Although this crater was a mud pit, the earth had been sulfided, and it was black and indistinguishable from this meteorite in appearance. And it was buried underneath and could not be deducted by hand digging at all, and the iron base was warped out with his half-cut broadsword. It's just that now his big knife only has a blade like a kitchen knife, but the grip is still intact, and if it is a kitchen knife, then this grip is too long. Even this old iron is reluctant to throw it away.

Sha Zhantang couldn't look at it, so he said casually: "Throw it away, I'll give you a handful when I go back." ”

"That's not going to work, you can still mine. ”

Everyone finally felt a little relaxed.

Then everyone searched so carefully, and found a total of five such meteorites, all of which were surprisingly all of them similar to tiles, but of different sizes, the big ones were like two palms, and the small ones were only spoon-like.

After that, no new meteorites could be found, and it was dark. Probably because of the cloudy day, it got dark a little earlier.

Fang Lin said: "It seems that there should still be underwater, but are we still worth going underwater?"

Sha Zhantang followed: "Brother Phantom, what do you say!"

"Forget it, let's go back. ”

Out of the forest, it was completely dark, but you could barely see something. Everyone found a dry place to camp down, in fact, it was to meditate, eat some dry food, and discuss the case by the way.

"Brother Phantom, what do you think of this case so far!"

"I thought about it for a long time, connecting all these things, and guessed that the mysterious swordsman should be the mastermind of this case, and the strange beast should have been irrelevant, at most it was an implicated individual. The messenger should have some connection with the mysterious swordsman, but as for the purpose of the messenger pulling the divine knife village in, I don't know if it was his selfishness or something related to the mysterious swordsman. ”

When Phantom Xisha said this, he suddenly changed his words and asked Sha Zhantang: "Old Sha, do you see if the black blade of this meteorite is a metal material. ”

Sha Zhantang replied: "Don't say it, it's really like." To put it this way, I think the black blade of the half-cut scythe and the knife are the same metal. ”

"I still can't figure out whether the brothers who were in distress were killed by the mysterious swordsman or by the beast. ”

This time it was Fang Lin who intersected: "That strange beast is full of hostility towards that mysterious swordsman, maybe those people in the security team were killed by that mysterious swordsman." Just experiment with that half of the scythe. If the wound is also charred and black, then there must be no suspense. ”

"Shhhhh If so, who transferred the corpse, could it be the mysterious swordsman? Totally unreasonable, unreasonable!"

Phantom sat cross-legged, his sword resting on his knees, his hands rubbing his temples in a headache posture.

There was a flash in the cold sky, but no thunder was remembered.

Phantom Xisha said casually: "If it rains a little more, it will be lively." ”

The rain did not fall, but the lightning hit for half the night, and the next day the sky was clear! Everyone set off and hurried back to the Shendao Village.

Sha Zhantang invited a man to test the sickle, and it was not toxic. He had a branch found and chopped it down with a scythe in his two fingers. The branches were broken, but the incision showed no signs of burning.

Phantom Xi frowned, and he suddenly said to the knife, "Knife, you try your black blade." ”

The knife drew out the black blade, and when it went down, the branch broke in two, and when I looked at it again, the section of the branch was charred black.

Everyone was surprised, and Phantom Sunset let the knife try it with the sickle, and it was also scorched. Immediately, he said to Sha Zhantang: "Lao Sha, you try to enter some internal force into the knife." ”

Sha Zhantang tried it as he said, and this time there was really charred black on the branches.

Only then did Phantom Xisha furn his brows, and said with some excitement: "Now it can be concluded that these things must be the mastermind of the mysterious swordsman." There is no need to investigate the case any further, and now the only people who know about this case are the mysterious swordsman and the strange beast. Iron Alliance Lord, when you go back, you will tell Brother Tie to issue a wanted warrant to arrest the mysterious man in black. ”

At this time, Sha Zhanting came to the school with a person, "Big brother, Lao Li is here." He forged the black blade, and his friend entrusted him with it, so he didn't tell it. ”

Phantom Xisha asked first, "This old man, do you know this knife?" ”

The knife cooperated and handed over the black blade, and Lao Li nodded. Sha Zhantang handed over the sickle again and asked, "Do you know this sickle?" This time Lao Li shook his head.

Phantom asked again, "Do you know both of the two people on the portrait?"

Lao Li replied: "I know, one is called Song Yi, and the other is Jiang Meng." They were sworn brothers. Ten years ago, the two of them came to me with a meteorite and asked me to make two knives for them. I saw that the meteorite was very light, so I said that I could only hit it. They discussed it and only fought a handful. ”

"The person who sent the letter is Song Yi or Jiang Meng. ”

Lao Li was puzzled, and Sha Zhanting replied for him: "Jiang Meng." The man didn't mention Lao Li when he came, and seemed to be deliberately concealing it. And we naturally don't know, so Jiang Meng came to report to Lao Li and didn't know at all. ”

"When you first investigated the two people on this portrait, why didn't Lao Li come out to say it at that time. ”

At that time, Lao Li didn't know about it. He usually only forges knives in the smelter, and he doesn't step out of the door. Because this matter involves grievances in the rivers and lakes, we are all secretly searching, and there is no notice posted in the open. It was also because we didn't do our best, and at that time this image spread to various sects, how could we have thought that these two people happened to be our realm. ”

It's clear that the illusion is wrong, and it can only be said that it is a mistake. Everything in the world depends on a clever word, and a clever word can be both round and wrong. But it is the will of God, and it has its own fixed number.

"Then where is Song Yi's wife now?"

