Chapter 21: When the Knife

Returning to Wuxi City, Liu Hong went directly to the inn where he stayed and took out his mountaineering bag sword box for temporary storage, and walked towards the direction of Drum Mountain.

To be honest, Liu Hong actually didn't really want to go to Drum Mountain, because although there were no cliffs there, he could systematically learn the application of "Northern Shengong" and various external skills such as boxing and swordsmanship.

But I don't know if Wuyazi will teach him, because Liu Hong's method of obtaining "Northern Spiritual Skill" is really a bit unspeakable!

Besides, if he is unwilling to teach him, Liu Hong doesn't care, the existence of "Northern Spiritual Skill" alone has already made him inexhaustible! But what if Wu Yazi wants to clean up the portal and take back the "Northern Pluto Divine Skill"? You must know that although Wu Yazi in the original book can't move his hands and feet, he also has a disciple named Su Xinghe!

However, after careful calculation, Liu Hong found that he had nowhere to go now! Although the protagonists of "Dragon Babu" are living a wonderful life now, what does it have to do with Liu Hong? He didn't have to follow them and watch carefully!

Drum Mountain is in Xinyang City, Henan Province, a little far away from Wuxi, Liu Hong has no idea of running with his legs at all, although it will not be too slow to rush over with "Lingbo Weibu", but it can't be compared with horses at all!

Although Liu Hong can't ride a horse, this thing is still very easy to learn, especially after knowing the internal force, he is not afraid of falling! The hands and feet are also neat and agile.

So in Wuxi City, Liu Hong looked left and right, and after asking a few passers-by at the same time, he found a pawnshop that they said was the largest, "Xu Ji Pawnshop".

What can Liu Hong do in a pawnshop? What can he do?

Sword!

When Liu Hong came to this world, he brought three swords, no, two swords and a knife.

Two Han swords, one long and one short, are the same Japanese sword!

"Hello officer! What are you here for? Before entering the pawnshop, Liu Hong heard a Qingyue voice, and the voice was about thirty or forty years old.

"This way! This way! ”

Following the sound, Liu Hong found the person who made the sound, as expected, he looked almost in his early thirties, but he was dressed in a green robe, with glasses on his face, and he looked at Si Swenwen, not at all like a pawnshop owner.

The glasses had no feet, so they were not on the bridge of his nose, but tied with strips of cloth on both sides and tied to the back of his head, so that he could not easily fall off even when he was exercising.

"Hello shopkeeper." Liu Hong stepped forward, then put down the sword box on his back, walked to the counter and said, "I'm a little tight now, so I'm here to do something!" ”

"Oh! What is the little brother here for? At the counter, the man gently closed the book in his hand, put it aside, got up and bowed back, and looked at Liu Hong's sword box with interest.

To be honest, Liu Hong's sword box is still quite ostentatious, and the carving is very exquisite, so that after people look at it, they can't help but look forward to what is hidden inside.

"Knives!" Liu Hong did not shy away from it, directly opened the sword box, took out the Japanese sword inside, and at the same time pulled it open so that the man could take a look.

"Huh!" The man was taken aback by Liu Hong's move, and tilted his head back! Anyone who suddenly sees someone draw a knife will be shocked! What's more, the pawnshop owner doesn't look like a person in the rivers and lakes, but he was frightened, and he didn't lose his voice and shouted out, which is already quite bold!

"Sorry! I'm sorry! Seeing the actions of the pawnshop owner, Liu Hong also knew that he was Meng Lang, so he quickly put the Japanese knife in its sheath and put it on the counter to apologize.

"It doesn't matter! It's a gaffe to be too bold! The man saw Liu Hong's move, and also understood that he had not encountered a robber or something, so he waved his hand again and again and said with a wry smile.

Picking up the knife on the counter, the man took it out and examined it carefully, then wrapped his hand in a strip of cloth and broke it and knocked it, and finally took a strip of cloth and put it on and tried it.

"Whew!" With a bang, I saw that the Japanese sword cut the strip of cloth apart without much effort.

"Shhh The man took a breath of cold air, then looked at Liu Hong with a frightened look, and looked at Liu Hong with a trembling voice and said, "Can I find something to try the knife?" ”

"No problem!" Liu Hong doesn't care, although this Japanese knife is good, it is not of much use to Liu Hong! He took it only for decoration, and if he used it to cut people, it was useful to farmers and civilians, and if there were a few people who knew how to use weapons, I was afraid that they would be taken away in a few clicks! Because now Liu Hong doesn't dare to bless much internal force in his hands!

"Little brother, wait a minute!" After speaking, the man put the knife back into its sheath, placed it in front of Liu Hong, and then went to the back of the house.

After a while, the man returned, and brought with him a piece of bamboo, which he had just cut down, and thought it was something he was going to try.

