Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Great Knife Master
The morning rain is gentle, the cow hair is fine, falling to every corner of the city, moistening the earth, the smoke cage is cold, the breeze is blowing, the ancient city Bian He is delicate and soft, and the pedestrians on the street stroll, enjoying the tranquility brought by the drizzle.
In the supreme VIP room of the Longtingju Inn, the young man sat cross-legged on the ground, his pupils were bloodshot, staring intently at the bouldering with his hands, the golden blade was flying, dancing, the posture was beautiful, the movements were delicate, and the stone floc fell off, gradually revealing the crystal clear and dust-free jade.
The jade is dust-free and dirt-free, just like the fairy river washed out after countless years, delicate and agar, clean and simple.
"Peel off a layer of stone skin and you'll be on the jade!"
The young man's eyebrows were beads of sweat rolling down, unaware, all the spirit was condensed on the golden blade, and every knife and every blade was under control, and it was extremely meticulous.
Cutting stone and peeling jade has strict requirements for knife work, the strength is more than a millimeter to hurt the jade, less than a millimeter to peel off the stone skin, one point faster, the stone skin will hurt the jade, one point slower, the stone skin will scratch the jade.
Tools, eyesight, and mentality are extremely important.
In the world, the professional knife master is responsible for cutting stones and peeling jade, and if you meet the treasure jade, you have to ask the big knife master, but the small traders buy the finished products from Saigon, and the profession of the knife master is not loud in this area, and no one even pays attention to it.
The knife used by the immortal breath is the golden blade given by his master to cut fruits, and the golden blade cuts stones and breaks gold, but it is a pity that this is a kind blade.
He once didn't believe it, so he used this golden blade to kill the spring fish, using what he had learned all his life, and then the golden blade sank like a thousand pounds, lingering.
The morning rain rustled and fell to the roof, gathering raindrops and ticking to the ground.
Creak.
The door opened, Raymond stepped out, stretched his arms, exhaled, took a deep breath, and exhaled: "Comfort!"
Last night, without Dongfang Li's entanglement, the whole body was unrestricted, the big bed was soft, and if you loved to roll, you would roll, and you didn't worry about fierce beasts and fierce birds, the spirit was loose, and the sleep could be called a sweet.
"yes, it's so early for Koike!"
Raymond immediately greeted him.
"Raymond, Dongfang Li didn't come back last night?
Li Xiaochi is wearing a white dress, a light yellow gauze coat, the whole body looks concave and convex, a pretty face full of collagen, at this time Zou raised his eyebrows, a little more melancholy, his eyes were bright, the spirit was shining, and the ponytail added a little purity, especially when speaking, the angle of the mouth was curled up is the finishing touch, the little girl next door, the little jasper.
When Raymond saw him walking downstairs from Xiaochi, he couldn't help but be a little fascinated and stunned for a few breaths.
"He, he's too unreliable, Young Master Changxi confessed yesterday and set off this morning, but he hasn't come back at this hour, it's too unreliable. ”
"Oh, by the way, Likoike, do you know how much we spend?"
Raymond's father is a teacher, and since he was a child, he warned him that although money is something outside his body, sometimes he can't even keep his body without money, which proves that the former escapees of the Longtingju Inn, who didn't even keep his body without money, knelt down and died outside the city.
Although he does not love money, he is sensitive to it.
Now, Dongfang Li has not come back, what if the funds are not enough?
It's not a bad idea to ask ahead and be prepared.
"Let's ask!"
From Xiao Chi being woken up by Raymond, it suddenly occurred to him that if he didn't ask in advance, what if the funds were not enough?
I asked in advance, the funds are not enough, you can still keep people at the Longtingju Inn, send someone to find Dongfang Li, or find a way to raise the required expenses for consumption.
Don't ask in advance, carry the burden, take the bag to the first floor, ask, the funds are not enough, go back upstairs embarrassed, don't go back upstairs and can't afford to go, even more embarrassing.
Thinking of this, he sped up his pace from Koike.
