Chapter 39: The Rusty Sword (1)
The heat of the cup of tea on the wooden table is already very weak, and the white porcelain reflected in the dark green tea soup is even whiter. One hand reached over and picked up the lid, put it on the bowl, closed the lid and took it away, and the cyan sleeves seemed to complement the tea soup.
What did Ma Qian become and suddenly catch Dongfang Junlan?
What method did Qin Huaiyu use to instigate Ma Qiancheng?
Hearing that the monk suddenly appeared, was it just to explain to him that Dongfang Junlan had captured Ma Qiancheng?
With the sound of "horn", Li Jiang let go of the tea lid in his hand, the heat was squeezed into the bowl, and he propped his left arm on the wooden table, and naturally rubbed his nose with the thumb of his left hand.
"Li Shaoxia, this tea is cold! The slave will change a cup for you!"
The voice was very good, and Li Jiang couldn't help but move his gaze to the hands that stretched out, which were very white, but the skin was loose and covered with abrasions, and there were faint scars on the wrists.
Li Jiang couldn't help but raise his head, the maid was about twenty years old, her small eyes exuded a faint sadness, as if there was endless grievances, a shallow scar on the right side of her slightly collapsed nose, as if it was scratched by a blade of grass, and her waxy face looked extremely haggard.
There is a different look between the eyebrows, but there is some unwillingness and stubbornness in the weakness, like a cicada in autumn, knowing that the end is coming, but still using all his strength to express his existence.
"What's your name?"
"Cuckoo!"
The maid's voice was small, as if talking to Li Jiang would make her feel pain.
Li Jiang thought that his habitual indifference scared Du Juan, so his voice became very gentle, "Your surname is Du?"
When Du Juan heard this, he turned his head to look at Li Jiang, and then lowered his head, "The old pavilion master got up!"
"What was the original name?" Li Jiang himself was also very strange, he was not a person who talked much, he could see the maid in front of him, but he wanted to understand this woman inexplicably, "It shouldn't be that there is no name, right?" Li Jiang said jokingly.
"Qiang'er!"
"What's the last name?"
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside.
"I don't have a surname! I'm called Qiang'er!" the maid goddess avoided Li Jiang in a panic and hurriedly took away the tea.
Li Jiang shook his head helplessly, and asked himself, "Did I say anything that scared her?"
A crisp "pop" woke up Li Jiang, Li Jiang hurriedly looked, but saw Su Ya standing outside the door, picking up the pieces on the ground with the cuckoo, getting up and walking over.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Du Juan seemed to be afraid of Su Ya, even more so than Li Jiang.
Li Jiang walked over and asked softly, "What's the matter?"
Su Ya raised her head and smiled slightly, "I was in too much of a hurry and ran into the cuckoo!, so I broke the tea bowl!" After all the pieces were put on the tray, Su Ya put a small ingot of silver on the tray, "Take it, don't make a noise!"
"Thank you, Young Master Su!"
Su Ya sent the cuckoo away, turned around and saw Li Jiang staring at her, her face flushed, "They broke the cups and saucers to be deducted from the monthly money!"
Li Jiang was stunned for a moment, the past came to his mind, when he first entered the Mountain Demon Sect, because he was pushed to the bookcase, Su Ya, who had never met before, settled the difficulties of the Mountain Demon disciples for him......
"Ah......" Li Jiang saw Su Ya's face flush, and he knew that he was distracted, although Su Ya didn't say it explicitly, but he looked at Su Ya's expression, it should be something wrong, and he knew that something should be wrong.
Li Jiang said, "Miss Su, is something wrong?"
Su Ya said, "Senior Brother Huaiyu's spies came to report that the little master was arrested, saying that it was in Shen Village! The old pavilion master asked me to inform you, and now the old pavilion master has gathered heroes from all walks of life to discuss how to save the little master!"
"Thank you!"
"Won't Uncle Xiao come with us?"
Li Jiang frowned, "I'll go to find out the situation first, and Miss Su and heroes from all walks of life will follow!"
Su Ya nodded.
When Li Jiang walked to the gate of the courtyard, he was suddenly stopped by a person, "Li Jiang Gongzi!"
Li Jiang turned around and saw that it was Du Juan, "Du Juan, what do you have to wait for me to come back!"
When the cuckoo heard this, he didn't walk away, but trotted over, "Young Master Lijiang, please bring this!"
Li Jiang looked down and saw a sword.
"More ......" Li Jiang took the sword, and before he finished speaking, the cuckoo had already run away.
The sword is heavier than a regular sword.
Next to Shen Village is a dirt slope that looks like a cowering cat. Shen Village is like a cat cub nestled on the dirt slope, a piece of fields divided by Qianmo, growing green crop seedlings, from a distance, except for the black spot like houses are patches of woods.
At the foot is an earthy yellow avenue, because of a rain a few days ago, the avenue has become muddy, Li Jiang only cares about galloping horses, the horse's belly, trouser legs are covered with mud spots and can't care about much.
Since Ma Qiancheng was provoked by Qin Huaiyu this time, there will inevitably be a vicious fight. The last time I fought with Ma Qiancheng, because Li Jiang was holding a broken sword in his hand, Ma Qiancheng had the upper hand, and I don't know what the result would be this time.
Sword?
How does a cuckoo have a sword?
Li Jiang hurriedly reined in the horse, the black lacquer scabbard was wrapped in pig iron, Li Jiang held the hilt of the sword, only to feel that the feeling on the palm of his hand was very strange, he wanted to pull out the sword, but he couldn't pull it out without moving.
Is there a mechanism?
Li Jiang groped carefully, and there was no other mechanism on the scabbard.
The inside of the scabbard is also made of iron?
Because it's rusty?
Li Jiang sighed, held the hilt of the sword hard, the very strange feeling on the palm of his hand still existed, Li Jiang slammed his force, only to hear, stab.
It's on!
Li Jiang was overjoyed, but when he looked at it again, he was dumbfounded!
A layer of rust on the sword! How is it a rusty sword? Li Jiang pulled out the sword in its entirety, and it was indeed a rusty sword, except that the sword body was much wider and thicker than an ordinary sword, and there was nothing surprising about it.
What exactly does the Rusty Sword mean?
Divine weapons?
Or was it picked up by a cuckoo?
Li Jiang grasped the hilt of the sword and swung it gently, except for specks of rust falling, there was nothing unique about it.
Li Jiang sneered, "The cuckoo is just a maidservant, it's strange to have a sword, I'm afraid this sword has also been used by others!" Li Jiang looked at it, but he didn't see a gap in the sword, and the word "sword heart" was engraved on the sword.
In any case, it is also the heart of the cuckoo, it is better to have a sword than not to have a sword.
Li Jiang put the rusty sword back into its sheath and rode forward.
At this moment, there was a sound of horses roaring behind him, and Li Jiang turned his head to see that it was Su Ya.
"Young Master Su, why are you here?" Li Jiang saw that there was no one behind Su Ya and asked, "What about the others?"
Su Ya said, "Don't mention it!
It turned out that the people in the rivers and lakes summoned by the Lord of the Wan Lao Pavilion did not dare to come when they heard that the opponent was a dragon thief. Seeing this, Su Ya rushed over alone.
"Uncle Junior, where did you get the sword in your hand?"
Li Jiang sighed, "Cuckoo gave it!"
Su Ya looked at the sword in Li Jiang's hand and didn't speak, just nodded.