"I'll be fine with this bamboo, right?" The man put the bamboo on the counter, and then looked at Liu Hongdao with a little shame.

In his mind, this bamboo may be a little harder, because his axe is a bit laborious to chop!

"It doesn't matter." Liu Hong smiled slightly, then stretched out his right hand and flattened it, signaling the man to be casual.

Seeing that Liu Hong had agreed, the man pulled out the Japanese sword again, then held it with both hands and slashed at the bamboo on the counter.

"Click!" The Japanese knife cut the bamboo neatly. With a little bit, I also cut the counter in!

After a few breaths, Liu Hong still didn't see any movement from the man, so he tentatively called out, "Sir?" ”

"Huh?" The man was startled and looked at Liu Hong.

"What do you think of this knife?" Liu Hong asked with a smile, his tone was very confident! Seeing that man's performance, can you not be confident?

"Good knives! What a knife! The man took out the knife stuck on the counter, and after looking at it carefully, he found that there was no big gap, just a little curled blade, and he immediately sighed! It is worthy of the treasure knife of overseas Yingzhou! ”

"Huh?" This time it was Liu Hong's turn to be stunned! The name of the Japanese sword was still quite famous in the Song Dynasty!

"Little brother, is this going to live or die!" The man didn't see Liu Hong's astonishment, his eyes were already deeply attracted by the Japanese sword!

"How's it going? What about death? Liu Hong had no concept of whether to live or die, but seeing that this person was so obsessed with Japanese swords, he asked.

Hearing Liu Hong's inquiry, the man finally changed his gaze from the Japanese sword to Liu Hong.

After carefully looking at Liu Hong for a while, he said: "If you live it, I can give you thirty gold!" ”

Thirty gold! What a concept! During the Song Dynasty, that was thirty taels of silver!

That's it! What about death? So Liu Hong looked at the man with an expectant look.

Living up to Liu Hong's expectations, the man spoke again: "If you die, you should ......" but he was slightly stuck in the price.

"What about death?" Liu Hong, who couldn't wait, directly opened his mouth and urged.

Gritting his teeth, the man spoke, "If it's death!" I...... I...... I'll be with you for 100 gold! ”

100 gold! One hundred taels!

"What does it cost 100 gold!" There was a swaying sound at the door!

"It's you! What do you come to do! When the man in the pawnshop saw the man at the door, his whole face darkened! said in a stiff tone, which was very inconsistent with his elegant appearance.

"Ouch! Don't do that! Xinghong! You know, you and I are," the man replied in a coarse tone after seeing the pawnshop man's expression and attitude.

"Nothing! What do I have to do with you! Not wanting to listen to what the swinger had to say, the pawnshop man stiffly interrupted the swinger.

Squirming his lips, the swinger didn't say anything after all, just took a deep look at the man in the pawnshop, and then brushed his sleeves away.

"Make you laugh! So will you die or live? Seeing the swinger man leaving, the man in the pawnshop first sighed, and then asked Liu Hong in a somewhat cold tone.

"Die!" Regarding the affairs of the two of them, Liu Hong completely cared.

"Yes! So do you want to hand over the child or the cash? The man saw Liu Hong's decision and asked Liu Hong directly how he wanted to receive the money.

Jiaozi is a currency issued in the first year of the Tiansheng of Yurenzong in the Northern Song Dynasty (1023), and was once circulated as official legal tender, called "Guanjiaozi".

"Just give me the money." Liu Hong doesn't trust Jiaozi, because although the current Jiaozi is in charge of the Jiaozi affairs of the Song Dynasty, from Song Renzong to the present, the Jiaozi affairs are almost decayed!

"This! The shop can't afford to spare so much money right now! With a bitter face, the man said with a wry smile.

"Then let's do it!" Without hesitation, Liu Hong changed his death to life, because he reacted that what he needed was not a lot of silver, thirty taels was enough, and one hundred taels of silver was really not easy to guess.

After looking at Liu Hong again, the man turned around and went into the back room, took out thirty taels of silver, and after making a contract with Liu Hong, he handed over the silver to Liu Hong, and at the same time put away the Japanese sword.

"If Your Excellency comes to solve the problem in the future, remember to bring this contract!" Seeing that Liu Hong put away the silver and the contract and was about to leave, the man reminded him, and finally pulled his mouth, which was regarded as seeing off Liu Hong with a smile.

"Got it!" Liu Hong looked back and smiled.

Out of Xu Ji pawnshop, Liu Hong went to the market and wanted to find a horse to buy, but he didn't find it until noon!

Helpless, Liu Hong had no choice but to go to an inn and ask for some food, ready to eat first, and then ask Xiao Er.

Before he sat down, Liu Hong saw the swinger man he had encountered in the pawnshop before.

The man was eating wine now, but he also saw Liu Hong!

"It's you!" Raising his glass, the man smiled at Liu Hong.