Three feet away from the entrance of the Longtingju Inn, a team of guards with spears in their hands stood tall and tall like pines, rustling in the rain, and did not move, following closely behind the three carriages.
The horses are tall and sturdy, with jade chains hanging on their heads, the wheels of the carriage behind them are two meters high, the canopy is made of glass, the windows are trimmed with gold and silver, and the mink carpet inside, and the coffee table and books are all available.
The whole carriage is magnificent, and the people who travel must be either rich or expensive.
Many pedestrians watched from afar, wondering what kind of big man they were receiving, and they were fighting like this.
In front of the guards, the guards of the two city gates squatted on the ground, staring at the Longtingju Inn with their eyes, and seeing many guests leaving the Longtingju Inn with umbrellas, the two of them became more and more anxious.
"It's already time, why haven't they come out yet, don't they have an umbrella, and want to wait for the rain to stop?"
The guard at the city gate with the axe next to him wondered.
"No way. ”
"Longtingju Inn, as long as you have money, not to mention umbrellas, even carriage mounts can be given to you, they can rest in Longtingju Inn, how can they not afford to buy umbrellas?"
The guard at the gate with a spear next to him broke his suspicion with a word.
"Then when will they come out, we can't wait like this, and according to rumors, our new city lord is a disciple of the Taixu Sword Sect who was expelled from the sect by the Taixu Sword Sect. ”
"The Taixu Sword Sect expelled the master, it is conceivable that the new city lord must have done a lot of bad people before, maybe he is still the one who licks the blood from the knife edge?"
"The people who licked the blood from the knife point told us to invite them early in the morning, if it was too late, we might not be able to save our two lives. ”
The more the guards at the city gate spoke, the more anxious they became, and the knife was already on their necks.
"What then?"
"We can't go into the Longting Inn and invite someone!"
The other guard shuddered.
"yes, what should I do!"
"Oh, by the way, we can't go into the Longtingju Inn to invite people, but we can enter the Longtingju Inn to find out the truth, if they don't come out today, we can also return to the new city owner, in this way, we will do our duty, even if the new city master kills us, then we can't, but at least we have a clear conscience and haven't done anything wrong!"
The guard at the city gate with a spear next to him had a flash of inspiration, and he instantly came to his senses.
"That's right, probe the truth!"
The two put down their axes and spears, took off their armor, and walked in.
"Ahh
"Twenty-five spirit stones?"
"So expensive?"
Li Xiaochi Zou frowned and said in surprise.
They only ate one meal last night, and they didn't eat supper at night, and they slept when they came back, how could they need twenty-five spirit stones, is this sure it's not a robbery?
Raymond's eyes widened.
He didn't eat a bite last night, so the money shopkeeper shouldn't count his share!
These words were being heard by the guards of the two gates who came in.
"Feelings are no money to pay the bills?"
The two of them were slightly stunned, and suddenly woke up: "How can I leave the inn if I don't have money to pay, I can't get out of the inn, how can we invite them to the City Lord's Mansion." ”
"You know, the Lord of the New City asked us to invite them to the New City Lord's Mansion in the way of invitation, this relationship is probably extraordinary!"
"And if the New City Lord knew that we knew that they were trapped in the inn because of the twenty-five spirit stones and could not be saved, would he spare us?"
"It's just that they are like this, how can they be trapped in the Dragon Pavilion Inn because of only twenty-five spirit stones?"
"Whatever?"
"The point is that we have to invite them to the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Let's go, go out and total!"
The two understood, winked at each other, and ran out quickly.
As soon as the two of them came out, they immediately raised the Huang Tie Ling, and almost roared: "Have you seen the Huang Tie Ling in Lao Tzu's hand?"
"Now I order you, those who have money should quickly take it out for Lao Tzu, and those who have no money should quickly borrow it from Lao Tzu, and if you can't get together twenty-five spirit stones, Lao Tzu will ask you about your head. ”
"Do you understand?
"Understood, don't hurry up yet!"
