The logic of modern people is to think about problems with a harmonious society as the bottom line.

But the logic of the ancients is obviously much more realistic, and Wang Xu has always had doubts about the word 'people's hearts are not ancient'.

Although the ancients did not have much knowledge of science, they may have been more transparent than later generations in terms of human feelings, and they were able to clearly understand what was beneficial to them.

Just like the changes that Wang Xu brought to the Guzhu Kingdom, even if they didn't have the identity of the god emperor, they still knew that Wang Xu was a qualified leader, because Wang Xu's appearance brought substantial changes and benefits to the tribe.

Before Tu Tan was subdued, Mo Kui was also full of lies and deception to Wang Xu, but now, after crushing Mo Kui with violence, wisdom and spirit, the Lone Bamboo Kingdom has no lies and secrets about Wang Xu.

Looking at the Tu Shan mother and son kneeling in front of him, Wang Xu sighed, "I don't have much curiosity about your mother and son, as long as it doesn't pose a threat to the factors in the clan, I allow you to have secrets." ”

"The sinners are grateful to the emperor for his forgiveness, our mother and son are begging for the emperor's favor, and we want to leave." Tu Shan Niangzi knelt on the ground, her voice a little hoarse.

Wang Xu frowned, "Tu Tan should have told you everything, even so, you still decided to leave?" ”

"Mute children are weak and unable to adapt to the life of migration." Tu Shan's eyes were red and her eyes were resolute, "I know that the emperor needs my iron smelting skills, and I promise the emperor that after handing over the dumb child to my brother, he will definitely return to the clan and rely on the dagger that has been handed down." ”

Tu Shan took out a dagger from her waist and presented it with both hands.

Even Wang Xu, who had seen all kinds of beautiful craft knives in later generations, couldn't help but be a little dizzy when he saw this seven-inch dagger.

The handle of the knife, which is made of filigree inlaid with black gemstones, refreshes the time when Wang Xu's technique of gold and jade appeared.

The rhinoceros skin scabbard wrapped on the outside is inlaid with gemstones of seven colors, and the overall look is extremely luxurious.

What shocked Wang Xu the most was that when Wang Xu pulled out the dagger, he felt a familiar resistance, and the edge of the scabbard was wrapped in a magnet.

The dagger came out of the sheath without the so-called sound of gold and stone, and quietly shook his eyes.

The familiar pattern and bird seal on the dagger sword surface make Wang Xu feel a little like a different world, and the pattern and bird seal font of the Yue King Goujian sword are the same, and it is very likely that it is from the same person, or the hand of the same sword inheritance.

"Fish intestines." Wang Xu subconsciously read out the name on it.

Tu Shan's eyes widened instantly, and her face was full of shock.

"Is there really this sword?" Wang Xu touched the back of his cold sword and muttered.

"The Great .... Know this sword? Tu Shan's voice trembled.

"You passed on Ou Yezi?" Wang Xu squinted at Tu Shan's lady.

"Ou Yezi is the ancestor of Liezu." Tu Shan's body trembled even more.

"No wonder you're proficient in the art of iron smelting." Wang Xu put the fish intestine sword in the sheath, and looked at the dumb man who was speechless next to him, "With your family's inheritance, you are a master craftsman in any country, how can you fall here?" ”

Tu Shan Niangzi sobbed twice, "The criminal minister's family affairs dare not bother the emperor to be distracted, the right is that the criminal minister is blind, and he is not a person, and he has been implicated so far, if it were not for Mr. Tu and Mr. Mo to take it in, our mother and son would have been buried in the tiger's mouth." ”

"Your husband, has something to do with Mokui's plan?" Wang Xu frowned.

Tu Shan Niangzi whimpered, "Brother Sinner provided a dagger, as for the dead man, don't mention it." ”

Wang Xu pursed his lips, "Your brother is Mrs. Xu?" ”

"Exactly, my brother is in Qidi, and if he settles the dumb son, he will have no worries, and he will be willing to be a cow and a horse for the emperor for the rest of his life." Tu Shan said sadly.

Wang Xu understands Tu Shan's feelings as a mother, but he knows that Qi is not a safe place, after all, next year, Meng Tian's army will go north to attack Qi and destroy Qi with Wang Ben, but he is not good to speak directly now, feeling like he is going to forcibly leave their mother and son as laborers.

Just when Wang Xu was worried about what to say, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded.

"Mother, I'm not going."

Wang Xu raised his eyebrows and looked at the mute who spoke, although he guessed that he was not a mute, but he didn't expect that the voice was so pleasant, male and female.

"Bastard!" Tu Shan's lady was so frightened that she waved her hand and was about to slap the dumb child, but Wang Xu stretched out her hand to stop her.

Although Tu Shan Niangzi is a woman, she is a blacksmith after all, if it weren't for Wang Xu's good physical fitness, she really couldn't stop this slap.

"If you have something to say, don't hit the child." Wang Xu frowned and waved his hand, "I won't interfere in the affairs of your mother and son, if you want to go, you can go with Tu Tan, you don't need to tell me, as for whether you want to come back or not, it doesn't matter,"

"Mother, once the Qin State destroys the Yan Kingdom, you can think about who the next target is." The dumb man said with a calm expression.

