Compared with the richly clothed robes, the two ebony Tang knives lay quietly on the plain brocade in the box, looking unremarkable.

But for battlefield generals like Liu Bei and Guan Yu, such a knife shape that is very different from the first knife of Hanhuan makes the two of them shine.

At the warm invitation of Ding Yan, the two of them each took one of the handles, and were about to pull it out to take a closer look, when a servant hurriedly came to report: "General Zuo, Captain Xu Du of Sikong Mansion is visiting. ”

Liu Bei's heart was shocked, the joy on his face froze, and there were ten thousand bad guesses in his heart, I don't know what happened to Xu Chu, the cronie of Cao Cao's side.

But what kind of person he is, it was only a momentary gaffe, and the next breath was adjusted, and he smiled: "Please!" ”

Before the words fell, someone said angrily: "No need, Chu came in by himself." ”

Xu Chu pressed his hand on the sword, and strode in with a dignified-looking warrior surrounded by armor.

Entering the hall, a pair of shining eyes under Xu Chu's thick eyebrows swept around everyone in the room first.

It's like a fierce hound, coldly looking for something suspicious.

It is undoubtedly very rude for him to go straight to the briefing without waiting for the briefing.

In the past, Liu Bei had to make trouble, but now he only gritted his teeth and held Guan Yu's tight arm with one hand.

"I don't know what Captain Xu's visit is about?"

Xu Chu's eyes swept around Ding Yi's body, and when it came to the deterrent power of appearance, only Zhang Fei could compare with him.

Being looked at by such a big man with a waist around the waist with vicious dog-like eyes, Ding Yi's scalp was also numb, but he still bowed.

Xu Chu squinted his eyes, and his gaze swept over the box in the hall: "Liaoxi is an envoy, I don't know what happened to General Zuo's mansion?" ”

Ding Yan lowered his head and said: "Back to Captain Xu, the daughter of the late General Gongsun ordered the villain to bring a New Year's gift to General Zuo." ”

Xu Chu didn't answer when he heard it, but his eyes swept around again, and he suddenly smiled honestly: "Haha, so that's the case, Chu is reckless and doesn't know the etiquette, and I ask Xuande Gong to forgive me." ”

After speaking, this man looked like a reckless man, and he took the things he trespassed in a sentence.

Only his gruff laughter echoed in the hall.

Guan Yu on the side hated not to start, and sent people under the fence, he was so aggrieved.

Liu Bei didn't feel like this in his heart, but he didn't have the capital to be willful, so he pulled the corners of his mouth.

The martial artist who accompanied Xu Chu spoke at this time: "Xu Duwei has always been reckless, and he also asked Liu Yuanjun and Elder Brother Yun not to deal with him. ”

Xu Chu echoed his words, apologized again, and said, "Sikong ordered me to please." ”

What else could Liu Bei say, he only agreed: "I don't know what Sikong has?" ”

Xu Chu rubbed his chin and messy beard and said, "Sikong will set up a banquet and invite General Zuo to come over and drink." ”

Then he saw the knife in the hands of Liu Bei and Guan Yu: "What is in General Zuo's hand?" ”

He obviously saw that it was a knife, but he pretended to be stupid and asked.

Liu Bei suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "It is a New Year's gift from the daughter of General Gongsun." ”

"Oh? Sent from Liaoxi? The inkstone sent by Liaoxi last time, Sikong liked it very much, and he had to leave his body for a while. Xu Chu's eyes widened, "I don't know what treasure knife it is, Chu Ke is fortunate to have a look?" ”

The martial artist on the side, who tried his best to ease the atmosphere, also said kindly: "Liao also wants to see and understand." ”

Liu Bei took a breath and pulled the corners of his mouth: "I have no choice." ”

With that, he drew his sword and unsheathed it.

He saw that the long knife was ordinary in appearance, and he was spoiled in his interest, so he pulled it out casually.

Unexpectedly, with a sudden sound, the watery knife light made everyone's eyes flicker.

The twisted flame pattern with great ornamental value flows along the lines of the Tang horizontal knife, like a raging flame, casting a snowy light and shadow on the beam.

Guan Yu also pulled out the long knife in his hand, the shape of the knife was the same, but the blade of the knife was an ice crack like a steel ball forged.

Even Xu Chu, who had the intention to investigate, forgot his purpose for a while, and opened his eyes wide: "This, what kind of knife is this?" ”

He asked Liu Bei, Guan Yu naturally couldn't get an answer.

Several people looked at the Liaoxi envoy Ding on the side at the same time.

At the same time, Ding Yi was stared at with hot eyes by several fierce generals in the world, and some fine sweat instantly appeared on his forehead, and he forcibly stabilized and explained: "This is cast by the meteorite outside the sky in Liaoxi, called the horizontal knife. ”

"Extraterrestrial meteorite?"

"Horizontal knife?"

Which martial artist can refuse a good knife, and several people looked at Ding Yan with burning eyes.

Ding explained them one by one.

Xu Chu stared greedily for a long time, even if Guan Yu wanted to study it now, he snorted coldly and put the knife into the sheath and didn't show it to him.

Xu Chu retracted his gaze and looked at the remaining boxes.

Knowing that he didn't look at it today was uneasy, and there was really nothing unpleasant in the box.

Ding Yan stepped forward and opened the boxes one by one.

After the long knife, it is some special fur wool material of Liaoxi.

Considering that Liu Bei may not have enough money at hand, but he can't send money directly, Gongsun Yan got some gold hairpin ring jewelry and sent it over with his female relatives under the pretense of giving it to his daughter.

It's all some proper family gifts.

"There are also two horses from Liaoxi." Ding Yan held the last box and said, "In the end, this item was sent to General Guan alone." ”

Guan Yu didn't know why, but when he took a look, his slightly squinted eyes instantly widened.

In the box is a scroll of "Spring and Autumn" with clear handwriting, copied on waterproof lambskin

No matter how much you deny it, people are realistic.

After a few heavy gifts that pierced his heart, Guan Yu's favorability towards Gongsun Yan instantly exploded.

I couldn't put it down, and my face was flushed.

Xu Chu took one last look, and then said, "This lady who prepared the gift is very attentive." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Liu Bei: "Oh, it's been a long time, Sikong is going to scold me, I wonder if General Zuo will leave now?" So as not to wait for a long time. ”

It's just a long wait, and it's not because of you.

Liu Bei scolded secretly in his heart: "I was cleaning up the wild boar by the well platform before, and I was dirty, so it was really rude to see me like this, and I will go to change my clothes." ”

Guan Yu held the book in his hand and his expression moved: "Brother." ”

Liu Bei shook his head with a smile and said, "Sikong invited me to drink, Yun Chang doesn't have to follow." ”

Then he looked at the robe sent by Gongsun Yan on the side, and his face showed joy: "It's just right, wearing the robe sent by my niece." ”

After a while, he changed into a robe that Gongsun Yan claimed to have made with his own hands, and Liu Bei stood in the hall and turned around.

The deliberate look made Xu Chu's eyes retreat slightly.

I have long heard that this general Zuo was not good at reading when he was young, and he loved dogs and horses, but now he looks at it.

After a while, Liu Bei explained to Ding Yi again, and asked him to stay in the mansion for one night, and then left with Xu Chu and the others.

After they left, there was no one in the hall, and seeing that Guan Yu was worried, Ding Yi sighed softly.

"I never thought that Xu Du was so dangerous, the two of you should have made plans as soon as possible."
