Chapter 255: Seventy-two Relics

A very light sword? This description sounds very vague at first glance, because light is a concept that makes sense in contrast to heavy, so to say that an object is light, you have to give how heavy it must be to be considered heavy. The same is true of the sword, with different styles, the object that the concept of sword refers to is not to say that there are thousands of differences, there are always a hundred differences, and it is necessary to say how light it is, how vague is it? Is what Sword 7 is talking about is a sword that is lighter than a sword of the same shape and the same material? Or does it refer to a sword that uses less material but does not reduce its function, and is light because of its unique shape? No one can say well. Somehow, Cheese and Atta looked at each other, and they both read the same meaning in each other's eyes. They had the same thing in mind, the sword that had been snatched from the hyena man on the night of Alei's attack.

"Can you be more careful? What kind of light sword did you speak, and what did it look like?" Cheese also had a lot of doubts about the sword, especially since the inscription on it was written by a script unknown to the mage, which made him quite curious, for the self-proclaimed and erudite gray robe, an unseen text meant at least a civilization that had never been seen before. And he was more than happy to learn about it, because there were countless possibilities in each civilization, such as knights and herdsmen, who had very different views of the world.

Jian Qi had just asked casually, but he had never thought of the master's attitude so seriously, which made him immediately realize that the two people in front of him were likely to know something. So he immediately sat upright, his hands on his knees, and straightened up. This kind of sitting posture Cheese has never seen before, but he can also feel the meaning of the other party from it, and he can't help but follow abruptly, "Since Mr. Qi asked, I will inform Mr. 1510, I only hope that if Mr. knows the whereabouts of this sword, he must inform Yu Zaixia." The hilt of the sword is three inches long, the blade is three feet two inches, the width is less than two inches, and the weight is about four inches. The whole body is forged in bronze, the sword grid is auspicious cloud-shaped, and the handle has a delphinium pattern, which is tied with red spikes. The middle section of the sword body is also the name of the sword in the lower hometown text book Feiyan. This sword is my family heirloom, made by my ancestors, and it is very important to me. ”

The mage was stunned for a moment, not because of anything else, but because the units of measurement about length and weight that Jian Qi said were not the same as the measurement systems he knew, so he first confirmed with the other party the conversion standards between these units and the more popular systems among the countries of the continent. After doing this, Cheese was almost certain that the weapon that was now being used as the cat fairy sword was the one that Kenqi was looking for. The sword, though light and relatively normal, was not worn by Kairaz, and was now tucked away in the pack horse's backpack. This opens up the possibility of further dialogue between the two sides.

"To tell you the truth, the sword you are talking about, we have indeed heard of it during our travels. I just don't know how it ended up on the grassland since it's your family's heirloom sword?"

Speaking of this, Jian Qi's body collapsed suddenly, and he scratched his cheeks, like a child who had done something wrong and was ashamed to speak to outsiders, but soon, he still made up his mind, the whereabouts of the Feiyan Sword were too important to him, and he didn't want to miss the news because of concealment, "That's a long way to talk." To talk about this, we have to go back to one of the things you said earlier, which is your race and mine. Judging by the tone of your voice, you must not have a clear idea of where our appearance comes from. This is not surprising, many people of the same clan live in different places, and it is normal to forget their homeland after a long time. ”

"My hometown, far away. Most of the people there look like you and me, and the races here are quite different, but they are all the same on the inside. Come to think of it, sir, your ancestors should have moved here from there, and after a few generations, they had you. This is not unusual, although the faces of the same clan I have seen along the way have gradually decreased, but I can still meet you here, which shows that my people are quite resilient. Far from it, in my homeland, my family has been forging swords for a living for generations, a craft that has been passed down from ancient times. ”

"The sword has been used as a weapon since ancient times, and then became a ritual weapon to show martial power, and it can be regarded as a commonly used thing. Therefore, although the status of my family has also risen and fallen, I can finally get by with this craft. In my generation, it was a prosperous time and a prosperous family, and there were dozens of people of my generation. Around the sword-forging and sword-casting related industries, it can barely be regarded as a prestigious force. Those who have seen it have called us the Sword Gate. If you have a reputation, you will naturally be remembered. Thirty years ago, thieves broke into the ancestral hall of my sword gate, plundered 72 world-famous swords in the clan, and scattered them in all directions. ”

"The people in my sword sect take the sword as their profession and are born with the sword, and the seventy-two famous swords are extremely important to us, and the theft of the sword shrine is tantamount to the theft of the ancestral tomb. Therefore, since then, those who are not swordsmiths, those who do not take care of the industry, and those who do not care for the home in the Sword Gate have all gone out to search for famous swords, and the young people have gone out and returned in their twilight years. As for my generation, the sword seekers are in the third generation, and 7 out of 72 of the 72 swords have been recovered, and the remaining 45 have either been hidden or sold several times, and their whereabouts are unknown. I am the elder of my generation, and I am not good at forging, so I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and as the first generation of travelers in the clan, I went out of my homeland to the distance to find the trace of the sword. ”

After listening to Jian Qi's words, the two of them were silent for a while, which is not to say that they don't believe it. On the contrary, Jian Qi's words were conclusive, and the expressions on his face and words were all sincere, but the information he said was too big and needed time to digest. In the midst of these messages, Cheese noticed that Kenqi said that he was the eldest of his generation, but he looked about the same age as himself, so he asked, "As you said, your dedication to finding a sword all the way from your homeland is worthy of admiration." But I think you're the same age as me, and I wonder how long you've been out of the house?"

"It's not a secret, I went out of my house at the age of fifteen, and I have been out looking for swords for eleven years this year. Originally, I was planning to return home, but I happened to hear the news of Feiyan Sword on the way, so I asked questions along the way and chased it to this neighborhood. Therefore, if the gentleman knows the whereabouts of this sword, he hopes to inform him. This is not what I want alone, but what everyone in my sword gate wants. ”

"Boy, how can you be sure that light sword is the Feiyan Sword in your mouth? If it is really your famous sword, then it must have been famous for a long time, and it has been lost for a long time, and it may not be impossible for someone else to imitate it. "The person who speaks, not Cheese, will be called by the name of the Kid, and certainly not Atta. The cat fairy, who had been lying in the shade of the tree, got up lazily and said to the sword seeker.

Jian Qi was obviously startled, he stared at Kailath for a few seconds before slowly coming back to his senses, "It turns out to be a cat demon uncle, I didn't know you before I went down, how offended!

Kailas stood up on his two hind legs and walked slowly, "Don't say such polite words, you haven't answered my question yet." If that sword is in front of you, are you sure it's not what you're looking for?"

"This..."Jian Qi hesitated slightly, he could see that he was very afraid of the cat goblin, but it was about the dignity of the Sword Gate, he still took a deep breath and said, "The people in the Sword Gate have been familiar with the various swords forged in the history of the family since they were children, although I have never seen the Feiyan Sword with my own eyes, but I will not look at the techniques used by the family, if the Feiyan Sword is displayed in front of me, I will definitely be able to identify it!"

"Okay, then come and see!"