Wang Xu looked at the dumb child again, this child really has an intelligence that is different from ordinary people.

"Shut up." Tu Shan scolded hatefully, and then after knocking Wang Xu three times on the dumb head, she dragged him away.

From beginning to end, the dumb child did not say a word.

"Ou Yezi's descendants, the legendary fish intestine sword." The king jumped in from the window and went straight to the fish intestine sword.

"Be careful, this sword is an artifact." Wang Xu said nervously.

"What?" Wang Li wondered.

"Nothing?" Wang Xu touched his nose in embarrassment: "Listening to the corner of the wall, it's not a gentleman's doing." ”

"It's a coincidence that I'm listening to you in the corner." Wang Li held the fish intestine sword and couldn't put it down, "I heard that Zhu Zhu used this sword to assassinate Wu Wang, and directly cut off the thousand-year-old national fortune of Wu." ”

"The fish intestine sword, unreasonable, unacceptable, subject to kill the king, son to kill the father, the blade of disloyalty." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"What a sword, what a good sword." Wang Li touched the fish intestine sword, as if he was touching the skin of a beauty, and looked intoxicated.

Being able to show such a disgusting expression on a sword, Wang Xu is really blessed.

"Ou Yezi's descendants, it's a pity to let go, with her, your hundred iron refining is already half successful." Wang Li reluctantly put down the fish intestine sword and said.

"If you like it, take it." Wang Xu chuckled.

"It's not the time yet." Wang Li shook his head, paused and said, "I hope that it will never be useful, the identity of that dumb child is a bit interesting." ”

"Why are you such a gossip from a big man?" Wang Xu said with a smile.

"What is gossip?" Wang Li wondered.

"It's the parents that women like." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"I don't believe you're not interested, I suspect he may be Yan Zidan's son." Wang Li lowered his voice.

Wang Xu smiled and changed the topic, "Even without her, refining iron is not a difficult thing, but it takes time to write, as for her choice, I have no right to interfere." ”

"You're the Emperor." Wang Li frowned: "How can you be like this?" ”

"The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other." Wang Xu chuckled and said, "Ink wolf, are they all up?" ”

"Get up, the sun is already on the head, and you are still going out today?" Wang Li frowned and said, "Otherwise, when my people come, it won't be too late to go to mining." ”

"Let's not dig a pit today, go cut some wood, I used all the dry firewood in the clan last night, and I can't light a bonfire today." Wang Xu smiled and got up.

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

"What the dumb man said is not unreasonable." Tu Tan leaned against the door and looked at the confrontation between Tu Shan's mother and son, and spoke.

"What do children know!" Tu Shan's eyes were red and swollen and she roared.

"At least the Qin State will unify the six countries, so that it is a foregone conclusion." Tu Tan sighed.

"Uncle Tu, is that person really Wang Li, the grandson of Wang Qian, the general of the Qin State?" The dumb child glanced at her mother and asked.

"Yes." Tu Tan nodded, "But these have nothing to do with you, you are now Tu Shandu, and the only thing you have to think about is how to live a stable life with your mother." ”

"Is there any place in this world?" There was an age-inappropriate mocking look on the mute's face.

The corners of Tu Tan's mouth moved, and he had nothing to say.

"I'd rather be a peace dog, don't be chaotic and leave people." Dumb sneered.

"Who taught you?" Tu Tan's pupils shrank.

"The Great." The mute's voice dropped by two points.

"Actually, I think it may be safer to follow the emperor." Tu Tan hesitated for a moment, and said to Tu Shan's lady, whose expression had begun to be sluggish.

"Brother Tu!" Tu Shan Lady came back to her senses.

"Wang Li will take the elite of the Wang family, at least in this jungle, he can be safe and worry-free, as long as he does not encounter a large number of Donghu people alive and survive, it is safer here than outside." Tu Tan said softly.

"How can the dumb child live in the days when Ru Mao drinks blood?" Tu Shan's lady cried again.

The dumb child obediently walked over and hugged her mother, "If we can really find a suitable habitat for farming, Sister Mo Lian said that the ghost grass is enough to feed us, and there is also Uncle Mo Wolf's prey, how can it be Ru Mao drinking blood?" ”

"Silly boy, we almost froze to death in the winter here, let alone in the wilder jungle depths." Tu Shan Niangzi cried.

"The Great doesn't look like the kind of person who would put himself in danger." The dumb child suddenly laughed, "Mother didn't find out that the emperor is a cautious and somewhat weird person?" I've never seen him put that backpack down, and he's always the furthest from the fire. ”

"What does this mean?" Tu Shan Lady wondered.

"My father once said that a person's character traits can be seen through the details, and the emperor is an extremely cautious and meticulous person." Dumb smiled and said, "Such a person, if he is not sure, he will not take risks, and you think about it, with his relationship with Wang Li, why don't he take us to seek the blessing of the Qin army, and now this road?" ”

Tu Shan Niangzi looked at her child stupidly, feeling a little strange.

"My advice is the same as that of the dumb child, but the final decision is still in the hands of your mother and son." Tu Tan looked at the dumb man deeply, and said, "Make a decision in an hour at the latest." ”

After saying that, Tu Tan left the hut, and the mother and son in the house fell into relative silence again.