"I didn't hear that Song Yi has a wife. Lao Li said suspiciously, "As far as I know, Jiang Meng has a wife." Maybe Song Yi married later, but I don't know. ”

"Song Yi is dead, do you know about it!"

"Dead! ”

"Ten years ago. Jiang Meng also died a while ago, you know. ”

"I don't know. I've only heard rumors that many brothers have died in our Divine Sword Village, but I haven't paid attention to how they died. In this way, Song Yi and Jiang Meng have something to do with this matter. ”

"I don't know if Song Yi has anything to do with it, but Jiang Meng definitely has something to do with it. By the way, you said that Jiang Meng has a wife, so do you know where his wife is now?"

"I know that......"

Because it was about Xiaodao's life experience, Huan Xisha did not let Sha Zhantang and the others accompany him, but just asked a guide to take him and Xiaodao there.

Mrs. Jiang's address is in Taigong Village, which is more than 70 miles north of Shendao Village. It is said that this village was once the birthplace of Jiang Taigong, and it is also said that it is only a village where Jiang Taigong lived, but the legend has long been impossible to verify. But the vast majority of people in Taigong Village are surnamed Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang's family is also surnamed Jiang, and she and Jiang Meng are from the same village.

Today's Mrs. Jiang can look like she is in her forties, but the women in the mountains and villages look a little old, and she may not be forty years old.

After inquiring into the village, the people in the village avoided it, and it took five taels of silver for Huan Xixu to inquire from an eldest lady, and it turned out that Mrs. Jiang did not live in the village anymore.

The lady took the three of them to the location, pointed to a thatched hut in the distance, and hurried away. There is a large pond at the back of the hut, and on the side of the pond there is a small patch of mulberry trees and a small patch of fruit trees.

When the Illusory Sunset and the knife arrived, Mrs. Jiang was fiddling with the silkworms. A small yellow dog saw the two of them wagging their tails and came up, but they were not wavy.

Mrs. Jiang was a little surprised to see the two of them, but she looked at the knife twice.

"Who are the two little boys?"

"Oh, Mrs. Jiang, we're here to find Jiang Meng!"

"I don't know Jiang Meng. Mrs. Jiang dodged over and continued to play with the mulberry leaves, which were densely packed with many large silkworms.

Huan Xi pretended to sigh, and deliberately said to Xiao Dao: "Xiao Dao, it seems that your life experience is impossible to investigate." I don't know if your father is Song Yi or Jiang Meng!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang's body trembled, and she turned around, "You, you!"

Huan Xisha said again: "Mrs. Jiang, you don't know Jiang Meng, so do you know Song Yi." Back then, Song Yi fled with the baby in his arms, and Jiang Meng chased and killed him. This baby is the knife. ”

Mrs. Jiang stood on the spot, quickly reacted, ran to the front of the knife and grabbed him and cried: "Child, you are not dead, are you not dead!"

Xiaodao was also quite excited, but he still maintained some stability, "Mother." Are you my mother?"

"Mrs. Jiang, can you tell me about the past now!"

Mrs. Jiang sighed and said, "It's a sin." Forget it, it's hot and stuffy in the house, just outside, sit down!"

Mrs. Jiang pulled the knife and sat down, and Phantom Xixu found a low stool at random and sat down too. The one who led the way was so knowledgeable that he ran to the edge of the pond to catch fish.

Mrs. Jiang immediately recounted the life story of the knife.

Jiang Meng's family has some assets in Taigong Village, Jiang Meng has been learning from a swordsman since he was a child, and then he has been wandering around. One year, when he returned to the village, he married Mrs. Jiang. At that time, Mrs. Jiang was only seventeen years old. It was a good Chunhua, but who knew that Jiang Meng left his wife at home alone, and he didn't rush back until three years later.

This time, he also brought someone back, Song Yi, who said that he was a sworn brother.

After he returned, he only stayed for two days and then left with Song Yi again. But this time it was back soon.

Song Yi has lived in Jiang's house since then. He called Mrs. Jiang his sister-in-law, but in fact, Song Yi was several years older than Mrs. Jiang.

The two fell in love after going back and forth, and when he learned that Mrs. Jiang hadn't broken down for so many years, he suddenly thought of Jiang Meng's attitude towards him, and couldn't help but get goosebumps.

The more Song Yi thought about it, the more afraid he became, and Mrs. Jiang had no feelings for Jiang Meng, so the two agreed to elope.

After two years with Hemeimei, they gave birth to the next big fat boy. Who knew that on this day, Jiang Meng actually found the two of them, and he couldn't help but say that he would kill them with a knife.

Song Yi hugged the child and fled, he was afraid that the child would be left with Mrs. Jiang and delay her.

Half a year later, Jiang Meng came back, but he didn't have any ill will towards Mrs. Jiang, just treated her as an irrelevant person and told her that Song Yi was dead, and the child was also dead. He also wrote a letter of resignation to Mrs. Jiang.

After that, Mrs. Jiang returned to the village, and no one but her parents wanted to pay attention to her.

When her parents died, she moved out of the village and came here to raise silkworms and fish for a living.

After returning to Phantom Sword Villa, Knife settled his mother in the big car shop. At this time, he still called An Fenghai father.

Postscript:

In a hidden cave, a figure fled in confusion, holding half a scythe in his hand, and when he reached a fork in the hole, three or five people came out, and he entered the cave and shouted, "Close the door, close the door!" Her voice was hoarse and sharp, like a woman.

With a muffled creak, a stone door landed and closed the entrance to the cave, and another black shadow rushed over, but it was a strange beast, and the strange beast waved its tail and left several black marks on the stone door, and it could not break through the door and hesitated to enter the deeper part of the cave!
