Chapter 6: The Sigh of the Ice and Snow Goddess (Part II)
The old man in black said helplessly: "I'm already old, although my skills have become more exquisite with experience, but my physical strength is no longer good, and I don't have the energy to collect good materials anymore, what good things can be created. It's a pity that in this life, I only came out with that satisfactory knife. Since you want to see it, then follow along, it's okay to choose a handle for your fat apprentice to use first. With that, he turned and walked towards the room behind the counter.
Nian Bing and Cha Ji bypassed the counter and followed the old man in black into the room, as soon as they entered the door, Nian Bing's brain felt dizzy again, the fluctuation of the Ice and Snow Goddess Stone this time was even stronger, and the icy cold air was a little unbearable even for him who cultivated ice magic, and subconsciously touched the gem in his arms.
Cha Ji exclaimed: "Such a strong murderous aura, worthy of being the number one god caster in the mainland." ”
The old man in black walked to the cabinet next to him, opened the cabinet door, and said, "All I left are these seven knives, you can look at and choose." The price is 100 for you. ”
There are seven unsheathed knives hanging in the cabinet, each of which has a different style, under the illumination of the oil lamp, the cold light is shining, and a faint coldness swept in, and the sharp edge of the seven-handled knife faintly flashes with a faint blue luster, the style is simple, and suddenly I can't find a trace of flaw. As soon as the cabinet door opened, Nian Bing's gaze subconsciously fell on the knife on the far left, and he stared at it for a moment, the knife was the most inconspicuous of all the seven knives, and it was also the shortest. Under the illumination of the oil lamp, only it has no gloss reflection, the blade is dim, about one foot two inches long, of which the handle is five inches long, the whole body is black, the streamline of the blade is extremely graceful, the blade is straight, the tip is slightly warped, the blade is two inches wide, and the back of the knife looks very thick. The reason why Nian Bing was attracted to it was entirely because of the breath, it was a feeling from the heart, as if this knife was supposed to be his, and the chill of the Ice and Snow Goddess Stone became even stronger, as if it was calling for something.
Nian Bing walked towards the cabinet step by step with a dull gaze, Cha Ji was just about to hold him, but was stopped by the old man in black, "After all, it's the knife he uses, let him choose for himself." Well, it seems that this kid has a good knife and has already made his own decision. As soon as he said this, he suddenly found that Nian Bing reached for the short knife on the far left side of the cabinet, and couldn't help but sigh.
Cha Ji knew very well that these seven knives must be good and bad, in the case of the same price, the selection is naturally extremely important, seeing that his fat apprentice actually chose the most inconspicuous one, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, turned his head to look at the old man in black, in his mind, his old friend must be gloating at this time. However, when he saw the expression on the face of the old man in black, he couldn't help but be stunned, the old man in black at this time was staring at Nian Bing's hand with wide eyes, his lips were buzzing, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
Nian Bing was not tall, pinched the tip of the knife in front of him and picked it up, and took off the inconspicuous short knife. As soon as the knife came into his hand, a cold current immediately came from him, which made his body and mind feel greater, but the mana fluctuations in his body seemed to be more intense. Holding the threaded handle and looking carefully, I saw that there was a diamond-shaped hole in the handle, as soon as the handle was in his hand, Nian Bing suddenly clearly felt that the ice magic power in his body seemed to be completely connected to this knife, and the knife became an extension of the left arm.
"Master, I want this. Nian Bing waved the short knife casually, bringing out a light blue light, and the temperature in the entire room seemed to drop a little.
As soon as Zha Ji saw the blade of the knife emitting light, and then thought of the expression on the face of the old man in black, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You fat boy, it seems that you are crooked." The little broken knife is just that. ”
The old man in black looked at Nian Bing in surprise, and suddenly, his figure flashed forward, and the speed was like lightning and fire, and in the blink of an eye, he came to Nian Bing's body, and reached out to grab the short blade in his hand.
Nian Bing was startled, almost an instinctive reaction, the knife in his left hand flipped over, and the blade was towards the old man in black, and the cold aura emanated, but unfortunately, the left hand was not the right hand that had been trained for a long time after all, and he only felt that the knife in his hand was light, and the knife suddenly fell into the hands of the old man in black. Nian Bing was stunned, "Senior, what are you doing?"
