Chapter 8: The Protector's Little Sword
An Ping took it in his hand suspiciously, if he was asked to choose, he would rather choose the sword, but he was embarrassed to speak. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"I'll show you my most precious thing, it's called the Protector Little Sword. Qiao Yang took out a large box from under the shelf, opened it, the big box was covered with a small box, and in the small box lay a narrow red lacquered wooden box, opened the wooden box, Qiao Yang carefully took out a short sword with a very thin sheath and inlaid with precious stones.
Qiao Yang didn't pull out the sword body, An Ping was dazzled by the luxury of the scabbard, the sheath of his blood dagger was just ordinary leather, but it was really incomparable.
"An Ping, look at your greedy for money, you have to like the gems on this sheath, I'll cut it off for you, what I want you to see is not these useless things, look at this sword!" Qiao Yang pulled out the sword from the sheath, the sword was as thin as a cicada's wings, it was translucent, but the sword body was very hard, although thin but not bent, the blade was very sharp, shining with a cold light, a little weird, when An Ping looked at the sword, the sword seemed to be full of hostility towards him, which made him feel some pain on his skin.
"Sister, this sword is so evil!" An Ping dodged to the side, not daring to look at the sword again, and the pain disappeared in an instant.
"That's right. Qiao Yang said proudly, "This sword recognizes people, as long as it is close to me, it will be on guard, because I am its master!"
"How could this happen?"
"Little loach, there are still many things you haven't seen!" Qiao Yang put the little sword on the shelf, faced An Ping and said, "You hit me." ”
"Why am I beating you?" Anping was inexplicable.
"If you want to hit me, you can just give me a gentle push. Qiao Yang smiled evilly.
An Ping pushed Qiao Yang, he pushed very lightly, because he had no intention of hurting Qiao Yang at all, but Qiao Yang screamed very exaggerated and fell to the ground. At this time, something strange happened, the little sword suddenly flew up from the shelf and stabbed straight at An Ping, who hurriedly ran to dodge. Qiao Yang laughed on the ground.
"Sister, what's going on...... Hurry up and let Xiaojian stop!" An Ping ran in circles, because the space was not large, and he was afraid of knocking down Qiao Yang's treasures on the shelf, so he hid around, and his ear was cut by Xiaojian, which made him more and more afraid, if it went on like this, Xiaojian would not give up if he didn't want his life.
"Alright. Qiao Yang saw that An Ping was injured, and the joke was a little too big, so he stood up and grabbed the hilt of the sword, and the sword was able to stop.
"What is this?" Anping was horrified.
"This sword was given to me by my grandfather, and I have been with me since I was born, and I heard that it was because when I was born, my grandfather fed me with a cup of blood, so this sword recognized me as the master. As long as someone around me hurts me, the little sword will bite until it kills that person!"
"This is too domineering, it's just a joke like just now, does it also want to protect the lord and kill people?"
"Well, this sword is not good at this, it can't recognize whether the other party is real damage or fake damage. So I didn't dare to take it with me, so I kept it in this box all the time. Later, my grandfather said that the sword can be controlled, as long as I learn the sword technique, this sword will be more useful, but I am lazy, I have studied for many years, and I only learned to catch the sword at the critical moment and not let it continue to hurt people. According to my grandfather, this sword is overkill for me, and if I become a master of swordsmanship, this sword will definitely help me be invincible in the world!" Qiao Yang compared a very handsome posture.
"It's a pity, why don't you study hard!" If the world is invincible, then no one has to be afraid, if he can do this, the first thing he will do is to go to the enemy who killed his parents to settle accounts, and let them die a miserable death! That's right, it is a miserable death, as for how miserable, he has not yet thought about it.
"Why is the eldest lady of my dignified Taiwei Mansion bothering to do anything, who would dare to bully me!"
"That's right. An Ping thought to himself, sure enough, people with good fate have the qualifications to be lazy.
"But after my grandfather passed away, I planned to practice kung fu well, I used to have my grandfather to protect me, but now I can only rely on myself. ”
"Isn't there your mother and the old lady?
"My mother is too busy to pay attention to me, the old lady has to work hard to pick a fruit, do you think she can protect me? As for my father, forget it, my daughter-in-law is not as good as the younger brothers, and my father doesn't take me seriously at all. ”
"Do you still have a younger brother?" An Ping was very strange, he had been in the Taiwei Mansion for so long, but he had never seen him.
"Not only that, but also a group of younger brothers, a group of do you understand? My father has many sons, and there are even more little wives, and now there are several with big bellies!"
An Ping was speechless, he hadn't heard of rich people taking concubines, he just couldn't understand that Guang Zong's was so beautiful and young, why did Qiao Yang's father still accept so many little wives, even if he didn't have a son for the time being, wouldn't Guang Chong still have children, it seems that the way rich people live is different.
"But although my father has a lot of little wives, the person he is most afraid of is still my mother, my mother doesn't let his concubines enter the front yard, none of them dare to enter, the old lady doesn't like my father's women, even those grandsons don't like it, not to mention Cheng Huan's knees, she doesn't want to look at it, so this front yard is quiet enough. ”
"Sister Zongzi is not wronged. An Ping thought, instead of his father taking a concubine, Shen Yifei killed An Lu with his own hands!
