Chapter 9 Practice knives and buy knives
"Childe is stronger again, taller and taller, and more and more courageous!"
When Yan Ruyu helped Gu Sheng get dressed, her fingers always scratched Gu Sheng's chest intentionally or unintentionally, which made Gu Sheng's body and heart a little itchy, so she simply pinched her face and pulled it to the side.
Yan Ruyu suddenly laughed.
After Gu Sheng put on his robe, he picked up the bronze mirror and looked at it, not only was his body stronger, but his face was also a little wider, not like the thin and thin appearance before.
The two eyebrows flew straight to the sideburns, and he looked much more heroic, I was afraid that if he returned to the original alley, no one else would recognize him.
It's really changed so much in just a few days, it's unbelievably big.
Gu Sheng walked into the courtyard to make a knife with his hands, and slowly practiced the tiger roaring knife technique.
Originally, it was familiar in my memory as if I had practiced for many years, but now after practicing it myself, I have learned it even more, and I know all the essentials.
After practicing one set, the speed became one point faster, and after two times, it brought the sound of breaking the air.
When he practiced for the fourth time, Gu Sheng was full of blood, and between his gestures, a battlefield killing aura jumped in.
If someone stood in front of him, he could find that it was really like facing a humanoid tiger, with a bloody killing aura in his face, and he was inherently weak.
"Huh......" Gu Sheng let out a long breath after closing his momentum, so that the surging blood in his body gradually calmed down, and he was in a good mood.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Yan Ruyu sitting on the threshold with her hands on her cheeks, looking at herself with a smile.
There was light in both eyes.
"Childe, the slave family wants to learn this! When you learn it, you can protect your childe! ”
"Okay, then I'll teach you, wait for you to protect me!" Gu Sheng said with a smile, wondering in his heart if Yan Ruyu learned this Tiger Roar Knife Technique...... Is it a tigress?
"Absolutely!" Yan Ruyu raised her arms and said.
"Childe, it's time to eat."
After eating, Gu Sheng went out again and went to the weapons shop to pick up a knife.
"Tiger Roaring Knife" pays attention to no return, and the force is heavy, so it is necessary to pick a heavy knife.
"Only these few?" Gu Sheng frowned slightly when he saw the few knives hanging in the blacksmith shop.
The few knives hanging in the blacksmith shop are all pig iron knives, and they are all one-handed knives such as Yanling knives and lancets, which are four or five catties lighter and only ten catties heavy.
"Whatever knife Xiang Gong wants, as long as he says, I can give you one. There is no one in the whole Qingyang County who has better craftsmanship than me. The blacksmith owner said immediately.
Gu Sheng thought about it and asked the boss to take out a pen and paper and draw a Pu knife.
The blade is 80 centimeters long, the blade is thick, almost curved, the front is pointed, and the handle is also 60 centimeters long.
"The handle of the knife should be iron, and the leather ...... covered," Gu Sheng said while drawing.
"The weight of this knife is not light, according to your requirements, at least more than 30 catties, ordinary people can't dance. Changing the long handle is immediately usable. After hearing Gu Sheng's words, the owner of the blacksmith shop immediately said.
"That's it, how long will it take to fight?" Gu Sheng asked.
When he came, he considered whether to use the Pu knife or the Mo knife, but after thinking about it, the Pu knife was thicker and heavier, which was more suitable for "Tiger Roaring Knife".
The boss is right, the short handle of this knife is a two-handed knife used by the infantry, and the long handle is used by the generals immediately.
"If this knife is made of iron, I am afraid that it is not tough enough, and it is easy to break when chopping. However, the time can be shorter, about three days can be obtained, thirteen taels of silver. ”
"If it is clamped steel, it will take at least ten days to get it, and the price will be thirty taels!"
The boss pondered.
"Steel-clipped ones." Gu Sheng said directly.
In this era, the people generally used iron knives, and the ones that clamped the steel were the best knives, but I didn't expect the blacksmith shops in the county town to be able to fight.
As for pure steel, it is generally not done that way, because the knife of pure steel is hard and has no toughness, and it is easy to break.
"I'll give you ten taels of money, and I'll take the knife too." Gu Sheng took down a knife from the wall, nearly a meter long, similar to a horizontal knife, but wider.
The weight is about eight catties, and I use it first when practicing the knife in the past few days, and then I can use it for Yan Ruyu.
"This knife will cost you six taels of silver."
Gu Sheng gave sixteen taels of silver, and there were only three taels left on his body.
A few dozen taels of silver were in my pocket before they were hot.
"I have to go back and read a book." Gu Sheng said secretly in his heart.
The money was spent too quickly.
