The three of them chatted for a long time, and before they knew it, it was noon. At this time, everyone happened to be a little hungry in their stomachs, so Liu Yi got some wine and food, and the three of them sat together, and then chatted while eating.

Although the three of them have known each other for a short time, they hit it off at first sight, and the things they talked about were extremely extensive, so it could be said that they talked about everything. This also includes what has happened in recent years.

When Liu Yi learned what Qiao Zhengyu had done, he admired it even more, raised his glass to toast, pushed the glass with him, and praised him. Qiao Zhengyu was in a very good mood, and he was also courteous, toasting in return, and toasting each other with Liu Yi. The two of you come and go, so it's not happy.

Halfway through the wine, Qiao Zhengyu said: "I saw Brother Liu's extraordinary skills during the day, and I knew that Brother Liu was also a martial arts practitioner. The sword on the wall has a good appearance, I think it is Brother Liu's favorite thing, it must be a sword that sharpens iron like clay. ”

The so-called "the speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart", Liu Yi listened, smiled slightly, got up and walked to the wall, stretched out his hand to take off the sword, and returned to his seat.

"Brother Qiao, is this a sword that can be known as soon as it is drawn, why don't you pull it out and take a look. He handed the sword over.

Qiao Zhengyu stretched out his hand to take it, but his hand sank, and he secretly shouted in his heart: "What a heavy sword!" Hold the sword handle and pull it out hard. I only heard the sound of "swish", and with a flash of cold light, the sword was already out of its sheath.

"Ahh

"Brother Liu, this sword 。。。。。。 ”

Liu Yi smiled and said, "Brother Qiao is a little disappointed, but it's okay, you might as well try again and see how sharp it is?"

Qiao Zhengyu was suspicious, nodded slightly, and swung his sword towards the corner of the table. The sword was extremely sharp, and the blade of the sword slashed across the surface of the corner of the table, and he didn't feel any obstacle, but he had already penetrated into it, and he had already cut off one end of the corner of the table.

"Good sword!" Qiao Zhengyu couldn't help but shout, "Brother Liu, this sword is really sharp, it's a pity。。。。。。 When I thought that a good sword was broken, I couldn't help but sigh again and again, and I only felt sorry.

Ji Dan said: "Everything in the world is incomplete, how can it be perfect. Just like the moon in the sky, sometimes full and translucent, sometimes incomplete like a hook, yin and yang transform, round or missing, everything in the universe is still like this, let alone a sword.

"Although the sword is broken, the intention of the person who wields the sword is only on its edge, not on its length. The sword is so sharp that even if it is flawed, it is not spurned by its owner, but cherished by it, and this is where the value of the sword lies. ”

Liu Yi nodded and said, "Well, what the old hero said is extremely true. I bought the sword from an armory shop in the city, and I remember that when I first saw it, I was quite skeptical, and although I hesitated for a while, I finally decided to buy it.

"When I returned, I studied the sword carefully, and found that there was something very strange about it, and it was not as simple as it seemed. The sword was made of the finest dark iron, and it was not only extremely heavy but also extremely sharp.

"Judging by the length of the scabbard, the sword should have been three feet and one inch, but the refiner deliberately reduced the weight of the dark iron, making the sword two feet shorter. As for why the refiner did this, I struggled with my brain, but I couldn't figure it out.

"Later, I experienced many things in the rivers and lakes, so that one day I suddenly understood the truth. In fact, being a man is the same as this sword, which is restrained and low-key, hidden but not revealed, and does not show the dew everywhere, but exposes the light.

"People are like their swords, the stronger their ability, the more patient they must be, they are never sharp at ordinary times, but they are never soft at critical moments, and they will shoot when they should shoot, which is the highest state of life. ”

"Well, there is a good saying 'shoot when it's time to shoot', but there are not many people on the rivers and lakes who understand this truth. Liu Shaoxia already had such cultivation at a young age, which made the old man impressed. Come, I'll toast you. Ji Dan poured the wine to the brim, clinked glasses with Liu Yi, and then drank it all.

Liu Yi put down the sword, and was not polite, he immediately raised his glass and drank it, and he drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay!" Qiao Zhengyu clapped his hands, poured the wine full, and said: "Brother Liu, the world is so big, you and I can meet in this snowy mountain because of fate." We drank this glass of wine, and we were friends. ”

Liu Yi nodded and said: "Brother Qiao's intention is exactly what I want, Liu Yi doesn't have many friends in his life, and I can be regarded as a friend of yours." Clink glasses, then raise your head and drink it all.

The three of them drank from noon to afternoon, and only stopped when they saw that it was not early.

Liu Yi said to Qiao Zhengyu and the two: "Two, we still have to rush at night, it is better to rest in the room first, and it is not too late to leave when we are well refreshed." ”

Qiao Zhengyu said suspiciously: "Brother Liu, I don't understand this, this rush is usually during the day, and I have never heard of a rush at night, but Brother Liu does this but I don't know why?"
