Chapter 14: Heirloom Knife

Early the next morning, Sun Chenghuan got up very early. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

That "bed" should be the same as that cave, someone has been applied something like a dark curtain and other magic that Sun Chenghuan doesn't understand, anyway, it's pitch black, he can't see what's inside outside, let alone what Erin is doing inside.

Actually, he wasn't much interested.

It's just a little girl......

Even if it's cute, it's just a child.

Sun Chenghuan, who got up in the morning, had something to do.

It's been two days without much exercise, and today he's trying to get his routine back to normal.

For Sun Chenghuan, normal work and rest refers to the practice of knife skills after getting up every morning.

He is a warrior.

Naturally, it is necessary to practice martial arts.

What he practiced was knife art.

In Merth, like Astrana in the south, the main weapon is not a sword, but a sword.

This may be due to the fact that the Duchy of Merth and the Kingdom of Astrana had some relationship as early as 2,000 years ago.

Another reason, of course, is that swords look better than swords.

None of that matters, though.

The most important thing is that the weapon "knife" was originally not owned by the Ace Continent.

It's not that there were no knives in the Ace Continent, there were, but no one ever used them as a weapon to fight against people.

The first time a sword was seen in a battle between people was in the first year of the Mandate of Heaven......

The soldiers of Penglai Country use knives.

Thick back, thin blade, good for chopping.

Because on the battlefield, you basically don't have any room to stab, so the tip of the sword is basically useless. Compared to the knife, the sword is too thin, and if a knife and a sword are cut together, the sword must be broken......

Therefore, in the era of Penglai Kingdom, there were basically no people who practiced martial arts who could practice swords.

It wasn't until after the disappearance of the Penglai Kingdom that the sword slowly began to become popular again.

After all, the sword still looks a lot better than the sword.

As for why Sun Chenghuan practiced knives?

That's because he didn't have a sword......

This knife, which was previously called a "broken knife" by blacksmith Uncle Terry, has a special meaning for Sun Chenghuan.

It was the only relic his father had left him.

It was his grandfather...... Well, it can definitely go up, maybe it may be passed down from the ancestors of the Sun family, but all Sun Chenghuan can know is that this is something left by his father.

Therefore, he chose to learn swordsmanship in the academy again.

Of course, there are more realistic reasons, as a young man with a small family, he feels that he may have to go to the army in the future to see if he has a bright future.

If you have a good sword technique, maybe you will be appreciated in the army in the future?

After all, the sword is still the main combat weapon in close combat in the army.

And the knife, although it made his whole person look a lot more reckless, did bring him a lot of benefits.

For example, in the competition of the same grade in Yingao Academy, he basically never lost, because those of the same level who practiced swords, basically no one dared to take their own expensive or cheap sword to face Sun Chenghuan's sword.

A good sword costs dozens of gold coins, and a sword of the same level can be topped with one gold coin......

In his own yard, the set of knife techniques that Sun Chenghuan is practicing also has a background.

It's not taught by Yingao College, it's handed down from the Sun family.

It is an integral part of the "Sun Ancestral Teachings" that every child of the Sun family will have.

It is part of the initial education that every child begins to receive when they reach the age of six.

Some clan rules, plus some basic literacy, arithmetic stuff.

Although these things must still be learned in those academies of Merce, there is a sentence in the ancestral training of the Sun family, although Sun Chenghuan still doesn't understand why he said that, he remembers it very deeply.

Don't let your child lose at the starting line.

As for what is called the starting line, Sun Chenghuan doesn't understand, maybe it's the line where everyone races together and starts? But he doesn't understand it even more, is there any point in a life that can't talk about the end at all, and a place to start together?

Just because he doesn't understand or disagree doesn't mean he doesn't do it.

In particular, there are many useful things in "Sun's Ancestral Training", and this set of Sun family's knife techniques is the thing that Sun Chenghuan has benefited the most so far.

It took Sun Chenghuan more than half an hour to practice all the knife techniques.

He was also sweating.

His "broken knife" has a very special place: it is particularly heavy.

So, it's normal to sweat all over.

If you are sweating, you must wash it off, and next to the water tank in the yard, Sun Chenghuan took out a bucket of water from it, and then took a towel and wiped it on his body again.

“...... Elder brother...... What are you going to do......

