Chapter 619: Sword Queen
No matter how wide and heavy the canopy arranged by the strong man is, it can't cover everyone's sight.
Some people saw monsters, some people saw giant immortals, and some people saw the sword tower fly into the sky and turn into ten thousand swords and fall.
The mouth of the Royal Praetorian Guard may not be much stricter than that of the security forces, especially after indulging in drunkenness, they will always tell some secrets in exchange for an exclamation from the singers.
The smart and boring people of Dongdu spliced together the fragmentary information they collected one by one, and unexpectedly restored the scenes that happened in the square.
It wasn't until the city was boiling that the imperial court realized that something was wrong, and specially entrusted the Confucian disciples of the Glory Academy to bring a wave of rhythm and confuse the truth again.
It was in the hustle and bustle of rumors and truth that Ye Changsheng's Wenjian Pavilion began to be known and ushered in waves of guests.
The shopkeeper and the guys were ecstatic, but they were soon dumbfounded, and more than three hundred long swords were all sold out in a day's work!
These swords were made by Elder Lu and the others, and Elder Lu and the others had already left a few days ago.
As for the batch of swords transferred from Yunlong City, it would take seven or eight days to arrive at the earliest.
What do they sell during this gap period?
The helpless shopkeeper quickly got instructions to move the three swords on the second floor to the first floor, and announced to the public that after auctioning the three swords, the Sword Pavilion would be open for business.
There was no way out, so the shopkeeper had to do so, and removed the three sword stands and placed them in the empty hall on the first floor.
In order not to look monotonous, the shopkeeper had a whimsical idea and deliberately arranged some sets and lights to create a mysterious atmosphere.
Not to mention, after the strange news of the square spread, the people of Dongdu ate this set.
Therefore, although there are no swords to sell in the Sword Pavilion, the number of people who go to patronize them has not decreased but increased!
"The white-haired immortal is born in this sword, and the mechanism is designed!"
"The white-haired immortal is born in this sword, and he hides the secret book of martial arts!"
"The white-haired immortal hid a treasure map inside the sword!"
......
In front of the gate of the Sword Pavilion, the crowd lined up in a long line, like a big snake winding, and its thick body spanned several blocks.
At this time, many powerful people also became curious, and they sent people to line up, wanting to see what mysteries were hidden in the three swords.
It's a pity that a group of people went, and a group of people returned disappointed, among which there were some disguised cultivators and sword-forging masters, but no one saw the clues.
"Girl, what are the mysteries hidden in those three swords?" In a certain garden in the west of the city, Su Shentong, the old lady of the Su family, who was drinking tea and appreciating flowers, finally couldn't help but ask.
Su Tianmu and Su Yuanfang, as well as the members of the Su family's royal family who accompanied them, pricked up their ears and looked at Su Yun intently.
Su Yun smiled bitterly: "Uncle, I didn't ask, and he didn't tell me." ”
Su Shentong was unwilling: "When he left the Eastern Capital, he didn't mention half a word?"
Su Yun thought for a moment and said uncertainly: "It seems to have been mentioned, but Yun'er is not sure either." ”
"Tell me about it, we'll help with the analysis. Su Yuanfang couldn't help but say.
Su Shentong glared at Su Yuanfang, but for the sake of the duel in the square, Su Yuanfang did it properly, so he didn't curse.
Su Yun had no choice but to say: "Yun'er heard him say, it seems to be a sword girl or something." ”
Kenhime?!
Kenhime?!
The children of the Su family looked dazed, but Su Shentong and Su Tianmu's eyes lit up.
Su Shentong preemptively said: "Tianmu, do you understand the old man, don't rob the old man!"
Su Tianmu was dumbfounded, he knew that this old guy was shameless, but he didn't expect it to be so shameless.
If you can't afford to provoke it, you can only admit it, Su Tianmu said stupidly: "That's okay, after taking pictures, let me go for a few days." ”
Su Shentong smiled, and immediately high-fived Su Tianmu.
The children of the Su family have long been accustomed to the indecency of the idle prince and the old lady, and they don't feel anything, but they are still puzzled in their hearts.
Su Yun asked for everyone: "Second uncle, what is Jian Ji?"
Su Tianmu smiled deeply: "Although it is not a treasure, it is an extremely rare thing, even if the book casting sword master is very troublesome to cast, I didn't expect Ye Changsheng to have such idleness." ”
Su Shentong nodded: "It's probably what he's studying, let's do it, if it is deliberately cast, it can be cast better, and it will definitely not be this reserve price." ”
Su Tianmu thought about it, agreed, and asked the three swords in the Sword Pavilion, and the auction reserve price of one sword was only 500,000 taels of silver.
With Ye Changsheng's current popularity, a Lingwu-level mid-grade long sword was sold for 500,000 taels of silver, although it was a little higher, but it was not outrageous.
But if it's a sword girl, 500,000 taels can be said to be quite cheap.
The difficulty of forging a sword is no less than forging a legendary-level sword.
Because of this, most swordsmiths will not try to do this, one is that they do not want to waste this time and energy, and the other is that the sword girl always gives people a sense of disillusionment as a plaything, so they will be somewhat taboo.
Just when everyone in the garden was talking, Peng Wei of the Sword Pavilion ushered in a big man like Mu Qingke, and he was accompanied by solemnity.
With the status of the two of them, they naturally didn't have to queue up, so they went straight to the three sword racks and squinted to taste.
The people who tasted it were mainly Mu Qingke, who solemnly saw Ye Changsheng casting these three swords, so he knew their mysteries.
Mu Qingke picked up one of the swords, looked at it for a long time, sighed, and put down the long sword.
The shape of the three swords is peculiar, and the internal structure is also very strange, basically the practical significance is not much, with the background of Mu Qingke, I can guess it.
There was a hint of a smile on his solemn and old-fashioned face: "Teacher, in fact, several sword-casting masters have come over before, and they have all seen the mystery, but they, like you, know very well that these three swords are actually not prepared for us." ”
Mu Qingke smiled bitterly: "Actually, what the old man really can't figure out is where he got so much time and time to ponder these strange things?"
solemn and unreasonable, the more he thinks about it, the more unbalanced his psychology becomes, so he doesn't want to at all.
Three days later, at an auction, Su Shentong indisputably auctioned the three swords at a sky-high price of five million taels of silver.
Even though some powerful people can afford this price, they don't have the courage to talk to Su Shentong for a long time.
That night, Su Shentong held a banquet in the palace, and most of the top magnates in the eastern capital gathered together, called Pinjian.
Of course, Mu Qingke would not miss such a high-end opportunity to show his face, and specially brought a few sword-casting masters to come together.
In the huge hall, everyone sat separately, and saw that the hour had passed, but the old lady of the Su family on the main seat did not show up for a long time.
Just as everyone was whispering, suddenly, three soft pillars of light were projected down and shone on the square table in front of the main seat.
There was nothing on the table except for three swords.
Ding, knock, ding, knock,
The long sword trembled at the same time, making a melodious and pleasant sound, and the sounds were intertwined, as if they were playing a musical instrument.
In the shocked eyes of everyone, the three swords bloomed brilliantly, and they stood up, the sword body twisted into the shape of a woman, and the tip of the sword pointed downward, dancing!
