Chapter Seventy-Seven: Slaying the Dragon
It's a pity that the gate of space can't be opened in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and every time I go from Qinling County to Nanping City, the time is wasted on the road. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, the horse he borrowed from the Lin Mansion was not bad, reaching a speed of 40 kilometers per hour, and only three hours later, Yang Xiao arrived at Nanping City.
On the way, Yang Xiao encountered several waves of chaotic people, and slaughtered a few eyeless scum, otherwise time would have been faster.
At this time, he coveted the steel suit very much, if there is an iron man's suit, if he walks directly in a straight line from Qinling County to Nanping City, it will be a whoosh, and it is estimated that it will take less than two minutes.
Now that Iron Man has not yet been born, there is no way to talk about the Iron Suit, but the Green Goblin has already appeared, and his glider seems to be good, and it is a pretty good means of transportation.
Therefore, the plot of Spider-Man 3 must not be missed, not only to save Spider-Man and gain fame, but also to establish a deep friendship with the little Green Goblin Harry, and it is also negotiable to borrow a set of gliders to play at that time.
Yang Xiao came to Nanping City and found that the garrison at the gate of the city had been significantly strengthened, and even he, a martial artist of the sixth-layer realm of the day after tomorrow, had to be interrogated, fortunately he had the guard commander token of the Lin Mansion, and the captain of the city guard happened to have a little friendship with the Lin Mansion, so he didn't embarrass him and let him enter the city directly.
Coming into the city, I feel that the flow of people on the road seems to be more than last time, people are in a hurry, the atmosphere seems to be a lot more tense, he inquired, only to learn that the relationship between the original feudal country and the Qi country in the east has been tense recently, and the current army is mobilized, Nanping City, as the capital city closest to the Qi country, is undoubtedly the top priority, whether it is the city guard or patrol have been upgraded to wartime security.
However, the people of Nanping City did not panic too much when they talked about this matter, after all, the feudal state and the Qi country have been entangled since the beginning of the founding of the country, and there is no law when they fight, and there is no law to say that this battle can be fought or not, even if it really starts, it is very likely that the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and the military strength of the two sides is tested on the border, and then it is the compromise and exchange of interests.
The people of Nanping City have long been accustomed to it, but the people who do business in the countryside are somewhat worried, if the two countries are really at war, then their goods can still be transported normally?
Although Yang Xiao also has a toothpaste business, it is mainly operated by the Lin family, and with the relationship behind the Lin Mansion, it doesn't matter if he walks sideways in Nanping Mansion, so he didn't take it too seriously, and went straight to Xuanbao Pavilion without stopping.
When he came to Xuanbao Pavilion, Yang Xiao was not polite, and directly mentioned Bai Zhongting's name, the white-clothed man who bought the toothpaste formula from him, but unfortunately Bai Zhongting happened to be absent today, and it seemed that he couldn't go through the back door, but it didn't matter, because he had spent more than 1 million taels of silver tickets in Xuanbao Pavilion, so the current VIP card has also been automatically upgraded to 3 stars.
According to the rules of Xuanbao Pavilion, 3-star VIPs are already qualified to enter the fourth floor, as we all know, the quality of goods in Xuanbao Pavilion is increasing layer by layer, and the first floor is full of ordinary public goods, such as pills, spiritual treasures, and martial arts cheats are naturally the lowest.
The second floor is a little smaller, but all the items on display are more precious and rare than those on the first floor, and of course the price is higher.
Yang Xiao had already visited these two floors, and now he was going to the third and fourth floors to take a look.
The layout of the third floor is different from the second floor, it seems that each floor has a style, if the hall on the first floor is a vegetable market, then the second floor is a supermarket, and the third floor has become a franchise store.
Although it is also divided into several large areas, each area is self-contained and completely isolated, with exhibition halls, lounges, and negotiation areas.
The quality of the service staff here is obviously higher than that of the bottom, and the cultivation is also higher, just because the people who come to this level are basically high-level and above martial artists, the flow of people is naturally greatly reduced, and because people talk gently, politely and orderly, it looks extraordinarily quiet.
The space on the third floor was half smaller than the second floor, and Yang Xiao spent a few minutes walking around this floor, and with the function of the second mastermind, he remembered all the items and directions sold on this floor in his mind, among which there were several pills that caught his attention, so let's write them down for the time being.