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Oh...... Erin...... "Sun Chenghuan was also embarrassed all of a sudden.

He's naked......

"That...... Come in and let me know when you're done. ”

Erin ran back into her room.

After a while.

"Where's your bed?"

"Put it away!" said Erin, as she wished.

“...... What are you doing with it?"

“...... Oh, by the way, I'm going to be staying here for a long time...... I've forgotten it, I'm used to it......" Erin laughed and stuck out her tongue, then took the huge bed out of the ring again, "I knew I wouldn't have to clean it up in the morning......

“...... Do you do this basically every day?"

"yes! Erin nodded, "That's been it since I was able to walk on my own." ”

“...... It's okay, it's a while later...... Well, it won't be long, but you'll be here for the next while. ”

"Oh, by the way, speaking of which, what school I heard you talk to last night when you were talking to that guy named Enrique...... Is it the place you're going?"

"Hmm......" Sun Chenghuan also remembered.

If you want to go to the Seventh Academy......

Does she have to follow her, too?

Nazaire is not the same as Yingao City, where he needs to buy a house......

It's not dark yet, don't dream.

Even if I sell this house, I guess I can't even afford a bathroom on that side.

"You're leaving...... Still is...... Will you take me with you?" Erin asked a little cautiously when she saw Sun Chenghuan's gloomy expression.

"This ......" Sun Chenghuan didn't know how to answer.

“...... If you think I'm troublesome...... That...... I'll go back tomorrow and continue with Uncle Reese......" Erin's expression suddenly became ......

"It's okay, I want to find a way......" Sun Chenghuan could only say so.

"Why, will it be difficult to take me with you?"

"Hmm...... The city of Nazaire is there...... There are a lot of people, so it's hard to ......buy a home of your own there."

"Oh, money, I have!"

“......”

Sun Chenghuan patted his forehead.

I'm stupid, really.

Yes, I don't have any money, so I'll let her ......

"Where did you get the money for a little girl?"

"Uncle Reese's money is basically all in my possession! The contents of his own storage ring are all spell-casting materials, precious alchemy metal...... It's worth more than money anyway. Erin looked right, "There is something like gold coins, he feels troublesome." ”

For this reason, full marks.

It's just that......

"Can you show me one of the gold coins in your ring?"

"One?" Erin just waved her hand, and a whole bunch appeared on the ground.

Akira's Sun Chenghuan was dizzy.

This one......

I'm really stupid! Why did I just go to Nazaire and can't afford a house! This is a princess!

Do you know what a princess is, except for pretty, cute, long blond hair and a nice voice...... In addition, you have to have money first!

However, the question still needs to be confirmed......

"We may not be able to use this gold coin. Sun Chenghuan took one out of that large pile, looked at it for a while, and shook his head a little regretfully.

"Ahh

"This is our current gold coin, you can look at it again. Sun Chenghuan took out the last remaining gold coin from his pocket and handed it to Erin together.

Contrast.

"It seems that I want to make these bigger, and the flowers printed on them are different. ”

"Well, you're the gold coin used by the Duchy of Merce before, and I'm ...... It is used by the current Merce country, and it is naturally different. ”

"It doesn't matter! Erin took it in her hand and weighed it for a while, and then her expression calmed down, "It's more valuable, isn't it? Even if people hold a collection, they will think it's more cost-effective than your current gold coin!"

“...... You have a lot of point. Sun Chenghuan was stunned for a moment and nodded.

yes, collection......

It's not because it's heavy, it's ......

But the gold coins of the Duchy of Merce from 1,700 years ago!

There are still a few of them in this world!

How many rich people will be interested in collecting!

This...... Isn't it worth more than gold coins?

"Put it all away, give it to me...... Five! Five is enough. ”

"No, it's all for you, big brother! you spent a lot of money for me yesterday......"

"I don't have a storage ring!" Sun Chenghuan had a black line on his head, "It's only five, that's enough." ”

"Oh......" Sun Chenghuan nodded, and a large pile of gold coins on the ground disappeared.

Only five remained.

"Here, activate your Holy Light Shield or something, go out with me!"

"Hang out? yes! yes! but ...... Wait for me to wash my face, right?" Irene instantly became happy when she heard that she was going out to play, but she soon remembered that she hadn't washed her face since she got up.

"Let's go!" Sun Chenghuan smiled and shook his head.

......