"Of course she is wronged, so she rarely goes back to the Taiwei Mansion now, and stays in the Nose Tower all day long. Alas, there is really no good man in this world, you have already seen my uncle's new daughter-in-law, that is Lu Lu'er, Lu Lu'er also had an aunt before, who was killed by my uncle's concubine, so this time he married a new one, my former sister-in-law died less than three months! I forgot to mention, my uncle also has many concubines, and he and my father are competing to marry a little wife! In the courtyard we passed by before, the women in it were my uncle's concubines, all of them were dusty women from the restaurant, and I felt dirty when I said something to them!"
An Ping didn't know how to answer, and he could only listen to the excitement about the family affairs of the Taiwei Mansion.
"Okay, I'm done, let's go out, but you have to keep this treasure pavilion secret from me!"
"Hmm. Sister, you're not very old, why do you have so many swords and knives?"
"Most of them were left by my grandfather, how can I have the capital to collect so many treasures! Again, those are not knives, knives are not the same as daggers! Alas......" Qiao Yang closed his treasure pavilion.
An Ping held the blood dagger in his hand, and he wanted to see if there was really anything blood-colored in the blood dagger, so he looked at the lamp on the table in the room.
"There really is!" As soon as the blood dagger was on the fire, a dark red appeared in the center of the dagger, and after a few more glances, the dark red was like a mass of liquid, and it would flow to the side if it was tilted slightly, it was strange, An Ping looked at the mouth and grinned bigger and bigger, this is really a treasure!
"You probably don't think this dagger is worth enough, here you go!"
"Jewels!" An Ping's eyes straightened, and Qiao Yang's hand was lying with red, blue, and green gems the size of quail eggs, which were the ones inlaid on the scabbard of the protector's small sword.
"Anping, what you think in your heart is all on your face, this is not good, you have to learn to hide in the future, obviously you want to be wealthy, you must pretend to be clear and look down on money like dung, obviously you want to cry in your heart, you must pretend to be happy to laugh, this is the way to survive, understand?" Qiao Yang finished and stuffed the gem into Anping's hand.
"yes, got it!"
Qiao Yang's reasoning was understood by Anping eight hundred years ago, otherwise how could he steal a passenger ship and how could he sneak into the capital, but he regarded Qiao Yang as his own person at this time, and he was not hypocritical to his own people.
"From now on, you'll sleep in the next room, and I'll have someone clean it up. I'm so sleepy, I'll go to sleep first. Qiao Yang yawned.
An Ping carefully put the gem into the purse that Qiao Yang gave him early in the morning, answered happily, and returned to the room with the dagger and purse. The high bed soft pillows, the splendid warm quilt, the fatigue of lying on the bed for many days hit, and An Ping fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
I slept until noon on the next day, and I woke up when I smelled the tempting aroma of the food. He opened his eyes and saw a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas on the table in the room, and Qiao Yang was pouring himself a drink in front of the table.
"Sister, you won't call me when it's dawn!" An rolled up to the table like a screen.
"You're so embarrassed, I've called you hundreds of times, I can't see that you can really sleep! Eat, there is a happy event this morning, your sister and I are happy!"
"What's the happy event?"
"There are dead people in the Taiwei Mansion, and a bunch of people have died, and they are still a bunch of people I hate very much, which is really happy!"
"Dead ...... Someone?"
How can a dead person be said to be a happy event, is Qiao Yang frightened and confused!
"Well, last night, my father's concubine and my uncle's concubine all died violently overnight! Qiao Yang picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"Ah...... How many people would have to die?"
"Thirty-seven! My father's twenty-three concubines and my uncle's fourteen concubines are all dead!"
"Mom!" An Ping's chopsticks slipped from his hand, although he had also seen dead people, but so many deaths at once really made him shudder.
"And that's not counting my younger siblings who didn't have time to be born. ”
"Can you find out who did it?"
"Who checks? This matter is a family affair of the Taiwei Mansion, and it is impossible to report it to the official, my father got up early in the morning and ordered that no one should spread it to the outside world, otherwise his life would be lost. It's strange to say, my father stayed in a concubine's house last night, and he didn't realize that the concubine died next to his pillow! Later, he found that all the concubines were dead, and he didn't panic, guess what my father said?"
"What?"
"My dad said, as long as the sons are still there, women, find a few more fresh ones!"
"Could it be that your father killed them because he disliked those concubines?"
"Haha...... It seems that there is this possibility, but my father can't do anything but be an official, it's okay to ask him to shoot a mosquito to death, forget it about killing, he doesn't have the strength. ”
"What about your uncle?
"The brothers were born to a mother, what difference could there be, he was very calm, and ordered someone to throw the body into the mass grave, and then accompanied his deer and deer. ”
"Thirty-seven mouths...... So much...... How did they all die?"
"Anping, you seem to be very interested. ”
"Hey...... I'm curious. As he said he was curious, he was more afraid than scared, and An Ping decided to leave the Taiwei Mansion!
