Chapter Twenty-Four: The Golden Axe

Let's just say that more than ten years ago, the deserted market became more and more prosperous, and those thieves with rare treasures did not dare to come here to show their heads again, and in recent years, the soldiers of a military camp were stationed in the long-abandoned Tuchengguan, and those thieves dared to come out in this deserted market. It is also ridiculous to say, the thieves never seem to be afraid of officers and soldiers, but prefer places where there are officers and soldiers, there are officers and soldiers here to maintain order, and they are not afraid of the enemy to seek revenge, and because of these officers and soldiers, the dirty business in the underground is also more powerful, not to mention those bad treasures appear here again, there are also some slaves who have been gouged out their eyes and ears, and castrated yin people are also on the stalls in this deserted market, and there are also delicate children and beautiful girls who are not known where they have been fetched and are also marked with higher prices on the stalls here. Of course, it is a hidden stall, and those who do not know how to do it will never be able to touch the door.

Sima Weiguang and the three of them wandered around in this deserted city, experiencing the excitement around them. The liveliness of this deserted city can be different from the bustle of the downtown in the Central Plains city, there is no pink beauty, and there is no family shopping with children, most of the people walking around are fierce and vicious, flashing sinister eyes everywhere, even some women are mostly fierce, making people always cringe when they see it. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she doesn't dare to take a few more looks.

Sima Weiguang felt uncomfortable for a while, and he still looked around. At this time, the three of them were walking to a place where ancient books and classics were sold, and Zhao Wang couldn't help but squat down and rummage, but there were a few three-character classics, mountain and sea classics, and some poetry collections of the Tang Dynasty, and there was nothing special.

Sima Weiguang also rummaged through the search and still didn't see any special bibliography, and suddenly heard Liu Tong next to him say, "There is a weapon spectrum over there, Gongzi can go and see it together." Sima Weiguang looked over there, but it was not a small shop, so he got up and went over with Liu, "Brother Zhao, you watch here first." Then Zhao Wang looked over there, he didn't have any interest in weapons, so he continued to rummage through these books.

The weapons shop is really not small, and the weapons and equipment sold are also various, swords, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, all kinds of weapons, and there are more rare things, small darts and hidden weapons, hidden burdens, crutches. Liu Tong and Sima Weiguang were stunned. But he said that the shopkeeper was an old man who looked very arrogant, sitting high on a flowered wooden chair, looking at them with disdain.

Liu Tong took a fancy to a big axe, weighed it in his hand, and the weight was not clear, he liked it very much, and looked up and asked the old man, "How did you sell this axe?"

The old man looked at him, but did not speak, but looked to the side, as if he had not heard the buyer speak to him.

Liu Tong pursed his eyebrows and said to Sima Weiguang, "This old man is deaf?"

Sima Weiguang said, "It's not like, looking at him with a spirit, but like he has a very good eye, ears and eyes." ”

The old man laughed when he heard this, "This kid can talk!" Then he looked at Liu Tong again and said, "This axe is not for sale!"

Liu Tong made a straight face and said, "What's the matter with your axe being put here and not selling?"

The old man snorted from his nostrils, "My axe is only sold to those who have made it, and I see that you are still close." ”

Liu Tong laughed, "You old man also underestimates people, why am I bad?"

The old man pointed to the middle of the road, "There is a big poplar tree, you go and cut it down to see how you can move?"

Liu Tong's laughter was louder, and he picked up the axe and went to the bottom of the big poplar tree, but he saw that there were already many scars on the poplar tree, and he thought that he had been cut down, "Okay, look at me to give you a deep one!"

Liu Tong shouted, raised the axe and slammed it up, but he didn't want the axe to sink so much, and it fell down before it hit the tree. Many people around had already stopped to watch, waiting to see the joke, and they all laughed out loud at this time, "It's a kid who has no ability, and he dares to pick the old man's big axe!"

Liu Tong's face turned red, and he checked the axe again, but it was not as heavy as just now. Sima Weiguang walked up to him at this time and said to him, "There is something strange about this axe, return it quickly." As he spoke, he took the axe from Liu Tong's hand and sent it to the old man's stall.

The old man laughed, "Can this boy also give it a try?"

Sima Weiguang said, "I can't even try this axe, it's not available to us ordinary people." ”

The old man put away his smile, "Why can't it be used by ordinary people?"

Sima Weiguang said, "I have heard that there is a kind of golden axe, which is made of a magnetic metal that can surge and change, if you can't master the characteristics of this metal, no one can control it, but if you can master it, then it will be very powerful to use, and the city wall can also be chiseled open." This golden axe is rare!"

When Liu Tong heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, "I've also heard of this guy, not to mention that the metal in this axe is surging and changing, and the power of heaven and earth stirred up by this axe is also surging and changing, and the power is infinite." ”

The old man turned his face even more, looked at the two men, said no more, and looked away, as if there were no two men in front of him.

Sima Weiguang thought that this old man was really interesting, and said to Liu Tong, "These weapons are not something we can use, let's look elsewhere." ”

was about to turn around and leave, but saw a person walking from the front, this person had an ordinary face, nothing special, only those white eyes, but Sima Weiguang thought about where he had seen it. Looking at the white-eyed person again, it seemed that he had also seen Sima Weiguang, and suddenly his expression was abnormal, and he turned around and left.

Sima Weiguang hurriedly called Liu Tong behind him, "I seem to know that person, you go and follow, Brother Zhao and I are waiting for you here." ”

Liu Tong also saw that the person was special, agreed, and hurriedly followed.

Seeing that Liu Tong had walked away, Sima Weiguang was still pondering in his heart, and when he saw a few officers and soldiers walking in front of him, he suddenly remembered in his heart that the white eye was one of the five officers and soldiers who had been poisoned and died in the Beiguancheng military camp and were rescued. Should he have gone with the army to the mountain, and should have been destroyed by the terrible fire?

Sima Weiguang was still thinking that the officers and soldiers who came in front of him had already walked past him and stopped in front of the old man's weapons shop.

One of them said very politely, "Seller, I heard that you have a very powerful axe here, and our uncle wants to give it a try." ”

Sima Weiguang was very curious when he heard this, so he looked back and saw that the first of the several officers and soldiers was a thin but sturdy middle-aged man, wearing a thin gown, who was blown by the cold wind but did not feel cold. Look at that posture, it's probably their uncle. Looking at him again, he doesn't look like he is very powerful, and if he thinks about it and doesn't rely on strength to hold an axe, can that person be able to control it?

The old man, still looking at them with disdain, looked away as if he had not seen anyone in front of him.

The middle-aged man in the lead looked at the weapons, and walked to the front of the gold axe, it was Sima Weiguang who had just put the axe there, Sima Weiguang saw him pick up the axe, put it on the mat, and said to the old man, "It seems that this is it, that poplar tree has also suffered a few axes, not to me this time, can I take it and try it?"

The old man glanced at him, and a smug expression came out again, and only two words came out of his mouth, "Take it." ”

The middle-aged man took the axe and walked under the poplar tree.

There was already another group of people around, and several bosses next to him also looked there, all waiting to see his jokes.
