Chapter 35: Sword Forging (1)
On this day, there were still no customers in the Chenwu Gym, and Jiang Chen was guarding the entrance of Suiyuan Alley, looking around, as if he was waiting for someone.
A few black ants crawled past his feet, if it was in the past, Jiang Chen would probably step on it at will, whether they die or not depends on the creation of these ants themselves, anyway, their lives are so small and insignificant.
But this time, Jiang Chen carefully moved his steps, for fear of stepping on the black ants-in case there was Mo Shu among these black ants!
In the days when Mo Shu was away, every time Jiang Chen saw a black ant, he was expecting a black ant to suddenly talk to him, but this kind of thing never happened.
Jiang Chen watched as these black ants crawled into the distance, and then continued to look around.
Half an hour later, a carriage stopped here, and an ordinary-looking woman came down from the carriage.
"Miss Junzhu, you went to Linglong Pavilion to buy medicinal herbs today, did you hear any news by the way?" Before he reached the Dao Pavilion, Jiang Chen couldn't wait to ask.
"What's the hurry!" Jun Zhu walked into the gym, slowly took off the mask from his face, and complained, "It's really uncomfortable to wear this thing for a long time!"
After the mask was removed, she suddenly became a fairy-like figure. Jiang Chen said: "If you don't wear a mask, the eyes of those people on the street can burn you!"
"Hmph!" Jun Zhu snorted coldly, she glanced at Jiang Chen, and said, "I want to know what news I heard?" Then you go to fetch a basin of water to let me wash my face. ”
"Yes, yes!" Jiang Chen hurriedly agreed, he had a benefit, although he was arrogant in his bones, he could also lower his voice whenever he asked for help. What's more, Junzhu is his big creditor, and he doesn't charge interest, so he should run errands and serve him.
Jiang Chen brought a basin of spring water and said, "This is the mountain spring water that we specially carried from the suburbs in order to make rune paper, please Miss Junzhu use it slowly." ”
Jun Zhu washed her face with mountain spring water, and the crystal water droplets hung on her eyelashes and jade-like skin, like bright pearls, Jiang Chen couldn't help but be a little daze when he saw this scene.
Until Jun Zhu wiped the water droplets with a handkerchief and scolded: "Why are you staring at me!"
Jiang Chen came to his senses at this time, he handed over a cup of tea with some embarrassment, and changed the topic: "What news did Miss Junzhu hear?"
Jun Zhu took a sip of tea and said, "There are no monsters in Pingyang Valley!"
"What?" Jiang Chen was stunned.
"There's really nothing!" Jun Zhu said: "The news that the two of you were injured by the demon beasts in Pingyang Valley has spread, and some time ago, some Jianghu cultivators went to kill demons in order to obtain demon beast materials. As a result, I searched again and again in Pingyang Valley, but there were no demon beasts in it at all, and I didn't even see a corpse. However, it seems that there has been a fire in Binh Duong Valley, and most of the valley has been scorched. ”
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded, speechless for a long time.
"How can this be?" Jiang Chen said secretly in his heart.
Jun Zhu continued: "According to your statement, there are at least three Black Tiger Demons and a dozen other demon beasts in Pingyang Valley. Not to mention other demon beast materials, the tiger skin of the black tiger demon alone is at least worth several pieces of good quality Dao jade. However, the scattered cultivators did not see the shadow of the Black Tiger Demon at all, and recently, no one in the Linglong Pavilion and the nearby Fang Market sold these demon beast materials. ”
"But that's what really happened!" Jiang Chen said, "We didn't talk nonsense!"
Junzhu said: "I believe in you too. Even if you can lie, Jiang Wu won't do it. However, the traces of demon beasts in Pingyang Valley were indeed cleaned up in a short period of time, as if nothing had happened. Now can you tell me why you rushed to Pingyang Valley that day?"
Jiang Chen said in his heart: "Most of the masters have fallen. Since he is gone, it doesn't hurt to tell Junzhu about the apprenticeship. ”
Jiang Chen briefly recounted the matter of the brothers apprenticeing to the master, and then receiving the master's message and rushing to Pingyang Valley.
The more Jun Zhu listened, the more surprised he became: "Your master is really weird! You have always been very smart, haven't you ever doubted him?"
"Suspicious Master?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, he shook his head, and said, "He is a master of Taoism, and he is very clever in Taoism, and he killed a vampire demon bat as soon as he made a move." If it weren't for his help, we would have died in the claws of the demon bat. Moreover, Jiang Wu's ability to have today's kendo attainments was all taught by him, and even the extremely high-quality Dianqing sword was also given by the master. Why doubt him?"
Junzhu shook his head and said, "Before I went out, I heard from my eldest sister that there are no pies falling in the world. There is also a saying, nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Strangers won't be nice to you for no reason, they must have something to do. Your master has never met you, but he just happened to meet him, and he taught you the exercises, and he gave you a sword, and he sent you a message to accept the inheritance at the moment of life and death. No matter how you look at such a master, it is really good, but it makes people suspicious. ”
"You can't say that!" Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Miss Junzhu, you are also very good to our brother, do you also have other intentions?"
"People didn't treat you well!" Jun Zhu immediately blushed: "People are just doing their duty to practice medicine and save people, and the medical expenses will not be waived!"
"Yes, yes, I will definitely find a way to repay the medical expenses!" When it came to the medical expenses, Jiang Chen dared to continue, he hurriedly changed the topic and said, "When Miss Junzhu said this, I also felt a little weird. However, our brothers have no power or wealth, so if Master has ulterior motives, what are we trying to do?"
"I can't guess that. Junzhu said, "Don't you think you're very smart? If you think about it carefully, you might be able to think of something." By the way, what about your shadow? He didn't follow you today?"
Jiang Chen smiled: "You mean Chenying, he went to the blacksmith shop." It was so strange that he was holding a chai knife all day long, and I sent the old iron sword to the blacksmith shop a few days ago, so that the blacksmith Ke could make a saber. I asked Tatsukage to fetch the knife. ”
"You let a fool get a knife?" Jun Zhu was startled: "What if he goes crazy?"
"Although Chen Ying is a little stupid, but he is not crazy!" Jiang Chen shook his head and said: "However, he has also been there for a long time, and he hasn't come back yet, I'll take a look." ”
"I'll go too!" said Junzhu, but she changed her mind at the thought of putting on another mask when she went out: "Forget it, I'll stay in the house and rest for a while." Can you lend me your "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum" to see?"
When the medical hall is not busy, Junzhu often comes to the Chenwu Gym, and the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum" has also been borrowed many times. The various monsters recorded in the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum", Jun Zhu is very interested.
"Just put it in the old place, you can go and see it yourself!" Jiang Wu practiced swords in the backyard, in case a guest came, let him show up. Jiang Chen nodded, explained, and went out by himself.
Jun Zhu walked into Jiang Chen's room, lifted the futon, opened the secret box, took out a copy of "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum", sat on the edge of the bed, and began to open it. After running around on the road for most of the day, she was a little sleepy, and when she looked at it, she put the book aside, curled up, and fell into a deep sleep.
