Chapter 330: Knife
According to Erika Machida, the ancestors of the Machida family did produce capable people! But it's not an ancestor, but in modern times, it's the grandfather of Qin and Qing's grandfather, at that time, just in time for the Restoration, Machida Taro, who wanted to get ahead, used all his savings to buy a katana and went to Tokyo, but he didn't stand in line, and followed the shogunate, so in the end, not only did he fail to get ahead, but he also broke his hand because of the armed battle, and finally fled back to Gunma in disgrace......
But in the end, people who have been to big cities and seen the big world have been somewhat nourished, so after returning to his hometown, Machida Taro did not give up the toss, and somehow got in touch with the local Haoqiang, and then Zhan Zhuan got some money and built the current big house for his family.
Other than that, Machida Taro didn't leave anything for the family......
Oh, and it can't be said that there is nothing at all, and the knife he used to beg for a living is still left.
Of course, it is no longer the original one - the one that has been cut open because of the fierce battle, and it was directly eliminated and thrown away in the later stage, but a good knife that he deliberately spent a lot of money to get back after returning to his hometown, in order to show his bravery!
It was not sold for various reasons, and it was stored in the warehouse at home as a souvenir, and it was useless except for taking it out and maintaining it every once in a while.
It's also pitiful.
As for my grandfather's father......
didn't catch up with the good time, so although the blessing of Taro Machida was also regarded as having some connections in Anzhong City, so he didn't starve to death, but he didn't start the family, so even Qin Heqing's grandfather didn't get prominent, so he could only live in the old house, although it was not enough to live, but it was more than enough, until Qin Heqing's mother, the eldest of the Machida family, married Qin Heqing's father, and the life of the Machida family was good.
This is also the reason why Machida Yuanzi is so close to Qin Heqing's family-
Because in the past, she was not less helped and nurtured by Qin Heqing's family, so she is naturally grateful and remembered.
"Can I take a look at the knife?" Hearing this, Qin and Qing Dynasty's own grandmother asked.
"It's just a knife, what's so nice about it." Erika didn't care.
"After all, it's a weapon used by Taigong to break into the family business, and it's a treasure of our Machida family, so I'm inevitably curious." Qin Heqing said coquettishly with a big face.
"Okay, I'll get it for you." Seeing this, the old lady Hui Lixiang didn't want to say anything more, and stood up and said.
"No, no, you tell me where it is, I'll just go get it myself." Qin Heqing hurriedly stopped.
After all, he is fifty or sixty years old, and although he seems to be in good health and has no problems, who knows what is going on inside?
What's more, the physical fitness is also there, in case it really makes a good deal because of this little thing, then Qin Heqing's heart will not be happy.
"In the back room, in the back room, in the box on the top of the innermost cabinet, remember to be careful, don't fall." Hui Lixiang didn't force it when she heard this, so she sat down again, rushing to Qin and Qingdao.
"Okay."
Then Qin Heqing got up and moved quickly towards the back room.
Although it was the first time he came to Machida's hometown, it didn't mean that Qin Heqing, who was the original body, was also the first time to come to Machida's hometown, and he didn't lack memories of the Machida family and understood the layout of the Machida family's house, so it didn't take much effort for Qin Heqing to find the warehouse that Hui Rika said, opened the door, and looked inside-
Instantly, a room with an area of about 30 square meters came into his eyes!
It is filled with all kinds of old or modern or unused miscellaneous items, scattered throughout the room, occupying half of the small space of the room, leaving only a passage almost one person wide to the inner end of the room.
Qin Heqing did not hesitate, after taking a look around the room, he went straight into the warehouse, followed the path to the innermost cabinet, and with a slight cushion, he took off the rectangular wooden box placed on the top layer of the cabinet, gently blew off the floating ash that fell on the surface, and opened the sliding lid of the box.
Suddenly, a katana with a very good maintenance and a pitch-black and bright scabbard came into his eyes.
The sheath was tied with a red rope, and the hilt of the sword was attached to the yellow tail, lying quietly in the box, making it look more like a craft than a murderous weapon.
Of course, this is also related to the experience of this knife, if it is a real killing weapon, it cannot be preserved so well and so brightly.
Then Qin Heqing closed the lid, turned around and walked out of the warehouse with the wooden box, and returned to the front living room.
"Is that it?"
"Well, that's it. When your grandfather is around, he likes to take it out and play with it for a long time, and he doesn't know what is so dangerous about it. Erika complained with a reverie on her face.
I don't know if I'm complaining about the knife, or if I'm complaining about my old man's incomprehensible amorousness?
"Then it seems that my grandfather is still a knife lover." Qin Heqing smiled dryly.
Then open the lid again and take the knife out.
"Huh!"
Qin Heqing used a slight force in his hands and pulled out the knife.
The cold light suddenly appeared, and the cold air of the forest surged out, forcing people's cheeks.
"What a strong spirit." Qin Heqing was surprised.
This kind of strength is not something that ordinary handmade swords can have, and it is difficult to have similar sharpness if it is not a famous product or a weapon created by a famous artist!
It can be seen that the origin of this knife should be extraordinary, and it should be a good thing that Machida Taro spent a lot of effort to get back then.
It's a pity that the treasure knife is dusty and has been shelved and no one uses it, which can be regarded as a waste of alternative resources.
Then Qin Heqing took the knife out of the scabbard entirely, checked the blade and edge of the knife with his hands, and felt its state.
"Be careful, don't cut your hands." Erika reminded.
"Yes."
"You like it?" After a moment of silence, Hui Lixiang, who noticed Qin Heqing's inadvertent expression, asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, Grandma. You also know, I have practiced kendo, so I have always had a good feeling for knives, but my mother has always disapproved of me buying this kind of thing, so I ......" Qin Heqing looked up at Hui Rika and explained.
Of course, this is not exactly nonsense, but the original idea that Qin Heqing really existed in his heart, but now he borrowed it.
"If that's the case, you can take this knife, anyway, it's useless for me to keep it at home, but I have to spend time and energy to maintain it, I don't have that leisure." Hearing this, Hui Rika did not hesitate, and immediately spoke.
"Is that okay?" Qin Heqing was surprised.
"Absolutely. I'm just a grandson like you, who else can I give it to if I don't give it to you? Erika Machida said as a matter of course.
It's not wrong to think about it.
There are no boys in the Machida family, one of the daughters has gone, and the other is not married, so naturally there are no descendants to consider, plus the relationship between Qin and Qing and Machida Yuanzi, even if it is passed on to Machida Yuanzi in the end, most of them will fall to Qin Heqing's side, rather than going through it twice at that time, it is better to give things directly now.
It's also a good time to find a suitable owner for these commemorative things.
Her old lady was not so confused that she could not be governor.
