Chapter 386: Return to Dust
"Ordinary women don't carry a dagger with them"
As soon as Jia Lao's words came out, he saw Hua Mian's back tremble, and he didn't look back and floated a sentence: "You read it wrong, how could it be a dagger?"
"You can't hide your actions from me, don't hide it here, just the two of us, this is what Sikong Xiao's kid gave you."
Hua Mian was shocked when he heard Jia Lao mention Sikong Xiao, there was no one else in the house when he received this knife, how did he know? It can't be someone who has secretly installed the camera, right?!
Seeing that Hua Mian no longer denied it, Jia Lao added: "If you don't speak, I'll just treat you as a default."
At this time, Hua Mian turned around, holding the dagger with one hand still in his arms, and asked, "How did Jia Lao tell that this was a knife?" ”
"Very well, you asked me how I saw it was a knife first, which means you didn't see what it was when you first received it"
Anyway, Jia Lao already knew that there was no need to hide it, Hua Mian took out the dagger again, "The Ninth Young Master gave me this knife just for self-defense, don't think about it"
"I know that you don't have the courage to use it to assassinate anyone, and no one in this world will casually take Guichen to assassinate you", Jia Lao said in a relaxed tone, which sounded very terrible to Huamian.
"Dust? Do you mean this knife? It turns out that it still has a name, which sounds good", I didn't expect such a rolling pin-like knife to have a name.
Hearing Hua Mian say this, Jia Lao's reaction was even greater than when he saw this knife, "You shouldn't have heard of the name of Guichen, right?" ”
"I've never heard of it...", it's just a knife, is it necessary to have heard of it?
"This is one of the top ten famous weapons today, can you remember why Commander Su, who guarded the door when you entered the palace, took a fancy to the kitchen knife you carried? The commander of the Imperial Guards took a fancy to a kitchen knife in charge of the kitchen, and no one would believe it."
"Didn't he say he liked the material of my kitchen knife?" , After Jia Lao's reminder, Hua Mian remembered what happened when he first entered the palace.
Jia Lao found a stone platform and sat down, motioned for Hua Mian to put away the dagger, and said, "This dagger and your kitchen knife are both forged from stainless steel, and this knife will only be better than your kitchen knife."
"It is rumored that a knife casting master in the previous dynasty cast countless famous knives when he was young, how many dignitaries and nobles came to the door to beg him to cast a knife, and one day this master accidentally bought an inconspicuous stone, and the stone is not big, it is estimated that it is similar to the one in your yard that presses the pickle jar, and the relatives and friends around him say that he is crazy and spends so much savings just to buy a stone that I don't know if it really contains ore, even if it is really ore, this size is not enough to forge a sword"
Hua Mian likes to listen to stories, and after listening to Jia Lao's speech, she put down her work and sat down to listen.
"When the outer skin of the stone is peeled off, the ore light revealed is unseen by anyone, and according to legend, the white light has been rushing into the sky."
Hearing this, Hua Mian couldn't help but complain in her heart, if she didn't turn on a flashlight, how could it still glow.
"It's a pity that there are too few materials, such a precious ore casting sword master is naturally unwilling to do it easily, and it took most of his life intermittently to make this dagger, when the dagger was cast on the day countless people gathered outside the master's house, just to take a look, but the master and the dagger completely disappeared from the workshop, and no one has seen it since."
