A few days later, in a palatial compound in Lianghe County, twenty mahogany chairs were neatly placed in the courtyard, ten on the left and ten on the right. Twenty local tycoons were invited to sit on chairs. Because these people are pampered, there are basically six or seven big fat people among ten people.

In addition to the invitees, there were also some people who came to join in the fun, and they had no seats to sit on, so they could only stand next to them. For these people, the owner of the courtyard did not exclude them, but there was a requirement for admission, only well-dressed people could enter, and the poor were not allowed to enter.

The reason why the owner of the yard did this was not because he was snobbish, but because the yard area was limited, it could not accommodate so many people, and the price of the things to be sold today was too high for ordinary people to afford.

Fortunately, Zhao Zheng has a few sets of expensive clothes, so he will not be stumped by this request. He stood in the corner of the courtyard, avoiding the crowd and landing quietly. He came here today, just like everyone present, for the same purpose, to get something auctioned by the owner of the yard.

The owner of this courtyard is Lu Gong, a local master woodcarver, who is extremely skilled in his craft, but the carving speed is very slow, and only three to five pieces can be carved in a year. Due to the low production, the price of his works is very high, and each time it is sold in the form of auctions, and the highest price wins.

"I don't know what kind of work Master Lu will carve this time, it's really exciting."

"Yes, Master Lu's wood carving creativity is excellent, the carving is exquisite, and every piece of work can make people shine."

"Last time, the 'Jinpeng Spreading Wings' was carved with extraordinary momentum, and it looked like it was thriving, after Boss Xu bought it back. The silk business has improved a lot. Master Mofilu's wood carving works still have the effect of transfer? ”

"Haha. No one knows. ”

A few rich men sitting on wooden chairs not far away talked happily with each other, not complaining about waiting, let alone complaining about the cold in the open air.

The reason why Zhao Zheng wants to buy this wood carving work today is just to give it away, and he doesn't have much research on carving.

Lu Gong strives for perfection in wood carving works. There are also a lot of doorways when selling, and every time they sell, they will choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, and before they reach the most auspicious time, they will not take out the work, and the buyer can only wait obediently.

With the sound of footsteps, another buyer stepped into the courtyard. There were a lot of people gathered here, everyone was chatting, and his arrival did not attract much attention.

Only a few people looked at this person, including Zhao Zheng.

This person is wearing a blue gown. The look is arrogant and cold, giving people the illusion of rejecting people thousands of miles away. His under-eyes were heavily covered and darkened, as if he hadn't had a good rest for many days, and on his back, he carried an unpretentious long sword, with no sword spikes left on the hilt, clean and neat.

Such a person will inevitably make people stay away and not have any good feelings.

When Zhao Zheng saw this person, his pupils shrank slightly, he sighed lightly, and said secretly in his heart: "Strange, how could the little sword demon come here?" ”

The little sword demon is a well-known NPC character in "Horse Riding Rivers and Lakes", and Zhao Zheng has crossed paths with him several times, so he is deeply impressed.

As can be seen from the nickname, the little sword demon is a martial artist who is good at using swords, and he has a bit of evil spirit.

His real name is Mo Yunzi, he is withdrawn by nature, his martial arts are all self-taught, he has never worshiped his master, and he is not attached to any martial arts forces. He sometimes kills people indiscriminately, but not intentionally, but unintentionally.

The swordsmanship practiced by Mo Yunzi is called "Zu Xuan Swordsmanship", which was created by an ancestor who was good at arithmetic, and the purpose is to quickly calculate the best attack method according to factors such as wind direction, temperature, enemy height, enemy moves, etc., and then give the enemy a fatal blow, which is a set of swordsmanship with high lethality.

Zu Xuan is the name of the founder of this set of swordsmanship, he is not a martial artist himself, but a mathematician, because he created this set of swordsmanship on a whim. This set of swordsmanship is completely based on martial arts theory, and it has many deficiencies in actual combat.

In addition, this set of swordsmanship has another disadvantage, that is, it is too complicated, and if you want to learn this swordsmanship well, you must first learn many complex calculation formulas.

Mo Yunzi obtained the ancestral swordsmanship by chance, and after years of painstaking study, he obtained a small success. However, problems also followed, because this set of swordsmanship was very flawed and too complicated, and Mo Yunzi had gone mad many times in the process of learning, and his mind was greatly damaged, leaving a serious root of illness.

Every once in a while, Mo Yunzi would intermittently get sick, become insane, lose his mind, and kill the people around him. He is completely uncontrollable when he goes crazy, and he will not return to normal until he has vented. Although he is usually cold, he does not kill innocents indiscriminately, but when he goes crazy, he will become denied by his relatives and cruel and murderous, and many people have died at his hands because of this.

Because of this problem of indiscriminate killing, it caused a lot of infamy in the rivers and lakes, so it got the nickname of Little Sword Demon.

In the game, Zhao Zheng once completed several tasks with the little sword demon, and also fought a few times. In the process of completing the task, the little sword demon is like a time bomb, it may go crazy at any time, and once it goes crazy, it will kill people indiscriminately, which makes Zhao Zheng suffer a lot.