Cha Ji walked up to Nian Bing's side, pressed his shoulder and said, "Little broken knife, you won't be reluctant." What kind of knife is this?"
The old man in black stroked the blade of the knife, sighed helplessly, and said, "Frankly speaking, I never thought that you, the fat apprentice, would choose this one, this is the worst of the seven knives!"
Cha Ji frowned and said: "The knife is out of the light, how can it be bad, if you are not willing to forget it, I will not be strong." ”
The old man in black said angrily: "Do you think I'm reluctant? I haven't counted what God Casting Huatian said, since I said let you choose for yourself, what you choose is what it is." This knife is indeed the worst of the seven. And, it's the only one that wasn't minted by me. The reason why there is light is emitted, it is the reason for your apprentice, if I am not mistaken, your apprentice should have cultivated ice magic, otherwise, it is impossible to draw out the sword light. I didn't expect you to actually cultivate a descendant of a magician. ”
Cha Ji smiled and said, "It's just fate." It's bad, it's bad, anyway, you said that Nian Bing is still young, so you can change it later. ”
The old man in black said, "I haven't finished my words yet. Although this knife is the worst of the seven, however, it can also be said to be the best. Because, even I can't figure out its knife nature. Originally, I bought this cold knife from a down-and-out scholar for only one gold coin. The blade is made of a special mineral, very tough, and the most peculiar thing is its own coldness, if it is activated by ice magic or cold fighting energy, it will emit the same light as before, but do you know why I say it is the worst? Because this knife has no soul. ”
"Soulless?" Nian Bing and Cha Ji said in unison. Both of them had doubts in their eyes.
The old man in black, Hua Tiandao: "Yes, this knife has no soul." Little fat man, how old do you think I am this year?"
Nian Bing was originally waiting for the old man in black to explain, but when he changed the topic, he subconsciously said, "You, you should be a little older than my master." ”
Hua Tian laughed, "Little fat man, you are kind, if you change to someone else, I am afraid that I will say that I am ten years older than your master." But in fact, I am three years younger than your master. I have cultivated Dou Qi since I was a child, and according to normal circumstances, I should age much slower than ordinary people, but now I look a full twenty years older than my actual age. Why is that? Because when I was casting, I took the essence of blood as my soul and fused it into the weapon. This method of seizing the sky has caused a great loss of my essence, and it has become what it is now. And this cold knife, but without the soul of the sword led by the essence of blood, the soulless knife, no matter how good the material is, it will not be able to reach the best realm after all. So, although its material is the best, the quality is the worst. ”
Cha Ji said: "With your casting process, just rebuild this knife, and give it a soul, won't it achieve another superb one?"
Hua Tian smiled bitterly: "You can think of it, how could I not think of it." But I've tried many times, and even if I use the Nine Heavenly Fire, I can't burn this knife, how can you ask me to refine? With my knowledge of metal, I can't tell where it came from, and I can only hide it first. If there is no soul, there is no soul, and you are just using it as a kitchen knife anyway. This blade is as sharp as clay, and it is natural to cut vegetables, but be careful not to cut off the board. As he spoke, he handed the knife back to Nian Bing.
Nian Bing took the knife, and the feeling of being one with the body reappeared, "Senior, isn't there a way to give it a sword soul?"
Hua Tiandao: "It's not that there is no way. If you can find a spiritual gem set in the hole in the hilt, it is not impossible to use the stone as the soul, and the effect may be better. It's just that if the gemstone is not the best, it will be cumbersome to set it. ”
Nian Bing's heart moved, isn't the Stone of the Ice and Snow Goddess a diamond-shaped? The size seems to be similar to the hole on the hilt, after hesitating, he took out the Stone of the Ice and Snow Goddess from his arms, and said, "Senior, do you see this line?" As soon as the Stone of the Ice and Snow Goddess came out, the whole room suddenly lit up with a light blue light, and the cold knife made a soft sound, as if it was alive, and trembled slightly in Nian Bing's hand. Although the stone of the goddess of ice and snow usually has a radiant glow, it is definitely not as bright as it is today, and the stone and the knife complement each other, as if calling each other.