Then he walked up to the fourth layer, but there were only a few people on this floor, Yang Xiao took a look, and there was no one he could see the cultivation, all of them were unfathomable, all of them were innate martial artists, and even the attendants were martial artists above the fourth layer of the acquired realm!
Yang Xiao's arrival seemed to bring a little surprise to several customers on the fourth floor, especially one of the old men in black with gloomy eyes, he was no more than one meter seven, his eye sockets were deep, his skin was old, his five fingers were as thin as chicken feet, but he flashed the color of gold and iron, and it was strange that he was still wearing a heavy black burqa on a hot day, which was really strange.
Yang Xiao ignored their strange eyes, no matter how high your skill is, you can't make a move at will in the Xuanbao Pavilion, everyone looks at their own goods, no one hinders anyone, on the other hand, the increase in strength brought by the system is also where he can look at these innate powerhouses at a glance.
Yang Xiao began to buy goods by himself, in his perception, at first, there were about three or five eyes roaming behind him, but after a few breaths, most of the eyes were withdrawn, but there was still a more obscure gaze that kept locking on him.
This is an instinct given to him by the glimpse of the floating light, he can feel the hostile gaze, and then he pretends to turn back inadvertently, and happens to meet the sight of the old man in black robe, the other party does not hide the resentment and hatred in his eyes, Yang Xiao is like falling into an ice cave for a moment, it feels like being targeted by a poisonous snake when he was a child, dangerous and deadly.
After the two looked at each other for a second, the old man showed a silent evil smile and turned to go downstairs, but Yang Xiao's mind could not be calmed for a long time.
Who is this old man, he doesn't know him at all, how can he be so hostile to himself?
Yang Xiao didn't understand, and he didn't have time to think about it, after leaving a vigilance in his heart, he continued to buy the goods he needed, and when he walked to the weapons area, a black knife in the last row of display cases against the wall attracted his attention.
This is an ancient Tang knife with a slender blade, the knife is three feet long and two inches wide, the knife body is jet black, only the blade is an open bright silver line, the handle is nine inches long, and the knife body is integrated, tied with a dark red cloth, sweat absorption, non-slip, and the feel is very good.
Yang Xiao picked up the knife at the signal of the waiter, and the second master quickly calculated the weight - seventy-seven pounds and seven taels, good guy, it is indeed worthy of being cast by meteorite iron outside the sky, this weight is almost ten times that of the average blade of the same size, and then Yang Xiao tried the sharpness of this knife, an iron rod the thickness of a thumb, falling freely from a height of one meter, and directly splitting into two when encountering the blade!
This knife almost meets all of Yang Xiao's imagination, whether it is appearance or quality, he likes it very much.
Therefore, even if the price of this knife was as high as 880,000 taels of silver, Yang Xiao did not hesitate to choose to take it.
This knife was cast by Ouyang Jue, the most prestigious sword-casting master thirty years ago, with a piece of extraterrestrial meteoric iron, which took nine hundred and eighty-one days to complete, but it is a pity that this knife is impossible to attach any formation star map or rune because of its repulsive spirituality of extraterrestrial meteorite, and it is destined to be difficult to become a spiritual weapon, so it has never been published, and Ouyang Jue even buried it on the shore of the Qi River.
Fortunately, Ouyang Jue's descendants were enough to lose, so they dug up this knife and sold it to unscrupulous merchants, and finally came to the display case of Xuanbao Pavilion after many hands.
880,000 taels can already buy a medium-quality spiritual weapon, the reason why it can be sold at such a high price is because of the rarity of its materials, and secondly, because of Ouyang Jue's fame.
Under the abundance of innate true qi, the power that the spirit weapon can emit is definitely not comparable to ordinary blades, so although the quality of this knife is high, it has always been rarely cared for, and the innate martial artists can't look down on it, and the acquired martial artists can't afford it.
After all, even if the person who can go to the fourth floor of the Xuanbao Pavilion is not an innate powerhouse, he is also the peak of the day after tomorrow, and he can cross to the innate in one step, so why bother to buy a blade that is only useful for the acquired martial artist?
Yang Xiao has no worries about this, because of the relationship between cultivating the "Innate Hidden Truth", he estimates that he will have to stay in the acquired realm for a while to lay a solid foundation, so this knife can be regarded as filling a huge gap in his strength now, even if he doesn't need it in the future, he can pass this knife to his apprentices or subordinates.
Since he bought a knife, Yang Xiao naturally took on the responsibility of naming this knife, so a knife name with a strong fantasy color came into being - slaying the dragon!
