Chapter 14: Silvertail and Shou Wu
"You used to be a gray-haired old man"? The big man looked at Tian Yi with a puzzled face.
Tian Yi was even more surprised, "How do you know"?
"That's right, you will get younger and younger in the future and become a teenager", Dahan pointed to the three statues of the gods, and continued: "See, it is said that Tu Hu Daxian has just cultivated into a human form, and is a white-haired old man, as the Tao deepens, he becomes a middle-aged man, and then cultivates to a positive fruit, becoming a teenager, and bless my Donghu side."
"The sword on this divine stone was inserted into the divine stone with divine power when Tu Hu Daxian was cultivating, how can a mortal pull it out", said Dahan holding the scabbard for Tian Yi to see, "It says that only Tu Hu Daxian's true body can pull out this sword."
Tian Yi looked at it, it was some strange words, and he didn't recognize it at all.
Holding the sword himself, he was secretly amused: "There are two buckles at the root of this sword body, and you need to press and hold the two snap buttons at the gauntlet of the hilt, and you need to press and hold them at the same time to make the buckles retract and unlock, so that the sword will not slide out on its own in the scabbard, so as not to injure yourself by mistake."
"Of course, to make a circlip, the cost of the sword is higher, and the price is also high, not all long swords have this mechanism, and the people in their hometown are good at casting, and they know this when they are young."
"This sword is inserted in the stone, the buckle is embedded in the stone crack, how can it be pulled out without pressing the circlip, this must be a joke made by the previous sword master with everyone."
This sword is not like iron, nor bronze, I don't know what material it is made of, it may be old, it is covered with rust, it is very worn, the sword is wider than the palm of the hand, and it is thicker than the average sword, and it does not seem to be very sharp.
Tian Yi just pulled it out curiously, and was about to explain to the man with the sword, when the man suddenly beckoned, and everyone began to worship Tian Yi.
Tian Yi was just about to speak, Yun'er next to him shook his head, it should be a signal not to say it, Tian Yi was silent, raised his sword and gladly accepted the worship.
After worshipping, the leading man picked up the scabbard and handed it to Tian Yi: "Please Tu Hu Daxian sword return to the sheath", Tian Yi took the scabbard, it seemed to be made of animal skin, very rough, but the words on it, although I didn't know any of them, the strokes were vigorous and powerful.
The crowd bowed down, and reverently withdrew.
The leading man pulled Tian Yi away, like an eagle catching a chicken, Tian Yi had no strength to struggle.
Yun'er had no choice but to follow.
Dahan looked back and saw that there was no one else following him except Yun'er, and then he let go of his hand.
"I'm not a great immortal", Tian Yi spoke first.
"I know," Dahan replied.
"That~~".
Without waiting for Tian Yi to finish speaking, Dahan waved his hand and interjected, "I am the leader of this Donghu tribe, my name is Mankan."
"I know you have a doubt," said Mankan, "and I took advantage of you when you drew your sword just now."
"What do you mean"? Tian Yi still didn't understand.
"If Tu Hu Daxian occasionally appears during the worship, the clan will be more convinced and surrender to me."
Now Tian Yi understood.
"This sword"? Tian Yi handed over the sword.
"I'll give it to you", Mankan raised his hand and pushed the sword back, "It's not good for me to take it back and be seen by everyone."
"Then thank you to the leader", Tian Yi arched his hand: "I still have important things, so I will say goodbye."
"There will be a period later", Mankan laughed: "Just come and mention my Mankan name if you have something".
Bidding farewell to Mankan, the two continued on their way.
"These barbarians will also speak to us"? Tian Yi was puzzled.
"The people of Yanhu often come and go, so what's so strange about the exchange of words", Yun'er said with a smile, "Besides, the people are still the leaders."
Tian Yi is right to think about it.
As he was walking, Yun'er pointed ahead, and there was a cliff over there.
Sure enough, the two of them came close to look down, the straight cliff was dizzying, the cliff was overgrown with flowers and vines, but the weather turned cold, and they were a little yellow.
From a distance, there is a river under the cliff, and there seems to be a thatched hut by the river, as if there are people's homes.
The two walked along the edge of the cliff to search, but found nothing.
Tian Yi scratched his thumb with his index finger, obviously in a hurry, and said, "I don't know when I will find it."
"This silvertail grass and Shou Wu are already rare, how can they be so easy to find", Yun'er said: "We brought enough dry food and water, but we couldn't find it, so we could go to the Tuhu Daxian Ancestral Hall to live."
"Where to stay, those barbarians can agree"? Agree to look at Yun'er.
Yun'er said with a smile: "When you don't sacrifice, there is usually no one there, besides, you are the Great Immortal Buddha, it's okay to see it."
Seeing that it was late, the two really went to the ancestral hall to rest.
For several days in a row, there was still no gain, and Tian Yi was quite disappointed.
Tired of finding, sitting on the edge of the cliff to rest on the rocks, seeing an ant crawling, Tian Yi was bored, staring at the ant, to see where it was going to climb to carry food.
Seeing the ants crawling away, Tian Yi couldn't help but squat and follow, the ants crawled to the edge of a grass, touched it with its mouth, and suddenly fell down, motionless.
Tian Yi was surprised, and looked at the grass, the blades of grass were like silver needles.
"Silvertail"! Tian Yi exclaimed.
Yun'er heard the sound and came over to take a look, "Sure enough, it's silvertail grass, I've seen it, brother, don't move"!
As he spoke, Yun'er took out a handkerchief, grabbed the silvertail grass and pulled it out, and put it away, "There must be natural enemies within ten steps, Shouwu should be on the nearby cliff, I will keep this as a souvenir."
"I'm about to find Shouwu, isn't it sister", Tian Yi's index finger unconsciously scratched the thumb cover.
"It seems to be", Yun'er also felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
Tian Yi pulled some vines, tied them to the middle of the sword, slowly wrapped the vines around the body of the sword, tried to grab it, tied one end to the cliff pillar, and put it down with his feet, his body hung on the cliff, and he went down a few feet unconsciously.
Suddenly, he saw a herb, the root of which was the size of a thumb on a cliff, Tian Yi pulled it out with his free hand, and looked at the root as a whole like a human shape.
"Sister, this is Shouwu", Tian Yi shook it to Yun'er.
As he was talking, the vines suddenly broke, and Tian Yi fell off the cliff in an instant.
It's really joyful and sad.