The little sword demon's usual martial arts are quite high, and if he starts to go crazy, his strength will increase a lot, and it will be very difficult to parry.

With the different progress of the game, the specific cultivation of the little sword demon is also different, and Zhao Zheng roughly speculated that the strength of the little sword demon should be between the fourth and fifth heavens.

In the "Battle for the Primal Sword", in addition to the player's participation, many NPCs will also participate, and the player can only get the Primal Sword if they defeat these NPCs. Because the little sword demon is a good hand at using swords, and his age is eligible, he will also participate when the time comes, and he can be regarded as a potential strong enemy of Zhao Zheng.

Lu Gong's home is a place to sell wood carvings, not a mission location, and Zhao Zheng can't guess the purpose of Mo Yunzi's visit. In his mind. The little sword demon is the equivalent of a dangerous psychopath. I really can't feel good. Secretly decided to ignore it.

Mo Yunzi looked around, looked at the people around him, and inadvertently met Zhao Zheng's gaze, and looked at each other for a few seconds.

Zhao Zheng couldn't help but think of the scene when he used to play games, and all kinds of memories came to his mind, and his eyes shook slightly.

Mo Yunzi stared at Zhao for a while before he stopped, turned his head, and asked in a cold voice at the people in the courtyard, "Is there a good wood carving to sell here?" ”

The conversation was interrupted. They all turned their eyes to Mo Yunzi, and when they saw him carrying a sword on his back, they all cheered up. One of the more talkative replied, "That's right, the owner of this house is called Lu Gong, he is the best woodcarver in the area, and a new piece will be released today, whichever comes at the highest price." ”

"Very good, I was about to buy a wood carving, and today I will order this wood carving." Mo Yunzi said it lightly, as if the wood carving had become a bag.

The crowd heard this kind of wild talk. I was a little unconvinced, but no one dared to say it. At most, laugh twice, intentionally or unintentionally.

Mo Yunzi stood in place for a while, then suddenly frowned, and said unhappily: "Aren't there any other chairs here?" ”

"This son, we only have twenty chairs, and there are no more chairs for you to sit on. The hospitality is not good, and I hope to be inclusive. The man who was in charge of taking care of the yard next to him came over and said with a smile.

"There are only twenty chairs, which means that only distinguished guests are qualified to sit on them, right?" Mo Yunzi snorted.

"No, no, no, it doesn't mean that, it's just that the place is too small, and there are too many guests, it's just that you can't put it on it, don't think about it."

"It doesn't matter what I think, but with my status, I must have a seat."

"But...... It's full of people, so bear with me. The head of the house will be coming out soon, and you won't have to wait long. ”

"I won't embarrass you, embarrass a family member, it's really a loss of my identity." Mo Yunzi glanced around twice, and his gaze fell on the first chair on the left. He walked over proudly and stood in front of the man sitting in the chair, "Give me your chair." ”

"It's a joke, I was invited, why should I give you a seat?" The fat rich businessman who was sitting snorted, he was also a figure with a head and a face in Lianghe County.

"It's simple, with my sword!" Mo Yunzi drew his sword out of the sheath, and in an instant, he stabbed seventy-seven forty-nine swords in a row on the fat rich businessman Zhou. Because he took out the sword too quickly, the sword light almost condensed into one, and it was white, swallowing the fat rich man whole.

Mo Yunzi withdrew his sword, and there was no stain on the sword, because the sword did not hurt the fat rich merchant.

The fat rich merchant was completely frightened, and at that moment, he was completely wrapped in death, and the chill from the friction of the blade of the sword clung to his skin, and it would have broken his skin even a little further.

"Get out of the way, or the next time you play your sword, you'll have to have something less on you." Mo Yunzi said coldly.

"Yes, yes......" The fat rich businessman saw that Mo Yunzi was a martial artist with good martial arts, and he didn't dare to be bored, so he gave up his seat in a gloomy way. Because he felt embarrassed, he simply didn't even buy the wood carving and left here directly.

All the people around him who had a little vision could see Mo Yunzi's strength, even if they didn't have vision, they could feel how fast the sword was just now. Everyone was so frightened that they took a few steps back, treating Mo Yunzi as a plague god, lest they avoid it.

Mo Yunzi snorted, sat down on the first chair, and stared coldly at the house in front of him, waiting for the wood carving to be presented.

Zhao Zheng saw everything in his eyes, and he didn't like Mo Yunzi's approach, but he didn't want to make trouble for this little thing.

Today, there is only one woodcarving handicraft, and with the addition of Mo Yunzi as a bidder, things have become much more difficult.

"Haha, I've kept you waiting."

There was a hearty laugh from inside the room, the door was pushed open, and a sturdy man with rough hands and calluses stepped out. Many people recognized this person as Lu Gong at a glance and greeted him one after another.

Behind Lu Gong followed two family members, and the two of them were holding a thing covered with red cloth, which was three feet high, presumably the wood carving handicraft. (To be continued.) )