Three taels of silver, which used to be enough for half a year.
However, if two people practice martial arts now, they need a lot to eat meat every day, and three taels of silver can support fifteen days at most.
Not to mention that there are still twenty taels of silver left to take the knife.
Gu Sheng walked down the street with a knife in his hand, and he had the heart to go to the gang in the south of the city to grab a handful.
"No wonder it is said that 'with a sharp blade and a murderous heart', this mastered the martial arts and had the weapon, and the heart immediately became restless." Gu Sheng pondered in his heart.
"If you don't have to read books by yourself, you might be able to come up with other ideas."
"It's good that I don't need to."
Gu Sheng thought for a moment and let out a long breath.
On the road, he occasionally heard someone talking about monsters, so Gu Sheng stopped and listened for a moment.
Last night, the Taoist priest of Qingyunguan still didn't find the monster.
When he went back, he bought two catties of meat and some fruits, and handed them to Yan Ruyu when he went back, and Gu Sheng rushed into the room.
Read, read, read.
At least you have to look at twenty taels first.
After dinner, Gu Sheng looked at the bunch of lychees that suddenly appeared on the table and fell silent.
Lychee is a good lychee, if I am not mistaken, it is the "mussel lychee" written in the book, known as the immortal product in the world, and it has been a tribute since the beginning of the previous dynasties.
The problem is, that's not what he wants.
Although if this hanging lychee is taken out, some wealthy businessmen buy it at a large price, and it is easy to sell it for a hundred taels.
The question is, can he take it out and sell it? And to whom can it be sold to?
It is better to give him ten taels of silver.
A whole afternoon and half an evening, and that's it?
Gu Sheng stared at it for a long time and sighed.
Pick one open, and the room is immediately filled with a sweet smell that makes your mouth water. Thrown into the mouth, it is sweet and tender, and it has a little glutinous taste.
"It's really delicious...... It is worthy of being a fairy in the world. ”
Gu Sheng felt that if this lychee was sold in his previous life, it would be sold for a thousand yuan per catty, and some people would buy it.
However, it was not what he wanted.
"Hey, it smells so good. Childe, you steal it! Yan Ruyu, who had just finished cleaning up, walked in and said with a smile.
"Take it and eat it." Gu Sheng pushed the lychee to her.
"You're welcome to the slave family." Yan Ruyu smiled and picked up a lychee, making a gesture to give it to Gu Sheng, and when Gu Sheng opened his mouth, he threw it into his mouth with a smile.
"It's so sweet! It's the first time that the slave family has eaten such a delicious lychee! Yan Ruyu exclaimed.
"This little vixen!" Gu Sheng shook his head and picked up another book.
As soon as he turned the page, a lychee was stuffed into Gu Sheng's mouth, and his fingers gently wiped it on Gu Sheng's lips.
"Childe eats."
Gu Sheng lowered his head to read the book, Yan Ruyu picked up the lychee on the side, and ate it all after a while.
Yan Ruyu regretted it again: "Alas, I ate it too fast, just leave a few to eat tomorrow." ”
Gu Sheng looked at the book for a while, and when he saw that it was getting late, he put the book aside.
He got up and said, "Aren't you going to learn the knife technique?" If you want to use a knife, you must first strengthen your flesh and bones, and now I will teach you. ”
"Okay!" Yan Ruyu said happily.
"Follow my movements and remember my breathing."
Yan Ruyu nodded again and again, looking at Gu Sheng with unblinking eyes, moving with his movements.
……
Two quarters of an hour later, Gu Sheng stopped moving, sweat was on his forehead, he felt that his body was much stronger, and the blood in his body was even more surging.
He felt that if he continued at this pace, it wouldn't be long before his qi and blood would be able to rise to the peak.
As for Yan Ruyu, she couldn't hold on for a long time, even if her physical strength far exceeded that of ordinary girls, she lasted less than a quarter of an hour. Then I lost all my strength, and I was still hungry, and hurried to find something to eat.
The method of refining the body in the general chapter of "Tiger Roaring Knife" is to squeeze the energy of each cell in the body through movement and breathing, and then strengthen the qi and blood.
Normally, you should eat a lot after each exercise to recover your body.
Auxiliary drugs also have this effect, replenishing physical strength, restoring the body, and at the same time increasing some strength.
Of course, the value of these drugs is also very expensive, at least a person needs a hundred taels of silver, or even more.
Now Gu Sheng only hopes that the medicinal strength of the Nine-Yearling Cicada can last for a while longer, at least until his qi and blood are raised to the peak.
Then get some medicines to replenish qi and blood.
Qian Bag said: Don't look at me, thank you.
